He felt that if he had not taken action just now and let the little girl be bullied by a group of bad guys, the powder keg might explode.

The powder keg refers to the evil aura within her.

She is now in a very dangerous situation, but Uesugi Kiyoshi has no way to stop her from becoming a demon.

This situation is different from the mystic's belief in ghosts and gods. Over time, the evil spirit has penetrated deep into Qianyu's body and soul, and it is probably difficult to eradicate.

After seeing Qianyu bow her head to apologize to the foreman and then return to work, Xingzi breathed a sigh of relief.

She was actually very scared just now, her heart was beating like a drum, but when she thought of Uesugi Kiyoshi being by her side, endless courage surged out of her.

Anzi moved little by little to the side of Uesugi Kiyoshi, almost sticking to him, smiling happily, with her eyebrows and eyes curved like crescent moons.

"Thank you, Uesugi-kun."

Uesugi Kiyoshi opened his half-closed eyes, raised his eyebrows with a smile, and said softly: "What do you want to thank me for, Xingzi?"

Kyoko blinked and pouted, thinking of many answers in her mind.

Thank you for standing in front of me again just now.

Thank you for saving my friend.

Thank you for not denying the fact that you are my boyfriend.

In the end, it all came together into one sentence.

Xingzi was a little shy, but she leaned firmly on Uesugi Kiyoshi's shoulder, half tilted her head, looked at his handsome profile, and murmured as if in a dream.

"Thank you for always being by my side."

Suddenly, it felt like something in my head was broken.

The water bottle fell, silver light leaked out, and memories flowed out slowly like running water.

like

In the distant past.

I have also leaned against Uesugi-kun like this before.

His features are as poetic as a painting, and he always looks at me tenderly.

And I, just like now, washed clothes and cooked for him, lit a lamp at night, and waited for him to come back.

A dream-like life

Is it my imagination?

Xingzi began to be dazed, but Uesugi Kiyoshi suddenly felt a trembling sensation coming from the Hundred Demons Scroll.

His mind sank and he came to the mirage, where he suddenly saw a faint glow on the portrait of Apricot wearing a blue and white kimono on the wall.

His pupils shrank slightly, but there was a smile on his face.

"Is this a sign of memory recovery?"

"It's a good thing after all. Don't worry. Just let it go."

"Xingzi is different from me. Her soul is not that strong. It may be difficult for her to remember the past events. There is no need to do it deliberately."

In a moment, Uesugi Qing's soul returned to the world.

He opened his eyes and found that Xingzi had ended her daze, but was a little absent-minded.

He didn't point it out, but just changed the subject.

"Well, Kyoko, won't you tell me about that good friend of yours?"

Hearing this, Xingzi woke up from her dream and nodded subconsciously.

"Chiba is my junior, her last name is Fujimura, Fujimura Chiba."

"We are neighbors."

"The Fujimura family was quite famous in our town. Chiyu's father was a senior executive of a company in the town and earned a good salary. Chiyu's mother was also very beautiful. They were a happy family that many people envied."

"But. Later"

"Mother Qianyu seems to have been bewitched by someone and has converted to a strange religion."

"She donated all her family savings to the church without telling her husband, and even borrowed money from loan sharks and mortgaged her house. The woman was like a possessed person, madly devoting everything to her faith."

"This is what the police officer said at the time."

"Mr. Fujimura called the police, but the religion disappeared and the police could do nothing. Finally, Mr. Fujimura was overwhelmed and committed suicide by taking poison."

"And Qianyu's mother took Qianyu away from home - the neighbors said at the time that it seemed to be to avoid debt."

"I didn't expect they came to Kyoto. Hokkaido is so far away from Kyoto!"

"I can actually meet Qianyu here again. We haven't seen each other for five or six years!"

There was some excitement in Anzi's tone, as if she were meeting an old friend again, but Uesugi Kiyoshi had basically figured out what had happened.

Daughter of a bitch. No wonder those people say that.

