Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at the white-haired bird-man, oh no, white-haired Shiran, who was sitting cross-legged in front of him with a slightly apologetic look on his face.
The other person sat next to Yuni, who was much smaller than her, with her face covered. The whimpering sounds she made from time to time made Sawada Tsunayoshi clench his fists again and again. He almost broke through his patience and kissed the other person on the face.
But before he could move, the guy opposite him suddenly jumped behind the girl who was younger than him.
"Yuni, Yuni, Yuni, look at him!!" The white-haired guy jumped three meters high (in the physical sense) and hid behind Yuni accurately when he fell. The eldest brother poked his head out with a wronged look and sobbed exaggeratedly.
"I knew it. Tsunayoshi-kun must hate me to death." He sobbed and wiped his tears. He took out a light blue handkerchief from somewhere. You could see small orange and yellow flowers in the details - it was Yuni's handkerchief.
Even though Yuni had explained that the other party had turned over a new leaf, Tsunayoshi Sawada felt that he could no longer endure it.
He took a deep breath and smiled gently at Yuni.
"Yoni, come, come to me."
The girl with dark green hair knelt down obediently, watching the two adults interacting with each other, and couldn't help but smiled.
Then he really walked towards the Godfather who looked much more reliable.
Shiran, who was originally fighting with Sawada Tsunayoshi by pulling the lace on the little girl's collar: ! !
"Unnie-chan QUQ!!!"
Bai Lan was a good girl, and even stared at the girl walking towards the brown-haired young man with her eyes wide open, staring at her cold and heartless husband like an abandoned wife.
"Yun-chan, quq," he sobbed softly, reaching out to keep her, even the little wings behind him drooped down in disappointment, and he hung his head and covered his stomach, "Don't you want me anymore, Yun-chan? You, you don't want our child either?"
The expression of the girl with short dark green hair moved slightly, but the godfather, who had expected this, had already raised his hands, covered the girl's ears, and looked at the guy in white with a smile.
Yuni blinked blankly and looked at her parents beside her.
"Mr. Sawada?"
The girl's voice was soft and thin, her blue eyes were bright and clear. Sawada Tsunayoshi smiled at her before removing his hands.
"Things not fit for a young lady to hear," he said, and gave a warning look to the fellow who was said to have turned over a new leaf.
"I don't think Mr. Bai Lan would want to have close contact with my fist again." He gently reminded him, "Although I think it would be better if the dark circles were symmetrical on the left and right."
How beautiful that is!
That's called getting punched twice!
But Bai Lan Jessou, who had lost all support, remained quiet, weak and helpless.
Only then did Tsunayoshi Sawada slowly look at the other person.
Byakuran Jesso can be considered his "old friend". Before this, Sawada Tsunayoshi's desk was filled with his information, ranging from Byakuran Jesso's growth experience since childhood to his family development process. The other party seemed to not care about others' prying into this, and he openly opened all the information for everyone to see.
However, they had only a handful of face-to-face encounters, and at the final moment, he gambled wildly with the other party, betting his own life and the future of the world.
But obviously, the Bai Lan at this moment seemed to be a little different from the one in his memory. The difference was not much, but it clearly distinguished him from his previous self.
In Yuni's words, it is the "purified" Bai Lan.
However, Sawada Tsunayoshi still had to try very hard to restrain his impulse to rush forward and punch his opponent flat - even though he did throw such a punch just now, and the opponent caught it solidly.
But after all, they are both the cube of seven, so as long as there is no intention of fighting to the death, such "interactions" can still be considered normal greetings.
And if the opponent had not intended to take it, Sawada Tsunayoshi's punch would not have left such a deep mark on his face.
It can also be regarded as an alternative way for the other party to show goodwill.
Sawada Tsunayoshi pursed his lips.
"alright."
Seeing that the two seemingly immature adults finally calmed down, Yuni clapped her hands and looked at Bai Lan who seemed to be crying again, "Can you be quiet and let me talk, Bai Lan?"
Just like a ferocious beast or a playful Husky hearing the trainer's orders, a large white and soft marshmallow calmed down.
"Okay." He said softly, and finally allowed Sawada Tsunayoshi to see something in this creature named "Bai Lan" that matched his memory.
Sawada Tsunayoshi was not surprised, but he still lowered his eyes thoughtfully.
Meeting his gaze, the little girl with dark green hair pursed her lips and smiled softly.
