Chapter Twenty-Eight: Good News, Bad News

Uesugi Kiyoshi was not slow, and he came to the apartment building, but it took a few seconds.

There was smoke billowing from his house, and there was a flickering fire, and a burnt smell mixed with the smell of gasoline broke through the rain curtain and reached Uesugi Kiyoshi's nostrils.

Uesugi Kiyoshi's face was gloomy and scary, he scolded in a low voice, and wanted to rush into the corridor and save people first.

Before he could take a step, he heard a familiar cry from the apartment.

It was Rin Kamiizumi's voice, and he couldn't get it wrong.

In the next second, I heard a loud sound like a landslide, and the door of the balcony of Uesugi Kiyoshi's apartment with the concrete blocks that had been pulled out, driven by a huge force, smashed the guardrail of the balcony and fell straight into the alley, making a dull sound.

The flames burning on the wooden door were mercilessly extinguished by the torrential rain.

His small balcony was half shattered by Rin Kamizumi's leg!

Then, Rin Kamiizumi's voice was still a little excited.

"Quick, everyone jump down, this is the first floor, it's okay, I'm responsible for the break!"

Obviously in the sea of fire, Rin Kamiizumi didn't realize it, like a team leader teacher who took children on an outing, arranging the next actions in an orderly manner, and his voice was even a little excited.

The first to come out was Higashimi Maki, who was carrying Kagura on her back, and jumped down without hesitation, and was quickly supported by Kamisi who came after Uesugi Kiyoshi and landed safely.

As soon as she saw Shencheng, Dongwen Zhenxi's eyes turned red again, and she choked up and sobbed a few times, but forcibly held back her tears.

Shencheng saw that Dongwen Maki was really fine, his hanging heart was put down, his expression calmed down, and he let the eldest lady lie on his shoulder, with a rare tenderness in his eyes.

The next Nohara Kyoko to come out, she was suddenly frightened and frightened, but after being pushed to the balcony by Kamizumi Rin, she saw Uesugi Kiyoshi waiting with her arms open below, and suddenly her heart swelled with great courage, and she jumped down with it, completing an excellent dribble collision, which made Uesugi Kiyoshi warm and fragrant nephrite embrace.

Just when the atmosphere here was a little charming, a black shadow broke through the fire with thick smoke, and even completed a very standard 360-degree turn in the air, and the last golden rooster was independent and landed perfectly.

The most outrageous thing is that she is still holding a wooden box in her hand, and after the complicated action just now, this box is already a little overwhelmed, revealing several thread-bound ancient books.

After Rin Kamiizumi landed, he jumped on one leg, holding the box in his hand high, and asked for credit from Uesugi Kiyoshi.

"Qing! You see, I rescued this, this is Daddy's book collection, right? I think I've seen it. ”

She has been walking on one leg, it seems that she didn't mean to play tricks, and the other leg is hanging a little weakly, probably injured.

"But I haven't finished my meal yet!"

"Ah, the apricots are amazing!"

Rin Umiizumi's big eyes were full of stars, and he looked at Nohara Kyoko in Uesugi Kiyoshi's arms with some expectation.

"The ginger roasted pork is delicious, and the taste of miso soup is also very good, but the amount is too small, I still want to eat a few more bites and then run away, or rescue the food first, it is the apricot who said that he will make it for me again, these books are treasures of the Qing Dynasty, so I reluctantly chose to save these books."

Uesugi Kiyoshi was relieved to see that no one was injured - although he was a little distressed and guilty about Rin's injury, he was not too worried, the so-called improvement in physical strength also enhanced the ability to recover from injuries, and if someone else was replaced, it might hurt his muscles and bones for a hundred days, and if he replaced her, I am afraid that he would be able to heal almost in one day and one night.

He let go of Nohara Kyoko first, patted her little head comfortingly, and opened his voice very softly.

"Apricot, don't be afraid, it's okay, I'm here."

The reason why he said this was because he saw Nohara's body trembling, wiping tears silently.

"I... I wasn't afraid. ”

"I just feel sorry for Uesugi-kun, my aunt said I was an ominous person, my parents died early because of me, and after being adopted by my aunt, my uncle's work was not going well, and I didn't have any friends at school, and my uncle had that kind of accident, and in the end, Uesugi-kun's house was burned..."

"Woo..."

In the end, Kyoko Nohara finally couldn't help crying.

"It's all because of me, I'm sorry, Uesugi-kun!"

"I caused Uesugi-kun to lose his home..."

