Our family is a little strange

All 3 siblings graduated from Todai

My brother is a genius surgeon

My sister is a super skilled lawyer

I am an elite police officer

Our father is the headmaster of a privileged private middle school

Our mother passed away a long time ago

In the past 20 years, Koiwai worked as our butler

and recently, Kusunoki-kun joined as an apprentice

- The dog escaped...! - This is not a joke!

Big brother lost the hospital director's beloved pet dog

I'm going to be fired...

What if we find a similar looking dog!

That's it! This method will work!

- Isn't this the real John? - It's John's brother.

My sister is starting to see the apprentice butler Kusunoki

as a more important asset than me

Feeling that it will be problematic if I let this goes on,

I broke into the director's home and brought Fake John back secretly,

Once again choosing to break the law

You take care!

However, my biggest crime was not stealing or breaking in

It was leaving John, who is like my family, there without a care!

Ouch!

Yes! Let's go, let's go!

Miraculously, the real John returns. So the issue was resolved

As for the family, they agreed to keep John as a pet

It seemed like everything worked out well

Yes. I understand

Talk to you later

The police saved Koiwai

It looks like he tried to commit suicide.

Why would Koiwai do such thing?

- Do you have any idea why? - None at all.

- Yesterday morning, it was just like usual... - I think I know why!

Koiwai is addicted to the maid cafe

No way! Koiwai, of all people, wouldn't do such a thing...!

No. You are wrong. Last night, I saw it with my own eyes

Please take care, Master!

It's not what you think...!

Because I saw him as he was coming out of that shop

he immediately ran away from me

But whatever Koiwai does on his day off...

that is his freedom, isn't it?

- So he just went to the maid cafe... - What are you saying "he just went to"!

Our butler visiting a maid cafe, ...if such a thing leaks out

the weekly magazines may decide to write it comically

Like "The butler is obsessed with maids" This will become a headline story

- But... - Listen, Shusaku, I am going to say it one more time.

It is "The butler is obsessed with maids"

Big brother, why? Why do you have to say that again?

Buy! I will totally buy it!

Surely, Koiwai knew he was seen by Big Brother and knew that he was going to be fired.

That's why he was very pessimistic about life

and did something silly like trying to commit suicide!

Eh... no way

You are not thinking about letting Koiwai go, right?

He has seriously breached the terms of his contract by doing something that harmed to the Kitazawa's reputation.

There are no other choice but to fire him

No, wait a minute!

To Koiwai, who has devoted the last 20 years of his life to this job, this is too much!

Then let's not fire him, but get him to voluntarily resign instead

If we give him a bit more severance pay, he shouldn't have too much to say about it

Big brother...!

For someone who doesn't have any family and had been working hard until these days,

he shouldn't have to worry about money issues for a while

Matsuya has also been unexpectedly useful

so, isn't this a good time for us to let him go?

I'm sorry to say, but there is no longer a place for him in my household!

I'm going to believe in Koiwai

Until we hear him explain in his own words, please don't make a decision yet

I really want to apologize

for causing so much trouble...

Hey, Koiwai

Did you really try to kill yourself?

No, of course not

I was going somewhere to watch the ocean and accidentally ended up at a popular suicide spot

- Really? - Yes.

So, I heard from Big Brother that you went to a maid cafe. It is not true, right?

No, it is true

Eh... why?

I am really sorry!

This thing here... I guess there is no need to give you this.

Letter of Resignation

Letter of

Resignation

Don't do this! I won't accept it

I don't want to trouble you any further!

- Our family absolutely needs Koiwai! - Young master, even if

- I am not there, it will be OK! - It won't be OK!

Whatever my family may say, I need you by my side!

Well, I am tired!

I have been looking after you all this time

well, I am tired of it!

Koiwai?

To tell you the truth... before this happened,

I had been thinking about resigning.

It is a good opportunity now.

Even though you came all this way to see me ...

I am very sorry!

Plato*, I'm sorry

Note:*The hamster is actually called Platon, which is the ancient Greek version of Plato

I wasn't able to bring Koiwai back home with me

Plato?

Plato?!

Plato! Plato!

Plato?

No way...

Plato?

Plato, where are you?

Plato!

Plato!

Koiwai, the one who can share my sorrows will help me look together until we find him

When I am in trouble, he will always appear

Koiwai, who will always envelops me with warmth and kindness,

he's no longer in this house

Mom, how have you been?

Koiwai, who have always been my best friend, is gone

Even my beloved Plato has also gone missing

Mom, I also want to go to your side really soon

This winter is so cold, I think I am going to freeze to death soon

Cover Up Winter

There's no Problem with our Family

Good morning! Breakfast is ready!

It's cold...

Later, I will bring out the after-breakfast fruits

Excuse me

What did Koiwai say?

Yes?

Yesterday, didn't you go to see him?

- When I got there, he already prepared this - I see.

That will save us some time

How about the maid cafe? He didn't say

he didn't go or something like that?

It was just like what Big Brother said.

See, it is just like I said.

The normally serious Koiwai go crazy like that? What kind of shop can make

- it's called "The Annex of the Milk Kingdom" - There is an annex in this kingdom?

Yes.

I think it is a lifelong dream of Koiwai's.

Dream?

For at least once in his life, he probably wants to hear someone say, "Welcome home, master."

And then, this turned out to be more comforting than he expected

As for Koiwai...

I feel a little disappointed

About the maid cafe, of course

But he also didn't seem to have any regrets about leaving his job with us

- Aah... - Thank you very much for your help all along!

Hey, did you hear anything about Koiwai?

I heard from Chiaki-san that he is taking leave because he has some health issues.

So... only that?

And Koiwai-san's tasks, I should also do it properly

I see... that's why you are so enthusiastic about work this morning

I wasn't unusually enthusiastic. There is no such thing!

If Koiwai-san doesn't come back soon...

not saying I can't do it, but it is just me here...

- You really think that? - Of course!

Hmmm

Hey, do you know where Plato went?

- Shusaku-san's pet hamster-chan? - Yes

I have not seen him since yesterday

That is a serious matter!

I will use my powers, however little that may be to look for him!

Yes.

It's the cleaners!

Why is he so early this morning...?

- Ah, hear me out! - What happened?

Just now, I was making a delivery to Hamanoya-san's house,

she told me that one of our young staff already came by before me

So, what's the problem with that?

Only my wife and I work at our dry cleaning shop

so I said that there's no way something like that happened, but she said

she didn't get it wrong, the person was wearing our uniform!

Young? How old is he supposed to be?

She said he looked like a high school student in his teens

High school student?!

A few days ago, I went to a new barber, but

he asked me "what kind of club activities are you participating in?"

And there were many times when I went drinking, I was asked to show my identification to prove my age

- Aaaah! - What's going on?

Just now, John was there!

No, but it's not possible

He was at Hamanoya-san's yard earlier

It's true that you just saw John

It's just a different John from the one you thought

They are just brothers who are both named John

It's John's younger brother, John!

Last time I was here, there was no dog, right?

We got him recently

Eh? Where is Koiwai-san today?

He is taking a leave of absense because of health issues

He's not well?

Koiwai, the iron man who is well known for not getting sick?

I am troubled too, you know

Ah, ever since you have come to this house, why are all these strange things happening?
