A youth story of a passerby at the end of the world

Chapter 279: Giving you a gun is trust

"Goodbye then." After saying that, Arisu Sakayanagi gently closed the door.

Horikita Suzune stared at the door for a few seconds, then turned around and walked back.

Press the elevator button and wait quietly for the elevator to rise.

At this time, the phone rang. She took out her cell phone and saw that it was Ichinose calling.

"Hey, what's wrong with Ichinose-san?"

"Ah, Horikita-san. Um, something seems to have happened downstairs."

She was not very clear about what Ichinose mentioned. Horikita Suzune moved away from the elevator, leaned against the outer wall and looked down. "I saw it."

"Well, it seems to have something to do with Horikita-san. I'll cook today's meal. You can go back first."

Since lunch was taken care of by Ichinose, she just needed to go back to the dormitory. Sakura was still in the dormitory, so she didn't need to take the key. She could just ring the doorbell and the door would open.

"I understand." Just accept her kindness at this time.

but......

She looked towards the floor below and saw a person also lying there looking down, with short brown hair, a person she was very familiar with.

"......" The other party heard the sound of her making a phone call, looked up, and the two of them looked at each other.

Although she didn't know what was hidden in the other person's cold eyes, she was the same as usual.

She originally thought that she would feel resentment in her heart, but now she feels that there is nothing to worry about.

I am already moving forward, while Kushida is still stuck in the past.

A "ding" sound reminded her that the elevator had arrived.

Horikita Suzune withdrew her gaze, walked into the elevator, and pressed the button for the girls' dormitory. As the elevator slowly rose, she reached out to the hair on her shoulders and twisted the ends of her hair.

This is because my brother said he liked long hair.

"Do you want to cut it short?" After all, short hair is more convenient for fighting.

I don't know if he likes long hair or short hair...

Do not!

She slapped her face with both hands. If she wanted to make a change, she had to make her own decision.

Cutting your hair short is your own decision and your own determination.

The elevator opened as she came out of her confusion, and she walked out, walking along the corridor until she arrived in front of Ichinose's dormitory door.

Just then, at the end of the corridor, she caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of her eye. Horikita Suzune looked closely and saw that it was Kushida Kikyo.

Did you catch up?

"I'm planning to leave." Horikita Suzune said as she watched the other person approaching, but she saw that there seemed to be some problem with Kushida's steps.

"Then it seems that the man kept his promise." At that time he said that he would find a way to take Horikita away, but now it seems meaningless.

Kushida Kikyo said with resentment: "Thanks to you, everything I have here is ruined."

Relationships or reputation or even...

"Is that what you think?" Horikita Suzune looked at her calmly, "I didn't recognize you from the beginning. It was you who tried to do that yesterday."

Looking at Kushida's unchanged eyes, Horikita Suzune turned her head away calmly, no longer looking at her, "You still haven't changed your mind. We shouldn't be enemies."

"Heh~" Kushida Kikyo sneered, "Do you want me to believe you? Did you do that to those people downstairs?"

"How is that possible? You overestimate me." Horikita Suzune shook her head. How could she possibly command people from another class?

"That's your brother."

"It's up to your imagination."

"..." This is the biggest possibility, so Kushida Kikyo said this. After seeing Horikita's indifferent expression, she couldn't see anything.

She had met Horikita Manabu when the school started, and he had temporarily taken over the school a month ago in the name of the student union. It was not impossible that such a person would instigate such an act of revenge.

"You can't stay here any longer." Horikita Suzune said suddenly.

"What do you want to say?" Kushida Kikyo didn't think she was being provocative.

"I'm asking you if you want to follow me." Horikita Suzune made her proposal.

"!" Kushida Kikyo widened her eyes in surprise, "What did you say? Do you mean you want me to be your follower?"

"Why not. At least in terms of controlling the sense of distance between people and communication skills, you are far superior to others and me, and this is also a fact." This is Horikita Suzune's own consideration. She believes that turning enemies into friends is a correct and mature method, and if the other party is really forced into a desperate situation, it will cause trouble for her brother.

So she suggested, "Why don't you consider starting over somewhere else?"

"Let's not talk about Class D for now, what about the other classes? Everyone knows about me now. They all remember me, and most of them are planning to leave." Kushida Kikyo was scared after all. The most terrifying thing was that she had offended the leader here, Horikita Manabu.

