age is not a problem

After chasing a few steps away, looking around, there were not many people on the streets of the island. Qingmei looked around and found that the figure she had just seen was not there.

Rubbing his chin thoughtfully with one hand, he lowered the brim of the hat he was wearing with the other.

Actually, she shouldn't have chased him out so impulsively just now, but that figure flashed by so fast, she just saw it by chance.There is no extra time to think, and it is necessary to seize the opportunity, so she immediately chased after him without explaining to Nicole.

As a result... still can't find it...

She can be sure that she is not dazzled, that figure really exists... Wait, since that person disappeared so quickly, doesn't it mean that the other person may also be avoiding her?Or, it just flashed by so suddenly, but just happened to be seen by her, just to lure her out on purpose?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was very strange, and for a while, Qingmei felt a rare feeling of chills all over her body and hairs standing on end.

until--

"... Asakawa?" An uncertain voice sounded from behind.

And this voice also made Qingmei turn around suddenly. After seeing someone calling her, she stared at him with wide-open eyes through the sunglasses she was wearing, and the other person also looked at her incredulously.

Kiyomi: "Sawa... Sawada?"

The boy in front of him was very familiar. A few days ago, they were still getting along in the school in Tokyo without incident.

And at this moment, they met on this small island in the Mediterranean by such a coincidence, if it was a coincidence... the devil would believe it!

Without waiting for Tsunayoshi's reaction, Kiyomi decided to strike first, "Hey, Sawada, didn't you say that you would spend the holidays with your parents who are working abroad?"

"Using Japan as a reference point... isn't this a foreign country?" Tsunaki complained silently, and after receiving the dead fish eyes cast by Qingmei who took off her sunglasses, she cleared her throat and said, "Hmm... My father is currently working in southern Europe, and I happened to come to this island today to play."

"Are you alone? Or with your family...father, mother, brother, etc?" Qingmei asked casually.

Gang Ji shook his head: "I came with my friends, and... I don't have an older brother either."

Tsuna Yoshi vaguely felt a little strange. It is normal for people to mention "father" and "mother" when they ask this kind of question, but if they are not very clear about other people's family structure, they usually don't add "brother" on purpose. .

Although he didn't explicitly tell her that he was an only child...but he probably never said that he had any older brothers.

"Oh, that's it." Qingmei couldn't tell if she had accepted Tsunayoshi's rhetoric in her tone, but she still smiled innocently and said: "What a coincidence, I also came here for tourism, after all I’m also half Italian, so I haven’t come back to see it for a long time.”

Gang Ji: "...", this kind of coincidence is not convincing at all, but he can't refute anything.

At the same time, a guess arose in his heart... Could it be that the fact that he came to the Lipari Islands to search for rough stones has been leaked?This shouldn't be, this matter was decided last night, and there are very few people who know his real intention to go out today.At least he believes that among the few people who know about this matter, it is absolutely impossible for there to be a leaker.

Just when the two sides stood awkwardly and looked at each other——

"Gang, I bought water." Not far away, Takeshi Yamamoto, who came over with two bottles of mineral water, said to Tsuna.

He just went to buy water. Because the island is sparsely populated, small shops such as convenience stores are not easy to find, and it took a little effort.In the end, after finally buying it back, I saw Gang Ji talking about these things with a girl... Was it a coincidence that he met someone he knew?Moreover, this little girl looks familiar, as if she has seen it somewhere.

Kiyomi looked at Yamamoto, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "Sawada, this is... your friend? I thought you were not very social, but I never thought you could become friends with adults who are so different in age, and come out together What about traveling?"

For a moment, Yamamoto couldn't figure out what the two of them were talking about, but hearing what the other party meant... it should be because they didn't know about Tsunayoshi's body.Before determining the attributes of the opponent's friend or foe, Yamamoto decided to temporarily put on a sunny smile on the sidelines, and then wait and see what happened.

Gangji had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "This is... Brother Wu, he is my father's assistant at work. He took good care of me before, so we will come out to play together today. Brother Wu, this is Qingmei Asakawa, it is me Classmates in Japan."

After saying this, Yamamoto suddenly remembered... ah, it was that time when Liu Dao Mukuro gave them a live broadcast, the girl who performed the stage play with A Gang.Ah ha ha ha, no wonder he was quite impressed, the girl's singing voice was so powerful, I remember that when he was watching the live broadcast, he almost thought he saw Santuchuan at the end.

"Ah...it's really a good job. Today is a working day, but I can go out with my boss's son for vacation. I'm really enviable." Qingmei sighed with envy and hatred.

Gang Ji: "...", maybe he should just shut up.

