ã€ŠStealth in the Cityã€‹


 Ch 1

    Some people say that the spirit of the country Japan is infused in Tokyo Tower. Yu Bai thinks this is not accurate. It may be a rumor or a fabrication, because he is standing on Tokyo Tower now.

    It was too arrogant to say that it was too arrogant to step on the soles of his feet. He was sitting, with a long iron pillar reaching into the sky from behind him. He was leaning on this antenna, which was extremely important to Tokyo TV stations, with his legs stretched into the sky.

    The top of the iron tower is not as pointed and thin as many people imagine. It is surprisingly large. Of course, according to Yu Bai''s feeling, the space capacity is still too narrow.

    Three hundred and thirty-two point six meters in the sky, the small maintenance platform is like an isolated island.

    He looked down and saw the red and white tower, crowded with pedestrians. His sight flickered slightly, and a huge city burst into his eyes.

    High-rise buildings and a constant stream of cars¡ªthat was a scene that often appeared in his dreams.

    Once upon a time, it could be said that a moment ago, he was still in a place that was inextricably connected with the world in front of him, which was called Hokage.

    "Huh."

    Yu Bai exhaled with relief, feeling the biting wind at high altitude, staring down, as if he couldn''t finish it.

    "The wind is a little noisy today."

    He said calmly as the strong wind blew.

    For a while, Yu Bai''s eyes reflected the city covered in glory, and the colors flowing out contained many deep and complex thoughts in addition to the sunshine.

    This intensely personal emotion includes nostalgia, relief, a sense of escape, and a little bit of... excitement.

    This was quite strange to Yu Bai, because just now... it was time to talk about the last world, the Ninja Continent where the war was endless, and there was nothing to arouse his interest.

    Not a powerful enemy, not a treasure, just home.

    Yu Bai is a time-traveler who traveled to the war-filled Hokage. Decades passed by. What makes him different from other time-travelers is that he went through hardships and obstacles and found a way to come back.

    Easier said than done. In other words, being able to wear it back requires a major prerequisite.

    He beat Naruto.

    You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

    It is usually difficult for ordinary people to feel the scene of fighting all over the world, just like the noisy wind of 332.6 meters cannot reach the flat ground. It''s always cold at high places. Yu Bai already understood this simple truth. Later, he gradually understood that maybe this was the invincible loneliness.

    Put loneliness aside for now, it¡¯s useless to think about troubling things. Yu Bai raised his left hand. There were two black marks on the back of his left hand. They were in the shape of a pattern, and they looked like arrows. They were one behind the other, blending into the flesh and blood like tattoos, forming a pattern with an obscure meaning.

    One of the patterns was emitting a faint light and was slowly disappearing.

    After a while, the mark disappeared without a trace, leaving only a broken pattern.

    That''s one more time. Yu Bai thought in his heart.

    "You said you were afraid that I would regret it, so you specially carved two for me." Yu Bai shook his head, "But I have a clear mind and good health. After all the effort, I couldn''t figure it out before I went back."

    Ignore this .It''s true that Yu Bai can make patients with fear of heights stand up suddenly with a trembling heart.

    He clapped his hands and stood on the top of Tokyo Tower, overlooking the entire Tokyo city again.

    "Tokyo, right..."

    "I haven''t been here in the last life, so let''s just have fun here first."

    He has always been carefree. This was the case in the last life, and he is more open-minded in this life.

    Breathing the sweet air of modern society, Yu Bai opened his hands. The steel jungle below seemed very close to him, but in fact it was far away. The slender iron tower seemed to be separated from the city, touching the clouds. A hundred meters down, there were a group of black and blue water-colored buildings. If the steel jungle were replaced by the ocean, they would be like giant reefs, towering and motionless.

    Why must he come back?

    After sinking into practice and killing, Yu Bai held on to his obsession that no one knew about and achieved a rare realization.

    The ancestors also said, "Wealth and honor do not return to their hometown, but they travel at night like fine clothes. Who knows."

    So he came.

    Jump down!

    Looking down from the iron tower, the huge city of Tokyo is endless in all directions, like an ocean. If the gesture is a kind of fish leap, we might as well regard the man jumping from the tower and falling into the water as returning.

    The story of a ninja who returns from Tokyo with his armor removed.

    ...

    ...

    Yu Bai has never had the experience of jumping down from the sky. After all, ninjas come and go, and life is forced. However, this is the first time he has jumped down from a position of a few hundred meters.

    It feels very novel.

    The scenery got closer than expected, red and white steel frames flew past each other, and Yu Bai descended from the sky. Seeing the colorful streets crisscrossing the ground, with cars and pedestrians vaguely visible, he suddenly understood that he was falling into the world.

    The wind howled, and he simply closed his eyes. The majestic perception instantly absorbed everything in the surrounding area into his mind. A bird in the distance suddenly stopped and saw him. It almost forgot to flap its wings. Yu Bai waved his hand in a friendly way. The wind brought the information here and also took it away. This For a moment, the city encountered supernatural powers. In the transition between the two worlds, he actually remembered his years as a ninja, and even dodged past rivals and powerful enemies.

    With his strength, he doesn''t have to worry about landing later. Speaking of which...how strong is he? Yu Bai himself couldn''t tell, after all, everyone he had fought with was gone.

    According to the free fall formula, it only takes eight or nine seconds for a person to jump from Tokyo Tower to fall to his death. At the fifth second, Yu Bai opened his eyes.

    His pupils were still black, but the area around his eyes was stained with orange-red ink at some point.

    Boom!

    Yu Bai stepped on the main steel pillar of Tokyo Tower. The vibration was centered around this, and the troops divided into two groups, brazenly until they reached the radio antenna and the concrete on the ground.

    People in Shiba Park in Minato City heard the dull trilling sound. They raised their heads in confusion and saw a phantom appearing in the sky. Then they felt that they were dazzled.

    Between the buildings, Yu Bai moved like a flash on the glass curtain wall.

    "Both chakra and sage mode can be used here, right... Then it''s okay."

    "So."

    "Where are we going now?"

    ...

    ...

    "Tanaka, what are you looking at?"

    "Oh, it''s Takahashi. , I just seemed to see something outside the window..."

    In a building with a Doling logo, in a spacious office area on the 67th floor, two men were talking in the tea room.

    "Thing? What is it, a bird?"

    "That''s not true, it feels like someone ran over..."

    "Huh?"

    A colleague called Takahashi patted Tanaka on the shoulder, "Don''t think about it, this is the 67th floor "It''s difficult for Spider-Man to get down from such a height."

    "...I must have read it wrong."

    "Besides, even if there is a superhero in reality, he wouldn''t dare to be so arrogant. Does he think he is invincible?"

    "That''s right."

    "Right?"

    "..."

 Ch 2

    The trembling of Tokyo Tower and the shadow of a high-altitude figure were on the corner pages of tabloids for two days, and the person who caused this, Yu Bai, was already walking on the street.

    He couldn''t fly around in the sky all the time. The impact would be bad. When he landed on the ground and walked out of the sheltered alley, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the scene on the road.

    This may be a pedestrian street, placed in a prime location in the port area, bustling with the hustle and bustle of people''s voices and car horns. Although he made a lot of preparations before going back, including psychological preparations, seeing it up close still made his heart ups and downs.

    The neat asphalt road, the street trees on both sides swaying in the breeze, the shops with flashing lights, and the GGs pulled down... Even the people walking by Yu Bai, the clothes they wore, and the words they talked to all made him feel fresh and new, and then he was filled with emotion. .

    "It''s not hot now...there are so many skirts."

    A woman wearing a professional skirt happened to pass by. She turned back warily, but she couldn''t help but blink when she saw someone, and then left slowly.

    Yu Bai began to stroll forward in the direction of the crowd, looking here and there from time to time. In addition to the element of seeing Tokyo for the first time, there was more of a sense of familiarity that was both strange and familiar.

    "It''s great."

    While watching a group of JK (female high school students) jumping around shopping with pearl milk tea in their hands, Yu Bai sincerely praised it in his heart, feeling that all the hardships he had endured in order to come back were not worth mentioning. .

    Of course, this wandering process is also the process of Yu Bai''s observation. It has become his subconscious habit to summarize information when arriving in a new environment. Before traveling back, he did the same thing. This trip can be said to be a one-way journey without return. I took a lot of notes during the trip.

    For example, after arriving, you must first know what year it is. With geography and time, Yu Bai, a former aborigine, will be able to do the following things naturally.

    He would like to call this "After Invincible, I am about to start the urban harem strategy of pretending to be pigs and eating tigers and pretending to be slapped in the face 6.66"... No, this should be a childish first draft, a completely undesirable and inferior idea, normal It is a "guide to ordinary life after traveling back in time".

    It''s just so unpretentious and boring.

    "It seems that there is not much difference between the times and the time in my last life..."

    Half an hour later, Yu Bai came to a conclusion.

    He looked at the electronics and digital products on the roadside, as well as the smartphones in people''s hands, and found that some had screens as big as a short weapon. "There are a lot of new things," he thought.

    In the meantime, a little thing happened. That''s what turned heads for him.

    Yu Bai reflected on this phenomenon. He lowered his head and pulled on the clothes on his body that were slightly different from the modern clothes around him.

    Hokage''s clothes were not easy to put back on directly. To be on the safe side, Yu Bai''s suit was brand new, but even if he asked the tailor, it was still difficult to blend in smoothly with the crowd.

    But this shouldn''t be the main reason. It''s okay for the clothes to be closer to modernization, but if the imitation is not restored, at most it will make people think that this person''s clothes are a bit special or strange.

    So is the problem still there?

    Yu Bai touched his face and felt calm.

    It¡¯s not just once or twice. Yu Bai doesn¡¯t know if other people can understand or have a sense of belonging. Anyway, for him, appearance is similar to strength. It is as common as eating and drinking. He has long been used to standing out. .

    There was nothing wrong with his dress and behavior. After thinking about this, Yu Bai became calm and no longer paid attention to the eyes of others.

    "Then let''s take a look at the next strategy."

    Yu Bai took out a small notebook from his lining pocket, which was "Plan for an Ordinary Life After Traveling Back". He just walked on the road and opened it to read.Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

    "Well, let''s see...''Find a stable job, get married and have children''..." Yu Bai read a line and then got stuck. "It sounds very orthodox, but is it too fast?"

