"That's enough. We have wine, and the beef hot pot is also cooked..." Otae said, holding her chin in thought, "The rest is just to give some Christmas gifts to the children. "
"And Santa Claus!" Seita raised his hands and shouted excitedly.
"Tch!" Kagura, who was lying on the kotatsu next to him with a vinegar kombu in her mouth and playing TS in boredom, said disdainfully, "Only a kid will be excited about Christmas and some kind of old man who invades illegally. I feel nothing-aru."
As she spoke, Kagura yawned, "Dinner hasn't started yet-aru? I really want to finish eating early and go back to bed..."
"No, Kagura-chan, Kawaki-san hasn't arrived yet." Shinpachi persuaded him earnestly, "After all, it's the Christmas party organized by Kawaki-san."
"It seems that he went to prepare a Christmas gift for you." Tsukuyo glanced at Kagura and explained lightly.
"I wonder if Kawaki-sama has prepared a gift for us." A Hyakka said excitedly.
"That doesn't matter, as long as Kawakisama is willing to accept my gift, that's enough!" Another Hyakka shouted excitedly, "My body is my Christmas gift to Kawaki-sama!"
"Go away! How could Kawaki-sama accept a Christmas gift like yours?He should have accepted mine!"
"No, mine!"
A group of Hyakka members quarreled over this issue.
"Ha, it's boring~" Kagura yawned again, "Why is everyone so excited about such boring festivals-aru? Why does even the one who spends 365 days in his room come? That little loser OTAKU who is playing games in his room is also interested in this kind of festival? I don't understand at all. There is no need for gifts or anything like that. Just give me a few hundred million or so pocket money and I'll buy it myself-aru. From now on, I can change my name to Sanzenin Kagura."
"Well... before changing the name, you should bring out the characteristics of the voice actor first..." Shinpachi complained silently.
"By the way, why isn't Gin-san here?" Hasegawa asked in confusion, "He shouldn't miss this opportunity to drink for free, right?"
"Indeed, Gin-san shouldn't be absent from such a party," Shinpachi murmured, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Gin-san since afternoon today, and I don't know where he went."
"He must have been drinking somewhere again. Don't worry about that kind of idle guy." Otae replied casually, "But having said that, I can't contact Kyu-chan, and I also want Kyu-chan to come to such a lively party."
"Maybe the Yagyu family also has its own Christmas party." Shinpachi analyzed.
"It's also possible..." Otae nodded.
What everyone didn't know was that Umibouzu, who was hiding in the grass in the yard, felt like a dog sh*tting.
'Although it does seem to be a Christmas party, but... this atmosphere is too harmonious, right? This kind of party is gorgeous enough, right? Should I really go out in this situation?' Umibouzu thought to himself, 'By the way, why does Kagura-chan, who is so gorgeous at the party, look unhappy? Why?'
"Hey, sister Kagura, didn't you write Santa the gift you wanted?" Haruta asked Kagura, "You definitely write, right?"
"There is no Santa Claus in this world-aru." Kagura was still playing with the TS in her hand and said back without raising her head, "Only a child like you will believe that there is such a thing-aru. I am a very mature adult, and I am different from a brat like you."
'I see! I see!' Umibouzu suddenly realized something and secretly said with joy, 'I already know it! Since you've never seen Santa Claus, you don't believe in his existence from the bottom of your heart. That's why you feel so disappointed, that's why you show that expression! It's the duty of parents to give their children dreams! This is my chance! Though it will be a little lonely not being able to be a father, if it's for her to have good memories...'
While Umibouzu was thinking this, he accidentally stepped on a dead branch under his feet.
Snap...
"Ah?" Shinpachi turned his head and looked in the direction of the yard, "Is there anyone in the backyard?"
"Huh? What, it can't be a thief!" Otae covered her mouth, somewhat startled.
"Don't worry," Tsukuyo said calmly, then glanced at the members of the Hyakka standing nearby.
In an instant, all the Hyakka angrily pulled out their kunai and hurled them towards the source of the noise.
Then, Umibouzu jumped out of the grass with a head full of kunai in his head and a bloodied face. He held the gift bag in one hand and raised his other hand to greet everyone cordially.
"Merry Christmas! Hahaha! Sorry to keep you waiting, everyone. Santa Claus is here to bring you joy~" Umibouzu said warmly, then reached up and pulled out each kunai from his head. He continued with a feigned calmness, "Even if you're excited to see the real Santa Claus, there's no need to welcome me with kunai. Santa Claus would be quite distressed. Ahahaha..."
