...
In the distance, a black sedan started its engine and drove towards the avenue with a roar.
“It was a really good show.”
Sakishima Yamada lazily sat in the rear passenger seat, his smile becoming more and more sinister. "Tsk, I've come up with another good idea."
After talking to himself for a while, he turned his head and looked at the man in the butler's uniform, "Uncle Tobiba, how long will it take for the Slayer to arrive?"
"Master, in the last five days, we will definitely arrive within five days!"
“Five days…” Sakishima Yamada closed his eyes and crossed his legs. “Well, let him enjoy one day at the end.”
Tada Kiyoyu...
This wonderful game of life and death, friendship and choice is finally about to begin!
Chapter 45: False Justice and Fairness
"I hope you can understand that there is a difference between domestic disputes and violent assaults."
At the reporting counter, the young police officer crossed his legs and said nonchalantly, "Please go back. If there is not enough evidence to prove that this is a violent injury, we cannot dispatch the police to investigate the case."
Qingyou remained silent. His pair of dark eyes were as deep as a pool of stagnant water, and his expression was calm. No one could tell what he was thinking.
Just when the police were about to get impatient and wanted to kick the man out, the boy bowed and said, "Sorry to trouble you."
After saying that, he stood up straight with his thin body, turned around and left without saying another word.
...
[Host, I have already said that the police in Chundao City are not as righteous as you think. The public security here is already chaotic, and there are gang fights everywhere. The police can hardly protect themselves, so how can they care about this so-called "family dispute"? ]
The system advised him to think of other solutions.
"Oh, I see."
Qingyou exhaled hot air, looking at the fading dusk glow in the sky, with a calm expression, "Uncle Tong, how many energy points do you have left from completing daily tasks?"
[Of course there are more. ]
In the past few decades, each time a task was completed, various abilities and values would be rewarded. However, as the boy was reborn again and again, the rewards he received were directly cleared and disappeared due to reincarnation.
Even at the end, I couldn't even get the reward items, so I could only turn them all into energy points and accumulate them for the task of obtaining the Dragon's Eyes.
I have accumulated a lot of energy points so far.
[Host, why are you asking this? ]
"Aren't there some things that can be exchanged in the system mall? Can you help me see if there are any gadgets that can monitor the video."
[Host, do you think I am Doraemon? The system mall has long been in name only. How can I exchange items?]
After so many rebirths, many of its companion abilities have been paralyzed, and even things in the mall have disappeared inexplicably.
Whenever I think of this, the system feels sad. [It's unrealistic. The host should change.]
"Are you sure?" Qingyou frowned, "But I clearly saw a few days ago that this little gadget called 'Virtual Space Camera' can be exchanged."
[But that costs 100,000 energy points, host! ! ] The system was furious, [It only cost 1,000 energy points before, but now it’s so expensive, isn’t it obvious that they are just trying to snatch it up! ! ]
Virtual space camera, as the name suggests, is a surveillance camera that is invisible to the naked eye. The video is clear and high-definition and can last for one day.
"One hundred thousand is one hundred thousand." Qingyou said calmly, "Uncle Tong, please help me exchange one quickly. The progress of the mission of the suit thug can't be delayed any longer."
【...Host】
After hesitating for a while, the system was unable to help, so he had to respond dryly, "I understand. I'll exchange it for you right away."
It still thinks that the police are unreliable, and even if they have certain evidence, they may not go out to arrest people.
After hearing the meaning of the system's statement, Qingyou remained silent and did not respond.
He continued to walk forward with his head down. In the dusk, his dark eyes became deeper and deeper.
***** *****
The next day, he went to the library first. The girl was still sitting in her seat studying as usual.
"Tada-kun." Seeing the young man coming up, Hanyu Reizuki opened her rosy lips and was about to say hello, but Qingyou walked straight to her side, picked up her wrist without saying a word, rolled up her sleeves and looked left and right.
"T-Tada-kun...?"
Hanyu Reizuki was blinded.
"When he got home last night, did he do anything to you and Xiaoyu?" There were no scars on the girl's white arms and her face looked normal. Qingyou put down her wrist and asked.
After hearing the boy's question, Hanyu Reizuki finally realized what the other party was worried about.
"He bought us a lunch box yesterday, then left in a hurry by himself, and didn't come back all night."
Didn't come back all night...
Qingyou had an indifferent expression but sneered inwardly.
I guess he used his money to live a life of luxury!
"Um, I'm really sorry about last night, Tada-kun."
At this time, the girl stood up, took out a small purse from her backpack and handed it over, bowing her head and apologizing, "I'm sorry, because my family's affairs have implicated you. There is 100,000 yuan in cash in it. You take it first, and I will pay the remaining 80,000 yuan slowly."
"Keep it for yourself in case of emergency, Hanyu-senpai." Qingyou pushed it back without changing his expression, "Hide it well, don't let him know."
"But..." Hanyu Reizuki was anxious. How could she let the young man spend so much money for no reason?
"No buts, this is all my own choice, it has nothing to do with Hanyu-senpai." He placed his finger a few millimeters away from the girl's lips and lowered his voice, "Be obedient and keep it on yourself. The Great Cold is coming soon. How can you survive this cold season without this money?"
