My youth story cannot be a knight war

Facing the director's puzzled gaze, Kousaka, who had maintained this expression for almost a day, twitched his eyes, and then forced a twisted smile from the corners of his almost frozen mouth.

"Sorry, my facial muscles seem a little stiff right now... Can you give me a warm towel?"

……

"Thank you for your strong support for the Metropolitan Police Department's work over the past month, Kosaka-kun!"

The fat police officer sitting across the table, wearing a round hat and a brown windbreaker, spoke with gratitude.

"It's okay, Officer Megure, this is what I should do..."

Kousaka was sitting on the other side of the table. He was still wearing the black windbreaker. He held a hot towel in one hand and covered his face, where the muscles were still a little stiff, and spoke in a vague voice.

"Um, Officer Megure, um... can I go back now? After all, I've been on vacation for over a month, and I've fallen behind in my studies..."

"No problem, we will send someone to escort you back to Chiba Prefecture, Kousaka-kun, and we will also give you something."

The fat policeman known as Inspector Megure nodded and said, then reached into his windbreaker pocket and took out an envelope. He placed it on the table and solemnly held it with both hands before handing it to Kousaka across from him.

"This is your entire compensation for this month's internship, Kousaka-kun. This card holds a total of 10 billion yen. The password is on the back of the card. Please keep it safe!"

Kousaka, who had just picked up the envelope across the table, felt his hand tremble violently after hearing this, and almost threw the envelope worth ten billion back onto the table.

"Isn't this too much?"

Looking in disbelief at the envelope in his hand that contained a bank card with a balance of 1 billion yen, Kousaka, who had never seen so much money before, felt dizzy for a moment when he heard that this small envelope contained a huge amount of money that his entire family could not spend in a lifetime.

He looked at Inspector Megure who had a solemn expression across from him and said in a panic.

"I just treated this as an ordinary poster shoot. I'm already very grateful that you're willing to reimburse my food and accommodation for the past month. There's really no need to pay so much..."

"No! This is what you deserve, Kosaka-kun. After all, you really helped our Metropolitan Police Department a lot. In fact, some people in the upper echelons think it's too little."

Shaking his hand, he politely declined Kousaka's attempt to hand the envelope back, and then Inspector Megure suppressed the slight envy in his eyes and said.

"Kousaka-kun, you underestimate your current popularity. With your help in endorsing the Metropolitan Police Department, the pressure on their urgently needed staff will definitely be greatly alleviated. So compared to what you bring to the Metropolitan Police Department, this little money is nothing."

After saying this, Inspector Megure took another careful look at Kyosuke Kousaka, who was standing across the table. Apart from his age, his overall appearance was very close to the "Mr. Kousaka" in everyone's impression and memory, and spoke with a slightly admiring expression.

"After all, being able to become a comrade with a future hero is something many young people dream of. Spending a billion on this ad is well worth it!"

"Really? That's great, hahaha..."

After hearing this, Kousaka could only laugh stiffly and put the envelope into his pocket.

Although he felt a little unhappy about the Metropolitan Police Department using people who actually did not belong to them to advertise, Takasaka could understand the reason why the Metropolitan Police Department did so, because the Metropolitan Police Department was so urgently short of manpower.

Since the "Future Vision Event" that affected the entire world more than four months ago, the entire world has undergone tremendous changes compared to before. Historians have even proposed at an international summit that the two periods before and after this should be divided into the "pre-future era" and the "post-future era."

Because the changes that incident brought to the world were so huge, involving changes in all aspects of all fields, it has definitely affected the future development of human society as a whole.

Other aspects are too far away from Kousaka, and he doesn't want to know. There are only two changes that he can come into contact with and understand in his daily life.

For example, the first point is that all universities in the country are now preparing to open a new type of archaeological discipline called "Super Ancient Studies", and a school has already completed the implementation of this discipline, that is, Jonan University, which is now the second most famous university in the education field, and is the university where Yukinoshita Yukino will graduate and teach in the future.

However, unlike the future scholar who is recognized as the best in the super ancient discipline, she is still a sophomore in high school and has not yet reached the standard for graduation and university. Therefore, although Johnan University, which has already completed the discipline, hopes that this future discipline leader who is confirmed to be the most talented in the future can graduate early and study at the school, Sobu High School where she studies is unwilling to let her go.

