Su Su shrugged his shoulders after predicting in advance that Shiratori Yurong was about to speak. Shiratori Yurong looked at Su Su's expression and smiled helplessly. Then he reached out and grabbed a newspaper hat from the table next to him and handed it to Su Su.

"Then at least take this thing with you, sir."

"Well."

Su Su took the hat and put it on his head, then adjusted it carefully. However, while Su Su was still adjusting it, Shiratori Yourong suddenly seemed to remember something and turned to look at Su Su.

"By the way, Mr. Su Su, you were not in the laboratory during this period, but someone came to your door and wanted you to help him repair his belt. The knight's belt problem seemed to be very serious. He came every day to ask when you would be back. The guy looked mysterious and wore a mask and a hat every time he came. He refused to take them off no matter what."

"But he is quite strong. He should be a third-level knight. Even without activating the belt, he has the strength of a first-level knight. He is also quite easy to talk to. He calls himself Haruta Masayoshi, but I don't know if it's true."

"..."

Springfield Justice?

There is no doubt that Shiratori Yuei's words shocked Su Su's heart. After all, he was very familiar with the name Haruta Masayoshi - that was the first knight he created with his own hands!

but......

Is this Springfield Justice the same Springfield Justice that I imagined?

Or is it just a coincidence?

The hand wearing the hat paused for a moment, and then his expression showed a hint of surprise, but he did not look particularly shocked. Su Su nodded at Shiratori Yurong and then answered aloud.

"Yes, I see. I didn't expect someone would be so anxious to find me... I'll show him when he comes again. But speaking of which, when I came in just now, you called me 'Justice'. I thought I heard it wrong. It turns out you were calling that knight. It seems that he does come here quite frequently. You are familiar with him."

After dealing with Shiratori Yuei, the two began to clean up again. However, this time, while cleaning, Su Su speculated the possibility that the other party was Haruta Masayoshi - in fact, if he calculated the time, if Haruta Masayoshi frequently used the transformation, he estimated that the potion in his belt should have been almost used up by now.

And judging from the fight with Kita Ayase, this guy uses the belt like crazy, and will probably use it frequently, so...

It should be him.

It just so happened that I had been thinking that it would be difficult to get the seal of "Knight of Judgment", but I didn't expect that the other party would actually deliver it to my door like this.

I just don’t know why this guy hides his real name. Maybe it’s because he is still a wanted criminal?

Well, speaking of Shiratori Yuei, these two wanted criminals are inexplicably in sync...

And it must be said that as the first knight he created, and also the only one who has stepped into the realm of transcendence solely by relying on his belt, Haruta Masayoshi's talent is exceptionally outstanding and even terrifying - except for Haruta Masayoshi, the other third-level knights or transcendents, in fact, did not simply rely on their own will and talent to step into the realm of transcendence.

For example, the Mad Riders and the Wind Riders, to put it bluntly, actually became extraordinary by relying on the experience gained from sharing the profits from the post-disaster conquest wars against the monsters.

The only person who is truly independent and extraordinary is Haruta Masayoshi.

Therefore, Su Su still had high expectations for this talented guy, and more importantly...

This time, the stage prepared for his promotion to the second level cannot be without such a talented player...

If he hadn't met Haruta Masayoshi, then Su Su would at most spread the news and then attract Haruta Masayoshi to come. If he had met him, then he could naturally make arrangements in advance and add more story to the drama - not to mention that Haruta Masayoshi's character of "practicing his own justice" is so easy to use and write about...

......

......

Of course, Haruta Masayoshi himself certainly doesn't think so.

On a street in Tokyo, in an inconspicuous ramen shop.

Putting the mask aside, Haruta Masayoshi wolfed down the ramen in front of him. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed with satisfaction.

This ramen restaurant was the one that Masayoshi Haruta frequented when he was still making a living in Tokyo.

Having not been here for a long time, Haruta Masayoshi returned to Tokyo and naturally missed the taste of the noodles. He would come here to eat from time to time. Surprisingly, the owner here had changed, but the price and taste of the noodles remained the same - I don't know if the current owner is the son of the old man before.

