The Strange Cat from Fuuto

"And there are bugs showing!"

The man in white immediately apologized, while the purple-haired woman, seemingly unconcerned, opened her snack box, took out a salted locust, and asked, "Want some?"

"Uh!" Upon seeing the salted locusts, the white-clad man's hand involuntarily loosened, and the keys fell to the ground. He casually picked them up, covering his face with his hands. "Thank you, but no need!"

"It tastes pretty good!"

The purple-haired woman put the insect into her mouth and turned to leave.

Yuanzaki Mansion, restaurant.

The group of people and a cat, who had just finished breakfast, were about to leave the table.

"Wakana, the envoy from our museum's investor group, Foundation X, has arrived. Go and greet them!"

Suddenly stopped by the old man, Wakana, holding Miku, looked somewhat at a loss. Miku sighed silently and gently patted Wakana's hand.

Wakana nodded in agreement: "Yes, Father!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Saeko clenched her fists, her brightly painted nails digging deep into her palms.

"Let's go, Saeko!"

Noticing this, Isaka pulled Saeko away. Once outside, Isaka spoke first, "It seems you're very unhappy with your father's arrangements!"

"My father has only ever looked after Wakana since I was a child, and he hasn't cared about me at all!"

"To him, I'm just a prop!"

"He has always loved Wakana!"

"Always!"

Saeko linked arms with Isaka and walked slowly down the road, her eyes revealing neither joy nor sorrow.

"I see!" Isaka seemed to be thinking about something that no one else knew.

Just then, a black sedan drove past them, and a pair of emotionless eyes stared at Saeko until the car drove away and Saeko's figure disappeared.

.....

A black sedan smoothly drove into the Madoka mansion, and after the car entered, the gate slowly closed.

Inside the room, Wakana had one hand on Miku's body, her palm slightly damp.

"Don't be nervous, it was destined that you would take over the family affairs."

"But I don't understand why Dad would entrust these things to me. Shouldn't my older sister do them?"

"That's because you're...very...special, Wakana!"

"Besides, I'll be there for you... for you... for you!"

"It's so good to have you here, Miku!"

Wakana felt at ease as she looked at Miku's sweet smile.

"Dong dong..."

"Miss, the master wants you to go down and greet the guests!"

"Okay, I understand!"

In the reception room, the old man sat opposite the envoy of the X Foundation. The old man looked at Jia Tou and said, "Jia Tou, you usually don't come here unless you have a reason. What is it that the Foundation is worried about regarding our museum?"

Kato Shun picked up his teacup expressionlessly and said, "Mr. Ensaki, I'll get straight to the point. Regarding the Gaia Memory development project, a collaboration between our Foundation X and your organization, approximately 12% of the memory units were not produced on time this year. What are your thoughts on this?"

"It's just a small matter, why bother you to make the trip? It's just a trivial amount!"

No sooner had the old man finished speaking than Jia Tou dropped the teacup in his hand and it shattered on the ground.

“Mr. Ensaki, you need to know that Group X doesn’t only have your projects invested in!”

A pair of empty, emotionless eyes stared at the old man, who slammed his hand on the table, somewhat angry, threatening me with the withdrawal of investment.

you are awesome!

However, since you're an investor, I'll give you face!

Jia Toushun continued, "So, do you have any proposed solutions?"

"Of course, our museum will be changing its head of operations soon, and she is the person I trust most!"

"Is this your second young lady? Forgive my bluntness, but your eldest young lady seems to still be in her seat. Is it really appropriate to change her without saying a word?"

"That's not something you need to worry about, Jia Tou!" The old man said to his side, "Come out, Wakana, and meet the envoy from the conglomerate!"

Wakana, holding Miku in her arms, slowly walked to the old man and said, "Father!"

"Young people should get to know each other better, haha!"

After pressing Wakana into a chair, the old man left with his hands behind his back.

"So, do you have any good solutions?"

Feeling a little intimidated by Kato Jun's stare, Miku sighed helplessly and jumped onto the table, saying, "Mr. Kato, staring so directly at a lady is... is... is impolite!"

"I'm sorry!" Jun Kato apologized again without hesitation, "Since Mr. Ensaki has appointed you as the new person in charge, you must have some ideas!"

"this..."

