Reincarnated Into The World Of A Rape Erotic Game ~ Since The Game World Has Become Reality... I Want To Save The Heroines~ - Chapter 9: Kagurazaka Yuuka ②

“Mama! Look, look! There are coffee cups~♪”

“Hehe… They’re tea cups, you know?”

“Over there are horsies ♪. Clip-clop clip-clop ♪.”

“The young lady seems so happy, which is wonderful, madam.”

“Yes. I’m glad I brought her here. It’s unfortunate that my husband isn’t here though. He would have wanted to see Yuuka having such a good time…”

“Madam… please leave capturing footage for the master to me! I’ve been taking photos carefully so as not to miss any good moments, and I’m recording video too!”

“Hehe… I’m counting on you, okay?”

“Yes.”

“B-But really, you’re so skilled, aren’t you? Holding a camera in your right hand and a video camera in your left. How can you take such beautiful photos and footage in that state?”

“It’s only natural as a maid. You could say it’s a maid’s refinement.”

“I-I see…”

“Hey! Mama! Hurry, hurry! Quick, over here, over here! Come over here ♪.”

“Ah… yes, yes. Yuuka? If you rush around like that, you’ll fall down, you know?”

“Too bad for you~! Yuuka isn’t that clumsy~♪”

I had come to the amusement park with my mother. Right after entering through the entrance gate, there was a shop selling stuffed animals and souvenirs on the right side… From that spot, you could see the tea cup ride and the merry-go-round spinning and moving… When I think back on it, it brings back such nostalgic memories…

“Mama~! I want to ride that next! I want to ride that~!”

“…A r-roller coaster might still be too early for Yuuka, don’t you think?”

“…It appears there are height restrictions. The young lady will only be able to ride once she grows a bit taller.”

“Ehhhh~!? Is that so!? Then, then Yuuka has to grow big quickly! Grow bigger~”

“You can’t grow that quickly, can you? It’s unfortunate this time, but we’ll try this ride another time, okay? Come on, let’s go over there instead?”

As we played around the park, what came into view was the roller coaster. There were height restrictions, and at that time I wasn’t tall enough… so I couldn’t ride it…

From a distance, I remembered watching the people riding it thinking how envious I was…

Hmm? Come to think of it, now I could ride it with Toyokazu-kun… But after what had happened… he might not like amusement parks anymore… He’d even gotten injured… But… maybe I should try inviting Toyokazu-kun anyway, and we could replace those bad memories with good ones…?

But still──

Ahem… Anyway, that’s how we ended up riding a different attraction instead: a train. It was an attraction train ride, the type that only small children could go to, so I got on by myself, and from that train I excitedly waved at my mother. My mother also smiled and waved back at me.

I think she took photos too… but I’d never seen them…

“Mama~♪”

“Yuuka! Over here! Look this way and give me a big smile and peace sign!”

“Peace~!”

Maybe my mother was hiding the photos so I wouldn’t remember what had happened after this? Thanks to Toyokazu-kun, I didn’t mind it anymore… but maybe my mother didn’t want to remember… If I were in my mother’s position, I might do the same thing.

Yes… it was right after this…

“I’m going to go powder my nose for a bit. Do you want to come with me, Yuuka? You should probably go to the toilet now while you have the chance, don’t you think?”

“I’m fine! I don’t need to go right now!”

“Madam! Then I will take responsibility and watch over the young lady… please take your time.”

“…Then I’ll leave it to you, okay? I’ll be right back, so please take care of her.”

“Have a safe trip! I’ll wait here, okay?”

“Okay.”

As I watched my mother’s retreating figure heading toward the restroom──

“Now, young lady! Please look over there!”

“Hmm? What, what!?”

“It’s Ham-Ham Taro, this amusement park’s most popular mascot character♪”

“Wowww~~~♡ So cute~~~♡♡♡”

“Look! There are also Neko-taro and Ushi-taro ♪. Since we have this chance, why don’t we go meet Ham-Ham Taro?”

“Eh…? But… my mother isn’t back yet…”

“It’s alright, young lady. You have me with you, and the restroom where madam went isn’t very far from Ham-Ham Taro, right? It’s close enough to reach by running.”

“…Y-yeah.”

“It seems like you can get a Ham-Ham Taro stuffed animal directly from Taro himself right now? If you get one, you might be able to show it off to your friends! Ah… look! Young lady! Now’s your chance! You mustn’t let chances slip away!”

“Really!? Can I really get one!? And show it off too!? Then let’s go! Yuuka will go right away!”

“Understood! Let’s hold hands so you don’t get lost, okay? There are lots of people around!”

“Yeah, I understand. Here, let’s hold hands~”

We headed toward Ham-Ham Taro and the others. They were right in the middle of a parade. To watch it and to participate in it, people were gathering and crowding around everywhere.

“…Ugh… I can’t see?”

“You’re right… we can’t see from here. Well then… there’s a spot over there with a good view, so shall we go over there?”

“But…”

When I turned back toward the restroom, my mother was just coming out. My mother seemed to be looking around. She appeared to be talking to the security guards, so I thought she was looking for me. So I tried to call out loudly…

“Ma─”

I was trying to tell my mother “I’m over here~!” to let her know where I was, but suddenly… the hand I was holding was pulled forcefully─

As if being pulled by gravity, I ended up leaning my body weight against the maid.

“─Mmph!?”

The maid who had pulled me close held me tightly while simultaneously covering my mouth so I couldn’t speak, then quickly blended into the crowd. My mother’s figure instantly disappeared from view.

The first thing I thought was probably “…Why?” Because the distance between my mother and me kept growing…

The next thing I thought was “…Help me!!” …I think… Because I finally understood that the lady was trying to take me somewhere. I flailed my legs trying to resist her, but it had no effect.

It was really strange, wasn’t it? With so many people around… no one had noticed me…

And didn’t you think it was abnormal? Even if it was during a parade, someone should have noticed this abnormal scene, right? Covering a small child’s mouth, carrying her while rushing through the crowd in the opposite direction from the parade? Don’t you think at least one person would have called out or tried to stop us?

But still…

As if it were predetermined… as if our existence had vanished and become invisible… no one noticed me being taken away, and there was no one to help me.

I’m scared… I’m so scared… What’s going to happen to me…? No! H-help me…? Someone, anyone, please help me! That man over there! That lady I don’t know!! Look this way! Look at me!

…Mama! …Papa! …Someone…

Some…one…

──Help meee!!!

Even though I’d wished so hard… even though I’d pleaded… no one would help me… no one had noticed little Yuuka…

“Yuuukaaaa!!”

Except for the owner of that voice──
