Chapter 52

When Amamiya Ruisei asked this, Tsushima Shuji froze, not knowing how to answer. While they were in a stalemate, Taneda Santoka and Sakaguchi Ango finally arrived at the hospital.

"Reisheng, you finally woke up." Taneda Santouko looked Amamiya Leisheng up and down, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was in good spirits. "It's already August, I was really worried that you would sleep until the New Year."

The man looked worried: "It's good that you woke up. I heard about your physical condition from the doctor on the way. You need to recuperate for at least a few months..."

"Captain Taneda, let's talk about my affairs later." Amamiya frowned, "I won't die for a while anyway, so tell me what happened to Shuji-kun first."

The young man had an expression that asked, "How do you take care of a child?", which made Taneda Santouko couldn't help but take a step back and cast his gaze towards Tsushima Shuji who was sitting obediently beside him.

The boy stared at the bedside, his hands and feet were placed properly, and even his head was not moving. He looked so obedient. Taneda Santohuo looked at Amamiya Ruisei with a twitch of his mouth: "Didn't Shuji tell you?"

Amamiya Raisei glanced at Tsushima Shuji and said, "Well, you know, Shuji-kun has his own opinions."

Not only is he independent-minded, not to mention that he agreed to cooperate with the experiment, the injuries on his body were caused by acting alone. God knows if he can allow himself to be injured now, or if he will jump off the roof and let himself be shattered into pieces in the future.

Amamiya Reizo was really angry and distressed.

"...Okay." Taneda Santouko glanced at the obedient Tsushima Shuji again, thinking of his great achievements in the past few months. Considering Amamiya Tetsuki's current physical condition, he thought it would be better to show him slowly, "I'll show you all the data from this period later."

Only then was Amamiya Ruisei satisfied.

He glanced at Sakaguchi Ango, who was hiding at the door and didn't dare to come in, and said, "Ango-kun, you and Shuji-kun should leave for a while. I have something to say to Chief Taneda alone."

Sakaguchi Ango: “Huh?”

"I understand, sir." Shuji Tsushima stood up first and pulled Ango Sakaguchi out.

Looking back at the closed ward door, Sakaguchi Ango said in a low voice, "Shuji, did you make Mr. Amamiya angry?"

Tsushima Shuji glared at him unhappily: "How can you not be angry when you see me covered in wounds?"

Sakaguchi Ango curled his lips, "Who told you to suffer this? You bravely broke into the enemy camp alone. If you were discovered, you would be hunted down by a group of people. And, Mr. Amamiya, are you going to discuss the experiment with Chief Taneda? Mr. Amamiya just woke up and is still in such a bad condition. You told him this and made him faint again. Aren't you afraid that he will sleep for a few months after fainting?"

"The master will know it sooner or later anyway," Tsushima Shuji said gloomily, "why not talk to him while I'm looking at him pitifully?"

Sakaguchi Ango rolled his eyes and said, "Many times I really don't understand what you are thinking."

The young boy leaned against the wall and said in a frustrated tone, "But now that Mr. Amamiya has woken up, you shouldn't keep everything to yourself. Thinking too much can easily lead to trouble. I was scared when I saw you rushing up to snatch the enemy's knife. Don't forget that you are only eleven years old."

Tsushima Shuji blinked and said softly: "There's no need to understand what I'm thinking, anyway..." Anyway, Mr. Amemiya didn't understand either.

…

After the two minors left, Amamiya Ruisheng coughed heavily several times, which made Zongtian Shantouhuo feel guilty.

"If you're really uncomfortable, you should rest first." Taneda Santou sighed, "I didn't expect it to be so serious this time. I'm really worried that you'll be dizzy for a few months and your body won't be able to bear it."

Over the past few months, Amamiya Keisei has been completely dependent on intravenous drips to maintain nutrition, and he looks particularly haggard.

"What can happen to me? I am an adult after all," Amamiya Reizo said in a deep voice, "but I am not as good as Shuji who hurt himself at such a young age. At this age, he should be enjoying campus life and childhood happily in school instead of risking his life for the Special Forces."

Taneda Santouki was also distressed. He shook his head and sighed, "In fact, these were all proposed by Xiuzhi himself. I couldn't stop him even if I wanted to. If he insisted, I couldn't just lock him up and prevent him from participating in the mission, right?"

Then they are not colleagues, but enemies.

"Every time I go on a mission, I will arrange for a psychic to follow him. But as you know, Xiuzhi's psychic ability can be invalidated. Every time he can leave the psychic's sight and act alone."

"But he succeeds in every mission." Taneda Santouko's expression was a little broken. "I can't control him at all. Is he really only eleven years old?"

For the first time, Zhongtian Shantouhuo experienced the pain of raising a child, especially since this child was very independent-minded, capable, and smart.

