"Why?" Mogami Jun was still confused.

"The movements of the Hyoudou family are still unclear. After discussion, we decided that we shouldn't expose ourselves too early, so we shouldn't interfere now." Mogami Sayuki replied, "Since we have the drugs, we can track them. As for witnesses, we don't need them anymore, so let him do whatever he wants."

Although his mother's tone was very calm, Jun Mogami understood.

My mother and her accomplices will not directly stand up and fight against the Hyoudou family until Hyoudou Kazutsugu dies, so they don't want to expose themselves too early by saving Sakai Koichi and cause a counterattack from the Hyoudou family.

Now that they have the drugs, they will just remain silent and have not even thought about protecting the witnesses.

"So he was just thrown out the door to die, right?" asked Jun Mogami after a moment's silence.

"If he's lucky, he won't die. If he's unlucky, that's his own business. We don't owe him anything." Mogami Sayuki replied, "Since he did these things, he should take the risks for his actions, right?"

Mogami Jun was silent again.

In fact, it's not that he can't understand his mother's logic, and he doesn't have that much moral indignation, but he clearly promised in front of Koichi Sakai and Rino Honda to protect their safety in exchange for their cooperation, and then he turned around and broke his promise. It's really a bit unreasonable.

It wasn't his conscience that was hurt, but his self-esteem.

"Son, don't think too much. I never said we are messengers of justice, and neither are you." Perhaps seeing that Mogami Jun was unhappy, Mogami Sayuki tried to comfort him, "Justice is an elusive thing. Who in this world dares to say that they represent justice? The Hyoudou family has been rampant for so many years, and no one can count the number of innocent souls they have killed. If someone still says that they want to punish them on behalf of justice at this time, it would be ridiculous."

"That's what you say, but what if he gets caught by Hyoudou Takako and finally confesses everything?" Mogami Jun still didn't accept it, "Then Hyoudou Takako will still find me--"

"You don't have to worry about that. Someone will not let Hyoudou Takako see him..." Mogami Sayuki smiled slightly, "Please believe me, I will protect you no matter what."

Jun Mogami believed what his mother said, but this smile made him feel a little cold, and he suddenly thought of a scary thing.

"Will you silence him?"

"Of course not. What do you think of us?" Mogami Sayuki was a little stunned, then quickly smiled, "Haven't you ever thought that the people who are going to deal with Hyodou Takako are the ones around her... Will they let that little guy fall into Hyodou Takako's hands and expose everything? They will handle the rest themselves."

Mogami Jun thought about it and finally figured it out.

When Koichi Sakai and Yoshihiro Kurosaki made a deal, one of the conditions they put forward was to protect their own safety. Although they went through so many twists and turns, the deal was finally realized through themselves.

Then, Kurosaki Yoshihiro and the people behind him must be the same as before, still unwilling to let Hyoudou Takako find out that Sakai Mitsui had betrayed her, or at least they don't want them to meet again.

Whether it's to silence someone or to protect them, they will do it.

What will they choose this time? After all, Kurosaki Yoshihiro's trading partner has changed to himself and Sagihara Shion, and it seems that he has no obligation to guarantee Sakai Koichi's safety.

Mom’s side will definitely protect themselves, but that also means they only plan to keep themselves safe.

So after going back and forth, it seemed that the only one who ended up in danger was Koichi Sakai.

He is truly a top-notch unlucky guy.

If I hadn't interfered, then his misfortune would have been his own problem, but now the situation is different. If he was really silenced, then it seems that I have to bear at least part of the responsibility for his death.

He felt a little tight in his chest.

It would be fine if you didn’t figure it all out, but if you did, the feeling would be completely different.

So, should I pretend that I know nothing and continue to stand by and watch the situation develop like my mother; or should I make a little effort and fulfill my promise?

It seems like a simple question, but it is not that easy to decide.

There is no doubt that he wants to fulfill his promise, not only to satisfy his self-esteem and conscience, but the most important problem is that he has already made a solemn promise to Hanyu Hirofumi and others and acted confidently. If Sakai Koichi encounters misfortune in the end, the so-called "guarantee" will be of no value, and they may not listen to him anymore.

However, it is easy to act on impulse. If he only cared about his own dignity, he could threaten his mother now and ask them to fulfill their promise on his behalf and protect Sakai Mitsui's life.

If he threatens, then it seems that there is nothing mom can do.

After all, he knew these deadly secrets, and his mother couldn't possibly keep him from telling the truth, so he had no choice but to give in.

But... could he really act on impulse like this and embarrass everyone just for his own happiness? It was definitely not her who had the final say on his mother's side. If she had to change her mind because of his threat, God knew how much trouble she would encounter, and this was not the result he wanted to see.

So, we still have to think of another way.

The good news is that he has almost figured out the whole situation and has mastered most of the information. At least he can calmly think about countermeasures.

