Helping Yuka and Hiromi
After helping Chie and Yuko it was time to help Yuka Kasuga and her sister Hiromi from episode 9. "Okay everyone I'm going to need your help big time with this quest" Reina said to her companions. "What are we going to do Reina-san?" asked Wanyuudou. "Save two girls from losing their dream shop from a despicable man named Shinya Morizaki" said Reina.
Reina explained Shinya Morizaki wants to ruin Hiromi's dream cake shop because she refused to date him. "That man is a real pervert and old enough to be her dad so it's no wonder she refused to give in to him" said Reina. "I don't believe anyone would want to date a man like that" said Hone Onna. "So the task is this time is we prevent Yuka and Hiromi from losing their shop and expose that despicable man's motives," said Reina "Wanyuudou you will keep an eye on Morizaki and if he tries to do anything like spread lies about Hiromi's shop or do anything else terrible you stop him okay?". "I understand Reina-san" said Wanyuudou. "Hone Onna and Ren, later on Mr Morizaki will be hosting a party to show off his desserts," said Reina "you two will be reporters at the party and expose him after I get some evidence. And Ren keep an eye on him as well when he is alone". "Got it Reina-san" said Ren. "Yamawaro you will pretend to be a regular customer at the shop when it opens and spread out how delicious the girl's desserts are" said Reina. "Okay" said Yamawaro. "As for me I need to talk to those girls" said Reina.
Reina disguised herself as an old woman and made her way to Yuka and Hiromi's shop. At the moment they were still setting up their new shop. Using her powers, Reina made out she was the girl's father's old friend and Hiromi and Yuka let Reina into their shop. "Your new cake shop is coming along nicely" said Reina. "We can't believe that we are making our dream of owning our own shop a reality" said Yuka. "It's all thanks to all the part time jobs Yuka did that we were able to do this," said Hiromi "but I still have loans to pay back though". "Don't worry," said Reina "I'm sure your delicious cakes will help pay off". "To tell you the truth I have been thinking we should show some of your desserts of to your old boss Mr Shinya Morizaki, Hiromi" said Reina. "No, you mustn't do that!" interrupted Reina, so suddenly, "if you do that you girls will end up losing your shop because of that man".
Reina started telling the girls a story about two girls she knew who lost their own bakery thanks to a baker they used to work for. (The story she's telling is really Yuka and Hiromi's story from the anime) "Their boss was a real perverted, despicable old man who sexual harassed younger women," continued Reina "so when the girls opened up their own shop he was angry not only because they left his services, but for refusing to date him. So he got revenge by stealing their recipes and claiming them as their own, and make the girls run out of business by using dirty tactics". "That's unforgivable!" gasped Yuka. Hiromi thought so too. "Mr Morizaki might do the same thing to us Yuka" said Hiromi. She started telling Yuka and Reina about Mr Morizaki tried to get her to date him while she worked for him, but she refused to. Yuka couldn't believe her ears. "Since that did happen then it's best you don't show off your desserts to him," said Reina "the girls I just told you about made that mistake too". "What should we do?" asked Yuka, fearing that Mr Morizaki will do something. "You girls continue setting up your new shop, I have some old friends that I can ask for help" said Reina. "What?!" gasped Yuka. "Listen you two will need serious help with preventing Morizaki from ruining you," said Reina "and I'm the woman for this job; I am a woman who likes to stop despicable people like him from ruining other people's lives". Yuka and Hiromi decided not to say anymore and agreed to do as they were told.
After Yuka and Hiromi first opened up their shop, Yamawaro and Wanyuudou got to work. Yamawaro entered the shop as a first customer and bought a cake. Then he started acting like an excited kid while walking around, eating the cake and started out shouting how delicious it was and such. This was part of the task Reina had him do to promote the shop. As for Wanyuudou he entered Morizaki's shop as a customer, keeping a close watch on him. It was a good thing too because Mr Morizaki had heard about Hiromi's new cake shop and he was already starting to make plans to take revenge on her.
Right now a woman was buying a cake from his shop and she was talking about Hiromi's new cake shop and wondered what that shop was like. One of Mr Mirozaki's employees starting telling her a rumour about how dirty the shop was; this was one of Mr Mirozaki's terrible schemes. Wanyuudou spoke up to take action. "Excuse me young man but what you just said is not true," he said "I am a health inspector for shops and restaurants and I just inspected that cake shop belonging to Hiromi Kasuga. That shop is perfectly clean and had passed my inspections. So young man, there is no need for you to start spreading lies like that around". The employee flinched with embarrassment. "Sorry I have made a mistake" he said so suddenly. The customers were starting to feel confused and uncomfortable about what just happened.
Mr Morizaki who heard everything frowned with anger; he didn't expect for someone to come into his shop and stand up for the girls. But he wasn't going to give up so easily.
So far everything was going well for Yuka and Hiromi. Thanks to Yamawaro, people started going into their shop and buying cakes from them. Reina and her companions were watching. "Everything seems to be okay here" said Ren. "Yes, but we are not finished yet," said Reina "Mr Morizaki may ask someone to steal Hiromi's desserts next. And he will be asking the manager of the bank, the girls got their loans from, to help him too. Those two are friends". The companions were not happy to hear that. "So Ren you will continue to keep your eye on Mr Morizaki, Wanyuudou you and Hone Onna will protect the shop from thieves, and Yamawaro I want you to enter the bank manager's office and gather evidence of him and Mr Morizaki together". The companions understood on what they had to do.
