stand-in creed

At this moment, Trixie just sat there without saying a word, calmly looking at the night scene outside the window, both Apache and Nero could see the confusion in the girl.

After Nero and Suzumi Suzumi who floated out looked at each other, they couldn't help but speak.

"Terry Hugh."

"...Huh?" Trish turned around.

Nero asked seriously: "Do you have any relatives? Not relatives like Vernon, Petunia, and Dudley, but relatives who can really take care of you."

Trixie shook his head in a low voice: "No."

Nero can be regarded as a thorough understanding of the girl's current confusion.

Mother died of illness.

The father who had hoped for her was just a scumbag who wanted to kill her, and now he has died in the hands of Nero.

Besides that, I don't even have any relatives to rely on.Trish, who is only 15 years old, is now alone.

"...In that case, I have a proposal."

Nero looked at Trish.

Suzumi Sugimoto also appeared with a smile and sat between Nero and Trish.

Suzumi took over the conversation.

"Terry Hugh, are you willing to be our adopted daughter?"

"……Hey?"

Trixie was taken aback, thinking he had heard wrong.

Chapter 98

When Nero said this.

Not only Trish, but even Apache, who was about to take a nap in the driver's seat, woke up from the fright, and lost all sleepiness in an instant.

Nero looked sincerely and said: "We are serious, Trish. You have also seen the state of Suzumi and I. She and I cannot have our children. Of course, I don't really care if I have a biological child or not. Regarding the matter of the child, Qi Beilin's family has no throne to pass on, so it's fine to just live with each other until the end of time.

"But if the time is right, adopting a child is also a good choice.

"Trixiu Una, if you want, I hope you can become our adopted daughter."

"I……"

Trish was stunned.

The sudden invitation made the 15-year-old girl a little at a loss.

Just when Trixiu was about to accept it, she suddenly thought of something: "Is it really possible? After all, I am... that man's child. I have that man's blood flowing on my body..."

"Great people are not born great, but their "doing" shows their greatness in the process of growing up.Likewise, sinful people are not born mean, but depraved by what they "do" as they grow up. "

Speaking of this, Nero paused.

Immediately afterwards, Nero said again: "I told you that when I first met you, right? You have not benefited from your father's sins since you were young, whether it is material or spiritual, so you don't need to suffer because of your father's sins." If you feel guilty for Diablo's evil deeds, you can hold your head upright."

Suzumi Sugimoto gently held Trish's hand: "Tricho, how are you?"

"...Actually, there is a problem."

Trish hesitated and opened his mouth.

Nero nodded: "Is it about me killing Diablo? After all, he is your biological father. No matter how you say it, it's really weird to be an adopted daughter of someone who killed your biological father, but you You don’t have to worry about it, you should have heard similar stories-the police brought the criminal to justice, and what awaited the criminal would be endless imprisonment or even shooting. At this time, the kind police found the criminal’s young The child was left unattended, so the child was adopted and raised.

"Just put yourself in the child's place in these kinds of stories, Trish."

"No... I was actually thinking about another question." Trixie finally opened his mouth, "Nero, how old are you this year?"

"...?"

Nero froze for a moment, thought for a moment and counted with his fingers.

After calculating for a while, Nero said the answer seriously: "28 years old?"

"Why is it a question sentence!"

Apache finally couldn't help complaining.

Then Apache quickly shut up again.

Trish took a deep breath: "I am 15 years old, only younger than you... 13 years old?"

Nero didn't care: "What's wrong with being 13 years old? I dare to marry a ghost, so what's the problem with adopting an adopted daughter who is 13 years younger than me? What's more, a 13-year-old boy almost has that function, so being a father is not a big problem. Besides, Suzumi's age is appropriate. Suzumi was 16 years old when she passed away, and died in [-], so now she is [-]..."

"16 is old."

Suzumi Sugimoto interrupted Nero with a smile.

The laugh was a little dangerous, and Nero couldn't help shivering.

Nero said cautiously: "But..."

"16 is old."

Suzumi Sugimoto repeated again.

Immediately Suzumi Suzumi added: "As long as a person dies, when people mention the deceased, they will always say "how old they were" and will never add how many years they died!So I'm 16!A 16-year-old girl forever!Do you understand, Nero sauce? "

Immediately afterwards, Suzumi Suzumi showed her right hand and made a slow pinching movement, which made Nero feel a chill down his lower body.

Nero immediately nodded obediently: "16 years old."

Suzumi Sugimoto nodded in satisfaction.

Immediately Nero looked at Trixie: "Then Trixie, if you don't mind that your adoptive father is only 13 years older than you, and your adoptive mother is only one year older than you - even in a few years, your adoptive mother may If you are younger than you, would you like to be our adopted daughter?"

"..."

Hearing Nero's words, Trixie fell silent.

First he looked at the smiling Nero, and then at the sincere Suzumi Sugimoto.

