Faced with the strike-up of strangers, especially the strike-up of the opposite sex who doesn't look like a good person, but is very active and difficult, Yoshida Saki has no way to speak up bravely even if she wants to refuse firmly.

And just when the gangster wanted to take Yoshida Saki away forcefully, Subaru, who had noticed this, chose to help Yoshida Saki out.

After all, she has secretly protected Yoshida Saki in school for a long time. Even if she feels that Yoshida Saki has made friends and doesn’t need her help anymore, if she encounters trouble outside of school, she alone can’t deal with it yes.

Subaru felt that his behavior of stalking was helpful to some extent, and he didn't care that the other party was a social scum much older than himself, so he rushed forward and blocked Saki Yoshida behind him.

Of course, the gangster is not willing to let his prey be snatched away by others, not to mention that both Subaru and Yoshida Saki are just high school students. Subaru.

Then... a physical confrontation broke out between Subaru and the gangster.

Originally, it would be nothing if it was just like this, but during the conflict, Subaru noticed something dropped from the gangster's pocket to the ground.

Those were contraband drugs, syringes, and catheters that Subaru had only seen on TV news, but he had never seen in real life. There was also an unopened safety item.

Social scum, contraband, rubber boots (you know), Subaru realized what kind of person the gangster in front of him was, and also thought of what might happen if Saki Yoshida was taken away by the gangster .

If it was just an ordinary gangster, Subaru would not really want to fight with the other party. After all, he does not have any violent tendencies, as long as he drives the other party away.

But if it was a scum who was contaminated with contraband and was about to attack an underage girl, Subaru had no intention of letting her go, and even became even more angry.

The simple physical conflict turned into a mutual fight, or Subaru unilaterally beat the scumbag. There were more and more onlookers around, but no one chose to take the initiative to call the police.

On the one hand, the ones being beaten were gangsters, and on the other hand, there were factors of social indifference and no meddling in it.

It wasn't until the gangster was beaten away that Subaru picked up the contraband on the ground, and then called the police.

"As for the classic hero saving the beauty, if Subaru hadn't rushed out, then the life of that girl named Yoshida Saki might have been completely destroyed!"

"...There is no if, in fact, I beat that bastard away and chose to call the police."

Subaru had already remembered, although he didn't remember everything completely, but the next thing still had some impressions in his mind to some extent.

However, it was precisely because of some impressions that Subaru couldn't smile as easily as Echidna.

"It's not a funny thing, is it?"

"Well, it's really not funny, but shouldn't you express your happiness when facing beautiful and correct things? I don't think I should show an angry expression at this time."

Echidna clapped her hands lightly, and asked with a smile on her face, "Or, Subaru, do you want me to show a jealous expression?"

"Because Subaru, you're working so hard for other girls, so you're expressing my dissatisfaction with a jealous face?"

"...I'm not telling you this."

Subaru sighed. He didn't think that Echidna didn't know what he was talking about. He could only say that Echidna didn't want to answer his question seriously, so she chose to play dumb.

Although the memory is still a little fuzzy, he has already remembered the result of calling the police.

Because of the contraband involved, he and Saki Yoshida were taken to the police station to record a statement. Although Subaru kept repeating that he hoped that the police could arrest those people as soon as possible, the result was not as he wished.

Maybe there is some relationship behind it, or the Japanese police are used to working without effort, and the arrest efficiency of those who use contraband can be said to be pitifully low.

Not to mention all the gangsters, just the gangster who was interrupted by Subaru to strike up a conversation with Yoshida Saki and then beaten away, the police did not catch him in the first place.

After realizing this, and realizing that he and Saki Yoshida should have been targeted by that gangster, he also gave up on calling the police, but chose to silently protect himself and Saki Yoshida with his fists.

So, every day after school, he would hang out with the gangsters outside the school. Sometimes he would stare at the gangsters of Saki Yoshida, and sometimes he would pick up some gangsters who surrounded him. I went home safely.

At the same time, rumors about him began to spread in the school.

"So, what I saw in the last trial was like this..."

Chapter 363 Heart of Steel

Subaru is good at fighting, very good at fighting.Even though he has no actual combat experience other than being attacked occasionally by his father and then starting the ground capture of the father and son, his physical ability far surpasses those whose body has been hollowed out by contraband and women, allowing him to easily deal with two or three gangsters at the same time.

