Pincer Attack
H-hey, Luna...
It's good that we're causing a disturbance like you said...
But if this escalates any further... Won't it become a serious problem?
What? What sort of problem?!
The problem is that I got covered in dust because of those guards!
Physical confrontation level increasing.
At this rate, external intervention for public order maintenance is inevitable.
NOA Public Security, Town Guard!
Both sides, stand down!
Whoa... what on earth is going on here?
Th-the Town Guard's here...?
Ahem, well, I would prefer not to get involved in anything more troublesome...
Come to think of it, it's not like I absolutely need to know what's going on inside...
Come to think of it, isn't it about time for dinner...?
Oh dear, I should've gone to the bank before it closed...
Come to think of it, I might've left the lights on at home...
Aagh! You can't just leave now!
Men in black suits, freeze! Drop your weapons!
...And you three over there.
Could you come talk with me for a moment?
...Excuse me for a moment.
(Gasp!)
Did we grow too relaxed with fewer guards around?
Perhaps because we were wandering around without playing any casino games, one of the guards approached us.
Ah, I don't have any business with the gentleman...
But you two bunny girls over there.
I've never seen your faces before... When did you start working here?
This is bad.
U-um, are you referring to us? We are... well, starting today...
N-new recruits! P-please take care of us!
New recruits? No one mentioned it to me.
Please wait here a moment.
(...We'll knock him out! Scarlet!)
(Okay!)
Just as Claire and Scarlet were about to lunge forward to knock the guard out—
No need for that, not at all!
A voice from behind suddenly stopped them.
Behind us stood the middle-aged man in the suit who had been looking for his martini.
He was holding a drink in one hand.
...Looks like he finally got his martini.
No need to make a fuss.
But I still need to confirm...
It's only natural that you wouldn't know.
These two are...
This gentleman's... Personal bunny girls!
A heavy silence fills the air.
The guard stood there, jaw dropped, staring at us without a word.
Oh...
...Understood!
That is...
...right.
Without saying a word, I wrapped my arms tightly around Claire and Scarlet's waists again.
So, we don't have a problem, right?
As we quickly passed the stunned guard and headed into the corridor, I heard him muttering behind us.
Amazing... truly amazing...
...Ah...
...Let's go!