In order to survive, it seems that women like that have only one choice: to work in a brothel?

The stupid woman lost her mind and had all her money cheated out of her. She was probably seduced by someone as well, and in the end her family was broken up - oh, no, only her husband died.

Mr. Fujimura is also an idiot. Both he and his wife are so stupid. He is just a coward with no sense of responsibility.

It is true that there must be something hateful about every pitiful person.

I have no money, can't I earn money to pay it back? My wife is a fool, can't I find a new one? What hurdle is so hard to overcome that I have to commit suicide?

If you commit suicide and end it all, what will happen to your daughter who will be left alone?

Leave it to that stupid woman?

Putting aside other things, this couple are not fit to be parents, which makes Uesugi Kiyoshi extremely disgusted.

But having said that, Chiba Fujimura was a girl with a strong will. It was a miracle that she could grow up healthily in that environment.

Of course, perhaps it is precisely because of this environment that darkness and despair take root deep in the heart and eventually become the fuse for demonization.

Uesugi Kiyoshi glanced at Fujimura Chiha's back thoughtfully, but she suddenly turned around and met his eyes.

Obvious panic appeared in Fujimura Chiha's eyes, and she immediately looked away and hurried to work.

And Uesugi Kiyoshi's smile became meaningful.

She is afraid of me

Why is she afraid of me?

Are you afraid that I might kill some bad guys or some violent ones?

No way, a child who grew up in that kind of environment wouldn't even be able to withstand this.

Then

Did she feel something?

Without further investigation, Uesugi Kiyoshi sat on the chair, squinting at the sunset outside the window, no longer paying attention to Fujimura Chiba.

And Anzi might be a little tired after walking around all day, so she leaned on Uesugi Kiyoshi's shoulder and gradually fell into a deep sleep.

The two of them stayed in the coffee shop until after seven in the evening.

It was not until Uesugi Kiyoshi saw Fujimura Chiha changed out of her waitress's maid uniform, said goodbye to her colleagues, and hurried out of the store that he gently shook Anzi to wake her up.

He had just inquired that in order to raise tuition and living expenses, Fujimura Chiha had basically no time to rest, and her days off were almost all spent working part-time.

It was probably the same for Uesugi Kiyoshi in the days before he awakened the Hundred Demons Emakura.

Trying your best to survive for a few tens of thousands of yen is sad, ridiculous, and somewhat respectable.

"Kyoko, shall we go?"

Anzi had just woken up from her sleep, feeling a little dazed. She had had a very long dream in which she grew up with her beloved Uesugi-kun, taking care of his food and daily life. She was enjoying it, but she was woken up.

She was a little unhappy, but when she saw that gentle smiling face, all her unhappiness disappeared.

"Good~"

She quickly agreed and stood up without asking where they were going. She was too embarrassed to take Shan Qing's hand, so she just held the corner of his clothes.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't care about that. He just grabbed Anzi's soft little hand and led her out.

After saying hello to Ueno Sanishi, the two of them fell far behind Fujimura Chiha.

It's seven o'clock, the sun sets, the moon rises, and the lights come on.

Instead of becoming more desolate, Xinjingji became even more bustling.

Compared to the formal commercial streets during the day, Shinkyogoku at night is dominated by izakayas, bars, KTVs, and entertainment shops.

Some shops that are closed during the day have started to operate and make money.

Anzi followed Uesugi Kiyoshi for a long time, and finally came to her senses.

She asked in confusion: "Uesugi-kun, where are we going?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi smiled slightly, stared at the girl in front of him who was walking hurriedly, and spoke quietly.

"We"

“To witness the transformation of poor people in desperate situations.”

Chapter 320 Revenge

Anzi looked at Uesugi Kiyoshi, not quite understanding what he meant.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was not impatient, but just explained patiently.

"This junior of Xingzi is not an ordinary person. She is, well, how should I put it."

"It's a monster."

Hearing this, Xingzi shuddered noticeably.

There was a hint of fear in her pupils.

"A monster?"
