The relaxed and happy atmosphere that was just mentioned turned into ice almost instantly.

Everyone looked at Ito dumbfounded, and it wasn't until 1 minute later that Skuvalo yelled: "That's absolutely impossible!"

Having said that, he once again glanced at Ito, who was looking at this side with a calm expression, but subconsciously lowered his voice: "The position of the ten generations belongs to the boss!"

Uncompromising about this kind of remarks, Ito waited politely for him to finish, and continued: "Go to Japan tomorrow, and Xanxus will wake up tomorrow night, and then the day after tomorrow, I can go back to the United States."

"I have been on leave for almost a week, which will affect the teachers' evaluation of me, and it will not be good for future university applications."

He arranged his itinerary flatly and compactly, acting arrogantly as if there would be no obstacles in the middle.

"But!" Scuvaro said again: "If the boss can only be released through this humiliating method, then the boss will not be happy even if he comes out!"

"I think he'd rather stay inside and one day he can come out by himself."

Under the deep shadow of the tree, the silver-haired swordsman's expression was firm, as if he wasn't the one who cared about Ito in an oblique way just now, as long as it involved xanxus, even if it was only related to the dignity of xanxus, he would not be afraid of any difficulties, and he didn't care about the difficulties in front of him. Who is standing.

——Perseverance, consistency, and almost desperate attachment to one thing can make the most ordinary people shine like diamonds.

What's more, this person himself is also a gem.

Ito looked at him for a long time, and answered calmly after a while: "I don't think xanxus has any reason to be dissatisfied."

"First, we are the ones who swear allegiance to Judaimu, not Xanxus. He can completely ignore this oath."

"Second, if he really wants the position of Judaime, then a man needs to have the courage and awareness to start from scratch at any time, and then rebuild the team to defeat Judaime. Isn't that what he should do?"

"Third, in fact, I think the future Judaimu is very suitable for xanxus. After all, for a rebellious and unruly person like xanxus, only a weak and tolerant leader will not care about his behavior. .”

——Of course Ito knows what kind of person that 12-year-old Tsunayoshi Sawada is, which is why he made such a decision.

His reasoning was so rigorous that Varian and the others couldn't say anything against it. After a while, they accepted it awkwardly.

However, Judaime was a bit softer than Varian imagined.

……

The summer in Japan is far more sultry than in Sicily. Even though it is almost evening, the temperature shows no signs of dropping. It seems that the temperature will not stop until it makes people faint. It is visible to the naked eye that even the ground is hot. exuding high temperature.

And because Varian was about to hold a solemn swearing-in ceremony, all of them wore strict black suits, white shirts buttoned to the top, black ties, and polished black leather shoes. Completely serious and rigorous mafia image.

However, even the killer is still a human being. The consequence of being fully armed in such weather is that even if he only took a few steps, he still keeps sweating from his body.

The high temperature coupled with the unwilling [willingness] made them all keep a high degree of silence, and no one wanted to talk.

After giving a cold glance at Belphegor, who seemed to be unable to suppress his murderous aura due to irritability, as a warning, Ito turned his head and saw the person on the file, the target of his trip, the future leader of Vongola, Sawada Gang Ji.

In a remote dark alley in Bingsheng, the object of their allegiance is being surrounded by a group of laughing and laughing peers, and they are sitting on the ground crying.

The childish voice that has not yet fully grown is childish and full of innocence, but the words spoken are more cruel than the blade, "Sawada can't do anything.", "Sawada can't do anything.", "Sawada is a good-for-nothing .”

They say so.

It is a fairly common bullying scene in the streets and alleys, if the person being bullied is not the person named Tsunayoshi Sawada.

——Children of the traditional mafia already know how to hold a gun before they learn to read and write, and when they really enter the school age, they also already know how to suppress others by showing their strength , or gain a foothold in the group through other means.

And when they are 12 years old, they have usually experienced the training of the battlefield, and at least they know what killing is all about.

——The scene of being laughed at by a few unarmed ordinary people would never appear even in a dream.

So even though it has been clearly learned from the data that the future Judaimu has a gentle personality and is a child who has never been exposed to the mafia world, Varian is still stunned in shock.

And it wasn't until a while later that Scovaro spoke first: "We would never..." Swear allegiance to a guy like that!Not even a strategy.

He wanted to say so.

But after Ito's plain glance, he immediately silenced, yes, although he didn't say it clearly, but it's the kind of eyes that look like a fool, the future boss is a weak guy and has nothing to do with you. It's unbearable.

It's as if IQ has been lowered by a level out of thin air.

"..." After glancing at Ito's side face again a little irritatedly, Skuvalo continued: "Then shall we?"

He paused at this point, and then asked with a very strange expression: "Shall we help Judaime?"

It's just bad, linking the words Judaime and needing help.

