Chapter 4 My Dream is Poverty Alleviation!
"That's right!" Keigo Higashino, who is worthy of a generation of reasoning masters, immediately reacted, "That's right, how can watermelon rinds be thrown around! Moreover, what about the cleaning staff? If you clean it in time, won't it be ......?"
Higashino nodded, "That's right. ”
"It's too immoral! It's too irresponsible!" Mr. Keigo launched a wave of in-depth reasoning, "Don't talk about you China, let's just say that we RB are like this, this billboard should at least do some work to maintain and remove rust! What about municipal supervision? Is it because Okinawa is very poor, so it ......?"
"That's right! I seem to have subcontracted out the cleaning work there, and besides, the big trucks should be slower in the city. ”
The case was solved, the case was really solved.
People who eat melons, cleaning companies, truck drivers, Naha city officials, owners of billboards......
Each of them may have been a small mistake, but it ended up with a terrible result.
"Saikyo, Aria Bean, I can finally become a Buddha. ”
Keigo Higashino's resentment has accumulated for sixteen years, and according to his thoughts, after finding the truth about his death, his resentment should dissipate.
But in the matter of becoming a Buddha, Higashino Qiang is more anxious than Keigo Higashino.
As long as Keigo Higashino, a resentful spirit, becomes a Buddha, then Higashino Qiang will start his career as a copyist.
Traverser, finally have a chance to drag Cooljack.
That's why, he took some risks to tell his secrets to Keigo Higashino, a resentful spirit.
But it's not a risk, this spirit is very sad, and others don't feel it at all.
So......
"Become a Buddha!
"Okay! I'll do it!"
These two ... It's a perfect match.
Keigo Higashino's eyes were closed, and his face was holy.
One minute, two minutes...... Five minutes have passed ...
The originally holy grimace already had an expression like constipation.
"Mr. Keigo...... "Higashino Qiang really can't stand it.
"Why did it fail?" Keigo Higashino himself was confused, but when he thought about it again, he suddenly felt like he had an epiphany.
He said, "Wait a minute, I've got it! My grudge is not the truth of my death, but the fact that I want to get a reward for Ranbu!"
Ranbu reward, this is Keigo Higashino's wish before he died.
He also swore to the sea.
In this way, the reward of random steps is his resentment, which is absolutely reasonable.
The details of swearing to the sea are out one by one...
After hearing this, Higashino confirmed his eyes.
This is the second in the middle.
However, the Random Step Reward ...
Keigo Higashino thought for a moment and asked, "Saikyo! You died in 2019, right?"
"That's right. ”
"So, did I get the Ranbu Reward? the 1985 Ranbu Reward?"
How does Higashino answer?
I saw that at this time, Dongye Qiang returned to the state of Buddhism, with a handsome face and no waves.
"Got it! And, I can tell you again that you, Keigo Higashino, are one of the best and most famous mystery novelists in my time and space!"
As soon as these words came out, I heard a crazy ghostly laugh.
Hahaha......
The wraith seemed to be crazy, "I really succeeded!
Seeing the appearance of this ghost, Higashino Qiang felt inexplicably.
Higashino Qiang, who is also a writer, is also very popular.
Who doesn't want to succeed?
Who doesn't want to win a prize?
If one day, I really become famous with a book, then this is refreshing......
98,198,298......
Takeoff!
At the starting point, there were many writers who slaughtered the gods and preached to find their lost swords.
Higashino Qiang was very envious at that time, and he also wanted to fly, and he also wanted to look for it.
I must become a god!
Right now.
"Mr. Keigo, try it, can you become a Buddha this time?"
"Good!"
Keigo Higashino is holy again......
After a while.
"Woo...... Mr. Keigo cried again, "I'm afraid that I can only become a Buddha if I touch the trophy with my own hands." ”
But he's dead, and there's no chance.
Higashino Qiang's indifferent face also twitched.
He's a, and he's asking for a lot.
However, Higashino has already come up with a solution.
"Mr. Keigo, you're not that stupid, are you?"
When Mr. Keigo heard this, he grimaced, "Do you mean ......?"
"You come and help me, the two of us will write a novel!
"This ...... Great!"
Mr. Keigo was instantly happy.
Higashino Qiang was naturally very happy, but what he thought in his heart was: I become a god, you become a Buddha, perfect.
Higashino Qiang, a Buddhist teenager, late at night on April 1, 2000, his dream came back.
......
......
The next day, Sunday morning, Mr. and Mrs. Higashino returned.
And Higashino Qiang went out for a run according to his own habits.
The island in the early morning, surrounded by waves.
Although it has been nearly 16 years, the sunshine, the palm trees, and the fresh air brought by the sea breeze are really attractive.
In his previous life, he was a dead fat house, and in this life, Higashino Qiang doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past.
He worked hard to train himself, even if he wanted to live a Buddhist life, then he had to be a handsome Buddhist teenager, youth, and prime of life......
Under the sun, there was a teenager sweating beads.
Exercising doesn't delay thinking.
What is Higashino's dream?
Exceptionally plain.
Poverty!
Higashino Qiang wants his parents to live a good life and let himself have money to spend.
To tell the truth, for this dream, he is a traverser, and he is really embarrassed to greet his peers.
