196 Tokyo Riot

"Sorry, Shi-chan, I have to go now."

As Sonoko looked at the clock, her body became giddy, and her smile couldn't be hidden. The one she had been waiting for would come soon, and she wanted to prepare herself, as she was sure that tonight would be crazy. Nevertheless, it surprised her to know that he had prepared his own accommodation. 

'Even though he can stay at my place...' 

While Sonoko was helpless, she was also curious about where they would stay tonight. 

Nevertheless, Utaha looked at Sonoko, who was prepared to leave, and then looked at her watch. 

'As expected, huh?' 

Utaha knew that Mizuto would come to Tokyo for the award ceremony. While she wasn't sure when he would come, based on her guess, it should be tonight, and it was also why she decided to come to Sonoko, asking for guidance on the next volume of her novel. 

With Mizuto's guidance, Utaha had no doubts as he gave her complete instructions on how to write her novel. 

Still, Utaha had to say that Mizuto was amazing, as he could give her guidance without even forcing his opinion on her story. While teaching her, he also gave her free rein on how to develop her novel. 

Yes, Mizuto was amazing, but this guy was annoying!

No matter how many times she tried to beg Sonoko, she didn't give her Mizuto's contact information. 

Utaha knew that Mizuto's instructions were already clear and asking for more was simply meaningless, but as expected, she still wished to talk with him, discussing many things about novels with him.

However, Mizuto didn't want to meet her, and it was impossible for her to go to Kyoto. It wasn't like she didn't want to go to Kyoto, but how could she find him among millions of people?

Nevertheless, Utaha never gave up, and she thought of a way to predict when Mizuto was going to come. She then went to visit Sonoko with an excuse to discuss her novel, and as expected, her bet was correct. 

Still, Utaha had to say that Sonoko's expression was so lewd and sexy, which made her blush, realizing that the relationship between Sonoko and Mizuto was more complex than she had imagined. 

This also made her confused, but there was no way for the two of them to be dating, right?

Not only because they were an editor and a writer, but more importantly, their age difference was too much! 

Sonoko had told her before that Mizuto was one year below her. 

In other words, Mizuto was a high school student, and Sonoko was a woman in her early 30s. 

While Utaha didn't think that this relationship was taboo, it was just uncommon, and somehow, this made her curious, and strangely enough uncomfortable. 

Utaha might not say anything, but after she got Mizuto's instructions, she had been thinking about him, wondering what kind of a man he was. He might be younger, but she could imagine he was knowledgeable, talented, and mature for someone his age. It was her first time to know someone like this, especially when her surroundings were all nothing but a stupid guy who thought about love or a lower body all the time. 

Unfortunately, Mizuto didn't want to interact with her. 

When she thought about his attitude, naturally, she was dissatisfied, and she had been thinking about making him regret his decision by appearing as the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen. 

Unfortunately, Sonoko also put on make-up, and she wasn't much worse than her. Moreover, the charm of an adult woman was something that she couldn't mimic, which made her helpless. 

However, Utaha had youth. 

Still, Utaha wouldn't say her advantage out loud as she was sure that it might cause a crack in her relationship with Sonoko. 

So, at this moment, Utaha pretended not to notice Sonoko's lewd expression and just acted like nothing happened as she came out with Sonoko as if ready to go back together. 

Sonoko also didn't notice anything, and she thought that it was normal for Utaha to go back when she needed to go somewhere. There was no doubt in her heart about Utaha's actions, and more importantly, her thoughts were preoccupied with the thought of meeting Mizuto. 

"Then, Shi-chan, I will go back first." 

Sonoko entered the taxi and went to the station to pick Mizuto up. 

"Yes." 

Utaha nodded, but then she hurriedly entered the next taxi and pointed her finger at the taxi that had been entered by Sonoko.

"Follow that taxi! Hurry up!" 

"....." Taxi driver. 

---

Kyoto to Tokyo. 

If it was in the past, it might have taken several days for one to travel from two cities, yet with the advancement of technology, it only took him two hours to arrive at Tokyo Station. 

During his trip, Mizuto had been thinking about his business. 

As he had made up his mind to become the "King of Logistics" and acquired shipping companies, warehouses, and logistics companies, he had been thinking of acquiring the airline company. 

Similar to the shipping company, there were also alliances within the airline company, and it was also why it took a lot of time for him to acquire them, as he wanted to acquire all the companies within one alliance. 

