"Why did you suddenly go to Hokkaido? Did you remember something?" Jutsu Tadara asked Hinata Hajime on the train.
After Hinata Hajime decided to go to Hokkaido, he acted quickly. He notified Totsuka Tadara on his phone and immediately bought the train tickets. Fortunately, Totsuka Tadara really came. Anna and Kusanagi Izumo came to see them off. Kusanagi Izumo didn't understand why two grown men wanted to go out for a trip, but he didn't object.
Although Kusanagi Izumo was full of worries, he was worried that Juzuka Tadara would be beaten if he went out because of his personality.
In Tokyo he is a follower of the Red King, but in Hokkaido he is nothing.
After reluctantly comforting Kusanagi Izumo, Toushu Tadara promised to bring many specialties for Anna and then got in the car.
"It may be related to that strange glowing fragment." Hinata Hajime replied.
"Oh, it's the glowing fragment you've been looking for." Jushu Duoduoliang nodded. "Come to think of it, although I've always known that you were looking for this kind of thing, and I didn't forget to look for it even after losing my memory, but I still don't know what you're looking for and what it's for."
Hinata Hajime thought for a moment and said, "That's probably a sign."
"Sign?"
"Well, it's probably similar to an item that represents a person's psychological state." Hinata Hajime said, "Look at me, I'm an outsider who can sense human emotions, and the fragment is also a fragment that can sense human emotions, but it's a bit extreme and can only sense whether a person's current state is good or bad."
Jutsu Tado thought for a moment, "It sounds like an ordinary tool, but you seem a little anxious to find it. What will happen if you don't have it?"
“It’s probably contagious.”
"Infectious?"
"Yes, that's it." Hinata Hajime gave Jutsu Tadara an analogy, "If a person is in a bad mood, this thing will detect it and carry that person's bad mood. Then if other people come into contact with this fragment, their mood will also become bad."
Juzuka Tadara's eyes lit up, "How interesting!"
"But on the contrary, if a person who is in a good mood and strong touches it, then the person who takes it off and touches it will also become happy."
"I really want to see it." Jushu Duoduoliang exclaimed, "There is actually a weapon with this effect. Is this something you got when you became an outsider?"
"I forgot." Hinata Sou sighed, "I forgot too many things. I don't even know my past. I only know that if this thing is scattered outside, it will lead to a terrible situation. If it is picked up by a good person, it will be fine. If it is picked up by a bad person, it may spread and even increase the suicide rate in the city."
"It's really hard to say." Shishu Duoduo sighed, "So this time you remembered where you threw it?"
Hinata Hajime nodded, pretending to think, "I think it's most likely in Hokkaido."
[Your deception skills have improved. ]
[…This is not worthy of praise, and they gave me an outsider identity that can sense emotions, wouldn’t it be a shame if I didn’t use it? ]
Kamiya Izuru looked helpless, [You are right.]
"Speaking of which, did Zun introduce a job to you before?" Jutsu Tadara put his arm on Hinata Hajime's shoulder. "Izumo and I were shocked when we found out. How could he introduce a job to others? What kind of job was it?"
"Well, it was Ao-Oh who asked me for help." Hinata Hajime said, "There are some problems with the supernatural criminals caught by Scepter 4. It's probably that some very bad people suddenly became good people."
Juzuka Tado nodded, "Oh, so you suspect this is caused by the thing you're looking for."
"Yes." Hinata Hajime sighed, "Although turning bad guys into good guys sounds good, we can't go on like this."
"Understood." Jutsu Tadoroki leaned back in his chair, "Let's work together!"
Now that Houmaira has not found Hinata Hajime's friend, Toushu Tadara sometimes wonders if the girl named Nanami Chiaki does not exist in this world. The rate of having the same name in Japan is very low, and even now with the skyrocketing population of Japan, there are not too many people with the same name.
There aren't many people who don't meet the age requirement after filtering them out, but Hinata Sou said that those people are not.
Everyone who found the last Huowu Luo was about to give up, but now think about it.
If you can't find Hinata's friends, helping him find what he's looking for is also a help.
After getting off the train, Hinata Souma and Jutsu Tadara took the bus and finally arrived at this small country town in the evening. Standing at the highest point, they could see the sea. There were scattered houses on the seashore. It did not have the compactness and modernity of Tokyo and looked very comfortable.
"I've booked a hotel." Hinata Hajime tied up his long hair that was messed up by the sea breeze, "Are you hungry?"
"I can't eat." Jushu Duoduoliang moved his shoulders. "I've been sitting in the car for too long. I feel so tired."
"As a clan of the Red King, you are already tired after such a short journey."
"I'm not a fighter." Jutsu Tadara followed behind Hinata Soshin, "Leave the fighting to Izumo and Hatta."
"But we can go there for dinner. Usually, restaurants like this are the places where gossips abound. Who are you going to ask about, Hinata?" Jutsu Tado asked, "What's his name? Do you have a special identity? Is it related to the work you did for the Blue King before?"
Hinata Sou thought for a moment, "Miyagi and Carpenter are father and son. The father was the village chief, and the son left for about ten years."
"Wow, a carpenter!" Jutsu Tadara's eyes lit up instantly, "I'm very interested in this. I've wanted to learn it before, but there was no place that taught it. This is great."
