Chapter 38 - Am Rich

"Meerah has been listless for a while now, it's been two weeks and Hisoka hasn't returned."

"It's not only her Mira, Kora started worrying from the day Hisoka left, and even I am a little anxious I heard from Ange that Meerahs father, Shin has a habit to test her male servants and their lives would be on the line and she said most of them died."

I sat around the dining table and laid my head on my arms and faced to the left where Mira stood dusting the cupboard.

She froze hearing the last part of my statement.

"Oh there you girls are Lady Aborah has asked for you guys."

We jumped from our previous places and followed Ange to Meerah's room.

She was on the bed holding a mirror and her facial expression was blank, she looked like a person who got the shock of their life and couldn't recover.

Kora was standing beside her and her expression was similar but by the veins in her forehead I could tell she was angry.

We walked over to her and froze, what was on the mirror was Hisoka sleeping in a bed and a short haired girl was by the bed side wearing peculiar clothing.

...

HISOKA'S P.O.V.

"Hey Hisoka wake up it's morning."

"Oh Hitagari what's up?"

"Time for breakfast."

I sat up on the side of the bed I stretched the relive my body of the sleep fatigue. Hitagari was in her strange school clothing just as yesterday when we first met.

"You going to school this early?"

I asked as she led me out into the passage.

"It ain't early you sleep in pretty late."

"Is that so." She handed me a tooth brush a rag cloth and a bath soap.

"Go get washed up breakfast is ready..."

I took a shower and brushed my teeth then got with a suit I brought along with me in a bag.

I went to the kitchen. It was smaller compared to Meerah's kitchen, but it was still spacious, this house was like a small cube compared to The Aborah Mansion.

I ate eggs and loaf with coffee around a table with with Hitagari. I then went into the living room where I wad greeted by a barrage of photos with a younger Hitagari and her brother there were pictures of an adult male and female too.

"Hitagari are these your parents?" I showed her the photo I held onto as she grabbed her bag from the sofa fully prepare to leave the house.

Her expression dropped and I apologized for asking and insensitive question.

"Am going to school and My brother has business at the church and you can't get in contact with your travel partner I recommend  you go to the police station they should be able to assist you find your friend." I nodded ad an answer.

"Now let's go the station is on my way to school let's travel together I want to know more about you." She gave me a warm smile then she opened the door and stepped out.

...

"What your 17 just like me and you have finished school,Why not attend college!?"

"College?" I looked at her confused as we walked to what she called a bus stop.

"Wait what you don't what a college IS... it's somewhere you go to gain certifications so you can get a job."

"Did you brother go to college?"

"Naah he got called into the church and it seems to pay him well I have never seen him so happy about work... okay we are here the bus stop."

She stood under a Metal shed that was dirty and littered with garbage. We waited for about fifteen minutes until a gigantic metal carriage appeared a swarm of people exited it and she pulled me along as we boarded the carriage. I guess this one I called a bus.

"Do you have money to get around?"

"Yeah I think I do Shin gave me some paper and told me it your currency I replied pulling a big stack of paper that I had in my bag."

She got a shock expression on her face them pushed back down my hand with the paper in my bag and looked around at the passengers in the bus.

"Do you even know how much that is?-" she whisper in a silent tone.

"Not really, last time I counted it, I stopped about half way and at that time it was 12 000 paper when I counted."She went pale

"Just 1 of those notes equals 10 thousand Amtis. So 1000 of those is one million Amtis and you said half of the stack you have there is 12 000, that's, that's...."

"120 million..." I went pale just calculating that myself.

"That much and did you say your travel friend gave you what kind of job does your friend have?"

"Well he's don't work, well not anymore he was a kind but his daughter now has the throne."

Hitagari went pale.

"No wonder your are so unknowing about the world about you and you did have a weird feel about your you felt superior among people around you. I should have know you were a noble."

"Am afraid you have it wrong am no noble an just his daughter manservant although she say am her favorite person."

"You got to find Your friend if people find out how much u carry you will be hunted by thieves, don't tell a soul about your possession okay."

I nodded. The boss came to a halt and we exited.

"Now this is a police station legs go seek help."

We we're back on the streets, the was as crowded as usual but nothing stood out more the the building were standing in front of it was a two story building in white paint.

There was a big golden metal sign atop it, It write Central Police Station and in entrance and stair way was covered with people in weird clothing the had weird weapons on their waist along with other gadgets and devices I have never seen before.

"Come on let's go seek help."

Okay I responded as we accended the stairs and she greeted the weirdly clothed people along the way...