Still, it was a rare chance for him to go to Tokyo, and he felt like it would be a waste of time to focus only on the airline company. He wanted to see the prosperity of the biggest city in this country and also try to see the other businesses, especially since he had been ignoring other industries due to his goal to become the "King of Logistics." 

Yet, it couldn't be helped, right?

Instead of focusing on many, it was better to focus on the single as we, as humans, weren't a perfect being, and to be greedy might make an irreversible mistake. 

Still, as he had put in which airline companies he would acquire and finished all of those preparations to become the "King of Logistics," he thought about seeing other businesses, wondering which industries he should take next. 

Nevertheless, he had to say that while he had prepared for this, he realized that his charm was too dangerous, and wherever he was, he would become the center of attention. Even if he stayed in the private compartment, the female staff somehow empathically tried to approach him, ignoring the fact that they might lose their jobs when they tried to seduce him. 

Fortunately, even if they were tempted by him, they didn't lose their minds, and they also understood the importance of their job as they wouldn't be able to live without money from their job, so they only recently gave him their contact info before they left.

Looking at several pieces of paper on his table, Mizuto sighed helplessly.

'Next time, I should bring someone.' 

If his women were with him, then he wouldn't find this trouble. 

Still, Mizuto felt like this was an important experience, and he felt like he could train his will so he wouldn't be a slave to his desires. 

Nevertheless, two hours passed quickly, and soon, he arrived at the Tokyo station. 

As expected, this place was amazing. 

On average, there were 500,000 people who would use this station daily. 

Still, Mizuto couldn't care less about this fact now as he was communicating with Sonoko. 

"Yeah, I have arrived." 

"Don't move. Stay there. I will come to you." 

Sonoko knew that Mizuto was unfamiliar with Tokyo, so she thought of picking him up like how he had picked her up at the Kyoto Station previously. 

Mizuto didn't reject her kindness and just stood in her place, but he hoped Sonoko would hurry, as he could see many girls and women staring at him. 

"Sorry, I saw you from there before. Do you mind if I get your name? By the way, I am single." 

"Wait a moment, I am first!" 

"Hey, don't fight! I am the one who saw him first!" 

"..." 

Mizuto looked at the group of women who tried to surround him like a group of locusts that wanted to swarm toward a delicious fruit, wondering whether he would cause a riot. It was his first time in Tokyo, but why did he encounter such trouble?

However, fortunately, Sonoko quickly came. 

"Mizuto!" 

"Sonoko!" 

Mizuto quickly escaped from the group of women and hugged Sonoko tightly, showing that he was taken. 

Sonoko was helpless when she saw Mizuto was surrounded by many women, but when he hugged her, she felt all of her worries disappear, and at the same time, she could feel something hot that was pressed against her belly. Her body reacted naturally as if it was her instinct, and she could feel that she was slightly wet. 

"He-Hey..." 

"Let's go." 

Hearing his low voice, Sonoko was obediently standing in front of him to hide what had pressed her belly. 

"You are free tonight, right?" 

When Mizuto saw Sonoko, who was dressed like a capable, mature woman, he wanted to do her right away. 

"Yeah..."

"Then, you are mine tonight." 

By then, nothing mattered anymore, and they only thought about each other. 

However, Sonoko had to say that she was dumbfounded when she saw a concierge of a hotel with a white BMW X6 had picked them up.

Still, when they left, Utaha had also arrived, but she, who had been following Sonoko, had missed Sonoko. 

"Where is she?!" 

Utaha was frustrated, but then she saw Sonoko's back. 

"Ah!" 

As expected, Utaha saw that Sonoko wasn't alone and by her side, she saw the the back of a man, which made her in a daze. She might not have seen his face, but his view from the back was amazing. 

Still, in that dazed moment, Utaha saw that the two had entered the car, and it was too late for her to chase after them, but more importantly, she hadn't seen his face! 

Utaha wanted to call Sonoko, but no matter how many times she called her editor, Sonoko didn't answer her, so in the end, she could only give up and change her strategy. 

'Tomorrow...' 

Yes, there was still a chance to see him tomorrow as Mizuto would come to the award ceremony, but then, Utaha wondered what they were doing at this moment that they could even ignore her. 

'Are they discussing a plot for the novel?' 

If so, Utaha wanted to join! 

Her pure mind still couldn't see the truth, but it didn't matter since, in the future, she would understand what Sonoko and Mizuto were doing in Tokyo.
