Dragon Clan: Restart your life
Chapter 200 This City
At one o'clock in the morning, the streets were deserted, and the sky trees in the distance were pitch black.
On weekdays, the Tokyo Sky Tree lights up in various colors, but on stormy nights it usually turns off the lights to reduce the risk of lightning strikes.
The street lights on both sides of the street gave off a dim glow under the pouring rain.
There was a lot of water flowing under our feet, and the city's drainage system couldn't handle it after several days of heavy rain.
After refusing to go with the principal, Lu Mingfei and Eriki embarked on their way back to the hotel.
It was a pity that the nanny team who were always on call had disappeared. They walked two streets but couldn't find a taxi.
It's not surprising that there are no taxis on a rainy night like this, but it's a problem when the exclusive nanny group on call disappears mysteriously.
Lu Mingfei originally wanted to call Lu Mingze and ask what the arrangements for tonight's dinner were.
The reason why they came here was because of Lu Mingze's strong recommendation, saying that there is a ramen restaurant in Tokyo that must be visited. It would be a pity if you don't go, brother. Your trip to Tokyo is simply in vain.
But now that I think about it, Lu Mingze is definitely hiding something behind his words.
Thinking of the scene at that time, he couldn't help but doubt the identity of Master Yue.
He and Lu Mingze were discussing the family dinner. Under the arrangement of Lu Mingze in the previous life, he and Eryi "encountered" his uncle's family in that three-star Michelin restaurant. It was a very bad encounter. It was also an extremely embarrassing family dinner.
So in this life, he prevented this so-called family banquet from happening in advance.
It was also during that phone call that Lu Mingze recommended this street ramen stall to him.
He really thought it was a fly shop hidden in an old street. Although the shop was not big, it was famous among the locals.
But he didn't expect that he would meet the principal on this trip. The owner of the ramen stall and the principal were old acquaintances, and he was the previous generation emperor of the eight Sheqi families.
From the perspective of blood relationship, Master Yue is probably the elder of Eri Yi, Yuan Zhisheng and others, and he is very close to them.
Speaking of which, who are Eri's biological parents?
Lu Mingfei quietly looked at Eryi's beautiful side face and found that he still didn't know her well enough.
A sudden realization dawned on him.
Maybe he still couldn't escape the "family banquet" arranged by Lu Mingze.
Lu Mingfei stopped and looked back, looking at the way he came, his eyes seemed to penetrate everything and go to the infinite distance.
The ramen cart two blocks away must have left.
The ramen chef wearing a turban rode his bicycle through the rain and night, returning to his hometown where he had lived for many years.
What past events is he escaping from, who does he confess and pray to every night, and what is he holding on to in this unloved city?
He really...
No blood relatives left behind?
…
…
Sakurai Kogure held an umbrella and stood beside the man.
The heavy rain fell on the top of the umbrella, and the rainwater fell in a line from the edge of the umbrella.
After escaping from the Paradise Hall, they have been wandering around. The adults took her on foot through many places in the city. Everywhere they went, the adults would stare at the scenery in front of them for a long time, as if they were re-walking a path. road, remembering one’s past.
Tonight, the master took her to the old street near Dongda University, but stopped at a corner.
They stood on the street lamp, and the adults kept looking at the end of the street, waiting eagerly, as if expecting someone to appear at the other end of the street.
Sakurai Kogure didn't ask him who he was waiting for. For him, as long as he could stand by his side, she was satisfied.
A dark shadow suddenly appeared in the rain at the end of the street.
A white-haired old man rode a bicycle and drove in from afar.
Judging from the cloth tied on his head, he looks like a ramen chef.
Sakurai Kogure suddenly raised her head and looked at the adult. She felt the adult's hand holding hers tremble. This was an incredible scene. Why would a man as powerful as him tremble at this time? !
In her heart, men are invincible. Even Amaterasu, the leader of the Sheqi family, is definitely no match for you!
But at this moment, the figure who stood tall in the girl's mind was trembling slightly, his lips were trembling, and he couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain in the corners of his eyes.
Sakurai Kogure suddenly discovered that the adult's body turned out to be so thin and slender.
Today he is wearing a plain kimono, with soft eyebrows and soft eyes, like an ignorant boy...
