Even the battle-hardened Godfather of the Underworld, Tsunayoshi Sawada's brain went blank for a moment at this moment.

The girl opposite looked at his confused look. His expression, which would have been well restrained, was revealed because he was a cub, making him look silly and cute, which immediately aroused the girl's kindness (? ).

"That's right, how did Tsunayoshi know such things?" She shook her head, and unknowingly changed the way she addressed him from "Tsunayoshi" to "Tsunayoshi-chan". She lowered her head and compared the diapers in her hands again.

Although it was a bit awkward at the beginning, because they wanted to pick the one that was most suitable for the cute Tsunayoshi Sawada, Mouri Ran also immersed herself in it later, and even raised her head from time to time to ask Sawada Tsunayoshi a few questions.

Sawada Tsunayoshi: …

The adult with the appearance of a baby closed his eyes in pain.

In the end, it's leaving this area.

However, when Mao Lilan pushed him to the agreed place for the round, he did not see Conan Edogawa.

"Huh?" She took out her cell phone and called the other party. After a while, the boy with a depressed look came back to them.

Tsunayoshi Sawada observed the other party from inside the car.

Although Edogawa Conan used the excuse of "I was just playing with Tsuneyoshi next to him", compared to the time on the way here just now, when he was thinking about something but still paid some attention to teasing him - even though Tsuneyoshi Sawada himself didn't really want to be teased - the boy now looked like he was completely immersed in his own thoughts.

What happened just now?

As they were thinking this, suddenly, a scream broke their thoughts.

Mao Lilan then remembered that there was a cub beside her and covered her mouth, trying to swallow back the words that might bring harm to the baby.

After failing to find the answer, he sighed and gave a brief explanation.

"He's my sister's friend, a brother named Kudo Shinichi... He's just like Conan, he loves reasoning."

After she finished explaining and looked at the cub's sparkling eyes, she couldn't help but tap her head.

A child this young... probably doesn't even know what "reasoning" is.

——That being said.

Sawada Tsuneyoshi turned his head and looked at the boy who had solved the problem and returned to them, his eyes fixed on the bow tie around his neck.

Even though he is a kid now, he is still an adult, so what is this way of hiding behind other people and reasoning? Is it a new trend now?

The Godfather, who was puzzled by this, looked at the boy's watch - it was from here that something like an anesthetic needle was shot, causing the police officer named "Takagi" to fall into a deep sleep.

Then look at the red bow tie. There is probably a voice changer here, which allows Conan Edogawa to pretend to be Officer Takagi and conduct reasoning.

Is this the strength of today's human cubs?

Tsunayoshi Sawada recalled that at the same age, their boy Rambo was still thinking about how to get more desserts from him every day - because his younger brother was already about to get cavities despite his young age, Tsunayoshi Sawada restricted his dessert intake for a long time - and at the same age, Conan Edogawa was already able to find clues and solve cases on his own.

Is this what kids are like nowadays? It's scary.

Thinking of this, Sawada Tsunayoshi withdrew his gaze with a lingering fear.

Before that, he noticed that Conan Edogawa's gaze was fixed on a certain place, so he paused and looked over there.

The crowd had dispersed, and among the police officers who were leaving, a young man with half-long black hair suddenly appeared.

The young man was wearing casual clothes, pushing a cart with some vegetables, meat and a bottle of detergent - Sawada Tsunayoshi noticed that this brand was exactly the same as the one that Edogawa Conan had just brought back - and was talking to Officer Takagi with a smile. His demeanor was in no way in conflict with the other police officers who were surrounding him, as if he was just one of them.

But he is indeed one of them.

Just by taking a quick glance, Sawada Tsunayoshi recognized the other person's identity.

In this world, when he was undercover in the organization codenamed after wine, one of his juniors became his contact.

Kenji Hagiwara.

It was this young man who was chatting and laughing with the policemen.