Whether it is Nero or Suzumi, their eyes are so clear.Not only that, the temptation to have a new family is too great for Trixie who has just lost all his relatives-even if there seems to be something wrong with the two families.

Finally, Trish raised his head.

"I am willing, Ni...ah no, do I have to call "Father" next? "

"Change your words slowly. At the beginning, I might not get used to it. It will be fine after a while."

Nero said so.

Suzumi Sugimoto signaled Trish to sit in the middle, and then floated to the other side of the back row, sandwiching Trish with Nero.

Trish brewed a moment of emotion.

First, she looked at Suzumi Sugimoto: "...Mom?"

"Hey!"

Suzumi Sugimoto smiled, very sweetly.

Immediately afterwards, Trixie looked at Nero again: "...Dad?"

"Hohoho."

Nero smiled too, like a poker player.

As for Apache, he looked at the family of three in the back row through the rearview mirror with a delicate expression.

But thinking that everything has finally come to an end, Bugarati and the others have no problem. Although the organization collapsed, everyone successfully got the offer from the SPW consortium. Everything is moving towards a better future... Thinking of this, Ah A smile spread across Paki's face.

At the same time, the fatigue accumulated in the past few days finally flooded into Apache's heart, causing Apache to yawn and fall asleep in the driver's seat—fortunately, the driver now, It's actually Nero who controls the ladder to heaven.

The pitch-black car drove northward under the night sky, heading towards Milan.

The next day.

Milan Central Station.

In the parking lot next to the train station, Nero, who hadn't closed his eyes all night after being punched by Diablo, was sitting on the hood, yawning constantly, waiting for the arrival of Jotaro and his party.

Not far away, Apache and Trixie have already met with Bugarati and others, chatting about their respective experiences in the past few days, and Giorno who just joined the Bugarati team Although Giovanna is only a 15-year-old kid, he has become a very popular member of the Bugarati team. Obviously, too many stories have happened in just a few days.

And at this moment, Suzumi Sugimoto suddenly spoke.

"Nero, here they come!"

"Ok?"

Nero froze for a moment.

Immediately, Nero saw one figure after another at the exit of the train station.

Kujo Jotaro.

Noriaki Kakyoin.

Polnareff.

Abdel.

Dongfang Jousuke.

Hongcun Yitai.

Rowan on the shore.

The figure of a group of seven people caught Nero's eyes.

And Polnareff with the silver broom head smiled and waved towards Nero.However, before Polnareff could speak, Nero shouted loudly.

"Polnareff! Kakyoin!"

"Ok?"

Kakyoin and Polnareff stared blankly at each other.

Immediately afterwards, the two heard Nero yelling at them solemnly.

"The world in the mirror—

"——It really exists ahhhhhh!!!"

postscript godfather

Group 4 8 8 ⑦ 4 9 ⑦ 9 9

If someone had asked in the past what the biggest secret of the organization "Passionate" was, everyone would have answered in unison——

The real face of the boss.

No one has ever known who their boss is, old or young, tall or thin, handsome or ugly... The turmoil that started on March [-] finally subsided, and the boss of the organization did not appear in a dignified manner until the end of the turmoil in front of people.

On the cloudless sky, as if a brand-new "Zibellin airship" from the battlefield of World War II floated quietly over a manor outside Rome, with the logo of "SPW Consortium" painted on the airbag.

This used to be a real estate under the name of Polpo, but now the owner of the real estate has changed to Nero Zeppelin.

The symphony orchestra performed the "Seventh Symphony in A Major" in the courtyard. No matter whether the heart is pitch black or gray in different shades, people of all ages are wearing serious suits or colorful dresses, holding glasses of red wine. Goblets shuttled between the crowds, posing with false smiles and speaking various social rhetoric.

Of course, some whispers are indispensable.

"...he is obviously not our boss?" a tall gangster said.

"Shhh! I'm dying!" The short companion beside him immediately changed his expression, signaling this person to keep quiet.After looking left and right, he lowered his voice, "Didn't you say it all? That's because the boss has been keeping a secret, and later, when he was quietly investigating the traitors in the organization and the guy who smuggled drugs, he had some misunderstandings with the intelligence team..."

"Do you believe this kind of nonsense?" The big man widened his eyes.

"I'm not stupid! Who doesn't know... Your Excellency Qibelin and the Bugarati team were hunted down by the real boss until yesterday? But no matter how you look at it now... hey, that's all it is anyway, What else do you want? Anyway, no one knows the true identity of the former boss, so you should be a little confused!"

The short man tried his best to persuade his companion to be more confused and not to do stupid things.

Similar discussions happened from time to time in the courtyard.

Nijimura Otoyasu, who was led by Nero to solve the "BIG" just last night, naturally also heard these discussions, and lowered his voice to speak to Higashija Jousuke at the same table.

"Let me tell you, Jousuke. Koichi is really a prophet, right?"

"Huh?" Jousuke was taken aback.
