Tokyo Fall Guys beats up the supernatural

Page 192

After a long while, she forced herself to pull away and let out a long breath, saying, "It's not that good... How about we look at something else?"

Dou Tang couldn't help but chuckle and asked, "Really?"

Huaiyin nodded stiffly: "Ah, let's look at some others..."

Dou Tang glanced at the price and looked at the receptionist, saying, "Please wrap this up for me!"

Huaiyin suddenly let out a startled "Uh-huh?" sound, as if she were making a soft whimper.

She then quickly grabbed Dou Tang's arm, her eyes revealing worry and inquiry.

The tag on the necklace clearly states that it costs over 100,000 yen, which is enough for the two of them to live on for several months.

Dou Tang nodded confidently at her, but secretly felt sorry for her.

Dou Tang is the type of person who will definitely share anything he has with his family.

If he were wealthy, he wouldn't let Huaiyin suffer. When Huaiyin looked worried about money, he would feel terrible.

Seeing his insistence, Huaiyin understood.

Since she could never change what he was going to do, and since she really wanted the necklace, she slowly let go of his hand.

The receptionist standing nearby looked at the two of them and suddenly had a strange sense of déjà vu.

The tender glances exchanged, the shyness of tugging at each other's sleeves, and the use of the term "brother" that only appears in old Heisei-era dramas... Had they time-traveled?

Does this mean that it's not the Reiwa era, but sometime during the old Heisei era?

Or is this couple a time traveler from the old Heisei era?

I can't believe there are still such simple and genuine love stories these days... *sobs*

As a receptionist for a luxury brand, she had seen far too many men and women, and she believed she had witnessed all kinds of relationships. After all, Tokyo was a materialistic city, and the variety of people who stepped into luxury stores here was probably greater than the variety of human sexual desires.

After all, combining two people's XP will result in many different... But I digress.

The girl was distressed about the money and the boy himself, while the boy seemed guilty for not giving the girl more. The emotions they displayed moved the receptionist, so she sniffed and nodded, saying, "Okay! Please wait a moment!"

After the receptionist finished packing, Dou Tang readily swiped his card, only to be told by the receptionist that the necklace seemed to be on sale, and with the various discounts, it was almost a third cheaper.

Finally, the receptionist said to Dou Tang with great emotion, "Please be happy! No, you definitely will be, so please be happy every day!"

Dou Tang, holding the box and pulling Huai Yin along, walked out of the store and exclaimed, "That receptionist was such a kind person. No wonder she's from a big brand. You can't hear such sincere blessings everywhere."

Huaiyin seemed to understand something. Her face turned red, and she held onto Doutang's fingers tightly, not daring to let go. She leaned against Doutang.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at Dou Tang's face. As they walked, Dou Tang suddenly stopped.

Huaiyin looked up in confusion, only to find that Doutang had been half-leaned against and squeezed to the side of the road, with an advertising billboard right in front of them.

Dou Tang blinked, and asked with some confusion, "...Are you feeling unwell?"

Huaiyin trembled as she reached out and covered her mouth, averting her gaze. Her face was flushed red to the roots of her ears, and she stammered softly, "No, it's nothing..."

Dou Tang was still puzzled, but also a little worried, and said, "I've always felt that Huaiyin, you're very sensitive, aren't you? It seems like your body reacts easily, but I've never seen you catch a cold or get any other minor illnesses. Your physical condition seems pretty good..."

"Hmm, that's strange." Dou Tang looked Huai Yin up and down. "But maybe being a little sensitive is a good thing, right?"

This is a topic I can't answer...

Huaiyin composed herself slightly, straightened her body, and the two continued walking forward.

Perhaps due to his past environment, Dou Tang always believed that holding hands with his family was a normal thing, and he felt the same way when he met Lu Zizhen.

But he never considered that, given Japanese customs and social environment, it is rare to see even close siblings holding hands and walking side by side in the street.

Dou Tang didn't understand, but Huai Yin did. So Huai Yin was often burdened by her own shame and always overthought things.

The two strolled around the street for a while longer. Ironically, this aimless wandering without having to think about anything had somehow become a rare experience for them.

After all, Dou Tang is someone who doesn't go out unless absolutely necessary, and Huai Yin is a complete homebody at heart. Sometimes, the two would rather stay home watching movies and playing games than go out. In their eyes, it's more intimate for Huai Yin to play games and Dou Tang to look at their phones and spend an afternoon together without talking to each other than going out shopping together.

The two randomly picked a restaurant to eat at. Midway through the meal, Dou Tang said, "I suddenly realized that I haven't been to school for a month."

