"Hey, I'm just curious, what are you going to do with that girl? Suddenly jumped out, and even I was startled. ”

The big wood that was left behind was a sturdy young man with an inch of hair, and his face was a little wooden. Hearing Narumi You's question, he stared at it for a long time before he held back a few words,

"You'd better not play any tricks on your mind, just stand here."

"I don't know that girl, don't get me wrong." Narumi Yu looked innocent and looked sincere, even when he met an extreme gangster like him, he was not afraid at all, but took the initiative to get closer and lowered his voice, "Hehe...... I saw that the girl was good-looking on the train, so I secretly followed her all the way and followed. ”

The stalker is like a little obscene, and he learns vividly.

"I was afraid that you were here to rob you, and if you robbed you, there would be nothing to do with me, so I had the courage to shout. Think about it carefully, if you really want to rob the color, where will you just greet your face with a baseball bat? ”

"What kind of robbery ......" may have let down some of his guard, and the inch-headed gangster was finally willing to speak, a little disdainful, "Which girl in Kabuki is not more comfortable than such a little girl sleeping down?" And we in the Toyono Group have never done this kind of thing, just a routine thing. ”

"It's not like I can't go to Kabuki...... Do you want to take it away? ”

"Let's see if she can come up with the money."

"Money?"

After Narumi Yu's three or two pretenses, the inch-headed gangster gradually let down his guard against him, and explained angrily, "Her father used to play cards in the card village managed by their local Yakuza organization, starting from a bureau of 500,000 yen, the bigger and bigger the play, the more arrears were owed everywhere. ”

"I heard that the last man used his life as a bargaining chip in the end, and had a big fight with the head of the organization's brother, there is this number." The inch-headed thug stretched out five fingers and shook them in front of Narumi Yu.

"Five million?"

"How can there be so little, and only five million can please us?"

"Hiss......" Narumi gasped cooperatively, allowing him to continue the story.

50 million yen...... I don't know if there is so much manuscript fee for "Nai River" serialized until now. Even if there were, according to the words of the cunning gangster, it was clear that her father owed much more than that.

"It's just a rural organization in Hokkaido, and it doesn't hesitate to spend tens of millions of yen to trade with our Toyono group, and it also wants to get money or people back."

Speaking of this, the inch-headed thug snorted coldly with disdain,

"It can only be said that the countryside is the countryside, and even the pole is such a waste, and his own card bank can even let the loser run away."

"I guess it's because of this disgrace that I'm willing to spend so much money to buy people back." Narumi Yu was on the side to help him do a dispensable analysis, "Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be taken out by other groups for several years." ”

"Heh, if there is such a serious mistake, if you don't get people back, how can anyone cooperate with them. Extreme road is the most credibility in this industry. ”

Credibility......

These two words have nothing to do with Jidao in Narumi Yu's heart.

Is it credibility to let gamblers lose their cards?

"Tsk."

He snorted mockingly.

The inch-headed thug couldn't hear what it meant, "To put it bluntly, we're not afraid of you calling the police, at most we can't catch anyone." ”

"The police station and the extreme road have agreed on the customary rule, the well water does not interfere with the river water, we do our business, and it will not be controlled if it does not affect the law and order."

"If you don't call the police, don't call the police, what kind of police, let the police arrest me?" Narumi shook his head again and again, "Since that's the case, I won't ask for trouble, who knew that this girl had so many things." ”

In the dim darkness of the night, there are scattered street lamps on the streets of the old residential area.

Narumi squinted at the eaves next to the street lamp, and a familiar black cat stopped.

"Yikes! It's broken. Narumi glanced at the time, "Why is it so late?!" If I don't go back, my father won't be able to break all the bamboo knives. That...... Hehe, it's all a misunderstanding, I'll go first, and you can hurry up and help your boss after you leave. ”

"......" The inch-headed thug frowned, stared at him for more than ten seconds, and felt that there was some reason, "Let's go, next time remember to disturb our Toyono group if there is nothing to do." ”

"Hey! Certain! ”

Narumi Yu assured him seriously, slowly retreated backwards, and after seeing that the inch-headed thugs did not look back, he quickly turned into the alley next to him.

After bypassing the two intersections, the black cat that followed him jumped from the roof, fell in front of him, and turned back into the literary girl he was familiar with.

"I can't go to Kabuki, so come along?"

The girl looked straight at him, and couldn't help but laugh first, her eyebrows and eyes were bent into a thin moon, and she covered her mouth with one hand, and she didn't laugh out loud, but there seemed to be light in her eyes.

This was the first time he had seen a girl smile so simply and happily, and he only hated that the moon in the sky did not come out tonight.

“…… Thank you. Yayoi pursed her lips, turned her back, held her hands behind her back, and took two steps forward.

"Thanks for what?"

He just shouted when he was safe, in order to satisfy his most basic conscience as a normal person.

And looking at Yayoi Akiza's reaction speed, it is obviously not the first time he has encountered such a situation, and he should be able to escape without him.

"Thank you for your willingness to come with me......"

The girl's voice fell in the empty alley, and there was a bit of self-deprecation in her tone.

Narumi understood what she meant, smiled, and followed unhurriedly,

"I'm a person who likes to find trouble when I have nothing to do, and I will run when I am really troublesome, and there will be no psychological pressure, don't worry."

“……”

……

Narumi followed Yayoi Autumn Morning until he walked to the track bridge he had seen earlier.

Next to the neighbors, it does not follow the construction rate of the old house.

Cramped and crowded.

There is no yard, and the entrance is only a few steps away from the ramp.

Next to the old wooden door, the empty tin box with the name of the head of the household is rusty.

Inside is a folded piece of printer paper with the word "Yayoi" neatly written on it with a marker.

The girl stepped forward, took the printer paper out of the empty frame, folded the word [Yayoi] into it in reverse, replaced it with the word "Suzuki", and stuffed it back into the box.

Then he took out the key, opened the door and walked into the house.

"Come in? Narumi has a lot more to ask, right? ”

In fact, from a security point of view, it is obviously better for him to go back directly now.

But......

Narumi Yu thought something was interesting.

If it's a story game, this would probably be an important branching option.

[Do you agree to Yayoi Akiha's request?] ]

[Yes]

[No]

Something like this.

Choosing [Yes] means choosing to continue to delve into the character's storyline.

Select [No], and the character will fade out of the player's view and will no longer appear in the later episodes.

But reality is not a game after all.

Relive this life, safety and interests...... In his mind, they are obviously all at the back.

He wanted to live a simple life and do whatever he wanted.

"It's hard to come once, of course I have to go in and have a look."

He smiled and nodded, and walked into Yayoi Akizao's somewhat cramped residence.
