I am practicing in Tokyo

Chapter 106 Legacy Letter

Have you started cheating?

Yadou noticed that the wooden dice in front of the machine panel was shaking slightly. He looked closely at the red hole in the last level. An invisible strong wind surged out and blew away the three marbles on the roulette wheel.

The corners of his mouth raised, and he snapped his fingers. The wind surging out of the red holes turned into suction, sucking in the leaving marbles one by one. From the prize pool next to him, a steady stream of golden steel balls fell, clattering.

Sound.

Cracks appeared on the surface of the wooden dice. He picked it up and put it in the palm of his hand, turning it into a handful of fly ash invisible to ordinary people.

Can't bear it anymore?

Yadou turned his head and looked at Yoshimura Uber next to him. You really have the ability to deceive mortals with such low-quality props.

"Congratulations to this guest for winning a total of 300 million yen."

The person in charge of Pachinko came to the scene clapping his hands, followed by a girl carrying a tray. On the tray were placed three gold medals that could be exchanged for money nearby. The amount of each gold medal was 100 million points.

That is 100 million yen.

"Did he really win 300 million?"

"Really? Is it someone hired by the store? Looking at that kid's appearance, how could he win so much money?"

"I want to try it too. If I win 100 million yen, I won't have to go to work."

The guests nearby were whispering. They didn't believe that the scene that happened in front of them was real, and most of them were full of doubts.

"Let our security guards escort you to exchange cash. The security situation around here is not very good."

The person in charge suggested with a smile. His ruthlessness and decisiveness in the monitoring room could not be seen at all. The crime of robbing money and hurting people was definitely enough motivation for the temptation of 300 million yen.

"No, we will protect ourselves. Goodbye."

Yadou directly picked up three gold medals. This time they were real gold medals. He picked them up heavily and stuffed them into the collar of his sportswear.

He took the Yoshimura Uber and left. The person in charge quietly gestured to his security guards and looked at the two dead people with cold eyes before disappearing at the entrance of the store.

"I've really made a fortune now. With 300 million yen, I can buy the land first and then consider building a shrine."

After Yato and Yoshimura Uber exchanged the 300 million yen check, they walked on the quiet street. I don't know if it was intentional, but their location became more and more remote, away from people.

"Sir Yadou, let me take care of the wild dogs behind you."

Yoshimura stopped suddenly and took out his harmonica. Behind them, there were seven or eight strong men who looked like thugs, holding various weapons and covering their faces with black cloth.

"Hand over the check, or you'll have to suffer another flesh-and-blood pain."

The strong man in the lead has the same tattoo on his neck as the security guard who took away the gambler who lost 30 million yen. It seems that this store's method of recovering funds is a bit violent.

In fact, their van is on standby not far away. After receiving the 300 million yen, in order to completely block the news, the two men will be tied up, added with weights, and thrown to the bottom of Tokyo Bay.

"Human beings are always so greedy, tirelessly pursuing money, longevity, youth, charm and other things, and they will not stop until their last breath."

Yoshimura Uber turned around to face the approaching thugs and played his harmonica.

"Ah hahaha, 300 million yen is mine."

"It's obviously mine. If I kill you, it will all belong to me."

"So much money! Go to hell!"

The thugs stopped, looked at each other ferociously, shouted their inner thoughts, waved their weapons and started killing each other.

Yadou quietly witnessed the scene before him. He was protecting ordinary people with conscience. These scum were not within the scope of his protection. The sound of Yoshimura's piano could multiply their desires and make them lose their basic meaning.

of reason.

After a few minutes, except for the two of them, there were no more thugs standing on the street. Blood was flowing all over the ground, and the dying thugs had stopped breathing and lost their lives.

"That's why monsters like me have room to exist, play with people's hearts, and harvest abilities."

Putting away the harmonica, as soon as Yoshimura finished speaking, a clear sword was placed on his shoulder, the blade pointed at his head.

"Is there one more transaction left? That old woman's fate is the bottom line I can bear. If it goes too far, I will kill you."

The face of the Fujin God behind him was hidden in the shadows, and he threatened again. He glanced at the black box in Yoshimura Uber's hand. This thing was the culprit. Even if he really killed Yoshimura Uber, after seven

There will be another smiling salesman in the next year. Yoshimura Uber is quite measured, so he refrained from taking action.