Even the principal of Sobu High School, after receiving the request from Jonan University, directly cursed at the negotiating staff on the video call without giving any face, making the other party sweat profusely. However, after knowing that the first goal had failed, the negotiating staff, who were still working, had to withstand the pressure and tactfully make a second request to the principal of Sobu High School, who was still angry, saying that he wanted to make a concession.

Then they directly named Zaimokuza Yoshiki.

This time, the principal of Sobu High School didn't even bother to curse. With a sullen face, he turned off the phone and blocked the number permanently. According to rumors, he seemed to have taken his men and rode a Leap Pursuit 2000 replica motorcycle all the way from Chiba Prefecture to the home of the president of Jonan University, and then the two sides started a passionate educational battle.

As for who will win or lose between the two principals, both over 50 years old, that is a mystery that no one knows.

And according to Yukinoshita Yukino herself, that is:

"That's the responsibility of my future self. My current responsibility is to learn and take good care of my members. I'll leave the future to my future self."

Therefore, Chengnan University had to give up its idea. However, this subject is now just an empty shell. All the research data about the ultra-ancient times were restored by researchers based on their previous memories, and there are still many problems that need to be solved.

However, the only known place for collecting evidence, the ruins in Kurogatake in Nagano Prefecture, has now become an absolute forbidden area.

Not only has the entire mountain been blocked off by a large number of troops from various countries, but a military base has even been built around it to accommodate soldiers from various countries. Basically, not even a mosquito can fly in. It is under 24-hour surveillance to ensure that no one can touch even an inch of the land on the mountain.

After knowing that there were monsters sleeping in the ruins that could send the whole world to hell when they woke up, no sane national leader would just leave it alone. All of them dispatched their country's most elite troops to guard there. Now, Nagano City, which is closest to the ruins, is simply a miniature international community, and there may be more foreigners than locals.

Of course, Japan protested against this matter, but it was ignored by the entire international community. For the second time in history, all countries in the world reached an unprecedented proposal to station troops in a country, except for annihilating a diplomatic mad dog.

Even the most respected father in Japan did not say a word about this matter. After all, he had many sons in the world, and there was no need to offend the entire world, including his other sons, for the sake of one son.

Therefore, the Japanese government, knowing that nothing could be done, could only lie down and let it go. They could only be thankful that this time the garrison did not need to be funded by their own government as in the past, and they could also earn extra money.

This is the whole situation of the first point, and the second point is about the Metropolitan Police Department.

After the incident, police officers across Japan experienced an unprecedented wave of resignations in the post-war period, especially at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department headquarters. Within a month, about three-quarters of the original police officers chose to resign and flee with their families.

For a time, the number of active police officers in Japan plummeted. After all, everyone in the world now knows how terrifying and dangerous it is to be a police officer in Japan, especially in Tokyo. It is more dangerous than being a drug enforcement officer in Mexico and being the president of a country with a military base. Tokyo police is now recognized as the most dangerous profession in the world, without a doubt.

The resignation of a large number of police officers has resulted in an extreme shortage of manpower. The newly appointed Superintendent of Police has become so worried about this that his hair has turned white. Even if he tries every possible way to provide various benefits to retain staff, the effect is minimal. After all, no matter how many benefits there are, they cannot compare to others valuing their own lives more than that.

Just when the number of patrol officers was critically short, someone offered the Metropolitan Commissioner an idea that might be feasible, and that idea was Kyosuke Kosaka.

By advertising for the Metropolitan Police Department through this now-well-known future hero, and leveraging his fame and idol effect, they are attracting those who currently admire him to increase the number of staff for the Metropolitan Police Department.

Although this approach would certainly cause many problems in the future, the Chief Superintendent of Police, who was now extremely anxious, could not find any other feasible solution and immediately decided to approve this proposal.

This time, the Metropolitan Police Department fully utilized and learned the recruitment spirit of its own Self-Defense Forces. After inviting Kyosuke Kosaka from Chiba Prefecture, they invited various well-known design masters and film shooting teams from all over the world to ensure that they could shoot the most luxurious recruitment advertisement in the world's history.

After knowing that they would soon have the opportunity to work with the world-famous hero Kyosuke Kosaka, these masters all said frankly that they did not need any compensation from the Metropolitan Police Department. They also brought their own food and flew to Japan from all corners of the world. This saved them a lot of extra money and also gave the Metropolitan Police Department a deeper understanding of Kosaka's current popularity. They all felt that this method might really be feasible.

