Chapter Seventy-Two: Identity
Compared with these so-called "elites", there is another type of people who are scattered in a foreign land.
They belong to children who have never had a good face at home, who are despised and disliked.
But although he was forced to walk out at home, he was forced to walk out, and it was very good outside.
But in their hearts, they can never give up the place where they were born and raised, and the identity of the countrymen who have never brought them any benefits.
On the same Chinese New Year's Eve, in an apartment building in Tokyo's Masano Ward, "Sugar Heart" and "Reach Out", "Big Eye Light", "Two Heads" and "Roller" sat around the dining table together, sighing silently.
In fact, judging from the two-bedroom apartment with complete electrical facilities and the relatively spacious room area, as well as the sumptuous dinner full of sashimi, sushi, dumplings, braised pork, sea crab, chicken vegetarian grille, beer, junmai daiginjo, and Moutai, it can be proved that their situation is not bad, and the standard of living is far higher than that of the average Japanese family of four.
But the surprise is that everyone looks so depressed.
If we look at this scene more closely, we will find that the focus of the gaze of several people in the audience is all concentrated on the table, on the five "permanent residence" documents printed with their respective photos.
However, this scene is probably even more surprising.
Anyone who really knows Japan knows that this is the identity that countless foreigners who have set foot on this land have been waiting for, and the word "special" has been added to it.
This means that foreigners with such documents are not normally given many privileges.
For example, ordinary foreigners will be deported to their home countries if they break the law, and they will need to have their fingerprints checked when entering and leaving Japan. And they don't use any of them.
But if it's such a good thing, why are they upset?
The answer was finally revealed from the words of "Sugar Heart".
Before she spoke, she bowed to everyone like a Japanese in earnest, and then said quite apologetically.
"I'm sorry everyone, this didn't work well. However, there are so few of our fellow villagers here, and almost all of them are trainees, and with our original status, there is no possibility of obtaining permanent residency at all. What's more, the word 'special' for permanent residency is only issued to South Koreans and North Koreans, so ...... That's all it can be......"
"I know that people are reluctant to live as Koreans in Japan, but there are so many prejudices and rejections of our country that we urgently need a non-discriminatory identity. Therefore, only in this way can we move to a better place to live, so that we do not have to avoid the police checking our documents, and we can not be afraid of being repatriated to China in case of a mistake. Only in this way can I go to the hospital openly, and everyone can go to school, get a driver's license, and open a bank account. ”
"I confess, it's humiliating, not only for you, but for myself. But there really can't be helped, we don't have any other way to see the light at the moment. In this way, I hereby promise you that if you have the opportunity in the future, no matter how much money you spend, I will do everything I can to return your original identity to you. Even if I change my identity to a Taiwanese or a Hong Kong national, I will never let everyone regret it for a long time! I beg your forgiveness! Please believe me!"
Speaking of this, "Sugar Heart" couldn't help but bow again.
And "reach out" took away his documents without saying a word, and took the lead in expressing his position with actions without conditions.
A moment later, the "big eye" also spoke.
"Girl, don't think about it, it's not up to you. Our brothers are willing to accompany you on this road of no return, and we also understand your difficulties and know the situation of all of us. It's just that once I found out, I suddenly couldn't be a Chinese, and I couldn't even recognize my ancestors, so it was inevitable that I felt very awkward. In fact, to put it bluntly, it just needs an adjustment and adaptation process, and it will be good if you wait for this momentum......"
"Ertou" also has a little spirit at this time.
"Yes, yes, you really don't have to blame yourself, it's okay to talk about it. As long as we still regard ourselves as Chinese, what does it matter what our nominal identity is? As long as we do not forget our ancestors, no one can change our species. In your words, can't you find a way to change it back in the future? Take 10,000 steps back, in fact, it's nothing if you can't change it back, it's a matter of the heart. Anyway, for me, as long as any of you can help in the end, and put my bones in the soil of the capital, there will be nothing else to ask for......"
And just when the "roller" was about to make a statement, an accident suddenly happened at this time.
There was a commotion outside, followed by a rude knock on the door.
"Sugar Heart" They immediately knew that the comer was not good, and they looked at each other, and they each had a defense.
"Reach out" and "two-headed" each took out a pistol from under the cabinet next to it and hid it under the table.
"Reach out" also grabbed the dinner knife on the table, and "Roller" quickly put away the five documents.
At this time, "Tang Xin'er" put on his mask, picked up a folded piece of "Xiangluopa" next to him, answered in Japanese, and walked over and opened the door.
Sure enough, at the door, the building administrator led two policemen to look for trouble.
"Half an hour ago, you went downstairs to throw out the garbage! You people are so bad that you don't even know how to sort the garbage. The caretaker said that the good house was ruined by you. He wants you to leave right away!"
