Chapter 16

Tuesday 11/08 8:45.

Inside the court, everyone had already arrived. Akemi was already positioned in his place as Maki-chan's defense. The trial just hasn't started yet, as everyone was waiting for Souta and Ryusaki's presence.

-Akemi. Souta and Ryu are taking a while. (Maki)

-Yes. (Akemi)

-Do you think something happened to them? (Maki)

-I do not know. (Akemi)

Why? For what reason would you help someone like me? I just treated you like crap from the moment we met. Why would you still go so far to help me? (Maki)

7 years ago, Maki arrived at his house after finishing school that day.

-I AM BACK!! (Maki)

-Shiiiiuuuuuuu! Be quiet. Your dad and I just got home from work, have a little more respect and keep your voice down. (mom)

-OK. Today I have a lot of fun, our room... (Maki)

-Fine. That's good. I'm busy at the moment. (mom)

Her mother goes up to her room with a cup of coffee. Maki is a little sad, but then sees her father sitting in an armchair reading a newspaper in the living room.

-Dad! Dad! You will not believe. (Maki)

-Not now. (father)

-What? Why?? (Maki)

-Your father is busy right now. (father)

-Not! I do not want it. I want to spend time with you and Mom. (Maki)

-I already said not now. (father)

-NOT! I WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU. (Maki)

-Maki let me go. (father)

-NOT! I WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU! I WANT TO SPEND MY TIME WITH YOU! (Maki)

-MAKI! (father)

-NOOOO! (Maki)

PATCHHHHH.

Maki ends up getting slapped by her father across the face.

-Huh? Paii?... (Maki)

-You really a bag to deal with. Why don't you stop us getting in the way? Can't you see that you're being a nuisance to your father and mother? (father)

-What... are you... saying... dad... I love you... I just wanted... (Maki)

-For God's sake, do something useful and never keep us late again! (father)

-... yes... (Maki)

The years went by.

-I arrived... (Maki)

-... (father and mother)

-Here's my newsletter. (Maki)

-Hmmmm, what does this story note mean? (mom)

-I ended up missing a silly question. But the other grades were perfect, my teacher said that everyone makes mistakes, he said he's never seen a student so...

-Ahhhhhhhh, but once sorry. Do you only know how to find a reason for your failures? (mom)

-No... (Maki)

-I hope that doesn't happen again then. Don't give me and your dad any more headaches. (mom)

-Yes... (Maki)

Maki leaves the room her parents were in, but she leans against the wall to hear what they would say when she was no longer around.

-Quite frankly. (father)

-I wonder why we decided to have her. She just gives us work. (mom)

-I told you it would be better to have an abortion. (father)

-How would I know that our baby would come out defective like that? If I knew that I would never have decided to have given birth to her. (mom)

The sparkle in Maki's eyes was completely erased after that day. She no longer had any reason to smile.

Inside the classroom, Maki sat at her desk listening to some conversations by her classmates who hadn't left yet.

-Huh? Do you mean that you prepared these cookies? (colleague 1)

-Yes, I made them one day for my mother as a gift. (colleague 2)

-They really are very good. (colleague 3)

-So, did she say something? (colleague 1)

-She said those were the best cookies she had ever eaten in her entire life. (colleague 2)

-Which?? Do not play. Hahahahahaha. (colleague 1)

-Hahahahahahaha. (colleague 2 and 3)

After that day at school, Maki decided to walk home instead of getting into his driver's car. She wanted to cheer up a little in town, but realized that wasn't possible. In the middle of the tour she saw several children playing in the park with their parents. Passing on the street, something catches his attention, on one of the TV screens there was a show by an idol. She was delighted with how well that girl sang.

"-Well, we are here now with the subject of the idol world of the moment. Mikoto-san. (hostess)

-Hello! (Mikoto)

-Mikoto-san, is it true that you support your family now? (hostess)

-Yes. My mother and I come from a poor family, we had almost no money to buy food. It was then that an opportunity presented itself to me. I became an idol and now I can give everything my mom always dreamed of but never got because of her condition. (Mikoto)

-I bet your mother is very proud of you. Hahahahahahaha. (hostess)

-Hahahahahahahahaaha. Stop, so I'm embarrassed. (Mikoto)

-But it's true, before this interview we talked a little bit with your mother. She told us she was blessed to have a daughter like you. That you were the person she loved most in the world and that she is most proud to be your mother. (hostess)"

An idea crossed my mind at that time. Could it be that if I also became a famous idol, would my parents be proud of me? Would they no longer see me as a nuisance? That's what went through my head that day. But I realized that I was wrong, that no matter what I did I would still be a nuisance. I'm useless and I only disturb the people around me, I only make them go through problems. Right now two people are risking their lives to try to help me and I can't do anything. I should never have been born. (Maki)

Half an hour after the trial started. Ryusaki and Souta were still trapped inside the cell while being watched by a man from the bandit group.

