What is the purpose of being an official in Zongman World?

Have you ever thought that there are countless possibilities in this world?

Sometimes you make an inadvertent choice, and maybe your life will turn in a completely different direction.

Today's little story, which may have happened in a parallel world, originated from the difference between two middle school students.

On a certain day in early April, the cherry blossoms are flying, which is the season suitable for encounters.

"Zero! I kept you waiting." Zhu Fu Jingguang ran down the stairs with a large pile of lunch boxes he had made, and waved hello to Jiang Gu Ling who was waiting for him downstairs.

Jiang Gu Ling lowered his head and glanced at his watch, "I didn't wait long. Let's go, let's go to the park as soon as there are not many people in the afternoon on weekdays."

Jiang Gu Ling and Zhu Fu Jingguang have been friends since childhood. This year, they entered the second grade of middle school together. Because the school just started, the school club activities have not yet started, so the two teenagers have time to catch up after school. return.

In normal years, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, Furutani Rei and Zhu Fu Jingguang have already taken advantage of the holiday before school starts in March to enjoy the cherry blossoms.But this year's holiday, Zhu Fu Jingguang went back to Nagano County to visit his long-lost brother, and he didn't return to Tokyo until before school started, which caused the two's cherry blossom viewing activities to be postponed until today.

The food for viewing cherry blossoms was prepared by Zhu Fu Jingguang in advance and placed in the refrigerator. Since the relative’s house was relatively close to the park, the two teenagers each carried a portion of sushi bento and planned to walk there.

Walking on the road, the two naturally chatted about some recent school experiences. Zhu Fu Jingguang hit Jiang Gu Ling on the arm with an elbow, and made fun of him with a rare wink: "Speaking of it, Ling, why did you reject the classmate Tanaka? Confess, she is recognized by the whole school as one of the top three beauties."

The fact that Tanaka sent a confession letter to Fugu Ling was the biggest news since the beginning of their grade. As Fugu Ling's friend, Zhu Fujingguang was naturally more informed about the news than others. Go out on a date and formally reject the other party's confession.

Jiang Gu Ling said without hesitation: "I feel like she only likes me because of my appearance, and she doesn't know me at all." He paused, and said with a very solemn tone, "If I must find a girlfriend, I hope A soul mate who agrees with your own beliefs and can understand each other!"

"I didn't expect you to be a full-fledged romanticist. If you are not an ideal soul mate, then don't~"

Zhu Fu Jingguang stretched out his hand to tease him, and then the two started laughing and squabbling among friends, one of them didn't pay attention, and Jiang Guling bumped into a kid walking towards him on the street.

"ah!"

"Excuse me……"

Furuya Rei hadn't finished saying sorry, but the little girl who fell down due to the impact was already crying because her new skirt was stained. Furuya Rei and Zhu Fu, who were completely inexperienced in coaxing children Jing Guang was flustered for a moment, completely at a loss.

At this time, the crying little girl's companion, a little girl with a bamboo knife on her back, pulled her up, wiped off the dust on her skirt, and began to coax people: "Zhili is not crying, look, the skirt is not clean." Did you?" He turned around and reprimanded them, "Big brothers, you have to look at the road when you walk! It doesn't matter if you just bumped into Zhili today, if it causes more serious consequences in the future, it won't be undone by an apology."

This little girl has such a powerful aura... Jiang Guling stared at the other party's dazzling golden eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He and Jing Guang were 14 years old and suspected of being a little girl in the first grade of elementary school. Unhappy with education.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my brother's fault." The good-tempered Jing Guang squatted down, put his hands together, and begged the little girls to forgive him again, "Brother, can you please eat ice cream and apologize?"

"This kind of words sound like the lines of a kidnapper. My mother said that you can't eat what strangers give you." The little girl cut back directly, leaving Zhu Fu Jingguang speechless.

Hey, hey, the current little devil is too big for a little devil, right?So vigilant?Fugu Zero couldn't help thinking with a headache.

The little girl continued to raise her head and said: "But judging by the appearance of the two of you, you don't look like a kidnapper, so I will reluctantly agree to your apology."