She was afraid that Uesugi Kiyoshi would not want her, and she felt that she had just ushered in a dream new life, and she suffered this change, probably because of God's will, and she was sad for a while, and she was very sad - Nohara Kyoko, who was used to being under the fence and was treated coldly, was extremely insecure.

Uesugi Kiyoshi couldn't cry or laugh a little, this little white rabbit's ability to take the pot is not bad.

He gently patted Nohara Kyoko's back and comforted, "It's none of your business, Kyoko, I explained your uncle's matter to you, it's not your fault." ”

"These people are even coming at me, and you are in danger, so I have to say I'm sorry."

"Thank you for reminding Rin to help me save those lone books, those are the kendo classics that Master gave me, if they are burned, I will be very troubled."

"I haven't lost my home, Apricot, it's just an apartment, a place to live."

"A place where you have a family is a home."

"We're going to have a bigger home right away."

Uesugi Kiyoshi's gentle eyes attracted Nohara's attention like a magnet, causing her to stop sobbing and bow her head with some red earlobes.

She has no opinions, her biggest wish in this life is to find a husband who is good to her to marry, and then do laundry and cook, husband and children, to be a qualified full-time housewife, her ideal university is Tokyo Women's University, which is a place that specializes in training high-level housewives - also known as wealthy ladies, and the courses in it even have bride practice.

Now that she was persuaded by her favorite Uesugi Kiyoshi, she suddenly felt that all misfortune had flown away, and her mood immediately cleared, but she was still a little afraid in her heart.

Seeing that Nohara Kyoko's mood has stabilized a lot, Uesugi Kiyoshi set her sights on her junior sister who has made great contributions.

"Rin, are your legs okay?"

Rin Kamiizumi waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Hey, little injury, I used to play hide and seek with Ichitaro and them, and when I fell from the fifth floor, the injury was much worse than this, and I will be fine if I sleep!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi was hanging and couldn't hold back the desire to complain.

Falling from the fifth floor is a minor injury?

Okay.

You have a lot of strength, you have the final say.

"Have you unchained you? No, with your physical fitness when you unshackled, such a leg can't hurt you. ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi was a little puzzled.

"Ah, no, it happened suddenly, and I kicked with all my strength before I could untie the shackles."

"As a result, the strength exploded, but the strength of the body was still sealed by the shackles, and I was injured, I'm fine, Qing, don't worry about me."

Rin Kamiizumi gave a thumbs up and smiled brightly, like a hot-blooded fool in anime.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't hold back in the end.

"You have time to think about saving food or books first, and even want to take two more bites of food, but you don't have time to uncover a charm, right?"

"You have a snack!"

Looking at Rin Ueizumi's still heartless smile, Uesugi Kiyoshi sighed weakly.

He didn't want to say anything more, today is thanks to this invincible junior sister in every sense, otherwise things may develop for the worse, he and Kamizumi Hidekawa are called master and apprentice, like father and son, take Kamizumi Rin as a family, and don't have to say thank you, just smiled reluctantly, made a promise to let Apricot make her a supper, and gave up interrogating this junior sister who was smiling again, and turned his gaze to Higashiwen Maki.

"Miss Dongwen, what's the matter, please tell me, Rin's stupid can't tell me clearly."

"I want to see who wants to break me down and kill me completely!"

Dongwen Maki is worthy of being a famous lady, she is emotionally stable very quickly, and she responds immediately when she hears the words.

"Uesugi-kun, not long after you left the door, there was a clanging sound outside the door, and there was a pungent smell of gasoline."

"I felt something was wrong, so I went to the door to check, and it looked like someone had nailed it from the outside."

"These people poured gasoline on the door and prepared to burn the house, but the fire at the door was burning so fast that it couldn't be rushed out, and at the same time someone threw Molotov cocktails and gasoline bottles into the apartment through the window, intending to burn us here."

"Fortunately, Rin shot quickly and accurately, knocking the gasoline bottle away, and the Molotov cocktail only ignited the balcony door, and Rin kicked and smashed the door and guardrail, shouting that we jumped off."

"Here's how it happened."

After speaking, Maki Tobun bowed solemnly.

"Uesugi-kun, I'm really sorry that these people may also be uncles..."

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't care about this, he hacked to death the generals of the Twin Ghost Group, and the man in black also killed nearly a hundred, and Dong Wenyu has long been a mortal enemy, and it is not strange to be found at the door, but he always feels that Dong Wenyu has been driving the secret ritual to do things, and suddenly uses some mortal means, which is not very adaptable.

He looked around and asked with hidden anger, "What about the arsonist?" All gone? ”

Tobun Maki nodded a little ashamedly.

