In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone through the curtain on the face of the girl who fell asleep on the bed without even covering the quilt.

Open your big red and swollen eyes and block the glare of the sun with your hands.

Wordlessly, looking at the sunlight still shining through the gaps between her fingers, Lu Jiu weakly pressed the back of her hand to her forehead.

It wasn't until her eyes adjusted to the mischievous beams that she realized that something seemed to be pushing her back.

Reaching out and pulling out what was on his back, it was the cross necklace that Bullitt had given to Lou Jiu.

Thinking of the only relative in his memory, round tears once again slipped from Lu Jiu's eyes.

& Kids... What are you crying about?" A magical scene appeared, and under the direct sunlight, a phantom of a young face appeared on the cross necklace...

Lu Jiu, who had seen his grandfather's youthful appearance, stretched out his right hand to the phantom in disbelief, "Is it really you?"

However, the real feeling of touching ** in expectation did not appear, and the smooth jade hand penetrated through the phantom.

>> Kid, grandpa is long gone..."

&Yes... But Lu Jiu really misses her grandfather..."

&What should I say about you? Now you should have someone to cherish more than your grandfather, right? Rather than nostalgia for what you have lost, you should hold on to your side. ”

& side >

My lovely granddaughter, and your lovely friends..."

& Jean... Elusa, Leah, God Split, Shinnu, Asuna, Denisha... Everyone..."

&Wrong, these are people you should cherish~" Smiled with relief, the phantom continued to say earnestly, "Also, don't always think about being an arm that people can rely on, no matter how strong a person is, there will be a vulnerable side, so rely on them appropriately..."

& Rely on... Everyone..."

>> There's one more thing!" smiled wickedly, and the phantom's eyes rolled flexibly, "Maybe it's because you didn't have a relationship with your parents since you were a child. So I don't know much about children's dependence and possessiveness on their parents... You're also a mother, so listen to your daughter's voice... Also, calm down and talk to that so-called [father], things are not what you think~"

With that, the phantom disappeared into the air, leaving only the small visible dust floating in the air.

>> That's what I thought!?" Biting her three fingers in surprise, the girl seemed to think of something terrible, "Did I voluntarily hook up with the back of that head!!!"

Hm... Grandpa, you seem to have made the misunderstanding bigger and bigger

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

>> You... Is it really okay?" Looking worriedly at the girl who suddenly became as excited as usual after crying all night and flicking her tail to eat breakfast, Shen Crack became even more worried.

"Okay, I've already thought about it..."In the stunned expressions of everyone, Lu Jiu unceremoniously inserted a hot dog, "If it's okay." Everyone, help me investigate the traces of Nu Liang Carp Companion, I was really impulsive yesterday, I want to find a time to talk to him. ”

Quiet......

As if time had stopped, everyone's eyes were on Lu Jiu, and Leah even had a steak hanging from her fork in the air...

&!! I've said I'm not going to be nonsense!!"

Looking at the strange atmosphere of the audience, Denisha concentrated her wisdom and took a sip of black tea, "Well, it's best if Lu Jiu can see it, everyone says yes!"

&haha... That's not wrong at all!" gulped down a glass of juice. God Crack snorted.

>The steak is delicious!!" A certain stupid Mauria also played a haha!

& Wool haha! Completely off topic, bastard!" by everyone.

―――――――――――――――― dividing line at the end of breakfast――――――――――――――――

Humming a little song in her mouth, Asuna, who was happily wiping the table, suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Lu Jiu!

Putting down the plate that needed to be sorted out, Asuna put the registration form filled out by Hott and others yesterday on the table in front of Lu Jiu.

>> "Suspiciously, he opened the small book that had been integrated into the book, "The registration form for the campus martial arts festival?"

> Johnson, Johnson, Gordon, Ya, Qian?" looked at the table to himself. Lu Jiu glanced at Asuna suspiciously, "It can be expected that Holt, Johnson, and Gordon will participate, but why did Ya and Qian also sign up? Especially Qian, this little guy usually doesn't communicate with everyone much..."

"Well, that's not what you should care about!" Leaning back from her chair, Elusa pointed to the bottom right corner of the form, "The problem to worry about now is how to make them the apex of this school in a week~"

&Do you only have a week to prepare?"

&It is said that this year's [ladder] time is much earlier than last year, so the time for this year's martial arts festival is also very tight, with a one-week preparation period and a one-week competition period. The next two weeks in foreign countries is the opening of the [Ladder] competition. Taking a leisurely sip of black tea, Denisha made a look of enjoyment.

&>> Then it seems that the matter of finding that guy is going to be slowed down..."Grabbing the fluffy curls, Lu Jiu sighed deeply...

I finally made up my mind to find him...

But it's good that you can be mentally prepared...

While Lu Jiu was still thinking about the above questions, a crisp voice came from upstairs, "Mom!"

The little guy who was still sleepy and hazy saw his mother who he hadn't seen all night, and his slightly squinted eyelids immediately popped off, and the whole person ran down the stairs like a rocket.

&Pull~What's wrong with my little princess~" Touching her daughter's head, Lu Jiu smiled lovingly.

&&Jean, Mai Trin is afraid that her mother is going to beat her father..."

"Haha..."The black tea in Elusa's mouth suddenly squirted out...

Seeing that Lu Jiu suddenly showed a terrible expression, Elusa pressed her stomach and forced herself to suppress her smile, "Yes, I'm sorry... I can't help it when I hear [Mom Hit Dad] for some reason..."

&Can't help it, huh?"

"I will never allow Lu Jiu to fall into the hands of an unscrupulous demon king like Nuliang Carp!!"

"My Majesty the Queen!!"

&Queen!!!"

>The mourners have forgiven you lowly slave..." (To be continued......)
