JOJO: A bizarre adventure that begins with Demon Slayer

Two nights later, Jotaro and Tanjiro finally arrived in Asakusa, Tokyo. This is a booming metropolis that has begun to take the shape of later cities. Even at night, the streets are brightly lit, as bright as day. .

Tanjiro looked at the tall buildings on both sides and the pedestrians walking on the road. He was so shocked that he froze in place. He could not imagine that the city had developed to this point. He murmured to himself: "It's night, actually. It can be so bright. The surrounding houses are so high, are all cities like this?"

The streets were crowded with people, and Tanjiro finally squeezed out of them, but was startled by the urban rail train that suddenly passed by.

"The city is too scary." Tanjiro pulled up his hood and sighed, "It's so dazzling to see that your head almost feels dizzy."

Nezuko didn't adapt to this atmosphere, so she held Tanjiro's hand from behind and fell asleep.

Jotaro's expression remained normal. He had been to countless cities in his life, including places like India. What he was seeing was too childish for him.

"Nezuko, Jo Taro-san, let's go over there." Tanjiro wanted to leave this noisy place. He took Nezuko's hand and rushed towards the dark alley. Unexpectedly, there was something going on inside. There was a couple doing something embarrassing (don't think too much, it was just a kiss). This was the first time Tanjiro saw such a scene. He blushed with embarrassment, quickly bowed and apologized, and pulled Nezuko out.

Jotaro seemed to sense Tanjiro's difficulty, and walked slightly in front of the siblings, blocking the flow of people in front of them.

"Tanjiro, come with me here." Jotaro said calmly, leading the way for the brother and sister and leading them to a quiet place.

It was much better than the noisy streets here. There were only scattered passers-by whispering around. Tanjiro finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "Jo Taro-san, have you been here before?" Jotaro appeared calm and composed. , making the young man very envious.

"No." Jotaro answered simply.

Tanjiro wiped the sweat from his head and said, "Jo Taro-san, you are really amazing."

Jotaro usually has a reserved and deep look, and has keen intuition, keeping calm at all times. It is this that makes Tanjiro admire him from the bottom of his heart. Unconsciously, he has regarded Jotaro as his role model.

After resting for a while, Tanjiro pulled Nezuko and followed Jotaro. They had been on the road since afternoon and were already hungry, and Tanjiro's stomach made an embarrassing sound.

Jotaro glanced at him, pointed to the front, and said, "Tanjiro, let's go to the front to rest for a while."

Tanjiro lowered his head, and his face became a little shy due to embarrassment. He responded in a low voice and followed Jotaro's footsteps. Suddenly, a strong aroma hit his nose. Tanjiro's nose twitched twice, and the fluid in his mouth came out unconsciously. "Jo Taro-san, they seem to be selling food over there, let's go there."

Tanjiro held Nezuko's little hand and ran towards the source of the fragrance excitedly. Jotaro slowly caught up behind them.

This is an extremely dimly lit small street near the main road. It is inaccessible, but the source of the aroma is here. Under the flickering dim lights, a small cart selling ramen is parked, and a bald man is sitting Smoking a pipe leisurely beside him.

As he walked closer, the aroma of ramen became even stronger. Tanjiro suppressed the saliva in his mouth and shouted to the boss: "Get some yam udon!"

Then he looked at Jotaro walking towards him and asked, "Jotaro-san, what do you want to eat?"

Jotaro shook his head and ordered Tanjiro: "Tanjiro, you and Nezuko rest here first. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Before Jotaro came here, he saw the clothing store on the street, but he saw that Tanjiro didn't seem to be very adaptable to the environment here, so he didn't go in. Instead, he chose to take the brother and sister to a quiet place first. Now that everything was arranged, he planned to settle the uniform issue while Tanjiro was resting.

Tanjiro nodded and replied: "Jo Taro-san, I'll wait for you here."

