Chapter 4 We usually only use two words to describe it... (7K Grand Chapter Ticket Request)
[My name is Xia Li. V. Prudence]
At this moment, Higashinohara, who was lying on the tatami mat, was very conscious.
However, there was a self-narrated voice in his head that was narrating something, and the images that emerged were so real that he felt in a trance that these seemed to be his real memories of the past...
[My family lives in Okinawa Prefecture, my family is very poor, I have a father who died; There is also a mother, who is also dead; Later, my sister gave it away, hoping that my sister would be able to eat a full stomach every day]
[I can eat five bowls at a meal, it's really sad that I can't eat enough, someone in the village joined the revolutionary army to resist the world government, saying that I can eat a full meal, I'm afraid of hunger but I'm more afraid of death]
[I heard that I could earn a lot of money and eat enough to work in New Tokyo, so I picked up the train and secretly came to Tokyo]
【Fake! It's all fake! I can't eat enough in Tokyo...]
The picture in his mind passed here, and Higashinohara probably understood that the so-called character profile was probably the life and past of the prisoner, but he couldn't help but be speechless for a while about the experience of this girl named Xia Li.
Is it true that you can't eat because you're too good to eat?
Higashinohara knows that Okinawa should be the poorest prefecture in Wano Country, but in Tokyo, you should be able to eat enough even if you look for a job, right?
Well, you can't get enough to eat, so you burglarize?
Wait a minute!
Higashinohara frowned slightly.
The moment he first entered [Character Drawing], he clearly felt a sense of "as if he was being stared at by a pair of eyes" - he knew that he was now empathetic to Xia Li and was experiencing everything she had experienced.
But it's... What's the situation?
The dissection in my mind is not over, and the inner "narration" of the picture continues.
[I met a strange uncle who stared at my ears for a while, and then gave me a big yellow orange, which was very tempting, but when my father was alive, I told girls to respect themselves and love themselves and not accept strangers' things casually, so I refused]
[When I got home, the orange appeared in my bag, which was strange, but I left it on the table and didn't eat it.] 】
[The next day, hold back]
[On the third day, hold back... Oranges will go bad, right? 】
[On the fourth day, hold back... No one eats oranges, so pitiful]
[On the fifth day, when I woke up at night, thirsty and hungry, I ate the oranges, which were so sweet!! 】
[I seem to have awakened my abilities!] That's great! Could this be the fruit of the ability of the school city? 】
【......】
[I've been feeling so strange lately, when I'm working, eating, and sleeping after work... I always feel like something is staring at me, hmm... Am I fainting from hunger?]
[It's not that I'm hungry! Is there really a pair of eyes staring at me, staring at me every day, staring at me all the time, preparing to murder me? Xia Li doesn't want to die! Tokyo is scary! Who's going to save me! 】
[Today, the owner of the izakaya told me that there is a customer who wants to make friends with the Tmall clan and will invite me to dinner, well, my father seems to have said that we are the Tianhu clan... Whatever, just take care of the food, hehe]
[Oh no! That guy is a pervert! There were a lot of girls in the basement of his house, I lectured him and let the girls go, he threatened to take me to jail, I was not afraid of him, but it felt like a pair of eyes were watching me do this.
[New Tokyo is not good at all! I'm going back to my hometown! Take some of his worthless stones and you should be able to exchange them for fares, right? 】
[The owner of the jewelry store gave me five million yen, haha made a fortune!] It turns out that these stones are so valuable.]
The next picture and confession is the escape that has been wanted for the past week, and the feeling of being watched by a pair of eyes has become more and more obvious, and I even had nightmares for several nights.
Until today, Xia Li found that the train station could not be entered, and she could take a detour home by taking a long-distance bus, so she excitedly found a "enthusiastic uncle" to help buy tickets at night.
Unexpectedly, she was targeted by Higashinohara and finally caught, ending her escape in a daze this week.
Ahh
Higashinohara was a little numb after reading it.
