Bonaire sat on his desk and his face was ashen as he listened to the screams outside, "How did it get so far?"
"Get rid of Lazarus!"
He heard the protest again, ringing constantly in his brain and got up.
Going towards the window, he looked through it and sighed, "How could this have escalated so quickly?"
From Bonaire's view, he saw a few students standing in front of the council building. They were protesting while showing a few large boards with Lazarus's na cut off in red.
"Get rid of Lazarus!"
"Rid Off!"
"Rid Off!"
"A Murderer Lazarus!
"Murderer!"
"Murderer!"
"Get rid of Lazarus!"
"Rid of-"
Bonaire looked away as he thought of his friend, 'How could you do that Lazarus?"
A Week Ago…
"Mr. Wilson! How many tis do I have to instruct you about your loud behavior?"
"Sorry, Longbottom sir! It won't happen again." Wilson apologized.
Longbottom sighed seeing the earnest apology, "You say that, but I know you'll forget it probably in the next minute."
anwhile I see sothing else that enlightens . A few student were sneakily looking at and murmuring about Lazarus.
They were talking about the mistreatnt I got from Lazarus and how he got out of it without any repercussions. Seeing them I feel sothing roaming in my mind before it flashed.
'Shiiiiit… I just got a plan.'
I slap, Wilson's back, awakening him, "Thanks for the aweso idea, Wilson."
"Huh? Idea?" Wilson did not understand what I ant, "What are you talking about?"
I don't explain it to him, "And as a reward, I'll take you to my restaurant today and we'll eat at."
"at!" Wilson said, he's eyes shining with light. But then they quickly left as he said, "How about instead of a-"
"No orphanage today, I already gave them so money earlier, today it's all about at."
Hearing that Henry already helped anyway, Wilson let at pervade his mind.
"Hehe… since you say."
"But first can you do a quick favor?"
"What?" Wilson asked.
…
We got out of the carriage and Wilson whistled in astonishnt at the environnt, "Woah! This is your restaurant, Henry? It's amazing!"
What other place I would suggest other than FOOD!
"Let's go!" I say and we get in.
While I ignored the two maid's introduction, Wilson didn't even care to give them a look.
Which was suspicious as hell to … any guy would have jumped the gun and either smiled or blushed at them but he did neither.
'Now that I think about it… he never really showed interest in won back in the novel too. I always thought because he was a nice guy, but this is too suspicious.'
'Could it be that he plays in the othe-' I shake my head, getting rid of the thought.
I ca here for an important job; I won't let a thought like that get in now.
"Welco Milord." Noku greeted us, "I have already prepared a room for you."
She took us up and put us into a private room. Giving our orders, she left and I waited for a mont.
"Oh! Wilson, I forget sothing."
"What? Is it your wallet?"
"…no. It's not that." Even though he had an innocent look, sotis it just angers , "I have an important thing to do, so I can't eat right now."
"Alright then, let's go." Wilson said getting up.
"Let finish first." I put him down, "I have a thing but it would only take a mont. So you order and eat until I co back."
"No, it's okay. I can go with you too. It's better to eat together than not." Wilson said, making it sowhat difficult for .
"But we already ordered and I can't cancel it. Why don't you eat on ahead and let go outside for a while?" I say, getting up, "I already put it on my tab so if I sohow take it too long then you can just go."
"Alright then, I'll wait for a while." Wilson said and I got out, only to find Noku standing guard.
"Sir, your other guest is here." She opened the door opposite to where Wilson was.
I get in and sit down as she closed the door.
"I heard you had sothing important to tell ." Ulvicor said, "Is it so important that you have to call right after we had a eting yesterday… this might increase in getting caught."
"I already have an alibi; you just need to make sure yours stick true." I say and look at the empty table. "What happened? So scared that you didn't even order today."
He smiled, "No no, it's just I already ate yesterday, so thought it be better if I waite-"
"Knock!" "Knock!"
"Sir, your large blue crab that you ordered before has arrived." Ca the voice of the waiter, standing outside.
I look back at Ulvicor as he smiled awkwardly, "Haha… you said you wanted to talk about sothing?"
…
"Hadt It e intderting kadi (That is an interesting idea), hugy go thik daht bud bork (do you think that would work?)" Ulvicor said as he ate the blue crab like he never ate anything so delicious before.
Looking at him like this, do I have trust in him?... no.
Will the plan work… I don't think so.
But will it work because I made the plan… Yeah, it will.
"You're gonna have to make sure that it works… otherwise, those crabs wouldn't just go in you and co out free of charge." I smile, "I'm gonna rip it out of the reputation that you and your family built so far."
"Cough" He drank water and stabilized himself and smiled, "Of course I'll do it. Have a bit of faith in , Henry."
"Mr. Tax"
"Mr. Tax" He repeated back.
I give a long hard look at him before getting up, "Eat slowly, I don't need you dying at my restaurant."
"Thanks for worrying about , see you later." He licked my boots even as I closed the door.
With three faced people like Ulvoric, you would have to double down and sotis show who's the boss, otherwise it doesn't work.
Sliding open the door, I find Wilson watching the still hot large piece of at in agony.
"Henry!"
Seeing , his eyes turned into stars and he smiled greatly.
"What are you doing? Why haven't you touched the food yet?"
"Well, you weren't here so, I was feeling guilty about eating without you. But now that you are here and the at's still hot, Let's Feast!" He said showing a cannibalistic smile and grabbing knifes in both hand.
'Wilson… you might be quite a stupid friend… but you're the nice friend that's extrely stupid.'
I smile, grabbing the appropriate spoons, "Eat all you want, I already ordered seconds!"
"YEAHHH!"
…
The Next Day
Wilson and I were running in the academy. After parting a bit last night and accidentally drinking so booze, we got up late in the morning to see we were late for class.
"Man, Mrs. Longbottom's going to scream at again." Wilson said.
"Don't worry… with by your side, I'll explain the situation to her."
"You will, thanks!" Wilson smiled, "Mrs. Longbottom always listens to you so she'll leave alone this ti."
'Of course, she would.'
I smile, thinking about that longbottom of hers that I tappe-
"Arghh! Help , I'm going to die!"
