Chapter 763: Leaving Home
Chapter 763: Leaving Home
Yasushi was delighted that Miyuki had returned, hoping to make up for the years of neglect and correct their grandfather\'s mistakes.
Yukino, Miyuki\'s sister, was also happy about her return, although her memories of Miyuki had faded due to her young age when Miyuki left.
However, Miyuki\'s attitude towards everyone was strange. She immediately noticed that her sister had grown up to be weak-willed, but she seemed unconcerned. Her attitude toward Yasushi, her once-close brother, was also peculiar.
Their grandfather still disapproved of her and even wanted to drive her away, claiming that the family didn\'t need her.
Miyuki didn\'t get angry. Instead, she smiled warmly at their grandfather, calling him "grandpa" affectionately, and confidently decided to stay in the family.
Soon, their grandfather realized that something was amiss in the household.
The family and their workshop were gradually slipping out of his control. By the time he realized it, the entire family was under Miyuki\'s control.
Miyuki obtained all the family\'s books related to incense making and began to learn incense making on her own. Yasushi, feeling indebted to his sister, also began teaching her.
Miyuki had a natural talent for incense making, surpassing not only their grandfather but also Yasushi. In less than three years, she had surpassed Yasushi in incense making skills.
After mastering the essence of incense making, Miyuki\'s first act was to imprison Yasushi, the one who had taught her all she knew.
In her eyes, Yasushi was partly responsible for the injustices she had suffered.
It was then that Yasushi and their grandfather realized that Miyuki had become a powerful Pokémon Trainer, to the point where they had no chance of resisting her.
Yasushi was imprisoned in his own room and couldn\'t step outside. Their grandfather was completely sidelined, like a puppet controlled by Miyuki.
His sister Yukino doesn\'t care at all about what happens at home. As long as she can have a good life, she doesn\'t have a problem with whoever makes the decision in the family.
Compared with his rigid grandfather, Yukino hopes that her sister can take charge of the family.
"In fact, since Miyuki took charge of the family, Yukino lived a more carefree life, as long as she didn\'t offend Miyuki or cause trouble for her.
For example, when Yukino offended Yugua in the past, it was unforgivable in Miyuki\'s eyes, and it would bring her a lot of trouble.
Since then, their entire family and the family\'s incense industry have all been controlled by Miyuki, while their grandfather serves as her puppet, helping her maintain the facade of family harmony.
Although his grandfather wanted to resist, every time he did, Miyuki would bring him, battered and bruised, in front of their grandfather. After repeated incidents, their grandfather dared not resist anymore.
Yasushi was their grandfather\'s favorite grandson, so their grandfather couldn\'t risk his safety any longer.
During a period when Miyuki was often absent from home, their grandfather helped Yasushi escape.
Yasushi knew that Miyuki still needed their grandfather and wouldn\'t harm him, so he escaped alone. It was only when he encountered Yuga and the others that he was safe from Miyuki\'s pursuit.
Yasushi always felt indebted to Miyuki. He knew that Miyuki\'s current personality and the family\'s unfair treatment were closely related, and he bore a significant responsibility for it.
After escaping, he never thought about seeking revenge against Miyuki or competing with her for control of the family business. Instead, he chose to follow Yuga to YoYo Day Care and never revealed who had harmed him.
He believed that staying at YoYo Day Care as an ordinary employee was a good choice.
While Miyuki was imprisoned him, Yasushi realized that her temperament was unpredictable. Despite her beautiful and kind appearance in public, she was ruthless and cunning behind closed doors. Otherwise, she wouldn\'t have tortured him repeatedly in the past.
She harbored resentment, not only towards their grandfather but also towards him, her incompetent brother.
So that\'s why he tell Yuga that he wanted to leave YoYo Day Care.
After listening to Yasushi\'s story, Yuga couldn\'t help but feel that their grandfather had gone too far. Not only did he prevent Miyuki from becoming an incense maker, but he also stripped her of her qualifications as a Pokémon Trainer. It was no wonder that Miyuki had become twisted and extreme.
Being grandchildren, the stark difference in treatment was hard for Miyuki to accept, and she harbored deep resentment.
Yuga believed that if you didn\'t stand up when needed, you would be extinguished in silence. Miyuki had given their grandfather a vivid lesson.
"You can rest assured staying here. I promise you won\'t have any trouble," Yuga assured Yasushi.
Although this was originally their family\'s business, and Miyuki\'s actions might be twisted and extreme, Yuga couldn\'t afford to be indifferent, given the importance of his business.
"But..."
Yasushi hesitated.
"Oh, no \'buts.\' I told you to stay, so stay. Why worry about this and that? I\'m not afraid, so what are you afraid of!" Yuga impatiently interrupted Yasushi, who could only nod in agreement.
"All right, go back to work. Don\'t stand around here foolishly," Yuga waved his hand dismissively to Yasushi.
Meanwhile, in another part of the building, Windy had brought James to his own room. James looked around curiously.
"Is this your room, Windy?"
Windy nodded silently.
"Yeah... it\'s really nice."
James used to live in a mansion as well, but ever since he left home to join Team Rocket, his living conditions had taken a nosedive. Now, seeing Windy\'s room, he genuinely felt that it was much better than what he had in Team Rocket.
"Windy, are you taking care of the Pokémon here as part of your job?"
James was curious about Windy\'s job and was interested in the Pokémon at YoYo Day Care.
"No, my job doesn\'t have much to do with the Pokémon. It\'s more related to the network," Windy replied casually.
"Oh, I see. Well, you\'ve always been interested in these things."
Hearing that Windy\'s job didn\'t involve Pokémon, James felt a bit disappointed. He was quite interested in Pokémon and had hoped Windy could show him around.
"What about you? Why did you come to the Hoenn region?" Windy asked.
"I... I ran away from home," James answered hesitantly, deliberately not mentioning that he had joined Team Rocket.
Although James was currently wearing a Team Rocket uniform, Windy had no knowledge of Team Rocket, so he couldn\'t guess that James had joined an unlawful organization.
"Why would you run away from home all of a sudden?" Windy was surprised to hear this.
Unlike Windy\'s awkward situation, James was the legitimate heir of the Sasaki family, so it was hard to imagine why he would run away from home.
"Um, it\'s a long story," James said vaguely, not wanting to explain the whole situation.
James was wearing a Team Rocket uniform, but Windy was unaware of Team Rocket\'s existence, so he couldn\'t have guessed that James had joined an illegal organization.
"Why would you suddenly run away from home?" Windy was surprised to hear this.
Unlike Windy\'s situation, James was the legitimate heir of the Sasaki family, so it was difficult to understand why he would leave home like this.
"Well, it\'s a long story," James replied vaguely, not wanting to go into details.
