It wasn't until May stood dumbly for several minutes, wanting to speak but unable to find the right words, that Dojou Kazuaki noticed that his eldest daughter had come back. Meanwhile, Mei remained engrossed in her social animation, completely oblivious.

"Uh, May, how long have you been back?... Why are you standing there like an idiot, is there something you want to say?" Dojou Kazuaki stood up.

"Well... I have a favor to ask of you." Although they became family when their mother remarried, Katagiri Mai still had to address Dojou Kazuaki as "uncle" and couldn't see him as her father. Dojou Kazuaki accepted this and didn't make any demands on Katagiri Mai. So even now, Katagiri Mai remained Katagiri Mai.

Now, his eldest daughter who had always been indifferent and emotionless was actually coming to him with a request. Dojou Kazuaki was surprised, and even felt a slight excitement. It was as if a veteran soldier who had been idle for years had suddenly received an order. He had never known how to fulfill his role as a father, but he felt like he had finally seen an opportunity.

"Go ahead, just say it! Whatever it is, I'll do my best to help you achieve it!" Due to his excitement, Dojou Kazuaki's voice unintentionally became twice as loud (though Mei was still absorbed in her social animation).

Seeing Dojou Kazuaki suddenly becoming so emotional, Katagiri Mai took a step back in fear. Dojou Kazuaki also realized that he had become overly excited and awkwardly smiled, running his hand through his hair as he also took a step back. What could have been a tense atmosphere was diffused because of this comical and awkward scene.

Dojou Kazuaki burst into hearty laughter, and Mai couldn't help but giggle softly. (Though Mei was still absorbed in the devilishly addictive social animation.)

"Anyway, just tell me quickly, what is it?" "Well... it's our senpai who needs a pair of walkie-talkies, with a minimum effective range of... two hundred meters." Obtaining a set of walkie-talkies wasn't difficult for Dojou Kazuaki. However, despite his doting and nearly spoiling his daughter, he didn't immediately agree. What concerned him was why this senpai was asking May for the walkie-talkies instead of someone else. And the fact that there was even a requirement for an effective distance made him curious. "Who is this senpai?" "Hmm? It's Uesugi-senpai, someone you've met before." Katagiri Mai didn't fully understand why Dojou Kazuaki was asking about which senpai it was, but she answered without hesitation. There was no need to hide it. And her straightforward answer dispelled any suspicions Dojou Kazuaki had. Oh, so it's Uesugi Yui. That explains why she sought May. And Uesugi Yui is a good person, very responsible. Helping her with this request wouldn't be a problem. Dojou Kazuaki had initially worried that May was being asked by some strange person, but now all doubts were gone.

"Okay, I'll go out now and bring it back for you tonight."

When it comes to taking action, Dojou Kazuaki is really exceptional as a father.

He's always ready to leave on a whim.

"Ma Yi, can I ask you to cook dinner tonight?"

"Sure."

"Kazuaki, Dad is going out for a while. Can you and your sister watch cartoons at home?"

"Okay!"

Casually picking up his suit jacket from the sofa, Dojou Kazuaki went out like a gust of wind.

His daughters are his first motivation.
