"Mhm." Connor nodded, indicating that he agreed with Thor's point of view.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu stared speechlessly at the two dragons. That reason gets full marks...

but……

Tsuchimikado Fuyu glanced at Tohru. Could it be that Tohru's affection for her cousin wasn't just because her cousin saved her, but also because of her cousin's hair... After all, red is synonymous with being soaked in human blood...

"Xiao Dong, what's wrong?" Fortunately, Tohru's voice stopped Tsuchimikado Dong from continuing his wild imagination, otherwise, who knows what kind of bizarre scenes Tsuchimikado Dong would have imagined.

"It's nothing, let's go pay. Now all we need to do is buy school uniforms," ​​Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile, shaking his head.

"Oh." Thor nodded, took the bag from Connor's hand, and prepared to go pay together.

However, on the way, Connor's eyes were drawn to a blue rabbit pendant, and then Tsuchimikado Fuyu made Connor take the pendant.

"Thirty-five thousand yuan," the cashier said.

"So expensive?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu frowned as he looked at the bag in his hand.

Although he didn't care about the money, the fact that such an ordinary bag was so expensive really shocked Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

"Xiao Dong, is it because you don't have enough money?" Tohru asked worriedly when he saw Tsuchimikado Dong frowning.

After all, she didn't want to cause too much trouble for Kobayashi. She had already troubled Kobayashi enough by eating and staying at his house for free, and if the expenses were too high, Tor would feel bad about it.

Connor looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with concern, preparing to put the pendant back on his hand. It was an unnecessary item; he couldn't waste money buying these things anymore.

"We have enough money, but we were scared off by the price," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile, patting Connor's head.

After paying and leaving the store, Tohru looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with concern and whispered in his ear, "Are you really alright?"

"Don't worry, Tohru-nee, but don't tell my cousin about this price. She only gave me a budget of 30,000, so she probably doesn't have much money left either," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said in a low voice.

"That's too much trouble for you," Thor sighed. She understood what Tsuchimikado Tou meant; he wanted to make up for the extra money he had spent himself.

"Don't worry, Tohru, I have plenty of money, it's fine," Tsuchimikado Fuyu explained. "Besides, this is also my gift to Connor for starting school."

Chapter 216 School Uniforms and Differences

"Then I'll trouble you. ∷∷∷∷,2∞3o≠" Thor nodded and said, but he was determined to find an opportunity to go back and bring his treasure with him, and prepare a good gift for Xiaodong.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu glanced at the red bag and sighed. "Children's things still make money. Back then, my bag cost less than 5,000 yen. Even if times have changed, they can't have changed this fast."

Soon, Tsuchimikado Fuyu and his friends arrived at a school uniform store.

Tohru looked at the ordinary school uniform store, then at the uniforms inside, and whispered to Tsuchimikado Fuyu, "Fuyu, coming to a store like this again, Connor will throw a tantrum."

"There's nothing we can do. This is the only store designated by the school; they're the only place that sells Connor School uniforms," ​​Tsuchimikado Fuyu said, pointing to the address on the preparation manual.

“What a bunch of scoundrels,” Thor remarked.

"Although there's a conflict of interest, this collusion is a bit much." Tsuchimikado Fuyu pointed to the prices and said, "It's precisely because of stores like this that school uniforms aren't so expensive."

"Really?" Thor looked at the price with a puzzled expression and said.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu smiled but didn't say anything. Instead, following the instructions in the manual, he found the school uniform for Connor School, along with indoor shoes, a tracksuit, and a yellow hat.

“They all look the same,” Tohru said, looking at Tsuchimikado Fuyutetsu’s school uniform.

"That's why it's called a school uniform. It's necessary to eliminate differences," Tsuchimikado Fuyu explained with a smile.

Why eliminate differences?

"Because people are different—in terms of background, nationality, personality, and even gender—these differences can lead to feelings of imbalance. School uniforms are designed to minimize this imbalance. ∞∞∞∞,︾o@"

While it's impossible to completely eliminate them, at least superficially they will be significantly reduced.

"What would happen if we didn't eliminate it?"

"Exclusion, bullying, inferiority complex, etc. are all possible. Humans don't like things that are different from themselves, whether good or bad. Humans are very complex."

"How foolish," Thor exclaimed.

"Yeah, I think it's stupid too, but that's human nature. We're instinctively afraid of the unusual, and those reactions are just a manifestation of that fear."

"Kobayashi too?"

"Sister Thor, don't overthink it. My cousin is much more capable than those mortals, at least mentally. She's very strong." Tsuchimikado Tou said with a smile, "She really enjoys being with you. She smiles much more often than before, but she just doesn't realize it."

Moreover, if one's mind is not strong, it would be impossible to tame two giant dragons!

Of course, Tsuchimikado Fuyu didn't say this aloud.

"Really?" Torton smiled happily, his face full of joy. "I'll definitely have to do my best when I get back."

"Good luck, Tohru! Try to win over your cousin soon. I'm looking forward to her wedding!" Tsuchimikado Tohru encouraged Tohru.

"Oh!"

Suddenly, Kanna tugged at the hem of Tsuchimikado Fuyu's clothes. Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked curiously, "Kanna-chan, what's wrong?"

"Winter is also very powerful."