Immediately afterward, Umibouzu looked at the surprised expressions on the faces of everyone, and secretly laughed a few times, 'Hmph, Kagura is already scared, yes, Santa Claus really exists! Your Santa Claus is here now!'
Immediately after, Umibouzu looked at the surprised expressions on everyone's faces and chuckled to himself, 'Hehehe, Kagura seems to be really scared. Yes, Santa Claus does exist! Your very own Santa Claus is right here!'
At this moment, Kagura's expression gradually shifted from disbelief to joy, then from joy to touch. Finally, Kagura stood up, tears streaming down her face, and rushed towards the courtyard.
'At last! Success!' Umibouzu rejoiced inwardly, "This reaction... undoubtedly a success! But aren't you a little too excited? Are you really that moved? Tears can't stop flowing... No, after all, she's just a child. Children always act like this..."
Thinking this, Umibouzu smiled somewhat relievedly. Then, he opened his arms, ready to welcome Kagura.
'Come on, the real Santa Claus is here. Feel free to indulge with Santa Claus!' Watching Kagura getting closer and closer, Umibouzu's eyes also became a bit moist, 'That's enough! Pour out all your grievances and complaints to Santa Claus!'
However... things took a slightly unexpected turn for Umibouzu, because Kagura didn't throw herself into his arms, but instead threw herself to his side.
Seeing Kagura embracing Kouka, Kawaki smiled and said, "How is it, Kagura? This is the Christmas gift prepared by uncle for you."
"Super amazing!" Kagura rubbed against Kouka's chest, continuing to act spoiled, "Little uncle is the real Santa Claus!"
"Ko-Kouka!" Seeing Kouka beside him, Umibouzu was at a loss, "W-why are you here?! By the way, what's the real Santa Claus? This brat hasn't even changed his clothes! Can such a guy be called Santa Claus?!"
"But then again, who are these two over here?" Kawaki turned his head to look at Umibouzu and Gintoki, "Are you guys here to perform?"
"Two?" Umibouzu hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned his head. Instantly, he felt even worse, as he saw another "Santa Claus" standing on his other side.
"Another Santa Claus?!" Umibouzu and Gintoki exclaimed simultaneously.
"I don't know-aru," Kagura wiped away her tears, looked up at Kawaki, "Isn't it arranged by you, little uncle?"
"No, I didn't arrange anything like this," Kawaki shrugged, then suddenly remembered something, "Wait! Are these two thieves?! Tsukuyo! Call the police immediately!"
"Wait!!" Umibouzu and Gintoki both raised their hands to stop, "I am Santa Claus!"
"Did you guys really not hire performers?" Kawaki looked at the people in front of the house in confusion.
Everyone shook their heads at the same time.
"I see, I got it." Kawaki nodded to himself, then smiled at Kagura and Kouka, who was still holding Kagura tenderly, "Kagura-chan, Sister Kouka, please go inside first. Leave this to me."
After hearing this, Kouka glanced lightly at Umibouzu beside her, then walked towards the house with Kagura.
"Uh, sorry about that." Kawaki smiled somewhat awkwardly at the bald Santa Claus and the silver Santa Claus, then took out his wallet from his bosom and took out a ten thousand yen bill, handing it to the two, "We seem not to have called for this kind of performance. You must have come to the wrong place. But I can't bear to see you guys running for nothing. Take this money, both of you, remember to share it properly. We're having a Christmas party here, and it's not very convenient to keep you here since we're all acquaintances. Take the money and leave quickly."
Looking at the money stuffed into his hand, Umibouzu was stunned for a moment. But immediately after, the money in his hand was taken by Gintoki and stuffed into his pocket.
"Uh, although I don't know what's going on with this guy, I'm the real Santa Claus!" Gintoki spoke up.
'No way! Leaving in this situation would be too embarrassing! I even set up an ambush from this chilly evening...' Thinking this, Gintoki glanced at the bald Santa Claus beside him, 'Now I can only grit my teeth and insist that I'm Santa Claus! No matter what happens, I have to stick to it!'
"Excuse me..." Umibouzu, pretending to be puzzled, looked at Gintoki and said, "Are you a member of some volunteer group?"
"No! I'm the real Santa Claus!" Gintoki insisted, "By the way, who are you? Why are you dressed like this around here? Are you from the neighborhood children's association?"
