Chapter 107: Whalebone

The next day, at a newly-built standalone house in Wanjin, Endo Chiyoda was preparing to head out.

Today was her first day "on the job," so she got up especially early, washed up carefully, styled her hair neatly, tying her long hair at the end in a little "tail knot," and deliberately chose a short-sleeved top with hakama pants for ease of movement.

At a glance, she looked rather like a kendo club girl from a modern-day Japanese high school.

After checking several times that her mental state and attire were both fine, she finally stepped out the door and made her way to Harano's residence to report in.

Hutaro naturally followed along to act as her bodyguard, and the two hurried down the road, soon meeting Harano.

Since she was just taking up her post, of course Harano needed to guide her, explain her responsibilities, and as soon as he saw her arrive, he welcomed her politely, had someone bring tea, then spread out an enormous blueprint before her.
