Chapter 64 The Loser Marries into the Suzuki Family
For XANXUS, the 14-year-old hot-tempered mafia boss, the furry creature that can only meow is a very magical existence.
Because of the ninth generation's order, he had to take her with him no matter what he did. He couldn't be cold or hot. Not only could he not hit her, he also couldn't leave her alone to fight.
It's a hassle anyway.
But now he rarely has the urge to kill her the first time they meet, so it's quite fun to get along with her.
Because she has a very capable person like XANXUS following her, Suzuki Sonoko can go out and walk on the road when she is free.
In Yuanzi's opinion, language barrier is not a big deal. After all, she has only learned to speak a few years ago and has not forgotten the body language yet.
The child who was raised wholeheartedly by the Suzuki family basically has no self-awareness of being willful. Sonoko wants to buy everything she sees and never has the intention to pay for it.
Normally, nannies are paid, but her current temporary nanny is XANXUS.
One day, Yuanzi saw two exquisite puppets in a street window, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
From XANXUS's perspective, she was stunned like an idiot, then meowed at the window, and finally pulled XANXUS's sleeve and pulled him into the store.
The shop owner was a smiling old man. Although he didn't understand what Yuanzi said, he patiently gestured with her. Finally, he opened the window and put the two puppets, which were as long as her forearms, into her arms.
The kitten then lowered its head and rubbed the doll, squinting its eyes as it rubbed, making the same purring sound that a kitten makes when it just wakes up.
XANXUS felt an itch in his hands after a long time, but this time he didn't want to kick her away, but he couldn't help but want to raise his hand to stroke her soft hair.
However, until the end, his hand remained motionless in his trouser pocket, and he just scolded her impatiently: "Such a big person, and you want two at a time, aren't you greedy?"
Sonoko didn't understand what he said. She looked at the puppet in her left hand, then at the puppet in her right hand, and then distributed them: "The left one is for Xiaolan, and I'll keep the right one."
After finishing the distribution, he nodded to himself, then stood on tiptoe and handed both puppets to XANXUS.
"Hold it for me, I'll take some pictures when we get back. Let Xiaolan see if she likes it first."
XANXUS looked at the doll handed to him, then at the little girl who kept meowing, and said impatiently: "Do you think I am you? You like this kind of thing?"
However, she still persisted in handing it to herself.
So the impatient young master finally compromised.
He held a doll with two eyes that took up half of its face, puzzled: What was so beautiful about this thing?
——I feel embarrassed to hold it, so I might as well just throw it away.
Before he made his move, he lowered his head. Seven-year-old Miss Suzuki raised her hands and happily spun around in circles, thinking, "I think Xiaolan will definitely like this. She has always liked red, so I will leave the red one for her!"
XANXUS listened to a series of non-stop meows, but ultimately didn't throw the things away.
——Stupid cat.
Given the obvious difference in leg length between the two, when they walk on the road, Yuanzi must walk slowly and XANXUS must walk quickly.
But Yuanzi has never changed anything for anyone since she was a child. Although she can never catch up with the long legs, she is not interested in running. XANXUS is even more impatient to go back to find someone after walking for a while.
After three confrontations without success, Suzuki Sonoko sighed and opened her arms to the tall boy in front of her who could not understand what she was saying.
To hug.
But XANXUS didn't want to hug her at all.
To be honest, it’s annoying enough to just look after a child, not to mention wasting his time, but she also wants him to be her ride… Who does she think she’s dealing with?
The man with two Xs in his name, destined to inherit the Vongola family, sneered.
Suzuki Sonoko has been carried around since she was a child and has basically gotten used to it. Now looking at his obvious expression, she doesn't know how it's just a hug, so how can it offend his self-esteem?
The little girl sighed maturely: "You are so naive, what will you do in the future?"
XANXUS didn't care what she was meowing about. He turned his head inadvertently and found a big basket in the window of the shop next door. The basket was filled with two big thick pillows and a small blanket. On the blanket sat a big teddy bear half a person's height. It was obviously a very expensive thing.
Suddenly, a magical light bulb lit up above the young tyrant's head.
So he calmly took out his gun, smashed the window with a "bang", then took the bear out of the basket and threw it on the ground, then held the basket in front of the furry bear that was only as tall as his waist.
Yuanzi, dressed in furry clothes, looked down at the basket, then looked up at XANXUS, and finally looked at the big bear that was originally lying in the basket and was thrown to the ground by X, and suddenly realized.
She jumped twice on the spot, looked at the basket with a sense of challenge, then carefully took off her shoes and stepped into the basket in her socks.
The bear was a little bigger than Suzuki Sonoko. If the bear could squat down under the basket, so could she. Sonoko sat down with her knees hugged, but she held the edge of the basket and looked down with curiosity.
X didn't wait for her to express any emotion. He thought it would be best if she was willing to sit in it. He raised his hand, picked up the basket, shook it hard, and carried her away.
After that, the two of them moved around like this: Sonoko didn't have to run, and XANXUS didn't have to wait—she sat in the basket, and it was XANXUS who decided where to go. If he didn't want to go into those small shops, he could just ignore her tugging at his pants and her series of meows and just carry her away, and that would solve all the problems!
To be honest, it actually feels pretty good to have a little thing that makes him want to stroke his fur all the time, without having to suppress his temper to go into all kinds of magical little shops.
That day, XANXUS was really too idle, so he took his basket and went to the shooting range to stretch his muscles.
For the future tenth generation, it was just a stretch, but for the 7-year-old Suzuki Sonoko, it was so cool that she felt like she was about to suffocate!
When XANXUS put down the gun he had just picked up, he actually didn't even break a sweat. The unsatisfactory feeling that he hadn't fully released was always with him. As a result, he turned around with a sullen face, and saw the stupid cat clapping his hands, with little stars sparkling in his eyes.
The magical feeling that had rarely appeared recently in XANXUS emerged again. It came so suddenly that he had no time to restrain himself because he happened to have two guns in his hands and he raised his hands to start firing.
Fortunately, he still had his sanity and his muscle control was outstanding, so instead of shooting at Suzuki Sonoko, he changed direction and shot at the two recently bought puppet dolls placed on the bench next to her.
Yuanzi: “…”
Sonoko: “Ah——”
That’s what I want to give to Xiaolan!
I even spoiled the photo, and you typed it like this?!
Suzuki Sonoko stared at the wreckage for almost ten seconds before she realized she needed to lose her temper. She grabbed XANXUS's trouser leg and started to reason with him.
"How could you do this? That's the gift I chose with so much effort..."
XANXUS could still only hear the meowing, and growing annoyed by it, he simply lifted her up by the scruff of her neck.
He was also very unhappy. Being able to force the direction to change at the last minute was his greatest kindness. How could this little thing not know how to be coquettish?
He shook his arms and said, "Didn't you give me that thing? Since it's mine, I can break it if I want!"
This posture was really unfriendly. Sonoko was hanging in the air with her fangs and claws bared. She stretched out her hands hard but couldn't hit his face. Her face turned red with anger. She took a clip from her hair and threw the bow at XANXUS's face.
Sicily's famous young tyrant was stunned.
After being scratched by the cat, XANXUS was depressed for a long time and finally realized something.
It’s not that he’s not scary anymore, but that the stupid cat doesn’t understand what he’s threatening and has no idea how scary he is.
That's why she dared to disobey.
