He carried the umbrella and walked away.

The long umbrella on his back swayed.

The group of people who were originally on his side.

They were all terrified and made way for him to leave.

The result was obvious. Without the main force,

These people were all captured.

They only knew that they were members of the Jesso family.

This family was far away in the United States.

If they asked any more in-depth questions, they wouldn't know.

She made a promise with a powerful battle maniac.

Xia Kong had to ask Reborn to give her more training.

So that her body could control the power of the black flame better.

So, Reborn came up with a plan.

Xia Kong took it and looked at it.

"Running, bare-handed mountain climbing, weightlifting, and so on are normal. What the hell is gymnastics training?" She pointed to a line and asked.

Reborn stood with his hands behind his back, pushed up his glasses, and said seriously, "The only advantage a woman has in fighting.

It is the flexibility of the body.

If you can complete the gymnastics training,

In the future, when you fight, you can better dodge the enemy's attacks. "

Hearing this, the Dog Gods laughed and had a nosebleed.

Xia Kong glanced at him helplessly.

"Oh, right.

Xanxus gave you candy.

If you eat one,

Your training for the day will be doubled. "Reborn, who was dressed as a scientist, pointed to a large bottle of Jin Ping Candy in the room.

"Agreed!

When the master's future training is completed, the Dog Gods will return it to the master. "

The Dog Gods quickly put away the bottle of candy.

"That's right, but it's a pity..." Xia Kong mourned for Jin Ping Candy for three seconds.

The Dog Gods' eyes were clearly saying that the candy was gone...

The battle in the school continued. Nara didn't appear. No one knew what he was doing.

Xia Kong originally had the intention of going to his lair to explore.

But this idea was later suppressed by the complicated training.

The Dog Gods was also assigned a training plan, but his training was private. Reborn entrusted him to another yellow-haired baby.

The result of training for a period of time was that the body would become soft and firm … These were two antonyms. After all, the muscles would become elastic, while the bones and tendons could be stretched to a great extent.

Then, after buying winter clothes and spending the winter vacation, there were still three days left before Christmas.

Christmas in Italy was even grander than New Year's. The Pengelly family took a month off to celebrate Christmas, and the base had prepared a lot of delicious food and wine.

After finishing her morning exercise, Xia Kong rested on the windowsill in her room.

The Dog Gods were still training …

After some thought, she released Xiao Yan.

"I think I've trained enough, but Reborn never mentioned anything about finishing his apprenticeship."

As she spoke, she fiddled with the ahoge on top of Xiao Yan's head. She found that she couldn't press it down no matter how hard she tried, so she suddenly became interested in playing with it.

Xiao Yan's bean-sized eyes turned into slits of disdain, and she muttered a lot.

After the Boss releases Xiao Yan, she can choose to complete the mission freely.

This mission can be pushed back, but you must replace it with another mission.]

"What is it?"

1. Go to the Mafia prison to rescue Rokudo and establish a more stable alliance! "

“2？”

2. Become good friends with Hayato Jōdera who can share her thoughts.

"Is it useful to do this?" Xia Kong stopped playing with the ahoge and asked in a low voice.

— — She was just a little uncertain.

Xiao Yan shook the ahoge on top of her head and rubbed Xia Kong's finger: "Boss, you have to do it."

"Eh, let's do the second one first."

After deciding on the target, Xia Kong took out her phone.

[Boss, your birthday is on January 1st. Don't forget to eat cake!]

Xiao Yan spoke again.

Xia Kong rubbed Xiao Yan's head.

It didn't make a difference whether it was a birthday or not.

The Dog Gods were still training outside, and Hayato rarely appeared after the holidays. What reason should she use to contact him?

Right!

Xia Kong dialed the number, and the other side quickly picked up.

"Hayato, thank you for being willing to lend me money. I'm very sorry to have made you wait for so long. I've saved enough money and can return it to you. I also have a small gift for you. I hope you can accept it."

"Troublesome guy …" Hayato's voice sounded very annoyed, but he still replied, "The coffee beside the school."

"Then, see you later."

"Okay."

The weather was still relatively cold in December. Xia Kong put on a brown coat over her gray knee-length sweater, then rushed out with the prepared gift.

Scuvaro had just finished delivering some documents to Kudaime. He saw her from afar and shouted, "Hey, little girl, I haven't seen you in a while. You've grown a lot taller."

"Really?" Xia Kong walked to Scuvaro's side and reached out her hand to compare. "Well, I've grown taller."

Originally, it only reached Scuvaro's abdomen, but now it reached his chest.

"Where are you going?" Scuvaro asked curiously.

"Oh, I'm going to find Hayato and make an appointment with him. I'll be leaving first." Xia Kong waved her hand and walked out of the gate.

"Go ahead." Scuvaro waved his hand that had a sword tied to it.

It was a long walk from the base to the gate, but for Xia Kong, whose physical fitness was much stronger, this distance was nothing.

But, why was Xanxus standing at the gate?