Those jewels were only exchanged for 5 million yen?
Didn't the Metropolitan Police Department's wanted mention that at least 80 million yen of jewelry and jade had been stolen?
Boy!
The profiteers in Tokyo are more ruthless than the others!
It turns out that her [Crimson Pupil] was obtained through the fruit of ability?
Doesn't it mean that the fruit of ability is still in the clinical stage, extremely unstable, and there is not one in ten who survive?
This guy actually woke up after a sleep?
Is... No one left.
And those eyes... What exactly is it?
What are the sequelae of taking the fruit of ability?
...
Lying on the tatami mat, Higashinohara pondered for a while after exiting the figure drawing, and the fatigue of the body's biological clock and muscle soreness hit one after another, and he fell asleep after a while.
If you can't figure it out, put it first, anyway, it doesn't have much to do with you at the moment.
......
The next day, the morning light was faint.
There was no alarm clock, but Higashinohara, who had a regular schedule and had already formed a biological clock, woke up at half past five.
Sitting on the tatami mat and rubbing my shoulders, sure enough, last night was still "too strenuous exercise" and a little sore, I really wanted to sleep in bed for a while, but this thought was just thinking.
Speaking of which, two years ago, the original owner "Higashinohara" awakened even though it was only a serial number 98 ordinary speed ability, but he was still sent from a rural junior high school in Koshimizu Town, Shari County, Hokkaido, to Takehara Minami Private College in New Tokyo.
But the pain and the sad thing is that as of the original owner, "Higashinohara", he has been repeating two consecutive school years at Takehara South High School, and is currently enrolled in the repeater class, and the students in this class are generally regarded as "weeds" by the senior students in most of the superpower school - sooner or later they will be hoeed (drop out).
If you do not pass the first-year academic test and enter the second grade by the end of February next year, you will be sadly persuaded to return to the countryside of Hokkaido according to the rules and regulations of the school.
As soon as I thought of this, the little tiredness that remained of Higashinohara disappeared without a trace.
Hemp eggs!
What a mess this is.
It's not in line with the law of the traverser at all!
He was not afraid of being discouraged from school and returning to his hometown in Hokkaido to be embarrassed by the original owner, so he tried his best to improve his abilities in masochistic training, but unexpectedly he died suddenly in the middle of the night beyond the physical load of the young man.
It's really providential.
Fortunately, it was cheaper for him from Hailanxing.
But today, Higashinohara is still worried about being dropped out of school.
What he was worried about was that when he came to this country of Wano, which was somewhat similar to the original world, it would take him half a year to get familiar with the surrounding living and learning environment, and if he was persuaded from school to return to his rural hometown in Hokkaido and replaced it with a completely unfamiliar environment, it would really be uncomfortable for him.
Not to mention the original owner's memories of the parents who fished in the countryside in Hokkaido, as well as the younger sister Higashino Yukino, who was studying elementary school in the countryside, made him suddenly regard those strangers as relatives, and Higashinohara was still a little psychologically disordered.
So to be able to live in New Tokyo, Higashinohara is definitely reluctant to go back to his hometown.
Of course, the premise is that he can successfully graduate from Takehara Minami Private College first.
Higashinohara didn't have much hope for this before, but last night a dreamlike encounter inexplicably added a sin manual to his mind.
Although the quickest and most direct source of attribute points is to capture criminals, there is a certain risk that if you encounter a vicious outlaw fanatic, you will plant yourself in it.
Fortunately, there is also a "benzene method".
That's exercise.
Exercise is very hard, but people have to "ask for their own hardships" in life, otherwise how can there be a saying that hardships come to an end?
Before going to bed last night, Higashinohara formulated a set of [civilian training] methods that integrated "push-ups, sit-ups, squats and running" for himself.
Why not go to the gym and get a card?
Well, no money.
The Metropolitan Police Department's bonus is only more than two months' rent and living expenses, where can there be extra spare money.