Just when the atmosphere became more awkward...

"Qingmei, you..." Nicole, who was chasing after him, turned the corner of the street, and was a little startled when he saw two Asian men standing opposite Qingmei.

And the faces of these two Japanese men are the ones he saw in the materials of Bingsheng Middle School...

When Tsuna saw Nicole, he was neither surprised nor surprised.

It was the western man he had seen in the bombed hotel before, the man he had investigated but couldn't find any flaws from the information he could collect.It's surprising that this person is here, but if Qingmei's identity is indeed extraordinary, then it's not too surprising that the two know each other.

Yamamoto asked with a bright face, "Is this your boyfriend, little sister? It seems that his age is much different from yours."

Sensing that the other party seemed to be a little bit retaliation for her complaint about the age difference between the two of them just now, it seemed that she was a dark underbelly, so Qingmei replied without changing her face and heartbeat:

"No, he's my brother."

Tsunayoshi & Yamamoto: "...", this is not convincing just by looking at it!

Nicole also glared at Qingmei... What kind of stupid excuses are you looking for!Is your brain out of whack?

Yamamoto continued to smile and said: "But... you two look more like a mixed race of East and West, little sister, while your brother looks more like a pure Westerner."

Qingmei also continued to argue without changing her face, "Can't we be half-brothers and sisters?"

Nicole almost wanted to cover his face... Please, can you not just put a green hat on my dad so casually, can you let him talk to God quietly in heaven, can't you make the old man so angry What can I do if I cheat...

They may be shrewd in their hearts, but on the surface they still talk about each other in a mess, Qingmei also took the lead and said: "In this case, I won't disturb your play, see you again when you have a chance... However, the size of this island itself It’s not that big, maybe it won’t be long before we ‘coincidentally’ meet again.”

After finishing speaking, he signaled Nicole to leave with her with his eyes.

Just after turning around and walking a few steps away——

"Asakawa, wait...!" Tsunayoshi said suddenly.

Originally, there were some words in her heart that were ready to come out, but when she saw the front, the moment she turned her head to look at him under the sun, and looked at those secret but dazzling eyes, those words were finally swallowed back and changed into :

"When traveling around the island...be careful."

"Don't worry, I will be careful of the people I should be careful of." Qingmei said meaningfully, but turned and raised her eyebrows, and asked half-seriously and half-jokingly: "Then if I really encounter any danger, Will you come and save me?"

She just asked a question that she didn't expect any answer and didn't really want to know the answer. Qingmei walked away quickly without waiting for the other party's answer.

……

"The Asian boy just now looks exactly the same as the mysterious boy in the graduate database of Bingsheng Middle School ten years ago. Tell me, this boy will really be someone from the Pengo Lie family as you guessed in the fantasy department. A high-level clone?"

"There is also that tall man, who looks very similar to the son of the owner of the original Bamboo Sushi restaurant, the boy named Takeshi Yamamoto in the database... If there is no accident, it should be him. "

"I don't think their coming here has anything to do with us. After all, the purpose of our coming here has nothing to do with the Pengo Li family, but it is an unexpected gain to be able to investigate the information of the Peng Li family... Hey , are you listening to me?"

After walking away, Nicole talked for a long time alone, but did not get a reply from Qingmei.When I turned my head to look, I saw her looking down with her head down in deep thought.

Qingmei was still thinking about the figure she saw just now, even though the figure passed by in a flash, she still caught it... that man, he looks like an adult version of Tsunayoshi Sawada!

That's why she rushed after him impulsively.

In the end, she didn't catch up with the target person, but accidentally ran into Sawada Tsunayoshi who came from another direction. Her subconscious first reaction was... Could it be that the other person is really also a drug patient?But after seeing the other party's well-fitting and well-fitting clothes, and the other party's appearance that did not seem to be deliberately disguised, the doubts were dispelled.

Then I wondered if that man might be Tsunayoshi's older brother... In the end, he was also rejected by the other party, and it didn't look like he was lying.

... Is it true that one is a clone of the other as she said before?

Or, there is a bigger secret hidden in it?Even something that neither she nor Sawada Tsunayoshi himself knows is going on quietly?

But no matter what, these few days, this island may not be peaceful anymore.

……

As if to test her premonition, when she was staying in a hotel on the island for a rest, Qingmei, who was looking for the remote control of the air conditioner, opened the drawer of the table in the room and found that there was quietly placed in the drawer. A card with a string of text written on it.

At the same time, another hotel on the island, who also just checked in, found an identical card in the room.

Picking up the card, I quietly read the string of neatly arranged text on it...
