"Because you are a good person. If it were Banno Tenjuro, he would never have let me let go to escape. Even if he knew he was going to die, Banno Tenjuro would have made me die with him. So you are a good person. You not only saved me, but you also don't want me to die. So I want to save you too."
"Wow, this is the only answer I didn't expect."
Upon hearing this answer, Gensou froze for a moment, then couldn't help but shake his head with a laugh. His overly straightforward nature made him unsure how to continue the conversation, so he once again tried to change the subject:
"Next, we need to find you a place to stay as soon as possible. You can't keep sleeping in the park; you'll get sick if you stay there too long."
"how about you?"
Hiroi Masakō noticed the loophole in Genji's words and hurriedly pressed for an answer. Genji, however, gently tapped his chest and chuckled as he softly said:
"Of course we should investigate. We need to find out what brought me here. If it's some big bad guy, we have to get rid of him as soon as possible."
"I can help you! I...I'm very strong!!"
Hiroi Masakura hurriedly patted his chest and said, while Gengo smiled and shook his head, replying softly:
"Many things cannot be solved by strength, just like not all the people who help you are good people."
"Naiyuan Township, are you a bad person?"
"Forehead......"
Seeing Hiroi Masakura's curious gaze, Gengo, who had been choked up, couldn't help but chuckle again and said softly:
"I don't know if I'm a good person or a bad person, but at least I don't have any bad intentions towards you, you can believe me on that."
"Yes! I believe in Yuanxiang!"
Looking at Hiroi Mazo's innocent smile, Gengo smiled first, then looked up at the sky, his expression becoming quite subtle.
"Um, um....."
At that moment, Hiroi Masazō suddenly spoke, his tone revealing an undisguised guilty conscience. He swung his left foot, his coat draped over it, and, with his neck hunched, he whispered:
“It was torn there, so I used it to wrap it up. Don’t be angry.”
"It's alright, it's just a piece of clothing. In comparison, let's quickly find a way to treat your wound. It would be troublesome if it got infected."
"No need, no need!!"
Hearing Gengo's suggestion, Hiroi Shinzo quickly waved his hand and said hastily:
"No bleeding, no bleeding, just a torn shoe, no need to bandage it."
"Oh, I remember there was a used clothing recycling point when I came here. If you don't mind, let's go there and see if there's anything you can wear."
"Okay, okay, as long as it's wearable, it's fine."
Hiroi Masakura nodded in agreement and then, dragging his left foot, followed Gengo toward the waste clothing recycling point.
Soon, they found a suitable replacement. Yuanxiang pointed to a nearby alley and said:
"Let's go inside to change, so the patrolling police won't misunderstand and think we're scouting the place like thieves."
"Uh-huh."
Hearing this, Hiroi Shinzo nodded repeatedly and walked into the alley. After discovering that Gengo hadn't followed, he breathed a sigh of relief, unfastened the jacket on his left leg, revealing his silver mechanical limb. When he stopped Gengo from flying backward, this part of the camouflage layer was damaged, and he needed some time to repair it. And judging from Gengo's expression, he probably hadn't noticed this. That's good. In this way, in Gengo's eyes, he was still 'human'.
"Wow!!!"
"Monster!!!"
? ! ? !
The sudden sound startled Hiroi Masakō, who immediately hid behind a trash can in fear. However, after realizing that the 'monster' wasn't calling him, he hurriedly stepped out to look for Genji.
But when he arrived on the street, he saw that Gensou had already grabbed a crowbar and rushed forward, entangled with the monster, and was holding his own.
Is this a coin monster?
Gengo ducked away from the monster's claws, puzzled. He then slid down and thrust a crowbar into the monster's body. He pulled it out forcefully, but what flew out was not flesh and blood, but more coins, leaving Gengo bewildered.
"A handsome man, a handsome man, I want to take this handsome man home..."
? !
Damn, they're coming for me?
Hearing the monster's whispers and its fixed gaze, Genji was speechless for a moment. Then, he precisely used the sharp end of the crowbar to cut off the tongue that was trying to bind him, and then smashed the crowbar into the monster's skull. To be honest, this monster was just scary-looking. You could even skip the transformation if you fought it. I just don't know who created it.
“Yuanxiang...”
"You've changed your clothes? Let's leave now. I have a feeling this isn't a good place. Let's go."
Gengo picked up two coins, intending to study them carefully later, and then hurriedly left with Hiroi Masakura. After they left, a black-haired man rushed over on a motorcycle and was dumbfounded when he saw the coins scattered all over the ground.
"Hey, Eiji, Yummy's (the Devouring Monster) has stopped reacting. Did it escape...? Hmm?"
Behind the black-haired man, a blond youth also hurriedly arrived on a motorcycle. However, the blond man's right hand was quite strange, with five fingers like bird claws and bright red and green bird-shaped wings on his arm. At this moment, the two looked at the pile of coins, exchanged a silent glance, and then began to investigate who had killed the monster.
Meanwhile, Gengo was leading Hiroi Masakura to find a suitable place to stay. To be honest, Hiroi Masakura was not stupid at all. He knew what he needed to know, and he could understand the key points of what he didn't know after a little learning.
But... he's like a child, as if he's never been exposed to society.
Gengo looked at Hiroi Shinzo, who was happily waving his kendama, and pinched his brow with a headache. This meant he would have to spend far more time on him.
"Wait, where did you get this?"
At that moment, Gengo suddenly realized something was wrong, quickly grabbed Hiroi Shinzo's wrist, and said with a slight frown:
“I don’t remember you having this on you before.”
"I took it just now when I was helping someone carry something."
