Chapter 60 - CALCULATED GAMBIT — ACT 1 : LET THE GAME BEGINS

The next day after the events of the previous chapter at Usui's Mansion...

Komachi, what's our schedule for today? Usui asks coldly.

We only have 1 business meeting for today, Sir. Komachi said coldly The meeting is scheduled at 11:30 P.M. Komachi said coldly.

Cancel that meeting, move it to Wednesday. Same time and same place, Komachi. Usui said coldly.

What?! Komachi said clearly surprised But, this meeting is important...You can't just cancel it like it was nothing, Sir Usui! Komachi protests.

Yes, it was certainly nothing! Usui said sarcastically They're the ones who made an appointment for this meeting with me, that just means that they are the ones who needed it, not me. Usui said coldly Tell them that we will commence the meeting at Wednesday, same time and same place. Usui said coldly Alright, I'll bet 250 million yen that he will agree on what I wanted. Usui said confidently.

You really are hopeless, Sir Usui. Komachi said warily, letting out a sigh Fine, whatever. Komachi said sarcastically.

Yey! Thank you, Komachi! You're the best! Usui said enthusiastically.

That certainly won't work! Komachi said warily.

Komachi dials a phone number and left the study room for a while.

After a few minutes, Komachi came back.

Alright, we've successfully made them agree to move the schedule of the meeting. Komachi said coldly.

I told you. Usui said sarcastically.

Tell me, Sir...What exactly are you planning to do? Komachi said coldly.

Hm, I wonder what? Usui said sarcastically Obviously, we're going to start my plan now to capture the Harmony Duo. Usui said confidently We'll start by finding them and gathering some intel about them, of course. Usui said coldly I pretty much know who we should look for. Usui said confidently.

I knew it, you're really serious about this, aren't you? Komachi said coldly.

Of course, once I've set my mind into something... I'll definitely do it, you know that pretty well too. Usui said coldly.

So, where is this place that you are talking about and who is this person that "we should look for" anyways? Komachi said sarcastically.

Let's go then. Usui said confidently Arrange for the limousine, quickly. Usui said authoritatively.

I really don't know how to deal with you, fine! Komachi said sarcastically.

Komachi left the study room.

Good grief. Usui said sarcastically.

Komachi came back after a few minutes.

The limousine is ready, Sir. Komachi said coldly.

Great, off we go then. Usui said coldly.

Usui left the study room.

There he goes again, I just really hope that he didn't cancelled that important meeting just to go in a gambling den again! Komachi said warily.

Komachi immediately follows behind Usui.

Outside the Mansion...

Good morning, Master Usui. The Driver said coldly.

Good morning to you too. Usui said coldly.

Where are we going? Driver asks curiously.

We'll be visiting some prisoners. Usui said sarcastically.

You can't be serious about this, Sir. Komachi said hesitantly.

Why? Of course, I am. Usui said confidently.

Usui enters the limousine.

Are you just going to stand there, Komachi? Usui said expectantly.

Tsk, I am going in! Komachi said coldly.

Komachi enters the limousine as well.

Off we go. Usui said authoritatively.

Right away, Master. Driver said coldly.

The limousine drives away from the Mansion.

What exactly are you planning to do, Sir? Visiting someone in prison, are you serious? Komachi asks expectantly.

Remember, the entire Romano Mafia Family was imprisoned in the MPD Prison. Usui said coldly They're the one who have potentially encountered the Harmony Duo and I'll bet 30 million yen that they actually did, I know they can provide us some valuable intel about them. Usui said confidently I'll bet 5 million yen that they'll do it. Usui said coldly.

Fine, you've got a point. Komachi said coldly.

After an hour of driving, they finally reaches their destination.

Seems like we're here. Usui said coldly.

Usui goes out of the limousine and proceeds to go inside the Prison.

Hey, wait! Komachi said warily Please, wait for us here. Komachi said coldly.

Komachi follows behind Usui.

Officer, I want to talk to someone that you've arrested in the Fish Port last time. Usui said confidently.

Oh, the one that we've arrested due to the Fish Port bombing last time? Unfortunately for you, but, they aren't allowed to take any visitors yet...every single one of them. Officer said coldly.

Oh, really? Usui said sarcastically.

Yes, really. Officer said coldly.

Alright then, let's gamble. Usui said coldly If I win you'll grant me access to meet one of them, If you win then I'll gladly leave here not just that... I'll bet my entire Mansion and the 100 million yen that is stored in the safety vault inside. Usui said confidently.

Sir Usui! Komachi said warily.

It's alright... Remember, I have a lot of Mansions around. Also, that 100 million is nothing compared to my net worth and fortune... Besides, I am going to win. Usui said confidently.

Are you sure about this, Sir? Officer said coldly.

Of course, I am. Why wouldn't I be? Usui said confidently.

Alright then, don't ever cry in front of me if I have acquired your Mansion and 100 million right here! Officer said enthusiastically.

We'll see about that. Usui said confidently.

What do you want to play then? It's your call. Officer said coldly.

Let's play a game called "Which hand" it's a simple and common game, we'll toss the coin and one of us will guess which hand is the one who is holding the coin. Usui said coldly Just your usual party games, right? Usui said sarcastically How about 2 turns each player, Officer? Usui said coldly.

Fine, let's do that! Officer said confidently.

That's more like it, let the game begins. Usui said confidently.
