I Teach Kendo in Tokyo

"What?" Shigeru Ikeda didn't mean to pretend to be stupid, he really didn't expect the store manager to say such a sentence first.

The store manager didn't answer, but said to himself: "When I was studying, I was often bullied by unscrupulous teenagers."

Shigeru Ikeda's heart froze in an instant, and he stood there helplessly unable to speak.

The shop manager vomited a smoke ring and continued: "I used to expect all the bad boys to die for me, and I also thought about getting a knife for one and then a hundred. You guys, you are just **** in the rubbish."

Shigeru Ikeda didn't know how to answer, so he had to say, "I'm sorry."

If he changed, he would not care about the accusation of the store manager at all. He might even beat the store manager happily, telling him that this world works like this, and he should be bullied if he doesn't have the strength.

But now, Shigeru Ikeda felt very guilty, as if he was the culprit who bullied the young store manager.

"What's your apology, it has nothing to do with you?" The store manager said lightly, "And I just used the past tense."

Shigeru Ikeda asked hopefully, "Do you forgive them now?"

"No, how can you forgive me? Don't say such idiots." The store manager took another big puff of smoke and spit out a big cloud of smoke. "It's just that the object of hatred is gone. Or died in the gang fire, or in Poverty and destitution took risks, and the result was a loss of money and wealth. There was also a simple excessive drinking and went directly to the West, and I was still alive.

"I actually hate such a group of short-lived ghosts, and I want to exchange my own life for the lives of these short-lived ghosts. It's so stupid. If I really want to change it, then I will lose a lot.

"You look at me. There is no bright moment. Just facing the arrogant little Maotou, I can only choose to call the police. If he comes up to threaten me, I will probably only beg for mercy and even lick his shoes... I did it when I was young. Past this matter.

"However, I will survive. I am already a full-time member. I don't need any merit, as long as the number of years of work grows, I will be promoted and paid naturally.

"I will marry a good wife, maybe through a blind date. I will have a house of my own somewhere in Tokyo, with a pair of children. Do you know what this is called? This is called the future, this is for me Said it is something that is visible and tangible.

"This is also the baseball man just now, and you, something that didn't."

The shop manager pinched the cigarette, threw it on the ground, and repeatedly stepped on it with his foot. He stood up and turned his head to look at Shigeru Ikeda, grinning: "Look at your future, is there even the slightest existence?"

Shigeru Ikeda could not say anything to refute.

When he used to be a bad boy and a squad leader, he looked to the future and could see himself dressed in extremely high standards and wearing a pattern.

And now, the front is blurred, there is nothing.

"I don't know the opportunity that made you decide to try the prodigal son back," the store manager patted Shigeru Ikeda on the shoulder, "I am willing to give you a chance, but after today's event, if I don't open you, the head office He will come to me and be accountable because I recruited a bad boy who might cause trouble as an employee."

"I..." Shigeru Ikeda wanted to argue, wanting to say that he had changed his mind.

But the store manager interrupted him: "I can listen to you to explain, but the head office will not. You are a bad boy in the eyes of a big man. As long as you were, you are now, and you will be in the future.

"Only those NGOs will hire you back prodigal sons. But if you want to enter the NGO's facilities, you have to go first to the squad room. If you don't squat in the room, you will have no chance to connect to the NGO rescue."

The store manager paused for a long time, and then used the most straightforward words to let Shigeru Ikeda recognize his current situation: "You have been fired."

Although he was mentally prepared, Shigeru Ikeda felt annoyed when this scene really arrived. He questioned: "I was fired? Then I paid half of the money for the unreasonable guest yesterday. How to calculate lunch money?"

"On the company's account, the customer bought a full-price bento. If you don't accept it, you can take legal means." The store manager smiled and said to Shigeru Ikeda, "This is how a good person handles this kind of thing."

Even Shigeru Ikeda knows to find lawyers through legal channels, and the asking prices of lawyers are very expensive.

He was so angry that he really wanted to punch the shop manager in the face.

He glanced at the store manager and found that the other person was looking at him with contempt.

His eyes seemed to say again, "Look, a bad boy is a bad boy, and there is no such thing as a golden basin for washing your hands."

Shigeru Ikeda remembered what the store manager had just said. I am afraid that he has done it himself now. The store manager will kneel down and beg for mercy without hesitation.

But no matter how hard Ikeda Shigeru hit, he couldn't change the store manager's contempt for himself.

Because the store manager holds the future.

Shigeru Ikeda slowly opened his clenched fist.

He said to the store manager: "Thank you for telling me so much. I really can't see the future now, but I will continue to work hard."

The store manager stared at Shigeru Ikeda for a few seconds, and asked, "Why bother, wouldn't it be nice to go back to be your director? Maybe you can really be the leader of a three-generation organization in Jidao. Even so, It’s also much more prestigious than me, an average member of the club."

Shigeru Ikeda thought that of course I knew that it was the future I had always seen before.

"But, I want to be a good person now." Shigeru Ikeda smiled at the store manager. "One day, I can tell you upright, I am a good person, and I will come back to find you for a drink."

Shigeru Ikeda finished speaking and bowed deeply to the store manager.

Then he turned around and left without any nostalgia.

"Wait~www.readwn.com~ the manager stopped him suddenly," take it, the half-price lunch. "

"No, this..."

"Take it! Gan, if you don't take it, I will suffer from insomnia for a month!" The store manager forced the money into Shigeru Ikeda's hands, "Also, this is yesterday's wages. Work hard."

"This……"

"It's just that you didn't hit me in return just now." The store manager sighed, "I was actually ready to eat and fight just now. Come on, don't mess up the next part-time job. Go to those Let’s try your luck in a store where the owner seems to have a story."

"Thank you!" Shigeru Ikeda bowed to the store manager again, turned and ran away in stride.

The shop manager stayed in place and lit another cigarette.

"Does the prodigal son look back...I hope he can go on." He whispered, but immediately added, "It's really that simple. There is no saying in the proverb that "the prodigal son will not change his head"."
