Chapter 3352 Decision



Afterwards, Fang Zheng drove to Sayu's house, which was a white single-family house that looked larger than most people's houses. It was obvious that Sayu was a child from a wealthy family.

Of course, being a child from a wealthy family doesn't mean there aren't a lot of things to worry about. When Sayu arrived at the door of her home, she looked at the door in front of her and showed a rare bit of nervousness and uneasiness.

However, at this moment, suddenly, a voice was heard.

"Sayu! It's Sayu!"

"Why?"

Hearing this voice, Sayu was stunned for a moment. She turned her head and saw a young man rushing out of the house panting. He ran to Sayu and looked at her anxiously.

"You're finally back? What happened? I just received a call from the school saying that you were causing trouble there..."

"I'm sorry to have made you worry, brother."

Facing her brother, Sayu's expression softened somewhat, but she still looked firmly at the young man in front of her.

"I came back this time just to make a decision with my mother."

"decision……"

"I know what I want to do, brother. I want to avenge Yuiko. I want to put an end to my previous life and start over. I am no longer the person I used to be. I used to think that as long as I was humble and didn't resist, I could maintain a stable life. But the reality is not like that. I have realized this."

"you……"

Looking at Sayu in front of him, the young man was obviously very surprised. Obviously, this sister was completely different from his memory. Fang Zheng could also understand the young man's feelings. After all, when Sayu first came to his house, she was very humble and acted according to other people's moods. This was because it was a habit formed since childhood, and generally speaking, it was not so easy to change.

However, following Fang Zheng, Sayu also experienced many moments where her life was on the line. Although they were just minor troubles in Fang Zheng's eyes, in Sayu's eyes, she had already walked on the tightrope of death countless times... It would be strange if there was no change after experiencing so much.

"Anyway, let's not stay here... I have something I want to tell you."

As he spoke, the young man tried to reach out and grab Sayu, but Sayu just took a step back.

"I'm sorry, brother, please don't argue with me on the street. If you have anything to say, I'd like to listen to you."

“Ah… Really…”

Seeing Sayu stepping back, the young man was somewhat disappointed, but he nodded. Sayu then turned around and looked at Fang Zheng.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, please come along too."

"Well, I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway, and I'm hungry."

Fang Zheng also stretched and walked over. It was only then that the young man noticed Fang Zheng and looked at him with a little surprise.

"This is..."

"This is Mr. Fang Zheng, the person who took me in and took care of me while I was away."

Sayu said this and then looked at Fang Zheng.

"It just so happens that I know a fast food restaurant nearby that should meet your requirements, Mr. Fang Zheng."

"What can I ask for from a fried chicken burger? Can it be burnt?"

Fang Zheng walked towards the fast food restaurant with Sayu without a care in the world, and started to complain at the same time. The young man was stunned for a moment, then looked at the two of them suspiciously, and then followed them silently.

Soon, the three of them came to a nearby fast food restaurant and sat down. Fang Zheng then ordered a hamburger, fried chicken and a Coke, then sat aside, watching the brother and sister sitting opposite each other as a spectator.

Then, Sha Youxian took out an envelope from the bag at hand and handed it over.

"This is……"

"This is three hundred thousand, brother. This is the money you borrowed from me when I ran away from home. Now I return it to you."

"Three hundred thousand... where did you get the money?"

The young man stared at the envelope in front of him, while Fang Zheng answered while eating a hamburger.

"This guy works as a maid in my house, earning 150,000 a month. It shouldn't be hard to get 300,000, and there's also a bonus."

“…”

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the young man frowned and stared at him, then looked at Sayu again.

"I'm sorry, Sayu, I want to confirm that there is no hidden relationship between you and this gentleman."

"Of course not."

Sayu seemed quite calm.

"In fact, when I first met Mr. Fang Zheng, I offered to use my body as collateral for my debt and asked him to take me in. However, he rejected my request and hired me to do his housework and chores, and he was willing to pay me a salary."

"this……"

It must be said that the young man was quite surprised to hear Sayu's words, and then looked at Fang Zheng.

