When it comes to watching Chrome's videos, besides the people in the Katekyo Hitman Academy World, the ones who likely feel it most deeply are Ozaki Kureyo and Vermouth.
Ozaki Kureyo pulled Kyoko close, cradling her affectionately in her arms.
Like a moth to a flame, seeking life through death, wasn't she once like that too?
But her salvation had already been buried on that night; now, the only thing that had emerged was a single, lonely, wandering soul.
Although their experiences were different, she could smell the same scent from Chrome, she sincerely congratulated this girl who had blossomed in the darkness, hoping that the place she found to call home would always treat her well.
Similarly, Vermouth's eyes held a sense of trance. Once upon a time, she was an innocent girl who yearned for redemption and a family; she obtained beauty, power, wealth, but none of those were what she truly desired.
The Vermouth she cared about cast a casual glance at the girls gathered together talking, a gentle smile playing on her lips.
Her angel has actually been found as well.
It was Chrome now; she gripped the photograph in her hands and closed her eyes.
It was so warm and so happy; for the sake of a beautiful future, she would persevere.
"Kufufufu, your name is Chrome, isn't it?" An eerie laugh interrupted her thoughts. Chrome looked up, her eyes still wet with tears.
"You are.. Mr. Rokudo Mukuro," Chrome said hesitantly.
Yes, there is no need to be afraid. Let me tell you the secrets of the body..
This break was extended to one hour; although they didn't feel hungry, the World Consciousness had still left everyone time to eat and sleep.
People in the space gathered in small groups, finding familiar faces to talk to.
Hibari Kyoya scanned the people present, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
There were many opponents in there worth his effort, he was very pleased. However, seeing so many people gathered together made him feel somewhat displeased.
As these two emotions intertwined, his expression became exceptionally grim, making even Kusakabe afraid to approach him.
This is bad, Mr. Kyoya's patience is reaching its limit.
The World Consciousness timely saved Kusakabe's wounded little heart.
Next, I would like to introduce the Vongola Sky Guardian, Hibari Kyoya.
Unbound by anything, walking his own path through the clouds, roaming outside the family, protecting the family in his own way.
A mature man wearing a purple suit appeared on the screen; he was tall, classic, sharp, possessing an extremely aggressive aura.
The reason why suits are often made in black and white is because they suit the general public; it is difficult for ordinary people to wear other colors in a suit, as it would be a disaster.
But purple seemed to be born for this man; the slim-fitting suit didn't make him look any more eerie, but instead combined with his violent beauty to form an imposing aura that others dared not offend.
Kusakabe let out a silent "wow." Tsunayoshi, you're really something; you actually dared to take Mr. Kyoya as one of your subordinates.
Could it be that your cowardice is all just a disguise? If the people of Namimori saw this, who would dare bully you? You're actually the toughest man in Namimori.
These were Kusakabe's true thoughts, as he frequently saw Sawada Tsunayoshi being extorted by thugs and bullied by his classmates.
Hibari Kyoya, who already lacked patience, simply raised an eyebrow and let out a "wow," a half-smile playing on his lips, his face filled with a combat intent that suggested he was about to attack at any moment.
Standing far away, knowing he couldn't see, he didn't stop Sawada Tsunayoshi from instinctively shrinking his neck. Good grief, he didn't even dare to look; he really couldn't imagine the scene of Senior Hibari becoming his subordinate.
Good heavens, even now he still can't believe Senior Hibari is actually in the Mafia. Although he still manages Namimori, even when he was in Sicily, he would have meetings with Kusakabe in Namimori to discuss Namimori's future.
It seemed like Senior Hibari was going to start a company, so Sawada Tsunayoshi decided to contribute all the pocket money he had saved up for a long time to support him. If Senior Hibari failed in business.. no, no, that's impossible, he definitely wouldn't fail.
That's Hibari Kyoya we're talking about, the incredibly amazing Senior Hibari, the omnipotent King of Namimori!
Anyway, Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't imagine him failing.
The luxurious ballroom was filled with the scents of various wines and spices, as men and women dressed in magnificent attire moved through the vast venue, their faces beaming with smiles, exuding pure luxury.
Elegant notes danced joyfully through the air, dancing through the slender fingertips of ladies, gliding past fragrant wines, flying out from the ties of gentlemen to reach the bustling world of fame and fortune outside.
It is different here than it is inside; the music flowing through the cracks of the door has nothing to do with the staff working outside.
The person guarding outside cast envious glances at the people inside from time to time. "They're so rich. I'd have to spend several years' worth of earnings just to afford one of their casual outfits, even then, I'd have to live without eating or drinking."
The person facing him was already a seasoned doorman, who smiled upon hearing this. "Already feeling envious? You only see their clothes, but you don't see the ladies' jewelry or the gentlemen's watches—those are the things that truly represent their status."
The young man looked inside upon hearing this, indeed, he saw magnificent jewelry he had never seen before, sparkling and brilliant. The watches were low-key yet luxurious, but from the shimmer on their surfaces, they were incredibly opulent.
That's amazing, I wonder when I'll be able to live a life like that.
Hahaha, young man, dreaming is the quickest way. For ordinary people like us, we only need to live a lifetime without worrying about food or drink and without getting sick. Don't yearn for a life that doesn't belong to you; instead, it will only cause you unnecessary pressure.
The young man sighed helplessly.
However, he noticed that the big shots inside would occasionally cast their gazes outside, as if they were expecting something.
His speech also became more cautious: "Will some extraordinary person be arriving today? The atmosphere inside seems off."
Moreover, there seemed to be too many young ladies.
