Bab 339: A Hint
At that moment, Michel noticed something on Yuga's wrist, and his pupils involuntarily contracted. Then, he looked meaningfully at Yuga and said, "However, if it's you, Yuga, there might be a turning point."
Yuga asked curiously, "What do you mean?"
"The answer is right on your left wrist!" Michel pointed to Yuga's left wrist.
Yuga raised his left wrist, revealing a small golden key hanging there.
"You mean this?" Yuga touched the golden key hanging from his wrist and asked.
This golden key was the one Mr. Kuni'o had given him last night as a pass to enter and exit the estate.
Michel nodded and said, "Yes, the owner of that key might be able to help you."
Mr. Kuni'o could help me? Even though Yuga already knew that Mr. Kuni'o wasn't a simple person, he didn't expect him to be even more extraordinary than he imagined.
"Do you know Mr. Kuni'o, Michel?"
Michel let out a sigh and said, "This key is undoubtedly from Mr. Kuni'o."
Yuga nodded.
"Then perhaps, aside from Mr. Kuni'o, no one else can help you."
But Mr. Kuni'o had told him not to disturb him unless it was necessary.
With these thoughts in mind, Yuga couldn't help but feel anxious. Well, he thought, I'll go and ask Ryuichi for advice!
"Michel, Fiona, I have something else to attend to, so I'll be going. Let's arrange to meet again!"
Yuga was in a hurry to see Ryuichi now.
"Sure, go ahead with your business. We'll meet another time." Michel nodded.
Before leaving, Yuga exchanged contact information with Michel.
Watching Yuga's hurried departure, Michel commented, "It seems this young man is even more extraordinary than we imagined!"
Fiona also nodded and said, "Indeed! Who would have thought he would have a connection with Mr. Kuni'o?"
Armed with Michel's hint, Yuga rushed back to the estate. When he returned to his small courtyard, he found Bellossom.
"Bellossom, can you take me to see Ryuichi?"
The estate was too vast, and Yuga didn't know where Ryuichi lived, so he turned to Bellossom for help.
"Bellossom, Bellossom!"
Bellossom, who was sweeping the courtyard with a broom, heard Yuga's request, nodded, and although it didn't understand why Yuga wanted to find Ryuichi, it was more than willing to help him.
Following Bellossom through several winding paths, Yuga was led to the entrance of another courtyard.
Bellossom approached the courtyard gate and knocked on it. After the gate opened, a Roserade poked its head out from the gap.
"Roserade!"
The Roserade was delighted to see Bellossom and immediately opened the gate, inviting Bellossom inside. It was clear that the two spirits had a close relationship.
"Bellossom, Bellossom..."
Bellossom held back the excited Roserade and chattered with it for a while. Then the Roserade noticed Yuga standing behind Bellossom.
After a glance at Yuga, the Roserade nodded at Bellossom and then turned around and disappeared back into the courtyard.
When the Roserade returned, it had a message from Ryuichi, and Bellossom led Yuga into the courtyard.
The estate was truly unique, with everything being handled by Grass-type Pokémon. It was an eye-opening experience for Yuga.
As Yuga entered the courtyard, he saw Ryuichi wearing casual home attire and trimming the branches of a flower in the garden.
Upon seeing Yuga, Ryuichi put down his scissors and greeted him warmly, "Young Master Shimizu is here!"
Since Ryuichi hadn't gone out today, he wasn't wearing his usual black suit. Despite his imposing height, he appeared much milder in casual attire, with a friendly smile on his face.
Yuga didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point, "I want to inquire at Luminescent Jewelry Shop, but I wasn't successful. I came to ask if you have any ideas."
"Luminescent Jewelry Shop, huh!" Ryuichi said, looking down for a moment. Then, he smiled and said, "What's that? Come on, I'll accompany you. I guarantee there won't be any issues."
"Don't we need to ask Mr. Kuni'o for permission first?"
Yuga was somewhat worried. Ryuichi's approach seemed too direct. Could they really just show up like this?
Ryuichi waved off Yuga's concerns, saying, "No need to trouble yourself with such small matters, Master. Leave it to me. You won't have to worry about a thing."
Yuga had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Wait here for a moment, Young Master. Let me change into something appropriate."
Ryuichi turned and entered the house. When he emerged, he was back in his black suit, even wearing sunglasses.
Yuga thought to himself, "Come on, Ryuichi, we're not going to a fight! There's no need for this!"
"Let's go, Young Master Shimizu!"
Yuga shook his head weakly and followed Ryuichi briskly.
On the way, Yuga asked Ryuichi, "Ryuichi, why are you so good to me?"
Ryuichi smiled and said, "Well, it's because the Master values you."
"But why does the Master value me?" Yuga asked, puzzled.
Ryuichi shrugged and said, "I don't know that. But the Master has his reasons, and since he values you, you are someone I must respect."
Yuga couldn't quite grasp Ryuichi's logic.
Once they entered Luminescent Jewelry Shop, the same saleswoman who had helped Yuga before approached them.
"Sir, you're back! Are you here to see our manager again?"
However, upon seeing Ryuichi standing next to Yuga, the saleswoman couldn't help but shiver. He was too intimidating with his imposing presence.
Yuga nodded in confirmation.
"Please wait a moment, I'll inform the manager."
The saleswoman rushed off as if fleeing, leaving Yuga rather bemused.
It seemed that Ryuichi's attire was a bit too overwhelming for regular people. Yuga sighed to himself.
Soon, they were once again escorted into a meeting room, where Juliana was already waiting.
"I told you..."
Juliana was about to speak, but as soon as she saw Ryuichi, her voice abruptly trailed off.
"Ryu... Ryuichi... Mr. Ryuichi, why are you here?"
Juliana looked at Ryuichi with a terrified expression. The stern attitude she had displayed earlier had vanished, replaced by fear.
The rapid change in Juliana's demeanor left Yuga and Ryuichi equally stunned.
"I'm here accompanying our young master! He has some questions he'd like to ask!"
Ryuichi casually walked over to the sofa and took a seat.
"Young... young master?"
Juliana looked at Yuga in disbelief.
"Yes, any problem?" Ryuichi asked unapologetically.
"But... but... what the young master wants to know is..."
Juliana stammered.
"No matter what it is! Hurry up and take care of it! Do you want me to personally find Genos?"
Ryuichi furrowed his brow.
"N-no, of course not! I'll go and attend to it right away! Mr. Ryuichi and the young master, please wait a moment."
Juliana quickly rushed out of the reception room.
Seeing this, Ryuichi turned to Yuga and said with a smile, "Come on, Young Master Shimizu, don't just stand there. Have a seat!"
Yuga walked over and sat down, not sure what to say. Even principles couldn't withstand power and influence, it seemed.
Wasn't this a case of abusing authority? Well forget it...
