Chapter 143 Recognition

Fitzgerald was very efficient. Of course, it might also be because he wanted to see his daughter as soon as possible. After signing the contract, he immediately left Mori Owl and left.

Then I went directly to Akutagawa's house.

At that time, Akutagawa and his sister had not yet returned from the Armed Detective Agency.

Before coming here, Fitzgerald had been thinking about what the relationship between his daughter and these people was. When he was investigating the tiger with special abilities, he also checked where he was. He saw that it was a small pirate group born in Japan that he had never heard of. He didn't even want to continue reading.

Anyway, this is an organization that no one has ever heard of from a small country town, and they make a living as pirates, so we can just send someone to deal with them.

Now he found that his daughter seemed to be among this group of people. He wondered why his daughter was mixed up with a group of pirates from the countryside. Was she forced? No, he heard that his daughter had lost her memory, maybe she was deceived.

Thinking of this, he walked faster to Akutagawa's residence and prepared to break in by force.

At this moment, someone suddenly patted his shoulder from behind and asked in a friendly manner, "Are you looking for someone?"

Before Fitzgerald could react, the man had already passed him and started ringing the doorbell, shouting, "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"

"Here he comes!" A voice came from inside, and Nakajima Atsushi hurried out of the house and ran to the gate to open the door for him. "Why is Mr. Ace here?"

"I was walking around and happened to come here, so I came over to take a look." Ace said.

"Oh!" As the door opened, Nakajima Atsushi noticed that there was another person behind Ace who seemed to be coming in as well. He asked in confusion, "Who is this gentleman?"

"I don't know. You must be here to look for someone. When I arrived, I saw him standing outside the door. He looked like he wanted to go in." Ace asked casually, "Are you here to look for someone?"

Nakajima Atsushi joined late, and he didn't know if the other seniors had any relatives or friends he hadn't met. However, he saw Ace leading the way inside after the door opened, and talking to another strange blond man as he walked, and the blond man followed in. The scene looked very harmonious, so he thought there was no problem, so he closed the door and followed in behind.

Fitzgerald, who had originally planned to force his way in but ended up following in without knowing it, didn't know whether it was a success or not. Although it was different from his plan, he did get in.

But he changed his mind and thought it was a good thing. If he could get in without any conflict, he could also avoid the other party taking his daughter hostage.

So he followed Ace's footsteps and answered casually: "I am indeed here to look for someone."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard a clear voice coming from the door of the room inside: "A Dun, who is it?"

He looked up and saw a girl with blonde hair tied in a ponytail sticking her head out from the door. She probably saw what was happening here and opened the door completely in surprise, "It's Mr. Ace!"

A boy's voice immediately came out from inside the room: "Look! I told you it couldn't be Akutagawa and the others, right? They all have keys, how could they ring the doorbell!"

As they walked in, a smaller voice inside was heard saying, "What if? What if they didn't bring the key?"

Although the Japanese are used to hiding spare keys somewhere at the door, people who come from the black market naturally don't have this habit. If you do this, someone might find your key one day and steal your belongings or even arrest you and sell you off.

Soon, all the young men inside crowded to the door. It was obvious that Ace was very popular among them.

Fitzgerald had just recovered from the impact of his daughter's face when he saw a group of boys and girls staring at him again. "Mr. Ace, is he your friend?"

"I just met him at the door. He said he was looking for someone."

Then everyone looked at Fitzgerald again, trying to figure out who this old man was looking for.

Including the target Fei Niao himself.

Fitzgerald felt sad and at a loss for a moment. His daughter really didn't remember him, but he could see that she was living well here.

She lived very comfortably among these people, completely integrating herself into their group. If these pirate kids had been mean to her, she would not have been able to get along so well with them.

but--

With a frown on his face, he quickly scanned the large mansion which was built by renovating three houses together, and then he began to feel dissatisfied again.

Too bad.

The living conditions here are too bad!

Since he became rich, his daughter has never lived in such a bad house!

But when he saw a group of little ghosts looking at his daughter curiously, his heart softened again. He suppressed his dissatisfaction and tried to be calm and kind and said: "I am here to find my daughter."

His features were so prominent that everyone immediately found him. After all, there were only two Westerners in their pirate group, and only one female, who also happened to have blonde hair.

"You are Fei Niao's father."

"Come on, come on, come in and sit down!"

Mr. Fitzgerald was cordially welcomed into the house, and as he passed through the hallway he saw Lucy, who had been tied back to the living room for easier supervision.

