Chapitre 196: Old Acquaintance

"Please take me… to that place," the young girl requested shyly with a flushed face.

‘Now that’s really cute.’

Seiji inwardly praised her at this scene, while remaining calm on the surface.

"Okay, follow us."

He didn’t say anything else to the girl as he led the way.

…

Seiji and Mayuzumi followed the signs and took the little girl to the booth which was set up to deal with lost children.

Coincidentally they saw a young green-haired man talking anxiously with the Morals and Discipline Committee members in charge here.

He was tall and slender with a handsome face. He was wearing a dark-colored jacket and long pants, and his smallish eyes were set in a anxious, sweat-covered face.

"Uncle!" the little girl shouted and ran towards him when she caught sight of his figure.

The green-haired man turned around upon hearing her and showed an expression of shocked delight.

"Reo!"

He kneeled as he hugged the little girl.
