Chapter 45： Tokyo Drift (15) (1/2)
”What did you do afterwards?” Zhang Heng asked.
”I ... didn't do anything.” Takeda Tetsuya's eyes showed guilt. ”I shouldn't have left Kobayashi there. I want to ... get out of the car to check on his situation, but then I listened When I heard the siren from the opposite side, I was very scared. I didn't dare to stop any more. I turned the car and hurried off the highway. ”
”What happened to the two of them at last?” Ameko couldn't bear it.
”I also saw the later events in the news. The TV station reported that two bad youths were racing backwards at high speeds and hit a large oncoming truck. In the end, they were seriously injured and the injured were still in first aid. He was rescued in the room, but died three days later. ”
”Is it Kobayashi or ...”
”It is Naoto Asano. In addition to his strongest rider, he also has another identity. His uncle is the vice president of Tokyo's largest polar organization Ghost Hitomi.”
”That's the case, so is this why you quit the car world and choose to change your name?”
”Yes, it was an open match. No one knew about it except the three of us. Although there were some other witnesses on the high speed at that time, the visibility was poor and we went in the opposite direction, just based on Those vague testimonies the police couldn't confirm the existence of a third car, because of fear of going to jail and being retaliated by the ghost pupil, I ... chose silence again.
”However, there is no joy in my heart to escape punishment. I will live in guilt of Kobayashi every day after that. If I did n’t act on that day and insist on the game that should not have started, there would be no later The thing was that I was the one who stepped into the gate of the ghost, but it was ironic that the first of the three of us who died was the only Kobayashi who had voted against it ... I secretly went to his house to see it, but Kobayashi ’s My father passed away very early, only my mother and a younger sister, and they soon moved out of Tokyo after this happened. ”
”You met your mother after this. In that case, why not live well?” Ameko said.
”After that, I was very nervous. I couldn't even close my eyes when I slept. I even prepared a testament by the pillow, but over time, neither the police nor the ghost pupils came to me, so for a while, Later, I thought that this matter had passed, and I began to resume daily life. It was during that time that I met the beloved woman. We formed a family like other happy ordinary people, and we have you again a year and a half later. I vowed not to drive anymore and opened an aquatic shop instead.
”After the initial struggle, the business of the aquatic shop is not bad. Everything seems to be on track. Six years have passed since that year. This time is enough to forget many things, so I never expected a nightmare of the day. Will find me again. ”
”What do you mean?” Ameko was puzzled.
”One night, I was processing an order at a fishery store by myself, and suddenly a stone came in from the window and smashed the glass. I thought it was a prank nearby, but I didn't see anyone when I chased out. When I came back, I found that A piece of stone was wrapped in an old newspaper, and the front page of that old newspaper was the high-speed car accident of that year, with a line of blood on the title-do you think you can escape? ”
Takeda also shook off the ashes. ”That thing was unknown to everyone except the three of us that year. Kobayashi ... died on the spot. Naoto Asano spent three days in the intensive care unit of the hospital. He was seriously injured at that time. He said he had been in a coma, but he did not rule out that he would wake up for a while ... Anyway, when the newspaper appeared, my life was over. ”” So you didn't have any gambling addiction at that time. Is it just trying to force your mother to divorce you? ”
”I made a mistake six years ago and pulled Kobayashi into the events at that time, so I will not make such mistakes again.” The owner of the aquatic shop calmly said, ”I am not afraid of death, that is the ending I deserve. The real Tsuchiya Yosuke died on the highway with Kobayashi long ago, and Takeda Tori survived is just his guilt and cowardice. ”
