Chapter 295 - A week as escorts
The two people, Hilda and Megumi-chan, went to Megumi-chan’s house.
Along the way, they came across a terrible fire that occurred at a location when a sudden heavy rain began to fall and the fire suddenly died down and a kitten, which was almost hit by a car, evaded the collision with a sudden gust of wind.
Nothing happened for the most part and they arrived.
Megumi-chan’s house was a considerably huge house.
It fills me with a feeling of wanting to see the inside, nevertheless……since they said that they will do an intensive [secret training] to surprise me after this, I decided to turn off the sound and video of the [Tracking Beacon] for awhile.
Well, since the security of the house seems to be reliable, it’s currently safe.
「Well then, I’ll be going home now.」
It seems Ringo is going home.
「Then, me too, I’ll accompany you.」
Elena, too, leaves her seat.
「Elena, I’ll leave Ringo to you.」
「Yes.」
In this way, Elena left with Ringo.
Along the way, an old woman, who seemed to have an aching lower back, suddenly became better and a cat, which was walking limply, suddenly ran vigorously.
Nothing happened for the most part and they arrived at the apartment where Ringo lives.
As there was a case where it was damaged by a stalker before, Ringo’s apartment was a good apartment where security countermeasure was reliable.
「Excuse me for the intrusion.」
「I’m now going to make tea.」
Ringo was going to go to the kitchen to make tea, but was called to a halt by Elena.
「If it’s tea, let me be the one to make it.」
「Eh? But, Elena is a guest.」
「No, I’m Ringo-san’s [maid] today.」
「Maid?」
「That’s right. I heard that it’s also your examination period, and yet, you’re also doing your part at Nancy Jewelry, so it must be hard, right? Since I will do all the housework until the exams is over, Ringo-san, please study hard.」
「Thank you, Elena-chan. I will study hard.」
Thus, Ringo studies hard while Elena prepares tea in the kitchen.
Alright! The two people are inside the perfectly secured apartment, it’s currently safe.
Even though I said that, let me peep a little bit more~.
It doesn’t particularly mean that peeping is my hobby, okay!?
「Ringo-san, I’ve prepared the tea.」
「Thank you, Elena-chan.」
Elena poured Ringo, who has begun to study, tea.
「It’s delicious. Elena-chan is good at making tea, huh.」
「Yes, I always help in the kitchen.」
「Helping in the kitchen…it’s enviable… with Seiji-san…」
「Is something wrong, Ringo-san?」
「No, it’s nothing…」
Enviable? Is Ringo-san interested in tea ceremony?
Elena, leaving behind the studying Ringo, went out to the supermarket to shop.
Even so, there isn’t any suspicious person that appeared~.
Did we jump ahead a little too far?
Well, it’s better than to be forestalled, right?
After that, the people, who recovered from injuries and diseases, suddenly appeared around Elena one after another too and she finished shopping and went back to Ringo’s apartment without any problem in particular.
「I’m back!」
「Welcome back, Elena-chan. Thank you, you’re even doing the shopping. What are you going to prepare for today?」
「Today’s menu is ginger pork~.」
「Wow, I like ginger pork very much~!」
It looks somewhat fun~.
I’d like to eat ginger pork, too……
After dinner, I went out to fetch up the two people and the first day of the escort strategy ended without a hitch.
Even from the next day, I continued the schedule of sending the two to escort in the morning and fetching them up in the evening and a week passed with nothing happening.
Umu, on the contrary, it’s ominous when they continue to do nothing.
It was on Friday when the trouble occurred.
「Hey! Megumi, we were waiting for you.」
The two people, Megumi-chan and Hilda, had been surrounded by some people while they were on the way to Megumi-chan’s house.
This is bad!
I was in the middle of work, but I left my seat and pretended to go to the restroom, transform myself into ninja form, put on [Invisibility1] magic and then, rushed toward the two people’s position using [Teleportation].
「What! You guys.」
Hm?
[Vigilance] magic isn’t reacting.
What is happening?
When I looked at them properly, surrounding the two people were young men, who were about the same age as Megumi-chan.
Are they classmates at school?
And then, a person soon steps forward.
「Megumi, please stop playing your half-baked idol make-believe game and go out with me.」
「Make-believe game, you said!? Who would do something like going out with you?」
Hey, is he wooing her?
The other party was a guy, who seemed to be weak-headed, under misconception.
「Who would want to go out with me, you said? The fact is that there’s a lot of girls, who makes advances at me, you know? Because it’s considered an honor.」
This fellow is hopeless, he doesn’t comply with human conversation.
「Are you stupid?」
「Just come!」
That person was going to grab Megumi-chan’s hand, at the moment-
「Please don’t be rude to Megumi-san.」
Hilda stood in the way in front of that fellow.
「What is this person?」
「Hilda, it’s no use, that fellow is a dangerous guy, so step back.」
「You’re called Hilda, huh. Cheeky brat!」
That boy, who seems to be weak-headed, is going to push Hilda.
However, Hilda quickly stopped that fellow slooow attack and grabbed it.
「You sanovabitch, you want to fight back, huh!」
The boy tries to take back the hand that is grabbed by Hilda, but the hand doesn’t budge an inch.
「Damn it, this fellow has enormous strength despite her appearance! Let, me, go!」
The boy finally broke free from Hilda’s hand, taking many steps backwards.
Are you scared by Hilda?
「Hey, beat that pipsqueak.」
The boy gives an order to a tall man, who is standing at the side.
He’s an underling as expected, huh.
The tall man, about 2m tall, steps forward in front of Hilda.
The height difference between him and Hilda is tremendous; they look like a dwarf and a giant.
「Hilda, it’s no use, that person is a black belter in karate! Run away.」
When I looked at them carefully, Megumi-chan has been caught by the other men.
Well, because the men, who seized her, are those guys, who seems to be timid, I think they aren’t exercising violence, but……
Should quietly step in and help?
「It’s fine, I’m going to save her.」
Hilda answered so as if responding to the voice in my mind.
Hilda has probably noticed that I’m nearby.
Thus, she is saying those words towards me.
