Chapter 368: The natural player "Simon's family...
"That red-haired child from the Simon family looks familiar." When placing the gift, a trace of thought flashed in Elena's eyes, and she grabbed the black-haired girl's arm.
"Huh? Are you talking about Gu Li Yan Zhen?"
"Well, I was a little surprised when I first heard about the Simon family... but when I saw that face and those unique eyes, I understood." Elena looked up slightly, a hint of reminiscence in her eyes. "There's no doubt about it. That child is a descendant of Simon Cozart."
The pattern on the pupil that resembles a four-pointed star is a rare and unique mark.
"What a coincidence! On the eve of the Vongola Succession Ceremony, Simon's descendants would actually meet Gitto's descendants in this way..." Thinking of what Gitto had said to her earlier, Elena frowned slightly and said slowly, "This is truly too much of a coincidence."
"Simon Cozart?" The player noticed the unfamiliar name and asked, "Who is he?"
"I have a similar question." Reborn, who appeared in this small room at some point, spoke up, without surprising the player Elena.
"It's Reborn—"
"Ciaos, Aurora, and... Miss Elena." Reborn took off his hat and gestured, his small body hiding great elegance.
The player used the same trick again and picked up Reborn again - this time from the ground.
"I wonder if Miss Elena could tell me something about the Simon family?" Reborn asked. "Because Tsuna is about to become the tenth generation leader of the Vongola family, many assassins have appeared around. Although the Simon family has been invited by the ninth generation leader, they have to be on guard for the sake of caution."
"As for me, I'm more curious about that Kori Enma." The player raised his hand. "I feel like his character overlaps with Tsunayoshi-kun's loser character."
"Simon Cozart is the first generation leader of the Simon family. He and Gitto share the same ideals and interests. They are steadfast friends and unbreakable allies."
Elena explained, "I once heard Gitto say that when he first came up with the idea of establishing a self-defense group to protect the town, it was Simon's unwavering belief that he had the leadership to organize everyone to resist, which gave him his initial confidence."
"There is actually such a relationship... It seems that things are not that simple." Reborn touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
"The Simon family also possesses a powerful force comparable to the Vongola ring. Logically speaking, it shouldn't decline so quickly. Although I don't know what happened in these years, but..." Elena nodded, agreeing with Reborn's opinion.
"But I didn't sense any obvious power fluctuations from them." The player held his chin. "Could it be that they were lost, or sealed?"
"That's not very clear." Elena shook her head, "At least..."
At least when she was still alive, the Simon family and the Vongola family still maintained a friendly relationship...
"No matter what, it at least proves that the Simon family's affairs are not that simple." Thinking of the unusual fluctuations he felt from Gu Li Yan Zhen not long ago, Reborn frowned, "Perhaps observing closely would be a good choice..."
"Just observe closely..." The player touched his chin thoughtfully.
It’s a good idea indeed.
…
…
While the three of them were hiding in the small room and talking secretly, at the same time—
"So what should we do now..." Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at the scene in front of him and felt that the atmosphere in the room was so weird that it was suffocating.
After Aurora left, no one spoke. It felt so awkward... Ahhh! Why did Reborn invite the Simon family over?
"Please don't mind us, Tsunayoshi-kun." Dazai Osamu raised his lips slightly, looking at the strange atmosphere between the Simon family and the Vongola family, and said with interest, "After all, we are only following the leader's request to come to visit Lady Nana, who has always taken good care of her. We are not very interested in the conflict between you and the Simon family~"
Nakahara Chuuya glanced at Dazai Osamu who responded and had no objection to what he said.
"Don't worry, Tenth Generation, leave this little problem to me, Hayato Gokudera!" Hayato Gokudera patted his chest and said confidently.
"What? Wait, Mukudera..." Before Sawada Tsunayoshi could react, he saw Mukudera Hayato walk up, coughed twice, and said solemnly, "Since Aurora hasn't come yet, let's deal with what happened just now!"
"Although I only just learned about the Vongola Succession Ceremony...I'm sorry, Tenth Daemon, as your right-hand man, I've been remiss in my duty!"
Gokudera Hayato bowed very vigorously to express his apology, and then continued, "But the inheritance ceremony is our common goal, so in order to ensure the safety of the tenth generation, we Vongola and Simon should work together and form a team to guard the activity area!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi opened his mouth wide: "Wha-what?"
As expected of Hayato Gokudera, who possesses extremely high IQ, under everyone's surprised gaze, he raised his chin and talked incessantly about the defense plan he had formulated after the tenth generation was attacked.
"No... this isn't necessary, right? Gokudera?" Hearing this, Sawada Tsunayoshi's mouth twitched even more as he tried to stop her. "Putting everything else aside, isn't this a bit too much of a fuss?"
"You can't say that—"
Nakahara Chuuya immediately looked in the direction of the sound. After seeing that his leader was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief without any expression, and immediately returned to his previous calm expression.
The player and Elena sat down in the area designated as the Port Mafia, swigging down a sip of cooled tea. She hadn't drunk any water during the previous discussion, trying to show she'd matured. She was actually quite thirsty.
