Chapter 67
Yuichi Yamashiro, 18 years old, one of the candidate officers of the Port Mafia.
In this country where people become adults at 18 and can drink alcohol at 20, it is not uncommon for someone to become a member of a black organization at the age of 18.
The title of candidate cadre may sound intimidating, but in reality, there are twenty-eight people holding this position!
As for the scumbag BOSS’s purpose…haha.
As we all know, Yokohama's transformation from a violent city began with Hachisha. After the famous white whale fall, it was difficult for any smoke of war to rise in Yokohama.
The blood of Yokohama people, who had nowhere to go, was deliberately guided by some people, resulting in the entire Yokohama being filled with extreme eight-foot pushes.
Just imagine, the high and mighty God only loves the world and is willing to put his blood on his hands to kill all dangers. As a person who is loved by God, who would not be moved?
While being loved by the "idol", as the loved people of God, we always want to do something for Yashayo.
As one of the radical fans, a port mafia boss is very good at catering to people's preferences. Because Hachiya likes to spread children's stories, the organization recruited a large number of minors and provided them with opportunities to eat.
That's how I got in.
As children indirectly blessed by "God", most of them are grateful. Coupled with the organization's ubiquitous brainwashing, they really believe that they are keeping up with "God" and making contributions to their homeland.
But Yamashiro Yuichi would always sneak out during story time. There was no need to listen to those unimportant things. The storyteller had never seen Hachisha, so how could he make it sound as if the grace of God benefited all living beings?
Yuichi Yamashiro has seen a truly loved Son of God.
As a promising young talent, when Yamashiro Yuichi first met Nakahara Chuuya, he was brought over as a candidate for the opponent's subordinate.
The petite boy had his own way of thinking. He took a stack of candidate information and looked through it carefully, and finally decided to keep them all by his side for a few days.
At that time, Yamashiro Yuichi hid in the crowd, trying to make himself less noticeable. His original wish was to work as a clerk in a safe place with a salary. Those "geniuses" who wanted to be famous just had to work hard to perform in front of their new bosses.
As for whether this performance pleased the new boss, Yamashiro Yuichi didn't want to care, but because of the special identity of Nakahara Chuuya, he couldn't help but pay attention to this new boss.
I heard that he was also one of the people who survived that "natural disaster" but lost everything.
So, how did he live like this, without any shadow of a shadow?
During his time as a temporary subordinate, Yamashiro Yuichi observed that Nakahara Chuuya was a very easy-going person. Because he was in a high position at a young age, he seemed to have a bad temper. But if you get to know him better, you will find that he respects the elders and sympathizes with the weak, which is much better than his partner.
How did an orphan covered in wounds grow up to be like this?
Yamashiro Yuichi knew the reason.
It was an ordinary afternoon.
Nakahara Chuuya's partner is causing trouble as usual. This time, he towed Nakahara's motorcycle to the scrapyard and kidnapped the female companion from the birthday party that night.
Compared to placing a bomb in the car, Yamashiro Yuichi felt that Lord Dazai was quite restrained this time, but it still made Lord Nakahara very angry.
Before he could start to angrily hit the perpetrator, his body froze in place.
At some point, the pink motorcycle was put back in place, with a letter in a beige envelope on top.
After opening the envelope and reading the contents, Yamashiro Yuichi clearly saw that Nakahara Chuuya smiled. The plan to beat the criminal was cancelled, and he didn't care about the birthday party that was originally a bit embarrassing. He always had a happy smile on his face.
Would such a smile appear on the face of an "orphan"? Yamashiro Yuichi himself could not smile.
It has been a long time since Yamashiro Yuichi had a smile that came from the heart, because of happiness. To say that he missed his deceased relatives very much, in fact, he didn't remember anything when the disaster happened, and he suddenly became an orphan.
But the scars left by the accident were everywhere, like a natural barrier separating him from the world.
How could a person who should be alone and out of tune with the world, who has joined an organization like the Mafia and has his hands stained with countless blood, smile like this?
That night he saw why.
The magnificent hall and the moving music all merged into the background at some point, and the tall woman in a dress decorated with white lace appeared, and everything became a foil.
Yuichi Yamashiro discovered that his boss even slowed down his breathing and slowly bent down with an extremely elegant invitation.
He did not fail to respond. He held her hand in the lace glove with great care, as if guarding a unique treasure in the world.
There are too many and too many emotions in a person's life, which are generally divided into family affection, friendship, love... The emotions revealed by the two figures in the middle of the dance floor do not belong to any of these categories, but they are equally profound.