If so, then Haruta Masayoshi can only say that this son has learned the essence of his father.

"...Boss, pay."

After finishing his noodles, paying and walking out of the noodle shop, Haruta Masayoshi basked in the sun outside and patted his belly comfortably. He was not in a hurry to put on a mask for a while - to be honest, Haruta Masayoshi felt that his face did not look like that of a celebrity, and his popularity was probably not that high, so sometimes it was no big deal not to wear a mask.

Even if someone thinks that he looks like the "Knight of Conviction", but he doesn't have the Knight of Conviction's most classic double knights by his side, as long as he says that he just looks like him, no one will take it seriously, right?

Of course, you still need to wear a mask in some important or sensitive situations.

For example, Mr. Su Su, the belt repairman.

Speaking of which, it seems that the New Year is about to end, and Mr. Su Suqi is still not coming back. Chuntian Zhengyi is a little hesitant. Why don't I just go back and spend the New Year with the kids first and come back later?

After all, what if Mr. Su Su is also spending the New Year somewhere else...

In fact, to be honest, during these days in Tokyo, Haruta Masayoshi's mentality has unexpectedly become much calmer.

In the past, Haruta Masayoshi was either fighting or running around every day. He saw all kinds of injustices and came into contact with all kinds of evil people. So inevitably, immersed in this negative energy, Haruta Masayoshi became a little anxious and impatient.

That's why Haruta Masayoshi became so anxious after the belt lost its effect and his strength weakened.

But during these days in Tokyo, the leisurely life made Haruta Masayoshi suddenly realize that he was indeed a little too anxious in the past.

To the point that I began to ignore the people around me.

205. Goodbye after a long absence

Continue to wait in Tokyo or go back to celebrate the New Year. There is no doubt that Haruta Masayoshi now intends to choose the latter.

But before that, Haruta Masayoshi planned to make one last trip to the secret base of the "belt maintenance craftsman" Su Su to take a look. If he could meet him, he would just give him a repair. If he couldn't meet him, he would come back next year.

Actually, Haruta Masayoshi didn't know the secret location of the belt maintenance craftsman at first - the only thing he knew was his "meeting place", so he would go to the craftsman's company building from time to time to wait during the initial period.

During that period, Haruta Masayoshi even found a job nearby, planning to work while keeping watch.

Then, Haruta Masayoshi met his current "financial sponsor", who also told him the real base of the craftsman - the guy called himself "The Venerable" and was the manager of a sect.

Of course, under normal circumstances, Haruta Masayoshi would definitely ignore this guy, and might even have to investigate him. After all, his hiding his head and showing his tail is really suspicious, not to mention that the other party claims to be the manager of a sect.

You really don't know who I am, right?

You know, the Knights of Judgment are the best at destroying all kinds of cults. There are at least eighty cults destroyed by the Knights of Judgment. As a result, there are still people rushing to deliver themselves to the door. This is really like the lonely ghosts of the mountain and wild worshippers finding the heavenly soldiers and immortals who cut down mountains and destroyed temples, rushing to die...

Of course, although he was extremely suspicious of the other party's identity, Haruta Masayoshi did not attack him directly. After all, there was a problem with his belt, and it would be good if he could get a response once out of ten times. Secondly...

This is Tokyo, and I came here incognito. If I act rashly and reveal my identity, wouldn't it be like telling the police openly that I am a treacherous and lying person?

Chuntian Zhengyi practices his own justice, but he is not pedantic, so he suppressed his inner impulse and talked to the guy in a kind voice.

As a result, the guy who claimed to be the Venerable pointed out Chuntian Zhengyi's identity as "a supernatural person who came to the city from the countryside" very bluntly, and then said that he could make a deal with Chuntian Zhengyi - because of his special identity, he could not let people know that he was in contact with the belt maintenance craftsman, so he asked Chuntian Zhengyi to contact the belt maintenance craftsman on his behalf and help him do things.

In exchange, he could pay Chuntian Zhengyi thirty kilograms of gold for the repair and maintenance of the belt.