"We are here to bring you a gift," she said briskly, "Mr. Sawada."
…
Meanwhile, in Sawada Tsunayoshi's Hello Kitty-themed room, two groups of people were in a stalemate.
After the rookie asked, "Master, what do you do?", both parties relaxed a little.
Verlaine looked at the rookie.
Although this was a new face, Weilun remembered that his good brother was a guy who liked to pick up kids everywhere. Looking at the other person's youthful face, he naturally found the right position for him.
The rookie was stunned by the gaze from his boss's brother, and then he remembered the guidance and persuasion of his predecessors when he first entered the Sheep.
It is said that in addition to the people on the sheep itself who need to be recognized and remembered, there are two more sides - one is the overlord port mafia of Yokohama, and the other is the leader's brother, a powerful man who is said to be the legendary "Transcendent".
He had never seen the other person's photo, but with the vague introduction of Yang's predecessor and the words "you'll know when you see him/her", he was surprisingly able to recognize the other person...after saying something he shouldn't have said.
After all, the man who turned around had almost the same hairstyle as his boss.
The rookie paused, not knowing what to say for a moment.
And Verlaine's scrutiny was over.
He realized from the rookie's awkward expression that the other party probably recognized him, and nodded at him.
"What else needs to be fixed?"
He asked, unexpectedly calmly for the rookie.
Have you gotten through it?
The rookie stammered as he recalled the places that needed to be changed - thanks to Sawada Tsunayoshi, who realized belatedly that the other party probably didn't like Hello Kitty that much (at least not to the point of painting the whole room to look like Hello Kitty) after a moment of excitement and enthusiasm. Nakahara Chuuya, with a trace of barely detectable guilt, asked the rookie to prepare the materials for changing the decoration without disturbing the other party.
He swallowed and slowly explained to his brother, Boss, who looked super fierce.
The other party's attitude was unexpectedly peaceful.
Even if there weren't two policemen with different views standing behind him (probably), the rookie should have been nervous when facing this man.
After all, he is the brother of the legendary Boss.
The Nordic god, the man known as the Assassin King, someone once tried to monitor the man's strength, but after trying every possible means to stay by his side for a week, they came to the conclusion that it was impossible to measure.
These are what the "sheep" members told the rookies.
Although some of the comments were slightly exaggerated because of their leader, in terms of objective facts, what the other party said was not wrong.
Therefore, the rookie once thought that the opponent was another Instructor Kurosawa - perhaps even more terrifying than their own Instructor Kurosawa.
However, it was not until we met face to face that we realized that this was not the case.
--Really?
Such a thought flashed through the rookie's mind.
The feeling of being attacked from both sides by Boss's brother and Instructor Kurosawa left him with no time to think about unnecessary problems. After he finished stammering, the young man with light blond hair nodded indifferently, as if he was really going to help.
Rookie: Hiss…
“Where’s the stuff?” Verlaine asked.
Of course I'm not ready yet!
The rookie remembered that he had gone downstairs to prepare these things when he met Instructor Kurosawa and Officer Hagiwara. He explained haltingly and was then hurried back up by the indifferent Boss's brother to get the things.
To be honest, he didn't want to leave here.
The rookie thought.
After all, Instructor Kurosawa and Officer Hagiwara are still here... If he's here, he can provide some cover for the two of them. If he goes down, what will they do if their true identities are discovered? It's not like they're really a master who comes to pretend to be something.
But under the cold gaze of Weilan, he had no choice but to leave reluctantly.
I hope I won’t be discovered when I come back… Pray for Nia.
After watching the curly-haired rookie leave the room, Weilun turned his attention back to the two men.
Whether what the rookie said was true or not was up to him to judge, but he was sure that the man in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.
It would be a huge waste if such a guy were to do the loading and unloading and maintenance work.
If it were the Verlaine of the past, he would have probably taken action first.
His special ability can almost kill people in an instant. Even if he wants to kill the two men in front of him in an instant, it is not impossible.
But he did nothing.
The young man with light blond hair lowered his eyes slightly, and when his gaze fell on the cub curled up and sleeping, an imperceptible tenderness leaked out.
The self-centered and indomitable beast, in the gentle embrace of time, seems to have learned the virtue of consideration and love.
And Kurosawa Jin also set his sights on the beast with the same aura.
Before that, those green eyes were almost frozen on the small bed.
