Kujo Mien suddenly felt like crying.

“Woo——!”

However, the whimper did not come from her. Based on the source of the sound, she quickly looked to her side.

There, a delicate girl with long, shimmering golden hair, dressed in a black and white maid outfit, puffed out her cheeks, and tears welled up in her golden eyes.

According to Kujo Mion's memory, the other person's name seemed to be Chikari Makoto.

Based on the other person's delicate features and the smell of blood, Kujo Mien was able to roughly estimate the other person's age.

She should be the youngest among all the sisters.

Being young means having limited knowledge and experience.

Kujo Mien guessed that it must be the current abnormal family atmosphere that frightened the other party, who had never seen such a scene before.

Although I had never seen it myself, I had experienced a lot in the Kujo Zaibatsu, so I was generally able to handle it.

Tears were about to well up in her eyes.

Kujo Mien pursed her pink lips, a hint of reluctance flashing in her wine-red eyes.

She took a few steps toward Chiharu and reached out her hand, wanting to comfort her young sister.

however……

Just as she reached out her hand, hesitating to speak.

All that could be seen was Chikuri Shin rushing forward at an extremely fast speed, shouting loudly in a clear voice with a hint of sobbing.

"My mom's first stool was mine!"

Why did you steal my exclusive identity?!

Chishou's heart was filled with grief and indignation.

When the scarlet vertical pupils first appeared, her mother treated it as if it were just a one-time thing. Now, a bunch of sisters have suddenly appeared and are competing with her for this position. She will not allow it!

When Kujo Mion heard Chikari's shout, a mocking smile appeared on her pink lips.

I was so naive to actually believe that there were normal people among my sisters.

Just then, a clear, cold female voice rang out beside her.

"Really, she's still too young."

"To think that you would shed tears over something like this, what's there to cry about or fight over?"

Upon hearing this, Kujo Mien's wine-red eyes lit up immediately, and she looked around.

Then she saw that next to where Chikari Makoto had been standing, not far away, stood a black-haired girl with her hands holding a sword, her dark, beautiful eyes calmly watching the four people who were making a ruckus in front of her.

Indeed, it's best not to jump to conclusions until the very last step.

In an organization or a family, how can everyone be a daughter who wants to be her mother's stool and hopes her mother will sit on her lap?

However, facing the girl in front of her, Kujo Mien did not know her name for a moment.

During the conversation among the daughters, the girl in front of me didn't say a word.

Although Kujo Mion had seen the other person before.

Because the Kujo Zaibatsu's plans were communicated through the black-haired girl's special abilities.

However, the two never officially met.

To be on the safe side, Kujo Mion always kept the information in a hidden place, and Kuchiki Mei used her special ability to reach that place and take it away.

Kujo Mion hid in the distance and only left after seeing the intelligence successfully taken.

Occasionally, someone would discover that the other party would use extremely sophisticated assassination techniques to kill them in an instant, without even giving them a chance to make a sound.

They are efficient and decisive in their work, and act swiftly and concisely.

Moreover, in Kujo Mion’s view, the other party’s temperament was also unusually cold and sharp, like a silent blade.

However, it was still a bit odd that the black-haired girl said that Chikari was too young.

According to Kujo Mion's perception, the black-haired girl and Chikari Makoto were practically the same age, with the black-haired girl being at most a year older than Chikari Makoto.

Of course, this is unusual and quite strange, especially compared to the behavior of those four people…

—————Not worth mentioning!

In any case, I can say that I have a small group of people to stick together and support each other.

Kujo Mien looked at the other person with her wine-red eyes, walked to the other person's side, and said softly.

"Hello, I am Kujo Mien, and I recently joined Natsukiyama."

"Your name is?"

Upon hearing this, Kuchiki Mei spoke succinctly.

"Mei."

"You can just call me Mei."

Calling someone by their first name would normally be considered very intimate, but since everyone in Natsumeyama is family, Mei Kuchiki felt there was absolutely no problem with it.

When Kujo Mien heard Mei say that, she immediately realized that Mei might not be as cold as she seemed, but was a girl with a cold exterior but a warm heart.

Unconsciously, their feelings for each other deepened.

she spoke.

"Mei, what a lovely name! It gives me a feeling of vitality and renewal, like a sprout emerging from the soil in spring."

Upon hearing this, Kuchiki Mei was slightly taken aback.

A hint of surprise appeared in her dark, beautiful eyes, and a slight blush rose to her cheeks as she spoke softly.

"Thank you."

This name was given to her by her mother. Her mother's appearance was indeed like a new life for her, like seeing the sun after the clouds had parted.

Even if that sun is red, it is still her sun.

This was also the first time someone had praised her name, and her impression of this sister who had joined not long ago had also improved.

This prompted her to say a few more words.

"Meiyuan, you don't need to be so careful and reserved."

As an assassin, Mei Kuchiki has a natural habit of observing every corner of her surroundings and the expressions and movements of everyone.

Although she doesn't know much about interpersonal communication.

However, their keen observation skills are first-rate.

She had noticed earlier that Kujo Mien's expression was unnatural, and after the other woman knelt down to pay her respects to her mother, she walked away.

Clearly, there was still some restraint and caution towards the members of Xia Huo Shan, but Mei felt that this was completely unnecessary.

She continued.

"My mother values ​​harmony within the family very much."

“Once, when we were playing around a little too much, my mother strictly forbade it.”

"Of course, our daily interactions are always very interesting; that one time was just a coincidence."

"If Meiyuan encounters any difficulties in the future, she can come to me directly. Actually, she can come to any of the sisters; everyone will sincerely help her."

Upon hearing this, Kujo Mien felt the warmth of sisterhood for the first time.

This prompted her to immediately raise her next question.

"Mei, do you know why they're so keen on being a mother's stool?"

"And what about you? Aren't you going to be Mom's stool?"

Although Kujo Mien knew that Mei was a normal person just like herself, she was still puzzled as to why the other sisters were so keen on having their mother sit on their laps.

They were also puzzled as to why Mei seemed to have been unaffected.

However, as soon as she spoke, she saw that Kuchiki Mei, whose expression had been cold and indifferent, had actually curled her pink lips into a slight smile.

Kujo Mien's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously felt a sense of foreboding.

When Kujo Miono spoke, Mei Kuchiki's voice remained calm, but it became more volatile than before, revealing a hint of unease.

she spoke.

"That's a reward."

As for me…

"Although I didn't actually snatch it, I didn't just blindly rush in like that. Many of my sisters are almost at A-level, and some have already reached A-level, while I'm still at B-level."

"Therefore, I need to use some... methods."

"look."

Mei Kuchiki extended her slender, pale index finger and pointed towards the feet of Makoto Chikari.

Following the direction pointed out by Kuchiki Mei, Kujo Mion looked over, but quickly a look of doubt appeared on her face, because there was nothing under Chikari Makoto's feet except for the other person's shadow.
