 ーA few days later.


Jay: Huff... I'm home.

Billy: Ah, Jay! Welcome baaaaack ♪
Hey, hey, how did filming the CM turn out? You said it was today, right?

Jay: Yeah. We ended filming with no problems or accidents.

Billy: Waaaaoh, you make it sound so easy! Couldn't expect less from our battle-hardened Super Hero!
I wonder if I'll also stop getting nervous when filming CMs once I get to your age, Jay~?

Jay: Ahahah, but I do get nervous, you know? It's just that I already appeared in this CM.

Billy: 「Singing ♪ Dancing ♪ Shaking donuts!」 right! ♪
Being able to appear in that famous donut company's CM is ssssso impressive! ♡

Jay: If you work hard, I'm sure that one day you'll also get to be in one. Actually, you look like you'd be able to pull it off easily. People would come after you after appearing in one once.

Billy: Yaaay~ I've got an endorsement from Jay! I better start polishing my image right now~ ♪

Jay: That reminds me... Are you by yourself, Billy?

Billy: YES! Asch-paisen went out and Gray is in our room~

Jay: I see... Asch looks very busy lately, don't you think?

Billy: I know, right!? I feel like there's something going on...
I wonder what he's hiding from us?
I don't think that's the case at all, but maybe he has a lover!? That's not the case at all, though.

Jay: Now, now. Why are you so sure "that's not the case at all"?



Billy: Because Asch-paisen has already his honey, his fried chicken...
Juuuust kidding~!
Not stopping when something piques your interest is in an informant's nature! I'll uncover the truth somehow~!

Jay: Now, now... It might be something private, don't snoop around too much, okay?
That aside, what about Gray?

Billy: He said he was sleepy~
We trained in the gym today and at first he looked okay but then ran out of air.
I suggested going to the medical office, but he said a nap would do the trick...

Jay: I see...

Billy: ......
Listen, Jay. Brad-paisen asked me to take care of something...

Jay: Hm? Ahh, you're referring to the investigation into the illegal auction?

Billy: Yup, yup. I'm already done looking into it.

Jay: Oh, couldn't expect less from you. I'm sure Brad will be happy as well.

Billy: Yep, he did say I did a great job. He still wants me to help with something, so that doesn't seem to be the end of the matter. 
I expect to receive a formal request to treat this as a special mission any time soon.

Jay: You think?

Billy: You'll also get the details, but it seems like they want to verify whether rumors of a substance being sold at the auction are true.
But I probably won't be enough so it seems they're involving Victor-paisen, too. I wonder if that means I'll be a supporter.

Jay: I see...

Billy: So... if I participate in this mission, I'll probably be busy.
You have your CMs, no? I'll be on a special mission and Asch-paisen is doing whatever he's doing. Everyone is busy with their things...

Jay: And because of that you can't help but worry about Gray, huh...

Billy: Yeah~

Jay: Hmm...

Billy: After you asked, I've looked into it a little more.
No, I actually waited for Gray to open up by himself, but... it's more like, I stumbled across rumors?

Jay: What kind of rumors?

Billy: About that... Have you played "Happy World Hero" recently?

Jay: Not at all... I was thinking of playing during my time off, but I kind of forgot how to play.

Billy: Okay...... Well, the truth is, something happened in-game that caused a bit of a stir.
"Jet" has reappeared and is going on a rampage...

Jay: What?
