If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 124 Siblings, Siblings

Ryoichi’s house in Shinjuku is a rental house, no different from the place where ordinary working-class office workers live. Seeing the walls of the four-story old building whose chalk flakes are beginning to peel off, Lin Nian and Mandy believed Ryoichi’s words The fact that it's a poor dog.

"Didn't you say that your monthly salary is 30 million yen? Why don't you rent a better place to live?" Mandy asked behind Ryoichi who took out the keys in the stairwell.

"What's the use of living well? If you don't settle down every day, sometimes you have to stay outside for several days for a troublesome task. Even staying in a five-star hotel is just a waste of money." Ryoichi slapped him aside with a cigarette in his mouth. The corridor was lit up on the sensor light.

"This kind of frugal spirit is very good. It is better to save the money to buy a house later." Lin Nian gave a thumbs up.

"Buy what you see and want, and give money when you go to a custom shop to chat with a wine girl, so I don't have any savings, and the reason why I don't starve to death now is that the convenience of the task allows me to go to various places to eat Bawang meals. "Ryoichi said.

Lin Nian silently withdrew his praise.

Walking to the corridor, there is a whole row of residents' doors. Black garbage bags are piled up at the door. Many garbage bags were accidentally kicked by passers-by and left unattended. This is enough to show that this dormitory What is the condition of the building.

Liangyi walked to the door of No. 204, raised his hand, put out the cigarette on the wall, took out the key, and opened the door. Lin Nian and Mandy both leaned on the railing at the back and looked down at the street. Is this really a tourist fraud? Can I complain to my family afterwards and ask for mental damages?

The door was opened, the indoor lights shone on the corridor, and there were already people in the room.

Lin Nian, who saw the light behind the door and the figure running from the railing, subconsciously grasped the handle of the knife in his cuff, but Mandy hugged his arm fiercely and shouted: "Junior brother, calm down! Junior brother, calm down! Don't worry about it!" I was scared to chop off people's heads."

"ただいま (I'm back)."

"おかえり (Welcome back)."

Ryoichi walked into the entrance to take off his shoes, and a young girl trotted over in slippers to help him take off his windbreaker. Lin Nian, who was holding a knife outside the door, raised his eyebrows to his hairline, watching this extraordinarily 'warm' scene.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, this is Chihiro, and I'm temporarily living with me now." Liang explained with a blank look at Lin Nian.

"I have a guest today. My name is Ayodai Chihiro. Thank you for taking care of Ryoichi. Please give me your advice." The young girl called Chihiro was still wearing an apron, wiped her hands behind her back and turned towards the person outside the door cautiously. Lin Nian and the two bowed.

Lin Nian and Mandy nodded as a greeting. After entering the entrance, the former gave Liang Yi a strange look: "Your girlfriend?"

"No." Ryoichi put on his slippers and stepped on the wooden floor.

"Your relative?" Lin Nian asked after thinking about it.

"No." Ryoichi glanced back at him: "I picked up Chihiro from the street, and she lives with me temporarily."

Lin Nian and Mandy's expressions became even more strange, and the word "pick up" was too subtle.

"There is no other story. I met Chihiro when I was working half a year ago. She had no place to live. I just didn't go home often and the house was empty, so we just lived together." Ryoichi looked in the shoe cabinet. Two pairs of disposable slippers were opened in front of Lin Nian and the others.

"It's really picked up. Now you Japanese are not limited to catching Pokémon in the wild?" Mandy felt horrified by this set of rhetoric.

"In recent years, this kind of 'God treats girls' is quite common, right?" Ryoichi led the two of them to the living room: "It's a very common phenomenon in Shinjuku Ikebukuro, being resigned and temporarily unable to find a job, and finding that there is not enough money after working in a convenience store Many, these girls who quarrel with their families and run away from home will gather together and wait for someone to take them back to stay for a night, or for a long time."

"Has Japan become so magical now?" Lin Nian felt a little disillusioned. He remembered that he laughed at one of his classmates surnamed Lu, saying that he saw in the anime sitting in the corner of a convenience store in the rain and eating expired food. Bread, there are no unfortunate girls waiting to be adopted like stray cats, but now it seems that they have been severely slapped in the face.

As a woman, Mandy's reaction was not small, but she was afraid of being heard by the girl humming and cooking in the kitchen and deliberately lowered her voice: "Is this deliberate abduction? This must be deliberate abduction?"

"Abduction needs to be based on coaxing, lies, and unrealistic promises. My relationship with her is not that complicated." Ryoichi said after hearing Mandy's whisper.

"Then does she know that you are from the same family?" Lin Nian asked.

