There are only a few days left until the Unagi Rice Operation.
And recently, Uesugi Yui hasn't had a good appetite.
Obviously, this is due to the Unagi Rice Operation.
Uesugi Yui has been eating much less than usual, even the classic dish of Yukino, her beloved sister, the Braised Beef and Potatoes, she can't eat much of it.
At the same time, her sleep has become restless.
She often wakes up in the middle of the night, drenched in cold sweat.
In the past, she used to eat and sleep well until the alarm clock rang.
But now, she is restless, unable to sleep.
The Unagi Rice Operation is really not safe enough.
Although Uesugi Yui once recognized Chongzong, trusted Chongzong, and knew that Chongzong is very capable.
But this time, Chongzong's abilities aren't strong enough to make her feel at ease.
A few kids voluntarily going to pick a fight with criminals, and even going deep behind enemy lines, if the operation fails and they are caught, who knows what will happen.
And there is no contingency plan.
If any unexpected situation arises, can they really handle it smoothly?
Her family is just an ordinary working-class family, what kind of trouble would it bring them if something were to happen?
The more she thinks about these things, the more anxious Uesugi Yui becomes.
-No, I can't.
-No, no, no, I still need to prepare an escape plan.
Uesugi Yui, unable to sleep in the middle of the night, tosses and turns in bed, and finally sits on the bed quietly contemplating, and eventually makes a decision.
She thinks about the people around her who can help, and in the end, Uesugi Yui chooses Dojou Kazuaki, the father of Katagiri Mai, the police officer.
For minors, the so-called "adults" hold a lot of credibility in their identity alone.
In addition, Dojou Kazuaki has always been dependable and reliable, even if he encounters a situation that is difficult to solve legally, he would try to handle it privately as an ordinary person.
The issue is whether to inform Chongzong about asking for Dojou Kazuaki's help.
-Chongzong would definitely object.
Uesugi Yui knows this.
Uesugi Yui knows what Chongzong is worried about. If Dojou Kazuaki opposes this operation, not only would he not be able to help, but it would also seriously jeopardize the operation.
And the chances of this happening are high, the risk is too great to bear.
Come to think of it, if she were to secretly seek Dojou Kazuaki's help and end up messing things up, Chongzong would definitely resent her.
Uesugi Yui worries in her mind.
However, when she borrowed the communicator from Katagiri Mai, it was also through Dojou Kazuaki's connections.
Coincidentally, this time she needs to return the communicator (since Manranyama Souren has provided a better one), so she can take this opportunity to talk about it.
Uesugi Yui no longer hesitates and firmly decides.
The next day, Uesugi Yui called Katagiri Mai in the early morning to confirm that both she and Dojou Kazuaki were at home, and then she went out with the communicator.
After arriving at the Katagiri's house, as soon as Uesugi Yui stepped inside, she saw Katagiri Mai and Dojou Kazuaki welcoming her.
On Dojou Kazuaki's shoulder, there is a cute young girl named Dojou Mei.
This surprised Uesugi Yui a bit, considering she was just here to return something (in name only) and she's not anyone important.
It's a bit of an exaggeration for the whole family to mobilize to welcome her.
"Don't just stand there at the door, come in quickly." (Dojou Kazuaki)
"Big sister, come in quickly." (Dojou Mei)
Meanwhile, Katagiri Mai, who is not good with words, has already gone back inside to prepare tea.
"Uh... alright." (Uesugi Yui)
Although it's awkward, Uesugi Yui still maintains a polite and friendly smile as she follows Dojou Kazuaki into the house.
