"Ouch!" Tokugawa Sen held his swollen head and glared angrily at Tatara, who laughed out loud. Tatara quickly covered his mouth, but the way his shoulders twitched was adorable.
How funny. The two of them said the exact same thing, but his unreliable father was beaten up by the person who said the same thing first. Aiya, the wound on his stomach is hurting again from laughing! Hahaha ~
"What are you laughing at! Did I say anything wrong?! " Tokugawa Sen was indignant and wanted to retort, but when he turned to face Reiko, who was glaring at him coldly, he was subconsciously afraid. He paused for a moment, then pretended to be tough and said loudly to his son, "Even if she's not a human trafficker, our house is so small, where would we find a place for her to sleep? Brat, what are you thinking?! "
"I thought you wouldn't come back …"
"What?! You thought? " Tokugawa Sen raised his eyebrows high. "That's my house. I can come back whenever I want! No, even if I don't go back, you shouldn't bring anyone back!! Anyway … "
The smile on Tatara's face gradually collapsed. His slightly watery cheeks turned pale again. His long eyelashes fluttered as he looked at him and called softly, "Dad …"
Tokugawa Sen was slightly stunned. He looked up and met Tatara's teary and pleading amber eyes. The words of rejection were stuck in his throat.
"I …" Feeling that something uncontrollable was about to come out of his mouth, Tokugawa Sen quickly covered his mouth.
Tatara saw that he didn't fall for his trick and curled his lips imperceptibly.
Tokugawa Sen took in his expression and was instantly angry. Heh, so angry! It was always like this! Whenever he wanted to be willful, he would look at him like that. Every time, he would be fooled, as if he was possessed. No, he wouldn't give in to this little bastard!
Reiko saw that the father and son were frozen there. She wanted to say that she could find a new hotel. Anyway, she already knew who the target was, so she wasn't in a hurry. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Tatara's amber eyes suddenly start to tear up. She froze in shock … Was, was it that serious?
Tatara said in a choked voice, "But my sister saved me. She even paid for my medical expenses, but I have nothing to repay her. I'm so sad …"
Tokugawa Sen was stunned........ he had seen Tatara's smiling face, but he had never seen him cry. one could imagine how powerful it was..... he was at a loss. "no, why are you crying? why are you crying?... Ahhhhhh, so annoying. One night, right? Fine, fine, do whatever you want!! "
While Tokugawa Sen was covering his face with his hands, Tatara turned his head and secretly winked at Reiko. His bright crescent-shaped eyes didn't show any signs of sadness.
Reiko's mouth twitched. This child was indeed different from the naive Five Tigers Retreat, but … he was also quite cute.
But what she didn't expect was that this man … Reiko looked at Tokugawa Sen, who was still a huge monster even when he was squatting on the ground … How could there be such a stupid man?
As for Shi Shu Sen, who was completely unaware that he had become a "stupid man", he had already reacted in hindsight. As soon as he put down his hand, he saw that his son had become a smiling face again. Instantly, he was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his mouth. He fiercely grabbed Duo Liang's armpits and carried him up. The moment he opened his mouth, he scolded, "Great, you cheated again!! You little liar!! "
Tatara, who was being lifted up high, wasn't afraid. He chuckled at him. "Because Daddy has somewhere to go!"
"So, you're just trying to chase me away, right?! Hmph! " Tokugawa Sen snorted and pulled him into his arms. He reached out and pinched his thin cheeks. "I'm your father! Little bastard! "
Reiko, who couldn't get a word in edgewise, was speechless.
After rubbing his son's hair into a bird's nest, Tokugawa Sen turned to look at the culprit. He sized up Reiko seriously. Seeing that she looked like an ordinary high school girl, he completely ignored the fact that he was frightened by her aura. He said impatiently, "Let's go … Nowadays, students don't study hard and run away from home! I'm telling you, I only agreed to it because of this little brat. Leave my house early tomorrow morning! "
Reiko was speechless and twitched her mouth. What did he mean by students running away from home? How imaginative! If he was so capable, why didn't he become a screenwriter?!
Tatara struggled out of Tokugawa Sen's arms and ran to Reiko. He smiled and held her hand. "Sister, let's go!"
Reiko paused as she looked at the young man who was smiling like an angel. She smiled and held his slender hand. "Mm, let's go."
Tatara smiled happily. He held Reiko's hand and walked in the direction of the apartment. He turned back and waved at Tokugawa Sen, who was standing behind them in a daze. "Then we'll go home first! Bye bye! "
"Bye … my ass! You little bastard who kicks me to the curb after I've outlived my usefulness. I'm so angry! " When Tokugawa Sen, who had been left behind, came back to his senses, the two of them had already walked far away. He was so angry that he was like a volcano that was about to erupt. He ruffled his blonde hair into a bird's nest, stomped his feet, and chased after them.
