Return To 1977 Chapter 805: Identity
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
Compared with these so-called "elites", there is another type of people wandering in a foreign land.
They are children who have never had a good time at home, who are looked down upon and disliked.
But even though I had to be "banned" at home and forced to leave, everything was fine outside.
But in their hearts, they can never let go of the place where they were born and raised, and their identity as Chinese citizens that has never brought them any benefits.
On the same New Year's Eve, in an apartment building in Masano District, Tokyo, "Tangxiner" and "Stretch Out", "Big Eyed Lamp", "Two Head" and "Roller" were sitting around the dining table together Next to him, he sighed silently.
In fact, judging from the two-bedroom and one-living room with complete electrical facilities and the relatively spacious room area, as well as from the shelves full of sashimi, sushi, dumplings, braised pork, sea crab, chicken sukiyaki, beer, junmai rice dishes A sumptuous dinner of Ginjo and Maotai wine proves that their situation is not bad, and their living standard is even far higher than that of an average Japanese family of four.
But what’s surprising is that everyone looks so depressed.
If we observe this scene more carefully, we will find that the focus of the gazes of several people here are all focused on the five "permanent residence status" certificates with their respective photos printed on the table.
However, this scene is probably even more surprising.
Because anyone who really knows Japan knows that this is the identity certificate that countless foreigners who set foot on this land are looking forward to, and the word "special" is added in front of it.
This means that foreigners holding such documents will receive many privileges as usual.
Like ordinary foreigners, they will be deported to their country once they break the law, and they need to check their handprints when entering and leaving Japan. And they don't use any of them.
But since it is such a good thing, why are they unhappy?
The answer finally came out from the words of "Tang Xin'er".
Before she spoke, she bowed to everyone seriously like a Japanese, and then she said apologetically.
"I'm sorry to everyone, this matter was not handled well. However, there are too few of our fellow villagers here, and almost all of them are trainees. With our original status, there is no possibility of obtaining permanent residence. What's more, The word 'special' in the permanent residency is only issued to South Koreans and North Koreans, so...so this is the only way..."
"I know that everyone is unwilling to live as a Korean in Japan, but people here have too much prejudice and rejection of our country. We are in urgent need of an identity that is free from discrimination. So this is the only way, Only in this way can we move to a better place, avoid having to evade the police to check our documents, and not be afraid of being sent back to the country if we fail. Only in this way can I go to the hospital for consultation openly, and can we all go to school, take the driver's license test, and open bank accounts. Account."
"I admit that this is a humiliating thing. Not only you, but I also feel humiliated. But there is really no way. We have no other way to see the light now. In this way, I am here to tell you I promise that as long as I have the opportunity in the future, no matter how much money I spend, I will definitely give you your original identity back to you, even if it means changing it to a Taiwanese or Hong Kong identity, I will never let you. I’m so sorry for this! Please forgive me!”
At this point, "Tang Xin'er" couldn't help but bow again.
The "reach out" took away his ID without saying a word and took the lead in expressing his stance with actions without any preconditions.
After a while, "Big Eyed Lantern" also spoke.
"Girl, don't think too much, it's not your fault. We brothers are willing to accompany you on this road of no return. We also understand your difficulties and the situation we all are in. This is just a step we were forced to take. It's just a way of self-protection. There's nothing you can do about it. But once you find out that you can no longer be a Chinese, and you can't even recognize your ancestors, you can't help but feel very uncomfortable. To put it bluntly, it's necessary. It’s an adjustment process, it’ll be fine once you get over it..."
"Two Head" now also has some energy.
"Yes, yes, you really don't have to blame yourself. It doesn't matter if we talk about it. As long as we still regard ourselves as Chinese, what does it matter what our nominal status is? As long as we don't forget our ancestors. , No one can change our behavior. In your words, you can still find a way to change it in the future. To put it another way, it doesn’t matter if you can’t change it. It’s a matter of heart anyway. Come on, as long as one of you can help me in the end and throw my bones and dregs into the soil of the capital, there will be nothing left for me..."
And just when "Roller" was about to express his position, an unexpected situation suddenly happened.
I heard a commotion outside, and then there was a rude and rude knock on the door.
"Tang Xin'er" and the others immediately knew that the person coming was evil, and with a look at each other, they were on guard.
"Reach out" and "Second Head" each took out a pistol from under the cabinet next to them and hid it under the table.
"Reach" also grabbed the knife on the table, while "Roller" quickly collected the five documents on his body.
At this moment, "Tang Xin'er" put on a mask, picked up a folded "Xiang Luopa" beside her, answered in Japanese, walked over and opened the door.
Sure enough, the building manager led two policemen at the door looking for trouble.
"Half an hour ago, it was you who went downstairs to throw away the garbage! You people are so shameless, you don't even know how to sort the garbage. The administrator said that you have ruined a good house. He hopes you leave immediately! ”
"Hey, pack your things quickly, I'll give you an hour, don't waste time!"
