It was very cold, so cold that he could see white mist when he exhaled, and it was also raining.
There were many pedestrians on the streets, probably because it was the weekend … Even if it was raining now.
Men, women, boyfriends and girlfriends … Probably more than ten years ago, he had also been like this, very keen to show off his youth on the streets.
Youth …
Xiong Ye suddenly sighed with emotion.
"Hubby, hubby, are you listening?"
He was actually on his way home from work.
Xiong Ye had been on the phone with his wife the entire time: They mainly talked about trivial things in life. In addition, because of the weather these past few days, his child, who had just started primary school, had some breathing problems.
When he was born, the child had been born with asthma, which he had inherited from his mother.
Although his wife was nagging, so many years had passed, and Xiong Ye had long become accustomed to his wife's nagging … Or rather, if there was a day when he didn't hear it, he would always feel a little unaccustomed.
"How about we go to Hokkaido next month?" Xiong Ye said into the phone, "It's been a long time since we went on a family trip together, right?"
"Do you have any vacations? But if you really want to go to Hokkaido, then you have to prepare well. If it's still too cold then, I'm worried that the child's body won't be able to take it. "
"It's okay, I always feel like we'll get lucky." Xiong Ye smiled, but suddenly stopped in his tracks.
On the other end of the phone, his wife was still talking and nagging non-stop. "… Hubby? You're not listening again? "
"Ah … Sorry, sorry, I saw someone over here." Xiong Ye hurriedly responded to his wife, "Li Zi, I'll call you back later. There's something here."
Xiong Ye quickly turned off the phone and looked somewhere on the side of the road.
It was in front of the door of a snack shop.
The owner of the snack shop might have gone out because the shop's door was closed. At this time, a man was squatting in front of the door.
The man was squatting on the ground, hugging his knees and burying his head between his knees. He was dressed very thinly, and there was a suitcase next to him.
"Are you okay?" Xiong Ye walked over, one hand on his knees, and bent down. At the same time, he held the umbrella in his hand and leaned forward.
He raised his head and opened his eyes slightly, like a person who had been awakened from his sleep.
"Are you okay?" Xiong Ye asked again.
It took a while for the other party to regain his senses. He blinked his eyes and asked, "Uncle, do I know you?"
"… This isn't a question of whether I know him or not, right?" Xiong Ye shook his head, "You're here alone in this kind of weather, and you're wearing so little. You'll more or less be a little curious."
"Ah? It's raining, when did it … "The man looked at the rain in surprise.
Xiong Ye opened his mouth … This guy couldn't have frozen his brain, right?
But at this moment, something rushed out of the man's arms — it was a cat.
The cat came out of the man's clothes and jumped to the ground. Then it quickly rushed to the other side of the road and disappeared.
"Your cat ran away. Is it okay?" Xiong Ye couldn't help but feel strange when he saw that the man had no intention of chasing after it.
"It's not mine." The man shook his head. "I picked her up this morning. She looks like she's about to die. I'll see if I can save her. Oh! She's quite spirited … This is really good! "
"You … you haven't been squatting here since this morning, have you?" Xiong Ye asked in surprise.
"Yeah, is there a problem?" The man looked puzzled.
"Are you an idiot … it's just a cat. Maybe it's even a stray." Xiong Ye couldn't help but frown.
Unexpectedly, the man suddenly stood up and put on a fierce look, scaring Xiong Ye into backing away, "You … what, what do you want to do …"
"You're the idiot! I've already graduated from junior high school! "The man roared loudly.
"Ha …" Xiong Ye was a little caught off guard.
Unexpectedly, the man's roar was so loud that everyone on the street could hear him. In an instant, low, amused laughter came from everywhere.
The man probably still had some sense of shame. Seeing this, he glared fiercely at the crowd – it had to be said that although this man was handsome, his eyes were really scary when he glared like a beast.
The crowd dispersed.
