Chapter 6 Hard Working Delinquent

????: "Anyway I'm Hoshino Toshiaki by the way."

They shake hands and Hoshino used a bit of force.

Natsuki: "Okay? I don't need to introduce myself since you already know me."

Hoshino: "Well yeah, be careful."

Natsuki: "Huh? Why?"

Hoshino: "Eh, Hanako didn't tell you about the letter?"

Natsuki: "Nope I've never heard any letter from her or anything like that."

Hoshino: "Is that so? Anyway, be careful, then I'll be on my way."

Natsuki: "Yeah... Weird."

(Natsuki: "What's the deal with that guy? And it's red just how strong did he hold my hand?")

Anyway, I better head home and rest it's such a tiring day.

As Natsuki head home Hoshino has a smile on his face.

Hoshino: "So that's Natsuki Kanzaki huh? Interesting."

(Hoshino: "But she didn't show her letter to him? Why?"

Anyways My plan is going well for now but we don't know what will happen any minute so I need to tell the others too to be cautious.

The day ends there Natsuki eats and then goes to bed.

The next morning Mitsuri is waiting again for Natsuki to arrive until...

*motorcycle sounds*

Motorcycle sounds echo and there is one approaching her...

Natsuki: "Hey good morning Mitsuri."

Mitsuri: "Eh? Natsuki?"

Natsuki: "Yeah, didn't I tell you yesterday that my motorcycle broke? I got it this morning in the repair shop and it's good to go. Hop in."

Mitsuri: "What?? Are you telling me to ride that thing?"

Natsuki: "Of course what else? Come on wear this helmet."

Natsuki gives a helmet to Mitsuri.

Mitsuri: "Are you sure it's safe? And where did you get this anyway?"

Natsuki: "Ah you mean this? My mother got this for me on my birthday and it's been my partner since then."

Mitsuri: "Okay? Are you sure it's safe?"

Natsuki: "Just how many times do I need to tell you that it is?"

Mitsuri: "Okay if you say so..."

Mitsuri then hops onto the bike and then."

Natsuki: "Okay hold tight lets go!"

The bike starts and...

Mitsuri: "Natsuki!! Not so fast what if I fall?"

Natsuki: "That's why I tell you to hold tight and it's my normal speed anyway."

Mitsuri: "Eh? But it's fast... Ahhhh."

Mitsuri keeps shouting.

Until she gets used to it.

Natsuki: "Finally calmed down?"

Mitsuri: "Yeah, that scared me but now that you tell me it's a normal speed."

Natsuki: "Then would you like to be faster?"

Mitsuri "No no, I'm not ready for that yet but maybe next time."

Natsuki: "Well if you say so."

After that, they arrived at school.

The students are in a commotion again at a new sight since Mitsuri and Natsuki are riding a bike together to school.

Natsuki: "Another commotion?"

Mitsuri: "Be used to it, anyway let's go to class."

Natsuki: "Yeah, yeah."

We arrived in class just in time before the bell rings.

Mitsuri: "Let's talk again at lunch."

Natsuki: "Okay, *sigh*

Hanako: "Natsuki good morning what's with the sigh?"

Natsuki: "Oh Hanako good morning, I've got something to tell you did you recently receive a letter from Hoshino Toshiaki?"

Hanako: "Hoshino Toshiaki? Ah, the letter so that's the H.T. In the letter."

Natsuki: "So you did get one let me read it."

Hanako: "Yeah, it's here."

Hanako hands the letter to Natsuki.

Natsuki: "Dear, Hanako-san. I know that you're friends with Natsuki I'm not threatening you or something but be careful. He's being a threat to us -H.T."

Natsuki: "Threat me? Who's them anyway?"

Hanako: "I don't know maybe they're from other gangs?"

Natsuki: "I'm familiar with the other gangs but this is the first time I heard about this Hoshino Toshiaki guy and I met him yesterday."

Hanako: "You met him? Where?"

Natsuki: "In town, after I take Mitsuri home he stops me and introduces himself and told me to be careful. Which is quite weird."

Hanako: "Hmm, isn't there someone who can help you with that? Or ask someone if they know this guy?"

Natsuki: "Let me think. I'm not a member of any gang so I can't find someone who can give me intel about this guy."

