Remembering the past.

When Jihai came downstairs, he saw Ryōsei and Natsuhiko talking to each other. He knew how close they were, especially when it came to spying on him. Naturally, this kind of thing won't have been tolerated but he was still in need of them.

Natsuhiko turned around when Ryōsei signaled him of an unknown presence. He smiled when he saw his cousin approaching them. "Jihai! Look, my father has been rescued, let's go and see him!"

Jihai looked behind him to see Ryōsei shaking his head in warning. He replied. "We should allow him to rest. Tomorrow I'll accompany you to greet him."

"But I want to go now." The light in Sakai Natsuhiko's eyes made Ryōsei retreat quietly but Jihai refused to back down.

"Enough, we should let him have some time to gather his thoughts in case we have to question him." Jihai relaxed his tense muscles when he saw that his cousin had agreed. "But coming back to business, explain to me why you scared my fiancee like that."
