Mecha Start, Nuclear Bomb Tokyo

......

"So that's how it is... Are you still in the world of "Black Bullet"?"

Sitting in a ramen shop, An Yi looked at Sayuri Kurokawa who was holding the ramen bowl and eating quickly.

After a while of intelligence exchanges and inquiries.

An Yi can basically confirm that the world he is in now is the world of "The Black Bullet".

Discrimination against the Children of the Damned is on the rise.

Even on the streets, spray paint and slogans such as 'kill those little bugs' and 'drive the cursed son out of Tokyo' can be seen everywhere.

The tide is rising.

Things are getting tougher for the Children of the Damned.

Thinking of this, An Yi turned her head and glanced at Sayuri Kurokawa who seemed like she hadn't eaten anything serious for a long time.

At this time, the little girl's mouth was full of oil stains, but she still seemed to have more to say.

"One more bowl."

Feeling that Sayuri Kurokawa didn't seem to be full, An Yi looked at the ramen shop owner who was busy behind the counter, and asked calmly.

But the other party seemed very impatient at this time.

He gave a 'tsk' with some dissatisfaction, put down the fence, and said with a little contempt in his tone, "I said guest, the one next to you should be the son of the curse from the outer peripheral area, right?"

Sayuri Kurokawa put down her chopsticks in embarrassment from the hostile eyes of the ramen shop owner.

As a child of the curse, eating in a restaurant in Tokyo will encounter this kind of treatment.

"So what?"

An Yi asked calmly.

"With all due respect, guest, it doesn't make any sense to feed these bastards who destroy human beings. This group of bastards with bug blood entrenched in the outer peripheral area..."

The ramen shop owner's tone was sharp and contemptuous.

"..."

An Yi raised her eyebrows after hearing this.

It has nothing to do with the plot or the original.

As an ordinary person with normal three views and a conscience, I would feel pity when I see these little girls, right?

An Yi thinks that he is not a good person.

But at least in terms of the three views, he feels that there is no big problem with himself.

He was just about to say something more.

Then--

"Um...?"

An Yi turned her head, and then saw Sayuri Kurokawa stretching out her hand and tightly tugging at the hem of her white coat.

She tried to dissuade her in a soft voice with a somewhat slurring childish tone: "An...Brother An Yi..."

Sayuri Kurokawa didn't want to cause trouble for An Yi because of herself.

Because An Yi is different from people in other Tokyo areas.

He is a good man...

But even Sayuri Kurokawa's pure goodwill obviously didn't reach the owner of the ramen shop.

He just frowned in disgust: "What...? I can't even speak clearly, it's really disgusting! It's a disgusting monster!"

Sayuri Kurokawa did not speak.

He just lowered his head and silently endured the other party's discrimination and contempt.

This is normal.

The sons of the curse who live in the peripheral area will only suffer endless contempt when they come to New Tokyo City.

But...

That's enough.

Sayuri Kurokawa was very grateful to An Yi for taking her to eat.

She didn't want to get An Yi into trouble...

So that's enough.

She tugged on An Yi's hem, raised her head, looking immature but wounded all over.

No matter who it is, seeing her like this, maybe they will soften their hearts and agree to her, ready to settle down, right?

but--

"Apologize."

It was still a steady voice without the slightest fluctuation.

An Yi didn't even look at Sayuri Kurokawa, but turned to look at the owner of the ramen shop.

"Huh...? Why do I have to..."

The ramen shop owner wants to refute.

Yes.

Why is he apologizing to a Perimeter bastard?

This is simply unreasonable!

He is a human being, why do humans bow their heads to monsters?

The ramen shop owner's expression instantly became grim and dissatisfied, as if he wanted to scare An Yi by this.

But the next second...

His ferocious expression froze.

I don't know when.

The air is already condensed with an indescribable sense of oppression.

The noisy city of Tokyo seems to be silent at this moment.

The young man in front of him didn't bluff like him, and didn't even say a word.

He simply raised his eyes.

He stared at him unwaveringly.

Just keep it simple.

The owner of the ramen shop felt as if his neck had been pinched.

Those icy eyes...

There is an indescribable sense of oppression.

It made him inexplicably feel cold in his hands and feet, and it seemed that his back was wet.

Even Sayuri Kurokawa who was beside An Yi swallowed slightly.

As a child of the curse, she has a keen perception of others.

The terribly wild protovirus in the body seemed to shrink back in front of An Yi.

"Apologize."

An Yi spoke again, and this time he added the second half of the sentence in an overly calm tone: "I won't say it a third time."

"..." Ramen shop owner.

Under this invisible and heavy pressure, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, sweated profusely, gritted his teeth, and lowered his head to Kurokawa Sayuri who was beside An Yi: "I'm sorry!"

"Eh...? That... I didn't..."

Faced with other people's apologies, Sayuri Kurokawa was a little at a loss, and subconsciously wanted to apologize.

But when she wanted to stand up and apologize, An Yi stopped her with her hand.

At the same time, An Yi raised his eyes coldly: "You, continue making noodles."

"...Yes..."

The owner of the ramen shop swallowed, subconsciously using honorifics.

This time, there was no yin and yang, and there was no deliberate ridicule.

He was sweating profusely and continued pouring ramen into the pot.

He even took the initiative to ask Sayuri Kurokawa if she wanted the soak to be softer or harder, and her words were more respectful, and she didn't dare to neglect her in the slightest.

This scene surprised Sayuri Kurokawa.

She never thought about it.

As the son of the curse, he was able to receive such courtesy in Tokyo.

Just when she was a little dumbfounded and didn't know how to face all this.

An Yi beside her spoke in a calm tone: "People can be kind, but being too kind is weak, and kindness is nothing more than shrinking your head and letting others bully you."

An Yi looked sideways at Sayuri Kurokawa, and said calmly, "You don't have to bully others, but you must never let others bully you."

Yes.

This is what An Yi wanted to say.

If Asasi, who is ignorant, is kind, he will only be trampled and insulted maliciously by others.

An Yi's words made Sayuri Kurokawa open her mouth, as if opening the door to a new world.

Then she nodded vigorously: "...I...I see."

Then, Sayuri Kurokawa looked at the owner of the ramen shop, and boldly gave an order: "Boss, the noodles must be harder for me."
