Chapter 10: Test of Strength

Kiss in the Dark: Right, the deed…. Was there anything else that was stolen?

Tom Collins: I’m sorry for calling you out here so early in the morning. There doesn’t seem to be anything missing from anyone’s rooms. We checked the bar as well. Master was the only one who had access to things inside the study…

Kiss in the Dark: So this is what was stolen from there. We probably don’t have to worry if it was just the deed.

Tom Collins: Is that so?

Kiss in the Dark: You wouldn’t be able to do anything to the property or the building with just that alone. You would have to do various kinds of procedures.

Tom Collins: I’m so glad you came, Kiss in the Dark. So it only deals with the issues of real estate then?

Kiss in the Dark: I didn’t think I could help out at times like this. I’m going to try checking things out too.

*door opens and closes*

Tom Collins: This place is very special to me. I will not let anyone do what they want with it.

Blue Moon: You’re up early. It seems like you still have some troubles. I also feel a lot better whenever I am over there.

American Lemonade: But there’s nothing we can do, right? The deed getting stolen, our forced eviction, so many things are going on right now.

Manhattan: It was such a shock to learn something like that happened last night.

MC: Thank you, everyone. I’m very sorry for asking you to come so early

Screwdriver: Well it’s obvious that we would show! It’s a big problem for us if our bar closes up!

Moulin Rouge: If it’s for you, princess, I’ll fight to the ends of the earth ♡

Pink lady: I heard that he raised a hand at you. I can’t believe he would be violent towards a woman! So, all of us getting together today is a strategy meeting we’re having before work.

MC: The truth is that I’m worrying about opening the bar up today.

Martini: Why do you need to worry about that? We should just open.

MC: But what if they come back…

Screwdriver: Ah, if they come, our other customers might not remain so calm. But don’t worry! I’m working today! They won’t be taking a single step inside our bar.

Moulin Rouge: That’s right. Besides, they might not even come today. And if they do come, I’ll handle it.

Tequila Sunrise: I’m also gonna be working today! I’ll keep those vile varmints away!

American Lemonade: And I’ll keep working hard just like I always do. So don’t make such a worried face!

Blue Moon: I’ll also be working today, and if push comes to shove…heh heh.

Pink Lady: Y-your smile is scary

Manhattan: And if you’re still worried, I’ll be there too. It’ll be okay. If anything happens to you or our customers, I’ll be there to protect you. But because I have work, I might not be able to make it right when the bar opens.

Tom Collins: Haha, we are all such reliable members, aren’t we? If it’s going to be us, then I think work will go smoothly today.

Martini: And if we can get back at those thugs, the fight will be over, and all will be well.

Tom Collins: Don’t be so impatient, Martini. Kiss in the Dark is looking into things for us.

Manhattan: I’ll also try looking around. It’s probably best to have a lot of people working on this.

Tom Collins: Right. It would be a big help for us.

Martini: Guess it can’t be helped. I’ll try looking too.

American Lemonade: I wanna try saying something cool too! If it’s for you, cutie, I’ll pitch in and help out!

Manhattan: You need to be quiet! If an amateur like you snoops around terribly, things will only get unnecessarily complicated.

American Lemonade: I just wanna help…

Tom Collins: What Manhattan says is right. For now, let’s do what we can do for our customers.

Tequila Sunrise: Okay! Then I’ll…

Martini: You muscle brained idiots will all just be working out as usual.

Screwdriver: Right! If anything happens, leave it to us!

Tequila Sunrise: We won’t let our customers or the little lady get hurt!

MC: (I wonder if there’s something I can do… Something for everyone, something for the bar…)
