Chapter 426: Lost and Crazy
Walking out of the convenience store, the street is full of cars.
Ryuji Amamiya turned around and walked into the alleyway, holding a bento in his hand, thanks to Fusang's relatively developed catering industry, a simple bento also has vegetables and meat in it, at least he can eat enough.
It was already night, and he walked with his head down in a raincoat, and the occasional pedestrian on the road would avoid him, treating him as a silent and withdrawn person, which also saved him a lot of trouble.
Less than 100 meters away from the convenience store, he came to his current residence.
It was an old building, and the once beautiful white skin had fallen off, revealing a mottled gray cement surface, and it looked like the face of an old woman who couldn't save it with heavy makeup.
This building is a standard unfinished building, which was originally to be demolished, but it was dragged for various reasons, and it seems that the two sides did not negotiate, and later with the transfer of the nearby commercial area, it also lost its attached value.
It's convenient to rent it to all kinds of people after it has been transformed into a cheap rental house, and it doesn't require identification, but most of the people who live here are not serious goods, and they are human batteries with wine girls, third-rate cowherds, extreme thugs, and black-hearted enterprises.
Most of the people who live here are as rotten as this building, and once they stay here for three months, they will be assimilated into similar garbage.
Ryuji Amamiya's group of people are not all the way, but they can't help but wonder if they will one day die on the side of the road like their neighbors who work in Paqingko's shop and no one collects their bodies.
After all, he had fled all the way.
Hiding here is also to avoid the pursuit of the Onmyoji.
This hiding, for more than two months.
At first, he carried a knife with him when he went out, and then slowly got used to hiding, so he also had a good exchange with a few neighbors nearby, deliberately contaminated with the smell of people at the bottom of the society, and encountered several searches and arrests on the way.
Amamiya Ryuji looked down on the residents and tenants in this neighborhood at first, but after getting along for a long time, he gradually changed his opinion, this group of people may have some garbage, but in fact, there are not so many, they just have their own way of life, and there is no lack of shining points, and there are even many that are extremely scarce in the samurai and Chinese families......
Kindness.
Even if this kindness is based on the common sense that the weak must huddle together to survive, at least when dealing with him, a stranger whose origin is unknown, who hides many secrets, they retain a respectful attitude of not asking each other, and will hand a cigarette to the patrol in charge of security and say a few kind words when the inspection comes.
Even though Ryuuji Amamiya knew that he was not on the same road as these people, he still couldn't help but stay here for an extra month...... He even felt a hint of relief, the worldly aura and human touch had suppressed the violent ghost aura in his body.
I had just returned home with my lunch box when I suddenly heard a voice.
He opened the door and grabbed the old umbrella beside him, any sharp metal could kill in the hands of a swordsman.
Then he heard the sound of stir-frying, accompanied by the aroma of grease.
As if hearing the movement of the entrance, the little girl in the apron ran over: "You're back!" ”
Seeing this little girl, Ryuji Amamiya dropped his umbrella and frowned, "Hey! Why are you here again? ”
The girl wiped her hands and pouted: "First, I don't call Hey, my name is Aosaki Koharu!" ”
She glanced at the bento box in the man's hand, and said disgustedly: "I came to cook for you, why did you go to buy a bento again, put it in the refrigerator, it will be ready immediately, wait for it." ”
Ryuji Amamiya had a headache: "I also told you not to break into my room without permission, otherwise it will ......"
Koharu smiled disapprehantly: "Otherwise, what? Do you want to hold me? ”
Ryuji Amamiya stared at her very seriously: "It's not funny. ”
"Slightly." Koharu stuck out his tongue and turned around and ran towards the kitchen.
Ryuji Amamiya silently removed his raincoat, changed into slippers and walked indoors...... Sure enough, the living room was also cleaned, and after opening the window for ventilation, there was a smell of grass in the air after the rain, and behind the building was a hillside, and a small river could be seen.
He and Aosaki Koharu are also neighbors, but the other party lives on the fifth floor, and the two met more than a month ago, when Aosaki Koharu's father ran away, and she was going to be arrested by the casino to pay off her debts.
What kind of resistance can a little girl who has just turned sixteen have, and she was almost ruined by the black bear-like pole at the entrance position, Amamiya Ryuji was tormented by ghosts, and she was very angry, so she seized this opportunity to vent once, and sent this group of people to the hospital, and also changed the residence of Aosaki Koharu, from the fifth floor to the fourth floor.
Since then, this little girl has been entangled with his uncle.
In fact, in Fusang, picking people up and going home is not a big deal at all.
God's treatment of young girls has long been a social phenomenon, which has already appeared, and sooner or later it will also be overflowing.
Fuso has too many people, huge pressure, and a whole set of exploitation system from top to bottom in the social structure, and the pressure of internal competition is huge, and ordinary people can easily fall into the bottom of society and cannot turn over.
