In the evening of that day, Nakato Endo finished his training and walked home alone.

To be honest, he didn't feel much about the word "homecoming".

For children who have been admitted to juvenile detention centers, the state will appoint a relative as a guardian, and the relative must submit a report to the relevant management authority every month.

This report can be exchanged for remuneration from the governing body.

That's why Endo's uncle and aunt let Endo live at home until now.

When Endo graduates from high school, his uncle's guardianship mission will end, and Endo will become a homeless wanderer.

No matter who thinks he will become a criminal again, and then stay in prison for the rest of his life.

Nakato Endo walked slowly, and although he didn't want to admit it, returning to the place called home would take him breathless.

But he must go back, and if the report is written on the night, perhaps even the present level of freedom will be deprived by the authorities.

He had to go back, to that place that couldn't be called home at all, to endure the ridicule and stares of his uncle and aunt and that little nephew.

But he couldn't beat these bastards yet, so he could only let them attack him verbally.

What "hurry up and become a criminal again when you are eighteen years old", what "the prison bed is probably much more comfortable than our house", what "if you want to be a strong * girl, don't dirty our house"......

Endo Chuto planned very seriously, and when he graduated from high school, he would beat his uncle's family violently, and try to control the violent beating to the same extent within ten years of his sentence.

And then how long can you escape, how long can you escape.

Or join Extreme Road and become a professional thug.

To do this, he had to comprehend the unity of mind and technique that he had seen, and he had to realize that technique.

Only then can you get stronger.

Only by becoming strong can we survive in this world.

Endo Nakato has never seen the "gentle world", he has never envied those who live in the sun, he only feels that the sun is dazzling and scorching, and it is the most annoying existence in the world.

He loves the night, and his world is the night, and there is thick darkness everywhere.

Suddenly, Nakato Endo stopped and looked at the two adults in trench coats who appeared in front of him.

He made a judgment based on experience: "I haven't participated in any activities recently, Detective San, you're just afraid that you will return empty-handed." ”

"We are not criminal police, of course we will pretend to be criminal police from time to time." One of the men in the trench coat stepped forward and handed out his business card to Nakato Endo.

Endo Nakato looked at it and asked suspiciously, "Yamadan Fanming?" Real estate players? I don't remember any real estate I had, the dilapidated house belonged to my uncle. ”

"In Japan, if you don't know what you do, and you need to travel around and meet people, the best thing to do is to be a real estate operator." Yamadan Fan Ming shrugged, "You understand when I say that, right?" ”

Nakato Endo looked at the two again.

The light of the setting sun came from the left, illuminating half of Yamadan Pham Minh's face, while the remaining half of his face echoed the growing darkness of the night.

"Say, what's the matter? I had to get home before the music started, or my uncle would have to report it to the authorities. ”

After Endo finished speaking, the loudspeaker of the district office in the distance began to play Dvořák's "To the New World".

Hearing this tune, it's time for the little ones to go home.

In order to scare children, adults in Kyoto often tell children that after this song, the ghosts will come out to hunt the disobedient wild children, and if they don't go home when they hear this song, they may never return home.

Endo Chuto planned to bypass the two trench coat men: "I'm going home." ”

Yamadan Pham Minh took a step to the side, blocked the Endo Nakato who was about to make a detour, and said, "We have already greeted your uncle first, and he originally had a big opinion, but after seeing the money we gave, he shut up. ”

Endo looked at the trench coat man, but he didn't really want to go back to that home, so after two seconds, he gave up being a good boy and chose to stay in the coming night.

"Okay, I'll hear what you want me to do."

"Let's find a family restaurant, you're hungry too, talk while eating."

Yamadan Pham Minh said as he walked up.

Endo Nakato followed, while the man in the trench coat, who had not spoken, walked last.

Endo is quite familiar with this kind of formation, and this is how it is when the criminal police want to talk to him, holding him one after the other, for fear that he will do something.

When he arrived at the family restaurant, Yamaduan Fan Minh ordered some food casually, and when the waiter left with the menu, he went straight to the point.