"I'm sorry, I patronized and took care of Kagura, and I didn't have time to chase people, otherwise I should be able to catch a few alive, those arsonists seem to be ordinary people, not extraordinary."

Uesugi nodded with a cold face, probably already having a number in his heart.

He was just about to deal with what was in front of him when he heard some hurried footsteps.

Turning around, Kana Yamazaki walked over with two policemen and a young man with a somewhat embarrassed figure.

"Uesugi-san, these people panicked and ran in the direction of our sentry, but unfortunately we have too few colleagues left, only one of them was caught, and it should be one of the arsonists."

"Do you want to interrogate him? Or will it be left to us? ”

Kana Yamazaki had a full view of what happened just now, she naturally knew that Uesugi was set on fire and suffered heavy losses, and now she caught one, so she hurriedly sent it to Uesugi Kiyoshi.

Uesugi Kiyoshi's frowning brows stretched a little, he nodded politely, grabbed the young man's neck, and pulled him over roughly, while expressing his gratitude.

"Doing me a great favor, Officer Yamazaki."

"I'll do it, I don't have to bother you."

The embarrassed young man was handcuffed, but his expression was a little presumptuous and arrogant, and he cursed and scolded in his mouth, without a few good words.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't say anything, and when he came up, he slapped him, slapped half of his face, and plugged all those cursed words back into his throat by the way.

"Who told you to come?"

Uesugi asked five words simply, his tone was cold, and the palm that grabbed the young man's neck gradually became stronger.

"Are you fucking crazy? Do you dare to hit me? I'm going to complain to you, I'm going to get a lawyer! I'm looking for a journalist! ”

"The police beat people and abused law-abiding citizens!"

"You wait, you will be ruined if I don't tell you!"

This man seems to be an old oilman, if it were an ordinary policeman, he would really be able to be scared by him.

Police beatings and media hype are indeed enough to ruin the career future of a grassroots police officer.

Uesugi Kiyoshi doesn't mean to get used to his problems, he's in a bad mood right now.

Although it doesn't matter, this is his home after all.

The place he chose by himself, the contract was negotiated between him and the landlord himself, and the rent was earned by him little by little.

As a result, it was burned to the ground.

He can't show anger or sadness, because it's easy to infect other people, and there's no need for that.

But the anger he suppressed in his heart will not be extinguished, but will grow higher and higher.

Coincidentally, an unlucky egg was delivered to the door.

Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded expressionlessly and grinned.

"Don't say yes, do you? Tough cookie? ”

The arsonist scolded with a red face, and spat out a large number of words that were about to be silenced.

Uesugi Kiyoshi let go of his hand, took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, and just lent his mobile phone to Maki Higashifumi to call, he copied it into his pocket, but he was lucky not to be burned.

He turned on the camera, pointed it at the arsonist youth, and said, "It's okay, if you don't say it, you won't say it." ”

"Come, smile, don't be angry, it's not good for your health."

The arsonist young man thought that Uesugi Kiyoshi was frightened by his threat, and he was even more arrogant, and he really laughed, and the swear words in his mouth kept coming.

A shutter sound sounded, and Uesugi Kiyoshi looked at the scolding figure on his phone and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, with a lightning strike, he grabbed the arsonist young man's head, and stood with a horse step, exerting all his strength, so that his head made intimate contact with the wall behind him.

With a muffled thud, the man's head exploded on the wall like a broken watermelon, and the red and white colors snag and crawled on the dilapidated wall, washed down by the rain, leaving only a disgusting smell and a corpse whose voice stopped abruptly and his body crashed to the ground.

With the current strength of Sugi Kiyoshi, it is not very difficult to kill someone with one punch.

He stretched out his palm, took advantage of the rain to wash away the slimy blood and brains that had been splashed on his hands, and smiled regretfully at the arsonist's corpse.

"Look, I'm talking about it."

"Being angry is not good for your health."

Shaking his hand, he turned his eyes to Kana Yamazaki and said, "Throw it outside, and deal with it with those black suits, it's considered to be the same party." ”

"Yuichi, I'll go back and say that I won't make it difficult for you, thank you, Officer Yamazaki."

"I still have something to trouble you, they burned my house, it may affect the rest of the households, please help me deal with the follow-up matters, as for compensation, I will take care of it later."

Seeing Kana Yamazaki nodding in agreement, Uesugi counted his phone a few times, opened LINE, found Yuichi Kudo's name in the few friends list, and sent the photo he had just taken.

Then, he made a direct phone call.

A few seconds later, the familiar man's voice came out of his phone.

"Yo, Qing, it's really rare for you to call me, what's the matter, not long after we separated, you missed me?"