No way, you just said you were vigilant and then changed your mind... Jiang Guling thinks that children nowadays are really difficult to understand, especially the one in front of him, who is even more difficult to understand than the girls in his class.

"Don't run!"

At this time, there was a sudden noise from behind the crowd, Jiang Gu Ling turned his head subconsciously, and saw a patrolman in police uniform chasing a man, running in their direction.

The patrolman obviously noticed the juveniles gathered, and quickly waved his hands and shouted: "You guys, hide quickly, this man is a wanted murderer! The kind who kills without blinking an eye!"

Naturally, the wanted criminal also saw the four of them, and his eyes passed over the two boys who were not short, and landed on the two little girls, with a happy expression on their faces.

He took out a short knife from his pocket, brandished it and rushed forward, threatening Jiang Gu Ling and Zhu Fu Jingguang: "Get out!"

All this happened suddenly, especially the little girl Zhili was so frightened that she didn't dare to move. Zhu Fu Jingguang dropped the bento in his hand, picked her up in a hurry and planned to escape, but Jiang Guling stopped her in a very tone of voice just now. In front of the mature little girl, standing in the way of the wanted criminal, she slammed the bento box hard at the wanted criminal's face.

If it was normal, facing the vicious wanted criminal with a knife, even if his sense of justice flared up, Jiang Gu Ling would not choose to confront him so recklessly. However, there were two children at the scene, and he and Jing Guang would not be able to run away from the wanted criminal. At that time, maybe the child will suffer, so Jiang Gu Ling stepped forward to delay the time, Jing Guang took away the weaker child, and the other more mature little girl, probably able to escape by herself, Jiang Guling Gu Ling figured it out like this.

The wanted man was furious when he saw him stop him, and brandished a knife to directly stab Jiang Gu Ling's vitals, but because of his short body, he avoided most of it, only stabbing his arm.

Thanks to the reflex nerves that were trained in frequent fights when I was a child, Jiang Gu Ling thought in his heart, his eyes were fixed on the movement of the wanted criminal, and he was always ready to deal with the next blow, not daring to ignore it, but suddenly realized——

"You step back!"

The little girl with the bamboo knife not only didn't run away, but held the bamboo knife, passed him, and rushed directly to the wanted criminal with the knife.

"Wait..." This is not a child's play!

Before Jiang Gu Ling finished his dissuading words, the expression on his face froze there, and he couldn't help reaching out and rubbing his eyes.

After all, the facts in front of me challenge the three views of normal people too much.

A primary school girl, first grade, rushed forward with a bamboo knife in her hand. After dodging the short knife wielded by the wanted criminal, she hit the wanted criminal's chest with a knife in a very standard and handsome posture, and knocked him flying.

In any case, it doesn't look like something a schoolboy can do.

When the bento was spilled on the ground, the cherry blossom viewing trip of Jiang Gu Ling and Zhu Fu Jingguang was naturally ruined.

What's more, they have to cooperate with the police to make a record of this matter. Time delays come and go, and it is estimated that it will be dark.

And walking with them was the little girl who actually defeated the wanted criminal.

After finishing the transcript, Jiang Guling suddenly heard the little girl remind in an innocent and lovely tone, "Uncle policeman, this big brother is injured, he needs to be bandaged quickly, do you have a doctor in the police station?"

The kid actually found out that he had been hiding the fact that he was hurt.

At this time, Furutani Rei knew from the transcript that the little girl was named Wakamatsu Rin, and she was studying in the first grade of the elementary school of the private Hyotei Academy.

Waiting for the policewoman from the police station to help him finish bandaging, Wakamatsu Rin, who was not as tall as a bamboo knife, ran over to him and Jing Guang and said, "Brother Ling, brother Jingguang, thank you for saving Zhi Li and I, shall I treat you to dinner?"

Before Fugu Ling refused her invitation to treat, he heard Rin Wakamatsu say firmly: "Anyway, all the sushi bento you prepared for the cherry blossom viewing have been thrown away, so you haven't got anything for dinner today?"

