I urge Rosa to take me to an unused part of the mansion (Pink Trigger's Power >29)

As Rosa urged me to follow her to the sitting room for the one-on-one evaluation, I hesitated. The sitting room wasn't so far from the dining room they were using for the conference. We'd get there quick, but we might be interrupted at any time. Hoping she wouldn't find it too suspicious, I asked her to take me to some unused part of the Ushiromiya manor, where we could talk without the others barging in.

Thankfully, she seemed to see the merit in that. She led me to an unused guest room. Ah... there was even a bed in here and a bathroom! The servants kept towels in there and fresh sheets on the beds, even when they weren't being used. Kinzo, you and your family really have too much money to throw around, don't you all?

Rain was just beginning to fall outside, acting as a sort of timer for me. I knew I had to get the most out of the short remaining time period.

"My company, Anti-Rosa, is a designer brand responsible for designing and distributing unique clothes and apparel items. On top of that, we also make toys and dolls. It may surprise you to know that even my daughter's cute clothes are my handiwork. I guess you could say I'm very heavily involved at a design and distribution level. "

Mm. Yes. Mm hm. I needed the right way to steer this conversation where I wanted to go. Right now, Rosa probably thought she'd get by just by answering all of my questions in a charming, honest fashion... I needed more from her than that. No one's story here on Rokkenjima is so peaceful, after all.
