The other side.

Genji Takatsuki passes by a small stall playing baseball games alone, but is attracted by the cry of a little girl.

The game involves hitting a plastic baseball shot from a pitching machine with a plastic baseball bat for children. If you can hit a baseball on a nearby shelf and knock the prizes off it, you can take them away on the spot.

There are five rows of prizes on the shelves, ranging from cheap small pendants, daily necessities and snacks to more expensive figurines and dolls.

One of the most eye-catching is a half-height bear doll in the center of the shelf, which is obviously the first prize of the game, and it starts at least 10,000 yen in a toy store.

But as we all know, anyone who has suffered a few losses knows that this kind of game is a cheat.

For example, in this baseball game, baseball bats and baseballs are hollow plastic products, which are light and fluttering and have no sense of impact at all, even if they fall on the shelves, they have no strength, and they can only make the prize shake a few times, and they can't fall down at all.

Therefore, players who know a little more will give up the jackpot and instead aim for small prizes such as snacks and ornaments.

But even if those worthless small prizes can be won by players one by one, it is equivalent to selling them at a fair price for the stall owners, without losing or making money.

Because of this, anyone who sees through the essence of such games will shy away from them. The main audience of such game stalls has always been ignorant children and young people who are not well versed in the world.

At this very moment, a little girl in a red bathrobe with a double ponytail stood in front of a baseball game stand crying. Her parents, meanwhile, comforted her anxiously and looked reproachfully at the stall owner.

The stall owner was a bucktooth uncle with a sailor's knot tied to his forehead and a somewhat obscene appearance, who was leisurely waving a pu fan, and was still mocking in his mouth:

"How's that, little girl. Still want to try it? You almost won the jackpot just now~ It's really just a little bit close~"

"Don't say it, let's stop playing, let's go!" The little girl's father glared at the stall owner again and comforted his daughter: "We have already spent a lot of money, and it won't be worth it to play any longer, or Dad will go to the toy store and buy you one!" ”

"Yes, this stall is too black-hearted, and it doesn't let people win at all!" The little girl's mother was also indignant: "Lingmei, let's go play elsewhere~ After that, ask Dad to buy you a new doll." ”

"Woo. It's a little bit worse every time. It's a little bit worse every time." The little girl blushed, probably because she didn't admit defeat, so she cried aggrievedly: "But I just want that doll!" That's what I want! I don't want anything else!! ”

"Hmm" The little girl's parents were quite embarrassed and didn't know what to do for a while.

Thinking about it carefully, my daughter has been playing at least thirty games, and it is certain that she is not convinced.

Looking at the large half-length dolls on the shelves, the father knew that no matter how much his daughter tried a hundred or two hundred times, she would not succeed.

Originally, he just wanted his daughter to play a few games to experience it, but he didn't expect his daughter to come up and not leave if she didn't get this big doll today.

It's just that this stall owner already looks obscene, and he is also angry when he speaks, constantly taunting and stimulating his daughter, trying to lure her to continue playing and continue to send money to the stall.

"Hey, your daughter still wants to play, it's not good to force her to go like this~" The stall owner spread his hands lightly and sneered contemptuously: "A rare carnival celebration, wouldn't it be good to have a little money to make my daughter happy?" Don't be stingy~"

"Don't talk about it! We're leaving! The little girl's father gritted his teeth and almost wanted to punch the stall owner in the face, but he could only hold back silently.

The farce continued, and Genji Takatsuki walked up quickly.

"Hey, boss, let me have some fun."

When he saw Genji Takatsuki, the stall owner's first reaction was confusion, and then he was visibly afraid.

This young man with a big back looks like a bad boy at a glance. Their game stalls are all about watching dishes and dishes, only picking soft persimmons and pinching them, and theoretically they don't accept bad gangsters.

Most of these customers are irritable and have no law, and it is very likely that they will be angry after losing, and they can't afford to open the stall on the spot, beat the stall owner and run away, and the stall owner will have nowhere to reason at that time.

"Don't be afraid, I'll play by the rules of the game." Genji Takatsuki obviously saw through the other party's worries, picked up the baseball bat by himself, and commented casually:

"Heh, even if it's put in a toy bat for children, it's the worst quality, and it's possible to break it if you accidentally break it."

"Guest, why don't you go to the booth opposite?" The stall owner was embarrassed and wanted to refuse.

"What's the matter, are you afraid that I will win all your prizes?" Genji Takatsuki sneered, and the mockery was in a commanding tone: "How much once?" ”

"Hmm" The stall owner was frightened by the other party's hooligan eyes, and hurriedly said, "One hundred yen, one thousand yen, twelve times." Guest, do you really want to play? ”

"It's three thousand yen, thirty-six times." Takatsuki Genji didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out three thousand-yuan bills.

