Chapter 1694


    After thinking about it, he realized that the Japanese followed the Gregorian calendar. 3


    Therefore, the biggest and most solemn festival and holiday in Japan should be the New Year.


    The University of Tokyo seemed to have entered the eve of the winter vacation period at this time,


    and the students were actively preparing for their examination now.


    As Charlie walked around the University of Tokyo campus, he could not help but think of Nanako


    who was studying at this university. 1


    If he did not see it with his own eyes, he could not imagine how a girl who looked so weak was


    actually not only one of the top students in the University of Tokyo but also a very powerfulbat


    and fighting athlete. 3


    This girl was very full of contradictions.


    As he approached the library, Charlie could see posters of Nanako that were still stuck on the street


    light pole, i


    There was a photo of Nanako wearing a school uniform on the poster, and her smile was very


    eyecatching. 6


    The content on the poster was to call out to the


    students from the University of Tokyo to give their support and encouragement to Nanako, who was


    participating in the International University Combat and Fighting Championship in Aurous Hill. 2


    They had evenbeled Nanako as ''Japan’s No.I'', ''The pride of the Japanese woman’ and ''A strong


    contender for the Olympic Gold Medal’.


    Charlie could not help but shake his head when he looked at the poster.


    With thesebels, it was obvious that Nanako’s ssmates had ced really high hopes on her.


    However, to Nanako, thesebels would have worked a s a form of moral kidnapping to a certain


    extent. 6


    It was almost equivalent to the students telling Nanako all the time that she would have to win,


    otherwise, she would only be letting everyone down. 1


    Compared to using this kind of utilitarian support slogan, Charlie felt that it would have been much


    better for them to simply tell her "Just work hard and do your best. We will still be supporting you


    even if you fail.". 1


    As he thought about this, Charlie shook his head before he sighed. After that, he took out his cell


    phone and took a picture of the poster as a memento, s


    When he saw that it was already gettingte and that the night sky was alreadypletely dark,


    Charlie stepped out of the University of Tokyo.


    After leaving the university, a girl who was singing and ying the guitar by the roadside near the


    university caught his attention. 6


    ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    Many people yed music and performed on the streets of Japan. However, this girl was ying


    and singing an Oskian song.


    The song she was performing was by Pushu. 5


    The phrase ''I have crossed the mountains and seas, and gone through crowds of people; I once


    had everything, but in the blink of an eye, everything disappeared like smoke'' pierced right through


    Charlie''s heart, and it caused him to stop in his tracks immediately.


    The girl looked like she was about twenty years old. She was very petite and skinny, but she had a


    pretty delicate and beautiful appearance. 3


    The girl sang very well, but many Japanese who were passing by simply walked past her coldly and


    indifferently. It was probably because they could not understand what she was singing. They did not


    even bother looking at her at all. 2


    The guitar box in front of her only contained a small amount of Japanese yen. If it were to be


    converted into dors, it might not even add up to fifty dors. 7


    Charlie could tell from the girl’s pronunciation and ng that she should be an Oskian too. So, after


    the girl was done singing and performing her song, he asked her, "Are you an Oskian?"


    The girl nodded before she smiled sweetly and said, "I am from Creekmouth. Are you also from


    Oskia?"


    Charlie smiled as he said, "I am from Aurous Hill."


    After he was done speaking, Charlie asked her again," Are you working or living in Japan?" 2


    "I am attending university." The girl pointed at the University of Tokyo that was not too far away


    before she smiled and said, "I study here. Ie out asionally to sing and earn some money to


    subsidize my own living expenses." 3


    Charlie nodded slightly before he took out his wallet from his pocket. After that, he took out about


    one hundred thousand yen before cing it inside the guitar case in front of her.


    The girl was taken aback, and she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Sir, you don''t need to give


    me so much money...” 2


    Charlie smiled slightly and said, "It is always a joy to meet my fellow countrymen in another


    country."


    After he was done speaking, Charlie turned around and left as he was afraid that the girl would


    continue trying to return the money to him.


    At this time, several young Japanese men came toward the girl. One of them snatched her guitar


    from her before he yelled, "Who allowed you to sing here? Have you greeted the Bosozoku first?


    Furthermore, you are in Japan now! Why are you singing a song in


    Oskian dialect? Are you seeking your death?"
