Chapter 59: Tokyo
This kraft archival paper is very high-end, with a red stamp of "confidential" buckled on the red ink.
"Confidential, can I see it? If I leak it, will I be killed? Lu Tiancheng said half-jokingly.
"Not anymore, but you should spend the rest of your life in a small room." Gu Jia said solemnly.
Lu Tiancheng, who felt that Gu Jia was not joking, obediently put away the rotten appearance, untied the cowhide rope wrapped around the buttons, and a small pile of materials appeared in his eyes, along with a few black and white photos.
"It looks a little old." Lu Tiancheng first picked up the black-and-white photos, the photos were a little blurry, but it could be vaguely seen that the photos were a huge building, and the surrounding area of the building was already dilapidated, and there was a gloomy scenery everywhere.
A huge red star and a sickle and hammer symbolizing the workers and peasants create a very bleak sense of simplicity.
"What is this?" Lu Tiancheng seemed to think of something and began to flip through the materials.
"The Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the largest nuclear power plant in the former Soviet Union, 130 kilometers north of the Soviet city of Kiev, is the largest nuclear power plant that the Soviet Union began to build in 1973 and started in 1977." Gu Jia is like a popular science robot, expounding a piece of knowledge that has long been forgotten by the world.
Even children know that the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, a major case known to the whole world many years ago because of the nuclear leakage, is still a big scar on the earth.
Two people died on the spot and more than 200 people were injured by radiation. This accident was classified as a nuclear accident by the world as the seventh level, but fortunately, it was dealt with in a timely manner, which prevented a catastrophe, but even if the dangerous accidents decreased a lot, it still caused a great impact on the accident.
"Does this have anything to do with our mission this time?" Lu Tiancheng asked.
Gu Jia packed all the documents into a cowhide bag, and said with a resentful face: "I hope I guessed wrong." ”
"What did you guess wrong?" The road is the way.
"If the Chernobyl nuclear power plant was caused by stupidity, then don't do it again because of stupidity."
Soon a brightly lit city appeared under the clouds of the plane, because of the light, overlooking in the sky, like a lone lamp above the endless darkness, the plane slowly lowered its altitude, and countless high-rise buildings were overlooked by Lu Tiancheng.
After several hours of long waiting, Lu Tiancheng finally flew from the Western Hemisphere to the Eastern Hemisphere, worthy of a private jet.
"This is Tokyo, one of the most densely populated cities in Asia, with about 6,000 people per square kilometer, which is equivalent to three or four thousand people standing on a football field."
Hearing Gu Jia's explanation, even Lu Tiancheng said helplessly: "What are you doing, why are so many people doing when the area is not large." ”
"Tokyo is a very old city and is also known as the heart of Japan, so I suggest you follow me if you don't know Japanese." Gu Jia said with a slight smile.
"Whoever said it, senior sister, I can say it very well." Lu Tiancheng explained with a puffed chest.
"What the Venetians have learned is not used in ordinary life." Gu Jia patted Lu Tiancheng on the shoulder.
For Tokyo's understanding, Lu Tiancheng mostly saw it from anime and video games, Japan is a paradise for otaku, and it is also a paradise for comic conventions, and the customs industry and underworld companies here are even more domineering.
"Senior sister, why do I keep feeling like we're flying above the sky?" Lu Tiancheng said with some dizziness, this is not to blame him, it is normal for a long time to be hovering in the air and hovering at high altitude.
"We came to Japan to Gasai, and the Tokyo tower doesn't seem to give us enough time, and we need to find another airport." Gu Jia explained.
"We won't crash, senior sister, do you have any parachutes there that you can give me one?" Lu Tiancheng continued to complain about bad words.
"First, we are at an altitude of more than a thousand meters above the ground, second, it is night, even if it is a parachute, you are very likely to fall on the sea, according to your size and the current wind speed outside, there is not much difference between you falling on the sea and falling on the concrete ground, and third, you should not have received parachute training." Gu Jia clearly pronounced Lu Tiancheng's death sentence.
"Didn't you expect me to have a brush with death so soon?" Lu Tiancheng said tightly holding the leather sofa cushions.
After circling for more than ten minutes, the driver decided to leave Tokyo and land in Yokohama, which is relatively remote, although it is safe to drive for a while.
Yokohama is a city close to the sea, and it is also an important city in the Tokyo metropolitan area, one of the three major metropolitan areas in Japan.
There was a roaring sound from the dark sea, and there was no light in the sea, but the wind that swept up was noisy for the arrival of a certain great man.
