"Why are you calling me by my full name?

I'm just telling the truth. "Sanchū Ming raised his eyebrows.

"That's because you made a bet with me. If I ate eight McFlurries, you would drink ten extra large cups of iced cola."

… Was Akaji the kind of person who would make such a childish bet when he was young?!

She felt that the so-called rich kid's temperament of the Imperial Censorate was completely gone!

Momoi's ridicule was written all over her face.

She still wanted to continue asking, "And then?

Who won? "

"Seijuro."

Sanchū Ming said, "I couldn't drink anymore after three cups. In the end, Seijuro was still eating McFlurries. I told him to stop eating because he had already won. Seijuro said no.

He wanted a real victory. "

She clicked her tongue and said, "Until now, I still can't believe that there is such a serious person."

Sanchū Ming said this bet when he was young just to find a reason to drink iced cola happily.

Who knew Seishiro would have such a strong desire to win!

*

"Don't stop me!"

Akashiji Seijuro, who had eaten five McFlurries, said fiercely to her, "The victory and the tofu soup are all mine!"

It's yours, it's all yours.

Don't eat anymore!

You'll have diarrhea!

Sanchū Ming, who was young, was tongue-tied.

*

"What was your bet?"

"The tofu soup that Seijuro's mother made that night."

Satsuki Momoi, "…"

Tetsuya Kuroko, "…"

The two of you are so childish!

"Don't look like that. Auntie's tofu soup is very delicious.

We all like it very much. It would be even better if Auntie didn't add crinoline. "

"Skirt?" Tetsuya Kuroko stared at Akashiji Seijuro. "Akaji Jun … is a picky eater?"

"Yeah, he hates skirt dishes. Every time he has skirt dishes in his bowl, he will tell me that skirt dishes can make people grow taller and prettier, tricking me into eating the skirt dishes in his bowl."

Sanchū Ming suddenly turned to look at Akaji.

"Seijuro, tell me … is it because you didn't grow much?"

"Shut up." Akaji's face darkened.

"I didn't expect Akaji Jun to be so lively and mischievous when he was young." Tetsuya Kuroko couldn't help but smile.

"…"

"And he still wants to save face!"

Sanchū Ming waved his hand. "When I was young, I asked him what he didn't know. He said he knew everything."

*

"Hey, hey.

Seijuro, why do you know this and that?

Is there anything you don't know? "

"No."

"Eh?

That's not right … Oh, right.

I remember now!

My mother said,

Having children is a girl's privilege!

Boys don't!

Seijuro is lying! "

"… As long as I want to, I can do it at any time."

"Is, is Seijuro so powerful?

Does he really know how to have children? "

"… Of course!"

*

"Chi, Akaji Jun said that?"

Hearing Sanchū Ming speak in a serious tone like Akashiji Seijuro, Momoi almost spat out her cola.

"Pfft."

Zhe Jun, who was beside her, had already spat out his cola!

"That's right!

You didn't expect that, right? "

Sanchū Ming continued excitedly, "Also, also, Seijuro once met a woman in the washroom —"

"Do you still remember when you rode a bicycle in the first year of elementary school?" Akashiji Seijuro threatened with a cold face. "I remember it very clearly."

"…" Sanchū Ming completely shut up. He even gestured to tighten the non-existent zipper.

In Satsuki Momoi's heart, the image of the gentle and elegant Akashiji Seijuro, who was indifferent to favors and disgraces, and who was authoritative and dignified, had completely collapsed.

He would rub a girl's head, complain, be frightened, lose his mind, and even cut Sanchū's hair himself. He would eat eight McFlurries in one go. He was picky about his food, slyly tricked people to eat something he didn't like. He cared about his face, and even threatened people to hide his dark history …

"Akaji Jun is so cute." Satsuki Momoi blurted out.

This time, Akaji's cold and murderous gaze could no longer scare her.

Whether it was Akashiji Seijuro or Sanchū Ming, as long as the other party was around, they would be especially lively.

They were no different from her and Daigetsu. On the contrary, because the two of them were usually indifferent and calm, they seemed even cuter.

"Right, right, my Seijuro is the cutest." Sanchū Ming nodded repeatedly. When no one was paying attention, she secretly reached out to Akaji's cola.

Then, her hand was grabbed.

"Tetsuya told me that you drank two iced colas and a can of strawberry milk in the morning.

And another iced cola in the afternoon? "Akashiji Seijuro's gentle and magnetic voice sounded.

Sanchū Ming immediately looked at Tetsuya Kuroko with an accusing gaze.

Tetsuya Kuroko blinked his big round eyes and glanced out the window.

"You drank your fourth iced cola just now. Do you want to continue?"

"No, no, no, Brother Zheng. Not at all."

She shook her head like a rattle drum, and her hair swayed along with it. The rainbow color that Akaji didn't like to look at was revealed.

Without even thinking, he slapped Mitsune and Luna's swaying head.

"Akaji Jun, do you want to learn from Atsushi and crush Sanikuyue San's head?" Kuroko said suddenly.

“？？？

Brother Zheng, let's talk things over. What did I do wrong? "

"Akaji Jun and Little Moon's relationship is really good." Satsuki Momoi said while holding her chin.

"Because Auntie once saved my mom.

It's said that the two of them hit it off at first sight and were deeply in love … "Sanchū Ming poked Akashiji Seijuro." What happened next? "

"Are you talking about the marriage or the cross-dressing thing?" Akaji asked calmly.

"… What I want to say is that they enrolled us in the same kindergarten."

