Rebirth from Conan

Chapter 14 Burn! Childhood!

"The tuition is 15,000 yen a month. There are six classes a week, from 7pm to 10pm, and we have one day off on Sunday."

At the karate gym, a coach introduced the gym to Nakatsuru Hirota after he paid the fee.

"Okay." Nakatsuru Hirota nodded.

"Then if there is no problem, you can come here to measure the size first. After the uniform is customized in two days, the child can come to class."

It's not uncommon to see four-year-old children practicing karate in this place.

Especially in the science universe, karate can be regarded as the number one martial arts system.

Putting aside Mao Lilan, the most representative character Kyogoku Makoto can break a stone pillar with one punch, catch BB bullets with bare hands, dodge rifle bullets at close range, and lift a car with brute force...

Xia Hexin said that if he could really train to the level of Kyogoku Makoto, he would not be able to defeat the gangster from yesterday, even if there were a hundred more of them, he would not be at all vulnerable.

[You have completed the "Karate Apprentice" mission, Strength +1]

[Unlock the follow-up task: Burn! Childhood! (1/3)]

[Complete all the sudden attack skills training to trigger the subsequent tasks again]

【当前进度：前突（0/10000）、里突（0/10000）、合突（0/10000）、里拳打（0/10000）、手刀打（0/10000）、前肘当（0/10000）、拳锤打（0/10000）】

Xia He: "???"

what?
So many actions?
And each movement has to be done ten thousand times?

Looking at the dense numbers appearing in the system, Xia He suddenly felt unwell.

"Young master, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Nakatsuru Hirota noticed Xia He's expression and asked curiously.

"Happy, happy." Xia He forced a smile that was uglier than crying.

After completing this task, there are even two follow-up tasks...

Just thinking about it makes me happy (sarcastic tone).

"Uncle, I see you seem to be very good at fighting, what did you do before?"

"I used to practice karate as well," Nakatsuru Hirota replied.

"Then why don't you continue practicing?"

“…Life is a necessity.”

I see. Practicing karate won’t make you enough to eat, and you still can’t make as much money as being a bodyguard, right?

Xia He reached out and patted Nakatsuru Hirota's knee with a sympathetic look on his face.

By the time he finished taking the measurements and walked back home, Sakuni Ikki had already parked his car outside the yard and ran into the house in a hurry.

"Xia He, are you okay, Xia He?"

"Wang!"

In the living room, before the father could go forward to hug his son, Rouwan had already rushed to Xia He, rolling around and starting to rub against Xia He's trouser legs.

"Rouwan, long time no see. Did you miss me?" Xia He caressed Rouwan happily.

"Wang Wang!"

Meatballs rubbed even more happily under Xia He's touch.

Sakuni Kazuki stood by the sofa, watching his son playing happily with the dog, and his originally anxious heart immediately relaxed a lot.

"But how did this kidnapping happen?" he muttered to himself.

"Mr. Sakurano, this is what happened..." Nakatsuru Hirota began to narrate what happened.

After a while.

Snapped!
Sakuni Kazuki slapped the coffee table, and he was so angry that the veins on his forehead were about to burst.

"Damn you, bastard, how dare you set your sights on my son..."

It’s all because you and mom forced me to wear women’s clothes.

Xia He complained in his heart.

"How about I call your mother and ask her to fly back?" Jiu Niang Ikki thought about it and said with some concern.

"No need." Xia He shook his head. "With Uncle Zhonghe here, nothing will happen."

"Indeed, with Kunita here, ordinary criminals are no match for him." Hearing what Xia He said, the father nodded in approval, "Kunta, you must protect my son well. Haruna and I only have this one child. If anything happens to him, we might..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Sakuni, because of your kindness to me, I will definitely protect the young master even if it costs me my own life." Nakatsuru Hirota sincerely assured Sakuni Ikki. Xia He: "?"

Yo, is there a story?
Xia He blinked, and immediately imagined in his mind the scene where Nakatsuru Hirota was fighting in an underground karate ring, which led to his enemies hunting him down, and finally his father stepped in to help him solve the problem.

But on second thought...

Does my father have the ability to help people resolve their enemies?
Almost done.

"Xiahe, Dad is taking a break today. I'll take you and Kunta out for a nice meal later. Oh, and let's bring Shinichi along too. After dinner, we can go to the amusement park. What do you think?"

"it is good."

……

Two days later

Karate gym.

Looking at the little girl of the same age in front of him who was posing in a weird posture and staring at him with a fierce look, Xia He twitched his lips and didn't know what to say for a moment.

No, you want me to play an exhibition match with others as soon as I get here?

And the opponent is such a young girl...

How can I do this?

"Wow, what a cute kid."

"Especially the little boy on the left, he's so handsome!"

"Don't spit up milk while fighting later, okay?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

The kind laughter of parents could be heard outside the venue.

"ready, go!"

"Hey!"

The little girl shouted in a very childish voice, then closed her eyes and rushed directly towards Xia He.

Seeing this, Xia He took a step back.

next second.

"Wow!"

The little girl fell forward to the ground and began to cry loudly.

Xia He was completely confused.

He thought to himself that he didn't seem to have done anything just now...

Is this the legendary "scam"?
"Jiunio Xia He wins!" The referee waved his hand to announce the result.

"I told you, this is how it will end."

"Look at the embarrassed expression on that little boy's face. It makes me laugh to death!"

Many parents covered their mouths and chuckled again.

But Xia He, who was standing in the middle of the venue, couldn't smile at all.

Somehow, he always felt like he was playing house with someone...

But think about it carefully, a child who has just turned four years old, whose body has not even begun to develop, what can you teach him?
The reason why those parents come to sign up is simply to cultivate their children's interests and hobbies in advance, and let the coaches in the venue help them look after their children.

Under the guidance of the referee, Xia He walked forward and bowed to the still sobbing little girl. Then he ran to the side alone and began to practice the movements that Uncle Zhonghe taught him last night.

Stand up straight and quickly throw two punches forward as you take a step forward.

[Current progress: Forward (3144/10000)]

He tested it yesterday and found that he can complete nearly thirty punches per minute on average.

So without eating, drinking, or going to the bathroom, it would take about five and a half hours to complete one of these movements.

Thinking of this, Xia He gritted his teeth.

Let it burn!
My childhood!
