Rebuild World

147 Mounting means

Alpha suddenly sees the entrance and exit of the room. When Akira was followed and saw the same place, Carol and Viola appeared from there.

Those other than Akira also noticed Carol and Viola. When Carol and Viola look over the room, they talk a little and then take a different action. Viola heads toward Katsuragi and Tomezima, and Carol walks toward Akira.

Carol smiles when she comes to Akira's side.

"It's good to see you again. Bizarre encounter, Akira."

"Right. Carol. What can I do for you?

"I was hoping to chat with Akira in my spare time. Are you busy?"

"No, I'm fine"

"That's good to hear."

Akira was sitting on a table displaying relics from the old world. Carol naturally sits next to Akira.

Carol is wearing a bodysuit-based combat suit. It looks pretty calm compared to the old world-style radically designed combat clothes Carol wore at the Mihazono Street ruins. Still, Carol's attractive body line is strong enough to be a seductive (frightening) outfit for those unfamiliar with the opposite sex.

A bodysuit zipper is down to the position where Carol's chest valley can be seen to the bottom. Carol doesn't seem to care at all, although the gaze of the working people was off her chest.

Akira beware of Carol.

"Sit down on your own, but be careful not to break the table"

"Oh, cool. Do I look that weighty?

"No, I just had a shootout earlier. What? The shelled platform may be brittle."

"Yes. I'll be careful. My weight is a secret to you. If you really want to know, there's a way for Akira to hold me up naked and make sure. Would you recommend it?

Answer Carol, who smiles (cheeks) well, with Akira smiling bitterly.

"Don't"

"You're not getting along."

Carol replied with a joyful and unfortunate laugh.

Blood stains are scattered all over the floor of the room, and pods are rolling everywhere. It's a sight to imagine the tragic battle that leaves the traces of the shootout all sorts of colourful. Carol looks inside that room again and then laughs and talks gently, without how she felt bad about the misery.

"Still, it looks like you fought pretty flashy, huh?

Akira argues with disgust.

"It's not my fault."

Carol is a little surprised by Akira's reaction. Because I didn't think Akira was a person who cared about that hand. There are no shards to blame on Carol for Akira. But it could have been a word that inspired good sense in Akira. Defend Akira lightly to make that decision and not undermine Akira's mood.

"Sure, this is because of the people who attacked us, not because of Akira."

After Akira looks a little strange, she realizes Carol's mistake and shakes her neck to the side.

"It's not. The room was prettier after the fight. The ones who came with the snails did a lot to make the room look fancy right now, dragging the body around and spreading blood, wiping the hallway blood with sheets and then putting it back inside the room. So this sight is not my fault. Well, I didn't fight carefully to keep my room clean."

Answer as Carol is convinced.

"Oh, that's the thing. You're doing a lot of small work."

"Smallworker?"

"Yes, it's a silly little worker, but anyone who is deceived is deceived."

Akira didn't know what Carol's story meant and had a question mark on her expression.

Carol asks with a slightly mean smile when she realizes how Akira is doing.

"You say you don't know what you're talking about. If you want to know, if it's a good idea to talk about my predictions, why don't you explain them to me?

"Tell me."

Because it was an interesting story, Akira answered without thinking in particular.

Akira waits in anticipation of Carol's story, but Carol stares at Akira in silence as she smiles (cheeks). Carol opens her mouth with pleasure around the strange look of Akira turning into something surprising.

"What would Akira do if I said information fee......?

"Fee the information..."

"It's not just knowledge, is it? You know how Akira is, don't you?

"... well, yes."

Akira showed subtle satisfaction. Carol looked forward to seeing how Akira was doing.

From the side (for) it looks like Carol is enjoying watching Akira react by saying something a little mean to half the joke. But Carol was doing everything she could to carefully check Akira's reaction without even putting her inner parts (shards) on the table.

Do you really take it, take it as a joke, laugh and flush, or give a thoughtful reply? From Akira's reaction, Carol was trying to explore in depth the standards, guidelines, thoughts, etc. of a personality named Akira.

If Akira's reactions showed some strong expressions of dissatisfaction, aversion, rejection, etc., Carol would have immediately decided to apologize to Akira for what she had said in a light joke and started explaining Akira in a mood.

Akira has her troubles in mind. Carol is waiting for Akira's reply as she observes how Akira is doing.

Akira answers with a slightly untrained look.

"... I don't want to know that much, and I'll stop it"

Carol answers with a slight bitter smile.

"Just kidding. Akira's pretty serious."

"... I hate that hand joke"

Looking at Akira, who answered in a slightly grumpy manner, Carol answers with a smile (cheeks) and a little sorrow as she deepens her understanding of Akira in the back.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Don't be angry because I apologize. But I was really glad that Akira thought my story was so worthwhile. Apologize. I'll explain it to you in detail, so fix your mood. Right?"