    After thinking about it, he Deciding to put it aside for now, he turned to the next one, "Find a stable job and then pursue your dream... What was my previous dream?"

    While muttering to himself, he tried to read on.

    "Find a stable job and then work side by side..."

    This time, only halfway through, Yu Bai stopped and silently put the notebook back as it was.

    Thinking that he would complete this guide next time, he looked up and found that he had reached an antique gate at some point.

    There is no door leaf. Vermilion door pillars stand on both sides of the walkway. The door is topped by a black tile roof. This is actually a temple gate built directly on the road. Yu Bai scanned the Chinese characters on the symmetrical doorposts with flying dragons and phoenixes.

    Zengshang Temple Balabala.

    "Is there another temple in the city?" Yu Bai looked at the ingenious design, the combination of ancient and modern layout. After passing the gate, the road behind gradually gradually, you can see the main body of the temple.

    The temples in the Tokyo metropolitan area must all be famous, but it was a pity that Yu Bai didn''t understand it. The famous Sensoji Temple had only been heard from anime, and he didn''t know where it was located.

    "Hey, hey, everyone from Cobra Senior Travel Agency, gather here."

    "Auntie, did you see where my selfie stick went..."

    "Is guest No. 3, John, here? You are the only one missing... "

    In front of the temple gate, the crowd was suddenly noisier than other places, and it seemed very lively. After Yu Bai stood for a while, several waves of people were interspersed several times, and he suddenly felt that the surroundings were crowded.

    Loudspeakers, buses covered with banners, and hats of various colors were everywhere in sight. With quick hands and eyes, Yu Bai passed by a couple pushing a stroller. When the other party thanked him, he waved his hand, tilted his head, and looked towards Already in the distance, only half of the red and white tower body of Tokyo Tower was exposed to the construction crowd, and he muttered "tourist attraction."

    Languages ??from all over the world gathered here, and the busy and lively scene in front of him was filled with self-traveling families, tour groups, and local passers-by, which made Yu Bai aware of the prosperous nature of Tokyo, an international city.

    He also heard Chinese among them. Yu Bai wanted to find a quieter place, but someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.

    "Hello sir, I''m sorry to disturb you."

    Yu Bai turned his head and saw a young man wearing glasses, full of student spirit, holding a stack of card-shaped travel leaflets.

    "Would you like to take the sightseeing bus?"

    After returning, he started communicating with people for the first time... Yu Bai seemed a little slow to react.

    "Don''t you understand? Hello..." The young man was very polite and said it twice in Japanese and English.

    "That." Yu Bai raised his hand to signal. He heard the other person muttering in Chinese, but he had just spoken.

    "I''m going, I''m on my own, please tell me earlier."

    The young man''s expression immediately relaxed, "Brother, are you coming? The car is right there. You will leave as soon as you come."

    Hearing the local accent, Yu Bai felt very He was happy, but he tasted the words and body language of the inexplicable sense of d¨¦j¨¤ vu with his raw memories of his previous life. Why did this guy look like someone squatting at the door of a train station or a bus station?

    So he said, "It''s pretty good."

    "Brother, I am an international student working part-time. The seventy-minute ride is very cost-effective! That''s our car over there."

    Yu Bai followed the direction pointed by the other party and saw a double-decker luxury bus. The bus was crowded with people. Flags are flying.

    Yu Bai felt that such an introduction was not bad. He saw that the young man was still chattering, explaining the reason why he came to pick people up, and then talking about studying abroad. After thinking about it, he guessed that this person was from the north, and nodded: "Sightseeing bus? Where are you going?"

    The other person spat out a bunch of place names, like Tokyo Station, Marunouchi, Odaiba, Fuji TV, Ginza...

    and stuffed a card over: "SkyTrip Tokyo Bus".

    The name was noble enough. After thinking about it, Yu Bai thought it was a good name, so he agreed.

    "Okay, brother, that''s great. The ticket is 1,800 yen. How do you pay for it?"

    "..."

    Yu Bai realized that he had overlooked one thing.

    He said no more.

    The silent air seemed to reveal something. The other party seemed to notice it and scratched his head.

    ***

    In the end, the part-time young man left in disappointment.

    Yu Bai watched for a while and saw that the other party continued to pull people nearby without giving up. He felt a little guilty.

    After thinking about it, Tokyo is very big, and he really needs to go on a larger-scale sightseeing. Yu Bai was walking on the roadside, and yellow taxis were waiting for people to take them.

    He knocked on the window of a car casually, and the driver rolled down the window with a questioning look.

    "Hello, I''d like to take a ride." Yu Bai bent down and said politely.

    "Okay." The driver said quickly.

    "Um... I want to ask how to pay? Can..." Pa, Yu Bai couldn''t finish the sentence. The conscientious driver had already got out of the driver''s seat and helped open the passenger door.

    "Please come up."

    The driver returned to his seat and fastened his seat belt. He turned around and saw that the guest was handsome and somewhat elegant. From this, the young guest had not yet gotten into the car. The driver''s first impression of the guest was that he was polite and comely. Good, can''t help but wave and urge.

    Let me ask, who wouldn¡¯t want to drive such a guest with an excellent appearance and an unworldly temperament every day?

    ...By the way, what did the other party want to say just now?

    The driver''s behavior made Yu Bai understand, he was stunned for a moment and then smiled and said: "Thank you."

    The two sat firmly, and the driver asked: "Where to go?"

    The car got in first, but the location was a problem, Yu Bai Bai didn''t worry for long, because he saw the SkyTrip sky trip started not far away.

    "Just follow the double-decker bus."

    "OK!"

    ...

    ...

 Ch 3

    The Tokyo Sky Tour is not just a boast. The tour route is carefully created by a company and team, taking into account the location of attractions, itinerary issues, traffic, weather conditions and other factors to find the best solution. Following it, Yu Bai was greatly inspired. You can take a general tour of Tokyo and enjoy the scenery.

    He expressed satisfaction with this arrangement and would open the door for the guests. The attentive taxi driver was an old man in his sixties. On the way, he curiously asked why he was following the bus, and Yu Bai explained to him. The driver was amused and laughed, and then realized that something was wrong, but he couldn''t figure out what was wrong because he was busy driving.

    Today''s weather is sunny and cloudless, and the sun is shining with sporadic warmth. According to Yu Bai''s previous experience, it should be spring now. The temperature is not high. If you wear less clothes, you will feel cold.

    Thinking about meeting the spring in Tokyo, he said: "Master, do you mind if you open the window?"

    "Please do so."

    Tokyo Station, Marunouchi, Rainbow Bridge...

    Passing by each place, Yu Bai let the wind blow on his face and turned his head at some point. Asked: "What year is this year?"

    The driver glanced at the man, and the doubts and ailments in his heart deepened. "2020." He glanced at the instrument and continued, "March 19, Thursday."

    It''s 2020...

    Hearing this answer, Yu Bai was silent.

    Looking at the speeding scenery outside the window, Fuji TV, Odaiba, Hibiya... There was no more communication in the car behind, and time passed slowly in a quiet atmosphere.

    "It''s already around this time." Yu Bai thought, "The time I traveled through time... what was it? I can''t remember... it seemed like it was a few years ago, a few years ago..."

    He murmured to himself, "A year or so ..." "How many years?" In the end, the number of the tail was still not revealed.

    A long time ago, a young man''s soul passed through the Hokage due to an accident. In that war-torn world and era, the unfortunate thing was that he was born into a secular family with a scholarly family, and had a normal education and bad environment. I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s because he relived two lives and his soul was mentally strong due to soul piercing. His talent is very good.

    Yes, the boy soon discovered that he was a genius among geniuses in the way of ninja.

    The boy adapted to fighting and killing. Decades later, he reached the ceiling of that world, but no matter who or what happened, he always retained the desire to go home.

    This is Yu Bai. Now he looks back and realizes that he really can''t remember a few years ago.

    "Is there any football match going on? My classmates told me that the liberal arts and sciences subjects were cancelled." Yu Bai looked at the city outside blankly. The scenery was so different from that of Ninja Village.

    "It''s been a long time..."

    This seemingly aimless car ride around the city took Yu Bai on a time ship, intertwined with students, work, blood, and cruelty. In the end, there will be a new life at the end. When he came to his senses, he found that the sky outside the window had darkened.

    "We''ve arrived in Ginza,"

    the driver warned with a careful glance.

    "Okay, it''s already evening." Yu Bai looked around. There were brilliant shopping malls on both sides, and neon lights were lit up as if they were free.Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

    "Excuse me, where are you going next?" The driver raised his eyebrows and secretly complained that you had been sitting next to him until the evening. You didn''t know. He was still pretending to see how you paid for it later. "You asked the following bus to stop and get off work. ...It seems that the trip is over."

    "Is that so?"

    Yu Bai searched forward and saw tourists getting off the double-decker bus one after another, chatting and laughing, and going shopping.

    "Then let''s..." He pondered for a few seconds and then said, "Let''s continue driving for a while."

    "..."

    The driver hesitated for a while, and finally sighed and turned the steering wheel.

    On the side of the road, a young international student who had finished his day''s work was about to walk away when he suddenly paused. He rubbed his eyes and looked towards the street, but he could only see the taillights of a yellow taxi.

    "The man in the co-pilot just now, does he look familiar?"

    The international student thought of something and looked in the direction of the street, then at the company car parked next to him. Bus, taxi, bus... um... emmm...

    "Isn''t it possible?"

    ...

    Yu

    Bai asked the driver to continue driving to another area. The driver had no choice but to find a direction to the west. On the way, he couldn''t bear it any longer and asked the man next to him why he was like this. The man said that he just wanted to see Tokyo.

    That was Sbarasi''s answer. The driver was speechless and choked. The taxi got mixed up in the evening rush hour traffic and drove out of the port area.

    "We passed Omotesando..." the driver said.

    "We left Omotesando and arrived at Shibuya..." the driver continued.

    "We are about to leave Shibuya and arrive at Setagaya area now..." The driver made some kind of strange announcement. Every time he passed a place, he kept saying it, trying to remind the guests with this behavior.

    Yu Bai looked at the bright lights outside the window for a long time, and the bright street lights cast light, and responded: "Well, okay."