"Really? Thank you for the encouragement, Connor-chan, but I haven't experienced those things." Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile, patting Connor's head.

Actually, it's not that Tsuchimikado Fuyu didn't experience those things; Tsuchimikado Fuyu's predecessor simply deliberately distanced himself from everyone to protect himself.

It's better to be alone than to be hurt by others.

However, this statement was never actually used by Tsuchimikado Fuyu, because while he initially had Aki Tomoya, he had many more friends, and Tsuchimikado Fuyu was never alone.

Rather than being afraid of being hurt by others, it's more accurate to say that I haven't found the right person yet. I'm happy with everyone I have now, and I really enjoy this everyday life.

Of course, the premise is that you can't be short of money.

As for Tsuchimikado Fuyu in his previous life, he also used various methods to make himself look the same as everyone else, so as not to stand out too much, and naturally he was never bullied.

Although it was deliberate, there was no other way; people have to learn to save themselves.

……

Back home, it was only a little past three in the afternoon. Tsuchimikado Fuyu was playing games with Connor in the living room, while Tohru started tidying up the room.

Around 1:00 PM, Thor finished preparing dinner, and Kobayashi returned home at that time.

"Kobayashi, look, look!" Connor rushed into the room as Kobayashi walked in, then ran out with his bag and called out to Kobayashi.

"Oh, that's great!" Kobayashi smiled and patted Connor's head, saying, "Yeah, so cute."

After receiving praise from Kobayashi, Connor ran up to Tsuchimikado Fuyu and said, "Fuyu, look, look!"

"Kanna-chan is so cute," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile, echoing Kanna's sentiment.

"Lord Thor, look, look!"

Instead of praising Connor, Thor crouched down and whispered to Connor, "Connor, can I borrow that one too?"

"?" Connor looked at Thor in confusion, then took off his bag and handed it to Thor.

Although she didn't know what Thor wanted to take care of, Connor wouldn't refuse since it was Thor's request.

Not long after, Thor ran out of the room and shouted to Kobayashi, "Kobayashi, look! How is it?"

Kobayashi and Tsuchimikado looked over at the sound and saw Thor carrying Connor's bag.

"Too much pretense is counterproductive, don't you understand?" Kobayashi said with a dark face.

Thor was startled and quickly returned the bag to Connor, though he wasn't very happy about it.

I'm unhappy because I didn't receive praise from Xiaolin today.

During dinner, Connor was still carrying his bag and didn't want to put it down. Kobayashi asked with a smile, "Connor-chan, are you looking forward to going to school?"

“Hmm,” Connor nodded and said.

……

After the meal, Kobayashi inquired about the day's expenses, and Tsuchimikado Fuyu casually mentioned 20,000 yen. Tohru, standing nearby, nodded hurriedly, not giving Kobayashi a chance to ask for the shopping list.

We can't let Xiaolin spend any more money. As for what he owes Xiaodong, Thor has kept it in mind and plans to find an opportunity to repay him with something else.

Since Tsuchimikado Fuyu had already made his point clear, Tohru couldn't directly return the money, but she could give him a gift instead.

If Xiao Dong can give Connor a gift, then naturally she can give him a gift too. In that case, Tsuchimikado Dong has no reason to refuse. Does that mean that an older sister can't give her younger brother a gift?

Kobayashi didn't actually want a shopping list. She simply gave Tsuchimikado Tou 30,000 yen. She originally wanted to give him more as pocket money, but unfortunately, she didn't have much money left, so she couldn't give him more.

After all, she still needs to support two dragons, so she needs to keep some money on her person. 11

Chapter 217 The Amnesiac Girl

"I am back."

Back home, Tsuchimikado Fuyu habitually called out, but no one responded.

"Is everyone in the courtyard?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu muttered curiously. At this time of day, Gabriel would usually pester Koi to help her make dinner.

Upon entering the courtyard, I saw a group of people crowded outside a house, looking inside as if they were looking at something.

And... that room seems to be mine, right?

Tsuchimikado Fuyu walked over in confusion and asked Tatsumi Kotaro, who was standing on the outermost edge, "What's going on inside?"

"Winter, a ghost has been discovered in your house."

"A ghost?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized, "It's her! Could it be that she's already awake?"

"Alright, alright, everyone stop crowding at the door, we can't get out." Suddenly, Xiaoyi's voice came from inside, and everyone dispersed, making way for the people inside.

"Sister Xiaoyi, has that child woken up?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked when he saw Xiaoyi.

"Hmm, but it's a bit troublesome."

"what happened?"

“That child has amnesia,” Xiaoyi said with a sigh.

At this moment, Gabriel also came out and said, "Because she has amnesia, we don't know what her wish is, and we can't help her ascend to heaven. We can only wait for her to remember."

"Is that so?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's leave it at that for now. But can this kind of amnesia be cured?"

"There's definitely no way to treat it, but she was severely injured in the attack. Although she has woken up, she still needs time to recover. Once she fully recovers, her memory should return to normal naturally."

"I understand. Let her stay here for now. We'll consider helping her ascend to heaven once her memory returns." Tsuchimikado Fuyu nodded and said, "By the way, what about the child?"

"She's asleep. We just calmed her down. Let's talk about it when she wakes up tomorrow," Xiaoyi said.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Xiaoyi-nee, to take care of me," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said.