She exerted a little force and held Yuan Zhennu's hand with her backhand, hoping to transfer the warmth of her palm to him.
Yuan Jingnu stared at the old man who passed by them with misty eyes.
The old man seemed to be surprised that there were young people holding hands outside in the rain in the middle of the night. He turned back and glanced at them twice, and then continued to ride the van into the distance.
The streets under the heavy rain seemed so far away, so far away that there were two worlds between them.
He stood on this side of the street, looking at the old man who was gradually going away, but he didn't dare to step forward and stop him.
He stared blankly at his father's figure disappearing into the rain, until for a long time, he opened the umbrella held by Sakurai Kogure for him, looked up, and countless raindrops fell into his pupils.
He slowly opened his hands and closed his eyes, feeling the heavy rain on his face. His expression was calm and solemn.
He is the extremely evil ghost Kazama Ruri.
She is also a young girl who is still at the age of seventeen.
…
…
Master Yue was riding his bike to go home. Today he met some old friends. He was a little worried and a little happy.
What bothered him was that it was never good when Angers came to his door, and he really didn't want to be involved anymore.
He spent decades cutting off the past and withdrawing from the world, not just to return to the world today to see if his name was still spread in the world.
He began to think about whether he should find a place to escape the limelight, or whether he should go directly to France.
The rain fell on the carport of the van, making a crackling sound. The world under the heavy rain seemed silent and vast, and everything was isolated from the outside by the rain curtain.
Except for the past.
Master Yue suddenly raised his head and his eyes fell on a corner on the street. Two figures stood under the street lamp, holding umbrellas and leaning against each other.
It was a bit far away and he couldn't see clearly, but he could vaguely see a man and a woman, both of whom seemed to be young.
Master Yue couldn't help but sigh. Young people nowadays don't know what to think. It's raining so heavily and it's such a late night. Why don't they quickly find a room in a love hotel and get down to business?
He rode slowly past them.
At that moment, he saw the young man's face clearly. His features were clear and his eyes seemed a bit weak, but upon closer inspection, he revealed a coquettish look.
There was an indescribable familiarity, and Master Yue couldn't help but look back twice.
It happened that the young man was also looking at him.
The young man stared at him going away through the rain curtain, his eyes seemed to be dreaming, and there was a sparkle in his eyes.
For a moment, Uesugoshi's eyes became hazy, as if covered with a thin veil, and his pedaling on the bicycle slowed down, as if he was in a trance.
The night wind blew his white hair, and he looked so old.
He was thinking that if he really had a son, that boy would be very beautiful and a little stubborn. There would also be many girls who liked him and would stay with him even in the storm. After all, every boy would Like his father.
Probably, just like the young man just now?
Master Yue, who became sentimental because of Angers appearance tonight, suddenly felt happy that he had gotten rid of Angers entanglement.
If that guy were still here, he would definitely laugh at him for being so narcissistic.
But what he said was true. Shouldn't his son be beautiful, stubborn and attractive to girls?
Speaking of which, it doesn’t have to be a son, a daughter is also good, a daughter as beautiful as the little girlfriend of the Angers student tonight.
When she was little, she wore a white sundress and white socks, with a big pink bow on her head. She blinked her big watery eyes, opened her hands and said in a sweet voice that she wanted daddy to hold her. When she grew up, she wore blue and white clothes. Wearing a white and white sailor uniform, she skips out every morning and goes to school with the little tortoise next door...
Master Yue suddenly sighed.
This ended this meaningless reverie.
Because he is already dying.
He couldn't give birth to such a lovely daughter and such a handsome son.
…
…
Yuan Zhisheng sat in silence in the room, leaning against the wall. There was no light in the room, and the floor was filled with wine bottles.
He held a photo in his hand, and with the faint light scattered from the window, he could clearly see the entire photo with Huang's eyesight.
The photo showed two boys climbing on a small agricultural helicopter to take pictures. The older one was wearing headphones for flying and looked at him with a ruthless smile. The younger one was leaning against the door, with his round cheeks. There is still a bit of baby fat in the sunset.
Both boys are as handsome as girls.
A beautiful figure quietly walked into the room and slowly knelt down beside him.
Yuan Zhisheng didn't look up, he knew it was Sakura coming.
