At the construction site of a certain building, Shushu Sen was panting as he poured the construction debris in the cart into the designated pit. Suddenly, a cloud of dust flew up. Caught off guard, he took a deep breath of the dust and coughed repeatedly. He was choked to the point that he almost coughed out his lungs.
Fortunately, a passing workmate handed him a bottle of water in time. He drank half the bottle in one go to survive.
"Thanks!" Tokugawa Sen waved his hand casually. He was about to continue working when his workmate put a hand on his shoulder.
A sloppy middle-aged man who looked similar to Tokugawa Sen whispered into his ear, "Hey, Tokugawa Sen, you actually have a girlfriend. Not bad!"
Tokugawa Sen was speechless. He glanced outside the construction site and looked at him like he was crazy. "What nonsense are you talking about? I already said it has nothing to do with me! "
"You're still denying it? She followed you here early in the morning and has been waiting for you outside. I've been there before. I can't be wrong about the affection in that girl's eyes! "
Tokugawa Sen's mouth twitched. How could a man who had been single for more than ten years pretend to be a love expert? What affectionate gaze … It was obviously a gaze to monitor him!
Unfortunately, the workmate didn't feel Tokugawa Sen's disdain at all. He lowered his voice and laughed wretchedly. "Hey, you're really something. You're a high school student. How did you get her? It doesn't look like the uniform of a high school in town. Ask your girlfriend to introduce her friends to me! "
As soon as he finished speaking, a few more people appeared out of nowhere. They also had the same hooligan face as they pulled him to help.
"Get out of here!" Tokugawa Sen couldn't take it anymore. He pushed away the single dogs around him and walked straight to the girl under the gossipy gazes of the crowd. He asked impatiently, "Hey, young lady, what do you want?"
The muffin made a crisp crunching sound. Reiko looked up and glanced at him. "Can't you tell? I'm afraid you'll run away, so I'm monitoring you! "
F * ck, do you have to be so blunt!
"You're really annoying!" Tokugawa Sen clenched his fists, his face full of resentment. "I already said that I won't run away!"
"Do you think I'll believe you?" Reiko glanced at him. "Do you think you have any credibility with me?"
Tokugawa Sen was stunned. That's right. No one would trust a stranger who looked unreliable! No!
"So, didn't I mortgage Tatara to you?!"
With a sound of "Pa", Lingzi put the Coke in her hand heavily on the steps and looked at him coldly. "So, which reliable person would pawn his son? Is that your son? "
Crack.
It was the sound of a body freezing.
"Hmm …" Reiko understood when she saw his ugly expression. "I had my suspicions before. As expected, Tatara isn't your biological son. So what right do you have to use someone else's son as collateral? "
Tatara wasn't some kind of commodity!
"So what?!" Tokugawa Sen's rough hands gradually clenched. His body trembled, and he suddenly looked up to stare at Reiko in shock. He shouted agitatedly, "So what if he's not your biological son? So what if we're not related by blood? No matter what, Tatara is my most important treasure! "
"…"
Reiko's lips slowly curled up. She joked, "'Most important treasure' … If Tatara heard you say that, he'd be very happy!"
Tokugawa Sen was stunned, and his face turned red. His bruised face was flushed red, and he threatened, "You're not allowed to say this to Tatara!"
Reiko moved her wrist slightly, and the Tai Dao pointed in his direction. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Is this the tone you use to ask for help?"
"!!" Oh no, in a moment of excitement, he forgot that the person in front of him wasn't an ordinary girl! However, he now knew that she couldn't do anything to him. Therefore, the audacious Golden Retriever proudly raised his chin, and with a 'what can you do to me' expression, he retorted, "So what? Hit me if you can!"
Reiko could only look at him as if he was an idiot. She followed his request and punched him in the stomach. Tokugawa Sen's tall body immediately curled up like a shrimp. He clutched his stomach and almost vomited.
"Isn't it good to be alive? Do you have to court death? " Reiko sighed and looked at him condescendingly. She really didn't know how this person managed to survive with Tatara. "It's easy to take you away. I just have to kill you. For Tatara's sake, I'll give you one month. When the time is up, you have to come with me. If you don't cooperate, I'll beat you until you come with me."
She took the time to ask Wu about the time limit today. Naturally, the people in Hell wanted it to be as soon as possible. However, because the flow of time in this world was much slower than in the modern world, a month wouldn't affect anything … Seeing that he wasn't a bad person, and Tatara was so cute (actually, it was because she felt guilty for taking Tokugawa Sen away with her).
After catching his breath, Tokugawa Sen faced Reiko, whose aura was at its peak. Looking at the girl in front of him who looked like the ultimate villain, the tall man shrank back into the giant golden retriever.
