Maybe a Fake Gintama

Chapter 20: The Thing More Hateful Than Not Being Able to Keep the Promise Is Forgetting the Promise! (Otsuu’s Father Part 2)

"Manager, this is..." Shinpachi wanted to explain, but Kawaki stopped him.

"Let the adults deal with the adult's matter. Children should just do what they want to do," Kawaki said.

"But..." Shinpachi wanted to say something. But looking at Kawaki, who was smiling, he could only swallow what he wanted to say.

"What the hell is going on?" Gintoki leaned against the door and asked Kawaki, who had already taken off Terakado Tsuu's guard uniform.

"It's just a stupid father remembering the agreement with his daughter many years ago," Kawaki replied casually.

"I see. It was you who became Otsuu's agent." The scar-faced uncle, no, Otsuu-chan's father, lowered his head and sat on a bench in the large lounge outside the concert venue. "The mother and daughter have worked so hard to get to where they are now. It's really amazing."

After saying that, Otsuu-chan's father could not help but laugh at himself.

"There is nothing to be happy about being praised by you. Now that things have come to this, how can you still show your face calmly." Speaking of this, Terakado Ichi (who is Otsuu-chan's agent and mother) paused, took a cigarette, and looked at Otsuu-chan's father with his head lowered, "Speaking of which, you should still be in prison, right? Why are you here?"

However, Otsuu-chan's father lowered his head and did not say a word.

"I'm really speechless. It's been thirteen years. It looks like you haven't improved at all." Terakado Ichi extinguished and threw the cigarette butt on the trash can on the side as she spoke. "You can live as you wish, but have you thought about it? How do others view our mother and daughter hiding in the dark and crying?"

"Just because of a father like you, how much pain has Otsuu suffered! Have you thought about it?" Terakado Ichi continued to ask. At this moment, Terikado Ichi couldn't help but recall. At the press conference, the reporter asked Otsuu, [What attitude will your father express about the concert? ] and Otsuu-chan's confused and incomprehensible expression.

"It is your fault that Otsuu suffers so much. Please disappear and never appear in front of us again!" With that, Otsuu-chan's mother turned and left, "Please don't let that child remember unhappy things again. My father is a murderer or something..."

At this time, Otsuu-chan's father finally raised his head and looked at Otsuu-chan's mother, who had already walked to the door. He opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything even if the door closed

However, a hand suddenly held out a piece of gum in front of Otsuu-chan's father at this time.

"Do you want some? Chewing gum?" At some point in time, Gintoki had already sat on the right side of Otsuu-chan's father.

"Why would I eat something that children love to eat" Otsuu-chan's father replied without hesitation.

"One of the secrets to living a happy life is not to forget the heart of a child. Isn't it something that only a foolish kid would do to see his daughter get on stage by break out of prison?" Gintoki said as he looked at Otsuu-chan's father.

"It's not like that! If you have to say it... because that was something we agreed on before." As he spoke, Otsuu-chan's father couldn't help but recall the promise he made with Otsuu-chan, who was still a child thirteen years ago. At that time, he had once said [If you can hold a concert, I will hold a million roses and go to the front to cheer for you!], but now...!"

"Do you remember? After all, it has already been thirteen years. Even if you remember, you probably don't want to think about it anymore." Otsuu-chan's father couldn't help but laugh bitterly, "Because of me, I don't know how much she has suffered. She definitely doesn't even want to see me..."

"I went back. After all, I forgot to buy roses." As he spoke, Otsuu-chan's father was about to get up.

"Then, do you want to order this? It's not something children like to eat." At this time, a hand holding a bottle of high-quality Chinese white wine suddenly stretched out in front of Otsuu-chan's father.

"Hey! Are you kidding? How can you drink such a high alcohol content" Otsuu-chan's father couldn't help but complain.

"Is it high? Is it higher than the wall of the prison?" As he spoke. Kawaki stretched out his hand, bit open the lid, and poured a few big mouthfuls of white wine.

"The agreement that you want to complete, not hesitating to cross the wall of the high prison to complete the agreement. Regardless of whether that daughter remembers it or not, can't you just remember it? Moreover, I believe that the daughter definitely remembers it, and she won't care whether there are a million roses or not. What is sadder than not completing the agreement is forgetting the agreement. Remember it well, uncle."

"You..." Otsuu-chan's father wanted to say something, but at this time, Kagura ran over while shouting.

"Gin-chan~"

"What's wrong?" Gintoki looked at the panting Kagura and asked.

"There's trouble at the venue-aru. Some guest went kablooey and freaked..." Before Kagura could finish, he was stopped by Gintoki.

"Speak normally. I can't understand a word you're saying!" Gintoki pinched Kagura's face and said.