"Hey, pack up your things, give you an hour, don't rub around!"
The two uniformed Japanese policemen were arrogant, giving unreasonable orders without hesitation, while repeatedly looking at the people in the room.
"Sugar Heart" immediately understood what was happening.
When it comes to domestic waste, Japan has always had the strictest collection system in the world.
For example, recyclable plastics should be washed, wiped dry, and placed in a translucent and transparent bag where the contents can be seen clearly.
Use white plastic bags for combustible garbage and red plastic bags for non-combustible garbage.
Combustible garbage is still in designated locations from Monday to Thursday, while non-combustible garbage cannot be disposed of until the first and third Wednesdays of each month.
There are also empty iron cans and empty aluminum cans to be separated, and beer cans and juice cans to be separated.
The most troublesome are the large furniture and electrical appliances, which must be called to make an appointment first, and the approved price is paid to the workers before they can be disposed of.
In addition, the relevant laws and regulations also stipulate that those who pick up garbage and litter without permission will be punished with imprisonment ranging from a few months to one year in addition to a huge fine.
This often makes newcomers to Japan lament that throwing things is harder than picking them up.
As for the few of them, they have the same problem, although they have been in Japan for a short time, they are still not used to this, and one negligence will cause problems.
So it's only been a little more than a month since I moved here, and I've already taught the administrator here a lesson several times.
I think it's because of the garbage just now that there was a problem today, and this administrator thinks he's making trouble, so he will call the police angrily.
Of course, it's not without the fact that their Japanese is not standard, and they look like foreigners at first glance.
Otherwise, this little thing shouldn't be worth making trouble at this level.
But what can we do under the fence? We still have to have a good relationship with others, and it is better to settle things in case of trouble, so as not to cause more trouble.
So "Sugar Heart" politely apologized. I promised to move out as soon as possible.
It is just that today is their traditional holiday, and I hope that the administrator can give them a few days to find a new place to live.
Unexpectedly, the administrator turned his nostrils to the sky, insisted that they move out immediately.
As soon as he insisted, the two policemen were not polite and began to check their identities.
"You, foreigners, Taiwanese, Hong Kongers, Filipinos, do you have a status ......of stay?
"By the way, you, why do you always wear a mask and take it off......"
Most of the Japanese police officers have this virtue, they have a strong prejudice against foreigners, and their attitude is arrogant and arrogant.
If you don't agree with each other, you can almost do whatever you want, and this time it's the same.
There were always exceptions, though, and soon they were taken aback.
This is not only because the gunshot wound on the face of "Sugar Xin'er" is really scary, but they also didn't expect that the five people in the house were all "permanent residence" with "special" powers.
So in this way, things have a clever change.
"Ouch, you're all Koreans in Japan. A policeman sighed and turned to face the administrator, "Hey, what's going on? Didn't you say that all the people living here are Chinese trainees or Taiwanese?"
Another cop also started complaining, "You really are, too." Too ignorant, right? Koreans also celebrate the Spring Festival. If you look at their dinner again, do the trainees and Taiwanese have such financial means?"
Unexpectedly, the administrator felt that he was at a loss because of this, not only did he no longer force them to move, but also replaced it with a smiling face.
In the end, as long as they ensure that the garbage is sorted carefully, don't make trouble for him anymore.
However, although the contradiction this time was resolved peacefully and smoothly, in fact, in the "sugar heart" of them, they felt even more aggrieved and panicked in their hearts.
As soon as the police and administrator had left, everyone couldn't help but start scolding.
"Dog's day, it's really dog-eyed and low-looking!"
"little Japanese, it's all cheap bones, and the daring Goryeo stick is your ancestor!"
"Little devils, you are all the gray grandsons of the eighteenth generation of Chinese people!"
Only "Sugar Heart" was relatively calm, and he didn't follow them to howl wildly.
It's just that as soon as she opened her mouth, it was a real revenge.
"It's normal to have evil fire in your heart, but you can't get rid of it just by scolding. Simply, I propose that after this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, we all go to 'Ginza' for a stroll. Even his sixty-six children's goods, he also had some fun with the Japanese. Who let them get under the New Year, let us not be happy, no one can think about it......"
This time, everyone is interested. Each of them raised their glasses.
"yes, yes! Give them some color. We're not vegetarians. ”
"Hey, good advice. The Japanese police are so idle that they reach out for everything, and I really don't like it. ”
"Roller, your kid will be able to 'slaughter' ten 'skins' today, and Brother Ming'er will give you 100,000 yen of New Year's money. ”
"Oh, it's so difficult, the Japanese are so stupid, they only know that thieves are burglars. We're going to pick up all the wallets on that street......"
In the end, the five wine glasses collided together, and the bold words came spontaneously.
"Cheers! Bomb Tokyo!"
The second group has been opened, group number: 608640021
