It's still early, and although it's raining heavily, there are still a lot of pedestrians braving the rain in the bustling areas of Tokyo.

People always have to live, no matter how heavy the rain is, some work still has to be done, and if you don't do it, some people may go hungry.

Tokyo, a city of lust and desire, is also inseparable from the blood and sweat of these workers at the bottom of society.

After driving for a while, he unknowingly drove to the vicinity of the school.

He is currently on leave, but according to news reports, because of the heavy rain for more than a week, nearly half of the schools in Tokyo have chosen to take a temporary holiday, especially national and public schools, even some private schools that pursue grades are bowing their heads in this bad weather - who knows if there is a storm brewing at sea, and it is still safe to stay at home at this time.

Kyoko Nohara and Rin Kamiizumi's girls' high school is on vacation.

However, Uesugi Kiyoshi's Haicheng Middle School is quite hard, and it is still in normal classes.

After stopping the car on the side of the road and being stunned for half a minute, Uesugi Kiyoshi decided to go in and have a look.

It's not yet noon, it's class time, and in the heavy rain, there is no one in the school at all, only he walks alone in the rain with an umbrella.

He didn't come to experience school life, in fact, the so-called college life now has little appeal to him.

Dance between the blades, fight against the life and death of ghosts and gods, uncover all the veils of the transcendent world, and learn which strange and fresh people, ghosts, and demons.

It's a lot more fun than studying.

The purpose of his hard work is very utilitarian, that is, to get a higher starting point in his career, and to have more chips and confidence when competing for status, power, wealth and partner.

It's cheesy and it's realistic.

The so-called society is nothing more than a whitewashed law of the jungle, and the law of the jungle still applies.

Therefore, after he found that the so-called academic qualifications and knowledge were useless in front of the ghosts and gods, he would persevere in using all methods to squeeze into the transcendent door.

Lonely and widowed in two lifetimes, his heart is not only to live, but also to live better than most people - this is his strongest desire before stepping into the extraordinary.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't go to the classroom, he didn't have many friends at school, and the agile thinking that had experienced the baptism of mirage, coupled with the learning experience of his previous life, the high school courses were not even an entry level for him.

The reason why he came here to hang around was because Yuichi Kudo's proposal a few days ago really aroused his interest.

Go and take the entrance exam... Isn't it a good idea?

If life is compared to a game, for players born in Japan, the achievement of "being admitted to Tokyo University" is also a diamond-level at the most, full of gold, which is the glory of the ancestors, and it is also one of the few ways for poor children to counterattack.

Of course, because of the difference in educational resources, it is really much more difficult for children from poor families to take this path than those from well-off families.

Uesugi Kiyoshi is fortunate to live again, according to his competitive nature, this kind of achievement is brushed easily, why don't you give it for nothing.

Now he is half of his body squeezed into the "elite" of Tokyo, and the people he knows and contacts are all big people, and he is not going to cheat for personal gain, but to find the teachers at the school to arrange and participate in the unified examination next spring, which is not too much.

By the way, we will discuss the issue of attendance - he doesn't want to waste time at school, practicing swords, catching ghosts, reading books, with a sharp blade in his hand, and a beautiful woman by his side, how is it not more comfortable than at school.

There were no difficulties along the way, and the teachers at the school were still very preferential to the top students, especially the set of tricks that Uesugi Kiyoshi gave him, and he drew two small exam papers during his leave, and within five minutes, he finished it faster than copying the answers, and when there were no mistakes, his homeroom teacher and the principal who heard the news and came to see this excellent student who finally came to the school once, were stunned.

Haicheng Middle School is a private school, and private schools want reputation and grades, and the small examination papers here are much more difficult than those in public schools, and there are quite a few questions that exceed the curriculum.

In Uesugi Kiyoshi: "If there is a student from Kaicheng Middle School who is admitted to Tokyo University in his second year of high school... It's going to be famous," and he didn't even ask Yuichi Kudo to do things, but he finalized the attendance rate and participation in next year's national examination - this year's exam has already been taken, so he can only wait until next year.

After talking about things, he chatted with the teacher who had high hopes for him for a while, and then he took his leave.

Although he has some leisure now, it is only temporary.

A few days ago, the positioning of the woman in the suit had entered the Sea of Japan, although it was still within the detection range of the Collectibles Association, but he always felt a little uneasy, those people's nests should not be in the sea, right?

Then he can't reach the whip.

Also, since the outer gods have been driven away, why does this rain still stop?

The accidents that happened in the Arakawa area before, the homicide, and the shadow of the huge creatures in the river, all pointed to the Arakawa sect, and they should be the ones behind the scenes, and they didn't run away.

But what's even stranger... The lord of the decent Arakawa, who is certified by the Hyakki picture scroll, met with Uesugi Kiyoshi not long ago.

