24 Chapter 22 - Meanwhile At America

"Alright, where were we just now? Kenji! Get Marumaru back here, I haven't finished tr.i.m.m.i.n.g her nails yet." "Haha! Very busy indeed." And so, Seito grabs the little ragdoll while Chris gets the nail cutter from the table. "Poor little girl, get injured by your own nails, I should have trimmed it earlier…Ah! Don't bite me, bite Kenji." "Hey!"

When those two finally finish tr.i.m.m.i.n.g the kitten's nails, Chris starts playing with her using a laser pen, suddenly, Yuki came in the room (living room). "Chris, are you busy?" "Yes, super busy." "No! He's h.e.l.l so free!" "Haha, sorry. Is there anything important?" "Yes, I have successfully contacted Mr. Wilson, the archaeologist and arranged to meet him this afternoon." "Good job Yuki. Just hope that the meeting will bring us some results." Said Chris while preparing some cheque. "But Chris, are you sure about this? What if that thing is not what we are looking for?" "Don't worry Kenji, I will consider this (*pointed at the cheque*) as the remaining payment for the debt you owed me since years ago, and of course included the interest." "Uh…That's not what I mean." "And even if that is not what we are looking for, a body that remains 'fresh' and not rotten for years in a luxurious coffin is certainly something that worth of 'investing'." "Ok, I see, let's get prepared for this afternoon then."…

​

Later, afternoon… "As I said earlier, I would not hand over the coffin to anyone." "But that thing could be quite dangerous if it falls into some wrong person's hand." Said Seito to the old archaeologist. "I am an archaeologist, I know what I am doing, this corpse certainly has its historical value." "But.." "Alright, how about this?" said Chris while hand over a cheque written 1 billion USD. "Mister, I think there is some serious misunderstanding here, I'm not the type that will sell out 'history' for money!" "Hmm… I guess so." "I feel like I don't have anything to discuss with you people anymore, I shall take my leave." "Historical value eh? Hold on there…How about…this?"

​ Chris took out a black little box, inside is a platinum ring with the shape of a tiger, decorated with some gems. The old man took over and examining it carefully and get astonished all the sudden "Oh my goodness, I cannot take this, where did you even get this?" With all these words of the old man, Chris just looks at him calmly.

Suddenly, the old archaeologist seems to be realizing something, he quickly kneels down with his head on the ground say: "I'm extremely sorry for my rudeness just now, I'll bring you to the place right now." "Ok, thank you very much for your cooperation." "Uhm… Chris, what was that just now?" "Uh…My tiger ring?" "Anything special about it?" "Haha, don't mind about that, anyway, call Yuki to tag along, I'm sure she will be quite interested to see the coffin." "Yeah…She has the weirdest taste ever."

​

Later, the archaeologist leads them to his mini workshop, they went to the bas.e.m.e.nt, in the bas.e.m.e.nt, there is a luxurious black coffin with golden edges. Chris stared at the coffin for a few seconds before he slowly pushed open the lid…

​"This…" Both Seito and Yuki is shocked by the sight while Chris is as cool as always. "This body looks just like Itsuki-kun!" "He is? I remembered Itsuki is a pair of specs with silver edge and…" "Kenji, our Itsuki doesn't have that type of character setting." "Oh! Sorry." "Ben had." "Ah…"