Jing Guang asked curiously, "How do you know that we are going to enjoy the cherry blossoms?"

"It's very simple. When two boys go out, unless they are part-time delivery workers, or you are going to bring food for an event between friends, few people will carry so much sushi bento. They usually choose to have dinner at the nearest store. You come to the police station like this It’s been a long time, and I haven’t contacted other people to apologize and say that the bento is gone, which means that you prepared the things for yourself.”

The child reasoned with sparkling eyes: "And now is the season of cherry blossoms. In the bag you packed the bento box just now, there is also a picnic cloth prepared for the cherry blossom viewing event. The purpose is very obvious."

Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed: "It's absolutely correct."

Jiang Gu Ling was thinking, was he so smart when he was seven years old?Today's kids are really amazing.

Little did he know that 15 years later, another seven-year-old boy (pseudo) would also surprise him.

"So as a thank you gift for saving people, I'll make today's flower viewing lunch!" The little girl patted her chest proudly and said.

Sitting under the cherry blossom tree in the park, looking at the assortment of food such as tuna sushi, Japanese omelet, bean curd sushi, and plum rice balls covered with a picnic cloth in front of him, Fuguya Ling looked aside and asked the butler calmly Wakamatsu Rin, who said everything was satisfactory, once again realized the fact that the elementary school student studying at the private Hyotei Academy is indeed a rich lady.

"this is for you."

Jiang Guling, who was in a fugue, looked at the plum rice ball that was handed to him. He couldn't laugh or cry about being fed by a child. He took a bite and said, "Thank you."

Rin Wakamatsu glanced at him secretly, "Because I don't know what kind of food you guys like, so I had to ask Uncle Hashida to prepare all the bentos for viewing flowers with various contents."

"It's very rich," Zhu Fu Jingguang praised, "I only made one kind of bento to save trouble, and it's still me and Ling who made money."

The housekeeper Hashida smiled and said, "It's my honor to satisfy the two guests. Miss's phone call is urgent, so there is no time for the chef at home to make it. They are all made to order from the nearest sushi restaurant."

After talking about the scene, in order not to disturb the lady and the guests enjoying the cherry blossoms, the butler left.

"Brother Zero, remember to apply medicine on time for the injury on Brother Zero, otherwise, if there are sequelae, it may affect future tennis playing." Wakamatsu Rin is still like an adult, preaching Jiang Gu Ling who doesn't care about the injury, "I knew There is a tennis player who did not pay much attention to a shoulder injury at the time, but then almost ruined his career."

What Rin Wakamatsu was talking about was the future Tezuka Kunimitsu. At the moment when she had witnessed Echizen Nanjiro winning the championship, she knew that her younger cousin and younger brother, who were just born two years ago, were named Keigo Atobe and Genichiro Sanada respectively. I have already firmly believed that this is a sports world where everyone loves tennis.

Jiang Gu Ling was slightly taken aback, "How do you know I'm playing tennis?"

"That's right, Xiao Lin, how do you know that Zero belongs to the tennis club?" Zhu Fu Jingguang also became puzzled.

Wakamatsu Rin said with a smile: "It's very simple, judging from the position of the callus on Brother Zero's hand." It was because she guessed that Rei Furutani was practicing tennis that she was so nervous about the other party's injury. , was injured to save her and Zhili, even if she didn't need the other party's help.

"Little Lin, you guessed right, but I don't take tennis as my ideal in life." Facing such a smart little girl, Jiang Guling couldn't help explaining to her with the same attitude as an adult, "It's just that I'm facing my classmates. Please, join the tennis club to make up the numbers."

Because of the super-developed motor nerves, many sports clubs sent invitations to Fuguya Rei in the first year of the country. In the end, he couldn't resist the plea of ​​a senior and joined the weakest tennis club in the school to make up the number of people. Influenced by Jiro's winning of the world championship, the number of people joining the tennis club has increased sharply this year. Rei Furutani was originally planning to resign from the club, but he was still the senior who hugged his thigh and cried and begged him not to let him leave, so he reluctantly continued to stay in the tennis club inside.

