Jikuu Mahou chapter 378: The boss's identity
Super Oracle-chan (Lightning-chan version) and I came...... to the girl who tried to give Megumi a red candy.
That candy was so spicy! In retrospect, I want to prank her...... I (and the spirit) sneaked into that girl's room with [Night shade] by using [Teleportation]. Is this a prank chance?
That girl was messing with her cell phone in her jersey appearance.
She has a traditional Japanese-style cell phone? Doesn't she have any money?
[EN: The "traditional Japanese-style cell phones", from what I understand, are just those old flip phone models, which still are a popular trend in Japan nowadays apparently. A popular brand for these is called Softbank and another popular cliché attached to these phones is the "Gal" girl stereotype.]
When I approached with sneaky steps to prank her while I´m invisible.......
RingRing!
Suddenly the phone rang!
I was surprised and thought that my heart would jump out of my mouth........
「Yes」
The girl hurried to the phone.
I confirmed the screen, and it was the phone number of the mastermind.
What a timid omenism.
[EN: The word here comes from "omen". Just clearing it up since someone told me it might come from onanism... and trust me, that is something completely different, R18 stuff.]
I ask Super Oracle-chan (Lightning-chan version) to reverse detection with a gesture. My intention seems to have been transmitted, and Super Oracle-chan (Lightning-chan version) is inside the cell phone when the girl talks.
「Ah, I'm sorry, the condition of the radio wave is now a bit....... It's okay, sorry」
It seems that there was a disturbance in the radio waves, but it appears that there was no problem in particular, so the girl continued with the call.
After that, while looking at the image of [Tracking beacon], I just waited for reverse detection to be completed.
「Th, That....... I, I´m sorry......」
Somehow the girl began to apologize furiously. Is she scolded for giving Megumi a candy and being towy?
"Please forgive me that much, so, somehow....... An, Anything, I will do......"
Hmm? Somewhat, the clouds are getting doubtful.
Well, I wonder if I can somehow hear the other party's voice? I might be noticed if I get too close.......
When I thought, I could hear the voice of the mastermind whom the girl talked with.
『In the first place, it may be because you failed! There is no one who would fail such a simple task!』
When thinking about it, Oracle-chan succeeded in [Reverse detection], and the voice came from the [Tracking beacon] on that side.
「Why don't you just give me something else....... Why should I pay a penalty of 100 million yen... just because I couldn't give the candy?」
100 million yen! What are they talking about?
『It was written properly in the agreement signed by you in the past, and you are supposed to compensate for any damages caused by failing your work. It cost me 100 million yen due to your failure. That's how it is』
「Th, That......」
It's a stupid talk~. The price setting of 100 million yen in the first place is stupid. Do you deceive minors with such a contract?
I'll go to the mastermind for a moment.
-----
I relocated to the location of Oracle-chan's tracking beacon and moved to the mastermind´s side in an instant.
The place was like a president's office room where there are plenty of gorgeous things with bad taste. I am there with a bad guy with a blind eye around 40 years old. Is he the mastermind......?
「I understand, it's 100 million yen, I will sell you overseas if you can't pay it!」
The mastermind said absurd words and ended the call with the daughter.
「GaGaGa! What a fool! What a foolish girl! Being deceived by such a fake contract! But, I will sell someone who can't be used anymore away quickly to someone, so I wonder if I can get a single shot before that」
Are you guilty?
When I appreciated the mastermind, the name was Kuroyama, and his occupation was president of an entertainment company.
I see, it's Megumi's dad´s rival.
In that case, what he is doing is too vicious.......
Well, I knew the identity of the mastermind so how shall I deal with him?
For the time being, I collected Super Oracle-chan and approached the mastermind for an attack.
KnockKnockKnock.
Uwa! The door of this room was knocked on from the outside suddenly and I was scared once again.
「What?」
「President, a contact has come in from the usual」
「Oh! Is that so, you´re ready to do that?」
The boss was called by a subordinate and left the room.
You are lucky. A little more and I would have punished him.
It is hard to put out my hands when he is with others. Therefore I decided to try it again later.
----------
「Welcome back Nii-chan, how was it?」
Aya greeted me with a bath.
「I already know the identity of the mastermind, so I intend to punish him, aiming for a time when I´m alone with him, to attack. Do you want to follow」
「Uh....... I´m not involved in it this time, so I don't care」
「What, you heartless person」
「That sort of, I want to eat Udon」
「Ee!?」
What! Even though I was struggling hard and Super Oracle-chan found the mastermind!
Come to think of it. Dinner will be ready soon.
Since there was no choice, I made Udon, Elena and Hilda who were in the offroad came out, so we ate the Udon together happily.
As we eat the delicious udon and relax.......
RingRing!!!!
My smartphone rings.
When I think from who, it is a call from the president.
I wonder what he wants at this time of the day.
「What is it, president, at such a time?」
「It is serious! Megumi is gone!」
「E!?」
It is already quite late time. It is not a time for a very minor girl to go out alone.
I hurry and check the【Tracking Beacon】.......
Megumi was in a ridiculous place.