Lucy stared with wide eyes as her leader was welcomed into the house by their enemies with a smile on their faces, and then she looked at her leader with disdain as he glanced at her and walked past her as if nothing had happened, pretending not to know her.

Lucy：???

Lucy didn't understand, Lucy was shocked!

What the hell!? Why is her leader being welcomed in as a distinguished guest?? Even if the terms have been agreed upon, they shouldn't be welcomed so sincerely, right? We are enemies!!

Lucy was about to say something when Fitzgerald gave her a warning look, so she shut up again.

Mr. Fitzgerald was invited by his father to sit in the hall. Perhaps noticing that his eyes had lingered on Lucy, a little girl immediately explained to him, "Well, she was the one who attacked us before, and we just caught her. Don't misunderstand."

Perhaps she was worried about leaving a bad impression on her friend's father, so the little girl was quite nervous when she said this.

"Sir, you must be Mr. Fitzgerald, the father of Bird, right?"

Fitzgerald heard a young man with slightly curly brown hair say.

Fitzgerald saw the blonde girl behind him and nodded, "Yes, my daughter fell into the sea in a plane crash two years ago. Her body has never been found and there is no news. I thought she..."

"Uh, well, two years ago, well, we just happened to catch her." Zuo Jing interrupted a little embarrassedly.

Hisami continued, "You may not know yet, but Asuka has lost her memory. We have been helping to find her parents, and we only got the news in the past few days. I didn't expect you to come to Yokohama in person."

Lucy, who was eavesdropping secretly, finally understood.

My goodness, the organization that the leader sent people to attack actually has his daughter in it! The leader himself doesn't know yet!

Nakajima Atsushi raised his hand silently: "Well, the captain and his men probably don't know that Mr. Fitzgerald is coming, right? How about we give them a call to let them know?"

"That's right!" Reina said while making a phone call. "Speaking of which, Yokohama is pretty dangerous recently. You can take Asuka to the United States to see if you can stimulate her memory. We can go there together after we finish dealing with things here."

Fitzgerald: "..."

He had some suspicion that the danger the other party was talking about was referring to himself.

"Strange, out of service area." Lingnai hung up the phone and sent a message to the other party, "I sent a message, they should see the message and reply soon."

So the others turned their attention back to Fitzgerald. As long as the message got to the right place, that was enough.

"By the way, what was Fei Niao's original name?"

"Scotty." Fitzgerald looked at the blonde girl who was protected by her companions and smiled gently. "I'm glad to see you're still alive."

Fei Niao has been using the name given to him by his companions for two years. When he suddenly heard the name he used before he lost his memory, he still felt a little strange and uncomfortable.

She was pushed to the front by her companions and said uncomfortably: "Are you... my father? Sorry, I can't remember..."

"Don't worry, we can recall it slowly. But your mother has always thought you were dead, and her mental state is very bad. If possible, I still hope you can go back to see her as soon as possible."

Reina pushed her gently from behind and said, "How about this, do you want to take your father to the room to talk?"

"……good."

After the two of them left the hall and went to Fei Niao's room, Lucy, who had been tense, finally breathed a sigh of relief. The others, on the other hand, had no pressure at all, but were immersed in the joy of finally finding their companion's relatives and being able to better treat her amnesia.

Until Akutagawa Ryunosuke called, his voice was very tense: [Reina, is Mr. Fitzgerald with you now? ]

Reina was still a little confused. "Ah? Mr. Fitzgerald? He and Asuka are in the room."

[That's the leader of the Guild. Be careful and keep him until I come back.]

After that, he hung up the phone.

Reina was stunned for a moment, the phone still to her ear. After a long while, she came back to her senses and looked at her companions, "Well, I have some important news..."

Everyone looked over curiously.

"Akutagawa said that Asuka's father was the leader of the Guild that had put Atsushi on the bounty list and attacked our Guild..."

Suddenly, the whole hall was silent.

Then Lucy, who was tied in the corner of the hall, was the first to speak: "Huh, I'm dying of suffocation. It's really surprising that you have our leader's daughter here."

She didn't say this on her own initiative; they knew it first!

Everyone in the room: “…”

Ace looked around, confused. "Why do you all look like that? Shouldn't you have already told Ryunosuke about this?"

“…”

Oh, they did know that Fei Niao's parents' surname was Fitzgerald, but no one told them that the leader of the Guild was also this Fitzgerald?
