Chapter 36
The biggest change after coming to Yokohama is that they now all live in the Yokohama branch of the Special Service Department and eat in the cafeteria of the Special Service Department.
No one knew what the people above were going to do, but they just threw them and the pages of their books to Yokohama. Except for the day they came and were attacked, they stayed in the branch every day and did nothing.
"It's so boring." Sakaguchi Ango lay on the table, flipping through the textbook, "I'd rather go to school and experience the hail of bullets than stay here every day without being able to go out."
Tsushima Shuji turned a page of the book and said, "When you experience the hail of bullets, you won't say such things anymore."
Sakaguchi Ango was disappointed: "That's true."
He twisted his chair a few times and said, "I don't know what Mr. Amamiya is doing. I haven't seen him for a few days. I was hoping to take part in his teaching class."
Tsushima Shuji: "You have just arrived in Yokohama, and you must have a lot of things to do, so just study on your own."
"Do you think everyone is as smart as you? You have learned the knowledge of the second grade of junior high school by self-study," Sakaguchi Ango held up his head, "Does Mr. Amamiya know that you learn so quickly?"
"Yes, Mr. happily prepared a delicious meal for me and even said that I might be able to take the entrance exam with you in the future."
Tsushima Shuji looked at Sakaguchi Ango with a half-smile: "Then I will be in the same grade as you."
Sakaguchi Ango shrank back and whispered, "You won't skip a grade and take the college entrance exam, will you? Wouldn't it be good to enjoy your school life for a few more years? If you become a corporate slave so early, the Special Ability Division won't refuse to assign you missions just because you are young."
"Even if you and I haven't graduated from junior high school yet, won't we still be assigned tasks?"
"You're right." Sakaguchi Ango said sadly, "I never thought that we would become office workers at such a young age."
Tsushima Shuji: "That's good. Everyone will end up as a corporate slave, so we can save a few years of detours."
Ango Sakaguchi was devastated by the shock.
"I'm back," Amamiya Raisei pushed the door open and saw Sakaguchi Ango slumped on the table. He asked in surprise, "Ango-kun, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I just feel too bored staying like this all day. Didn't we come to Yokohama to go to jail?" Sakaguchi Ango said vaguely.
Amamiya frowned helplessly: "Now there is something to do."
Sakaguchi Ango raised his eyes: "What is it?"
"You will continue the experiment you left unfinished in Tokyo last time," said Amamiya. "Someone will come and take you to the other side of the book."
Sakaguchi Ango opened his mouth wide: "Huh?"
Tsushima Shuji was stunned: "What about me? Will I come too?"
“No,” Amamiya Rei shook his head, “Shuji-kun, you don’t have to go with us. You have other things to do.”
Sakaguchi Ango glanced at Amamiya Ruishou, then looked at Tsushima Shuji who was obviously silent, and scratched his hair in annoyance: "...Is it dangerous?"
"It's not that dangerous - maybe." Amamiya Raisei was also uncertain, "I'm going to take Shuji out to look for clues about the 'book'."
"Isn't this dangerous?" Sakaguchi Ango couldn't help but complain.
But there was no other way, they had to go out. Sakaguchi Ango hesitated for a long time, then followed the people who came to take him away. Amamiya Keisei also took Tsushima Shuji and walked out of the branch.
"Sir," Tsushima Shuji held Amamiya Tessei's hand, "Where are we going?"
Amamiya Raisei said, "We are going to Raibo Street."
"I should have told you before that there was a big explosion in Yokohama three years ago, and then the news about the 'book' spread in Yokohama," the young man explained. "The big explosion created a deep pit in Yokohama, forming the current Raibo Street, which is considered the slums of Yokohama."
Tsushima Shuji: "So the news about the 'book' came from the Raibo Street?"
"Based on the current intelligence, that's right, so that's the primary place to get information. Although it's a little chaotic and dangerous, don't be afraid. I will protect you. Just follow me closely."
Amemiya Ruisei thought that it was a good thing that he had let the system secretly absorb a little more energy when transporting the book pages to Yokohama, which was enough for him to use his supernatural powers on a large scale several times without fainting on the spot. Otherwise, he would not dare to take Tsushima Shuji to Ray Street like this.
As soon as Tsushima Shuji heard what Amamiya Reizo was thinking, he curled his lips, squeezed the young man's palm, and said, "Sir, don't think about using your supernatural powers. When you encounter danger, the first thing you should do is run away, not rush up and kill someone."
"If you get injured and fall unconscious again due to using your powers, I will ignore you for a month."
Amamiya Leisei touched the boy's head and said, "Okay, I will try not to use my powers."
Try your best. Tsushima Shuji snorted in dissatisfaction.
An adult and a child left the branch together and took a car to the outskirts of Raibo Street. Tsushima Shuji stood on the edge of the pit and looked down at the sunken area.