So, in order to achieve the goal of hurting the other party during the quarrel and let the stupid cat know how terrible he is, XANXUS began to teach Suzuki Sonoko to speak human language.
Although there was no formal engagement, because Kyudai had made a clear request, according to convention, the Suzuki family would go to Italy to live for three months every year (Suzuki Ayako would also go to her husband's house to live for three months every year) to increase the time the two sides spent together and thus achieve the purpose of mutual understanding.
Seven years old, eight years old, nine years old, a full three years.
Then, when Sonoko went to Italy for a trip when she was nine years old, she found that XANXUS, who used to either argue with her or get angry, seemed to have some changes.
Because this person did not boastfully say, "That ring will be mine sooner or later."
At that time, Suzuki Sonoko didn't know that Vongola was a mafia. She just thought that those rings were a proof of inheritance. She simply thought that such things were very ceremonial and made the family look ancient and cool.
She once held up a picture album of Vongola rings, pointed at the exquisite rings on it and asked XANXUS: "When you inherit the family business, can you give me one?"
The result was that he was flicked on the forehead by the other party.
This time, Sonoko noticed something was amiss, but aside from not showing off the ring, there didn't seem to be anything particularly strange. She pondered this for several days, and finally, unable to resist, she asked him, "Where's your ring? Are you still unwilling to give me one?"
When the girl's cheerful voice fell, XANXUS, who was sitting on the sofa, laughed undisguisedly.
The taunting didn't seem to be directed at Suzuki Sonoko, but it was indeed full of malice. For a moment, Sonoko's intuition told her that this person was mocking her.
When XANXUS came out of that strange mood, he picked up the plate of snacks that she had been longing for and poured it into the trash can.
——This man doesn’t like snacks. His main purpose is to make her tempted. After snatching it away, he actually threw it away!
Suzuki Sonoko stared blankly at the empty plate in front of her, not reacting for a long time.
"How could you do that?"
XANXUS glanced at her without any emotion.
Sonoko was a little angry when he looked at her. Under the education of the Suzuki family, she could do whatever she wanted, eat any expensive food she wanted, and even eat the leftover food without any regrets.
But this definitely does not include throwing away good food just because of a momentary anger.
At this moment, Ms. Suzuki counted on her fingers and recited the lines from the public service announcement she had memorized for years: "Food is hard to come by. Although you can eat whatever expensive food you want when you have money, you can't waste food carelessly. There are still many people on the earth who don't even have enough to eat."
Because of the subtle pleasure she felt while preaching, she expressed herself for a while.
"Think about it. If you weren't born into a well-fed and well-clothed family like this, you might be one of the thousands of poor people who have to go hungry. In that situation, what would you feel if you saw others throwing away food casually?
Before he could finish the word, Suzuki Sonoko counted on her fingers and looked up, and was frightened by the expression on XANXUS's face.
The feeling is hard to describe: it's like before a storm at sea, or a volcano erupting, or a frying pan filled with water, or something else. There's an overwhelming hatred and oppression.
Suzuki Sonoko was even more shocked.
——Why did this person get angry so easily?
——If you are so self-centered that you can’t even listen to this kind of talk, then when you see a public service announcement, will you be so angry that you smash the TV?
Because she has regarded this little brother with a bad temper as half her own, Suzuki Sonoko is actually quite willful when facing him. One of the reasons is that when she feels that she is not wrong, she starts waiting for the person who is wrong to come and coax her.
Ever since he discovered the secret, XANXUS has been controlled by a dark and irritable mood. He originally had a lot of patience with this little thing, but when he came to his senses, he found that the stupid cat was scratching his hands leisurely, and his patience disappeared in an instant.
Sure enough, annoying guys are just that annoying.
But XANXUS changed his mind and realized that this little thing was the fiancée the old man had found for him. Although she was only nine years old, she was the daughter of a partner who could decide the amount of power on the land of Vongola.
If he wasn't the son of the ninth generation of Vongola, he probably wouldn't even have the chance to coax a child...
Unfortunately, he is not.
Thinking of this, XANXUS couldn't help but sneer, and for the first time he really considered kicking this little girl who was destined to marry the ninth generation's offspring away.
On the other side, Suzuki Sonoko also began to reflect: She always felt that although XANXUS was fierce, he was not a violent person who would get angry when he heard the slogan of a public service announcement.
So he went over what he had said in his mind again, and finally, relying on his magical brain circuit, he grasped the reason why XANXUS was angry.
——Apart from the first part about wasting food, the focus of the second half is [if you were not born in such a family].
"If you hadn't been born into this family, your father wouldn't be the ninth generation..."
Suzuki Sonoko muttered a few words and looked up at XANXUS.
"What? So you're not my biological child?"
XANXUS: Good, this thing really needs to die.
Yuanzi suddenly realized what was going on and lowered his head to continue picking at his hands.
The environment in which Suzuki Sonoko lives is not simply one of rich local tycoons. The so-called chaebols are mostly linked to large families with a long history.
These families all have some feudalistic behavioral habits - including the Suzuki family, which recognizes the eldest son as the heir - and Sonoko is accustomed to this kind of thing when interacting with large families.
Although illegitimate children have the right of inheritance, inheriting part of the property and letting the illegitimate child become the head of the family are two different things. If things get urgent, the hostess would rather adopt a child with some blood relationship from the side branch as a base, and use him as the basis to operate the position of the head of the family (the Xu Wang family is purely because the old lady is not dead, and Madam Jingjiang cannot argue with her).
Anyway, from the concepts that Yuanzi accidentally came into contact with, adopted children are much more welcome than illegitimate children, and most of the adopted children she came into contact with were specifically designed to be heirs.
The fact that XANXUS was not Kyudai's biological son was of no importance to Sonoko, who was used to that kind of concept.
The Italian teenager, whose body shape was close to that of an adult man, sat on the higher sofa beside her and raised his hand silently.
After all, it was a stupid cat that he had been coaxing for years, so it would be best for him to do it himself.
But in the next second, the indifferent little girl holding the doll yawned a little: "But it's nothing."
Sonoko thought of the difference between XANXUS before and after, and suspected that he didn't know that he was adopted before, and was only recently told by the ninth generation, so he found it a little hard to accept.
——So we should learn from those ladies about this kind of thing. Make it clear at the beginning, and then we won’t have to worry about feeling awkward when getting along with each other later.
Miss Suzuki, accustomed to this, recalled those cases and comforted him, "Adopted children have inheritance rights as well. What's yours will be yours sooner or later. Although you don't have an experienced adoptive mother to help you, you don't have illegitimate brothers to defeat!"
At this point, Sonoko felt that XANXUS's previous anger had a reason, so she generously forgave him.
So she turned around with a smile and wanted to say, "Don't try to coax me, I'm not angry with you anymore." But then she saw XANXUS's big hand, which was half opened and held above her head.
XANXUS grew up in the slums. He fought and rummaged through garbage when he was a child. When he grew up, he became the young master of the mafia. He practiced fighting and firearms. His palms were sparse and the joints were thick. At this moment, he raised his hands slightly, and the shadow cast by them almost covered Yuanzi's entire face.
Just a moment ago, this hand was about to break her neck.
However, Yuanzi looked at the huge hand that covered the sky and the sun in front of her and blinked calmly.
