Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

Instead of moving via the bathroom, I entered from the outside of the hospital, took the formal visit procedure, and went to Colette-chans hospital room.

Of course, no matter how private the room shes in, I dont teleport directly into her room every time.

Youll never know when the Doctor, doing his rounds, will arrive, or when the nurses will come to check on her IV.

Even if she is not sick, Colette-chan needs to be nourished, and she needs to be given several intravenous drips every day to prevent suppuration, and shes not able to eat a full meal for now.

Besides, Colette-chan seems to be getting special treatment, so she seems to be visited more often to see how shes doing.

So thats why I teleported outside the hospital and properly passed through the reception desk.

Sabine-chan, however, was so bothered by this that she demanded a transition to the toilet, so I allowed it only during times when they were definitely not making their rounds, during meal times, or afternoon.

Otherwise, we properly transitioned outside the hospital.

Now Sabine-chan is not here (shes up all night playing games and currently sleeping at my Japanese home) and theres a stranger.

Not an adult, but a little girl, about the same age as Colette-chan.

Since she is in pajamas, she may be a patient.

If this is this girls everyday clothes for walking around town, then we have a bit of a problem.

Children who were in the hospital for long periods of time get bored and wander around the hospital, you know, except for those who were seriously injured or too sick to get out of bed

And then she found a hospitalized patient her own age

This girl doesnt seem to have any injuries that would require her to be hospitalized, so I guess shes sick.

Even so, if she really is a patient Then

Are~, did you make a friend? (Mitsuha)

I smiled at Colette-chan and her guests.

Yeah! Its my friend, Laurin-chan! (Colette)

Im sorry to bother you, my name is Laurin!

Following Colette-chan, the girl greets me with a smile.

Umumumu.

There is nothing unnatural about the girls appearance.

And that part is unnatural

No, there should be something!

Like panicking about meeting your friends family for the first time, or the anxiety of suddenly meeting them at an unexpected time

A perfectly smooth smile and answer without such things.

Yeah, smells like a pro, a child actress in the entertainment industry

Nice to meet you! I am her sister, Aletta. (Mitsuha)

Pleased to meet you! (Laurin)

See, she just made an Eh? face! But only for a brief moment.

Based on my apparent age, it should be easy to guess that I am Colette-chans older sister.

So why did she react so unexpectedly? Even if it was only for a moment.

No, she could tell from our hair, eyes, skin color, and appearance that we were not similar.

Still, I may be her half-sister, her sister-in-law, and so on. And yet, that blatant Im in an unexpected situation! face. Whats with that reaction, I wonder?

And her response was natural, but Im older At her age, shell be gradually making slip-ups

If a little girl was surprised that I was Colette-chans sister, she would normally have a much bigger reaction, like What?. She would be letting her voice slip out of her mouth

What kind of self-control was that? A slight swaying facial expression for a moment?! Did you have any kind of training?!!

or rather, I guess she did train

I told Colette-chan in advance that I would use a false name to third parties.

Its a different name registered in the hospital records, a name that was not even the same as the one that was knighted in a certain country.

And Colette-chan must not have said a single word to anyone about us or her family.

Its the thing that makes them feel uncomfortable or be skeptical of my name and my relationship with Colette-chan, and then slightly expresses it.

She knew my name and my relationship with Colette-chan beforehand. So she was at a loss for words for a moment. Because she couldnt speak the lines that she had prepared.

And if she was surprised that I am the sister, her reaction would have been much greater.

For a normal girl around 10 years old, that is.

Yes, normally

And as a bonus, shes cute. Very cute.

No, its true that all the girls I met in the other world were cute.

But thats because all the girls I know, except for Colette-chan, were children of royalty or nobility.

The result of the hard work of top breeders that has continued for hundreds of years.

Combining only beautiful men and women with high standings, the offspring will also be beautiful men and women.

In addition, they were polished from an early age, so it was only natural that they should be pretty.

So, thats fine and all. It makes sense scientifically, statistically, and genetically.

But the little girl I met at the hospital, who happened to be hospitalized at the same hospital as Colette-chan, was a beautiful girl.

No, its stochastically, not impossible. I know that But still, it smells fishy.

Besides, this is one of the things I had previously envisioned as it may likely be.

Well, Im sure she doesnt mean to harm me or Colette-chan or anything like that.

Just gathering information, or trying to make friends and get us to be sympathetic, and then later trying to get us to help in some way by saying Actually, my father is in a difficult position or something like that

But this child was not supposed to know who we are and I dont think she will have the opportunity to find out in a reasonable way in the future

What in the world were you going to do about it?

And its normal for her to leave when her friends family comes.

As she was hospitalized here, she can come and talk to Colette-chan anytime she wants, and no one would want to interrupt the time spent with a family who have come all the way here.

There should be none.

I dont think there is

Shes not backing off~~!

Its not like shes talking to me herself she probably doesnt know how to talk to me. Im sure she has at least secretly seen my photo, but since I told her Im Colette-chans sister, Aletta, she can only talk to me on that basis so shes silently waiting for me to talk to Colette-chan.

Umumu, what should I do now

Uwa, shes still sitting there unfazed by this silence

Child actors shouldve been scared by now!!!

But this one doesnt make any hint of impatience.

Im sorry, Im going to talk about something important with my family (Colette)

As expected, she could not stay when she was told so clearly.

I mean, theres no point if me and Colette-chan cant have a conversation as long as she was there.

Well, I guess there were probably hidden cameras and listening devices, so there was no need to force herself to stay, knowing that we would be suspicious She was pretty persistent with that, though.

And after the little actress, Laurin, left the room.

Hyuhyun~!

Hidden cameras, recorders, and wiretapping devices set up in the room were all transferred away in an instant.

Well, when Colette-chan was not in the room for an inspection or something, they would probably set them up again, but Colette-chan and Sabine-chan only talk to each other knowing that, and they use the other worlds language to talk about things that were a bit more secretive.

The reason we dont talk in the other worlds language all the way was that once they have some data, they may be able to decipher it.

I would not underestimate the scientific power of mankind.

And Im thankful that we have access to many state-of-the-art hidden cameras and recording devices used by professionals.

Eventually, the time will come when it will be useful again.

And, perhaps Colette-chan knows all this while talking to that little girl.

General information about this country common information that girls around the age of 10 know. As a source of information, to get fashion, entertainment, food, and much more

Colette-chan grew up in a rural area with little information, and although she was naive, she wasnt stupid.

She knows what to say and what not, she never forgets what I teach her and she follows my instructions to the letter. No matter what.

So, in a way, Colette-chan is more trustworthy than Sabine-chan.

Oh right, I also have to close the curtain.

The technology of shining a laser beam on a window pane from a distance to read the vibrations of the pane caused by conversations in the room and eavesdrop on them was already a clich.

So, why dont the both of us relax until its time to pick up Sabine-chan.
