Chapter 81 The Speed of Life and Death (4)
The middle-aged man took Qian Xiaoyi to the woods beside the road. He took out the cigarette case from his trouser pocket, lit it up, and asked, "Do you mind?"
“Please,” Qian Xiaoyi said.
The middle-aged man was holding a cigarette in his mouth. He touched his trouser pocket and found that the lighter seemed to be on his jacket. He put it in the car and was about to put the cigarette back when a hand holding a lighter stretched out from the side. Light a cigarette for him.
"Hiss~" The middle-aged man blew out a puff of smoke, nodded to Qian Xiaoyi to express his gratitude, and asked: "Thank you, do you smoke too?"
"Occasionally." Qian Xiaoyi shrugged, and then said: "So, you said before that you knew Kuroda Nobunaga?"
"More than just acquaintance..." The middle-aged man fell into memories: "He and I But my best friend, I even blocked the bat for him when they were fighting. At that time, he was really... ah, sorry, sorry, I'm getting older. If you are not careful, you will start to reminisce about the past. Let me introduce myself. My name is Kamio Minoru. I am a friend of that guy Kuroda and the third generation leader of the Bosozoku clan "Yakoniku". When we first met, Yoro~Death Ku !"
He turned around and saw four large Chinese characters "Ye Gui Ni Ku" written vertically on his vest.
This name is both night and ghost, and it seems quite bluffing, but when Qian Xiaoyi heard it, he almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. This is the unique word-borrowing culture of the Bosozoku. Rewrite the Japanese words into Chinese characters according to their pronunciation, making the original ordinary words look very cool, such as "a lot" The very common expression "care" is written as "night dew and death is bitter", "I love you" is borrowed to write "love death day flow", etc., and there are also "noisy and superior" and the like. The usage is widely spread. It is a representative symbol in Japanese subculture, similar to the domestic non-mainstream Martian character "磣懓".
The name "Yogoniku" mentioned by this Bosozoku uncle has the same pronunciation as Yakiniku. In other words, if directly translated, they are called the Yakiniku Gang.
Seeing Qian Xiaoyi couldn't help but laugh, the uncle scratched his head and said, "Ahh~ Just laugh if you want. I didn't come up with this name. At that time, the first-generation president's family owned a barbecue restaurant, and he was in the second grade of middle school, so That’s why I got this name. I’m not saying that this name is quite normal. In those days, there were many more strange names.”
“Ahem... I have received professional training. Under normal circumstances. You won’t laugh unless you can’t help it, Yegui Niku... pfft~”
Uncle Gumi complained: “How can I be professional? Isn’t this a very happy smile?” . Hey, stop laughing, it makes me feel a little embarrassed!"
"I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered something funny." Qian Xiaoyi said sternly, "Then I do too. Let’s not beat around the bush, I was asked by Kuroda Nobunaga’s family to investigate some matters. This is my business card, Ye Lu Shi Ku!”
Gumi took Qian Xiaoyi’s hand! After seeing the name and business scope in the past business card, he looked at Qian Xiaoyi curiously and said: "It's actually a spirit removal agency? It doesn't look like it at all. I thought those in your business were all weird people. ”
"To each other." Qian Xiaoyi said: "I can't imagine that the uncle with the beer belly in front of me is actually the legendary bosozoku."
The two looked at each other and smiled, quite sympathetic to each other. . Gumi sighed: "Bosozoku are a thing of the past. Now we just get together and race on remote roads to vent the stress of the day. Like me, I was beaten by my boss in the company during the day. Making things difficult, being scolded badly but not being able to retaliate, and not looking for something to do at night If you vent your feelings, you will really feel crazy."
"But I don't think you still have young people," Qian Xiaoyi asked: "They are not you. An old member from the past, right?"
Gumi said: "Of course not. Now, they are all juniors or friends of the old members. Now Yegui Niku has essentially become a motorcycle enthusiasts club. Anyone who likes riding can come and play. Everyone welcomes new members. After joining, I feel like I have returned to my original intention without the violent activities. The boys who first joined the Yagoniku simply got together because they liked motorcycles. They were different from the other bosozokus who fought for territory to dominate Kanto, but unfortunately, it ended up like that... Sigh , it’s a pity to think about it now.”
"Work during the day and race cars at night." Qian Xiaoyi nodded: "So that's it, the former bosozokus have also entered society and disappeared. They only come out late at night when no one is disturbed to recall their former youth and frivolity. Kuroda It’s the same, just come back and race when you’re worried?”
“Yes.” Said: "Despite his dull look, he is actually wilder than anyone else at heart. When he was a boy, this guy was the craziest one, the kind who would go crazy and even risk his life. He even broke into the area near the territory. He got the title of 'Tiger of the Night Ghost'"
"So something happened to him a few days ago?" Qian Xiaoyi asked: "Yes. You guys are having too much fun, is it just Kuroda who is unlucky? Or is there something wrong with the road conditions here? "
"How could it be?" Gumi said: " It is an abandoned old tunnel. I heard that the hillside on the exit side has soft soil and frequent rockfalls, so it was closed a long time ago. , but the road conditions here are very good, and there are no other cars passing through. It is very suitable for drag racing. It is regarded as the secret base of our Yakuniku, and it is also a treasured place for the Bosozoku. We had to fight our lives to get this place. A piece of territory is being defended.”
“Then what happened to Kuroda?” Qian Xiaoyi asked.
When asked about this, Gumi became a little hesitant, and he said mysteriously: "Since you are the spiritual killer invited by the Kuroda family, you must have discovered something, right? Then I won't hide it from you... Have you heard of Granny Turbine?”
Qian Xiaoyi heard the name of this old acquaintance. Words, I subconsciously want to slap myself in the face, what's the matter... Granny Turbine is basically a harmless urban legend monster. Qian Xiaoyi had to thank her before for being able to seal the slit girl, otherwise he might have suffered Heavy, so he had no ill feelings towards this old woman who only knew how to run.
So Kuroda was so idle that he went racing with that old lady, right?
"...Does he want to race with that guy?" Qian Xiaoyi sighed.
"You know this legend? That's easy to handle." Gumi said: "Haha, in fact, it's not just him, basically all of us old members of Yegui Niku have tried this. ”
Qian Xiaoyi slapped his own face: Okay, this whole barbecue gang is not a fuel-saving lamp~