As Huaiyin picked through the vegetables in front of her, she smiled and replied, "After all, my brother has been busy for a whole month... and so many things have happened."

Dou Tang nodded, looking worried, and said, "In that case, what are we going to do about the final exams..."

Dou Tang no longer has the idea of ​​abandoning Huai Yin to die alone. Naturally, he has to consider their future, and even their future as ordinary people.

If one wants to live as an ordinary person, then a better education is necessary, which is why Dou Tang is somewhat worried.

Huaiyin comforted him, "Don't worry, brother. You're so smart, you'll catch up with a little extra help!"

Upon hearing this, Dou Tang smiled wryly and said, "I've always thought I was quite slow-witted."

Indeed, especially in terms of emotional intelligence, she is shockingly slow to react... Huaiyin thought to herself.

She suddenly reached out, lifted Dou Tang's sleeve, and looked at Dou Tang's arm.

On Dou Tang's arm, faint white marks could be seen, which were knife marks belonging to Ren Dou Tang, proof of Mr. Ren's continuous inheritance.

Seeing this, Huaiyin felt a surge of mixed emotions, but in the end, she just smiled faintly, lowered her head, and continued eating.

Dou Tang pulled up his sleeves, his face full of doubt.

Only Huaiyin herself knew that there was once a scar on her forearm belonging to Kiryu Toutang. That scar divided a mole into two parts. It was from when Kiryu Toutang was a child and was scratched by a stray dog's claws while protecting Huaiyin.

Now, the scar has disappeared, along with the mole.

The only record in this world

Only Huaiyin herself was left with that scar.

Kiryu Toudou, his own biological brother, has probably disappeared completely, and even his body is no longer the same...

This also means that the person sitting in front of you is the pure Ren Doutang.

Huaiyin felt a mixture of joy and sorrow as a result.

Chapter 131 Such a life is too contradictory

To this day, Lu Zijun still has no news about her sister.

In the evening, she walked down the street, passing shops and smelling the aromas wafting from restaurants, feeling a pang of hunger in her stomach.

When she arrived at the park near where she lived, she indeed saw the mysterious girl from before sitting on a bench by the roadside.

The girl saw her, gave her a slightly mischievous smile, patted the seat next to her, and gestured for Lu Zijun to sit down. Although Lu Zijun was a little confused, she obediently did so.

The girl took a bento box from the bag next to her and handed it to Lu Zijun. Lu Zijun hesitated for a moment, but finally said thank you.

Instead of immediately eating her lunch, she asked, "What are you doing here again?"

With a plastic spoon from her McFlurry dangling from her mouth, Ren Yuyin said, "I like to eat in the park, is that not allowed?"

Lu Zijun blinked.

The two had been in this relationship for several days. Almost every evening, Lu Zijun could see Ren Yuyin sitting alone on a bench eating. Sometimes there would be bodyguards around him, but those bodyguards never sat down and were all strange, soulless corpses.

Since Ren Yuyin was the only person Lu Zijun knew who could speak Chinese, Lu Zijun had a certain fondness for Ren Yuyin.

Lu Zijun thought for a moment and said, "A couple of days ago, there were unusual celestial phenomena. Do you know what happened?"

Ren Yuyin nodded and smiled, "I know, but that's a good thing. An exorcist killed a powerful evil spirit, which triggered an exorcist campaign against demons and evil spirits."

Lu Zijun immediately became excited and said, "What? An extermination... a campaign against demons? Is it a collective action by exorcists?"

Ren Yuyin nodded again.

Lu Zijun was immediately annoyed, her face showing a worried expression as she said, "Damn it, I missed it again..."

Ren Yuyin stirred the McFlurry in front of her with a spoon, then took out a bag of popping candy and threw it in. The colorful, tiny candies popped and bounced around, then she stirred and pressed them into the ice cream with her spoon, mixing them with the black Oreo crumbs.

She seemed quite pleased to be able to eat this McFlurry, smiling sweetly as she stirred it and said, "What, do you want to make contact with other exorcists?"

Lu Zijun nodded and sighed, "After all, I want to find my sister... given her personality, she might get involved in this kind of thing."

Ren Yuyin turned to look at her, and after seeing the longing in Lu Zijun's eyes, she sighed and said earnestly, "Sometimes, meeting someone you haven't seen for a long time again is not a good thing."

Lu Zijun lowered her head thoughtfully, seemingly lost in thought. She was initially somewhat dejected, but then suddenly shook her head and said firmly, "No matter what kind of life my sister is living now, I will find her!"