"Jun? What's wrong with you?" Seeing that Jun Mogami remained silent, Mogami Sayuki asked curiously.

"Ah... nothing, it's just... I just feel a little uncomfortable." Mogami Jun pretended to be very depressed, lowered his head and said nothing.

"Ah..." Mogami Sayuki sighed, "This can be considered a lesson for you. There are very few perfect things in the world. I know you may feel a little guilty, but as I said before, this is all his own choice. You don't need to feel guilty."

"Then I can also have my choice..." Mogami Jun did not answer, but just thought to himself.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about this anymore. From my point of view, I'm very satisfied that you've done this. Very, very satisfied." Mogami Sayuki took the initiative to change the subject. "My boss has already expressed his gratitude to you before, but I can't just say nothing. So since you took the initiative to ask for my help this time, I will do my best to help Takasaki-san."

After saying this, Mogami Sayuki picked up her phone in front of her son, looked for a number in the phone book, and then took the initiative to send an email.

Although he couldn't see the specific content, Jun Mogami could guess that this should be someone related to the TV station.

It was obvious that Sayuki Mogami saw that her son was a little confused, so she took the initiative to act so positively in order to make him happy.

She was trying to cheer herself up in such a subtle way.

Mayu said before that Mogami Jun is self-contained, but the people in the Mogami family are always so cautious when expressing their emotions, as if they have a natural fear of "losing control of themselves". He is just like his parents.

However, it is impossible not to be moved.

It is precisely because of its implicitness that it becomes more valuable.

"Okay, it looks like there's almost a chance." After working for a while, Mogami Sayuki looked up at her son with a pleased smile, "Jun, you won't miss the chance to be a hero in front of a pretty girl! Have fun."

Jun Mogami tried hard to twitch his facial muscles to make himself look like he was smiling.

"Thank you, Mom. Thank you so much."

"No, isn't this what I should do?" Mogami Sayuki laughed, using this method to dispel the haze between the two of them, and then patted her son on the shoulder, "Okay, go to bed early, and remember to dress up well the day after tomorrow..."

"Well, good night, Mom." Jun Mogami stood up, bowed to Sayuki Mogami, and then returned to his bedroom.

But after returning to the bedroom, he did not fall asleep. Instead, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number.

The call was quickly answered.

Although it was late, the voice coming from inside was as calm and cold as ever.

"It's so late, is there something urgent going on, Mogami-san?"

"Mr. Tonegawa, good evening." Mogami Jun breathed a sigh of relief. "I do have an urgent matter to ask you, but I can't delay, so I have to disturb you so late at night. I'm really sorry."

"Oh?" Tonegawa Yukio showed some surprise, "What kind of trouble are you in? Just tell me, I owe you a favor, and I will do my best to help you."

Upon hearing what Tonegawa Yukio said, Mogami Jun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I have a request for you. If you think this is too troublesome, then just write off the favor between us. Just complete this task. I remember you promised me that you would repay me before. I want to repay you with this request."

"Please speak." Yukio Tonegawa became more serious.

"No matter what, please protect the lives of Koichi Sakai and his girlfriend, and make sure that no one on either side can threaten him." Mogami Jun made his request, "That's all I ask."

There was silence on the line.

"I'm a little surprised that you'd waste favors on such a strange place, Mogami-san." After a moment's silence, Tonegawa Yukio said. "Do you think I can't give you anything better?"

"No, I just feel that I don't need to rely on favors from others, so it's okay to give it to others." Mogami Jun smiled, "It may be just a small favor to you, but it's very important to me."

"Okay." Yukio Tonegawa agreed without any hesitation.

Then he smiled again, "I never expected that I would be picked up by both parties."

"I didn't expect this either, but maybe this is the best outcome for him." Mogami Junya smiled. "Okay, it's already late, I won't bother you anymore, we'll contact each other tomorrow. By the way, please keep these things confidential for me, I don't want anyone to know."

"Okay, goodbye." Yukio Tonegawa hung up the phone.

Jun Mogami let out a long sigh and lay back down on the bed.

332, dinner party

As expected, Mogami Sayuki did not break her promise. On the evening of the agreed time, she showed up again and drove Mogami Jun to a nearby Italian restaurant.

After parking the car at the door, Mogami Sayuki got out of the car with her son and walked towards the restaurant entrance.

Compared to her usual professional suit, Mogami Sayuki's outfit today was much more ordinary - she wore a pink short-sleeved shirt on the upper body and a light yellow skirt on the lower body, and she looked like she had just come out of the kitchen.

Before leaving, Jun Mogami asked her why she dressed like this. Mogami Sayuki replied that since it was just an ordinary dinner, there was no need to be so formal so as not to put pressure on others.

But even dressed like this, Mogami Sakura still looks quite radiant. Although she doesn't have her usual aura, she has a more gentle temperament.

These are not performances but real words from my mother. How different will my life be?