But is this dream difficult?
Difficult.
Blood mom is hard!
Higashino Qiang himself doesn't believe that it will be so difficult to get out of poverty in RB.
Speaking of RB, there is no need to talk about others, when I was still Liu Qiang, I felt that RB people had a high income.
He couldn't remember too specifically, but he heard that it was 3 million yen per person.
But after I came, I found out that this was not the case at all.
3 million yen, that's the Tokyo area, but it's not so good anywhere else.
Especially in recent years.
The Asian financial crisis, which is no joke, is a direct manifestation of the visible decline in the per capita income of RB.
It's better than South Korea next door, where it's the point where the whole people pawn their property.
It's 2000, and not so long ago, U.S. tech stocks exploded on the spot.
Technology stocks are very closely related to RB.
Needless to say, it will have to fall this year.
Okinawa Prefecture is the poorest prefecture in the entire RB.
The per capita income is about 2 million yen, and this year's estimate is about 1.8 million yen, which is definitely an overestimate.
The disposable income is at 1 million.
What about Dali Village?
I'm sorry to mention it.
The Higashino family, in previous years, relied on grocery stores, and there were about 2.5 million, but this year's business is very poor, and it is estimated that if it can exceed 2 million, even if the ancestral tomb is smoking.
Poor.
The level of the subsistence line, but Dongye Steel will never apply for the subsistence allowance.
We Higashino are Chinese.
What should I do if I want to get out of poverty?
First you have to face a very powerful enemy.
Curing.
RB is a society that has been solidified, and this solidification begins with education.
Take Higashino Qiang as an example, what would happen if he chose a private high school?
First of all, private high schools generally require at least 600,000 yen a year.
Of course, there are many details in it, but the minimum is this number.
600,000 yen, with the economic situation of the Higashino family, everyone tightens their bellies, which is still acceptable.
However, the first year was not 600,000.
It's like that all RB, it's like this in all schools.
The tuition fee for the first year is double, that is, a minimum of 1.2 million yen.
Some aristocratic schools start at 3 million yen, but fortunately, this is not considered.
However, there are more than 1.2 million.
There are still exams.
Unlike public high schools, private high schools do not take the prefectural examination, but rather the "business test".
The operator test is conducted by the testing company.
It's not a paper, you have to go to a private school to take the exam.
What to do?
Private middle schools are better, but public schools can only go to private schools.
At least 200,000 yen a year.
That's why, at the beginning of the third year of junior high school, Higashino made this decision.
This is already the deadline, and there is no point in entering a private school any later.
Keep in mind that this doesn't include other costs.
Higashino Qiang chooses a private high school, which is going to school?
This is the life of the entire Higashino family!
On the other hand, Higashino Qiang entered an ordinary public high school, so he didn't have a chance at all?
Is it really impossible to get into a university?
The answer is, not at all.
RB is a nine-year compulsory education system, and at the same time it has introduced something special.
Happy education.
In fact, the correct way to say it is lenient education.
Those born after 1987 are now known as the Loose Generation.
This educational reform began in 1981, especially after several major reforms in '89 and '94.
Right now.
Not only high schools, but also public middle schools are clear.
We do not aim at going on to higher education.
Higashino didn't believe there was such a school at first.
Later he understood.
If you don't go on to school, you'll be happy.
Load off, herd sheep, and leave school at half past two in the afternoon.
The school and the teachers will not put any pressure on the students.
Everyone comes to school every day, and it's really happy.
But what about life after happiness?
Actually, RB people are not stupid at all.
The goal of a private school is to get into college.
In 1992, only 3 percent of all RB students went to private high schools.
But now, there are more than 4,300 high schools in RBall, and private ones are already the majority.
Naturally, there are good public high schools, but there are very few of them, and they are all concentrated in big cities, especially several national high schools in Tokyo.
It is important to understand that public high schools are divided into regions, and Higashino Qiang can only enter Dazato High School.
Dali Village is the poorest place in the whole RB, and Dali High School is definitely a fighter in the garbage.
Moreover, the college entrance examination at RB is completely different from ours in China.
There are two exams, and the second time is the real key, which is the school's own questions.
The high school entrance examination already requires a private school to have a chance to take the private examination, and the college entrance examination is even more so.
Higashino Qiang, no matter how hard he tries, he just needs to go to Dazato High School.
Then, it is completely insulated from the university.
Don't say anything about RB's well-known Seven Old Emperors, what Todai, Kyoto...... Even ordinary universities don't have any chances.
Without money, there will be no good educational resources, without good educational resources, you will not be able to find a good job, and without a good job, there will be no money...... And so on and so forth.
And in RB there are few other upward channels.
That's the truth of solidification.
Higashino understood this very early, especially with the arrival of the Asian financial crisis.
He really couldn't be so selfish and chose a private high school.
This is not a high school opportunity, let alone a college opportunity, this is likely to give up life.
The phrase 'I don't have dreams' is not an exaggeration.
That's why he built a protective case for himself in advance.
Buddhism.
Now, because of the appearance of Mr. Keigo.
Here's your chance!
Fiction is a way to make money.
Thinking and practicing, suddenly a voice shouted from behind.
"Ernie sauce!"