This is exactly the voice of Yuichi Kudo, who has just left.

"Don't make a fuss, get down to business."

"I just sent you a photo, help me find out whose person this is, I think it's Dong Wenyu's person, but I'm not sure."

"I'm sorry for you, they burned my house, they threw peaches, and I have to repay them."

"You bother too much, I'm afraid that someone will want to add fuel to the fire and worsen my relationship with Dong Wenyu... You know. ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi thinks that this may be a game under Dongwen Jue.

With the deeds of this Dongwen snake, it is not impossible to do such a thing.

Anyway, this kind of fire can't burn the transcendental, his daughter will definitely be fine, but if something happens to Xingzi, he will inevitably cut off Dong Wenyu's head to take revenge, with his character, this is an endless blood feud.

This is reasonable, but unlikely.

Because if Uesugi Kiyoshi finds out the truth, this revenge will not only be against Dong Wenyu.

He's... Surely there will be retribution.

Whoever does it to him, he will definitely retaliate back.

Even if it's Master's friend... It's no exception!

Yuichi Kudo's brain is more lively than Uesugi Kiyoshi, and he immediately understood what Uesugi Kiyoshi meant, and his voice became a little serious.

"I understand, I'll check it right away, and I'll tell you the results when I have the results."

Uesugi Kiyoshi pondered for a few seconds and asked, "Where are you now?" ”

"Me? I'm on my way back to the Guild, and I'm going to escort back the corpses of these secret rites. ”

"What? Do you need me to find you? ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi thought for a moment and refused, "No, no need." ”

"We should meet later, and we'll talk about that then."

"First of all, hang up."

Yuichi Kudo, who was on the other side, was stunned for half a second when he heard this, and his tone suddenly became meaningful.

"Well, okay, that's... See you later. ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi hung up the phone, walked up to Maki Higashi, organized the language, and frowned.

"Miss Dongwen, I have some things to deal with."

"This Miss Shencheng has also arrived, and my obligation to protect you has been fulfilled."

"I am a person who will repay his kindness and revenge, your father is kind to my master, I keep it in mind, the favor that the master owes, I will pay him back."

"I blocked a bullet for you, how can I settle it in two, I don't owe you."

"But..."

"If you want to take revenge on Dong Wenyu, I may be able to help you when you figure out today's matter."

"The next time we meet, though, you'll have to give me a reason to help you."

"What can you give me?"

"There is no such thing as a free lunch, and there is no help that you deserve, you should understand this, right?"

After listening to Uesugi Kiyoshi's words, her expression was a little complicated, she bowed, wanting to say something, but she felt that the words of simple thanks had been said enough, and she looked pale and weak again, so she simply didn't say anything.

"I understand, Uesugi-kun, this is a matter of course, and I will think carefully about it, and I look forward to meeting you next time."

Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded slightly, quite satisfied with Maki Higashi's attitude.

He had seen too many young men of fifteen or sixteen, extremely egoistic, spoiled, and so righteous that they felt justified in helping others, and did not even say a word of thanks afterwards, as if everyone owed him.

Although Dongwen Maki is a little stubborn and naΓ―ve, at least his personality is not bad, and he is sensible.

If this arson case has nothing to do with Tobun Jue, then Uesugi Kiyoshi doesn't mind helping Towen Maki deal with his uncle while making some gains.

He already has a plan to achieve a win-win situation.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't bother with Maki Higashi, but continued to make a call.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Hello, Uesugi-kun, call me, is there any good news for me?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi also smiled softly when he heard this gentle male voice.

"Akutagawa-san, my house was burned, is it good news?"

Ryunosuke Akutagawa was obviously choked up, and after a few seconds, he said helplessly: "It seems to be bad news." ”

"Sorry, what's going on?"

"Is there anything I can do to help Uesugi-kun?"

"I thought Uesugi-kun called me because he wanted to join our Collectibles Association."

Uesugi Kiyoshi did not deny it either.

"Before we join, let's talk about cooperation."

"Akutagawa-san, I remember you said that you have a grudge against the ghosts and gods behind Dong Wenyu?"

"Isn't it a coincidence that you say, just now, Dong Wenyu and I also had a feud, the kind that never stops."

"I thought, a friend of an enemy is a friend."

"There is always a lot of strength in numbers..."

"How about it, Akutagawa-san, let's find a time to talk?"

"It's negotiated, maybe... Bad news can turn into good news. ”

After a brief silence, Ryunosuke Akutagawa's voice came from the microphone with a smile.

"Uesugi-kun, where are you?"

"Hmm... It's near your home. ”

"Please wait a moment."

"I'll be there soon!"