Moreover, the so-called actual combat experience is also the experience that can only be gained in battle. As he fought with gangsters, Subaru gradually mastered the skills of street fighting and fighting with one enemy, which also made him even more powerful in fighting people. with ease.

At the same time, because it was the first time to protect Saki Yoshida in front of her, the two became friends who could chat together, exchanged contact information, and talked and laughed in school, just like As Echidna said at the beginning, it seems like an ordinary 'youth school love story'.

However, that is only the surface.

Those street gangsters are basically connected with each other to form cliques. Although they are not related to the underworld, they are not the kind of guys who will choose to retreat after suffering a disadvantage.

Since they can't fight with simple fists, then use weapons, and since they can't beat each other head-on, then they choose to sneak attack. They don't have the slightest dignity, except that they dare not kill people with their own hands and make things big. There is nothing else they dare not do. something happened.

It is precisely because of this that Subaru also began to get injured in the occasional fights with those gangsters. Some of the wounds were still not covered by the clothes, or on the back of the hands, or on the cheeks, which made the students in the school and Subaru's parents noticed.

Subaru didn't hide much from his parents, because he didn't think what he did was wrong. He just wanted to be like his father Kenichi Natsuki, but simply seeking help from the police didn't help. What effect, that's why I chose the way of talking with fists like bad.

Of course, this will also worry Natsuki Kenichi and Natsuki Nakeko, but they also know that Subaru is not doing anything bad. Although they really want their son not to participate in those things, they are worried about the enthusiasm of Subaru.

So in addition to being the father, Natsuki Kenichi once again hoped to solve these things by calling the police, and also began to systematically train Subaru's body to make him stronger.

On the other hand, Nazuki Nakeko would put ointment on Subaru while complaining about Subaru distressedly when Subaru was injured.

"Your parents really love you. Generally speaking, if something like this happens, no matter what the child did is right or wrong, as parents, the parents must choose to reprimand their children at the first time, and then forcefully ask themselves The children don't care about those things anymore."

Echidna looked at Keiko Natsuki applying ointment to Subaru's red and swollen arm with flickering eyes, while Kenichi Natsuki who was sitting beside him was holding a fighting book and talking to Subaru about how to protect himself during a fight .

In this way, no matter what the situation is, parents who will unconditionally support their children are very rare in that world. Most parents just use 'this is for your own good' as a reason to ask their children to do exactly what they want road ahead.

As for Kenichi Natsuki and Keiko Natsuki, even though they knew that Subaru's behavior would hurt them, even though they knew that Subaru's behavior was actually dangerous, they chose not to stop them, but to protect them in another way. own son.

When Subaru didn't know, Kenichi Natsuki would visit the police station in person, and Keiko Natsuki would contact nearby neighbors and friends, hoping that everyone would supervise and resist those gangsters, as long as they found gangsters gathered or there were sneaky people Call the police immediately.

They are all supporting their favorite children in their own way.

"They have always been my proud parents, no...it should be said that it is great to be their children."

Looking at the parents in front of him, Subaru could feel the warmth of the family and the love from his parents, even if it was just an environment made up of false trials.

Although he usually doesn't seem to care very much, he often quarrels with his father and complains about his mother's naturalness, but he loves his father and mother from the bottom of his heart, and feels honored to be their son. happiness.

"However, maybe they have figured it out since then, what I did will not have a happy ending..."

"Oh, remember now?"

Echidna looked at Subaru beside her in surprise, she didn't expect him to say such words suddenly.

"More or less, although some places are still very vague, but basically I can almost remember what happened."

Subaru shook his head, and as the environment in front of him changed into the school again, he also put away the warm smile he showed when facing his parents.

"Fairy tales are really just fairy tales."

"And I don't have a heart as strong as steel like the protagonist in the story..."

Subaru didn't say anything more, but continued to look at the story that was continuing to develop in front of him, which belonged to his past.As for Echidna, she shook her head, and raised the corners of her mouth in an unclear manner.

"Steel-like...heart?"

Echidna was noncommittal to Subaru's words. Perhaps in Subaru's view, he did not have the tough heart to become a hero or a brave man in the story, but Echidna did not think so.

The original Subaru may be like this, after continuous hard work, he will give up on himself when encountering insurmountable setbacks, desperately wanting to prove himself but is not understood by the people he trusts and becomes hysterical, trying hard to protect someone but being hurt by the person he protects And decadent and gloomy, desperately trying to move forward but lost at a loss...