Even though they couldn't see the child lying on the bed clearly because of the protective bed rails, the moment their eyes touched the soft brown hair, the gem deep in Kurosawa Jin's soul glowed in response.
It's that guy.
Even though he had personally witnessed the other's funeral, Kurosawa Jin still chose to trust his intuition like a beast surviving in the wilderness.
He should probably feel angry at being fooled. His long silver hair swayed slightly as he walked. When he was Gin, he was used to letting his hair down. Perhaps he didn't have the time in the United States to take care of it, or perhaps there was no need.
But after becoming a cop, his life seemed to be forced to slow down. Although he still carried out his plans and moved forward as he pleased, he lost the urgency he had when he was on the edge of a knife.
I don't know when Kurosawa Jin tied his hair up.
He saw the cub curled up in the ridiculous cradle.
With short brown hair and soft cheeks, if someone held him and said he was Johnny English's son, it would be more reliable than his intuition.
But Kurosawa Jin has another intuition.
Before he could take another step, the ferocious beast with short light blond hair stopped him.
Kurosawa Jin raised his eyelids.
"Get out of the way," he whispered.
Weilan pursed his lips, revealing an unhappy expression.
The atmosphere was tense for a while.
It was unknown who started the fight first. Considering that the person was from his brother's territory and the other cub, who was suspected to be his brother's cub, was still sleeping, although he was very unhappy with the other party, Weilun did not choose the easiest way. At the beginning, he just used the simplest physical skills to fight the opponent.
As the fight went on, the two guys who were the kings of their respective worlds and fields also became more and more bloody. For a moment, they were inseparable. Daggers and cutlery that they took out from somewhere were flying everywhere, and only made sounds at the moment of collision and stretching.
“Wait…”
Hagiwara Kenji, who was standing cautiously at the door, stretched out his hand and saw the usually cold Kurosawa Jin grinning slyly when the fight paused. His voice became faint in the fight between the two beasts.
It was in this situation that Tsunayoshi Sawada woke up.
Knowing that there was no way to stop these two obviously battle-crazed guys, Hagiwara Kenji kept an eye on the situation while looking at the cradle. Finally, he gritted his teeth and rushed to the side of the cubs, trying to protect them from being affected by the fight.
——Although the beasts seemed to be restraining themselves from approaching the cubs when they were biting.
However, cold weapons are blind.
The police officer, who had no idea that Weilan had special abilities, was fixed by a pair of familiar brown eyes before he could even touch the curled-up sleeping cub.
At that moment, many things flashed through his mind.
There was the initial stunning glimpse, and there was the relief when I received the message “S” many months later, and what else?
Kenji Hagiwara looked at the pair of brown eyes, and many years flashed through his mind, finally returning to the appearance of his senior when they last met.
"Senior...?"
He heard his own dry voice.
And Sawada Tsunayoshi quickly came to his senses.
Because of Hagiwara Kenji's body blocking the way, the two fighting beasts did not seem to notice his awakening. But Sawada Tsunayoshi was able to quickly realize the current situation.
He pursed his lips, patted the arm of his former editor and partner soothingly, and stood up crookedly.
He tried to climb out of the well-protected crib.
Kenji Hagiwara was stunned for a moment before he quickly stepped forward to help. After picking up the cub from the bed, he did not put it down, but stepped back nervously.
"It's very dangerous now," he quickly adjusted his state of mind. The departure of his predecessor was an established fact. Although he was not quite sure about the identity of this child, he was obviously inextricably linked to his predecessor - otherwise he would not have come back with Kurosawa Jin.
Sawada Tsunayoshi heard the tension behind his words, but now was obviously not a good time to explain.
He patted the other person's arm again and jumped away when Hagiwara Kenji relaxed a little.
The brown-haired cub hopped onto the nearest table where the vase stood.
He stretched out his hand, and on his little paw, there appeared a ring, which was slightly grey, but when the holder injected fire into it, a lively light danced.
Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at the two people fighting each other, lowered his eyes, and recalled the "gift" that Yuni brought.
It was a thank-you gift from the other two great voids of the cube of Toshiki, the guardian of this world, which allowed him to temporarily escape from this helpless look and return to his original state - for only three minutes.
Just as Yuni reminded me, I can try it once after waking up, and it will not count against the original number of times.
Then he lowered his eyes and spoke softly.
“Please give me a gift.”