    The old driver, who will retire in two years, held the steering wheel and trembled slightly. After driving for so long, he I probably understand what this man means. Don¡¯t you want to get around Tokyo by taxi?

    "Guest, you don''t have this ridiculous idea of ??seeing the whole city, right?"

    "Oh?" Yu Bai said, "What''s wrong?"

    He really thought so! The old driver was shocked and said: "It''s so romantic that you have such an idea... But Tokyo is very big, with 23 wards. We followed the bus before and only looked at part of the core area! Your plan won''t work just by looking at it!"

    Listening to the driver''s excited words, Yu Bai couldn''t help but think, "Is that so?"

    "You could have told me earlier."

    The old driver said, " ..."

    The driver''s words made Yu Bai realize something. Indeed, he also realized that it was impossible to understand the entire Tokyo city at once, and it was unnecessary. So, the first day of sightseeing was enough.

    At this time, they were parked at a fork in the road. Vehicles on both sides kept driving into the lanes on all sides. This scene was very common. Yu Bai was tired of seeing it after sitting in the car for a long time, but he noticed a woman on the roadside in front of him. , kept waving to passing vehicles, looking in a hurry.

    Stopping at the traffic light, Yu Bai took a few more glances. The taxi driver, who was worried about his customers, followed his gaze and saw it next.

    Yu Bai glanced at the old driver and turned back.

    "You''re in good shape."

    "Yeah." The old driver nodded.

    The woman was wearing business attire and must have just gotten off work. However, she seemed to have something urgent to do. It was difficult to get a taxi during the evening rush hour. Yu Bai saw the woman shivering slightly in the cold wind brought by the speeding car, her slender figure The figure looked small in the backlight of the city that never sleeps. The oval-shaped face with exquisite makeup was lifeless. In the face of reality, he became tearful, and then the whole process of grabbing his hair, pulling his bags, and stamping his feet.

    "Bring her up later," he said.

    "Ah? But guest, you are still in the middle of your itinerary..."

    Yu Bai said, "It''s okay, I don''t have much schedule anyway."

    "..."

    The driver said in his heart that you still know yourself! The light turned green and traffic surged. The owner said this and the old man stopped worrying.

    The taxi stopped in front of Huajiang Xiaye.

    She was stunned for a moment and immediately opened the car door and got in.

    The rear seats are filled with a faint scent of perfume as the outside air enters.

    "I''m sorry, I''m sorry, I''m really in a hurry..." Pengdi closed the back door with a sound. After she sat firmly in the back row, she immediately began to explain and thank her.

    Huajiang Xiaye was pretty and about thirty years old. When she saw someone sitting in the front passenger seat, she knew it was a stranger who agreed to her temporary ride.

    "Hello, thank you. Thank you very much. Can you take me to my destination first? To express my apology, I will pay the fare for your trip..."

    She said, and the moment her beautiful eyes glanced at the meter, it suddenly disappeared. sound.

    "..."

    What I fear most is that the air will suddenly fall into silence.

 Ch 4

    What''s going on with this number? Japanese taxis are notoriously expensive, one zero, two zero, three zero... She was stupid. The woman couldn''t help but look at the two people in the front seat. What had happened to this taxi? !

    Yu Bai had an inexplicable feeling of pity.

    He hoped that those red lips could finish the unfinished words.

    "It''s okay... you don''t have to bear the cost." Yu Bai took the initiative to ease the atmosphere that turned from truthful, kind and beautiful to stiff.

    "What a blessing." The woman caressed her chest, then immediately covered her mouth in a sense of impoliteness, and said quickly, "I''m sorry."

    Yu Bai laughed in amusement.

    Huajiang Xiaye accidentally caught the small arc, and then was slightly stunned by this smile.

    "New guest, where are you going?" the veteran driver urged impatiently after a rough day.

    Only then did she realize that the man in front of her seemed very good-looking. In a panic, she said directly: "Dark Night Love Hotel."

    "..."

    "..."

    "Okay, it''s on the street where the love hotel is. Let''s go now." The old man, who has been a taxi driver for more than ten years, has never seen anything like this before. He adapted quickly and showed the professionalism of an experienced driver. He stepped on the accelerator steadily.

    Yu Bai subconsciously wanted to look back. Is it urgent? So urgent? But I held back due to etiquette.

    Huajiang Xiaye opened her mouth, and her face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

    She wanted to explain something, but the two men in front of her tacitly put on a posture of "I understand", and she held her words in her mouth for a long time and was unable to say them out.

    Forget it...

    the taxi was moving, and ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye. With a clear address, the veteran driver seemed to have found motivation to concentrate on driving.

    Huajiang Xiaye also slowly calmed down. She looked at her watch anxiously for a while, and then her eyes were attracted to the man sitting in front of her. Then she would look at the meter, which was still beating alarmingly, and count the zeros again. Yes, five digits in total.

    That man is so calm.

    The clothes he wore seemed to be from a brand I had never seen before.

    This profile...

    Huajiang Xiaye quickly dispelled the messy thoughts in her mind. What was she thinking? She already had a boyfriend, and now she still had pressing matters to resolve.

    However, when it came to the so-called "boyfriend"...The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

    she picked up the cell phone she was clutching and looked at the dozens of unanswered messages on it, as well as the irrefutable evidence she had collected in the past few days in the photo album...

    "We''ve arrived at our destination."

    The old driver stopped the car. Across the road was a hotel with ambiguous pink lights.

    There happened to be a man and a woman walking out calmly holding each other''s arms.

    The moment Huajiang Xiaye saw the man, her beautiful eyes widened, and at the same time, her whole person''s energy and energy changed drastically. Peng didn''t even say anything about the fare. He got out of the car angrily and slammed the door. He quickly walked up to the tired couple and gave the man a slap on the face.

    "Scumbag!"

    Yu Bai and the driver turned their heads at the same frequency, following the woman''s steps with their eyes. The man''s shocked eyes finally fell on that loud slap.

    Because things happened suddenly, the process was very short, and there were all witnesses and material evidence, and both people and stolen goods were obtained, the ending was so clear and neat. So when the female white-collar worker sat back in the back seat of the car with red eyes, Yu Bai and the driver were still in the dark.

    It''s done.

    "Ahem."

    I don''t know who coughed first.

    Huajiang Xiaye held her face and lowered her head without speaking.

    "What about that?" Yu Bai found an excuse, "Why don''t you go back the way you came?"

    "That''s great." The old driver quickly turned the car around.

    No one spoke on the way back, and both men felt a little heavy.

    The woman cried.

    At first it was just a small sob, but gradually it turned into crying. Later, it was obvious that she couldn''t bear it anymore, and the woman let out a cry, crying sadly and touchingly.

    In the end, while crying, I also told many emotions including anger, sadness, grievance, etc., such as "I just don''t let you do it", "I already give you pocket money every month", "I feel that the time is too short" ", "Is it wrong to fall in love with the purpose of getting married?" and so on.

    The old man driving the car sighed earnestly, lamenting that the world is difficult and people''s hearts are unpredictable.

    "By the way, her place is coming soon. What about you?" The old driver suddenly asked Yu Bai.

    "Me?"

    "That''s right." The old man glared and muttered matter-of-factly, "It''s time to give up your plan to travel around Tokyo, right? And the fare that has been driving until now should be settled quickly. Ah."

    Yu Bai nodded, this is the truth.

    Thinking about money... He didn''t come back with empty hands. Many things were hidden using space carvings, but it was true that his pockets were empty.

    He thought that he should tell the truth truthfully, so Yu Bai said: "I have no money."

    Tsk~

    The taxi suddenly braked, shaking Huajiang Xiaye who was immersed in crying, and shook his head dizzy. On the back of the chair.

    "Ah, it hurts..."

    Huajiang Xiaye covered her head, not knowing what happened.

    "You have no money?" The old driver''s voice suddenly became louder.

    "Yes, I..." Yu Bai wanted to add.

    "Really or not? You have no money and you took a taxi for so long!"

    "Really, but I..."

    "You have no money!" The old driver asked angrily.

    "..."

    Yu Bai waited for a moment, and then wanted to say, "I..."

    "You have no money!"

    Facing the old man Showa who could not accept the reality for a while, Yu Bai said: "It is true that I have no money, but I I don¡¯t mean not to pay the fare.¡±

    The old man¡¯s eyes seemed to say, ¡°Is it possible that you can¡¯t pay?¡±

    "Can you pay the debt temporarily? I can make an IOU. Driver, please give me your phone number, or the company''s number. When I have money, I will pay it back as soon as possible." Yu Bai said. From the very beginning of the plan he had thought up, his tone and expression were very calm from beginning to end. Whether he was saying the word "no money" or facing the scolding of the old man, he acted completely calm, and this world should be the same. There was nothing that could make him panic. He seemed to be seriously talking about something that could be solved, and he was indeed serious.

    "Are you kidding me!" the old man shouted.

    In the back row, Huajiang Xiaye''s eyelashes were still covered with tears. After being hit on the head, she still cried sadly for a while in the emotion of cheating and breaking up. Then she covered her head and cried while watching, and her crying gradually became quieter.

    What is this?

    "I will definitely pay it back. So is it okay..."

    "No! Your behavior is already illegal. Do you know, young man?"

    "I will really pay it back..."

    Huajiang Xiaye saw this and said this The man who spoke this sentence had a sincere expression, with a bit of... a touch of helplessness?

    "I want to call the police." The old man declared righteously and took out his mobile phone.

    Huajiang Xiaye wiped her face with a napkin. Seeing the driver say this, her heart skipped a beat, and plots from many film and television novels emerged. She and the driver were the only two people in the car, an old, weak, woman and child. If they irritated each other...

    "Then please call the police."

    Yu Bai slumped in his seat and said, looking like a dead pig to outsiders, not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.

    ha?

    "Actually speaking, I also have something to complain about." Yu Bai said, "Your charges are very unreasonable. Why are they so expensive? And..."

    "Taxi charges are high because of high maintenance costs and labor costs. Expensive, national policy regulation and other due status quo caused!" The old driver immediately made a professional rebuttal.

    Should the focus be on explaining why the fees are high? Huajiang Xiaye was confused.

    "Oh? Really? What about this..."

    "This is because..."

    Huajiang Xiaye listened to the argument between the two and felt that the place where her head hit hurt again.

    Amidst the commotion, she tried to regain the previous atmosphere and state.