So... Who is that sect embracing?

The outer god that Yui Kudo said?

But faith can't be faked, since the believers are fooled in the name of Arakawa, then the power of faith will not flow into other people's pockets, what are those people trying to do?

Do you do good deeds and do day jobs?

The questions were still round and round, Uesugi Kiyoshi rubbed his head helplessly, and there was nothing to do.

Now they are in a somewhat passive position, but it is not for nothing.

The young master Yamamoto who was caught, and the girl in the suit who let go, will be a good breakthrough.

As he was thinking about countermeasures, walking in the rain with an umbrella, the swordsman's keen sense of smell made him feel that someone was blocking him.

Looking up at it a little casually, Uesugi Kiyoshi froze slightly.

Well... It's kind of familiar.

The hair is all colorful, like a color palette that has been overturned, some perversely show "personality", the school uniform is open-buttoned, the expression is flowing, and the person headed by is tall and big, and the face is a little fierce, of course, it also makes Uesugi Kiyoshi a little familiar.

Well, the standard bad teenager dress.

Although it's class time, but these bad tasks are not classes, Uesugi Kiyoshi happened to pass by the door of the club activity building, and was met by a few sharp-eyed bad people, and reported their boss.

The one who stands in front of Uesugi Kiyoshi is the apex of Haicheng High School's badness, and he is also the user of the entire first floor of the club activity building, he set up a club called "Dou Wuluo", gathered a group of bad people, but he didn't go to cause trouble, he held it in the activity room to practice boxing, fighting, and exercising, in his words, it was "to enhance strength".

Because this is also considered to be self-contained, there are no teachers who bother to care about them.

As for his name, it was on Uesugi Kiyoshi's lips, but he didn't remember it after all.

This person Uesugi Kiyoshi definitely knew.

When he first saw Nohara Apricot, he had a face to face with this bad one, he asked Nohara Kyoko to collect protection money, Uesugi Kiyoshi is not very resistant to this unspoken rule, trying to calm things down, but this bad does not know each other, and he has to find fault, but he was rewarded with a few punches, lost face, injured Lizi, and fled in embarrassment.

Uesugi Kiyoshi originally thought that he might retaliate in the future, after all, it was said to be a family of extreme paths, but in the end, it was gone, and after that, he was busy with the affairs of the Collectibles Association, and Nohara Kyoko was also asked by him to find someone to go through the transfer procedures and go to be with Rin, and this person was gradually forgotten by Uesugi Qing.

Now goodbye, he is still quite emotional.

If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have been able to meet Kyoko Nohara.

But looking at his menacing posture, is he here for revenge?

It's kind of boring.

Uesugi Kiyoshi thought helplessly - he is not at the same level as these bad now, and it is not much more difficult for him to deal with these bad things than if a person steps on an ant to death.

Just as he swept the bad face in front of him with a playful expression, smiled a little awkwardly and politely, racking his brain to think of his name...

The tall and unscrupulous leader suddenly burst into applause.

"Uesugi-san! Hello! ”

He bowed a standard ninety-degree bow, pinched his waist with both hands, and his voice was so loud that he didn't care about the torrential rain that drenched him.

This posture Uesugi Kiyoshi is too familiar.

The gangsters under Maki Towen said hello when they saw him, the "sword ghost of Towen".

This is the rule in the extreme, the louder the voice, the more respect you have for the boss, this bad learning has a good look.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was a little stunned by this, he still smiled awkwardly, and hesitated: "Ah... You are..."

The bad boss heard Uesugi Kiyoshi's hesitation, and quickly raised his head, and a somewhat exaggerated smile appeared on his meaty face.

"In Shimotosaka Tiger, we once met, Uesugi-san."

"Oh! Tosaka, ah... It's been a long time. ”

Looking at it like this, it's not here to fight, stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Uesugi Kiyoshi guessed the intention of the Tosaka Tiger, and casually greeted him.

"Yes, we met at the school gate..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Tosaka Tiger shake his head like a rattle.

"Please don't mention that incident again, Uesugi-san, that's my fault, I beg your pardon."

"And that wasn't the last time we met."

"Uesugi-san... You probably didn't notice me. ”

"But... When you single-handedly entered the headquarters of the Dongwen Society and suppressed the extreme cadres of the assessment room with an iron fist... I'm here too! ”

“...”

Uesugi Kiyoshi patted his head, and some blurry images came to mind.

It seems that there is such a thing, but he had too many things to do at that time, and he didn't pay attention to such small things.

But he immediately frowned, and said suspiciously: "Tosaka... At your age, you can even participate in the assessment of the Towen Society? ”

"Your family is a subordinate group of the Dongwen Society? I don't mean to look down on you, it's just... Anyway, it's supposed to be your father, right? ”

The tall Tosaka Tiger smiled bitterly, and he didn't mean to hide it.

