Chapter 5 Do you want to be my wife too?
After leaving the restaurant, Fujimura Taiga noticed that he had two little tails following him.
"No, what are you two doing following me?"
Turning around, he asked the two children, somewhat puzzled.
"Ah, this..."
Young Sakura was a little unsure how to answer. She had just seen Broly come out and subconsciously followed her. Now, when the older girl in front of her asked why she followed her, she was at a loss for words. But she quickly came up with a reasonable and justifiable reason.
"I wanted to thank you, big sister, for helping us."
Young Sakura's timid and weak manner of speaking evoked a strong protective instinct in people.
"Ha, what a polite little sister. But you're welcome. I only helped you on a whim."
Fujimura Taiga bent down, reached out and touched the girl's soft little head, then turned to ask the little boy who was also following him.
"So, little brother, are you here to thank your big sister too?"
Broly didn't quite understand the meaning of "thank you," but he said directly to Fujimura Taiga, "I'm not here to thank you, I'm here to find my wife."
"Looking for a wife?"
Fujimura Taiga was taken aback. It was still quite strange that a young boy would say such things with such a serious expression.
"What does this have to do with you following me?"
She asked.
"You are the new wife I've been looking for."
Broly pointed at the girl's nose and said very seriously that this was one of the figure wives confirmed by Crystal Palace, and that she was someone who could provide food for him.
"Is this some kind of new-age staged accident scam?"
Fujimura Taiga was speechless, but seeing how cute the little boy was, he reached out and pinched his cheek.
"You are quite cute, but you are too young. If you want to be my boyfriend, you'll have to be at least ten years older."
Compared to Fujimura Taiga's teasing attitude towards children, young Sakura was shocked by Broly's words.
"Aren't I your wife?"
The girl asked.
"Who are you."
Broly nodded in acknowledgment that he had not forgotten some of the food he had just been fed.
"Then why are you looking for a wife again?"
"Is it true that you can only have one wife?"
Broly countered with a question, and young Sakura fell silent, but it seemed that what he said wasn't wrong.
"Hey, so fickle at such a young age?"
After hearing this, Fujimura Taiga immediately increased the pressure he was applying to the little boy's cheeks.
"Would you like to be my wife?"
Broly didn't feel anything. Even if the girl was strong, it was still within the range of normal human strength, so it didn't hurt him at all.
"Of course I wouldn't want to!"
Fujimura Taiga answered the question as a matter of course, but she had already let go of the child's hand, afraid that she might actually hurt him.
"oh."
Broly was somewhat disappointed; his new wife was clearly unwilling to continue providing him with food.
"Hey, where are you going?"
Seeing the boy turn away with a disappointed expression on his face, Fujimura Taiga was stunned for a moment and quickly asked.
"It's getting late, I need to find a place to sleep."
Broly gave an honest answer, explaining that he also lived a nocturnal lifestyle on Vampa.
"Uh, don't you have anywhere to sleep?"
"no."
"There's a slope over there; I'm planning to dig a hole there."
Broly was serious when he said that; the large cave where they lived on Vampa was dug out by him and his father, Paragus.
Of course, while it's called digging, if the mountain itself is hard enough, you can also use an energy blast to directly create a breach, which would be more efficient.
Fujimura Taiga rubbed his temples and said to the two children, "If you're not afraid to get close to some people who look fierce, I can take you back to my old family home to stay."
"Hey, big sister, are you going to take us in?"
"I'm just worried that you two little ones might get hurt by bad people outside."
A serial killer has recently emerged in Fuyuki City, murdering many people without being caught by the police. Among the victims are some children.
Fujimura Taiga knew about this, but she was still temporarily staying at the old house when her grandfather, Fujimura Raiga, reminded her to be careful because he was worried about her safety going to and from school alone.
Fujimura Raiga originally intended to arrange for someone to take his granddaughter to and from school, but Fujimura Taiga directly refused.
One reason is that the girl is confident in her own fighting skills, and another reason is that Fujimura Taiga is unwilling to reveal her family background at school.
"The young lady is back."
"Welcome home, young lady!"
Because her family belongs to the Fujimura Group, the largest yakuza group in Fuyuki City.
"Is it necessary to do this every day?"
"Miss, wasn't it the team leader who instructed us to be warm and welcoming to you?"
