Tokyo people don't talk about Wude

Chapter 264 261. Her Sun
On Saturday morning, the two went to the outskirts of Chiba together.

According to Xiaojing's information, a large-scale exhibition called "COMIC CON" is being held here.

In layman’s terms, it’s a “comic exhibition”.

Xiaojing said that he was a fan of anime for the time being. He had always wanted to participate in the comic exhibition here after coming to Wano Country, but he repeatedly gave up due to his autistic personality.

"COMIC CON" is the largest comic convention in Tokyo and is held every year in the summer.

The exhibition site was as crowded as any tourist attraction in Tokyo in August. When you walk in, you will see a colorful ocean, with all kinds of exquisite comic works and peripheral products lined up on the counter. Even Kyushu Cheng was shocked.

In addition to ordinary tourists, there is also a large group called Coser, who wear fancy and exaggerated costumes and play characters from animation and game works.

"There are so many people." Xiao Jing felt a little uncomfortable.

Since she was pulled out by Cheng Ge for "overcoming social fear training", this is the first time she has been to such a densely populated place.

The noisy people around her and the tourists bumping into her from time to time all made her blood pressure rise and her heart beat rapidly.

"Keep your head up and be bold."

At this moment, Kyushu Cheng's voice entered her ears, filling her withered heart with courage again.

Yes, thanks to Brother Cheng, she was able to walk out of the house again, become cheerful, and even her dream of going to the Comic Exhibition came true.
At this point, she should feel happy and joyful. How could she shrink back in a place like this and let down Brother Cheng's efforts and her own efforts?
"But." Xiao Jing raised his head with a gloomy expression, raised the corners of his mouth with his fingers, and turned the timidity on his face into a smile:
"I know! I'm very happy to be able to come to this place! Thank you, Brother Cheng!"

Seeing that Xiaojing's mood had stabilized, the two started wandering around the exhibition.

As she said, Xiaojing is indeed an anime fan.

Although Kyushu Cheng understands these things, he is not particularly in-depth. For example, like many laymen, he would call all female characters with cyan twintails "Hatsune Miku".

But Xiaojing knew these things very well, took to the exhibition like a duck to water, and seemed to really like it.

"Hey~ That's it!"

She can often see something that interests her—perhaps a nearby stall or a Cosplayer—and her eyes will keep shining.

Following her gaze, Kyushu Cheng saw a girl wearing a pink and white Lolita dress and holding a short staff. She should be a cosplayer for an anime character.

"This is Madoka from "Magic Knight Girl". I didn't expect to see such an old cosplayer these days!" Xiao Jing was obviously very excited.

"Are you going to chat with her or take a photo?" Kyushu asked with a smile.

"But..." Xiao Jing lowered his head again, showing timidity.

"Don't be afraid, just go and talk to her." Kyushu Cheng put the long-handled umbrella in his hand on the ground:

"I will watch you here. If you are in danger, just come back and ask me for help, how about that?"

"Yeah, I know!" Having said this, Xiao Jing took a deep breath and made up his mind to walk towards the magical girl.

Xiaojing finally came to the girl with trembling steps and struck up a conversation with her.

Kyushu Cheng didn't listen carefully to what the two of them said, but five minutes later, Xiao Jing ran back with joy, and even took out his mobile phone to show off:
"Brother Cheng, I took a photo with her! She is so nice!"

In the photo, Xiao Jing smiles very shyly, while the magical girl shows a confident smile, probably showing the character's signature moves.

"Yes, not everyone is malicious, so there is no need to have excessive fear." Jiuzhou Cheng returned the phone with satisfaction:
"Many people are capable of friendly communication, so don't be afraid of them. Look them in the eyes and say what you want to say. Even if they are rejected by the other party, it is definitely not something to be ashamed of."

"Yes, I know, Brother Cheng!" Xiao Jing nodded with a smile and brushed the hair beside his ears.

Obviously Kyushu Makoto is the same age as her, but in her opinion, Kyushu Makoto is more like a big brother, who can protect her and guide her when necessary.

The two of them walked around the exhibition for a day, and with Kyushu Cheng following behind to give her the inside scoop, Xiao Jing gradually became bolder and more open-minded than usual.

"Brother Cheng, look, I took a photo with that person! He looks so handsome in cosplay!"

