"Sorry, Aunt," Aki smiled. "So, Kaito. What's your answer?"

That's an image I didn't need in my head.

"No," she interrupted. "Telling you now will save us from many troubles later on." She raised her head and fixed her eyes on mine. "I was a bully. My self-esteem was through the roof. I saw myself as a queen, not in a good way. I know I seem confident now but, back then, I didn't control it. I harassed many girls for their looks, for not being as popular as I was. Until I went over the line. I harmed one of them to a point no person should be harmed to and she… she…"

"But that's so boring. They make themselves seem more suspicious. If you ask for my opinion, which I guess is the reason why you're here, I'd tell you that they are the ones that leaked the information on purpose to get attention. And they accomplished it. There's just not enough information to know for sure and there probably never will be."

After working non-stop during the day, everyone headed home. Butcher picked up Sanae and Risa, and Astra and Umi headed out together, as did Aya and Tomokazu. I waited for them to leave the studio and Aki waited for me. We stepped out and took the elevator down to the ground floor. About to leave the building, I stopped in front of the giant screen at the entrance and looked through the available units.

Fewer and fewer reporters waited outside as time passed, but there still were a lot. It was almost time for me to go to court, so I researched a bit about attorneys. For my case, an attorney wasn't required, but the government would offer to hire one for you for twenty thousand terras; too expensive. Instead, I decided to call the suited man that had appeared at my door that morning. He only asked for five thousand, so I hired him.

He stared at me for a moment. "I'm truly sorry, Kaito; I can't. Even if Sanae and Risa registered today, which is impossible, you already violated the law. I would ask one of the government attorneys to help you, but that's going to hurt our reputation even more. And, being honest, I believe an attorney won't be of much help for your case. Still, try to find one. And I'd suggest Sanae and Risa declare they were willing to work without a contract. Hopefully, that will alleviate your infringement."

Should I even be here?

"Sanae, Risa, I can't be forgiven for what I did to you; it was the biggest mistake of my life. The only thing I will ask for is your friendship. I don't deserve even that, but I'm going to work hard to deserve it. I'm going to redeem myself not only with words but with actions."

"Because it's going to be impossible for me to find another job."

"Go," Butcher said. "Go and confront him once and for all. Let him know how much you've struggled and make him jealous that I had the pleasure of raising you."

"That's right, Ms. Celeste comes from another planet, one that was destroyed by a supernova twelve years ago. You may have heard about it before. As of now, she's the only one of her species known to have survived. When she turned sixteen, she underwent surgery to implant a HoloForm in her body to allow her to look like a cute girl all the time and she was permitted to legally register with that appearance. This won't be very appealing for the fans."
Sci-fi · Sosin
Did she…? No, it can't be.

"Your skin looks so well taken care of and your hair so smooth," Aki said. "Has Kaito told you about me?"
Sci-fi · Sosin
"So, you had no other choice than to apply for your little brother's new, small, business with the lowest salary possible."
