Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: Duelists Beyond Light

Chapter 8 Speed ​​8 New Partner
In an old factory building filled with dust and garbage, You Qing sat on a wooden box, eating cold food from a dented tin lunch box.

This was not the first time he had to ask others for food, but after so many years, as a professional racing driver, he did feel uncomfortable.

But what can be done?

From participating in the competition, to the accident, to the duel with Niu Wei, he had no idea what was going on.

As an athlete, he had a big appetite, and after all the hard work, he was really starving.

While eating, You Qing did not forget to look into the distance. His D wheels and racing suit were hidden in the alley. Seeing that no one was walking that way, he felt relieved.

In just a few minutes, not even a grain of rice was left in the iron box.

You Qing took the water bottle handed to him and poured two sips into his mouth, saying, "Thank you."

"We are the ones who should say thank you~" the brown-haired boy smiled friendly, "If it weren't for you, we would probably be doomed. Those guys up there wouldn't miss the opportunity to mess with us."

The boy was halfway through his words when he suddenly noticed You Qing looking at another lunch box not far away.

The shorter one among them rushed out and grabbed the lunch box in his arms, "This is my meal for the whole day!"

The factories in the satellite area work day and night, and these young people are full-time night shift workers, so even though it is already dark, the new day has just begun for them.

The brown-haired boy smiled helplessly, took out a few dirty bills from his pocket, and then took out a duel card from his pocket and handed it to the short man: "Go, buy some food for everyone. We really have work to do tonight."

Since the conveyor belt was repaired, two people have been guarding the assembly line to sort out waste. However, due to the previous failure, in addition to completing their normal work tonight, they also have to clean up the mountains of garbage on the ground, which is indeed a lot of work.

Looking at the card handed over by the brown-haired boy, You Qing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you trade cards?"

A thin man nearby smiled smugly, "No, that's not the case. Dickade is close to the owner of the grocery store, and that card is proof of their relationship. The owner will give more gifts whenever he sees that card."

As soon as the little guy took the card, he ran away with the lunch box. You Qing didn't even see what the card was.

Although ordinary cards are widely circulated in the market, considering that it is a place like the satellite zone, duel cards are a scarce resource, so their method of communication is understandable.

The brown-haired boy named "Dickade" extended his hand and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is 'Dickade'. You helped us a lot today. I will remember this favor."

"This is 'Jun Hirata,' and those busy over there are 'Daigo' and 'Ryohei,' and the little kid who just ran out to buy something is 'Lally.'"

"Don't say that. Lali hates being called a kid the most." Hirata Shun reminded with a smile.

Dickade nodded quickly and corrected him, "Yes, yes, our Lali is no longer a child."

You Qing greeted everyone one by one, but when he heard the familiar name "Lali", he couldn't help but be stunned.

Lali?!
Could it be the friend of the protagonist Yusei Fudo in the original anime?

Is that the one who stole the D-round chip from the factory for Yusei in the first episode?

You Qing couldn't quite remember what Lali looked like in the animation, but one thing he remembered very clearly was that Lali was a boy who often wore a wide skirt.

The short guy who just ran out seemed to be dressed like this. The ill-fitting dress made him, who was already short, look like a mushroom.

Seeing You Qing was a little dazed, Dickade waved in front of him and said with a smile: "Hey, how about you? New guy, why don't you introduce yourself? Where are you from?"

Dickade was acting as naturally as possible, but You Qing still understood that they were trying to find out about his background.

But it didn't matter. Before arriving at the factory, he had already combined his knowledge of anime with a set of rhetoric. You Qing sighed and replied, "I used to teach driving elsewhere, but then I offended a sheriff and had to flee to F17."

After saying this, Dickade and Hirata Shun's expressions changed immediately. The other two people who were working not far away were also stunned and stopped what they were doing.

You Qing knew very well what they were worried about. In this utopia of rights, offending the sheriff was no different from being sentenced to death.

He gently closed the lunch box beside him, stood up and said, "Don't worry, I'll rest here for a while and then leave. But remember to look for the lost parts, otherwise the conveyor belt will break down again in a few days."

Seeing You Qing preparing to leave so decisively, Dickade and the others were stunned.

After thinking for a moment, Dickade wanted to keep You Qing first, but before he could speak, Lali's shouting came from outside the factory.

“Run!! Run!!”

"The Wildfire team is here!!"

Lali ran over with a big bag of food. Panting, she returned the card to Decade and said quickly, "Oh no! The Wildfire team is chasing us!"

Decade immediately realized something: "Why did the Wildfire team come here suddenly? Lali, what happened?"

Lali hesitated, but when she saw that time was running out, she gritted her teeth and told the truth: "Our spare parts were stolen by the Wildfire Team! So I wanted to get them back! But, the result was..."

"So they found me and thought I was a thief, right?" the skinny Shun Hirata couldn't help but yell, the veins on his arms showing. "Lally, why do you always have to get into trouble?!"

"But if we don't bring the parts back, we'll be punished again in a couple of days!" Lali argued loudly. "Do we have to treat this guy to meals every day and let him fix it? We don't have much money left this month!"

You Qing: ...

While they were arguing, a group of people rushed towards the gate of the factory area in the distance with weapons in their hands. Among them was even a rider on a D-wheeled vehicle. The security guards at the guard booth were useless. When they saw someone coming to cause trouble, they hid as soon as they saw someone coming to cause trouble.

Dickade said solemnly, "There's no time for quarreling! Daogu, Liangping, lock the factory door and don't let them in and smash things! Lali, you stay here, Shun, we'll go and lead them away!"

As he said that, he took out a bunch of keys and ran out, even forgetting that there was one more person here than usual.

You Qing knew very well that now that he was hanging out with Dickade and the others, the so-called "Wildfire Team" would definitely not let him go.

When you first arrive, the most important thing is to have a place to stay. So far, these people seem to be reliable.

Dickade and Shun Hirata rushed to a dusty old car parked at the factory door and inserted the car key. But before Dickade got into the driver's seat, You Qing chased out and stopped him: "Let me drive."

"Ah?" Dickade was stunned, obviously not expecting You Qing to stand up at this time.

You Qing nodded firmly: "Leave it to me, I used to teach people how to drive."

The Wildfire team had already rushed over, but the factory door was still unlocked. Decade gritted his teeth and gave the driver's seat to You Qing: "I'll trust you again! After this is over, I'll treat you to a drink at A13!"

“Click——————————”

You Qing turned the car key, and the moment he gripped the steering wheel, he felt everything come back to him.

He wasn't very skilled at driving a D-wheel, but he was damn good at it on four wheels!
The roar of the engine sounded, the high beams were turned on, and the three men rushed towards the crowd.
