Supernatural ability spring flowers and autumn fall

A week after Sakunosuke Oda left a reminder, Yokohama did indeed enter chaos again.

In the beginning, the chaos happened at night, between the various gangs.From her bedroom on the second floor, Qiu could hear the faint voices coming from the sea in the distance from time to time.Since then, Sakuraba Secondary Bookstore has taken the same actions as when the leader was changed a few years ago, closing the bookstore before sunset so that there is no danger of being attacked.

The current situation is a bit similar to three years ago, but not the same.At that time three years ago, the former leader of the Port Mafia was seriously ill, so it was the other gangs in Yokohama who wanted to take the opportunity to swallow the Port Mafia.Now under the management of the new leader, the port mafia has become stronger than before, and other organizations will not easily invade.

But everything changed at the end of the month. It is said that ordinary people lost their lives because they were involved in the mafia fight for a legacy worth 5000 billion yuan.

It was Oda Sakunosuke who told them the news.When he came to collect the bookstore protection fee on February 2, he told Sakuraba Yasuo and Qiuya what happened a few days ago.

In the evening of the previous few days, innocent civilian passers-by were involved in a block under the jurisdiction of another mafia gang, GSS, causing civilian casualties.

In just one sentence of words, innocent lives are lost in it.

Moreover, it is said that there were overseas forces involved in this incident. Specifically, it was a drug called bananafish that could enhance people's physical fitness in a short period of time, achieving the effect of one enemy against a hundred.

Shuya was standing next to Grandpa Yasuo at that time, and when he heard the news, his body trembled.The first thing that came to mind was to suggest to Grandpa Yasuo to escape again.

However, from the mouth of Grandpa Yasuo a month ago, he felt that the grandfather who regarded Yokohama as his hometown, even if he proposed to leave again, he would only get rejected.

Yasuo Sakuraniwa, who was beside him, noticed Shuya's state, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him: "It's okay."

"...Mmm." Qiu also nodded.

At this time, Oda Sakunosuke found a book from the bookshelf and handed them the check.

It is a book for literacy for children aged three to five.

It was Yasuo Sakuraniwa who stretched out his hand to take it. Shuya shook his head vigorously to make himself look better. Nothing happened now, and the port mafia is so powerful as the governing organization of their street. I really want to Too pessimistic.

"Does Mr. Oda have a child?" Looking at the book, Shuya asked.

"Ah, a few days ago, I met two children who were attacked and lost their parents, so I handed them over to a restaurant owner I knew and adopted them."

"So that's how it is." Qiuya thought for a while, turned and walked into the bookshelf, took out a few books from it and came back, and showed them to Oda: "If you don't mind, these few books can be taken away, because they are too old to be sold. Go out, I can co-author the book you bought and give it to you, it's all the books I used to learn to read before."

Yasuo Sakuraba, who was packing the books, looked at the books that Shuya showed, nodded to Sakunosuke Oda, and then took the books from Shuya's hands and wrapped them together.

"Ah, thank you so much." Oda Sakunosuke scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, you helped us so much before." Qiu also shook his head.Originally, it was the arrival of Mr. Oda that made life better for the two of them in the Sakuraba family.And without Mr. Oda, he would have died in the bookstore the day he met the two underage members of the 'Sheep' organization a year ago.

"Then thank you," Oda Sakunosuke took the wrapped book, raised his hand and rubbed Qiuya's head, and left a candy as usual: "Akiya-kun is about to take the exam, come on."

"I'll see him off, you go back to the second floor to study first." Yasuo Sakuraba said after being silent for a long time at the counter, and Jiang Qiu also went up to the second floor.

"it is good."

…………

"Do you have something to say to me, Boss Sakuraba?" Oda Sakunosuke walked to the corner of the old book alley, turned around and asked Sakuraba Yasuo.

This is obvious, because when he went to the old bookstore in Sakuraba in the past, the owner would only deliver it to the door at most. This time, he followed him so far. There is only one reason that can explain it—Yasuo Sakuraba has something to say You have to tell him, and you can't let Qiu Yejun hear it.

"I do have an unkind request, Mr. Oda." The stern-faced old man looked at the young man in the beige coat for a while in the dark corner, and then bent down and bowed: "If anything happens to me, I would like to send Qiu Please give it to you too."

"Oh, please don't." Quickly helping the elder up, Oda Sakunosuke said: "Although civilians are involved in the confrontation between gangsters, it is relatively safe under the jurisdiction of Hong Kong gangsters here, so you do not need to worry."