Hiroi Masakura and Gengo said confidently:
"I helped him, so isn't it only right that I get paid?"
"
Gengo held up a finger and looked seriously at Hiroi Masazō, saying:
"
"If that's the case, then why help others at all?"
Although Gengo's expression made Hiroi Mazo shrink back uncomfortably, he still protested in bewilderment:
"If you put in the effort but get nothing in return, then such a thankless task has no value, right?"
"...If you truly want to help others, when you help them," Gengo tapped his chest, looking at Hiroi Masakura with a smile, "you've already received your reward here. With this reward, whether others thank you or not is irrelevant. Trust me, this is based on my experience, there won't be any problems."
"Um...do we really have to go?"
Hiroi Masakura nodded. Although he didn't understand what Gengo meant, he trusted Gengo. However, when he saw Gengo pulling him back, he still reluctantly whispered:
"That kind of thing should be called shameful, it's a bad thing."
"No, Zhen Zang, that's not shameful, that's called bravery."
Gengo stopped and looked at Hiroi Masakura, saying softly:
"Don't be afraid to face your mistakes. People grow by making mistakes. Others may not point them out to you, but you must understand them yourself. Of course, admitting mistakes is far more complicated than I've described, but at least for now, you should experience what it feels like to make a mistake and learn from it."
After speaking, Gengo's serious expression softened. He gently patted Hiroi Shinzo's shoulder and said with a smile:
"But don't demonize this too much. At least I'm still by your side, sharing the burden with you. No matter what happens, as long as you have companions by your side, it's not impossible to solve the problem."
"Companions? I agree with that!"
Hiroi Masazō looked at Genji thoughtfully, then smiled and nodded vigorously. He followed Genji back calmly. The feeling of apologizing had indeed made Hiroi Masazō feel uncomfortable; his face felt like it was on fire.
But I have to admit that after apologizing, the heavy feeling in my heart from being told by Gengo that I had done something wrong disappeared, and I walked with a light step. Is this... what it feels like to be human?
Meanwhile, Gengo, standing to the side, continued to pinch his brow, looking exhausted. How to put it? The saying "human nature is inherently good" still applies to Hiroi Shinzo.
However, the pressure on Gengo from his seemingly blank mind was growing. There are many great principles in this world, but it is not so simple to explain them clearly. There are no unified answers to these things. He himself does not understand some of them, so how can he guide others? Moreover, when Gengo noticed that Hiroi Shinzo was imitating him intentionally or unintentionally, it made Gengo's pressure even greater.
To be honest, judging by my age, I'm a child too!
Yuanxiang sighed and shook the bag in his hand. The things inside were gifts from the stall owner. As for why he went to apologize and received a gift from the owner, that was a different story.
Gengo looked at Hiroi Masazou, who appeared to be an adult, then at himself in the mirror, and covered his forehead. He was afraid he was being treated like a child taking care of a mentally unstable elder.
"Yuanxiang, why do you think so?"
"Um?!"
Suddenly, Hiroi Masakō stopped and turned to look at Genji, saying earnestly:
"You're a good person, that stall owner is a good person, and the old lady who helped you just now is also a good person. Since there are so many good people, why did I have to run into Banno Tenjuro?"
"It can only be said to be fate."
Yuanxiang thought it over carefully and finally gave up on those sweet words to coax children, saying frankly:
"Things like one's birth, no matter how much you try to embellish them, are ultimately a matter of luck. Some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouth, while others may be abandoned at birth. This is something we cannot change. However, Makoto, we are also very lucky."
Yuanxiang clenched his fist and said firmly:
"At least we've lived to this point, to the point where we can choose what we want to become in the future. We can't forget the suffering of the past, but the key is that we can't let the past bind our future. Zhenzang, the future is our most precious treasure!"
"Yuanxiang... huh?!"
Just as Hiroi Shinzo was about to say something, a suddenly lit light screen caught his attention, and Gengo quickly shielded it behind him. Although the light screen looked a lot like Kadoya Tsukasa's laser curtain, it was definitely not the same thing. If Gengo remembered correctly, there was also this thing in the previous spatial rift!
119 ghosto天寺尊
'call.......'
A mysterious light screen lit up, followed by an eerie wind that seemed to blow from the underworld, sending chills down one's spine. The surrounding light seemed to dim as a result. Gengo pushed Hiroi Shinzo aside and stood alone in front of the light screen, waiting for the guest on the other side.
But even as the light screen began to dissipate, no one came over. However, this did not mean that nothing had happened. Gengo silently gripped the 'Joker' and watched as the surrounding stalls were overturned by an invisible force, and cracks appeared on the ground, as if someone was fighting.
Is it invisible?
Yuanxiang slowly pulled out the crowbar from his lower back, concentrating on sensing the surrounding atmosphere. He then silently rejected the guess in his mind. He couldn't feel his heartbeat or breathing. Although he was in poor condition, he shouldn't have made such a mistake.
Is it some kind of special ability?
Sensing the strange air currents around him, Genji suddenly remembered the 'illusion' memory monster he had dealt with before. That monster could achieve invisibility and transfer hatred by interfering with people's perception. At that time, he couldn't find his whereabouts for a long time. In the end, he was forced to take a hit before he was able to locate him and eliminate him.
But it doesn't have to be that complicated now.
Gengo lowered his gaze, sensing an unusual aura coming from his left rear, aimed at him. Without hesitation, Gengo stepped back, bent down, and swung the crowbar backward. But a very subtle feeling came from the back of his hand, as if his hand had passed through a thick fog, without any sense of hitting anything.