Sawada Tsunayoshi withdrew his gaze and looked sideways at the boy who was staring at Hagiwara Kenji with a look of deep hatred, and thought to himself.

Kenji Hagiwara on the opposite side also noticed Conan Edogawa's gaze. When he looked over, the boy quickly put away his nervous expression and smiled at him.

"Hey, do Mr. Hagiwara and Conan know each other?"

Takagi Shigeru noticed the exchange between the two and asked.

Watching the black-haired boy being taken away by the adults beside him, Kenji Hagiwara also noticed that their stroller was one that could accommodate puppies, so there were probably three people traveling together. He touched his chin thoughtfully.

Takagi Wataru: "Mr. Hagiwara?"

"No," Hagiwara Kenji said thoughtfully, "I just helped that kid get something off the shelf."

"I see, so that's how it is. As expected of you, Mr. Hagiwara!"

Takagi Shigeru said happily, watching the young man smile at him and leave.

Speaking of this senior Hagiwara, Takagi Wataru had heard many rumors about him before he entered the Metropolitan Police Department.

He is a famous "star" in the Metropolitan Police Department, partly because of his rapid promotion speed, and partly because he has captured the hearts of many female colleagues.

The latter can be explained by his unique face and personality. It is said that he was already a person who attracted many admirers when he was in school. As for the former... Takagi Shigeru heard from his senior not long ago that it was because this senior Hagiwara had made many contributions in the dark.

Because those experiences cannot be put on the surface, it seems that the progress is so rapid. In fact, the promotion and rewards received by the other party are directly proportional to the contributions he has made.

"But then again," Takagi Wataru stroked his chin and said to Sato Miwako, who was gossiping with him, "People like Hagiwara-senpai might be quite suitable for being a cough."

As he spoke, the image of him walking around in the dark night wearing a tight black leather jacket and throwing dangerous red roses to his prey came to his mind.

Takagi Shizuo pinched his chin and fantasized: "Maybe it will be like the recently popular comic book called "This Thing", where I accidentally become the boss."

In my mind, Senior Hagiwara bent down to smell the rose, handed it to the lady in the dark opposite him, and spoke with the kind of emphasis that can only be found in old TV dramas.

【“I’m not a good man, baby.”】

It's surprisingly suitable... Mr. Hagiwara.

Kenji Hagiwara sneezed while walking on his way home.

He rubbed his nose, wondering if it was the little detective who had just come over to watch who was talking about him.

Thinking of the other person's constricted pupils and the barely calm expression when he saw him, Kenji Hagiwara couldn't help but laugh.

He was actually present when Kurosawa Jin knocked Kudo Shinichi unconscious, but the young detective who had already lost consciousness at the time did not notice Hagiwara Kenji who came over to watch the show after he fainted.

It just so happened that Shirley had developed a drug that was lacking experimental samples. After friendly communication between the boss and the little detective's parents, who also expressed the hope to curb the teenager's impulsive and thoughtless nature of rushing into anything he saw, the two parties hit it off and fed the newly developed drug to the child.

"Now I probably look like a scary devil in that child's eyes."

Playing a prank on the other party was not enough. On the way home, Kenji Hagiwara called a classmate who also knew about the incident, and he didn't stop smiling at all.

"Yes, that's for sure." His colleague on the other side of the phone also laughed, "So, Mr. Devil, have you thought of a code name for yourself? Members of evil criminal organizations all have code names."

Kenji Hagiwara was stunned for a moment and said "eh".

"Really? But I'm not really a member of the organization... well, at most I'm just a member with connections?"

"Is that so? Then you are a very bad devil."

"Sorry, sorry. This is my first time as a devil. Zero, if you don't mind, let me use your code name." Hagiwara Kenji said in a very casual tone, "Bourbon - well, it still sounds pretty cool."

The colleague opposite him immediately became dissatisfied.

Kenji Hagiwara was still smiling until he hung up the phone. Zero's condition has improved a lot recently, which makes people feel a little relieved.

