章 51: Kanako's Desires - Part 5

Several days passed, and Kanako's father returned home.

It was relatively late at night and the apartment was only lit up by a few dim lights.

"I must say, good work, Hanae. I never expected you to improve so much."

"U-um, Father, can you continue to make Mizuhara my tutor? I still have much to impro—"

"Sorry, I'm afraid Mizuhara didn't become your tutor because he wanted to."

"W-what do you mean...?"

"I was going to tell you this at some point—I threatened him."

"Y-you threatened him...?"

"Yes, now that he's completed the task I set for him, I'm not going to be able to control him anymore."

"But... why...?"

Kanako's father took a seat at the dinner table.

As Kanako tried to come to terms with what she heard, her father began making his way into his room. He had just had a long trip back and was quite tired. Her father made his bed and lay in the blankets.

A few minutes later, Kanako barged into the room.

"I want to transfer to National High School."
