9 Shuri
After taking care of little Tsubaki, he used a full backcloths to hide in the darkness, then moved from roof to roof towards the place where his seal was and finally was able to hear the conversation while standing on the rooftop of the home.
The place where Akeno and Shuri were living was a rundown home in a poor district. Seeing this place he gave a sigh.
"So that old man said, he was an old knowledge and his wife wanted to give me a lucky charm." Shuri said while wondering.
"Yes, he said that and even gave me an envelope which had 200,000 yen. Are you sure you don't remember him, he even showed me a photo he had taken with you and his wife." Akari replied while wondering.
Although he could hear them but wasn't able to see them, so he moved on a tree which was directly viewed from the window. He reached the tree and started to eavesdrop because of his better sense he was able to hear and see them perfectly.
Both of them were sitting on a pair of a chair with a pot of tea in front of them. There was a silence in the place with the sound of only insects.
"So, what did you tell him about us?" asked Shuri with a suspicious frown and looked at the packet which was still placed on their front.
"Nothing much, just that your husband left you and you are stressed with everything and you have to take care of Akeno too." Said Akari while thinking a little," after hearing that you were having financial difficulties he gave me the envelope and just moved out of the way, even before I could reject him." Akari continued," Do you think I should have rejected him, after all, you are having difficulties and he was an old knowledge."
"Sigh, well what's done is done, I should first open the gift maybe It could really bring me some luck, only God knows, how much I need one. I also need to send little Akeno to school from this session." Shuri said while massaging her head.
"Yeah, will you be able to do that, you are already doing two part-time jobs and it's still isn't enough to cover your expenses." Akira replied with a little worry, "Father, is also becoming stricter and stricter with days and I don't think I will be able to meet you again anytime soon after this."
"I will manage somehow, don't worry." Said Shuri while opening the package, it was the same charm Dexter had handed to Akari, she moved it to her eye level and looked at it intently but nothing out of ordinary, so she again packed it and placed it back on the table. Then she opened the envelop and was a little excited to see the money," I should be able to handle her admission with this." Said Shuri with a little smile, although it requires 2,000,000 yen for six years in public primary school, and this would be enough for the initial fee.
"You, really have my thanks, Akari, I don't know how I would have fared without your help!?" Shuri said again while looking at Akari.
"Don't sweat it, my dear sister. After all, it was you who always helped me in childhood." Akari said with a smile," It's getting late, I need to go back to the shrine so that no one suspects me and here are some sweets for little Akeno." Saying so, she put a sweet bag from her bag and stood up.
"You know, you don't have to always bring it." Shuri said with a smile.
"I know, but little Akeno really likes them." Akari replied.
"Yeah, she does and thanks again." Shuri said.
"Sis, you don't have to be so formal to me you do know that, don't you?" replied Akari while moving towards the door and pulling out a black cloth to cover herself.
"I know, but still I want to thank you." Shuri said while moving towards the door to see her off.
"Ok, bye then sis, see you later." Said Akari while waving her hands
"Bye, little sis and take care of mom and dad." Shuri said while waving back.
"I will don't you worry." Replied Akari from a little far and hid her face with the cloth.
Then Shuri locked the door and moved to the room with the lucky charm and envelope. She took the envelope and move to another room and he could hear some door opening and assumed she was putting it in the closet after a few moments she returned and looked at the packet that contained charm, after looking at the closely she found that the packet contained an advertisement.
She slowly opened the packet and placed the charm on the table then straighten the paper," Wanted, a baby sitter with experience and Housemaid. Salary could be discussed in the meeting, free lodging for the maid with food provided. If interested contact on the number provided."
After seeing the paper her expression became strained, as she started to think about it deeply while looking at the print, it was printed on the same day, so there was a probability that it hasn't been distributed.
After thinking for a while she decided to make a call, but after looking at the time, she put the phone back down while shaking her head and decided to call early in the morning. She really felt that the lucky charm was doing its work. So put it inside her pocket and moved to another room probably to sleep.
After looking at everything and seeing that everything was taken care of Dexter breathed a sigh of relief, after giving a last look to the house, he moved from the place of his hiding towards the hotel that he was staying in.
After entering his room he removed all the clothes he was wearing and placed it in his ring then got in a pair of comfortable sleep wears and moved to the bed where little Tsubaki was hugging a pillow, so he slowly removed the pillow and got beside her and as soon as little Tsubaki hugged him she gave a content smile in her sleep and mumbled something like," Onii chan!" he gave her a kiss on forehead and went to sleep. It would be a long day tomorrow.