"We hope you can break someone's hand in a foul play at the Kendo National Conference."

"It's easy," said Endo, "as long as you can arrange the schedule, let me run into him." ”

"No, we're not going to schedule it, but as long as you can keep winning, you should be able to meet him in the individual finals."

When Endo Nakato heard this, his expression brightened: "Is he so strong?" What is your name? ”

"Kiryu and Ma. Here's a picture of him. Yamada Fan Ming pushed the photo in front of Nakato Endo.

Endo picked up the photo, looked at it and shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't seen it, I've never heard of someone with that name when I was in Tokyo." It doesn't make sense, if there were people of the same age who were as talented as me, I would have at least heard of his name. ”

"He just recently burst into flames and dismantled the Kanto Union in the blink of an eye - you know the Kanto Union, right?"

Endo Nakato was taken aback by the sudden break of Yamadan Fan Ming: "He dismantled the Kanto Union? ”

"No, no, no, no," Yamadan Van Minh hurriedly denied, "I'm just checking to see if you know about the Kanto Union." This Kiryu and Ma dismantled the Kanto Union under a three-generation organization.

"Although it is not an organization of the martial arts faction, it is the group with the strongest upward momentum and is about to be promoted to the second generation.

"Before that, he also had a draw with the Geumsan Group, a well-known martial arts faction."

Endo Nakato was visibly excited: "Just one person? ”

"Just one person." Yamadan Pham Minh nodded.

"Then this Kiryu and Ma must have understood the knack of integrating heart and technology. I'm going to have a real showdown with him. ”

The rules of modern competitive kendo are like ropes that bind the hands and feet of a swordsman, and Endo Nakato has never liked this set of rules.

"Then, it's up to you and your four companions."

"Guangshan them?"

"Yes, I will hire the five of you and provide you with special bamboo knives. It depends on the situation, and it is possible that I will still do something on the spot to create opportunities for you. This is the deposit. ”

Yamadan Pham Minh took out a brown paper envelope from the pocket of his trench coat and placed it on the table.

Endo Nakato directly accepted the envelope and didn't even look inside.

He didn't care about the money.

He just wants to have a fight with this Kiryu and Ma to see who is good.

Swordsmen need to step over enemy corpses in order to grow—these were Endo's last words to his master on his deathbed.

So, he wants to step over the corpses of Kiryu and Ma and become a stronger swordsman.

**

After the talks, Yamadan, Pham Minh and Shiko Yama Hideki returned to the car, and both breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't know if we don't meet," Shiziyama Hideki lit a cigarette for himself, "You're looking for a scourge, I think he's going to kill him." ”

"Isn't that just right? When this kind of person is interrogated, he will say in a dignified manner, "That's right, I'm going to kill Kiryu and Ma," and the prosecutors like this kind of thing the most, after all, as long as the prisoner confesses his guilt, he can be convicted 100%. ”

Shanduan Fan Ming shook his head: "I can't understand the thoughts of these martial arts maniacs, not at all. ”

"So, it's because you can't understand that you gave up pursuing martial arts?"

"No, I decided to give up martial arts after seeing the power of shotguns, which can only deal with pistols at best, and have no chance of winning against spears. Americans have long discovered that the Chicago typewriter is the ultimate form of martial arts. ”

Shizishan Hideki nodded: "Makes sense." But do you really plan to create opportunities for them at the national competition? ”

"It depends, if they're just a little bit away from getting Kiryu and Ma, I don't mind causing a fire alarm or something to cause chaos. I'm good at this. ”

"It sounds like the client of this commission has given a lot." Shi Zishan Xiushu glanced at Fan Ming of Shanduan, "I want to sit on the ground with you and start the price, my money as a driver in the past two days has to be doubled." ”

Regarding Shizi Yama Hideki's joke, Yamadan Fan Ming just smiled and did not respond.

Hideki Tokiyama continued: "Who did this Kiryu and Ma provoke to let him spend such a lot of money to hire you. ”

He ...... Robbed the fiancée of the parliamentarian's son. ”

"it." Shiziyama Hideki laughed, "That's going to kill him." ”
