awareness of existence

When Gangji and Yuyue walked into the underground boxing ring with the naughty gangsters in the middle of the night, even though they had made some psychological preparations, they were still slightly startled by the scene in front of them.

The scope of the underground boxing ring is not large, at best it is a medium size underground warehouse. The ring of the boxing match is placed in the middle, and the corner of the ring can hardly be seen from the seats where Tsuna Yoshi and Uzuki are. The reason why they can determine the location Thanks to the brighter fluorescent lights on the top of the ring.

However, in such a small place, the people who came to watch the match really surrounded the scene densely, and in the darkness of the match watching area, Tsunayoshi and Uzuki were not only filled with all kinds of sweat and alcohol smells , mixed with angry curses from the onlookers far away from the ring, one after another, making the two of them very uncomfortable to hear.

Yuyue has been learning kendo since she was a child, loves music, and is a quiet person, so the scene in front of her will naturally make him feel very unhappy.And Gang Ji is not much better, not to mention the blank childhood memories before, even the days when he accepted the task with everyone, and they rarely accept underground activities. disturbed.

But at this moment, some different voices sounded next to Gangji's ears.

"Hey! What did Heiyan do today! He's so inexperienced! His opponent is a novice, okay!!!"

"Cut, you idiot, don't talk nonsense if you haven't seen it! What a novice, it's obviously King Kong who came back to life after a month of recuperation!"

"King Kong King Kong? Since when did such a character come into being! Don't be so fucking blind to me! I made a lot of money! If that Heiyan is abolished! I will kill him!"

"Hmph, it's up to you? If Heiyan is useless, he can blow you up!"

"Damn! Are you fucking looking for a beating? I'm going to kill you first!!!"

"you dare!"

"Hey! You two are crazy! Get out if you want to fight, don't disturb me watching the game!"

"What the hell are you talking about! How dare you call me crazy! What's the point of this kind of competition!"

"What do you mean! Ah!? This kind of game? Watching this kind of game, it's much more enjoyable to see you fighting each other!"

"Tch, it's really tasteless! Only when that man is around, this kind of competition can make people feel excited!"

"That man? Ah, are you talking about that boxing idiot who got out a long time ago? He just killed one person, and he said he never boxed again. Hahaha, it really makes people laugh out loud! "

"That man with the fist of glory, Nakel! How can these idiots with long muscles but no brains be able to compare with him? The fist pressure alone is not on the same level! You really haven't seen it."

"Where do you think you are so good! I have studied for a few years longer than you, okay?"

"What's there to show off after reading Zero Duck Eggs for a few more years!"

"..."

The chattering and arguing not far away became louder and louder, but after that, the unsavory words were automatically filtered out by Tsuna, and he just pondered over the words in his mind back and forth——Nake, the man with the fist of light you.

Naker?Could it be that the name was changed?But if the priest had been a boxer before, the previous swift action could be explained.But did such a kind person really beat his opponent to death in such a place...

Full of doubts, Gangji fell into deep thought, while Yuyue at the side was very worried about Gangji who suddenly lost his mind. Now the crowded crowd keeps inserting, making the distance between them farther and farther. Going down, I can't protect his safety at all!Remembering the promise she made to G before leaving, Yuyue finally made up her mind to leave here with Giotto first tonight.

Yuyue tried to squeeze not far away from Gang Ji, stretched her arms and barely caught Gang Ji's lapel, pulled it hard a few times, making Gang Ji's eyes turn to herself, and said: "Go back tonight, Giotto, it's not safe .”

Although the noisy crowd couldn't make Gangji hear clearly, but seeing Yuyue's mouth shape talking to himself with a wry smile, he understood that his impromptu decision made Yuyue embarrassing.Although I really want to see the ring in the underground boxing arena, but standing so far away, I probably won't be able to see anything tonight.Thinking of this, he nodded to Yuyue to show that he understood, and retreated to the exit together with him.

When the two of them went in, it was considered easy. After all, they drifted with the tide, and if they didn't try hard to squeeze, they would be pushed in by the people behind, but getting out was another matter entirely.Face, hands, shoulders, there is no part of the whole body that is not crushed. It really goes in vertically and comes out horizontally.His hair was disheveled, his clothes were crumpled, and he looked very embarrassed.

"Hoohoo, this is really..." Yuyue wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked back at the crowded crowd, she was speechless for a long time, and just smiled bitterly with Gangji, expressing her helplessness.

"You're alright, Yuzuki."

"En. I'm fine." Facing Gangji's worries, Yuyue straightened her clothes and asked with a smile, "What about you? Are you okay? Did you hear anything?"

"En..." Gangji paused slightly, thinking about what Naker had heard, but because he was not sure, he decided to hide it first, and responded with a smile: "I didn't know what I wanted to know, tonight Just go back first, you can't tell G about these things. Ugetsu."

"Of course, I don't want to be taught by him by the collar." Yuyue smiled wryly and recalled G's temper, so that her treatment would not be worse than Italian tomato fried noodles, she might as well pretend that nothing happened tonight.

