"So you know this behavior is extremely immoral?"
Hei Yu Qianying raised her snow-white neck and sighed softly.
That's truly a jockey who despises his ancestors.
"I'm so sorry, Master," Yu Shengnan said, but his actions became even more unrestrained. "I can only 'respect' Master's wife properly."
As compensation.
He decided to give Kuroba Chikage a sum of compensation, and that there would be room for further increases later.
There's nothing I can do; he's just a kind-hearted person.
If you make a mistake, you should correct it and make amends.
Kuroba Chikage pressed her burning cheeks against the back of the chair, not even bothering to correct the boy's address. Her brain was spinning, and she felt like she was melting.
"It's... there's no going back now."
.........
.........
Jiang Gutian, basement of the Blue Parrot Bar.
Kaito Kuroba was excitedly fiddling with his newly arrived magic props.
Since arguing with his mother and leaving home, this has become his temporary residence, and he usually goes out here.
"Young Master, these are all new goods delivered by the Doctor."
Terai Kinosuke said from the side.
Kaito picked up a magic gun that gleamed with a cold light. Compared to the old version, this gun was more sophisticated in its construction, with several adjustment valves added to the barrel.
“Try this.” He adjusted the knob and pulled the trigger.
"call out--"
The specially made magic card spun out and exploded when it hit the corner dummy. A large net gleaming with cold light instantly enveloped the dummy, and fine anesthetic needles were injected into it upon contact.
Terai Kinosuke explained, "The duration of the anesthetic effect has been increased to three hours, and the net rope is made of a new alloy that cannot be cut with ordinary knives."
"Perfect design!"
Kaito whistled with satisfaction.
With the new props, the sky cleared, the rain stopped, and he felt he could finally have a go at Yuzuru again.
"Grandpa Terai, ask your doctoral friend to send over some more of these special playing cards. This stock is far from enough. People who don't know better might think we can't afford them."
Kaito casually grabbed a handful of playing cards, letting them flow effortlessly between his fingers. "Let's customize some with tracking capabilities, and some that release hypnotic gas..."
Terai Kinosuke's expression suddenly turned troubled: "Young Master... this..."
"What's wrong?"
Kaito stopped what he was doing and looked at the old butler with a puzzled expression.
Terai Kinosuke sighed: "Our account... doesn't have much money left."
"What?!" Kaito's playing cards scattered on the floor. "How could this be? We haven't been..."
“All the equipment purchases were previously funded by Madam,” Terai explained, “but since you left home, young master, Madam has frozen all related accounts…”
Kaito's expression froze instantly.
He used to spend money lavishly, so he was really not used to being told he had no money now.
"How about... young master goes home and apologizes to madam?"
Terai Kinosuke made the suggestion cautiously.
Kaito scratched his head in frustration: "Are you kidding me! I would never..."
His voice abruptly stopped.
I suddenly realized that I hadn't seen my mother in a long time.
After our last argument, all I did was say was that my mom's surname wasn't originally Kuroba, and she almost killed me with an axe. If it weren't for Grandpa Terai saving me, I would have lost my life.
He even doubted whether he was really his biological son.
"I wonder what Mom is doing now..." Kaito's gaze fell on the photo of his father, Toichi Kuroba, on the wall.
The magician in the photo is frozen in the moment of his smile.
"If only Dad were still here, Mom wouldn't understand what the meaning of 'Kaito Kid' is at all."
Kaito looked indignant.
He couldn't understand why his mother didn't support his actions.
Of course, he was completely unaware of the shameful way his mother was surrendering to her greatest adversary at that moment.
..............
"Clear the board, Kazuha Toyama wins!"
"Finalists: Kazuha Toyama from Kaifang Academy, and Momiji Ooka from Quanxin Academy!"
As the referee announced it loudly, the final list of finalists was revealed.
"Wow! That's amazing!"
Can we win the championship?
"Of course!"
The three little ones cheered from the audience.
On the big screen, the girl in the taekwondo uniform who had defeated her opponent put her hands on the floor, looked up at the sky, let out a long sigh, and muttered, "Finally won. Next, it's time to fight that woman."
She won't lose, for Nan's sake.
"Hahaha, I knew Kazuha could do it!"
Sonoko excitedly hugged Ran.
The three mature women, Shizuka Ikenami, Eri Kisaki, and Yukiko, also smiled and clapped along.
Ikeba Shizuka was very pleased with her apprentice's performance.
Yuzuru was not surprised at all by this scene.
In the original anime, Kazuha, who hadn't studied under Shizuka Ikenami beforehand, still made it all the way to the finals. Now, under her guidance, she's been training with the former karuta queen for so long.
"Young Master Yuzuru, do you think Kazuha can win?"
Akemi tilted her head and asked in a low voice.
"Hmm~" Yuzuru thought for a moment and said, "The outcome is hard to predict; it depends on how well the two perform on the day."
He wasn't entirely sure that Kazuha could easily beat Koyo.
After all, according to the original storyline, not only did Kazuha lose in the end, but even Shizuka Ikenami was slightly inferior in her contest with Momiji Ooka, who cleared out her deck first.
Of course, this is partly due to Ikenami Shizuka's long-standing absence from the game, but we cannot deny Ooka Momiji's talent in karuta.
This is also why the noblewoman can always be so confident.
Seeing that even her young master was unsure, the little maid blinked, her gaze returning to the big screen, and said with a smile, "Kazuha has a strong competitive spirit, and I believe she will definitely win the final match."
Yuzuru nodded in agreement.
This characteristic is quite terrifying in anime.
Whenever the enemy thinks they've won, they hear the other side shouting about friendship, love, and bonds, then they're fully revived and turn the tide.
This time, the energetic girl is fighting for love.
I can't imagine how much potential she can unleash.
Listening to their conversation, Ai glanced sideways at Yuzuru, who looked refreshed as he returned from outside.
She twitched her little nose slightly and gave a cold laugh.
That scoundrel cheated on me again.
"What's wrong?" Yuzuru turned his head innocently.
"It's nothing." Ai turned her head away expressionlessly, her small hands rapidly typing on her phone, updating her previous post: [Supplement: What to do if your boyfriend cheats? Chemical castration suggested]
