Chapter 2 - The Will of the Dead 1
update icon Updated at 2025/2/2 2:10:12

I came home with a fragrant bun that was practically a grab bag of hash browns.

Uh, wrong.

I was a grabby potato bun when I came home with a potato bun, hmm.

I had to watch while everyone ate because I stole one on the way. But ah, Uesugi Yuuki has been eating while peeking at me, seems to be the heart (can) pain (pity) me, while everyone is focused on eating potato pancakes to watch the drama, quietly came to my side.

"Brother, how about this remaining half for you to eat?"

"No need Arigato, I've already eaten, thank you oh~"

I have to say that Uesugi Yuuki is already my little angel although she is still just a sixth grade loli, although technically I've only known her for less than a day.

You can't imagine what a treat it is to have a little girl come up to you and give you a "holler" when you accidentally bruise your knee.

As a result of the little angel to give me a lot of energy, plus I have nothing to do in the evening, I decided to go out to forge (hitch) (accost) a (girl) under (sub).

There may be people who question why I, as a student, can still have time to go out and fool around at night. Well, it's actually quite simple, most of the student's time is consumed in the classroom, but if you can end up in school, in fact, the remaining free time is still quite a lot. Even "Ziongzong", the personality I created, can easily handle some of the schoolwork, let alone my own body.

After saying hello to my family, I went out for a run in my gym clothes.

After three or four months of no systematic exercise, this body is already far less fit than when I entered slumber.

Even with youth as the principal, the body still declines at an unacceptably fast rate.

And no matter what kind of exercise is to be done, jogging is applicable, among all forms of exercise, jogging is the most versatile.

I ran and ran in the dark, but I didn't see a single person.

I think there are not too many people like me who come out to run after dark.

When I thought so, around the corner immediately ran out of a similar.

I immediately got so excited that I wanted to rush up and ask him from which mental hospital he escaped, oh no, is there any interest in jogging with me.

Then I made a new discovery, the companion is not one, but two, although the distance is still far away and dark and dim street lights, but I still see that it is a girl my age and a kindergarten level children.

They were walking.

Then, when the girl came to the streetlight with the child, I saw her face and after searching "Ziongzong's memory" I realized that I knew this girl.

Kurashige Yui, a first year student at Higashi Ken High School and school librarian.

The question is, who is that little kid next to her, her sister? I don't believe that there is such a thing as "a first-year high school student with a daughter in kindergarten", but if it happens, firstly, I will take the father of the child to court myself, and secondly, I will greet the author who wrote such a story.

"Good evening."

I waved at her, and she noticed me, smiled at me somewhat shyly, and then picked up the infant girl beside her, and then ......

flew away.

Wait, why didn't she come over with a smile, but ran away for her life?

What is she doing here?

I thought about it, but did not figure out why she ran, even if she was shy, there is no need to do this, right?

Just when I wanted to go after her and ask what was going on, another person ran out of the alley on the other side.

She was wearing a white long-sleeved tracksuit, headphones in both ears, and a cap with a searchlight on her head, so she was quite professional for a night jogger.

Also, she was kind of someone I knew, so my attention was instantly turned to her.

"Yo!"

I waved at her, but it didn't get her attention at all; after all, I was standing outside of her lighting range, plus she had her headphones on.

"Good evening, Shirasu Yu."

So I had to block into her path of advancement, and now she finally did notice me.

"Huh, what are you doing here? By the way, what's your name ...... uh ......?"

Bai Xu Yu did not stop because she encountered me, she ran in place and looked at me with a crooked head and a puzzled face.

If, earlier, I had not been easily thrown out by her in the judo ring, but had relied on my strength to overwhelm her and thus defeat her, her expression would be much different now, right?

But what would be the point of that.

"My name is Ziongzong Uesugi, I'm out running like you, what a coincidence."

"Running? Alone? This late at night?"

Bai Xu Yu stared at me with wide eyes, as if looking at a psychopath as a new wonder.

"Yeah, what's wrong with that?"

I didn't even want to spit out that she was doing the same thing as me.

"There's no problem, just run, if nothing else I'll go first?"

She blinked her eyes, her face innocent and uninterested in me, which made me lose all intention to fight with her

"No, I just want to ask, you came all the way from the middle of the capital district to run here, isn't it hard?"

"Hmph~ You guessed wrong!"

The question was a windfall that caught her attention, and Bai Xu Yu's eyes lit up as she began to talk incessantly.

"I didn't come directly from the Central District! I started from the Central District, ran to the Lower District, ran along the Kamogawa River to the Upper District, and then ran back to the Central District towards Nijo Castle. Amazing! Hey, hey!"

Bai Xu Yu said while I calculated the distance, this lap to run down to six or seven kilometers, and still in this late winter is still a cold night above zero degrees, a third grade girl in middle school, alone.

This is more than impressive, but it puts my three-kilometer evening rehab program, which I just started today, to shame.

"Is this jogging for judo?"

"NO~NO~NO~"

Bai Xu Yu waved her index finger at me with a smile on her face, incidentally, she is still running in place, and her breathing is very even and she doesn't look fatigued, then, she said confidently ......

"It's for martial arts, I'm the man to become a martial artist!"

Oh ~ so it's not just judo, she loves the big category of martial arts ah ...... wait, it seems like there is something wrong.

Did I mishear something?

"Man?"

"Hmm?"

To my jaw-dropping questioning, Bai Xu Yu just blinked blankly, and then, it seems, started to recall what she herself had just said.

"Oh~ So that's what you're asking~"

Under the bright moonlight, Bai Xu Yu's dawning realization didn't relax me in the least, but made me even more nervous.

The thing is, if she came to a sentence "actually people are a boy, eh hey ~", then I can only poke their own eyes have to warn future generations.

But Bai Xu Yu can not be a male ah! And then again, her (his) chest that is not big but also at least a well-developed chest, but the ironclad evidence ah.

"Accidentally said wrong, of course I am going to become a martial artist woman!"

Bai Xu Yu corrected in a serious manner.

This is too thick nerves, right? A man can say woman by mistake?

I'm not a child who just learned English, he (he) and she (she) stupidly confused, startled me in a cold sweat.

And, as she corrected her mistake, it made me suspicious of her (his) true gender.

It's better not to get involved with people of this unknown gender.

"How can it not be a female, that's right, I wish you good luck in martial arts."

"So, if it's okay, I'll go first?"

"Well, be safe."

In the night, I watched this healthy and lively chick run away step by step, with infinite feelings in my heart, this is really a turbulent era.

In the old days, there was Mulan's speech, which said, the male rabbit feet fluttering, the female rabbit eyes lost. Two rabbits walking on the ground, can identify me as male and female.

Today there is a sex change, which said, boys wearing skirts, girls double-headed dragon, men and women wearing clothes, how can I tell if it is male and female.

(Note: Double-headed Dragon, Double-headed Dragon is a neutral intellectual hero based on Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne's multiplayer real-time matchmaking custom map DotA (Defense of the Ancients), located in the Twilight Tavern. (Can learn Ice and Fire, Frozen Path, Liquid Fire and Flame Incinerator.)

Bai Xu Yu ah Bai Xu Yu, what kind of thick nerve is it to get your gender wrong?

I dared not think further down the road, clear my head and continue jogging with my hands and feet.

The unknown night is too dangerous, I hurried to run three kilometers back home.
