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

It seems to be called light novel, a genre that has become popular in recent years. It is a commercial product that uses ease of reading as its selling point, and uses exquisite color pages and illustrations to attract people's attention.

Yukinoshita Yukino stood in front of the bookstore for a long time.

Chapter 3: Blur

"Hmm, hmm, hmm~" Humming a song called "Distant Sky" that does not exist in this world, his schoolbag sliding loosely around his waist, Uesugi Genshin was still in a good mood.

Except that the temperature has not risen yet, the temperature in spring is not very high. Instead, people can feel a coolness in the early morning, but spring is finally here.

What are we eating today?

Curry? A simple and easy cream stew? Or maybe a hearty grilled hamburger?

He had never understood why people here loved curry so much, and why it even appeared repeatedly in anime. The reason was simply because it was convenient.

The benefits of finishing school early and living alone are fully demonstrated here.

There is no need to cook more dishes because you can’t finish them all. A large dish can be eaten for two or three days, which also reduces the cooking time. Even if you remove the cooking time, there will be plenty of time left in the day.

He has enough time to not need to stay up late. He has always believed that staying up late is because modern young people are so busy with work and study during the day that the quiet and peaceful night is the only time in the day that truly belongs to them. However, they are always greedy and want to have more time for themselves, so staying up late becomes something they have to do.

"welcome."

Uesugi Genshin walked into a convenience store and bought some spicy curry and a box of eggs.

I flipped through the newly-released Jump issues on the shelf, picked up the latest issue, and wanted to leave.

My attention was caught by the eye-catching photo magazine again. Well, let me make some judgments.

Even this world is not full of handsome men and beautiful women. If you look closely, you can still see the differences and flaws. Not all good-looking ones are flawlessly beautiful.

Although I have forgotten some of it, I still remember the bias of the author who wrote "Hikigaya Hachiman's Youth Romantic Story There is a Problem with Yarn and Hammer" in the first life. He compared the heroine Yukinoshita Yukino to a school beauty and a stunning beauty, and gave her the evaluation of "unique", while the second heroine Yuigahama Yui is the girl next door that can be seen everywhere, and she looks very beautiful when she dresses up.

There is no such thing as party struggle. The author has made it clear at the beginning that the girl next door is not Cinderella.

He was flipping through the pages quietly, and at the same time the sound of pages turning could be heard.

He raised his head and looked to the side, and saw a girl from Sobu High School.

With long blonde hair, slightly sharp eyes and a slender figure, she is a girl who can be described as a "beauty".

Yumiko Miura is the top student in Hachiman's class, and one of the top girls in the class and even in the school.

Her Majesty the Queen was flipping through a fashion magazine, talking about the latest popular styles of clothing.

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

Noticing Uesugi Genshin's gaze, she looked up at him.

"..." Perhaps because they were wearing the same Sobu High School uniform, the other party didn't seem particularly indifferent. The two of them nodded in response, and Miura Yumiko lowered her head and flipped through the magazine in her hand again.

"......" Hopefully he wasn't discovered, Uesugi Genshin closed the book silently and took a look at the slightly revealing cover. Fortunately, the other side facing Miura Yumiko was blocked by the comic in his hand.

He closed the magazine completely...without putting it back on the shelf, Uesugi Genshin took it and went straight to the counter to pay.

"3360 dollars."

"Give."

"Thank you for your patronage."

He took the bag and smelled someone behind him. He looked back and saw that she was also planning to leave. Uesugi Genshin ignored her and turned to walk outside.

Finally bought it.

Most girls in Tokyo will talk about this kind of topics when chatting. Only those who keep up with the trend can take the initiative in the conversation. Ah... Chiba is also considered to be in the Tokyo metropolitan area.

Japanese girls will not let you see their absolute area. He had heard this a long time ago, because you can't see it at all. It's impossible.

This has always been the popular fashion among Japanese girls. Ninety-nine percent of Japanese JKs will wear calf socks or short socks, and will never wear long socks like knee-high socks or black stockings.

The black over-the-knee socks with white edges worn by Yukinoshita Yukino are an alternative outfit that goes against the trend and makes her stand out in the class.

Yuigahama Yui and Miura Yumiko are typical Tokyo girls, both wearing ordinary calf socks.

Although I've gotten used to seeing it after so long, the calf socks that highlight the graceful calf curves and the entire exposed white thighs are also worthy of praise.

But not every Tokyo girl has nice legs.

Ah...so he still wants to say that he is taller than me!

Carrying the bag, I got off the subway and was finally almost home. I just had to walk a little further and enter the residential area, and the road gradually became narrower.

The surrounding high-rise buildings gradually disappeared, and the single-family houses unique to Japan appeared within sight, but the apartment he lived in was five stories high.

It was probably a little after 4 o'clock. Thinking of this, I took out my cell phone from my pocket and looked at the time on the screen.

A hint of orange began to appear in the distance of the sky, and the light became increasingly slanted.

Passing by a woman walking towards him, Uesugi Genshin slightly turned sideways to make way for her and walked a dozen steps.

There was a sharp sound of sudden brakes.

"Bang." It seemed like it hit something.

What?! A car accident?

He looked back and saw bloodstains clearly on the wall, as if a whole bucket of paint had been poured on it.

I thought he was going to travel to another world again!

The dead are the greatest, Uesugi Genshin quickly stopped his disrespectful thoughts.

It would be too ridiculous to travel through time again in this way. Live with a sword, die with a sword! This was his principle in his previous life.

I don't want to sound bad, but with the amount of bleeding and the force of the impact, it's probably really over.

He silently chanted "Namo" in his heart and stopped where he was, not knowing whether to leave or not. He looked around. It was not yet time to get off work and there was no one around.