Amemiya fell into an odd silence.

So did Tsushima Shuji completely "subdue" the Special Powers Special Service Department?

"Shuji-kun is now a celebrity in the Special Power Division. He is a very polite boy, but he is inexplicably scary. It's probably because he is so reckless."

Taneda Santouko was in great pain: "I can only hope that you will pay more attention to him in the future. He can't just talk to Ango alone in the Special Ability Division."

Amamiya Reizo raised his hand and rubbed his forehead: "I see, then what about the research?"

"He told you?" Taneda Santouhuo was even more troubled. "In fact, the research has just started for half a month, and it is still on the most superficial project. When I mentioned it to him before, he said that he could agree, but he also needed your consent, so now he is just doing the ability analysis."

Analyzing the effects of superpowers, researching development directions and methods, as well as how to use them, is what all official superpowers have to do, so that their superiors can better arrange personnel matters.

"She agreed, but she also made a lot of requests."

Taneda Santoka briefly said: "It's all for your sake and his own. It's eye-opening, but Shuji's ability is so important, so the contract has been delayed again and again."

When Amamiya Ruisei heard the conditions like "get at least three times the salary for doing the least work" and "you can take a leave if you want and not work at all", his face was full of question marks and he was dumbfounded.

"Shuji-kun doesn't want to work so much..." Amamiya Rei said hesitantly, "Then why did he take the initiative to go on a mission?"

“…Who knows what he is thinking.”

Amamiya Keizo and Taneda Santouki looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Okay," Amamiya Leisei closed his eyes, "I'll talk to him later."

Maybe he should listen to Tsushima Shuji's ideas instead of rejecting his decision.

…

Amemiya Leisheng stayed in the hospital for another two weeks and was allowed to go home to recuperate.

Although his body was vomiting blood from time to time and his condition had become more serious, and he was sometimes unable to get out of bed, Amamiya Keisei felt that his vest was much healthier than his real self, especially when Tsushima Shuji stayed by his side. His restless supernatural powers were forcefully suppressed, and he felt so comfortable.

So Amamiya Leisheng simply applied to go home. He didn't want to stay in the hospital both in his original body and here.

"Sir, are you really okay?" Tsushima Shuji looked at Amamiya Raisei pushing the wheelchair by himself, and hesitated to speak, "Are you really not going to stay in the hospital for a while?"

"I don't want to."

Amamiya Leisheng curled his lips and said, "If you stay in the hospital for too long, you will feel uncomfortable. Besides, Shuji-kun doesn't want to come to the hospital to see me all the time."

Tsushima Shuji: "It's just a small matter. Anyway, the hospital of the Special Power Department is not far from the headquarters. I can visit you every day when I go there."

Amamiya Leisheng reached out and touched the boy's hair, saying, "I have been in the hospital for several months. You must be unhappy every time you step into the hospital. Why don't you come back home?"

The young man tilted his head and chuckled: "Although I can't work with you for the time being, I will be there when you go home from now on."

Tsushima Shuji hummed softly.

It was not very convenient for both of them, one big and one small, and by the time they finally got upstairs, quite a while had passed.

Returning home again, Amamiya Raisei couldn't help but relax. He glanced at the furnishings in the house and saw that there were no major changes from when he left. He couldn't help but say, "I'm back."

Tsushima Shuji paused while putting his luggage away, leaned over to look at him, and said with a smile, "Sir, welcome back."

The two of them simply tidied up the house and ordered some takeout. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Amamiya collapsed on the sofa, tilting his head and watching Tsushima Shuji reading a book.

"Sir, why are you staring at me?" Tsushima Shuji sighed and put down his textbook. "Are you bored? I bought a new game console. Do you want to play it?"

"Let's play video games later."

Amamiya Leisei held his head with one hand, staring intently, and said, "I was just thinking about how to talk to you."

Tsushima Shuji was helpless: "... Sir, if you want to ask anything, you can just ask directly."

"Okay." Amamiya Reizo thought, "Let me think about it."

"I accidentally missed Shuji-kun's birthday. What gift do you want? I'll make it up to you."

Tsushima Shuji was a little surprised. After Amamiya Rei woke up, they hadn't talked about work for two weeks except for the beginning. He thought Amamiya Rei would ask about it after returning home.

When Amamiya Ruisei saw Tsushima Shuji's expression, he said speechlessly, "This is home. I just came back. Why should I talk to you about work?"

Tsushima Shuji choked, then muttered a few times, and said awkwardly: "Birthdays and the like will come again in the future. If you miss it, then you miss it. It's enough that the gentleman is fine."

"How can that be? Your birthday means so much this year." Amamiya Leisheng curled his lips, "Don't worry, I will definitely think of it."
