single row ahead

"Would you like to go upstairs with me first? Snow."

Because Yuki finally responded to his words, Oda Sakunosuke carefully observed the reaction of the white-haired boy, and asked gently.

It would be nice if it went well.

The burgundy-haired young man prayed in his heart, because today is the only day off. As the bottom mafia, trivial chores and all kinds of finishing work have already taken up his time, especially It was in Yokohama, a chaotic city almost entirely controlled by the Mafia.

"...What?" The white-haired boy, who took a long time to react, asked with a confused expression because he was immersed in his own world and didn't hear what Oda Sakunosuke said.

"Go upstairs and have a look, look at your room, and look at Kosuke and the others. They will be brothers and sisters who will live together in the future, and they need to get to know each other first."

Oda Sakunosuke didn't care about Yuki's slowness, and patiently slowed down and repeated it again, spelling out every word clearly.

This time the white-haired boy heard clearly.

"...Okay." It was still a half-beat slow answer, Yuki nodded, seeing that the warm feeling he liked on Oda Sakunosuke disappeared again, she lowered her head a little disinterestedly, wanting to return to the previous one A state of comfort without even thinking about it.

Oda Sakunosuke looked at the white-haired boy who said "yes" but didn't move at all, and wondered helplessly in his heart, did he know what he meant by what he said.

Oda Sakunosuke had no choice but to go forward and touch his hand. Seeing that he didn't seem to resist, he took his hand and slowly led him up to the second floor.

Because he was afraid of seeing too many strangers at once—even though he was still a child, it would scare him, so Oda Sakunosuke led him to the room prepared for him before, but because there was really nothing to see, so he just After turning around twice casually, telling Xue that this is his room in the future—although I don’t know if he listened to it, the whole process did not exceed 5 minutes, Oda Sakunosuke led Xue out again in embarrassment, and went to the five children s room.

"This is Kosuke's room."

Oda Sakunosuke showed a smile on his face, and turned to talk to Yuki.

Unexpectedly, there was no response, Oda Sakunosuke turned his head back, curled two fingers, knocked on the door, and shouted, "Xingsuke, Katsumi, Shinji, Yu, Sakura, I'm coming in!"

The room was quiet, and there was no sound.

As if he had long been used to this kind of silence, Oda Sakunosuke pushed the door open indifferently.

Before he went in, he let go of Xue's hand, comforted him with a smile, and signaled the white-haired boy to wait outside for a while.

click.

With the sound of the door's lock cylinder knocking, the three lively children, Xingsuke, Yu and Katsumi, who had already been ambushing behind the door, seemed to have discussed it, and they all rushed together as soon as Oda Sakunosuke opened the door. come up.

Odasaku who was thrown to the ground by the three children smiled helplessly.

"Wow, Odasaku!" This is the voice of the boss Kosuke.

"Hahaha, you've been fooled again this time, Oda Saku!" Katsumi triumphantly pressed on Oda Sakunosuke's lap, and even jumped up and down mischievously.

"Oda Saku! It's been a long time since I came this time!" Yushi was really surprised, and hugged Oda Sakunosuke's arm.

The somewhat shy Shinji sat next to the bookshelf. Because of his shyness, he did not greet him enthusiastically like the other three boys. He just quietly covered his flushed cheeks from excitement with a book, and secretly glanced at Ori from the corner of his eye. Tasaku's help, the voice is thin and weak, but he can really feel the joy in it, "Odasaku!"

The youngest, Sakiraku, couldn't even speak, just sat on her little bed, stretched out her hands in the direction of Oda Sakunosuke, frowned as if dissatisfied that he was occupied by three older brothers, and yelled eagerly with.

"Okay, okay." Oda Sakunosuke smiled and touched the children's heads one by one in a lying position.

As usual, he put his hands on the ground, straightened his back first, then hugged them aside one by one, and finally stood up with his knees bent.

He clapped his hands, cleared his throat, and made a solemn look, "There is an important announcement to be made today."

Seeing Oda Sakunosuke make this gesture, the four older boys consciously stood in a row in front of him, looking up at him, their curious eyes sparkling.

"Xingsuke, go and bring Sakule over here."

"Okay, Oda Tsukuru!" Xingsuke's voice always gives people a feeling of vitality, which is an innate talent, although what this child dreams of becoming in the future is completely incompatible with this talent mafia.

He trotted and carried Sakule out with a wrinkled face, and trotted back to his position, Xingsuke put Sakule, who was smiling as he got closer to Oda Sakunosuke, on the floor, and carefully supported her After letting her sit down, she saluted Oda Sakunosuke with a serious face, and said loudly, "Report to Oda Saku, the task has been successfully completed!"

"Well, well done." Oda Sakunosuke also nodded very cooperatively, and praised Xingsuke.

"Okay, now that we're all here, I'll start announcing."

Oda Sakunosuke put his hands behind his back, "From today onwards, our family will add a new member, everyone should be friendly and help each other, understand?"

"understood--"

Already accustomed to Oda Sakunosuke's habit of picking up people from time to time, the children had no objections, even the young Sakule clapped his hands half-understood.

"Then, wait a minute," Oda Sakunosuke knew that Yuki might not pay attention to his words, so he just walked out of the door at the beginning and walked in holding his hand, "This is Yuki, I may be a little shy now, everyone should be careful." Take care of him."

"..."

However, this time his words failed to get a warm response from the children, and Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help but looked down at the children with some doubts. He habitually asked the boss, Kosuke, "What's wrong? Kosuke."

"Yes, yes!" Xingsuke shivered, blushing from his cheeks to his ears, he slapped his straight palms tightly against the seams of his trousers, raised his head and chest, straightened his back, and replied loudly, " I will definitely take good care of Sister Xue!"

Oda Sakunosuke was speechless for a moment.

He looked at the expressions of the other children, except for Saku Le, the boys were all blushing like monkey butts, nodding desperately, responding to Xingsuke's words.

If you take a closer look, you will find that even Saku Le is staring at Xue in a daze.

Oda Sakunosuke, who was dumbfounded, had to emphasize, "Yuki is not a sister, but a brother, remember?"

He glanced at Xue who was quietly being held by him, and he had to say that it was indeed very confusing.

If he hadn't touched Xue's palm and felt the inconspicuous but slightly thicker bone shape than a girl, he might have mistaken Xue for a girl with more neutral clothes at first sight.

"Eh--!"

The four boys immediately showed expressions of disbelief as if they had been struck by lightning, especially Xingsuke.

"Brother, brother!" Xingsuke jumped out, his eyes widened, and he pointed at Xue who was still immersed in his own world, "He, he, he, he doesn't look like a brother!"

"Uh..." Oda Sakunosuke rubbed his hair with his hands in embarrassment, thought for a while, and said, "Because he is a boy."

"And older than you all." He added.
