Chapter 361 Sawada Tsunayoshi’s Thoughts Sawada Tsunayoshi…
Sawada Tsunayoshi's doubts were soon resolved.
The muscular, shirtless man wiped the sweat from his face with the towel around his neck and said enthusiastically, "Oh, it's Miss Chiyo. It's been a while. Would you like some fresh seafood? We just caught it today!"
"Going to the specialty products section? What specialties are you buying? Why not come and try my seafood? My seafood is number one in freshness, and no one dares to say I'm second!"
The kind-looking woman had a smile on her face. "Is this Xiao Chiyo? You haven't been here for a long time. We left some vegetables we grew for you. You must accept them this time!"
"Going to the specialty produce area? The vegetables there won't taste as good as the ones I grow!"
The child, dressed simply but in high spirits, smiled and said to his friend beside him, "It's Chiyo-sister!"
"Specialty products section? The specialty products section is right in front. I'll take Chiyo-sister and the two guests there!"
…
…
As the players and others gradually go deeper into the center of the street, such conversations continue, and they also put their words into practice, while talking, constantly piling up what they say on the players.
A shirtless man unceremoniously shoved a large basket of still-jumping fish and shrimp over, then walked away with a calm demeanor, continuing to entertain guests. An elderly woman placed a sack of green vegetables at the lap of several people before departing at an unusually fast pace. A girl with pigtails blushed as she stuffed a handful of candy into the hands of a black-haired girl. There were also adorable pendants hand-woven by a skilled craftsman. There was even a self-defense weapon that had appeared out of nowhere...
By the time they trudged to the specialty product sales area, the players' hands were already laden with things, and even Sawada Tsunayoshi's hands were full of gifts from enthusiastic stall owners.
"Aurora... you're so welcome..." Sawada Tsunayoshi held the gifts in his hands with difficulty, trying his best not to let everyone's gifts fall to the ground.
"Are you all right, Tsunayoshi-kun?" After stuffing everything into his backpack, the player quickly rescued the brown-haired boy who had nearly buried himself in the gifts. "Everyone seems a little overly enthusiastic, haha."
In front of NPCs with high favorability, players are treated differently!
"I'm fine, just a little surprised." Sawada Tsunayoshi exhaled and said, "So Aurora's solution to getting lost is to ask for directions."
He thought it was some new type of weapon.
"It's more than that." Reborn looked at the two people who were busy sorting the gifts, and raised his eyebrows slightly. "That little girl we met just now... was waiting there a long time ago, wasn't she?"
"Yeah, that's right," the player said. "The reason there are no road signs here is because the children who live here can act as NPC guides. And... because the food court has clearly marked prices, these children can occasionally make a little extra money."
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "But, they look about the same age as us. Shouldn't they be... in school right now?"
"You're talking about this..." The player flipped through the map and, after seeing a building under construction, replied, "The school they're using is still under construction. The children here can't go to school directly for the time being."
This is the plan that the player mentioned before. Because the player is addicted to the dungeon, the progress is relatively slow, but fortunately it is almost completed.
Sawada Tsunayoshi: “Huh?”
Why is there no way to go to school directly?
Reborn: "I see."
This statement...the most likely possibility is that these children are all illegal residents.
"Because most of the children here are unregistered, without household registration, it's a bit difficult to register them for school. Plus, there are very few people who can even read, so there's no basic knowledge at all, so it's a bit difficult."
Under Sawada Tsunayoshi's shocked gaze, the player continued, "Yokohama is a special place, especially Raibo Street. The previous war created many homeless people, and then there was a huge explosion, which gave rise to Raibo Street."
"That's it."
Tsunayoshi Sawada looked in the direction Aurora pointed, but saw only darkness. The only thing that could be considered bright was the street lights that appeared every few meters - perhaps this was the only light on Leibo Street that had not been destroyed.
"It's so dark..." he muttered.
"It's much better now than before. At least they've installed streetlights that those guys don't dare to destroy." The player stroked his chin and whispered in the brown-haired boy's ear, "Otherwise, it would always be pitch black at night. If you're not careful, it would become a gathering place for all kinds of people and illegal transactions."
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "It sounds dangerous..."
"In places like these, where people live well, they attract the envy of others. In such situations, electricity is a precious resource."
Reborn, who was well-versed in these situations, explained, "If a person has electricity in their home but lacks the power to intimidate others, they will become a target in that area."
"Why is this happening..."
"Those living at the bottom of society must resort to even more unscrupulous means to survive, so the so-called moral bottom line is nothing to them. However, there are also those with corrupted hearts who, regardless of the cost, want to drag others into the abyss with them."
"When an unlimited number of people strive for limited resources, conflict will arise." Reborn, accustomed to such situations, spoke without wavering. "This is why crime thrives, and it's also easy for mafias that rely on violence to emerge."
"But... no matter where you are, outstanding talents will always stand out. Xanxus—he is such an example."
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "..."
Seeing his disciple fall silent, Reborn added, "But you don't have to worry too much. At least this place is slowly getting better."
This is obvious, thought Reborn, who discovered Aurora's plan to layout in this area.
"Really? Aurora? Ao...eh? Where is she?" Tsunayoshi Sawada looked at the girl with black hair and golden eyes, but saw that she had run away again at some point and was talking to a little girl with long black hair.