Wakana looked at Miku for help, but Miku rolled her eyes. "Why are you looking at me like that? You're the one in charge. Do you think I'll help you solve your problems if you keep staring at me?"

However, since it was his own pet owner, Miku had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

"Mr. Jia Tou, we will present the facts...we will speak...so please give us some more time to prove ourselves!"

"I've been curious before. You're supposed to be the executioner of the museum, so why are you suddenly speaking up for her?"

"Miku means what I mean!"

Wakana added at the opportune moment, "He's not only the organization's executioner, but also my accomplice!"

"No... mistake!"

"Since that's the case, then I have nothing more to say. I just hope you can remember your words and not let our conglomerate down!"

As Jia Tou stood up, picked up his suitcase, and turned to leave, Miku spoke up behind him: "Mr. Jia Tou, you won't find a girlfriend... friend... if you keep a cold face!"

"Snapped!"

The suitcase landed on the ground, and the man casually picked it up. He glanced at the cat on the table, gritted his teeth, and said, "You don't need to worry about this!"

"Tsk!"

Miku, who was speechless, didn't say much, but instead followed Jia Toushun, saying, "I'll see you off!"

The person and the cat walked silently.

As they reached the gate, they ran into Saeko and Isaka, who were returning home. Kato's eyes were fixed on Saeko without looking away.

Upon seeing this scene, Miku recalled that in the original work, Kato had always harbored feelings for Saeko, but Saeko always ignored him because of his expressionless and cold demeanor!

"Mr. Jia Tou...Mr. Jia Tou!"

Sorry, I was daydreaming just now!

"N-nothing...nothing." Miku squatted down and glanced at Saeko before speaking, "I just remembered, you...you are, after all, an envoy of the conglomerate, it's really not right to just let you leave like this. Please stay and have a simple meal!"

"Ok!"

Despite Miku's attempt to persuade him to stay, Jia Toushun turned back without hesitation. Miku followed behind, watching the white uniform and secretly chuckled, "I wonder what will unfold next?"

"Hehehe..."

Although he was a little surprised to see the old man return from Jiatou, he didn't say much. After all, it was just a meal, and with his large family and business, there was nothing inconvenient about it.

Miku was somewhat surprised by the purple-haired woman in a Lolita dress next to the old man, because he recognized her face all too well.

"Forehead....."

"Is that you, Sister Peach?!"

Chapter 73: Extremely "Humorous" and with a Smooth Start!

Fuuto, second floor of the Seagull Billiards Hall, Narumi Detective Agency.

Where did the dragon go?

Akiko sat alone at the coffee table, her chin resting on her hand, her bangs slightly disheveled.

"Akiko, don't worry too much about that guy. Knowing him as I do, he won't get into trouble so easily!"

Shotaro placed a cup of coffee in front of Akiko, and Philip closed his book, came over, and picked up his own cup. "Terui Ryu is a very strong person, Akiko-chan, don't worry too much!"

"Squeak..."

The door suddenly opened, and Brother A, covered in filth, walked in step by step. After looking around, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground.

"Hey, Terui!"

"dragon!"

.......

At this moment, it was dinnertime at the Ensaki Mansion.

"Mr. Jia Tou, isn't it a bit impolite to stare at a young lady like that?"

Isaka, who was stacking the plates together, felt inexplicably annoyed when he saw Jun staring at Saeko. He had originally used Saeko as a tool to get closer to Ryoubei Madoka, but now he had developed different feelings for her, feelings he had never experienced in his more than forty years of life.

"I'm just appreciating beauty, but you, Isaka Shinkuro, actually have the nerve to stay here!" Kato Jun stopped eating and retorted with a barrage of provocative words.

"Two idiots!"

Miku remained quietly in his spot, silently chewing his cat food, not daring to make a sound.

Since Isaka Shinkuro and Kato Jun met today, a thick atmosphere of tension has filled the air between them.

In the original story, Isaka's memory was shattered by A-san's kick, and he died from the backlash of the toxins. Then, Jun entered Saeko's life. Although Saeko never really paid him any attention, she couldn't resist the depth of his affection!

But it was useless, and it was still not taken seriously!

"Speaking of which, Kato Jun is a great starting point for dealing with Isaka!"
