[Comprehensive] Zongxiang, draw the knife!

"Well, what's the matter?"

There was no answer on the other end of the phone for a long time, Natsume Takashi patiently repeated the question.

"... Kishi, it's me."

The woman's voice was soft and hoarse with a hint of exhaustion. It sounded familiar, but Natsume Takashi couldn't remember who it was for a while.

In fact, Natsume Yuno doesn't care, whether this cousin can tell it's her through the distorted voice, she just wants to pass the news of where she is to Natsume's family, it doesn't matter who answers the phone, as long as the grandfather can know the news up.

Well, she originally just wanted to report one more place name.

I thought so.

Then I heard my cousin's fat cat yelling, "Natsume, let's go eat dessert! Dessert! If you don't go, it will be robbed!"

"Mr. Cat, no one will snatch it from you!" The boy who answered the phone couldn't help but reply.

"... Fat Sanhua, you won't even be able to dance anymore!" Yuno couldn't bear it anymore.

"Eh?" The Sanhua Fat Cat, whose body is as smooth as a rice cake, heard the voice, and came over excitedly, scratching the screen of the phone with its short paws, and shouted happily, "Little girl, why are you calling?"

The only person who can call Madara in the form of a cat teacher "Fat Sanhua" is Natsume Yuno who has been married and left Natsume's house for half a year.

"I'm sorry I didn't hear it just now—" Natsume Takashi was frightened, and hurriedly pushed away Mr. Cat's chubby cat face, took the phone back and put it next to his ear.

——The irritable sound of the cat grinding its claws finally disappeared.

"Cousin, your voice sounds like... Are you in good health?" The young man asked cautiously.

Natsume Yuno pinched her throat and coughed dryly twice. She hadn't had a sip of water since last night, which really made her voice sound very hoarse.

"I'm fine, at least not yet." She said, "Guizhi, is your grandfather there?"

"Uh, grandpa..." Natsume Takashi paused, "Cousin, if you have anything, I will convey it on your behalf."

Grandfather is not at home.

This is really bad news.

Natsume Yuno is very clear that everything in the Natsume family is decided by his grandfather alone. As the only relative of the old man, Yuno has not had the slightest right to speak there for several years, and his cousin Takashi has only been brought back for more than half a year. What power do you have?

No—but maybe the old man will be more tolerant of him because he is a boy?

Natsume Yuno hesitated for a while before saying, "Takashi, can you contact Grandfather?"

Mr. Natsume disappeared, and the length of time was far longer than her, and he himself insisted that it was not disappearance, but going out to collect inspiration.

Although my grandfather is only a writer, he has a huge influence on society, so he is valued by the government.Yuno doesn't understand why Morintaro is afraid of his grandfather, but it's certain that Mr. Natsume's face will be given to him.

The young man who received the call in Natsume's old house was silent for a moment, full of apology: "Sorry, cousin... Grandpa can't get in touch with anyone when he goes out."

...Of course I know this. Didn't I want to test your precious grandson, did you receive preferential treatment at his old man's house?

Yuno sighed.

Forest Taro left her enough time to freshen up and change clothes, but this did not mean that she could always escape in the room.

The ghost knows that after a long time, why would this man go crazy?

"Listen to Takashi, find a way to get in touch with grandfather, or the uncle who claims to be a friend of his grandfather and opened a detective agency... Fukuzawa, Fukuzawa Yukichi, right?" Natsume Yuno reported the place name here, panting He took a breath before continuing, "Tell him that I was kidnapped by the boss of the port mafia, Mori Ogai!"

Natsume Takashi: "——!!!"

The next second the phone hung up.

In any case, he got in touch with the outside...Natsume Yuno didn't want to think too much about whether Morin Taro kept this phone on purpose, as long as it can be used.

After throwing down the phone, she sat by the bed for a moment.

Finally got up, like a soldier going to meet the war, she solemnly walked out of the room.

After she came out, she found that not only was her room furnishing unchanged from seven years ago, but also almost unchanged in other places.

On a conspicuous place on the wall, hung a large photo of her as a child, being hugged by Morintaro and sitting on the man's lap.

At that time, the man was still a silly quack doctor, the son of a small down-and-out family who was gnawing at the family's money, and he was not good at socializing, because the girl's closeness would make him happy for a long time.

Yuno remembered that it was their first photo taken together.

The photographer's skills are not very high. The young man in front of the camera has a young and handsome face, and he should be able to easily win the favor of women, but he only focuses on the little girl who is carefully circled in his arms.

Rintaro is staring at the camera stiffly and nervously, while the girl in his arms is smiling brightly and innocently.

The two years in the small clinic should be the happiest time in Yu Nai's life.

The man she thought was her father was held in her palm and cared for carefully.

Live a paradise-like life with only each other.

"I have come out of that time, but you still can't let it go?" Natsume Yuno quietly looked at the rows of photos, watching the girls grow up and the men becoming mature and handsome.

After walking down this long aisle, she stopped in front of the last photo.

It was taken on her 16th birthday.

The girl with a bright smile learns to fold her hands lightly in front of her body when she sits down, showing her beauty and restraint to the camera.

This is her solo photo.

It should have been in the same frame as Forest Taro.

It's just that he was in Italy at the time, negotiating with the veteran mafia party, the Pengo Lie family, and he couldn't come back.

Also taking advantage of that time when he went abroad, not long after his birthday, Yuno fled the mansion after turning into a cat once.

"He only has eyes on you. Even if you have been away for so many years, no one is allowed to destroy the original furnishings in the house."

Behind Natsume Yuno, a cold voice stated the facts.

Yuno didn't look back, she ran her fingers along the glass framed with the photos, she curled her lips and smiled slightly, "Then you sisters are really useless, I have given way, and the two of them worked hard together and failed to capture Lin Taro's love."

The girl who appeared behind Natsume Yuno had a face that looked too sad. She should be very cute, but the panic about her future life made her unable to hide her inner panic, which was reflected on her bright face.

As if covering the sun with clouds and rain, she looked sadly at Yuno, a woman who had a similar experience to her own but was much luckier.

Desolately, "I'm almost 13 years old. Mr. Mori doesn't like girls over 12 years old. You know it best, don't you? Sister Jasmine, please help me. My sister has been dealt with by Mr. Mori not long ago. I lost it, I don't want... to end up like that."

She looked longingly at Natsume Yuno, desperately trying to grab the last chance.

"Ayu, that's not what you said when you drove me away?"

Yuno's eyes were extremely cold, and he said with a slight smile.

"Didn't you say that you want to dominate Lin Taro for the rest of your life?"
