Leveling Murderer - Chapter 37

 Episode 37: Request

 

Hi, my name is Sasaki.

 

There is someone I hate very much right now. It's the section chief of the company I used to work for until recently.

 

The man's name is Kengo Kadokura.

 

Even though Kadokura had a wife and child, he insisted on taking me out to dinner every chance he got.

 

Since he was my direct supervisor, it was difficult for me to say no, and I went to dinner with him alone many times, even though I didn't want to.

 

But just the other day, Kadokura's wife came into the office, and as soon as she saw me, she said, “You little bitch!” She grabbed me.

 

A male employee intervened and stopped the incident, but the company was temporarily in an uproar.

 

There was some talk of calling the police, but the company was reluctant, and the situation was settled with me forgiving Kadokura's wife.

 

After Kadokura's wife left, Kadokura and I were called into the manager's office and asked about the situation, and Kadokura started to explain.

Then Kadokura blamed me for everything.

Of course, I objected.

I told him that he was the one who had persistently asked me out.

 

But the manager didn't trust anything I said, and only relied on Kadokura's opinion.

 

I think the manager was close to Kadokura and took Kadokura's side instead of mine.

A few days later, I was transferred to the desk section.

 

The people around me look at me strangely, and I work in a department with no career prospects and no friends, holding a grudge against Kadokura every day.

 

...... I'm already losing my mind.

Help me, please. I beg you.

 

A very long email was sent to my phone that I couldn't believe since I had just finished typing the ad.

 

“...Seriously, I got a request.......”

I read the email again in surprise.

 

But I couldn't understand what the client, Sasaki-san, wanted me to do just by reading this text.

“What should I do with this one......?”

 

I should just ignore this e-mail and change my e-mail address immediately.

I thought about it, but in a corner of my mind, I felt a surge of anger towards this Kadokura guy.

 

“......mmm ......”

 

After a minute of grumbling while looking at my phone, my finger naturally moved to the reply button.

 

  

 

After exchanging a couple of emails, I found out that Sasaki-san lived closer to me than I thought, whether by luck or bad luck, and we decided to meet at a coffee shop.

 

I put on a mask and a hat and left the apartment in a slight disguise.

 

At first I wore sunglasses, but Misa-chan, who happened to bump into me in front of my apartment, asked me, “Onizuka-san, what's wrong with your outfit ......?” So, I left the sunglasses in my room.

 

  

 

When I entered the coffee shop, there was still no one who looked like Sasaki-san.

So, I sat down at a table at the back of the store and ordered a hot coffee and waited.

After a while, the hot coffee was brought to me, and I blew on it and gently took a sip.

 

Bell chimed~

 

A woman walked into the store looking flustered.

She was so beautiful that I couldn't help but take a second look.

 

The woman looked at her watch, out of breath, and then looked around at the seats.

 

I wondered what she was thinking, so I gave her a simple “Gohon” and cleared my throat.

 

The woman seemed to be Sasaki-san, and she came running to me and bowed deeply.

 

“I apologize for making you wait.”

 

Her long hair swayed and the scent of roses tickled my nostrils, probably from the shampoo.

 

“No, the meeting time has not passed yet. It's just that I arrived early.”

 

In fact, there was still fifteen minutes to spare before the meeting time.

It seems that we both came too early because of our nervousness.

 

“I'm Kumiko Sasaki. You're Onizuka-san, right?”

“Yes. Well, please sit down for now. You'll stand out if you just stand there.”

“Oh, sorry.”

Sasaki-san hurriedly sat down in front of me.

 

“Hi, I'm Onizuka.”

“I'm Kumiko Sasaki. Thank you for listening to my story and meeting me.”

“It’s okay.”

 

At this point, the waitress came to ask for our order.

Sasaki-san asked the waiter for a cup of hot cocoa.

 

“You didn't give me any details in your email, did you? To be frank, what do you want me to do?”

 

When I asked her, she made sure the waitress went into the back kitchen, looked me in the eyes and said,

 

“Please kill Kengo Kadokura.”