After being stunned, Xia Kong took the initiative to say, "Good afternoon, Xanxus."

"Hmph."

Xanxus snorted coldly as a response, then looked her up and down. "Where are you going?"

"Eh?"

Xia Kong brushed her hair that had fallen to the side of her face and replied, "To the coffee outside the school. I've made an appointment with Hayato."

"Get in the car." Xanxus frowned and turned sideways.

Xia Kong then saw a red sports car parked at the gate.

The streamlined body and open seats looked very flirtatious. "You want to give me a ride?"

Was it Xanxus's car?

She glanced at him, who was still wearing the Walia uniform and had his hair combed back.

It didn't match at all!

"Naggy, woman."

Xanxus frowned unhappily and reached out to grab her. He opened the door to the front passenger seat and sent her in. He also fastened the seat belt while he was at it.

The series of actions were fast and smooth. By the time Xia Kong reacted, Xanxus had already sat in the driver's seat and turned the key to start the sports car.

As if there was something bothering him, he drove very fast.

The wind that blew against her face hurt. Xia Kong clutched the seat belt around her chest and said with difficulty, "The wind in winter is very uncomfortable. You're wearing so little. Don't you feel cold driving so fast?"

"Hmph, that's all." Xanxus ignored her words and slowed down the car. His brows relaxed.

Feeling much better, Xia Kong brushed her messy long hair and muttered softly, "Isn't it a bit too long?"

The Dog Gods were very good at cooking nutritious meals. During this time, she had grown taller and her hair had grown a lot.

She had been so busy that she didn't have time to go to the hairdresser. Her hair was loose and soft, so she didn't cut it short.

"No, it's very good." Looking at Xia Kong's side profile, Xanxus thought of the tall woman in his memory.

Back then, her hair was longer.

This girl was slowly growing into her appearance back then.

"Huh?"

Hearing Xanxus's soft reply, Xia Kong smiled. "Xanxus is surprisingly the type who likes long hair."

This time, she didn't get a response for a long time. Feeling strange, she tilted her head and looked at Xanxus, who was driving.

His face looked resolute and indifferent. He pursed his lips and stared straight ahead as if he was thinking about something.

Xia Kong didn't say anything else.

The car drove all the way to the destination. After stopping, she opened the car door and thanked Xanxus. "Sorry for the trouble … I'm here. Thank you."

Speaking of which, Xanxus didn't have to specially send her here.

But he didn't answer why.

Xia Kong loosened her seatbelt, got out of the car, walked around the front of the car, and walked towards the coffee bar.

She didn't expect Xanxus to get out of the car and follow behind her.

She couldn't ignore his closely following gaze. She turned around and asked with a smile, "Are you here for coffee too?"

She remembered that Xanxus also graduated from this reserve school.

"Mhmm."

Xanxus raised his chin and responded. Taking advantage of his height, he saw the silver-haired boy sitting by the window.

He walked around Xia Kong with his long legs, walked over first, and sat down in an imposing manner.

Hayato, who was thinking about something, was startled. He was about to say something when Xia Kong trotted over.

"Huh?

You guys have an appointment too? "Xia Kong looked at the two men and asked hesitantly.

"No … no."

Being stared at by Xanxus's unfriendly gaze, Hayato stuttered when he spoke.

Hearing him say this, Xia Kong looked at Xanxus.

Xanxus looked at her and waved his hand to call the waiter. "Give me Blue.

mountain，。”

The waiter smiled and wrote down the names, then asked, "What would you like to drink?"

"Cappuccino." Xia Kong ordered a cup and sat down next to Xanxus.

Hayato looked listless and said, "Latte."

As soon as he finished speaking, a female voice suddenly sounded. "Sorry, this guy is still a child. Just give him a cappuccino. Latte, please."

The speaker was a woman with powder-colored hair. Sunglasses covered most of her face.

She wore a black motorcycle jacket that showed off her figure and leather pants of the same style. She looked neat and tidy.

"Hey, hey, sis, you're not being nice."

Hayato retorted but didn't correct the waiter. He introduced, "Let me introduce, this is my sister, Bi Yangqi.

Sis, this is Xia Kong.

Uh … "

Looking at Xanxus, Hayato continued, "This is Pengelly and Kudaime's son, Mr. Xanxus."

"Hello."

Bi Yangqi sat next to Hayato and happened to be facing Xia Kong. "Hayato, thank you for taking care of him, Xia Kong."

"No, no …" Xia Kong hurriedly waved her hand. "On the contrary, he took care of me more. Today, I especially wanted to thank Hayato for his help."

"Really?" Bi Yangqi flipped her hair. "This guy has a bad personality and is not easy to get along with.

When you called, I didn't expect it to be such a cute girl. "

"No, Sister Bi Yangqi …"

Before Xia Kong could respond with his compliments, Bi Yangqi cut in and said, "I heard that Reborn is your home tutor?

I haven't been able to ask him out recently. "

Huh?

Xia Kong, whose mouth was still open, was stunned and looked at Bi Yangqi.