The thought that he might need help made him want to go forward, but the thought that he didn't want to get into trouble made him stop.

After a long while, the driver in the car opened the door in a panic, fell directly to the ground, and then stood up staggeringly. It seemed that nothing serious happened.

He realized something and hurried to the front of the car. Looking at the woman he had hit, he hurriedly shouted, "Hey! Are you okay?"

He didn't dare to help her up for fear of worsening her injuries. He reached into his trouser pocket with trembling hands and took out his cell phone. He was shaking so much that he couldn't even dial the number correctly.

Before he finished beating her, the woman on the ground seemed to moan.

"what......"

Then he stood up in a strange posture, stiff and twisted.

When she got up, both the driver and Uesugi Genshin in the distance gasped.

The picture is too scary.

This woman's head is broken!

The angle of the car accident was wrong or something, the head of the woman who stood up was tilted at an exaggerated angle. The white of her eyes was clearly visible even from a distance.

The woman staggered away, and her broken throat seemed to make some sounds.

"Ahhhhh!!!" the driver screamed in horror.

He had collapsed on the ground, with water stains all over the floor. At this moment, he was no longer the man who worked hard for his family, but rather a frightened wretch.

But even Uesugi Genshin was frightened and at a loss, not because of the miserable state of the "corpse".

But I’m afraid of ghosts!

The woman took strange steps and acted like a freak, constantly forcing the driver to crawl backwards while sitting with his hands supporting him.

He took a few steps and fell to the ground...

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

I don't know when I got home. I found myself sitting on the sofa, clutching my hair tightly with both hands.

The scene that happened not long ago was still floating in front of his eyes, and he did not take a step forward at that time.

He is now unsure whether this world is a normal world. It’s not that he doesn’t want to question whether this world is abnormal or not, because he himself is the biggest anomaly!

A time traveler cannot be explained by modern science, but his existence proves that there may be something in his world.

But the previous few worlds were all very normal worlds, and the major events were consistent with the history he was familiar with. The smaller details were uncertain. After all, the history books that recorded history were also written by people. Who knew whether there was any truth in the unofficial history? Is the official history really correct?

Although this world is somewhat different, it is basically the same and has also entered a peaceful modern era.

The result was the scene before our eyes!

It was like the freshly peeled bullfrog legs still sizzling on the chopping board.

He leaned on the sofa with his head tilted back, his arms resting on his head, blocking some of the glaring light from the ceiling, and looked a little dazed.

Chapter 4: Nothing Happens

Are there monsters in this world?

Logically speaking, if you travel back to Japan, there is a possibility that there will be monsters. For example, Tokyo is the territory of the monster Nura: The West Warriors, Inu Daisho, and so on.

But after thinking about it, he always had a suspicion that this world might not be as normal as it seemed on the surface, and there might be some kind of other world, with ghouls and crows in Tokyo.

His daily life had made him gradually put this idea behind him, until he suddenly remembered it today.

At the same time, another sentence came to mind.

Magic can only be defeated with magic.

He had seen the famine scene in Xia Pi where people were cannibalizing each other after the flood, and he had also seen the looted villages in Jerusalem that seemed to be filled with wandering ghosts.

He is afraid of ghosts, but he is afraid that he cannot kill them!

What if physical salvation is not possible and magic is really necessary?

I don't know whether the great righteousness passed down from the great Eastern country will be of any use.

The previous scene really cannot be said to be a last hurrah or a struggle before death, and the man was not a bullfrog.

There won’t be the frog legs left to be marinated, without the upper body, and it will still be alive and kicking in the pot.

There is no point in thinking too much. You have missed it and there is no way to distinguish the truth from the false. What's more, it is not completely safe when approaching the devil.

He quickly took off his clothes and threw them into the washing machine along with the school sportswear in his bag to wash away the dirt.

I walked into the bathroom naked, turned on the shower head, and the water sprayed on my body. The water droplets slid down along the lines, and bursts of mist rose in the room.

After washing off the bad luck on his body, he sat on the sofa again wearing a loose T-shirt and beach pants.

Uesugi Genshin grabbed the remote control on the table with his right hand and turned on the TV to see if there was any relevant news.

"Ah, about this matter, since 2008..." Talking about economics.

“Hahahahahahaha…” That canned-like silly laugh is what people do in variety shows.

"Why? Why not me?" The lead actress controlled her expression very well and cried like a beauty. This was a sad drama.

"I will never let my..." As for anime, now is the time for children, and the really "good-looking" ones are all in the late night slot.

The world remains the same as usual, without any change.

"Ah~, there might be flu recently, please be careful, but it's nothing serious."

At this time, the mobile phone on the coffee table started playing a pipa tune, and someone was calling.

"Hello, Kasumi Shiko?"

"Yeah." A very polite female voice came from the other side.

"Calling, what's the matter?"

"From your tone, you don't sound very happy, Chengjun?" The tall girl with long black hair and a white headband on the other end of the phone frowned slightly and shook her legs subconsciously, looking a little annoyed.

At home, she wore a purple nightgown with black edges, the hem of which was short to her plump thighs, and a red shawl on her upper body.

"No, something happened today." Perhaps because he was not in the mood, his tone became much lower.

"...Are you okay? No, you don't look okay either." Even though she was usually a bit sharp-tongued due to their familiarity, she softened her tone a little at this time. This was a way of expressing concern that she would rarely use under normal circumstances.

Even if you are a good friend, you will confide in each other when you are sad, but most of the time you should avoid conveying overly negative emotions to the other person, because the other person is not a trash can.

But it still feels good to have someone comfort you when you are panicking.
