Chapter 1289 Investment Bank and Shiina's Secret

Sis-Con with Dimensional Chat Group

Even though the previous mood was quite weird, everyone ate breakfast with gusto since it tasted so good!

Everyone finished their breakfast, Haru would need to go to his cafe, but before that, Seri had something that she wanted to talk with him about.

"Right, Haru."

"What's wrong, Seri?" Haru asked.

"Here's the plan for your investment bank," Seri said.

"Is it done?" Haru felt a bit surprised since it was a bit fast. He looked at Seri and asked, "You've prepared this plan for a while?"

"Umm..."

Seri nodded with a blush. She knew that Haru was a genius at economic matters, but then there was a limit to doing something alone and sooner or later, there would be jealous people who tried to block his way.

"Let me read it first," Haru said.

"Yes."

Haru started to read the plan of his investment bank and he understood in an instant that there wasn't that much different from other investment banks, especially in terms of rates. However, it didn't really matter since even one of the largest investment banks such as Lehman Brothers also had gone bankrupt.

'But it'll take a lot of time...'

Haru needed a lot of money and the faster the better it was.

"Change the minimum account to 100 million yen," Haru said.

"100 million yen? Isn't that a bit too high?" Seri asked.

100 million yen, which meant, it was 1 million dollars the US.

Only some high earners could have that much money in their account.

"Yes, we're going to take an elite route," Haru said. He wanted to have allies and of course, the strong people in this world were those rich people. It might seem cruel, but in truth, he didn't really want to manage the money of someone else since it was troublesome, however, he needed to do this for the progress of his business.

When Seri heard about the elite route, she understood instantly. "Then I'll start the plan right away. The next problem is the clients, but there shouldn't be a problem since your name is very famous."

"You're going to open an investment bank?" Kirari suddenly interjected.

"Yeah."

Haru nodded since he didn't have anything to hide.

"Finally, you have decided to open an investment bank..." Kirari was very happy when she heard the news.

"...You want me to open one?" Haru asked with curiosity.

"Yes."

Kirari nodded and said, "Many of our alumnus schools want their money to be managed by you after all and once you've opened the investment bank then I'm sure that they'll open an account without hesitation." She also had promoted her husband-to-be in the elite group of people and at the same time, there were also a lot of people who asked her whether she could ask Haru to handle their money.

Kirari knew that once this investment bank opened, then his status in this country would be even taller and then he would become the "Fifth Zaibatsu".

If Kirari read around 800 chapters of "One Piece", then she would think that this story was a bit similar to Haru's journey to becoming "Fifth Zaibatsu".

Luffy needed two years or more to become "The Fifth Emperor" in the "New World" and the time for Haru to become "Fifth Zaibatsu" was about the same.

Haru, Seri, Ritsu, and Kirari were talking to each other about his investment bank.

When it ended, Kirari didn't waste her time and quickly went out to promote his business since she wanted to support him as much as she could.

Haru was really glad to have Kirari as his girlfriend.

"That's right, you should join a party or too to promote your business," Kirari said before she came out.

"Do I have to?" Haru asked.

"Yes. I'll accompany you." Kirari looked at Eriri and said, "If I'm not wrong there should be a party at Sawamura-san's house, right?"

"Eh?"

Eriri, who was playing a game with Sora, Megumi, Utaha, and Erina, stopped when her name was being called.

"Is there a party at your house?" Sora asked.

"Yeah. My father is a diplomat after all, and he often hosts parties to socialize," Eriri said.

"Sounds troublesome," Utaha said.

"Yeah. It's troublesome," Eriri said with a sigh. She looked at Haru and said, "If I'm not wrong, you've been invited several times, your secretary tells my father that you've been very busy."

"Oh..."

Haru looked at Seri who gave him a gesture that she was the one who rejected all the invitations.

"Do you want to come?" Seri asked.

"I don't want to either, but I have to do it at least once, right?" Haru said. It wasn't his first time at a party, but frankly, it was boring. If he didn't meet Erina at that time, then he would go back quickly without hesitation.

"So do any of you want to come too?" Kirari asked.

"...."

Everyone was stunned for a bit since it would be their first time at a wealthy class party.

"Forget it. It's too troublesome," Kirari said.

"I don't want to go," Sora said.

"Well, I'm a bit curious," Megumi said.

"I'll come then," Erina said.

Kirari nodded at Erina's words, then she looked at Megumi. "Megumi, do you have a dress?"

"No."

Megumi shook her head, after all, she was coming from a normal family, and even though she had a casual dress, she didn't have a dress for something like a formal party, after all, she didn't need one.

"Let's go with me now, Megumi. We can buy a dress after this," Kirari said.

"Eh?" Megumi was surprised.

"Let's go."

Kirari pulled Megumi directly without waiting for her to refuse and left his house.

"...."

"Wait, Kirari! I also want to look at the dress!" Utaha suddenly said.

"Then me too!" Sora said.

Eriri was confused, but her hand was being pulled by Sora too.

In the end, Sora and Utaha also felt interested in the dress and also felt quite curious about the party.

Kirari stopped and asked, "Erina, how about you?"

"Don't worry about me," Erina said simply since she wanted to stay with Haru.

"Alright."

Kirari knew that Erina was also a lady from a big family so she didn't force her to come with her. Looking at everyone, she smiled and thought it would be fun to bring all of them to the party later.

It was Sunday, he thought to go to a cafe, but Erina also told him that she wanted to go to his cafe too since it had been a while since she was there.

Both of them went to the cafe together while talking to each other inside the car.

However, there was something unique about this conversation since Erina laid her head on Haru's thigh.

Haru sighed and thought that it would be the other way around, but he didn't think too much.

Erina acted in a spoiled way and asked, "L - Let's do it..."

"Here?"

"St - Stupid! Let's go home after your matter at the cafe ends," Erina said.

"Good. Let's go to your house after this," Haru said while caressing Erina's hair.

Erina closed her eyes and felt very comfortable.

"Does it still hurt?" Haru asked.

"No, but..." Erina wanted to do it again.

"Don't worry, you won't sleep tonight," Haru said.

Erina blushed and hit Haru's chest to hide her embarrassment.

Both of them flirted with each other until she remembered something.

"I've heard that you're going to buy Kikkoman, is that true?" Erina asked.

"Yeah." Haru nodded and asked, "What do you think?"

"Finally, you're going to reach your hands into the food industry?"

Erina knew that Haru owned a lot of business, but it was mostly in the media.

"I'll buy a lot of things that are related to food in the future," Haru said.

"Don't worry, I'll help you by that time," Erina said confidently. When she saw how Kirari was able to help him, she felt a bit jealous since she felt that she could do nothing for him, but when she heard that he was going to buy a company that was related to the food industry then she could help him which made her happy.

Then before long, they arrived at the cafe, but then there was something which surprised them.

Shiina was about to enter the cafe, but her stomach seemed to be bloated at that moment.

"H - Haru!!"

Shiina was very nervous when she saw him.

Haru looked at Shiina's stomach and asked, "What's wrong with your stomach?"

"I - I have eaten too much and become fat!" Shiina said nervously.

"..."

Haru and Erina were speechless.

"Meow!"

"....."

"Meow!" Shiina quickly mimicked the "meow" noise, but it was too late. "I - I try to mimic the cat's sound!" Her expression was very serious, but everyone could tell that this girl was very bad at lying.

"Shiina, what are you hiding under your clothes?"