A few minutes later, in the apartment.
As soon as they entered the apartment, Reiko understood what Tatara meant when he said that even a thief wouldn't visit their house.
The small apartment was about 20 square meters. Other than a bathroom, there wasn't even a kitchen. There was a folded bedding in the corner of the living room. It was obviously for sleeping on the floor at night. Other than a black and white television that looked like it was from the last century and a few worn-out cabinets, there weren't any other electrical appliances in the apartment. It was really simple.
"So Dad, why did you follow us back?" Tatara tilted his head and asked Tokugawa Sen, who had followed them in. "It's so late. If you don't find a place to stay, you'll have to sleep on the streets!"
(ノ = Д =) ノ ()
This was definitely not his son!!
"Can't I come back to change my clothes?!" Tokugawa Sen glared at him angrily. He looked like a blow-up pufferfish.
"Pfft ~" This time, it was Reiko who burst out laughing. This man was too funny. He could even eat up a child. What a waste of his height … Well, that wasn't right either.
"What are you laughing at!" Tokugawa Sen walked angrily to the wardrobe in the corner. He picked up a random shirt and walked into the bathroom. He slammed the door shut to vent his anger.
Tatara sighed helplessly like a little adult. He said to Reiko in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Sister Reiko. My dad made a fool of himself in front of you."
"Well … It's not that. I just felt … a little surprised." She didn't expect her target to have a child, and that their relationship was so good.
Tatara smiled and pulled her to sit on the cushion at the side. "Sister Reiko, my house is a little small. Sorry to trouble you tonight."
"What …"
Before she could finish, Tokugawa Sen, who had just changed his clothes and walked out of the bathroom, immediately exploded. He glared at the adult and the child in dissatisfaction. "Hey, how is my house troubling her? If you don't like it, you can leave and find a place to stay! I'm too lazy to go out! "
"Dad!" Tatara finally raised his voice and looked at him disapprovingly.
"Tsk!" Tokugawa Sen pursed his lips in dissatisfaction. He pulled on the wound at the corner of his mouth and grimaced in pain. He left the two of them and ran to the bathroom to apply medicine in front of the mirror.
Seeing that his father had finally calmed down, Tatara began to apologize again. "I'm sorry, Sister Reiko. My dad's personality isn't good, but he's definitely not a bad person."
Reiko smiled and said, "I know. That's why I won't argue with him for your sake."
Tatara was stunned for a moment, then smiled brightly. "Sister Reiko is so gentle! Oh yeah, I'll get you some water! "
Without waiting for her to stop him, he got up and ran to the other corner where the kettle was kept. Reiko looked at his delicate back and the smile on her face slowly faded. She turned to look in the direction of the bathroom. Tokugawa Sen didn't close the door this time, so Reiko could clearly see his appearance through the half-length mirror.
She had been wondering what Fox's Assistance meant when he said that she could immediately determine the identity of the target when she saw him. But when she saw Tokugawa Sen, she immediately understood what Fox's Assistance meant.
Under the dim yellow light, it wasn't difficult to see Tokugawa Sen's rough and weathered face under the purple bruises in the mirror. However, Reiko could see an extremely delicate and young man's face through that layer of skin.
Because the flow of time in the two worlds was different, she couldn't tell if this person had attached himself to "Tokugawa Sen" and raised his child, or if he had become "Tokugawa Sen" and organized a family to have Tatara.
Although he and Tatara quarreled and seemed to have a bad temper, at least she didn't see any disgust or resistance in Tatara's eyes. She could even see that Tatara liked this unreliable father very much. If she took him away, how would Tatara survive on his own at such a young age? But the mission had to be completed … There were still so many problems. It seemed that she had to contact Mr. Wu. Strange, when she thought about how she had to contact Mr. Wu from the beginning, why did she feel like she had lost?
"Hey! Hey! "
An impatient shout pulled Reiko back from her thoughts. She looked up and met Tokugawa Sen's slightly deep eyes.
"Why are you in a daze? You, come out for a moment. "
After saying that, Tokugawa Sen walked out, lighting a cigarette as he walked. When he saw Tatara blocking the door with a smile, he gloomily patted his head. "Is it necessary? I'll leave after saying a few words to her. I won't chase you away. "
He had always been a man of his words. Hearing this, Tatara grinned and stood to the side. However, when he looked at Reiko, he secretly winked. Reiko was stunned for a moment, then realized that he wanted her to keep his injury a secret. So she winked back at him as a sign of agreement.
After she walked out, Tokugawa Sen closed the metal door and casually leaned against it. The cheap cigarette at the corner of his mouth flickered. Amidst the lingering smoke, his eyes, hidden in the darkness, shot a sharp glance at the smiling girl in front of him.
