Chapter 20 Lucky Mutual Aid Club (12)
“Boy~ Thank you for your nutrition money. I left some for you to buy a lunch box. I’ll come to you in a few days if I don’t have any money. I have to work hard~ Haha Hahahaha~"
Seeing off two After the gangster took the few thousand yen left in his wallet and left, Inuyama Heita looked at the few steel coins in his wallet and sighed. Such a small amount of money would buy a shitty lunch, but he knew that he would get the money sooner or later. Back - if Qian Xiaoyi's guess is correct.
So he took out his mobile phone and called Qian Xiaoyi, but was rejected. After a while, Qian Xiaoyi sent a message.
Qian Xiaoyi: [You have just finished school at this time. It seems that the other party has already blackmailed you? But don’t contact him in a hurry. Take the tram to work first, and then contact him when you get home at night. Only in this way can you show your hatred and struggle. Pay attention to the character design, and don’t mess up the performance. 】
It's not surprising that Qian Xiaoyi could guess it. Inuyama Heita replied: [...I know, but what you said sounds like making a movie. 】
Qian Xiaoyi: [Haha, that’s almost it~ Don’t reveal the truth, otherwise our plan will be ruined~ Let’s not talk about it for now. I’m investigating some things outside. I’ll contact you later. 】
Inuyama Heita put away his mobile phone and took the train to work in Shangaitelou. Although he no longer had any money, he still had his railway transportation card, so taking the train was not a problem.
Staying up quietly until the evening, Inuyama Heita returned home with fresh packed meals. After eating them in a leisurely manner, he brewed his emotions for a while, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Matsui left the contact number on the flyer.
The phone was quickly connected, and a gentle female voice came from the other end: "Hello, this is the Lucky Mutual Aid Association. What can I do for you?"
"Well..." Inuyama Heita considered his words, and then said: "My name is Inuyama Heita. Mr. Matsui said that if you have anything, you can come to him."
"Is this Mr. Inuyama Heita?" said the female voice. : "Mr. Matsui has mentioned you. If you want to contact him, please call the number below..."
Heita Inuyama wrote down the number and hung up the phone, then took a deep breath and contacted him. Matsui.
"Hello, this is Matsui, who is it?"
"Mr. Matsui, I...I am Heita Inuyama..."
Inuyama Heita tried his best to pretend to be panicked and asked Matsui if there was any part-time job that made money, instead of directly telling him that he was being blackmailed and needed someone to deal with the two gangsters. This is also the result of his discussion with Qian Xiaoyi. Because of the social implicit code of "not wanting to cause trouble to other people", people here are very... euphemistic in their actions and words, so according to Inuyama Heita's "personality" ", he would not ask Matsui for help so directly. After all, if he is an ordinary student, he will definitely be timid and afraid of making things worse. In addition, Inuyama Heita does not have the support of his parents behind him, so his worries are even more serious. Much more. If those two gangsters were really sent by Matsui, then he would definitely not miss this opportunity.
"Part-time jobs are available, but I still hope you can join our organization...and, Heita-kun, you seem to have something to hide?" Sure enough, Matsui had already Transformed into a close brother, he asked patiently: "Pingtai-kun, according to my observation, you are not someone who would take the initiative to ask for help from others, right? You must have encountered something that you can't solve by yourself, right?"
"No...it's okay, it's just that I'm a little short of money recently, there's nothing else..." Inuyama Heita hesitated, while Matsui There was constant comfort and persuasion, and finally, after the two talked about the subject for several minutes, Inuyama Heita truthfully told Matsui about the blackmail.
"I understand, leave this matter to us, Heita-kun, don't worry, just go to school." Matsui said and hung up the phone.
Inuyama Heita regained his expression without any fluctuations, and even wanted to laugh a little. He shook his head, then went to wash up and go to sleep. By the way, he looked forward to what good shows he would be able to watch tomorrow. Through this phone call , he confirmed that this matter was planned by Matsui, and naturally he would not believe a word of the other party. On the second day, the fun finally started. After letting go of the school dog, Yamaheita still followed the original path, went straight to the station, and then went to work at Shanwai Building. As expected, he was stopped again by the gangster who suddenly appeared.
"Are you here?" Inuyama Heita's uneasy expression changed again, but he was very much looking forward to it.
"Hey! Inuyama, you went to work yesterday, right?" The gangster shouted: "Please buy us a drink, aren't we friends?"
Although Heita Inuyama was wondering what they were doing It was time to become friends, but he still pretended to be scared and said hesitantly: "I...I didn't go to work yesterday, so I have no money to give you."
"What did you say?!" Another gangster used Not injured myself He grabbed Heita Inuyama's collar with his hand, took out his other bandaged hand, and scolded: "You kid, have you forgotten who injured my hand? Every night my hand It hurts so much, it's all your fault ! Don’t you want to admit it? Do your classmates and teachers know that Inuyama Heita is such a person? In this case, it seems that I have an obligation to tell them your true face, what do you think, Inu-san?
"I...I..." Inuyama was still pretending to be submissive, but the next moment, he found that many people suddenly came from all around, surrounding him and the gangster.
"Don't touch this child." said a familiar voice.
Inuyama Heita was stunned, and then said with an expression of disbelief: "Mr. Matsui?!"
Matsui still had the same smile, and there were more than a dozen people around him. Inuyama Heita vaguely remembered a few of them. , should all be members of the Lucky Mutual Aid Association.
"Is it Inuyama-kun?" A middle-aged man he brought smiled heartily: "I heard Mr. Matsui said that you were in trouble, so we all came." Inuyama Heita vaguely remembered this person Whose name is Kuroda or Kuroki? He spoke at the party.
"Hey, hey, I will never allow you to bully a young boy like this!" Another strong man with heavy make-up and unshaven beard put his hand on the gangster's shoulder and gave a little force...
"It hurts, it hurts!" The man's face showed a distorted expression, and he shouted: "Against violence! Oppose violence!"
When another gangster saw this, he shouted with anger: "Hey, Who are you! If you do this again, I will call the police!"
"The person who blackmailed the high school student actually shouted to call the police?" Matsui was a little funny, and he nodded to Inuyama Heita: "Wait a moment, Heita. "Jun, let's go talk to them."
"Leave it to us." An uncle gave a thumbs up to Inuyama Heita.
The crowd gathered around the two gangsters and led them into an alley on one side.