    He sniffed and squeezed away his tears.

    The sad Huajiang Xiaye''s face collapsed and she looked like she was about to cry. She couldn''t cry anymore.

    The passenger man and the driver old man were still arguing, unable to decide the winner in a short time, and Huajiang Xiaye broke out.

 Ch 5

    "I apologize to you on behalf of this man. Please think deeply about calling the police."

    At eight o''clock in the evening, on the street in Setagaya District, Hanae Natsuye bowed.

    Yu Bai stood beside him with a complicated expression.

    The two people had been driven out of the car by the old driver.

    Yu Bai still remembered that not long ago, when he was negotiating rationally with the old man, the woman behind him shouted unbearably.

    "Hey, that''s enough for you! It''s just the fare!"

    Indeed, it''s just the fare for four hours of continuous driving. The total is 35,196 yen, which is about one-third of the price of an ordinary salaryman. One''s monthly salary, and then the other party paid the money after making bold words.

    He had a high opinion of this girl.

    "The charges have been settled. Of course I won''t pursue it any further." The old man nodded in the car, his breath almost calmed down. "I don''t look like a messy person." After saying that, he glanced at someone.

    "Eh." Yu Bai was not happy. This was obviously saying that he was afraid of who. He wanted to argue further, but the female white-collar woman looked at her like she wanted to hit someone, so he had no choice but to give face to the benefactor who paid.

    The yellow taxi drove away leisurely.

    Huajiang Xiaye breathed a long sigh of relief. Today was a very tiring day for her.

    Forget about going to work, after work, I rely on the information from my good friends to catch the current situation, break up at the speed of light, and meet a strange man...

    When mentioning this stranger, Huajiang Xiaye was speechless for a while. She originally felt quite fond of him because of his friendliness. But I didn''t expect it to end so badly.

    Huajiang Xiaye looked at him and saw that the other party still looked calm and calm.

    Based on her experience, she certainly felt that this was a man pretending to be okay to cover up his embarrassment. After all, for such a big man, he almost took her to the police station. The consequences of being in the police station were that she, who was used to going to work and integrating into the group, could not even think about it. Wish to think.

    However, looking at it like this, Huajiang Xiaye''s thoughts could not be verified. The man stood upright under the street lamp, looking at the lights of tall buildings in the distance from time to time. Looking at it this way, the proportions of the legs are also good...Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author.

    "What on earth do you think?"

    She walked over, she paid the money, and she felt confident in questioning.

    "Thank you for your help..." Yu Bai paused, then thought about it and felt that it would be troublesome to explain the ins and outs, and others might not understand, so he said, "I never want to trick you." "

    I don''t care whether I want to trick you or not. "Huajiang Xiaye realized that it was better not to ask. She put her forehead on her head and waved her hands. In a hurry, she thought that after all, the man would help first, so she could deal with the problem first.

    "What about the fare?"

    Hanae Natsuye asked directly. In fact, she was not an ordinary office worker and had other income, but more than 30,000 yen was indeed not a small amount.

    "Don''t worry, I''ll pay you back as soon as I have the money."

    This aboveboard attitude made her blink, "Then..."

    Some of the measures to prepare the other party for cheating were of no use, and instead she became speechless for a moment.

    She remembered the old man''s presence when she was riding in the car. When she heard the word "call the police", her eyes were casual and ignored... She couldn''t notice anything at the time, but it was so strange to think about it later.

    It¡¯s not about riding in a bully car, but planning from the beginning to ride first and then pay later, emphasizing credit, not being tepid, showing a dignified and dignified way of thinking outside of conventional thinking... The point is, the man¡¯s words and deeds are obviously normal. , it is not an exaggeration to say polite, this gradually goes beyond the category of strange, but special.

    Huajiang Xiaye suddenly felt like the other person was in the game world.

    What kind of woolen yarn, rich second generation, chaebol official? But this man couldn''t even take out his wallet or credit card.

    While she was staring, she didn''t notice that she didn''t care about money anymore.

    "I said."

    Yu Bai approached the dazed woman and waved his hand, "Are you listening?"

    "Ah?" Huajiang Xiaye reacted and realized that she was distracted by thinking about men just now. Her face became hot, " Oh, what''s the matter?"

    "I told you to give me your phone number, contact information, or home address so that I can pay you back." Yu Bai said.

    "Phone number? Address?" Huajiang Xiaye blushed.

    Yu Bai: "...?"

    Huajiang Xiaye quickly returned to normal and took out her mobile phone, "No problem, then please send me your number... Is there a line?"

    She asked carefully, but who knew The other party''s answer was once again unexpected, "I don''t have a mobile phone at the moment."

    "Nani?" Huajiang Xiaye couldn''t imagine who in this society would not use a smartphone.

    "Not yet... Don''t get me wrong, it''s because I haven''t bought it yet, it''s not because I don''t know how to use it." Despite Yu Bai''s shamelessness, he couldn''t calm down when facing the strange look the woman was giving him, "I will buy it right away! Really."

    "You have no money." The woman''s tone was actually a little sympathetic.

    "..."

    Suddenly thinking of a possibility, Huajiang Xiaye asked: "Where do you live? Isn''t there no place to live?"

    Yu Bai was speechless.

    After a long time, Huajiang Xiaye sighed, "It''s amazing, tonight''s unfolding is just like a TV series."

    "It''s like this. I just came to Tokyo..."

    "Okay, you don''t need to explain."

    This night, Huajiang Xiaye was emotionally hurt. At this moment, a special man appeared, and the other man was also because of various reasons. For some unreasonable reason, he owed her money and wanted to ask her for help.

    The man said: "A place to live is the same as a mobile phone, including repaying debts. I can take care of it quickly." ??"

    ... By the way, do you have any recommendations for a place to live?"

    Knowing the man''s name, she only felt that this man was clean and his smile was pure, and some fantasies that would not normally appear appeared.

    She said in a strange way: "Would you like to come and stay at my place? ??"

    ...

 Ch 6

    Since childhood, Yu Bai has had a process of understanding the issue of appearance. But in reality, there is no exaggerated phenomenon in novels. Everyone still gets along with each other in a simple and boring way, so he studied it for a while and stopped caring about it.

    However, he ignored one problem. That is, he is no longer in his original condition. Different circumstances will cause subtle changes. After years of experience as Hokage, countless injuries, sword swings, fear of life and death, courage... and finally reaching a high position, Yu Bai has not Notice that the temperament of a person also shows differences in him. Most of the time it doesn''t happen, but sometimes it shines brightly, attracts others, and amplifies it.

    He would later understand that Huajiang Xiaye, the future landlady, was greedy for his body when they first met, and similar issues.

    Setagaya Futomachi.

    A man and a woman are walking on the road.

    Two adults who seemed to be about the same age were walking side by side on the path between houses. The air was quiet, and they deliberately kept some distance between them.

    Huajiang Xiaye frowned, wanting to break this damn weird atmosphere, so she said with a stern expression, "Hey, let me make it clear to you, you are not living in my house, but I own a property. After work, I also I live an ordinary life collecting rent. I hope you won¡¯t misunderstand me.¡±

    Yu Bai replied: ¡°Well, you explained it very well along the way.¡±

    It seems that Yu Bai already knew the name because of his surprising words. , a woman named Natsuye Hanae (the two introduced themselves), on the way to the apartment building, tried her best to make various supplementary explanations about "come and live at my place".

    It''s not a single room for a white-collar worker, it''s an apartment. If you want to come to my room, you have to knock on the door first... No, you can''t come casually. You must pay back the money you owe. Then I do this without any other ideas. , just to keep an eye on your debt repayment, and to prevent someone from running away and there happens to be a small room left in the apartment. By chance, you asked again, so I kindly suggested that you come and move in under my name...

    and so on.

    Yu Bai''s ears were about to get calluses when he heard it. He even almost knew the origin of the other party''s property and the information about his ancestor, Grandpa Balabala. He didn''t want to hear it, and it was hard to interrupt. Who told him to eat others and take advantage of others?

    Fortunately, it''s finally quiet now.

    "Just turn left ahead and you''ll be there."

    Huajiang Xiaye said.

    Yu Bai: "Yeah."

    She peeked at him. She was so tired from talking that she didn''t have the energy to complain.

    You''re too calm. Normally, shouldn''t you care about the integrity in your sentences? At least he declined or was polite, and he agreed without even hesitating. It was as natural as taking a taxi.

    If Yu Bai heard what Huajiang Xiaye was thinking, he would definitely shake his head. Faced with that situation, would a grown man have any reason to refuse?

    After turning the corner, Yu Bai saw the apartment. It was an old building with a style that resembled that of the turn of the century. It only had four floors. The walls, doors, paint, etc. were in relatively average maintenance. According to the general environment of less land and high space utilization, it was squeezed between houses and was smaller than ordinary buildings. The residential buildings are better, but they are far behind compared to the high-end commercial buildings, like a short and fat man.

    When we get here, we have strayed away from the central area of ??the metropolitan area. It can be said that it is a relatively remote suburb of Tokyo. The road has become narrow, with no more than two cars passing each other, and many infrastructures look old.

    "Very good." Yu Bai said.

    Huajiang Xiaye nodded, crossed her chest and looked at it, "Thank you."

    Yu Bai tilted his head. The other person was wearing professional attire and facing his building. He no longer looked like a clerk but a president. In fact, this was correct, even if It doesn''t look good. In Tokyo, where land is at a premium, this building is worth as much as a company.

    "Everyday life is okay. There is a convenience store opposite and a large supermarket nearby. The disadvantage is that it takes a long time to walk to the nearest subway, and taxis and buses are not convenient." "

    That''s great." Yu Baixiang Looking around, "Landlord, what number do I live in?"

    Huajiang Xiaye suddenly looked a little hesitant, coughed slightly and said, "No number."

    "..."

    She waved her hand, gesturing for Yu Bai to follow. , they passed an open space and entered the apartment. The woman took out the key and opened a room on the first floor.

    "This is it."

    It''s obvious that no one has been in the room for a long time. The air is dull and it feels cramped without furniture. Huajiang Xiaye showed it a little bit. It has an area of ??four and a half stacks. The entrance hall is shared with the bathroom, and it is a mini one bedroom and one bathroom. . To sum up, it is very small, you can sleep there, but don¡¯t think about doing anything else.

