Chapter 254: A weirdo who bullies children?

Following the sound, I came to a relatively remote alley, and I saw a burly man holding a lollipop and laughing, and a crying little boy stood next to him.

"Give me back my lollipop!"

The little boy looked very sad, his eyes were red from crying. After crying for a few times, he seemed to be very angry about the behavior of the man in front of him. He waved his little fists and rushed towards the man, as if he wanted to fight with the man.

“Hey, little guy, are you still planning to fight me? Although the Nine Tengu have taken away my God’s Eye, I am still the best in the world without it. Look at my powerful Super Tornado Thunderbolt Hand.”

As the man uttered a very cool-sounding move, he raised his hand high. Seeing this, Ruo Jin, who had just arrived at the entrance of the alley, felt his heart tighten. A bad premonition arose in his heart. Could this guy be trying to attack the little boy?

No, it shouldn't be like that. Just when Ruo Jin thought that this would not happen, the man's actions made Ruo Jin's heart rise again, because he found that the man's hand showed no intention of stopping when it approached the little boy. Seeing that the man's hand was about to fall on the little boy's head, Ruo Jin, who had no time to step forward to rescue the little boy, could only shout.

"stop!"

Even though Ruo Jin was shouting very hard, this roar failed to stop the man's actions, and the man's hand finally fell on the little boy's head. Witnessing everything that happened in front of him, Ruo Jin's eyes were bloodshot. Not only did this man snatch the little boy's lollipop, but he actually hit him. It was simply unforgivable.

The chivalrous spirit that Liyue has emphasized since ancient times has profoundly influenced every generation of Liyue people. The virtue of protecting the weak is engraved in the bones of Liyue people. Now a young life has disappeared in front of him. Even if this incident did not happen in Liyue, Ruo Jin still felt furious.

"Hmm? Who are you? Do you want to have a bug fighting contest with me too?"

Hearing Ruojin's roar, the man who was holding a lollipop in one hand and resting his other hand on a little boy's head suddenly looked at Ruojin. Because of the huge difference in size and strength, the little boy whose head was resting on him could only wave his arms in vain and watched the lollipop being stuffed into the mouth of the man in front of him.

Ah, this... No, this is different from what he thought. Looking at the little boy who was safe and sound but just crying, Ruo Jin couldn't wrap his mind around it for a moment. Where was the powerful move he was supposed to use? In the end, it was just like this? Was he being fooled?

Ruojin, who didn't understand, looked at the lollipop in the man's hand and then at the little boy whose head was held up by the man's hand. Ruojin probably realized that he might be wrong, so he had to speak dryly.

"You, you are not allowed to bully a child. Give the lollipop back to him."

"Ha? Bullying a kid? I won this lollipop fairly, why should I give it back? If you want to eat it, challenge me to a fight with a scorpion beetle. If you win, I will give you the lollipop right away."

The man's words made Ruo Jin a little unsure of what to say next. This was his first time in Inazuma and he didn't even know what a ghost beetle was. How could he compete with the man in front of him in a ghost beetle battle? "You don't even have a ghost beetle, do you? Then I'll gladly accept this lollipop."

Seeing that Ruojin couldn't take out the ghost beetle, the man laughed. Then Ruojin heard a click. When Ruojin saw the lollipop again, there was only an empty stick left. The sugar on the stick had been bitten into pieces by the man and was holding it in his mouth.

"Yes, I'll return the candy stick to you. Just now, Kujo Tengu said that an ambassador will visit Inazuma Castle, so we should pay attention to our image. You can't throw this garbage around. It will be bad for Inazuma's reputation in front of outsiders. Come to think of it, that ambassador is really troublesome."

After stuffing the candy stick into the little boy's hand, the man also specifically reminded the boy not to litter. Looking at the empty candy stick in his hand, the little boy cried even harder, and this time he ran out of the alley while crying, yelling that he wanted to find his mother.

"Ah, this kid is good. He didn't litter even though he was crying. He is indeed a strong opponent who can defeat me eighty-nine times. Now the ambassador should not think that Inazuma is uncultured."

"Wait, it seems that this kid's ghost beetle was not taken away. Well, since no one wants you, a little guy who has defeated me eighty-nine times, you should follow me from now on, hahahaha."

Watching the man in front of him collecting the insect called the ghost beetle on the ground as if it were a treasure, Ruo Jin's eyes twitched a few times. Why did he feel that the character of the man in front of him was not like that of an Inazuma person, but more like that of a Mond. This kind of freedom was a little too free.

Moreover, Ruo Jin didn't know whether he should tell the man in front of him that he was the troublesome ambassador. Although he was not sure what benefits the cooperation between Liyue and Inazuma would bring to Liyue, he was sure that the mental state of the Inazuma man in front of him was definitely problematic. After all, apart from mental problems, Ruo Jin really couldn't figure out why an adult would snatch a child's lollipop.

Could it be that this guy has been driven stupid by Inazuma's various decrees? An idea suddenly popped up in Ruo Jin's mind, and then this idea became more and more certain in Ruo Jin's mind. Unconsciously, Ruo Jin looked at the man in front of him with a little pity in his eyes. How could such a good person have mental problems?

Gurgle~ Just when Ruojin was still feeling pity for the man in front of him, his stomach protested again. This time the protest was louder than before. Ruojin rubbed his stomach awkwardly. It seemed that he really had to eat.

"Hey so-and-so, you don't look like an Inazuma person in this outfit. Come on, I, Arotaki Ichito, will treat you to ramen today after defeating my rival."

"That's not necessary. I can go eat by myself. You, hey, hey, don't pull my clothes, clothes, clothes..."

Before Ruojin could finish his words, he was pulled out of the alley by his clothes by the man in front of him who called himself Ara Taki Ichito. Considering that he had no clothes in his luggage and this was the only piece of clothing he had, Ruojin was worried that he would have nothing to wear so he had to be pulled out of the alley by Ara Taki Ichito.
