I have bound two systems.

She bent down and put her right hand on the car door, her long black hair hanging in the air. Her expression and words showed some impatience and lack of respect for her elders.

However, this is the normal way of getting along between this mother and daughter, and Chisato Suzumiya has gotten used to it.

"My daughter has worked so hard and just finished her exams. As a parent, it's only natural for me to pick her up, isn't it?"

After saying these words to her daughter, Touma Yoko turned to Suzumiya Chisato and winked at her left eye mischievously.

The daughter took a small step to the left to block her view and complained coldly,

"It's amazing that you can tell such a lie without blinking, your Excellency is really terrible."

"What are you talking about, Kazusa? If you stay with the boy next to you, you will become an adult sooner or later."

"We don't lie to each other."

"That's not what I mean."

"Then what do you mean?"

"What do you think~"

Seeing her mother biting her lower lip, Touma and Sa understood instantly.

"boring!"

"Ah, if you can't even accept this level of teasing, it will be very difficult for Suzumiya-kun to accommodate you in the future."

"It's none of your business!"

The conversation between the mother and daughter is as comedic as ever.

But now is not the time to say such things.

"Aunt Touma, if your car continues to be parked here, something bad will happen next."

Chisato Suzumiya saw a traffic police vehicle approaching this side at the end of the street.

"Ah, indeed."

After being reminded by him, Touma Yoko stopped joking. She was a celebrity with a certain degree of fame in the music field, and she didn't want the scene of her being educated by the traffic police to appear on the pages of a magazine.

Touma Yoko put on her sunglasses again.

"Hesa, get in the car."

"Who wants to get on the bus without telling me in advance?"

"Okay, stop being awkward at this time."

My boyfriend's words carry much more weight than my mother's.

Looking at her daughter who did as she was told, Touma Yoko shook her head and sighed gently, feeling sad.

"Suzumiya-kun, you get in the car too. You're going to work, right? I'll take you there."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I can go there directly by tram, so I won't bother you."

"Really? Good luck with your work, and we'll see you later."

"Yes."

The vehicle drove away and Touma Hesa ​​withdrew her gaze from the window.

She leaned back in the back seat with her arms folded across her chest, looking at her mother's face through the rearview mirror.

"So, what's going on?"

Although they have been apart for most of their lives, Touma Kazusa knows her mother very well.

In fact, she already had some answers in her mind, but she still held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that maybe the situation was really as her mother said, and she just simply wanted to pick her up from school.

Although the other party came back from abroad some time ago, the mother and daughter did not talk much every day while living under the same roof. Most of the time, the daughter still said rebellious words.

But it is undeniable that the recent period of time is indeed the most relaxing and comfortable time that Kazusa has ever had since she was a child.

The lack of family affection made up for by her mother's return, and the love made up for by confirming her relationship with Chisato Suzumiya, these two combined are the source of her great happiness and security.

"Oh my, she was discovered after all. Kazusa has grown up after all."

Touma Yoko was wearing sunglasses, so Hesa ​​couldn't see her eyes, but the opening remarks and the pretended cheerful tone made her sigh slightly in her heart.

"Actually, Mom has to leave tomorrow, so I came to pick you up today so that we can have a good meal and talk. After all, we don't know when we will meet again."

"..."

really……

"Oh my~ You didn't react at all. The last time I left, you were so angry that you told me never to come back."

It's like this again, deliberately smiling so brightly, using superficial joy to cover up the sadness of parting.

As a mother, you must be aware of how much I want to stay by your side, but even so, you have done so for so many years.

But it doesn’t matter. The situation is different now. I have Qianli by my side.

Taking a deep breath, Hesha faced this fact calmly.

"I never said anything like that."

Dong Ma Youzi laughed.

"Is there anything you want to eat?"

"casual."

"Then let's go directly to the restaurant I booked in advance."

"kindness."

Touma Yoko turned her eyes and glanced at the rearview mirror, her mood becoming gentle and gloomy.

She suffers from leukemia, and the negative feedback from her body has become increasingly severe in recent times. She has begun to have symptoms of low fever and difficulty breathing intermittently, and the frequency of nose and gum bleeding is also increasing.

If I continue to live at home, it is only a matter of time before my precious daughter discovers the truth.

Finally she can smile happily, find her new life goal and work hard for it. As her mother, I should not hold her back.

"Hesha."

"kindness?"

"As expected, you look better if you smile more. Keep it up."

"Why are you suddenly saying something so embarrassing? Are you becoming more and more like an old lady?"

"Hahaha~ Although I don't want to admit it, I'm already an old lady at my age."

----

After watching Touma and his daughter leave, Chisato Suzumiya walked towards the tram station.

In fact, he was not going to work today as Touma and Sa had just thought.

