Bab 274: Mission (2)

Not only Seven but also Scarlett was taken aback. She was concerned that their mission might be unnecessarily more burdensome if Nine joined them. 

"Brother Nine, I know you're capable of handling undercover missions. But I believe Seven only planned this for a two-person team mission, isn't that right, Seven?" Scarlett asked, looking at Seven trying to send a signal for him to say, YES. But...

"Yes, I have," Seven nodded. "B-But it's not a problem. He can come with us..." Seven glanced at Nine, feeling a little intimidated. "N-Nine, would you mind being our chauffeur? I know how excellent your driving is," he asked cautiously, not wanting to provoke the unpredictable Crazy Doc.

Scarlett was utterly speechless at Seven's suggestion.

'Why did he ask him to be our driver? Surely, he would refuse, right?' She muttered inwardly. Just before Scarlett wanted to say something, she stopped when she saw Nine smiling.
