"It doesn't make sense if it's not in front of her... first I'll show her my brother will be murdered unharmed in front of her... then I'm sure she'll understand too... that the choice she made was a mistake... But now it's too late... it's your turn... yes, cry, scream, bitter... but I can't forgive you... cum... cum... cum... cum..."

I laugh out loud in the future when I wonder if he was squeaking with bumps and hateful faces.

Emotional changes are too intense.

Alto speculates that he must be causing some sort of mental anomaly.

Uncle stripping his eyes with the face of "Was Ligail's boss like this......" he didn't know it was supposed to be his client.

Alto, on the other hand, prayed in his heart.

Sister...... never come......!

◇ ◇ ◇

"Alto has been abducted... Huh?

"Oh no..."

Aria losing her words to what was spoken from the mouth of a fallen minister.

But that's the daughter of the Marquis family, she immediately turns her mind back and asks.

"You know who did it?

"Perhaps the gangsters..."

Men like it had also fallen around.

Probably the same kind that slipped in the alley earlier.

I hear that was on the way out.

"Do you know which way they took you?

"Also, I'm sorry... that's it, I can't confirm..."

Only those who remember in the arms of the sword were on Alto's escort.

Still, given the failure to protect Alto, it is presumed that the opponent prepared a considerable number of people to cover the matter.

I mean, I guess it's a big gang of sizes.

I don't think they're taking an honest escape route, even if they figure out where Alto was taken.

I might have been able to trace it with the smell if I had Qu...

The next day, the gang sent me a letter thinking I had abducted Alto.

It said there that the lord was safe and ready to negotiate the conditions for his liberation.

The target is a criminal organization.

I don't know what terms you're going to blow, but I honestly just have to get on with that negotiation as far as this one is concerned, more than having Alto taken hostage.

The negotiator is an executive.

Naturally, the best of the ministerial corps will do it - it should have been,

"Designate Aria as the negotiator," he said?

Somehow, that's how it was written.

"Why me?

Honestly, I have to lean my neck.

Indeed Aria is the fruit sister of Alto and the oldest of the family.

But I am not involved in the management of the territory in any way.

I just happen to be home now.

Rumors of homecoming are spreading all over the city, so naturally the gang will be hearing it, but they all couldn't see why they had designated Aria.

"... but we'll have to respond more than they've been designating."

It is this evening that the other side has designated.

We had a lot of discussions in a limited amount of time, but since Alto's life is at stake, I don't want to stimulate them as much as I can.

In the end, I was to follow what I was told to do.

◇ ◇ ◇

Aria was single and headed to a designated location at a specified time.

Be sure to come alone.

No escorts should be attached either.

If you break it, there is no life for the lord.

I also follow the instructions that were written in the letter.

Consideration was also given to placing an escort in a remote position, but I also refused to do so, thinking about when they found it.

"... Looks like you're wearing surveillance everywhere after all"

He's posing as a passerby or lurking, but he's an amateur.

With Aria's keen sensing abilities, we knew exactly who constituted the gang.

Eventually it reaches the designated location.

It was one man waiting there.

"Get here by this hour."

That's what they showed me. The form said time and place.

"You remember that?

"Yes."

"Then get out the door there."

Aria, as she was told, went out through a different entrance than where she came in.

I guess that's all the man's role was, there's no sign of it following.

"I see. Now I'm the only one who knows where it really is."

In some cases, he was also thinking of raiding this place.

But there is no alto here.

It would have ended in total waste.

Aria heads to the next designated location.

But even there, another man just directed me to the next place.

"There's a back door ahead. Use it there."

"Okay."

And they tell me to take another exit again.

If you were wearing an escort, you'd probably be losing sight of yourself.

"I'm working on it."

... but it doesn't make any sense to us.

◇ ◇ ◇

Is this the third time?

Fine, that's prudent.

"Is it possible that you're on guard about me... or not?"

I've been naming Aria.

Naturally, you know me, too.

If it were, you'd be listening to me exaggerated.

Is it because of that, or are they more alert than they need to be?

"Then it's even weirder, isn't it? Why are you taking Aria?

Of course, even if the negotiator was another person, I spared no cooperation.

"I'd rather be this way though. Specify Aria for me."

'Right. You wouldn't have thought I'd find out anywhere I moved right away if I were you.'

Yes, it is.

It doesn't make sense to me how much I've tried to lose sight of Aria.

It's connected by love, isn't it?

"Talk."
