Chapter 17:
Cellular Redo
After mending our relationship with Iwasaki, we both thought of a counterattack to her older brother. It turns out Iwasaki doesn't want to transfer to another school even though she's about to before the end of summer vacation. So in order to prevent that we need to find a way to stop it. Our first step is to find the spys around campus who are keeping an eye on Iwasaki and her close friends, including me. While walking inside the hallway I was tailed by an unknown person. I later bumped onto a farmilar girl, who I believe was helping in preparation for the concert. I later found out that she is acting suspicious as if she was collecting information about me.
Iwasaki and I are currently in the hallway standing across two sides of our accused spy. In this situation her escape routes are blocked the only way through is from me or Iwasaki. But I highly doubt that she wants to make a commotion, then again this is a huge gamble again. She could just attack one of us and start running. Be that it may, I think she might attack me since there is a possibility that she's working for the older brother and she wouldn't do anything to harm Iwasaki. But I can't let my guard down.
"Now tell us, who are you?" I said with a serious tone.
"Now see as if that the two of you had trapped me in both sides. It seems that I have no choice then." the accused spy says as we are anxious of what she's going to say.
"Lady Tamako Iwasaki, I'm sorry for showing my presence with my informal attire. But as you might have guessed, I am one of your brothers high ranking maids. My name is Shina Matsuyama." she says as she bows to Iwasaki.
"So my prediction was right, you are a spy, huh." I said.
"When have you been spying on me?" Iwasaki went straight to the point and asked her.
"I have been asked to surveillance you from day one of your arrival to this school." she answers.
"And how many are you in this school? " she asked again.
"In order to not cause suspicions I was the only one tasked to do this. And since my master, your brother, only knew just recently, he lacked man power to form a unit to watch over you."
"I think just one person is already too much, but an entire unit is kinda going too far." I remarked on her answer.
"I see. Anything else you need to tell us?" Iwasaki asked her one more question.
"There is nothing in particular." she answered.
"So we caught our spy, so now what?" Iwasaki asked me.
"Hmm, Can you give us contact with him?" I asked.
"Unfortunately, he is out of the country for an important seminar overseas. And I don't have any information when will he come back." she answered me back.
"I see, so the guy is out of the country. Great. Well there's nothing else on my side as well." I said.
So now we know that Matsuyaba is our only spy. And the he is out of the country already now what's our move.
"Just message me when he gets back there is something I want to personally talk to him about." I added.
"I'm sorry ma'lady but even though you have found out that I have been sarvailing you, I'm still not going to stop and I'm going to add this to my report." she said to Iwasaki.
"It's fine. You can add everything that has went down here." I said.
"Wait is that even safe? He might use this to make things even worse than they already are." Iwasaki said.
"Are you sure everything." she asked.
"Yes everything from the last detail I want him to get the message when I meet him." I said.
"As you wish." she said.
"Wait one more thing. Why did you confront me, if you where tasked to surveillance Iwasaki. I doubt that it's just mear chance. That doesn't add up." I asked
"Just yesterday I was tasked to act as your mistress in order to make miss Iwasaki see you as a scumbag in order to diminish any lingering feelings she might have for you. I might have done it today if you haven't caught me." she said.
"Talk about insurance. He is really good. But it doesn't make sense I already....... I see. Also can you talk like how you did before I feel uncomfortable when you talk like that." I said.
"Is it fine ma'lady?" she asked Iwasaki.
"It is. After all you would blow your cover if everyone sees you out of character." Iwasaki says.
"Then in that case. Can we exchange Line ID" she says with a big grin in her face and Iwasaki and I are both shocked.
"Why all of a sudden."I asked.
"Wait a minute, you don't even have MY ID. How come you get to have hers. " she complains.
"Oh, how interesting. You don't have your pressious girlfriend's contact numbers? How rude can you be?" Matsuyama mocks me.
"Hey, give me a break. Things have been pretty busy in the last few months that I forgot it's all." Honestly I even surprised myself how come I don't have her contact info.
We then exchanged our contact information and went our separate ways. Iwasaki and I went to the club room to gauge the situation.
"So far we know that Matsuyama is the only spy guarding you in the school." I said.
"But what I don't get is why did you tell her to report everything. Isn't that kinda stupid." she asked.
"That maybe true. But I have a plan. Even though it's a gut feeling, trust me on this one." I said.
"Aright fine. As long as you don't risk our plan for nothing. I really don't want to leave you guys."
"Don't worry. I did promise, didn't I. I'll resolve this and if push comes to shove, I'll force him to refuse." I said.
"I doubt that would ever happen." she chuckles and I follow.