"Brother Cheng, shall we go to that VR experience center?"

"It looks like there's a book signing there. Wow, it's Mr. Quan! Brother Cheng, can I... let me go and line up!"

Kyushu Cheng also had a great time. Although he is not a senior enthusiast in this area, he is still a young person, so he naturally likes this kind of gathering full of youthful energy.

Unconsciously, the time has reached five o'clock in the afternoon, and today's exhibition is also over. Announcements are playing over the loudspeaker, reminding tourists to leave in an orderly manner.

Jiuzhou Cheng and Xiao Jing followed the flow of people and left the venue. But unlike when she came, Xiaojing gained a lot. She was holding several shopping bags in her hand, which contained peripheral products she bought at the exhibition.

It was already dinner time, and the two of them were already exhausted after a day of shopping, so they found a conveyor belt sushi restaurant on the roadside for dinner.

"Xiao Jing, you really like these things." Kyushu Cheng took a plate of eel sushi from the caterpillar belt. After taking a bite, he felt that it was not as fresh and delicious as Fukuoka's.

"Of course. In fact, I told Brother Cheng that you must not laugh at me." Xiao Jing gently stirred the miso soup in the bowl with a spoon, and after thinking for a moment, he confessed:
"At the beginning, I started learning Wano Mandarin because I really liked Wano anime. I thought about studying here. Then my parents happened to think that doing so would be good for my future, so they sent me here."

"This is not unusual, maybe many international students think like you." Kyushu Cheng took a sip of barley tea and said calmly:
"Wano Country continues to influence Yanhuang through this culture, so there are many young people like you who are interested in Wano Country. Although I dare not say whether this is good or bad."

"Hey, Brother Cheng, do you think I'm stupid for being like this?" Xiao Jing shrank his neck, as if he was a little confused about Kyushu Cheng's attitude: "Just because of this naive and unthinking idea, I decided to study abroad in Tokyo, and the result is here. It’s so different from what I imagined, and I’ve suffered so much because I didn’t adapt to the environment, but I can only grit my teeth and feel sorry for myself, haha, I deserve it, right?”

After saying that, Xiao Jing felt a little regretful. Perhaps before many people like her came to Tokyo, they fantasized that their campus life would be like a youth campus love-themed anime - meeting a group of like-minded partners, participating in various national youth competitions with club classmates, and best of all, To meet an excellent and beautiful true love
But in terms of results, Xiaojing's campus life in Tokyo is indeed similar to youth campus-themed animation, but it is more biased towards the depressive style of "The Shape of Sound".

"Maybe~ I had unrealistic fantasies, but in the end I was crushed by the cruel reality. I could only swallow all the grievances into my stomach." Kyushu Cheng subconsciously put the empty plate he had finished on the caterpillars. , and quickly took it back. After all, the conveyor belt sushi restaurant calculates the money according to the plate that is eaten:

"People will always make some decisions that they regret deeply due to poor thinking and naivety in their lives. Even I am no exception. We cannot turn back time. The only thing we can do is to keep moving forward and don't stop. Steps. If you can correct the mistake, try to correct it. If you can't correct it, you must live with the mistake. This is how everyone lives. "

"Hey" Xiao Jing nodded in understanding.

"You regret your decision to study in Tokyo, but haven't you always persisted?" Kyushu Cheng said with a smile:

"You said before that you were planning to go to a prestigious university. I guess no matter how much you regret it, you never gave up on your studies, right?"

"Well, even if I really don't want to go to school, there is no one to communicate with, and I don't want to face the counselor's stinky face, but I will still grit my teeth and go to school every day, and get good grades." Xiao Jing lowered his head, his tone a little depressed:
"That's all I can do, but I persist so much, probably just because I don't want to disappoint my parents."

"Isn't that awesome?" Jiuzhou Cheng smiled gently:
"No matter you make a decision that you regret again and again, no matter how stupid a mistake you make, you still continue to live without giving up on yourself. This is already amazing."

"Hey~" Xiaojing felt a lot happier when she was suddenly praised, but she still felt disappointed:
"But this is all thanks to Brother Cheng! Without Brother Cheng, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do anything."

As she spoke, she expressed the doubts that had always existed in her heart:

"Brother Cheng, why are you willing to help someone like me? This is obviously not good for Brother Cheng, right?"

