The ice-blue eyes froze slightly, Yukinoshita Yukino pressed her temples and sighed, "Okay, I get it."

"See you then?"

"Ah."

After hanging up the call with Minister Yukinoshita, Kanda Osamu hesitated for a moment, then stood up again and returned to the bed, took out the Tyrannosaurus Rex in his arms, and then...

"Do you think the minister was a little angry when I asked her that question just now?"

"Ash, I don't really understand this."

"Ok."

The conversation between the partners ended here. Kanda Osamu lay alone on the bed, struggling for ten minutes before he put the Tyrannosaurus Rex back into his pocket. He opened the map on his phone and thought about the shortest way to get to Yukinoshita's house.

The cicadas outside the window were still chirping. In such a noisy environment, Kanda Osamu, who was originally lying on the bed, suddenly got up from the bed and rubbed his stomach with his hand.

"Forget it, I'd better go eat something first."

Chapter 54 Dinner

The dinner party at the Yukinoshita family was held as scheduled.

Most of the people who came to the banquet were adults. In essence, this was a social party. Rather than celebrating the birthday of the eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita family, the highlight here was to build relationships. They gathered together, toasted to each other and chatted.

When Kanda Osamu stepped into the banquet, he noticed the host of the banquet who was surrounded by many guests. In the distance, Yukinoshita Haruno raised her wine glass and saluted in his direction.

After Kanda Osamu nodded slightly in response, he began to look around carefully.

……

When he found where Yukinoshita Yukino was staying, she was looking in a daze in the other direction. Unlike the rest of the noisy crowd, the place where Yukinoshita was staying was very quiet, with a rare sense of leisure and peace.

Gently coming behind the minister, Kanda Osamu looked in the direction Yukinoshita was looking at, but found nothing. Just as he opened his mouth and was about to speak hesitantly, he suddenly saw Yukinoshita Yukino sighing at her seat.

"Kanda-kun, you quietly walked up behind a girl without saying a word. Are you a pervert who got in from somewhere?"

Kanda Osamu: “?”

"Bullmaster Yukinoshita, I saw you were distracted, so I chose to walk slowly over here out of kindness."

He sat down next to Yukinoshita Yukino, put down the drink in his hand, turned his head and looked at her profile: "So? What is the minister worried about?"

"It's related to Tailmon and the others..." Yukinoshita was silent for a while, then sighed softly: "I will probably stay at home after this dinner, and I don't know how to properly arrange for them."

"Are these two here today too?"

"Yes, they should both be hiding outside right now, but, does Kanda-kun care about this?"

"After all, they are two Digimon. They can't be regarded as ordinary cats. Of course I care about them." Kanda Osamu said in a relaxed tone.

After learning from Yukinoshita Yukino that they were all staying outside, Kanda Osamu was still a little worried, mainly because of Black Dilumon, the guy with a criminal record. But he couldn't show this emotion in front of Yukinoshita. It seemed that they got along well with each other.

"What are Xiu and Yukino talking about?"

Kanda Osamu looked at Yukinoshita Haruno holding a glass of red wine and walking slowly towards the two of them, and asked with a smile.

"Something about high school students?"

"What you said is really not cute at all..." The eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita family shook her head slightly. She was already a college student, and this sentence seemed to express that she was too old.

"Forget it, Xiu. I don't care what you two are talking about, but don't forget what you came here for today."

"Okay..." Kanda Shuu understood the meaning of this sentence, and he shook his head helplessly: "Happy birthday, Sister Yang No."

"Hmm, you're so good."

"Sister, aren't you very busy?" Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the protagonist of the banquet calmly.

"Ah, that's right. I'll be leaving first, sister."

Yukinoshita Haruno nonchalantly picked up the wine glass in her hand and gently touched Kanda Shu's glass, then whispered her advice: "Xiao Shu, don't drink, and don't sit too close to Xiao Yukino, otherwise there might be some trouble."

trouble?

Kanda Osamu was sure that what the woman in front of him said was not groundless.

He took a deep breath, then turned and looked behind him, trying to find some clues.

"Kanda, what are you looking at?"

The appearance of this voice stunned Kanda Osamu. He turned his head stiffly, looked at the person who appeared in front of the table at some point, and fell silent.

"Teacher Nishijima, are you coming to my sister's birthday party too?"

Yukinoshita Yukino took a sip of juice and very considerately broke the silence.

"Of course, but it seems I have gained something else." Nishijima Daigo looked at the two students in front of him with a sly smile.

"With the two of you sitting here, it's hard not to make other associations, ok?"

"You think too much, teacher." Kanda Shu sighed softly, "Besides, you seem to be too idle. Don't you have anything else to do after the summer vacation?"

Daigo Nishijima didn't know whether he looked very relaxed, but he knew that he was in a good mood.

"This is normal. After all, students are on vacation, right?"

As he said this, Nishijima Daigo couldn't help laughing.

"And recently, thanks to some people, I have had fewer troubles at work, and I even have time to attend this kind of banquet."

These certain people are not talking about me, right?

Kanda Osamu looked up and nodded slightly at Nishijima Daigo with a smile on his face, as if confirming his inner thoughts.

"Okay, I won't disturb you anymore."

Nishijima Daigo stood up and pointed to the center of the bar. He moved closer to Kanda Osamu and lowered his voice.

"Remember to go find Sammo later. He has some information to tell you."

Hearing this, Kanda Osamu glanced at the crowd and noticed that DATS's commander, Satsuma Rentaro, was indeed at the dinner.

"I'd better go now."