"If you dare to talk about marriage with someone else, I'll show your cross-dressing photos to your teammates." "Yeah, that's right," said Mitsui Yueming calmly.

Satsuki Momoi and Tetsuya Kuroko straightened their backs under Akaji's cold gaze.

Tetsuya Kuroko said, "Sanchū Ming -san, we can contact each other by email."

"Okay, okay."

Satsuki Momoi said, "Little Moon, do you mind if I go to your house to play?"

"No problem, I don't mind."

Akaji …

Akaji ate a piece of spicy chicken in silence.

"Seijuro, I'm not full …" Sanchū Ming said softly.

"What do you want to eat?" Akaji thought for a moment. "The pudding shop that we passed by?"

He remembered that Sanchū Ming had glanced at it several times.

"You're an angel." Sanchū Ming gave him a thumbs up.

"I want strawberry flavored pudding."

"You can't eat too much at night …" Akaji stood up helplessly as if he was used to being ordered around by Sanchū Ming. He asked, "Where are Momoi and Tetsuya? Do you want pudding?"

"Vanilla. Sorry to trouble you, Akaji Jun."

"I want cherry flavored pudding!

Thank you, Akaji Jun! "

Tetsuya Kuroko watched Akashiji Seijuro walk out, then turned back to look at Sanchū Ming, who had kicked him lightly when he wanted to refuse.

"Sanikuyue San?"

Sanchū Ming looked at the red-haired boy walking down the street from the window. She didn't speak until Akaji turned the corner and was completely out of her sight.

"There are a lot of people waiting in line at that shop. Seijuro won't be back for a while." Sanchū Ming tapped the table with her finger. "You can ask me what you wanted to ask me before."

"Actually, Little Moon has already told me about the question I wanted to ask." Satsuki Momoi smiled.

"As for the other question, it's better for Zhe Jun to ask."

She turned her head to look at Tetsuya Kuroko. "Zhe Jun?"

Tetsuya Kuroko didn't speak, quietly looking at Sanchū Ming.

"Is it good to look at?" Sanchū Ming asked.

"Sanikuyue San is the type of person who will look back directly when being stared at." Kuroko said, "No, not only will he look back directly, but he will even take the initiative."

"Like Seijuro?"

"Like Akaji Jun — huh?"

"Many people have said so." Sanchū Ming wasn't surprised.

"How should I say …" She thought for a moment. "Seijuro has a great influence on me.

"He made me who I am now.

"Shiori — that is, when Seijuro's mother and my mother were still alive, I was completely spoiled.

At home, there was my mother, and outside, there was Seijuro.

In the end, I didn't know anything, didn't have any common sense, and was very timid. If there was anything, I would only hide behind Seijuro. "

"… Still alive?" Momoi sensitively grasped the past tense in Sanchū Ming's words.

"Aunt Shiori passed away when we were very young. My mother and father divorced and went back to their hometown, and they won't come back again."

"… I'm sorry."

"What's there to be sorry about?

You didn't do anything. "

Sanchū Ming touched Akashiji Seijuro's unfinished cola, and felt the remaining coolness, so he took it and continued to drink.

"After our mothers left, Seijuro's father became more and more strict with him, and wanted him to do his best in everything.

My father was an unreliable man after leaving my mother. He said that he wanted to prepare a dowry for me and my brothers, so he bought a set of custom-made kimono for each of us, and a bunch of gold, silver, jade, and jewelry decorations … He mortgaged the ancestral house here to buy it. "

Eh!

What kind of father is this!

"Our family went bankrupt, and we had nowhere else to live in Tokyo. My older brother, who was still in university at the time, had no choice but to become an actor. My uncle, who worked at a law firm, resigned and went abroad to do business. Our family barely managed to scrape together the money to move to the countryside.

"We separated from Seijuro."

Little Sanchū Ming, who was a complete idiot, followed behind others like a headless fly, and was played around by a child like Tsurumaru Kuninaga.

After Akashiji Seijuro finished his work with Akatsuki, he sold all of his financial experiment stocks, invested in Sanchū Sōjin's debut movie, and received a large sum of money from abroad. Finally, he managed to redeem Sanchū Ming's Tokyo ancestral house before it was auctioned off.

Akashiji Seijuro was looking forward to seeing Sanchū Ming again, but he found that the young Tsuran, who used to follow behind him and laugh secretly under his clothes, had become a bald man covered in spikes.

Akashiji Seijuro looked at Sanchū Ming, who was like a hedgehog, and suddenly realized that he wasn't the only one who needed to grow up.

"So Seijuro forced me, who was only interested in Kendo at the time, to seriously study it. He asked Akaji's family chef to teach me how to cook. He forced me to take private lessons with him and lent me things he thought I needed to read. Sometimes it was a book, a page of newspaper, a note, or notes."

Sanchū Ming didn't know how soft her face was at that moment. "My favorite thing was the notes he gave me every month.

"A decrepit old man is just a piece of trash, a tattered coat propped up on a wooden stick.

Unless the soul claps its hands and sings louder for every crack in its skin.

In order to pursue the truth, he is ruthless to himself and dares to expose his human weakness.

"Seijuro didn't like poets. He once said they were a group of moaning worms." At this point, Sanchū Ming couldn't help but laugh. "But he liked Ye Ci very much.

For so many years, he has been making notes, and the title page of every book has this line from 'Sailing to Byzantium'.

"I also like this line very much."

After Sanchū Ming, she lost her mother and father, and her brothers were too busy to take care of her. Only Akashiji Seijuro was never absent and unquestionably showed her the way.