    "This used to be a utility room, but it wasn''t used very frequently, so I tidied it up last year." Huajiang Xiaye introduced the origin of this room in a few words, without mentioning the fact that no one was renting the house. All the rooms are full, only this one is left, I kid you not."

    Yu Bai turned around with his hands behind his back, well, turning around was a polite word, and basically stayed where he was.

    To be honest, Huajiang Xiaye was a little uneasy, although she understood that she didn''t need to bear any burden.

    "It''s good." Beyond her expectation, the man said seriously, "The floor and walls are very clean. I can see that the owner is very careful when cleaning. If you want some air, just open the window and blow in."

    With that, Yu Bai opened the door The cool breeze blew in from the small window on the wall facing the door, which also meant that he was willing to live here in his heart.

    "Thank you, Huajiang."

    The man''s expression was still calm, but he was so determined, as if with an affirmative look that suddenly moved Huajiang Xiaye a little. This small house was indeed made by her on a temporary basis. , but when she really wiped and cleaned every corner, no one who came to see the house mentioned this. This complimentary detail made her mood improve unconsciously.

    "No, it''s nothing. Of course women are good at housework..."Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

    Yu Bai: "How much is the monthly rent? And you know that I have no money now... I may have to continue to owe you."

    On the first day, he was asked about the money . After being knocked down several times, he was still not ready. After jumping off the tower, he should not go sightseeing, but should get rid of Bao Anliang first.

    Huajiang Xiaye saw a trace of annoyance on the man''s face and comforted her, "It doesn''t matter. I''ve been mentally prepared for this since I brought you here."

    "As for the rent... it''s not expensive. After all, it''s just a room like this." She considered it. She spit out a number, which was far lower than the average house price in Tokyo, but she didn''t see any reaction from the man, and she was numb.

    After seeing the house and making an agreement, there was a process of getting to know each other, rather than a dramatic process. Huajiang Xiaye felt a little more familiar with the relationship between the landlord and the tenant.

    After giving the key, Yu Bai stood alone on the small and empty four-and-a-half-fold tatami, thinking about how to get the money. Huajiang Xiaye came back and brought a set of bedding.

    "This seems embarrassing."

    "My relatives from the countryside occasionally use it when they come to Tokyo, so you don''t have to worry about it." Natsuye Hanae found a place under the window against the wall and spread a quilt.

    "Then I''ll trouble you." Yu Bai didn''t show any pretense, "Shall I make the quilt myself?"

    Huajiang Xiaye''s hand movements suddenly stagnated.

    She stood up silently and went out. Yu Bai saw that the root of the woman''s neck was a little red.

    With the mattress, the room looked a little bit like it. When the landlady, who was sure that she was not too smart, walked away, Yu Bai snapped his fingers, and a drop of water suddenly condensed in the air, floating in the air, and then more water appeared out of thin air. Appears, and finally forms into a fist-sized water ball. As soon as he thought about it, the water quickly rolled across every dusty spot in the room as if it were spiritual, automatically adsorbing it.

    This is just a matter of habit. Men should be kind to themselves if they can.

    After swiping the water ball to the bathroom, Yu Bai stood alone on the small and empty four-and-a-half-fold tatami for the second time, thinking about the way to get the money.

    Choose the fast one or the slow one?

    If fast, how fast?

    This is a problem.

    After the stale smell in the room was almost gone, Yu Bai closed the doors and windows again. He lay there for a while. The quilt was neat and thick, covering him very warmly. It was the woman''s fragrance that made him feel uneasy.

    There was a small bag placed on the tatami beside it, similar to the style of a waist bag, which was easy to carry. Apart from the clothes Yu Bai wore, this was the only thing Yu Bai brought from the Hokage.

    It has another name, Ninja Tool Bag.

    Yu Bai looked at the ninja tool bag, which was engraved with intensive spells. Today he kept it on his waist. To ordinary people, it seemed to be full of trendy prints.

    Space Ninjutsu is one of Yu Bai''s best abilities. The intensive spells are full of weapons and medicines, but there are no gold or gems. Occupational diseases are harmful to people.

    Thinking about the scenery I saw during the day, the lights at night, and what I saw and heard, the most profound impression was the fare.

    Before Huajiang Xiaye left, she settled the score with him.

    The taxi cost was 32,000 yen, excluding the other person''s seat and any fractions. The rent was 40,000 yen per month. Yu Bai could see that the kind-hearted landlord had tried his best to avoid many unnecessary expenses for him. What about gift money, deposit, rent, agency fee, cleaning fee, key fee, insurance fee, property fee... After hearing this, Yu Bai simply nodded lightly.

    Adding all the miscellaneous things together, Yu Bai currently owes a total debt of: 150,000 yen.

    He reached into his bag, took out a knife, and put it back.

    "Selling knives... is not enough."

    A restless blade flashed inside.

    "Let''s talk about it later."

    "..."

    The first night back, I had a little trouble sleeping.

    It was about nine o''clock at this time, which was not too late.

    Yu Bai stood up, put away his keys and decided to go out for a walk.

    Before going out, he looked back at the space ninja tool bag with the engraved technique, but he didn''t bring it with him.

    The location of his room is at the left end of the first floor of the apartment. There are several other rooms on the first floor, but they are all useful and not occupied. It can be said that it is an exclusive floor. This floor is not big, and Yu Bai can reach it within a few steps. It''s outside.

    "It''s really convenient..."

    He muttered, breathing the night air in front of the apartment space.

    Many of the low-rise buildings in Wuyang are the same rental apartments, inhabited by ordinary office workers or students. He looked up at his apartment. He was short, fat and old, with quite distinctive features. "That woman named Hanae is young and working. She is actually a tenant. She really can''t be judged by her appearance."

    I have a friend in Tokyo . Yu Bai, who was heavily in debt, was a little envious of the building.

    The design of the Huajiang Apartment is in line with the Tongzi Building. The long corridor is ventilated at both ends, that is, the aisles and balconies on each floor are together. At this moment, the lights in half of the rooms were on, and Yu Bai saw a girl walking out of the house and putting away the clothes hanging outside.

    Yu Bai couldn''t help but be attracted. When he looked at it, he suddenly felt that the clothes were very distinctive, with less fabric and bright colors, very much like those from the legend...

    He was about to take a closer look, but the girl who lived on the fourth floor was... Found him.

    "Yeah!"

    Her eyebrows are fresh, she has some baby fat, and her supple and natural skin should be that of a girl. The man''s double ponytail hair style seemed to be frightened, and it swung around. In fact, it suddenly accelerated the speed of putting away the clothes.

    "..."

    Yu Bai felt that he didn''t see anything he shouldn''t have seen, but he didn''t look at anything inappropriate. He lowered his gaze calmly and walked out of the road.

    Sato Liusu was furious. He turned away and hid all his clothes, then hid behind the wall. Recalling the thrilling scene just now, she saw the man''s face. At the critical moment, she stopped shouting the word "pervert". What a blessing.

    Oops, she just took off her makeup, and there is a nasty pimple on her chin, but the light is not good at night... should it be okay?

    After a few seconds of calm, she held the clothes and stuck her head out to observe. The peeping guy had turned his back to her and walked away.

    The other party ran away.

    Feeling relieved, Sato Liusu put the clothes into the basin with a puzzled face.

    That person came out of the apartment, was he the new tenant?

    ...

    Yu Bai walked a short distance and reached an intersection, and then saw a 24-hour convenience store opposite.

    He remembered the landlord''s words, and his eyes suddenly paused. A familiar figure stood across the road, Huajiang Xiaye, carrying a bag.

    He waved, and the other party saw him, and responded after being stunned.

    Yu Bai saw that the other person seemed to have just come out of a convenience store. When the traffic light passed and the person came closer, he said, "Huajiang Landlord, did you buy something tonight?"

    "Yes." The other person stopped in front of him and put his hands behind his back. He hummed softly.

    Under the dim street lights, Yu Bai saw that Huajiang Xiaye''s face was much cleaner. It seemed that it had been re-dressed, and the makeup of a crying girl was gone, and the charm of a mature woman emerged.

    "Take it."

    Huajiang Xiaye handed the bag to Yu Bai nonchalantly.

    Before asking any questions, she immediately said, "I saw that you were alone, with your mobile phone, wallet... and nothing. Today you have become a new member of the apartment calendar... so I bought you some daily necessities."

    "..."

    Hua Seeing that the air was quiet, Jiang Xiaye hurriedly said: "Money is included in the debt. Don''t worry about face at this time. Let''s live life step by step. If you still feel it''s inappropriate..."

    After Yu Bai listened quietly, he stared at Holding the bag, I thought for a while and came up with a truth.

    "Landlord Huajiang, you are so kind to me."

    Huajiang Xiaye''s momentum suddenly weakened.

    "By the way, the rental contract is too late today, right? Why don''t you get it tomorrow? That''s what I''m going to do... Do you have your personal number card? If not, other identification will do. Oh, I almost forgot. , Judging from Yu Bai¡¯s unreliable attributes since we met, you probably still have nothing. That would be really troublesome,¡± said Huajiang Xiaye.

    A personal number card is something similar to an ID card. Yu Bai really didn¡¯t.

    After hearing this, Yu Bai scratched his head and did not dwell on the embarrassment in other people''s words, because he himself was very embarrassed, yes, identification.

    As well as all the subsequent life here... let him take a trip tomorrow.

    Yu Bai smiled at Huajiang Xiaye.

    At this moment, it was about nine o''clock in the evening. March 2020, spring.

    The slightly chilly night wind blew from the other end of the street, lifting the tips of Huajiang Xiaye''s hair. The other party held the messed up hair with his hand, covering up his shame with a gentle smile. At least in my impression, it belonged to a woman. Beautiful smile. Yu Bai was also laughing. Based on the vicissitudes of his past career as a ninja, he felt that there was nothing safer than waiting with someone at the intersection, talking about trivial matters, or carrying a bag and having an ambiguous relationship. He didn''t think much, and he didn''t bother to think. He was simply doing nothing.

    This was Yu Bai''s first day in the world, a world he was familiar with and familiar with.

    However, at this moment, everything stopped, and people and things did not move forward one step further.

    Pfft,

    tsk~

    blood spattered on Yu Bai''s face.

 Ch 7

    March 20, early morning.

