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 22

Two months have passed since then.
The TV news program covers entertainment scandals, but previously it was all about Mom and Takeshi.

Severe child abuse!! A mother who forced her daughter into prostitution while on the run

With a headline like that.
Mom, it’s my second time on TV.
Moreover, unlike last time, that bald state.

By the way, regarding Takeshi, it seems he is still in custody.
Anyway, I’ll probably end up with a prison sentence and be sent to jail.
Apparently, he was a half-gre, and it seems they are cautiously investigating whether he has connections with anti-social forces.

“Phew, all that’s left is the graduation exam…”

After finishing the motorcycle training, I head home by bicycle.
Actually, I haven’t moved yet.
The ideal for the new house is taking shape, but I still can’t quite make up my mind.
Because, you see, we’ll be separated from our neighbors.

Stop by the nearby park.

There was a girl walking her pet Pomeranian.

“Ya”

“Ohh. Good job.”

Get off the bicycle and sit on the bench.
Even the Pomeranian, Meke, has remembered my scent and has completely warmed up to me now.

“Has there been any progress with Fuji-kun mom?”

“Nothing. Just that I miraculously only had a hairline fracture in my leg, so I should be discharged by the time the trial starts.”

“How pitiful. If only you had become paralyzed from the waist down, you could have been taken care of by nurses for the rest of your life. It’s amazing you got off so lightly. You’re so sturdy, for no reason.”

“Am I lucky or unlucky?”

Even if we don’t worry about it, a guilty verdict is absolutely certain.
I don’t know how many years of imprisonment it will be.

“Finally being sent to prison, huh? It’s only going to get tougher from here, Mom.”

“I’m definitely going to be bullied.”

Even though it’s a prison, it’s not like no outside information ever gets in.
If those notorious parents who caused such a public uproar exist, the inmates must know about them too.
It seems that even among the same criminals, the hierarchy within the prison is determined by the type of crime they committed.

Of course, their personality probably plays a role too, but that person is the type who would be 100% disliked by their peers, right?

“May you be ostracized, bullied, and suffer in loneliness in prison.”

He doesn’t need human rights.

“Hanazaki-san, what about Sayu?”

“Hmm? Hmm as usual.”

“I see.”

“If I were in grandpa’s position, I definitely wouldn’t protect him.”

Yes, Sayu is currently living with her grandfather.
At one point, I was hospitalized because my body had completely weakened, but my grandfather decided to take me in.

Actually, I brought it up with Grandpa myself.
After settling the score with my mother, I strangely couldn’t bring myself to leave Sayu alone.
I can’t even tell if it’s kindness or foolishness, but I suppose I still had the awareness of being his older brother.

I’m covering the minimum living expenses for that.
It’s just a trivial expense anyway.

That said, I still harbor resentment towards that guy.
Therefore, I avoid meeting directly and keep up with the latest news through Ms. Hanazaki.
If I see your face, I’m sure I’ll get annoyed again.

Oh, by the way, the person who attacked Grandpa on Makabe orders has been caught by the police without anyone noticing.
He was arrested for a separate incident of assault, and it seems the attack on his grandfather was also discovered.

As expected of Makabe friend. Such an idiot.

“Grandpa has always cherished Sayu, so he couldn’t abandon her.”

“But when I checked on you, you looked like you were in pain. You said you couldn’t even let me stroke your head.”

It’s because Sayu is rejecting it.
It is not reason, but instinct that is rejecting the man.
The existence of men has become a trauma for me.
It must be because of the abuse from Takeshi.

Sayu has been holed up in her room, wrapped in a blanket the whole time.
Even meals are minimal. According to the doctor, it’s depression.

Doing nothing, occasionally crying, and reading a book if I feel like it.
I’m living that kind of life.

She too is in the midst of experiencing the suffering of “continuing to live.”

“Let me know when you’re well enough to go out.”

“Okay, but why?”

“You have to get the tattoo removal surgery, right?”

“You’re so kind.”

“Of course, that’s a loan. You’ll have to repay it with work someday. I’m not going to give you everything for free.”

“I see.”

With this, my revenge is complete.
There have been a lot of ups and downs, but I can finally start a new life.

“Hanazaki-san, thank you.”

“Hehe, it was an honor to be hired by you. Oh, by the way, about the hot spring trip…”

“Yeah”

“Your father won’t allow you two to be alone together!! Hehe, too bad.”

“Not, not that I’m disappointed or anything. O-okay, let’s invite Hanazaki-san’s dad too. Yeah, let’s do that.”

“Really? So that’s how it is?”

“not great, but…”

It can’t be helped if your parents issued a ban.
Just the two of us, someday again.

“Yeah, let’s go to a hot spring where Meke can join us too. There’s one, right? A pet-friendly inn.”

“Ahh, I’ve heard of it.”

“Hanazaki-san’s family and I are going on a hot spring trip.”

“How would you introduce yourself, Fuji-kun?”

“Of course, friend.”

“Hmm.”

I suddenly realized that the distance between my face and Hanazaki-san’s had gotten closer without me noticing.
A distance close enough for our breaths to reach each other.

“Hehehe”

With a smile, Ms. Hanazaki closes her eyes.
I had already decided that I would no longer trust women.
But, if it’s Hanazaki-san, it’s Hanazaki-san.

Hoping no one is watching, I leaned in to kiss her lips.
