Both Taiyou and Shirokiyami was running back from the road they came from.

Taiyou carried the fainted Sakura on his shoulder as he dashed away.

He was literally kidnapping her in broad daylight. Although they were fleeing from the scene with Sakura in tow, there were absolutely no pursuers, this is because Shirokiyami made sure to get rid of any loose ends.

Whilst they were running away, Taiyou glances at Sakura and asks Shirokiyami a question.

「So, what is this plan that you were talking about earlier? Is there a relationship as to why we need to kidnap her? 」

「Yeah........It's so we can make it, public」

「Making it public? What are you talking about, how are we supposed to do that? 」

「What these people......Are doing, is human experimentation. Even now, they are in the middle.....of conducting experiments」

「That's true! The girls known as the "Eternally little"! 」

At first Taiyou couldn't understand what she was implying, but after the word "experimentation" came out he suddenly remembered the fact that they were experimenting on a group of people called the Eternally Little.

As if he guessed correctly, Shirokiyami merely nodded quietly.

「Is that so.....I guess we can use this. Though I have been completely sucked into the pace of these people, in actual fact no matter how ideal or desirable being able to create a serum that would make you eternally young is, it is still illegal to do human experimentation, especially if it is leaked out to the public. No matter how much people are bribed in this world, there will also be those that will strongly oppose such a violation of human rights」

「That, is exactly, it」

Taiyou hit himself in the head and thought, "how come I didn't think of such a simple fact?"

Up until now, all he thought about was the three sisters. The idea's he came up with always revolved around the girls.

Though the three people were consistently exposed to dangers, he wasn't able to come out with a concrete way to protect them. In a word, he was just attempting to fix the problem without cutting it at its roots.

Even if it crossed his mind that he could call on the police force to take them into protective custody, it never crossed his mind that he could use the public's opinion to potentially resolve the issue.

The fact that they were already in the process of experimentation, changes everything.

Whilst running at a speed that a normal human being probably couldn't achieve......Taiyou glimpsed at the face of the unconscious Sakura who was on his shoulder.

When he first met her, Sakura wanted him to "Cooperate" with her for the Eternally Little project. Although he didn't really understand the implications of the words at that time, it was a critically factor which indicated she was already experimenting on humans.

「"The poor girls, who......Are vulnerable and weak". Or maybe another title for the newspapers could be, "The Company behind the scenes of...." Or maybe "the young girls who have been abused and taken advantage of"? 」

「Although I don't really understand what they really do to the bodies of these girls.........I can still imagine the horrific acts they may have done」

「Yes」

「In that case, all we need to do is to get the information out of Sakura」

「Yeah, we bring her.......Torture, the info, out.....of her」