I have to say that after hearing what this guy said, Haruta Masayoshi was really a little bit amused.

First of all, this guy is sure that he is from the country. Haruta Masayoshi can't help but think of the days when he was making a living in Tokyo before he won the belt. The authentic Tokyo native with the old Tokyo Zhenghuang Banner and the long lines on his forehead, who looked at everyone as a country boy, is so arrogant that it makes people laugh when they think about it now.

It's just fun.

However, in addition to being happy, the other party's conditions did make Haruta Masayoshi somewhat tempted.

After all, the starting price is ten kilograms of gold, which is indeed a bit difficult to get. Haruta Masayoshi was even seriously considering using the name of "Knight of Conviction" as collateral, buying on credit first, and paying back slowly after the belt is repaired - but now someone came to his door and said that he would directly cover the cost of the service of thirty kilograms.

Thirty kilograms of gold, according to the current market price, is worth hundreds of millions of yen, a huge asset that ordinary people can never get even if they work hard for their entire lives. It would be a lie to say that I am not tempted.

Moreover, the other party's request did not sound excessive. It just asked me to act as a middleman and help him communicate with the belt maintenance craftsman - it was just a matter of talking and there was no harm. It seemed acceptable no matter how I looked at it, right?

So after much consideration, Haruta Masayoshi took on this cooperation.

Of course, this is also out of confidence in his own strength. Even if there is something fishy, Haruta Masayoshi can completely control the situation - although the belt will not respond to him nine times out of ten, but if he tries a few more times, he will succeed...

......

After agreeing to cooperate, the other party gave Chuntian Zhengyi a card and put a lot of money into it as an advance deposit. With this money, Chuntian Zhengyi naturally didn't have to work hard. Then the other party told Chuntian Zhengyi the real location of the belt maintenance craftsman, and said that as long as Chuntian Zhengyi contacted the craftsman and helped the Venerable to successfully make the connection, then thirty kilograms of gold would be presented immediately!

I have to say that as a person with superpowers, it is easier to make money in Tokyo than in the countryside. I worked so hard to enforce justice outside of Tokyo, and in the end I only lived a relatively prosperous life. But not long after arriving in Tokyo, I made hundreds of millions...

Just like that, Haruta Masayoshi began to go to the secret base frequently, and one time he met Shiratori Yuei who went to the base to clean up.

At first, Haruta Masayoshi thought that Shiratori Yuei was the craftsman and was very excited, but later he realized that he had made a mistake...

In fact, when he went to the base this time, Haruta Masayoshi still had no hope.

After all, it’s almost the New Year, who would rush back at this time?

result......

When he arrived outside the base, before he went into the passage, Haruta Masayoshi heard from afar the voices of Shiratori Yuei talking to a man who sounded gentle and steady in the laboratory.

For some reason, when he heard the other person's voice, Haruta Masayoshi instinctively felt a strange sense of familiarity - but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't seem to know anyone with this voice. This kind of person, just by listening to the voice, he could imagine the image of a gentle, calm and generous upper-class person.

I have never had the chance to meet such a person, either in the past or now, right?

Of course, more importantly, Shiratori Yuei clearly called the other party...

Mr. Su Su!

Belt maintenance craftsman Su Su!

This guy is finally back?!

With some excitement in his heart, Haruta Masayoshi couldn't wait to jump down the passage without even stepping on the stairs. After jumping in, Haruta Masayoshi saw Shiratori Yuei holding a mop in his hand and chatting with a middle-aged man wearing a newspaper hat and holding a broom in his hand.

The jumping Haruta Masayoshi naturally attracted the attention of the two men. After seeing Haruta Masayoshi, the middle-aged man holding the broom obviously raised his eyebrows, with a look that seemed a little... complicated?

"Oh? Shiratori, this is Haruta Masayoshi, right?"

206. The curtain opens

Speak of the devil and he shall appear. I was just talking to Shiratori Yuei about Haruta Masayoshi when this guy showed up.

So in surprise, Su Su couldn't help but reveal a little bit of emotion on his face.