During this period of time, Kousaka has been arranged to undergo various body trainings every day by the world's top model masters. All his clothes are tailor-made by professionals, and his food is carefully arranged. They are determined to make him the hero that everyone has in mind.

After nearly a month of this kind of life, the filming finally officially began, and the filming lineup was extremely luxurious. The army, navy, and air force were on call at any time, and all the famous people in the political and police circles were in the background. Among all the stars in the world, only the actor nicknamed Big Brother and the late Michael Jackson could enjoy such support for filming.

Basically, Takasaka shot as many posters and recruitment advertisements in different styles as there were well-known film crews present. He changed the costumes of countries all over the world, and the documentary he shot lasted ten hours in total.

The number of people decreased one by one, and all the famous figures left contentedly with Kosaka's autograph and their own photos after completing their respective tasks. What Kosaka saw and heard during this period also gave him a lot of knowledge, and even his state of mind had made great progress.

You have to know that when Takasaka was first invited, he was so nervous that he couldn't even speak steadily after seeing a room full of well-known directors and screenwriters in the global entertainment industry and bigwigs he rarely saw coming up to him to greet and talk. But now he is completely accustomed to this kind of big scene and can talk calmly with all the bigwigs.

When this change was reflected in him, many people increasingly felt that Kousaka was beginning to move closer to "Mr. Kousaka". Even when he was wandering around the Metropolitan Police Department during his break, many people were shocked when they accidentally saw him, thinking they were still dreaming and had not woken up.

There were even some people who appeared in that future story and fought alongside the future Kyosuke Kousaka in the Metropolitan Police Department. When they saw him, they panicked so much that they subconsciously shouted out the shocking words "Mr. Kousaka! Has Gurongi appeared?!", which eventually caused quite a commotion.

What put him under the greatest pressure was that one day when Kosaka was using the restroom, he received a mysterious note from a high-ranking official of the Metropolitan Police Department who happened to be passing by. When he opened it, it said "Dear Kosaka-kun, the Kotobuki family greets you..."

The reason why the second half of the sentence was missing was because Kousaka, sweating profusely, threw the note into the toilet and flushed it away before he finished reading it. At that time, he felt for the first time how his future self would feel when he was pursued for marriage by the Kotobuki family.

The word "fuck" wasn't enough to describe it. Just how horny was the Kotobuki family for him?! The Kotobuki princess, whom he had never met in real life, was probably still an elementary school student by now!

Recalling his experiences during this period, Kousaka felt speechless. As a minor, he was forced to start having alternative contact with the complex adult world. This might be the negative effect of fame.

"By the way, Kousaka-kun."

At this moment, as if remembering something else, Officer Megure bent down, picked up a plastic bag from the side of the chair, and handed it to Kousaka.

"What is this?"

Looking at the plastic bag, Kousaka asked Officer Megure in confusion.

"This is a package sent to you, Kosaka-kun. It came from Chiba Prefecture. Sorry, we opened it and checked it for safety reasons."

Officer Megure said to Kousaka with some apology and said with a smile.

"Please accept this. This is a birthday gift from your best friend to you, Kosaka-kun."

"good friend?"

The moment he heard this, a figure immediately appeared in Kousaka's mind.

It’s nothing special. Now when people mention “Kousaka Kyosuke’s best friend”, the whole world will think of that person.

As he expected, after opening the plastic bag, Kousaka saw what was inside.

This is a brand new, limited edition model packaged in a plastic box, and even Kousaka's own face is printed on the surface of the box.

Kosaka knew what this was. It was a G1 system limited edition CSM belt produced by Bandai Namco, a well-known domestic toy manufacturer. Except for the inability to truly transform, it had all the other functions of the G1 system. It even imitated the overall color-changing function of the original when activating the G1 form.

There are only 1,000 of these belts sold worldwide, and they have been sold at sky-high prices despite being in short supply. Now the price in the second-hand market is even more staggering.

Kosaka happened to have one, and since he was the one who sold the authorization of his portrait to them, the other party gave Kosaka's first completed product free of charge as a token of gratitude.