However, at the entrance of this noisy underground boxing ring, Gangji and Yuyue felt a condensed breath coming from the left hand side at the same time, murderous!

"Who!" The two turned around at the same time, staring at their surroundings, raising their guard.But I saw a man in black standing at the entrance of the alley in front of him, his body was tightly covered by a black cloak, and his face was also covered with a black cloth, making it difficult for people to see all the features of his face and body clearly under the cold moonlight. .

is it him……

Yuyue moved her right foot forward, put her right hand on the hilt of her waist, leaned forward slightly, looked at the opponent squarely, and stood firmly in front of Gangji.

"Yuyue..."

"Giotto, don't worry, I will protect you."

The scene in front of him made Gang Ji a little surprised. When he and G performed missions together in the past, G often did the same, but he didn't expect Yuyue and himself to do the same for the first mission.

In Tsuna's opinion, this is not a good habit, but I always feel that all this is so natural, as if there was such a solid back standing in front of me, saying a firm oath to myself in a relaxed tone, Makes people feel at ease and warm...

However, just when Gangji was stunned, Yuyue did not relax at all, her eyes were locked on the figure of the man, and she said in a deep voice: "Who are you? What is your purpose?"

Facing Yuyue's questioning, the man in black didn't speak, but immediately put away the murderous aura that aroused the attention of the two, pointed sideways to the dark alley behind him, and then ran in which direction first.

Yuyue frowned slightly, and murmured: "Is he asking us to follow?"

"It seems so." Gang Ji promised Yuyue's words, walked out from behind Yuyue, and chased after the man in black without hesitation!When Yuyue came to her senses and wanted to catch Gangji, she was a step too late.He had no choice but to let go of the handle of the knife, speed up to follow, and shouted while running: "Wait! Giotto! This may be a trap!"

But Gang Ji shook and shouted in front: "Since he has put away his murderous aura, it means that he has no malicious intentions, and he may just want to attract our attention."

"But..." Yuyue still felt uneasy, but she saw Gang Ji running in front of her and turned around, and smiled at herself: "Besides, with you here, there must be no problem!"

That figure, that smile became clear under the capture of the moonlight; that sentence, that kind of trust penetrated into people's hearts under the outline of silence.

The corner of Yuyue's mouth curled up into a smile unconsciously, she was right, obviously she had already made an oath - her sword would surely break through all dangers for them.

In the dark night, three figures run and sneak under the moonlight.I don't know how many streets and alleys they turned, Gangji and others followed the man in black to get rid of the shackles of the narrow street, and rushed to the corner of the suddenly bright main street, and it was Riise who sneaked out in front of them!

At this time Riise was dirty all over, as if he had fought with someone on the ground, not to mention some scratches on his head and arms, and even a few strands of straw stuck to his hair.Moreover, his overall state was also very wrong, curled up in a dark corner with his arms around his fat body, trembling unceasingly, whimpering from time to time, like a weak and helpless little beast.

"Rise! Why are you here?" Seeing this, Tsuna ran over without thinking too much, wanting to check on Riise's condition, but unexpectedly, Riise yelled tremblingly: "Don't come over! Don't Come here! Don't grab me! I'm just looking for something!"

"Rise?" Gang Ji stopped, looking at Riise's reaction in surprise.I saw Riser's eyes open, but there was no spirit in them, and the tears were rushing down, looking extremely terrified.The whole person spoke incoherently: "Ri...Rise, I just want to find the cross, yes...you are good kids, you are bad guys, don't come here...don't grab me like this...don't look at me like that... Don't... take me away..."

Hearing this, Yuyue and Gang Ji were taken aback for a moment, and then sorted out the clues.It seems that Riise sneaked out to find the cross and met the trafficker, and the injuries all over his body were obviously the marks left after the violent struggle.

At this time, the man in black standing beside him walked towards Riise, regardless of Riise's fear and retreat, bent down and hugged him tightly in his arms.Riise's pupils shrank, and he unexpectedly quieted down in the man's arms.

The scene suddenly fell into silence, and Yuyue and Tsuna did not stop the man in black's behavior, because since Riise was able to stand here safe and sound, it was very likely that the man in black saved him.But, why does this person know that Riise has something to do with them?

Not long after the two embraced, the man in black put Riise down.Riser sobbed, and shouted nonchalantly: "Sen... Sen..."

However, before Riise finished speaking, the man in black raised his finger and put it near his mouth, signaling him not to speak.Then he took out an object from his arms and hung it around his neck.

The rough texture, the wish for return, Riise tightly held the cross and pressed it against his face, gritted his teeth and was speechless.The man in black stood up, patted Riise on the head, looked back at Gangji and Yuyue, then turned and ran away.

"Wait!" Yuyue, who had been watching, wanted to catch up. He hadn't figured out why the man wanted to help them, but was stopped by Gang Ji.

Gang Ji watched the back of the man in black leave without speaking, but his golden eyes showed a strange color under the cover of the moonlight.It wasn't until the figure of the man disappeared into the night that Tsuna turned to stare at the cross on Riise's chest.

Blessing to return...