However, since the so-called [human body limiter] was broken and lifted by the Sinful Manual through hard points, last night it was confirmed that the simplest form of exercise, push-ups, is effective - even if the effect is not so "obvious", but Higashinohara feels that it seems very feasible to improve by gradually increasing the intensity of the workout in the future.
Fat people don't eat it in one bite.
Higashinohara was lucky to live again.
In the past, I didn't have a choice, but I could only put it badly.
Now that he has the opportunity to settle down in this world, he is full of motivation even if he is tired and tired.
......
After dragging his sore body and washing up, Higashinohara changed into the school uniform of Takehara Minami High School - a white long-sleeved shirt, a brown two-button blazer, and an embroidered school emblem on his left chest.
After putting on the gray-blue trousers, Higashinohara picked up his black handbag, and when he went out, he took out a clean tie from behind the door, and the lower part of the tie was a pattern of white lines intertwined, and tied it carefully in front of the mirror.
As the saying goes, people depend on their clothes.
When I arrived at Higashinohara, although the school uniform of the Takehara Minami Private School Park itself was very well-customized, it had a more aristocratic sense of sophistication when worn on Higashinohara, and no one could tell at first glance that he was a country boy from a small fishing village in Hokkaido.
When I went down the stairs, I happened to meet Shunsuke Nishimaru, who was on the same floor, and Nishimaru Miri, who was rubbing his little face and sleepy-eyed, and was carrying a somewhat worn doll rabbit ears in his hand, and the two were washing in the corridor.
Higashinohara couldn't help but look down at the time on his phone - 5:42, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled in his heart.
Why do you wake up so early?
Shunsuke Nishimaru works in a nightclub and doesn't get out of bed until 12 o'clock at noon on weekdays.
Nishimaru Miri's elementary school is only required to arrive at school at half past eight, and it is the time for children to grow up, and it is necessary to get enough sleep.
However, the father of the family took it, and an outsider in Higashinohara didn't care about anything, so he shook his head and continued to go downstairs.
......
Pedal pedal – !
As soon as I reached the third floor along the stairs, a rush of footsteps suddenly came into my ears, and Higashinohara didn't turn his head, but a 360-degree picture appeared in his mind.
The all-round perspective of [Nine Eyes and Six Paths].
In the picture, I saw a long straight black girl wearing a navy blue windbreaker uniform and long boots, holding a briefcase under her arm, holding a sandwich in her mouth, holding a headband in her right hand, skillfully pulling up the hair behind her head into a ponytail, and striding from the corridor on the third floor.
Under normal circumstances, the girl can't stop the car by inertia, and I'm afraid that she will collide with Higashinohara in the corridor.
Not... It's very much in line with the plot of the morning drama of Wano Country.
But what storms have you not seen in Higashinohara?
I saw him holding the black briefcase in his hand with his backhand, turning around with his left leg and quickly taking a small step forward, following up with his right leg, squatting down and holding the "shield" with both hands and quickly hitting it out at a 45-degree angle upward, instantly making a classic explosion-proof "upblock" posture.
......
"Oops! It's going to be late! Damn it! Stinky dad wants me to come back once a week! ”
In the corridor, Mai Aragaki was babbling in a hurry, and the moment she turned the corner, she was about to accelerate down the stairs as usual.
She has lived in this apartment since she was a child, and when she was in junior high school, she could rush down three steps from a dozen floors.
However, in the next moment, her whole body stiffened, and a black ... Handbag?
It's all tedious,
It doesn't happen like a flash of lightning.
It's too late to shout.
Bang!
Sure enough, Mai Aragaki hit her face without stopping the car, and the facial expression of "a beautiful girl in the morning hugging a new day" was distorted instantly.
It doesn't hurt, it's just a little annoying.
Who's this?
......
"Mai-senpai?"
At this moment, a calm voice sounded behind the handbag.
Higashinohara put down his handbag and put a polite smile on his face, "Good morning." ”
"Ah, it's you."