"I guessed it wrong?" Wakamatsu Rin's tone was a bit inconceivable. Generally speaking, don't Japanese middle school students choose clubs according to their ideals?Especially in the hot-blooded sports fan comics like Wang Wang, "What is the ideal of brother Ling?"

Once reborn, Wakamatsu Rin's face is also much thicker. At least in her previous life, it was absolutely impossible for her to call two 14-year-old boys with a face. In this life, she has grown up from a baby, and she is used to acting according to her body age. And it is very convenient to act as a child.

Zhu Fu Jingguang hooked Fugu Ling's neck, pointed at the cherry blossoms dancing in the sky, and said with a smile: "This guy and I both plan to be policemen in the future~"

Wakamatsu Rin stretched out his hand and caught a falling cherry blossom, "It's a great ideal!"

In the first life, Wakamatsu Rin's father was a policeman by profession, so she naturally had a good impression of people in this profession. Now that she knows the expectations of these two teenagers for the future, the favorability of the two teenagers can't help but be higher because of their brave actions.

"I think Xiao Lin is also very suitable to be a policeman. Your reasoning ability can't even catch up with many adults, let alone your super swordsmanship." Zhu Fujingguang recalled that he just ran away with the little girl in his arms. After a few steps, he learned the news that the prisoner had been knocked down, and the one who knocked down the prisoner was Wakamatsu Rin who he hadn't expected at all.

"Haha," Rin Wakamatsu laughed dryly, and couldn't help but reflect on whether he was too conspicuous today, making him look abnormal in the eyes of outsiders?He quickly showed off in a very proud tone, "I have a very powerful kendo teacher. Sanada-sensei used to be a policeman, and many seniors in the dojo are also policemen!"

Jiang Gu Ling asked, "Does Xiao Lin want to be a policeman in the future?"

He wanted to be a policeman because he wanted to find the family of Dr. Miyano who suddenly disappeared. Jing Guang was affected by the death of his parents and wanted to punish rape and eliminate evil, so as to avoid more tragedies like him.

And the little girl in front of her looks like a big lady who has no worries about food and clothing. In the future, she will probably choose a decent career to work comfortably in a high-rise building. This is very natural.

Wakamatsu Rin thought for a moment, then couldn't help shaking his head: "I haven't thought about this problem, but being a policeman seems very good, so I don't have to obey the ban on knives!" At the end, his tone was quite excited.

It's not bad to use a bamboo knife, but Wakamatsu Rin was used to the feel of a real Japanese knife in his previous life, and it's really awkward to use his bamboo knife. If you are a policeman, you don't have to obey the ban on knives, you can use real knives to fight!

Looking at the excited look of the little girl, Jiang Gu Ling sighed slightly, she is really a child, being a policeman is such an easy and simple thing to say, but he did not say it to frustrate the child's interest.

Zhu Fu Jingguang even applauded and cheered for him, "If Xiao Lin becomes a policeman in the future, she will definitely be our school girl. As seniors, we will definitely take care of you~"

"It doesn't matter who takes care of who," the little girl raised her eyebrows flamboyantly, "Even if I become a policeman, I'm definitely the best one!"

Laughing and laughing under the cherry tree, in order not to waste food, Jiang Gu Ling and Jing Guang were full this time, but the children’s appetite once again surprised Jiang Gu Ling, which was almost the same as their usual appetite. Is kendo such an energy-consuming thing?Furuya Zero, who didn't know much about kendo at that time, subconsciously thought of this.

However, three days later, Rin Wakamatsu's child was surprised at the school gate and found Rei Jianggu who had not been reexamined properly. She pressed her to go to the hospital for a follow-up visit, and scolded him for not caring about his body. This is a later story.

As a result, irrational relatives of patients encountered trouble in the hospital, and the wound was ruptured under the obstruction of Jiang Gu Ling. In the end, the relying child Rin Wakamatsu picked up the broom next to him and knocked people unconscious.