As someone who had been touched on the head by all kinds of people since she was a child, she didn't feel any sense of incongruity in this action. She just thought that he happened to touch her head and her face turned, so she cooperated by sitting up a little straighter, holding his thumb and little finger with both hands, tilting her head back and rubbing the top of her furry hair on his palm.
Although XANXUS was irritable, Sonoko found that he really liked to touch her head, and the force when he touched her was not too strong.
In Suzuki Sonoko's opinion, patting the head probably means reconciliation.
So she lowered her head and scratched her hands again.
Only XANXUS, who was inexplicably rubbed with the warmth in his palm, was left staring at his palm in a daze. The surprise and helplessness in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows even made people see a rare bit of youthful innocence.
He looked at his palms which seemed to be a little itchy, then looked at the silly cat who was scratching his hands with his head down, and finally, he didn't know what he thought of. He suddenly sneered, clenched his fists, and knocked them lightly on the armrest.
You are right.
Since the old man adopted him, he is the old man's son. He can't use a dream to deceive him for several years, and when he wholeheartedly wants his son to inherit his father's business and make him proud of him, he can't reveal everything and say that it was all fake.
He is a man with two Xs in his name, destined to become the tenth generation of the Vongola family.
It is definitely not the product of someone's momentary weakness and guilt!
Even if there's no blood relationship and it's not recognized, so what? Vongola is his...
XANXUS leaned lazily against the wide back of the chair, and suddenly raised his leg to kick the small sofa where Sonoko was sitting. The kick was so powerful that Suzuki Sonoko was shocked all over.
She wanted to get angry, but XANXUS covered her hair again and rubbed her vigorously with a force that seemed very strong but definitely didn't hurt. Then, when Yuanzi was itching and was about to pick up some jewelry to throw at him, he whispered a promise: "When I take the old man's seat, I can give you one of the seven rings."
Suzuki Sonoko, whose wish suddenly came true, instantly forgot her anger and nodded happily.
"It's a deal!"
XANXUS did not respond, but curled his lips and said "huh" to her.
A few days later, it was time for the Suzuki family to leave. To show respect for his partners, Jiudai personally came forward and saw off the Suzuki family's cruise ship at the private dock.
XANXUS carried Suzuki Sonoko onto the deck. Sonoko had been carried by her the whole time. This was the first time she enjoyed the treatment of being carried. Before saying goodbye, she couldn't stop muttering in XANXUS's ear.
"Where's the ring you promised me? You didn't forget it so quickly, did you?"
The man holding him lowered his eyes from an angle that could not be seen in the garden, took a deep look at his "father", and then laughed softly. He used to look like a lion that was about to get angry at any time, but at this moment, his smile looked like a lone wolf ready to hunt.
"It will be available next time you come."
The deep voice, now indistinguishable from that of an adult male, whispered, "When you come back next time, all those rings will be mine."
That night was the infamous Cradle Rebellion.
XANXUS, the son of the ninth Vongola, led his subordinates, the special assassination force Varian, in a rebellion, trying to seize Vongola by force, but was broken through the ice by the ninth Vongola with Zero Point.
In other words, this is actually retribution.
The marriage contract between the two families was put on hold because one party froze it. The next year, Yuanzi was still puzzled: Why don’t we go to Italy this year?
Thinking about the phone call from the ninth generation, which was a mixture of apology and heartache, Suzuki's father sighed tiredly, touched her head, and just said that we should go to a different place this year, to the United States, instead of Italy.
At that time, Yuanzi still remembered that XANXUS had a ring on his hand that he promised to give her. Since he had been thinking about it for several years, he felt a little regretful that he could not get it for the time being.
Three years passed, and Sonoko grew from 10 to 13 years old. Although the two companies continued to cooperate, the young master of the Italian company seemed to have disappeared and never appeared again. For Sonoko, who had a bad memory, this was a very long time.
When she met interesting people in the United States, the place she looked forward to going to at that time every year naturally changed to the United States.
So, even the ring that she had been thinking about for a long time disappeared from Yuanzi's memory along with the bad-tempered little brother.
=====
The heartless Miss Suzuki is so easily bored that she has basically forgotten who taught her Italian. But for XANXUS, the instigator of the Cradle Rebellion, he escaped from the ice the day after he promised to give a ring to Silly Cat and send her away.
Reborn's understanding of this story came from a close confidant of Iemitsu Vongola's external consultants - the psychiatrist who treated XANXUS back then.
Before, Reborn always thought that his stupid apprentice could win, so he had limited worries. As long as everything went according to his arrangements, even if there were some unexpected situations, Tsuna would definitely qualify as the heir smoothly.
The unexpected situations he anticipated included his stupid apprentice having diarrhea, Varian cheating, and even a sudden earthquake or explosion in Bingsheng.
According to Reborn XANXUS's understanding, having his position as leader taken away was one thing, but having his fiancée, who was almost engaged, taken away was another.
But if these two things happen at the same time—
hehe.
The next day, the War of the Ring officially began.
During this period, Namimori was under complete martial law. Although it looked the same as usual, the entire town was surrounded by defenders of Cerbero.
In order to ensure fairness, the external consultants could only retreat to the outskirts of the town to be on guard.
Taking into account the recent behavior pattern of Miss Suzuki Sonoko, Reborn directly asked people to block the road that Namimori had to pass through, and made sure to stop Suzuki Sonoko at the door.
——If she accidentally came to the scene of the crime, and in front of XANXUS, she dazedly called out "Ugetsu" to Yamamoto Takeshi, the scene would be so beautiful that even the big devil didn't want to think about it.
As for what happened suddenly, I don't know what it looks like...
The highest-ranking consultant outside the door, the one guarding the entrance, had a portrait of a character produced by the first generation of Lan Shou in his arms. Because the painting was too vivid, there was no need to worry that he would not recognize the target.
Until the Ring War is decided, Suzuki Sonoko must not be allowed to enter and enter the arena!
Because the arrangements were very complete, both sides lived in peace until the day of the Battle of Wu Shou.
Suzuki Sonoko squatted at home, looking at the map and thinking about buying land.
Although it is important to find Yamamoto Takeshi to save herself from the nightmare, doing homework is equally important. In addition, she has wasted a lot of time in Namimori before, so she has to speed up her work. The map that Sonoko is looking at now belongs to Fuyuki.
It was almost time for dinner when Colom came downstairs for the first time. She said she had something to do tonight and had to go out.
Sonoko took a marker and marked all the coastal areas near Fuyuki Harbor. Without even looking up, she replied, "Go ahead."
——Although she looks weak, Chrom's fighting power can beat ordinary people several times in minutes. If she really encounters a tough opponent, she can even change her personality temporarily, so Sonoko never cares about her.
The next second, a puff of smoke suddenly rose in his ears. Following a sigh that seemed very unhappy, Rokudo Mukuro pressed his hand on the top of Suzuki Sonoko's head and said, "Don't you even ask me where I've been?"
Sonoko rolled her eyes nonchalantly: "I'm not worried about Chrom's fighting ability, let alone you?"
Rokudo Mukuro chuckled a few times, "I'm going to Namimori."
Even though he had revealed the time and place, Sonoko still didn't show any concern for the event he was about to participate in. She just said "Oh" and said, "Nimori is quite far, so I can ask the driver to take you there?"
Rokudo Mukuro raised his eyebrows, annoyed by her stubborn attitude, and simply kept silent.