Mogami Jun asked himself this question, but it was probably a question that no one could answer.

In that case, there is no need to worry about it. No matter what, since Mogami Sayuki is dressed like this, it means that she came here today to make her son happy. Maybe Mayu will not be embarrassed, and the things she entrusted to her can be easily completed.

As soon as the mother and son arrived at the door, they saw Ms. Takeuchi and Mayu - maybe they came here early and had been waiting.

So the two of them quickly quickened their pace and waved to them.

After recognizing the mother and son, Ms. Takeuchi and Mayu were delighted and went straight to greet them.

The four people who were going to have dinner together tonight gathered together.

"Mrs. Mogami, good evening." Miss Takeuchi greeted Mogami Sayuki first and bowed. "It's our first meeting, thank you for your kindness."

Although it was time to get off work, Ms. Takeuchi was still wearing her work clothes of suit and trousers as usual, looking like a professional woman. Mogami Sayuki looked her over and bowed slightly, "Ms. Takeuchi, please take care of me."

After the two of them greeted each other, Mayu also quickly greeted Mogami Sayuki.

Compared to Miss Takeuchi, she was much more respectful. She bowed deeply, with her waist bent almost to 90 degrees.

"Good evening, Jun-chan's mother."

This was the first time that Mogami Jun had seen someone so respectful.

Zhenyou's outfit tonight was very different. Usually, she either wore a school uniform or a simple style of clothing, and she must highlight her "purity and cuteness". But tonight she wore an expensive suit, a plaid top with a knee-length skirt with floral decorations, and a butterfly-shaped gem hairpin on her head, just like a fashionable girl in Ginza.

But, it is really beautiful.

Her already existing beauty, coupled with the youthful energy of a young girl, and the fashionable and elegant look after careful dressing up, were so impactful that it was hard to resist - not only was Mogami Jun stunned for a moment, but even Mogami Sayuki stared at her a few more times.

However, what Mogami Sayuki was more concerned about was the way Mayu addressed her just now.

"Jun-chan?" Mogami Sayuki was stunned for a moment, then her gaze slightly shifted to Mogami Jun next to her.

Jun Mogami was a little embarrassed, but he didn't say anything. He just stood there without saying anything.

This silly son, can't you see that they have become so close? It's really surprising.

She looked at Zhenyou carefully again.

And under her gaze, Mayu calmly raised her body, and then looked at Mogami Sayuki with her most familiar sweet smile.

Of course, although her expression appeared calm and composed on the surface, there was a hint of nervousness in her eyes that could not be concealed.

"Good evening, Makoto." Mogami Sayuki smiled slightly and nodded at her, "You are even cuter than you look in the photos. No wonder you can become an idol."

"You're really too kind." Mayu lowered her eyes shyly, "I'm just an insignificant member of this industry... so I still have to rely on you and Jun-chan's care."

Then, she bowed deeply again. "I'm sorry, I didn't realize until recently that you had spoken well of me when I was in trouble before. I'm really ashamed that I didn't thank you until now... I hope you can forgive me."

Mogami Jun felt a little uncomfortable with Mayu's skillful and appropriate response. She was now like a completely different person from the Mayu who usually joked and played with her and even looked a little funny.

However, if you think about it carefully, Zhenyou is quite scheming, which is why he can survive in such a competitive industry. He just took off his usual disguise in front of me.

"Ah, I just said a few words. Why do you need to thank me so solemnly?" Mogami Sayuki smiled and shook her head. "You can get through the difficulties because of your own ability. I don't have much credit for it."

Then, she changed the subject again, "Okay, let's go in? I think everyone must be hungry."

So, with Sayuki Mogami, the four of them walked into the restaurant together.

Led by the waiter, they came to their reserved seats - a booth by the window on the second floor.

Just as they were sitting down, Mayu suddenly suggested with a smile, "Mrs. Mogami, can Jun-chan and I sit next to each other? After all, we are classmates, and we have more topics to talk about, and it will be more convenient for you to talk about things this way."

This sudden attack made Mogami Jun feel a little embarrassed, but he didn't want to embarrass Shinyu in public, so he could only frown and look at Shinyu, but Shinyu just smiled, pretending he didn't see anything, leaving Mogami Jun helpless for a moment.

Mogami Sayuki looked at Mayu, then at her son, then smiled slightly and nodded.

"Well, if you think it's okay, then let's do it. I have no objection."

So it was decided.

Mogami Jun and Mayu sat together. Although it was a little awkward, he didn't care seeing that Mayu was so happy.

From their seats, they could see the traffic and brilliant lights downstairs. There was also classical light music playing in the restaurant and a faint fragrance in the air, which really increased people's appetite.

As the protagonist of this dinner, Mogami Sayuki did not hesitate to pick up the menu and ordered the dishes. The waiter wrote down the dishes and turned away. The place suddenly became quiet again.