The man snorted coldly and no longer paid attention to Xiong Ye. Instead, he picked up the luggage bag on the ground – at that moment, the man's stomach suddenly rumbled.
The man rubbed his stomach, then reached into his trouser pocket and dug around a few times before taking his hand out. When he opened it up, there were only a few coins left.
The man swallowed, then sighed and stuffed the coins back into the bag. He took a deep breath and prepared to leave.
"Do you want to eat some?"
Suddenly, the man heard Xiong Ye's voice.
He subconsciously looked at the middle-aged man, only to see the middle-aged man pointing at a shop across the road. The middle-aged man then made a drinking gesture and smiled. "If you don't mind, please have a drink with me."
… …
"Hahahaha, running away from home! You're so young, Suzuki! "
It was probably because people at this age began to talk more after a few drinks – the atmosphere in teppanyaki shops was almost always like this.
Xiong Ye already knew that the other person's name was Suzuki. Running away from home because of a quarrel with his family – this kind of thing was actually very common.
"Running away from home. I did this when I was a kid too." Xiong Ye touched the wine glass and said with some nostalgia.
"Uncle, did you try it too?" Suzuki looked up curiously.
Xiong Ye waved his hand and said, "But I went home after a few days … Actually, home is still better."
Suzuki didn't say anything. He just lowered his head and silently ate the third serving of teppanyaki that had just been served, which was still steaming hot.
"So, you don't have anywhere to go now?" Xiong Ye burped and suddenly asked.
Suzuki looked up slightly, shook his head, and lowered his head again to eat in big mouthfuls.
Xiong Ye smiled, "Hey, do you want me to introduce you to a job for the time being?"
"Me?" Suzuki looked up in surprise.
"Didn't you run away from home? Since you ran away from home, that means you really need to be self-reliant. In that case, you can't not look for a job … How about it? I'll be a waiter at a disco bar. I'll give you an hourly wage. Do you want it? "
"I'll do it!" Suzuki nodded vigorously and kept nodding.
… …
… …
The name was Takizawa, and there was a huge sign above his head.
Natsuya Suzuki frowned … This place was much bigger than his home. As for the specific value, he was too lazy to estimate it.
Kenji and Gao Zhi were very 'sensible' and didn't say anything provocative at this time – because the two of them had really been taught a lot by this monstrous man on the way here.
The two of them already had a tacit understanding that they weren't in a hurry to get revenge. No matter how strong this man was, he was just like a child in the Takizawa family.
The two of them weren't real members of the Takizawa family. Only Young Master Feng was – in the Takizawa family, Kenji and Gao Zhi were probably equivalent to servants. Only people with the surname Takizawa had incredible power – power that the outside world didn't know about.
Of course, Kenji and Gao Zhi also had the opportunity to have this kind of power. As long as they were chosen by the Takizawa family to receive a 'baptism' … This was why the two of them were willing to serve Young Master Feng.
"The child is inside?" Natsuya Suzuki frowned at this time.
He had a beast-like intuition – this intuition made him feel uncomfortable just standing in front of this door.
"Yes, the child is inside, in Young Master Feng's courtyard." Gao Zhi sneered, "You'd better hurry up. Otherwise, even if you see it, I'm afraid it'll only be a corpse!"
"En, I'll find a good place to bury the child." Suzuki nodded and said very seriously, "Then I'll let you accompany him by his side. That's letting you off easy."
Gao Zhi and Kenji's expressions suddenly became unsightly … This guy was simply a beast that didn't know how to think!
"If you have the ability, then go in!" Kenji raised his voice and suddenly opened a small side door next to the Takizawa family's main door.
The moment the side door opened, Kenji and Gao Zhi suddenly rushed in. They were so fast that even Suzuki couldn't react in time.
Suzuki stared blankly, then walked in through the side door, but there was no trace of Kenji and Gao Zhi.
"Where are they?" Suzuki frowned.
At this moment, something directly fell towards Natsuya Suzuki from above – it turned out to be a huge net!
