🕑 Added 2021-04-28 15:38:05 +0000 UTCTheir orders arrived, both of them started to eat it, honestly, it tasted better than they originally thought it would be.
"The food here is not bad…" Kyōka commented.
Kyle nodded in agreement. "Yeah, maybe we could eat here next time."
Hearing his words, she grinned and replied. "Are you implying that we're going to have another date?"
"Who knows?" He gave her a slight smile.
Kyōka pouted, she was a bit disappointed because he didn't give her a clear answer, however, she was sure that this wasn't going to be their last one.
After they ate their fill, both of them took out their credit card.
"Kyōka I'll pay."
"No, I'll pay."
"I insist."
"It's pretty cheap, so I'll pay."
"....You know what, let's just pay for each other's food, because I have a feeling that this would continue for a long time if we don't stop this pointless argument."
".... Somehow I feel the same too, let's do that then."
They paid for their own after that, as they were about to stand up from their seat, suddenly a person called Kyle.
"Wait! You the guy over there."
Kyle looked at the person who called him, he was a bit surprised to know that the person who called him is someone he knows! At least back in his previous life, it was Hayasaka Ai, the personal butler of Kaguya!
Still, he was curious as to why did she call him over, he asked. "Yes? What do you need?"
Ai approached him, she slammed their table and exclaimed. "Don't lie, you're the one that rode a black motorcycle from before right? The one that almost crashed into my employer car?"
Her action gained quite an attention, but the people quickly forgot about it, however, Hayasaka's friends reacted differently from the rest.
"W-what had gotten into her?"
"Who knows never seen Hayasaka acting like this!"
Ai finally recognized Kyle from the corner of her memory, it was the incident that she couldn't forget. No even if she wanted to forget about it she can't because the mysterious disappearance of Kyle was repeating inside her mind, because that wasn't logical at all the motorcycle should have been crashed into them but it didn't, she tried to investigate that very incident however, she didn't get a single clue, except that she remembered the driver's face which Kyle.
The reason she had a hard time recognizing him is that his appearance changed a lot, so it was already surprising that she could still recognize him!
Listening to her, he immediately remembered that incident, it was back when he delivered his 3rd delivery, he thought. 'It was them? If she's inside that car then Kaguya should be there too, still, it's surprising that she could recognize me...what an excellent memory she has…'
"That's right it's me." Instead of denying it, he admitted that it was him, but before she could reply he added.
"But then so what? Are you going to report me to the police?" He asked.
"Wait, Kyle, you almost got into an accident?"
"Well, not really...it wasn't considered as one."
"I don't understand what you're trying to say, but if you get caught by the police I can bail you out easily."
"Hey! You're making me look like I'm a criminal or something, I swear to God that I didn't do anything that broke the law." He smiled wryly at her.
"Is that so? My bad then, but if you ever get involved in something illegal I can always call me so that I could bai-"
"Stop! I'm not going to do anything that breaks the law as long isn't necessary."
"But you're still planning to break the law, no?"
"....Are you even listening? Whatever, if it's necessary yes I would."
While they were talking Ai felt like she was being ignored by the two, no it is the case, she had to do something, or else she might as well be forgotten for real!
"Ahem- anyway, I won't report you to the police or anything, I don't have any obligation to do so, although no one got hurt it doesn't change the fact that you caused us mental trauma, it was pretty scary though."
"Then what do you want then?"
"I want to know how you did "that". I want some answers."
"You want to know how I did "that"? 'If I told you I don't know either, would you believe me?"
Ai shook her head and answered. "No."
"I know right? You won't anyway. I would be grateful if you don't ask about it because it is a personal secret of mine."
Kyōka asked with a confused expression. "What are you guys talking about?"
Kyle was silent for a moment, after that he decided.
'Kyōka don't scream, I'll tell you about it later.' Hearing his face Inside her mind, she almost jumped from her chair, however as Kyle instructed, she didn't scream she only stared at him with a surprised expression.
"... But I want to know because I couldn't stop thinking about it." Ai wanted to know, she wanted to know how he disappeared, at first she thought that it was a ghost but right now the proof was right in front of her.
"It's not my problem, also who are you by the way?"
"Hayasaka Ai."
Kyōka remembered something. "Hayasaka? If I'm not wrong your family is working for the Shinomiya right?"
Ai nodded and replied. "Yes, I'm currently working as the butler of Kaguya-sama."
"Kaguya? Ah yes, the eldest daughter, then that makes things easier then, forget about this matter, I'm Kagamiin Kyōka, my family had some shares with the Shinomiya group...If you keep asking him questions that he doesn't want to answer...I might as well ask my mother to talk with the Shinomiya to fire you if keep bothering him." Kyōka meant what she said.
Ai was silent for a moment, before replying. "Alright...I won't bother you guys if you'll excuse me."
She stared at Kyle for a moment before, walking away with her friends, although she left it doesn't mean that she would give up, because it might be Kyle might be her only lead to find 'that' person.
Looking at her disappearing figure, he had a feeling that they would meet again soon, shifting his attention toward Kyōka.
"What you did was effective, but that was the same as threatening her no?"
"W-well yes, I have to admit that but it's the only way I know without using violence.."
"Forget it, anyway your family had a share of the Shinomiya Group?" He asked.
"Yes, that's right."
"How much is it?"
"5% might look small, but it's already worth billions."
"Oh...yeah to tell you the truth."
"Yes?"
"I own the 10% of the Shinomiya Group Share Stocks."
"Seriously?" Kyōka looked at him with a surprised expression.
"Yes, seriously."
"So wait, you're the mysterious guy that bought 10% of the Shinomiya Group Share Stocks a few weeks ago?"
He wasn't sure how to answer that, however, he did get the share stocks a few weeks ago, so that mysterious guy was most likely him.
"Well...yes."
"Amazing...I didn't know you had a powerful background…"
"Wait wut?"