"...Your interests are too broad." Hinata Hajime complained silently.
After Japan became the world's number one country, central cities became more and more prosperous. Tokyo and places with convenient transportation became unimaginably modern. Young people abandoned traditions, and everyone yearned for big cities. Although small mountain villages were better than before, they were still different from the cities.
It has been a long time since young people from other places came to this small town in Hokkaido.
So when Hinata Hajime and Jutsu Tadara casually walked into a crowded restaurant, they immediately received a lot of attention.
When Hinata Hajime looked up after looking at the menu, he unexpectedly discovered that Juushu Tadara was already chatting with the people around him.
Hinata Hajime: ...
Those who say that he is popular should come out and take a look. It is obvious that Shishu Duoduoliang is the one who can chat with anyone!
"What to eat?" Hinata Hajime asked Jutsuki Tado.
"Let's go for the set meal recommended by Uncle Hayata." Jusuka Tadoroki immediately climbed up the pole, "Hinata, try it too, everyone says it's delicious!"
Hinata Sou nodded, "Okay, then I'll order two sets."
The uncle named Hayata laughed. "Hey, young man, you are really funny, but why did you come to this place? You young people probably don't like such a remote place. Are you hiking? I heard that this is popular among you young people."
"Of course not. Do you think I can hike?" Jutsu Tadara said, "I came here because I heard there are traditional carpenters here!"
"Eh? Carpenter?"
"Yes!" Jusu Tadara stood up, "Actually, I'm very interested in this, but I couldn't find a way to learn it. I heard about this place, so I brought my friends here. This time I must learn real woodworking and make a princess bed for my sister Anna!"
[…It seems my lying skills are still not up to par.]
[Just a talent for lying... Never mind, you're not that good at lying anyway. ]
"The carpenter is Mr. Miyagi?" The uncle next to him said while drinking. "If you think about it, Mr. Miyagi's skills are really amazing. Mr. Miyagi made the bed for me when I was a child, and it's still very sturdy."
"But Mr. Miyagi is not in the village right now. You came at an unfortunate time."
Jutsu Tadoroki sat down, "Huh? He's not here?"
"He went to Tokyo to visit his son."
Jutsu Tadara and Hinata Hajime looked at each other, and then he continued to ask, "When can he come back?"
"If everything goes well, he should be able to return in the next two days." Uncle Hayata said, "You said that Mr. Miyagi was a diligent and good man all his life. Even now, there are still young people who come to learn from him because of his craft. How come he gave birth to a son like that? Not only did he run away from home for more than ten years, but now he is..."
"Stop talking about it." The uncle next to him sighed, "You are simply throwing the reputation of Mr. Gongcheng for most of his life into the mud."
Jutsu Tadoroki whispered, "Should I not have come?"
"No, it's none of your business."
It seemed that the topic was sensitive and no one in the store spoke anymore. Finally, one of the uncles pointed to the location of Tomokazu's store and then walked away shaking his head.
Hinata Hajime looked at his back, and after a moment he closed his blinds and looked at the table.
Therefore, most people in the village knew that Miyagi Satoshi was arrested, and judging from the situation, they probably knew what Miyagi Satoshi had done. Then why didn't Miyagi Mika, Miyagi Satoshi's father, know about it? Is it because everyone in the village is hiding it from him?
Jutsu Tadoyoshi patted Hinata Hajime's wrist from behind, "How is it?"
"Ask again." Hinata Sou replied in a low voice: "About the son of the Miyagi family."
Juzuka Tado raised an eyebrow, and after a moment he nodded, "Wait for me."
Then Jushu Tado stood up and walked to the menu. Inside, the boss was busy. Jushu Tado said, "Boss, can I ask you a question?"
"What do you want to ask, young man?"
"It's about Mr. Miyagi, what happened to his son?" Jutsu Tadara said helplessly, "Look, I'm here to learn. If this place doesn't work, I'll look for other places. I've already agreed with sister Anna to give this gift on her birthday."
The boss scratched his hair and spoke after a moment, "If we didn't catch the wrong person, it should be reported in the news soon."
"Mr. Miyagi's son was arrested, and it was quite serious. Everyone knew about it, but they kept it a secret from the old man, fearing that he would get into trouble when he got older. Who knew that his son did something bastard outside and didn't forget the address here? His wife couldn't stand being beaten by him, so she ran away with the children and came to the old man to ask for an explanation."
"As soon as Mr. Miyagi learned about this, he received the news that the man had been arrested, so he went straight to Tokyo."
"Please wait a moment." The boss said helplessly, "Please believe me, Mr. Miyagi is a very, very good person."
Jutsu Tado nodded, thanked him and returned to his seat.
"Hinata, the case you mentioned of a bad guy turning into a good guy, including Mr. Miyagi's son?"
"Yeah." Hinata Sou whispered, "Because only when the fragments come into contact with a good person will they turn the other person into a good person, so I wanted to come here and take a look."
“So that’s how it is.”
Jusu Tado nodded and took a bite of the fried shrimp.
"……tasty!"
"Right."
"You have to treat me to this meal. I know you just received a reward from the Green King."
"Of course."