-Damn what are we going to do Ryusaki? The court must have already started the trial. (Souta)

-Be quiet you two! (bandit)

Damn it! I couldn't sleep through the night, thanks to this son of a bitch who snores in his s***. I can't believe it. (bandit)

Inside the room, a second man enters, speaks into the ear of the man who was watching them, and leaves.

-Ehhhhhhhh, by chance they are going to rob another store? (Ryusaki)

-Shut up! (bandit)

-And they left only one person here, I think it's natural that the most useless member is left behind. (Ryusaki)

-Haaa! Don't worry about it, the place they went is not for stealing. (bandit)

-Yeah, I imagine, but I didn't know I needed as many people as bodyguards to go to the black market. (Ryusaki)

-Idiot. Of course you need to, that place is very dangerous even for the biggest in the business. (bandit)

-Hmmmmm, so you mean they really went to the black market? (Ryusaki)

-Damn... cough cough, I don't know. I just replied that a lot of people were needed. Hahahahaha. (bandit)

In the court where the case against Maki-chan was taking place, Yosuke and Akemi were in the middle of an interrogation by one of the witnesses.

-You said you worked for twenty years as a janitor within the company, right? (Akemi)

-Who said that? (caretaker)

The janitor was a very old guy with a lot of shivering.

-You told us that. (Akemi)

-When did I say such a thing? (caretaker)

-Ten minutes ago. (Akemi)

-Lie. Ten minutes ago I was drinking water because I knew the trial was going to take a while and I couldn't leave when it started. (caretaker)

-Sir, but the trial started an hour ago. (Akemi)

Everyone was dead and completely tired of the janitor's delusions, even the judge and Akemi were extremely tired of always explaining the same thing to him.

-That's right, so you can continue. (caretaker)

-Very well, for this reason, you must be very familiar with the company's location and with the people... (Akemi)

-Why would I be? (caretaker)

-Because you worked on it for twenty years. (Akemi)

-Who??? (caretaker)

-My beloved saint! This will never end. (Yosuke)

Another person who was completely tired was the man watching Souta and Ryusaki.

-I do not believe that. (bandit)

-Very well your turn. (Souta)

-Hmmmmmm... TRICK! (Ryusaki)

-What do you mean truco?! WE ARE PLAYING POKER! (Souta)

-FORGET IT, LIKE GUY**** ARE YOU PLAYING CARDS IN THIS SITUATION?! (bad guys)

-Huh? And what else can we do? (Souta)

-THIS IS NOT THE PROBLEM, WE REVIEW YOU. WHERE DID YOU GET A DECK OF CARDS? (bad guys)

-Hey, if we're playing cards now it means they didn't search properly. (Souta)

-Impossible, we took off all their clothes and left them only in their underwear, the only place possible... huuuuhhhhhhhhh. You couldn't be talking, that you got that out of... (bad guy)

-We actually found it on the side of that table. (Souta)

-AHHHHHHHHHH! SO WHY DID YOU TALK ABOUT THE MAGAZINE? IS THAT YOU! YOU TALKED TOO MUCH SO FAR. WHY ARE YOU SO QUIET NOW? (bandit)

-Actually I'm thinking... can this sequence? (Ryusaki)

-WHERE THAT 3, 4 AND 6 IS A SEQUENCE?? AND FURTHER, THEY ARE ALL FROM DIFFERENT NIPES. AND THE LAST LETTER DOES NOT BELONG TO THIS DECK, IT IS A RED 6 OF THE ONE. (bandit)

-I see... UNO! (Ryusaki)

-YOU ARE NOT PLAYING THIS GAME. (bandit)

Frankly because the leader had to punish me like that, spending an hour with these two is worse than being tortured. (bandit)

-Hey Ryu, do you really think your plan will work? (Souta)

An hour ago.