However, no one is born a hero, and the so-called brave is not determined by fate from the beginning.Whether it is a hero or a brave man, it is not what they can do because they are heroes and brave men, but what they do to be called heroes and brave men.

Similarly, the pain experienced in this process, the despair, the loneliness of not being understood, and the loss of being betrayed are all necessary nutrients on the road to success.

In Echidna's opinion, this kind of nourishment was already enough, and this kind of nourishment had already been absorbed by Subaru beside her and became the driving force for moving forward again.

"One cannot gain anything without losing something, and after experiencing countless pains and tribulations, one will gain something stronger..."

"You, you already have that heart of steel."

With a voice that would never be heard by Subaru, Echidna murmured to herself while looking at the trial in front of her.

"Let me see, where will you go this time..."

Chapter 364 It would be great if you didn't save me

A lot of rumors and rumors about Subaru gradually appeared in the school, like Subaru is actually a delinquent, a gangster related to the underworld, and participated in the fights between gangs after school every day.

Or Subaru often bullies men and women in school, taking advantage of his relationship with the underworld to beat male students who don't like him at will, or bully beautiful female students.

There are even rumors that Subaru is actually involved in the sale of contraband. The reason why he went to school with injuries recently is because people from other gangs came to his site without understanding the rules and sold contraband, so there was a fight.

There are various rumors, but in the final analysis, it is said that Subaru is not a good person, but a bad person who has committed a heinous crime.

Originally, the rumors in this regard were not true at all, as long as they were not fools, they would not believe such groundless rumors.

However, on the one hand, Subaru is born with very vicious eyes, which makes people look like a kind person, so people who don't know Subaru will feel like he is a gangster.

On the other hand, the boys and girls who had been reprimanded by Subaru in the school because of campus bullying contributed to this message. The boys mentioned the things they had been injured, and the girls exaggerated the things Subaru taught them. The fake remarks made most people believe that Subaru is not a good person.

Moreover, in the final analysis, human beings are a kind of herd creatures. They will deliberately seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and choose to stand in the group of the majority to encourage the few. The original Yoshida Saki was like this, but now it is misunderstood by most people The same is true of Subaru.

So those familiar classmates and friends in Subaru's class, as well as the teachers in the school, began to alienate Subaru intentionally or unintentionally. No one thought about defending Subaru, no one thought about whether the message was fake, and no one stood up. Say even one word for Subaru.

Even Yoshida Saki, who was protected by Subaru...

"Just like I said, if you don't publicize the good things you have done, what you will get in the end will not be the slightest kindness, but malice from all directions."

Echidna sneered, she didn't have any sympathy for Subaru's experience. After all, this was the path Subaru chose himself, and everything he went through was his own fault.

To her, this is just a joke that looks interesting, but she doesn't like it that much.

"Everyone is like this. When someone is hurt, no one stands up, and no one lends a helping hand to those in need, so society is becoming more and more indifferent, and the relationship between people is becoming more and more superficial."

"That's why you want to be the one who reaches out?"

Echidna laughed, as if mocking Subaru's innocence.

"You don't think you can change the atmosphere of the whole society just by yourself? Even a witch like me can't do this kind of thing!"

"Of course I don't think so. I still have some self-knowledge to what extent I can do it."

Subaru shook his head and said, "I just feel that I have to do this. If no one is willing to stand up, then I will stand up. Even if I can't do anything big, then I will start with the small things around me."

"Whether it's the students in the class or Yoshida's choice, I can understand, because I don't want to be isolated, because I want to integrate into the group, because I don't want to be a different kind, so no matter whether it's right or wrong, I choose the side with more people."

"People like Yoshida, who were isolated, cold, violent, and bullied at the beginning, were finally accepted by others, and finally felt the feeling of friendship. It is right not to want to lose everything because of me."

After all, if he stood up to speak for him at this time, then I'm afraid he would return to the time when he was isolated by everyone again.

No, maybe it will be even more important, because Subaru has become a gangster in the eyes of everyone, so what kind of identity is a woman who speaks for the gangster?

At that time, Yoshida Saki's life will definitely become worse than before.

"That's why you can understand that even if she had a relationship with you at the beginning, she turned to treat you as a stranger after the message appeared?"

"This kind of emotion is really hard to understand. It seems that I have a long way to go in learning about emotion."