Trembling to receive so many bills, the stall owner had no choice but to turn on the pitching machine, with extremely mixed emotions in his heart—he wanted him not to win any prizes, but also hoped that he would win a little, so as not to be annoyed and embarrassed and angry.

That's it, if he really doesn't hit a single prize, I'll give him a few consolation prizes. Destroy the wealth and eliminate the disaster!

"Bang!!"

The stall owner was still struggling, and the first baseball had already been shot out of the pitching port and flew towards Genji Takatsuki.

"Hmph." Genji Takatsuki struck a casual batting stance and then swung his bat.

The speed of the baseball is not fast, and since the ball itself is also made of hollow plastic, it flies lightly and easily hits.

But the real challenge is not only to hit the ball, but also to fly it to the shelves and fly the prizes on it.

Sure enough, the game isn't as simple as it seems. Even Genji Takatsuki, a former baseball player, didn't hit any prize with the first ball, only letting the ball hit the iron on the shelf.

"Ding-!"

The baseball collided with the metal, making a crisp sound and bouncing off, but it didn't shake the shelves for half a minute, which shows how light the ball has become.

If you use a normal baseball, even if you just hit the shelf at this speed, it will definitely make the shelf shake violently, and some of the prizes will fall down.

"Haha~ The guests keep up their efforts, almost a little~" The stall owner didn't dare to mock him, but patiently encouraged him, and thought to himself how much consolation prize he would have to give him later.

The guest who paid 3,000 yen as soon as he came up, how can I say that I have to give him one or two valuable dolls, right?

"Hmph, sure enough." Genji Takatsuki didn't panic at all, but waved his bat and snorted calmly:

"It feels weird, but I've found the trick."

"Bang!"

The next baseball flew at him.

"Go!" Genji Takatsuki let out a low shout, and the bat hit the baseball, and the plastic ball flew towards the shelf.

To the surprise of the stall owner, the plastic ball, which was floppy and fluffy and even drifted slightly in mid-air, was now flying towards the shelf like a small cannonball.

"Smack!"

The baseball hits a cartoon charm with pinpoint accuracy, knocking it down.

“.” The stall owner was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and hurriedly said, "Congratulations to the guests!" I'll get it for you! ”

Genji Takatsuki didn't show half of his pride, just like he did a little thing he could.

But he knew in his heart that this inferior plastic baseball bat and inferior plastic ball, even if he used the "professional skills" of a baseball player, he could only make the ball speed reach this level.

It's easy to shoot down some small gifts at this speed, but it's a fool's dream to shoot down a large doll that is the jackpot.

However, he already had an idea in his mind.

"Bang!" The next ball hit, and Genji Takatsuki swung his bat again.

But this time, he used his skill to slice the ball, causing it to spin the moment it was knocked out.

The ball then flew straight towards the biggest bear doll.

"Hey, hey. It's not good." The stall owner's heart couldn't help but worry.

Are the guests getting carried away? Actually want to challenge the biggest baby bear?

No matter how many times you hit the ball, you can't get a Super Gimmick Jackpot!

However, what happened in the next moment shocked everyone's jaws.

I saw that the ball shot at the crotch of the bear doll, but it was not immediately bounced away.

If you look closely, you will see that the ball rotates during flight. This allowed it to continue spinning after touching the bear doll, and in one fell swoop it went under its crotch, raising the tip of its ass a bit.

"Bang!" Then came the next ball, which Genji Takatsuki concocted, causing the plastic ball to spin and rub into the bear doll's crotch, continuing to disrupt its bottom balance.

The three balls all grazed the bear doll's crotch, turning it into a tilted, almost unbalanced stilted doll, so shaky that it seemed that a casual blow on it could easily blow it down.

"Go!!" In the next ball, Genji Takatsuki hit the bear doll in the forehead and successfully knocked it down.

"How so." The stall owner was stunned.

"That's amazing!" The little girl who continued to watch because of her reluctance also screamed excitedly, and then fell into sadness and remorse.

The doll was robbed by this big brother, is it possible to succeed as long as he tries a few more rounds before?

"Congratulations, congratulations!" After being stunned for a while, the stall owner congratulated.

At the same time, the stall owner's face was pale, and his heart couldn't help beating wildly.

I thought that this bad boy was just a passerby who was passing by and playing casually, but his posture was obviously a baseball professional.

The most feared thing about this kind of game stall is that professionals will smash the field. At this moment, the stall owner finally understood the true intention of this bad boy to buy thirty-six chances in one go, he wanted to directly empty the prizes on the shelves within so many opportunities!

"That. Congratulations to the guests, this is the prize! The stall owner hurriedly held the bear doll to Genji Takatsuki, as if to urge him to leave quickly:

"Look, guest, this is already the biggest prize on our side, and it's not interesting to play any longer. Why don't I give you the rest of the money back and you go somewhere else?" ”

Genji Takatsuki said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I still have about thirty times, right~?" ”

"Wow." The stall owner was so frightened that his legs tightened, and he hurriedly said, "So I said, I can refund the money."