Reina's thoughts turned out to be true because Mr Morizaki tried to have some of his employees steal some of Hiromi's desserts during the night. But Hone Onna and Wanyuudou were there to stop them. Yuka and Hiromi were not happy to hear what had been happening when Reina told them. "We need to do something sis," said Yuka "we can't let that man get away with this". "You're right Yuka but we can't afford a lawyer and if we do something I fear that Mr Morizaki will do something worse than he has already done" said Hiromi.
At that moment an employee from the bank entered the shop and he told Hiromi that she needed to pay back a loan soon, or they will foreclose the shop. "But I've already paid a payment and not due to pay another for another two weeks" said Hiromi. "I'm sorry, but somethings have changed and there's nothing I can do about it" said the bank agent. This was another move by Morizaki with the help from the bank manager. Reina made a quick move and removed some money from her magic bag. She gave it to Yuka and made her believe this was spare money she saved from her part time jobs. Yuka gave the money to the bank agent and the bank agent accepted it and left. Hiromi was surprised that Yuka had extra money for an emergency, but she was happy this was one problem sorted. But the troubles weren't finished yet because obviously the bank agent will come again for more payments. "I bet Mr Morizaki was behind this" said Yuka, angrily. Hiromi thought so too. "It's as I said to you girls before," said Reina "Mr Morizaki isn't going to give up until he succeeds of putting your shop out of business". "This unforgivable!" shouted Yuka "we can't let him get away with this! We need to do something". "You can leave that to me;" said Reina "I know exactly how to expose a despicable man's ways. You two just continue looking after your shop and I'll do the rest". Yuka and Hiromi wondered what Reina was going to do but she left before they could ask her questions.
At the bank, the manager had received the money from his employee. Mr Morizaki was there too because he was asking the bank manager to help him; just as Reina had thought he would. "I'm sorry the girls were able to pay this payment I sent out Mr Morizaki" said the bank manager. "That's alright;" said Mr Morizaki "those girls were lucky this time but I'm confident they weren't be so lucky next time. I'm just sorry I'm asking you for help". "Not at all my friend" said the bank manager. There were indeed friends. What they didn't know was Yamawaro was in the office, disguised as a fungus plant, recording everything the two men were saying.
A few days later it was time for the party Mr Morizaki was hosting. "This is it everyone," Reina said to her companions "it's time to expose Mr Morizaki's wicket nature". Her companions understood. "Now I'm going to get the last piece of evidence we need" said Reina. She disguised herself as Yuka. "I'm going to make that man reveal everything on what that man is planning to do and record it; I'll meet up with you guys in a moment". Wanyuudou and Yamawaro went into the party disguised as party guests and Ren and Hone Onna went in disguised as reporters.
Right now Mr Morizaki was getting ready in the dressing room, already to present himself to the party. But then Reina, disguised as Yuka, barged in. "I know what you have been doing!" she shouted "you've been trying to get my sister out of business and tried to make us lose our shop all because she refused to date you! You're a despicable old man!" Mr Morizaki just snorted. "It's your sister's fault for refusing my special treatment;" he said "I admit I wouldn't be doing this if she just accepted me and continued working under me. So you better watch your shop in case anything else happens". Reina growled with anger, seeing how Mr Morizaki felt no remorse from this. "You're not getting away with this" she said, and walked out in a huff. Mr Morizaki just shrugged it off; he had no idea Reina had recorded everything he said.
Reina stopped her disguise and went into the party as a guest. Her companions were waiting for her. She gave her tape recording to Ren. "You two know what to do" she said to Ren and Hone Onna. That was the signal for the quest to start. It wasn't long till the party was going on and the guests were tucking into his cakes and other desserts.
Just as Mr Morizaki was going to get interviewed, Ren and Hone Onna got in quickly. "Hey I've heard rumours that you've been trying to ruin a new bakery run by Hiromi Kasuga all because she refused to go out with you" said Hone Onna. "And I've heard you've been asking the bank manager of this town to help you close up the shop" said Ren. Mr Morizaki flinched from hearing those words. The guests heard what Ren and Hone Onna just said and wondered what was going on. "What are you talking about?" said Mr Morizaki, trying to get himself out of that by lying. "I would never do any such thing to anyone who used to work under me". "Oh really?" said Hone Onna "then explain these". She and Ren held up the tape recorders Reina and Yamawaro gave them. Hone Onna first played the recording between him and Reina, while she was under the disguise of Yuka. Then Ren played the recording between him and the bank manager. The party guests heard everything. Mr Morizaki flinched with panic; as his secret schemes had been exposed, there was no chance of him getting out of this. The guests and other reporters started questioning him at once. Reina and her companions smirked with their triumphant.
News of what happened at the party spread around the town like wild fire. People couldn't believe what Mr Morizaki had been trying to do to the Kasuga sisters and they were also shocked the bank was backing him up. Mr Morizaki's cake shop started to lose customers and the bank manager was replaced because he couldn't be trusted anymore. Both Mr Morizaki and the ex-bank manager were in terrible disgrace and they ended up ruined.
Because of what happened business started booming in Hiromi's shop. Customers came into her shop not only to buy her products but also to talk to her. "We heard about Mr Morizaki;" said a customer "it's wicked of what he was trying to do to you". "Yes but I'm glad everything is alright now and I can keep my shop" said Hiromi. Secretly she was glad Mr Morizaki was unable to give her any trouble now and so was Yuka.
So now Yuka and Hiromi could finally run their dream cake shop and this time Mr Morizaki didn't ruin their dream.
Hope you like how I helped Yuko and Hiromi. I wonder how the bank manager, in the anime, felt after Mr Morizaki went to hell; I bet he was in fear while still living and kept himself silent. I also bet he didn't do anything to the girls again either.
