Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 347

Fuyumi was not without the criticism she received from some people.

She doesn't care.

I'm just very worried that my father will be affected.

A very bad reputation will definitely have a negative impact on one's image.

Their work will also be affected.

Dongshi didn't know the specifics of her father's work, but she sensed that it was very difficult.

Therefore, I've been very anxious lately.

Recently, I've noticed that Haruno takes care of Ichika, Yotsuba, Kirisu Miharu, and others like an older sister.

Therefore, I have a very reliable impression of Yang Nai.

That's why Fuyumi mustered up the courage to ask.

She originally wanted to ask Chitanda.

But that would probably put a lot of burden on the innocent-minded Chitanda.

The older Haruno-nee is more reliable...

Although she couldn't call him "older sister" because of work, Fuyumi still called Hino "older sister" in her heart.

After all, Harunoichi did a much better job after arriving at the mansion.

Dongshi also observed and learned secretly.

They even developed feelings of worship and admiration for it.

"If you're asking me this, does that mean you approve of Father remarrying?"

"……Yes."

"Are you hesitating about how to bring it up with your father?"

"……Yes."

Why not just say what's on your mind?

"……really."

Yang Nai remained silent. So you just want to talk to me, right?

She genuinely didn't believe that Dongshi wouldn't be unaware of something that even an ordinary person could think of.

Considering that Fuyumi is more likely to be in dire need of someone to confide in right now.

Yang then started talking to Fuyumi.

The two stood in a corner of the outer corridor to supervise, with no one around, so even if they talked, no one would hear them.

Therefore, Yang Nai made up her mind to become a caring older sister.

There was nothing she could do; she just looked the oldest...

Isn't there a single woman older than her?

Despite feeling depressed, Yang calmly comforted Dongshi.

An hour passed.

Having already comforted Fuyumi, Haruno greeted Hiroto and then left wearing her family charm.

She was in a very good mood since it was a rare opportunity to go out on business.

He was dressed in a simple outfit that was much lighter and more comfortable than that of an ordinary servant.

In addition, there is a family talisman that can prove one's identity.

This put her in a good mood.

The thought of having another "little sister" filled me with a bittersweet feeling.

Until Yang Nai went to the manor to verify the person's identity...

That's when everything changed.

At the entrance of the manor, Yang Nai saw two familiar faces—Kiyotaka and Masato.

Kiyotaka, Shizuko's older brother, gives off an unfathomable impression.

Zhengren was her father's good friend and considered her elder.

At this moment!

What Yang saw was Masato bowing deeply, looking as if he were sincerely apologizing to Kiyotaka.

Kiyotaka, however, remained calm, showing neither joy nor anger, and was unmoved by the apology.

"Did Uncle Masato offend Lord Kiyotaka?"

"But based on my understanding of Lord Kiyotaka, he wouldn't do anything without a reason."

Yang's thoughts raced, and he instinctively took a step back.

For her.

Shizuko's brother is dangerous, but not too dangerous.

Because it gives people the feeling of "I won't offend others unless they offend me".

At the same time, it will make her laugh, whether it's her or others.

That smile reminded Yang Nai of Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kyosuke Kosaka's smile is gentle and kind, but that's only for people he's close to.

Yang felt very honored to have experienced this.

Similarly, Shizuko's brother was the same.

Therefore, Ryou realized that Kiyotaka might have a similar side to Kousaka Kyosuke.

That is, show no mercy to the enemy!

What if, what if the uncle I know is an enemy, and then the uncle comes to me for help?

What should I do?

Yang didn't want to face this problem.

She's leaving!

And we must tell our mother quickly!

If the politician insists on going to his father, the problem will become serious!

—Yes, Yang had heard about her father's coincidental encounter with Masato before, which is why she made this guess.

"Although Lord Kiyotaka is far inferior to Lord Kyosuke, their experiences are similar."

"Both of them earned their positions through bloody extermination and were promoted accordingly; their will was absolutely unwavering."

"My father, being soft-hearted, pleaded with Lord Kiyotaka... I think this is very inappropriate!"

Yang made a decision quickly.

I'll go home and warn them first!

Although I don't want my mother to continue to work so hard, the situation doesn't allow it!

Yang began to quietly retreat...

Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate!

Yang Nai immediately encountered an extremely awkward problem.

Just as she was backing away.

A group of people approached from quite a distance, making rustling sounds.

Both Kiyotaka Ayanokoji and Masato were drawn to it.

“…” Ayanokouji remained silent. What a coincidence.

In fact, Ayanokoji discovered her the moment Haruno began to hesitate.

Ayanokoji, who was observing carefully out of the corner of his eye, also noticed that Haruno might know the man in front of him, Masato.

This is not good news for Ayanokouji.

After all, what he wanted to do was sever Hachiman's connection with his other classmates.

Especially the son of the estate manager named "Hayato".

That was someone Ayanokouji absolutely wouldn't allow to appear in front of him, or even near Hachiman!

"He sacrificed Hachi's interests for the sake of other classmates, maintaining the stability of the group..."

"I don't want to comment on this. I only know that it is very likely to affect my and Ah-Ba's work at present."