He had worked here for a relatively short time and had experienced several banquets, but today was particularly different; the ladies' clothing was even more exquisite, he couldn't quite say why, but they just felt more captivating.
"Even Suzuki has come." And she was dressed very formally. According to public rumor, this young lady was very casual and approachable, prioritizing comfort over elegance at every banquet, using the simplest clothes to carry the prestige of a noble family; this time, however, her attire was elaborate.
You don't know?
"What should I know?" the young man asked, dazed.
A big shot is indeed coming later. You know of the Discipline Group, right?
The young man's eyes lit up. "I know, I know! It's the group created by Mr. Hibari, who is practically a legend, right? He started from nothing in his teens, ten years later, the scale of his conglomerate is among the best in the world, having survived countless gunfights and various assassination attempts. By the time he achieved success and looked back on his life, he was only in his twenties. He is my role model!"
It's just that Mr. Hibari is very low-profile and rarely appears in public; his capable assistant, Mr. Kusakabe, is basically the one who releases all kinds of news. I heard that Mr. Kusakabe has been with Mr. Hibari since before he started his business, he is the person he trusts most.
And another thing, Mr. Hibari is the number one man people most want to marry, but he is very disciplined and only cares about his career; he isn't really into romance and is still single.
The young man grew fierce and passionate when talking about this, losing himself in the subject. If it weren't for the fact that the public didn't know the color of Hibari Kyoya's underwear, he would probably be able to talk incessantly for three days and three nights.
The partner chuckled, "I can tell you're a fan of his."
The young man couldn't help but wonder, "Speaking of which, could it be.."
The partner uncle nodded with a smile, "That's right."
The young man's neck seemed to be being strangled, he let out a short scream before quickly covering his mouth.
Oh my god, I never thought I'd see Mr. Hibari in my lifetime!
He was very happy, but he was immediately called away. Something needed for the banquet couldn't be found, a waiter notified him to go check the warehouse. The young man went without a second thought.
As he stepped into the warehouse, the heavy thud of the door being slammed shut echoed behind him. He broke into a cold sweat, realizing he had been lured into a trap.
Several people wearing waiter uniforms walked out from the warehouse, surrounding the young man with ill intent.
So you're the brat who snatched Brother Yong's position. Do you even know our rules? The position of gatekeeper isn't something just any random stray can take.
You're looking for death, you idiot! Haha, we'll see how you plan to escape once you're here.
When the Manager goes back on patrol and doesn't see you, I want to see what you'll say then. Haha, don't end up failing to make any money and getting docked instead.
The young man clenched his fists, his eyes filled with indignation.
It's clearly because your Brother Yong was caught slacking off on the job that the Manager sent me here. You blame others just because you can't do it yourself. Heh, absolutely pathetic.
Brother Yong, sitting in the middle of the opposite side, gave a cold sneer. "You're only able to use your silver tongue at times like this. I'll see if you can still be so talkative when the Manager finds you're not at your post and kicks you out."
Brother Yong put on a show of checking his watch and said affectedly, "Alright, I should go and have a good word with the Manager about how someone has been shirking their duties and being lazy."
The young man wanted to rush forward to demand an explanation, but he was held down by the shoulders by Brother Yong's two subordinates. He could only watch helplessly as Brother Yong walked away, even sticking his middle finger out at him before leaving.
At high-end hotels like this that host banquets, the people stationed at the entrance receive large tips, sometimes they can even catch the eye of a VIP and rise to sudden success, which is why this position is constantly coveted by everyone.
Brother Yong was originally able to go this time, but he made a small mistake last week and was taken advantage of by some youngsters. He thought things would end there, but he never expected to be schemed against in the end.
He struggled desperately, but he could not escape their grasp no matter what.
Just as he was in despair, he heard a voice as heavenly as music.
Excuse me, have you seen my earrings?
The soft voice was like an angel's whisper. At some unknown moment, a tall lady had appeared at the doorway. Her long brown hair cascaded down her back, adorned with purple crystals, her simple, form-fitting dress hung naturally. What was most unforgettable were her eyes, as gentle as honey.
At this moment, the unfamiliar young lady stood at the doorway, her sweet gaze falling upon him.
Chapter 28: 28-Day Livestream
Sawada Tsunayoshi..
A clever person with keen insight:
Sawada Tsunayoshi..
Sawada Tsunayoshi: Aaaaaaaaaah!
A silent scream; he was so shocked to the extreme that he became mute and could not make any sound, able only to clutch his head and stand frozen in place with his mouth agape.
I'm going to die, I'm going to die! Virgin Mary Big Bang! I am a paramecium, Reborn, two and a half meters tall, oh no, I saw a fish hanging itself from a rope, dinosaur嘤嘤嘤!
Haha, the world truly is full of wonders. He saw someone today who looked just like his future self from ten years later; isn't he just his own non-biological doppelgänger?
Mhm, how lucky. Otherwise, let's become sworn brothers, let Mom and Dad check if they're a lost child from their family.
Mm-hmm, this must be my father's sister who was lost out in the world.
.. My ass! My Hyper Intuition is going off in my head like a non-stop alarm clock. This is exactly like my gender-swapped self—no, wait, it's just me cross-dressing!
Sawada Tsunayoshi's head, overwhelmed by overthinking, exploded.
In a space where no one could see, the little Sawada Tsunayoshi's face was so red he could fry an egg on it, white steam rose from the top of his head like a hot spring, his eyes were swirling like he had a plate of mosquito coils hidden in them.
This little Sawada Tsunayoshi is already ripe.
Mama-chan, I've become a pervert.
So this is what happens to the Port Mafia, becoming perverted in silence.