However, Chuntian Zhengyi obviously would not make the bizarre association from Su Su's expression that this guy was the mastermind. Looking at Su Su's seemingly complicated expression, Chuntian Zhengyi's only guess was that this guy might have recognized him.

After all, I am not wearing a mask now, and my appearance is not confidential information. I showed my face in the live broadcast of the media, and many people know what I look like.

Or, isn't it strange that someone like Shiratori Yuei didn't recognize himself even though he knew he was a knight?

"That's right, I'm Chuntian Zhengyi, Mr. Su Su, I've finally waited for you, please forgive me for disturbing you in the future."

Of course, no matter what he was thinking in his heart, Kasuga Masayoshi naturally greeted him politely and bowed slightly.

So Su Su responded with a gentle smile.

"No, Mr. Haruta, you're too polite... I'm cleaning here, so it's a bit messy, but if Mr. Haruta doesn't mind, why don't you tell me about the problem you encountered..."

I have to say that there is actually a big gap between the Haruta Masayoshi at this moment and the Haruta Masayoshi in Su Su's impression - compared to the Haruta Masayoshi in his impression, the Haruta Masayoshi now should be considered to have... grown up?

Su Su remembered that when he first approached him, Chuntian Zhengyi was still a little immature, not in terms of appearance, but in terms of temperament - at that time, Chuntian Zhengyi was like a college student who had just stepped out of an ivory tower, was kind to everything, firmly believed that good people were the majority in the world, and could easily give trust to a stranger.

And the justice of Haruta's actions afterwards was indeed like this - like a passionate young man who had gained power and was full of energy, he wanted to use his own power to punish evil, until...

Committed the Ikebukuro case.

During that period, Su Su had never seen Haruta Masayoshi in person, but judging from his behavior reported in the news and the subsequent Kita Ayase incident, Haruta Masayoshi during that period was more like a confused person. The power to easily dominate the life and death of others made Haruta Masayoshi lose some of his self-discipline. The power that no one could check and balance also made him somewhat intolerant of disobedience and opposition, just like he killed Coward in a rage just because he was ambushed - a slight change in his thoughts at this time might very well determine whether he would be a Superman or a Homelander in the future.

Later, Su Su didn’t know what Chuntian Zhengyi had experienced and who he met, but there was no doubt that Chuntian Zhengyi was now the Knight of Conviction - maybe someone helped him at that time, or maybe something held his heart, but in short, he did not become a "beast" who indulged his desires unscrupulously, but remained a "human".

The difference between humans and animals actually lies in "restraints" and "shackles". Humans use shackles to restrain themselves, while animals only follow their instinctive desires.

Today, Chuntian Zhengyi seems to have found the path he firmly believed in after experiencing confusion, and then practiced that path down to earth...

idealist.

However, at this moment, the idealist was taking off his coat with a slightly excited look, and then showing the belt around his waist to Su Su.

"It's like this, Mr. Su Su, my belt seems to have entered... a deep sleep? In short, it often stops responding to me..."

......

......

In fact, just as Su Su expected, the potion in Chuntian Zhengyi's belt was used up.

Chuntian Zhengyi said that he could respond once out of ten times, and that was just luck. The remaining medicine swayed back and forth and was just sucked by the needle and injected into his body. But Su Su estimated that if he wanted to start it again, it would be useless even if he shook it like a windmill.

Because the medicine was indeed completely used up.

And maybe it was because Haruta Masayoshi had become a superhuman, the injection head hidden in the belt was twisted beyond recognition, as if it had been frequently pierced into hard leather, the needle was about to burst - plus the frequent battles had caused a lot of bumps and scratches on the belt...

Normally, a belt like this would end up in a museum or a garbage dump. In any case, it would have to be scrapped.

It's hard for Chuntian Zhengyi to be willing to repair it...

But of course, Su Su certainly couldn't say that, and it was even more impossible for him to suddenly take out a new belt and say to Haruta Masayoshi, "Let me give you a new one." So after getting the belt, Su Su just frowned hard, and without saying a word, he hurried to the test bench on the side, put the belt on the table and turned on the light.
