Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
It was around 5:30 pm, Kimura Kazuki purposely checked the ti before making the call. The comic con would only end at 6 pm, so Muraoka Hiroshi should still be in Akihabara Square.
“Kimura Kazuki?” Muraoka Hiroshi sounded a bit tired as he had been in the UDX Building of Akihabara Square since early this morning.
“How are you, Mr. Muraoka Hiroshi?” Kimura Kazuki paused for a while and said in an apologetical tone, “Did I disturb you?”
“Not at all, I am resting in the lounge now. The comic con is soon coming to an end.” Muraoka Hiroshi burst out laughing. “Your fans really miss you. They are searching for you, but I told them you had already gone ho through the back door. They keep pestering about where you went, but rest assured that I have not disclosed anything to them.”
Muraoka Hiroshi did not imdiately ask why Kimura Kazuki had phoned him. Instead, he tried to make small talk with him first.
This was because Ono Nakamura woke up an hour ago, and the first thing he did was to get on the phone with Muraoka Hiroshi to ask about Kimura Kazuki. According to Ono Nakamura, the strength of Kimura Kazuki might surpass his father, and he might have been qualified to duel with his grandfather.
Muraoka Hiroshi was puzzled. The grandfather of Ono Nakamura was already 89 years old. When Muraoka Hiroshi attended the birthday celebration of Ono Nakamura’s grandfather last year, he looked old and weak while Kimura Kazuki was very young. It was apparent that Kimura was definitely much stronger than the grandfather. From the looks of it, the grandfather of Ono Nakamura could pass away even by the slightest push from just anyone.
In the end, Ono Nakamura only replied, “You do not understand, Muraoka Hiroshi.”
Muraoka Hiroshi was speechless, but he did not have the contact details of Kimura Kazuki. He regretted that he only kept Kimura Kazuki’s na card, but not his contact details.
Ono Nakamura was upset with his brother-in-law too. He had spent 25,000 yen, yet he did not even have Kimura Kazuki’s contact details.
Who knew that Kimura Kazuki made the first move to call Muraoka Hiroshi. Despite Muraoka Hiroshi being tired, he managed to gather his energy for this.
Muraoka Hiroshi wanted to have a quick chat, but Kimura Kazuki seed to have no ti for him, he smiled and asked, “Mr. Muraoka, I am calling you to check on sothing.”
“Go ahead,” Muraoka Hiroshi answered swiftly, “I will tell you everything I know as long as it does not involve any sensitive content.” Though Muraoka Hiroshi did not fully understand the aning behind Ono Nakamura’s words, he knew that Kimura Kazuki had mastered his skills in kendo at such a young age, so he would definitely be soone exceptional in the coming days.
“It is about a cosplayer,” Kimura Kazuki said, “I ca across a lady cosplayer when I was walking around in Akihabara Square during the afternoon.” Kimura Kazuki described the clothing of that lady he t in detail.
“Are you... trying to find her?” Muraoka Hiroshi gave him a peculiar look, and said, “My advice is for you to not approach her. She is gorgeous because she’s expensive. This is the kind of lady who depends on cosplaying to find value, she has disrupted the market price in Akihabara. If you really want to try sothing new, you can find two days later, and I will bring you to another place.”
Muraoka Hiroshi knew that young people were usually energetic, especially soone like Kimura Kazuki. Frankly speaking, he envied him.
“What?” Kimura Kazuki was a bit confused, what was Muraoka Hiroshi talking about? “I have so questions to clarify... That is why I need to find her.”
Muraoka Hiroshi was getting awkward... was he misreading Kimura Kazuki’s mind? But he continued to ask, “Mr. Kimura Kazuki, I thought you are looking for so sweet alone ti with her.” Muraoka Hiroshi was very straightforward this round.
Kimura Kazuki was stunned for a bit, he did not know if he should find it funny or annoying. “Mr. Muraoka Hiroshi, it’s not what you think, I only need her to clarify so things for .” Kimura Kazuki was taken aback. He knew that the lady wore revealing clothing, but he didn’t think that she would be doing that kind of ‘job’ too.
“I see.” Muraoka Hiroshi smiled awkwardly. “I am not her manager, I knew her through one of my friends. I will call them and find out for you.”
“Cool.”
Ten minutes later, Kimura Kazuki had already got on the tram and was ready to go ho.
In the tram, he received a call from Muraoka Hiroshi.
“Mr. Kimura Kazuki, I am sorry to inform you that Reina has changed her contact.” Muraoka Hiroshi explained. “She’s the girl that you’re looking for, and Reina is just one of her nicknas. I hearsay that this lady always changes her na to avoid getting caught by the police.”
In Japan, there were legal brothels. Hence, people like Reina, who did it secretly, will have trouble making a living.
Kimura Kazuki was disappointed. With the last trace of hope, he asked, “So, Mr. Muraoka Hiroshi, do you happen to know her real na?”
“Yes, I did ask just now. Reina’s real na is Takamatsu Rieko.”
Rieko?
Sunny... Do not believe Rieko... She is lying... lying...
Kimura Kazuki was astounded, it was as if he could hear the voice of that old man in his head once again. Kimura Kazuki still did not know the old man’s na, as the old man was trapped in Sun and Moon Sword till now. As the old man had not been freed from the sword, Kimura Kazuki had not been hearing him saying this for quite so ti.
Would both of them be the sa person? Though the chances were slim, Kimura Kazuki thought this could be the ‘key’ to solving the puzzle. However, Chiyoko and Rieko had different surnas and seed to be unrelated to each other.
On the other hand, he also knew that Takamatsu Reiko was married, and this gave him hope. According to the Japanese culture, besides uxorilocal marriage, won had to follow the surna of their husbands after getting married.
“I see...” As he was contemplating, Kimura Kazuki finally voiced out in embarrassnt, “Can you please send her photos, Mr. Muraoka Hiroshi?”
“Sure.” Takamatsu Reiko readily agreed without asking too much.
After receiving and comparing the two photos, Kimura Kazuki was surprised, both of them looked exactly alike. Not only their temperants and their physical appearances but also the details on their facial structures...
Compared to Nishiyama Chiyoko, Takamatsu Reiko was prettier and looked more lovely. It seed that he needed to find an opportunity to visit Level 11 of Tower 15 to get more information tonight.
It did not matter whether they were related, Kimura Kazuki still needed to dig deeper. In the past few days, the old man was trying to tell Sunny that Rieko was a liar. In other words, this obsession might be a ssage.
Maybe, if this obsession of his ended, he could try to explore the problems.