Amused by his expression, Reiko didn't make things difficult for him anymore. "I'll be staying at your house for the next month to watch over you. You'd better not test my trust and patience for you."
Tokugawa Sen was so regretful that his intestines were turning green. He really had nothing better to do. That was why he had picked on her. Now, he felt that the last month would definitely not be easy.
Reiko ignored his ugly expression and asked, "What are you going to do later?"
"What else can I do? Of course, I'm going to continue working." Shi Shu Sen replied without even thinking. However, just as he finished speaking, "Gugugu ~" a melodious sound came from his stomach.
"Ha …"
The chuckle made the giant golden retriever's hair stand on end. The red cloud that had just faded burned on his face again, making the already ferocious-looking man look even more ferocious. He didn't have money to buy food, so his stomach was growling like this because he didn't eat for two meals. He was really sorry!
Reiko looked at the giant golden retriever in front of her, who didn't dare to make a sound and only had "I'm complaining in my heart" written all over his face. She shook her head speechlessly and threw the bag of muffins that she had specially bought into his arms.
She had followed him out, so she naturally knew that he hadn't eaten anything today. According to her observation, it was definitely because he didn't have money. Reiko's expression softened when she remembered how Tatara had taken out a large amount of money at the end of the payment at the clinic last night.
When he said that Tatara was his baby, she believed him. Even if he went hungry, he wouldn't mistreat the child. Moreover, he was a child who wasn't related by blood. She also believed that he was a good person. In addition, he didn't run away or pester her. In her opinion, the problem of the souls of the dead wandering in the small world was due to the poor management of hell. Therefore, she was willing to give him a chance within the scope of her control.
"No need to thank me. I bought too much and didn't want to waste it." Without waiting for his response, Reiko finished speaking and turned to leave with the Tai Dao in her hand.
She walked away so casually, as if she wasn't the one who had just said that she would follow him and keep an eye on him.
Shi Shu Sen looked blankly at the muffin in his hand that was emitting a tempting fragrance, then looked at her back that was gradually disappearing. He couldn't help but mutter, "How can you break the rules like this …" How could he hate this?
"Hey, Ten Bunches, hurry up and come back to work!"
"Coming!"
Behind him came the shouts of his workmates. Tokugawa Sen turned his head and responded. Looking at the messy construction site, he became depressed again. There was only one month left. What should he do? In the past few months, he had worked a little harder, and the surrounding casinos had been eyeing him. If he went again, he was afraid that it would be like before, where he would have the life to earn but not the life to spend, and the new one would … Wait! The new one!
Tokugawa Sen stared at the ground, his hands gradually clenched, and the hesitation and worry in his eyes gradually turned into determination.
On the other side, Reiko, who had separated from Tokugawa Sen, left the town and took a car to Kumamoto County.
As expected, in the same location, there was no Ba Yuan, no familiar buildings, no familiar people, and no traces of her existence.
In the face of such a strange hometown, it was impossible to say that she didn't have any feelings.
"What the hell am I doing …"
Reiko's mouth twitched, and her slightly cold palms covered her dry eyes. Fox's Assistance had clearly said that the small world was different from reality. What was she doing here? What was she expecting?
[What's wrong, is she sad? I … What should I do?]
Reiko, who was immersed in a little sadness, suddenly felt Tai Dao's spiritual power become flustered. She tried to calm down, and her slightly red eyes drooped. She asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Tai Dao paused, and then realized that he seemed to be worried about her. Suddenly, the whole Tai Dao felt uncomfortable. He quickly controlled his spiritual power, pretending that the Tai Dao who was worried about her emotions was not him.
"…" Although she was used to this Tai Dao's occasional spasms, Reiko still felt a little helpless. "Forget it!" She was not a girl, and she changed her face all the time.
Just as the Tai Dao heaved a sigh of relief, Reiko, who was about to go back, suddenly reacted. She held the Tai Dao in front of her with a little surprise. "Hey, you weren't worried about me just now, were you?"
Just like every time she guessed (?) His reaction was the same as every time. The Tai Dao in his hand instantly released a strong burst of spiritual power, and then immediately calmed down, as if nothing had happened.
"…"
The slight melancholy in his heart gradually disappeared, and it was replaced by a faint happiness.
Reiko smiled and poked the handle of the Tai Dao with a finger. "I'll take it as a yes!"
【！！！ How can you talk to yourself like this?!]
"Thank you."
She spent a lot of time to understand how happy it was to have someone to accompany and worry for you when you were sad.
When the soft and gentle female voice entered his ears, the little bit of anger in Tai Dao's heart instantly evaporated, and finally calmed down.
"Let's go back."
[… Okay.]
"When we go back, I'll buy a new towel and boil some water for you to wipe. Don't you like it?"
