Chapter 26 - Chapter Twenty-Six Eisuke POV

(The night Yuki went with her father)

I am sitting in the lounge with Soryu and Ota. The others are out working on my plan to protect Yuki. I look at the security cameras to see if everyone is in place, now we have to wait for the Mad Hatter to let Yuki out of the basement.

Soryu: Eisuke, all my men are in place, and I just got the text from Mamoru that everything is in place on his end.

Ota: Baba should have already got into the Hokinoue mansion by now. Kiyoharo was able to give us access to all of Mr.Hokinoue's security cameras and the schedule for all of his security guards.

After making sure everything was in place, I get a call from Hiroki.

Eisuke: Everything is in place. Did everything go well on your end?

Hiroki: Yes, Chihaya will be at your hotel soon. Once he gets to the penthouse, say whatever you need to make him believe that you are still not helping Yuki. I will call you later.

Eisuke: I understand.

I hang up the phone and wait for Chihaya to get here. I get the feeling someone is watching me, and I look over at the only two people in the room.

Ota: Are you sure you can do this? This is not like the rest of the jobs you have done before.

Soryu: You shouldn't underestimate Eisuke. When he wants something, he will do anything to get it.

Eisuke: I am not doing this because they have information about my father and sister. I am doing this to make sure Yuki lives a life without fear.

They both look at me like am a different person. I won't put it past them if they start making jokes about this later. Just as I'm looking back down at my laptop, the door to the penthouse burst open.

Chihaya: How could you let that man take her?

I look up and see that it's Chihaya.

Eisuke: How did you get up here?

Chihaya: Did you expect me to gust seat around doing nothing as you were planning to give Yuki back to that man!!

Eisuke: He offered me a deal I could not refuse, and all I had to do was give him Yuki. I say that it is an easy decision.

Chihaya: So you rather expand your business than protect someone who is suffering.

Eisuke: What I do with my property is none of your business.

I get up from the couch, and before I can say anymore, Chihaya punches me in the face. I fall back into the couch. Soryu had already pinned him to the table when I look back up.

Eisuke: Get him out of here.

As I get back up, Soryu has already left with Chihaya. after a few seconds of silence, I hear laughter coming from the other side of the room.

Ota: It sucks that Soryu and I were the only ones to see that. If I am not wrong, he is the first person who has ever hit you. Hahaha!

I don't have the patience to deal with him right now. I leave the lounge and go down to the medical room, and get a bag of ice for my face.

~Time skip~

I am back in the lounge with Soryu. Ota had to leave and help Baba get the first set of evidence out of the Hokinoue's mansion. If things keep moving like this, we will have all the evidence we need by the end of this weekend. As I am watching the sacristy cameras, the door to the penthouse opens.

Hiroki: I see you played your part will.

Eisuke: Getting punched was not part of the deal. How are you going to pay for it?

Hiroki: No, it wasn't, but it helped with the act, so I will put it down as reckless behavior on our part. How is getting to evidence going?

Soryu: We already have a quarter of what we need. Based on how fast we are gathering it, we should have everything by the end of the weekend.

Hiroki: My boss was right to get you to help us.

Eisuke: Who is your boss? So far, the only person I have spoken to is you and Chihaya.

Hiroki: When the time is right, I will tell you, but as of right now, It is still too risky to let you know about everything else's that is going on. Now, if that's everything, I will be leaving. I have things to do before I can talk to you again.

With that, Hiroki leaves the penthouse.