"At least people from Class D basically won't go there, so don't think too highly of yourself. It may not be possible for everyone to accept you, but as long as you are strong enough and can stand at a high position, then others will have to accept it." Her belief that only when she is strong can she be strong has not changed. Horikita Suzune smiled and said, "And if someone refuses to trust you, I will come forward to help."

"Do you think I will simply believe your sweet words? How do I know you won't betray me?"

"It's okay if you doubt me. I'll listen to your complaints then." Horikita Suzune said condescendingly.

In the final analysis, Kushida-san, who has already failed once at this point in time, has nothing to be afraid of.

Whether she can stand up again depends entirely on her own judgment.

Kushida Kikyo closed her eyes and fell into silence.

She was mumbling something, maybe cursing or maybe talking to herself, but Horikita Suzune couldn't understand.

After a long time, she opened her eyes as if she had come to a conclusion.

"I understand. I will obey you, but it's for my own sake, not for you or anyone else. Is that all right?"

"Of course, I have no complaints. All you have to do is produce results." Horikita Suzune walked towards Kushida and extended her left hand to her.

"Shaking hands with the left hand seems to have a hostile connotation." Kushida Kikyo did not extend her hand.

In Islamic countries and a few Western countries, the left hand seems to be considered an "unclean hand" and extending the left hand means an insult.

"Then should I shake the right hand?"

"Forget it, this is the best way." Kushida Kikyo said, and shook her left hand as well.

The two palms touched only for a moment and then quickly separated.

"Come to think of it, can you influence that man's decision?" Taking her away meant that Horikita had to make a request to him.

"This is my business. I will go talk to Uesugi." Horikita Suzune felt that he was the type who was very easy to talk to, as long as it was not a big deal.

Now she had some idea why he didn't choose Kushida-san at that time. This was a bomb that could destroy the surroundings at any time, but now that the bomb had been detonated, it no longer posed a threat.

In this case, it doesn't matter whether Kushida-san stays or leaves.

Horikita Suzune vaguely felt that she had mastered the trick, how to think and act like her brother, Uesugi.

"Uesugi?" Kushida Kikyo looked at her silently, "You..., forget it."

She no longer wanted to talk and turned away in the opposite direction.

Watching Kushida-san disappear around the corner, Horikita Suzune sighed and reached out to press the doorbell.

At this time, the door opened by itself. It was the person inside who opened the door.

"Welcome back, Horikita-san." Sakura Airi stuck out half of her face and said. Although she was shy, she had become familiar with Horikita and was not as scared as before.

"Well, I'm back." Horikita Suzune smiled gently.

-----------------

"How are you going to get there?"

As they drove into Ota Ward, Uesugi Genshin parked the car in Jonan Island, which is just across the sea from Haneda Airport.

In response to Yukinoshita's question, Uesugi Genshin took out a folded map and raised it to the middle. The three people in the back seat also stood up and came over. He told her the news he had heard from Horikita Manabu, "Haneda Airport is 4 kilometers long, and the wide side has three bridges and two undersea tunnels connecting it to Ota City."

Because it is an irregular polygon, it can be roughly regarded as a trapezoid.

"One of the undersea tunnels has been blown down. It's useless and will affect defense. One is a folding bridge, which is usually folded up and cannot be used. So there are only two roads that can be used."

"Then do you want to go over there and take a look?" Masumi Kamuro asked, pointing at the nearest Metropolitan Expressway No. 1.

"People have been restricted from entering since half a month ago. Will the situation get better now?" Yukinoshita Yukino expressed her doubts.

"..." There was no rebuttal, because Kamuro Masumi also felt that he could not have any expectations of the Self-Defense Forces. After being deceived once, he became alert.

"So, senior, you want to swim over there?" Tianze Yixia immediately guessed the way to get over there.

"Well, with four kilometers of coastline and one person every 50 meters, there would be 800 people. But in reality, there are far too many people, especially on our side. Because the sea between the other side and Kawasaki City is only 500 meters, and you can swim across with the naked eye, so the manpower will be focused on, not to mention that the part close to Ota District also needs manpower, and the number of Self-Defense Forces on the island is probably only two to three thousand."

