tokyo soulful legend

Chapter 6

As evening approaches, Tokyo is dyed golden by the setting sun.

In the refraction of the light, the sunset light that crossed the city skyline climbed up to the high-rise buildings, leaving dazzling halos on the outer glass, and the distant crossroads gradually became blurred, as if they had been added Layer retro film filter.

At this moment, the concrete steel forest seemed to finally slow down.

After coming out of the supermarket, carrying large and small shopping bags, Kitagawa Che and Ejima Myo were on their way home.

Walking on the sidewalk, Kitagawa Che slowed down a little, turned his eyebrows and looked at the city's main road just around the corner.

At this time, it was the rush hour for commuting, and the traffic flow gathered together, and the originally spacious road was full of dense traffic.

However, due to city regulations, there was traffic jam at this time and there were few honking sounds. In comparison, the roar of car engines and the conversations of passers-by on both sides of the sidewalk were particularly clear.

Looking away, Kitagawa Che started chatting with great interest, "Miao, do you know when there was no difference between a good car and an ordinary car?"

"When?"

Ejima Myo turned her head, with doubts in her eyes.

This topic was too exciting, and she couldn't keep up with her thoughts for a while.

"Here." Kitagawa Teru deliberately slowed down two steps and motioned to Myo Ejima, who was walking on the sidewalk, to look towards the driveway. "In times of traffic jams like this, no matter if you have a good car or an ordinary car, in the traffic You have to wait patiently until the indicator light changes."

"Oh."

Ejima Miao agreed and pulled Kitagawa Che closer to the sidewalk.

The next moment, a hurried office worker ran past him.

"Actually, there is one thing that I have always been curious about." Ejima Myo paused, "Ache, why do you suddenly want to learn fighting?"

In Eshima Myo's impression, Kitagawa Che had never been interested in such fighting. During the time when she went to receive specialized training, Mrs. Kitagawa asked her young master if she wanted to learn together, but at that time He refused, and refused quite decisively.

It's like he's completely uninterested and doesn't intend to have anything to do with it.

Not once or twice, when she was learning mixed martial arts, he rejected her like this, and when she dabbled in kendo, he also rejected her like this.

As for after the accident, my young master rarely said anything at home, let alone refused. The same was true at school. Starting from this month, he started to talk relatively more.

"The interest suddenly came."

To this question, Bei Chuan Che had already thought about how to answer it.

As a time traveler, he is well aware of how serious the campus bullying is in Tokyo.

He didn't want to bully others, but he also didn't want to be targeted by those campus delinquents with cock heads.

If you want to fight against the hot violence on campus, the best way is to have countermeasures.

Hands-on is always the worst option, but it has to be there.

What's more, I still have such a learning panel. Since I have such a prerequisite advantage, I should make good use of it.

17 years old, afraid that school is not violent enough.jpg
Of course, this is just a joke.

Kitagawa Che didn't plan to practice this skill to a high level, just enough for self-defense, and he didn't even think about doing more.

The two of them unknowingly arrived at the intersection of the main traffic road.

This intersection was also the last one on their way home.

"Is it really just a hobby?"

Ejima Miao blinked, her red eyes filled with suspicion.

"I just feel that we should have the basic self-protection ability." Kitagawa Che gave Miao Eshima a "stop and stop" look, but the latter didn't realize it. He had no choice but to use his empty hand to pull He grabbed her wrist and grabbed her abruptly, "Hey! The red light is here."

"Sorry, master, I didn't pay much attention."

Ejima Miao subconsciously lowered her head and apologized.

After the words fell, the actions of the passers-by around him stopped, and then they quietly pricked up their ears, hoping to hear more gossip before the traffic light changed from red to green.

hiss.

Beichuan Che took a breath of cold air.

It's not that he's surprised that this child is so scary, nor is he too uncomfortable with the reactions of the people around him. He just feels that Eshima's behavior of keeping Marseille private at all times is really hard for him to bear.

He even had a premonition that if he didn't answer Ejima Miao, the girl would immediately add the sentence "Red Dorney Private Marseille".

"There's no need to apologize for this kind of thing, right?" Beichuan Che shook his head and lowered his voice, "I remember a saying that said, the more familiar friends are, the more natural it should be to get along with each other. , isn’t it a piece of cake, but it’s not right to treat each other as guests.”

In his life experience, generally speaking, the more polite they are to each other, the more ordinary the relationship will be.

"I……"

"Okay, it's time to answer the question you just asked." Kitagawa Che interrupted Eshima Miao's words, and his eyes fell on the indicator light on the opposite side of the street. There were still 15 seconds left for the red light at the crosswalk, and he was silent in his heart Di Jing counted for ten seconds, and then said, "Boys always desire power."

The sidewalk lights turned green.

"time to go."

After reminding Ejima Miao, Kitagawa Che took a step forward. While looking at both sides of the zebra crossing, he took her hand and walked to the opposite side of the street.

When the two of them walked through the intersection and stepped onto the road inside the residential area, Kitagawa Che let go of Eshima Myo's hand.

"But, before, young master, you..."

Myo Eshima didn't finish her words, but her meaning was conveyed.

“The answer is that people change all the time.”

"But it's going to be hard."

Miao Eshima's eyes were quite serious. She gritted her teeth and completed the training that lasted for a year. The reason was that she hoped that through such training, she could protect him in the future.

"There is nothing in life that is not hard."

"If the young master says so." Ejima Myo no longer insisted on her own ideas, "then, I understand, I respect your ideas and will fully support your ideas."

"But..." She changed the topic, her eyes were clear and firm, and she didn't know whether it was due to the dusk light. Her side face was stained with a layer of red clouds, "If you are just trying to protect yourself, I I don’t think it’s necessary, because…” She paused, “I will protect you.”

In the year when she was adopted by Beichuan's family, because of her rustic accent and lack of self-confidence, she was often bullied by other children after being transferred to the elementary school where Beichuan Che also attended.

She endured these bullying in silence.

Being precocious, she knew that if she got into trouble just after being adopted, the Beichuan couple would definitely be dissatisfied, even if they were very kind to her.

Until one day, Kitagawa Che knew about this.

He, who had always been quite indifferent to her, waved his fist at the people who bullied her that afternoon.

Two against five, although they won badly, they still won.

Both he and she were bruised and swollen, but obviously the five bastards were more serious.

After learning about this incident, the Beichuan couple did not blame them, but gently told her that she must resist next time she encounters such a thing.

The Beichuan couple even approached the principal because of this.

It was different from what she had imagined. The old man who always had a straight face did not make peace or do Tai Chi, but gave an objective and fair conclusion.

Those who bullied and bullied her received the punishment they deserved.

Since that time, no one dared to bully her again.

From that day on, she became more and more determined in the idea in her heart.

No matter when or where, she will stay by Beichuan Che's side, protect him and take care of him.

It was like when he stood in front of him and swung his fist at the person who bullied him without hesitation.

This is also the reason why she was able to grit her teeth and carry through those trainings the year before last and complete them to the best of her ability.

There was another silence between the two.

After walking another distance, the roads in the residential area became empty.

They were the only ones left in the street, and the sky was dyed red by the burning clouds.

Beichuan Che's expression relaxed a little, his tone was calm and serious, he lightly touched the back of Eshima's hand with the back of his hand, "Could it be possible to hide behind you when you encounter problems? That's not good.

"If I have a choice, I still prefer to have the ability to protect myself. Ideally, I can also protect the people I want to protect when necessary, such as... you."

Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

Miao Eshima's heart skipped a beat.

She turned her head sideways, and the fire cloud seemed to reflect on her face.
