Chapter 74: See you again in Namimori Town? Goodbye!
"Really? Why did it suddenly appear? Or did it fall from above..."
He tried several times before he struggled to stand up from the embarrassing position where he had fallen. He rubbed his lower back with his hands and couldn't stop complaining.
"And he said the same thing to the adult Rambo ten years later, calling me 'Vongola' or something..."
Fushimi Kyoji saw him pause, then realized something and looked up suddenly: "No! That smoke just now, could it be a 10-year rocket launcher..."
"Rambo!" Sawada Tsunayoshi immediately thought of the culprit who usually caused trouble like swapping everyone with ten years in the future, and he held his head in frustration. "Did you use the ten-year bazooka again?"
The afro-haired calf following him sucked his fingers noncommittally and blinked his eyes in confusion.
It looked left and right in an unusual state.
Suddenly, Rambo's eyes stopped at the player's face, and he slowed down his finger sucking. He pointed at her and said vaguely, "It was the same day as the stupid Gokudera, next to the stupid Tsuna..."
"Hey, Rambo, stop calling Mukudera and me idiots. It's really rude!" Sawada Tsunayoshi said to Rambo first, then looked back at the player, tentatively sizing her up with a harmless, even weak, look. "So, um, who are you...?"
Even when asking about my identity, my tone was timid and uncertain.
After confirming that the player was not a threat, he immediately relaxed subtly and couldn't help but slump his shoulders.
Ah, this way there will be no confusion between the images of Sawada Tsunayoshi in the two time periods.
The slightly immature Sawada Tsunayoshi in front of him could only be called a teenager, and his words and actions did not reveal the aura of a future mafia leader.
He does not rely on outward display of strength to demonstrate his power, and facing him almost gives people the illusion of being bathed in a spring breeze.
The current Sawada Tsunayoshi obviously does not have the composure that comes from experience, and it is easy to tell that he is the same person in different periods.
The person who was thinking this seemed to recover from the dull pain of the fall, and he couldn't help but gasp, as if he was annoyed at saying something stupid. "...Huh? Could it be that... you still don't recognize me?"
He found a reason to convince himself and immediately let down his guard... This shows that it is indeed the same person.
"Tenth generation!" A concerned shout accompanied by hurried footsteps, a familiar figure rushed straight towards Sawada Tsunayoshi.
"Are you okay?" Seeing the situation from afar, Hayato Gokudera rushed over as fast as he could to check on Tsunayoshi Sawada's safety.
Sawada Tsunayoshi smiled bitterly: "...Uh, it should be fine now."
As he said this, he couldn't help but look at the player who fell on him. Just one glance, and immediately, Hayato Gokudera, who was always paying attention to his leader, shifted his vigilant gaze to Kyoki Fushimi.
"Tenth generation, please be careful!" He immediately took a defensive posture, spread his arms, and stood in front of Sawada Tsunayoshi.
Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was protected behind him, stuttered for a moment: "Eh? No, Gokudera, it shouldn't be an enemy..."
Gokudera Hayato did not give up his judgment. He turned his head away and explained to Sawada Tsunayoshi: "This guy suddenly appeared. It's very suspicious no matter how you look at it."
She was being stared at with intense hostility, fearing that she would suddenly explode and do something that would be detrimental to Sawada Tsunayoshi.
The same reaction as Gokudera Hayato ten years later in the future.
Should we say they are indeed the same person?
"He really cares about the Vongola, no matter which Mr. Ranmori it is." The player commented fairly.
Gokudera Hayato was visibly stunned, and the words he was about to question the other party were stuck in his throat. He lowered his hands, which were holding the bombs between his fingers, slightly, and then crossed them in front of him the next second: "Huh? Even if you say so, I..."
"Don't be impulsive, calm down..." Sawada Tsunayoshi walked up from behind Gokudera Hayato, separating the two of them. He smiled apologetically at the player who hadn't shown any hostility like Gokudera Hayato throughout the whole process, while crying lasagna tears in his heart. Why on earth did he feel so familiar with this kind of thing...
"...Yes, Tenth Generation." Even though he was reluctant, Mr. Ranmori still obediently put the bomb away.
Noticing the player was watching, he uttered an ambiguous 'hum' through his nose and turned his head away, ignoring her.
"Well, now we can talk calmly."
Looking at the dissatisfaction in Hayato Gokudera's eyes, Tsunayoshi Sawada thought without much hope.
perhaps……?
"That's right, just like the tenth generation asked, hurry up and tell us everything you know!" Hayato Gokudera echoed repeatedly.
Sawada Tsunayoshi: ...Did he ever say anything like that?
"It's more like torture than a normal conversation..." he complained weakly.
The player thought for a moment and asked uncertainly, "Do I have to tell you everything?"
The threat worked!
I'm really thinking about whether to say it or not!
Sawada Tsunayoshi was shocked to find that the other party seemed to hesitate, but soon, he heard her muttering to herself in an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, Gin-senpai, I'm going to betray the Black Organization."
Talking nonsense seriously!
Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't help but frown.
It sounds like a strange organization that was made up casually!
"Hmm... 'Black Organization' is correct, right? Go on." Hayato Gokudera took out his notebook and carefully wrote down the information he heard.
I totally believe it...
"Mukudera, don't believe everything he says. And this guy...eh?" Sawada Tsunayoshi tried to make his own Ranshin sober, and suddenly made a puzzled sound.
"Vongola?"
"Tenth generation, what's wrong?"
Hayato Gokudera seemed to feel a little unhappy when he noticed Tsunayoshi Sawada's reaction at the same time as the other players, but his concern for the leader overwhelmed that subtle feeling.
"Nothing, just..."
The player blinked, and Sawada Tsunayoshi looked over at her.
