Hearing his sister's affirmative answer, Okita Sougo blushed again and repeated happily.

"I, I'm very happy."

"Hmm~"

Seeing her brother's childish reaction, Okita Mitsuha couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At the same time, Shang Yang and Shana almost laughed out loud when they heard the conversation between Okita Sougo and his sister.

On the other side, opposite the table where Okita Mitsuha and Okita Sougo were sitting, Yamazaki Tai (note: a complaining role in the Shinsengumi like Shimura Shinpachi) and another Shinsengumi member were secretly observing the Okita siblings.

Yamazaki Tai was still observing quietly with the telescope, while the Shinsengumi member next to him had already been lying on the table with laughter.

"That guy is actually pretending to be a kid... Hahahahaha..."

"But I'm worried. The air in Edo is different from the air in the countryside of Mushu (Note: the countryside of Musashi Province where Okita Mitsuha lived). It's very dirty. I'm afraid it will be bad for your sister's health."

At this point, Okita Sougo showed an indignant look and pointed his finger outside the window at the exhaust vent of a factory.

"Please look at that exhaust vent! It's so dirty!"

"Eh?"

Hearing her brother say this, Okita Mitsuha subconsciously turned sideways and looked outside.

And in this brief moment, Okita Sougo, who had been looking reserved, picked up a rocket launcher from somewhere, pointed it at the direction where Yamazaki and the others were peeking with a ferocious look, and fired a rocket launcher.

boom! ! !

“Aa ...

The screams of Yamazaki Tai and another Shinsengumi member who were blown away by the rocket resounded throughout the restaurant. The waiters and guests in the Western restaurant also stared blankly at the corner that was blown away by the rocket, with horror on their faces.

However, Okita Mitsuha still looked outside without noticing and asked curiously.

"What, where is it, Mr. Xiao?"

It was not until the smell of thick smoke produced by gunpowder drifted over here that Okita Mitsuha looked at the place where black smoke was coming out not far away in confusion and asked in confusion.

“…Oh my, what happened?”

As she spoke, Okita Mitsuha frowned and raised her hand to disperse the smell of smoke.

"What a terrible smell..."

"The air is really bad."

Similarly, looking at the center of the explosion caused by himself, Okita Sougo also said with a look of concern.

"I hope it won't affect my sister's lungs..."

"My illness has gotten much better."

Hearing this, Okita Mitsuha gently spoke to comfort her brother.

"Thanks to Mr. Xiao who sends money back every month, I won't have any problems with treatment."

Having said that, Okita Mitsuha paused for a moment and asked with some concern.

"But speaking of which, Mr. Xiao, are you okay? Do you enjoy your three meals a day?"

"Eh...ah! They're all delicious!"

“No matter how busy you are, do you ever get enough sleep?”

"I slept so well! I fell asleep before I even had time to count sheep!"

"Are you getting along well with everyone? Are you not being bullied?"

"Well... there are some annoying guys every now and then, but I won't give in!"

"So... what about my friends? Do you have anyone I can talk to about my troubles with?"

Hearing this question raised by his sister with concern, Okita Sougo was stunned. Then, as if he had made up his mind, Okita Sougo stood up with a firm tone.

"Sister, I'm going to bring my friends over now!"

After making a firm promise to his concerned sister, the captain of the Shinsengumi's First Division turned and ran out of the restaurant.

At this time, next door, Shang Yang, who had finally suppressed his laughter, let out a long sigh.

However, the situation of Shana, who was facing Shang Yang, was not so good.

Shana was already lying on the table, her little face buried between her arms, her petite body shaking constantly.

Shana, who was trying to hold back her laughter and had a stomachache, covered her lower abdomen. The petite girl was like a rolled-up shrimp, holding back her laughter with great difficulty. Her hanging black hair also trembled with Shana's movements.

There is no doubt that Miss Shana was almost laughing out loud because of the conversation between the brother and sister.

A few minutes later.

When he sat back in his seat, another person sat down next to Okita Sougo.

"Let me introduce my sister."

Deliberately pretending to be proud, Okita Sougo gestured to Sakata Gintoki, the unmotivated owner of the Yorozuya who was standing next to him with half-open eyes, and introduced him to his sister.

"This is my good friend, Sakata Gintoki..."

Bang! ! !

Before Okita Sougo could finish his introduction, Sakata Gintoki, with an expressionless face, pressed the captain of the Shinsengumi First Division on the head and smashed the plate of food on the table.

While Okita Mitsuha was stunned, Sakata Gintoki turned his head and asked quietly with displeasure.

"Hey! When did I become your friend?!"

"Boss, so-called friends don't become friends in one day."

Raising his head, Okita Sougo explained with a blank expression on his face, which was covered with food crumbs.

"It was formed unconsciously..."

"...And then, friends also left without us noticing."