"I don't know, the relationship between me and him is that I provide accommodation and she takes care of the housework. She doesn't need to know so much about my work." Liang said expressionlessly.

"Is it really as simple as housework?" Lin Nian and Mandy cast doubtful glances together.

"It's that simple, how can it be complicated?" Ryoichi glanced at the two of them, and the latter scratched their brows in unison to avoid the righteous gaze.

Cannibals have soft mouths and short hands, so if you live in someone else's house, you can stop meddling in so many nosy things.

"Didn't you get full from the oden before? Have some more?" Ryoichi walked to the cupboard in the living room connected to the kitchen and put two more bowls and chopsticks on the table.

The question turned to eating and drinking. Lin Nian and Mandy gave up the righteous questioning, and ran to wash their hands and face honestly. Both Mandy and Lin Nian suspected that they still had dark spots on their faces.

After finishing the preparations and sitting back at the dining table, the four of them each occupied a side, and the atmosphere was somewhat silent.

Chihiro Ayoshi, who took off her apron, immediately changed from a housewife to an iconic student. Both Lin Nian and Mandy watched her from the corner of her eye. She was estimated to be no more than 17 years old, college student?No. It should still be a JK (female high school student). Picking up a minor and coming back to be a housewife is really enviable and evil!

"It feels like you're looking at me anyway." Chihiro Aodai bit her chopsticks and looked at Ryoichi in embarrassment.

"Just curious, these two are friends at work, foreign friends from abroad, one is from China, the other is from." Ryoichi looked at Mandy.

"Spain, but grew up in the United States as long as I can remember." Mandy smiled and half-raised her hand to greet Chihiro.

"It looks like Ryoichi-san works for a big company." Chihiro Aodai looked at Ryoichi as if he had discovered something serious.

"It's just a general company. They haven't booked a hotel tonight, so they will stay at my house temporarily." Ryoichi said.

"Really? Let's sleep on the sofa with Brother Ryoichi tonight!" Chihiro Aodai said
"Yes." Liang nodded.

"No, it's okay, we're bothering you, we should sleep on the sofa." Mandy and He looked back at the sofa in the living room and suddenly stopped talking, because it really didn't look like it could hold two people side by side. If she and Lin Nian wanted to sleep there, they would definitely have to hug each other.

"Sleeping on the sofa? I don't care." Lin Nian, who was eating with his head down, said subconsciously before turning his head.

"I think I mean something." Mandy withdrew her preface about sleeping on the sofa with a sad face, stealing from her junior while she was out on a mission, would she be slaughtered by Lin Xian after returning to the academy?
"Are you still in school at your age?" Lin Nian asked casually while looking at Chihiro Aodai with a chopstick in his hands.

"I'm in the third year of high school, and I'm studying at a nearby women's college." Chihiro Aodai also quietly looked at Lin Nian: "What's the name of this guest? Why do you feel that the accent has an Osaka accent?"

"My surname is Lin, and I'm not too clear about the accent. When I was taught by others, I was taught like this. It is said that this kind of Japanese is more authentic."

"Mr. Lin, the Osaka dialect does have more local characteristics in Osaka, but it seems a bit strange to say the Osaka dialect here in Tokyo." Chihiro Aoyo explained with a smile.

"Understood." Lin Nian wrote Finger in his heart expressionlessly while eating, and Finger, who was far away from the ocean, sneezed and drew his sword and looked around in a daze.

"Mr. Lin is amazing to work in a big company at this age." Chihiro Ayodai also began to observe Lin Nian carefully, and found that this boy was actually about the same age as himself, and might even be younger than him. Identity emerges at home.

"It's nothing difficult, just study hard. After you graduate and go to a good university, you will probably be able to be self-sufficient and rent a house." Lin Nian bowed his head and planed.

"Yeah, it's really embarrassing to stay in Brother Liangyi's house all the time. Brother Liangyi often works outside and doesn't go home. I can't help. I hope that I can repay Brother Liangyi after earning money after working. "Chihiro Aodai said with a low smile.

Now Lin Nian has nothing to say, the girl is willing to take care of the housework and repay you in the future, so how advanced is the abduction technique needed to abduct such a treasure home?
"Anyway, I'm alone now. With Brother Ryoichi here, it's like having a family again." Chihiro Aodai said with a smile again.

Lin Nian, who was eating, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and glanced at Chihiro Aoyo, but didn't say a word after that.

The meal was finished in a hurry and silently. Qianxun took the initiative to clean up the dishes, but Lin Nian couldn't get in if he wanted to help, but Mandy squeezed in to help with the affinity of the same sex, so he could only be honest. He sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV.

