Chapter 1455, Chapter 1464: Did you hide mine?!

The Nagayama couple have been somewhat troubled these past few days.

After Hana-chan saw the scene of Nagayama Ren urinating, the little girl became curious about her brother's certain organs and kept asking about them!

"Why does my brother have one, but I don't?!"

The night before, Natsuka glared angrily at Naoki Nagayama.

"Dad, did you hide mine?!"

"Ah, this."

Naoki Nagayama scratched his head and could only manage a weak reply.

"Flower jam. This flower jam is for girls; girls don't have it."

"Why aren't there any girls?!"

"This is something you were born with; this is unique to this person."

"Then I don't want to be a girl anymore!"

Xia Hua, having learned it from somewhere, put her hands on her hips and said to Nagayama Naoki and Akina,

"I want to be a boy, Mom and Dad, give me back my boy!"

".Forehead."

Naoki Nagayama was at his wit's end and looked up at Akina for help, but at that moment Akina turned her head away while holding Ren-chan. She didn't want to get involved in such a troublesome matter!

Actually, she herself didn't know how to explain it to the child.

"Flower sauce~"

Having no other choice, Naoki Nagayama hugged Natsuka tightly and then changed the subject.

"But if I don't become a girl, I can't wear my pretty pink dress anymore!"

"?Why?"

"Because boys can't wear pink."

"."

The little guy frowned, as if he disagreed, or perhaps he was thinking about something.

"And we can't wear cute butterfly hair clips anymore either."

".Why?"

"Because boys can't wear cute things!"

"And... I can't play with my new Barbie doll either!"

"Is it because boys can't play with it?!"

Yes, that's right.

Are boys really that pitiful?

"Yes, yes, boys are so pitiful, they can't play with so many beautiful things!"

Naoki Nagayama sensed that his daughter's thinking had finally changed, and breathed a sigh of relief before asking:

"So, Hana-chan, do you still want to be a boy?!"

"."

The little one frowned, glanced at his younger brother in his mother's arms, and showed a look of pity.

"Then I don't want to be a boy."

"Oh, that's good, that's good."

Naoki Nagayama and Akina both breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the matter had been perfectly resolved! However, what the little girl said next sent chills down their spines!

Xia Hua looked up at her father and pleaded:

"Dad, since boys are so pitiful, why don't we rip off my little brother's clothes and let him be a girl too?!"

"Pulling it off?!?"

Upon hearing this, Naoki Nagayama's eyes widened, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond!

Akina, on the other hand, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, Naoki-san, what should we do now?! Should we pluck it off?"

Meanwhile, in her arms, Nagayama Ren looked at his mother with an innocent expression. If he could speak, he would probably say something like, "How can someone with a 36-degree mouth say such cold words!"

"."

After a moment of silence, and a few seconds of thought, Naoki Nagayama lowered his head to look at Natsuka and slowly began to speak.

"Hana-chan, let Ren-chan decide for herself when she grows up that it hurts to pull it off, okay?!"

"."

Xiaoxia Hua nodded as if she understood, but her eyes kept glancing at Yongshan Ren's lower body, as if she was pondering something.

At this moment, although Nagayama Ren was too old to even hold his urine, he still felt a chill in his lower body, and his little mouth twitched as he started crying again, prompting Akina to quickly comfort him.

So the next day, according to Akina and Nonaka Mari's observations, Natsuka tried to sneak up on Ren several times while he was changing her diaper, and she even had toy scissors and a syringe, as if she wanted to do something to her little brother.

That evening, Akina earnestly told Naoki Nagayama;

"Naoki-san, I think Hana-chan might have played with too many nurse toys."

"what happened?"

Naoki Nagayama found it a bit strange. A nurse toy was a good thing; it could teach children to be nurses, especially to cultivate a little girl's kindness. This was a toy he and Akina bought together!

"Did Hana-chan poke Eitarou or Nyan-taro with a syringe?!"

In Naoki Nagayama's opinion, the worst that could happen is playing house with cats and dogs!

"no."

Akina's expression was a little strange.

"I think she wants to get Lian-chan to undergo gender reassignment surgery!"

".ha?!"

"The flower sauce is holding scissors!"

Naoki Nagayama was speechless.

The next morning, before she had even had breakfast, Tsuruko arrived at Yamaoin!

Naturally, I spent a long, sweet time with Xia Hua after she woke up in the morning, until breakfast was ready.

"Tsuruko, why are you here so early?"