    The bright skylight shines through the curtains, casting a warm tone on the interior. The white sheets were a little messy, and Huajiang Xiaye was curled up in the bed. A beam of sunlight stumbled through the floating air and landed on her trembling eyelashes.

    "Today... is Friday. It''s so annoying to have to go to work."

    The phone dinged, and she weakly pressed the alarm clock and opened her eyes.

    What she saw was the familiar ceiling of her home. Did she sleep until dawn? Yesterday, she helped the new tenant buy something at the convenience store, and he took it away. After that...

    Huajiang Xiaye thought vaguely, feeling that she didn''t remember it clearly.

    At this time, the phone dinged again. She took it to look at it, but it was a message from an account named "Meiji" on social software.

    Nagasawa Miki is one of her best friends in Tokyo. The two were high school classmates and now colleagues, working in the same company.

    Miki: "Good morning! How was yesterday? Are you done with Mr. Scumbag?"

    After reading the message, Hanae Natsuye understood what the other party was referring to and couldn''t help but smile bitterly.

    She replied: "Well, it''s over, and I returned home safely."

    She and Miki almost talked about everything, so the other party naturally knew the situation. Yesterday, it was the other party who first discovered the photos of the hotel on Instagram, and then told her intelligence.

    The other party immediately replied: "I''ve told you that man is unreliable, isn''t he just a little bit more handsome? He spends the whole day with five and six people, thinking that he is like Johnny''s idol. He doesn''t work all day long and is idle. The only one who can tolerate this kind of person is you, Xia Ye."

    "But it''s good that that guy didn''t pester you anymore. It''s still a bit shameful."

    "...Are you okay?"

    Miki clicked, feeling very worried. She felt worthless, and the last sentence was obviously worried about her, and Huajiang Xiaye felt a trace of warmth in her heart.

    Xia Ye: "It''s okay. I don''t feel anything anymore. Don''t worry."

    After a pause, she remembered the scene where she happily slapped her face and returned to the back of the taxi. A man in the front seat went from talking and laughing with the driver to turning against him. Recalling it at this time, she suddenly felt funny.

    Xia Ye: "And I met a handsome guy later, who is now in the room downstairs and has become my tenant."

    Miki: "Hahaha, that kind of bastard is not worth being sad at all... What, you are so We met again soon? It seems that we don¡¯t have to go to the nightclub today. Wait, you have become a resident! Natsuye-chan, you have changed and become better..."

    "What kind of handsome guy? Single? What''s your name? How tall and handsome?"

    When mentioning the handsome guy, the other party''s typing speed increased significantly. Huajiang Xiaye could already imagine her best friend''s impatient look. However, for some reason, she didn''t want to tell the other party the man''s information so quickly. She used the all-purpose sentence "I have to go to work" to get over it first.This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.

    In fact, it was time to leave. Huajiang Xiaye looked at the time and hurriedly got up.

    Washing, facial mask, breakfast... Huajiang Xiaye was more efficient than before, and then spent an extra five minutes on makeup.

    Putting on her business attire and carrying her bag, she practiced "Good morning" several times in front of the mirror.

    Once she got the right feeling and was ready, she opened the door and set off.

    Huajiang Xiaye deliberately went down the stairs on the other side so that when she reached the first floor, she could pass by the new resident''s room.

    Unfortunately, the man''s door was closed so early in the morning. Sure enough, I wanted to happen to meet the other person coming out when I was going to work, but it was too difficult to be a coincidence.

    Huajiang Xiaye walked over hard and passed slowly. Everything was as usual. There was no other way. The flat shoes did their best.

    So she retreated slowly, stopped and leaned against the door.

    Listen carefully, there is no sound.

    Are you still sleeping? Didn''t you sleep well yesterday? The next second, she felt like a fool again.

    Huajiang Xiaye herself couldn''t answer the question of how she felt about the man named Yu Bai whom she had only known for a day, and why he did what he did. But because she thought about seeing him today, she even had to fight for a long time to get up. They all became crisp and cheerful, as if they had some kind of motivation for life. Could it be that I am really motivated by sex? No, no, Huajiang Xiaye, you are not such a superficial person...

    She thought, pacing back and forth in front of the door a little angrily.

    Lifting up her lady''s watch, Huajiang Xiaye walked out of the apartment helplessly.

    Snap.

    However, just as she was about to walk out of the apartment door, there was the sound of the door lock opening and turning in the corridor on the first floor.

    There was only one person living on the first floor yesterday. Huajiang Xiaye took back her stepped foot and squatted down, as if her shoes were not worn properly.

    She pulled the heel with her fingers and twisted it crookedly for a long time. When the man behind her appeared rubbing his face, she finally put the feet wrapped in stockings in.

    "Good morning!"

    She showed a beautiful smile to the other party, "What a coincidence."

    Yu Bai saw Huajiang Xiaye at the door and was startled before replying: "Well...good morning."

    "Yu Bai, you are "I woke up very early."

    "No, I was asleep, but someone kept walking around outside the door and woke me up. Landlord, I think the sound insulation here needs to be improved."

    Huajiang Xiaye''s smile became a little forced.

    "Hehehe... Really..."

    She gritted her teeth inwardly, and this time it was a double blow. Improve sound insulation? There is no charge for the materials, but you have to pay for the labor. I¡¯ll make a fuss about it.

    "So landlord, are you going to work?" Yu Bai stared straight at the woman''s beautiful face, then glanced up and down her outfit, and nodded imperceptibly.

    "That''s right."

    Huajiang Xiaye keenly caught the focus of the man''s eyes. She felt that she had achieved some victory this morning. She gently pulled the skirt and flipped her hair. Her little daughter said in a pretentious manner: "After all, I also have to work to support myself. My own."

    No matter how hard you work, can you buy a building in Tokyo?

    Deciding not to complain, Yu Bai withdrew his gaze and walked out of the apartment, and the two of them walked out side by side.

    "Yu Bai, what are your plans today? Are you going out?"

    "Yeah, yes, I''m going to forge my identity certificate... and take care of it. I had some accidents when I came to Tokyo and lost everything on me, so I have to solve these problems. "

    That''s true." Huajiang Xiaye nodded in agreement. It turns out that this man still has common sense, understands priorities, and is very motivated.

    When she thought of something, she said: "Ah, that''s right, you must need some money to do these things, right? You also need to buy a ticket to take the subway..."

    Without saying anything, Hanae Natsuye took out a Fukuzawa Yukichi Ten Thousand Yuan card from her wallet. The big banknotes were stuffed directly into Yu Bai''s hands.

    Yu Bai: "..."

    "Then you owe me 170,000 yuan now, remember to pay it back." Huajiang Xiaye urged after giving the money, but looking at her expression, she was not in a hurry to pay back the money.

    In this situation, it would be very misleading for a woman to generously take money out of her bag and give it to a man. Yu Bai tried his best to regard this as a kind act from a kind person, "Okay, 170,000."

    "Then bye, tonight. See you!" The two of them had arrived at the fork, and Huajiang Xiaye said goodbye in a good mood.

    Seeing that the woman was already three or four meters away, Yu Bai''s expression suddenly showed some hesitation.

    "Huajiang." He called to the other party.

    Huajiang Xiaye turned around in confusion.

    The woman smiled and asked, "What''s wrong?"

    "Yesterday."

    Yu Bai said in a calm and word-by-word tone.

    "Don''t you remember what happened last night?"

 Ch 8

    Last night?

    Huajiang Xiaye frowned and thought hard for a moment, then was suddenly startled.

    Have I already confessed my love...ah! Did I do something strange?

    Her brain was running rapidly, but speaking of it, she really couldn''t remember... First of all, excluding drinking, she probably wouldn''t have chosen to go so fast... It was almost ten o''clock, and the children were sleeping, and the adults It''s dark and windy, a man and a woman are alone in a room when they can''t sleep. Could it be a scenario? !

    Bang, Huajiang Xiaye held her head in both hands and rationally stopped to complete the fantasy in her mind. Thinking about it, it was also blurry when she got up early... couldn''t it? She is over thirty years old, and the so-called memory decline mentioned on TV is the natural enemy of this kind of woman extending its claws to her. Wouldn''t the next step be skin aging? Don''t.

    By the way, why did Yu Bai ask me this question? In fact, this is also very important, right? Is he interested in me?

    "..."

    Yu Bai watched helplessly as the woman in front of him went from smiling calmly to scratching her hair. Her expressions changed dramatically. She was confused, surprised, nervous, and then confused again...

    "I said, forget it if you can''t remember." He Kindly said.

    "No, no." Huajiang Xiaye waved her hands hurriedly. She forced herself out of her chaotic state of thoughts, took a breath, straightened her hair, and quickly returned to her appearance as a working woman.

    She said calmly: "If I remember correctly...there shouldn''t be anything special, right?"

    "After the convenience store, I gave the things I bought to you, Yu Bai. Yu Bai, you took the bag. The rest was normal. Everyone has gone back to their own houses."

    After hearing this, Yu Bai nodded thoughtfully.

    "It''s almost like this."

    Then why are you trying to scare me? Huajiang Xiaye was speechless, her rich psychological activities wasted in vain.

    "But, is there something wrong?" Relying on a woman''s intuition, Hua Jiang Xiaye thought that she would not ask questions without reason because she knew the other person.

    Yu Bai smiled and said, "It''s nothing."

    The sun rose in the sky between the buildings in the east, and the sunlight was already bright. The sun jumped out of the high-rise buildings and cast golden light on the streets. Both of them looked at the shadows crossing the ground.

    "As the manager of the apartment, if anything happens, especially in the rental life, please tell me." Huajiang Xiaye said seriously.

    Yu Bai was also bathed in a touch of warmth. He looked casually, his eyes melting with the sunlight, as if he was chasing the sky. "If you really want to ask, Landlord Huajiang..."

    The woman''s ears pricked up.

    "Actually, it''s nothing. Didn''t you buy me daily necessities? I''m very grateful, but there are also underwear in it. I bought a smaller size."

    Huajiang Xiaye was stunned after hearing this.Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original.

    "...Huh? This, this, this..." She said "this" three times, but couldn''t continue. The memory suddenly became clear here. When she was shopping at the convenience store, she hesitated for a long time due to various factors. No less, in the end I just let the male clerk look at it and bought it all.