Sonoko sighed in her heart. It wasn't that she hated Rokudo Mukuro, but she was a little scared of him after seeing so much suffering in the world. Although the teacher couldn't help but avoid him, he didn't really not even talk to him.
So Miss Suzuki looked up from the information and comforted him: "If you are not satisfied with the ordinary one... can I replace it with an extended luxury car?"
Rokudo Mukuro smiled, covering his mouth with his hands, as if defeated by her logic, but his expression became inexplicably gloomy.
——When she fell asleep at night, she cried and worried about the injuries he had suffered in the past. Why did she seem so distracted during the day?
He went there to fight Varian, not to show off his wealth...
Even if you stretch your luxury car, can you drive into that small alley and turn it?
Before he could really say anything, the phone that Suzuki Sonoko had placed on the coffee table rang.
The caller ID showed Soma Yukihira.
It was the end of the Totsuki Autumn Training Camp, and Soma Yukihira had a rare day off. There was nothing particularly important, he just wanted to ask her what she was doing.
As soon as she uttered such a bland opening remark, Marui next to her slapped her on the back.
Beside her, Yuuji gestured with anguish, "We haven't seen each other for such a long time, can you just ask? It's dinner time now, why don't you just ask Miss out for a meal!"
Soma Yukihira was almost dizzy from being dazzled by her. He waved his hands and continued to say to the person on the other end of the phone, "Speaking of which, Sonoko, do you want to come out and have dinner with me?"
Of course!
The land purchase is progressing day by day, and of course we cannot forget the cash cow.
On Sonoko's current list of people she values most, the first person she needs to communicate with regularly is Soma Yukihira.
She put down the map in her hand and answered cheerfully, "Are we going to meet directly in the kitchen [the high-tech kitchenware laboratory that Yuanzi built for him]?"
Yukihira didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Hey, hey, hey, I've been doing this camp for so long, working so hard to cook every day. It's finally over, can you let me take a day off..."
——The training intensity of the training camp is so high that even if you like cooking, you still need a day of rest.
Suzuki Sonoko was indifferent. She felt that no matter who cooked, the food was the same. So, she followed the principle of courtesy and said kindly, "You choose."
Marui, who was leaning against Soma Yukihira's phone and listening closely to the situation, turned around and mouthed to his roommates, "The eldest lady asked Yukihira to choose the place."
Sakaki Ryoko was surprised: "So it looks like Yukihira is going to treat us?"
"What else?"
Yoshino Yuuki clenched her fists and continued to gesture to Yukihira Soma: "Take Sushi, let's go to Take Sushi, the restaurant you recommended last time. If it's been a long time since we last met, it's easy to use the breakpoint in our memory as the starting point for our reunion to evoke a sense of familiarity!"
——Especially the price of bamboo sushi is very affordable!
Soma Yukihira wasn't as attentive as the girls, because this question revealed the question of who would pay. He just wanted to experience the sushi chef whose knife skills were described by his roommates as amazing.
"that……"
On the other end of the phone, Sonoko waited expectantly: "Hmm?"
"I mean," Yukihira scratched his ear. Ever since the people from Polar Star Dormitory started nagging him every day, he felt like something was wrong. Now, even making a phone call was awkward and he didn't know what to say. "Well, it's about that Take Sushi restaurant I recommended to you last time..."
"oh."
Before he could finish his thoughts, Miss Suzuki, who was caring about her cash cow, nodded without any bias: "Okay, let's meet at Take Sushi."
Finally, she added: "Where are you now? Do you need me to send a car to pick you up?"
A card that Soma Yukihira was asked.
During the training camp, except for cooking when he was fully committed, every time he returned to the dormitory after training, he would be pulled over for a heart-to-heart talk. Everyone was very disappointed with him, and even though they were exhausted and their eyelids were fighting, they still forced themselves to teach him various love experiences one by one. Even when Yukihira was drowsy before going to bed, he couldn't help but recall their teachings.
Human memory is actually the thing that is most dependent on thinking. If you think about it too much, it will be easy to supplement it automatically, and then it will slowly become what you are thinking about.
Soma Yukihira thought a lot, and always felt that the memory of the first day they met was frighteningly clear. However, because of this hypnotic imagination, he was not sure whether these clear memories were real. He just felt that the day before, he was still thinking like what Sakaki Ryoko said, that "Sonoko has been plotting against him for a long time", and tomorrow, he would be nagged by Tanosho that "If Soma-kun doesn't respond for a long time, the other party will get tired, and when tired, she will want to let go". He was not very confident, felt that he would be dumped at any time, and was extremely distressed.
As soon as he hung up the phone, the ladies from the Pole Star Dormitory came over in twos and threes, asking, "How's it going? Did you make the appointment?"
"Oh," Soma Yukihira nodded, "We have an appointment."
"Aren't you going to change your clothes then?"
Totsuki Academy covers a large area, and it's quite troublesome to walk out. Isshiki Hui took out her cell phone from her apron pocket and said, "I'll call a car for Yukihira. Yuki, go and help him with his hair!"
Yukihira Soma was carried upstairs by Aoki Daigo and Sato Shoji, shouting to those downstairs as he walked: "Isshiki-senpai, there's no need to call a taxi. Sonoko said she would send one to pick me up—"
Zenji Marui, who was following behind carrying clothes, pushed his glasses expressionlessly.
Damn it, I really want to be kept!
On the other side, Yuanzi hung up the phone, packed up and prepared to go out to get in touch with the money tree.
"how?"
Rokudo Mukuro, who had been standing behind the sofa, asked with a smile, "Is Sonoko going to Namimori too?
Sonoko nodded readily, "My cash cow training camp is finally over. By the time Yato comes back, Tono will be acquired. The first step in buying the land will be completed. I must also speed up my efforts and try to win him over with a sugar-coated bullet within this year!"
Rokudo Mukuro glanced at the map on the table. In his eyes, the person with the title of "Cash Cow" was no different from an employee or information. What he cared about more now was that Suzuki Sonoko always subconsciously avoided him during the day and this was a problem of her attitude.
Seeing Suzuki Sonoko changing her clothes and coming downstairs, Rokudo Mukuro, who had said he was going out, still sat in the hall drinking tea without any hesitation.
"What a pity," he said, taking in Sonoko's standard work attire (a very formal windbreaker), "I might not be able to get into Namimori Sonoko today."
"Why?"
"If you want to know why..."
Rokudo Mukuro knew that Namimori was now surrounded by Cerbero and Vongola in two circles, and the entry and exit of normal people would definitely be restricted.
It's not that they blatantly refuse entry. After all, there are still many indigenous people living a normal life. The means of operation include setting up roadblocks on the access roads, digging holes on the mountain roads to build water and electricity channels, faking major car accident scenes to block the traffic, and pretending to be a hit-and-run scene to scare away passers-by who want to enter.
——Even if someone is lucky enough to avoid it all, there is actually an illusionist on standby inside, who can ensure that you will walk out the same way you walked in.
What should we do if martial law is imposed?
If the gardener thinks: "You are not allowed to enter here, then eat somewhere else ┓( ` )┏
However, before she could think it through, Rokudo Mukuro snapped his fingers and said, "Do you want to come with me? If you come with me, I guarantee you'll be able to get in."
Yuanzi rolled her eyes again, unabashedly. "I went there to improve the Money Tree's favorability, not to eat. If I can get in but the Money Tree can't, isn't it all in vain?"
