"You?! How did you come here..." Sakura Sojiro was surprised at the sudden arrival of the girl who had lived in his family for several years.
"Can't you?" Sakura Futaba's attitude is quite rude... But it's not the kind of "rude without tutoring" feeling, but the rudeness that only applies to Sakura Sojiro alone, probably the baby daughter hangs up the idiot old man Dad's attitude? Although they are not directly related by blood.
Sakura Sojirou really wasn't bothered, or he was used to the attitude of adopting a daughter, and just asked worriedly: "It's not a question of whether you can do it or not, you have never left the house!"
"... I've made you worry." Sakura Futaba lowered his head and said.
"This, that's it..." Sakura Sojirou was probably the first time he heard an apology from his adopted daughter who had a mental disorder, and he was a little caught off guard.
Sakura Futaba gathered up his courage, clenched his fists and raised his head and said, "Sojirou, I didn't kill my mother."
"Huh?" Of course Sakura Sojirou knew about this. Isshiki Wakaba had mentioned to him "I might be killed" before the accident. He felt guilty because of his inaction. Only then did he take over the troublesome hot potato of Sakura Futaba... In fact, Sakura Sojiro did not know how many times he had comforted Futaba in the past few years, telling her that there was no need to feel guilty for her mother's death, but Sakura Futaba was due to a psychological disorder. And didn't listen to it.
However, today's Sakura Futaba is no longer the same, "I... will never be deceived by the distorted surface... I will not be deceived by the words of others... but trust my own eyes and heart and see the truth. …!”
"Yeah, that's it, Futaba!" Sakura Sojirou's tears could show the joy in his heart. Maybe he adopted her out of guilt at first, but after so many years of love, he has long regarded her as himself. How can I be unhappy when I see her untie her knot
"I want to use my own network technology to investigate who killed my mother!" Sakura Futaba said with fighting spirit.
"Wh... Hold on! No!" Sakura Sojiro, who had been looking like "My daughter is finally sensible" just now, turned 180 degrees and immediately stopped loudly.
"Hmm? Why not?" Sakura Futaba tilted his head and looked at his guardian strangely, "... Do you know something, Sojirou?"
"Ah, no, it's very dangerous, isn't it?" Sakura Sojiro, who was not very good at acting, explained in a panic, "It's all over, I don't think Ruo Ye wants you to take risks."
"???" Sakura Futaba had a suspicious look on her face, wrinkled her cute little nose, and looked at Sakura Sojirou up and down behind her big round glasses.
(Clang) The sound of pushing the door helped Sojiro Sakura.
"Welcome... What, is it you? Why did you come here early in the morning?" Sakura Sojiro, who was busy changing the subject, said his words, and then he noticed that the people who came here were Leeds and his party who had been frequenting recently. .
"Hey, even a regular customer can't be like this Go back to sleep."
"Have you stayed up all night? So what exactly do you guys do..." Although he said something about Amiya, but today is the weekend, he can't say anything. Who hasn't stayed up all night a few times
"The work has been completed a long time ago, but it took some time to unify opinions and formulate follow-up plans, and the sun has risen." In fact, they also went to the Shitong Temple of Justice to make preliminary arrangements. and investigation, but it seems that this kind of thing can still be carried over with vague words, "Speaking of which, is that girl over there your boss's daughter? It's not quite like you, her behavior is very cute~"
"Hey, what do you mean, don't think you are a god just because you have visited dozens of times," Sakura Sojiro turned around and saw that Sakura Futaba came to the back of the bar at an unknown time. Crouching behind the half-height bar, he cautiously peeked at Liz and the others, "Uh... She is Futaba, so she can be regarded as my adopted daughter... Don't care."
"Hehe~ First meeting, little sister Futaba~" Liz waved her hand in greeting.
Sakura Futaba hurriedly retracted, and after a while, she looked out again, and responded timidly, "... First meeting, and, thank you."
Untangling the knot will not lead to amnesia, but Futaba is someone who knows the identity of the phantom thieves from Liz and others. She is also very aware of her psychological changes, which is clearly the credit of the phantom thieves. Although she didn't know what the other party had done, she did not forget to thank her.
"Thank you? Have we done anything?" Liz looked at Sakura Sojirou with a puzzled look.
"As you can see, Futaba is a bit..." Liz's acting talent is much stronger than Sakura Sojirou, and the coffee shop owner was completely fooled, "Well, Futaba, there are a lot of customers now, why don't you go back first...? "
"Well... I want to try to get out of the house, but it's a bit difficult for me..." After weighing the pressure of "keep hiding behind the bar for half an hour" and "leaving in front of everyone now", Futaba finally decided that the long pain was better than the short one, and the cat walked out cautiously and moved towards the door, looking too cute.
"Huh?" Futaba and Jousuke's eyes met.
Futaba suddenly walked over, raised his hand and clenched his fist, smashing Jousuke on the forehead.
"It hurts!" Because using a four-year-old's IQ to manipulate a seventeen-year-old's body is likely to be regarded as mentally retarded by passers-by, Jousuke has now returned to his original state, and he is not even capable of parrying this blow from his eldest sister.
"Hey, Futaba! What are you doing!" Sakura Sojiro said in shock.
Sakura Futaba put his head close and stared at Jousuke's face with a wrinkled nose, "No, what should I say... Seeing his face, I don't know why I want to take revenge."
"Huh huh?!" Touhou Jousuke was taken aback, he didn't forget that he gave Sakura Futaba, who knew the world, a "du la la la continuous punch", but what happened in the cognitive world he said All parties in the material world will not remember it!
Sakura Sojirou, who didn't know anything about this, said speechlessly, "Um, how can you bully the children and apologize?"
"Well, that's true," Sakura Futaba nodded, but she didn't apologize, but squeezed into the seat, then lifted Jousuke and put it on her lap, "Yoshi, it's an apology~ you It's not high enough, so it's just right."
"Put, let me down!" Jousuke hurriedly struggled.
"Don't move around, hehe, this is a benefit given by the big sister~~ I'll only give you one, feel honored~~"
