I am the protagonist

How should I talk to Chrome in this situation?

Should we keep it as it is?

After thinking for a moment, Tsuna decided to continue talking to Chrome in the same way he always had.

"Krom..."

But as soon as he opened his mouth, Tsuna realized he didn't know what to say.

I had absolutely no idea how to talk to a girl in this kind of atmosphere.

"Um... let's continue to solidify the basics."

Chrome paused for two seconds before nodding.

"um, yes."

Reborn, far away at the Sawada residence, was so angry that his face turned black.

"This idiot really doesn't use his brain at all!"

"You should take the initiative in times like these!"

It took Reborn a long time to vent his anger over Bianchi's house price before he could finally suppress it.

Now he needs to face everything calmly, otherwise he feels he will definitely be driven crazy by Gangan.

"……never mind."

"This idiot has now started contacting those three girls, which means I've achieved my goal."

Although Reborn was still very dissatisfied with the result, the situation was not unacceptable.

At least what has happened now is really beyond what Tsuna has ever done. If it were before, Reborn would never have believed that Tsuna could be so proactive towards other girls.

It's good that there's growth.

It's good that there's growth.

It's better to grow than not to grow at all.

This is the only explanation that can offer some consolation to Reborn, who is holding his breath.

Chapter 262 Gokudera Also Found a Girlfriend

After Chrome's training came to an end, Tsuna took Chrome to visit Gokudera and Yamamoto's homes.

Today's first battle is at Gokudera's house.

Gokudera actually lives alone in an apartment. When he first came to Japan, he lived in a rather dilapidated small apartment. At that time, he didn't have as much money as he had imagined, and his life was a bit tight. But now things are much better.

Having officially become Tsunayoshi's guardian, his identity has certainly been proven, and this guardian status has provided him with assistance on many levels.

For example, the place I live now is already a high-end apartment.

Of course, Gokudera had better options, but he still chose the apartment, which was much better in terms of size and sophistication than before.

"Ding dong!"

"coming."

The person who opened the door was not Gokudera as expected, but a very unexpected girl.

"...Oh~ Sit P, I'm a little surprised that you're the one who came out."

This phenomenon made Tsunayoshi very clear that this relationship might have already been exposed, which made him no longer want to stay.

"I hope I didn't disturb you."

"There is no such thing."

Tsuna could see a rare hint of unease on SeatP's face, which indicated that his arrival had indeed disturbed the two of them.

"Let's not even talk about whether this is true or not."

"Well, I'll keep your affairs a secret. I was originally planning to come and ask about Gokudera's progress today, but well, let's forget about it for now. We'll talk about it later."

"Chrome and I are leaving now. Just pretend we were never here."

SitP glanced cautiously at the already departing Tenth Prince and Chrome outside the door before letting out a sigh of relief and returning to his room.

"Boss, Gokudera should be considered to have a girlfriend, right?"

"That's it."

"It just happened much earlier than I initially guessed."

In fact, the moment Tsuna realized the interaction between Seat P and Gokudera, he had already guessed that the two were quite compatible. In a sense, they were on the same wavelength, so he was not surprised at all that they would eventually get together.

"What kind of prediction?"

"No, it's just a simple guess that the two of them are compatible and that they might develop some kind of relationship... In short, it's a guess that doesn't take into account any ability factors."

Tsuna has never had the habit of looking into the future of the people around him.

Yes, of course I'll investigate their past, especially the parts he has no memory of.

“Boss, I think the reason why Shit-P and Gokudera are together is because of you.”

"...Could it be because I suggested that Gokudera frequently interact with them?"

"Hmm, I think it's because the Boss had Gokudera frequently interact with SitP that their relationship progressed so rapidly."

"That's possible."

Tsuna did indeed tell Gokudera to spend more time with SitP, and it's not impossible, or rather, very likely, that this request would lead to a further development in the relationship between Gokudera and SitP.

"Since Gokudera has some problems, let's go find Yamamoto first."

The Yamamoto family home wasn't far from Gokudera's home; it was just a few streets away.

Tsuna and Chrome walked across several streets and rang the doorbell again.

"Tsuna? Chrome?"

The person who opened the door this time was Yamamoto.

"Tsuna, what brings you guys here?"

Yamamoto was puzzled as to why Tsuna and Chrome had decided to come over today.

Chrome is with Tsuna.

So, what is Tsuna planning to do here this time?

"What do you think?"

"I came here today to see how you are doing, of course."

The fist appeared in front of Yamamoto the moment he finished speaking.

Yamamoto casually placed a chopstick in front of his fist, unexpectedly stopping its forward momentum.