As he said this, Sakata Gintoki stood up and walked towards the door without looking back.

Faced with this situation, Okita Sougo simply stood up, turned sideways and calmly greeted the waiter.

"Excuse me, three more chocolate sundaes here..."

"We should be considered friends!"

The Yorozuya owner immediately sat back in his original seat and explained to the confused Okita Mitsuha in a serious and shameless manner.

"He's already like a younger brother to me! That's probably how it feels, right? Soichiro-kun?"

"…My name is Sougo."

"I also admire your attention to such small details."

As if he didn't hear the boy's correction, Gintoki continued to change Okita Sougo's name while eating a bite of his chocolate sundae.

"Yagami Soichiro-kun." (Note: Yagami Soichiro is the father of Light Yagami, the protagonist of Death Note.)

"My name is Sougo."

"This kid is making friends with people older than him again."

At this time, her sister Okita Mitsuha, who had come to her senses, also smiled gently.

"The people around Xiao Zong since he was a child are all older than him."

"It's okay, sis."

Hearing this, Okita Sougo also explained with a smile.

"This person's mind is still stuck in the summer of his second year of junior high school."

"A sophomore? How could you choose the dumbest biology sophomore in the world?"

After hearing what Okita Sougo said, Gintoki retorted calmly.

"That's not right, Soichiro-kun."

"My name is Sougo."

Meanwhile, in the next seat.

While listening to their conversation, Shang Yang whispered to Shana who was eating tiramisu with a spoon.

"From what I hear, Okita Mitsuha's purpose for coming to Edo hasn't changed: she's still here to greet her future husband. However, Hijikata Toshiro will soon discover that her future husband, the wealthy trader and owner of the "Tenkai-ya" restaurant, Kuraba Touma, has close ties to the radical Ronin. Furthermore, Kuraba Touma is smuggling a large number of dangerous weapons, selling them to the Ronin and making a fortune."

"so what?"

Putting down the small spoon, Shana asked expressionlessly.

"Are you going to ruin someone's marriage first and then facilitate another one?"

"I also want to curb the radical anti-foreign ronin."

Hearing this, Shang Yang answered casually.

"Although the existence of police organizations like the Shinsengumi has prevented Edo from developing into a Middle Eastern society where suicide bombers are commonplace, the so-called radical anti-barbarian ronin are, in fact, terrorist organizations."

"The actions of terrorists cannot advance history."

On this side, Sakata Gintoki and Okita Sougo were complaining to each other while quickly eating the chocolate sundae in front of them.

In a short while, two of the three chocolate sundaes in front of Sakata Gintoki were empty. Just as Sakata Gintoki was about to open the last one, Okita Sougo tilted his head and whispered a request to Gintoki.

"Boss, please, my sister's lungs are not very good and can't withstand too much pressure. I don't want her to worry. Please try to make her think that you are a reliable friend..."

Just as Sougo Okita was whispering a request to Gintoki, Mitsuha Okita took the chocolate sundae away from Gintoki Sakata without saying a word. Gintoki Sakata and Sougo Okita also noticed her action and looked at her strangely.

However, Okita Mitsuha's next move shocked Sakata Gintoki.

Okita Mitsuha picked up the bottle of super spicy chili sauce on the table and poured it all on the chocolate sundae without blinking.

"Hey, wait sis, what are you doing?"

Staring at Okita Mitsuha's actions, Sakata Gintoki reminded her with cold sweat.

"Hey! Sister! This is chili sauce!"

"Thank you for taking care of me, Mr. Xiao. As a token of my gratitude, I'll teach you a new way to eat it."

Putting down the empty chili sauce bottle in her hand, Okita Mitsuha smiled gently.

"Do you like spicy food?"

“No…it’s not a question of whether it’s spicy or not.”

With his eyes half-opened, Sakata Gintoki complained expressionlessly.

“This isn’t spicy…”

"Cough cough!"

Okita Mitsuha coughed slightly and spoke intermittently in disappointment.

"As expected... you don't like spicy food either... even though you're Mr. Xiao's friend..."

No, no, no... This, this has nothing to do with friends...

Sakata Gintoki complained subconsciously in his heart, but the reality did not allow him to think too much, because when Okita Mitsuha lowered her head and coughed lightly, the captain of the Shinsengumi's First Division had already drawn out his samurai sword, put it on his neck, and asked expressionlessly.

"You like it very much, don't you, boss?"

"a ha ha ha……"

Scratching his silver curly hair, Sakata Gintoki smiled against his will.

“What an interesting way to eat it…”

"I often have no appetite due to illness."

Her sister, Okita Mitsuha, also explained with a smile.

“That’s how I can eat.”

"Ahahaha...but I already had two chocolate sundaes."

Sakata Gintoki forced a smile and made an excuse to shirk responsibility.