Although I don't want to go, this is a mandatory mission. After all, the crisis brought by Digimon is the primary goal.

It seems that DATS has obtained some more intelligence after this Demon King invasion. Since Satsuma Rentaro is willing to share it with him, there is no need to let their relationship come to a standstill.

"See you later, Minister."

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't say anything. She just sat quietly in her seat, looking at the juice in her hand.

When Nishijima Daigo and Kanda Osamu came to the center of the crowd to chat, Satsuma Rentaro had already noticed them. He pointed to the window nearby and then found an excuse to get away.

"I didn't expect DATS's work would be so easy?"

When Satsuma Rentaro slowly walked to the window, Kanda Osamu, who was drinking juice, suddenly spoke.

"There really isn't much going on recently. DATS has received orders from their superiors to make other preparations. Don't worry about going out on field missions."

Samura didn't explain what DATS was preparing, and Kanda Osamu didn't ask. He just smiled and adjusted his tone.

"Then what does the commander want from me, his student?"

"There are some questions that require your help, as well as some intelligence."

As he spoke, Satsuma Rentaro stared at Kanda Osamu with sharp eyes, and he spoke very seriously.

"Your partner is a member of the Royal Knights, right?"

Kanda Osamu was stunned at this moment, but he soon understood who leaked the news.

"That's right, what happened?"

Kanda Osamu asked again, and Satsuma Rentaro just nodded slightly.

"There is no need to worry about Digimon invading the human world in the near future. At least for a long time, the two worlds will be at peace."

After saying that, seeing Kanda Shu's puzzled look, Satsuma Rentaro added: "The Royal Knights of the Digital World are willing to provide a certain degree of protection for the communication between the two worlds."

The Royal Knights... the organization that I still have some suspicion of?

Chapter 55: Exploratory Investigation

"I think your partner, as a member of the Royal Knights, should know about this, right?"

No… Actually, we have no idea about this matter.

Kanda Osamu was a little dazed. He didn't know whether he should know about this.

But Satsuma Rentaro didn't consider whether Kanda knew about this matter at all. He had already told him about it anyway.

He continued, "Since you are a Royal Knight, it doesn't matter if you are not in DATS. You don't have to worry about conflicts with Thomas and the others when you are destroying Digimon. Peace between the two worlds is the most important thing."

As he said this, Rentaro Satsuma took out his Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"Also, my partner wants to meet his colleagues. Take this and remember to return it later."

That's the one...

Kanda Osamu took over the Tyrannosaurus Rex, which had a completely different color scheme from the one he had, and his thoughts raced through his mind.

"Then I'll go back first."

"Ah."

Satsuma Rentaro nodded faintly in response, then withdrew his gaze from him.

"You just handed over your Tyrannosaurus to him?"

After Kanda Osamu left, Nishijima Daigo asked with a smile.

Satsuma Rentaro shook his head, looked at Nishijima Daigo, and then pointed at himself.

"I am not the Chosen One. The Tyrannosaurus Rex is dispensable to me. In fact, I don't have any feelings or bonds like you guys think."

Daigo Nishijima fell silent. The two people did have very different opinions on this. To him, the Tyrannosaurus Rex represented a special memory.

Nishijima Daigo let out a long sigh, putting his worries behind him, and then asked, "Has the higher-ups decided on the Digital World?"

"Of course, having normal communication with that world is at least better than us being attacked unilaterally. Maybe the Royal Knights have other purposes, but we are not powerless lambs in this regard."

"Inspector Kurata showed me his research work. I think DATS will soon be able to further improve its combat capabilities."

Research work?

Daigo Nishijima recalled the purple machine he had seen on the front line not long ago. Its strange shape was somewhat similar to a Digimon, but he was still wary of Akihiro Kurata, a man with unclear motives.

Kanda Osamu carefully walked through the crowd from the window. He didn't want to attract the attention of other people at the dinner. Even though he was not a celebrity, his identity as a child of the Kanda family would undoubtedly become a reason for some people to come and talk to him.

Fortunately, he did not often attend such banquets, and even if someone noticed him, they would not immediately recognize who he was. This reduced a lot of trouble for Kanda Osamu, and he smoothly returned to his previous position.

"Is Kanda-kun going to take care of the work for DATS?" Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes were clear and bright, and the juice she was holding slightly blocked the smile on the corner of her mouth, "You are really a busy man."

That's true, but it feels a little weird. Kanda Osamu's mouth twitched unconsciously when he heard these slightly joking words.

"But... Nishijima-sensei is also a member of DATS?"

Yukinoshita Yukino knew the Satsuma commander. He appeared in the news more than once. After Nishijima Daigo called Kanda Osamu away, she sat there thinking the whole time. Either Nishijima Daigo's behavior was just a coincidence, or her homeroom teacher was also a member of DATS.

This question made Kanda Osamu at a loss for words. After figuring out that Yukinoshita Yukino already had some guesses in her mind, he shook his head and said, "Bullmaster, stay out of these DATS-related matters."

Then he placed Satsuma Rentaro's Tyrannosaurus on the table and took out his own.

The voices of the two royal knights came from my mind at the same time.

"Long time no see, Omegamon, do you remember me now?" Sleipmon chose a safer topic to start with.

"I'm sorry, I haven't recovered my previous memories."

"You didn't recover any memory at all? You only recovered your own power..."

"No, it's not that I haven't recovered at all. My memory has some more scenes of my last encounter with the Devourer."

[Eater]? Sleipmon noticed this key word and asked in a calm voice.

"Where did you find them?"
