The next morning, Hoshino Gogawa boarded the express train to Tokyo with his bags and luggage. Before boarding, he had already informed Saiki Kusuo and Sakamaki Izayoi that their sparring plan was temporarily canceled.
"Da da……"
Before he even finished texting his parents on his phone, Hoshino Gokawa started browsing all sorts of things online, looking at anything that interested him, since he had nothing else to do anyway.
However, it was precisely because Hoshino Gokawa was a young boy carrying large bags and staring at his phone without looking anywhere else that he was targeted by a thief.
"Heh...heh...this kid looks like he comes from a rich family. He shouldn't even realize it if I take something when he's not looking."
Seeing the well-dressed young man sitting in the chair, seemingly absorbed in his own world, a thief, pretending to have a sore throat and wearing a mask, quickly hatched a plan.
So he pretended to walk past Hoshino Gokawa, and then, when he wasn't looking, he tried to grab a bag and walk on.
"..."
Hoshino Gokawa, who had put down his phone and activated his Superman-like visual senses, quietly watched the other person and slowly reached out his hand towards a bag next to him at a speed a thousand times slower than usual.
"I never thought I'd see a thief again. It's really strange."
Hoshino Gogawa is quite rare to find someone like this, after all, he has handled countless cases to date, and none of them were simple; at the very least, they involved murderers.
Unexpectedly, he ended up encountering the worst character who was supposed to appear at the beginning of the story.
However strange it may be, it doesn't mean he would just watch the other person take his things. However, Hoshino Gokawa needs to know how to handle it, since theft is not a capital offense.
"Hmm... I'll let you experience being trapped in a maze a few times before you turn yourself in."
Hoshino Gokawa, who was thinking about how to resolve the matter, did not make any move. As a result, the thief withdrew his hand halfway, then showed an undisguised look of fear on his face, covered his mouth and dared not utter a word, and then silently left with his head down.
You could say he's more like a mentally ill person than a thief.
When it was time to get off the bus, Hoshino Gogawa stepped out and saw the person who had tried to steal his things. He rushed towards the nearest guardhouse with a look of terror on his face, which attracted the attention of many passersby.
Chapter 210 The Fujiwara Family
After getting off the express train, Hoshino Gokawa found the Fujiwara Chika family's residence shortly after a brief delay, based on the address sent to him by his parents on their mobile phones. This residence is located in Shibuya Ward, Tokyo.
Logically speaking, they should be able to live in a better place, but perhaps because they are from a political family, they live here to avoid suspicion.
Of course, it doesn't really matter. After all, there's a saying: "A mountain is not sacred because of its height, but because of the immortals dwelling there; water is not sacred because of its depth, but because of the dragons living in it."
The key point is who lives there, not what the environment is like.
Even if it's just an apartment, as long as a big shot lives there, everyone else will praise him to the skies.
"Wu Chuan has so much stuff, let your aunt help you carry it!"
Fujiwara Manho, who opened the door, was also Fujiwara Chika's mother. Upon seeing Hoshino Gokawa, she immediately urged him to come inside and handed over his belongings, as the large and small bags he was carrying looked very heavy.
However, although Hoshino Gogawa appears to be carrying large and small bags, he has actually fixed them to his body to make it look like he is carrying them. The reason for this is to prevent the plastic bags from breaking accidentally if he uses too much force.
After all, plastic bags aren't very secure to hold; even an ordinary person could break them while carrying them.
"It's alright, my Aunt Wan Sui is very strong. Also, this is a gift my parents asked me to bring you, please accept it."
Upon seeing that it was Fujiwara Maho who opened the door, Hoshino Gokawa handed the beautiful woman in front of him another bag containing a beautifully packaged gift box.
Since it's a gift, it naturally has to look nice. As for the other two plastic bags, they contain some strange things that Hoshino Gokawa bought on the way, and most of them are food.
Since this is Tokyo, there should be a decent food street, so Hoshino Gokawa stopped there to buy some things before coming back.
"How can this be so embarrassing..."
After some pleasantries, Hoshino Gokawa followed the other party into the Fujiwara Chika family mansion. Although it wasn't one of the best in the political circle, it was still much better than his own house. However, Hoshino Gokawa wasn't too bothered by this.
Of course, that's not the point. The point is that as soon as he entered the house, he saw a rather shocking scene: Fujiwara Toyomi, the eldest daughter of the Fujiwara family, was sitting at the dining table eating in her pajamas. What's even more shocking is that the pajamas were slightly see-through.
