Chapter 273
Hey, Nancy.
What kind of person is Nancys mama?
To Nancy, who has finished a call with her mama, Aya asked a question.
Oh, well,
she always wore jingling accessories.
Anything else?
Hmm, its hard to describe my mom
ah, thats right.
Because I\'ll be holding a party, please attend. Then, Ill introduce you.
Nancys mom, I mean theNancyJewelrys president
that party is going to be luxurious.
Id like to attend, too!!
Of course!Come, come.
Ringo bit on the unexpected thing.
Since Ringo is aspiring to be a designer,
shell be interested in Nancys mom, who is successful as a designer.
By the way, Nancy. When is your mom coming to Japan.
Tomorrow morning.
That\'s quite sudden, huh.
It seems she was quite surprised when she heard about the incident.
She cancelled all her other work and came flying over.
I see, although she hasnt been kidnapped, she wouldve been depending on the situation, its only naturally for her to worry as her mother.
So, Seiji, Id like to go to the airport to meet mama tomorrow, can you come with me?
Ah, its fine.
I actually wanted to clear theTower of Sunrise, but it cant be helped, huh.
Since Nancy was about to be involved in the incident, I also don\'t want to leave her alone.
Thus, the karaoke tournament ended.
***
The next day, Saturday,
with us two, Nancy and I went to Haneda Airport.
The three peopleAya, Elena, and Hildaare staying at home.
Seiji, thank you for coming with me even though its Saturday.
Dont worry about it.
When we were having such a talk, a woman wearing last-boss-style jinggling accessories was approaching us from the opposite side.
That womans walking speed grew faster and faster with every step, finally at the speed that she was almost sprinting, she crashed against Nancy with a tackle.
Nancy!Oh, my Nancy, its good that you were safe!
Wait, Mama!Ouch, ouch!
Somehow or other, this person seems to be Nancys mom.
Shes probably so worried.
Nancy, you arent injured anywhere?
Im fine other than the place where mama tackled me just now.
Thats good~.
Nancys mom kept kissing Nancy on the cheeks while saying so.
Mama, stop it!Because Im not a child.
As one would expect, even Nancy isspoiledby her mom.
By the way, who is that man?
Ah, its Seiji of company.
Ah, that Seiji, huh. Thank you.
What do you mean bythat Seiji?
Oh, well.
First, Ill guide you to the hotel since standing here around talking is hard.
I said so and was about to guide mama-san
No, theres no need for that.
Eh?What does that mean?
Ill take Nancy right now and return to California.
Eeh!!?
I was extremely surprised at the words of Nancys mom,
Nancy was also surprised in the same way as me.
Wai-, mama, why are we going home?
What about the business?
Somehow or other, it seemed to have been a bolt from the blue even for Nancy.
Thats probably right,
but I sent you here because I heard that Japan was a safe country.
Also, I heard that you went to an around-the-world trip behind my back some time ago!
Ive already had enough of you going through dangers.
I understand the feeling, but
Wait a minute!
Its us, who brought thatkind of dangerinto Japan, right!?
This time, I must explain to the director-san of company and the grandchild of the president, who suffered a terrible thing from the mafia.
Ooh, Nancy said something an adult would say.
Understood.
Lets talk about the matter of returning home afterwards.
Nancys mom understood, too. After that, we left the airport.
***
I, together with Nancy and Nancys mom, paid a visit to the presidents grandchild and the director.
There wasnt any serious injury, but both of them has been hospitalized for inspection.
First, we went to the directors sickroom.
Director, Nancy and the president-san of the NancyJewelry came to visit you.
Ooh, did they especially come for me?
Nancys mama said such a thing while shaking hands with the director.
This times incident is a disaster, lets overcome the difficulty together from now on.
When I interpreted what Nancys mom said to the director
Hm?
Maruyama-kun, didnt they come here to apologize?
Probably, I think thats the intention.
Its a strange expression for an apology.
Thats, because they are Americans.
Is it such a thing?
The director doesnt seem to understand it that much and looks strange.
Seiji, is something wrong?
They are anxious about the director and I talking in Japanese.
It seems the director wants to hear the words of apology.
Apology!!What do you mean!?
Nancys mom is surprised this time.
Its a difference between Japanese and American culture.
Theres a custom in Japan that you have to apologize first in this kind of situation.
Oh!Its unbelievable.
Seeing that Nancys mom making an exaggerated surprised gesture, the director is surprised this time.
Wait, Maruyama-kun. Did you interpret the conversation awhile ago?
Yes, I interpreted it.
President-san saidits unbelievable.
Hey!Why did you interpret it!?
Please tell the other party that I apologize for saying such a strange thing.
Eh?
Well, I will interpret it, but
The director said he apologizes for saying such a strange thing.
Eeeh!?
Why are you apologizing?!!?
Nancys moms eyes turned round at the excessive cultural shock.