"Hmm, it looks like you've finished on your end."

Yamamoto reluctantly put away his chopsticks.

"Tsuna, even for a test, is this the way you need to do it?"

"Because I also need to consider whether you have the time, and because I have to see Hibari later, I can only simplify the time a bit."

"So, Tsuna, you went to see Gokudera?"

"I guess so. But it seems he really has a lot of trouble ahead of him, so Chrome and I left quite early."

"No way……"

[If Gokudera knew it was Tsuna who went to find him, he definitely wouldn't let Tsuna leave so easily.]

Although Yamamoto knew that Gokudera's personality had changed a lot, Gokudera still put Tsuna's affairs first. If Tsuna really went to find Gokudera, he would definitely put everything else aside.

"After all, everyone has their own time, and naturally there are times when they are not inconvenient."

Tsuna immediately changed the subject regarding Gokudera.

"It's like Chrome and I are going to Sasagawa's house to check on things, but I don't know if Sasagawa has the time."

"As for Sasagawa-senpai... why don't we just ask Kyoko-san?"

"If I could ask, I would have asked already."

Tsuna continued speaking, despite Yamamoto's puzzled look.

"When we went to the future, didn't I ask Bianchi to protect Kyoko and Koharu? Actually, the two of them have been living together since then, and their parents have been reassigned to work elsewhere."

"In other words, Kyoko is now living with Koharu, while Sasagawa is living in his old home."

Yamamoto was slightly surprised by this.

"So, Sasagawa-senpai has been living alone all this time... In that case, Kyoko-san, are you at ease?"

Tsuna understood Yamamoto's meaning. In fact, he also knew that Sasagawa was not a very reliable person in life, and it would probably be difficult for him to take care of himself.

However, Yamamoto overlooked some special factors in this regard.

"Yamamoto, when considering whether Sasagawa can live a good life on his own, you should also consider his current situation first."

"Um, is Sasagawa-senpai not doing well right now?"

"..."

"Perhaps you didn't understand what I meant. What I meant was that Sasakawa is not single right now."

Yamamoto then realized what he had been missing: that Sasagawa-senpai had started dating a girl.

"Now that Kyoko isn't living with Sasagawa, it's actually a help to Sasagawa. At least there are some things that Sasagawa can talk to his girlfriend about directly."

"Moreover, the best decision for Sasagawa is for him to live alone at home now."

"Not afraid of being discovered!"

Yamamoto instantly understood the meaning of those words.

Chapter 263 Mist and Rain: A Terrible Combination

"I knew it. If Sasagawa-senpai had run into any trouble, he would have called out by now, instead of waiting until now without making a sound."

If life were unbearable, then Sasakawa-senpai would absolutely not suffer. It was only because of his life in the future world that Yamamoto had enough experience to say such a thing that he could be sure that Sasakawa-senpai was living a very good life during this period.

Tsunayoshi knew this too, after all, Sasagawa wasn't the kind of person who would let himself be wronged.

Knowing his personality basically tells you what he's really up to.

He didn't care about his sister living elsewhere because he knew that Kyoko's place was safe; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to relax these past few days.

"Sasagawa is definitely not the kind of person who hides his secrets."

"Even if he's been trying to hide his emotions lately, the way he lives every day doesn't give him any reason to dislike anything, which is enough to reveal what he's been up to lately."

“After all, he used to talk about Kyoko all the time. Suddenly, Sasagawa has stopped calling out Kyoko’s name. That’s a problem.”

If we analyze it using Tsunayoshi's method, it's actually quite easy to see that Sasagawa has recently reduced the amount of time he talks about his younger sister.

In contrast, Sasakawa has recently become increasingly conscious of his image.

Putting everything else aside, this alone is enough for Tsunayoshi to ascertain Sasakawa's recent movements.

"That's right. Usually, all I hear Sasagawa-senpai talk about is Kyoko-san and her name."

“This has been happening much less frequently lately, which is completely unlike Sasakawa-senpai.”

"Well, Yamamoto, let's not talk about this anymore. We should give Kyoko some face."

Yamamoto smiled and nodded, thus changing the subject.

"Tsuna, Chrome's training is over again?"

In fact, Yamamoto had been paying attention to Chrome's situation from the very beginning.

Although Chrome's presence wasn't actually very strong, especially after she mastered illusion magic, Yamamoto felt that Chrome's presence was extremely low, even below a certain level.

This is the effect of illusion.

Yamamoto understood perfectly well the reason behind this low profile.

This lack of presence is the effect of an illusion.

Chrome's illusion magic is very powerful, but why is his presence even less noticeable today?
