Kneeling and begging to live past the age of 18

Miki Nozomi's body weakened visibly to the naked eye.

There seemed to be this sign at first, but since the summer festival that day, the weakness that was still vague seemed to have lost its hindrance, and it got worse.

The cheeks with a healthy blush were stained with almost transparent paleness, and her walking steps became lighter, and she even became lethargic. Except at night, even during the day, she would be seen sleeping.

At the same time, a strange gossip suddenly came out outside.

Those rumors may be confusing, but they can be summed up in one sentence - other mafia organizations want to harm the port mafia.

"To be honest, Lin Taro's work was slower than I thought."

Looking at the report that stated those "investigations", Nozomi Miki put the report back on the table and looked up at Mori Ogai.

"But it seems like this should convince the government, right?"

"Even paid a little real firepower. If it's just that, you won't find anything if you don't really spend a while investigating."

"That's good."

His eyes were bent, and there was a smile on his pale face, which was obviously so sincerely gratified, but in Mori Ogai's eyes, he only felt a little glaring.

Obviously it's for myself.

"elder sister--"

A clear voice sounded, with obvious dependence, as the door was pushed open, Yumeno Hisaku poked his head in, dragging his voice coquettishly.

"Sister, let's go play—"

Mori Ogai: "..."

It's this brat again, as expected...

Before he could say anything, Miki Nozomi stood up by the sofa and walked towards the door without hesitation.

"Rintaro, Hisakusa and I are going to play first, so you can work by yourself."

Mori Ogai:? ? ?

"Wait—Xi-chan, are you leaving just like that???"

"if not?"

Miki Nozomi, who had already walked to the door, turned around and blinked at Mori Ogai as usual.

"Rin Taro, as an adult, don't care about children."

As soon as the words fell, Mori Ogai's voice approached.

"What if I have to care about it?"

He repeated this sentence, and anyone could hear the seriousness in his voice.

"What if I have to care about it?"

There is still no way to find it, and the time is approaching.Today, now that the plan is getting more and more complete, Mori Ogai finds that he can no longer bear the other party leaving his sight for a second.

Obviously the best choice should be to stay away from the heart. To treat a person who is about to leave forever, take back the emotions you put on the other person is the best choice, but...

but--

He can't.

Rintaro couldn't do it.

Lin Taro didn't even want to leave the other party for a second, he wanted to stay only with the other party in this short time that was passing by.

Obviously there is not much time left, right?Why waste the few remaining hours on other people?

Yes, it should all be yours...

Xi-chan's time is all her own...

"Rintaro?"

The soft voice brought back his thoughts, Mori Ogai only saw Nozomi Miki looked at him helplessly, then turned around and said something to Yumeno Hisaku, and led him back into the house.

"Since it was Rintaro who said it yourself, don't feel noisy when Kusaku and I make any noise."

As he spoke, the little girl cast a teasing glance at him.

"But even if you think it's useless to be noisy, who made you care so much?"

He is obviously in his 30s, and he still fights with children.

"how come?"

Although there was an extra Yumeno Kusaku, Mori Ogai, who still got his wish, raised his hand exaggeratedly, making a gesture of surrender.

"A cute child like Yuki-chan is here, even if he is noisy, he is happy~"

Because it is this child, no matter what the other party does is cute.

As if some terrible switch had been turned on, Mori Ogai's recent actions were considered excessive in the eyes of people he knew.

As if he suddenly had a heavier possessive desire, he couldn't bear Nozomi to leave his sight, even as if he had obsessive-compulsive disorder, he would hesitate for a long time to choose a skirt for Nozomi every day, and only chose one after various comparisons.

Even the food that Miki Nozomi ate was made by him himself, as if he was still in that small clinic.

Even if it wasn't for Miki Nozomi's firm refusal, she would probably be dragged to a bed by the other party to sleep at night.

Regarding this, Miki Nozomi, who was said to be "imprisoned" in the legend, just sighed helplessly, and raised her right hand to write something vaguely in mid-air.

"I'm talking about Rin Taro, you're almost rumored to be a copper smelter..."

Although the degree is indeed a bit... well, it's a bit strange, but in such a situation where they are about to part, it is really understandable for Miki Nozomi to do such a thing.

Isn't it just staying together without leaving?Isn't it just cooking and eating as before?Isn't it because the other party prefers acting like a baby (?)?

Isn't this... normal?

But others don't know!

"Copper smelting? Is that how it is said?"

The pen in his hand stopped, Mori Ogai thought for a while, and answered calmly.

"It's copper smelting just like this? So stupid people are stupid everywhere, and stupid people have all kinds of stupid methods. But..."

He turned to Miki Nozomi.

"There's no need to estimate what other people think, it's just gossip and gossip, as long as you know what's going on with you."