He took a day off today because today was the day he had an appointment with Isshiki Iroha to meet.

Twenty minutes later, he arrived in front of Toei Shinjuku Station.

After looking around, he walked into a McDonald's, ordered a single meal, took it and sat by the window to eat.

Halfway through, he took out his cell phone and sent a location message to Isshiki Iroha.

The other party quickly replied with a location message, and quickly followed up with an emoticon of a pitiful cat wiping tears, with some text.

[Senior, I'm on my way here. There are so many people on the train, it's super crowded. ]

Chisato Suzumiya took a bite of her burger, thought for a moment, and typed a reply.

[Let's change the meeting place. I'll wait for you at the train station now. ]

There was another quick reply from the other side.

[No need, it's so hot outside, senior, just wait in the store, there are still two stops, I will be there soon. ]

She also added a rabbit emoticon that was full of energy and cheering herself up, which was in line with the lighthearted and cute feeling her appearance gave off.

She's a soft girl.

Probably most people who see such chat records will have such feelings about the person who sent such a message.

But Chisato Suzumiya was a little worried.

If you don't know about some things in advance, you won't have many unnecessary associations.

In fact, since the meeting in the apartment that day, he signaled Dark Wing to send his subordinates to follow Isikayu all the time, and fly back to report every other day.

He also did the same thing to Kasumigaoka Utaha.

He was so confident about the kitten that he didn't need to do these things.

Eriri had simulated memories of her time with the Dark Wings, and she acted so alert, he didn't think the wild crows were smart enough to monitor her without being noticed.

The reason why he was feeling rather uneasy now was because of the information he had obtained from the crows that were monitoring the same color feathers.

He had some vague guesses in his mind, but to really confirm whether it was true or not, he still had to wait and see how they interacted with each other.

While thinking about these things, Isshiki Caiyu arrived at the meeting place, slightly out of breath, and pushed open the door.

…………

Chapter 246: Testing

The girl jogged over from the train station and pushed open the door of the store while panting slightly.

The air conditioning in the store isolated her from the hot air outside, making her feel cool all over.

She bent down with her hands on her knees, looked around, and soon saw her target for today's meeting.

She adjusted her breathing, smiled widely, and walked over quickly.

"Senior~"

Even before the person arrived, a sweet greeting came over.

Suzumiya Chisato came back to her senses from her thoughts, looked in the direction of the voice, and smiled at Isshiki Iroha.

"Sorry, I've been waiting for a long time. It's time to get off work and there are too many people on the subway, so I'll wait for the next one."

The seat where Chisato Suzumiya was sitting was a standard four-person seat, with two seats on each side.

He sat on one of the seats on the inside and placed his schoolbag on the chair next to him.

After Isshiki Caiyu approached, she picked up his schoolbag and held it in front of her while apologizing, and then sat next to him.

Being stared at by the smiling Isshiki Iroha at a very close distance, Suzumiya Chisato glanced calmly at the two empty seats across the dining table, wondering why the situation was not quite what she had imagined.

But then he thought about it and it was normal. After all, humans are complex and changeable creatures, and Isika Yu is a girl, not a child. It is impossible for her to show everything on her face.

"I just got here, so I didn't have to wait long. I'll go take your order."

Suzumiya Chisato stood up. He wanted to use this action to temporarily increase the distance between the two of them, so that when he came back with the meal, he would be able to sit across the table naturally.

You know, the seats in McDonald's restaurant can't really be called big, and he didn't really want to sit so close to Isshi Iroha's body, as that was not in line with his expectations.

However, Isshiki Caiyu did not let him get what he expected. She raised her hand and grabbed Chisato Suzumiya's sleeve and gently pulled it down.

"No need, senior. I'm not hungry at all now. Besides, fried foods are very high in calories. I rarely eat them normally."

"In that case, we can go somewhere else to chat, how about a cafe?"

Chisato Suzumiya reacted quickly and came up with other solutions.

Issiro Yu still maintained her brilliant smile.

"I just ran all the way here and I'm really tired, so please, senior, you can carry me on your back."

Such coquettish words did not move Suzumiya Chisato. He looked at the girl's pleated skirt which barely covered her thighs.

"If you're not afraid of exposing yourself, I don't mind."

"That's not a considerate answer. The correct answer should be, let's just rest here for a while."

Issiro Yu deliberately puffed up his cheeks, pretending to be slightly dissatisfied.

To be honest, from the moment they met, whether it was her soft and tender voice or the small movements that quietly and actively shortened the distance between the two of them, they were actually quite deliberate.

But the strange thing is that these things might be strange and cause guardedness when done by others, but they are very natural when done by her.

You clearly know that she seems to have other intentions towards you, but you still want to be closer to her willingly, just to spend more time with her.
