Unexpected Turn…

'So… it seems that the reason why they got kidnapped is because of Kaguya's family suppressing the business of the kidnappers until they got bankrupt. That's why they wanted to use Kaguya as a chip to exchange some money for them to live. As for Fujiwara, they will do the same since they already take her.'

Outside of the room, Ishigami is listening to the kidnappers.

It seems that he is at the right door.

Now, how can he rescue them?

*Clack

He heard the sound of the door so he immediately hid to another room.

Going out of the room, the man is lighting his cigarette as he walks to the window.

Seeing this, he thought to take down the man.

Silently, he is getting close to the man.

He tries to make his step as soft as possible to not make any noise despite wearing his school shoes.

The man has no idea that Yu is getting closer however, as someone who used to fight, he feels uneasy so he turns around and he is right, a person is behind him.

Ishigami took out his shortsword from his inventory to bash the man's head, however, the man turned around and saw him.

Fortunately, the man's reflex didn't act immediately and was able to bash his head, which made the man to his immediate sleep.

He caught the man as he sighed in relief.

If he didn't catch the man, it might make a sound and his companions might look at it.

After he caught the man, he hid his body in another room.

He felt uneasy since this was the first time he had done that so he immediately checked the pulse of the man to see if he was dead or not.

While looking at his pulse, his body is getting trembles from the idea that he killed the man.

He predicts that someday he needs to kill a person but as long as possible he doesn't want to kill anyone even though they are bad guys.

He still has some conscience.

Fortunately, the man has a pulse so he sighs in relief.

He wanted to tie the man but unfortunately, he doesn't have any rope or similar to that.

After this, he thought to use the phone of the man.

He looked at his messages and found the contacts of the kidnappers.

In total, there are seven kidnappers, including the guards outside.

He read one suspicious message.

It contains their plan for kidnapping and learning their names.

He knocked down one of them so there were four more people inside the room.

Leaving the man, he back again to the door to listen to what is going on.

*buzz

"Ahhh!"

"No!!!"

"Ah!"

"Kakh!"

For some reason, he heard different sounds of some men, getting electrocuted.

He wanted to peek but if he did that he might get caught so he decided to stay still despite his worry about the two girls.

"Yu, just come in. Everything is clear here."

Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice.

After he opens the door, he feels like time has stopped.

Never did he imagine seeing these people right now.

Himejima Akeno.

Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Two of the four girls give him the <Harem Protagonist> title.

He looked around and saw that the other kidnappers were already knocked down.

He can see some static from their body so he immediately looks at Akeno.

Akeno just smiled but she didn't say anything.

Meanwhile, Utaha's red eyes are turning blue and doesn't seem notice her surrounding.

Seeing this, he doesn't know if she is truly the Utaha that he knew in his previous life.

Not only her, Akeno, Yui, and Alice.

All of them are not the same person he knows.

Although this world consists of different animes combined into one, it doesn't mean that there are big changes in their characters.

However, no logic is working to begin with so he stops thinking about it and considers the present happening.

He wanted to ask why they were here and how they knew that they were here but he suddenly remembered his main goal.

"Shinomiya-senpai, Fujiwara-senpai."

He immediately rushed beside them and saw that they were sleeping.

"Thank you."

Seeing that they were sleeping well, he thought that it might have to do with Akeno so he decided to thank her.

"You're welcome…"

Akeno replies as red symbols are lit on their feet.

"However, this is not the time to be with you. Lucky Alice, she has already done it with you. Anyway, they might not remember what happened for the whole day so goodbye, for now."

And they disappear as the red symbols do.

"Wait a minute—"

But he is late so he decides to eat his words and help the girls.