Rokudo Mukuro put down his teacup and stood up. He stopped in front of Sonoko and lowered his head, forehead to forehead, coaxing her softly: "Sonoko, just tell me if you want to go. If you do, just ask me. I promise that you and your cash cow can meet at the most suitable place, and there will be no inconvenience on the way."
——She cried so pitifully and cutely in the dream, but during the day, it was so difficult to even chat with her, let alone act coquettishly.
Suzuki Sonoko lowered her head and thought about it, then agreed without hesitation.
"Oh, please."
Rokudo Mukuro stood up straight, rubbing his chin thoughtfully: "Why don't I feel any sense of accomplishment at all..."
But it’s okay. It takes an hour to get to Bingsheng, and at least they can sit in the same car during this hour.
So the two of them walked out of the gate together. Rokudo Mukuro took the communicator given to him by the Golden Lion of Vongola, quickly recorded the license plate numbers of the two cars, and sent them to Arcobaleno who was far away in Namimori.
[I'll come by car. Arcobaleno, please remember to let me in.]
Reborn frowned.
Two?
Because I have companions~
Reborn was right in his thoughts. Chigusa Kakimoto and Inujou Kijima were still at large. Rokudo Mukuro was able to be captured by the Avengers in order to allow these two to escape, so he must have taken it very seriously.
So he passed the data to Cherbero and the security consultant, ensuring that both the inner and outer security circles gave way to the two vehicles.
Rokudo Mukuro put down his phone and showed off to Suzuki Sonoko, who was sitting next to him. "That's all right."
An hour later, serve with bamboo sushi.
The shop was closed and the lanterns at the entrance were out.
——Because his own son went out to fight, although Yamamoto Dad firmly believed that "a man should walk his own chosen path", he was still worried about his child. So since the Ring War, Take Sushi has been open for one to half a day depending on the boss's mood, and closed on time at 5 pm.
Standing at the door, Sonoko sighed that it was all in vain to ask Rokudo Mukuro for help today, then said, "I'll call the driver who's going to pick up Yukihira and have him drive directly to another place to wait for us."
As a result, the driver on the other side answered the phone and said that they had entered the area of Namimori Town.
"But the streets here are very complicated, and there are several roadblocks. It seems that it is not easy to drive..."
After Sonoko hung up the phone, she asked Rokudo Mukuro seriously, "What on earth is going on?"
Rokudo Mukuro sighed and explained, "There's a slight problem with my estimate, but it's not serious."
According to Rokudo Mukuro's idea, the Vongola martial law was just because they didn't want to be disturbed by irrelevant people. The normal people in Namimori Town still had to live, and Cerbero's appearance was just to ensure fairness.
But looking at the situation today, it seems more like he is on guard against something all the time rather than not wanting to be discovered by ordinary people.
I just don't know if Cerbero did this to prevent the outside consultant from colluding on behalf of his son, or simply to prevent the inside consultant from contacting the Vongola headquarters in Italy.
Ah, why do I smell a conspiracy for no apparent reason?
However, once we got in, it was definitely impossible to get out of this encirclement.
——It is the current Heiming, which is almost a maze with all the roads and paths blocked. Only when Cherbero opens a "door" can the car move forward a distance.
Since these two vehicles were reported by Rokudo Mukuro, Cerberone's default destination was the location where the Mist Guardian battle would be held tonight, so the only open road left for them was the one from outside Namimori Town to Namimori Gymnasium.
If the car drives to a place where it shouldn't be, there will inevitably be a roadblock or accident ahead, forcing him to turn around.
In fact, after discovering this abnormality, Rokudo Mukuro became a little excited. Although he agreed to be the Guardian of the Mist of Vongola, he still hated the Mafia in essence. Even though he liked Sawada Tsunayoshi, when he saw the Mafia fighting each other, he just felt an unprecedented desire to watch the show.
"Hey, Sonoko," the excited illusionist asked her with a smile, "Do you want to see a good show?"
"In no mood."
If something goes wrong, it means there is danger. Suzuki Sonoko has never liked getting involved in muddy waters. "I'm here to bond with Soma Yukihira. I'm not in the mood for a spectacle."
Rokudo Mukuro was blocked by her and changed the question.
"That's all," he said good-naturedly. "Just take me to my destination first. Once I'm done with my business, today's curfew will be lifted. Then we can leave with the money-making tree."
Sonoko had originally planned to call for a helicopter, but now she and Yukihira were walking on two separate routes, so there was no way they could meet up. It wasn't impossible for them to wait at their destination...
"Are you sure there's no danger?"
She asked still a little uncertainly.
"Of course not," the world's best illusionist smiled and told her, "I'm Sonoko's Shikigami. Even if your guardian deity and protective artifacts are not around, I will definitely protect you~"
In response to this question, Sonoko simply puffed her cheeks unhappily and got back into the car.
So the vehicle changed lanes and followed the clear road towards the Heisheng Gymnasium.
At this time on the battlefield, because the Mist Guardian of Vongola did not come, the young men who were still studying at Namimori Junior High School were scratching their heads.
Although Varian's men came, they didn't speak and occupied a corner of the venue. Their presence and oppression were equally strong.
In order to construct the battlefield, more than half of the stadium's walls were demolished and the roof was gone. From a distance, it looked like an open-air arena.
On the high platform on one side of the Colosseum, Varian's leader XANXUS sat on a large and gorgeous chair that was brought from somewhere, staring blankly at an old canvas in his hand with an inexplicable expression.
Although it was quite far away, Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly felt that the canvas... seemed a little familiar.
He poked his tutor's calf and said, "Reborn, do you think XANXUS is holding it like Lan Shou's canvas?"
Reborn, who was sitting on his shoulder, silently adjusted the brim of his hat.
Like shit, that's what it is!
——This painting was only given to the leader of our spies. It turns out that Cerberus was sent by the enemy!
Before the battle started, Wu Shou still hadn't arrived, and the two sides were in a stalemate. XANXUS, who had been silent all the time, threw the canvas to the ground.
The man, who had been silent like a sleeping lion for several days, looked around the room and finally fixed his gaze on the baby.
He looked at Reborn, sneered a few times, and began to mock Sawada Tsunayoshi.
"He looks weak, but he has a lot of brains."
Sawada Tsunayoshi was confused as he was ridiculed for no reason.
Reborn pressed the brim of his hat again.
He seemed to know what XANXUS had misunderstood...
XANXUS's memories and emotions were still stuck in the time before he was frozen. That Miss Suzuki was the silly cat he carried in a basket. Never mind whether he liked her or not, she was at least his, the fiancée that the ninth-generation heir deserved.
The fact that he would attach importance to Suzuki Sonoko means that after he saw that thing, his first reaction would definitely be that someone here wanted to capture that lady to threaten him.
But as mentioned before, stupid Tsuna is already competing with him for the position of heir. It is also revealed that these two people [Sonoko and the first generation] were destined to get married and have children in their previous lives, and they are destined to meet again in this life -
——Even if stupid Tsuna can defeat the murderous XANXUS, he may not be able to defeat XANXUS whose anger value is twice as high.
Let’s just forget about past and present lives.
Reborn released the portrait. Although stopping Suzuki Sonoko was his primary goal, he could also investigate the traitor at the same time. Because he had considered the problem of being exposed, he also prepared a second plan to deal with the exposure.
When Naruto Gokudera heard him mocking his tenth generation, he immediately jumped out to refute him: "Who allowed you to slander the tenth generation with such words?"