The rushing air waves whipped up countless seawaters, and there were even a few small fish in the water, and this is a small airport, which is usually only used to park some small amphibious planes and small passenger planes.
Airplanes are no different from e-bikes, and airplanes need enough runways to cushion the impact when landing, and even more so, they need to open their parachutes to increase drag.
The runway here is very short, which is not enough for the Gu family's private jet, fortunately, Gu Jia is recruiting fighter pilots, for them who can use the blocking cable to stop on the aircraft carrier, although this landing is difficult, but fortunately, it is still under control.
The door of the plane slowly opened, and Gu Jia, who was carrying a backpack, began to prepare as soon as he got off the plane, while Lu Tiancheng was holding a paper bag and vomiting wildly when he got out of the car.
"Get in the car." Gu Jia pointed to an old-fashioned Toyota next to him and said.
"Senior sister, can I change the way I travel? I'm a little dizzy right now. Lu Tiancheng explained while retching.
"Another way? Are you going to walk to Tokyo? Gu Jia kicked Lu Tiancheng's ass and said.
"Yamamoto, I told you in advance, I must ask your sister to move out at the end of this month, this is our family, your parents died early, and it will not be easy for you to bring her up. Let her find someone to marry, don't you please, it's better first, and you have to provide for her to finish college? What about your son? You let us drink the northwest wind? ”
A man with a haggard face and a scruffy beard leaning back on an old-fashioned sofa in a gloomy alley in Yokohama City was roaring, the cigarette butt in his left hand had burned out, leaving only a wisp of smoke slowly rising.
The woman opposite the man looked aggrieved, the roar just now seemed to squeeze out the last trace of strength in her bones, the woman stood up slowly, the roar just now had become an endless grievance at this moment, and beads of sweat ran down the corners of her eyes.
"Yamamoto, I know you hate me, and I can't help it, our family can't support Mitsuko's college tuition, so you should give up your sister for me, for Taro, and for our family."
The woman sobbed and said these words, not knowing whether it was helplessness or guilt, the woman had never dared to face the lover in front of her who had worked hard for the family for more than ten years.
The man is called Yamamoto Kazuki, and the woman is called Miko Sato, and like countless middle-aged couples in Japan, most of the reasons why they quarrel and get angry are because of one point, life.
And the last straw for them is Mitsuko Yamamoto, Mitsuko and Kazuki grew up together, after their parents died in a car accident eight years ago, Mitsuko Yamamoto lived with his brother who had just married.
Although her brother and sister-in-law treated her well at first, the passage of time and the birth of her nephew added another pressure to this family that relied on her brother to do odd jobs.
In the end, Kazuki Yamamoto didn't speak, but used his teeth to tear off a piece of dead skin that was whitish at the corner of his mouth.
"I can't harm Photon." Yamamoto Kazuki did not refuse or agree, and looked at the deceased parents in the corner with stupid eyes.
Miko Sato saw that her husband's heart was a little shaky, and she no longer insulted, but said in another sentence: "You have spent a lot of money on Photon in the past ten years, and you are worthy of your parents." ”
There was an endless loneliness in the small room, and a moment later a knock on the door reached the ears of the two men.
Kazuki Yamamoto got up slowly, and his somewhat rickety body seemed to be bent by reality.
"Brother, I'm back." Mitsuko Yamamoto opened his mouth slightly.
In fact, Mitsuko Yamamoto had already returned, but when she heard the noise in the house because of her, she never had the courage to knock on the door.
"Photon is back, have you eaten?" Miko Sato squeezed out a smile and said flatteringly.
"Eat." Mitsuko Yamamoto smiled, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead.
Everyone knew it, but they didn't open their mouths.
The heat wave hit at midnight, and Mitsuko Yamamoto looked at her small luggage, wrapped the white dress on her body vigorously, sighed, and danced layer by layer along with the tips of her hair.
Mitsuko Yamamoto didn't want to get married, but he also didn't want to add more burden to his brother, so Mitsuko Yamamoto, who hesitated, finally decided to leave the "home" where he had lived for ten years.
Mitsuko Yamamoto, who left home in a hurry, plans to find a place to stay first, but where can she go except for her brother and sister-in-law?
At this moment, at the age of twenty, a beautiful life has just begun, but Mitsuko Yamamoto is living on the streets, and Mitsuko Yamamoto, who has been hesitant repeatedly, still dialed a phone call that has been immersed in his mind for many years.
Mitsuko Yamamoto shuddered and pulled out her phone to dial the call, because she wasn't sure if the person on the other end of the line would know her.