"Anyway, it's fine at other times. The Vongola garrison is more than enough to hold off the enemy. But lately, we should focus on our personal safety," the player said in a mature tone. "These days, there are a lot of people taking advantage of troubled times."
"The gangster group you encountered earlier is an example of this."
"You mean... will there be anyone else?" Sawada Tsunayoshi asked subconsciously, but his slightly twinkling eyes had already given the answer.
What else?
The player spread his hands.
"It's indeed a good idea." Reborn said that the suggestion proposed by Yusi was indeed very good. It just so happened that he needed to observe the people of the Simon family nearby, killing two birds with one stone.
"I just don't know what the Simon family thinks?"
Gu Liyanzhen: "..."
Seeing Guli Yanzhen's silence, Suzuki Edelhait pondered for a moment and said, "As you can see, not all of our family members have arrived here. We need more time to discuss with those who haven't arrived yet."
"Tomorrow, we will give an answer to this matter."
"I'll take my leave today."
After saying this, Suzuki Edelhayt and a group of people from the Simon family left in a hurry, without revealing the reason why they agreed to come to the Sawada family, which made the people who stayed behind look at each other in confusion.
"He's really decisive and efficient. This guy is indeed the boss of the Simon family." Gokudera Hayato frowned. "And he's even challenging that guy Hibari..."
"Well, that's not necessarily true." The player and Elena looked at each other, and became more certain of their previous guess.
Although the Simon family seems to be controlled by the most powerful Suzuki Edelhait, she will still ask for Guli Yanzhen's opinion when making decisions. This means that at critical moments, the one who can really make the decision is still Guli Yanzhen - he is the real leader of the Simon family.
"Stop trying to tear me down, Aurora!"
"You, be nicer to our leader!"
"ha?"
"What? You dare to do it but not take responsibility?"
Gokudera Hayato and Nakahara Chuuya, who stood up and slammed the table, glared at each other.
“Wait a minute! Chuuya…”
"Calm down, Gokudera!"
The player grabbed Nakahara Chuuya's sleeve, glanced at the silver-haired boy, and suddenly shouted, "It's just a mere raindrop that's insulting. I don't really take his words seriously!"
"After all, he just loves yelling at me!"
"What?!"
"Look, you're anxious again!"
"I'm not in a hurry!"
"I'd be surprised if I wasn't anxious!"
"Aurora, stop adding fuel to the fire!" Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at Hayato Gokudera and Aurora who suddenly started cursing at each other again, sighed, and covered his face helplessly, "Hey, I'm obviously used to this kind of thing... No no no! I don't want to get used to this kind of thing!"
Zhongyuan Zhongye quickly calmed down and touched his nose embarrassedly. In the past, when negotiating with the hostile families, there were occasionally some ignorant guys who disliked their leader and belittled him wantonly, which caused him to form a conditioned reflex and forget that these people were the leader's friends and allies.
"I'm sorry, I was impulsive." He took off his hat and saluted, admitting his mistake frankly.
"You really have a good subordinate, Aurora." Reborn looked at Chuuya Nakahara and showed regret again.
He's powerful, full of potential, able to advance and retreat, and so loyal. Although he's still green, he's indeed a good seedling...
"I told you not to steal my girl! Don't even think about it!" the player shouted.
————————
After dinner, the player announced his desire to stay at the Sawada family, which naturally led to a flurry of exclamations.
Only Nana Sawada expressed her warm welcome.
"I'll go clean up your room Chiyo~" As she said that, she hummed a song and left the living room.
"I want to live here—" the player said again, expressing his thoughts bluntly, "I'm very interested in the Simon family, and... it would be even better if I could meet all of them."
If the power that Elena described really existed, then there might be some reaction when the seven people appeared at the same time.
"Isn't the place where you live now very close to my home?" Sawada Tsunayoshi asked, and then couldn't help but say, "Only one street away, right?"
Why do you have to live in his house?
"Of course, the closer we observe, the better!" the player said matter-of-factly. "Not only that, but Elena will be joining me, too."
"Don't worry, Tsunayoshi-kun, we have our own rations and we can help with the work."
"In that case... in order to protect the leader's safety, I'll leave it to Sawada-kun." Nakahara Chuuya said in a deep voice.
Still coming? My house is really full!
Tsunayoshi Sawada felt that the population of his family had increased dramatically during this period, just like the human population had grown rapidly.
He couldn't help but look at the others.
"Ah, Mr. Yoshiichi and I have no such plan. I prefer to find a refreshing suicide posture alone." Dazai Osamu waved his hand and retreated first. Rather than waiting here, he preferred to take the initiative.
"Then I'll take my leave first." Tsugumi Yuichiro, who was still being dragged out, nodded gently and disappeared at the end of the street.
"Teacher Yunyi, you're still such a homebody..."
But he really is super worried about the players! Touching!
Feeling that Yoshiichi Tsugakuni had returned directly to his sword training, the player touched the long sword at his waist with satisfaction and turned to look at Tsunayoshi Sawada.
"Thank you for letting us have a room to sleep in, Tsunayoshi-kun."
"Uh, no..."
"Then we'll go to bed first, good night everyone!"
"Wait a minute, I haven't even agreed yet!"
"Bye-Bye--"
"Hello!"
