The same day as the previous chapter at Sakurazaka Highschool...
Provide me everything that you know about this Mafia and their most likely Leader, Romano. Arata said authoritatively, adjusting his glasses.
That's what I've came here for! Spinner said enthusiastically.
Go on. Arata said coldly.
The Romano Mafia Family are one of the famous and most dangerous Mafia Families in Brooklyn not just in Brooklyn but also in the entire USA. Their name was known all around the country for their ruthlessness, arrogance, and wealth, the strength of their clan was proven and tested. Spinner said coldly Their Leader, Romano. Most famously known as Don Romano is a man of mysteries his origins are unknown but his ruthlessness, arrogance and strategic prowess is what makes him dangerous he is not afraid to use any means necessary to completely crash his opponents. Spinner said coldly.
Is that all? Arata said authoritatively.
Yes, for now. Spinner said enthusiastically.
So, Granger is trying to provide me minimize information and just have me one chance to ask a crucial question to obtain an equally crucial information. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.
So, are you going to use that chance? Spinner asks expectantly.
I will use the chance to ask one question. Arata said coldly.
Alright, ask away! Make sure that it will help your cause! Spinner said sarcastically.
Tell me, does Granger and This Romano Bastard have any past relationships? Rivalries, Oppositions, etc.? Arata asks expectantly I am expecting an honest answer because this is a one time privilege that you gave me, so I can use it the way I want to. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.
Alright, since that is your question I'll tell you. Spinner said sarcastically, letting out a sigh Our team and Romano Mafia Family have multiple encounters in the past already...And all of it was unpleasant. Don Romano and Madame Granger's ideologies deeply contrats to one another and Don Romano's activities doesn't just appeal in Madame Granger's eyes, that's why whenever we have a chance... Madame Granger always tries to prevent their dealings. That's how we formed a long term rivalry against Don Romano and his clan. Spinner said clearly concerned.
Granger was using bounty hunting for justice and the prize monies that she got are being used for both resource expansion and charitable donations...While, Don Romano was just after money, fame, power. Is that it? If their ideologies really contrasts with one another then that's the only interpretation. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.
That's right! Oops, there goes your chance card! No going back! Spinner said sarcastically.
Tell me, there's an underlying reason as to why Granger decides to relay this informations to me, am I right? Arata asks expectantly.
You've used your chance card that must only mean that I won't be answering questions anymore...But, one thing is for sure though! This is a warning from Madame Granger so listen well, Don Romano is currently in Japan and chasing after you and Shinji...for the reasons the you are familiar with! Spinner said coldly That's all, you won't be seeing me at school starting tomorrow! Spinner said enthusiastically.
Those informations are enough. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.
I'll be going now! Spinner said enthusiastically.
Spinner left.
So, according to the information that Spinner provided me it's pretty obvious that they've came here for our bounties...But, I am pretty sure that there is a reason as to why Granger decided to pull this move. Arata said curiously Given Romano and Granger's antagonistic relationship towards one another and considering that Romano's primary objective is to acquire the bounties on Me and Shinji's head...We can definitely deduce some reason as to why they've came here that is also connected to Granger's action right now. Arata said coldly Don Romano most likely has two objectives other than acquiring our bounty...Given that Granger have consistently gets in their operations' way we can assume that he have anticipated that Granger will be here somewhere else to acquire our bounty given the fact that she is a bounty hunter. Given that reason it's certain that Romano has two agendas in mind when he came here in Japan. Capturing Me and Shinji for our bounties and the permanent elimination of Granger and her team. Arata said authoritatively, adjusting his glasses Most importantly, what exactly is her objective? Arata said curiously.
Back in the Class 3-C Classroom...
Where have you been exactly, Arata?! Shinji said clearly concerned.
I'll share it to you and Kaori later in the cafeteria. Arata whispered coldly.
I'll be keeping your word then! It's good that you aren't hiding things to yourself any longer. Shinji said enthusiastically.
The bell suddenly rang indicating that it's finally lunchtime.
That's our signal, go and fetch Kaori immediately... I'll wait for you in the Cafeteria. Aeata said authoritatively, adjusting his glasses.
Arata left the classroom to go to the Cafeteria.
There he goes again...Shinji said feigning annoyance, letting out a sigh.
Arata asks you again to fetch me, right? Kaori said enthusiastically.
You startled me! Shinji said sarcastically.
Sorry about that! I mean, I mean to do that though! Kaori said enthusiastically.
You're good at pulling pranks too, huh? Shinji said sarcastically.
Alright, let's go! Let's not make Arata wait any further. Kaori said calmly.
Right! Shinji said enthusiastically.
After a few minutes of waiting, Shinji and Kaori finally arrived.
What makes the two of you took so long? Arata asks coldly.
Sorry about that, it's kinda my fault...Kaori said hesitantly.
Anyways, what are you going to share to us? Shinji asks curiously.
You have something to share? Do we have any shifts in our plan? Kaori asks curiously.
Listen to me well...Arata said authoritatively, adjusting his glasses We have another hunter that is pursuing us for our bounty, Shinji. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.
Another bounty hunters? Shinji whispered warily.
Not really bounty hunters, we're up against a Mafia Family from the same location as Granger and her team came from... Brooklyn, New York City, USA. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.
Same origins as them? Wait, I'll try to research about the criminal history of Brooklyn. Kaori said warily.
Much better, so we won't be surprised anymore if someone from that location again tried to pursue us. Arata said authoritatively, adjusting his glasses.
What should we do now? Should we still commence our bombing plan today? Shinji asks warily.
We will continue the plan, same procedures as we planned. Arata said authoritatively.
But, we have someone on our tail...should we really do it rather than dealing with the threat first as usual? Kaori said calmly.
Don't worry, we will commence this plan today for two reasons. Arata said coldly.
Two reasons? Kaori asks curiously.
First reason, the success of the plan so that we can move on to the sixth bombing plan. Second, with this we can possibly lure our new pursuers out of their lair...I don't know if they'll respond but it's worth trying. Arata said authoritatively, adjusting his glasses.
You have a point. Shinji said warily.
So, whether they respond to it or not the only thing that matters is the success of the plan. Kaori said calmly.
That's right, get ready we will execute the plan as we planned. We're not pulling through! Arata said coldly, determination evident in his eyes.
