Chapter 115
"What can I do for you?"
Ryosaku rolled down the door window and replied with a tired look on his face, as if he was still drunk, and the female staff member spoke to him kindly.
"Ryosaku... Takada-san, right? You're from Y City, T Prefecture. Born October 26, 1970, you're 21 years old. You live with your parents, and yourself, right?"
"What?! How did you know that!?"
"I'll explain later. Anyway, Ryosaku-san, I'm glad. Today was actually a day when we, the city employees, had to work on a holiday. Starting next week, there's a city event... and we had to prepare for it and handle the reception of the citizens, so today, all the people in charge of the festival were at work."
"What... a holiday? What day of the week was it today...?"
"It's Saturday, Ryosaku-san. Isn't the 'Agricultural College' that you go to closed...?" So you came here by car, right?"
(That's right... Today, now that I think about it, it was Saturday. And it was my birthday, wasn't it? I completely forgot about that, because I was so preoccupied with Mieko-chan.)
"You were lucky. If it wasn't this week, the government office would have been closed. You drove all the way here, and it would have ended up being a complete "strikeout." By the way, Ryosaku-san. I'm off work now, so I'm on my way home. If you don't mind, do you want to come over to my place and talk?"
And so, Ryosaku followed the car of the "mysterious employee" who had suddenly appeared, and, feeling somewhat "stupid," followed her orders and headed to her house.
