I am a literary giant in Japan

Meggie quickly immersed herself in the story of Tokyo Man.

He originally thought that the works of these famous writers in the Japanese literary world would be like the texts in textbooks, obscure and full of things that he could not understand.

But this is not the case with Mr. Kitagawa's "Tokyo People".

The story unfolds from the perspective of Keiko Koyama, whose two daughters, Asako and Yumiko, remind Meggie of his two sisters.

Meggie's family is also this kind of reconstituted family, but his mother is not as smart and virtuous as Keiko Koyama, and his father is even more hateful and abominable than Akio Koyama!

“This novel is so interesting!”

Meggie simply sat on the motorcycle, lowered her head and continued to watch "Tokyo People" intently.

"Can you move the things you put on the second floor down?" Akio Koyama, whose cheeks were swollen due to a hangover, suddenly said to Keiko Koyama.

"What?" Hearing this sudden and unexpected sound, Keiko Koyama didn't react for a moment.

The first is May Day, the second is Sunday, the third is the anniversary of the promulgation of the Constitution, and today is Boys' Day, so we have consecutive holidays these days.

But at this time, Akio Oyama, who was just an outpatient doctor in a private hospital, came home very late every day.

Not only that, he was always drunk, and his body was filled with the smell of cheap perfume, and he would hug Jingzi without washing.

As he shook his body, he mumbled the name of his ex-wife, whom he had divorced.

Jingzi endured all these things.

After all, she is a woman who has been married for the third time, and at the age of 45, she has long passed her prime.

She has two children, Kiyo and Asako, and now Yumiko, and for the three of them she has to endure everything.

But now, Akio Koyama actually wants Keiko to mortgage this newly purchased home to raise money for him!

Jingzi bought this house with his life savings!

It was the result of her lifelong hard work, an identity certificate that could prove that she was a "Tokyo citizen"!

"Are you drunk again? This house is the only thing our family can rely on. If we are really desperate, we can rent it out at a good price or use it as a hotel to make ends meet.

If we mortgage it directly for money, where should we live?
Qing, Asako and Yumiko can't keep changing schools with us, right?"

Keiko would never agree to pawn her "Tokyo citizen" identity certificate.

Absolutely not!

“Is it so important to be a Tokyoite?”

Meggie looked at the novel in her hand and could clearly feel Keiko's obsession with becoming a true "Tokyoer" from the lines.

Not only her, but also her two children, Asako and Kiyoshi, as well as Akio and Yumiko who live with her, all have a deep obsession with being "Tokyo people".

However, as time went by, Akio Koyama had already seen through everything and let go of his obsession, no longer insisting on integrating into that circle.

Meggie still remembers that when she was a child, her adoptive father quarreled with her mother every day over whether to buy a commercial house in the suburbs of Tokyo or a big villa in her hometown.

In the end, the adoptive father was unable to convince his mother, and the two invested their life savings into the house.

At that time, he was about to enter junior high school, and his two sisters were about to enter high school.

After the Plaza Accord, the bubble economy era began and house prices continued to rise. He also benefited from these bubbles and became a "Tokyo boy" different from ordinary outsiders.

Unfortunately, the good times are not long.

After the bubble burst, along with the housing prices, their family’s dream of becoming “Tokyo residents” was shattered.

My adoptive father was an alcoholic all day long. During one drunk driving incident, he crashed his car into a dump truck and died instantly.

My mother also became addicted to drugs and went to a drug rehabilitation center, and there was no news of her since then.

Meggie, who is about to go to high school, is not as inspiring as she is portrayed in the TV series.

His two sisters did not work hard to earn money to support his studies, nor did he have the talent to get into college, and his grades were a mess.

In the end, the two sisters ended up in the red-light districts of Tokyo and Osaka respectively.

Meggie met the eldest sister once last year. She should have been at college age, but she looked terribly old and ugly. She opened her hand and asked him for a cigarette.

He hasn't seen his second sister in Osaka for three years. He can't contact her and doesn't want to contact her.

As for himself.

He fought all the way here with a baseball bat and became known as "Angry Meggie".

His goal now is to join the Sumiyoshi-kai and become a true wakashu.

If you must say there are other goals.

He pinched the crumpled movie ticket in his pocket and glanced at Gongzi, who was selling magazines not far away.

“This book is written in a plain way, but it is so real.”

Before she knew it, Meggie, who hadn't read a book properly for many years, had finished reading all the serialized chapters of "Tokyo People"!

He doesn't understand writing style, nor does he know the difference between pure literature and popular literature. In his eyes, novels are the most boring things.

If he has to distinguish between good and bad, he only looks at the feeling and can only tell whether something looks good or not.

As for what is good looking.

In his eyes, the erotic midnight dramas broadcast on TV stations are better than some of the popular national dramas in prime time.

Milky white snowflakes, long legs and all kinds of suggestive movements, isn't that more interesting than lengthy talk about love?