The dilapidated houses are piled up layer by layer, and people in the Laibo Street can be vaguely seen. Some are hiding in the buildings, and some are fighting for a few supplies. Occasionally, a few gunshots can be heard.
Tsushima Shuji's eyes reflected the chaotic area, his eyes were calm and without any wavering. After looking for a while, he raised his head and asked, "Sir, why don't they leave Raibo Street?"
It was also the first time for Amamiya Raisei to come to Raibo Street. He had only heard of it before and was looking at the surrounding environment in confusion. "I think it's easy for Shuji-kun to understand, right? There are some places where you can't just leave if you want to."
The boy's eyes moved, and he looked back into the street.
"Let's go in." Amamiya Leisei protected Tsushima Shuji and walked down the broken stone steps.
When they were standing on the periphery, Amamiya Leisheng had already noticed the peeping eyes in the dark. He glanced at them covertly and it was not difficult to guess that among these eyes, in addition to the people in Leibo Street, there were also people from various forces who were staring at them.
However, as long as they don't jump out to ask for a fight, Amamiya Leisei is too lazy to force them out. The people in Leibo Street are easy to deal with, but those powerful people are difficult to deal with.
Tsushima Shuji also noticed it. He leaned towards Amamiya Raisei and whispered, "Sir, how can we get the information?"
"Go find a small organization operating in Leibo Street, Yang," Amamiya Leisheng said. "Their members are all children, so they are less threatening and more flexible. You can ask them for help."
Tsushima Shuji tilted his head: "Child? Like me?"
"They are about the same age."
Amamiya Ruisei pinched Tsushima Shuji's face and said, "But the kids in Ray Street... can't be underestimated. Shuji-kun should be careful not to be fooled by them."
Tsushima Shuji rubbed his face and said, "I'm not that idiot like Ango."
"Um..." As they were talking, a childish voice trembled and asked, "Are you talking about sheep?"
They both looked over at the same time.
There was a skinny little girl who looked about five or six years old, half hiding behind a building, timidly looking at them. When two pairs of eyes came over, she shrank back in fear, but still said with all her might, "I can take you to find the sheep, but I need something to eat."
Amamiya Reiichi felt his pocket and found that he only had a pack of biscuits. He took it out awkwardly and said, "This is all we have. Is that ok? Or I can give you some money so you can buy something to eat."
The girl slowly walked out from behind the building, quickly ran over and snatched the biscuit from Amamiya Reisei's hand, then went back to the back of the building and ate it with a crunch. After she finished, she slowly spoke: "It's useless for me to take money. It will be snatched away by adults. They need money to buy other things. I just want food, better food, and it won't be taken away after I eat it."
She licked the crumbs off her hands, wiped them on her tattered, thin skirt, and said, "Come with me, I will take you to find the sheep."
Amamiya Keisei and Tsushima Shuji looked at each other and followed.
The girl must have been hungry for a long time and had no strength left, so she walked slowly. She kept going into alleys as if she was hiding from people.
Yu Gong Leisheng glanced at him and asked, "Are you a sheep's child?"
"...I'm not." The girl shook her head. "They are all orphans. I have...a father."
He doesn't look like a serious father at all.
Yu Gong frowned and sighed slightly.
But he couldn't help her, so he could only see if he could buy her some food before leaving.
"We're here." The girl walked for about ten minutes and stopped at a street. "After they collect supplies outside, they will gather here for a short while. You can wait for them here."
She was still a little afraid of people, so she didn't dare to look up at Amamiya Ruishou. After glancing at the neatly dressed Tsushima Shuji, she quickly retracted her gaze and said, "I... I'll leave first."
"Wait," Tsushima Shuji called out, stopping her, "Where do you usually appear?"
The girl stopped walking, turned her back to them, and whispered, "Right, near where you met me just now."
Tsushima Shuji stared at the girl's back and said, "Do you need us to bring you some food later? Your father abuses you. How long have you not eaten?"
"...Two days." The girl replied weakly, but she still shook her head, "Leave as soon as you finish your business. Leibo Street is not a good place. Don't come again."
Without waiting for Tsushima Shuji to continue speaking, she ran away quickly, nimbly slipped into the buildings and disappeared.
"Do you think what she said is true, Shuji?" said Amamiya Rei.
"It must be fake." Tsushima Shuji said decisively, "At least she lied about her identity. She is clearly one of the Sheep, but she said she is not. She brought us here, maybe she wants to rob us."
Amamiya Raisei shrugged, "But at least we'll meet the Sheep, right?"
"You're right. We have achieved our goal in disguise." Tsushima Shuji nodded and looked at the person hiding in the dark. "So come out quickly. No need to hide. We are here to ask Yang to help us with something. We won't do anything weird."
In an instant, a dozen children came out from behind the building. Some of them held guns, and some held knives. They all stared vigilantly at the two people who were surrounded in the middle.
The boy in the lead looked about the same age as Tsushima Shuji. He narrowed his blue eyes and asked, "What are you doing in Raybo Street?"
