The sound of the rain outside was still rattling, and the thick cloud had absorbed enough water to press down on the sky, and the entire Bingsheng Hospital was as oppressive as the night.

The footsteps outside the ward stop and go, like hammers one after another, knocking on Gangji's brain, and the heart-pounding pain began to slowly seep into the nerves, which made him almost unable to think properly.

He looked up at Lan Bo who was lying on the bed in the ward again. The curly-haired boy was lying quietly on the bed. The noisy voices before had all disappeared, leaving only the faint mist in the oxygen mask that showed the ups and downs of his vital signs.

- Clap!

A blast of thunder resounded outside the window, and the originally dark night instantly brightened like day, illuminating Sawada Tsunayoshi's gloomy and uncertain face.

Under the glaring white light, the boy's bloodless face showed a sickly paleness.

"Would you like to take a rest?" Yuzu, who had been standing behind her for a long time, finally couldn't help but to speak, her slender eyebrows slightly furrowed, "I still have to practice tomorrow..."

It's not a good idea to stay here all the time, not to mention that Lan Bo's injury can't be healed overnight.It's useless to wait here, and she doesn't know if it's Yuzu's illusion, she always feels that there is something wrong with Tsuna's current state.

"Am I terrible..." The boy's deep voice became a little hoarse, and he stared at the people in the ward without even moving, "A child as young as Lan Bo is involved, and what's more... He suffered such serious injuries..."

It would have been fine if I hadn't agreed to reborn from the beginning, and it would have been fine if there hadn't been any so-called Ten Generations of Pengelie from the beginning.

Obviously don't want to step into such a world, obviously just want to protect everyone.

Why do you always have to lead the people around you into danger again and again?The worst thing to do is to try to protect...and end up protecting nothing.

All promises, beliefs—

It's all just a ridiculous joke.

"If you have time to worry about him, it's better to go back to practice." Reborn beside him rarely satirized him, "You have to know that the next battle will always be so cruel."

"Then why should I fight?!" The tense string broke in an instant, Sawada Tsunayoshi finally couldn't bear it and yelled at Reborn. Nerves made his originally not very clear mind even more chaotic, "I said it! I don't want to be a mafia! I don't want to be a Pengel Judaimu! It's reborn, you keep talking to yourself I came in, but I met this group of people and put everyone in such a situation! Even if I practice...even if I practice, I can't win XANXUS at all! Reborn why do you have to do this!"

After finishing all this loudly, Tsuna bowed and supported his knees out of breath, as if finally pouring out the pressure that had been accumulated in his heart all this time.The cold sweat on his forehead flowed down his cheeks, making his face even more sickly.

"What are you talking about so frustrating now?" Reborn scolded in a low voice, trying to calm his mind, "At this point, even if you want to retreat, it won't help, unless you win, otherwise XANXUS will just take you and your partner together And obliterate!"

"But I can't defeat him at all..." Gang Ji squatted down in pain, his voice growling like a trapped animal, "That man is so powerful, it's just based on my words..."

"No matter what you do, there is only one way for you now, and that is to go on until you win this ring battle." Reborn ignored his complaints and replied in a calm and composed manner.

After saying all this, he took a deep look at the young man who was squatting on the ground, what kind of emotion echoed in his dark eyes, even Yuzu had no way of knowing.Immediately he turned around, leaving only a cold back to the desperate young man behind him, and the gradually receding back finally shrank into a point in the corridor of the hospital.

Prison Temple and Yamamoto, who followed them early in the morning, also went home for their own reasons. After all, it is meaningless to stay until late at night.Only Tsunayoshi Sawada insisted on staying here and watching Lanbo all the time no matter what he said, no matter what persuasion he was persistent and stubborn, it didn't work.

Yuzu was worried, so she had to stay with him in the hospital.

The temperature at night is low, especially in a place like a hospital, you can feel the cold air just by entering.Yuzu only wore an unlined garment when she went out, and now it's midnight when the cool wind blows in, leaving a layer of coolness on her skin.

However, these are not important, the important thing is... She glanced worriedly at the young man sitting next to her with her head bowed and silent. Her brown hair covered his eyes so that Yuzu couldn't see the expression inside clearly. The only thing she could see was The only thing is the tight corners of the mouth and the stiff jaw.

He was not in a good mood, it could even be called bad.

"Do you want to take a break? I can watch here." Yuzu looked at him worriedly, and turned slightly to the side to get closer to the distance between the two.

