Kasugano Sora suddenly smiled, then stomped her black-clad foot on Chen Mo's face.

"Hehe!" Kasugano Sora laughed happily when she saw Chen Mo's expression.

"Oh, you! You actually dared to ambush your brother."

Chen Mo grabbed her foot.

"It's because my brother never came to see Qiong."

Kasugano Sora spoke.

"But your brother misses you."

Chen Mo stood up and looked at Kasugano Sora in front of him.

She looked up and saw the flashlight. From this, Kasugano Sora believed Chen Mo's words. She had heard a saying that if you don't love someone, you will never have any feelings.

But the fact that Chen Mo stood up as soon as he saw her was enough to explain everything.

"Brother, does Qiong need help?"

Kasugano Sora hesitated for a moment, then looked ahead and spoke.

Chen Mo glanced down and thought he should buy some looser pants next time; it didn't seem right to constantly expose his strength here.

"It's okay! I can handle it."

Chen Mo smiled slightly and shook his head.

"Does my brother dislike me?" Kasugano Sora lowered her head.

"Of course not."

Chen Mo immediately explained, "Brother, I just didn't want Qiong to get tired!"

Kasugano Sora immediately replied, "Sora isn't tired! Sora wants to help her brother."

Chen Mo nodded slightly, "Since Qiong has said so, then I'll leave it to you."

"Okay!" Kasugano Sora nodded happily, "I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"

At Akizuki's house, Akizuki Airi lay on the bed looking unwell.

Akizuki Hanako sat down beside her, holding water and medicine in her hand. "Airi, are you feeling better? Why don't you take some cold medicine?"

Akizuki Airi gently shook her head, "I don't want to eat."

"Silly child, you'll get better faster if you take the medicine."

Akizuki Kazuko said with some heartache, "And how are you going to see the manager like this?"

"Manager!" Akizuki Airi's eyes lit up. "That's right, manager!"

She felt unwell all day, which caused her to miss school and thus miss the convenience store.

"So you might feel better if you just take your medicine."

Akizuki Hanako looked at Akizuki Airi seriously and said.

Akizuki Airi nodded slightly, obediently took the water and medicine from her hand, and then tilted her head back to drink it down.

"Get some sleep, you'll be fine tomorrow."

Qiu Yuehua covered her with the blanket and comforted her.

"Ah."

Airi Akizuki nodded seriously.

I absolutely must see the store manager tomorrow.

"Mom!" Akizuki Marina called out from the doorway. "What's wrong?" Akizuki Hanako covered Akizuki Airi with a blanket and then went over to ask.

Marina Akizuki hesitated for a moment, "Mom, my aunt hasn't come."

Akizuki Kayoko paused for a moment, staring at Akizuki Marina, "Are you sure? The time isn't wrong, is it?"

"Mom, you know, my period is always very punctual."

Marina Akizuki nodded immediately.

Akizuki Hanako immediately checked the calendar and the time. "That's right, you did come at this time. You're always so punctual... but this time..."

Marina Akizuki looked up at Hanako Akizuki, "Mom, do you think it might be..."

"Okay, stop overthinking it."

Qiu Yuehua stepped forward, hugged her, and spoke.

"Mom, I'm not actually scared."

Marina Akizuki shook her head.

"Hmm?" Akizuki Kayoko looked at Akizuki Marina with a hint of surprise in her expression.

“Hmm…” Akizuki Marina nodded gently, “Actually, I’m quite looking forward to it.”

Akizuki Kayoko looked at Akizuki Marina in front of her, "Yes, Marina has grown up. There are some things I really can't stop, but I will do my best to protect you."

Marina Akizuki nodded immediately, "Yes, Mom! Actually, I just wanted to confirm."

"Mom will take you to see it tomorrow."

Qiu Yuehua nodded on behalf of her son, "You are an adult now, and it's time for you to make your own decisions. But whatever you decide, you must remember that your mother will always be on your side."

Marina Akizuki nodded gently, "Thank you, Mom!"

"Of course, if your mother experiences the same thing as you, I hope you will support her as well."