Mai Aragaki naturally knows Higashinohara.,She also graduated from Tokyo's Takehara Minami Private School Park.,Higashinohara knew it when she just moved into the apartment.,Before graduation, I went to say hello.。
It's just that I didn't expect this guy to repeat a grade in school for two consecutive years, and if she can't graduate next year, she will have to be persuaded to quit by the school, which makes her occasionally embarrassed to take the initiative to say hello for fear of hurting the other party's self-esteem.
But today... This "Mai Senior Sister" is cool and kind, and her smile is generous and natural, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, and the impression of being lifeless and dull all day long in her impression is simply like two people.
Not... Looking at it so closely, this guy is quite sunny and handsome when he laughs.
Odd...
Why didn't you notice it before?
Remembering last night's chance encounter at Shibuya Station...
Mai Aragaki also smiled on her face and said hello, "It's Higashino-kun, good morning, you were very brave last night, and it was thanks to you that we caught that guy." ”
She forcibly held back in her heart and didn't ask...
Why did you slap me in the face with that thing?
"Uh... You are also working hard for every enthusiastic citizen of New Tokyo. Higashinohara said politely, and suddenly remembered Xia Li's dissection that he saw in his mind last night, and couldn't help but ask, "Last night's... What happened to the female thief? When is the trial? ”
Unexpectedly, when this was mentioned, Mai Aragaki was angry, and said angrily, "How can we have the right to judge the heavens?" Last night, the people from the Ruling Division of the Celestial Government made a fuss all night, but the captain dragged it hard and didn't hand it over... But I'm sure I'll have to hand it over today. ”
Speaking of this, her voice was a little deflated, and she looked depressed.
Higashinohara can also understand this, which newcomer to their industry has no ambitions and ideals.
It's just that reality is reality.
The Celestial and Human World Government has ruled this world for more than a thousand years by force, although in the past hundred years, with the rise of the strong human beings, coupled with the arrogance and lasciviousness of the descendants of the Celestial Beings, the cruelty and tyranny towards human beings have aroused the resistance of countless allies, and the rule is far less stable and reliable than it was back then.
But a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, the world government is still a behemoth pressing on the heads of many allies.
Wano Country is currently the most stable among the many allies and the World Government, but unless it really reaches the point of tearing their faces one day, the Third Investigation Team will definitely hand over the people under pressure in the face of the strong proposal of the World Government Adjudication Division.
According to the past practice, the crimes of the Celestials who were generally born into famous families or had a background behind them were taken away by the Celestial Judgment and tried internally by them - and the arbitration trial of the Celestial Government was a world joke, and most of them would be released on bail after going through the motions.
"Humph! That girl from the Tmall clan must have some background, otherwise the guys in the Adjudication Division wouldn't be so positive. Mai Aragaki grumbled.
You'd be wrong.
Higashino Harashin Road.
He watched Xia Li's image dissection last night - the mixed-race second-breed who couldn't even figure out whether he was a Tmall clan or a Tianhu clan, was purely a poor ghost who came to New Tokyo from Okinawa to work on a train, so it was strange what background he could have.
Although he also had some doubts about why the people of the Adjudicator Division would protect that guy, it was difficult to say, and it was not his responsibility.
So I could only echo Mai Aragagaki's complaints twice, and scold a few more words from the people of the World Government Adjudication Division - Mai Aragaki suddenly looked at this handsome junior with a new look more and more pleasing to the eye.
The two walked along the corridor and chatted out of the apartment, Mai Aragaki was going to work at the Metropolitan Police Department in Chuo Ward, and she didn't take the same line of train as Takehara Minami Private College, and the two said goodbye at the door.
"Come on, Higashino-kun! Next year you will definitely be able to. ”
Mai Aragaki ran a few steps, suddenly turned around, and clenched her fists hard at Higashinohara.
In the morning light, the ponytail girl's face seemed to be coated with a layer of brilliance, warm as fat, full of vigorous vitality.