…… Okay. "

I guess you didn't think it was offensive. And I guess he was also interested in talking. Akira nodded slightly reluctantly.

I think Carol reads a lot from Akira's attitude.

(Does Akira not make sense of the joke or does she dislike the joke involving gold? From this attitude, you feel like both. Will you be cautious of bad jokes when dictating Akira)

Carol started explaining herself without putting her insides on the table, smiling (cheeks) nicely.

The cuttlefish are trying to replace the raiders with gold, whether they live or die. Both the current and future lives and deaths of the raiders. The name of the snails that will replace them with gold is settlement money and damages for this raid.

Survivors will be forced to carry huge debts and collect them over the long term. But just because you stuck a gun to someone's forehead and made them sign an agreement on a loan of a large sum of extrajudicial interest doesn't mean it will be treated as a valid claim in the east, no. Because the Unified Enterprise Union, the largest authority in the east, will not allow it.

The Unified Enterprise has declared that it will not allow any factor to inhibit sound, fair, free and peaceful economic activity in the East. Whether or not it will actually be controlled, those rules, etc. are well promulgated. Above all, for our own economic activities.

When it comes to what crime is in the east, that means hostility to the Unified Enterprise. Though the Unified Enterprise Company does not make as big a move as hunters kill each other on the outskirts of the city's walls, it begins to exterminate them with all its might when scammers and merchants try to spread the rat lecture. Such a bias exists in the justice of the Unified Enterprise.

Making someone carry debt for unjustified reasons is also a crime that inhibits or awes sound economic activity and is hostile to the Unified Enterprise.

For this reason, it is necessary to demonstrate the legitimacy of the debt in order for the cuttlefish and the survivors of the raiders to bear it. That also includes the validity of the amount of settlement payments that will be owed. I tried to kill myself, so I couldn't settle for a trillion aurums, etc.

And if that legitimacy is recognized, it is also possible to seize the subject's property via the Unified Enterprise. Seizure of bank accounts and hunter's office accounts will also be possible. It is even possible to sell a shortfall of claims to the Hunter's Office.

The cuttlefish are polluting the room because of the justification for the expensive settlement. That's where they're trying to record the sight of a tragic battle going on and raise the amount of settlement money and damages.

Akira listens to Carol's description, then looks over the room again and squeals.

"... I see. In that case, would it be more favorable if the scene were cruel?"

"A raid that created a tragic scene. The culprit. The settlement. Cost of restitution in kind. Other expenses. You're going to squeeze the killer to the limit, whether he lives or dies."

"But is it something that goes so well?

"Maybe it's okay. 'Cause I have a great player."

Carol replied that way, pointing to Viola, who was negotiating with the cuttlefish.

"She's a viola, well, she's a negotiator or a case man who goes through every inch of it. I came here with Viola's escort, but I guess Viola heard about this on her own information network. Viola told me about this raid."

"Isn't that the one the snail called?

"Maybe I came on my own. And Viola has the strength to just come on her own and not be driven back. I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm guessing you're even negotiating. I took on her escort. What am I gonna say, but you're a pretty poor quality woman, so you better stay out of this, okay? If you're not accustomed to negotiating, even more so."

Carol joked and told Akira that. But I also somehow found out to Akira that I was serious about saying that.

"If Carol says so, I'll be careful."

"Do that."

Honestly nodded (nodding) to Akira, Carol replied with a slight laugh of satisfaction.

It's true what Carol is really saying. However, it is also a definite explanation because it does not allow Viola to give extra light.

Carol is trying to cage Akira. I don't want Viola to give me any extra help.

The cuttlefish are continuing to negotiate. Four people, Katsuragi, Tomezima, Cheryl and Viola, each have different expressions to go through.

I tell Viola by showing Tomezima an attitude she can't back down with her nagging, even though she doesn't feel good about it.

"... no! It would be too good a bug to turn over all the raiders after you've stuck your neck at will!

Tell Tomezima as Viola laughs with her spare, confident and provocative expression on her beauty.

"Oh, I didn't just explain that I could increase my forehead by 50%. I just offered you better terms. I can't believe the bugs are too good."

"The one who bought people's claims for 60% of their nominal value took them to this profit!

"As for the purchase amount of that claim, it's supposed to be the result of mutual agreement? If you say so, I can sell it to you (you) for less. Want it?"

"... well, that's"

Tomezima wandered. That claim is the debt of a hunter named Caddle who tried to kill Akira. It's a claim that some aspects of Tomezima's push on Viola to avoid hostility with Akira. Akira's return of eight armed hunter-like men had turned that claim into something of a more troublesome nature.

Viola smiles and tells the snail.

"I don't know. You'd make more money if you gave me all the raiders, wouldn't you?