Fortunately, Hoshino Gokawa was able to control himself; otherwise, any normal person his age would probably be too embarrassed to face such a scene.
"Fengshi, your cousin is here!"
Fujiwara Maho was somewhat angry at her eldest daughter's current state, but she was also helpless because they had been so focused on their work that they hadn't paid enough attention to their eldest daughter, resulting in this situation.
It was precisely because they learned from this lesson that they set some rules for Fujiwara Chika and Fujiwara Moeha, such as forbidding them from reading strange books or watching strange TV dramas.
"It's my cousin! Come here and let your big sister give you a hug."
Fujiwara Yutaka, who was eating a vegetable salad at the table, subconsciously looked up and saw Hoshino Gokawa's tall figure among his peers after hearing this. Then, for some unknown reason, she wanted to hug Hoshino Gokawa. Perhaps it was just being silly, or perhaps she was just having fun, or perhaps her brain was a little fuzzy from just waking up.
"No, cousin, men and women shouldn't touch each other."
However, Hoshino Gosaku easily dodged her attempt to hug him. A normal boy might accept it, but not Hoshino Gosaku. He didn't like being hugged right now, as if he were still a normal child.
"Hmm...so stingy, won't even let your older sister hug you."
Fujiwara Toyomi, who was dodged by Hoshino Gokawa, pouted and complained, but did not take any further action, so it seems that he had listened to him.
"Toyoshi, go change out of your pajamas and help Mom entertain Gokawa. Mom is going to the nearby market to buy some fresh ingredients later." After all, since their nephew is here, the Fujiwara family has to treat him well.
"OK, all right."
Fujiwara Toyomi had no objection to this and obediently went upstairs to change his clothes.
"Wu Chuan, would you like to sit on the sofa for a while, have some fruit, and watch TV? Your aunt will be back soon."
"no problem."
When it comes to staying at someone else's house, Hoshino Gokawa isn't too picky. After all, it's a visit to relatives, so who would act like a fool and pick and choose?
Not long after, Fujiwara Maho went out with shopping bags, while Hoshino Gokawa sat on the sofa and casually watched TV. Although it was casual, there was actually a general framework: it was either anime or some decent movies. If there was nothing to watch, he would just play on his phone.
slap... slap...
Then, after Hoshino Gokawa had been watching TV for almost ten minutes, Fujiwara Toyomi finally came downstairs and walked over. There was more than one person there. It was unclear whether the two sisters were woken up by their elder sister or by the TV, but judging from their clothes, it was probably the former.
Wow! Why are you here so early!
Because they were the same age, only Fujiwara Chika among the three sisters showed no sign of politeness.
"I felt it was a bit impolite to keep you waiting, so I came quite early, Chika... cousin, Moeyo."
It's clear that Hoshino Gogawa is still somewhat conflicted about the fact that Fujiwara Chika is older than him; in a sense, it's one of the few things that can affect his mindset.
"Oh... I can tell you're a little unhappy calling her 'cousin'. Come on, cousin Wuchuan, call her 'cousin' again."
Upon hearing Hoshino Gokawa pause when he mentioned the word "cousin," Fujiwara Chika seemed to instantly recall something interesting and quickly ran to Hoshino Gokawa's side to tease him.
“…Cousin Chika (in Troisi’s words)”
Hoshino Gokawa, who was somewhat reluctant to speak, suddenly thought of something, so he cleared his throat and switched to the language of an American indigenous tribe that had been scalped.
As for why he knows this language, it's simply because of high technology. By eating a piece of candy, he can master most of the languages currently recorded on this planet. Of course, he could also learn it himself, but that would take too much time, so Hoshino Gokawa ate one.
"???????"
All three of them were completely baffled.
Excuse me, what are you saying?
Even Fujiwara Chika, who is fluent in multiple languages, couldn't tell where this passage was from.
Chapter 211 Chatting
"Torva is a tribal language of the Native Americans."
Hoshino Gokawa didn't try to hide anything from Fujiwara Chika's questions and explained it to them directly.
"……real or fake."
However, because the language was so obscure that she herself had hardly ever heard of it, Fujiwara Chika felt for a moment that her cousin was fooling her.
"So what if it's real or fake? As long as you can't understand me calling you, that's fine."
Hoshino Gokawa didn't care about the truth hypothesis, since his goal was simply to make Fujiwara Chika unable to understand him calling her "cousin".
"...There's such a thing!"