Higashinohara was stunned, his mood was inexplicably infected, and he said with a smile, "Thank you!" Mai Senpai, come on, too! ”
"Haha, I'm going to be late and won't tell you, bye!"
The girl turned around and trotted all the way, the ponytail rose and fell with the pace, and the silhouette in the sun was so energetic.
Higashinohara stood there and stared for a while, and suddenly noticed in his mind that someone was approaching behind him, and a lazy voice was already ringing in his ears.
"Hey boy, my daughter is pretty, isn't she?"
Belch... It's pretty beautiful.
Higashino Hara's heart said, but his mouth said, "Good morning, Aragaki-san, I'm going to school, goodbye!" ”
After saying that, he left without waiting for the other party's reaction.
At the door, Satoru Aragaki looked at the back of the young man, scratched his crotch, and said with some confusion on his face, "Strange, how do you feel that this kid has become more and more enlightened recently?" ”
......
I took a few stops on the train.,After getting off the train and leaving the station, Higashinohara walked a distance.,After going up a slope, the gate of the Takehara Minami Private School Park appeared in the field of vision.。
Although Takehara Minami Private School Park is not one of the four university parks in New Tokyo, which is known as the "School City", it is also a first-class super-powered private school park under the four university parks - it is said that the plan of the school board in recent years is to make Takehara Minami High School get outstanding results in the [New Tokyo Gakuen Super Battle] held in Koshien in the summer, so as to successfully enter the list of the four university parks.
Not... It's really not possible, and the "Fifth University Park" can also be used.
For this purpose, the Takebarami Private School is not limited to Tokyo, but has cast a wide net across the country to expand the number of students, and even lowered the score limit for cultural classes.
It was under these circumstances that Higashinohara, the original owner of a small fishing village in Hokkaido, was invited to the Takehara Minami Private School in the bustling Tokyo Metropolitan Area, where he was able to enjoy a reduction in tuition and miscellaneous fees, off-campus accommodation subsidies, and a discount for poor students in the cafeteria.
It's a pity that after he failed to pass the academic proficiency test at the end of the first year, he said goodbye to this preferential policy.
In the second year, the academic assessment still failed....
By the time Higashino Hara's soul penetrated this world this year, he seemed to belong to the "Three World War veterans" in school...
Hemp eggs!
What a mess this is.
Calm and calm, I still have a sin manual, and there is hope for hard work.
Higashinohara forced to calm down, and after entering the teaching building, he went to the classroom first without changing his indoor shoes, found the penultimate row by the window, put down his handbag, and then came to the changing room of the sports department, opened the locker and changed into sportswear.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time before the eight o'clock morning meeting, he trotted to the playground alone in his tracksuit.
Although last night's push-ups made him sore today, exercise is a thing that requires perseverance and continuous pushing the limits to improve.
Human inertia is a terrible thing, and Higashinohara believes that if you make excuses to be lazy, wait for tomorrow today, wait for tomorrow tomorrow... Even if you have a golden finger like the [Sin Manual] that touches the "human body limiter", I'm afraid you won't be able to improve much in a year.
The plan of the day is in the morning.
Then let's get started today!
......
Arrived at the playground behind the school building,Higashinohara found that he was not alone,There are not a few students who know how to "stupid birds fly first"-there are many people in the corner of the playground who are tempering their abilities through some specific instruments or physical skills,Expecting to break through the current ability level one day。
Higashinohara warmed up a little while standing on the rubber track of the playground, and began to gradually accelerate along the track, running lap after lap.
In his mind, since last night's push-ups can improve [physique] attributes, then jogging, as the most primitive aerobic telemotion, has no reason to be less effective than push-ups.
In the middle of running, Higashinohara also noticed a round-faced girl in a no-man's corner in the northwest corner of the playground wearing a kendo uniform and holding a bamboo sword to practice Su Zhen, who was short and estimated to be less than one meter and a half, and didn't look like a high school student.
If Higashinohara remembers correctly, she should be the [Scythe] who controls the ability sequence No. 91.
