Seeing that Suzuna hesitated to speak, Tsunakichi, who intuitively understood that what she just said could not comfort Suzuna, quickly changed the subject.

"--Does Suzuna-senpai know?"

"what?"

"Qana-chan's name is not ナナ in katakana, but 'Qina' in Chinese characters."

"Chinese characters..."

"Hmm! The number seven! 'Nye' is..."

Halfway through the conversation, Tsuna realized that his knowledge was so poor that he didn't know how to describe the word "Nai".

(It's over...it's all because I keep dozing off in Chinese class——)

Thinking of his usual bad conduct, Tsuna was sweating instantly.However, a snow-white palm spread out in front of Tsunaki's eyes.

"Gun-jun, write it down again."

"Ah, oh, um..."

After pronouncing three different syllables in a row, Tsuna Kichi stretched out his hand towards Suzuna's palm hesitantly.

(If you don't write it...will Suzuna-senpai think it's a weird person? But, but this is to touch Suzuna-senpai's hand...)

Struggling in his heart, his expression became ferocious.The tension made Tsuna's heart pound heavily like a beating drum.I don't know if it was because of thinking too much, but Gang Ji's mind suddenly went blank.

"Mr. Gang?"

Suzuna's urging voice broke the last tight string in Tsunayoshi's nerves.Holding up Suzuna's hand without hesitation, Tsunakichi used his fingers to write the word "Nai" on Suzuna's palm with a little force.

Suzuna was startled by Tsunakichi's expression as if he was about to kill someone.She looked at Tsunayoshi who wrote Chinese characters stroke by stroke in her palm for no reason.

"Ah...it's 'Na' from 'Nara', and it's also the 'Na' in my name."

Suzuna nodded quickly.

(That's right...! I didn't think of it...! No, that's right... This is indeed the "Na" of "Nara", and it is also the "Na" in Suzuna-senpai's name...)

And before Tsuna withdrew his hand, he had no time to be shy, and was hit again by his lack of language and knowledge-Gunji still didn't understand the truth of "concern leads to chaos".

"Qana...? This name really suits Nana-chan~ I always think it's cute~"

Suzuna smiled and started walking again.Guided by Suzuna, Tsunayoshi and Suzuna walked towards the living room together.For a while, the two of them didn't chew out any deeper meaning from Qinai's name.

Hearing Suzuna's praise of Nana's name, Tsunakichi subconsciously blurted out: "Qana-chan said that Senior Suzuna gave her this name!"

"Did I... take it?"

Suzuna's footsteps paused, but it was only a pause of less than half a second.Tsunayoshi didn't notice the change in Suzuna's expression.

What is a "family"?

What is "marriage"?

What are "parents"?

Suzuna's parents are not good role models.Although there was a reason for the incident, they did not do much to make Suzuna understand "family", "marriage" and "parents".

Now Suzuna, who doesn't even fully understand "communication" and is ignorant of "love", has to understand "family", "marriage" and "parents".

However, the appearance of Yuli, Elizabeth, Nana and others made Suzuna have to face these problems that were too difficult for her.And she herself doesn't enjoy the quagmire-like tangled daily life brought about by this complicated interpersonal relationship.

(It might as well be like when I first moved to Namori-)

At that time, Suzuna was not welcomed by the Prison Temple, and she was exhausted and paralyzed into a dog every day because of the special training of Ribaun or Colonello, and she might face Hibari, Mukuro, and Squalo at any time. Such a terrible opponent lost his life.

But at that time, Suzuna always lived a fulfilling and happy life.She can feel her own growth, and she can see herself accomplishing things that she couldn't accomplish in the past.She began to have more friends and kept meeting more companions.At the same time, she also began to have longing for others.

She yearns for the strength that can protect others, she dreams for the firmness that can be unyielding physically and mentally, she dreams for the calmness that can accept everything...she dreams for all the things that she lacks or does not have.

Suzuna thought this was all of her life.

Suzuna once naively thought that as long as she worked hard to look forward and run forward to chase, she would one day get these longing things.

But Suzuna hadn't even touched the thing she longed for, a huge change had taken place around her.

Li Baoen no longer conducts hell-style special training for Suzuna, Prison Temple no longer hates Suzuna, Mukuro no longer regards Suzuna's life as worthless, Squalo no longer wants Suzuna's life, Tsuna Yoshi and Suzuna will no longer be awkward and speechless, and there will be no more secrets between Mayumi and Suzuna...but why?Suzuna just couldn't be bluntly pleased with all the changes.

