“……Hey.”
I can’t stop shaking my leg.
“Is it not yet, oi !”
Two hours had passed since I had requested the whereabouts of Kanzaki Madoka from my juniors.
All I get are social media notifications. The beeping sound every few seconds was so loud. It’s almost as if it’s going to break.
I had to do something quickly……
It was around that time.
“Oh, did you find her !?”
The junior who had been looking for Madoka called me.
[Yes, she was at Satsukigawa Park.]
“Satsukigawa Park? Why is she in that place?”
It is a large park located a few minutes drive from here.
The park is crowded with families on weekends, but on weekdays at this time of the day, it is so quiet that there is no one there.
Why such a place? I wondered.
[She was meeting up with a guy……]
“With a guy? Who’s this guy?”
[The other guy said it seems to be……Tachibana Kei.]
“Tachibana Kei !?”
Tachibana Kei is that stalker guy, right?
Why are you meeting up with that guy?
She’s Madoka’s ex-boyfriend, but I made fun of him a lot. And now she’s meeting up with him after all this time—.
“Is it because he’s mad at me……?”
She’s still upset about what happened.
Is that why he brought Madoka to his side and caused all this trouble?
“Don’t tell me it was all his doing…..”
That stalker bastard would have a motive.
The moment I thought of that, I was filled with anger all at once.
“Is that stalker guy still there?”
[Yeah, right now—]
“Listen, don’t let them get away until I get there !”
[B-but.]
“Don’t ‘but’ me. Just follow my orders, you idiot ! If you let them go, I won’t let you get away with this !”
Bang !
I end the call and pick up my luggage.
“Ha, you got carried away for a stalker. ……Ah, that’s fine. I’ll take revenge on you and give you the same despair look on your face as that day.”

I drove the cab and arrived at Satsukigawa Park.
As I expected, there was no one in sight. There are children and their mothers near the playground equipment, but when I get away from there and come to the riverside, which is my destination, people disappear at once and it’s crazy quiet.
This is the best place for a date.
“–Hey, Madoka !”
“Eh !? H-how did you get here……?”
When I arrived, Madoka was the only one there.
Damn it, I told that bastard not to let either of them go. I mean, where the hell did that guy go?
Even when I looked around, there was no sign of anyone.
“I mean, what the hell are you doing here, Madoka?
“T-that’s…….”
“You didn’t answer your phone, and I’ve been looking for you. Hey, Madoka?”
As I get closer, her large, rabbit-like eyes scurry and her body trembles. No matter how good she looks on the outside, she’s still a fundamental dweeb.
“I’ve been worried sick about you, you know……? Wondering if you’re cheating on me with another guy.”
“…..I-I won’t do that. I’m Tohru kun’s girlfriend after—“
“—Girlfriend? Oh, come on, Madoka.
You’re not my girlfriend.”
“……Eh?”
A woman who has betrayed me once needs to be made to understand the master-slave relationship clearly.
I’ve been vague about my relationship with her, but it’s possible that I’ve let her get the better of me.
“You are my slave. You say yes when I order you to do something, and you do whatever it takes to get rid of anyone I find annoying. That’s what you are, make no mistake about it.”
“Slave……?”
“Yes, that’s right. If you obey orders obediently, you will be rewarded. You’ve been doing that all this time, haven’t you? Who bought you clothes when all you had were rustic clothes? Who gave you a colorful view when all you had was black and white and boring scenery? Who gave you, a woman with no redeeming qualities like you the right to be with a perfect man like me?”
I grabbed her by the shoulders and Madoka turned her face down.
“Me, right? You had to obey me to be happy.
And yet…..hey? I gave you a lot of rewards, and I never thought you would betray me,…….
But now I forgive you. Call that woman Sena Nanaka here. Don’t worry, all you have to do is call her up,……and, well, some of the guys will take care of the rest.”
Quick, take out your phone and call her.
Even after I told her that, Madoka remained downcast and didn’t move.
Seriously, she’s gonna start crying here. But I had to make it clear to her.
I have to discipline her strictly, not just coddle her.
Otherwise, I never know when she’ll get carried away and rebel again.
So, hurry up—.
“……No.”
“Ah?”
I couldn’t hear her small voice.
“My bad, I didn’t understand what you said, can you repeat it?”
“I said no. I won’t call her.”
“Haaa !?”
I grabbed her by both shoulders and peeked in front of her, and she stared at me for the first time.
“I’m not a slave, so……. So, no !”
“You fucking—!”
I found myself raising my right hand.
Once I get to this point, I can’t stop. Madoka closed her eyes and got slapped hard on the left cheek.
“Kyaaaah !”
Madoka fell back.
Seeing her tear-streaked face, I smile.
I’m about to awaken to a new fetish.
“If I can’t discipline you verbally, then I guess I have no choice, right? Now, get on the phone and call that bitch.”
“…..No.”
“Well, then, I’ll give you another shot. This time with a good —.”
“—Well, well, well, I got a good scoop !”
Suddenly, I heard a voice from behind me.
I turned around to see a huge man smiling at me with his phone pointed at me, and another man staring at me with a blank expression on his face.
“Why are you here? Could it be…hey, Madoka !?”
I glared at Madoka, but that woman was no longer there.

*Tachibana Kei’s point of view
Kanzaki Madoka ran out and headed for me and Kurogane.
“Here you go.”
Kuroganehanded Kanzaki the phone he was holding.
A fancy looking, female-oriented phone that Kurogane would never have.
“……”
“What’s the matter, why don’t you just get going?”
Kurogane asked, but Kanzaki looked at me and gave me an apologetic look.
“Erm, Kei kun,……. I’m sorry about that time.”
“That time?”
“I’ve been regretting it for a long time. ‘ve been wondering why I betrayed you. I only realized that the other day, and…um, if we try again now—“
“I’m sorry, but it’s not on our schedule for you to open your mouth here.
“……Eh?”
What would a woman who gave up on me, her ex-boyfriend say? How do you apologize? I was a fool for wanting to hear even a little bit of that.
“We don’t have any intention to help you.”
“Eh, but……you promised.”
“…Missy, all I promised that I wouldn’t say on stream that you and your friends were [working on a trick with Jinguuji] and I never said anything about saving you.”
“T-then, what am I supposed to do now !?”
“Don’t ask me.”
When I glared at Kanzaki, she looked like she was about to cry and her lips trembled.
“I should’ve explained it to you in the beginning. The only way for you and your friends to be saved is to tell the police that you were violently attacked by Jinguuji with proof of it. And the only way to do that is to make Jinguuji alone bear all the responsibility for the crime.”
“B-but—“
“….Aren’t you good at it?”
I put my hand on Kanzaki’s shoulder.
“You’re pretending to be a victim and trying to get someone to protect you. This time, you should do that too and go to the police.”
