After Losing My Girlfriend, Mother, And Sister To Someone Else, I won 1.5 Billion Yen In The lottery. Now, I’m hiring A Coworker To Help Me Get My Revenge - Episode 12

I pedal my bike quickly.

Without even a moment to catch my breath, I hurried to the hospital.

While I was completing the procedures at the reception, the police officer who had contacted me called out to me.

Together, to the hospital room.

The grandfather, with his head wrapped in bandages, was sleeping in bed.

“Grandpa!!”

The female police officer who had been waiting on the side stands up.

“Is this Riku Fujii?”

“Yes…”

I have already heard from the police in advance.

A nearby resident who heard the grandfather’s screams called the police.

By the time we arrived, Grandpa was already lying on the ground with bl00d streaming from his head.

Valuables and such have not been stolen.

I was just being hit on the head and abdomen with something blunt.

Over and over, over and over.

The criminal apparently had the audacity to break the window and enter.

Most likely, it’s a crime driven by resentment.

A clear intent to kill can be felt.

Somehow, they managed to save his life, but it’s uncertain when he will wake up.

“I know this is sudden and you’re probably shaken up, but please answer slowly. The time of the crime was around 4 AM. First, what were you doing at that time?”

It’s a formal question.

You’re not seriously doubting me, but you probably want to double-check anyway.

Of course, I’ll respond honestly.

I got confused and messed up the grammar and word meanings, but somehow I answered honestly.

Gradually, my brain cells focus on identifying the suspect.

Mom… no, perhaps…

“Well then, Fujii-san, do you have any idea who the culprit might be?”

Yes

Grandpa is okay for now.

I’m worried about the aftereffects, but no matter how much money it takes, I’ll make sure to cure it completely.

After completing various procedures at the hospital and police station, I went home.

I’ll promptly tell Ms. Hanazaki everything.

She was also terribly surprised and averted her eyes apologetically.

“Sorry, I was too focused on monitoring Murano-san.”

“No, it’s my fault for being optimistic despite knowing this possibility.”

“The culprit is…”

“There’s no one else but him.”

Another call came in.

It was an unknown caller.

“Hello?”

“Hey, Fujii.”

“Makabe…”

“Is your beloved grandpa doing well?”

“You…”

“Hey, hey, I didn’t do anything, you know? It was my acquaintance who did it. Without permission. Hehehe, back in elementary school, I heard from you where your grandfather lived. We used to play together a lot back then.”

“I told the police, it’s definitely you’re doing.”

If that acquaintance of yours gets arrested, it will lead back to you like a chain reaction.

Don’t you understand something so simple? Or are you planning to use your father’s influence to cover it up?

“I don’t care what happens to me anymore. My dad disowned me and cut ties. My name and face are all over the internet, and I have no future left. But you, you’re coming with me. I’m dragging you down to hell too!!”

“Next, it’s your stupid family. And finally, I’ll kill you. I told you before, right? I’ll definitely kill you!! If you bow your head to me, I might consider it.”

So this bastard was really planning to kill Grandpa, huh?

“It’s all your fault, you know? Acting all high and mighty despite being a loser. Know your place!! You loser!!”

The call is abruptly ended.

Are you aware that you are making threats?

He’s completely reckless now. He probably isn’t even thinking about the risks.

Next, they were talking about family and stuff.

Family. Mother and Sayu, perhaps.

Does he know where I am? No, it’s those two. If Makabe invites him to meet, he might just show up.

To be honest, I don’t care, but I can’t stand letting him have his way any longer.

“Fujii-kun? What did Makabe say?”

“Damn it!!”

I slammed my phone hard onto the ground.

I was somehow managing to pretend to be calm while talking, but it’s infuriating.

How far will that piece of trash go to ruin my life?

You hurt someone completely unrelated, someone who had nothing to do with this.

“I was too lenient. I thought to myself that if I imposed social sanctions, he would reflect on his actions. But a scumbag is a scumbag no matter what.”

Murano also ran away to her boyfriend’s house without reflecting on her actions and ended up getting hurt.

But this guy hasn’t experienced that much pain yet.

He still held a grudge against me.

Where is Makabe now?

I heard you were disowned or something. Did they kick you out of the house like they did with Murano?

Tch, that father should at least keep his idiot son in check.

“Hey Murano, where’s Makabe?”

“Ma, Makabe? I don’t know…”

“Is there no clue?!!”

“Eek!! I don’t understand, I don’t understand!!”

Useless.

If we use this, can we bring Makabe out?

No, from what Hanazaki-san said about Murano, Makabe is avoiding this guy.

The reason is unclear, but perhaps they disliked being asked for help.

“Fujii-kun”

Hanazaki-san took my hand.

“What do you want me to do?”

That’s right, I have Hanasaki-san.

It’s no use trying to shoulder everything by myself.

“Hanazaki-san, I’ll give you 100 million yen in advance.”

“Hmm, hmm?”

“Use this one hundred million yen, by any means necessary. I want Makabe dragged out in front of me.”

“He’s forgotten about ‘risk’ and the ‘fear of losing’ and has gone into a rampage. I’ll be the one to guide him.