To make matters worse, the doctor diagnosed Rei's injury later that the recovery period would be extended. Facing Rin Wakamatsu's frozen gaze, Rei Furutani had to obediently nod in agreement and signed a lot of unequal treaties.

The first-grade primary school students obviously had an easier time than the second-year students. Rin Wakamatsu came to check on him every few days to see if he had followed the doctor's orders. Every time we go together, we will run into some troubles on the road, and in the end, Jiang Guling is so used to it that he becomes numb.

I also learned not to push forward until the injury is healed, just stand aside and cheer for the first-year children.

After coming and going, the three of them became friends from familiar faces. Jiang Gu Ling and Zhu Fu Jingguang no longer wondered about the frequency of accidents around them, and regarded it as an advance rehearsal before becoming a police officer in the future.

When Rei Fuguya was studying at the police academy, Rin Wakamatsu met his friends of the same period, Ida, Matsuda, and Hagiwara through him, and then Rei Fuguni found that Xiao Rin's accident physique had escalated again. The criminals were still fighting alone. This time they traveled together and encountered a gang committing crimes head-on. In the end, the criminals even used timed explosives. Fortunately, Matsuda had already learned this bomb disposal method in the police academy. In the end, the crisis can be turned into safety.

Looking at the three Idas who knew nothing and praised Xiao Rin's superb swordsmanship, and hit all the prisoners at once, Jiang Gu Ling broke into a cold sweat, determined to avoid another major incident before graduating from the police academy. Everyone still It's safer not to get together first.

When their police academy graduation celebration was held lively, it had been several months since Rin University started school, and Furutani Rei, who was sipping sake, looked at Rin who was exuberant at the celebration, and planned to wait for her 16th birthday next year. Confess to her.

When did I realize that I had feelings for Rin that went beyond friendship, Rei Furutani can't remember, maybe it was at Rin's high school graduation party a few months ago?

He went to Bingdi to pick her up, but found that there was a boy pestering her endlessly. In desperation, Jiang Guling relied on his face of pretending to be a high school student without any pressure, and stood up and said that he was her boyfriend.

As soon as Rin heard his words, she held his hand very cooperatively, and nodded seriously: "Yes, he is my boyfriend, Nakajima-san, you should give up."

The boy named Nakajima shook his head frantically, with an expression of disbelief, "I don't believe it! I've never seen this person before, Wakamatsu-san, you must be lying to me!"

Rin pulled Fugu Rei's collar and kissed him on the cheek, "Do you believe it now?"

At that moment, the beating heart in the chest told Fugu Ling: You are finished!

However, Rin was only 15 years old at the time. As a future police officer, Furutani Rei warned himself to be patient and at least wait until Rin was 16 years old before confessing—this is the minimum age for women to marry under domestic law.

Confession on the premise of marriage is the only legal solution Jiang Guling can think of at present.

But before Jiang Gu counted the days until Rin's 16th birthday, he first waited for ZERO's entry transfer order, followed by an order from his boss to let him go undercover and sneak into an international criminal organization.

Jiang Gu Ling hesitated for a long time, his sense of responsibility for ideals and work made him unable to refuse, but he knew very well what taking on this task meant.

After taking over the mission, he was not allowed to appear in any public places or contact any friends during the first year of sneaking in. The department is using this vacant period to eliminate his original file and forge a fake identity.

Rei Fuguya looked at the messages sent by his friends on his mobile phone, and was silent. Date had already joined the first search department, Matsuda and Hagiwara both went to the explosives disposal team of the mobile team, and Jing Guang went to the Public Security Department of the Metropolitan Police Department.

In the past, friends would ask him where he went and why he didn’t contact him. Later, he probably realized that it was inconvenient for him, so the number of such inquiries gradually decreased. Only Hagiwara once sent a message saying that he met Rin Wakamatsu when he was dispatched to the police to deal with the bomb. The little girl was still as sharp and powerful as before, and she dealt with the bomber in two or three strokes.

Rin: Where have you been?Why didn't you reply to the message?

……

Jiang Gu Ling flipped through the information one by one, finally sighed, and turned off the screen.

