Lin Xiaqing knows exactly which restaurant has the best and most reliable food.

Of course~ Lin Xiaqing definitely doesn’t know things like which store has the most youthful and beautiful maids, and which one has a serious, frank attitude towards service and doesn’t mind such things.

Takanashi Wakaba's steps became light again.

She looked at her elder sister and Xia Qing, who were protecting her and Terajima Shino on the left and right because of Kadoma Yumi's sudden appearance, and a strange sense of déjà vu arose.

Obviously, I am the "link" that allows Sister Xia Qing and the elder sister to stand here at the same time at this moment, but... the scene of everyone traveling together at this time looks like a family of three... or four.

Takanashi Wakaba decides to clear Terajima Shino's name.

Shino is not necessarily his pet spirit beast Z-flag, or his master's pet.

The heels landed lightly on the ground.

Because of the bright sunshine in the afternoon, the girl's mood gradually became cheerful.

Then--

After seeing the figure at the end of her sight, Takanashi Wakaba suddenly stopped.

The good mood seemed to come to an abrupt end here.

It's not that it's gotten that bad.

But...after seeing the woman's figure, Takanashi Wakaba's mood suddenly became strange.

A woman with a slender figure who almost blends in with the bustling scenery of Omotesando.

Tachibana Nagisa was wearing a kimono with the Ashikaga Meisen pattern.

The so-called "Mingxian" is a weaving method, which is a plain weave fabric made of dyed silk.

Ashikaga Meisen represents the place of origin of this kind of fabric.

The characteristic of this type of kimono is that the colors of the fabrics are often bright and colorful, and the patterns of the painted feathers are simple yet exaggerated.

Tachibana Nagisa stood there.

The red and white kimono is dazzlingly white and as brightly red as the setting sun.

If Wakaba Takanashi was not mistaken, it was still a fairly formal visiting kimono.

She stood under a paulownia tree, quietly observing the falling leaves.

Then--

Just as Kotori Wakaba's gaze fell on Tachibana Nagisa, Tachibana Nagisa also lowered her eyes slightly and tilted her head, catching Kotori Wakaba's eye.

【Ding--】

Miss System pulled Takanashi Wakaba into the perspective of future Aunt Wakaba.

Aunt Wakaba is standing on the street in the future, and the person next to her is... Hiiragi Kotori? !!!

Tatari Wakaba originally tried to judge the approximate time point by who would be next to Aunt Wakaba in the future, but she never expected that the person who appeared next to Aunt Wakaba was the newly grown Hiiragi Kotori.

[On the streets of Shinjuku, you saw a figure that made you feel quite uneasy.]

【Because of Hiiragi Miyabi’s request.】

You have to take time out on the weekends to go shopping with Hiiragi Kotori.

You thought babysitting your boss's children was something you'd only see online, but you never imagined it would actually happen to you.

You wanted to refuse.

[But... after swiping the remaining balance on your bank card app, you still succumbed to Hiiragi's advances.]

「She gave me too much... No──」

[It's because of the relationship between you and Hiiragi Miyabi. You can't bear to see Hiiragi Kotori suffer.]

Kotori Wakaba was at a loss for words and felt guilty.

In the future, Aunt Ruoye will obtain the Perfect Life Counterattack System. Unlike her sister who kindly gives out money, this system prepared for the eighteen-year-old Ruoye probably... will not give out money directly.

In the future, Aunt Ruoye will be very short of money.

【You arrive at the meeting place with Hiiragi. 】

【But he realized that only Hiiragi Kotori was present. 】

The girl hugs your arm tightly, and the feeling of being embraced by a beautiful young girl makes you feel a little uncomfortable. You try to pull your arm out of the girl's soft embrace.

A sense of alertness arose in Wakaba Takanashi's heart.

I recalled what Hiiragi Kotori said when she wanted to be her mother but failed and decided to just wait for her to grow up.

Is this...putting this into practice on my future self?

Or does it mean that whether it is Aunt Ruoye or myself in the future, both will be so devastating and beautiful.

You try to keep Hiiragi-chan away from you.

【But...Hiiragi Kotori used her ultimate move. 】

【…】

Wakaba Tatori saw the pitiful tears in the eyes of the grown-up Hiiragi Kotori.

She wrapped her arms around herself, looking pleading.

The girl's lips were dry and trembling, and her heart was trembling.

Although Takanashi Wakaba could remain indifferent to a heartless and ruthless person like Kadota Yumi, she could not face the sobbing and crying of a child like Hiiragi Kotori.

Is this kid...heartbroken?

Takanashi Wakaba sighed that Hiiragi Kotori was actually a potential stock in the future, and tried to comfort her.

Even though she knew that this was just Aunt Ruoye's perspective in the future.

【You can't face a girl's tears. 】

【Finally, you softened your heart.】

You changed the date location from Akihabara to Shinjuku.

