Do not sleep

The cherry blossoms in the garden are in bloom.

Dressed in a light coffee kimono in unlined clothes, with playful short silver hair on top of his head, the child who is not much higher than the table looks very delicate.

Surprisingly, very powerful.

The old man with snow-white hair and wrinkled face sat in a wheelchair with blank eyes and looked thin, but the chair and the person were actually quite heavy.

The silver-haired child pushed the wheelchair with steady hands.

"Dad, the cherry blossoms are blooming."

"I want to eat sakura pancakes."

"But sakura cake is so difficult to make, Hotaru can't learn it."

"It's still delicious made by my mother."

Hotaru pushed the wheelchair and chatted while walking.

The old man in the wheelchair didn't respond to him, but Hotaru didn't care.

It is a common problem of the elderly that they become forgetful when they get older, sometimes sober and sometimes confused.

"Dad, I saw my future colleagues."

"Hakata is also in the same Honmaru, don't worry, I will take care of myself."

Hearing this, the old man seemed to have some light in his empty eyes.

The old man stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to hold something, but it was in vain.

Hotaru hurriedly grabbed the old man's hanging hand, knelt down and put the old man's hand on top of her head.

The old man gently stroked Yingwan's head, and spoke in a vague way.

"well."

Hotaru smiled and rubbed the old man's hand.

"Father, may I make you some tea?"

The old man didn't respond.

Hotaru gently put the old man's hand into the thin blanket on the old man's body, and pushed the old man to the gazebo not far away.

"Kenji Ida, founder of the Ida Consortium in the last century, adoptive father of Hotaru."

"Adopted father?" Akashi/National Bank, who was hungover all night, dragged his head that was about to explode/explode, and sat around with everyone to listen to Fox's investigation results.

It is quite rare for Daojian Fusangshen to regard human beings as fathers.

"That Kenji Ida is not ordinary." Honosuke looked at the information on the holographic screen in amazement.

"Kenji Ida was born into a wealthy family, but his family went bankrupt when he was just an adult. The Ida Consortium was established when he was 22 years old. In just over ten years, he has been promoted to a world-class company. The speed of development can be described as rapid."

"However, the person who inherits the Ida Foundation is not named Ida, but Sakai." Honosuke said strangely.

"Not Ida?" Akashi/National Bank thought deeply.

"Sakai is Madam's last name." It was Toshiro Hakata who answered everyone's questions.

"Ma'am?" Wu Hu backed away and tilted his head.

"It's Hotaru's adoptive mother, the wife of Mr. Ida Kenji." Hakata Toshiro has worked in the Ida Foundation for decades, so he knows a thing or two about some things that are not clear in the information.

"Old Mr. Ida's family went bankrupt when he was young, and almost everyone in the family died except for him. In order to make a comeback, he married the eldest daughter of the Sakai family, that is, his wife."

"Wow, this is a marriage." Five Tigers listened with gusto while eating melon seeds.

"..." Hakata Toshiro.

"My wife was born with a poor physique and could not conceive an heir, so the two have never had children." Hakata Toshiro continued.

"In addition, there is Yingwan Chenghuan at the knees, so Mr. Ida and his wife have no obsession with children. Later, Mr. Ida retired to the second line and handed over the Ida consortium to his wife's natal nephew to take care of it."

"Wait a minute, didn't they adopt Hotaru because they didn't have children?" Akashi/Kuniko asked.

"Of course not," Hakata Fujishiro pushed his glasses, "As far as I know, Hotaru has been with Mr. Ida a long time ago, and he was summoned by Mr. Ida."

"Look here!" Wuhu Tui, who was listening to Hakata Toshiro's memories with one mind and two minds while staring at Foxnosuke flipping through the materials, pointed to a line of words on the screen in surprise.

"Didn't you say that Yingwan is a sword wandering in the world?" Wuhu Tui was surprised and asked.

"Why is there a proof of Hotaru's employment in the Government of Time on the document."

Wu Hutui squinted his eyes and took a closer look, shocked.

"There's also the salary. I haven't seen what the salary looks like since I returned to the Government of Time." Five Tigers retreated.

Is there any reason.

...Because you have never been out in the battle, where do you get the salary if you don't work, Fox Nosuke squinted.
