I'm really unnerved in Tokyo

Chapter 26 Forbidden Boundaries
"This is... me???? When did I know foreigners? And when was this tied up and wearing a convenience store hat? Why do I have no memory at all."

Looking at the photo in front of him, Araki Sousuke's head was in a mess.

Could it be that the boxing machine I broke was actually the Gate of Steins, which caused the world line to change, and then traveled through it again?
"That... I used to wander around this forbidden border before I was under the pressure of mortgage and marriage, but this behavior is indeed not tolerated by the world, and it will leave a bad impression on the guests. I can't keep you anymore..."

Manager Misaka chose his words carefully.

"No... store manager, listen to me, this is not me! This guy's skin is white and delicate, completely different from my muscles and tattoos!"

Feeling that the momentum was not good, Araki Sousuke immediately took off his shirt, revealing the carved muscles and tattoos all over his body.

"What are you going to do, even if you are like this, I am already..."

"Look, store manager, I don't have a hairy mole next to this guy's part..."

Then, regardless of the obstruction of the store manager Misaka, he leaned over and turned his back to the other party, and began to try to take off his pants and open them... to prove his "innocence".

"The store manager... I found out... I'm bothering you."

At this moment, Koida Moto pushed the door and entered, happened to see this scene, and hurriedly prepared to leave.

"Excuse me, come in and stop him immediately!"

Store manager Misaka hurriedly yelled at him.

"I found that the photo on this poster seems to have been processed with photo synthesis software such as PS, but the head was changed through AI modeling. You can see that there is still a trace of unnaturalness at the junction of the neck here."

After appeasing the panicked and demented Araki Sousuke, the sharp-eyed Oida Moto pointed to something in the lower right corner of the poster and explained to them.

"Let me just say, I never did that kind of thing... I mistakenly thought it was some time I got drunk and lost my memory..."

Hearing Oida Moto's words, Araki Sousuke heaved a sigh of relief.

"But... the recent photo synthesis technology, is it already so powerful?"

At this time, the store manager Misaka went out to answer the phone, and then came in with a gloomy expression.

"These photos were reported to the message board of the official website of 71 Convenience Store...the name of our store was also pointed out, which had a very bad impact on the brand image...just received an order from the company, before the matter is investigated clearly , you need to suspend Araki-kun first."

"Damn it, who did it? I know I must kill him."

Hearing the word "suspended", Sousuke Araki immediately felt his veins swell.

"Araki-kun, look at the report post on the message board, and there is also a contact number here."

Koida Moto quickly handed him the phone.

Araki Sousuke immediately dialed the number.

"Mosimoxi..."

On the other side of the phone, a man's leisurely voice came.

"Who are you bastard, you dare to frame me with such a photo, I will definitely not let you go, I will hunt you down to the ends of the earth..."

Araki Sousuke was obviously so angry that he lost his mind.

"Oh, it's the convenience store clerk Sang, how about it, did you appreciate those photos? You had a great time beating us up the day before yesterday, and I've kept the talisman paper you sold me..."

Following these frivolous words, the image of the red-haired high school student from the night before immediately appeared in Araki Sousuke's mind.

"So it's you...what do you want?"

Holding the phone tightly in his hand, Araki Sousuke took a deep breath and calmed down.

"How? Let me think about it, I will give you a day to raise money. Before tomorrow night, 150 million yen... If I don't see the money, I will send more photos in my hand to the 21CH message board to make you famous ...Call me when you get the money."

After finishing speaking, the man on the other end of the phone hung up the call.

Araki Sousuke frowned tightly, and with a "click", he crushed the phone in his hand.

Koida Moto: "My phone..."

……

the next day.late at night.

The Senju Bridge, built in the Edo period, quietly spans the Sumida River, connecting Senju District to the north and Arakawa District to the south.

On this steel-reinforced bridge with a long history that has been rebuilt several times, three delinquent teenagers in high school uniforms are leaning on the railing, smoking a cigarette, and looking boredly at the river flowing on the Sumida River.

"Natsume-kun, that guy won't be too scared to come, let us go, right?"

A man asked with some concern.

"No, that guy was so scared that he couldn't even speak clearly on the phone, and this amount is only his salary for a few months. That guy can still get it together, it's better than losing his job .”

Natsume Kikuto, the red-haired young man who was "forcibly sold talisman paper" by Araki Sosuke, said with great confidence.

"Natsume-kun is still very powerful. As long as you get the right handle, you can easily blackmail him for 150 million."

"Hmph, it only costs a few thousand yen to find someone to retouch pictures on the Internet, and you can earn 150 million. It's really cool. What should we buy if we share it?"

"I've already thought about it, I'm going to modify the exhaust of my little motorcycle..."

Just as the three of them were chattering away, leaning on the railing, puffing out clouds and thinking about the "beautiful future", there was a burst of "booming, booming" motorcycle exhaust sounds on the bridge.

This kind of exhaust sound, when you hear it, the exhaust pipe has been deliberately modified, the sound waves are bursting and harsh.

It was the same model that the three teenagers wanted to modify.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of "rumbling" motorcycles became more and more deafening, and the lights of the cars kept shining on them.

"In the middle of the night, is it bothering you to be 'booming, booming'? Is it great to have money to change the exhaust? If you don't want to die..."

The imagination of the three was interrupted, the red-haired youth took out a huge metal bat from behind, and the other two companions also showed their switchblades, turned around and shouted.

But as soon as they turned around, their expressions froze on their faces.

Standing in front of them was the convenience store clerk who came as promised.

However, this guy's attire seems to be a little different from before.

Sousuke Araki, who arrived at an unknown time, wore only a pair of black leather pants on his lower body, exposing his strong, tattooed upper body.

On his head, he wore a hood with six huge demon horns.

On his forehead, a golden incantation was drawn.

Behind him, there are four tentacles that are as sharp as blades, dragging a long pointed tail.

In his hand, he held a wooden sword for training.

And behind him, there are several men with reluctant faces, wearing black slender tentacles headgear, several spider legs on their backs, and men in different costumes.
