Chapter 458: The Second Miss of the Tachibana Clan
She looked to be about twenty-three or twenty-four years old. She was wearing a Japanese military uniform and snow-white gloves. Her hair was tied in a bun at the back of her head, covered by a military cap. She looked very heroic.
Tachibana Kayaka does look 70% similar to her, with delicate and beautiful features, but their temperaments are completely different.
One is the beautiful girl's first love, and the other is the arrogant and cold queen.
There was a group of people following behind Tachibana Kawana, like stars surrounding the moon. The moment Yun Chu came out again, her eyes were fixed on her. Tachibana Kawana was also a stranger to this sister who was far away in Green City and had not been brought back for many years.
However, just with such a face, no one would doubt her identity.
Tachibana Kawana pondered for a moment, strode forward, looked Yun Chu up and down, and asked coldly: "How did you come back?"
She did not doubt Yun Chuyou's identity at the first moment, but asked this straightforward question.
The distance from Green City to Shanghai is not very short. She is a delicate girl and a weak college student, but the probability of her returning to Shanghai safely is too small, so she cannot afford to be careless.
Yun Chu looked at Tachibana Kawana again, with a trace of grievance on his face: "Sister, are you unhappy that I'm back?"
"I walked around the mountains and forests all the way, fearing that I would run into anyone on the road. At first, I was almost caught by the Four Elephants Party. It was Kawaiju Meiko and the others who risked their lives to protect me, so I was able to come back. You...you ask me these questions because you doubt me?"
As she spoke, her eyes turned red and tear marks appeared on her delicate little face, making her look pitiful.
Tachibana Kawana frowned. She dealt with spies and enemy spies on a daily basis and had never dealt with a girl who would burst into tears after just a few words. But considering that she was her own sister, Tachibana Kawana still suppressed her discomfort.
She said, "You need to tell me everything that happened in the past few days, including what you ate and drank."
Tachibana Kawana's tone was still cold, showing little sisterly affection. After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked away with her people. Halfway through, she saw Yun Chu still standing there crying, which gave her a headache. She said in a deep voice, "Why don't you catch up!"
Yun Chu wiped away her tears again, a faint light flashed in her eyes, and she followed closely.
Komatsu Yuji breathed a sigh of relief. Since the person was brought back, it meant that there was no problem with his identity. He acted as a middleman this time and it could be considered a good relationship. It would be even better if he could say a few words to the Fujiwara family because of this.
Xiaosong Youji thought about it and couldn't help smacking his lips. He was in a good mood as he fantasized about a bright future.

Tachibana Kawana brought Tachibana Kaleika into the car, and the latter began to whisper about what had happened in the past few days.
Apart from what Tan Huaishu had said, everything she said was true, half true and half false, which made Tachibana Kawana's cold expression ease a little. She turned around and looked at Tachibana Kayaka seriously for a few more times, and asked in a gentle voice, "Where is the family emblem?"
Yun Chu looked up at Tachibana Kawana again, took out the family emblem from his neck and handed it to Tachibana Kawana.
The latter stroked the family emblem carefully, gradually let down his guard, returned the family emblem, and tied it around Tachibana Kayaka's neck again.
Although her voice was cold, her eyes were full of concern. "We had never met before when you were in Green City, so it was inevitable that we had some doubts. Don't take it to heart. Just go back to Shanghai and be your second daughter of the Ju family. Don't worry about anything else. Go home. Your father is waiting for you at home. He cares about you, too."
After listening to Yun Chu's chattering for a while and finding no clues, Tachibana Kawana breathed a sigh of relief. She believed in her identity and her words were more warm and intimate like an elder sister, which was inconsistent with her character.
After all, they are a family. Even if Tachibana Kawana is cold and indifferent, she can't be cold to this harmless sister who is as little rabbit.
They arrived safely at the Western-style building where the Ju family settled in Shanghai. In the center of the huge garden was a fountain-like sculpture. The Western-style building was very grand and looked like it had been renovated. Living in such a large house in Shanghai, anyone would know that the owner was powerful.
Yun Chu pursed his lips again and followed Tachibana Kawana into the luxurious and imposing western-style building.
In the hall, a middle-aged man wearing loose clothes was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper with a cup of hot coffee at hand. Soon, the adjutant's surprised voice sounded: "Chief, the second lady is back!"
When the man heard the sound, he paused, put down the newspaper in his hand, and looked over.
The door opened, and Yun Chu followed Tachibana Kawana into the hall again. He glanced at everyone in the room, including the adjutant who looked happy and the servants who were busy working. Everyone had a different expression, but the focus of everyone was the person sitting on the sofa.
A gentle and elegant middle-aged man, who looked short but good-looking and wore a pair of glasses.
In Yun Chu's eyes, this middle-aged man had a huge Lv14 on his head, and he was a Japanese officer at the colonel level. Although many Japanese officers died at her hands, a colonel level was considered rare.
Obviously, this person is the senior executive of Shangfengtang, Tachibana Hirotoshi.
Yun Chu showed a timid expression again, hiding behind Tachibana Kawana, not daring to come forward. The latter frowned, held her collar and stepped forward, saying sternly: "You are the second daughter of the Tachibana family, not from a small family, what are you doing?"
She has always had a very famous name in Shanghai, but she didn't want her own sister to be so timid and embarrassing.
"Father, the person has been brought back." Tachibana Kawana took out Yun Chuyou and strode to the sofa to report.
Although Tachibana Hirotoshi is her father, he is also her immediate superior. The relationship between the father and daughter is different from that of ordinary fathers and daughters.
As she spoke, Tachibana Kawana looked up at Tachibana Hirotoshi and nodded at him imperceptibly.
It was our first meeting and there was no problem, but we still need to go to Greentown to investigate the details.
The daughter of Tachibana Hirotomo, the sister of Tachibana Kawana, the second daughter of the Tachibana family, these identities overlap and must be made clear so that no one can be confused, otherwise the blow to the empire will be enormous.
Ju Guangzhi looked at Yun Chu again, and when his eyes met her frightened look, he half-squinted his eyes, and after a moment, he said in a calm tone: "It's good that she's back safely, take her back to her room to have a good rest."
Tachibana Kawana bowed slightly, nodded, and took Yun Chuyou's hand and went upstairs.
She pushed open the door of a room, glanced around the room, and said, "This is your room. I have to go back to Shangfeng Hall. You can take a rest. Call for help if you need anything."
Yun Chu nodded cautiously again and watched Tachibana Kawana leave. As the door closed, the timidity in her eyes disappeared. She stood by the window, watching the cars speeding away with a cold expression.
Tachibana Hirotoshi's attitude towards his little daughter was indeed a little strange, even if she was a commodity to be sold, but after not seeing her for several years, he would always be moved by a father's feelings. Unfortunately, no, he didn't even get close to her.
It seems that until her identity is thoroughly confirmed, she will be targeted by Tachibana Hirotoshi.
After all, he is the chief of the secret service, and caution is his top priority, otherwise he would have been skinned alive. She had guessed this long ago and did not feel any regret. It would have been strange if she had hugged her head and cried with Tachibana Hiroshi the day before and expressed her feelings of father and daughter not seeing each other for many years.
After all, I've arrived in Shanghai and am living under the same roof with Hirotoshi Tachibana and Kawana Tachibana, which is much better than I expected.