Look, the big devil blinked his bright black eyes, and the second plan popped out by itself.
XANXUS looked down at the gray-haired boy as if condescendingly. His face was full of murderous intent, and Mukuro was so frightened that he unconsciously took half a step back. Tsuna subconsciously stepped forward and blocked Mukuro's attack with his side.
The next second, XANXUS turned his eyes back as if he was still asleep, staring at the old canvas for a long time with an expressionless face.
The painting could be considered a full-length portrait. The silly cat in his memory was three sizes larger, squatting in front of the wooden stairs with its arms curled up, and a goose-yellow chick squatted on top of its head.
The painting technique was truly outstanding, the expressions and movements were so lifelike, even the squatting posture looked familiar to XANXUS.
Finally, he seemed to have had enough and threw the drawing paper to the ground, commenting objectively: "It's better than when I was a kid."
These words, which seemed like a compliment, made Yusi raise his eyebrows.
As a big name in the piano world with strong artistic talent, Junto Mukudera has always been very confident in his artistic attainments. Even though he was a painter and not a piano player in his previous life, it does not prevent him from being proud of his high-end skills that have been passed down for two lifetimes, as well as the level of his paintings produced in his previous life.
Mukudera Junto, who had consciously accepted that he was a reincarnated body, snorted in a haughty voice, "Don't you even look at who drew this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a fierce murderous aura suddenly rushed in front of him.
——When Cerbero took control of the Vongola security circle and handed this painting to XANXUS, Lusilia once said that this painting contained the heart and it was obvious that it took a long time to paint. However, it did not look like a sketch, and it should be a painting from imagination.
XANXUS looked at the painting with a cold expression, and thought almost ridiculously: Look, such a spoiled little thing is now being noticed by others.
Reborn sensed the murderous intent and curled his lips unsympathetically.
Yes, I would rather be treated as an attempted kidnapping than let XANXUS know about the complicated Shura field in my previous life.
However, rather than being treated as a kidnapping attempt, it is better to classify this kind of painting as a personal hobby (desired but unattainable) of a family member (Jigokudera Junto).
At the very least, XANXUS will feel a little superior and will despise these little brats even more.
Sure enough, upon hearing Mukudera's admission, Bell, who was still wrapped in bandages, said in exaggerated surprise: "Wow, it turns out you were the one who secretly drew? Pervert!"
——Because the first generation of Gatling, Ranshou, was speculated by Shamal to be the loser in the emotional war, he began to persistently use a large collection of various tragic words to compile a tortuous and bizarre history of emotional setbacks for Ranshou.
Xia Maer's original intention was to tease Gokudera Junto, who shared a face with the first generation Ranmori, by making fun of his tragic past life.
However, he is a very romantic person, and as he wrote the story, he developed feelings for the love journey of the first generation Ranmori.
It felt like a tragic writer facing the most outstanding character in his work, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was his own son.
However, as a tragic writer, the way he loves his "son" is naturally to make his tragedy more heroic and artistic.
Before, Shamal would occasionally make some spoof jokes to tease Gokudera, but later on, he simply used Ranmori G as a muse to write a love tragedy.
Occasionally, when she was in the mood, she would recite a long poem to express the inner pain of Lan Shou who was unable to get what he wanted.
Because he did have some literary attainments, and he made up stories in a very serious manner, and when he told them it was as if he was performing a drama. Musi had previously thought, "If he dares to make fun of my past life, I will just beat him up," but in the end, after listening to the story, his mind turned into "Wait until he finishes today's chapter, and then I will blow him to death."
Although Gokudera Junto accepted his past life's romantic character (imposed by Shamal) and felt deeply moved when he entered the plot, he was extremely annoyed by others mocking him.
In particular, you should not listen to key words such as "drawing secretly", "peeping", and "trying to get something but can only comfort yourself".
As soon as Bell said this, Gokudera Junto exploded instantly.
"Who are you talking about who can't get what he wants and can only rely on painting to comfort me?!"
Seeing that he was as irritable as if he wanted to eat someone, the sleeping lion sitting on the chair over there seemed to be in a better mood.
See, just daydreaming.
Tsunayoshi Sawada remembered that he was not allowed to fight privately, and subconsciously wanted to go to Rajukokuji. As a result, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, which made him see black. When he came to his senses, he had fallen head over heels to the ground, and he felt a big bump on the back of his head.
The young boss went to see his tutor with great sorrow.
——Reborn, why did you hit me for no reason?!
The Great Devil tilted his head calmly, and a bubble representing his sleep suddenly appeared on his nose.
Of course, it's because he thinks it's a good thing that Yuji has acknowledged this matter~
Even if Bell hadn't said this just now, Reborn could have made Gokudera jump out with just one interjection.
Objective needs are one thing, and he wants to watch a show...
Maybe it can be considered another aspect.
After all, Mukuro seemed quite happy when he was listening to "Rashimaru's Love Tragedy Theater".
Five meters away, Yu Si was still arguing with Varian's men. The more they argued, the angrier he became.
"That woman just has no taste. How could I be unworthy of her? It's her loss if she doesn't like me. Who says you can't get what you want? If she sincerely admits her mistake and apologizes to me, admitting her lack of vision, I might be able to get along with her for a while!"
The tone of this is a bit like someone trying to pull someone down out of frustration.
Yamamoto Takeshi felt a little uncomfortable with what Mukuro said about Sonoko, and subconsciously opened his mouth to refute, but he suddenly felt a chill in his ears, Len's tail grew long, and Reborn raised the long stick and slowly shook it at him.
If Reborn's speculation was correct, if Yamamoto had opened his mouth just now, he would probably have said, "Sonoko-san would never say that. She only remembers me in her life and has no memory of you, Gokudera."
——He just wanted to watch a little show to cheer himself up. Isn’t it courting death to reveal this kind of information?
According to the script, after the dancing, it's almost time for the fight.
Reborn originally thought that the fight would be foolproof. As long as the things about the past and present lives were not exposed, Miss Suzuki did not appear, and she called out "Ugetsu" to Yamamoto in a daze, they could wait until the Ring War was over and then they could catch that person from the past life and make as much trouble as they wanted!
As a result, he misjudged XANXUS's reaction.
In the eyes of Leader Varian, although the stupid cat was really stupid, it was still his cat after all. When everyone in the world, including himself, felt that he might not be worthy of the Vongola, she meowed at him a few times.
Just based on those few words of hers, not to mention that XANXUS thinks she deserves a beating when she grows up (I will never admit that her cuteness has been violated), even if she is not good-looking when she grows up, XANXUS is still planning to marry her!
That was the woman destined to be the tenth generation of the Vongola family!
He didn't even despise it, but this kid is looking for death by despising the stupid cat.
The angry lion burst out with fierce murderous intent. Everyone felt danger. The super-intuitive MAX Tenth Generation Vongola felt that his nerve endings were about to run away from home!
Reborn hit him angrily: "Stupid Tsuna, your performance is too disappointing."
Tsunayoshi sniffed: "That's not what I'm crying about..."
"What is that?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "XANXUS is so angry, maybe he really likes that portrait?"
Reborn thought to himself, you're thinking too much. XANXUS has such a bad temper. Does he look like someone you'd fall in love with at first sight just by looking at a portrait?
"That's his wife, to whom he was engaged when he was seven."
"ha?"