"-Hey Souta, I had a plan. (Ryusaki)

-To escape from here? (Souta)

-Yes. (Ryusaki)

-So tell me. (Souta)

-For some reason the guard seems quite tired, it seems he couldn't sleep properly because of something. (Ryusaki)

-And then... what's the plan? (Souta)

-We will stress him out and make him even more tired, to the point where his body will unconsciously put him to sleep. (Ryusaki)

-I get it, but how are we going to do that? (Souta)

-I don't know, do you know of something that stresses a lot and that you wish it wasn't near you because it is so irritating? (Ryusaki)

This couldn't be more specific. (Souta)

-Just... there naturally, I'll think of something. (Souta)"

-There is a good chance this will work, look! He has already started to fall asleep a little. (Ryusaki)

The man was beginning to fall asleep, but the instant he went to sleep he woke up in despair. Until a moment he finally fell asleep.

-WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! THE PRISONERS RUN AWAY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING SLEEPING THERE!!! (Ryusaki)

-WHICH? WHERE'D THEY GO?! (bandit)

-HAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHH! Did you see his face Souta? Hahahahahahahahah! (Ryusaki)

I want to kill this brat! (Souta and bandit)

Back in court, where the lawyer trying to charge Maki-chan was talking to the witness.

-Sir, you told us that you contracted a hemorrhoid. (attorney)

-Yes, and what's wrong? (caretaker)

-This is a court on a corruption case. What the hell does your hemorrhoid have to do with it?! (attorney)

-It gave me shit. (caretaker)

-Sir, I believe this is diarrhea. (judge)

-No, it's just that every time I went to shit, blood came out of my... (caretaker)

-UUUGHHHHHHHH! (all)

-I'll throw up just imagining it. (person 1)

-Why man**** are they still asking questions to this old man?! (person 2)

-Someone please take him out of court, before I freak out!! (person 3)

-Silence! You know very well what the rules are to be followed! Although I also want him to leave... I mean... cough cough... although slow, his statement about the case is extremely important. (judge)

-Truth. (person 2)

-We're being very critical of him. (person 5)

-He's just someone who has suffered from age, we should be more understanding. (person 6)

-Yes! (person 7)

-Very well sir, you may continue. (judge)

-Who are you?! (caretaker)

Back to the cell where they were being held and watched by one of the bandits.

-Looks like he finally fell asleep. (Souta)

-BHMMMMB BHMM HB HB HMMMMMMM?! [Why did you tie a rope to my mouth?!] (Ryusaki)

-I'll take it off if you promise me you won't do anything funny just because it would be funny. (Souta)

-BMM BHHHM BHMMM. [Okay, I promise.] (Ryusaki)

-No, I do not believe. (Souta)

-BHMMMMMMMMMMMMM!? [What's up!?] (Ryusaki)

Souta ends up taking off Ryusaki's gag, even though he appears to be hesitant with this decision.

-Thanks. (Ryusaki)

-Very well, how are we going to get out of here now? (Souta)

-Here, take this. (Ryusaki)

Ryusaki tosses Souta a small piece of iron with a handle.

-What is that? (Souta)

-Pull the handle. (Ryusaki)

Souta does as Ryusaki asked and the iron expands to form a fighting staff.

-Where did you get that?! (Souta)

-I ended up seeing it at Maki's studio and decided to get it for myself. Cool huh?! (Ryusaki)

Have you caught a habit of stealing everything you see?

-What do I do with it? (Souta)

-Have you never watched a movie? You just get the key from the guard's pocket using this. (Ryusaki)

-And why didn't you do it instead of handing me the stick to do? (Souta)

-Do you really want me to do this? (Ryusaki)

-No way! You would end up hitting him on purpose. (Souta)

-Then do it soon and stop complaining. (Ryusaki)

-Beauty. (Souta)

Souta stretches the bat close to the guard and starts trying to pull the keys, but he wasn't reaching right, it was very difficult for him until he accidentally misses and pokes the guard in the belly with the bat, making him start to open the eyes.

-Ahhhhhhhh. Do something Ryu! (Souta)

-Ehhhhhhhhh... "Nana, baby, Cuca is coming to pick up. Dad went to the farm, Mom went to work." (Ryusaki)

The thief slowly closed his eyes again, but not completely.

-To be continued! He is almost asleep. (Souta)

-There's nothing else, that was all. (Ryusaki)

-Which?! Invent anything. (Souta)

-Ehhhhhhhhh. I'm watching you, come sleep soon, what the hell am I singing? (Ryusaki)

-That was horrible... (Souta)

-Mom... (bad guy)

-He liked!! (Souta)

-Excellent! He fell asleep quickly picks up the key. (Ryusaki)

Souta finally manages to get the key to open the cell. He and Ryusaki escape from that room and run away. However, before leaving, Ryusaki starts checking some notes and a phone that was on a table.

-What are you doing, let's go! (Souta)

-I'm done. Let's go! (Ryusaki)
