"Who knew? Maybe it was because spring had arrived..." Sogo Doma had no idea he was slandering a gorilla. He even put on an expression that said, "I'm only telling you this, so don't tell anyone else." "Anyway, that's what I saw. And Shizuka Hiratsuka saw it too, so..."

She could basically take whatever she wanted and do whatever she pleased there. Under those circumstances, the Kondo Group had no secrets in her eyes! If Hijikata hadn't been so overly serious, she might even