The snail answers with shaking troubles in the profits.

"That being said, I also have a business relationship. I asked Tomezima to switch quickly on this occasion, which is commercial benevolence."

Tomezima speaks up as soon as she gets my will.

"You bet! Exactly!

"But only 50% more..."

"Hey!?

When he heard the snail whining (crushing) that would flip the foreword, Tomezima made a panicked voice.

Viola, who has learned to respond to how Katsuragi and Tomezima are doing, now urges Cheryl to agree to the story.

"What do you think? I'd like to hear from you, the head of this inmate party in this store. You (too) should make choices that are beneficial to the organization as the head of the organization. Not in the interest of unrelated financiers."

Three gaze gathers at Cheryl. Cheryl had listened to the three of them, but had slightly removed his gaze and consciousness from the three.

Cheryl looks at the end of her gaze with a slightly stiff look. At the end of his gaze are Akira and Carol, who are bickering. Cheryl saw Akira happily talking to a strange woman, desperately suppressing something springing from the bottom of her heart with reason.

Cheryl understands. Don't act like this emotion. It brings itself one step closer to ruin. Anxiety, jealousy, anger (phew), fear, grief and sadness drive your normal judgment crazy. Crazy decisions will result in a pile of failures, which will eventually create a factor for Akira to see herself through. Cheryl was engraving that into his own reason. And I kept calm by mobilizing all my reason.

Katsuragi notices Akira at the end of Cheryl's gaze and speaks.

"Oh well. Should I ask Akira's opinion, too?

Speak as Cheryl strives to be calm.

"... No, I think Akira has left this matter to Mr. Katsuragi. I think maybe even if you ask, Akira tells you to look troublesome and like it. I also follow Mr Katsuragi's opinion. If it's in the interest of the organization, I think it's in the best interest of the organization to align with Akira and Katsuragi's will."

The rattlesnake delegated the choice speaks with increasing concern.

"Really? What should I do..."

Talk as Viola fronts her attitude that she has made significant concessions.

"You have no choice. Then the survivors hand it over to Tomezima. The body is handed over to me. How about this? Tomezima can't lend money to dead people, and she can't take it away, can she? You might be able to do it, but taking it away from the dead has to be a lot out of Tomezima's specialty. Not a bad suggestion, I suppose, but what do you say?

Katsuragi sees Tomezima. Tomezima had a slightly dissatisfied look on her face, but she was reluctantly nodding.

Viola smiles.

"It's settled."

"... Hmm. How to take it from the dead would be like a seizure of property. Is there a big difference in the amount of results? Can we achieve a 50% increase?

Viola laughs invincibly at questions like Tomezima's Abandoned Dialogue.

"There are many ways there. Trade secrets for details of the means. I'll send Mr. Katsuragi a summary of the means and any recoveries, minus fees, along with the report."

Three people, Katsuragi, Tomezima and Cheryl, each look at Viola with a different look. There was only agreement that the difference between the three insides would be to recover the gold in a way that wasn't even busy (Roku).

The work of the cuttlefish was completed as a whole. The raiders were carried away in disregard of their free will, both life and death. The survivors were taken by Tomezima's men in light attire, and the dead were packed in a body bag and transported to Viola's men.

Cheryl's men are carrying blood stained sheets. It looks like it would be hard to clean a room that was intentionally contaminated.

As the cuttlefish returned, Viola came to Akira without returning.

Talk as Viola looks at Akira with interest.

"Good to see you again."

Akira replies without hesitation.

"Right."

Talk as Carol looks at the two of them with an unexpected look on her face.

"What? Do you know him?

Akira explains to Carol before Carol makes any strange misunderstandings or extra mistakes.

"I had a little thing when Sikarabe hired me to do my job, and I talked to a guy named Tomezima a little bit about it. I was there then. It's not like we know each other. We only met once."

…… Yes. "

Carol simply said that. Carol listens to Akira's explanation and, after believing Akira's explanation, makes a lot of concerns and assumptions without flushing it out as a good thing. That somehow passed on to Akira as well.

I met Viola once in the past. That's just how Carol looks. Akira classified a human being named Viola as not an enemy so far, but a cautionary one.

Carol gets up and smiles at Akira.

"Looks like Viola's coming back, so I'll pull you up, too. Akira, I'll see you soon."

"Oh. In it."

Viola asks Carol lightly.

"Looks like the story was playing, but what were you talking about?

"A lot. Yeah, I told Akira everything about Viola. Bad quality case stores."

"Oh, cool."

Viola tells Akira with a mean smile on her face.

"I don't know what Carol blew me into, but if it's bad quality, Carol's not losing either, is she? A lot of guys have driven their lives crazy because they've contributed too much to Carol. Be careful, too."

"I will."

Listen to Akira's reply and Carol talks with a thin laugh.

