Hearing the knock on the door, Shinomiya Kaguya paused for a moment and subconsciously looked at Hayasaka Ai, as if asking her, "Do you know who is outside?"

Hayasaka Ai shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know either.

"who is it?"

Having not gotten an answer, Kaguya Shinomiya could only ask herself.

"Kaguya, it's me."

Father?

After being stunned for a moment, Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly turned her head to look at Hayasaka Ai.

"Hayasaka! ! Didn't you say that father wasn't home? ! ! "

Hayasaka Ai looked innocent.

"I just said that it seemed like he wasn't there, but I wasn't completely sure. Blame me~"

After a brief eye contact, Shinomiya Kaguya, who felt inexplicably nervous, gathered her thoughts and prepared to open the door herself.

Looking at the door getting closer and closer, Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't help but wonder why her father came to her this time.

In her impression, her father didn't pay much attention to her. From childhood to adulthood, the number of times her father met her was very few, let alone taking the initiative to look for her.

While I was thinking, the bedroom door was right in front of me.

Kaguya Shinomiya did not hesitate. She put on a standard social smile and gently opened the door.

"Click"

"Good day, Father."

Shinomiya Kaguya greeted her father with an impeccable smile.

"kindness."

Shigong Yan'an nodded somewhat coldly as a response.

"Father, please come in."

Shinomiya Kaguya took a step back and made way for the door.

Shigong Yan'an slowly walked into the room.

In the bedroom, Hayasaka Ai stepped forward and said goodbye at the right time.

"Master Commander, Hayasaka will take his leave..."

Shigong Yanan waved his hand, interrupting Hayasaka Ai and said, "It's just a few words, you don't have to leave, just stay here."

"Okay, Master Commander."

Hayasaka Ai straightened up, stepped aside, and quietly served as a background board.

"Kaguya..."

Shinomiya Yanan turned around, looked at Shinomiya Kaguya, and asked calmly: "How have you been in school recently?"

“Everything is good. The classmates are friendly, the teachers are kind, the studies are easy, and the club activities are also enjoyable.”

"Really? That's good."

After a brief conversation, Sigong Yan'an suddenly fell silent, as if he was thinking about something.

Shinomiya Kaguya didn't know what to say. She could only maintain a smile on the surface and brainstorm frantically in secret, trying to predict her father's next questions.

After a long while, Shinomiya Yan'an suddenly looked at Shinomiya Kaguya and asked.

"Kaguya, do you have someone you like at school?"

"Eh?!"

Kaguya Shinomiya, who was brainstorming, paused for a moment, and the image of Student Council President Shirogane Miyuki popped up in her mind.

“No…no!”

With her pretty face slightly flushed, Kaguya Shinomiya replied in a panic.

"......" Shigong Yan'an remained silent.

He admitted that he was an old-fashioned person, but he was not so stupid as to not be able to see the obvious thoughts of the little girl.

Kaguya has grown up too...

Unfortunately......

Shigong Yan'an's expression darkened slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.

"Ah~"

Seeing this scene, Hayasaka Ai, who was silently serving as a background board, sighed in her heart.

My lovely Miss Kaguya, you are beyond help, just wait for death.

"..."

At this moment, Kaguya Shinomiya finally realized that her performance was too obvious.

Her breathing stagnated and she stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do.

"That's good..."

"Eh?!"

Hearing her father's words, Shinomiya Kaguya was slightly stunned.

Ah this...

Didn't her father notice her little trick? Did she pass the test smoothly?!

However, before she could feel secretly happy, her father's next words immediately threw her into an ice cellar.

"If there is... Kaguya, you should just forget about him. That will be good for both you and him."

"..."

Shinomiya Kaguya looked at her father with blank eyes.

Why did Father say that?

Could it be that... father has already chosen a marriage partner for her?

She will meet the other person at her eldest brother’s birthday party tomorrow?

Shinomiya Yan'an stared at Shinomiya Kaguya silently without giving any explanation.

Before you seek victory, seek defeat first.

His old brother's excessive caution made him extremely uneasy, and he always had a bad feeling.

If tomorrow's action is successful, there will be no need to say more.

But if you fail...