The Great Devil smiled and said, "Why do you think I haven't hit Yusi yet after he's been jumping around for so long? Of course, it's to distract him."
"No," Sawada-kun, the spit-roasting actor, swallowed his saliva: "Why... do you want to divert attention?"
Under Sawada Tsunayoshi's trembling gaze, the Great Demon King dropped a bombshell: "Because Suzuki Sonoko is temporarily engaged to the son of the Nineth Generation, logically speaking, this engagement of the Suzuki family is actually for the heir of the Vongola family. Strictly speaking, Xanxus is not yet an heir."
——Because you are also an heir.
He looked at his stupid apprentice with his big eyes of satisfaction.
The stupid disciple felt as if his worldview was shattered, and then he suddenly calmed down strangely.
Reborn was disappointed that he didn't see the good show.
"What's wrong?"
"If Suzuki Sonoko is really the reincarnation of my great-great-great-great-grandmother, I actually think it would be better to let Yamamoto or Gokudera take over my great-great-great-grandfather's position instead of letting XANXUS..."
It turns out that there is no harm without comparison.
Reborn shook his head. This child was still too naive.
"Actually, according to the setting in TV dramas where past lives reunite, since you're very likely the reincarnation of your great-great-great-grandfather, it would be best for you to take on this responsibility yourself."
He smiled adorably, "It just so happens that the Suzuki family also wanted to choose the next heir of the Vongola family as their son-in-law!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi: [horrified.jpg]
"Just kidding."
The Great Devil, who had appreciated the satisfied expression, turned his head calmly and said, "Something happened in the Suzuki family before. Suzuki Sonoko is now the legitimate heir. Only she can marry, no one else can marry her."
"Come to think of it, if XANXUS loses, you can definitely marry him to the Suzuki family."
wrong.
The Great Demon King was racing against time to strike his foolish apprentice: "In fact, if you lose, you don't have to worry about being killed by XANXUS. With a little bit of maneuvering, you can still help Vongola do other things within your ability."
"For example, marrying Miss Suzuki Sonoko as a representative of the marriage alliance."
Tsunayoshi Sawada looked at his teacher with despair, looked at the jumping Gokudera with despair, looked at Yamamoto who seemed to want to interrupt at any time, and XANXUS who was like a dark cloud covering the city and seemed to be able to scare children to tears at any minute.
Oh God, I beg you.
The honest and simple young man Sawada Tsunayoshi prayed: "Let that inexplicable Kirimori come quickly! Isn't it better for everyone to go their own way after the fight?"
God thought for a moment and sensed that the child he was praying for was indeed a good person.
So he nodded and fulfilled Sawada Tsunayoshi's wish.
Following a burst of honking, a stretched car stopped at the entrance of the gymnasium. The polished rear door opened and a man named Liu Dao Hai walked out.
Sawada Tsunayoshi: Oh my God, are you kidding me?
Rokudo Mukuro smiled slightly, stepped aside, and bent down to take out a hat from the carriage.
Women's.
Three seconds later, another leg stretched out from the back seat.
The tenth generation leader of the Vongola breathed a sigh of relief. There was someone better - compared to Kirimori, who was a cross-dresser who liked lace hats, it was not so difficult to accept that he showed his love to his girlfriend at the fog battle scene.
The girl who came out of the car was wearing a bright windbreaker with a very intricate cut, which looked subtly formal [after all, she was here to meet the cash cow and show respect to him]. Her long hair was carefully tied with a ribbon and a barely visible knot.
When she raised her head, the drooping tail end swayed along with it, which looked strangely beautiful.
Scientific research shows that female hormones have the ability to relax the atmosphere, especially when a group of male animals are preparing to fight. Even though he was almost shocked that his Kirimori was a pervert, Tsunayoshi Sawada still felt a certain degree of relief and gratitude towards this delicate and soft-looking young lady.
The next second, the young lady raised her head.
Sawada Tsunayoshi: ...
Sawada Tsunayoshi: Please return my gratitude to me!
——Where is the relaxed atmosphere for women?
——It was a powder keg just now, isn’t this just pouring oil on the keg?
Ms. Suzuki, who was working as a worker, jumped twice on the spot and lowered her head to adjust her cuffs.
Rokudo Mukuro followed closely behind, closed the car door like a gentleman, stood sideways behind her, and looked down at the girl with a magical aura that made Tsunayoshi Sawada couldn't help but call her Yabai. Then he naturally raised his wrist and pressed the big lady's hat he had been holding on her head.
Finally, he smoothed the hair around her ears.
Help! The murderous aura that suddenly came from behind is so strong that I don’t even want to look back!
As a result, the first person to react was not X, whose aura seemed to want to eat people, but he had already accepted the fact that he was dumped. He just couldn't understand why this woman didn't choose him, Gokudera Junto, in her previous life.
"Hello!"
He pushed his way to the front row aggressively, as if he had already filtered Rokudo Mukuro out of his sight: "You woman!"
The only real woman at the scene looked up.
In Xia Maer's "One Hundred Tragic Love Stories of Ranmori", Ranmori's character is always one of deep love and heartbreak (after all, he is the author's own son), while the woman who caused him heartbreak and made him leave her (according to the setting, she is Miss Suzuki Sonoko's previous life) is sometimes good and sometimes bad.
Sometimes she is the image of a traditional Japanese beauty, weak and helpless, strong inside but lacking in independent thinking. So after much hesitation, she married the first generation who was the most determined in pursuing her.
Lan Shou lost his love due to a moment of carelessness.
Sometimes she is a villainous type, who is childhood sweethearts with Amemori, but later seduces two other people in succession, plays with everyone's feelings and makes everyone suffer together, and finally marries the first generation who chooses to tolerate her nature.
Lan Shou was inexplicably seduced and then dumped, and from then on there was only her in his life.
Anyway, in Shamal's story, there are various opportunities for Gokudera and Suzuki Sonoko to fall in love, various ways of getting along, but also various ways of breaking up and missing out due to coincidences.
Xia Maer took the position that Ran Shou must break up tragically, and insisted on letting her marry the first generation and have children according to history, which made Mukudera Junren a little confused.
——I’m such a good person, how can you not like me?
——I like you so much, how can you be so cruel to hurt me over and over again?
If you just listen to the story, it may not feel real, but everyone looks the same now as they did in their previous life, so it's so easy to get into the story!
Suzuki Sonoko looked at the fierce, gray-haired boy in front of her, her face filled with bewilderment.
"Let me ask you something," he said, almost wanting to pull Sonoko's wrist. Rokudo Mukuro's trident suddenly appeared and hit her wrist perfectly. However, he persisted, insisting on asking, "Why didn't you choose me?"
"Um?"
Well, it's not fun. There was a muffled sound from the ground at the foot of the prison temple, and the cracked sand and rocks suddenly stirred up a cloud of mist.
Sonoko's eyes were blocked by Rokudo Mukuro. When she came back to her senses from the flying dust, she found a big hole one meter away from her feet, as if it had been blasted by a mortar.
She looked up in the direction of the sound and saw a tall figure on a high platform not far away.
The man seemed to have a scar on his face, and his expression was ferocious to the point of being scary. When he opened his eyes, he looked as sharp as a lion waking up from sleep. At this moment, his arm was slightly bent, and smoke was still coming out of the red muzzle of the gun.
Suzuki Sonoko: “…”
Suzuki Sonoko didn't recognize who this person was. What she was thinking was: Damn, this person wants to kill me!
