I continue to love this series, but this chapter was a little bit hard to follow. It was clearer on a reread and I think most of the issue is was due to the multiple time skips and a few sections that are deliberately ambiguous, but there were also a couple of sections where it felt like the speech bubbles weren't in the proper order or there was a typo.

With that said, starting on Pg. 25 things go back to being confusing. Specifically, "And this isn't our primary goal," "but grab the merchandise the boss wants." "... what about keeping little brother-kun safe?" As is, the first two parts feel a bit disjoint and disconnected from the preceding dialogue. That could just be down to an strenuous 'And' at the start, making it sound like there's something missing, but the absence of a clear main objective is also part of the problem, since both the cops and the retrieval could conceivably be secondary objectives and the 'and' makes things ambiguous. The other issue is that they talk about "the merchandise the boss wants" and "little brother-kun" as if they're separate things, but I thought "little brother-kun" was the merchandise that Iruma wanted and he certainly seems to be the center piece of the auction.


The top two panels of Pg. 7 feel like they should be read left to right. If nothing else, they come off as more jumbled and disconnected when going right to left.
On Pg. 24 the bids go from 300 Million to 360 Million to 80 Million. There's probably a 3 missing from that last one.