"To be honest, asking a high school girl to do housework and hiding her at home for so long seems like something that only a normal person could do..."

"Oh? Really?"

Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"Where can you find such a good thing? If you know someone like her, please introduce her to me. Food and lodging are provided, okay?"

"Well……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's unconventional answer, the young man was speechless again. He could only cough awkwardly and turned to look at Sayu.

"Sayu, Mom is worried about you."

It was just a very ordinary sentence, but Sayu's expression seemed indifferent.

"That's a lie, brother. There's no way Mom would worry about me."

Her expression didn't seem to be one of anger, nor of rebellion. She was simply stating a fact. The young man lowered his head and hesitated for a moment as if he had something to hide.

"At least... Mom is looking for you and worrying about you."

"Why?"

Sayu seems genuinely curious. Generally speaking, it's natural for parents to worry about their runaway children, but it's obvious that with Sayu, this kind of naturalness doesn't exist.

"There's no reason for mom to look for me."

"this……"

Fang Zheng watched this scene with great interest, and found it quite interesting. Generally speaking, in such situations, the one who ran away from home would be in the wrong. But in Sayu's case, she seemed to be very confident and justified, while her brother seemed to be having a hard time.

"Please tell me the real reason."

"actually……"

Faced with Sayu's questioning, the young man had to grit his teeth and tell the truth.

"It's from the PTA... I suspect she has locked her daughter up at home."

PTA is indeed a problem.

Fang Zheng nodded silently. PTA refers to the Parents' Association, but it is different from the Chinese one where parents are invited to attend meetings. It is an independent non-governmental organization that is mainly concerned with the physical and mental health of minors, as well as anything that threatens minors, such as domestic violence and bad guys. Of course, for most Chinese people, this thing is abhorrent.

You should know that PTA has always been committed to destroying the Japanese animation industry. They have to mosaic the content, and do not allow people under the age of 18 to appear. Even if it is a healthy animation, they often report it in various forms. For example, they will report Conan using a gun in Conan, they will also report smoking in the animation, and they will also report some 15R animations where the holy light is not bright enough.

Of course, strictly speaking, the American PTA actually has more power, but the American PTA only cares about its own country, unlike the Japanese PTA, which is deeply hated by comic fans all over the world and causes more additional damage than direct damage.

From the perspective of the local PTA, it is not surprising that they would suspect that Sayu has suffered domestic violence or imprisonment since she has not shown up at school and is not seen at home.

"In fact, your class teacher came to visit us several times after you left home. However, because your mother didn't like to make a big deal out of it, she didn't tell anyone else that you ran away from home. She just said that her daughter refused to leave the room and chased the person away. But this has been going on for so long...it's bound to arouse suspicion."

"So, mom came to me just to get rid of the suspicion, right?"

Sayu was very calm.

"But now it seems that her wish cannot be fulfilled."

"...When I heard from the teacher that you had caused a big scene at school, I was also shocked."

The young man looked at Sayu with an uneasy look on his face.

"I heard that you even beat up a classmate? Why did you do that?"

"Because they are the culprits who caused Yuiko to commit suicide. I want to avenge Yuiko. It's that simple."

"But you can't do this..."

"So, if they kill someone, can they just let it go?"

"That's not what I meant..."

"I can't forgive them. Yuiko was my only good friend, but she was forced to death by that group of people. I can't just do nothing, so I just did what I should do as Yuiko's friend. Since the law can't punish them, I will do it myself. This is the only redemption I can do for Yuiko."

Hearing Sayu's answer, the young man sighed and looked at Sayu.

"Will your friends be happy if you do this?"

"I have no idea."

Having said that, Sayu's expression remained unchanged as she simply stared at her brother.

"Because she's dead."

“…”

Sayu's answer decisively ended the conversation. The young man remained silent for a long time this time before he sighed.

"You've changed a lot."

"I can't help it. After all, I've been through a lot."

As she spoke, Sayu looked at Fang Zheng and rolled her eyes at him helplessly.

