The three disturbing brothers, who had kept quiet all the way because of the threat, returned home. They casually dragged their shoes at the entrance and put on slippers. Hayato walked towards the kitchen.
Because I was in a hurry last night, I just cooked some instant noodles to make ends meet. Today I went home much earlier than usual, so I could have a serious dinner.
Ever since he traveled back in time, Hayato has never had a serious meal. It's not that he has ever been hungry. It's just that he has always regarded the toast and omelettes for breakfast, the fried noodles and bread sold at school as snacks.
The key point is to have food.
But before Hayato had even taken a few steps away from the door that had just been closed, the sound of the doorbell ringing came from behind him.
Could someone be looking for his mother? Hayato turned around with some uncertainty, and did not immediately open the door. Instead, he moved his eyes closer to the peephole, wanting to see who was coming from outside the door.
What do people look like?
With his forehead pressed against the door, Hayato looked outside, but what he saw was an empty front yard, which made him slightly unhappy - was there a naughty child playing a prank?
But behind him there was the sound of the glass door leading to the yard being pushed open.
"Hey, kid, just stand there and don't move."
Turning his head, Hayato saw a strange man walking into the house from the courtyard. The mud on his ill-fitting shoes made the floor of the house a mess. But the man didn't realize it and was still on the tatami in the living room.
Rubbed my feet.
Although the man always looked lazy and powerless when making movements, Hayato did not move at all. Instead, he stood obediently and just watched the other person close the curtains.
The reason is simple - in the man's hand, a pistol was pointed in Hayato's direction.
"You must be the escaped convict in the newspaper before, right? Alas, I am really unlucky." Sighing, Hayato raised his hands to show that he did not pose any threat, and at the same time, his eyes searched around.
Being pointed at a gun is no fun at all. He has to find a way to save himself without alerting the escaped prisoner.
Hearing Hayato's sigh, Lucky showed a smile on his face: "Hahahaha, a brat like you must be addicted to games every day at this age, right? Hehehe, you are really not doing your job, you don't have that time to play games
, it is better to study the constellations."
Ah, what? Hayato looked like a black question mark on the spot. Was he being accused by an escaped prisoner of not doing his job properly? Besides, is studying horoscopes a real job? Playing cards by yourself, maybe you can save the world in the future.
"Can I ask why you came to my house, Mr. Prison Breaker?" After searching around, Hayato found something that might be useful. In order to increase his chances of success, he decided to talk to the man in front of him.
The escaped prisoner started "talking therapy" to delay time.
"Boy, I don't like that title of yours. It's so unlucky. My name is Lucky, 'lucky'!" The escaped prisoner looked around the house and swept away all the decorations on the kotatsu table with a flick of his arm.
When he got to the ground, he sat down casually, with the gun in his hand still pointed at Hayato, "If you want to blame it, it's your bad luck. I'm going to rob you now. Now, give me the money hidden in your house.
Take out all the money!"
"Don't try to play any tricks. Once I see you trying to get out of my sight, I'll shoot; if there's something in your hand that doesn't look like money, I'll shoot; and if you dare to get close to the phone or anything like that, I'll shoot.
I can also shoot."
With a dark smile, the escaped prisoner Lucky gestured to the side with the gun in his hand: "Go, take out your family's money. Oh, by the way, I still need food and drink, I'm going to starve to death."
."
"Okay, Mr. Lucky." Hayato immediately walked towards the kitchen obediently, and Lucky also stood up from the living room. The gun in his hand kept moving with Hayato's movement, and he always kept his distance.
Lucky was quite wary. He and Hayato were always within seven steps of each other. Even if Ip Man came, he probably wouldn't be able to take his pistol. However, Hayato did not take action.
That’s the idea.
Soon, a bowl of instant noodles was put on the table in the living room. Hayato added hot water to it and explained to the alert Lucky: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Lucky, my parents have been together for a long time recently.
We are not at home, so there is no food at home, only this. I don’t think you will accept my call to order takeout, right?"
"I said, if you dare to come close to the phone, I will shoot you. But you kid is really unlucky. Your parents are not at home, and I came to your door again." A ferocious smile appeared on Lucky's face, "Forget it.
, instant noodles are fine too, I haven’t eaten them for a long time. So, where is your family’s money?”
"Actually, I don't have any savings at home. After all, the adults are not at home. You can understand, right, Mr. Larch? However, my mother left me a bank card before she left." He took a few steps back.
, watching Rachi pull out his chair and sit at the table, Hayato still didn't take any action, just explained unhurriedly,
"You won't agree if I go to the bank to withdraw money now, right? So I can only trouble you to withdraw it yourself."
"It's really troublesome." Lucky scratched his head unhappily, "What about the card? Take it out, and there's also the bank card password."
This time, Hayato did not obey the instructions obediently. Instead, under Lucky's wary gaze, he pulled out the chair opposite Lucky and sat down. He took out his bank card and placed it on the edge of the instant noodle bowl. Then he calmly said:
"It will be a while before I can eat instant noodles, and this card contains more than a month's living expenses. I am really unwilling to lose it like this."
Even though he said this, Lucky didn't see any "reluctance" in Hayato's body at all.
"So, Mr. Lucky, while you are waiting for the instant noodles, would you like to play a game with me?" Hayato took out the card deck and put it on the table, "Duel Monster Card, if you beat me, then I will immediately
I will tell you the password of the bank card, and even if you lose, I will tell you before you leave."
"After all, Mr. Lucky, you have a gun."
Looking at Hayato's calm smile, Lucky found it quite interesting. He dug into his prison uniform and actually took out a deck of cards: "Hahaha, kid, then you have found the right person. There are discussions in the whole prison."
No one can beat me in a duel with monsters!"
***The author has something to say***
The protagonist and the murderer start a duel, and you can directly spoil the final result: the protagonist wins
So do you want to guess how the protagonist survives from a murderer who has a gun in his hand and gets angry after losing? I mentioned foreshadowing earlier