He put his hands in his pockets and thought that even if he stole the organization's code name, he wouldn't use it on Furuya Rei's head.

Although the two of them were from the same period, they didn't have much in common in this mission at the winery. If we were to borrow code names based on how much they had in common, that person's code name would be more suitable.

Thinking of that person, he paused and his eyes softened.

Johnny was given the name… I wonder what his seniors’ expressions would be if they knew that he used this name to tease children.

…

Jigokudera Hayato responded to the disgusting document with a sly expression.

The reconstruction process of Vongola was progressing slowly. Although each little thing might not seem like much, when he summarized it all, it became a small mountain of documents.

It took ten years for Hayato Jigokudera to successfully grow into a confidant of the boss and there was no major problem. Although he already knew the address of the tenth generation - sorry, tenth generation, it was all because Johnny Two's hands were itchy and he determined your location in the time it took to make a phone call - but because he wanted both himself and the Vongola to be in the best condition to welcome the tenth generation, the young man, who was already less than a tenth generation, suppressed the urge to rush to that person right away and tried his best to clean up the mountain of things to be dealt with... At least, at least let the Japanese branch appear in front of the tenth generation in the best condition!

With this thought in mind, the Vongola Storm Guardian threw himself into the huge task from the moment he woke up, and only managed to sort it out when the moon was high in the sky.

The young man with short silver hair pushed his chair away, stood up, looked out the window and pressed his brows.

He hesitated for a moment, looking around seemingly calmly but actually suspiciously. Seeing that there was no one around, he calmly took out his cell phone and connected the earphone cord.

The atmosphere around the young man who had been as cold as ice just now suddenly became much warmer, and even the contours of his face softened.

[“It’s me.”]

[“Feeling good?”]

【“Call me brother, Rambo.”】

My restless mood gradually calmed down.

After the few sentences edited from the phone call were repeated twenty-seven times, the Guardian of Storm, who had temporarily absorbed the tenth generation through the air, finally opened his eyes again.

It's not like he didn't notice that the Judaime's voice had changed.

Even though it was affected by the cell phone's radio waves, the sound coming from the other end of the phone was too childish.

And since it is known that the Rainbow Son, Ozora, chose to sacrifice himself in order to resurrect all the other Rainbow Sons, a certain speculation is already brewing.

He tried hard to suppress his nervousness and tried to convince himself to give the tenth generation some time to adapt - apart from him, Gokudera Hayato believed that everyone else thought so too.

The information about Beika Town had already been placed on his desk, and he had sent subordinates there to maintain law and order, so the safety of the Judaime, who was now unknown, could be guaranteed.

It will take some time to adjust to the sudden appearance... Tomorrow morning, after he has dealt with all this stuff, he will definitely go to the Judaime's side.

Thinking of this, he exhaled, his green eyes that seemed to be covered with frost flickered slightly, and finally fell silent.

On the other side, in Beika Town, Dr. Agasa placed two cups of milk on the tea table and looked at the black-haired young man sitting on the sofa.

He sat down opposite him, laughing very kindly.

"Are you the guardian of Tsangji's child?" he asked.

The black-haired young man withdrew his gaze from his surroundings, and a hint of doubt suddenly appeared on his cheerful and clean face.

"Guardian?" He paused and stroked his chin. "Well... sort of."

Dr. Agasa looked at the other party and couldn't help feeling confused.

Just now when he was cleaning the kitchen, someone rang the doorbell.

He originally thought that it was Mao Lilan and her group who had returned, but when he opened the door, he saw the young man in front of him carrying something on his back.

The other party didn't seem surprised to see him. He blinked and asked if "Sawada Tsunayoshi" was there.

Dr. Agasa was originally preparing to pack up his things and take his children to the police station to file a case, but he didn't expect to see a guy who seemed to know the other party before he even left the house. So he wiped his hands and invited the guy into the house first.