"No need." Ito immediately gave an answer. He looked at the scene over there expressionlessly-the situation had changed from ridicule at the beginning to blackmail, and the victim's expression became even more pitiful. The ground was roughly pulled up and then pushed to the ground again.

"I think Judaime will not want anyone to see him in such a mess in the future." Ito replied calmly.

This is normal. If the superior is seen as weak and incompetent by his followers, what will he do in the future?Maybe he will be grateful at the moment of being saved, but in the end, he will feel humiliated by it, and even when he sees the savior back then, he will think of the humiliating memory of wanting to be exiled to an unknown space forever... So the most sensible , is to keep silent and turn a blind eye at such times.

Of course, Ito doesn't think that's wrong. After all, this is human nature-always longing to be respected and admired, rather than being looked down upon and pitied.

Even the bombast who brings up previous setbacks after success is just another way to show off his strength.

So I just stood there silently, watching the perpetrators take away all the money from Sawada, watching Sawada cry on the ground for a while, and slowly get up little by little while leaning on the wall , crying while walking home.

Ito and the others continued to follow in silence.

Indifferent to the grief of the weeper, and without any doubts about the fact that Kudaime chose such a successor, Ito paid more attention to the fact that he wanted to give the other party equal dignity-at least in terms of posture.

He waited patiently for the other party to stop crying.

After all, in any case, Ito believes that in order to avoid worrying his mother, Sawada will at least stop before arriving home.

But he was obviously wrong, maybe the injury on his body was too painful, or maybe it was just too much ridiculed by his bad classmates. Of course, the most likely reason is that this boy is far from mature...

Even though he was about to see the door of the house soon, he still showed no sign of stopping.

Ito silently considered the time needed to return to the voyage at night, he hesitated for the first time, and decided to move forward.

Yes, unlike the usual almost omnipotent posture, Ito only feels bitter about this crying little boy.

——In his deep-rooted cognition, a creature like a man must never shed tears. The so-called tough guy principle that a man bleeds but not tears is Ito's life creed that has been implemented until now, even if it is ridiculous, but Ito insists that, As a pure man, he never cried even when he was born, of course, the premise is that if he was really lucky to be born like an ordinary person.

So now, he really didn't know what to do with such a limp little boy.

He walked a few steps quickly, stood in front of Sawada, and stared at him silently—the other person looked very embarrassed, on the once white and smooth legs and arms, a large area of ​​bright red was wiped out by the ground, mixed with gray dust , slightly oozing blood.

But this is nothing to Ito, his eyes are more focused on the swollen peach-like eyes of the other party, where there are still big drops of tears constantly overflowing, as if they will never stop The same, making people feel both pitiful and incredible.

Then it seemed that because the road was completely blocked, at the moment of Ito's calm observation, Sawada finally stopped in doubt, and his eyes first moved up along Ito's straight black trousers, skipping the hem of the suit that also had no wrinkles , white and neat but still faintly visible the broad chest of majestic muscles, skipping the Adam's apple that trembled slightly just because he was brewing vocabulary, and finally rested on that serious and majestic face.

Sawada subconsciously stopped crying, took a step back, and the remaining tears in the corners of his eyes drooped faster with his movement, reflecting the sunlight in the air, flashing a crystal-clear color.

"You're crying." As if touched by Sawada's change, Ito finally stopped embarrassing himself, no longer emphasized the need to pick out the right words, but said dryly.

—Of course he knew it was nonsense, but could he say something else at this time?At least Ito didn't know.

Moreover, even nonsense cleverly hides three meanings: first, it points out the fact that the other party is crying; second, it is a tactful reminder to the other party not to cry anymore; third and most importantly, it implies The speaker will not pursue the privacy of the other party...

However, looking at Sawada who paused briefly, and even hiccupped because he seemed to be frightened again, Ito thought calmly, the other party didn't seem to realize even a single layer of meaning.

After a moment of silence, Ito stretched out his hand to his front right, and there was Skuvalo who had just followed up.

Although Ito didn't know exactly what Ito was thinking, Schwaro almost tacitly handed out the pocket square he stuffed in the top pocket of his left suit.

After receiving the silk scarf, Ito was silent again, then pressed the square scarf onto Sawada's face, and wiped away his tears as gently as possible.

Sawada was completely stunned.

"You, you, you, you..." Perhaps the other party's attitude was so silent that it made people feel a little gentle. After a while, the little animal with honey-colored hair who was planning to escape for the first time A trembling sound came out once.

"Makoto Ito." Completely ignoring the strangeness in the voice, seeing that the other party was able to communicate, Ito withdrew his hand and introduced himself with a serious expression, "Your future subordinate."

"I came here this time to swear allegiance to you."

——The man who was at least two heads taller than Sawada said so with a serious face.
