The next day, Jin and Rhodes went around the town of Florenz to gather information, but they did not seem to get anything in particular.
However, it was curious that there were signs everywhere in the town inviting people to join the <>.
Moreover, a person who looked like a recruiter sometimes tried to approach me, and Reiko noticed it and took me by the hand and left the place ...... five times.
"I guess this is the lap of the < after all. ......"
"Yes, sir."
"If you don't mind causing trouble, I'd like to get rid of all of them."
Not now, Reiko.
Yes, if your father says so.
That's the way it went.
* * * * * *
"Well, shall we go home?"
Yes.
Jin wanted to stop by Potrock to see how Marcia's workshop was doing, but decided not to for now.
"Not until we finish the mess with the <>."
So Jin refrains from going to <> to see his descendants.
Jin, Rhodes, Reiko, Hope, and the others headed for the airport.
They pay a late fee of 1,000 dollars and take out the from the rental warehouse. The car was still in the same condition as when it was left in the warehouse.
However, the old man is probably keeping an eye on the place with his and will do something about it if there is an insolent person ......, Jin thought.
"Come on, let's go."
Jin instructed Reiko and started the <>.
"Father, are you sure the destination is the Nordic Federation?"
"No, to Horai Island."
What?
What?
Reiko and Rhodes both asked in surprise.
"Are you sure you want to take Rhodes-san to Horai Island ......?"
"Yes."
Rhodes was flustered by this statement.
"Jin, Jin-sama, are you sure you want me to go to Horai Island?"
Jin nodded.
"No, I think I'm ...... a little too late for that. I've been ...... taking care of you in many ways and I will continue to do so."
Jin held out his hand.
"Will you be a part of the second Jin family?"
Rhodes squeezes his hand tightly.
"It would be my pleasure! I would be honored, Jin-sama!"
The second Jin family is now established.
"Wow. ......"
Needless to say, Rhodes was stunned when he saw Horai Island for the first time with his own eyes.
* * * *
"Now, this is the for Rhodes."
Jin handed Rhodes a white and light blue marbled bracelet.
"Here, this is ......."
"Oh, it's the same as the ones Zion and Marikka have. It has a barrier function, a communication function, and a personal identification function.
"Oh, thank you!"
Rhodes bows deeply.
"For a long, long time ......, my grandmother has been telling me stories about it and I've been longing for it! Not only have I been invited to this Horai Island, but I've even been given a bracelet ......!"
