>>5195831>“Let’s just reply to both, see what happens, but going forward I’d say we lean towards the British Museum since they’re not treating us like children.”“Well, technically, we are children,” Erwin points out. A moment later she quails under the look everyone else is giving her. “What!? We are technically!”
“We’re also historians,” Caesar points out. “And only one of the museums is currently treating us as such.”
“So we’re agreed then?” You ask. “We’ll keep our options open for now?”
“And we won’t be handing anything over yet,” Oryou confirms with a nod.
“Not without an agreement first,” Caesar nods. “So, we’re all in agreement, right?”
There’s a round of yesses, from the rest of the history buffs confirming that. With that out of the way, replies are drafted to both, including casually letting Yūshūkan know more than one museum is interested.
With that done, you turn to the elephant in the room, or more accurately, the bars of gold.
>“Let’s get this stuff in a vault of some kind.”“Yeah, let’s,” Caesar nods. “I’m almost a hundred percent sure that the bank should be open right now, so let’s deal with these.”
The bars are brought downstairs, and several backpacks emptied to put them in. You end up with more individually than anyone else in yours, and you’re a little concerned for the bag, but Oryou assures you it’s old so no will mind if it breaks.
Between the five of you, you walk into town and head to the bank. It’s not a particularly big building – maybe a couple storeys, and it’s not like there’s massive amounts of cash floating around on Ooarai. It does however have a vault, and Caesar already has a drawer. You’re just about able to squeeze everything and shut it with a bit of force.
With that done, you’re ready to go do ‘something’ with Yuzu, the question though, is what.