The dance that night did not last too long. The tall god and the favored Son of God disappeared and left after the opening dance. Everyone agreed that the absence of the protagonist of the banquet was not a big deal.
For some reason, after they left, Yamashiro Yuichi used the mount provided by the organization and rushed around the city searching for a long time.
Finally, I found some figures at the highest point of the city. The black and white cloths were blown by the wind and intertwined together, creating an indescribable harmony and tranquility.
Yokohama was more peaceful than ever that night, and the black velvet-like sky was dotted with stars. It must be interesting to watch from the highest point in Yokohama.
Yuichi Yamashiro didn't know what that feeling was. He just watched quietly for a long time, then returned to the driver's seat and covered his face.
Is this what it feels like to be cherished by God?
I really want to be that person.
That night, Yuichi Yamashiro stayed in the car all night.
So rarely, when he was summoned by his boss the next day, he didn't even have time to change his clothes.
"I plan to take you in as my subordinate."
Before I could figure out my boss's slightly embarrassed expression, I heard him continue, "You probably don't like working outside. Follow me, and I'll try to arrange some clerical work for you."
The conditions given by Nakahara Chuuya perfectly meet his previous requirements. A smart person will not miss such an opportunity.
If you don't have any ideas or pursuits, it seems good to live a mediocre and comfortable life. But now that you have caught a glimpse of the bright moon, how can you bear to let it hang high?
He refused.
And a month later, he successfully obtained the qualification to go to the top floor room of the building.
In an unusual company, there are naturally unusual ways to get promoted, and the company is not short of young people who have reached high positions. However, he cannot completely copy the other person's path, he needs to be different.
To this end, it is not a bad thing to use extreme means and sacrifice some insignificant things. Give yourself a disguise, a person who is born dark? To cover up your true intentions.
Perhaps his disguise was too radical, and the man behind the scenes who used his unique hobby as a cover forgot what to do with his hands, and tapped his forehead with his fingers, pretending to be embarrassed.
"Yamashiro-kun, one should not always desire things that are impossible for him to obtain."
What is something that is unattainable? Since it was the same at the beginning, then it would be OK for him to do the same, right?
The purple-red eyes looked at him carefully and finally made a decision to transfer him to another city to be in charge of external affairs.
He didn't want to be transferred to another city, but his boss's order was absolute.
Fortunately, the things that were originally thought to be not so good had a lucky turn.
In several cities he visited, he met all kinds of "Sons of God".
Those who are extremely lucky have no idea why they are favored by God.
He had been to Namimori, where the tenth generation Vongola leader who was temporarily staying was incredibly young, but he often attracted the attention of the shrine maidens in white.
The shrine maiden who should have been sitting at the shrine appeared high above the town, stared down at a person, and then disappeared without a trace before the little animal could react with fear instinctively.
He has also been to Mihua, where he blends into the urban consciousness of the crowd, often stopping for the detective's whims, and re-integrating into the crowd after the mystery is revealed, making it difficult to find him.
Even the Nekomata from Tokyo, without any scruples, stayed in the academy hidden in the mountains for a long time. As the greatest confidence of the young sorcerer, he jokingly competed with the white-haired sorcerer for cakes.
Yuichi Yamashiro has thought a lot about what exactly are the reasons that attract them to stay?
The reason was not found when he returned to Yokohama.
To this day, he is still obsessed with searching for the beautiful figures hidden in this city.
I heard from my subordinates that someone spotted Him in the staff dormitory, where the port mafia shelters underage children. Someone saw light snow falling outside the window on a hot night when it was hard to sleep.
The newly adopted child, on the first night after going through blood and fire, got a rare night of peaceful and comfortable sleep.
Yokohama has a new legend——
Bashayo, the patron saint of minors, will protect children whose traumas have not yet healed, and shield them from nightmares.
Yuichi Yamashiro, who rushed to the scene after hearing the news, stopped outside the window where the city consciousness had lingered.
Suddenly he realized that the bed he could see through the window was the one he slept in on his first day in the Port Mafia.
Later, because of his outstanding talents, he only stayed in this low-grade dormitory for a week.
So his memory of that time was also blurred. He only vaguely remembered that the anxiety of being taken away from the slums plagued the entire dormitory, and all the children, including him, were worried about their future.
But as I recall, there was no trouble sleeping or eating because of this, and everyone slept peacefully on their rare beds.
That night, even the wind was gentle.
