Haru talked with Runa then suddenly his phone vibrated and he opened and saw that he received a chat from Utaha.
Utaha: "Are you free?"
Haru: "I am free."
Utaha: "Let's have a date."
Haru: "....."
Haru: "You're asking someone who has a girlfriend for a date?"
Utaha: "Why not? Based on Wikipedia, a date is an appointment of different genders to meet each other, there is nothing wrong with it."
"...."
Haru thought for a while and asked, "Where?"
Utaha: "New coffee shop in this location." She sent the location of the coffee shop on the chat and said, "The coffee isn't as good as yours, but it is enough."
Haru: "You don't want to go to my cafe?"
Utaha: "There are a lot of people there. I want to talk about something with you."
Haru: "Alright, I'll be there."
Utaha: "I am waiting."
Haru wanted to close his phone and saw that Runa had been looking at him. He knew that this girl couldn't read his chat since she was too small.
"Your girlfriend?" Runa asked.
"If you mean girlfriend is a female friend then it is right," Haru answered.
Runa looked at him and asked, "She isn't a student from this school?"
"No, why? Are you curious?" Haru asked with a smile.
Runa snorted and said, "You sure have guts to have a date when you'll be facing Tougami-senpai tomorrow."
"Why not? Why should I be tense?" Haru asked.
"Tougami-senpai isn't simple. I am sure that his bet would be very high," Runa said.
"Like 1 billion yen?" Haru asked.
"It should be more, the money he has produced from his poker den is very much. I'm sure tomorrow's gamble isn't that simple," Runa said.
"The more money the better," Haru said.
"Why do you need so much money?" Runa asked.
"In this economic crisis, there are a lot of chances and I'll enter the world stage of a gamble," Haru said.
"World stage of a gamble?" Runa raised her eyebrow.
"It'll be very interesting, just watch me," Haru said with a smile.
"......" Runa looked at Haru then looked away from him. She had to admit that this guy was very attractive. She shook her head and said, "What kind of gamble is that?"
"It's a secret," Haru said.

Haru was riding his scooter to meet Utaha. He had met her from time to time when she came to his cafe. He rode his scooter and saw a lot of people who were wearing suits sitting down on the park with a gloomy expression and hanging their heads down. He knew that those people had been laid off by the company where they were working. He remembered that it was because of the Lehman Brothers. He was sure that in October the company would file for bankruptcy.
Tomorrow was his chance to gather money to start his hunt, he knew that he might be late to start on Lehman Brothers, but he had another chance, for example, an Iceland. He knew that he might not be able to match with those predators who were living in Wall Street, but at least his cake would be quite delicious.
Haru had arrived at the location of the coffee shop. "Cat's Eyes." He saw the name of the cafe and entered this place.
"Welcome!"
Haru nodded and saw a cute girl greet him.
"How many people?"
"I am going to meet my friend," Haru said.
"Friend?"
Haru looked around and saw Utaha who was sitting on the edge of the cafe while looking at the window. He knew that the girl didn't realize that he had arrived in this place. "That girl is my friend." He pointed his finger at Utaha.
"Oh, you're Utaha's boyfriend?"
"..." Haru looked at this girl for a while and said, "If a boyfriend is a male friend then it's, right."
"Hahaha, you're funny. You can sit first, I'll give you the menu after this."
Haru nodded and walked toward Utaha. He smiled and could see that Utaha was a bit bored. He thought about teasing her for a bit. "Beautiful girl, if you're that bored how about I entertain you for a bit?" He sat down in front of Utaha and had changed his hair color then took off his glasses.
Utaha wanted to say something but stopped when she saw Haru's face. She wasn't sure why, but she felt that Haru had become attractive then she saw him wearing a uniform. "....."
"You have entered Hyakkaou Private Academy?!" Utaha was surprised.
"For one month, I am not going to stay there for a long time," Haru said and saw that the waitress had come to their table. He looked at the menu and said, "One blue mountain please." He knew that this coffee was expensive, but it was alright with the money that he had gotten from his gambling activity earlier.
"Yes, please wait for a while," the waitress said.
Haru knew that 90% of blue mountain coffee from Jamaica had been bought by this country for the past 30 years and it was a downright monopoly, but he didn't really care about that since he could enjoy it.
"Are you sure that you're going to buy that?" Utaha asked. She knew that the blue mountain coffee was very expensive.
"It's alright, do you want me to order you too?" Haru asked. He wasn't sure why, but he felt that this girl's condition was a bit weird.
"Do you have that much money?" Utaha asked.
Haru smiled and said, "If you want, I can take care of you, Megumi and Sora along with your family and Megumi's family together."
Utaha smiled and said, "You want to make me your girlfriend too?"
"........"
"I was just kidding, why have you called me suddenly?" Haru asked. Even though he knew that Utaha was attractive, her condition was a bit weird. He wanted to ask whether something was happening to her.
Utaha snorted and said "Coward."
Haru twitched his lips at this girl and held himself. He was wondering what this girl wanted to do.
"Haru, do you have a job for me?" Utaha asked.