As a giant toy manufacturer, they have predicted that the future development of the toy industry will be swept by the transformation belt series. After all, after seeing the heroes actually appear in front of them, everyone hopes that they can have a transformation belt that all heroes have.

There was a note on the box:

Happy birthday, Mr. Kosaka~! ?????????)?.

"Really, that idiot..."

Although there was no name written on it, Kousaka already knew who sent it.

Even though he said this, perhaps even Kousaka himself didn't realize that the corners of his mouth had unconsciously curled up slightly.

"As expected, you two do have a very good relationship."

Looking at Kousaka's expression, Inspector Megure smiled knowingly and said.

"It's not much better, actually. After all, we've only known each other for less than half a year... But I may now understand how my future self views that guy."

Rolling his eyes, Kousaka put the belt back into the plastic bag and paused before continuing.

"Finding a second partner or something... I guess that's only something that was mentioned in the commercials."

"Hmm? What did you say, Kousaka-kun?"

He spoke in a very low voice, and Officer Megure, who didn't hear clearly, looked at Kousaka in confusion.

"No, just a little complaint."

Smiling, Kousaka picked up the plastic bag and stood up.

"Officer Megure, would you like to go to dinner with me? It's my treat this time."

"Eh? That's not good. After all, as your elder, asking you to treat me is really..."

"It's okay. Just consider it as my respect for my senior before I start working here. After all, I've been relying on you, Officer Megure, to take care of me these days at the Metropolitan Police Department."

"Is that so? Thank you for your help, Kousaka-kun! Hahahaha..."

……

The two of them walked towards the exit of the Metropolitan Police Department, chatting and laughing. People they met on the way cast surprised glances at them, but most of the glances focused on Inspector Megure were out of envy, envious of the fact that he could have such a good relationship with the famous person like Kyosuke Kousaka.

Feeling the gazes of the people around him and the weight of the plastic bag in his right hand, Kousaka suddenly realized something.

Maybe... this is the kind of life my future self will be looking forward to after all this is over?

Unfortunately, the corner of life he hoped for already had a gap that could never be filled, but it was different for him.

"Whoo~"

Everything he had witnessed flashed through his mind again and again. After comparing it with the current state of the world he was in, Kousaka, who walked into the elevator with Inspector Megure, suddenly let out a long breath and spoke with a leisurely and comfortable expression.

"Peace... is wonderful~"

……

3. Variations of Daily Life

"Whoo~"

He reached out and pulled off the human skin mask on his face, revealing a pure and beautiful cold face. Then he untied the golden curly wig on his head, and a waterfall of long straight black hair fell down from his head, passing over the cheek with an almost perfect curve in profile.

This is not the end yet. With a somewhat shameful look in her eyes, she reached out her hand and gently pressed on the center of her left chest. The plump and firm front armor immediately shrank like a balloon punctured by a silver needle. One could even faintly hear a similar "puff~" sound.

After this whole process, in less than ten seconds, the overall image of "Yumiko Miura", who originally had a hot body and a proud temperament, turned 180 degrees, and she became a girl with long straight black hair and a cold and beautiful temperament.

Looking at the human skin mask and wig in her hands with a complicated look, Yukinoshita Yukino suppressed her shame and anger and stuffed the two things into her schoolbag. She could only be thankful that it was very close to class time, so no students would pass by the corner of the stairs near the top floor and see this scene.

Otherwise, if someone saw that the now famous Yukinoshita Yukino in Chiba Prefecture was impersonating Miura Yumiko, with whom she had always been at odds, and even imitated her figure so perfectly, the headlines of the entire Chiba Prefecture and even Japan tomorrow might be full of gossip.

For the past few months, Yukinoshita has once again realized the extent to which excessive popularity and fame can deteriorate a person's daily life. She doesn't know how those big stars in the past were able to maintain a dignified demeanor in front of various cameras and gazes after living such a life day after day.

For the first time, Yukinoshita felt a genuine respect for these "vulgar people" whom she had previously disdained in her heart. Apart from other aspects, their mentality and ability to control their emotions were indeed worth learning from.

For some well-known reasons, Yukinoshita Yukino is now one of the most famous people in the world, and naturally countless people are curious about her daily life. This kind of gaze, which is different from the malicious exclusion or targeting of people around her in the past, makes her, who has always been aloof, unable to cope with it. She suffered a lot in the first month.