After settling the two children for breakfast, Akina asked,

We're not in a hurry.

"Hum~"

Tsuruko was very satisfied with the delicious breakfast prepared by her professional nanny.

Even though she's already a wealthy woman, she hasn't reached the point where she can afford a professional nanny. If she wants to eat something nice, she can only go to a restaurant or order food directly.

"If you're going to come see the kids, you should at least earn enough for breakfast!"

Tsuruko unceremoniously took another bite of tempura. At only twenty years old, her metabolism was vigorous, and she wasn't worried about gaining weight at all.

Seeing this, Xia Hua next to her also developed a big appetite and imitated her aunt, taking a big bite of the shrimp paste.

"Haha, yes, eat the flower sauce in big bites, that's it!"

Tsuruko patted Hana-chan's head.

"After we've eaten, Auntie will take you to chase after Eitaro!"

In fact, when children spend a short time together, they often get along very well with Tsuruko because of the novelty, sometimes even more so than with Akina.

Seeing how familiar the two were, Naoki Nagayama felt much more at ease letting Tsuruko take care of the two children today. However, there was something Naoki Nagayama felt he should tell Tsuruko!

"Tsuruko, there's something you should keep in mind when you bring the flower jam and lotus jam today."

"What?!" Tsuruko said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I'm very good with kids!"

"It's not your problem."

Naoki Nagayama put down his chopsticks and looked at Natsuka, who was still eating.

"It's Flower Sauce. Lately, Flower Sauce has been very curious about Lotus Sauce's gender and always wants to remove the 'Lotus' from it."

"puff"

Upon hearing this, Tsuruko couldn't help but almost spit out the food in her mouth.

I quickly wiped myself with a napkin, then took a sip of orange juice to calm my nerves.

"What?! You want to castrate Lianjiang?!"

"cough cough"

Akina quickly coughed twice to remind them.

"Tsuruko, don't use such language in front of children!"

"Ooh ooh~"

Tsuruko nodded, still looking at Naoki Nagayama with great curiosity.

"Ni-chan, are you serious?!"

"Sigh... She's just a kid. She's already developing a sense of gender, and Hana-chan is quite mischievous. Even after I explained it to her, she's still very curious."

Naoki Nagayama covered his face, nodded, and then instructed Tsuruko.

"Tsuruko, don't let Hana-chan and Ren-chan be alone together for now."

"."

Tsuruko subconsciously turned to look at her niece, thinking that her brother might be making a mountain out of a molehill.

While eating, Xiaoxia looked up at Hezi with a sweet smile, which reassured Hezi even more!

Right? How could my adorable niece possibly be a black wolf in sheep's clothing?

"Okay. I'll keep an eye on it."

Naoki Nagayama and Akina both nodded.

Actually, the two weren't too worried. There were always two pairs of eyes watching the child at Yamazakura-in. Besides Tsuruko, there were also the two nannies, Nonaka Mari and Nakagawa Anka, and further back, there was the butler, Afuku, and even Eitaro and Nyantaro could be counted.

Nothing will happen to the child.

After finishing breakfast, Naoki Nagayama and Akina needed to tidy up and get dressed.

I'm all ready to get ready and head to the anime convention for our date!

A sign hanging at the entrance reads "Cultural Policy Research Office," and this is Shuichi Itō's office.

Meanwhile, in his office, Shuichi Itō was also giving instructions to his researchers:

"Today is an important day for the cultural demonstration zone, so I want to personally witness the animation festival."

"I need two people to come with me to document the situation at the scene!"

Upon hearing the director's words, the two employees below immediately raised their hands. "Going to the anime convention with our boss! It's a company-funded team building activity!"

"Since everyone is so enthusiastic, then I'll call on someone."

Shuichi Itō smiled and nodded, then decisively selected the two researchers closest to him: Masamichi Tanageki and Kazuma Matsuno.

"Matsuno, and Tagami, just the two of you!"

"Hi!!" X2

The two immediately cheered, while the others were slightly disappointed, but they were also very understanding.

Such a good thing would naturally be given to one's trusted subordinates!

"Matsuno, go get the car."

Shuichi Itō gave the order.

"We'll also pick up Representative Noda on the way. He's done a lot in the planning of the cultural district, so it's time we went to see the results!"

"Hey, I get it!"

After listening, Matsuno Kazuma immediately nodded and then went to drive the bus assigned to his department.

In the office, Shuichi Itō and Masamichi Tanage were preparing some documents about the anime festival's event schedule, intending to take them to the anime festival to observe the proceedings.