Because whenever you walk down the streets of Akihabara, you’ll always think of Tachibana Nagisa.

【You will always feel indebted to me for leaving without saying goodbye. 】

【But you never expected——】

【On the streets of Shinjuku, you met Tachibana Nagisa. 】

Volume 260: Part When she was little, she even called me mom [Six]

Intentionally avoid Tachibana Nagisa.

But we happened to meet on the streets of Shinjuku.

Should Takanashi Wakaba say that this was a coincidence... or was it fate?

The memory scene gradually emerged.

It is October here in Tottori Wakaba, but it seems to be summer where Aunt Mirai Wakaba is.

It’s almost August.

The sun in the sky is getting hotter.

By noon, the air seemed to melt in the high temperature, dancing wildly in the field of vision, presenting a distorted posture.

Tachibana Nagisa stands under the shade of a tree.

She was a little different from Tachibana Nagisa who appeared in front of Takanashi Wakaba at that moment. She was wearing a gorgeous Mingsen kimono. The woman was only wearing a simple yukata.

Although the color is still the trendy light blue, the person wearing it has changed a lot.

From Aunt Wakaba's perspective in the future, Nagisa Tachibana seems to have a rounder and fuller figure than the current Nagisa Tachibana, having benefited from the nourishment of Takanashi Wakaba.

But the expression on his face looked haggard.

There was a tiredness in her eyes that could not be concealed even with makeup.

Over the years, Tachibana Nagisa has worked very hard for Kotori Wakaba.

Aunt Wakaba in the future is far less cheerful than Aunt Wakaba Takanashi now.

After the two got married, Nagisa Tachibana also wanted to take Aunt Wakaba away from the big city of Tokyo.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

She thought that by staying away from the troubles of a busy life, she could temporarily alleviate Aunt Ruoye's social anxiety.

She brought Aunt Future Wakaba back to the hometown of Kotori Wakaba.

Izu.

There they lived for several years.

However, because of Aunt Wakaba's own unbearable situation in the future, she was so afraid of strangers that she couldn't get along with them, and she always had to snuggle up to Tachibana Nagisa.

She was unable to help the family.

She couldn't even run the hot spring hotel her parents had entrusted to her.

The trivial matters eventually evolved into contradictions and conflicts.

In the conflict between Takanashi Wakaba and her family, Tachibana Nagisa repeatedly protected her future aunt Wakaba, and finally -

She chose to leave Izu again with Wakaba Takanashi and return to Tokyo.

Then--

They divorced.

Aunt Wakaba, who couldn't bear to drag down Tachibana Nagisa's future, mustered up the courage for the only time in her life and severed her relationship with Tachibana Nagisa.

She seemed to have never expected to meet Tachibana Nagisa again in such an occasion.

The right fist held by Hiiragi Kotori was clenched tightly, and the nails seemed to be digging deep into the palm of the hand, making the skin there turn pale and bluish.

"Sister Wakaba knows that person?" Hiiragi Kotori, who had looked at Tachibana Nagisa a few more times because of the beautiful kimono she was wearing, now showed a puzzled expression.

Mirai Takanashi Wakaba couldn't speak at all.

【You reunite with Tachibana Nagisa. 】

【But I don’t know how to start. 】

Mirai Takanashi Wakaba stood there helplessly, watching Tachibana Nagisa approaching her aggressively step by step.

"It seems some people are doing well after leaving me."

"No one's nagging you to get up."

"No one's going to keep asking you to submit your work every few hours while you're gaming."

"The most important thing is... there won't be an old, ugly woman around to nag at you. Instead, you'll be a young, beautiful, and lovely girl."

"People really like the new and dislike the old."

Tachibana Nagisa's eyes fell on Hiiragi Kotori, who was holding Kotori Wakaba's arm. She looked at Future Aunt Wakaba and said, "I didn't expect you to be so resourceful."

Auntie Wakaba from the future took the initiative to hold Hiiragi Kotori's arm, "Indeed——"

"The air of freedom is wonderful, the air is sweet."

"I just don't know how long your new love can keep you from getting over it." Tachibana Nagisa said coldly, "Where is that woman named Terajima Shino from last time now?"

"I advise those young lambs."

"Don't believe the devil's sweet words and put everything on the line."

"In the end, he was abandoned without even saying goodbye."

There was a tense situation between Auntie Wakaba in the future and Nagisa Tachibana. Even though they were separated by a long time and space, Takanashi Wakaba suddenly felt sweaty.

From Tachibana Nagisa's perspective, the future Aunt Wakaba does seem a little less human.

He left without saying goodbye and abandoned his wife and daughter... Well, it seems that Aunt Wakaba and Tachibana Nagisa did not have any children.

But outside, Aunt Ruoye in the future already has a biological daughter and an adopted daughter whom she has never met.