"I'll make you laugh, Uesugi-san, it's not a secret, at that time, the situation in the Tobunkai was turbulent, and my family's Tosaka Group was also affected, my father was attacked, received multiple knife wounds, and went to the hospital unconscious, and the Tosaka Group was represented by my uncle."

"My uncle has always been at odds with my father, actually... When my father was assassinated, I always thought..."

"Forget it, I don't have any proof."

"Uncle is a timid person, he felt that Dong Wenyu held an evaluation, and there was no good banquet, so he sent me to participate, and I was reluctant, but I couldn't let my father's Tosaka group be looked down upon, so I gritted my teeth and went."

"It's a blessing in disguise, I'm inconspicuous, sitting in the corner, near the window - you came in from the periphery all the way, and I was lucky enough to see the scene of countless weirdos in black."

"You are really as brave as a ghost, and Dongwen's sword ghost is worthy of its name!"

The compliments were filtered out, and the rest of the words came out, and Uesugi Kiyoshi immediately made up a lot of plots in his brain.

It's no wonder that Tosaka Tiger is still nesting in school, his father is hospitalized, and Tosaka Group is controlled by his uncle, he is estimated to have suffered a lot of exclusion, maybe there will be assassination, so he can only stay in school, like a lost dog.

Uesugi Qing didn't show much sighing, it's too normal for people in the extreme path to be injured and killed, and you don't see a generation of heroes Dongwenjue, and it is still inevitable to die.

He was about to deal with a few sentences casually, and when he hurried home, he suddenly saw Tosaka Tiger gritting his teeth, and fell to his knees with a bang, and gave him a more standard earthen seat, gritting his teeth and speaking in a muffled voice.

"I'm sorry, Uesugi-san, although I know my request is unreasonable, but... Only you can help me. ”

"Please save the Tosaka group and save my father!"

Uesugi stroked his chin and narrowed his eyes.

"I know that you are the eldest lady's swordsmanship instructor, and thanks to you, the Dongwen Society will return to the hands of the eldest lady again, if you speak... I will definitely make my uncle retreat! ”

"My father's condition in the hospital has gotten worse and worse, and I think there may be an uncle involved, but I can't do anything about it."

"I... I... It's just fighting! ”

Tosaka Tiger leaned down again, his forehead pressed against the cold rain.

"Please help me, I will spend the rest of my life serving you."

To be honest, Tosaka Tiger himself was a little sorry for this.

He had a grudge against Uesugi Liquidation, but now he has no way out.

The life and death of his father is uncertain, and his uncle is eyeing him, but it is a bit like the situation of Dongwen Maki at the beginning.

There is no home to go back, there is brute strength, but can only be incompetent and angry, all of which makes Tosaka Tiger's mentality on the verge of collapse, and he can only vent his depression with a sandbag in the school's club room.

Coincidentally, he happened to see Kiyoshi Uesugi who rarely came to school once.

Knowing his identity, status and strength, Tosaka Tiger was like seeing a life-saving straw, so he simply used the dead horse as a live horse doctor, regardless of whether he succeeded or not, he came to ask for it first.

There is one thing he is not exaggerating, in his heart, Uesugi Kiyoshi, who killed the Dongwen Society with one person and one sword, is really brave like a ghost and god, and they are bad worshippers and strong people, so they eat this set.

Uesugi Kiyoshi listened to this story that was not new, but he didn't really want to meddle with it.

He doesn't owe Tosaka Tiger, and Tosaka Tiger is not a legal Lori who is explosive and all-powerful in housework, what the hell is he doing.

He is just a weak, pitiful, and helpless newcomer to the transcendent new swordsman, and he is not a compassionate Guanyin, who purifies all sentient beings.

There are many more miserable people in this world than Tosaka Tiger, and he can still help everyone?

Unrealistic.

But he suddenly thought about it, and an idea popped into his heart.

His voice became very calm, and he looked down at Tosaka Tiger who was sitting under the earth, and he didn't mean to let him get up.

"Tosaka, I've heard... Are you popular? ”

Tosaka Tiger raised his head, listening to this tone, he seemed to feel that there was a play, and nodded busily.

"Yes, Uesugi-san, don't look at me like this, the whole of Tokyo is bad, I've basically dealt with it, those few of the top universities in Tokyo, I have people who can talk, if there's anything I can do for you, please don't tell me politely."

"If you can help me through this, Tosaka is willing to be your most loyal minions."

In the second half of the sentence, Uesugi Kiyoshi actually doesn't care.

He doesn't need some third-rate gangsters as minions, it's useless.

But...

Rubbing the warm jade of the green light hanging around his neck, Uesugi Kiyoshi's smile became mysterious.

"Hmm..."

"Tosaka..."

"You... Religious? ”