Hanako: "Anyway let's talk about this later class is about to start."

Natsuki: "Good point later then."

(Natsuki: "Who can I ask about this information?")

??: "Anyway Natsuki-san I've got your back if you want me to look at anyone you need intel about just contact me here."

Natsuki: "Oh yeah there's one and he also gave me his contact number what was his name again? If I remember Morita Shin."

Lunch break comes.

Natsuki: "Mitsuri and Hanako can you go ahead of me to the cafeteria? I just need to contact someone."

Both of them nod and then I Dialed the number.

Shin: "Hello? Morita Shin here who are you?"

Natsuki: "Oh Shin do you remember me?"

Shin: "Ohh if isn't Natsuki-san anything you need from me?"

Natsuki: "Can you help me find more information about this person?"

Shin: "Hmmm, well if I can I'll do who is it anyway?"

Natsuki: "Hoshino Toshiaki."

Shin: "Heh, you already met him?"

Natsuki: "What do you know about him?"

Shin: "Well yeah I mean they're one of the new gangs rising to the top currently with their strength."

Natsuki: "Gang? Do you know what is the name of their gang?"

Shin: "I'm still now sure about this but I think it's called something like white?"

Natsuki: "White?"

Shin: "I'll take it I'm gonna go and try to know more about them."

Natsuki: "Thanks by the way be careful."

Shin: "Yeah, don't worry I'm used to this and why would you need information about them anyway?"

Natsuki: "They told me to be careful so I'm just getting ready if something happened."

Shin: "Then you're the one who needs to be careful I heard that they're quite strong even if they only started recently."

Natsuki: "Yeah yeah, I've got this."

Shin: "Still it's going to be dangerous if you're going to fight with them on your own. Why don't you start a gang by yourself anyway?"

Natsuki: "Me? Start a gang? Impossible I always fight alone and I don't need any gang members."

Shin: "I predicted that you were going to say that as expected anyway bye I'll contact you again if I gain any new information about them."

Natsuki: "Yeah, thanks again, Shin."

The call ended and Natsuki headed to the cafeteria.

Mitsuri: "You're late who did you call anyway?"

Natsuki: "A friend I'm just asking for a favor."

Hanako: "Ah about that?"

Natsuki: "Well yeah I thought I need to deal with them sooner or later anyways."

Mitsuri: "What are you guys talking about?"

Hanako: "Natsuki can we tell her about that?"

Natsuki: "Yeah, whatever she's going to end up finding about it either way."

Hanako: "Lately I've received a letter and it contains this."

Hanako showed the letter to Mitsuri.

"Dear, Hanako-san. I know that you're friends with Natsuki I'm not threatening you or something but be careful. He's being a threat to us -H.T."

Mitsuri: "What's with this letter be careful?"

Natsuki: "Looks like some new gang I heard."

Hanako: "New gang? So there's going to be a fight again?"

Natsuki: "Something like that if they're out for me I'll take care of them."

Mitsuri: "Fight again?"

Hanako: "Don't worry about that Mitsuri-chan it's normal for him to always get involved in that."

Mitsuri: "Well he's the troublemaker anyways. But be careful."

Natsuki: "I will I don't have to guard you on weekends right?"

Mitsuri: "Yes, I mostly spend my weekends at home anyway so you only need to guard me on weekdays."

Natsuki: "Good, then I'll try to end this with them in this free time."

Meanwhile, Hoshino Toshiaki and his gang are just finished dealing with other gangs.

Hoshino: "They're a weak bunch how can these guys be called gangs?"

Hoshino Toshiaki and his gang are recently making a commotion destroying other gangs that their leader got the nickname "Emperor."

Destroying Everyone who's in his way whoever is it.

Hoshino: "Anyway we're finished here but before we disgroup I need to tell you guys something."

They all listen and...

Gang Members: "Yeah boss what is it!?"

Hoshino: "Be careful around Natsuki Kanzaki you got that? Don't make a move yet unless I ordered it understood?"

Gang Members: "Understood!"

Hoshino: "Dismissed!"

Hoshino: "Just wait Natsuki I'll destroy you."

After that the lunch break ends and they returned to their classrooms.

