I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

Chapter 760: Time is a butcher knife

Genius to remember the address of this site in one second: []The fastest update! No ads! "This mother tree, Dahongpao, has to follow the rules of the tea ceremony of the Dragon Country... Otherwise, it will be boiled bitterly, and the good things will be wasted in vain..."

A small cup of red and clear tea soup was pushed by Tokimoto Ichiro in front of Araki Sosuke: "Tasting tea means enlightenment, and those who approach this tea are closer to Zen nature. Entering the realm of non-self with tangible tea, tranquility is one, and cultivation has become a bond. ."

"No matter how delicious it is, it's just a few leaves soaked in water. Is it necessary to make it so complicated..."

As soon as Araki Sousuke raised his head, the hot and slightly bitter tea soup flowed down his throat, a rich aroma erupted in his stomach, and bloomed between his mouth and nose along with the sweetness of the tongue.

"Have the tea, can you say something about Uncle Qingren... Did you know it through a background check?"

Inadvertently savoring the taste of "the king of tea" in his mouth, Araki Sousuke's drunken eyes looked straight at Tokimoto Ichiro who was drinking tea with his eyes closed.

For every registered spirit slayer, the association conducts a thorough background check through the Metropolitan Police Department.

Not to mention the fact that Sosuke Araki grew up in the "Little Daisy Welfare Institute", I am afraid that all his records from compulsory education to university records, police counseling records, employment experience, social security tax payment records, rental records and other files have been carefully reviewed. reviewed again.

And among the people he knew, there was only one who could be called "Monarch Moon Shadow" and who also had his own cemetery.

The sun-like smile was hidden under the thick frame, and behind the gentleness was an old-fashioned stubborn and stubborn man who was uncomfortable without a book in his hand...

The man who single-handedly propped up the "Little Daisy Orphanage" that was about to close down, provided the orphans with a final shelter, and taught them to step into society without being humble or arrogant...

In the hearts of Sosuke Araki, Yukio Higashino, Ryoma and other orphans, the only man who can associate with the word "father"...

The former director of the Little Daisy Welfare Institute, Yueyingqingren.

"It was indeed through your background investigation report that I learned of the existence of the Little Daisy Welfare Institute and the fact that Moon Shadow-Jun has been staying there all these years..."

"Two or three brews taste the best, don't waste it."

Filling the teacup for himself and Sousuke Araki, Tokimoto Ichiro stood up from the bookshelf behind him, took out a book with a somewhat worn cover, and put it on the table.

"This... this book, I seem to have seen it on Uncle Qing's bookshelf..."

Picking up this book, Araki Sosuke pressed his face up to read the words word by word, despite the residual alcoholism.

"New Hundred Stories", author, Yueying Qingren.

"Wait, I didn't notice before, he is the author? Why, you also have this book?"

He opened the title page and saw neatly written a line of fine print on it: "This life is as short as dew, when walking on hell, staring at the flowers... I would like to present this book to this mountain person."

Looking at the ink-yellow, incomparably familiar handwriting, Sousuke Araki was stunned for a while.

"Uncle Qingren's, autograph? Shibenshanren, is it you? In the end..."

In the former "Little Daisy Welfare Home", whether it was the notices hung on the blackboard in the hospital, the handwritten records of each child's file, and the "parting words" for them when they reached the age of 18, they were all filled with Qingren. The dean's handwriting is as graceful as a woman's.

"Yueyingqingren, Ph.D. in Folklore at Dongda University, special advisor to the royal family... More than 20 years ago, Yueyingjun and I met because we were entrusted to handle a certain case for the royal family..."

"Later, when I started the association, he was a consultant and one of the founding members."

"What, what, Uncle Qingren is actually an association..."

As Tokimoto Ichiro whispered, a photo fell from the gap between the pages of the book.

"Wait, is this?"

Sousuke Araki, whose face was dull, unconsciously reached out and pinched it.

"As the saying goes, time is a knife that kills pigs and turns grapes purple... ahem, remember that when this group photo was taken, he had just graduated with a doctorate in folklore at Dongda University and was preparing to publish his first book."

Looking at the faded color photo, Ichiro Tokimoto showed a nostalgic smile on his wrinkled face.

Beneath the red-and-white Tokyo Tower, two smiling men stand side by side on the snow-covered grass.

"I had just returned from the Dragon Kingdom a few years ago. After solving a few difficult cases, I was hired by the royal family as a religious advisor."

In a black student uniform, red scarf and black glasses with a sense of the times, the young but handsome Yueying Qingren...

"Remember that day, he kept showing off, intentionally or unintentionally, that scarf knitted by his fiancée... Remember it's called, Sato?"

And Ichiro Tokimoto, who wears a straight collar, has black hair and beard, and has a more sturdy body and face than he is now.

"Uncle Qingren, is he a Ph.D. graduate from Dongda University, or a founding member of the association... So, he is also a spirit remover?"

"Wow, Uncle Qingren's appearance when he was young is about twenty times more handsome than that of Tachibana Piaoxue's little white face, right? ! There is also old man Shiben, but the feeling of black hair is so different..."

Suddenly learning about the completely different Moon Shadow Haruen from his impression, countless question marks popped up in Sosuke Araki's mind: "However, why would a young elite like him go to the Daisy Welfare Institute, which is about to close down? Dean, how about living in obscurity for the rest of your life?"

More than 20 years ago, in an era when mobile phones were just beginning to become popular, the household registration system was not perfect, and there were many people with the same name and surname, it was really not a thing for a person to live in isolation in a private orphanage in a remote location. difficult thing.

His keen intuition told Sousuke Araki that there must be a very important reason behind Uncle Qingren's actions!

"Yueyingjun~lightnovelpub.net~ Although he has extremely rich folk knowledge and ancient text recognition ability, he is just an ordinary person without inspiration."

"And the reason for his disappearance is also one of the things I have been investigating all these years..."

After brewing a pot of tea again, Tokimoto Ichiro explained the whole story with some emotion.

"Back then, as a regular advisor to the royal family, Jun Yueying participated in a highly confidential investigation as a folklore scholar."

"Before leaving, he also came to me and asked me for a lot of talisman papers that ordinary people can barely use for self-defense, and by the way, he mentioned the good news of his wife's pregnancy... But he didn't expect that a goodbye would become a goodbye forever."

"After that day, he disappeared as if he disappeared from the world, and even his fiancee Sato never received any news..."

"I have also inquired about the royal family and people who are acquainted with Yin and Yang Liao, but those big people are very secretive about this matter and don't mention a word."

It seems that because he held it too hard, several cracks appeared on the expensive tea cup in Tokimoto Ichiro's hand.