Faced with this question, Kyushu Cheng chuckled and asked: "Hurtring others requires countless reasons to explain it reasonably, but does helping others need any reason?"

"Hmm" Xiao Jing was stunned.

"." Kyushu Makoto suddenly looked at the shopping bags in Xiao Jing's hand. One of the shopping bags had an anime character printed on it. It was the male protagonist named Kaneki Ken in the popular anime "Tokyo Ghoul".

The shopping bag is printed with this character's classic line: "The cause of all tragedies is the lack of ability of the person involved!"

"Xiao Jing, do you think that the cause of all tragedies is the lack of ability of the parties involved?" Jiuzhou Cheng suddenly asked thoughtfully:

"Because the victim had no ability to prevent the tragedy, did the tragedy happen?"

"Ah, this." Xiao Jing quickly looked at the shopping bag in his hand and said in surprise: "This... it actually makes sense."

"In my opinion, this theory is completely wrong." Jiuzhou Cheng covered his forehead and said coldly: "Shouldn't the fundamental source of the tragedy be the perpetrator of the tragedy?"

"Well, that's right." Xiao Jing's heart trembled, Jiuzhou Cheng's words struck her as thunder.

The culprit of the tragedy is the perpetrator. This simple truth like 1+1=2 is irrefutable.

"Perhaps the characters in this anime have other intentions for saying such things." Kyushu Cheng stared at her seriously and continued:
"But in my opinion, being weak is not a sin, it is the strong who bully the weak who are wrong."

"As a strong person, or a person who is stronger than the weak, I want to help the weak. I think there has never been a saying that 'weakness is the original sin' in this world. Maybe weak people are easily bullied. But this is absolutely not a reason why they should be bullied.”

"So, does Brother Cheng help me because he thinks I'm a weak person?" Xiao Jing lowered his head slightly.

Brother Cheng was right, she was weak, there was no refuting this. But when Brother Cheng said such words himself, she still felt shocked.

"Maybe, but I have never looked down on the weak." Kyushu Cheng seemed not to notice her mood, and took a sip of tea and continued:

"Because I was once weak and was helped by other strong people, so I want to be like him and help other weak people."

"And I think it's not enough to just provide protection for the weak. That's why he will train the weak and make them strong, so that he can do it once and for all. It's like I decided to train Xiaojing to overcome psychological barriers instead of I’ll just beat that dean up for you.”

"But, I'm not willing to help anyone." Kyushu Cheng suddenly changed the subject, patted her on the back, and said with a smile:

"I have also met some people who have extremely low self-esteem, who only despise themselves, and who can't be saved by my efforts."

"That me?" Xiao Jing pointed to himself hesitantly, feeling even more anxious.

"You are not among them." Jiuzhou Cheng gave her a reassuring smile and said:
"It is precisely because you have never despised yourself deep down that I can help you so smoothly. Maybe you are a weak person, but you have always had the heart to change, which is worthy of praise. So don't be disappointed anymore. , don’t think how bad you are. I actually think highly of you and everything will get better.”

"Hey, hehe." Xiaojing was a little shy when he was suddenly praised like this, and he quickly rubbed the base of his ears, which were as red as the sunset, with his fingers:

"Am I really as powerful as Brother Cheng says~?"

"Well, I believe you will be able to break free from the shackles and get back on your feet before the end of the summer vacation." Kyushu Cheng said:
"When you go back to school, even the counselor who has been making things difficult for you will be caught off guard by your changes."

Looking at Jiuzhou Cheng's sunny face and his straightforward but kind words of encouragement, Xiao Jing only felt extremely warm. It was as if as long as he stayed by Kyushu Cheng's side, all the coldness and darkness would be driven away.

"Yeah~! I will definitely do it!" Xiao Jing clenched his fists and encouraged himself.

In the sushi restaurant, the orange lights suddenly flashed a few times, and then nearly half of the lights went out. The atmosphere in the store became depressing, and many customers were frightened.

Some customers immediately protested to the store clerk, but the clerk said helplessly, "The light may be broken, and we will have to notify the customer for repairs tomorrow." This caused many customers to curse in low voices.

Xiaojing is one of the few customers who doesn't mind the commotion because she has found her own sun.
