Shirakawa Sawahei glanced up, noticing that the expression of the little girl indeed began to look a bit strange. Without wasting ti asking why, he swiftly made his way through the crowd, step by step moving towards the little girl under the surprised gazes of many.
However, his speed seed no match for Asano Nazuki standing up. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the hostess of the banquet stood and interrupted Slater’s speech.
"I say, could you wait a mont?"
Still late by a step.
Asano Nazuki’s eyes were full of disdain, and although she was small and adorable in stature, the words she spoke at this mont were completely unfit for her sweet appearance.
"Initially, I thought your musical prowess was that of a master, but it turns out that you’re just a guy fishing for fa."
The second sentence of the little girl’s volu wasn’t high, almost as if she were talking to herself. Among those present, it seed only Shirakawa Sawahei, who had just arrived by her side, and Slater not far away heard her.
After saying these words, Asano Nazuki turned and left without another word. Master Slater’s nephew, who was also the translator, naturally understood the little girl’s words. He beca furious and wanted to rush over for an explanation, but to his surprise, the young girl suddenly ran off, catching him off guard.
Having no choice, Shirakawa Sawahei exchanged a glance with Hayakawa Kashi and then set off to chase after Asano Nazuki.
George Slater slowly posed a question mark.
He looked at the translator nephew beside him, who could only wipe the cold sweat and tell his uncle that his good student... seed to have run away...
The reason for running away was unclear; it sounded like she had so opinions about him...
So, why on earth would you secretly badmouth Hayakawa Kashi? Even though there are rumors outside that these sisters don’t get along, they are, at the very least, real sisters!
Even secretly badmouthing is still badmouthing! Don’t think that a sarcastic tone won’t get you into trouble! Well, now you’re getting your just deserts!
After this incident, Hayakawa Kashi did not continue to hide in the crowd. She quickly stepped onto the front stage of the banquet hall, first briefly communicating and calming down George Slater, and then turning around to take charge of the scene.
Asano Fūsei? This guy confidently believed that his daughter could handle this situation, said nothing, and leisurely went to prepare to drink.
Alas, the awkwardness between daughters is a worry too... Better let them solve it themselves~
...
Asano Nazuki left the banquet hall and wound through the paths quickly disappearing from sight. Shirakawa Sawahei, seeing the unfamiliar terrain, couldn’t help but feel a bit of a headache.
With his photographic mory, he recalled the path as he observed carefully looking for the little girl’s figure to appear at the next corner.
When he finally got through the pathway and saw the gate he had entered from, he found that the little girl had already gotten into a car and was disappearing in a cloud of dust, making him feel a bit glum and prompting him to call Hayakawa Kashi.
"The girl ran off, and I don’t have a car."
"Got it."
The brief and direct conversation between the two showcased no unnecessary dragging. He waited briefly at the gate, and a car soon pulled up in front of him.
"Are you Mr. Shirakawa? Please get in the car."
The efficiency of Miss Kaori’s arrangents was astonishing; less than a minute after hanging up, a dedicated car had already arrived on-site. Shirakawa Sawahei didn’t waste words and got in the car, saying, "Driver, follow that car ahead..."
The driver in a black suit looked at the deserted road ahead and remained silent for a while...
"Which car?"
The atmosphere on-site suddenly beca a bit awkward.
So watching too many cop movies really isn’t a good thing.
"... Just drive first, we’ll speak if we co across it..."
The two drove along the avenue for a while until they got close to the downtown main road, where Shirakawa Sawahei suddenly noticed the car’s plate number that the little girl was on just ahead, seemingly intending to pull over.
"That’s the one!"
As the car ca to a slight stop, Shirakawa Sawahei imdiately opened the door and rushed out. Seeing this, the Black Hearted Lolita clearly had the trend of wanting to run away from ho. Whether he could save a bewildered girl depended on his speed.
Of course, here we refer to his running speed...
However, when he dashed over, he discovered that there was only a driver in the car, with no sign of the little girl.
"Where is Miss Nazuki?"
The driver originally intended to park and buy so gum to chew—his craving for cigarettes had hit, but he couldn’t smoke while working, so he had to endure it this way. Seeing Shirakawa Sawahei rushing over, he thought he got caught slacking and nervously said, "You are..."
"I’m a friend of Miss Kaori, here to find her and take her back. When did she get out of the car?"
"...Just now..."
"Did she say where she was going?"
"No...Miss Nazuki didn’t say anything the whole way..."
With this information, it seed still impossible to find the little girl who had suddenly bolted. Shirakawa Sawahei pondered and decided to call Hayakawa Kashi.
"Hayakawa, do you know if Asano has any place she likes to go? Like when she’s upset, she’d definitely go there."
"Do you think this is a TV drama?" On the other end of the call, Hayakawa Kashi’s tone was sowhat odd: "If Nazuki was that naive, I wouldn’t have to look for her."
"You’re sisters, at least you should know what she likes?"
The Little Arrogant pondered for a mont and slowly said, "Children’s amusent park?"
"..."
"How long has it been since you went out with your sister?"
"I forgot."
"Alright, alright, pretend I didn’t ask. I’m going to look for her."
Saying this, Shirakawa Sawahei helplessly hung up the phone. No wonder the little girl and the Little Arrogant would frequently clash; having such a sister would surely exacerbate sibling discord.
Of course, the Black Hearted Little Girl was no saint either.
After berating both sides, Shirakawa Sawahei had the drivers leave first. He then went alone to the secret hideout that Asano Nazuki ntioned before—a hotel-style apartnt he visited when checking on the injured little girl.
If what she said was true, that place was her personal spot, which ant Shirakawa couldn’t bring the Hayakawa family driver there. Otherwise, Asano Nazuki might go on a rampage upon eting him.
With that thought, he quickly arrived at the apartnt entrance...
However, he soon discovered a sad truth.
According to the managent system of the apartnt, without the help of a resident to verify his identity...he, as a stranger, couldn’t even get through the main gate of the floor!
Darn it, last ti it was the little girl who helped with the verification, and calling her now would be as hard as climbing to the sky.
Rich people’s lives are really troubleso!
Shirakawa Sawahei paced around outside for a while, contemplating his options until he decided to give it a try and see if the manager rembered him.
Whether it would work out or not, there was no harm in trying.
