Miss Kaori's machete threat successfully kept a certain scumbag on edge for a while. After thinking carefully, he felt that although Little Arrogant's threat sounded terrifying, opportunities often came with risks—Hayakawa Kashi coming to knife him tomorrow might mean that Little Arrogant would soon come to see him, right?
Hold steady, we can win!
The Higashino family finished dinner and began to hand out New Year's money to little Koseisai and Shirakawa Sawahei. The old scumbag was, of course, too embarrassed to accept the money, but considering that in the eyes of the elders, as long as you haven't found a job and become independent, you're still considered a child, he could only helplessly accept the New Year's money in the end.
The money wasn't much, just a bonus, but for Higashino Seira, it was a rare source of pocket money for the entire year. She immediately ran back to her room to save it after receiving it.