"That's how you do business?"

Genji Takatsuki glared at the stall owner, his eyes were so terrifying that he seemed to be about to hit someone with his fist in the next moment.

The stall owner was so frightened that he immediately trembled again, and nodded vigorously: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" I'm sorry I didn't make it enjoyable, so please continue! ”

Next, Genji Takatsuki continued to hit the ball with the accuracy of 100 shots. The small prizes are all one hit at a time, and the doll that is the grand prize can also ensure one in three or four shots, which is as cruel as the name of Hades.

By the time all the opportunities had been exhausted, most of the prizes on the shelves had been knocked to the ground, leaving only a few small prizes still alive.

But that's only because Genji Takatsuki ran out of times. As long as he is given a few more chances, it will not be a problem to knock down all the remaining prizes.

At the same time, the stall owner's face had completely lost its blood, and he stood in place like a candle in the wind.

This man is obviously a professional player who came to smash the field, and he removed most of the prizes for only 3,000 yen, including the jackpot that was simply used as a gimmick, which made him not know how much money he was going to lose today.

What made the stall owner even more desperate was that he couldn't mess with this bad boy and couldn't stop him from continuing to play. If the other party smashes the field in a rage, he will not be able to explain why he will be beaten at that time.

Helpless, the stall owner could only put all the prizes into a big basket and hold them to Genji Takatsuki, with an aggrieved face: "Guest. No, big brother! We are a small business, please raise your noble hands and go to the darts stall next door to play! ”

Instead of taking the basket, Genji Takatsuki lifted the back of the giant bear doll's neck and paced to the little girl who was still watching from the side of the road.

"Take it, cry and cry to death." Genji Takatsuki casually threw the doll into the little girl's arms.

"Yes, I'm sorry! We can't ask for this! The little girl's father was obviously a face-saving person, and hurriedly refused: "Lingmei, return the doll to the big brother!" ”

"Woo" the little girl reluctantly hugged the bear doll. But she listened to her parents very much, and still obediently reached out and handed the bear doll back: "Brother. Dad said that this Lingmei can't be taken. ”

"That's a lot of nonsense, I don't need this kind of thing, take it!" Genji Takatsuki glared at them, didn't pay any more attention, but walked straight to the stall owner and laughed sinisterly:

"Hey, let's make a deal, shall we?"

"What are you doing?" The stall owner hugged the basket and took two steps back in fear.

"You give me back the 3,000 yen, and you'll take care of the rest." Genji Takatsuki rubbed his fingers and proposed, "It doesn't matter if you burn it and throw it away, or what you do with it, how about it?" ”

"This, this!" This proposal made the stall owner excited.

The total number of prizes won by Genji Takatsuki is close to 80,000 yen, and even the purchase cost price must be 30,000 yen.

Even if you remove the huge bear doll that is the jackpot, the cost of the rest of the prizes adds up to more than 3,000 yen.

In other words, Genji Takatsuki's proposal to let the stall owner pay 3,000 yen to redeem the goods is a sure-fire deal that doesn't need to be considered.

Although he felt strange in his heart, the stall owner still agreed to the deal and immediately handed over three thousand yen bills, for fear that the other party would regret it: "Thank you!" I wish you good luck! ”

Genji Takatsuki took the paper money and left without saying a word.

Just as he had walked about fifty meters away, the little girl's father caught up with him.

"Little brother, wait a minute!" The man stopped Genji Takatsuki out of breath and handed him a bill of 3,000 yen:

"Thank you so much, little brother! We really can't accept your gift in vain, please be sure to smile at this point! ”

“.” Genji Takatsuki only glanced at the man, and still didn't mean to reach out to take it.

"I think you care about your daughter, right? Oh, if you want to thank me, treat her well. Don't have any ridiculous farce of a mother dying in a car accident when her child is in junior high school, a father and a child quarreling in the Cold War, a family relationship becoming a mess, and a child going to be a gangster. ”

Genji Takatsuki sneered and said a series of words of unknown meaning, which made the little girl's father stunned: "Ah, what are you talking about? ”

Taking advantage of the man's stunned effort, Genji Takatsuki turned around and left again, disappearing into the crowd.

“.” After walking away, Genji Takatsuki couldn't help but sigh.

Even he didn't understand what he had done just now.

Why should I be nosy, why would I help that little girl I didn't know?

Why? There's no reason for it, right?

He used to be the boss of Xiu Ash's "bad three", although he is not as good as the real gangsters who make trouble and fight all day long, but he is definitely not a good person.

Did you change your mood subtly without knowing it?

Senseless, boring, boring, why is it so?

"Hey, what am I doing?" Genji Takatsuki walked alone with his hands in his pockets.

"Hey! You're here! I've been looking for you for a long time! The classmates led by Makoto Kyushu beckoned to him and stopped him from falling into a trance.
