Chapter 177 Today's Lost Dog, Fujiwara Yoshiaki
While Nagi Fujiwara was racking his brains to figure out how to cheat out the secret number, on the other side...

-

Xiyuanji Akino is playing flying chess with the children, playing the game of match-ups on the mobile phone, and drawing ghost cards.

When it was time for dinner in the evening, Xiyuanji Akino chatted casually with them, but basically they were talking about future dreams and things they wanted to do, without mentioning the secret number in the whole process.

"When you talk about pastry chefs, barbers, and manicurists, don't you think about going to college and getting a job?" Akino Xiyuanji asked these three obedient children.

"University?" The three children were all taken aback. They obviously didn't have any concept of this word.

Seeing their blank eyes, Akino Xiyuanji put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "After dinner, let's find out together? What kind of place is a university?"

After hearing this sentence, the three children all speeded up their chopsticks and almost devoured their food.

Although they don't know what a university is, their intuition tells them that a university is a better place than a specialized school.

Xiyuanji Akino took out his mobile phone, found the promotional video of the University of Tokyo campus, and put it in front of the three children, letting them watch it slowly.

Looking at the vast campus, the free and pleasant learning atmosphere, and the lively scene of the university festival, their young hearts were strongly shocked.

Especially after comparing with the environment of the previous orphanage, they began to instinctively yearn for the beautiful environment of the university.

"In addition to these changes in the environment, there are many majors in the university..."

"Big Brother, what is Space Engineering?"

"Do you know about rockets, and space vehicles?"

"No, I don't know, what is that that sounds cool."

"Well, wait a minute, I'll find a video for you to watch."

Xiyuanji Akino found movie clips of rocket launches and spacecraft flying in space.

Watching the special effects in the video, the three children made wow sounds in unison, all watching with gusto.

"The subject of space engineering is to learn the operating principles of these machines and the knowledge related to aerospace."

"What's the use of learning this?" The little girl tilted her head.

"Stupid, this is cool, cool is over!" the little boy said with a little excitement, this was the first time he had shown such obvious emotions, and he had always been quite restrained before.

"I don't see what's so cool, big brother, can we look at other ones? I just saw a department called Life Cognitive Science. What is that one for?"

"Big brother, the subject of history and culture is the study of history, right?"

"Why are you doing this, that's the question I want to ask!"

"I asked first!"

"Shut up, I want to continue watching the Rockets!"

Akino Xiyuanji looked at them as if they were about to fight, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, come one by one and explain one by one."

Two hours later, Xiyuanji Akino explained 90.00% of the majors at the University of Tokyo to the children, fully satisfying their curiosity.

It also fueled their desire to go to college.

It's just that this longing is just a small flame, which may be extinguished at any moment.

After all, the three children are also very aware of their current situation. After all, Nagi Fujiwara has told them very clearly before that they came to the Fujiwara house to be servants. They should be servants all their lives. Going to college or something is probably just a luxury.

Xiyuanji Akino could see their disappointment, so he smiled and said, "You all want to go to college and see the wider world outside, right?"

The three children looked at each other without answering.

"If you can't speak, then nod, or shake your head?"

The children nodded.

Xiyuan Temple Akino: "After a while, I will send you to school, okay?"

"Huh? Go to school?"

"Can we still go to school?"

Xiyuan Temple Akino: "Of course, not only can I go to school, but I can also leave here."

"You won't stay here for a long time. There is still half a month at most before I can send you out. At that time, I will help you arrange the school and the host family in the future. Then you can go to school well, and then Go chase your college dreams."

"..." Listening to this dreamlike narration, the three children suddenly came to their senses.

This is the painting cake, right?

Like the dean, like the big brother named Fujiwara Tsutsumitsu, he just created a false beauty to make them believe and make them work voluntarily for these unattainable goals.

Although Xiyuanji Akino treated them very well just now, much better than Fujiwara Tsutsumitsu, but in the end, he did it for those secret numbers, right?
Saying that they can go out and go to college is just their tricks, right?
"Big brother, is what you said true?" one of the little girls asked.

The other two children were silent at this moment, they observed the expression of Akino Xiyuanji.

"it is true."

"Why... help us?"

"Because I was the one who involved you in this so-called competition, which affected your original life."

"Although we only met for the first time today, and we only got along for a few hours, I can see that you are all good children, so you should not receive some twisted education, nor should you be deceived and used. "

"You don't need to care about the content of this competition now, and I never thought of defrauding your trust in exchange for some secret number."

"But... but in that case, wouldn't you lose, big brother?"

"Then lose." Xiyuanji Akino smiled nonchalantly, "Trust is not something that can be cultivated in a day or two. It is very precious and worthy of our cherishing, but if you betray Without trust, there is no doubt that it devalues ​​the original value of trust.”

"You three are very good friends, right?"

The children nodded again.

"Then if one day, someone wants to use some despicable means to lure you to betray each other, will you do that?"

"...No, no!" The little boy immediately responded after hearing the words.

The two little girls followed closely behind.

"will not!"

"Yes, friendship and trust are things with unique value, which cannot be compared with any material benefits."

"So, I will not betray our current friendship for those things."

"Our friendship?"

"Yeah, Ryotaro, Kashi, Mitsuko, we are friends now."