There was a funny variety show at [-] o'clock on the TV. Ryoichi also sat aside and picked up a plate with candies on the table and handed it over. Lin Nian grabbed a candy at random and slowly peeled off the candy wrapper and asked, "Is she an orphan?"

"Yes." Ryoichi also peeled off a piece of candy and chewed it in his mouth.

"Isn't she some kind of god who treats girls from the orphanage?"

"It doesn't count." Ryoichi said, "I am responsible for her affairs."

Lin Nian paused for a moment while peeling off the candy paper, and cast a puzzled look on his face.

"There was a mission before. It was said that there were dangerous mixed races who were robbing in Shinjuku. They targeted the big boss from the nightclub. They almost died several times. Team leader Yilong asked me to see what happened." Ryoichi Opened a cold beer: "It turned out to be nothing new, I found the half-breed, he attacked me and I shot him in the heart."

"What does this have to do with her?" Lin Nian glanced at Chihiro Aoyo who was busy in the kitchen.

"She is the daughter of that dangerous mixed race." Ryoichi took a sip of wine: "Her mother died of dystocia, and there were no other relatives in the family who were still in the first year of high school when the incident happened. I killed his father and she also There was nowhere to go back, so I just picked her up."

Lin Nian paused for a moment, then frowned unobtrusively: "You picked up a trouble."

"How to say?" Ryoichi's expression remained unchanged.

"Is there a chance that the offspring of a mixed race will also be a mixed race?" Lin Nian asked.

"She doesn't count." Ryoichi said: "I took it to my family for inspection, even some dragon blood is very thin, and it belongs to the kind that has no chance to awaken in a lifetime."

"So all your salary is spent here." Lin Nian smiled.

"It doesn't cost much." Ryoichi couldn't bear the exaggerated laughter of comedians on the TV and pressed the remote control to change channels.

"Actually, I thought you were in that kind of relationship at first." Lin Nian said shyly.

"What's the matter. You mean flesh and blood?" Ryoichi said, "If you want breasts or butt, why don't I go whoring?"

This topic is out of line, Lin Nian turned his head away and changed the subject: "Does the family not care about orphans like this?"

"Qianxun's grades in school are considered to be the third in the whole grade. She shouldn't be delayed by some mixed-race or underworld incidents. The life of a person like her should be smooth sailing. If she is handled according to the rules and regulations of her family, she has a high probability You will be sent to an orphanage with multiple pensions, and you should know that a child should not stay in that kind of place." Ryoichi said.

Lin Nian froze for a moment, looked at Liang for a while, and then said, "You too?"

Liang nodded: "People like us all have labels on them, and you are no exception."

"How old are you?"

"Since childhood."

"It's the same with me." For no reason, Lin Nian felt that the boy beside him who had always been vicious was much kinder.

"Did you take him in out of guilt?"

"It's my job to deal with dangerous hybrids. I can't say I feel guilty. Would you feel guilty about the hybrid you killed this morning and the shooter tonight?" Ryoichi asked rhetorically.

"No." Lin Nian said, "One is no longer human, and the other wants to deprive people of their lives. Why do I feel guilty?"

"Me too." Ryoichi said.

"Then why do you have to take on this responsibility?" Lin Nian asked: "I came out of the orphanage with my sister. I know that it was not easy for her to take care of me, and you are likely to be the same."

"Is there any reason for this kind of thing?" Ryoichi lay on the sofa and watched TV: "Help if you can."

Lin Nian nodded after a pause: "You are the same as my sister. When I asked her why she took care of me so much, she also said that you are pitiful, so she can help if she wants to."

"You have a good sister." Liang raised the beer in one fell swoop.

"You are considered a good brother?"

Go out and domineering, eat nightclub's overlord meal and drink free champagne, just because you don't eat at home, you can save a pair of bowls and chopsticks and save money. All the saved wages will be paid to the girls at home to pay tuition and miscellaneous fees. Who knows that a gangster will start How could the ruthless boy be so gentle?
For no reason, Lin Nian remembered the scene when they entered the door before, when he used to go home, his elder sister always cooked the meal and said "I'm back"?They were surprisingly alike.

He smiled for no reason and stuffed the candy in his mouth.

In the kitchen, Chihiro Aoyo who was washing the dishes suddenly whispered "Ah", and Mandy next to her subconsciously asked in English: "whats_wrong?"

"Someone from Ryoichi's company sent a metal box saying it was a gift, and asked me to open the box and hand over the contents to him when he came back. I almost forgot." Chihiro Aodai stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice.

Mandy froze for a moment, shrugged her shoulders and turned her head to continue washing the dishes. Because of the language barrier, Chihiro could understand her simple English, but she couldn't understand the girl muttering in Japanese. What to say, I can only watch the girl trot into the room not far away with a smile.