Her grandfather was a good man, but he was a bit too eager. The main reason was that her father was unwilling to inherit the family business, so her grandfather wanted to groom her to be the successor of the Fujimura Group. But the problem was that she didn't want to be the future yakuza boss.
"Young Miss, what's this?"
With a scar on his face, he was clearly a man from the underworld. Seeing the two children following the young lady into the house, he couldn't help but ask them questions.
"I met two homeless children on the street. I was worried about them wandering around outside, so I brought them here."
Fujimura Taiga explained.
"Ah, so, is the young lady finally going to cultivate a core group of trusted men to take control of the Fujimura Group in the future?!"
Upon hearing this, the scarred-faced, fierce-looking man was actually somewhat moved and said loudly.
"It's not the original team, you bastard!"
"Boss Fujimura, the young lady has finally seen the light! She's willing to become your successor!"
The scarred man ran into the mansion to announce the good news, while Fujimura Taiga chased after him.
She now wanted nothing more than to kick to death that idiot in front of her who had misinterpreted her actions.
"What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket?"
Fujimura Raika, who was talking to a guest in the main house, couldn't help but frown when she saw the scarred-faced man rushing in.
But when Scarface told him that his granddaughter had suddenly brought back two homeless orphans, the big boss of the Fuyuki City underworld beamed with joy.
When underworld figures like them adopt orphans, it's to cultivate their inner circle. Only children raised from a young age can develop loyalty to the organization.
The scarred man in front of them was one of the orphans that Fujimura Raika had adopted. Even though he has started a family and career now, he and his children are still loyal to the Fujimura group.
"Don't over-explain my behavior in front of your grandfather!"
The sliding door of the main house was kicked open, and Fujimura Taiga delivered a flying kick, sending the scarred man flying to the side.
"Ahem, Taihe, there are still guests here!"
The girl in the sailor uniform stepped on the scarred man's back like a tigress hunting her prey. But after hearing her grandfather's words and noticing the mature man sitting next to her glaring fiercely at the scarred man under her feet, Fujimura Taiga finally restrained her tiger-like behavior and became quiet.
"Mr. Emiya, my apologies. My granddaughter's temperament is more like mine."
"It's alright, being a gangster, a bit of a temper is an advantage."
Emiya Kiritsugu remained expressionless and offered a flattering compliment in a flat tone.
"About the house."
"Let's go with the price you mentioned, Mr. Emiya. As for the goods you ordered, I'll have them delivered to the warehouse in the house next door tomorrow."
"OK."
Kiritsugu Emiya nodded and pushed the box he had brought over. The box was full of banknotes, money for buying a house and weapons.
As a former notorious magician assassin in the underworld, Kiritsugu Emiya still had some connections there.
Before the Holy Grail War began, he contacted the largest underground yakuza organization in Fuyuki City and ordered a batch of weapons through the Fujimura Group.
"Shouldn't we take inventory?"
Upon seeing the old man, Kiritsugu Emiya immediately ordered his subordinates to put away the box, and couldn't help but ask a question.
"I still trust Mr. Emiya's reputation."
After Fujimura Raika finished speaking, he asked his subordinates to see the guests off.
Kiritsugu Emiya got up and followed the Fujimura group out, where they encountered two children who had been brought in.
"Mr. Emiya?"
Kiritsugu Emiya suddenly stopped, which puzzled the Fujimura group members who were seeing him off.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something."
Kiritsugu Emiya spoke perfunctorily, but after leaving the Fujimura mansion, he frowned slightly.
He didn't recognize the boy he met in the corridor, but he knew that the girl was the youngest daughter of the Tohsaka family, as Kiritsugu Emiya had thoroughly investigated the situation of the opponents in this Holy Grail War.
According to the latest information, the other party should have been adopted by the Matou family, and it is unknown why they appeared in the Fujimura group's mansion.
"Could it be that I've been discovered? But if I have been discovered, isn't sending a child to approach me a bit too frivolous?"
Kiritsugu Emiya was preoccupied. He heard Maiya Kuon's question through his earpiece. He said he was fine, but in his heart he decided to investigate the situation.
. . . .
"Are you the two orphans my granddaughter brought home?"
Looking at the two children who were brought into the room, Fujimura Raika asked directly.
"Grandpa, I only brought them home because they were homeless and there's a serial killer out there. Please don't misunderstand and scare the children!"
Fujimura Taiga said from the side.
"Really? But this little guy seems quite brave."
