"Auntie Flower, is Billy home?”
Hanako, who was preparing lunch, opened the door and saw a young man with short brown hair standing at the door with two gift boxes in his hands. He looked a little embarrassed.
"It's Mao. Billy just came back and is in his room upstairs. Are you here to play with him?”Seeing the person who came, Flower Lady smiled and led him in.
" I…I'm here to…" Xiao Mao, who was called over by his mother to apologize, lowered his head and looked at his shoes. His face was red and he stuttered for a long time.
"Xiao Mao, you've always been an obedient and sensible child in my heart. I know that you didn't do it on purpose when Billy fell into the water the other day, so you don't have to worry that I'll blame you."
"Your mother and I are as close as sisters. You and Billy were born on the same day and at the same time. Although the two of you often quarrel and fight, I can tell that you've always treated Billy as your best friend.”
"When the other children in the town said that our Billy was a wild child without a father, you bravely stood up for Billy.”
"Billy also secretly told Auntie that you're his best friend, Mao, so I'm sure he won't blame you for accidentally pushing him into the water two days ago.”
Flower Lady put down the spatula in her hand, squatted down, and patted the young man's head with a warm smile.
"Auntie, is what you said true? Billy secretly told you that I'm his best friend. Also, he won't blame me for accidentally pushing him into the river outside the town this time."
Hearing Flower Lady's words, the young man suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Of course it's true. Auntie never lies.”
"These past two days, when I was hospitalized in Changpan City Hospital, Billy was still clamoring to come back and play with you.”Flower Lady said seriously.
" Hmph hmph…" The young man, who had been too embarrassed to raise his head just now, raised his head proudly after hearing Flower Lady's words.
" Aunty, I'll go upstairs to play with Billy then." With no more grudges in his heart, Xiao Mao shrunk his neck and covered his mouth with his hand. After giggling for a while, he ran upstairs to Billy's room happily.
"Go, go. Auntie is preparing to cook. Xiao Mao, you can stay at Auntie's house for lunch.”
Seeing Xiao Mao run upstairs excitedly, Flower Lady also smiled happily.
"Alright!"
" Knock, knock…" Xiao Mao, who came to Billy's door, tried his best to restrain the joy on his face and knocked on the door in a cold manner.
————————
"Knock, knock ~"
"Who is it?" Billy, who was watching TV in the room, asked curiously when he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Guess ~" Outside the room, Xiao Mao pinched his nose and replied in a nasal voice.
" Huh???" When he heard the reply from the person outside the door, Billy was really confused.
"Do you want to guess?" Billy rolled his eyes and opened the door.
" Crack…Ahhhhh!!" However, what made Billy speechless was that the door couldn't be opened!!
"The door was pulled from the outside?" Billy suddenly realized something.
"Who's outside? Quickly let go." Billy said helplessly.
"Ahahahaha…"
"Since you've asked so sincerely, then I'll be merciful and tell you.”
" To prevent the world from being destroyed, to protect the world's peace, to carry out love and true handsomeness, cute and charming justice..." Outside the door, Xiao Mao held the door handle tightly with one hand and pinched his nose with the other as he spoke in a strange tone.
"Alright, alright, alright…I know you're a rocket team that's going to cross the Milky Way. Hurry up and fly away like a meteor. A white hole and a white tomorrow are waiting for you.”
Billy rolled his eyes again.
"Bullsh * t, I'm not a rocket team. I'm your mighty and handsome Young Master Xiao Mao.”Xiao Mao opened the door handle and picked up the two gift boxes on the ground.
"Kacha!"
"Grandson Damu, why are you here?”Billy opened the door and addressed the young man with short brown hair as he remembered.
"Don't call me Grandson Damu anymore. You're so annoying.”Hearing Billy's name, Xiao Mao, who was standing at the door, seemed to be like a monkey monster. Hot air came out of his pig nose as he shouted loudly.
"If I don't call you Grandson Damu, then what should I call you? Besides, don't you always call me last?”Billy said.
"You have to address me as the respected Young Master Xiao Mao, but from today onwards, I'll allow you to call me by my name directly. Xiao Mao."
"Of course, I won't call you last place in the future.”The young man carried two gift boxes and pushed Billy, who was blocking the door, into the room with his head held high and chest puffed out.
His smug expression made it seem as if this was his home and the room in front of him was his. Billy shrugged speechlessly.
However, Billy didn't hate Mao's current state.
In the original novel, Shigeru was a strong rival in the plot of the first generation of Little Wisdom. Although he appeared in front of the audience with a very arrogant attitude at the beginning, after the Quartz Conference and the City Capital Silver Mountain Conference, he was able to defeat Shigeru.
The originally arrogant Xiao Mao gradually became mature, steady, and humble. He truly became a strong opponent that the protagonist, Xiao Zhi, needed to chase after.
Now that he had fused with the memories of the original Satoshi, he realized that the two of them were actually very close. Shigeru's mother, Mieko, was as close as a sister to his own mother. Shigeru and he were born on the same day, almost at the same time.
The reason why the original Billy and Xiao Mao didn't get along was because the two of them wanted to compete. Now that an adult's soul had entered his body, he realized that 'he' actually had a very good relationship with Xiao Mao.
It was not an exaggeration to describe their relationship as 'childhood sweethearts.'
"By the way, Xiao Mao, why did you think of coming to look for me today? I remember that you usually don't want to come to my house unless Auntie Mieko asks you to come with her.”Billy, who was closing the door behind him, asked.
" Oh yeah!" Hearing Billy call him by his name instead of 'grandson Omu,' Shigeru, who was walking in front with the gift box in his arms, happily shouted 'oh yeah' in his heart.
"Xiao Mao ~"
"Hah! Oh, oh…"
"I just guessed that you would be bored, Billy, so I specially came to visit you.”Xiao Mao, who was afraid of being seen through, said proudly.
"Is that so? Why do I feel like Auntie Mieko sent you here to apologize to me?”Billy narrowed his eyes and looked at Mao suspiciously.
"Apologize? What apology?" Mao raised his head, his cheeks slightly red as he didn't dare to look Billy in the eye.
