I Teach Kendo in Tokyo Chapter 23: Between light and dark


At that moment, Shigeru Ikeda remembered the words of the barber shop manager: "It is very difficult for a prodigal son to turn back. Your past, the causes and effects you have done, will not let you go because you changed your mind.

"They will follow you wherever you go."

Immediately afterwards, Shigeru Ikeda saw the manager looking at him with complicated eyes.

At this time, someone pushed the door into the store.

It's Nange's "banchang" Onishi, a giant man who is 1.9 meters tall - seeing his figure, one can't help but think that the nutritional policies implemented by the Japanese government to increase the height of the whole people are really effective.

The mountain-like Onishi holds a metal bat with blood on it.

A group of guys in Nange uniforms followed Daxi into the convenience store.

"Yo, isn't this A Mao? How did Ming Qinggao's ace chief appear in the counter of the convenience store?" Onishi obviously knew why Ikeda Shigeru was working part-time and pretended to be confused.

Suddenly, he patted his head with the **** bat: "Ah! I get it! You're robbing, right? It must be! Hey, clerk! Get all the money! Don't recognize this! Who is it? This is the little bully who is famous in the entire Geshi District!"

Ikeda Shigeru roared at Onishi: "Onishi! Stop farting!"

"Really? Are you going to tell me that you are working here?" Daxi looked back at his brothers, "Listen, Mingqing's Ah Mao said he was working! Do you believe it?"

"The letter is weird!" An airplane head wearing a shabby "special attack uniform" that he didn't know where he got it said with a grotesque smile, "For the money for a part-time job, you only need to extort a few young masters! That's not right, With Ah Mao's reputation, there are young masters who don't want to extort money and offer money, just to follow you behind you!"

"That's right, who can work part-time!"

"For such a funny thing as part-time work, only people with broken heads will do it!"

Ikeda Shigeru's face was blue, anxiously thinking about how to solve the problem in front of him - how to solve the problem in front of him as a "good person".

Speaking of which, even good people can use force, right?

"Master" - well, it's not a master, isn't that Kiryu and Ma just using force to punish evil and promote good? Just like the real Kamen Rider.

If it's a "Master", he should pull out a wooden knife, crush these bastards, and throw them out one by one, it must be like this!

Ikeda Shigeru came to the conclusion that he started looking for something that could be used as a weapon...

But at this time Mr. Nakagawa rushed out of the staff room and shouted: "I have already called the police! The police will be here soon!"

The store manager gave Mr. Nakagawa a helpless look and said, "I pressed the emergency alarm button when these people came in, and the patrolman should be here soon."

As a large chain store, it is still a storefront in Tokyo. The store is equipped with closed-circuit televisions and one-button alarm devices that are still rare.

Mr. Nakagawa told Shigeru Ikeda about this on the day he joined the company.

But Shigeru Ikeda completely forgot.

Now, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.

——Yes, good people can call the police.

——Being a bad boy for too long, I forgot about this kind of thing.

The bad boys generally have a bad impression of the police, and basically forget that the police have the duty to protect the lives of ordinary people.

As soon as he finished speaking, the bad boy who was outside the convenience store rushed in: "The note is here!"

Oishi was speechless, picked up a pack of tissues from the shelf and tore it open, wiped the blood on the metal bat, and threw the **** paper in front of the injured Asano.

Then two patrol officers on bicycles with headlights arrived. Seeing the situation, the patrol officers walking behind immediately began to call for reinforcements on their walkie-talkies.

The patrolman in front got out of the car, carefully maintaining a distance, pulling out the baton with a rope around his waist with one hand, and pressing the gun on his waist with the other.

"Don't move! Police! Put down your weapons!" The police shouted through the slightly open door of the convenience store.

Onishi stared at Shigeru Ikeda with the same bright smile on his face as when he first came in.

But he didn't say much, as if the current situation didn't require him to say more.

He turns around and raises his bat over his head, like a surrendered soldier: "We're not resisting! We're coming out!"

Then Daxi led a group of Nange's bad boys out of the store.

At this time, Miura came up and said apologetically to Shigeru Ikeda: "We just wanted to come and see your work situation, but we met Onishi and the others halfway, so we had to do this."

Ijiang said indignantly: "This Daxi must have obtained information, he is here to find you!"

Ikeda Shigeru ignored the two former friends and bowed to the store manager: "I'm sorry! I've caused you trouble!"

The store manager looked complicated, pursed his lips and said nothing.

At this time, a police officer came in, maintaining a posture of holding a gun in one hand and holding a baton in the other, and said to the delinquent teenagers in the store: "You guys go out too! Everyone involved in the fight should go to the police station to make a record!"

Miura looked at Shigeru Ikeda, then limped towards the gate with the help of the injured Asano.

Irie glanced meaningfully at Shigeru Ikeda and followed in the footsteps of the two companions.

The police stared at Ikeda and shouted angrily: "And you! Get me out!"

Ikeda Shigeru was a little crazy at this time, and almost shouted at the police officer, but the store manager said, "This is our store clerk. Although he knows the two sides of the fight, he did not participate in the fight. The surveillance over there The whole process was recorded, so I can testify.”

The police officer looked at the surveillance and nodded: "Understood, thank you for your cooperation. Depending on the situation, someone may come to extract surveillance evidence. Please be careful not to delete it."

"Understood." The store manager bowed to the police officer, "You have worked hard."

The officer didn't respond. He glanced at Shigeru Ikeda again with distrust in his eyes.

Then the officer leaves.

Ikeda Shigeru bowed deeply to the manager: "I'm sorry. Also, thank you for your help just now."

The store manager sighed, took out a cigarette case from his pocket to get cigarettes, and saw the no-smoking sign on the wall.

So he said to Mr. Nakagawa: "Nakagawa, come and see the counter for a while, and wipe the blood on the ground by the way."

"Yes." Mr. Nakagawa nodded,

The store manager walked into the staff room~IndoMTL.com~ Ikeda Shigeru felt that he should follow, because the store manager obviously had something to say.

He glanced at Mr. Nakagawa, who gestured to him as if he wanted him to follow.

So Ikeda Shigeru also entered the staff room. He glanced at the staff wardrobe that he had only used for a day. For some reason, a feeling of reluctance surged up.

This reluctance reminds him of what he may face later.

But...maybe the store manager...

With apprehension and expectation, Shigeru Ikeda pushed open the staff door in the staff room at the back of the store.

The store manager is in a standard Asian squatting posture, squatting next to the trash can at the back of the store. The sparks on the cigarettes in his mouth are flickering in the dim lights of the back alley.

"When you came to apply," the store manager said, "I thought maybe that was the case."