"No, it's probably a flashback." Yasuo Sakuraba was supported by Oda, but his head was still lowered and he said to him: "I can always feel that I can't get through this crisis in Yokohama. That's why I thought, I will hand over Qiuya to you. After all, you are the only mafia I have ever seen that does not have a killing atmosphere."

"Then why don't you leave temporarily, Boss Sakuraba." Oda persuaded: "Since you feel danger, you can take Shuya-kun to avoid it, and this kind of behavior is not shameful. If you miss your hometown, you You can wait until the place calms down before coming back. I believe Shuya-kun will agree to such a choice."

"Ah, Shuya suggested this method to me, but I rejected it. Because I can't escape, Oda." Yasuo Sakuraba raised his head and looked directly into the eyes of the man opposite him. The evening sun shone across the neighborhood shops, forming a large shadow.And this large shadow completely covered the figure of the old man, without any sunlight showing through.

"You can understand, Mr. Oda. Once you enter an organization like the mafia, you can't escape no matter what. And once human blood gets on it, you can't wash it off. "The old man spoke softly, as if talking to himself, "And the medicine called bananafish is not a good thing. I also encountered it many years ago."

That probably happened around the Everdark Isle War, and he had already left the Mafia by then.At that time, one of his original juniors came to visit. He admired his combat effectiveness at that time and wanted to ask if he had any tips.After learning that Yasuo Sakuraba was simply good at marksmanship, he left again.When he came over for the second time, that junior excitedly brought good news about a medicine that could make him one against a hundred.However, that junior left forever in the subsequent battle.

Although he doesn't know what the so-called 'bananafish' does, he always feels that it's better not to spread this kind of thing to Japan.After all, everything in life is equivalent, and you have to pay for what you want.

"Boss Sakuraba, so you...!" Oda Sakunosuke understood what he said, but at the same time he was also very shocked.He never expected that the owner of an old bookstore was a member of the Mafia before!

"Yes. And this bookstore has been open for decades, which means that I didn't retire normally before." The old man sighed and continued: "I can probably feel that the point of my destiny lies in this time. I've got nothing left in Yokohama, and the only thing I'm worried about is Shuya."

The child who pulled his sleeve and picked it up three years ago, obviously lost his memory but is very sensible and well-behaved.

He lowered his head again, bowed to Sakunosuke Oda, and made the initial request: "If I don't get through this time, I will leave you to Qiu."

"..." Oda Sakunosuke inexplicably felt that his throat was a little dry, and looked at the bowing old man in front of him.

He wanted to try to make the old man in front of him work hard to survive the catastrophe of the war in Yokohama. After all, it was not long ago that they discussed Qiuya-kun's schooling together, and he still clearly remembered the happy and crying expression of that boy at that time.Oda can imagine how sad he is if he loses this old man whom he regards as a relative.

But this is the only wish of this old man now. If he does not agree, if the old man leaves, he will not be able to feel at ease in Santuchuan.

"I..." Oda Sakunosuke opened his mouth.

"Don't promise him, Odasaku." The voice was interrupted, it was the voice of a boy.

Yasuo Sakuraba and Sakunosuke Oda, who found someone else besides the two of them, immediately looked up and looked in the direction of the voice just now.It was a boy with black hair and black clothes, with a bandage on his body.He was sitting on top of an air conditioner, and the rising first quarter moon cast a blue light on his figure.

"Dazai...? Why are you here?" Oda was relieved to find out that he was an acquaintance.

"I just came to see my friends, and then I found you chatting." Dazai jumped off the air conditioner, and the black windbreaker draped behind his back arced down along his movements, and was still draped over him after he stood on the ground. shoulders.

Dazai walked towards Odasaku, put his hands on his shoulders and looked at Yasuo Sakuraba in front of him: "The child I picked up by myself has to be raised by myself, so what's the point of throwing it to someone else halfway."

"Wait, Dazai..." Oda, who thought Dazai didn't know, hurriedly interrupted Dazai, telling him not to say anything that hurt the old man's mood.

"Still." Dazai smiled slightly, ignored Odasaku's interruption, and looked at the old man in front of him who was about the same height as him: "You, who have been running away for decades, still want to keep running away." ?coward."

"..." Yasuo Sakuraba remained silent.

After speaking, he turned and left without looking at Yasuo Sakuraba's expression, and even called Odasaku to follow when he walked a little further away.

Oda, who stayed at the corner, looked at Yasuo Sakuraba who stopped talking, bowed slightly to the old man, apologized for Dazai's remarks, and turned to follow Dazai who walked away.

Leaving the old man behind, he stood for a long time in the dark corner.