"So, as your big brother and your friend, I am willing to help you realize your dreams and help you get admitted to university in the future, instead of watching you live in this mire-like environment and ignore it. "

"Believe me, what I told you today will not be a lie."

Xiyuanji Akino stretched out his hand, stroked the heads of the three children gently, and said with a smile, "Okay, it's almost time, take a good rest, and I'll come play with you again tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Akino Xiyuanji got up, walked out of the room slowly, and said good night to them with a smile before leaving, and then closed the door.

The swaying flames in the hearts of the three children became more and more intense under the stimulation of the words just now. For the first time, they felt the fiery desire in their hearts.

When they came back to their senses, they found that they were all staring at the door closed by Akino of Xiyuan Temple for a long, long time.

……

On the second day, Akino of Saiyuanji really didn't mention the so-called secret number. In the evening, after dinner, he accompanied the children to watch a touching movie "Hachiko".

Xiyuanji Akino looked at them gently while handing tissues to the children.

Feeling this care, and recalling what Saiyuanji Akino said yesterday.

It's about trust, it's about friendship.

This is something that shines brighter than any substance, diamonds, and is clearer and purer than the sky.Just like Hachiko's friendship with his master.

If he proposed to tell him those numbers at this time, would it be a betrayal of this friendship?
no, no...

not like this!
When the three children left Akino of Xiyuan Temple, they stopped him in unison.

"Big brother!"

"Ok?"

"Thank you...we believe in you and what you say, good night!"

"Okay, good night." Xiyuanji Akino waved to them and left with ease.

He really didn't think about deceiving these children, and he was ready to lose this round of competition.

There are three competitions in total.

This is only the second round of the first competition.

As long as the next two wins, that's fine.

Xiyuanji Akino thought so, but his lowered hand clenched into a fist.

After he left completely, the three children opened the door together and came to the other side in the opposite direction. They found Aunt Kyoko who had the most impressive impression and was the friendliest to them.

"Kyoko, Aunt Kyoko!"

"What's wrong?" Jingzi was very surprised that these three children would come to her at this time.

"We want to talk to Grandpa Fujiwara!"

"We have something important to say!"

"Can Aunt Kyoko take us to meet him?"

"... "

"Yes." Kyoko nodded very softly.

-

Fujiwara Yoshiaki looked at the three children who were looking at him and could not stop shaking, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What do you want to say?" His aura was as oppressive as ever, adults would be overwhelmed by this aura, let alone these five or six-year-old children.

"Grandpa Fujiwara, I, our number is..." Led by the little boy, they recited the correct number in order.

"We don't need big brother Akino to help us report, we trust him, so...we want him to win!"

"..." Fujiwara Yoshiaki looked at the three children quietly, and waved his hands lightly, "Go back."

"Fuji, Grandpa Fujiwara!"

"Don't call me Grandpa Fujiwara, you are not from the Fujiwara family."

"..."

"Go back, I know."

"Then, is Brother Akino winning now?"

Fujiwara Yoshiaki looked at the stubborn expressions of the three children, and nodded slowly.

"He won."

"Great, great!"

"Thank you, Grandpa Fujiwara!"

"thanks!!"

After hearing the satisfactory answer, the three children showed joy, so they thanked them politely, and walked out of the tea room where Yoshiaki Fujiwara was staying.

"Good night, Grandpa Fujiwara!"

"good night!"

"..."

After Fujiwara Yoshiaki ordered Kyoko to send the children back, he looked down at the tea set on the coffee table and wanted to hold back his smile, but he couldn't.

Finally laughed out loud.

After laughing for about five or six minutes, he didn't notice Kyoko who had come back and was waiting by the door.

"Cough, why didn't you talk when you came back?" Fujiwara Yoshiaki coughed a few times, his old face flushed.

"It's rare to see Lord Yixian smiling so happily, so I want to see more."

"..."

"So Yixian-sama got a satisfactory result from the test?"

"Not yet, but it's almost there."

"Do you know why I specially recruited some children to come over as the subjects of the competition?"

"Master Yixian's thoughts, I can't figure it out."

"...You can guess a little bit." Fujiwara Yoshiaki felt a little bit annoyed by Kyoko who didn't support him.

"Adults are blinded by their interests and have many more weaknesses than clean children. As long as they grasp these weaknesses, it is not difficult to control them."

"And children seem to be easy to fool, but in fact it is very difficult to gain their true trust, and children are like a clean mirror, which can reflect a lot of things, and Mr. Yixian, you are based on the reactions of these children, Have you judged Miss Nagi, Master Akino's talent in controlling people?"

"..." Nagi Fujiwara opened his mouth, but was speechless for a while.

Jingzi immediately said wittily, "Master Yixian, I can't figure it out, so please clarify."

"..."

"I'm tired, let's go back and rest." Fujiwara Yoshiaki was still an inflated hot air balloon just now, but at this moment after Kyoko crackled and said, the balloon was punctured and turned into a listless appearance.

"Master Yixian, I was talking nonsense just now, please clarify."

"I said, let you go back to rest and sleep!" Fujiwara Yoshiaki's tone became a little more serious.

"Lord Yixian..."

"Aren't you going to sleep? I'm going back to sleep!" Fujiwara Yoshiaki slapped the table, got up angrily, and left the tea room.

And not long after Fujiwara Yoshiaki left, there was a "puchi" laughter in the tea room.
