Chapter 95 Chapter 95 "If I go with you, can I save my sister? ...
"Kenji-chan is just trying to be pitiful."
At that moment, he thought of countless possibilities, but he never expected it to be such a simple approach. Zhu Fu Jingguang fell silent.
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
Kenji Hagiwara has not yet fully recovered. Although he spoke in a lively tone just now, his voice was not loud and his face looked very pale. In addition, the words he just said even sounded a bit silly, which really made him look like a "miserable person".
With this inner certainty, Zhu Fu Jingguang chose to turn around and leave.
What a joke! He is not Jinpei Matsuda, he will not be soft-hearted towards Kenji Hagiwara.
Hagihara Kenji: "..."
Hagiwara Kenji: "Why don't you follow the script, Komorobushi!"
He took a few quick steps to bypass Morifushi Kagemitsu and stood in front of him. Just these few steps made Hagiwara Kenji breathe slightly.
Zhu Fu Jingguang: “…” He looks really miserable, even though it’s his own fault.
His gaze passed over Hagiwara Kenji and landed on a small black dot in the distance. For a split second, the cat-eyed young man looked back at the person in front of him and asked with equal sincerity, "If you're not going to Matsuda to vent your misery, what's the point of coming to me?"
Before he called out "Jinpei", he remembered the advice given by Matsuda Jinpei when he rushed from Nagano to Kanagawa last time, and changed his words.
"Jinpei-kun refuses to see me alone," Hagiwara Kenji spoke candidly, making it impossible for Morofushi Keimitsu to connect him with the "Tennessee" that Jinpei Matsuda had mentioned. "To avoid any chance of being alone with me, Jinpei-kun even began to tone down his presence when he was at the Metropolitan Police Department. He was often surrounded by younger admirers, and I didn't dare enter his apartment without his permission."
"I did something really cruel to Xiao Zhenping before, and I want to feel his pain myself... But deep down, I still secretly hope that when Xiao Zhenping learns of my plight, he'll come visit me out of pity, or even out of heartache."
He seemed genuinely aggrieved by this. "In the end, I still haven't been able to wait for Xiao Zhenping. I was afraid that Xiao Zhenping would disappear again when I couldn't see him, so I pulled out all the needles and ran out."
Morifushi Kagemitsu: "..." He actually wanted to tell Hagiwara Kenji that as long as he waited a few more days, the day he recovered and was discharged from the hospital, he would be able to wait for Matsuda Jinpei to appear and Matsuda Jinpei's fist.
"...But Jinpei-kun should already know why I was hospitalized," Hagiwara Kenji looked into Morobushi Kagemitsu's eyes. "I suddenly didn't dare to approach Jinpei-kun directly. But he trusted Morobushi—I was always jealous of this fact in the past, never realizing that this trust was based on Jinpei-kun's dedication to me. Your true connection was due to me, and one of the reasons Jinpei-kun trusted you was because you sacrificed your own interests in exchange for my future."
The cat-eyed young man was trying to resist the urge to take a step back.
Kenji Hagiwara didn't know about his amnesia, but fortunately, Jinpei Matsuda gave him a timely explanation in the afternoon. Scotland had converted Tennessee from a code member to an informant of the Public Security Bureau at Jinpei Matsuda's request. Matsuda Jinpei didn't know the specific method, but later he guessed that it must have cost a lot.
But even if this is the case, Morofushi Kagemitsu felt that the Hagiwara Kenji in front of him was a little different from the last time he saw him in Kanagawa.
Could it be that a trip to the brink of life and death causes a drastic change in one's temperament?
Morobushi Kagemitsu was quietly pondering his own problem. Hagiwara Kenji had already decided to take his silence as tacit approval. "So I thought, if I could get little Morobushi to understand me even a little bit, maybe it could influence little Jinpei... I know it's selfish to say this, but I can't think of any other way now."
"That potion was originally intended to fulfill the mission Rum gave me, to alienate you and Bourbon. However, the specific implementation was designed by me—an act twisted by jealousy and possessiveness." He bowed slightly to Zhufu Jingguang, "I'm sorry, Zhufu."
This time Zhu Fu Jingguang really couldn't help but take a step back.
Didn't the report that Fūya Rei brought back state that the drug not only affects the glands but also the brain?
The cat's eye swept across the small black dot again - the distance was much closer.
Kenji Hagiwara seemed not to notice the strange look from Keimitsu Morifushi and officially began his "playing the victim" act.
He had a happy childhood until his sister accidentally differentiated into her second gender prematurely, which caused problems and required a lot of money for treatment. However, to make matters worse, the Hagiwara family went bankrupt.
It's easier to add icing on the cake than to help someone in need. Friends and relatives who used to interact with the Hagiwara family felt it would be difficult for them to recover after this double blow, and most were unwilling to lend money. The few who were willing to help couldn't even cover what the Hagiwara family now considered a bottomless pit of medical expenses.
