Following the visit to the nice branch manager with the nicer car, the gang ended up following Harui to go meet her own mentor.

Still in Minato, they walked along the riverbank... As in Harui and Yukie walked ahead being all giddy with each other while Satoru and Kikka walked a few steps behind for the sake of their sanity.

"How... How did you put up with them for four months...?" The redhead asked with a light sweatdrop. "Are you being held hostage? Blink twice if you need to be rescued."

"The only thing holding me hostage is my past actions." Satoru replied. "Dropping a bucket of water on someone badmouthing has stapled me to those two until the end of my life."

"Oh yeah! The plant rabbies water!"

"Plant ra- Oi, tanuki! What the hell did you tell Uekoshi?!"

"The truth, you furry. I only told her the truth, the truth, and nothing but the truth. Call my lawyer if you got an issue with that." Harui brushed it off with a shrug.

"That tanuki...!" The white haired growled, teeth grinding.

"You and Harui really go back alot, don't you?" Kikka deadpanned.

"Our siblings married the same chick."

"There are more fashionable ways of saying it, Harui..." Yukie sweatdropped. "The sibling in question is Izuru-san, not Nino-san."

"I don't think the matter of which sibling it was is the matter here..." Kikka sighed. "For the sake of my patience, I won't delve much on the matter."

"It's not that deep. The librarian chick was getting married off to some shmuck, Izuru and Yukiko busted in, Izuru got divorced in five seconds, Yukiko went on to date the chick to this day." Harui explained. "Pretty standard love story."

"That's anything but standard!"

"Don't call Kasumi-san a chick, that's too diminutive of the great person she is." Satoru said. "Kasumi-san and my sis only hooked up after the former realized the guy she liked was hot garbage."

"Hey, Izuru is anything but hot garbage." Harui interjected. "Garbage smells bad. He's like the tiny basket you keep under your desk. You throw the trash in it out, but you always keep the basket."

Izuru was still out walking Bachi at the time. He sneezed again.

"The more I hear about this Izuru guy, the more confused I get..." Kikka sweatdropped. "So, the girl your sister is dating liked him or...?"

"Kasumi-san just happened to be part of a long list of girls that somehow was into him." Satoru explained. "The list's big. There was her, a student council pres, a King's girlfriend, Harui's physician-"

"Her physician?!"

"My mentor's daughter is one of the unlucky ladies involved in that mess. She's how he ended up beating the goof out of Izuru once."

"Your mentor beat up Izuru?!"

"I believe it's best if we drop the Izuru-san subject. For the sake of Kikka-san's mind." Yukie suggested.

"Yukie-san, save me from this mess..." Yukie weeped.

"What? But we haven't even gotten to the giant orbital beam that made him a card!" Harui exclaimed.

Kikka stopped and then started to step back, but she quickly got surrounded by her friends.

"Y-you guys are great, but maybe it's time I get new friends..."

"Nah, you're stuck with us now. Going back to Germany won't be enough to save you from us." Satoru said.

"One of us, one of us, one of us." Yukie repeated.