Not only that, but there were also several big men holding onto the corners of this big net at the same time.
Even with Natsuya Suzuki's monstrous strength, he couldn't tear this big net apart for a while. On the contrary, several big men were pulling the big net and completely controlling Natsuya Suzuki's movements.
"So, you're really an idiot … Since you have the guts to break into the Takizawa family's house, we'll definitely treat you well."
In the dark, Kenji walked out with a sneer and put on a pair of sharp brass knuckles on his finger.
Natsuya Suzuki suddenly stopped struggling and looked up at the front.
In front of him, there were overlapping buildings, one after another, towering like mountains, and at the top, there was something like a castle.
This Takizawa family's house is really big.
…
…
Deep in the mountains, the Takizawa family was more like a huge village than a home – there were all kinds of buildings wrapped in a huge wall.
The car entered from the outermost gate, and then they had to walk along the mountain road for a while to reach the Takizawa family's main house – the ancient castle on top of the mountains.
Of course, there were already many luxurious buildings on the road.
As expected of an ancient family with a huge influence on the country's politics … Haruko Suzuki coldly looked at the place under the mountain that could be called Takizawa Village.
"Father, are the people living here all from the Takizawa family?" Haruko Suzuki asked curiously at this time.
Yuichi Suzuki said: "Not really. Only a few of the Takizawa family's collateral relatives live here, and the rest are the servants' families. The Takizawa family's rules are very strict, even the direct relatives will be expelled if they don't have enough talent. On the contrary, if there is a talented person in the collateral relatives, they will be promoted to the main family. "
Haruko Suzuki nodded.
Soon after, the car stopped in front of the castle.
It's already very late … it's almost twelve o 'clock.
It seems that I have to postpone my plan to 'see' Natsuya Suzuki tonight and fulfill Haruxin Suzuki's wish … Hakata thought for a while and decided to spend more time tonight to study the details of the Takizawa family.
Because from the moment he entered the mountain gate, he had an uncomfortable feeling … this place was not as simple as it looked.
"Although it's very obscure, there seems to be some kind of cold power in it. Perhaps it's still far from when you and I were at our peak, but now … it's better to be careful. "
In the dark, Lian Zhen's voice suddenly sounded. Haruko Suzuki secretly glanced at his shadow, and then nodded.
At this time, the gate opened, and an old man slowly walked out, followed by two young girls in kimonos.
Yuichi Suzuki whispered in his son's ear: "This is Takizawa Hideo, the butler of the Takizawa family. He can be considered a big shot in the Takizawa family."
Haruko Suzuki nodded, and at the same time, began to spy on Suzuki Hideo — of course, as an ancestor who played with souls, his spying methods were naturally very obscure.
"Welcome, Master Suzuki." The head butler, Suzuki Hideo, smiled at this time, and very humbly bowed.
Yuichi Suzuki also returned a bow, and then said politely: "It's a pleasure to meet you again, Butler Takizawa."
"You're too kind." Takizawa Hideo smiled faintly. Although his hair was white, his body seemed to be quite strong and healthy.
But at this time, a 'clang, clang' sound suddenly came from the foot of the mountain.
Yuichi Suzuki and Haruko Suzuki looked at it curiously … This sound seemed to be like the sound of a night watch.
"Hehe, it's probably some unknown little thief who broke in. It's okay, the guards will take care of it. Don't worry, the two of you. "Takizawa Hideo said very casually.
"Someone actually dares to break in here?" Haruko Suzuki asked curiously.
Takizawa Hideo was not displeased by such a question … It was as if this kind of question was allowed.
Therefore, the head butler of the Takizawa family smiled warmly and said: "There are all kinds of curious people, and among them, there are also some who came with bad intentions. The two clangs just now mean that it's a normal incident, and it will be resolved soon. "
"So that's how it is." 'Suzuki Chun Xin' nodded.
Unexpectedly, just as this conversation finished, three more 'clang, clang, clang' sounds suddenly came from the foot of the mountain!