"So I realized that I was really stupid before. I just put my hopes on others, but in fact, if I want to do something, it ultimately depends on my own actions. So, I have to speak my mind and make my own choices."

“Sayu…”

"I'm grateful that you're worried about me, brother."

Sayu looked at the young man again, her expression softening.

"In that family, you are the only one who cares about me, but I also know that you have always been caught between me and mom, and you are in a dilemma. So, I will solve this matter myself."

"You...what would you do?"

"I will tell her that I will never go back and she can just pretend that I am not her daughter. When I come of age, I will completely cut off ties with this family."

"What?"

Hearing this, the young man was shocked.

"Sayu, you know that mom has her own reasons..."

"Children cannot choose their parents, and parents cannot choose their children. There is nothing we can do about it."

Sayu continued talking on her own.

"But, despite this, I also have the right to choose how I want to live my life."

“…”

"I have a new life now and can support myself, so I plan to transfer to Tokyo. This way, my mother won't have to worry about things here anymore. Of course, if anything else happens after this, it will have nothing to do with me."

Sayu spoke of her mother very coldly, as if she were talking about a stranger, and the young man hesitated.

"Well, although your idea is good, but the procedures..."

"Mr. Fang Zheng will help, so I just came to inform her. Whether she agrees or not, I will do what I want."

"But after the commotion you caused at school, do you think you can leave?"

"Don't worry about that."

Having said this, Sayu looked towards Fang Zheng and smiled.

"Mr. Fang Zheng will help me, right?"

"certainly."

Fang Zheng chuckled.

"I also want to try it out to see if it works."

“……???”

What are these two people talking about?

Looking at the scene in front of him, the young man was completely confused.

After that, Fang Zheng stood at the door. Sayu and her brother returned home. Then Fang Zheng heard a woman's hysterical roar and shouting from the house. It lasted for half an hour before it stopped. Then the door opened, Sayu walked out of the house, and her brother followed behind her with an uneasy look on his face.

"Yo, how's it going?"

"You guys should leave quickly. Mom has just called the police. If you don't leave now, the police will be here soon..."

“Beep, beep…”

However, just as the young man finished his words, a police car drove up the street with sirens blaring, and several policemen opened the doors, got out, and came in front of Sayu.

"Are you Ogihara Sayu? Please come with us to the police station. We want to have a good talk with you about your previous beating of classmates at school..."

As he spoke, a policeman reached out his hand and tried to grab Sayu, but at this moment, Fang Zheng stepped forward and stopped him.

"The child is currently under my custody. You have no right to interfere with her actions."

"Who are you? Do you want to be arrested?"

Seeing Fang Zheng, the policeman's face darkened, and Fang Zheng reached into his arms, took out a black ID card and opened it.

"This is my ID, do you understand now?"

"This is……"

Looking at the documents in front of them, the police were shocked. They quickly took a step back and saluted Fang Zheng.

"We are so sorry, we were rude!"

"Well, I'll take care of the child. If everything is fine, you can leave."

"Yes, I'm so sorry."

After saying this, the policeman got into the car and left quickly. At this time, Sayu also came over curiously and looked at the document in Fang Zheng's hand.

“I didn’t expect this to be so useful.”

"Well, it seems that the other party did not deceive us."

Hearing Sayu's answer, Fang Zheng nodded. The reason why Sayu chose to beat up the three people in public at school was not just to vent her anger. If she just wanted to vent her anger, she could just put them in sacks and sink them into the sea when they were out of school. The reason for doing this was to verify whether Fang Zheng's special certificate was really useful. After all, according to Detective Ida, as long as they had this certificate, no matter what they did, no one would come to trouble them.

For something like this, Fang Zheng naturally had to give it a try.

So Sayu volunteered to go to the school and cause this riot.

Of course she knew that this would result in the police being called, so she wanted to see if the ID was really that powerful.

Now it seems that this is really amazing.

"Great, I want it too..."

“Try hard.”

Looking at the girl beside him, Fang Zheng chuckled.

"You're still early."