Kamakula, sometimes written as "Kiki" in Wano Kuni characters, is a type of youkai that is said to appear in a whirlwind posture and attack anyone it encounters with claws as sharp as a scythe, and the victim's skin will be cut open with a long wound, but it will not feel any pain at all.
The [Scythe] in this world's ability sequence belongs to the elemental ability, which is mainly the control and use of the wind, and generally uses swords and darts as weapons in general combat, or is a powerful technique that directly urges the power of the elements.
However, more than 10 years ago, Kyoto Prefecture had a [Weasel] ability who used a sword as a weapon and was promoted to a swordsman who everyone admired, and now most of the younger generation of [Weasel] ability people advocate using swords as weapons to fight.
It's just a word of Kame Ryoka ...
I am afraid that it is a little difficult to become a sword master.
Higashinohara doesn't know if she's a little inferior because of her young figure and appearance.,She's always submissive in the class on weekdays.,The personality is gentle and friendly.,It's good to everyone.。
It's a pity that many people in this world will not be kind because of this, coupled with the uneven quality of the repeater class, some people even semi-openly gave her the nickname of "primary school student" to sarcastically mock her height, and I haven't seen how she resisted.
At the end of February this year, when she took the academic test, she didn't know why she didn't pass the assessment, and after the spring break ended, she was assigned to the repeater class of class F for one year, and she became a classmate with Higashinohara, and she didn't know if she could pass next year...
......
Jogging is a relatively boring sport, and it is easy to let your mind wander, and Higashinohara thinks about these things in his mind while running, diverting his attention and relieving the soreness of his body.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Soon it was approaching eight o'clock for the morning meeting.
There weren't many students left on the playground at this time, only Higashinohara, who was about to complete today's exercise goal with a whistling and panting, and Ryoka Kame, who was holding a bamboo sword high in the corner and constantly slashing down for Su Zhen training.
The loose kendo uniform outside her petite body was almost soaked with sweat, but the face of Ryoka Kame's round bun shone with an unusually persistent brilliance, and it was obvious that she also had a small goal.
At this time, three figures in school uniforms suddenly walked over the teaching building, led by permed light blonde curls, and the tie at the collar of the suit was loose and looked a little ruffian.
"Really, why is that woman holding on to my hair? I said I was naturally curly blonde. ”
"Hey, the head teacher is not a fool, you still have straight black hair last semester."
"The unluckiest thing is that we... Why do you want to accompany you to call people, that 'elementary school student' is really, and he is still training here in Su Zhen for the morning meeting today. ”
"Hehe, that elementary school student's brain is probably not well developed, if Su Zhen can improve, I will eat the phone on the spot."
"Hahaha, by the way, Saki, it wouldn't be true that you told the instructor yesterday that you had mastered the [technique], right?"
"It's really fake... Wouldn't you know if you tried training in the afternoon? ”
The three of them were laughing and chatting as they walked.
Suddenly, one of them pointed to a voice at the finish line of the playground track not far away, and said in surprise, "Huh? Look, isn't that guy the 'clod' of Hokkaido in our class? What is this guy doing? Jogging? ”
When the words fell, the three of them immediately looked at each other.
In the next second, they burst into a burst of laughter, and tears almost burst out of their eyes.
Su Zhen is at least the basic skill of Wano Country's swordsmanship, although they laugh at the deer eye Liangxiang, it will not be too much.
But what the hell are you running?
Sports students?
We're the Superpower Academy, boy!
At the finish line, Higashinohara, who was bent over and panting with his hands on his legs, had his legs so sore that they seemed to fall apart, and there was no doubt that the nine kilometers in one hour today had once again broken his limit.
Listening to the laughter on the edge of the playground, Higashinohara didn't rush into the [Guilty Handbook] to check the attribute panel harvest, but remembered that he had just vaguely heard what one of them said, and his face suddenly became a little weird.
"Clods"?
Is it the nickname that the original owner was called behind in that group of people?
How does it sound and feel... Weird?
......
