TSSITWON Chapter 95: The Mystery of the Namikaze Name 4
🕑 Added 2024-11-13 12:54:55 +0000 UTCAoki seemed hesitant for a moment, then said a bit shyly, “Well… about that… I saw the man wearing a ninja headband.”
Kurisu tilted her head, her smile transforming into a teasing grin that had been honed over the years, a smile she often used in her work at the Brothel. “A ninja, huh? Where did that ninja come from, I wonder?” Kurisu asked in a subtly teasing tone, as if trying to draw more information from Aoki.
Aoki stammered, his cheeks flushed, feeling somewhat embarrassed but still trying to hold Kurisu's gaze. “I… I don’t know, Sister Kurisu! Really, I only saw the man for a moment,” Aoki replied, looking down, his eyes shifting to the ground as he searched for answers in his own mind.
Kurisu's smile hinted at deeper feelings. ‘This kid… this is the problem when dealing with a naive boy like Aoki. They are easily manipulated, just like I experienced in the past. But for now… maybe I should help Aoki; after all, I’m curious too.’ That thought flashed quickly, and the sharp look on Kurisu's face faded, replaced by a softness that was almost maternal.
Kurisu looked at Aoki with tenderness and said, “I don’t know if that man is from my family, but that’s not important right now. What’s more important is that you need to focus on finding your mother, right?”
Aoki nodded slowly, his eyes downcast, as he said hesitantly, “Yes… yes, Sister Kurisu.”
In Aoki's mind, he smiled slightly. ‘I’m getting better at deceiving, aren’t I? Maybe I really do have a talent for trickery. Not bad, hehe.’
Kurisu smiled faintly and took Aoki's hand. “Then let’s go inside,” she said gently, leading Aoki into the Brothel, which was filled with a glamorous atmosphere and the glow of dim lights.
As they stepped inside, Aoki was taken aback by the enticing sight of the beautiful women working there. Some approached Kurisu and Aoki with friendly smiles, while others looked on with curiosity.
“Madam, who is this little boy? Your child, perhaps?” asked one woman wearing revealing clothing, her expression full of interest.
Kurisu shook her head while waving her hand, as if dismissing them with authority. “No. This child is an important guest. You all get back to work!” Kurisu commanded in a calm yet firm tone, causing the women to immediately return to attending to the waiting guests.
Aoki looked around with mixed feelings. The male guests there gazed at Kurisu with looks of keen interest, and some of the women stared at Aoki like hungry wolves, their gazes sharp and unabashed.
Aoki swallowed, a sense of discomfort slowly creeping in. ‘So, this woman is the boss here… Why has fate brought me here? If she asks about my mother later, what should I say? Damn, I thought I was lucky to meet this woman, but the situation just keeps getting worse. I need to find a way to sneak out quickly, take Ito Samiko away, and eliminate Ito before this gets any more chaotic,’ Aoki thought, feeling genuinely nervous, with cold sweat starting to trickle down his back.
However, for the sake of a larger plan and goal, Aoki tried to remain calm and focused, waiting for the right moment to act.
Aoki tried to keep a calm expression, but in his head, his thoughts were in turmoil. ‘Oh my… I know this woman is incredibly beautiful, but the looks from those men down there are truly disgusting! The Brothel is indeed a place for men like that. Wait! Didn’t I come here too? So… am I also a disgusting man? Damn, life is full of irony.’