(……I do not understand.)

Suzuna was perplexed by the change in the attitudes of the people around her.The overly happy situation made Suzuna uneasy.Mingming Yuri and others brought a future where they and Tsunayoshi and others intersected, but Suzuna was afraid of the seemingly unreachable future and...had an irrepressible disgust for her future self.

Suzuna couldn't tell what the source of this disgust was.In short, in her heart, ten years later, the future in which the young Yuji Temple and the young Yamamoto and others don't know her is much better than the future in which she marries her companion Tsunakichi and has children with Yuji Temple and Yamamoto.

In order not to spoil the joy of everyone who came to Hojo's house specially for her, and to prevent the happy atmosphere created by everyone's kindness in vain, Suzuna suppressed her feelings deep in her heart; she sent everyone away with a smile.After cleaning up Hojo's house with Yuri and others, he and Gloria finally came to Balian's castle, which was put under the ground of Namorimachi.

——Gloria is the third person who obtained Suzuna's exclusive rights.

"Mother, is it really okay?"

Everyone in Suzuna was already standing at the door of the room, Gloria still confirmed to Suzuna again.

"Ah."

Recently, Suzuna, who has been so good-tempered that she almost has no temper, nodded, not daring to meet Gloria's eyes.

Yes, she was very nervous, not only nervous about coming to Balian's castle, but also about facing the person waiting for her in the room.

"Mother, you don't have to force yourself."

Gloria put a hand on Suzuna's shoulder, and his eyes were filled with sincere concern.

(Still saying this to this day...)

(Didn't you send me here?)

Due to nervousness, Suzuna's good temper also became restless.She couldn't express what was in her heart, so she pretended to lower her eyes coldly and said: "It's okay." By the way, she turned the doorknob of the room and opened the door.

"う"お",う"お"ぉぉぉぉぉぉぉい!!Happy, welcome—…"

In the room, the body of the ten-year-old Squalo who was speaking unfamiliar words was stiff in a strange posture.He looks like a ridiculous statue.

"Mr. Squalo..."

Seeing that there was only Squalo ten years later in the room, Suzuna calmed down a little.

——Gloria's request to Suzuna can be said to be easy, but it is also quite difficult to say embarrassing.Because Gloria's request is the word "Chuan" for wanting to sleep with her parents overnight.

Sleeping is not difficult in itself, but what Gloria asked was to sleep with the word "Chuan" with "parents". "Father" refers to Squalo, and "mother" refers to Suzuna, so Gloria's request becomes that Suzuna needs to be in the same room with Squalo, and must lie on the bed together. Bed together until dawn.

Ten years later, when Squalo heard Gloria tell him that he asked Suzuna to sleep together with the word "Chuan" and Suzuna agreed, Squalo ten years later was almost useless and frightened The roar knocked off the roof.Squalo, who was in his early twenties, refused the opportunity to share the bed with Suzuna by saying "I will not participate in your nonsense".Ten years later, Squalo wanted to refuse instinctively, but was blocked by Gloria: "Can't my only long-cherished wish be fulfilled...?"

Ten years later, Squalo heard Gloria talk about his childhood and boyhood, and also learned about the end of himself and Suzuna from Gloria.Thinking of Gloria's painful loss of his parents, ten years later, Squalo could not and did not want to find any excuse to bargain with Gloria.

It was impossible for Suzuna to sleep in her own room with two big men, Squalo and Gloria.So Suzuna left a note at the entrance of Hojo's house, saying that she would stay at a friend's house for one night.After that, Suzuna followed Gloria to Balian's castle.Of course, there is only one destination, and that is Squalo's room.

"excuse me……"

Surprised by the cleanliness and orderliness of Squalo's room, Suzuna, who found that the cleanliness and orderliness did not seem like a product of cramming, stepped into Squalo's room.

Squalo's room was huge.This is not surprising, after all, Squalo is the second highest Balian commander after Xanxus. During the eight years when Xanxus slept in the ice, Squalo was the only supreme authority in Balian, and it was normal for his room to be large and luxurious.

What shocked Suzuna was that this big room had nothing to do with "luxury".Compared with the rooms of Xanxus and Belphegor, Mamon and others that Fran used hallucinations to let Suzuna see, Squalo's room is quite simple.

The plain and uniform □□ can be used as both curtains and carpets.Whether it is a wardrobe or a low cabinet, it is the simplest style.It is [-]% because the space for sweating and practicing swordsmanship is especially large, and there is no decoration in this space, and it is all made of gray cement from the floor to the ceiling.
