The Bewitching Beauty Yotsuba Maya
The brother and sister, following Butler Hayama through the corridor, soon arrived at a tightly closed double wooden door.
Hayama placed his hands on the doorknob and then pushed it open forcefully.
What came into their view was a woman of great elegance and exceptional beauty.
Her long, flowing black hair cascaded down to her waist, and she possessed an exquisite appearance that could captivate any man and a slender figure that would make any woman envious.
Especially the sexy black and red dress the woman was wearing, which accentuated her curvaceous figure to the extreme.
Her full breasts looked as if they might burst out of her dress at any moment.
The woman reclined languidly on the deck chair, every gesture exuding allure.
"Sit down, Tatsuya, Miyuki!"
The beautiful woman parted her lips slightly, her voice as clear and melodious as a lark's, adding to her forbidden allure.
Shiba Miyuki seemed a bit reserved until Shiba Tatsuya Shiba Miyuki at her arm.
"Yes, Aunt!"
The recliner had been removed, and the beautiful woman who had been there earlier was now sitting gracefully in front of it, her delicate little feet slightly raised.
She picked up the fragrant and rich original-flavor black tea and took a small sip to her red lips.
Sitting opposite them were the Shiba Siblings; all the other servants, including Hayama, had also left.
"Well, I think you've probably already guessed why I called you back this time, Tatsuya."
Compared to Shiba Miyuki's restraint, Shiba Tatsuya, who was suddenly called out, behaved much more normally.
He placed his hands on his knees and stared directly into Yotsuba Maya's eyes without any fear.
"Yes, Aunt."
"You must be thinking about the recent attacks on highly skilled technical personnel from various countries."
"Good!"
Yotsuba Maya nodded, then continued to add.
"However, that was only a few days ago. The situation has changed again, which is why I asked Miyuki to come back with you."
Indeed, Shiba Tatsuya had many questions about the matter that Yotsuba Maya was mentioning at this moment.
The attack on FLT is indeed a very important matter, especially for Yotsuba.
After all, this company is the main source of income for the Yotsuba family, which values militarized power. The theft of its data is indeed worth the Yotsuba Family going to great lengths for.
This warrants a major undertaking, namely, utilizing its nuclear-weapon-like power.
However, that's about all there is to it.
There's absolutely no need to involve Shiba Miyuki, the strongest candidate for the next head of the family. It's better to let her continue to enjoy her carefree school life.
They didn't even need to go there in person; Yotsuba Maya could simply give the order remotely.
Shiba Miyuki still had some questions in her mind.
Shiba Tatsuya then made a gesture indicating that he was willing to hear the details.
"Iwao Takuma was confirmed dead the day before yesterday."
Shiba Miyuki covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes wide open, frozen as if she were a marble statue.
Not to mention Shiba Miyuki, even Shiba Tatsuya showed a rare expression of surprise.
"Hehe--!"
Silvery laughter once again came from Yotsuba Maya's red lips. The beautiful woman in front of her laughed so hard that her ample breasts trembled with her shaking body.
"I never thought you'd have a day like this!"
"Isn't this perfectly normal? Aunt, you should know just how shocking your story is."
Even if he was surprised, it was only for a brief moment, Shiba Tatsuya immediately returned to his usual expressionless demeanor.
"That's true!"
Yotsuba Maya also sighed with emotion.
Iwao Takuma is not a well-known name worldwide. In fact, many people would wonder who this guy is if he were mentioned.
Even the fact that Yotsuba, the strongest of Japan's Ten Master Clans, was chosen as the leader of the clan showed a sigh of regret.
That's because he was once the leader and founder of the First Research Division Institute, one of the ten research institutes that created the Ten Master Clans.
Even now, he remains one of the few people who wield the highest power in Japan, and his orders are like imperial edicts to the magicians who graduated from the First Research Division.
And this man, whose mere tremor could cause a major earthquake in Japan, has already passed away.
How could this not shock Shiba Tatsuya and Shiba Miyuki!
"Are the methods used in the attacks the same as those used to attack people at those prestigious research institutes?"
Shiba Tatsuya immediately pressed for more information, his words unusually tinged with urgency.
Yotsuba Maya nodded slightly.
"That's right, his body was also covered in black runes of unknown meaning, which did not disappear even after he died."
At this point, Shiba Tatsuya fully understood Yotsuba Maya's intentions and just how dangerous the attackers were.
"So what do you need me to do?"
Shiba Tatsuya spoke succinctly, his back ramrod straight, ready to receive orders at any moment.
"Yes, then let's protect Todo Aoba, the host."
"I'm entrusting you with the task of investigating the forces behind this incident."
Like the murdered Iwao Takuma, Todo Aoba was a very important figure in Japan, as well as a former sponsor and controller of the Fourth Research Division Institute.
Yotsuba Maya said with considerable confidence, as if handing the matter over to Shiba Tatsuya would already solve it.
"I see!"
Yotsuba Maya Shiba Tatsuya nodded in agreement, and Shiba Tatsuya handed him a slip of paper from the table.