The girl remained silent. What the other party said was true, but if she accepted the favor for nothing, she would feel guilty about it and it would go against the most basic morals and qualities she had acquired over the years.
Seeing her reaction like this, Qingyou sighed inwardly, what a stubborn girl.
Sitting down at the seat opposite, he picked up a pen and wrote something on a piece of paper, then handed it to the girl after a moment.
"What is this?" Yuzuru Reizuki was puzzled and picked up the note to take a look.
"Well... the guarantee letter, you can also think of it as an IOU." Qingyou explained, "I was admitted to the University of Tokyo with the school's financial support, and then I worked odd jobs to pay it back during the next four years of college."
"Of course, if you don't get into the University of Tokyo, you won't be eligible to pay back the 180,000 yen."
Pointing his finger, he added, "Senior Hanyu can choose not to sign, but no matter how much money you make in the future, I won't take a single cent."
Hanyu Reizuki was silent, staring at the boy's face for a long time without saying a word.
As if to engrave something deeply in my heart.
Then, he sat back on the stool and wrote his name on the note.
"That's right." Qingyou leaned back and smiled faintly, "Please keep the IOU and the receipt safe. Don't lose it, Hanyu-senpai."
"Eh?" Hanyu Reizuki was confused. "Shouldn't you leave it here with Tada-kun?"
"What's the point of leaving me here? Paying back the money is something that depends on self-awareness." He tapped his chin with his index finger, looking nonchalant.
"It can also be regarded as a spur to remind Senior Hanyu. If you slack off in your studies in the future, take out this IOU and see that you are working hard not only for yourself, but also to repay a certain junior for 180,000 yen."
"Tada-kun..."
Yayuu Reizuki murmured in a daze, and her beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam of light like ripples.
After a few breaths, she nodded heavily, carefully folded the note and put it in her pencil case, expressing her determination with her actions.
——This kind of awkward personality really fits Hanyu-senpai’s character.
Qingyou smiled quietly to himself.
[Host, the results of the investigation are out! ! ]
The system's slightly delighted voice suddenly sounded in my mind, and my eyes suddenly froze, "Tell me about it."
[Host, it is like this, there are a total of...]
..
After half a ring
Exhaling a breath of foul air, he rubbed his brows and said, "Okay, I got it. You continue to investigate. We can talk about this later."
【OK?】
He sat up straight, put his hands on his chin, and looked at the girl opposite him, "Hanyu-senpai."
She was replaced by a voice for no reason. Hanyu Reizuki raised her eyes, a little confused, but the boy's next words made her pupils dilate instantly and wake up directly, "Do you want to leave this family with Xiaoyu?"
“Tada-kun!!!” Hanyu Reizuki suddenly propped up the table with both hands, her chest rising and falling violently, her emotions were very unstable, “Don’t do anything stupid.”
"Stupid thing?" Qingyou was slightly confused, but after a few breaths, he quickly reacted, "Come on, Hanyu-senpai, do you think I'm that kind of person?"
Are you afraid that you might kill Hanyu Keidō? You have a wild imagination.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I just asked what you think."
“Is that so…” Hanyu Reizuki heaved a sigh of relief. While her emotions had stabilized, she still felt a little embarrassed. “Sorry, I overthought…”
"So." Qingyou looked at the girl, "Hanyu-senpai, do you want to leave this family?"
"Leaving..."
Hanyu Reizuki looked a little dazed, biting her teeth lightly, and her eyes gradually became filled with bitterness and gloom.
"Even if I really want to escape, what can I do..."
The ending is still the same, she will always be caught by the man and then beaten up.
There were people he knew on the streets of Chundao City, so it was useless to flee anywhere, unless she and her brother already had the ability to rule this city.
But if she left here, would she and her brother still have a real home? They would be homeless and would never see their new friends again, nor would they see...Tada-kun.
Close your eyes to hide the deep despair
Or, bear with it...
"So, Hanyu-senpai still wants to leave this home, right?" The young man's gentle voice sounded in his ears.
Eh?
She opened her eyes and looked directly into the handsome face of the young man, and her heart seemed to hit a soft spring.
"Well, the Lord God has received this wish."
Qingyou smiled and blinked, "Maybe it will come true in a few days."
"Pfft~"
Hanyu Reizuki covered her mouth and chuckled, "Maybe~"
After being teased by the boy, she felt much better.
As for the so-called gods...
Lower your eyelids to hide the complexities that flashed across your eyes.
My Lord God...
She does have one here.
***** *****
noon
Qingyou left the campus alone and went to a fast food restaurant near the school to eat.
Xiaoyu had a slight cold and was resting in the infirmary, and Qingyou was too embarrassed to ask him to join him.
The weather is already cold, and it would be bad if you catch a cold.
[Host, the subsystem is carefully checking the information of these three couples through various files. All investigations are incomplete, so their character needs to be considered.]
"Yeah, I understand." Qingyou jumped to the ground, clapped his hands, and walked out of the bushes, "Then do you know their family idiom?"
[Host, I know all this.] The system said slowly, "Two couples lost their children at an early age, and another couple lost the ability to raise children."
"Are they all so miserable?" Qingyou raised an eyebrow, "Then what is their relationship with Hanyu-senpai?"
[One pair is the older sister of Hanyu Reizuki’s biological mother, and the other two pairs are Hanyu Keidou’s two older brothers]
