Chapter 233
The reason Emily did this was because she noticed that her brother was acting weird for the past few days . He acted especially weird when he heard that Carlo had returned . At first Emily thought he was just excited that he was finally relieved of the duty of protecting Lilitth . Since he kept on complaining that it was boring .
Still Emily who was good at discerning things felt something was off, not only that seeing as she was really close with her brother made her suspect that something had happened . Emily knew that if she asked her brother what was happening he would never answer properly, since he hasn’t told her anything that meant he wanted to keep whatever this was a secret .
Naturally curious about her brother’s life, Emily placed numerous bugs in his person . Now that she witnessed her brother asking out a teacher from Lilitth’s school to a date, Emily was amazed, happy, and extremely curious .
The first thing she did when she saw her brother asked the teacher called Sarah out to a date, she immediately pulled all the files she could find about her . She even messaged Kei who was better at this kind of stuff to give her everything he could dig up about Sarah Resti .
While waiting for Kei’s response, Emily looked at the files she could find . Sarah Resti born on September 18, 1997, current age twenty two . She was five years younger than Emily’s brother . She’s from an average family, her father is also a teacher of music, her mother is a nurse in the the newly built St . Anita hospital .
Sarah Resti had no criminal records, and her test scores back when she was a student, were a little bit above average . Overall there was nothing remarkable about her at the same time there was nothing bad about her . This information made Emily even more curious . Why did her brother who avoided getting together with anyone suddenly have an interest with this kind of person .
Emily who was thinking hard about the answer to her question, saw something happening in one of the screens where her brother was walking with Sarah Resti . Somebody was actually foolish enough to try and steal Sarah’s bag while she was with Kyle .
Emily saw her brother pick up a random object from the street and threw it at the thief . Her brother’s aim was as usual perfect, the object that he threw hit the head of the thief, knocking him out . He then took the bag back and called the police . As he handed the bag back to the startled Sarah, Kyle smiled at her and then patted her head .
"It’s alright, there’s no need to worry . As long as I’m here, I’ll shoot down all the bad things away . " This was the same exact line Kyle told Emily back when they were younger, as he was still new at being a merc .
"Come on onii-chan, why are you treating her like a little kid . " Emily thought that Sarah would be offended that Kyle was treating her like a little girl . So as she watched on she expected Sarah to get a bit angry . Emily couldn’t see clearly because the security cameras weren’t all that good, still she saw that Sarah actually didn’t swat her brother’s hand away .
"Hmm, you’re getting a bit red, are you alright . " The moment Emily heard her brother ask Sarah this, she immediately understood that Sarah was greatly affected by this move of her brother .
"No, I’m alright . It’s nothing, thank you for getting my bag back . " Sarah hastily replied . Hearing this made Emily even more sure that Sarah was actually embarrassed . It would seem that her brother was actually quite good at this .
Emily was then surprised to see that her brother was actually closing in on Sarah’s face . Was he actually planning to kiss her! Getting a bit excited Emily went nearer to the screen as well as trying to close up the image . Sarah who saw the approaching Kyle, was stunned and felt like Kyle was moving in slow motion .
She was confused as to what was happening, and why he was moving to this stag so fast . She closed her eyes, ready to accept whatever was going to happen . She then felt Kyle’s forehead bump into her own forehead .
"It doesn’t seem like you have a fever . " Emily who was listening in, finally noticed that Kyle was treating Sarah like how he handled Emily when she was smaller . It would seem that because the majority of female interactions Kyle had was with Emily, he only knew how to act this way in front of a girl .
Emily was surprised by her discovery, but was even more surprised that this was actually working . Kyle then took one of Sarah’s hands and held it as he walked forward . Sarah obviously once again surprised didn’t move as she looked at Kyle’s hand that was holding her own hand .
Kyle who finally noticed what he did, didn’t let go of Sarah’s hand instead he asked something . "Oh, I’m sorry . This is just a knee jerk reaction for me . Since when my sister isn’t feeling well, I would hold her hand like this, to make her feel a bit better . If you’re not comfortable with this, please tell me . "
Sarah who was still surprised by the numerous surprise attacks she received was still in a daze . After a few seconds she finally got a hold of herself, and answered .
"Oh, it’s no problem . I actually feel comfortable holding your hand . "
"Is that so, then let’s continue on . " Hearing Sarah’s answer Kyle kept on holding her hand and walked on . Sarah, on the other hand, who was in walking side by side with Kyle, was actually screaming in her head as to why she said that .
Emily who was watching all these transpire was really impressed at her brother . ’As expected of the best sniper, he successfully pulled off numerous surprise attacks, and all of them were deadly shots . ’
