48 Hours a Day

Breakfast waiters put egg roast, rice, roasted fish and soup on the table.

But none of the three of them moved the chopsticks, and Takeda Chu sighed with Ameko's firm eyes across the street.

The owner of the aquaculture store lit up a cigarette, “Why not? You're going to China in more than two months. Why are you mixing this up? ”

“I want to know the truth about that thing back then, somewhere in your heart, still in love with Mom, right? ”

“Emotions at our age aren't really that important anymore.” Takeda couldn't help but smoke a cigarette. “When I was younger, I thought I'd always loved a woman, but the truth is, after all these years, I almost forgot what she looked like. ”

The owner of the aquaculture store took a break, “But anyway, I owe you, so how's Nanaka? How's she doing? ”

“Mom, she's fine now, she's just a little nostalgic about what happened back then, but she told me herself that she doesn't hate you anymore, and you just... owe us a truth. ”

Takeda Chu also heard that he had fallen into silence, and it was clear that he did not want to recall what happened back then, but now he knows that he can no longer hide it.

It didn't take long until the cigarette was about to burn to his finger before the fisherman said again, "It's all because of a mistake that I've made in my life. ”

Next, the owner of the aquaculture store finally tells the story he's been hiding for years.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Japan's economy entered the final madness. Yusuke Tsuchiya was born in that era and had a happy family. Like most ordinary people at that time, Yosuke Tsuchiya was also young and arrogant. Until the signing of the Square Agreement, the dollar began to depreciate wildly against the Japanese yen, and the purchasing power of the Japanese yen reached its peak, which could be accompanied by a devastating blow to the export industry. Japan moved from a flourishing and receding to a lost decade. The huge contrast put this generation on a different path.

The high debt pressure overwhelmed Yusuke Tsuchiya's parents. After his only residence was recovered by the bank, he desperately chose to burn coal and commit suicide, and his grandparents died of successive illnesses. However, the enormous changes in life did not sink Yusuke Tsuchiya, but cast his fearless character, in the words of his fleet manager later discovered.

- The child is a natural fighter.

In his life dictionary, he seemed completely unafraid of both words.

And whoever fails to kill me will surely strengthen me.

Yasuke Tsuchiya reached the peak of his life when he was in his twenties. He earned excellent results on the European track, won the FIAGT Grand Prix New York Station runner-up, and then turned back with the motorcade. Shortly after, he won the D1GRANDPRIX Tokyo Station chasing championship. He was a legendary figure in the Japanese drift world.

At that time, he had risen to the top of the mountain, but still could not be satisfied, eager for new challenges, and decided to start challenging the title of DK. It had taken less than a year to bring down the top underground racers from 22 districts, leaving only the final stables.

“Naoto Asano, the strongest driver in the practice area, was a crazy guy, he created his own death racing method, picked a highway at an agreed time, broke a guardrail, set up an entrance and exit, racing cars drove backwards on the highway, who arrived at the finish line alive first was the last winner, and sometimes he deliberately introduced the police into the game in order to increase the excitement. ”

“This… this is suicide.” Ameko was completely foolish when he heard the rules.

“Naoto Asano was convinced that only the bravest driver was worthy of victory, and that all those who wanted to challenge him would accept the rules of the game he had set, and although it seemed silly now, there was only one last game left to win the DK title, when I was young and I could never give up. ”

Takeda Chu also lit up the second cigarette with a lighter and took a deep breath to continue the road, “We agreed to try. Besides the two of us, there was my best friend, Shinjuku's strongest driver, Kobayashi. The track was chosen by us together. It was 40 kilometers long, three lanes, and the vehicle density was moderate in normal times, but no one thought it would start to fog suddenly when we got there that day.

“Kobayashi suggested giving up the game and changing the time. I can see that Naoto Asano actually agreed in his heart. After all, he was just a bastard who enjoyed walking around on the edge of death and wasn't really going to die. At that time, the road conditions, the dangers were beyond his reach, but the bastard obviously didn't want to let go of this opportunity to ridicule us. He knew I would vote for him, so he voted against himself, saying that we were all cowards.

“At that time, I was young, and I voted against it in anger. Eventually, 2: 1, the game proceeded as usual. At this time, Naoto Asano's face finally changed, and I couldn't feel any revenge pleasure, because all three of us had ridden tigers. ”

“What happened after that proved how stupid my decision was, the visibility on the highway was only four or five meters that day, and we had to keep the speed down, but even so still in the shadow of death, it was no longer a technical comparison, and luck became the most important thing. ”

“We were so worried about hanging for 10 minutes, usually this time was enough for us to run completely, but this time we only ran less than a third, I kept honking the horn, good thing at this time the highway was closed, there were a lot fewer cars coming across the street, but even so many times I suddenly saw the lights, the direction of the beating was dangerous to avoid, the feeling was like rubbing shoulders with Death. ”

Recall the danger, even now the owner of the aquaculture store still has palpitations.

“In this case, the nerves couldn't hold on for long, so Kobayashi and I took the lead in winning each other a break. As for Naoto Asano, he had already left early in the game. This so-called bravest driver in Tokyo, his will had been destroyed and he dared to shrink behind us, but then no one thought of the accident.

“Almost halfway through, I heard the whistle of the big truck in front of me, preparing to change course, I didn't expect Naoto Asano's GT-R to suddenly lift me up, stuck me dead in the left driveway, I tried to speed up and slow down, but he was still stuck on my right side, I can probably guess what he was thinking at that time, his watch today was too bad, if he lost this race spread out, his reputation built up over so long would be over, so it was disgusting...

“Naoto Asano's heart tried to put me to death, leaving me less and less time. I couldn't help but create a sense of despair in my heart, thinking that I was about to be told here today, but at this time, Kobayashi ran into Naoto Asano's GT-R with his own LEXUS.

“The next moment, their cars went out of control, Naoto Asano's GT-R rolled under the chassis of the big van opposite, then the big van dumped it, smashed it on Kobayashi's LEXUS, the scene was too bloody, I didn't even dare to look, his entire roof fell into it, and the car burst into smoke. ”