He didn't know whether there had been any additional information since then, this was at best just previous intelligence.

"Then do we have to go there at night?" Yukinoshita Yukino asked after thinking for a while, because the sea at night is pitch black and even if people are swimming, they can't see anything unless there is a searchlight.

"If it rains in the afternoon, then there's no need to do that." Uesugi Genshin moved his eyes away from the map and looked outside the car through the gap between the windshield and the steel plate. The sky was covered with dark clouds and the thick clouds made it look like it was going to rain soon.

All the supplies of the Self-Defense Forces on Narashino's side were left at the garrison. They only took away some guns and bullets. Raincoats and other things were probably not enough.

Yesterday's rain has not yet stopped, but today the wind is blowing, and the temperature has dropped to a level. It is already May and the temperature has risen, but now it has suddenly returned to the starting point.

Except for Tianze, everyone present wore at least two pieces of clothing on their upper body. It seemed that Tianze's clothes were a little thin.

"Yes, that's true." Yukinoshita Yukino nodded. If it rained, they couldn't stand guard in the rain, especially on this side which was not a high priority.

"Then do we want to eat first? I'm so hungry." Fenghua Guilongyuan, who had been silent all the time, said the first thing she wanted to do was to have lunch.

"Indeed, this is also a very important matter." Uesugi Genshin nodded and agreed to the other party's request, then took back the map.

"Hey! Is there any lunch left? Great!!!" Tianze Yixia cheered cutely, "What should we eat?"

"Would you like some canned food?" Uesugi Genshin asked the three people in the back seat.

"Sure." "No problem." "Totally OK."

After getting the answer, he got out of the car, opened the trunk, pushed a military box to the side, and then took out the stored food.

"Isn't this cold?" After getting the can, Amasawa Ichika pouted and complained about the imperfect lunch.

"If you are willing to go to the park to collect firewood, I can make a fire and heat it up." Uesugi Genshin shrugged and said.

"I think it's okay." Tianze Yixia looked around.

"Yeah." Kamuro Masumi also tried her best not to eat cold food. The fat in the can of ginger roasted pork in her hand must have solidified into lumps.

"Hmph~" Guilongyuan Fenghua raised the corner of her mouth, "Then you go."

"Hmm..., ha, okay, Senior Guilongyuan will just stay in the car." Tianze Yixia sighed softly, and then looked at Kamuro, "Senior Kamuro, let's go."

On the way in the car, they had already introduced themselves to each other, and it was basically Tianze who initiated the conversation.

After they came back from picking up dry branches, Uesugi Genshin started a fire on the stone bricks. This was more convenient as they didn't have to worry about the risk of fire on the green space.

After heating the cans by the fire, they ate their lunch in a hurry because rain had already begun to fall from the sky.

When a drop of rain fell on the back of Uesugi Genshin's hand, he knew that the time had come.

"You guys wait in the car." Uesugi Genshin took off his long sword and put it in the car, because it was too conspicuous to carry with him, and the wakizashi around his waist would be enough.

"Eh? Senior, are you going alone? The wall on the coast is quite high. How about I follow you?"

"Are you sure?" Uesugi Genshin looked at Tianze who nodded, "And do you have any weapons with you?"

"No." A straightforward answer.

"Ha." So Uesugi Genshin took out the revolver from the glove box and handed it to the other party.

"Senior, do you trust me so much?" Carefully taking the police revolver, Ichika Amasawa looked at Genshin Uesugi and asked in confusion.

These words made Yukinoshita Yukino alert. She already knew that the other party was a dangerous person, and these words seemed to point this out.

"Yes." Uesugi Genshin nodded, "I think you can attract more attention than me. If you attract the attention of someone with a gun, please use this gun to shoot them."

The people holding guns are referring to the Self-Defense Forces. Who knows what they are like now.

The behavior at the Higher Education School has confirmed part of the other party's attitude.

No one knows the limitations of swords better than he does. No matter how powerful a sword is, it cannot beat modern firearms. For example, the sword masters of ancient times all used spears when they went to the battlefield. According to historical records, Miyamoto Musashi even worked as a cannon ashigaru. That's why he tried every possible means to get a gun.

"Oh, then I won't let you down, senior." Tian Ze Yi Xia raised her little hand to her forehead and promised.