Just then, the phone rang.

After answering the call, Itō Shuichi responded a few times and then said to Tanagami Masamichi:

"Tanami, the Prime Minister wants me to go over and give a report. Take the documents and come with me."

"Huh? Me?"

Masamichi Tanagawa was taken aback. Reporting directly to the Prime Minister was a huge leap for her!

"Ha, don't be so surprised, and don't panic when you're giving the report!"

Shuichi Itō patted her shoulder in fear.

"After this anime convention, we'll be meeting with the Prime Minister even more often!"

Once the animation festival is a success and the strategy of building a nation based on culture officially enters the legislative process, this office is going to become quite lively!

Upon arriving at the Prime Minister's office, Shuichi Itō and Masamichi Tanagami, led by their secretary Jutsuto Kawabata, went directly inside.

Upon seeing Doi Tagako, who was processing official documents, Itō Shuichi bowed and greeted her.

"Doi-san"

"Ah, Shuichi-san is here."

Doi Tagako smiled. She had heard a lot about the anime festival these past few days and knew that this event was going to be a big deal.

"The anime festival opens today, right?"

"Hi!"

Itō nods.

"I'm preparing to go with my subordinates to conduct an on-site inspection and obtain firsthand information."

Anime festivals are somewhat different from other large-scale events. Other events, such as film festivals and art exhibitions, usually attract important celebrities and feature grand opening ceremonies, making them a carnival for celebrities and the media.

However, anime festivals are more like temple fairs or carnivals, and are actually more attended by people from the lower and middle classes.

"Haha, it really is Shuichi-san!"

Doi Tagako nodded in satisfaction, feeling that she had done a very good job as her subordinate.

"Could you give me a brief overview of the anime festival's schedule?"

"Hey, let Researcher Tanami report on that to you. She's done the research herself."

Shuichi Itō pushed his subordinates to the front.

At this moment, Masamichi Tanagami immediately reported respectfully:

"Prime Minister Doi, this year's Japan Anime Festival will last for a week, and the main program is divided into three stages: 'opening,' 'interactive trade,' and 'closing.'"

The opening ceremony will be held inside the main venue, featuring anime-related idols. The closing ceremony will also take place at the main venue, with performances and a lucky draw.

"The main interactive trading phase will continue throughout the entire animation festival. During this period..."

Throughout the entire anime festival, there will be cosplay interactions, appreciation and trading of original comics, auctions of anime merchandise, small handshake events with various idols, performances, and more – it's a lively and bustling event from start to finish!

As Doi Tagako listened to the report, she was calculating the economic benefits it could generate, the number of tourists it could attract, and more importantly, whether the anime festival could be held year-round or replicated.

"Shuichi-san, at first glance, the Japan Anime Festival seems to have a lot of potential."

Doi Tagako said,

Do you think this kind of activity would be possible in other cities?

"Mr. Doi, if we want to hold anime festivals in other cities, we first need to cultivate an interested audience..."

Itō Shuichi had clearly thought this through, and he spoke at length.

"Our 'culture-based nation' strategy is a national policy that will last for ten or twenty years, aiming to create a series of cultural industries. In addition to animation, there are also Japanese festivals, temple fairs, and cultural performances."

If implemented, similar cultural events will become a regular occurrence in various Japanese cities.

"I believe that in the future, anime festivals will be held in every city, whether they are large or small! They may even become a cultural calling card for Japan!"

"Um"

Doi Tagako nodded in satisfaction.

"That's good"

As she spoke, she looked at Shuichi Itō and Masamichi Tagami beside him:

"So today, I'd like to ask you all to go and see for yourselves the results of the anime festival."

"If the results are good, I will ask the Ministry of Education to increase its support for the next event."

"Hi!" X2

Tanaka Masayuki finally breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the office:

"Shuichi-san, it seems the Prime Minister is quite mild-mannered!"

"."

Itō Shuichi glanced at his subordinates and shook his head.

"The Prime Minister is mild-mannered? That's because you came with me!"

Are all women who rise to high positions in politics gentle and strong? How could a gentle person possibly gain a foothold in a political arena dominated by men?!

Shuichi Itō had heard that Doi Tagako could make her subordinates cry when she scolded them!

"Alright, alright, our main focus today is the anime festival."

"Let's get going now."

Shuichi Itō quickened his pace.

"Maybe we'll even see the Cat's Eye sisters' opening performance!"

"Hi!"
