Mr. Hat who was forced to lose his memory

"I'm back." Zhongyuan Zhong also changed his shoes at the entrance, and shouted customarily.At this time, he suddenly found a pair of unfamiliar leather shoes on the shoe cabinet, and there was a missing pair of slippers for guests.

Are there any guests at home?Chuya Nakahara was wondering when Honda Ju's head poked out from the living room: "Welcome back, Chuya, come in first."

Zhongyuan Zhong also put his backpack on the wooden floor beside him, and Pochi was circling excitedly around his feet, so Zhongyuan Zhong also bent down and touched the white puppy's head before entering the living room.

Sure enough, there are guests at home. The reddish-brown-haired young man is sitting on the sofa in the living room and drinking green tea. Although he is wearing a black suit of expensive materials and a wine-red tie, he looks like he is ready to attend the banquet of the big bosses at any time. But his sitting posture is quite casual, and he seems to be an informal type.

Honda Chrysanthemum let Nakahara Nakaya sit next to him, and introduced at the right time: "He is my son, Nakahara Nakaya. Nakahara, he is a distinguished guest from Italy, and his name is Lovino Vargas."

"Hello, Mr. Vargas." Zhongya Nakahara greeted politely.

Honda Chrysanthemum has quite a lot of friends, and most of them come from all corners of the world. Zhong Yuanzhong has also experienced this.Not only that, he also knows that in addition to his mother tongue, Honda Ju is also proficient in the languages ​​of many countries.Sometimes at home in Zhongyuan, I often hear Honda Ju talking on the phone with foreign friends. The languages ​​​​conversed include English, Chinese, Italian, German and other languages, and the pronunciation is very standard and fluent, and there is no jamming phenomenon at all.

Zhongyuan Zhong also claims that he can't do this. At most, he can only use English and Italian for daily conversations, thanks to the long-term business trips in his previous life.

"I see, you are Ju's adopted child." Although he is Italian, Lovino's Japanese pronunciation is also very clear. This tone even reminds Nakahara of the time when he met in the future ten years later for no reason. Giotto.

"Chuya—I'll just call you that for now. In exchange, you can also call me Lovino. I don't like people calling me by my last name."

Lovino's personality is as straightforward as his sitting posture, but unexpectedly, Zhong Yuanzhong does not dislike this kind of person.Rather, he is actually a straightforward person in essence, and getting along with such a person is not too tiring, and most of his friends are also of this type.

Only Osamu Dazai, who is more scheming than a hornet's nest and deeper than the Mariana Trench, is a different kind of person, and he is often so sloppy that people can't help but want to beat him a million times. Such a person can live happily It's a miracle to be alive.

Later, after chatting, Zhongyuan Zhong also learned that Lovino would come to Japan because he received an invitation from the Pengelie family.

The succession ceremony of the Vongola family is an unprecedented grand ceremony for Sawada Tsunayoshi to officially become the leader of the tenth generation of Vongola. As the tenth generation leader of Vongola, Tsuna will hold the command of the world's powerful mafia Vongola family-that is, become the ruler of the Italian mafia.

This is a grand ceremony for the inheritance of extraordinary power. All the mafia circles have expressed great interest and are waiting to see. In order to see the demeanor of the next leader of Vengley, the invited powerful mafia will travel across the world Yuan Yang came to Japan to participate in the unprecedentedly grand Pengel succession ceremony.

"Well, having said that, I'm just going to show up for a while to witness, after all, I had an agreement with some bastard before." Lovino said indifferently.

After hearing the story, he recalled the foreign news broadcast on the commercial screen outside. The news that Peng Geli's ninth generation had arrived in Japan was scrolling and broadcasting on the news page in full swing, and Zhong Yuanzhong couldn't help frowning.

...This is very different from his memory.

He remembered that in his previous life, Tsunayoshi Sawada immigrated to Italy after graduating from high school, and officially became the head of the Vongola family.The succession ceremony was done with vigor and grandeur, as if telling the whole world of the Mafia that from now on the highest throne of Western powers would be replaced by a new master.

In fact, the port mafia was also invited to participate in the succession ceremony of Vengley, but the leader at the time, Mori Ogai, was tired of dealing with MIMIC, an outside force organization that suddenly broke into Japan, and could not spare manpower to participate, so he had to apologize and decline.

But... Sawada Tsunayoshi has not yet graduated from junior high school, and he is very resistant to inheriting a mafia family. Is it really okay to hold the succession ceremony immediately?

Lovino only stayed at Honda Ju's house for a few hours before going out to say goodbye. Before leaving, he said something to Honda Ju in Italian. He also answered something in Italian, this time he heard a person named "Sawada Ieyasu".

It seems to have the same surname as Sawada Tsunayoshi. Does this person have anything to do with Sawada Tsunayoshi?

"Is Hokkaido fun?" Honda Ju's voice brought Nakahara Nakaya back to his senses. He had already sent Lovino away and returned to the sofa in the living room, looking at him with a gentle face.

Nakahara Chuya came back to his senses and nodded: "The night view of Hakodate is beautiful, a rare sight...Speaking of which, I met Mr. Kirkland in Sapporo, and he asked me to say hello to you on his behalf."

As for the thrilling incidents such as the almost crash on the plane to Hokkaido and the two murders... it's better not to mention it, so as not to increase Honda Ju's worry.

