"Franz! We're in big trouble!
Howa Howa jumps in on me. It was easy to see that it was just an anomaly.
"Howa Howa, calm down first. Take a slow, deep breath."
I dared to make a laugh and say so. Not if we're confused together.
As he snorted and nodded, Howa opened her mouth wide and inhaled her breath, puking softly.
"So, what happened, Howa Howa"
"Macolibe, the manager, was taken... by the scared ones..."
This is a really big deal......
"Let me hear as much detail as I can. And the Howa Howa itself isn't being chased, is it?
"Howa Howa, left alone. I know Wang Du and only Franz...... So I ran..."
At least it doesn't seem to be harming Howa. I'm glad I just figured that out.
That's where Celia brought the water.
"One drink, please. Nod's thirsty, isn't he?
Howahowa drank a lot of water and then told me the details.
The expression "no matter how many times" came in the middle of the conversation, but to sum it up, here's the thing.
It was closing time and the door opened. Three badly resembled men came in.
The men first told Mr. Macolibe:
We have to pay for the shop we're doing here.
To borrow the words of Howa Howa would mean, "I said it on behalf of insurance to protect myself from the bad guys". But no matter what you think, those are the bad guys.
Mr. Macolibe said that stuff like that wasn't in the contract to rent the property, and he stuck it out.
He was fat in the arms, and I guess he wasn't the type to give in, even though he looked like a threat.
Then the men made that shop unscrupulous. Mr. Macolibe, who tried to stop him, was also beaten and taken...
"We'll go to the store first. Howa Howa is..."
It's dangerous to take them. Or so I was anxious to be left alone.
"Serlia, please Howa Howa. Me and Mary are gonna go."
"I get it. Leave a message."
Serria also understood with a strong eye.

Me and Mary had a light conversation as we ran and moved.
"Franz, you have some idea."
"This is called a gang, and it involves the organization of the society behind it."
This society is not made up of just every clean thing. That's a little different from what it means that crimes can sometimes be committed. It means that the people who are doing illegal things are in the corner of society's system.
"Part of the gang is said to be partitioning downtown restaurants. Sometimes I ask for money like a fee in advance from a Nawabari store."
"It's like paying for a caution stick, right? If you're paying for that, if a tough guy comes, you're gonna tell him to get rid of you, right?
Mary seems to know more or less.
Needless to say, nothing like that would be written in the lease agreement.
Besides, if you pay for that, you'll be able to connect with the gang. It won't be something that can dissolve the relationship at all.
So I should have made it clear that Mr Macolibe cannot pay.
Then the men stormed out. That could have meant something to other stores if they didn't pay for it.
"I'm also concerned about the safety of people named Macolibe, but as long as there's not so much going on over there, I don't think they'll let you go. It's not about killing or kidnapping people, it's about taking money."
"I think so. Though, I don't mind until I meet Mr. Macolibe."
When I went to "Country Shop," the shop was littered with chairs and desks, and there was even a hole in the wall.
You're brilliantly smashed...
Officials from nearby stores were also here to see how it was going. One of them has spoken out in sympathy.
You guys from the store? I guess I turned my teeth to "The Crosswound Rockbird"...... They're gonna do terrible things if they don't pay a premium... "
I guess that 'Crosswound Rockbird' is the name of the gang.
"They're all around here... unfortunately, we pay five pieces of silver each month"
Sixty silver coins in a year? That's a lot of money.
"Um, can't you sue the police for this and make them stop...?
I don't expect much, but I asked him no. First, we need to gather information.
The man shook his head to the side.
"I can't. Nor do the police take investigations too seriously into gangsters. If people were killed, they'd put their hips in just fine, but Rockbird with the Cross Wounds is awesome. Assuming one, two, or even to the point of arresting the lower end, they will retaliate..."
In this land, it must be customary to pay a premium.
While doing so, Mr. Macolibe was found. Or walked back from him to the store.
However, my face was quite swollen.
I've been beaten many times, no doubt.
"Mr. Macolibe!
I headed right for him.
"My lord, I'm sorry to worry. If I told you I could pay such unfair money, it's this Zama. The fight was reasonably confident that it was a settlement...... He was a professional in a fight..."
"For one thing, let's appeal to the police. Assault, for sure."
"Right...... I'm going to cry and fall asleep..."
However, the reaction of the Thief Bridge Street store was predictable, but the police did not take it properly.
The case was also handled by a fight between the customer and the clerk.
"That's not true." The Rockbird with the Cross Scratch is involved. "
Mary said with a grumpy face. This is pretty on your mind.
Police personnel looked tired.
"That's why. Thief Bridge Street is divided by" Cross Wounded Rockbird ". There's no winning argument with them from the front. Even if they don't pay in advance, they'll crush the store with a bunch of little earrings... If you're going to do it over there, you should honestly pay..."
"Well, at the time the gang survived, I was guessing."
Like that, Mary sighed.
"Now, Franz, how can I retaliate against you?
"I thought Mary would say that."