Kaguya will become that man's maid, his eldest son will die, and the entire Shinomiya family will have to kneel down and submit to him.

That person's temperament is mysterious and unpredictable.

At that time, if Kaguya showed in front of that man that she had someone else in love, he was worried that Kaguya would be abused.

"Ah~"

Seeing the confusion and puzzlement in Kaguya's eyes, Shinomiya Yan'an sighed silently and couldn't bear to watch any further.

He turned around and looked at Hayasaka Ai beside him.

"Hayasaka, come here."

"Master Commander, what do you want?"

Hayasaka Ai walked to one meter in front of Shinomiya Yanan, bent down respectfully and asked.

"Hayasaka, if I asked you to accompany Kaguya to a very dangerous place, would you be willing to go?"

"I am willing!"

Hayasaka Ai didn't hesitate at all.

At the same time, she was secretly trying to figure out the true meaning of the commander-in-chief's words.

Considering the conversation between the commander-in-chief and Miss Kaguya just now, she was a little skeptical whether the commander-in-chief was going to marry Kaguya to a man with a very bad reputation.

It's strange. Given the tremendous power of the Shinomiya family in Japan, this kind of situation would not have happened even if Miss Kaguya was not valued.

Unless...it's an overseas chaebol, and an overseas chaebol whose overall strength is even stronger than that of the Shinomiya family?

The Rothschilds? The Morgans? The DuPonts? Or someone else?

In the entire world, there are not many families more powerful than the Shinomiya family. Hayasaka Ai eliminated each family one by one in her mind.

"Hayasaka, you are a good child. You are more patient than Kaguya. If...if things are really irreparable, I ask you to take good care of Kaguya, don't let her suffer any grievances, and don't let her do anything stupid."

"Master Commander, you are too kind. It is my responsibility to take care of Miss Kaguya. But..."

Hayasaka Ai paused, and asked solemnly: "Master General, I don't understand, who could force the Shinomiya family to this extent? To the point that you even have to send Miss Kaguya away."

"You will know tomorrow... Alas~"

Sigong Yan'an sighed softly and said with a gloomy look: "Tomorrow you all stay by my side. Don't run around. It will be dangerous."

"Danger?"

Hayasaka Ai was stunned.

Tomorrow's birthday party will be dangerous? What is going on? Is someone trying to take action against the Shinomiya family?

"Take good care of Kaguya. I'm leaving now."

After taking one last look at Shinomiya Kaguya, Shinomiya Yan'an left in a desolate manner.

After watching Shinomiya Gan'an leave, Shinomiya Kaguya and Hayasaka Ai looked at each other.

At this moment, Kaguya Shinomiya finally realized that things were much more serious than she had expected.

024. "Submission? Or death?"

.........

Morning of May 5th, Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto.

A middle-aged man wearing a dark kimono and with a bald head was pacing restlessly in an extremely quiet courtyard.

I, Sigong Huangguang, am the eldest son of the Sigong family and the future heir of the Sigong family.

(Although the successor is not completely confirmed, everyone thinks so, including me.)

Today is my 45th birthday, which should have been a good day, but... my dad's sudden intervention made everything weird.

Since a few days ago, I don't know what my father was doing. He found many retired soldiers from the Self-Defense Forces, armed them, and hid them in batches in the Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto.

In addition, Dad also found a lot of foreign mercenaries and killers. The former are hiding in the hotel now, and even he doesn’t know where the latter are hiding.

He asked someone to roughly count them. There were more than 2600 retired Self-Defense Force soldiers alone, and more than 700 mercenary units. The exact number of killers was unclear, but it would not be less than 20.

When all the numbers are added up, there are more than 3300 people.

So many people were crowded in the hotel. Fortunately, the Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto is a garden hotel and the viewing forest area is large enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people.

Such a big move naturally cannot be hidden from those who are interested.

In the past few days, many people have been asking him what the old man meant.

He also wanted to know what the old man meant. He asked several times, but the old man didn't tell him the truth. He just told him to be careful recently.

Seeing the old man making a bigger and bigger fuss, he didn't understand.

Who is the old man guarding against?

Anti-Godzilla?

"Master Huang Guang, it's almost time."

While I was feeling annoyed, a clear and beautiful female voice came from outside the courtyard.