As soon as the words were spoken, the door of the office was opened, and Koyo Ozaki, who was dressed in a kimono, walked into the room looking elegant but aggressive.

"Master Ogai."

She first looked around the room, focusing on Nozomi Miki, and turned to Mori Ogai after she found that the little girl was in good spirits and indeed healthy.

"Is there something wrong, Ozaki-kun?"

Putting down the pen, Mori Ogai straightened his body and asked the question knowingly.

"It's not a big deal."

The posture is dignified and the movements are graceful.Ozaki Koyo covered the corners of her lips and said something that seemed normal.

"It's just that when I wanted to drink tea with Axi recently, I couldn't see her. You also know that my concubine always cares about little girls."

Of course she knew the gossip outside, but she didn't come here for the so-called copper smelting gossip. After all, she could see exactly what Miki Nozomi and Mori Ogai were like, and the so-called copper smelting was nonsense.

But even that would be too much to keep Ash from leaving.

It was originally limited to several areas of the Hong Kong Hei Building, but now it has shrunk to a place where only Mori Ogai himself is.

When you are a little girl, what do you say, do you not need anything else? ? ?

"So it is."

Mori Ogai sighed, put his fingers on the table, and looked at Koyo Ozaki.

"If this is the case, then Ozaki-kun can quit from today."

Ozaki Momiji: ? ? ?

Stop doing?What are you talking about? ? ?

The dark purple eyes were obviously serious, and there was even some heart-pounding stagnation flowing in them.

"Because Xi-chan has other arrangements in the future."

"Other arrangements?"

Ozaki Koyo's gaze met Mori Ogai's gaze, one was full of inquiry and suspicion, while the other was still looking at it with ease.

A few seconds later, Koyo Ozaki took the lead to look away.

"In this case, the concubine knows it."

Knowing that this was not the time to question the leader, she took one last look at Miki Nozomi on the other side before leaving gracefully.

The gate was closed, blocking people on both sides, Ozaki Koyo continued to move forward, preparing to return to her own place.

Unexpectedly, a butterfly with shimmering light caught up to her, flew around her, and landed in the palm of her hand.

【Dear Ozaki Momiji

I'm sorry I can't explain to Hongye-san, but it will be finished in a few days, Hongye-san, don't blame Rintaro (*/ω＼*)】

The letter paper turned into a faint light and disappeared, Ozaki Momiji softened her expression, and finally turned into a faint sigh.

So, why are good girls being targeted by scumbags?Did Mori Ogai save the world in his previous life?Otherwise, why would a sensible child like Axi worry about him?

Outside, Koyo Ozaki gradually left, but inside the house, another scene emerged.

"Oh, it's so hard to be a villain—"

With a protracted voice, Mori Ogai lay on his desk, moaning as if he was dying.

You have to hide it, you have to make troubles, and you have to be a villain.

Why do you feel like you've been taking the blame?

"What are you talking about, Rintaro?"

Finally finished writing another letter, after setting the time, Miki Nozomi nodded in satisfaction and complained as she watched the butterfly disappear in front of her.

"You are now a member of the villain's army."

They are all the leaders of a mafia, so what about villains?

"But Xi-chan doesn't pay much attention to me recently..."

There was even a sense of grievance in the voice, like a black cat that didn't get attention, meowing around in front of you, and even actively hooked its tail around your calf, looking like you don't care. Touch me like I won't let go.

Very clingy.

"Because I think Rintaro is clingy enough."

Answering very straightforwardly, Nozomi Miki didn't write any more letters, but rested her chin on her cheek, counting Mori Ogai's recent actions.

"It feels like you've gone to a strange place forever, and you always want to be sticky, and you act like a baby too many times."

If she hadn't really insisted, the other party probably wanted to hug her and move, it really made her not know what to say.

It was obvious that she was the one who was about to die, but it seemed that the other party's reaction was more "intense" than her client.

Yes, intense.

This was something she had never thought about. She thought that with Mori Ogai's rationality, it should be quite normal to sell her.

However, the reality is completely different from her imagination.

"But it's a normal reaction for me."

Having straightened his body again, Mori Ogai stared at Nozomi Miki, as if he was talking about a conclusion that he could not violate.

"It's a reaction that normal people would have."

But you are not normal.

Thinking of this in her heart, Miki Nozomi pursed her lips.

"But Rintaro you should know."

The brown eyes meet the dark purple ones, which are also "calm", but turbulent hidden.

At this moment, Mori Ogai seemed to feel a suffocating feeling again, and followed that gaze a little bit, tightly wrapped around his body.

He realized something again.

At this moment, Miki Hibisomori Ogai is more rational in matters related to her life.

The rationality that Mori Ogai is proud of, the rationality that Rintaro dismisses.

she says--

"At this time, it is the best choice to cool down with me."