She quickly took a step back, stood behind her shikigami, and gently pulled Rokudo Mukuro's sleeve.
——Although I have always disliked you, the time has come for you to play your role. After all, I gave birth to your soul, so please save my body!
As she dodged sideways, Gokudera Junto's brows deepened. Yamamoto Takeshi had been silent all the time, but now he took two steps forward and stood between Varian and Suzuki Sonoko's straight-line range.
However, Mr. Varian, who was standing on the high platform with a gun in his hand, didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what happened just now. He just became more and more unhappy because the gray-haired boy was getting closer to her.
"come over."
The man's voice was not loud, but it had an unexpected presence.
Yuanzi subconsciously raised her head.
Not far away, the lion-like man raised a hand to her and made a sound of impatience but a familiar expression to her.
"I told you to come here quickly, why are you standing there like an idiot?"
This sentence is said in Italian.
Suzuki Sonoko felt as if her mind was opened up. Looking at his much more mature face, her eyes suddenly widened.
Because of this expression, XANXUS felt much more satisfied.
Although I'm still as slow as when I was a kid...
Yuanzi has a bad memory, but she is just not loyal. If she is prompted, she can still remember some things. When she looked at the familiar figure, the first thing she recalled was the beautiful ring she had been thinking about for several years.
——Otherwise, why did the thing in Chrom's hand look familiar to her?
She thought the most beautiful thing back then was the fog ring!
Because she remembered something, Suzuki Sonoko was not afraid anymore. Although she didn't remember the name, in her memory, this person was vicious from beginning to end, with great lethality in various ways, but he would never pose a danger to her.
So she unconsciously walked out from behind Rokudo Mukuro, and as she walked, she raised her arm thoughtfully as if she wanted to greet him from a distance like when they were children.
He had only taken a few meters when his other wrist was grabbed by Mukudera Junto, who suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Why are you so mad? Just because he asked you to go over, you went over?"
No matter whether Junto Mukudera is immersed in the role or has psychological transference, or whether he likes this person or not, when the person opposite is a dangerous person like Varian, Junto Mukudera will definitely not let her go over and seek death.
Even if it’s a stranger, it’s not okay, let alone this guy!
Suzuki Sonoko turned around and twisted her arms subconsciously.
Jūdera Junto became even more aggressive: "How can you be so ungrateful, woman?!"
"It was Gokudera who hurt Sonoko."
Yamamoto Takeshi was still standing at the necessary viewpoint of the straight line, on guard against targeted bursts of fire. He turned back and said disapprovingly, "We're very powerful, but Sonoko is just an ordinary person. If Gokudera isn't careful, she'll get hurt."
He is observant, considerate in his actions, his eyes are subtle but caring, and his tone is serious but gentle.
——This guy’s energy is so full that it’s almost overflowing.
Seeing that Yamamoto was about to join the battle, Sawada Tsunayoshi noticed that the barrel of XANXUS seemed to be turning red again.
Reborn sighed. Although it was different from the worst case scenario he had imagined, it was very close. In fact, the worst case scenario was just this.
Since it has come to this, then whatever past and present lives are exposed may as well be exposed...
To be honest, although the situation feels a bit tricky, this scene doesn't seem to be a loss.
So, he couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or satisfied, and he kicked his stupid apprentice on the back of the head: "Tsuna, as the boss, you should jump out and stop the emergency."
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "...I can't do it.jpg"
Reborn sighed, "Didn't you just say: Instead of letting them fight, it's better to take the position of your previous life?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi weakly argued: "What I mean is... compared to letting XANXUS come..."
Reborn's face was cold, and his eyes slanted: "That's right, now there is also the option of Rokudo Mukuro. Speaking of which, can you accept him?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi: ...
——Can I choose to commit suicide?
The big devil tilted his head cutely: What do you think?
In the blink of an eye, just as the future tenth generation leader of Vongola was about to jump into the standing circle, a second whistle suddenly sounded at the intersection.
The same black car, the same one that looks super expensive.
The back door of the car opened with a click, and a red-haired boy in a T-shirt walked out.
Although it was a T-shirt, it was clean, neat and slim-fitting. His hairstyle was not very particular, but he wore an exquisite headband. His cuffs were slightly rolled up, revealing a clean bandage.
——How should I put it? Although he is not the kind of handsome that is particularly deliberate, his whole body is filled with the male dressing rules for dating strategies provided in the youth magazine "One Hundred Little Tricks for Dating Your Girlfriend".
Tsunayoshi Sawada: Very good, after pouring oil on the explosive barrel, the lighter also appeared!
Soma Yukihira, who had slept all the way in the car, looked at this inexplicable scene, exclaimed in confusion, and turned to look at the only person he knew in the crowd.
Ah, found it.
Then Sawada Tsunayoshi heard him naturally ask: "Hey, Sonoko."
"Didn't we agree to meet up for dinner? Why are you suddenly driving here?"
The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became tense.
The red-haired man was still completely unaware of this. He scratched the back of his head, ignoring the others quite naturally. He seemed troubled and said, "We have limited opportunities for vacation. We were originally supposed to meet in the kitchen once a week, but the field training is about to start soon, so we may not be able to see each other for the next two weeks..."
As he muttered intermittently, Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't help but want to give him a thumbs up.
Looking at the girl who was stuck in the middle of the field and might be the reincarnation of his wife in his previous life and his great-great-great-grandmother in this life, Tsunayoshi Sawada covered his face with his hands, unable to bear to look at her.
——He was still worried about whether he should be entangled in the Shura field of his previous life after reincarnation.
——It’s a good thing that he had seriously considered whether Yamamoto Gokudera or X was more suitable to take over his position in his previous life and renew his relationship with his great-great-great-grandmother.
Tsunayoshi Sawada glanced at Soma Yukihira through the gaps between his fingers.
——His great-great-great-grandmother clearly brought her CP with her in this life!
The author has something to say: This update is the 10,000 promised on the 1st and the 5,000 promised on the 2nd. The remaining 3,000 is considered as compensation for the one-day break. The update on the 3rd will be in the early morning of the 4th (after midnight).
The ultimate goal of the Ring War is for the loser to marry Suzuki Sonoko.
Reborn was on guard for several days, but his own mist guard was a guide O(∩_∩)O
It was destined that Sonoko would be unlucky in marriage from a very young age. X's father was not considered a husband at that time. However, being frozen in ice was both a plot point and a revenge for the halo of the God of Fortune.
Reborn's bad taste fills the second half, but the setting of the big devil in my opinion is so unfathomable. He plays memes when he wants to, watches the show when he wants to, and squeezes people when he wants to, all depending on his mood.
I've said before that daily updates have become a flag, but this is the article I wrote to cure my writing problem. The outline has been written, and who will appear and when has been planned. Even if I don't have the passion, I can still write to the end. Logically speaking, my update volume is not small, just 18,000 words. Authors with shorter posts can update for six days with 3,000 words a day. I know that my character is a bit of a problem, but at least it's not that bad in this area. So, I would like to ask those who stop updating for a day (especially since I will compensate them) and leave messages saying that they are in a bad state to take a look at the update time of the web version, and don't leave messages that make me anxious and want to quit the game.
Finally, as usual, I would like to ask for a comment. This is the first time I have said so much nonsense that has nothing to do with the content of the article. Please forgive me.