"In the concert hall. You see, there was an Amanto. And make things worse, he was one of those [Love Cannibal Tribe] Amanto that captures and feeds on the people he likes when he gets excited." Just as Kagura finished speaking, she saw Otsuu-chan's father get up at an extraordinary speed and rush into the venue.

"Where did that uncle go? Does he want to protect Otsuu-chan, aru? He's just an ordinary person!" Kagura said.

"Parents are such creatures." Kawaki sighed softly.

"Kawaki, I remember that you said you were an orphan? Where did your parents come from?" Gintoki couldn't help but ask.

"Isn't this how you act on TV?" Kawaki looked at Gintoki as if he was looking at an idiot.

However, he suddenly heard the audience's screams in the venue at this time. Then, the door was pushed open, and a large audience ran out in panic.

"Let's go. That uncle is no match for that creature." As he spoke, Kawaki nimbly avoided the crowd as he entered the venue.

When Kawaki entered the venue, he saw a huge humanoid creature wearing Terakado Tsuu's personal guard attire standing on the stage. It had a huge mouth on its stomach, and dozens of long red tentacles stretched out from inside.

At this time, the uncle was wearing a plastic bag had been knocked to the ground. Otsuu-chan and her mother were beside him. It seemed that he had just blocked a blow for Otsuu-chan.

"You're awake!" Otsuu-chan said in surprise.

Otsuu-chan's father realized his situation and immediately got up.

"Uh... who are you?" Otsuu-chan couldn't help but ask.

"Just a fan of yours." As Otsuu's father spoke, he once again stood in front of Otsuu-chan and her mother.

At this time, the Amanto once again launched an attack at the few guards who wanted to stop him, and the huge hand was about to hit Shinpachi.

Shinpachi shut his eyes in fear, but the attack he expected did not fall. Shinpachi opened his eyes and saw Kawaki standing in front of him.

"Boy, the first lesson I'll teach you is never to close your eyes when facing an enemy. It's good to resist or to run away. But never close your eyes!" Kawaki threw the umbrella in his hand at the Amanto with all his might as he spoke. The force was so great that the Amanto was forced back dozens of meters and nailed to the wall.

Then the Amanto fainted.

"Too... too strong, Kawaki-san!" Shinpachi cried out in disbelief.

"I actually hate tentacles the most. I don't even have the desire to look at it. The kind that doesn't even want to click on the cover!" Kawaki said disdainfully.

"Hey, are you listening to people or not? No one asked about your hobby, right?" Shinpachi complained.

"Hey, hey, the venue has been ruined by you. You still like to mess around as usual." Gintoki's voice came, and at the same time, Kawaki's umbrella was thrown over.

Kawaki reached out and caught his umbrella. At the same time, he jumped off the stage and walked to the door without looking back, "The three of you, hurry up. If you're late, I won't invite you for ramen."

"Uncle," Gintoki said as he threw a flower he picked from the outside to Otsuu-chan's father, who was currently using a plastic bag to cover his head, "It's not quite a million, so you'll really need to talk'em up." With that, Gintoki, Kagura, and Shinpachi also walked towards the door at the same time.

Otsuu-chan's father, who had received the flowers, couldn't help but snort. He turned around and handed the wildflowers in his hand to Otsuu-chan.

Otsuu-chan took the flower with some doubts. But in the next moment, the memories that were sealed in the depths of her heart began to wake up. However, at this time, Otsuu-chan's father was about to reach the door.

"Um... next time, bring the rose, okay!" Otsuu-chan shouted, "Until then, I'll be waiting on the stage... Otousan!"

The uncle stopped at the door, but he still opened the door and walked out.

However, his tears were already flowing down

"Yo. Tearful parting go okay, pops?" Gintoki leaned against the door and asked.

"This ain't a farewell. I will definitely... definitely come to see her again." Otsuu-chan's father had already taken off the plastic bag that was covering his face and said with tears streaming down his face.

The police officer who had been waiting at the door all this time walked up to Otsuu-chan's father and handcuffed him again. Then, they took the police car with him. Before he left, several police officers even greeted Kawaki, who was at the side.

"You know, Gintoki? Actually, it wasn't like we weren't able to protect anything in the end at this time." Kawaki said and threw an envelope to Gintoki.

Gintoki caught it and opened it. There were dozens of photos inside.

"This is..."

"Their photos, such as wedding photos, parent-child photos, baby's one-month-old birthday, and child school photos, they send me a lot of photos every year. It's annoying." Kawaki couldn't help but smile.

It turned out that the photo Kawaki gave was the photo of the comrades who were driven away by Kawaki before the last battle. Because of Kawaki, they lived and began a new life.

Looking at the various new lives that his old friends showed in the photos, Gintoki couldn't help but smile. But in the end, Gintoki threw the photo back to Kawaki.

"This ramen becomes a mess..."