"?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi hesitated, as if he wasn't sure: "From now on, hasn't it been... more than five minutes?"
"Why……"
He didn't say the rest of the words, but they were clearly written in his eyes.
Why is it that after being hit by the Ten-Year Rocket Launcher, five minutes have passed and the original time has not returned?
Player: Oo
Hayato Gokudera couldn't bear to watch and made a "tsk" sound. He walked close to Rambo, and when the other party bit his fingers and looked up at him, he grabbed the calf's tail with one hand and lifted it upside down.
While reaching his other hand into the other's fluffy afro to search, Gokudera Hayato urged impatiently: "Did you break the ten-year bazooka again, stupid cow! Hurry and take it out!"
"Tail! Lord Rambo's tail is about to break!" During this period, Rambo cried out without restraint and hysterically.
"Gokudera, let Rambo go first, Rambo, don't cry, and..." Sawada Tsunayoshi paused.
he:……
Player: ...
After staring at each other for a while, Sawada Tsunayoshi was the first to look away, with an embarrassed look on his face: "I look so annoyed by the crying child!" He simply covered both ears with his hands...
Fushimi Kyoji did not notice any negative status.
This should mean it's okay?
Maybe it's the normal setting when you select the [Parallel] timeline.
After closing the game panel, Tsunayoshi Sawada has successfully coaxed the crying Rambo. Rambo, who has recovered his spirit, pinches his waist to provoke Hayato Gokudera.
"I think I understand what you're saying now, ten years later." The player said, looking at the two figures, one large and one small. "They have a really good relationship, even though it's hard for outsiders to understand how they get along."
Sawada Tsunayoshi said dryly: "Haha, is that so..." Did he say that?
So, he told the other person this ten years later?
I cautiously glanced at the profiles of the people around me, and I would talk about this topic with my future self. As expected... they are not enemies.
but,
Just one thing...
Sawada Tsunayoshi felt completely weakened: Could it be that ten years later he was still cleaning up the mess made by these two people...
"——" The noise that occurs when debugging the equipment came from the player.
Sawada Tsunayoshi, Gokudera Hayato, and Fushimi Kyoki himself all focused their attention on her.
The player rummaged through the clothes and found a familiar little gadget on the inconspicuous hem.
The bug held between his fingers flickered a faint red light, and a compressed male voice spoke to the player: "...Coordinates lost...Vongola...soon..."
At first, the sound was a blur, the specific content of which could not be discerned. Then, it gradually became clearer, and the person on the other side repeated: "...The Vongola will use the Ten-Year Bazooka to take you back ten years in the future. In the meantime, stay away from dangerous places and wait for the teleportation."
After conveying what he wanted to tell the players, without waiting for Fushimi Kyoji to say a word, the other side immediately cut off the conversation amidst harsh noise.
"The person you're talking to is your companion? Judging from your expression, he probably doesn't know he's been bugged."
Gokudera Hayato raised his eyebrows and said "Ha" mockingly: "The trust between you is just so-so."
"..." Sawada Tsunayoshi didn't say anything, and his face looked as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.
Hayato Gokudera seemed to realize something from Tsunayoshi Sawada's silence and slowly froze.
Listening carefully, although the male voice in the eavesdropping device was severely distorted, it still sounded strangely familiar.
It seems...
——His own voice!
"You mean under surveillance?" The player blinked, not noticing Hayato Gokudera's stiffness, and answered the other's previous question, "I'm used to it.
After all, there is a precedent of Gin openly placing a bug on the player, so it wouldn’t be too surprising to see a similar plot again.
At the beginning of the game, there will be a long row of [Someone's Attention] buffs.
After hearing this, Gokudera Hayato glared and said sharply, "It seems I have to be more wary of you. I feel like you are an extremely dangerous person."
The player pretended not to hear and waved to him: "Goodbye, Mr. Lan Shou from ten years ago."
"I don't trust you yet." Hayato Gokudera tilted his head coolly.
"Goodbye, Vongola."
Ten years ago, Sawada Tsunayoshi looked as helpless as a rabbit being picked up by the ears. He opened and closed his mouth several times, making meaningless sounds: "Ah? Okay, again..."
Bang...
The pink smoke of the Ten Year Bazooka appeared out of nowhere, instantly engulfing the player's figure and disappearing.
The pink smoke dissipated, leaving only him, Gokudera and Rambo there.
"See you later." The farewell was not fully spoken, the last word so soft that it was inaudible.
Did you hear that?
Probably not.
So Sawada Tsunayoshi said it again in his heart.
……goodbye.
"Oh, Tsuna, Gokudera, you're both here.
"Ah, ah..." Sawada Tsunayoshi came back to his senses, "It's Yamamoto..."
"When I was over there, I saw another person." Yamamoto Takeshi looked around and touched the back of his head with one hand. "Ahahaha, was I seeing things?"
"Tsk, he's a very suspicious guy."
"Hmm?" Yamamoto Takeshi turned his head sharply, pretending to search, and finally looked back at Hayato Gokudera, "Where is it?"
"Tsk." Gokudera Hayato turned his head unhappily and answered him in a bad tone, "They've already left."
"Oh, I see."
Undeterred by his negative attitude, he turned his focused gaze towards Sawada Tsunayoshi and said with concern:
"Tsuna, what's wrong? You look very bad."
Sawada Tsunayoshi shook his head slowly.
What's wrong with him?
It was just a slight sense of disappointment, but I didn't expect it to be so profound that Yamamoto could see it at a glance. I really couldn't believe it...
……wrong!
The numbness in his waist, abdomen, and legs turned into severe pain, reminding him of the unbearable degree of pain.
Sawada Tsunayoshi's face couldn't help but twist, and he realized belatedly the pain that he had previously forgotten.
“Ahh! It hurts! My waist and legs feel like they’re broken!”