"...No need." Gang Ji shook his head wearily, only feeling that his mind was in such a mess that he didn't even want to move.

Yuzu's frown deepened, and her intuition told her that there was something wrong with Sawada Tsunayoshi, perhaps because of the rain, the girl's intuition became more delicate and sensitive than usual.

"Ah, what's the matter with you, Gang?" A gentle female voice interrupted the girl's thoughts. She looked up and saw Nana Sawada bending over worriedly to look at the boy sitting on the chair exuding a low breath.

Gangji raised his eyes and saw his mother was stunned for a moment, not understanding why she was here, "Why would mother...?"

"Ah?" Nana Sawada tilted her head and explained with a blink of an eye, "It was Mr. Reborn who told me that Lanbo was injured and had to be hospitalized, so I hurried over here. Really... Gang, you are so careless. Let Lanbo fall from upstairs..."

Listening to his mother's babbling, the teenager who used to complain didn't have any emotional fluctuations when facing the reason made up by reborn, he just pulled the corner of his mouth and showed an ugly smile, "Mm, um... Thank you for your hard work, mom..."

"Hmm...?" The chattering woman stopped talking, and looked at the boy curiously stretching out her hand, "Ah Gang is not quite right today, what's wrong?"

Gangji tilted his head to avoid Nana's palm, barely holding back his smile, "It's all right, Mom... you can go and take care of Lanbo."

Hearing this, the woman looked at her son suspiciously several times, and there was nothing reassuring in her gentle eyes.Seeing this, Yuzu distracted the woman's attention by making a sound at the right time, "I'm sorry, Aunt Nana," the girl put her hands in front of her with an apologetic smile, "I think my junior is just a little worried about Mr. Lan Bo, after all, I don't think he is our responsibility."

Nana nodded knowingly, "That's it~" Then she showed a gentle and bright smile, and comforted Gang Ji, "Well~ it's not all Gang's responsibility, just pay attention next time, didn't the doctor say it's okay Well. Just take a few days of rest and recuperate."

"Cheer up, Tsuna~"

Nana Sawada's reassurance relieved Tsunayoshi a lot, at least the sense of loss that lingered all over his body at the beginning was not as strong as before.Yuzu stood quietly on one side without speaking, thinking,

The presence of a mother is indeed very reassuring.

Not long after, Sawada Nana proposed to take care of Lanbo and let Yuzu and Tsunayoshi go home to have a good rest. Yuzu also promised that the other party would go home in time, which made Nana feel relieved.After seeing the woman off, Yuzu stood on the spot and breathed a sigh of relief.Fortunately, Gangji's mother is a woman who is a bit out of line naturally, even if the fabricated reasons are unreliable, she can accept them.I don't know if I really don't care about these or if I am too gentle and ignore the weirdness.

It is probably thanks to this that Iemitsu Sawada's position as a consultant outside Peng Gelie's door for many years can be kept secret and not leaked.

——Sawada Iemitsu and Sawada Tsunayoshi are really happy to have such a wife and mother.

"Since Aunt Nana is here, I think you'd better take a break, okay?" Yuzu moved closer to Tsunayoshi, persuading the still awkward boy in a calm tone.

"..." Gang Ji didn't make a sound, and sat there with his head bowed.

Helpless, Yuzu had no choice but to stretch out her hand to forcefully pull him to rest.I never thought that as soon as I touched the boy's skin, I would be startled by the scorching temperature above, like a tongue of fire licking her skin.

Yuzu hurriedly touched the boy's forehead, the temperature on it was almost the same as that on his hand, it was scalding hot.

"You have a fever." The girl came to a conclusion calmly, and without hesitation, the girl took her hand off Tsuna Kichi's forehead and stood up, "I'll go find a doctor."

Unexpectedly, Gang Ji grabbed her sleeve and stopped her from leaving.

"Sister, don't go."

Because of the fever, Tsuna Ji's voice sounded weak, as if she was acting like a baby.Youzi had no choice but to break the boy's hand, only to find that his hand was surprisingly strong, and he couldn't break free at all.

"Be obedient, Gang." Changed to a softer tone, Yuzu's gentle tone was mixed with certainty, "I'm just going to the doctor and I'll be right back. You have a fever now."

However, the boy Gangji was determined not to let her get what she wanted. With a little effort, he pulled Yuzu to his side, hugged her and buried her head in the girl's waist. The muffled voice made Yuzu feel helpless, "No, I want Yuzu to accompany me."

