Chapter 20

"That's true. Since he followed them over, it's obvious he knew the scene that would unfold in that alley. Leaving without taking any action suggests he likely knew the child was fine."

The small child on the ground was highly suspicious; especially a child wearing an adult's outfit—it was simply abnormal.

However, there were no other clues at the scene, so it was impossible to deduce exactly what had happened inside that alley.

But waiting for the diary to update was a very good choice.

Just as Nagi from the academy had already made her decision, Maria reminded the two Young Ladies present.

"Little Nagi, Miss I-Cheng, since we have naturally already decided to wait for the diary's update, shouldn't we also go home to wait?"

"Hmm, indeed we can go back."

Most of the day had actually been quite interesting; it was just that after noon, Nagi from the academy felt restricted and hindered while outside.

Having just obtained the Eye of the God, she was very eager to try it out more.

But with so many people and eyes everywhere outside, it truly wasn't suitable for using the Eye of the God, which made her hold back the whole time.

Returning home now would allow her to wait for the diary's update on one hand, and on the other, she wanted to go back and use the Eye of the God more.

However, in front of Maria and I-Cheng, she wouldn't need to be so restrained.

"..."

Looking at the photos taken by the bodyguard, Kaguya Sigong remained silent for a moment.

"Hayasaka, were there any members of the Sigong family among the bodyguards for this operation?"

"No."

Hayasaka Ai shook her head and denied this point.

"Because I considered this operation of Young Lady Kaguya to carry some delusion, to avoid letting the Sigong family know, I arranged for bodyguards from the Hayasaka family."

"As for loyalty, please rest assured; these people were all borrowed from Mother."

"Hmm, well done."

Hayasaka Ai's caution made Kaguya Sigong feel very reassured.

"No need to stay in this amusement park any longer. As for who this fallen child is, I believe the diary's owner will give me an answer."

"Hayasaka, after we return, have someone keep watch on them and forbid them from speaking a single word about this operation."

"I understand."

Hayasaka Ai bowed slightly; she knew what to do.