Now looking at the other party's reaction, he began to wonder if this young man was a bad person.

"Haha, how could that be? Do I look like a bad guy?"

The other party laughed out loud and seemed very friendly. Dr. Agasa then realized that he had unknowingly said what he was thinking.

He waved his hands awkwardly and said no, then explained the reason hesitantly.

As expected, the man, who seemed to be very generous, accepted his words very readily.

"My relationship with Tsuna is not that of a guardian," said Yamamoto Takeshi. "He and I are partners."

Generally speaking, there will be no problem after this explanation.

However, after hearing these words, the white-haired old man not only did not calm down, but instead showed a strange expression.

Yamamoto Takeshi's body leaned forward slightly, looking a little nervous.

"What's wrong? Is he in bad condition?"

Dr. Agasa finally recovered from the shock of an adult saying that he and a cub were "partners" and waved his hands when he heard it.

"No, it's just..."

Before he could finish his words, the doorbell rang again.

"It looks like they're back." Dr. Agasa said and went to open the door.

Yamamoto Takeshi followed behind him, hiding his nervousness by straightening his sleeves.

If nothing unexpected happened, the person standing outside the door was Gang.

This conjecture caused his breathing to stagnate for a moment, and although it quickly returned to normal the next moment, it could not cover up the moment of suffocation.

Yamamoto Takeshi was suddenly a little afraid to open the door.

The last time he opened the door like this, he was greeted by the dead body of the young man whom he regarded as his lifelong friend. The brown-haired young man had his eyes closed, and he seemed to have died in a deep sleep.

And this time?

He swallowed a little nervously, his Adam's apple rolling, and his eyes seemed like rays that could pierce through the heavy door.

However, Dr. Agasa, who was standing in front of him, seemed unaware of his nervousness and urgency, and opened the door slowly. Yamamoto Takeshi even heard the sound of a clock when the old man opened the door, ticking, like blood dripping onto the ground along the man's body.

Then the door burst open.

Yamamoto Takeshi showed a look of surprise.

"A-Tsuna?"

"…Awu?"

The two pairs of eyes, one black and one brown, looked at each other. After a moment, Yamamoto Takeshi quickly passed by Dr. Agasa and lifted Sawada Tsunayoshi high up.

The Vongola swordsman laughed heartily.

"Hahahaha is it my illusion? Tsuna, you seem to have become smaller, haha."

His eyes fell on Mouri Ran and Edogawa Conan, who seemed a little dazed because of this action. After a sharp moment, he returned to calmness and was surprised to see what Mouri Ran was holding in her hand.

"Hey, did you buy this diaper?" The black-haired young man blinked and looked inside the door. "As expected of you, Gang, you even knew that the baby came with me this time... Well, I used to think that diapers for babies were all specially made."

Sawada Tsunayoshi, who accepted his fate the moment he laughed, raised his head abruptly.

The warm yellow light cast a warm hue on his vision. At the end of the light, a baby about the same size as himself was sitting on the sofa. When he caught his gaze, the baby touched his temples.

"Ciaos, Gang." His tutor greeted him obediently, just like every other time, but it made people want to cry.

But before he could shed tears, he saw the other party jump over in three or two steps and stand in the hands of the very knowledgeable Professor Agasa.

"Do you need me to teach you how to dress, Tsunayoshi?" He smiled sweetly and cutely, but what he said was extremely vile to Tsunayoshi Sawada.

Seeing the stupid student's body shrinking and his brain shrinking as well, revealing a dull look, the tutor couldn't help but remind him.

"Diapers." He asked repeatedly, "Do you need me to teach you how to wear this thing... Well, you are such a troublesome disciple. You still need a teacher to teach you at this age. You are indeed a useless person."

Under his verbal attack, Sawada Tsunayoshi, who had just been immersed in a sentimental atmosphere, buried himself in Yamamoto Takeshi's arms with a painful look on his face.

Stop thinking about Master... Really stop thinking about him!!