Tsunayoshi Sawada watched Aurora hand her a bag of things, then gently touched her hair, and ran back under the little girl's reluctant gaze.
"I just ran into a familiar little girl and went over to chat for a while." After communicating with the cute little girl, the player's eyebrows curved, and even the atmosphere around them became more cheerful. "What do you want from me, Tsunayoshi-kun?"
"Do you know that little girl?"
"Well, I wouldn't say I'm very familiar with her, but she's a good kid." The player winked playfully. "She's the kind of kid who, even if she were kidnapped by human traffickers together, would still care about strangers."
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "Huh? Why is this hypothesis so specific? It feels so strange..."
Player: "Yeah, why is it so specific?"
Of course, it’s because this is the player’s personal experience!
"Let's not talk about that. I was just asking how she and her brother are doing lately," the player said, sighing. "That kid has a strong desire to join the Port Mafia. She always looks at me with those sparkling eyes. It's really a headache."
"Isn't this a good thing?" Reborn said, "He has a weak aura by nature, making him a good candidate for an assassin."
"Reborn, what are you talking about? Don't involve innocent children in this so casually!"
"She is too young and doesn't have enough ability to judge whether things are good or bad!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi and Aurora objected at the same time.
"Naive." Reborn lowered the brim of his black hat and snorted coldly. "None of the children who can survive in such a mixed place are simple. At least they have a strong intuition about danger."
For them, joining the most powerful mafia in Yokohama is undoubtedly a good way out.
"In short, don't treat them as ordinary children."
Player: “…”
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "..."
The player muttered quietly, "Let's talk about what we were talking about just now, Tsunayoshi-kun, what did you want to ask me just now?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi also whispered: "I agree,... Actually it's nothing, why don't you continue to tell me about this food street."
Reborn: "...you two guys."
You are so brave!
————————
After blatantly ignoring Reborn's words, the player who had two big bumps on his body from Len's hammer and Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at each other silently, squatted on the ground at the same time, and drew circles on the ground with sad faces.
"Oh, damn Reborn..."
"Oh, damn Reborn..."
"If you don't get up, you two will be waiting for what happens to you." Reborn sneered, "You are so bold, stupid Tsuna, how dare you ignore my words like this..."
"It seems like it's time for you to see my skills."
After hearing Reborn's threat, Sawada Tsunayoshi stood up quickly with a stiff face and loudly defended himself: "I didn't! I didn't!"
The player decisively agreed: "Yes, that's it!"
Crack——
It's the sound of a bullet being loaded.
The player, who had calmed down, lowered his head and immediately changed his words, "Okay, no."
"Aurora?!" Tsunayoshi Sawada looked at the black-haired girl in disbelief. She had just been on the same side with him, so why did she change her mind so quickly?
I'm sorry, Tsunayoshi-kun, the player is looking pretty today and doesn't really want to fight -
The player waved his little hand and then covered his eyes.
…
…
After a commotion, the player took poor Tsunayoshi, who had just been scolded by his teacher, to buy the specialties he needed, as well as gifts for Ippei, Rambo, Fuuta, and Biyangqi. Then, on the way to the "Special Food Building", they got back to business.
"The location of the food court is indeed on the edge of Leibo Street, but I just happened to get this piece of land at the time, but I didn't expect it to be so suitable."
The system is still somewhat useful.
"What's suitable?" Sawada Tsunayoshi asked curiously.
"Of course, it's because of its location. It allows us to effectively implement subsequent plans." After hearing the brown-haired boy's question, the player explained, "Because it's only the first phase of the project. When I have time, I will expand it towards Leibo Street, and then-"
The player snorted.
"As for whether this piece of land will eventually belong to me..."
That's a must!
The player, who still needed to be modest on the surface, put his finger to his lips with a mysterious smile on his face, "Why bother with so much? Let's just get on with it. Anyway, let's fill this big hole first."
It was originally a place that was neither interesting to eat there nor a pity to abandon. Due to the strong exclusivity of Leibo Street and historical factors, the official side had no way to manage it and arrange for the evacuation of personnel. If the players are willing to accept this land, the official should just be grateful to the players!
If the player gains land, it is the player's first win; if the player gains an NPC that can do work, it is the player's second win; if the player's territory expands and his power level increases, it is the player's third win; if the happiness of the residents in the area managed by the player increases, it is the player's fourth win; if the official compromises, it is the player's fifth win!
There are six, seven, eight, nine, ten... In short, the player wins big!
The player raised his chin proudly when he thought of this.
Amazing! Aurora is about the same age as me, but she has such a clear goal...
Moreover, the mafia should be feared by everyone, but along the way, every stall owner would have a happy smile on his face after seeing Aurora.
It was Aurora's actions that completely changed their lives.
Tsunayoshi Sawada looked at the black-haired girl who was in fantasy, with eyes full of light and electricity, and felt a strange sense of loss in his heart.
What will his future be like? And what does he really want to do?
Although he still didn't want to become a mafia boss, if he just thought about the future... what kind of future would he want so that he wouldn't regret it?
Reborn looked at Sawada Tsunayoshi who was thinking with his head down, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he let out an imperceptible hum.
At this moment, Aurora's surprised voice sounded in their ears.
"Ah! We're here!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi raised his head and saw a tall building with a shape that blended in with the surrounding environment but had a unique color appear in front of him.
"This is……"
