"Boss, can I ask you some questions?" Seri asked.
Haru looked at Seri and nodded. "If you have a question then you can ask away."
"How old are you?" Seri asked. She felt that Haru was very young even though he seemed very mature, but she could see that he wasn't in his 20's yet.
"Me? I am 15 years old," Haru said with a smile.
"..." Seri opened her mouth in "O" shape when she heard his real age. "Really?"
"Yes," Haru said. "You don't need to think too much about it."
Seri sighed and nodded. She decided to not think too much about her new boss.
"Right, don't tell anyone that you have seen me before," Haru said.
Seri blushed when Haru mentioned their meeting. She remembered that her neighbor should be a teacher and in her middle 20's yet this guy who was in his 15 had sex with that woman. She sighed and said, "I am not going to say anything about your private life."
"Thank you," Haru said. "If you become an actress or a model, I'm sure that you'll become popular, right away."
Seri smiled and said, "Thank you for your praise, but I have decided to do this job."
"Oh, right, after you have made your team, I hope that you can help me to acquire some company," Haru said.
"Which company?" Seri asked with a serious expression.
"I have decided to buy a game company, you can help me later with the administration later," Haru said.
Seri nodded and said, "Sure, is it some famous company?"
Haru shook his head and said, "No, it's just a cheap and almost bankrupt company."
"......." Seri raised her eyebrow and seemed a bit surprised.
"I have been very interested in the game and I want to own a game company since making it by myself is too long," Haru said.
"How much is this company?" Seri asked.
"It's not expensive, it's only 300 million yen," Haru said.
Seri twitched her lips but nodded. "I understand."
"There are also two other things too," Haru said.
"Are you going to acquire some companies again?" Seri asked.
Haru nodded and said, "Yes, I want to buy a Media Factory, a publishing company that is also a subsidiary of Recruit Co., Ltd."
Seri nodded and said, "I understand, is there another company that you want to acquire?"
Haru thought for a while and said, "FC Tokyo. If possible I want to buy it."
Seri thought for a while and asked, "Boss, what is your exact wealth?"
"300 million USD or so," Haru answered.
"......"
"I have a use for this 100 million USD and I can only spare 200 million to takeover Shin-Keisei Electric Railway," Haru said.
Seri nodded in response. She had learned that Haru had become rich after speculating on a gold price from the information that she had gotten Ayase. "FC Tokyo? A football club in Tokyo? Why are you interested in it?"
"To chase a girl," Haru said.
"....."
"Sorry?" Seri twitched her lips and didn't believe what she had heard.
"There is this one girl that I have thought is quite special and I want her to be happy," Haru said.
Seri frowned and said, "Boss, you can't make a business decision on a feeling."
Haru shook his head and said, "I understand that and you don't need to worry since sports club is a profitable business."
"I'll research this club right away," Seri said.
"You don't need to be in a hurry since I am not that hasty for this football club. More importantly, you need to manage the railways, game companies, and publishing companies," Haru said.
"Leave it to me," Seri said with a confident tone. She wanted to ask about Haru's relationship with women, but she knew that it wasn't good to ask something private. Their relationship was a business only and even though she had to admit this guy was very attractive. She really sighed at the luck of her neighbor who could make her boss into a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship.
Haru in deep thought once again and felt that it wasn't a moment to buy an energy company. Even though he was very interested in it, there was a lot of trouble to acquire it. Then there was also an incident that would happen in 2011.
On the contrary, a railway company was very stable and even became more prosperous in the future since it was the main transportation in this country. 40 million passengers (counted twice if transferred between operators) use the rail system daily (14.6 billion annually), with the subway representing 22% of that figure, with 8.66 million using it daily.
It was a very scary number and if he was able to control those major railways.
"......"
However, it didn't mean that he had given up the energy company, but he had decided to wait for price of the stock to plummet before he started to acquire those companies.
Haru really thought that his money wasn't enough. "I'll go out to visit the game company, do you want to follow me?"
"Sure," Seri said without hesitation since she also wanted to check this place.
"You might need to go with my secretary since there are only 2 seats in my car," Haru said and went out from his room.
"Are you done with your meeting?" Runa asked while looking at him. She was sitting down together with Ritsu while playing the game console.
Haru nodded and said, "Let's go and visit the game company."
Runa nodded and said, "Let's go."
"Ritsu, you have brought a car, right? Can you also bring Seri with you?" Haru asked.
Seri wasn't sure why she didn't mind being called by her first name after just the first meeting.
"Why not?" Ritsu said and looked at Seri. "Seri, nice to meet you. My name is Ritsu."
"Hello Ritsu-san, nice to meet you," Seri said.
"Let's go," Haru said since he had something important to do after visiting the game company. He had received a call from Kirari earlier and he needed to watch her match.
