Tokyo, My Childhood Friend is a Ghost Story

Chapter 95 Kasyapa, I'm sorry.
On the other side, the moment Xiao Fujiang told Fujiang Jiaye about the accident, Uta Kasaya and the other person rushed back home in a hurry.

As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Jia Yezi, her eyes vacant and her soul seemingly ripped out, leaning weakly against Matsushima Yuko's chest like a puppet, her head tilted to one side.

"Little Kasyapa? Come quickly, this child..."

Upon seeing this, Uta Kassapa felt a sudden pang in his heart and quickly went to Kayanoko's side, squatted down, and pulled her into his arms.

"It's alright, it's alright, we're back."

Fu Jiang followed half a step behind and came to the side. She glanced at Matsushima Yuko, who had a worried expression, and helped her up from the ground.

"Grandma, it's alright. Jia Ye and I will handle things here. You can go back now."

Yuko Matsushima glanced at the distraught Kayoko and sighed helplessly.

"This child is so pitiful. It seems her father stole something from her. She chased after him from home, knelt on the ground and begged for a long time, and was even slapped. Sigh."

After sighing, Matsushima Yuko shook her head and slowly walked back home.

It was at this moment that Uta Kassapa suddenly noticed that warm blood was flowing from Kayashiro's forehead, and that her knees, covered by her jeans, had been worn with several nicks.

Looking at the blood on her palm, Uta Kassapa felt a pang of pain in his heart. He put his arm around her waist and tried to help her up from the ground.

During the physical contact, Jia Yezi, who had come to her senses, first stared blankly at him, and then suddenly hugged his waist and wailed.

"Gaga Watch!!!"

Overwhelmed by intense emotions, Jia Yezi sobbed incessantly until she could no longer speak. Uta Kasaya heard the sound and took her empty left hand to look at it.

"Don't cry, it's okay. I'll buy you a new one. Don't cry, don't cry."

Amidst the comforting words of affection, anger surged within Uta Kassapa, and bloodshot veins began to appear in his eyes.

Fu Jiang, standing to the side, watched Jia Yezi crying incessantly, her heart filled with silence.

It sounds awful; the crying sounds really awful.
So, it turns out that humans can also cry out in a way that resembles the howls of wild beasts?
Fu Jiang has heard many adults cry—some angry, some in pain, and many more cursing—but she has never heard anyone as helpless as Jia Yezi.

This kind of crying only occurs in children who are pretended to be abandoned by their parents and left in the street in a state of fright.

Fu Jiang squatted behind Jia Yezi, gently patted her back, and took out a tissue from his bag to wipe the bloodstains from her face.

"Kasyapa, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Dosan Dosan stole the watch I bought for you. Wow."

Seeing Kayanoko, who was crying like a child while hugging Uta Kasaya because of her intense grief and kept repeating this sentence, a pang of heartache appeared in Fukie's eyes.

"Okay, stop crying. We'll find it for you right away, by tomorrow at the latest. We'll definitely find it for you, just like last time, I promise."

The breakdown and crying continued for a very long time, until there were no more tears left. Jia Yezi still buried her head in Utakayo's abdomen, sobbing intermittently.

The two helped Jia Yezi back home, and Fu Jiang found some loose pajamas for her to change into.

"I'm sorry, Kasyapa, I'm so sorry."

He took the gauze, moistened it with water, and, amidst Jia Yezi's guilty murmurs, soaked her hair, which was tangled due to blood clots, and looked at the wound on the right side of her forehead.

"No, you need to go to the clinic for stitches."

"Okay, let's go now."

As Fu Jiang helped Jia Yezi to the clinic, listening to her daughter, who had been wronged at home, murmuring self-blame all the way, her emotions were very complicated.

She never blamed anyone else, not even her father who took her watch, nor the family she grew up in; she only blamed herself.

In the clinic, large swathes of hair were cut off with scissors, revealing bluish scalp and bloody wounds.