    But I didn''t expect that there was a huge pit inside. Buy small? Heaven...

    Huajiang Xiaye''s face turned crimson, and she bowed vigorously and said, "I''m so sorry! I will definitely buy the right one next time!"

    Opposite me, the man nodded tentatively and said, "Oh, then you can buy it next time..."

    "Goodbye! I''m going to work first!"

    Something went wrong while busy, something went wrong while busy! Huajiang Xiaye turned around and left, her movements hurried, but fortunately her back was turned so she couldn''t see her expression, and she ran as fast as she could to escape.

    With a faint smile on his lips, Yu Bai ignored the passers-by and said loudly: "Next time, you can buy it..."

    "You''re going to be late, you''re going to be late!" The other party shouted in fright.

    The other party looked embarrassed and quickly disappeared at the entrance of the subway station. What was getting further and further away from him was Yu Bai''s smile, which slowly faded away.

    His expression turned cold.

    ...

    ...

    An hour later, Yu Bai arrived at Kasumigaseki in Chiyoda District.

    Chiyoda Ward is one of the 23 special wards in Tokyo. It is the political and economic center of Japan, including the Imperial Palace, the residence of the Emperor of Japan, the Japanese Parliament, the Supreme Court, the Yasukuni Shrine and most of the central provincial offices located in Otemachi, etc. Located in Chiyoda Ward. Among them, there is also a Guanting Street and the main building of the Metropolitan Police Department, which is Kasumigaseki.

    This is the main purpose of Yu Bai''s trip today.

    What he told the landlord of Huajiang about going out to apply for identification was not prevarication, but he had a real plan. Although with his ability, he could be fine even if he did nothing, he had to seek convenience when living here in the future.

    It''s just that he didn''t finish what he said. Applying for documents is only part of it. Then this "handling" needs to be flexible, as everyone understands.

    Yu Bai looked at the busy administrative buildings going in and out of a street, and said to himself: "Let''s get started."

    He found a department sign, confirmed it, and patted the shoulder of a man who had just walked out. "Excuse me, are you Chief Maori Lang?"

    "Huh?" The middle-aged man wore a work badge and carried documents. He looked at the person and said confused, "I am, what do you do for me?" "

    We can go have a cup of coffee. Want to chat?" Yu Bai said with a smile.

    "Coffee? The direction you pointed is the alley, right? Who are you? We don''t know each other, and I don''t remember who we made an agreement with. If you do this, I will have to deal with the security personnel..."

    Suddenly, Mao Lilang, who was speaking, stumbled, his eyes He fell into confusion, and then returned to normal, but the clarity was no longer in his pupils.

    "Okay, I remember, let''s go." Mao Lilang said in a completely different tone.

    Walking into the deserted alley, Yu Bai took away the work badge and said jokingly: "Suddenly it seems that your name fits the bill."

    Before the other party could speak, he snapped his fingers, and Mao Lilang fell into a deep sleep.

    When he returned to the office building, Mao Lilang, who entered with a sign, had already changed people.

    ...

    The "handling" process was much smoother than Yu Bai imagined.

    Relying on clones, transformations, and illusions, these little tricks for him, as well as the teleportation that may be used in some locations, Yu Bai can move smoothly in government agencies.

    Before taking action, Yu Bai had an attitude of not being contemptuous and not relaxing, and also made several preparations to prevent accidents, but it was obvious that he still underestimated the role that extraordinary power could play in the world. It''s not that modern technology is incompetent, but that monitoring door locks or computer passwords is all about ordinary people. In the face of the ninja''s skill of hiding and disguising, he can achieve the effect of seemingly doing whatever he wants, without calculation or intention.

    Yu Bai went in and out of various departments, constantly changing people, things, and hypnotizing... By cheating, the civil servants processed his "application" very efficiently. In addition, in addition to the functions of the political center in Chiyoda District, many famous companies also The headquarters is also located in this area, so he can eliminate them all in one go.

    A few hours later, Yu Bai took care of the aftermath and returned to the street. He had a brand new personal number card, driver''s license, passport, insurance... and other documents in his pocket. The procedures were legal and there were no flaws. From this moment on , he is completely no different from the locals.

    "Then the next step is to investigate."

 Ch 9

    Metropolitan Police Department, a surveillance room.

    Yu Bai was leaning on the swivel chair, and the scene from Setagaya District last night was playing on the screen.

    The police officer on duty was lying on the table next to him, snoring loudly as if he couldn''t wake up. He turned a blind eye to the intruder who was so close. This is a branch room. There are many surveillance cameras in Tokyo. The total number of cameras is obviously not enough to be accommodated in one room. Yu Bai did not go to the main surveillance room of the headquarters. Firstly, it is difficult to operate with too many people and there are risks; secondly, he thought The picture you want to adjust does not require such a high level.

    There were dozens of monitors hanging on the wall directly opposite. Yu Bai pressed the computer in front of him twice. As he adjusted, a familiar scene appeared on the screen. A 24-hour convenience store was open, and people were waiting for the traffic lights. He also saw himself and his landlady, standing on either side of the intersection.

    The two greeted each other, and when the light turned green, the landlady handed him the bag, exchanged a few words, and then separated in front of the apartment door. This is almost exactly the same as what the other party said when he asked Hua Jiang Xia Ye in the morning.

    Yu Bai played it back again without saying anything.

    An unsurprising scene, only he knew what was wrong.

    After slow playback for the third time, he also didn''t find the clues he wanted, so he stopped worrying about it.

    Drag the mouse to shrink the time to 8 o''clock to 10 o''clock in the evening. The location is various streets, intersections, and corners in Setagaya Nimemachi. The monitor on the wall starts to play back all the scenes from last night.

    Yu Bai didn''t intend to miss a corner. He browsed with far more energy than ordinary people, and his main attention was focused on the intersection near the apartment on the computer. Unfortunately, he failed to gain anything until the end.

    Reluctantly turning off the fast-forward screen and returning the monitoring room to its original state, Yu Bai rubbed his temples tiredly. Taking care of dozens of objects at the same time was very taxing on him.

    One of his ideas was to rely on surveillance to review the events of that night. This was also the most direct method on the surface, but the result obviously failed.

    Yu Bai had no special emotions, and he would not find it easy from the beginning. Seeing the local reaction and people going about their normal lives, it''s like peeking through a tube, revealing the danger.

    He left the monitoring room and continued the investigation.

    What happened at that intersection last night?

    What is he investigating?

    Yu Bai, who was walking among the bustling civil servants and office workers, couldn''t answer. Thinking back to what he saw at that time, even he felt shuddering.

    Then he went to more other government departments, as well as some civil organizations, such as newspapers. He wants to collect evidence from all aspects of society. The "evidence" here comes in various forms, from paper documents to film and television materials. Yu Bai can transform into anyone or induce others to come into contact with what he wants to know or to What you want to hear.

    For example, if the price of pork will rise, Yu Bai does not need to go through the last link of information flow such as the wet market. He can just ask the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries directly.

    His investigation was so boring and tedious. The only interesting thing in the monotonous process was when he walked into a file room and accidentally bumped into two bold civil servants doing something unsightly. In desperation, he They had no choice but to cut each other unconscious and take the money in their wallets among the clothes and items thrown on the floor as hush money. They must have made such a mistake, and they would be too guilty to mention it to outsiders.

    At the same time, according to this line of thinking, the investigation is very simple. Indeed, he was even passing by a certain provincial conference room and heard the staff talking about the reception of the Prime Minister''s meeting later. He couldn''t help but have an idea. After a while, a group of people in suits and ties appeared. When the senior officials arrived in a hurry, and then came out in a hurry, he had already blended in with them, stood nearest the old man, and followed them for half a day.

    He eavesdropped on everyone''s corner, but still found nothing to corroborate.Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author.

    As the sun set, Yu Bai took off his suit, threw some miscellaneous disguises into the trash can, and returned to the street.

    "There''s no sign at all."

    He said, but there was no relieved expression on his face.

    A day''s investigation, through all aspects of society, eliminates all possibilities, and then only one remains.

    That means there is no answer.

    After getting rid of a few shadow clones that were still working hard somewhere, Yu Bai stretched out.

    "Go back."

    Staring at the dim sunset, Yu Bai was pushed by the crowd of people after work and stepped into the crowded subway and whizzed away.

    ...

    The landlord of Huajiang said that her property was passed down from her grandfather''s generation and had a long history. Yu Bai came to the ground and watched the surrounding scenery gradually change from the atmosphere of the CBD to the simplicity of the urban-rural fringe. What he wanted to say was the truth.

    Judging from this, her ancestors are quite wealthy, and her family must have a long history. She just doesn''t know why this well-established family has not completed capital accumulation in her hands, but is working happily.

    It is really an era of peace and quiet in Heilongjiang. Now it is called Reiwa. I look forward to it.

    When Yu Bai returned to the apartment, he found that Huajiang Xiaye had already gotten off work and was cleaning the yard.

    "Good afternoon."

    The other person, who is both the owner and the apartment manager, changed into home clothes and put away the broom when he saw him.

    "Okay." Yu Bai replied, "Landlord, do you also do the usual cleaning?"

    Huajiang Xiaye wiped away the sweat and said with a smile: "How come, I hire someone to take care of it regularly, but occasionally I see it and I do it easily. Once the work is done, some kind-hearted residents will also help. "

    Oh, it turns out that I am free.

    Just like in the past, landlords would go to the fields for a walk when they had nothing to do. From time to time, they would have to make a few strong words. Even if the instructions were not in line with objective reality, no one could say anything.

    Yu Bai nodded to express his understanding and was about to go back to the house. He noticed that Huajiang Xiaye looked wrong. He was holding the broom with both hands, trying to hold himself on the ground, as if he was exhausted, and his eyes frequently flicked towards him.

    Yu Bai tasted the product, maybe because she lacked physical exercise and had time to teach her radio gymnastics, or...

    "Landlord Huajiang, I can''t pay back the money for the time being." Yu Bai silently adjusted his position so that it would be inconvenient for the other party to hold the broom. Handed it to him, "Please be accommodating for a few more days."

    "Oh... the money matter is not urgent." Huajiang Xiaye said blankly, "You..."

    Yu Bai took the lead to withdraw through the gate. At this moment, a A man came out of the laundry room upstairs and almost bumped into him.

