「Let's split up here」

After getting out of the woods and going far enough that you couldn't even see the research facility any longer, Yurikago stopped her footsteps turned to face Taiyou and said that. When Yurikago halted so suddenly Taiyou was still in mid run. So they had a slight distance between them.

「You want to separate, here?」

「Yeah. Coming this far it's already quite safe, rather than being with you」

「.......Ahh, I suppose so」

Yurikago was speaking in a roundabout way. Taiyou thinks for a little while and comes to the conclusion that her words were reasonable. In the current state, the wanted people who were being chased after were probably Taiyou and Kohaku.

Although it was known that there was another accomplice, Yurikago had always hidden her identity since the beginning, and the Juniishima clan never discovered who third party was. On the other hand since Taiyou attacked the Juniishima residence, he has always been marked as one of the direct perpetrators.

If anyone was going to be chased from here on out, it would be Taiyou. A means to an end, the ideology that Taiyou liked to follow, if he were to apply that train of thought here, than the correct course of action would be to keep away from Yurikago in this situation. Yurikago implied this vaguely, but Taiyou understood her intentions and agreed to her idea.

「Didn't your figure get captured by one of the camera's in the facility, are you sure it will be alright jya?」

「They didn't capture my face, so as long as I am not connected to you guys any longer and I return to the Juniishima clan as Yurikago Juniishima, they won't be able to link me to the scene...That is, as long as none of you say a word about this」

「I see, so I guess there is no problems whatsoever」

Taiyou nods.

Although Taiyou was nodding his head, on the other hand, he was also feeling a reluctance to part. But he pushed such thoughts down to the inner depths of his heart.

「Then, I guess our journey ends here」

「Yeah, Thanks to you I was able to obtain the data, and we were able do it without revealing my existence as Yurikago. With this much I should be able to drive the subject in the direction that I want it to proceed. I really appreciate it」

「It's fine, I was also moving in accordance to my own objectives so. I will entrust you with the matter of Kotone and the girls」

「I will make sure that the Juniishima clan will not be able to touch them again. I.....no」

Her words were cut short, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath before speaking to Taiyou again.

「I swear it upon my name, Yurikago」

「Thank you」

After she said her part, Yurikago turned around and started to walk as her thin twin tail hair swung. She resolutely walked away with great posture and a single minded focus. Until her appearance could no longer be seen, she never turned around. When Taiyou watched her walk away, he breathed out a sigh.

「What's wrong nojya?」

「Ahh nah. As I expected she's really well-bred」

This was by no means a lie.

「Umu, the way she carries herself, and those graceful movements are not something one can acquire in a short amount of time」

Kohaku agreed with Taiyou's impression of her. The lolibaba who has lived a full life also seems to notice it.
