Chapter 12: Chie Kamikawa
Tokyo, Arakawa-ku, Japan.
Based on the memories of the original owner that he remembered at the Metropolitan Police Department, Kamikawa walked down the street home.
Look around.
The street lights are old, the lights are dim, and from time to time the aging of the circuit causes the lights to flicker and flicker.
The lights shone brightly, pulling the shadow of Kamikawazun to grow long.
"It's really worthy of Arakawa's name." Kamikawa swept through the houses on both sides.
All old Japanese-style houses, with small bungalows and small apartments, most of them are not high, no more than five or six floors at most.
Looking at the style and age, the youngest rooms are more than ten years old.
The scenery here is completely incompatible with the word "bustling" in Tokyo.
Even, it can be called old, traditional, and poor.
Tokyo, as the capital of Japan, is traditionally one of the world's four world-class cities.
However, the prosperity of Tokyo is, strictly speaking, the 6 wards in the center of the city.
These are the six wards in the center of Tokyo:
Chiyoda-ku, Chuo-ku, Minato-ku, Shinjuku-ku, Bunkyo-ku, Taito-ku.
In addition to this, there are other wards in Tokyo.
Tokyo is divided into 23 wards.
Due to many factors such as development, the economic level of each district is different.
There are significant gaps.
The gap is so large that the gap between the top and last districts has nearly three times the per capita income.
In Japan, netizens often fire regional artillery on the Internet against the 23 wards of Tokyo, dividing the 23 wards, which are highly polarized between the rich and the poor, into high-class districts and civilian districts.
And the Arakawa District, where Kamikawa's family lives, is not even a civilian area.
It belongs to the worse than the civilian area, the slum.
Of Tokyo's 23 wards, there are three slums, and Arakawa Ward is one of them.
Recalling his message to Tokyo, Uekawa didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
In Arakawa District, the difference is poor, but you have to find luck from the misfortune.
You can find it.
The only good thing is that Arakawa Ward is at least not the first-to-last, but the second-to-last.
After laughing for a while, Kamikawa Zun couldn't laugh anymore.
He had just figured out some memories of the original owner.
Kamikawazun's current situation is very miserable.
It's not just about life, it's about the economy.
The reason for the suicide of the original owner is that the economy occupies a part.
Judging from the current situation, if you don't do something, I'm afraid it won't be long before Kamikawa Zunde has to move to Adachi Ward due to financial difficulties.
Adachi Ward is the lowest ward in Tokyo.
However, Kamikawa couldn't laugh, in addition to the economy, there was another part of the reason.
Younger sister!
The original owner, Kamikawazun, is not a single-parent family, and has a younger sister.
"Sister ......"
Kamikawa stopped and looked up at the night sky.
Tonight.
The silver moon hangs high in the night sky, shining brightly, and the stars are magnificent.
Looking at it, the stars form a curved galaxy, adorned with the starry sky, which is so beautiful that it makes people's hearts shine, like a girl smiling.
Deep eyes, reflected in the bright stars.
Until the evening breeze blew lightly, blowing a short wave on his head, Shangchuan Zun retracted his gaze.
Chie Kamikawa.
The name of Uekawa's younger sister.
There is a two-year difference with Kamikawa Zun, and he is only 15 years old, which is still the age of 'starting in three years'.
Currently, Chie Kamikawa is a third-year junior high school student at Arakawa Daiichi Junior High School.
According to Huaguo School, it is the third grade of junior high school.
I'm about to graduate and move on to high school.
And it was precisely when Chie Kamikawa was going to enter high school that the original owner, Takami Kamikawa, committed suicide.
Because, my sister's admission to high school means that she has to pay tuition.
Like China, Japan has a free nine-year compulsory education.
In high school, students are required to pay their own tuition.
Kamikawa Zun's family is different from other families.
His parents died young, leaving him and his sister alone.
As the only male and the eldest in the family, he has to shoulder the burden of the family.
What is the financial ability of a high school student?
The answer is obvious.
Basically, no.
The source of income can only rely on temporary work and the meager savings left by his parents.
In order to ensure that he does not starve to death and survives until he is an adult and can officially find a job, Kamikawa must consider the careful budgeting that he should not have at his age.
Plan how much you will spend each day to fill your stomach without overspending.
There are other aspects of the cost that have to be considered.
Almost, every day Shangchuan Zun lives in a tight frame and saves money.
It's too bitter.
The point is that the bitter emotion, which he can't show yet, will worry his younger sister.
He loves his sister very much.
How much does it hurt, as long as there is fish to eat, the fish meat will be given to my sister, and the fish head will be kept for myself, and what is delicious and delicious will be given to my sister as soon as possible.
It can be said that if it weren't for Kamikawa Chie, he wouldn't have supported the whole family until now.
So he didn't want his sister to worry.
However, that's all he can do.
After all, as a parent who died too early, he didn't even have time to enjoy life, so he had to face the cruel life of teenagers.
The burden he carried...... It's too heavy!
Originally, Kamikawa Zun was careful every day, and he had to be busy with part-time work, and he had to face life, school and other things, which had reached the limit.
It was so overwhelming that he couldn't breathe.
Now, my sister is about to enter high school.
Faced with a sum of money, expensive high school tuition......
This is like the last straw that crushed the camel, and Kamikawa finally couldn't hold it under the pressure of overload.
He chose to commit suicide.
The memory fragment of the original owner flashed in his mind, and Kamikawa sighed.
It is very irresponsible to say that Shangchuan Zun committed suicide?
It's really not responsible.
actually left his sister to die.
But looking at the memory fragment, there is a scene of memory......
When the original owner Shangchuan Zun wrote a suicide note, he kept pointing out the question, hoping that someone with good Samaritans could take care of his sister.
The tone of pleading was extremely humble.
At the end of the writing, the tears stopped falling,
dripping on the suicide note, turning into a tear trace.
Until he died, he couldn't let go of his sister.
It can be said that the original owner, Shangchuan Zun, did something wrong, should not commit suicide, and must continue to carry it.
Actually, it's not true.
The burden borne by the original owner, Kamikawazun, is too heavy, and it is not his own age that he should bear.
For any high school student, even an adult, I'm afraid the way you choose is not much better than the original owner.
"Since I died in my previous life, I crossed over to you and regained my life, as a thank you, I will help you take care of your sister, which can be regarded as fulfilling your wish."
Kamikawa muttered and took a new step.
In a previous life, he died.
Accidentally crossing and being reborn, he naturally won't waste time in vain.
The first thing I can do now is to take care of my sister for the original owner.
After all, his principle of life is very simple, if there is kindness, he will repay it, and if he has revenge, he will take revenge.
A small old Japanese-style apartment.
Uekawa stood in front of one of the apartments.
This is the only inheritance left by the original owner's parents in addition to their meager savings, so that Kamikawa Zun and Kamikawa Chie will not be frozen.
Take out the keys from your bag.
Turn the keyhole to open the door.
Kamikawazun exhaled, immediately raised his feet, and stepped into the house:
"I'm back."
