Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

She was pursued because of her gentle personality when she met her child's father.

Watching Narumi Ryou's retreating figure, Narumi Ayako's thoughts drifted far away.

"I'm going out!" *2

The voices of the father and daughter brought Ayako Naruhira back to her senses.

'Really, I'm getting old too.'

Recalling her appearance just now, Ayako Narumi couldn't help but chuckle.

Although I've always taken good care of myself, I'm getting on in years.

Turning around, Ayako Narumi began tidying up the house.

A middle-aged man and a sporty teenage girl in her adolescence.

Neither of them seems like the type to properly tidy their room or do housework.

"Morning."

Upon arriving at the Hikigaya residence, Komachi Hikigaya was already waiting.

The two houses weren't too far apart; they were on the same route to school.

So the two of them don't need to take a special detour when they go to school together in the morning.

Good morning, Ryou.

Komachi Hikigaya looked a little more haggard than usual today.

Looks like I didn't sleep well last night.

The two walked together to the school.

Looking at the thugs loitering on the street opposite the school gate, Narumi frowned subconsciously.

I remember what Senior Luo Zhen said before.

These people were all delinquents who dropped out of school or were expelled due to various disciplinary violations.

After dropping out of school, he didn't work and just wandered around every day, hanging out near the school whenever it was time to go to or from school.

Even though he was expelled from school, he felt like he was really handsome.

They also looked down on people who went to school.

They had neither the intention to climb up and live a good life, nor the courage to fall into depravity and join the yakuza.

My happiest time of day is when I wander around the school gate.

However, the security guards at the entrance of Soubu High School all looked burly and had been tortured and tempered by a certain Sakamoto (just kidding).

Therefore, these people did not have the courage to collect protection money in front of them.

Even eating breakfast requires several people to split the bill.

They were here a few years ago, and they are still here a few years later.

Ignoring these people, Naruhira Ryou pulled Hikigaya Komachi into the school.

“I said, I found a really interesting place yesterday.”

"Shall we go take a look tonight?"

Among the delinquents gathered at the entrance, a guy with dyed red hair excitedly spoke to his companions.

As soon as he said this, the eyes of the people around him immediately turned to him.

Since they have nothing else to do anyway, they are very willing to find ways to have fun.

In horror movies, this kind of person would usually be the first to be sacrificed.

Especially after discovering something that seems interesting.

But they don't seem to have this awareness.

On the other side, Yato, atop a high-rise building, surveyed the city.

The icy blue pupils reflected the bustling crowd on the street.

Even though he was hundreds of meters in the air, he could see everything on the ground clearly.

"Well, I see."

With a gentle tap on his headset, Yato continued to track the lingering scent from the previous night with Kanade.

After sending Komachi Hikigaya home, Yato reported all the information he had gathered to the Chiba base.

Then, with Zouyin in tow, they began their investigation.

But so far there have been no useful clues.

It was as if that guy was deliberately hiding.

But given the chaotic atmosphere, is there really such a thing as reason?

Yato wasn't quite sure either.

Chapter 1148 The First Time I've Ever Wanted to Become the Sound of a Knife

While Yato was on the move, Ryouma was also on the move.

When he sent off the future Sakata Gintoki yesterday, he suddenly felt a strange fluctuation.

The fluctuation felt strangely familiar, but because it was so subtle, I couldn't quite place where I had seen it before.

Looking back, it was probably the Dagon village that Sakamoto encountered when he first went on a mission with Rozen.

I vaguely remember that the village chief was kicked away by Luo Zhen.

That was also Sakamoto's first time fighting as the Queen Bee.

Strictly speaking, this was Sakamoto's first mission.

However, carrying out the mission as an investigator is definitely a later matter.

On that mission, Sakamoto was more of a reserve member accompanying Rozen to experience the atmosphere of the mission.

That's what it means to have a powerful mentor carrying you to success.

The familiar magical fluctuations made Luo Zhen feel somewhat dazed for a moment.

Familiar memories flooded my mind.

It feels like a long time has passed.

"It feels peaceful and serene."

Sakata Gintoki, dressed in truly bizarre attire, wandered aimlessly down the street.

He didn't care at all about the strange looks he received from others.

Normally, Sakata Gintoki should go back to his own past with his future self.

However, due to various reasons, he chose not to go back for the time being and to stay here for a while.

Well, I just wanted to see more of the sights of modern society.

It's definitely not because some old lady has been pressuring me for rent lately.

Damn it, I never said I wouldn't give it to you.

They just said they'd give it to me after we'd collected a million.

That wretched old woman, she doesn't even trust me that much.

I am sad.

I'm not going to pay my rent this month!

I won't give you any next month either!

With this in mind, Sakata Gintoki decided to stay here for a few more days.

As for funding, the Chiba base will reimburse the expenses.

As long as he doesn't gamble on things like horse racing, Sakata Gintoki's daily expenses are actually quite low.

At most, I might play pachinko or buy some limited-edition desserts.

A middle-aged virgin who doesn't follow celebrities, watch anime, or have any special hobbies doesn't even have a place to spend money.

'How peaceful!'

Just as Sakata Gintoki was thinking this, a group of thugs dressed even more extravagantly than him walked past him.

Those colorful hairs were even more dazzling than those of a Super Sentai team.

They could absolutely form a generation of miracles or something.

He deliberately spoke in an exaggerated tone and voice about trivial matters and then burst into exaggerated laughter.

It seemed as if they were deliberately trying to attract the attention of passersby.

Let's go check it out tonight!

"Just don't get scared away."

"How could that be? Hahaha!"

"We'll see when the time comes..."

There will always be idle people like this in any era.

Gintoki Sakata glanced at the group but made no comment.

He just kept eating the dessert in his hand.

Such people are bound to stumble sooner or later, and nothing you say will matter until they actually do.

The best way to keep kids away from playing with fire is to let them actually get burned by a lighter.

Moreover, I, Ah Yin, have no interest in lecturing strangers.

Although due to his own experiences, Sakata Gintoki sometimes has the urge to preach.

But most of them are between friends and family.

He doesn't like that kind of condescending preaching.

Perhaps that's why Sakata Gintoki has so many people around him.

Many women will also develop feelings for him.

Let's take a look at the significance of being named the "Most Desirable Anime Male Protagonist to Marry" for five consecutive years.

After all, nobody likes someone who's condescending and lecturing.

Anyway, Gintoki doesn't really like it.

And so, Sakata Gintoki passed by a group of delinquents who were about to embark on an adventure.

Neither of them showed much interest in the other as they passed by.

They also didn't intend to pay any attention to the other party.

Meanwhile, Ryouma and Yato arrived at the same place.

Luo Zhen came because he sensed the fluctuations in the vicinity.

Yato found this place after a long investigation.

"The sewers, huh, they really do seem like a place that rats would like to go."

Pinching his nose, Yato's expression was rather unpleasant.

On the one hand, this guy was running around like a wild dog, causing a lot of trouble for Yato's investigation.

On the other hand, it's because we might have to crawl through sewers later.

Although Japan has a very advanced drainage system, the interior space, which looks relatively clean, is even large enough for several Kamen Riders to fight.

But those are big cities.

The drainage system in places like Chiba is just so-so.

Not to mention the taste.