The two uniformed Japanese police officers were arrogant and gave unreasonable orders without scruples while looking at the people in the room again and again.
"Tang Xin'er" immediately understood what happened.
Japan has always had the most stringent collection system in the world when it comes to civilian waste.
For example, resource plastics must be washed, dried, and put into designated translucent or transparent bags where the contents can be clearly seen.
Use white plastic bags for combustible garbage and red plastic bags for non-burnable garbage.
Burnable garbage remains at the designated location from Monday to Thursday, while non-burnable garbage cannot be thrown out until the first Wednesday and third Wednesday of each month.
Empty iron cans and empty aluminum cans should also be separated, as should beer cans and juice cans.
The most troublesome thing is large furniture and electrical appliances. You have to call to make an appointment first, and then confirm the price and pay the workers before they can be disposed of.
In addition, relevant laws and regulations also stipulate that in addition to huge fines, those who pick up garbage without permission or litter will be punished with imprisonment ranging from several months to a year.
This often makes people who are new to Japan lament that throwing things is more difficult than picking them up.
As for a few of them, they also have the same problem. Although they have been in Japan for a long time, they are still not used to it. A single oversight will cause problems.
So it’s only been less than a month since I moved here, and I’ve already been taught a lesson by the administrator here several times.
I think today there was another problem with the garbage just now. The administrator thought it was causing trouble for him, so he called the police angrily.
Of course, it is not entirely because their Japanese is not standard and they look like foreigners at first glance.
Otherwise, this trivial matter should not be worth bringing to this level.
But what if you live under someone else’s roof? It is better to build good relationships with others and calm down people when troubles arise, so as not to cause more trouble.
So "Tang Xin'er" politely apologized. Promise to move out as soon as possible.
I just said that today is their traditional festival, and I hope the administrator can give them a few days of grace at their discretion so that they can find a new place to live.
Unexpectedly, the administrator turned his nostrils into the sky and refused to give up, insisting that they move out immediately.
As soon as he persisted, the two policemen were no longer polite and began to check their identities.
"Are you foreigners? Taiwanese, Hong Kongers, Filipinos? Do you have the qualifications to stay? Please bring out the certificates..."
"By the way, why are you always wearing a mask? Take it off..."
Most Japanese police officers have this kind of moral character. They have strong prejudice against foreigners and have an arrogant and arrogant attitude.
If they don't agree with each other, they almost do whatever they want, and it's the same this time.
But there are always exceptions, and soon they were shocked.
This was not only because the gunshot wound on "Tang Xin'er's" face was really scary, but they also did not expect that the five people in the house were all "permanent residents" with "special" powers.
So in this way, things have changed subtly.
"Oh, you are all Koreans in Japan." A policeman sighed and turned to the administrator, "Hey, what's going on? Didn't you say that all the people living here are Chinese trainees or Taiwanese? People? ”
Another policeman also started to complain, "You are serious too. Are you too ignorant? Koreans also celebrate the Spring Festival. Let's take a look at their dinner. Do trainees and Taiwanese have such financial capabilities?"
Unexpectedly, the administrator felt that he was in the wrong because of this. Not only did he no longer force them to move, but he also changed his face to a smiling face.
In the end, as long as they ensure that garbage classification is serious and don't cause him any more trouble, forget it.
However, even though this conflict was relatively smoothly and peacefully resolved, people like "Tang Xin'er" actually felt even more aggrieved and ashamed.
Just after the police and administrators left for a while, everyone couldn't help but started to curse.
"What a fool! You really look down on others!"
"Fucking little Japanese, they are all cheap, I dare you to say that Korea is your ancestor!"
"Little devils, you are all the gray grandsons of eighteen generations of Chinese people!"
Only "Tang Xin'er" was relatively calm and did not join them in howling wildly and tunelessly.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, it was actual revenge.
"It's normal to have evil fire in your heart, but scolding alone can't relieve it. Simply, I suggest that after this New Year's Eve dinner, we all go for a walk in Ginza. Even buying his sixty-six items, he also bought some Japanese items. People want to have some fun. Who told them to have a New Year's Eve and make us unhappy? No one can think about it..."
Now, everyone is in the mood. Each raised his glass.
"Yes, support! Give them some color. We men are not vegetarians."
"Hey, good advice. The Japanese police are too idle and want to do anything. I really don't like it."
"Gunzi, if you can 'kill' ten 'skins' today, my brother will give you a lucky gift of 100,000 yen tomorrow."
"Oh, it's too easy. The Japanese are too stupid. They only know that thieves are burglars. I picked up all the wallets on the street..."
Finally, the five wine glasses clinked together, and heroic words emerged spontaneously.
"Cheers! Bomb Tokyo!"