    "Sorry." A soft female voice said quickly.

    "No, you go through first." Yu Bai said nonchalantly, but after seeing the face of the visitor clearly, he paused.

    He felt a certain impression of the cool and cold eyebrows and the cute oval face of a baby. His eyes turned to the girl''s hair, which was a highly recognizable twin ponytail. Now she was easy to recognize.

    It''s the girl who collected clothes on the fourth floor yesterday.

    Subconsciously, he looked into the washbasin she was holding. Well, the clothes had some distinctive features. It was her.

    "Ah!" The other party also recognized him and looked surprised. However, the next moment, he noticed Yu Bai''s gaze and hurriedly protected him with his arms.

    Yu Bai felt that it was necessary to clear up some misunderstandings. As the saying goes, don¡¯t look at anything inappropriate, don¡¯t treat anything inappropriate...

    Unexpectedly, the girl lowered her head, without saying a word, as if she was charging past him with her head covered.

    "..." Yu Bai looked at the girl''s back as she hurried up the stairs, feeling speechless. Everyone can die if you say a friendly word.

    "What, you two know each other?" Huajiang Xiaye came up from behind and said.

    "I don''t know." Yu Bai denied, "But we met yesterday, do you know him?"

    "Of course, I can recognize every resident''s face," Huajiang Xiaye said, "Have you underestimated me? " His expression said, "Her name is Sato Tassel. She seems to have come to Tokyo to study in high school. She is still a child studying in other places. It is quite hard. She is very kind-hearted. I just told you that she is one of the residents who occasionally helps with labor... From now on, when everyone lives in the same apartment, you will also meet other people."

    "Okay." Yu Bai silently wrote it down.

    "Is there something going on between you two?" Huajiang Xiaye asked pretending to be casual.

    "Nothing."

    Seeing that Huajiang Xiaye was about to take out the broom again, Yu Bai showed his personal number card and asked the other party to help him complete the renting procedures. This successfully attracted the other party''s attention. Huajiang Xiaye took out the contract that had been prepared, and the two Everyone signed it, so the contract officially came into effect, and Yu Bai also settled in this old apartment.

    Saying that landlord, thank you for your hard work in cleaning slowly, Yu Bai returned to the house.

    After closing the door, he sat on the tatami in the room, listening to the landlady''s somewhat annoyed mutterings, and then left. The first floor and the front yard became quiet, and soon became chaotic with new sounds. Tenants who came back one after another climbed on the wall. The kitten passing by, the footsteps on the corridor, the sound of clothes rubbing against plastic bags...

    He first thought about what he had gained today and whether he had missed anything. After getting the same result, he relaxed and listened quietly and felt.

    For dinner, he ate some rice balls he bought on the road, and then continued to close his eyes and listen to everything outside the house, like an old monk meditating. The disturbances in the apartment flow through the senses like a river.

    He listened, felt, slowly adjusted his breathing, and unknowingly merged into the smoke and smoke of this world.

    He is also waiting.

    The sky outside the window gradually darkened.

    There was no light on, so the room was very dim. The street lights and night light reflected by the curtains fell on the tatami, as if they were blessed with a hazy filter.

    At nine o''clock in the evening, Yu Bai quietly opened his eyes and pulled out a knife from the darkness.

 Ch 10

    The knife was slowly drawn out. The blade appeared bit by bit in the darkness, as if the sunlight at dawn shone on the snow-covered ground bit by bit. The light from the knife slowly bloomed, causing the knife to seem to be drawn out of thin air.

    It was indeed pulled out of thin air.

    The small ninja tool bag cannot accommodate this one-meter-long white blade. Both the inner and outer surfaces are engraved with space magic techniques. This means that not only can the bag be huge, but the ninja tool bag can also hold it. Around it, subspace is also hidden and attached.

    Yu Bai gently stroked it with his fingers, holding back the sharp Qinghong knife that seemed to be about to shoot out of the air. This is a Tang sword with a narrow and straight blade, a small tango, a long handle, and is white and flawless. When not swinging, ignore the tail, and it looks like a pool of clear water, so he named it Qinghong.

    After decades of fighting life and death, he picked up weapons at the age of three and went to the battlefield at the age of six. He has used countless weapons, but few of them survived until the end.

    This is one of them.

    The knife he used to kill people all the time.

    Yu Bai looked at the watch on his left hand. He just bought it today with the hush money he got by chance. The money was not small, and it also helped some other purposes. Nine-thirty, which is almost the same time as yesterday.

    It was almost there. The sky was completely dark with no stars or moon. In the extremely dark room, only Yu Bai''s eyes and Qihihong in his hand were slightly reflecting the light. He got up and prepared to go out. He chose to go out at this time, which was almost the same as yesterday. What''s interesting is that this time he brought a ninja bag.

    Walking to the door, he flicked his left hand in the air behind his waist, took out the black and red-striped scabbard from the air, put the long knife into the sheath with a clang, and opened the door. Yu Bai stepped into the light and walked quietly in the corridor, his whole aura restrained and silent.

    He carried the knife and went straight up the stairs. He didn''t meet any other residents on the way, and soon reached the top floor of the fourth floor where Huajiang Xiaye lived.

    According to what was mentioned in the previous chat, because of her status as the apartment manager, the other party had said that if there was any problem, come to her at 401.

    The first thing I saw when I turned the corner was Yu Bai knocking on the door.

    No one responded, so he waited patiently for a moment and knocked a second time.

    "..."

    No one is here? Yu Bai frowned. It would be troublesome to find someone at this time.

    He moved his ankles, and then looked at the flimsy door locks, flimsy door bolts, and flimsy door panels... He moved his wrists, and when he was thinking about adding another sum to his debt, what came to his mind? .This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.

    Yu Bai walked a few steps into the corridor, looking down the balcony from time to time, adjusting his position according to memory, and came to another rental house.

    "This should be it, right? That female student named Sato Liusu..." This is the end of the corridor, and beyond is the fire escape. Looking at the house number 408, Yu Bai thought.

    Knocked on the door and got a quick response this time.

    "Who is it?"

    The person in the room stopped at the door and asked cautiously without opening the door.

    Yu Bai coughed lightly and said, "My name is Yu Bai. I''m a new resident who just moved in on the first floor."

    "Oh, Mr. from the utility room on the first floor." The other person said suddenly, probably seeing it through the peephole.

    "Miscellaneous things..." Yu Bai didn''t want to care about it, "Hello, I would like to ask if you know where the landlord is?"

    "Sister Xia Ye?" When Sato Liusu heard this name, she seemed to let down a lot of vigilance. At least she heard that Finally, she opened the door, although it was only half open, and poked her head out, revealing a fresh and fresh face, "Isn''t she here? Normally she should be in the house now."

    "Well... maybe she went to pay the electric bill."

    Yu Bai: "It''s so late to pay the electricity bill?"

    "It''s possible. After all, Sister Xia Ye is alone. She has to handle everything. It''s very hard when she''s busy." Sato Liusu and the landlady looked very understanding. , said familiarly.

    "Okay, then I understand." Yu Bai asked about the property address for paying electricity bills, etc., thanked him, and turned to leave.

    "Hey."

    In his eyes, the little girl named Sato Liusu stopped him, "Is that a sword in your hand? A knife? Do you usually practice kendo?"

    Yu Bai waved his hand, not very interested.

    He returned the same way and walked out of the apartment door. He suddenly thought that it was a good opportunity to resolve the "laundry misunderstanding" with the other party, but everyone was out, forget it... When he walked through the path and came to the road, he didn''t know if it was fate. Sure enough, it was still the same convenience store, still the same intersection, and Yu Bai saw Huajiang Xiaye.

    The other person had his hands in his pockets and seemed to have finished his work. He was standing on the opposite side waiting for the traffic light.

    This scene made Yu Bai stunned for a moment.

    When the woman saw him, her eyes that were tired after a long day''s work became brighter and she waved to him.

    Yu Bai did not respond. He was thinking about what happened last night.

    "What are you thinking? You don''t pay attention to anyone when you say hello."

    Huajiang Xiaye trotted over and said with a half-complaining smile. The wind lifted the ends of her hair, and she pressed it down gently.

    The light was green at this time, and the countdown to the intersection had just begun. The wind whistled across the street, and the pedestrians in twos and threes suddenly stopped moving.

    After the wind blew, the ends of her hair fell down, and Huajiang Xiaye''s expression did not change at all.

    59, 58, 57...

    Yu Bai realized something was wrong.

    In front of the green light, no one takes a step, pedestrians, waiting people, and dozens of people on the entire street at night have all turned into puppets.

    50, 49.48...

    Yu Bai looked at Huajiang Xiaye, trying to find evidence from the other person''s expression that this was a prank.

    However, he saw that the light in the woman''s eyes seemed to be locked, frozen in that beautiful second. Her hands, feet, skin, and every detail remained untouched. No one moved. This is not a joke, this is not a group flash mob.

    Time paused? Apparently not. He could feel the matter around him flowing smoothly.

    Then why...

    After the long countdown of the green light, the red light turned on.

    The long street was filled with blinding red light.

    Pfft,

    tsk.

    A huge animal arthropod pierced out from the center of Huajiang Xiaye''s eyebrows, and blood spattered on his face.

    ¡ª¡ªAt that moment, Yu Bai''s smile froze.

    ...

    Some unknown creature, life form, object, something sharp pierced the leaves of Huajiang Xia.

    This is what he saw last night.

    On the evening of March 20th, about a day later, Yu Bai stood at this intersection again. Before long, he saw the same strange and absurd Shi Zhi.

    The street lights are flashing green and no one is passing. He knew that in a minute, the long street would be exposed to dazzling red light. Yu Bai was sure that the visible light in the sky had not changed at all. It was just the light from the red traffic light.

    However, when the people around him stand still, the red light will expand like a demon, coming from the abyss of hell.

    Before the one-minute countdown ended, Yu Bai helped Huajiang Xiaye straighten her hair that she had not had time to do.

    Looking down at the watch, it''s ten minutes to four.

    "Is there no pattern..."

    A kitten secretly tried to take away a grilled sausage from a convenience store. Yu Bai glanced at it. The cat turned its head to meet the gaze with its natural instinct, and its hair stood on end in fright. Scream.

    "Meow!"

    This is a world where only humans are suspended.