Jotaro turned around and left. He first went to a pawn shop, threw the only valuable TAG Heuer watch on his body, and ordered to the boss: "Quickly give me an estimate!"

Jotaro traveled through time, and the money in his wallet was the currency of the previous world, which was not applicable in this world at all. During this period, all his food and drink expenses were spent on Hesi's money, and now he can't get a cent out of it.

When the boss saw business coming to his door, he hung his unilateral glasses on the bridge of his nose and carefully looked at the shining silver watch in front of him. In the Taisho period, Western goods had already been introduced to Japan, and of course watches were among them. The owner of the pawn shop had seen many types of watches, but this was the first time he had seen such a luxurious and sophisticated watch. Jotaro's TAG Heuer is a very luxurious brand in later generations, and this watch is the best among the same brands. You can imagine its value.

The boss is a typical businessman with a very sharp eye. He can tell the extraordinary quality of this silver watch at a glance. Regardless of the sophistication of this watch, the few pieces of jewelry inlaid in it are rare in the world. He had roughly estimated the value of the watch, and he loved it very much, but with a troubled look on his face, he resisted the greed in his heart and handed the watch back. There is no good businessman without evil. Seeing the value is only the first step. The second step is to lower the price and get the maximum benefit at the minimum price.

The boss smacked his lips and then said: "It turns out to be a watch. This thing is very popular in the city recently. Although it is novel, it is not a rare thing. If you want to pawn it, I can only give you this number. ." The boss held out four fingers. This price was already a huge sum of money in Japan at that time, and the average imported goods were only around this price.

If you are an ordinary person, you may have been fooled by now. It's just that the man in front of him is no ordinary person, but Jotaro. This man is not that easy to deal with.

Jotaro had a straight face and also stretched out four fingers.

The boss thought that Jotaro had agreed, and was extremely happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He said to Jotaro seriously: "Guest, please wait a moment, I will go and get the money." Then he stood up from the chair and made a gesture. Go to the warehouse at the back to get money. The moment he turned around, a sly smile appeared on his face, and he said to himself: "You've made a lot of money. This blind idiot got this watch from nowhere, and I got it for nothing."

Jotaro sat on the chair in front of the counter with his legs crossed, raised his head, and said slowly: "Wait a minute!"

The boss looked puzzled and asked: "Guest, do you have anything else?"

"You seem to have misunderstood." Jotaro pointed at the boss in front of him, "I meant four times the price you quoted!"

The boss seemed to have heard something ridiculous and shouted: "Are you kidding me! Customer! The price I gave is already very fair. You will never get such a price anywhere else!"

"Oh? Really." Jotaro looked indifferent, put the watch in front of him into his pocket, and pretended to leave.

When the boss saw that Jotaro was leaving, he was extremely panicked. He really couldn't put it down for this watch. How could he let it slip away from his eyes in vain? So he immediately shouted: "Guest, wait a minute, wait a minute. If you are not satisfied with the price, let's discuss it carefully. Don't leave in a hurry. My pawn shop is the most fair in Asakusa. If you go to other places, you will only get a worse pawn." few."

Jotaro stood at the door of the pawn shop and did not come in again. He looked like he would leave immediately if the boss's price did not satisfy him, and said, "Four times!"

"Four times? Guest, you are robbing money. How can you do business like this?" The boss shook his head and stretched out two fingers, "Twice! I won't kill you. The most you can get is this watch. price!"

Jotaro didn't say anything and was already walking down the stairs towards the stage.

"Three times! No more, guest!" the boss shouted eagerly from behind.

Jotaro remained unmoved, putting his hands in his pockets and almost walking down the steps.

"Four times! Four times!" The boss gasped and shouted. This sound seemed to take away all his strength. After this sound, his legs were spread apart and he collapsed on the ground, sweating all over his body and breathing heavily. With.

Jotaro finally stopped, walked back to the pawn shop, threw the watch on the boss's soft belly, stared at him from above, and said calmly: "Go and get the money!"
