Chapter 52: Yayoi in Memories

  No matter who your fiancé is, I will never let you go to him!

  Xiao Cha, don't worry, I'll always be by your side!

  In the future at school, we can finally eat together, attend classes together and sleep together...

  As long as Xiao Cha is always by my side, that's all I need. As long as Xiao Cha is always by my side, I can live happily ever after!

  Xiao Cha ＞＿＜！You are my savior, you are my benefactor, you are my god! I really don't know what to do without you!!!! Xiao Cha...... I will never let you go to anyone else! Absolutely not!!!!!!!!!!

  Because Xiao Cha said she likes people who are very beautiful and popular with others... so I went to become a star.

  Because T_T Little Tea dislikes me, I'm very sad and that's why I came to this place. I know I'm stupid, always causing you trouble, always needing you to protect me by my side... But... but I really like Little Tea, so I don't want Little Tea to dislike me T_T!

  Suddenly, my mind is filled with all the things Yayoi used to say. When he cried, when he was sad, when they fought, when he was being stubborn, when he was in pain... All of those memories are in my head. Maybe it was just a sense of responsibility before... but now... it feels like I'm really protecting him with everything I have. Just like protecting one's own family, keeping everything safe and close by.

  Ugh, don't think about that, I need to focus on how to find Dad now. Based on the clues I have (Author: what kind of clue is that?), I can conclude that: Dad was once a member of a fallen noble family who could control people's behavior and even thoughts with his words. Hmm... those are in the past, after Dad disappeared, he might have taken a bunch of cash and fled abroad to enjoy life (Author: it seems like he didn't have much cash at that time), or maybe he secretly hid in a deep mountain forest near our home (Author: do you think there are so many deep mountains and forests for your old man to live in? You need to pay the mountain maintenance fees, okay?!). In short, if he's still alive, he's either abroad or domestic.

  If I want to find him, shouldn't I start with the people from the seven major families? They should have my father's information. However, since they've been searching for so long and still can't find anything... getting their information would be useless too. Moreover, among the people in the seven major families now, which ones can I trust, I'm not sure yet. According to Min Ye's words, his family shouldn't be hostile towards me, even if we find my father, they won't harm him. And that night when they ambushed Yasser, the people from that family... seem to be enemies. In this case, perhaps Yasser's family won't be hostile towards my father? Ah, who knows, it's hard to predict what will happen in life.

  And now, this Katsuragi... should I trust him? He's the heir of the Katsuragi family, one of the seven families. If he was sent by his family, it's highly likely that he's here to harm Father. Looking at it this way, there aren't many people I can trust... and I don't want to drag other outsiders into this, whether it's Mito or anyone else... especially Mito, who can't keep a secret to save his life. If he finds out, it's like the whole world will know. Who knows, he might even grab a microphone and shout to the whole world: "Where is Chacha's father? Where is Chacha's father?"

  What should I do... Where should I start now...

  My body gradually cooled down, I looked up at the bright moon in the sky and suddenly realized that it was already very late, I should probably head back to my dormitory.

  "Next month maple," I called out his name in a low voice: "You go back first, if there's a need, I'll come find you."