"Oh, cool. Looks like Akira caught on to Viola's poor quality quickly. See you later."

That's what Carol left behind and left with Viola.

Alpha smiles and talks.

"I mean, those two are both poor quality, right?"

'Don't be. Well, killing five people and being flat doesn't make a big difference to me, does it?

To Akira, who is somewhat self-derisive, Alpha answers with a smile (cheeks) as usual.

"I don't think so."

…… Right. "

Akira answered with a slightly worse affection like a blindfold.

Akira then returned to Cheryl's private room with Cheryl. Because Cheryl asked me to.

Cheryl didn't try to change from customer service clothes to everyday clothes, as usual, even when she went back to her room. He walks into the room and stands in silence, feeling a little overwhelmed.

Akira wondered a little about Cheryl's condition, but was tired so she didn't care deeply. Cheryl had come all the way to Akira as she unloaded her gear and sat on the couch for a breath.

Cheryl climbed onto the couch as she slowly crouched over Akira's legs and held her from the front to Akira as before. However, it was slightly different from Cheryl's previous condition.

Cheryl is an ostensibly Akira lover, who uses its pre-construction to hug Akira or something. Cheryl's expression at that time strongly showed joy, tranquillity, and the like enjoying a comfortable moment with her lover.

But now Cheryl's expression was a little dark and somewhat evoked an unexpected atmosphere.

Cheryl puts her own head on Akira's shoulder and holds it tight against Akira. It was not an embrace to attract the beloved, but a plea of the attached.

Akira doesn't have enough life experience or observation to correctly perceive Cheryl's insides. Still, I could feel Akira doing something different than usual in the sense that Cheryl was not doing well. I speak to Cheryl slightly confused.

"Cheryl?"

"... excuse me. I think what I was about to get shot at earlier made me even more scared now if I was relaxed. Let me do this for a while.... If you don't like Akira, I'll leave you."

By Eastern standards, by Slam Street standards, if you're about to get shot and killed, you're usually upset. I guess we shouldn't think by human standards accustomed to the rough events of that hand, such as hunters. Akira remembers that and answers with a light faith in Cheryl's statement.

"Oh, you mean that. Well, whatever you want until you calm down."

"... thank you for your time."

Cheryl answered that with a slightly darker voice, strengthening the power to hold Akira.

Cheryl is not lying. Certainly there are fears that nearly killed me. But more than that, Cheryl feared that Akira's distractions would end.

Cheryl understands. Akira is nothing like you. Akira is not in love with Cheryl or anything. Akira is also not interested in Cheryl's body. Akira doesn't expect much in return for helping Cheryl and the others. Akira has no sense of companionship with Cheryl and the others. Akira's step-in-law, reason, and rationale for helping Cheryl are the only things she can call distracting.

Cheryl watched Akira talking to Carol. Even from Cheryl's point of view, Carol looked very beautiful and attractive to the opposite sex. And it looked like Carol was inviting Akira to Cheryl.

As a matter of course, Akira usually lives with someone even where Cheryl doesn't know her. Cheryl had turned away from the obvious.

Even tomorrow someone may dictate Akira and become Akira's lover. Then Akira's distractions will disappear. Seeing Carol inviting Akira, seeing a beautiful and attractive woman inviting a competent hunter, Cheryl had been stuck with the possibility of ever turning away.

Cheryl would have been a little more relieved if Akira had obsessed with Cheryl at all, if only she had asked me because that was Cheryl's body, heart, position, property, ability, whatever. As long as you ask for it, Cheryl will gladly give you everything.

But Akira hasn't asked for anything from Cheryl to ease Cheryl's anxiety.

Will Akira's distractions (kimagu) support herself until the day Akira tries to stay connected with herself with other elements than her own efforts? Cheryl kept holding Akira in her arms to escape that anxiety.

Cheryl's men then came to report. Though dazed by Cheryl's slightly grumpy appearance interrupted the embrace, the boy reports that the wounded have been transported, etc.

"... so the one at the clinic told my boss to come to the clinic once. He said he needed to talk to me about the cost of treatment."

"You gave me and Mr. Katsuragi their names, didn't you?

"I put it out. But the number of people is high, and the injuries (injuries) are harsh. You got a lot to say over there, don't you? For God's sake, they're not going to live if they beat you up with a treatment that just won't kill you if you don't have money. Convince me somehow."

"... ok. I'm going to show my face. I'll do something about it."

The boy thanked Cheryl and bowed his head deeply before leaving the room.

Akira was going to have her body examined once in it. You may have a brief check-up before going to a full-time hospital. That's what I think and ask Cheryl.

"The clinic. Can I follow you, too?

Cheryl answers with a little surprise.

"Of course (of course). As much as you'd like me to."

"All right. Let's go then"

Akira headed to the clinic with Cheryl.