"Would you like to hear me tell you a story?" There was genuine weariness in his voice.
"Yeah." Sakura responded softly.
The room was silent for a long time.
Yuan Zhisheng seemed to be lost in memories, and after a long silence he said softly:
"He is my younger brother, his name is Yuan Zongnu. He looks very similar to me. We are orphans without parents and have been fostered in the mountains since childhood."
"I never told you because he was already dead and I killed him with my own hands."
"Until the last moment, he didn't believe that I would kill him. This evil ghost never regarded me as the target he wanted to hunt. He was covered in blood with blood on his face. He walked towards me from the darkness and said, brother, come back. It's like welcoming me home."
Yuan Zhisheng's face twitched slightly, it was the huge sadness that was stirring up a storm in his heart.
He breathed heavily several times, closed his eyes slightly, and the past reappeared in front of his eyes. The smell of blood seemed to still be floating around, and his voice became extremely hoarse.
"But I still took action because my brother who grew up with me has turned into an evil ghost. The ghost awakened in his body. My brother disappeared, leaving only the ghost that occupied his body. He killed so many people. Innocent girl, and I am already the enforcer of the family..."
"I threw his body in a wastewater well, and his dead eyes stared at the sky. I knew he didn't believe it, and he didn't believe it until his death that I would really stab his heart with a knife, but I just did this, he is a ghost, and I am the one who kills ghosts, this is fate."
"This is fate." He repeated subconsciously.
"After so many years, I thought I had deleted the childish girl from my past, but when he appeared in front of me again, I realized that I had not escaped anything."
The rain outside the window seemed to be getting heavier. The wind rolled the raindrops into water columns. The water columns were like silver dragons dancing in the black night sky. Large swaths of rainwater hit the exterior glass of the building, making an explosion that was close to shattering.
Yuan Zhisheng told Sakura, who was kneeling next to him, the story of him and his younger brother.
"I will never forget the childish eyes looking at the sky in the wastewater well. For this reason, I have nightmares again and again. I dream that I am in a well where I can't see my fingers. No matter how hard I climb, I can't see the light. So I want to Leaving this country, no matter how much power or position I have, can't help me get rid of that nightmare. I can only escape far away, go to a city where no one knows me, and spend the rest of my boring life..."
As he was talking, he was thinking, if they were not orphans, if a man named "father" appeared in their lives when they were young, wouldn't he and the girl be so lonely, and wouldn't anyone bully his younger brother?
If there is a man named "Father" in their lives, he may not take action that night. He will bring the child to the father and let the father decide the child's fate...
But there are no ifs in life.
Yuan Zhisheng suddenly remembered the "Journey to the West" from China that he had read when he was a child.
He told the story to the young girl. He said that the Monkey King, who proclaimed himself the Monkey King, was so majestic, handsome and powerful, but the young girl sadly said that the Monkey King was really lonely.
Yes, the Monkey King is really lonely. He jumped out of the stone and looked at the world in confusion, but he didn't know where he came from and where he was going.
Just like him and the young girl, he didn't know who his parents were, and he didn't know where his future would go at that time, let alone that their brothers would completely go the opposite way on that rainy night...
No.
Maybe they were born on opposite paths!
The colorful neon signs outside the window occupy a large area of view, and the colored lights change in the window panes.
A storm is blowing tonight, rain is hitting the windows, and there is not only the night view of Tokyo city, but also the shadow of Yuan Zisheng himself in the glass.
Those brightly lit buildings stood in the rainy night, like huge stone monuments recording the latest development of the city.
Yuan Zhisheng looked out the window, his eyes between clear and empty.
He thought how big this city was. There were 13 million people living in this city called "Tokyo". It was so big that in the past many years, he and his daughter had been living in the same city. Traveling between different streets but never meeting each other.
He once wanted to escape from the city and the painful past from the bottom of his heart, but now he suddenly found that he couldn't escape.
He can't go back and has no way out.
Fate caught up with him again.
He must face everything head-on, just as he chose to draw a knife and insert it into the heart of a young girl on that rainy night many years ago, and make a choice again.
He slowly squeezed the photo in his hand, like holding the handle of a spider's knife.
No pigeon... until now. In addition, there will be recognition of relatives, but it will never be so hasty. It will definitely be a grand scene.
