Chapter 17: Childhood Myself

On the first day of the new year, the sky was incomparably bright and blue. In the Shinjuku area, www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion is undergoing a reconstruction work, and huge construction equipment is being hoisted with steel columns to rebuild people's homes that have been destroyed by demons.

The female reporter stood in front of the camera and made an OK gesture, and then her crisp voice came out clearly through the TV station.

"The nightmare tragedy is over, and the traces left by the monster are still shocking, but what makes a greater impression is the Superman of Light, the Superman who disappeared after defeating the terrifying demon, who is sacred? Will he appear in front of me again?"

In front of the huge screen in the city's commercial center, countless people stopped to watch the latest news reports, and one of the little girls called her mother sweetly and said, "It was Ultraman who saved me..."

The young mother rubbed the little girl's head, with doting in her eyes, and said softly, "Miku, he also saved us all." ”

"The children now call him Ultraman with great admiration!" As the female reporter's voice sounded, the scene of Nexter's battle was frozen in a moment, filling the entire big screen.

Suhara Sara wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and walked out of the crowd slowly, she didn't know why she was crying, but she was a little heartbroken and sad. She opened her purse and fixed her gaze on the small photograph in the purse. The photo was taken at the Baili base, and in the light of the setting sun, Tetsuya was showing a handsome smile, leaning on his fighter jet, and gesturing with a "V".

"Tetsuya... You're this... There is no one who keeps his promises..."

Somewhere in China, in a small village near the Huai River, blue light ions came with the wind, stayed on the shore in the moonlight, and slowly condensed into a black figure. Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, the cool moonlight, and the insects and birds chirping in the grass, Tetsuya felt at ease for the first time, he was no longer that plain smile, in the familiar countryside, he showed a childlike smile.

This is the land where I have never forgotten, and I live!

In the bright moonlight, Tetsuya slowly strolled through the village, like a lonely soul returning home. Tetsuya looked at the scenery in front of him, as if he had returned to his childhood, at that time, he was still an elementary school student, his grades were very good, and the teacher would always read his essays in class. And I have a cousin who is the same age as herself, but she has a clumsy brain and is often punished by the teacher for copying texts. At that time, I would stay in front of the only TV in the house at night and happily watch cartoons such as Ultraman Leo and Blue Cat Naughty Three Thousand Questions, while my cousin was copying the text while secretly glancing at the TV. Those childhood times are still vivid, but they can't go back after all.

Walking through the small village at night, there was a sense of tranquility, and Tetsuya walked to the neighborhood of his childhood home, where the lights were still lit. Tetsuya also had an impulse to go in and see if the person who lived in it now was his childhood self. But after thinking about it for a while, Tetsuya finally stopped, his eyes wandered on the house in his childhood memory, but he never dared to step in. When I was a child, my parents had already worked hard in Haizhu City, and I lived with my cousin and grandmother. Tetsu didn't dare to go in, he was afraid that what he would see was someone else who was a complete stranger. What he was even more afraid of was the strange and vigilant gaze of his relatives when they saw him.

On the opposite side of the house is the neighbor's bungalow, and because my grandmother is a harmonious person, the relationship between the two families is quite good. There are three daughters in the family there, but there is no son, and the one who plays with him the best is the youngest daughter, named Lin Bingyun. In this whole village, there are many families surnamed Lin, who belong to the ethnic group whose ancestors came from Shandong and lived and settled here during the war.

Tetsuya looked at it nostalgically, and was about to leave, but there was a trace of reluctance in his heart. I crossed the strait by myself, returned to my hometown, and left after seeing it so far away, I was still a little reluctant in my heart.

"It doesn't matter who lives in the house... I'm going to see it with my own eyes!"

Having made up his mind, Tetsuya immediately stopped hesitating, he pushed open the door, and looked at the layout of the courtyard, a sense of familiarity welled up from the bottom of his heart. In the courtyard, on the left-hand side there are many fruit trees, among which there are two persimmon trees, and in the center of it, a pomegranate tree, and in the corner closest to the house, a grapevine. When I was a child, I would always pick pomegranates to eat, and I would also covet the unripe grapes on the vine, and I couldn't wait to pick them when they were still young and fill them in my mouth.

In the middle of it, there is no cement in the black earth, and on his right hand side, there is a water drawing well, where my grandmother will always wash her clothes, and if the water full of phosphorus is dumped, there will be a lot of earthworms turning out of the soil, or red or black little bodies turning in the dirt. As a child, I was not afraid at all, grabbing them all into plastic bottles, pouring soapy water into them, and watching them struggle inside. Thinking about it now, Tetsu can't help but feel a little disgusted. Next to the well, there is a cement stone staircase at the top of the bungalow, and the stone staircase turns to form a space, where there are fat pigs in captivity for a day or two, and when I was young, I once fell from the stone ladder and fell into the pigsty, and my grandmother screamed and rushed in to save herself from under the pig's mouth.

Everything in my childhood, every bit of my life, is something in my memory, and everything comes out of my mind at this time.

"Are you...?" a timid voice came from behind him.

Hearing this familiar voice, Tetsuya turned around and saw his childhood self.

When I was very young, I was a very well-behaved child, and I was often made to cry by other people's children, because I rarely saw my parents, and I lived with my cousin with my grandmother, so in my childhood memories they were not deeply impressed, but had a deeper affection for my grandmother.

There's a patient side in his personality.,I've discovered it since I was very young.,Maybe it's not obvious when you're a child.,It's fully manifested when you're older.。 That's a compromise with reality, ordinary children will cry and scream when they see what they want, although they have the same desire in their hearts, but they will always smile and refuse.

Those toys that glow and make sounds, those brightly colored clothes, those things that I wanted as a child, but I never had one until I grew up. I always smiled and compromised with life, when I was a child, I gradually became sensible and gradually grew up, but I still kept making this helpless compromise.

The moment he saw Tetsuya Ko, Tetsuya already knew what he needed to do, and he read his heart from his eyes. Yes, you need strength, not just now, right now. But when I was very young, in the depths of my mind, I always had that kind of thought, even if I was constantly compromising with reality, but I never forgot it.
