After the explanation, Tohno Akiha left the Tohno household accompanied by Hisui.

Although she was the current head of the Tohno family, Akiha had just turned sixteen that year and was still attending school.

Meanwhile, Fang Li began to familiarize himself with the affairs of the Western-style mansion under Kohaku's guidance.

However, Fang Li seemed distracted throughout the process.

This caused Kohaku to speak out angrily several times.

"Fang Li San, if you continue to be so distracted, I might just ignore you!"

Seeing Kohaku getting really angry, Fang Li could only smile wryly.

"My apologies," Fang Li helplessly replied to Kohaku, "I was just thinking about what Ojou-sama said earlier."

Hearing this, Kohaku's anger slowly disappeared from her face. After a moment of silence, she said, "Are you thinking about Master Makihisa?"

Fang Li lifted his eyes to meet Kohaku's.

Kohaku's expression seemed somewhat complicated.

It was the first time that Fang Li had seen this side of the lively and cheerful girl.

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Li finally asked Kohaku, "What kind of person is Tohno Makihisa to you?"

"What kind of person?" Kohaku chuckled unexpectedly and looked a bit worried. "Even if you ask me that, I'm not sure how to answer."

"You're not sure?" Fang Li pressed, "What do you mean?"

"It's simple," Kohaku explained, "because I don't know what kind of person Master Makihisa really is."

"You don't know?" Fang Li was astonished.

This was another unexpected revelation.

Based on his knowledge of the original story, Fang Li knew that the twins Kohaku and Hisui had been brought to the Tohno household by Tohno Makihisa at a young age and raised as dedicated servants to the direct descendants of the Tohno family.

But this Kohaku, surprisingly, didn't know what kind of person Tohno Makihisa was?

But then, Fang Li quickly understood.

As Akiha had mentioned, due to Fang Li's presence, Tohno Makihisa rarely returned to the Tohno household over the years.

In that case...

"I have also rarely seen Master Makihisa," Kohaku smiled at Fang Li. "Although Master Makihisa brought Hisui and me to the Tohno household, he rarely came back after that. Sometimes, it took him two or three years to return, and it was always to attend to family matters. Even Akiha Sama saw him only a few times. After that, I hardly ever saw Master Makihisa."

Indeed.

Since she hardly ever saw him, Kohaku naturally didn't know what kind of person Tohno Makihisa really was.

"Actually, Fang Li San, you probably meet Master Makihisa more often than we did, right?" Kohaku looked at Fang Li slyly and added somewhat carefully: "After all, Master Makihisa has been chasing after you all these years."

"Is that so?" Fang Li rubbed his forehead, feeling somewhat worried. "If that's what you think, then let's leave it at that."

"Why?" Kohaku was curious now and asked, "Could it be that Fang Li-San has never met Master Makihisa?"

"Of course not." Fang Li looked at Kohaku, his expression ambiguous. "If I had really met him, that guy would not have died suddenly, but would have been killed outright."

"Uh..." Kohaku was speechless.

"Why?" Fang Li teased, "Are you getting scared now?"

"N-no... I'm not." Kohaku turned her head away, feeling a little guilty. "I... why should I be scared?"

"Isn't it natural?" Fang Li said frankly. "The person standing in front of you is said to be a survivor of the Assassin Clan who knows nothing but how to kill."

---

This is the current situation.

Being alone with a survivor of the Murdering Demon Clan would make anyone feel afraid.

Especially Kohaku, who is just a young girl.

However, after hearing Fang Li's words, Kohaku smiled.

"Fang Li San really likes to joke around," Kohaku laughed unconcernedly and said, "I know you're not the type to kill randomly for no reason."

"Oh?" Fang Li was surprised and asked, "Why do you think that?"

Kohaku laughed merrily, one hand on her hip and the other raised, playfully poking Fang Li's cheek.

Immediately, with a broad smile on her face, Kohaku said such a line.

"Because someone like that wouldn't smile like Fang Li San."

Leaving those words behind, Kohaku turned around, hummed a song, and left in a very good mood.

Watching Kohaku walk away, Fang Li frowned and muttered something uncertain.

"How exactly am I smiling?"

With this question in mind, Fang Li caught up with Kohaku.

...

Actually, Fang Li was no stranger to the duties of a butler.

During his time at Butei High, he often disguised himself for infiltration investigations.

Therefore, there were special courses at Butei High for Butei to learn various skills, including how to smoothly assume different identities for infiltration investigations.

Among them were courses related to butler duties.

In addition, Fang Li had also done missions where he disguised himself as a butler once or twice, so he was naturally familiar with the duties of a butler.

Therefore, even in his absent-minded state, Fang Li quickly grasped the affairs of the Tohno household, surprising Kohaku.

As time passed, Fang Li gradually became familiar with the affairs of the Western-style mansion.

Eventually, evening came.

"Is this the place?"

Following the address provided by Kohaku, Fang Li arrived at a school.

This high school was located in Misaki City.

It was now the time for students to graduate.

One by one, students in uniforms came out of the campus. As they passed by Fang Li's side, some of them cast curious glances at him, but none of them stayed.

Fang Li ignored the glances of the students and stood quietly at the school gate, waiting for his target.

Gradually, the surroundings began to thin out.

Under the twilight of the evening, a quiet atmosphere settled over the campus, dispelling the aura of bustling activity.

Fang Li stood there waiting, and even after no one else came out of the school, he still stood there in silence.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Fang Li heard footsteps, raised his head, and looked ahead.

"Huh?"

Almost at the same time, a young man slowly walked out of the school and also raised his head when he saw Fang Li.

Their eyes met in the air.

Looking at the somewhat stunned young man, Fang Li couldn't help but smile.

"We finally meet..."

"Tohno Shiki..."
