230 Episode 224: Meet me on day 15.

Takeo reads the book as he teas in the deepest seat of the cafe where he previously came with Alice.

I woke up with nothing today... and Alice's knee kick seems to have become routine.

We all had tea time at breakfast and in the guest room, leaving the mansion early and taking a seat in the back at the same time as the store opened to read the book.

"Sometimes it's good to have a relaxing cup of tea and a cigarette."

The back seat would have been smokable if the window had been open.

The table was square when Takeo arrived, but I have it turned into a round glass plate table.

Takeo waited for someone to relax.

------------------------

A pair of men and women are watching the cafe from the shadow of a building on a block away where the cafe is located.

"... why, is it here?

"Come on? When the North Platoon captain asked me where to meet him, he said this was designated a good place.

You did make only two seats in the back for the rest of it.

"You know it well.

"No, coincidentally, because we had tea here as a family last week.

"I see...? You've got two carriages.

Men and women hide their bodies a little on the side of the building so they can't see from the carriage.

and the two carriages stop in front of the store at the same time, each with a strong man descending from your podium and opening the carriage door, two men descend one at a time.

I don't know what you're talking about, but the four of them walked into the store together.

"... soldier chief, is that it?

"Yes.

Two people who were walking in front are Bernard, my husband in the South Pleasure Street, and Curtis, my husband in the North Pleasure Street.

The two behind you will be close.

"... you don't seem strong.

"... Miss Alice...

It is about like Kitamizato that has comparable strength to the lady.

I don't think it's hard to deal with that side of the world hitting Kitamizato for two people, do you?

"... me and Master Takeo aren't that strong, are we?

"Make a joke... you two have the nerve to turn to your enemies... as ignorant and yet suicidal as you are.

"It sounds kind of terrible to me.

"At least in this city, no one can survive touching the upscale between you two.

The whole city knows.

"... I treat you like a tyrant?

... I don't think neither I nor Master Takeo have said my utmost or behaved violently like that?

"That's why.

If you don't know what happens when you're clean, you're trying to do it peacefully.

"... are they hated by the city's residents?

"No, Alice, your lady is loved.

Dear Kitamizato, you're welcome.

Plus, 'Finally, Miss Alice can get married' and everyone's got their chests down.

"Ha... I knew everyone was worried about me, but...

Were you worried about not getting married so much?

Alice shall be dismayed.

"Yes. Miss Alice was your grandmother... and there's a martial arts medal..."

"The story is also explained by Master Takeo.

"The boulder is Kitamizato, isn't it?

Alice sighed and the soldier chief nodded as impressed.

------------------------

"Looks like I've kept you waiting.

Takeo spoke up and raised his face, there was an old man with a good width and a muscular middle-aged man.

"No, you didn't have a problem because you were relaxed.

Would you like some tea?

Takeo closes the book and recommends taking a seat.

"Bye."

"Excuse me.

The two arrived at their empty seats and the clerk stopped by, so I left the tea set.

The positional relationship between the three is uniform as a square triangle.

Takeo also moved his seat when he changed the table.

"... have you already ordered..." Takeo admires in his heart.

"Should I introduce myself?

A man of the right width asks Takeo.

"I'm not going to rush you.

It's a corner dish. Wouldn't it be better to serve the tea first while it's not cold?

Takeo doesn't rush to talk.

"Right.

I'll take it, Mr. Bernard.

"Yes, please wait a moment.

A muscular man nods and urges a man of good width.

None of the three of us talk about anything.

Muscular men also have the right width. Men eat spiders and tea sets.

Takeo looks at Bo and the two of them all the time as he takes a dose in Xcel.

We both finished eating in no time.

And, the clerk comes and clears the dishes, and a new tea is served before the three of them.

At the end of the meal, the clerk went down to a point where he could not see.

"Hmm, the Madeleine here is delicious no matter what time you eat it.

A man with a good width snorts and evaluates.

"Right.

And, then, let me introduce myself.

I say Clifford Curtis, who works in real estate north of the city.

This time, I came because you invited me.

Muscular men introduce themselves.

"My name is Clifton Bernard and I work in real estate south of the city.

This time, it's an honor to take care of your invitation.

"I belong to the Elvis family, Takeo Kitamizato.

I'm sorry you came all of a sudden.

"No, it's an invitation from the city's talking Kitamizato.

I was even interested in this one.

"I was also concerned, as Mr. Bernard was told.

"Really?

That was good.

Takeo smiles.

The talks between the three began.
