Tokyo, Shinjuku.
Toji Fushiguro was walking with Megumi Fushiguro and Fushiguro Tsumiki on their way to the commercial district.
He hadn't had any classes for the past few days, and Gojo Satoru, now accompanied by Choso, no longer sought him out for fights, so he had been quite idle recently.
Originally, Toji Fushiguro had planned to watch TV at home to pass the time.
However, Fushiguro Minako announced that she was doing a thorough cleaning today, and his presence at home would be a hindrance.
So, she entrusted the two children to him, asking him to take them out to play.
As they walked, Megumi Fushiguro looked towards a park by the roadside.
More precisely, he looked at the swings in the park.
They had been walking with Toji Fushiguro for a long time; Megumi Fushiguro was fine, but Fushiguro Tsumiki was clearly a bit tired.
"Want to play on the swing?"
Toji Fushiguro noticed Megumi Fushiguro suddenly stop and turned to ask.
"No need, just sitting for a bit will be fine."
Megumi Fushiguro recalled a scene from last year.
Once last year, Toji Fushiguro had taken Megumi Fushiguro out to play.
Megumi Fushiguro was a bit dejected to see the swings all occupied.
However, Toji Fushiguro took out the Ten Thousand Mile Lock and directly tied a makeshift swing on a nearby tree.
Then, Megumi Fushiguro began to fly up/down/up/down in Toji Fushiguro's hands.
The surrounding children, seeing Megumi Fushiguro constantly flying into the sky, all enviously went to their fathers.
"Dad, I want to play that."
"No, it's too dangerous."
"Is that child okay? Should we call the police?"
...The children's requests were sternly rejected by their parents, who then immediately took their children and left.
"Huh?"
Toji Fushiguro looked in confusion at the suddenly empty park.
"The swings are free, let's go play on those."
Toji Fushiguro didn't ponder why these people suddenly left.
He just saw the swings were free, so he untied Megumi Fushiguro and took him to play on a normal swing.
"No, no thanks."
At this moment, Megumi Fushiguro put on a poker face, trying to suppress his wildly beating heart.
'Swings, so terrifying.'
Megumi Fushiguro thought, trembling.
The memory ended, and Megumi Fushiguro's body involuntarily shivered.
"Tired?"
Toji Fushiguro looked at Megumi Fushiguro, then at Fushiguro Tsumiki.
Then he squatted down, picking up both children, one in each arm.
Both children instinctively hugged Toji Fushiguro's neck.
"We're almost at the restaurant. We can eat and rest then."
Toji Fushiguro had great strength, and his arm muscles were very thick.
The two children sat steadily on him.
Soon after, at the entrance of a children's amusement park.
Toji Fushiguro saw someone he hadn't seen in a long time.
"Long time no see, Toji Fushiguro."
Suguru Geto, holding a small girl in each hand, could only nod in greeting to Toji Fushiguro.
"Ah, it's you. You're that… that, weird bangs?"
Toji Fushiguro tilted his head, his eyes seemingly turning into dots.
Suguru Geto, still smiling, couldn't help but twitch an eyebrow.
'I haven't been back to High School for PE class in a long time. I guess I'll make up for it this time.'
"I am Suguru Geto. Are these your children? They're very cute."
Suguru Geto said with a smile.
"Hmm, but you, you didn't seem to have children last year, did you? They grew so big in just one year?"
#
Suguru Geto couldn't tell if Toji Fushiguro was teasing him or genuinely not thinking about anything.
"These are my adopted daughters, Nanako and Mimiko. Let's go inside and talk."
After they went inside, they ordered four children's meals and two adult meals.
The children ate happily.
"Eat slowly, don't choke. Mimiko, don't drop food outside."
Suguru Geto, one on his left and one on his right, took care of the two children who were eating heartily.
On the other hand, Toji Fushiguro was very relaxed.
He picked up a takoyaki with his fork and put it into his mouth, showing no intention of looking after the two children.
In fact, he didn't need to; Megumi Fushiguro and Fushiguro Tsumiki were eating very attentively, bite by bite.
Fushiguro Tsumiki even occasionally helped Toji Fushiguro wipe food residue from the corner of his mouth.
It was clear they were well-behaved and sensible children.
After the four children finished eating, they went to the nearby children's amusement park to play happily.
Suguru Geto also breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"I never expected your children to be so well-behaved. How do you usually teach them?"
Suguru Geto rested his chin on one hand.
He chatted with Toji Fushiguro, tilting his head.
His eyes occasionally glanced at the four little ones playing in the children's amusement park.
"I don't really manage them; they do whatever they want."
Toji Fushiguro said indifferently.
"Eh? If you don't manage them, aren't you afraid the children will get hurt?"
Suguru Geto looked at Toji Fushiguro in surprise.
"A while ago, Nanako and Mimiko were roughhousing on the bed before sleep and fell to the floor, crying for a long time. After that, I have to tell them bedtime stories and wait until they fall asleep before leaving."
"Ah, that."
Toji Fushiguro recalled Megumi Fushiguro, who used to crawl all over the bed and then fall to the floor.
Later, to prevent Megumi Fushiguro from falling off the bed and getting hurt again, he used the Ten Thousand Mile Lock to tie Megumi Fushiguro to the bed.
The next day, a new rule was added to the Fushiguro family's household rules: children must not be tied up with chains.
On the third day, Fushiguro Minako added another line to the household rules: sticking them to the wall with tape is also not allowed.
"Just take safety precautions, that's all."
Toji Fushiguro said calmly.
"Is that so? We've been active all over the world, so our living conditions aren't very stable."
In recent months, Suguru Geto had been traveling around the world with his team for charity events.
These genuine acts of kindness and the team members' occasional verbal and practical teachings of the red spirit had changed Suguru Geto a lot.
"Speaking of which, how old is Megumi?"
"Age?"
Toji Fushiguro fell into thought.
"Probably five or six, I guess."
'Probably…'
He had met people who didn't know their own age, but this was the first time he met someone who didn't know their child's age.
"Is he already that age? Has Megumi awakened his Technique?"
Suguru Geto asked.
Nanako and Mimiko had just awakened their Techniques recently.
If Megumi Fushiguro was five or six, he should also be close to Awakening his Technique.
After all, under normal circumstances, Jujutsu Sorcerers awaken their Techniques between the ages of four and six.
"Ah, it's this year. It's the Ten Shadows Technique."
Toji Fushiguro boredly stirred the drink in his cup with a spoon.
"Eh?"
Had he awakened it or not?
Fortunately, Toji Fushiguro quickly provided an explanation.
"That brat said Megumi would awaken the Ten Shadows Technique this year, and then he could be given to him for guidance."
Draining the drink in his cup, Toji Fushiguro began to boredly stare at the menu, considering whether to order more.
"What about you? What are you back for this time?"
"To attend the graduation ceremony."
Suguru Geto seemed to recall something happy, a smile appearing on his face.
"Graduation ceremony? High School has something like that?"
Toji Fushiguro raised his head in surprise.
He had been at High School for two years, and this was truly the first he'd heard of it.
There had been an entrance ceremony, where some older students spontaneously organized a welcome for the younger students.
"Eichi said he wanted to hold it, to celebrate all of us graduating, not a single one missing."