Kenji Hagiwara has a close and understanding relationship with his older sister. Upon overhearing his parents' conversation, he immediately asked them to sell his beloved car, which they had promised him, to support his sister's treatment. Seeing Chisawa Hagiwara lying in a hospital bed in dire condition, feigning indifference while comforting his parents and younger brother by saying she didn't really like this world that much, he was distraught.
But he was too young to earn money, so he had to muster the courage and shamelessness to launch a crowdfunding campaign at school. Some of his friends, still unsophisticated, gave all their pocket money to Hagiwara. Others, persuaded by their parents, stayed away from him. Even some teachers became less friendly. The amount they raised was barely a fraction of the massive medical bills.
Kenji Hagiwara even went to look for relatives without his parents' knowledge. As a young boy who had come from a wealthy family, he was initially unwilling to believe that his usually kind uncles and aunts would refuse to lend a helping hand, until he encountered obstacles everywhere and experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature.
It seemed as if the whole world had become dark and dim.
The turning point came on a rainy day.
Without a trace of a smile in his eyes, he still managed to put on his most endearing smile, one that would please his elders, as he explained his family's difficulties to a distant aunt who had rarely opened her door. He even imitated his father's words without any instruction and sincerely promised to repay the debt as soon as possible and to the best of his ability. Just as the aunt was about to agree to help with some of the money, her husband slammed the door shut without hesitation: "We haven't even gathered enough money for our son's overseas trip in two years. How can we afford to pay such an unlucky brat?"
This was the last relative Hagiwara Kenji could find with his own ability. When he turned to leave, he realized it was raining outside. Although he had an umbrella with him, he felt that he no longer had the strength to open it.
A woman dressed in black suddenly stood before Hagiwara Kenji. She looked as if she had just attended a funeral. A black veil obscured most of her face, but the small glimpse of her face revealed a rare beauty.
Kenji Hagiwara was blocked but did not say a word, letting the rain from the woman's umbrella soak his hair and clothes.
This action somehow pleased the woman. She condescended to half-kneel down, her emerald green eyes peering through her veil. "Will you come with me?"
Without asking where they were going, or what they would face, Hagiwara Kenji looked at the fabric on the man's body, which even his mother had been reluctant to wear before, now wet at the bottom by the splashing raindrops, and simply asked: "If I go with you, can I save my sister?"
After getting a positive answer, Kenji Hagiwara followed the other person and left. He told his parents who were running around to raise medical expenses that the school would be going out for a while, and begged the woman to pretend to be a school teacher and his mother respectively to hide the fact that he did not go to school regularly from both sides.
After showing his talent in the organization, the Hagiwara family was fortunate enough to receive funding from a kind-hearted entrepreneur one day. Not only was Hagiwara Chisu's medical expenses settled, but even the auto repair shop showed signs of revival.
It seemed as if everything was back on track, except for Kenji Hagiwara's life.
He was brought to the side of that woman and fell from darkness into an even more hopeless abyss.
The huge amount of money allocated to the Hagiwara family by "kind-hearted people" requires him to repay it several times with tasks.
The organization did not completely restrict Kenji Hagiwara's personal freedom. Under the protection of that woman, he was able to avoid being discovered by his family over the years.
One year, for some unknown reason, the woman suddenly stopped paying so much attention to Hagiwara Kenji, which made him feel a little relieved. However, he found that he no longer had the strong desire to escape from the organization that he had at the beginning.
It's because he has become accustomed to this kind of life filled with blood, darkness and lies, because he knows that anyone who tries to escape from the organization will not have a good ending, because... he feels that he may only be suitable to stay in such a place.
After learning that Chisuga Hagiwara decided to become a police officer, Kenji Hagiwara felt proud that his sister could still be so outstanding after going through hardships, but at the same time he deeply realized that he would not have such a life.
Until he met Jinpei Matsuda.
This police officer, who was in the light, was keenly aware of the dark aura around Kenji Hagiwara, but he still resolutely decided to pull him out of the quagmire.
It's a pity that at that time he no longer knew how to deal with such pure love and kindness from people other than his family. His excessive inferiority complex in front of Matsuda Jinpei turned into superficial arrogance, and he severely hurt Matsuda Jinpei with the darkness that had been ingrained in his bones over the years.
"It was only after I lost Jinpei-chan that I slowly realized how wrong I was," Hagiwara Kenji took a step closer to Morobushi Kagemitsu, "especially this time when I almost came face to face with death. I somehow felt that I could have been close friends with Jinpei-chan, and even with you, Bourbon, and Date—"
Zhu Fushi Jingguang was startled. Just as he was about to ask something, he saw the small black dot that was slowly closing the distance finally lose its patience and rushed over to give Hagiwara Kenji a ruthless headbutt: "You deliberately dropped the key with the '0' engraved on it at my door, making me mistake it for something left by Master Jing and chase after him, just to listen to you talk about these imaginary things?"
At the same time, a dark-skinned hand pulled Zhu Fujingguang behind him and said in a bad tone: "Hagiwara, the public security has a limit to its tolerance for you."