"I understand, Lord Yadou Kami."

Yoshimura took off his bowler hat, slowly withdrew the knife, and when he turned around and bowed to salute, the man had disappeared.

"Human, is it really worth doing this?"

He sighed, put on his bowler hat, lifted up the black box, and retreated into the depths of darkness.

When Fujii returned home, he finished the dinner prepared by Uncle Amami. In the bedroom on the second floor, he posted today's photo with Noto Kiko on the wall, lay down on the soft single bed, and opened the salary envelope she sent.

Two brand-new Fukuzawa Yukichi fell out, and there was a folded piece of letter paper inside. There was a fragrance that only Noto Kiko had on it, and it was her handwritten letter.

"Fujii-kun, thank you very much for your help and companionship during the past few days together."

On Saturday afternoon, it was raining heavily outside. After drinking a bottle of fruity shochu, Noto Kiko woke up, sat at the kotatsu table, and wrote the beginning.

"Mother-in-law Noto Kiko has gone to the countryside and doesn't plan to come back. She originally asked me to handle the store and the back."

She pursed her lips and turned the pen in her hand. She didn't know how to write for a while.

"I didn't expect to open a shop with you for a day, no! It was a half-day shop, and I earned you two days' salary and next month's living expenses."

Recalling the first time I met Fujii Shu when I was young, she lowered her head a little shyly. She was so drunk that her posture was really not pretty.

"Grandma Kiko donated some savings to the orphanage. I will transfer her small shop to you. The handling fee and contract are ready. After I leave, you can go up to the second floor of the shop and sit at the kotatsu table.

That’s the document above.”

When Fujii saw this, his 2.0 extreme intelligence was running at high speed. He thought of something, took the letter and the key that Noto Kiko gave him, and rushed downstairs.

"It's so late, do you still want to go out?"

Uncle Tianhai, who was watching the show in the living room, asked curiously.

"It's something important."

Fujii put on his shoes and pushed out the door.

Instead of riding a bike, he ran on foot, pulling out phantoms on the sidewalk late at night. He didn't care about hiding his uniqueness. He only slowed down when there were pedestrians on the road, but it was still a sprint of 100 meters.

.

"Although you can cook well and your appearance is barely passable, my sister is just a little moved. After we say goodbye tomorrow, I hope you can mature. Maybe we will have a different feeling the next time we meet."

A drop of tears wetted the letter paper. Why did she have to wait until now to find someone who really moved her? It was too long, too late, what a pity.

"That's it, see you later. Noto Miko Agency."

I ran all the way to the Oden shop in the commercial street, unlocked the door, pulled up the rolling door, and went up to the second floor.

Pushing open the old-style paper door, the bedroom was covered with grass-green tatami mats. There was a page of documents placed on the kotatsu table next to the window, held down by several stacks of 10,000-yen bills. Fujii ignored these and began to rummage around.

, finally found a set of photo albums.

The photo album is well preserved, but the cover is still wrinkled and yellowed by the passage of time. When you open the first page, you can see Noto Kiko as a baby, with a white and tender mouth pouting.

Scroll down to see her as a child, wearing a floral skirt and standing on the stage to participate in a primary school choir competition.

When she was in junior high school, her figure became slim and slender, and she became a beauty. She took a photo with her family at the graduation ceremony, showing a bright smile that was shy.

In high school, she had the same appearance as she does today, even the position of her tear mole was the same. During the graduation trip before the end of high school, she stood for a photo with several girls. She was surrounded by stars like a moon, and she raised her chin proudly.

, with a lively expression.

Noto Kiko! Noto Miko! Are they the same person?

Fujii Shu thought of this, and the faces of the kind Granny Noto and the beautiful Miss Kiko overlapped.

"Is that so?"

He picked up the contract on the kotatsu table. The transfer fee for a store with a total area of ​​127 square meters was a symbolic one yen.

"Goodbye, Miss Noto Kiko."

Maybe Miss Kiko has acquired some secret method to become younger. In this world with monsters, it is not impossible.

He opened the window, and the stars in the sky gathered into the Milky Way. A happy smile appeared on his face, with a hint of expectation for the next encounter.