The wayward boy was relentless, he wrapped his arms around the girl's waist tightly and did not move.

Sensing the fragility of the young man, Yuzu felt a little anxious. She must find a doctor now, because if the fever does not subside, it may cause more serious symptoms, and it will only cause more trouble.But Gangji looks like this...

After thinking about it, she gently put her hands on Tsuna Ji's head, letting the brown hair flow from between her fingers, "Then I will go to the doctor with you?" In his heart, the nerves that made him clamor for pain eased a lot, "I will always be with you, don't worry."

After a while, feeling the boy's slight nod, Yuzi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly pulled the other person to stand up and walked towards the nearest doctor's duty room.Angry and anxious, she had no choice but to hold the other person's body tightly to prevent him from falling, and dragged him for several minutes for a short distance.

Fortunately, he still lay on the hospital bed in the end and received a dose of antipyretic injection.

"You should be fine tomorrow. If you have any questions, you can just go to the nurse." After leaving these words, the doctor on duty left the ward, leaving behind only the girl who kept thanking her and the boy lying on the bed with a flushed face.

It takes a certain amount of time for the fever to subside, and it will take at least half an hour after the injection to take effect.

Sighing, Yuzi moved a small stool and sat beside the hospital bed to watch over Gangji, tucking the quilt for him from time to time to protect him from the wind.

After such tossing, the originally cold body slowly warmed up, and Yuzu actually felt a little hot sitting in the warm ward.

"Well, Lanbo..." The boy on the bed frowned and muttered to himself, his eyes closed tightly as if extremely disturbed.

Hearing his murmur, Yuzu couldn't help stretching out her fingers, touching the center of her brows with slightly cool fingertips and rubbing gently, until Tsuna completely relaxed her brows and fell asleep peacefully before leaving.

Sawada Tsunayoshi felt that he had a long dream, and there was a lot of noise in it, and many, many pictures flashed past his eyes one by one like a movie.Everyone is standing by his side, those he knows, those he doesn't know, those he likes, those he hates, those he fears, those he fears... All those voices are fused together and intertwined into a disturbing symphony.

The twittering was so disturbing, he felt like countless wooden sticks in his head were constantly stirring his fragile nerves, and bursts of pain kept spreading from his head, like waves on a calm lake. Another wave of water ripples continued to stir.

——Ahhhhh...I really want to vent it all...

As soon as such thoughts popped up, the young man felt a refreshing sensation on his forehead, reminding him of a clear spring covered in ice and snow.The depression in my heart was gradually suppressed, and the disturbing dreams lost their depressive noise and became silent.

Everything is silent, and time is deliberately forgotten behind.

He opened his eyes suddenly.

The snow-white ceiling and walls stimulated Gangji's eyes for a moment, and there was always a faint smell of disinfectant in the surrounding air, which inhaled into his nasal cavity and calmed him down a lot.

So, he is lying in the hospital?

Slowly sat up, the white quilt on his body slipped from his shoulders, and then he saw that there was a person sitting beside him, Yuzu propped his chin on the hospital bed with one hand, and held Gangji tightly with the other hand The hand prevents him from making any movements that he cannot detect in time.

At this time, because of Sawada Tsunayoshi's standing hand squirmed slightly, Mizuno Yuzu suddenly woke up from the dream.

When he opened his eyes, he met the brown eyes of the person opposite.

"Tsuna...?" The girl whose mind was not very clear hadn't reacted, until Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't help laughing when she saw her confused appearance, she suddenly realized what happened.

"...you're awake!" She got up quickly, and put one hand towards the boy's forehead, and she was completely relieved after making sure that the boy's fever had subsided—it seemed that the medicine had already taken effect.

Gangji had no choice but to grab that hand, and smiled embarrassedly, "Sorry, senior sister, it seems to have caused you a lot of trouble...but I'm much better now."

The young man's warm eyes seemed to be overflowing with tea, the light above his head was crushed and flew into his sight, and there was a reassuring tenderness in the corner of his mouth.

Blushing at the unabashed stare of Gang Ji, Yuzu hastily snatched her hand from him, and her voice became discontinuous, "Cough, no, it's nothing to trouble..."

The girl's rare shyness and embarrassment made Gangji feel a lot better. He raised the corners of his mouth happily, and his originally gloomy mood gradually cleared up, "Well, I know."

As long as he knows that she is always here, that's enough.