Hoshino Gokawa's actions did indeed surprise Fujiwara Chika; regardless of whether it was true or false, as long as her goal was achieved, that was all that mattered.
"Of course, Chika... my cousin (Trowa's words)."
And just to be on the safe side, so that Fujiwara Chika wouldn't be talking about herself later, Hoshino Gokawa used Trojan for the words "cousin" but kept the rest in his native language.
"Um...why can you call Fengshi 'cousin' and Mengye 'cousin' but not me 'cousin'?"
Before Hoshino Gokawa arrived, Fujiwara Chika, who had already planned to use her cousin's identity to tease him, completely lost her composure and even forgot her original plan.
"Because we're not that much older than each other, we're both twelve, except you're five months older than me. To put it simply, I feel a little awkward calling you my cousin."
This time, Hoshino Gokawa did not use the language of that indigenous tribe to address her.
"..."
Just as Fujiwara Chika was feeling down, a sudden flash of inspiration struck her.
"Wait! I have a question! What grade are you in in junior high school?"
"First grade."
Even if Hoshino Gokawa didn't tell her, Fujiwara Chika could have gotten the answer from her parents, so he might as well tell her.
But the result ------------------------------
"hey-hey."
Upon learning that Hoshino Gokawa was a first-year junior high school student, Fujiwara Chika instantly revealed a smug and mischievous smile. If it weren't for her ladylike restraint, she might have cracked her ears.
It was Fujiwara Chika's mischievous smile that made Hoshino Gokawa instantly realize something, and his expression gradually became serious again, or rather, he couldn't be happy anymore.
"Don't tell me you're in second grade."
"Bingo! You got it right! Call me senior!"
Since the other party was unwilling to call her "cousin," Fujiwara Chika decided to try a different approach and have her call her "senior." It's important to know that the senior-junior culture is very strong in Japanese schools, and disrespecting an "senior" could result in being labeled as disrespectful.
"Ha, you think I would say that?"
The instant Fujiwara Chika finished speaking, Hoshino Gokawa interrupted her with an inappropriate second half of the sentence.
"..."
The scene immediately fell silent again.
"I've beaten up a bunch of senior students since elementary school, and none of them dared to act arrogantly in front of me because of their status."
If the senior-junior relationship is a cultural phenomenon in Japanese schools, then Hoshino Gokawa utterly despised it.
As for why he brought this up, it was simply because he was provoked by Fujiwara Chika. He didn't know why Hoshino Gokawa was so unhappy about being younger than her, even though Sakamaki Izayoi was older than him!
Of course, it's also possible that boys don't care much about how they address each other, or that male chauvinism is influencing him. In any case, Hoshino Gokawa is just unhappy that he has to call Fujiwara Chika "elder sister".
"Hey, Wuchuan, have you ever been in a fight at school?"
Intrigued by Hoshino Gokawa's words, Fujiwara Toyomi couldn't help but ask him, since Hoshino Gokawa's clean and fair appearance didn't seem like the type to fight.
"Yes, there was a bunch of kids in elementary school who bullied others because of their height, so I couldn't stand it and beat them all up."
As he spoke, Hoshino Gokawa gestured with his fist.
"Let me see."
Unexpectedly, driven by curiosity, Fujiwara Yutaka actually touched Hoshino Satoru's right arm, and she could indeed feel that the other party had muscles, and quite large ones at that.
“…Fengshi, your fingernail poked me.”
Although he felt no pain, the fact that a woman was touching him reminded Hoshino Gosaka of the time when he was a child and his mother would hug him while he was naked. That feeling... was truly shameful, and that is why Hoshino Gosaka felt averse to women touching his body.
Hoshino Gokawa even regretted that he was born with consciousness. He thought how wonderful it would be if he could have lived a few years in a daze like other novel protagonists, without having to go through the experience of needing help to drink milk and poop.
Of course, I'm not incapable of solving this myself, but what if it shows abnormalities so early on?!
Keep in mind that babies need to stay in the hospital for a week after birth! If you don't need to eat, drink, or relieve yourself during that time, anyone with a brain can tell something's wrong!
So, in order to avoid being sent to some strange laboratory, Hoshino Gokawa had no choice but to act like a normal baby, needing to eat, drink, and relieve himself.
"Oh! I'm sorry."
Unaware that her fingernail could snap if she pressed too hard, Fujiwara Toyomi assumed the other person was in pain and withdrew it.
"It doesn't matter……"
Hoshino Gokawa, who put his right hand down again, said that he didn't care.
