Chapter 684: Chapter 682: Family_1 Chapter 684: Chapter 682: Family_1 “Actually, I haven’t been here for very long either.”

Even though Su Gao didn’t know what kind of things Mr. Fu Qian mentioned the lady liked to do, she clearly wasn’t going to refuse Mr. Fu Qian’s suggestion.

As they continued their walk, Mr. Fu Qian rambled on while they moved along.

“But in my memory, this place, Xidao, still has a legendary story.”

“What story?”

Su Gao asked cooperatively.

“It’s about a heroic figure. Basically, one day, a mountain flood broke out, and to protect the downstream village, the brave Bananachi jumped into the water, using his proud muscles to hold back the floodwaters, saving many people. In the end, he was widely celebrated.”

“That’s got to be fake…”

It was rare to see Su Gao show an incredulous expression, even though it was on a different face.

Witnessing this, Mr. Fu Qian felt a sudden understanding for her ‘fairy-tale genius’ mother.

Back in the day when in a desperate situation, she must have amused herself with such nonsense while watching her daughter’s reactions.

“However, even though it’s not real, it’s at least a benevolent story.”

It seemed Su Gao had similar thoughts, as she didn’t wait for Mr. Fu Qian to say anything, She began to speak to herself, as if lost in some distant reverie.

…

“Is this the place?”

Sometime later, Su Gao looked at the Fortune Teller’s Cottage in front of her and turned to confirm with Mr. Fu Qian.

“Yes, isn’t fortune-telling always a hobby of ladies?”

Mr. Fu Qian gestured with his hand, indicating she should go in.

“Inside is a fortune teller who’s quite good at reading people, but not very outstanding.”

“Mr. Darcy, long time no see.”

Within the Fortune Teller’s Cottage, the lighting was always dim.

Dressed in a dark robe, Kisaragi Chie sat there, and upon clearly seeing the two guests who entered, greeted Mr. Fu Qian first.

“Long time no see.”

Mr. Fu Qian responded while gesturing for Su Gao to take a seat across from Kisaragi Chie.

“Is the lady here for a reading today? What a pleasure!”

Kisaragi Chie assessed Su Gao with the practiced gaze of a fortuneteller.

“Yes, Violetta.”

Mr. Fu Qian introduced her from the side and then turned towards Su Gao.

“Kisaragi Chie.”

“Pleased to meet you.”

Su Gao greeted her very politely.

“I’m pleased as well. What would you like to ask?”

Kisaragi Chie responded with a smile.

“I want to know if… my holiday will go smoothly.”

Even though Su Gao had just learned she would be getting a reading, she spoke almost without hesitation, as if it was a wish she’d contemplated for a long time.

“Understood.”

Kisaragi Chie nodded, reaching behind her to pull out a deck of cards.

Quickly, following Kisaragi Chie’s instructions, Su Gao expertly shuffled and cut the deck, finally placing it back in front of her.

However, after picking up a card, Kisaragi Chie looked at Su Gao and seemed to ponder for a moment.

“It seems things will go well, but you might still need to be wary of some external dangers. Be cautious at all times.”

Finally, the fortuneteller spoke after a long pause.

Don’t look at me, why are you getting a reading and then staring at me? Am I that hidden danger you’re talking about?

Mr. Fu Qian was already internally grumbling to himself at this point.

To understand Kisaragi Chie’s words wasn’t difficult.

Last time we met, he was observant and firmly believed he had no intentions of harming Kagetsu Kana.

But that was only relevant to the situation at the time; he was not completely unaware of his own past actions.

And such an “ignorant girl,” if she were to mix with him and forcibly claim that everything was going smoothly, probably couldn’t say so.

This was the downside of being observant; had he focused solely on interpreting the fortune-telling results, he wouldn’t have been so hesitant.

Second-rate, one could say that Kisaragi Chie indeed knew herself well.

“Thank you!”

Facing Kisaragi Chie’s interpretation, Su Gao didn’t continue to inquire.

At that moment, footsteps approached from behind, and the next second light shone in from outside as two shadows entered the door, one after the other.

“Sorry, I didn’t realize there were guests.”

A somewhat familiar voice sounded first, and the next moment, the person who spoke paused upon getting a clear view of Fu Qian and his companion.

She had a good figure, fair skin, and features similar to Kisaragi Chie’s, but noticeably more refined–it was Kagetsu Kana.

Whether it was the shock from the Miracle Elixir incident or not, compared to the last time they met, she no longer had the same radiance, and her overall style had become much more subdued.

Unexpectedly, the person following her was also an acquaintance–Takagi.

This neighbor, who was crazily infatuated with her and even created a secret space especially for her, was now genuinely standing by her side, appearing quite affectionate.

There was an inexplicable feeling that lovers had finally come together, living a happy and contented life.

Fu Qian reflected for a moment, then said with a smile.

“It’s fine, we had just finished anyway.”

“Mr. Darcy, long time no see.”

Kagetsu Kana’s expression was slightly complex, but she quickly adjusted and took the initiative to greet him.

As for Brother Takagi, he appeared visibly nervous, swallowing involuntarily.

Clearly, he was familiar with and had a deep impression of Darcy Crawford.

“Who is this?”

After greeting Fu Qian, Kagetsu Kana’s gaze, however, was mostly locked on Su Gao’s face.

“Violetta, here for a vacation.”

Fu Qian introduced succinctly.

“Takagi is now Kana’s boyfriend,”
Kisaragi Chie, sitting inside, also introduced to Fu Qian and his companion.

Understood.

Kisaragi Chie emphasized the term boyfriend, clearly indicating that after her sister had been hit hard, she had undergone a complete transformation and was now focusing on nurturing a relationship.

In fact, it was still early, and the two coming back together from outside easily suggested they might already be living together.

From this perspective, his plan Jane 9527 seemed not to have yielded anything of value.

Although the observation subject was safe and sound within the short safety zone he had designed, it also appeared that he had directly turned over a new leaf.

But was it really so?

…
Kagetsu Kana had come back to retrieve something, and after a brief and uninformative exchange, she soon left; Fu Qian and his companion also took their leave shortly after.

“One really shouldn’t be blindly optimistic,”
Fu Qian sighed as they left the Fortune Teller’s Cottage.

“That Kagetsu Kana is somewhat special, is she the subject you were talking about?”

Su Gao said from beside him.

“That’s right, she once experienced resurrection,”
Fu Qian did not hide what had happened to Kagetsu Kana.

“As an ordinary person, not only did she die at the time, but she was also eviscerated, with parts of her organs removed. However, after I replenished them, she still came back to life.”

“That is indeed strange,”
Su Gao listened very attentively and then furrowed her brows in thought.

“Resurrection is something I’ve only heard about in certain unverified rumors; up to now, I’ve never encountered anyone who could do that.”