Ren Yuyin glanced at the heavy mace she was carrying on her back and asked, "What exactly do you want with her? Why did your sister come to Tokyo?"

Lu Zijun looked up and met her gaze, somewhat embarrassed: "Some...private matters."

“You could clearly contact the exorcist, but you didn’t.” Ren Yuyin began to analyze Lu Zijun’s actions, dissecting him mercilessly.

“You’re capable enough to make a name for yourself in Tokyo, even if you don’t speak the language, but you’re not.”

"If you want to find your sister, then contacting exorcists or engaging with society will improve your situation and increase your chances of finding her, but you still haven't."

Ren Yuyin shook her head: "It doesn't seem like you really want to find her."

Lu Zijun sat there uneasily, his breathing becoming increasingly rapid, gritting his teeth and remaining silent.

Even though someone had touched on her secret, she still didn't get up and continued listening, perhaps wanting to hear what she was doing in the eyes of an outsider.

Perhaps deep down, she herself didn't know why she did it.

Ren Yuyin summarized: "The feeling you give me is that... you don't really want to find her, so you're procrastinating and facing the things you have to do passively, dragging it out for as long as you can, even if you end up scavenging and living in a park as a homeless person, you don't want to face it."

"No, stop talking..." Lu Zijun retorted softly.

Ren Yuyin didn't care and said directly, "The other one is... you are like a hunter who doesn't want to alert the prey, stubbornly waiting for the prey to appear in the most ancient way, and then hunting her in the most primitive way."

"I don't communicate with exorcists, and I don't try to change my living environment, because those at the bottom are the most inconspicuous, the least noticeable... and also the most hidden."

Lu Zijun remained silent, while Ren Yuyin sighed and said, "It seems you have both... Pretending to be the most humble existence is your hunter's instinct, and you are also resisting going to find your sister... This is not an ordinary sisterly relationship."

Being analyzed like this by someone she'd only known for a short time and who wasn't even a friend, Lu Zijun sighed deeply, closed her eyes, leaned back, and said in a bitter voice, "Why... are you so good at judging people?"

"

"I suppose that's one of my abilities." Ren Yuyin pursed her lips. "I can see through people's desires and struggles, but I can't see through their memories. So, although I can sense your emotions, I don't know why."

Looking at the bento box in front of her, Lu Zijun seemed to understand that she needed a way to vent her emotions. So she let out a long sigh and slowly said, "Actually... I'm here to judge my sister."

"Did she commit a crime?" Ren Yuyin asked.

“Because of her negligence, she became my only family member in the world,” Lu Zijun said calmly.

Ren Yuyin was stunned. She stood there, frozen in place, and even her breathing became shallow.

“My village… was destroyed because of her. Our parents, our relatives, everyone who watched us grow up, all died. Only she and I survived.”

Lu Zijun spoke calmly, as if it were a trivial matter to her.

Ren Yuyin looked at the girl in front of her, her heart filled with turmoil.

"Then why... are you hesitating...?"

Lu Zijun gave a wry smile.

"Yes, why am I hesitating?"

"Perhaps, as you said, meeting someone you haven't seen in a long time is not a good thing."

Lu Zijun looked at the city before him. This city was too dazzling and busy. People were rushing around. Despair and hope for life never faded. It happened every moment in every corner of this city.

There are so many different lives here. How will Lu Zizhen live in this city? Lu Zijun simply can't imagine.

"She is my last remaining family member, and I am going to turn my knife against her?"

"What if she's living a happy life? Should I kill her, who's already dead, to make her happy?" Lu Zijun said, as if asking herself.

“She did something wrong, and I should judge her, as the heir of the Lu family and as the executor of revenge.”

"But I am also her sister. She is my last remaining family member in the world. If I kill her, I will be alone in this world forever."

Chapter 131 I am an insurance policy

Lu Zijun's despondency and hesitation were not without reason.

Ren Yuyin never imagined that her life would be so complicated.

The last relative she had in the world turned out to be her greatest enemy, and judging from Lu Zijun's tone, her relationship with Lu Zizhen was quite good, or rather, it used to be quite good.

This is just too difficult... No matter what choice Lu Zijun makes in the end, it seems like he will be in pain forever.

Ren Yuyin sighed.

With tears in her eyes, Lu Zijun looked at the brightly lit city. She felt out of place in this city, like she was searching for a needle in a haystack, yet she prayed that she would never find it.

The pain was extreme.

Lu Zijun clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her flesh and drawing blood. Just as she was about to cry out loud, a mouthful of icy ice cream was suddenly stuffed into her mouth.