In mid-April of the following year, he received a notification from his superiors that the file was completely deleted, and he was prepared to contact that organization.

In the early morning of April [-]th, Fugu Ling disguised himself and manually delivered a letter to Wakamatsu House.

There are only three short lines in the letter——

I am sorry.

Rin, I like you.

If I end up... come back, please give me an answer.

*

Fugu Ling didn't expect to meet Rin again in such a frightening situation.

He knocked away Rye's shooting hand, and leaned out from the rooftop to investigate Jing Guang's situation, but met a pair of bright golden eyes that were so familiar that his heart skipped a beat.

It turns out that his new contact person is Rin!

It turns out that Rin also joined ZERO!

Under the ups and downs of emotions, I still remember that Sui Bo himself set up an act with Rye, it was already Fugu Rei's instinct broke out, and his mind had completely flown to Rin and Jing Guang.

Since Rin was the one who came to rescue, he couldn't let the organization notice any clues that might reveal the other party's identity!

*

On the day of working in the restaurant, pretending to be a waiter in order to organize espionage, Furutani Rei, who has changed his name to Amuro Toru, suddenly discovered that Rin was having a date with the kendo gym junior she had mentioned for dinner at this restaurant.

Suddenly conflicting moods filled Furutani Rei's heart, although reason told him that Rin and Genichiro Sanada may not necessarily be boyfriend and girlfriend relationships, not to mention you have been away for so long, just a vague confession, Rin No reply is required for you.

But although reason is clear, emotions cannot be controlled and suppressed by reason.

With such contradictory psychology, Jiang Gu Ling deliberately avoided the perspective to avoid being discovered by Rin, but then a murder case occurred in the restaurant. During the confession, he was identified by the bad-tempered intelligence target President Yamamoto.

Facing Shang Lin's cold gaze, Jiang Gu Ling finally had no choice but to maximize his acting skills, playing the image of a clumsy waiter in order to dispel other people's suspicions, and asked the restaurant manager for leave as soon as the murder case was solved Leaving early, intending to slip away.

"Where are you going?"

However, in the underground parking lot, a familiar voice stopped his pace.

Jiang Gu Ling turned around and saw that Rin was standing behind him with his hands folded on his chest, with a bright smile on his face.

"Should I call you Toru Amuro, or (Rei Futani), or...(R)?"

For the two nouns Fugu Zero and R, she didn't make a sound, but just made mouth shapes.

Facing the smiling Rin, Furutani only felt his scalp go numb.This is too bad, he is very familiar with this kind of smile, every time Rin smiles like this, someone must be in trouble.

"Haha, Miss, I don't understand what you are talking about..." Jiang Gu Ling, who was not sure whether there was surveillance around, had to continue to use his acting skills, acting as if the other party had admitted the wrong person.

Rin Wakamatsu stroked his bangs impatiently, "Don't worry, I've already confirmed that there are no surveillance cameras around. As for the surveillance cameras in the underground parking lot, I have already been hacked, and no one will listen to them." to the content of our conversation at this moment."

"cold……"

Rin's words, Fugu Ling naturally believed 100%, but he was unwilling to recognize each other before, because he was worried that his identity as an undercover agent would hurt her.He has always known that Rin's force is very strong, and now he has become a top elite who is not inferior to his ZERO, but only in the face of her matter, rational thinking cannot function normally.

"You give me enough time!"

Wakamatsu Rin couldn't bear it anymore and rushed forward, grabbing him by the collar, "A man who doesn't even have the courage to listen to the answer is the worst!"

"No, Rin, I..." Before Jiang Gu Ling could finish his sentence, he was grabbed by his collar and lowered his head, his lips turned cold, and he was completely dumbfounded.

"This...Rin, this is...I..."

Completely incoherent up.

"Fool!"

Wakamatsu Rin, who was still bowing her head and shyly, stood up on tiptoe and kissed again, "This is the answer..."

Jiang Gu Ling wrapped his arms around Rin's waist, like embracing a lost treasure.
