Chapter 1015 I Can’t Be so Unlucky (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)
Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves and shone on the roof of the car. On the bright and dark park path, Tumen Yasuhui rolled down the window and looked at the children running around the pond not far away, dazed.
"I knew I shouldn't have used him."
The secretary next to him was stunned and turned to look at the boss, his eyes full of doubts. He didn't understand why the boss suddenly said such a sentence.
"I know there are a lot of people who don't want to see me elected to Congress."
Tumen Yasuhui said again, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he meant something.
"I have touched the interests of too many people. These people will definitely attack me, but I have no regrets."
Sakaki remained silent, sucking on his cigarette holder.
The park was left behind, and the Mercedes drove onto the endless highway that seemed to have no end.
"It's not too late to quit now."
Yasuki Domon stared at the rearview mirror and observed Sakaki's expression:
"There are too many people in the world who are bound by interests and cannot help themselves. You are different. You can leave at any time and stay away from the place of right and wrong. Why should you stay?"
"I don't like trouble, and I don't like running away from problems."
The blue-white smoke twisted in the illusion and disappeared in an instant. Sakaki said calmly:
"As long as there are problems to solve, avoiding them will only make more and more problems accumulate, just like a warehouse containing TNT. If you ignore it, no one will be spared when it breaks out. You and I are both chess pieces, thinking that we can jump out of the chessboard can gain peace, but there will still be People pick you up and put you on a new chessboard. The only way to break the game is to wave the flag, lead like-minded companions, fight with the enemy, use all weapons to kill the enemy without sparing any effort, and then return to the chess basket. , enjoy life.”
"If you win this round, can you win the next one?"
"Losing is not scary. What's scary is facing the enemy. You don't even have the courage to draw your sword. You are like a lamb in a pen, letting others slaughter you."
Sakaki laughed:
"There is a word called bad chess basket, which describes a person with poor chess skills. But even a bad chess basket will know right and wrong, and draw a sword against the strong. If you just escape blindly, you will not even have a chance to become a bad chess basket. ”
"That makes sense."
Tumen Yasuhui sighed:
"Can I, this bad chess piece of shit, win this game?"
"There is no meaning in just looking at winning or losing. Some people win, but he loses everything and is alone; some people lose, but he understands what is most important to him."
After flicking the ashes from his cigarette, Sakaki said quietly:
"Life is like death. It puts a sickle on your neck, urging you to write down the things you think are important, and then makes you choose between life and them. Every time you cross out something, you can linger for a while. , until finally, you find that you have nothing to lose, or you find that You will understand that the God of Death is not that scary after all. It is wearing a tattered cloak and holding a rusty, corroded and broken sickle. It looks funny and ridiculous. You pull the button. If you still live after 5 trigger shots, then of course you have to save the last shot for death, right?”
"The last shot is reserved for death."
The secretary seemed dumbfounded and stared blankly at Sakaki. She actually heard deep regret and despair in these words, like a person who had faced death and screamed regretfully to the sky, wanting to redeem himself. It's a pity that it's too late to get back everything I've lost.
Perhaps from then on, he was no longer confused, regardless of life and death, and understood what is more important than life. When he seizes the opportunity again, he will never let it go. Even if the god of death comes again, he will draw his sword and shine. Will take half a step back and won't make any compromises.
The afternoon schedule was not as intensive as the morning. Domon Yasutei cooperated with TV Tokyo and went to Okutama Town in the northwest of Tokyo to visit the elderly who were alone at home. It was considered a kind of marketing, but it was Domon Yasutei's initiative.
When you go to visit someone, you definitely can't just go with your mouth. The supplies Tumen Yasuhui purchased in advance were transported by box truck. According to the time, he has already set off at this time, and he will probably arrive a little earlier than them.
On the Ring Road, TV Tokyo's interview car met them. This time the column will be broadcast during prime time in the evening, which can increase the support rate by at least 3%.
At 2:20 pm, the Mercedes finally arrived at Okutama Town, a suburb of Tokyo.
Here, there are no other cars on the winding road, the chirping of birds can be heard from time to time in the dense forest, and abandoned and dilapidated houses can be seen everywhere on the roadside, forming a sharp contrast with the bustling Tokyo.
“There’s a lot of waste here again.”
Seeing this scene, Tumen Yasuhui sighed:
"Twenty years ago, Okutama Town was prospering in the timber business, with huge profits and a permanent population of 13,000. Later, the government launched a timber import policy, which suddenly caused the price of timber to plummet. In just one year, there were only 6,000 people left in Okutama Town. People, young people have gone to the city.”
Sakaki was a little surprised by the depression in Okutama Town, but not too surprised.
A remote town in a modern country needs policy support and fresh blood to develop. Once all the young people run away, the town will be like an old man, and the outcome will undoubtedly be tragic.
This is a choice of the times and is difficult to change.
In Okutama Town, only the town's government, hospitals and a few tourist attractions have young people working now. The remote villages where Sakaki and the others came to are rarely populated.
Even though Okutama Town offered free houses to attract permanent residents, several young couples moved in. However, they had to face inconvenient transportation, no schools for their children, and occasional wild boars and black bears.
This made them realize that behind the beautiful nature, there are many dangers hidden.
As of today, there are few people living in the villages near Okutama Town. Most of them are elderly people who don't want to leave this land, and their children have all gone to big cities to develop.
The Mercedes-Benz car stopped halfway up the mountain. Domon Yasuki got out of the car, stood on the edge of the road, looked at the gurgling stream below, closed his eyes, and took a few deep breaths of fresh air.
Ding!

Everyone's mobile phone rang at the same time.
Makoto Sakaki took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and his mouth twitched slightly.
The content of the text message was very simple. It came from the town government of Okutama Town, reminding them that there were black bears nearby and they should pay attention to safety.
In the real wilderness, a black bear might suddenly appear in the woods and rush towards them at any time.
Especially at this time of year, winter is coming, and bears need to store enough fat to hibernate.
Compared to the fish in the river, there is no doubt that Makoto Sakaki and his friends can provide more fat to the black bears.
"I can't be so unlucky."
Makoto Sakaki muttered:
"It seems Conan is on his way"