But now.

After watching "Tokyo People", Meggie's definition of "good-looking" changed again.

In the serialized chapters, the plot of Keiko Koyama's family is very simple, with a bunch of trivial family matters and repeated mentions, which finally allowed him to remember all the main characters. He has not read other novels, but he knows that a good novel should not be like this.

Because when I listened to the top students and guys in the literature club chatting in school, all they used were obscure sentences and words.

So Meggie never thought that someone like herself could understand a good novel.

Novels and literary works seemed not to exist for people like him.

but!

"Tokyo People" gave him a very different feeling.

Gongzi, who was seeing off another group of guests not far away, noticed Meggie's situation.

She just casually gave an opened magazine to the young biker, and never thought that someone like him would open it and read it.

At first, Meggie pushed everyone away and opened the magazine by herself. She thought he was deliberately showing off in front of her.

The emotions and desires in the eyes of young people are so clear.

Yumiko, who was used to all kinds of romantic occasions, saw through Meggie's thoughts at a glance.

But she doesn't want to have a romantic relationship.

They sell their bodies for money, and their lives are filled with all kinds of luxury goods and messy entertainment. They are completely different from the bosozoku boys who only have fun but no money.

The people who would hang out with them were spirited young girls, not women like them.

I thought Meggie would just pretend for a while, and if there was no reaction from me, she would stop soon.

But Meggie watched it for nearly half an hour.

He was concentrating all the time, reading each page as if it were really happening.

"Has this guy really finished reading it?" Gongzi curled his lips, becoming more curious and confused.

Meg's actions made her curious about the novel as well.

Because it has the same name as one of the female characters.

However, the Yumiko in the book is innocent, pretty and simple, and her life is completely opposite to hers, which makes her very unhappy.

Therefore, she was too lazy to even flip through the novel.

Now that his curiosity had been aroused, Gongzi couldn't help but tear open a book and started reading.

"Great book! It's truly a great book!"

In a private room of a luxurious izakaya in Kabukicho.

Shigeo Nishiguchi slapped his thighs hard, his shirtless body showing his large tattoos, and he praised the magazine in his hand.

Hiroshi Yamaguchi and Tetsutaro Mori, who had finished their sashimi platters, watched his "performance" with expressionless faces, paying only attention to the expression of Mr. Kitagawa across from them.

Kitagawa Hide smiled and ignored Nishiguchi Shigeo's exaggerated actions.

He picked up a piece of salmon, dipped it in mustard, and put it in his mouth.

The fresh and slightly sweet fish meat mixed with the spicy taste of wasabi instantly whetted his taste buds.

Take a bite of salmon sashimi, then have a sip of Tatenogawa's Hikari sake with a rice polishing ratio of 1%, and pair it with some refreshing side dishes, and you'll enjoy the ultimate Japanese food experience.

Japanese people like to eat cold and raw food, and top Japanese restaurants have taken the pursuit of the taste of these two foods to the extreme.

Although Kitagawa Hide felt that the food tasted just so-so, after seeing a lot of money being spent, he always felt that the taste of the food was indeed improved.

Money is indeed a magical thing.

"Ah, sorry! I hope I didn't disturb your meal, Mr. Kitagawa!"

After venting his emotions, Shigeo Nishiguchi returned to his previous state, even putting his shirt and suit back on.

Of course, he is not really acting without thinking.

The only purpose of him doing these things was to let Teacher Kitagawa see it.

He likes Mr. Beichuan's book and is willing to spend a lot of money and time on it.

For the sake of Mr. Kitagawa, he even did not hesitate to offend various colleagues and lose a large amount of profits in Kabukicho.

These are all sincerity!
"No, no." Kitagawa Hide waved his hand. "To be honest, I really like your personality, President Nishiguchi."

"Ah, that's good, that's good!"

Nishiguchi Shigeo chuckled, poured a glass of sake for Kitagawa Hide, and then took out a pile of information from his briefcase.

"Please take a look! This is the various secret information about the Swedish Arnault Private Club that we have collected as you instructed.

And this is what happened to Shinichiro Tou in prison."

"Thank you." Kitagawa Hide picked up the documents at the back, and the first thing that caught his eye was the photo of Shinichiro Azuma being brutally "opened his anus".

When he wantonly killed those children, I wonder if he ever thought that this day would come.

The "Drunken Rose Saint War" case has also been included in the classic textbooks of the judicial community and has become a benchmark for "juvenile cases."

After him, there are obviously fewer little bastards who use the Juvenile Law to do evil.

It can be said that Shigeo Nishiguchi has done immeasurable merit in this matter.

As for the former.

After learning about the evil deeds of the Arnault couple, Kitagawa Hide finally couldn't bear it anymore and planned to launch a small counterattack.

At this time, Shigeo Nishiguchi's Sumiyoshi-kai, which is spread all over the world, came in handy. (End of this chapter)