Ryuji Amamiya didn't want to leave any fetters and concerns, he also deliberately withdrew a sum of money when he went to the convenience store this time, this account was the black market account he had prepared before, and the money left to Aosaki Koharu was enough for her to live to her twenties, and even enough for her to go to college.
After today's pass, he will move out tomorrow, and he has not decided where to live, but if he stays too long, he will be found sooner or later.
At the dinner table, looking at Aosaki Koharu smiling like a flower, Ryuji Amamiya thought about it for a long time and didn't know how to speak.
He could see that this little girl had the heart to treat herself as a brother and a relative, but unfortunately he himself was already in danger.
And when I saw Aosaki Koharu, I couldn't help but think back to the amamiya Maki who was still wandering outside.
My niece doesn't know what to do now, and she thinks it's been a hard time.
What should a blind woman do in this society?
"Why do you always like to come to me?" Ryuji Amamiya asked after eating.
"Staying alone anyway is also staying." Aosaki Koharu smiled: "With an uncle here, I feel like I have an extra family." ”
"I also have family." Ryuji Amamiya said softly.
"Really? I haven't seen it yet, can you introduce me to it? ”
"She's a girl, about your age." Ryuji Amamiya stared into the girl's eyes and said, "She's strong, just as strong as you." ”
"No matter how strong you are, you will be scared to stay alone." Koharu Aosaki's fingers gripping the plate were slightly harder.
"Yes, even the strongest people will be afraid." Ryuji Amamiya looked at the suitcase and said, "So I'm going to find her." ”
Aosaki Koharu lowered his head and said nothing.
Ryuji Amamiya continued, "I left you a sum of money in your mailbox, enough for you to live alone for a long time, so you'd better get out of here and live in another place...... If you want to leave, just talk to the uncles and aunts in rooms 209 and 304, they will have a way and are more reliable and good people. ”
"They're not good people." Aosaki Koharu looked at him, his eyes red: "They are afraid of you and want to please you, so they pretend to be good people...... The only person who helped me that day was you. ”
"This is different, they are just ordinary people, they don't want to set themselves on fire, and the people at the bottom have to be cautious if they want to live." Ryuji Amamiya said solemnly: "It's not that they don't want to help, but they can't help you, kindness is not a cheap virtue, don't resent those who don't have power, if you are unwilling, you will become strong." ”
He couldn't help but reprimand and educate a little more, and soon caught a glimpse of the tears in the girl's eyes, swallowed the words again, sighed and said: "That's all I have to say, I can still eat a meal you cooked before leaving, I'm already happy, and you are also happy." ”
Aosaki Koharu sniffed and wiped the corners of his eyes: "I will be obedient." ”
Ryuji Amamiya began to pack up the things in the house, his things were very few, and after turning around and walking into the bedroom, he had just removed the knife hanging on the wall, and suddenly saw a suitcase placed in the house.
He immediately turned around and exited the room, asking loudly, "How did the box in my room come from!" ”
"Someone sent it." Aosaki Koharu replied, "I see other people have received these boxes as well." ”
A great sense of crisis enveloped Ryuji Amamiya, his temples throbbing, and the swordsman's sixth sense warned him that something extremely bad was about to happen.
He was about to speak.
All I heard was a furious and deafening sound.
In his eyes, Aosaki Koharu was engulfed by the disembodied light and flames.
……
In the severe pain, he felt the world spinning, unable to distinguish between heaven and earth, unable to see the surrounding scene clearly, the ringing in his ears was accompanied by the tingling pain in his head, and his bones and muscles were screaming.
There were some gaps in his memory, and he shook his head vigorously before he could barely get his chaotic thinking back to normal.
Ryuji Amamiya lifted his face, his scarred face covered in blood and pitch-black scorch, and his eyes reflected the burning floor.
The six-story rental apartment burned in flames, and the violent explosion swept through three floors, destroying more than a dozen rooms, and the old rental building was already crumbling.
Black smoke shot into the sky, and the firelight stretched his shadow long.
Standing alone in front of the billowing black smoke, he saw several corpses hanging by his bedside, gradually turning into char in the flames.
Some are his acquaintances, some are migrant workers who drank with him only yesterday, and some are ...... I had been talking to him until now.
Amamiya Ryuuji's material wound, his eyes became extremely scarlet, his hand holding the knife trembled and trembled, and after trembling violently, he miraculously regained his stability.
"Onmyoji ......"
He whispered, "This time, I'm not hiding. ”
"I will use your lives to comfort their spirits in heaven!!"
……
Three hours later.
A car was parked near the street.
"Your Excellency, there's just an explosion here...... "The driver just inquired about the news and reported it.
The windows were lowered and raised.
"We're late." Amamiya Masahiro sighed softly: "It seems that I have to go there for a trip." ”
"Where are you going?"
"The hell is closed."
