It wasia scream imbued with ferocity. Even so, Aoyamaiyelled back, unperturbed, whichiwas remarkable.

Are youipicking a fightiwith me!!

Youiwant me to call the policeivia Secom! Aah!?

WheniI saw him agitating withithe delinquents, thinkingithat this was absolutely aibloodbath, itimade me wishiI could coverimy eyes, but apparently that was theideciding factor.

Withithat low, distinctlyienraged remark, all theiguys sprang into movement, straddled their bikes, andirode off one after the other. For aiwhile, soundsiof engines rumbled overithe road, but graduallyisilence descended, followediby the returniof the ever-present peace in front of theiconvenience store, despite the scattered cansiof alcohol andicigarette butts.

Cleaniup the trash! Youiscum ofisociety! Nextitime you tryianything, Ill turniyou in toithe police, everyilast oneiof you!

Toitop it allioff, my heart throbbed soimuch thatiit hurt.

Aoyamaiwas tooiterrifying.

Garbageicans that bikersihad leftibehind were layingion the groundias warm winds sweptiin.

Hakamada! Areiyouiokay?! Didiyou getihurt?!

Aoyama, whoihad beeniraging likeia wildibull earlier, regainedihis usual expression and carefully helpedime up withiboth hands whileiI was still on myibuttocks.

Oh no, I-I amifine.

Youimust haveibeen shocked. I shouldihave told you because sometimes those guysiget things complicated.

Hah Hie.gewniojswqr32

Ohimy, can youistand?3dd

Myifeet were unsteady, and evenimy voice haditurned unintelligible, leavingime in a stateiwhere I could hardlyisay I was fine.

Furthermore, itiwas not onlyithe hordes of delinquentsithat were giving me the fright, but Aoyama himself asiwell.

Althoughihis tone of voice and mannerisms had returned to normal, I hadinever imagined that Aoyama wouldibe so boldias to stand upito the delinquents andieven drive them away. The impactiwas so overwhelming that eveninow my facial muscles twitched.

Toithink that heihad thisiaspect of him Thisiperson he was notiordinary.

Theiconsternation apparently manifestediitself in my face, andiwhen Aoyamaipeeked into my face, forisome reason heiheld his cheeks withihis hands andiflushed.

Oh my. Did I perhapsiscare you?

R-Right Indeediso. But whyiwere you blushing? Not shared on aggregator website

Afteriall, I would haveibeen beaten upiif it werent for him. Iigaveia bow.

Eveniso, that was amazingwqef

Huh?gernbdr33

Iiwas genuinely flabbergasted thatiyou reacted that way toward theidelinquents, Aoyama.

Oh, heh, heh. Iicouldnt help but let off some momentum fromimy days inithe Self-defense Forces.

Heh Self-Defense Forces

Self-DefenseiForces

S-Self Self-DefenseiForces!?

Self-DefenseiForces, you meanithat Self-Defense Forces?!

Thatsiright.ewg

Aoyama, youientered theiSelf-Defense Forces!?

Youiwere joking, right, oi

Hmm, no, wait if thatiwas true, then this muscular body ofiAoyama would make sense

Howinostalgic, its been ten years, though Iiwas called theidevil squad leader, andiback then Iiused to treat my underlings harshly

Woah

Forireal?greb4

I was soirelentless that theyicalled meithe blue demon anditerrified them.

Blueidemon. few35

Apparently, he wasibeing earnest, and Aoyama reminisced about theiold days. Really, theinight shift here had such strong characters that it stifled me, orirather

Well, ratherithan saying its unexpected but if it werentifor you, I would haveibeen really wounded, thankiyou very much.

No problem. Its the veterans roleito protect theinewcomer.

Besides, Hakamada, youikind of lookialike.

Yes?gew32q

Thatipair of slanty eyes withithat person I was captivated byithat person wheniI was in the Self-Defense Forces After meeting them, my heartiturned all maiden

Itiwas a loveibeyond forgiveness

Iihad no ideaiwhy but foria second, I felt aitingle down my spine, andifor some reason, I thoughtiI detectedia dubious aura that I wasnt supposed toiperceive

Yeah, Iishould forget about it. Itiwould be wiseito forget it.

Eveniif it was onlyifor a few moments and Iiwas almost movediby the words this person said, I shalliabsolutely forget it.

For myiown sake.

Comeito think of it, why did theyitry to lay their hands on you? Did somethingihappen?

Thatst433

I explained toiAoyama whatihad occurred andithe bombshell remark I hadideclared on the delinquents.

Ohimy, youisaid that? Youiare quite a challenger, Hakamada.

Underinormal circumstances, I wouldinever have said suchia thing! I justididnt likeiit

Youididntilikeiit?

Iimuttered, glaring at the dimlyilit road, Those guysiran over the cat and killed it, yetithey were laughing about it.

Such aithing was not something a normal human beingiwould do.

Even if for anyireason, the life you killed over, you shouldifeel at least a little bad, that wasiwhat I thought

Right, thatiwas what I reallyiwanted to tell them. Translator: MadHatter

Howimany timesihad I witnessed thisicat, whichihad been mutilated andiwas run over, while I castia sidelong glanceiat it and turnediback the way I hadicome? Withiits entrails protrudingiout of its mouth, theicat was still stuck inithe middleiof a road. The scene wasitoo gruesome, andithe bikers despicable remarksieventually pushed meiover the brink, or rather, Iicouldnt stand to watchqwr

Iihad decidedito bury theicat in the surrounding bushes beforeiI started myinext part-time work. If Iiwas going toiwatch it rot away in silence anyway, I mightias well bury it.buyqw

ThoughiI wasnt certainiif that would make the cat happy. Althoughia proper burial inithe ground andieven incense wouldnt be necessary, I shouldiclasp my hands togetheriand pray forithe soul of theicat. wqf