Akizuki Kazuko looked at her and spoke.

Marina Akizuki looked at Hanako Akizuki in surprise, "Mom, you too..."

"Don't worry, I'm just using an analogy to give you a heads-up, and I hope you can accept it."

Qiu Yuehua spoke up, giving a word of advice on behalf of her son.

Marina Akizuki nodded gently, "Um... okay."

Although this sounds a bit outrageous, it is indeed a normal occurrence, especially since, if this trend continues, a family of three may very well become a family of six next year.

The Devil's Convenience Store, Kasugano Sora's Room.

Kasugano Sora wore a happy smile as she noticed a layer of white mist covering her feet, enveloping her in a white fog.

"Are you satisfied?"

Chen Mo smiled slightly. Kasugano Sora had just used foot fetish. Kasugano Sora gently shook her head, "Brother, don't pretend you're stupid."

Chen Mo gently tapped Kasugano Sora's forehead. It seemed that this little girl was getting harder and harder to fool as she grew up.

Kasugano Sora grinned, "Brother has to knock me out first."

Chen Mo stepped forward, picked her up, and began repairing the flashlight.

Outside the Devil's Convenience Store, Vermouth leaned against the overpass, a thin cigarette in her hand, gently exhaling smoke rings that drifted into the void on the wind.

Behind her, Rena Mizunashi and Curaçao slowly appeared.

"how's it going?"

Vermouth asked slowly and deliberately.

"They've all been disposed of!"

Rena Mizunashi nodded. "I've taken ten here."

Curaçao: "I have nine here."

Vermouth nodded slightly. "That Rum guy is really something, sending nineteen men to deal with the manager."

She seemed to realize something and looked towards the hotel behind her. "Something's not right!"

"Is there a problem?" Rena Mizunashi asked quickly.

"One more to go."

Vermouth began, "This mission had twenty people, but we only managed to eliminate nineteen."

"Was I jumped out?" Curaçao asked, feeling somewhat guilty.

“No, she’s still hiding in the shadows,” Vermouth shook her head. “This one should be a sniper. It was my oversight. I’ll deal with her.”

In one of the hotel rooms, a woman who appears to be tall with short, mushroom-shaped, reddish-brown hair is standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling window. She has black eyeshadow on her eyes, a butterfly tattoo under her left eye, a black choker, a low-cut black bodysuit, black leather shoes, black fingerless gloves, and occasionally a black hat.

She held a PSG-1 sniper rifle in her hand, her gaze fixed downwards.

“Absinthe!” Chianti frowned; she hadn’t received the signal for the operation.

Looking down from her sniper rifle, she could see that there were no good spots left.

If there's no one at one location, it might mean they've moved to another place to check, but there's no one at several locations.

That definitely indicates a major problem, and the fact that absinthe was also found suggests that the area has been cleared out.

"Damn vermouth! This is an act of betrayal!" Chianti narrowed her eyes, and when she aimed down again, she found that Vermouth was nowhere to be seen. "Hmm! Where did she go!"

Chianti frowned and quickly searched below, but still found no trace of the other person.

"Strange, where did he go?" Chianti broke out in a cold sweat, but he couldn't find any trace of Vermouth.

"Who are you looking for?" A voice suddenly came from behind Chianti.

Chianti tensed up and turned to fire, but Vermouth had already grabbed the muzzle and moved it elsewhere, attaching a silencer, so it was practically silent.

Absinthe!

Chianti gritted her teeth and stared intently at the other person.

Vermouth looked at Chianti ahead and said, "Heh, what's wrong! You missed me so much after just a few days?"

“You’ve betrayed the organization!” Chianti stared at her and said.

"Oh? Betrayal? Don't talk nonsense! I didn't do anything!" Vermouth took a drag of her cigarette and sat down in a chair. "But you! You actually dared to kill me! Who gave you permission to do it?"

Chianti glared at Vermouth, "Shut up!"

Vermouth sneered, "I can make you disappear from this world! Or I can let you live! It's up to you to choose."
