Chapter 97
Standing in the bustling airport, Sawada Tsunayoshi felt uneasy, fearing that the humanoid natural disasters around him would start fighting, after all, this was an airport.
If Yamamoto, Gokudera, and the others damage the buildings here, Reborn definitely won't pay for it. Instead, he'll say with a straight face: "Ah, Tsuna, this is all the result of your incompetence as the boss, so you're responsible for it yourself."
Thinking of this, Sawada Tsunayoshi wished he could carry everyone away from here immediately.
Rokudo Mukuro was in a good mood. With Varian and the Vongola around, it was bound to be lively. Having been reborn, he loved excitement and fun.
He stood beside Sawada Tsunayoshi with great interest, glancing at the noisy Vongola members every now and then, his face practically screaming "I'm watching the show."
A moment later, Rokudo Mukuro turned his gaze toward the exit, where a familiar figure appeared.
Sawada Tsunayoshi also noticed the figure. "That... that must be Fran now."
What appeared before everyone was the figure of a small child, but he was wearing a large apple headgear.
Rokudo Mukuro smiled and nodded. "It's him."
As Sawada Tsunayoshi breathed a sigh of relief, alarm bells went off in his head. He reflexively looked behind Fran, and his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.
Led by XANXUS, the Varians swaggered out, their aura causing ordinary people to give way.
Before Sawada Tsunayoshi could figure out how to resolve the current disaster, Fran pounced on him like a little animal that had found its home.
Fran appeared beside Rokudo Mukuro in a flash, stretched out his thin arms, and hugged Rokudo Mukuro's waist, pressing his face against him. He then called out in a drawn-out tone, "Ah, Me~ I've finally found my family—Master~ Rabbit Boss~ There are human traffickers here—"
All eyes turned sharply to them, their gazes filled with wariness and suspicion.
Sawada Tsunayoshi's lips twitched; he wished he could bury himself in the ground. Fran, as expected of Fran, had offended the Varian group with just a few words. And who's the rabbit?!
"Fran, don't talk nonsense..."
He raised his voice, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, the child is just talking nonsense."
Fran ignored him and continued shouting, "They want to tie me up and take me back to the circus to be a frog, but I strongly refuse!"
The small knife at Bell's fingertips, which was close to them, seemed ready to strike.
Squalo's temples bulged with veins; he really wanted to teach that brat who spouted nonsense a lesson.
Lusslia also looked heartbroken, as if she had been hurt by the rebellious child.
XANXUS raised his eyelids and gave a cold snort.
Rokudo Mukuro looked at his unreliable disciple with some disdain, pressed his finger against his forehead, and pushed him back.
He reached out and patted Fran's apple-shaped headgear, clicking his tongue with a hint of schadenfreude, "Watch out, they might gang up on you later."
Fran released Rokudo Mukuro, his expressionless face remaining calm. "Master, you'll help me, won't you?"
Rokudo Mukuro raised his chin. "Of course not."
Fran: "Master, what about love?"
Rokudo Mukuro: "What are you thinking? Do we even have that kind of thing between us?"
Bell stepped forward with a grin. Sawada Tsunayoshi knew what Bell was up to from his action. To avoid escalating the conflict and causing him to be burdened with huge debts at such a young age, he quickly ran over and stopped Bell.
Sawada Tsunayoshi forced a smile and turned his gaze to XANXUS. "XANXUS, and everyone else, let's hurry home. Mom knew you were coming, so she prepared a big meal and is waiting for us at home now."
No one can refuse Nana's mother, not even XANXUS.
...
Upon arriving at the Sawada family home, the group received a warm welcome from Nana's mother.
Rokudo Mukuro glanced at the dining table, which was laden with a dazzling array of food. The plates were packed tightly together, and there was hardly any room left on the table. Meanwhile, Nana's mother was still busy in the kitchen, humming a song.
"This is way too much." Sawada Tsunayoshi knew his mother had started preparing early in the morning, but he hadn't expected her to make so much food.
“There are so many people here.” Reborn pointed to the people in the room.
Sawada Tsunayoshi looked around and saw that the Vari Safety Guard was present. XANXUS sat on his exclusive throne, exuding an air of dominance. The others gathered around him and talked. Uncle Octopus faithfully guarded behind him, while the virtuous Squalo tried to go to the kitchen to help Nana's mother with the cooking.
Gokudera and the others started arguing again for some unknown reason, while Lambo and the other kids were running around the room.
Kyoko, Chrome, and the other girls chatted about their own topics.
Even Hibari-senpai, who always preferred quiet solitude, stayed in a corner of the room, waiting for the party to begin.
Rokudo Mukuro sat in a seat by the window and glanced discreetly at the people in the room. The Vongola members were as noisy as ever... and also very lively.
From the warm and ordinary Sawada family home to the luxurious Vongola Castle, there have been many such gatherings, with the same people always present, and their relationships seem to have remained unchanged.
From spirited and passionate young people to white-haired and worldly-wise old people, they will always be noisy and boisterous like this.
Rokudo Mukuro hates the evil Mafia; that is an unchangeable fact.
But Rokudo Mukuro didn't dislike the people in front of him...
Rokudo Mukuro looked up at the window. A few white clouds floated in the azure sky. A gentle breeze ruffled his hair. He raised his hand to shield his eyes from the bright, dazzling sunlight, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips.
This kind of life is good.