"Mr. Kirkland... Arthur Kirkland?"

"Well, yes. We happened to be booked in the same hotel at the time, and we met while taking a hot spring."

When it comes to Arthur Kirkland, Zhong Yuanzhong will also think of what that person said to him before he left, what kind of seal was unlocked...

"Really, you should have called me in advance to tell me about coming to Japan, but you couldn't entertain him properly."

"Probably because you think it's not easy to bother your father with such a trivial matter?"

After all, Honda Ju had been on a business trip before, and he was too busy to return home... But it seems that he was on a business trip because of his fault.Nakahara was also trapped in a different world at that time, and Saiki Kusuo forged an identical avatar in order to cover up his disappearance, but it was somewhat different from the real one. It was only then that Mu Kusuo brainwashed Honda Ju's boss a little bit and asked him to assign Honda Ju a long-term business trip.

Zhong Yuanzhong couldn't help coughing a little guilty.Seeing that Honda Chrysanthemum was wearing an apron and ready to cook, she quickly stood up and wanted to help.He brought back a few fresh and plump cod crabs from Hokkaido as a special product. Although at first it was because Dazai Osamu clamored to eat crab meat, Nakahara actually tasted it a few times and thought it tasted good. , I just want to take it back to Honda Chrysanthemum.

But Honda Kiku only took the cod crabs packed in ice cubes in a foam box, but drove Nakahara Nakaya out of the kitchen on the grounds that "I alone is enough, you go and feed Pochi Xiaodama first".So Zhong Yuanzhong had no choice but to open a can of tuna first, put it in front of Xiaoyu who was waiting to be fed, and poured some dog food into Boqi's bowl.

After finishing everything, Nakahara Chuya collapsed on the sofa in the living room.There was some aroma from the kitchen, and it seemed that Honda Chrysanthemum had almost finished cooking the crabs.

Nakahara Chuya's eyes fell on the wall of the living room involuntarily, and he remembered the previous question again.

... In every photo posted on the wall, there is no image of Honda Kikusaki when he was young. Without exception, his appearance in his 20s is exactly the same as now. In reality, there has been no change in the past seven or eight years.

Nakahara also felt that this time he could no longer continue to struggle alone. There must be some mystery about Honda Ju that he didn't know about, and this person could only tell him himself. Even if Osamu Dazai knew everything, he couldn't tell it all. I can only suggest a few words at most.

Half an hour later, Honda Chrysanthemum brought out a large plate, on which was a well-cooked cod crab, the bright red color made the appetite whet the appetite.They have always been unable to speak when they eat together, and they carry out the principle of never speaking when eating together.The food was delicious, and even Nakahara Chuye, who doesn't like crabs very much, couldn't help but add an extra bowl of rice—after all, Honda Ju's cooking skills are not perfect.

In their family, the one who cooks and the other is responsible for washing the dishes, so after eating, Zhongyuan Zhong also consciously took all the dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen sink.He planned to have a showdown with Honda Chrysanthemum after washing the dishes. After all... the fact that his adopted child suddenly had memories from his previous life is not acceptable to everyone, even Zhong Yuanzhong has always tried his best to maintain his own character. It remains the same, but he believes that Honda Chrysanthemum should still be more or less aware of it.

That being the case, it would be better to have an early showdown.

After wiping off the water droplets on his hands, Zhong Yuanzhong also took a few deep breaths before walking out of the kitchen.He found that Honda Chrysanthemum was no longer in the living room, but was sitting in the corridor outside, looking at the hazy scenery in the sky, Xiaoyu, who was full of food and drink, was lying in his arms, and dozed off contentedly.

Zhongyuan Zhong also remained silent for a long time, and struggled in his heart for a long time, before finally speaking softly: "...Father."

"Come and sit, Chuya." Honda Ju didn't look back, as if he knew they were going to have such a formal conversation.

Nakahara Nakaya walked over as he said, and sat next to Honda Ju.It was a bit cold on the wooden floor, but not too uncomfortable.He spoke softly, but firmly enough.

"Please tell me."

"What do you want to know?"

There is no doubt, just a rhetorical question, but Nakahara Chuya instantly understood that Honda Ju already knew everything.

"Everything." Zhongyuan Zhong also lowered his head, looking at the few fish swimming in the clear pond next to the courtyard.

"...Ah, yes. You are no longer a child."

It was almost dusk outside, and the sunset cast a warm yellow outline on the figure of Honda Chrysanthemum, like a god-like brilliance.

Honda Chrysanthemum's voice was unprecedentedly ethereal and lonely, and it was only at this time that Nakahara Chuya suddenly realized that at this moment, he could not feel a trace of human breath from Honda Chrysanthemum.

It's like a ray of soul that has gone through thousands of years of vicissitudes.

"Then, I'll tell you the whole truth."

Clogged on the dark pool surface,

The lotus leaves sway gently.

Lianye is too reckless

There was a whispering sound.

Make a sound that shakes my heart,

Eyes chasing the darkening horizon...

Peep the dark mountain sinking

—Once lost, there is no return.

There is nothing sadder than not knowing sorrow

The smell of grass roots quietly floats into the nostrils,

The soil and gravel of the field stared at me together.

——even I have no intention to cultivate!

Standing dazed in the twilight,

The image of my father seemed to emerge for no reason, I only took one step, two steps

——Chuya Nakahara "Twilight"