Fujimura Raiga was referring to Broly. When he was brought over for questioning, Broly looked around as if he were observing the living conditions of people in the civilized world, and he was not intimidated at all by the old man with the same scar on his face.
On the other hand, young Sakura was genuinely afraid of the old man asking her questions and shrank behind Broly.
"Is there anything to eat?"
After looking around the room, Broly quickly lost interest and went straight to asking the old man this question.
Sakura Matou's grandfather was very generous, offering him insects upon their first meeting. Although he later learned it was a misunderstanding, Broly couldn't help but feel a great deal of anticipation for the grandfather of his new wife, Taiga Fujimura.
"Hey kid, how dare you be so rude to the team leader!"
"Oh, you're still not full?"
Scarface and Fujimura Taiga spoke together.
Broly patted his belly and simply replied to Fujimura Taiga's question, "Not yet."
Feeling his dignity was violated after being ignored by Broly, Scarface wanted to teach the brat a lesson.
"Step back."
But he was stopped by Fujimura Raika.
"It's a good thing that children can eat a lot and know how to beg for food."
Fujimura Raika turned her head and looked at Broly.
"However, if you want to get a meal from my Fujimura family, there are conditions."
"What are the conditions?"
"The Fujimura family does not support idlers. Only those who contribute to the Fujimura family are qualified to ask for a living in our family."
"What do you need me to do?"
Broly asked directly, "You reap what you sow." This is a consequence of the harsh environment of Planet Wampa. Only by hunting hard can one have food to eat. Broly agreed with this principle.
"You're still too young. My Fujimura family doesn't need you to do anything yet. So, all I need is for you to remember when you eat that you're eating the Fujimura family's food, and that you should be loyal to the Fujimura family from now on. You have to consider yourself a member of the Fujimura family, one of our own. Can you do that?"
Education must start from childhood. Compared to some petty thugs recruited later in life, the Fujimura Group's top leaders are all orphans raised from childhood. This loyalty and cohesion cultivated from a young age makes the Fujimura Group the only name in Fuyuki City's underworld.
What does "one of us" or "one of our own" mean?
Broly frowned slightly, deep in thought about the problem.
[Did you know about the Crystal Palace?]
He even inquired about the information in his mind, treating all the information that had appeared in his mind before as if it had been sent by the Crystal Palace.
[Based on context analysis, the terms "a member" and "one's own people" are similar to terms related to the relationship with one's wife.]
Crystal Palace actually replied to Broly. Upon receiving the explanation, Broly was slightly taken aback, then looked at Fujimura Raika in front of him and asked, somewhat deliberately, "So, you also want to be my wife?"
The room fell silent as soon as he said this. Everyone stared at him in disbelief. Although it was a child's words, it was still quite shocking.
"So, you weren't just after me, you were after my grandfather too?!"
Fujimura Taiga was also somewhat stunned, muttering to himself.
"What? He's even after you?"
Upon hearing this, Fujimura Raika was instantly enraged. His granddaughter was only fifteen years old, a genuine junior high school student. Anyone who dared to make a move on her, he would break their legs!
However, looking at the innocent-looking little boy who seemed unaware of what he had said and who looked to be only in kindergarten age...
Well, this is something a kid much younger than his granddaughter said. Well, it's alright then. A young girl taking advantage of a young boy isn't really his granddaughter being at a disadvantage.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Broly was somewhat puzzled.
[Host, please note that this Crystal Palace does not currently accept anyone other than your collectible figurines/waifus.]
In my mind, Crystal Palace reminded me.
So, we can't be on the same side after all...
Broly was somewhat disappointed. If he couldn't become one of the old man's friends, wouldn't that mean he wouldn't be able to eat here?
"Grandpa, this child has some cognitive issues. Don't argue with a child who has cognitive problems."
As Fujimura Taiga spoke on behalf of Broly, he pulled him and the girl out of the room.
"Can't I eat here?"
Broly, who was pulled out, asked.
"No, of course you can."
"But you won't agree to be my wife, and your grandfather can't be my wife either."
"You really want my grandfather to become your wife?"
"You can only eat if you have a wife."
Broly replied.
"So, you just want to eat, not really want to find a wife, right?"
Broly nodded readily.
"Alright, if this is all the kind of wife you want, I can agree to be your wife."
Fujimura Taiga finally understood what the child was thinking.
"So, I can eat here now?"
"Yes!"
"Where should we eat?"
Broly only cares about this.
"I'll take you there."