(Natsuki: "Hmmm, who's Hoshino Toshiaki and what's his deal?")

Teacher: "Natsuki pay attention to class!"

Natsuki: "Sorry about that."

I turned to my side and find Mitsuri glaring at me.

Natsuki: "It's not my fault."

Mitsuri: "Hmph..."

Natsuki: *sigh*

The school ends and it's time to go home.

Natsuki: "Let's go Mitsuri."

Mitsuri: "Yeah."

Natsuki: "You don't have any plans today?"

Mitsuri: "Nothing I need to do my homework now and it's the weekend tomorrow so you don't need to guard me."

Natsuki: "Okay if you say so come on let's ride my bike again."

Mitsuri: "Right right that again."

Natsuki: "Do you have a problem with it?'

Mitsuri: "Nope I don't have."

Natsuki: "Okay..."

Mitsuri: "Say Natsuki why are you fighting?"

Natsuki: "Huh what's with that question?"

Mitsuri: "Just answer it."

Natsuki: "Well because I need to and as long as I can remember I'm always fighting."

Mitsuri: "That's the only reason?"

Natsuki: "Yup, that's all there's to it."

Mitsuri: "What if I tell you to..."

Natsuki: "Tell me what?"

Mitsuri: "Nothing... Anyway, let's go."

After that, they went home together silently not speaking a word with each other.

The next morning Mitsuri planned to get her hair cut.

So they went to the town's hairdresser.

Natsuki: "Welcome ma'am do you have an appointment today?"

Mitsuri: "What Natsuki?"

Natsuki: "That voice Mitsuri? What are you doing here?"

Mitsuri: "What else I have an appointment today.

Owner: "Ohh, welcome Mitsuri-sama did you know Natsuki?"

Mitsuri: "Of course, he's my classmate and bodyguard."

Owner: "What a coincidence and what? Bodyguard, did you say? Natsuki you're working that kind of job too?"

Natsuki: "Well I need money so I accept it."

Owner: "Just how many part-time jobs do you have?"

Natsuki: "There's only two left here and being a bodyguard I got fired yesterday so..."

Mitsuri: "Ehh, you're working here?"

Natsuki: "Yeah..."

Owner: "He's such a hard worker that's why I hired him here, anyway it's the usual right?"

Mitsuri: "Yeah."

Owner: "Come here. Natsuki, get the equipment at the back."

Natsuki: "Okay."

After that, while Mitsuri is getting her hair fixed Natsuki is helping a customer.

Owner: "Oh curious about him?"

Mitsuri: "A little he's a delinquent and he has too many part-time jobs."

Owner: "Well yeah that's him he's always working hard."

Mitsuri: "Almost too much."

Owner: "Of course, he needs to work hard since his mother got sick he's the one paying for their expenses."

Mitsuri: "Do you know her mother?"

Owner: "Just a little their regulars here before he starts working here."

Mitsuri watched as Natsuki works looks like he was enjoying it.

Owner: "It's finished is it good?"

Mitsuri: "Yeah, it's good thanks here for the payment."

Owner: "Thanks, Natsuki!"

Natsuki: "What is its owner?"

Owner: "Mitsuri's hair is done."

Natsuki: "Okay do what of it?"

Owner: "Come on have a clue I'll handle that so see Mitsuri off."

Natsuki: "Okay??"

Mitsuri: "You don't need to..."

Natsuki: "Well It's the owner's order let's go."

I escort Mitsuri to the exit.

Mitsuri: "It's fine here see you at school."

Natsuki: "Yeah, see ya."

Mitsuri: "Natsuki..."

Natsuki: "What is it?"

Mitsuri: "Good luck at your work." *smile*

Natsuki: "Yeah, thanks I'll be going then."

Mitsuri: "Bye."

Natsuki: "Bye."

After that Natsuki gets back to work until it's finally time to go home.

Natsuki: "Then owner I'll be on my way."

Owner: "Yeah, good work be careful on the way home."

Natsuki: "Yeah yeah, you too."

Natsuki: "Maybe I'll ride my bike for a while."

Natsuki then drives her motorcycle a little bit.

*broom* vroom*

He stops at a convenience store to buy dinner and then...

Chapter 6 ends.
