Chapter 173

"As… as long as the accountant finds the materials and checks the accounts, the truth will definitely come out!"

Chairman Otani Toshio was covered in cold sweat, his body trembling slightly, and he threw the materials at Yajima Yugoro, scolding:

"Bastard! Still thinking of muddling through?"

"Do you really think that if you hide the materials in the gymnasium, no one will know?!"

"I advise you to apologize to Miss Mido immediately, right now, otherwise just wait to go to jail!"

Yajima Yugoro was terrified, not understanding at all how they found these materials.

Clearly, he had hidden them very well!

He was terrified, looked up and cried bitterly, begging for mercy:

"I will definitely make up for the money… no, I will make up double… triple, yes triple!!"

"Miss Mido… please give me a chance, I definitely won't do this again in the future!"

"Please don't let me go to jail, I have old people above and young people below, if I fall, what will they do, sob sob sob~"

A strange and indifferent female voice came from the side.

"Go to jail? No—no matter what, I'm not a devil, how could I let you go to jail?"

A black and white coin dropped in front of Yajima Yugoro.

"Give you a chance, if it lands on white, I'll let you go."

Yajima Yugoro's pupils shook, and he shouted in horror:

"I… I am willing to go to jail, I can go to jail, Miss Mido, please, I don't want to flip a coin, can I, I really beg you!!"

The woman's indifferent voice came again.

"I'm in a good mood today, don't let me be disappointed."

Yajima Yugoro was covered in cold sweat, looking at the black and white coin on the ground in a trance and horror, already knowing that he had no choice.

So—he could only flip the coin with a painful face.

The black and white coin rolled in the air.

Yajima Yugoro stared at it in a trance and extreme nervousness.

Finally, the coin landed on the ground, and the front was—white.

Yajima Yugoro was stunned for a long time, then his face was ecstatic, looking at the woman in front of him with expectation.

"Good luck, you can go."

Hearing this, Yajima Yugoro suppressed the joy in his heart and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed a few times.

"Thank you, thank you Miss Mido for giving me a chance!!!"

After speaking, he fled in a panic, not daring to continue staying in this oppressive space.

However, after only a few steps away from the door, the footsteps outside suddenly disappeared.

After Otani Toshio noticed it, his face became even uglier, and he kept wiping the cold sweat on his face with a handkerchief.

He turned to look at the person in front of him, tremblingly: "Miss Mido, since the matter is resolved, can I go…"

"Your head is too high, lower your head."

Chairman Otani Toshio didn't even dare to breathe, and lowered his head quickly.

"Still too high."

Chairman Otani Toshio bowed ninety degrees with his head down.

"Lower."

Chairman Otani Toshio lowered his head almost to his knees, his face pale, and after waiting for a good while, a faint voice came from there.

"Don't think that just because we found Yajima Yugoro, we can't find you."

Hearing this, Chairman Otani Toshio felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, his face pale.

"But no matter what, I'm not a devil, even if you are such lowly rotten meat, I can be merciful and give you a chance."

"Considering you have worked for our family for so many years, pay back ten times the money you embezzled within a month, otherwise you should commit seppuku."

"Can you do it?"

Chairman Otani Toshio was terrified, and his eyes almost went black.

Pay back ten times within a month, how is this possible?!

But he had no choice, and could only agree, otherwise it would only lead to a more miserable ending.

As for the idea of running away, that was even more impossible, because as long as he was in Japan, he couldn't escape the palm of the Mido family.

"Of course I can…"

After getting the reply.

People in the room began to leave the room one after another.

Tap tap tap—

Footsteps sounded in the corridor, neither fast nor slow.

The footsteps became fewer and fewer.

Finally, only the footsteps of two people echoed in the corridor.

Ding—

The elevator that only faculty and staff could use opened.

The elevator began to descend and soon reached the first floor.

Ding—

The elevator door opened.

When the students on the first floor saw who was coming, they were all panicked, and most of them dodged quickly.

Those who couldn't dodge hurriedly bowed 90° to say hello.

"Good morning, President Mido."

"Good morning, President Mido!"

…

That person turned a blind eye and still walked in front.

The corridor, which was originally crowded, became empty and quiet instantly because of her appearance.

Wherever her gaze reached, almost no one appeared.

Natsume Chikage was a little confused, looked left and right, wasn't there a lot of people just now, why were they all gone now?

At this time.

Mido Orihime noticed Natsume Chikage, stopped in her tracks, and just stood in the middle of the corridor.

And Konoe Rin, who was behind her, saw that she didn't walk, and stood behind her without moving.

Natsume Chikage didn't understand why these two people were standing in the middle of the road, but didn't say anything, intending to walk past from the empty left side.

Mido Orihime had princess-cut hair that reached her waist, deep eyes, and a temperament that was almost strange and cold.

She just looked at Natsume Chikage who was walking slowly, and called him:

"Natsume Chikage…"

Hearing this, Natsume Chikage's footsteps stopped instantly, his gaze fell on the folding fan emitting an unusual light in her hand, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he was puzzled:

"Who are you?"

Mido Orihime didn't explain, just walked around Natsume Chikage, neither fast nor slow, her gaze always on him, as if examining something.

Finally.

She stood back in front of Natsume Chikage, gently opened the folding fan in her hand, blocked her cold and beautiful face, tilted her head slightly, and only revealed her strange and deep eyes.

"You—are not human, are you."