The curved needle pricked Jia Yezi's scalp. She didn't let out a cry, but just pursed her lips and gripped Uta Kasyapa's hand tightly.

It seems that this gives her the courage to face pain.

Or perhaps, she was afraid that Utakayo would hate her because her watch had been stolen, and blame her for not being able to do such a small thing well, so she didn't dare to speak up.

Fearing that his wailing would annoy Uta Kasyapa and Fukie, he was driven out of the house.

"Okay, remember not to get it wet for the next five days after you get back."

Perhaps it was because Jia Yezi's expression was so heartbreaking that even the doctor spoke with unusual gentleness.

After taking her home, Uta Kassapa knelt down to take off the shoes of the dazed Kayanoko and gently put slippers on her. Even Fukie herself had rarely enjoyed such service, but she felt no jealousy, only a surge of affection.

Inside the laundry room, Fujang looked at the ripped knees of her jeans.

Denim is a fabric that is highly durable and abrasion resistant compared to other common fabrics.

However, Jia Yezi's pants had a hole the size of a palm, so it's not hard to imagine how far she had been dragged.

He threw his jeans into a corner, went to Jia Yezi's room, and helped Utakayo coax her to sleep, looking at the sullen girl who was still tightly clenching her hands in her sleep.

Afterwards, Fukie returned to her bedroom with Uta Kasyapa, changed into a set of black long-sleeved shirt and trousers for easy movement, and then went downstairs.

"I've already contacted someone to help find her father, and I'll go there as soon as I find him."

Looking at Fukie, who had changed into long clothes and trousers and whose expression was frighteningly calm, Uta Kasyapa pulled her aside and spoke softly.

"Jia Yezi might wake up in a bit, so she needs someone she knows to stay with her so she won't be scared."

Upon hearing this, Fu Jiang looked up at Yu Duo Jia Ye for a moment, and then gently kissed him on tiptoe.

"come back earlier."

"it is good."

Watching Uta Kasyapa's departing figure, Fukie sat down beside Kayakko's bed.

As I ran my fingers over Jia Yezi's furrowed brows, she looked more and more like a child. Despite being so big and sexy, she didn't have the vitality that should belong to her age.

Instead, they were cautious, like children, facing an unfamiliar world and unfamiliar people, only daring to stand far away and watch warily.

The noisy underground casino was filled with blue smoke and the excitement of the winners and the curses of the losers.

"Hey, Chuanyou, if you don't have money, get the hell out of here! I'm warning you, don't borrow any more money from me, or I'll break your hand!"

"Damn it, you only lend me a few thousand yuan each time, did you even lend it to your mother?!"

Faced with the casino manager's insults, a hint of resentment flashed in Chuan You's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant before he revealed a humble smile.

"I won't lend it this time. I just got a watch, bro. Take a look, if you like it, you can keep it."

The person in charge took the watch, glanced at it, and then slapped Chuan You across the face.

"This is a women's style!"

Chuan was slapped again but didn't get angry. Instead, he said helplessly.

"I know you recently found a new girl, so I'm giving you a discount. It's still more cost-effective than buying her outright, right?"

Upon hearing this, the person in charge glanced at Chuan You and then handed him 100,000 yuan.

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss!"

The person in charge spat as he watched Chuan You scurry back to the gambling table.

"Gambling addict."

Looking at the watch in his hand, which cost at least 200,000 yuan, the person in charge glanced at Chuan You disdainfully, grabbed a female gambling addict, and returned to his office with a lewd grin.

Just then, one of the henchmen suddenly pushed open the door and walked in.

"Do you want to die!?"

The person in charge, who had already taken off his pants and was about to get down to business, turned around angrily and saw his boss's boss, Miyagawa, walking in from the door.

Seeing the woman pinned to the desk, Miyagawa impatiently waved her away, telling her to hurry up and put on her pants.

"I'm in a hurry. Is there someone named Chuanyou here with you?"

The person in charge was taken aback, then led Miyagawa outside and pointed out the person.

He was right there.