It has been about 4 days since we found out about Matsuyama. And lately nothing has really happened in particularly. And suddenly my phone rang to notice me of an incoming message on Line.
"Come meet me at the back of the jym after school there's something important that I have to tell you." Message from Matsuyama.
"Sure" I replied.
I could only guess what's up with that sudden text u got. It's probably going to be about the older brother.
Finally after school. I rushed out the door to meet up with Matsuyama. To be honest I'm anxious about this meet, in fact I feel like I want to ditch it thorough and through.
"You came. Well what do you think? " Matsuyama asked.
"If it's about your boobs, I've already said that I'm sorry okay." I responded.
"No not something like that. I'm talking about this situation. It looks like I've sent you a message to meet me in so that I could confess my feelings for you right." she says with a smirk on her face.
"Then if that's the case then I would have gave you the biggest rejection you'd ever hear."I remarked.
"Why isn't that harsh. You know a kind of response would hurt a young maiden's heart. " she replied on my remark.
"Just skip to the point, why did you drag me out here for? Is it to waste my time, because it's sure as hell walking." I added another remark.
"My aren't you impatient. One sec." she took out her phone to call someone is what it looks.
"Hello..... Yes.... Yes.... He's with me now here." She handed me here phone.
"Hello"
"You're more observent than I've expected. Figuring out Shako is one of my attendents."
"You're giving me way more credit than I deserve."
"Haaah I guess, Matsuyama mosly was not giving out her clue as professionaly as possible.
"Anyway, this is not a good place for us to talk. Why don't we meet somewhere else in person. Huh."
"Sounds good where do you want to meet."
"You tell me, I'm not rich at all."
"Of course you aren't. How about the PALACE CAFFE in town."
"Sounds good, meet you there then".
I ended the conversation over there and quickly threw her phone.
The next day I went to the palace caffe. The building is huge. Is this a caffe or company. Upon the entrance there was a butler who accompanied me to my table.
"I'm grad you've made it." the brother says to me.
"What is this, your first date or something. I'm sorry, but I an not into guys. I said and he laughed.
"Anyway about Iwasaki." I continued.
"I've heard everything about her. And while where in the that subject, you really had fun fondling Matsuyama's chest huh." he mocked me and it worked
"That stupid girl when I said everything I didn't mean you should tell them about that." I said.
"But I'm surprised that you're still persisting, after all that I've said. Man you're so annoying." he says.
"You'd expect nothing from me. I'll anoy you as long as it takes until you let Iwasaki stay at our school. After all I made a promise." It would seem I have broken his facade a little. He seem to be angry.
"Hoh really, what makes you think I'm going to change my mind? You gotta be insane." he said.
"I. don't just think, I just know that you would." I said.
"You're really are amusing guy you know that. But this is not some kind of game." he says with an intimidating tone.
"Tell me something, why did you just suggest me I should stay away from her. It was kind of interesting since you look to be those hot shot business men who always has an ulterior motive even to his family." I explained.
"Where are you getting at? " he asked.
"I'm just saying that you're a kind brother is all." I said.
"I'm not following." he said.
"Take my situation for example. When I was talking to Matsuyama earlier. It donged upon me. Why would you collect my surface data instead of my entire background data? It's easy you only did that in order to frighten me by flooking me rather than chasing me out of town or something. You did all of that to fool me and Iwasaki to hate you. Doing it in order to protect her no matter the cause In order to protect her.
"Like I said. You really are an interesting person. You got that one right on the money. I did all of that to protect her from my family's influences and curruption. But if she stays in that school they'd grab her at ease. At least, I could protect her." he said.
" You make a compelling point. In my opinion, I think transferring her to that school is more dangerous. Wouldn't they infiltrate her gaurds and take her out then?"
"That's a possibility. But I'll at least know how to find her. I don't want anything to happen to my little sister."he says.
"I'll be fine." a voice came from the table behind me was from Iwasaki. She then faced our side.
"Tamako. What are you doing here." he asked.
"She was here this whole time in order to here why is she being treated like how she did." he looked surprised as I said that.
"I guess the cat is out of the bag." he says while he chuckles a little bit.
"Look while what you're doing is applausable, but didn't you think that you're taking her to the same route as where you where talking her far away from." I said.
"Bother, thank you for what you have done for me up until now and I appreciate it. But you should have a little faith in me. I'm not a little kid anymore." she said as she bows.
"How you've grown. Fine I will cancel the transfers. But I'll increase the surveillance quality on you." he said.
"I think that will be fine brother. " she said. And just like that we won a battle of her freedom. But something tells me that we haven't won the war yet.
