My roommate turns out to be the heiress of a triad!

Meanwhile, the Kujo family.

"This must be the most beautiful sunset since the beginning of spring this year."

After finishing all the business, Kujo Mao, taking a break from her busy schedule, dressed in a irisode and knelt on the veranda near the west side of the house to enjoy the scenery and sip tea.

"Indeed, madam."

The maidservant who served Kujo Mao replied in this way.

Looking towards the horizon, the sky, dyed orange-red by the setting sun, captivated her.

There was a time when she would envy the wild geese that could fly freely in the sunset.

But as she got older, her mindset changed.

One cannot simultaneously possess youth and the understanding of youth.

Now in her early thirties, she still smiles nostalgically when she thinks of her naive self from back then.

If I had been luckier or braver when I ran away from home, would I be completely different now?

At least you don't have to rely on someone whose education, appearance, intelligence, and emotional intelligence are all top-notch.

My father, mother, and all our relatives and friends are satisfied.

The only partner you're not satisfied with.

Perhaps sacrificing his own lifelong happiness in exchange for someone who could lead the Kujo family and the Shinonome Society to revive would be the perfect swan song of his magnificent life.

As the daughter of the Kujo family, she also had to cooperate with him.

But the current head of the Kujo family is Kujo Mao.

She absolutely could not tolerate her daughter embarking on the path of saving this organization that had sacrificed her own happiness.

She can do anything she wants in the future, except this.

Buzz, buzz.

The phone's vibration prompted the two maids beside her to search for the source of the information.

After confirming that the vibrations were not from their own phones, they turned their attention to Madam Kujo Mao.

Kujo Mao calmly took a sip of the tea in her cup. The rich aroma of the tea instantly filled her pearly white teeth and red lips.

Through her personal manipulation of people's minds, Kujo Mao planted spies in the branches of the Shinonome Society throughout the country.

Most of the company's affairs can be handled remotely using the telephones on the two maids beside him.

Of course, for some branches with weak control, her husband, Daisuke Kujo, would need to go there to reorganize and restructure them.

Only a very few people know how to contact the person on his phone.

The things I've been in contact with recently are nothing more than the establishment of the Osaka Export Trading Company, the progress of negotiations with the Hokkaido Fisheries Authority, and my daughter, Mayu Kujo.

Kujo Mao calmly took the black Motorola V3 from Iromuse's pocket, opened the front cover, and began processing information.

The sender of the message had no name; it was just a string of numbers.

However, thanks to her exceptional memory, Kujo Mao knew that the message was sent by Koyama Kenji.

Then, as if losing interest, he closed the lid and gently placed the phone on the solid wood floor next to him.

A few days ago, he was monitoring his daughter, Kujo Mayu's, every move at school.

Upon learning that his daughter had been buying lingerie with a strange man at a shopping mall that night, Kujo Mao terminated his mission and sent someone to replace Koyama Kenji.

The child was at the age when he was full of energy and vitality.

In addition, having spent a long time together, he has developed special feelings for Moyou, and if he continues to follow her, something unexpected might happen.

So far, she knows everything about her daughter, Kujo Mayu's, movements.

Whether it's living with that student named Sugawara Ryoichi, going to the shopping mall to pick out underwear, eating ramen at night, or going to Shibuya today, it's all good.

She knows everything.

The reason why Kujo Mao didn't immediately send someone to stop her daughter when she found out she was staying at a strange man's house was because she was angry at the time and understood that this was her daughter's way of forcing her to give in.

She had to take a tough stance to make her daughter completely abandon her aspirations, which were as ridiculous as her own fate.

However, now that she has calmed down, she doesn't stop it because she feels the time isn't right yet.

Kenji Koyama is a very good kid. His special feelings for Mayu are enough to make him do things that most people wouldn't dare to do for Mayu.

This might play an unexpected role in the future, and can be considered a trump card that I have created for Moyou.

Mao Kujo doesn't want to give up on Mayu until she finds a replacement for Kenji Koyama.

Don't blame Auntie.

Kenji.

This is the principle of life for a yakuza daughter—to use any means necessary to exploit everyone and everything that can be used.

You'd be willing to help Moyou, wouldn't you?

Kujo Mao gracefully extended her right hand, picked up the teacup, and drank the now-cold tea in one gulp.

The setting sun gradually sank into the sea, and an hour passed without us realizing it.

The stone lanterns in the courtyard slowly lit up as night fell.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Koyama called the master in Kumamoto this morning. What was the master's reaction?"

Kenji Koyama's grandfather, Yuji Koyama, is the butler of the Kujo family mansion.

In the morning, the old man came to talk to Kujo Mao about bringing Kujo Mayu home. After she refused to discuss it, he turned around and called Kujo Daisuke, who was far away in Kumamoto.

Kujo Shin'o knew all of these things.

"The master took a flight from Kumamoto to Tokyo Narita Airport half an hour ago."

We expect to arrive at the mansion in about an hour and a half.

"I see."

Kujo Mao let out a soft breath, her face as cold as ice, revealing no emotion.

If his father were still alive, Koyama Yuji's act of sending information out of the Kujo family mansion would be classified as "betraying his master".

That's enough to cost him his life.

However, specific problems require specific analysis.

Kujo Mao knew he was loyal. There was no need to make a big deal out of this.

A scolding is enough.

As for his return from Kumamoto...

Although Kujo Mao had no feelings for that man, he was still Mayu's father.

The child preferred to listen to her father rather than herself.

It's good that you're back.

Take this opportunity to talk to him and ask him to persuade Moyou to give up that ambition.

Just then, Motorola vibrated again, interrupting Mao Kujo's thoughts.

In the dim light, she found the phone by simply reaching out and touching it randomly.

I opened the flip cover and saw another message from Kenji Koyama.

Kujo Mao started reading from the first new message.

As expected, it was about her daughter, Kujo Mayu, and it was information she had known for a long time.

The first thing he said was that he met Kujo Mayu at a coffee shop in front of Shibuya Station, and she was with a guy named Sugawara Ryoichi.

When Kujo Mao saw this name, she suddenly remembered that her pen pal had mentioned in a letter many years ago that his surname was Sugawara.

Without thinking much of it, she continued scrolling down.

The second piece of information, also possessed by Kujo Mao, was crucial news discovered by Koyama Kenji after following the two as they left the coffee shop and returned home.

[The young lady has been inside his house for half an hour and hasn't come out yet!]

It seems that Kenji Koyama has discovered that they are living together.

In that case, we can take this opportunity to deal with Moyou's problem.

"Get the car ready immediately."

Kujo Mao instructed the maid beside her.
