Dream, Cherry and Emerald Traveler

In fact, Kakyoin understands that human beings cannot stand alone animals.

People need friends.

——What is a real friend like?

Kakyoin has imagined it countless times.From a very young age until he grew up in high school, he obviously had no friends, but he never stopped thinking about this issue, and never gave up looking forward to it.

He thought that a friend should be someone who can travel together.Looking at the endless wilderness and the vast sky outside the window on the train, listening to the other party telling boring jokes, and then laughing to express that it is really boring.

Friends should also be people who share joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys, and who can entrust their lives in times of crisis.They have a unique tacit understanding and the same beliefs with each other.

Friends don't ask about their backgrounds or ages, they only look at whether their minds and interests are similar.

It is difficult to maintain a good distance between people. If you are too close, you will hurt people, and if you are too far away, you will hurt people.

Friends will not overly interfere in decisions and private affairs, and will not say a lot of superficial social rhetoric, but they will face difficulties for the other party, and they will be obliged to run thousands of miles.

Before the age of 17, Kakyoin will consciously ignore these expectations of friends.

Because by those standards, he has no friends.

Yuki Kazama was different to him.It's hard to sum it up in one word.Whether it's childhood, classmates, or relatives, it doesn't seem to be accurate.From the time he met her when he was seven years old, his position towards her was very vague.

She always came to talk to him on her own, and the kindness and tenderness were too pure for people to refuse.So she stayed by his side all the time, walked through spring, summer, autumn and winter with him, and grew up together.

Habits are a terrible thing.He is used to loneliness, and he is also used to luck in Kazama.

I am used to her chatting about interesting gossips in school by her side, and she is used to coming to him with her schoolbag to do homework together.

Kazama Yuki is a very good girl.She will always show him a warm smile, care about his body when the seasons change, and carefully choose the gift for him every year.

But she is a girl who needs protection and care, and she can't really see his "Green Emperor", and she can't meet his expectations of friends.

The indifferent and lonely Kakyoin didn't really rekindle the long-extinguished flame in his heart until he met Jotaro and the others.

——If you and I see the same world, then we should be friends, right?

That night, Kakyoin was lying on the tatami of Kujo's house, looking at the ceiling, constantly recalling various scenes during the day.

In the fierce battle in the infirmary, and in order to help him pull out the "granulation" planted in Dio's head, Jotaro was injured, blood dripped down his fingers, and the calm and peaceful face that could not see any pain and discomfort A willing face.It seemed that hanging by a thread to save him a few seconds ago was nothing at all.

Kujo Jotaro, like himself, has the existence called a double.

His Platinum Star, his own Green Emperor, is the same existence—this cognition produced a wonderful feeling in his chest, as if the blood vessels in his heart were faintly burning.

Kakyoin thought for a long time.

He thought of the frightening nightmarish memory in Egypt, his loneliness in the past 17 years, and his young self's good expectations for the word "friend".

Everything is silent outside the window, only the humming of cicadas.

He could have just left and returned to his calm and peaceful daily life, but the next day, he crossed the threshold, walked in, and asked Jotaro's mother, Holly, about the illness.

When Kakyoin proposed to join their trip to Egypt to assassinate Dio, Kakyoin didn't think about anything, and seemed to have considered everything.

It was as if there was a calm madness burning quietly in the chest, in the soul.

He thought, he seemed to be a rebellious child since he was a child.Whether it is refusing to make friends, or choosing to run away from home today to cut off one's back and cowardly heart, it seems so capricious and irrational.

But he did just that.

When asked why, he just replied casually: "Because you woke me up, that's all."

But no one knows that this is his first bold step for friendship.

He joins this adventure-filled journey from Japan to Egypt.Kujo Jotaro, Joseph, Abdel, and later Polnarev, and Izzy.Five people and one dog.They fought side by side and saw countless scenery along the way.Kakyoin felt that the scenery was far more beautiful than the photos he had seen in magazines before.

I don't know when it started, but the friendship has been rooted in his heart.In his eyes, this short fifty-day experience is so wonderful, so magnificent, far better than the previous 17 years.

*******************

Although they had made sufficient psychological preparations before departure, the bumps and bumps of the journey were beyond their imagination.

From the moment they encountered the "Grey Tower" crash on the plane, they have been continuously assassinated and blocked.Dio's subordinates and hired killers created endless troubles for them.

Kakyoin still remembered that the battle with the "Grey Tower" was his first battle after getting rid of the control of "Grain".

Fear?

No, in the face of a dangerous situation, he unexpectedly possessed the calmness, insight and concentration that surprised him.Even after the injury, the pain from the wound can bring him a surge of adrenaline.Every second of walking on the edge of danger makes one's scalp tingle and goose bumps all over his body.

Breathing quickened, heart beating fast, pupils dilated.It's not an exaggeration to say that the feeling of exhilaration after the battle dilutes his physical fatigue and makes him feel alive for the first time.

Perhaps as Mr. Joseph Joestar said, a double is like a talent, it is the embodiment of spiritual power.A person born with a double is a born warrior, with a fighting spirit in his bones.

For the first time in her young life, Kakyoin felt bright hope.

In addition, after getting acquainted with each other, several friends gradually began to understand each other, and the new cognition was different from the impression when they first met.

Take Jotaro Kujo, for example, everyone calls him JOJO. At first, Kakyoin thought he was very calm and reliable, but he was too cold and dull, and he was too aggressive towards girls.But after staying in the same room for one night, after chatting, Kakyoin felt that he was actually a very interesting person.

He looks like a delinquent boy, he can do all kinds of "tricks" that make teachers and top students faint, but in some respects he is very reasonable and follows principles.Although it is very difficult to get along with on the surface, Kakyoin can feel the gentleness and kindness in Jotaro's heart.

——Otherwise, he wouldn't have reached out without hesitation and pulled out the "granulation" to save his life.

Probably because they were similar in age, and also had an inexplicable obsession with the student's identity and uniform, the two quickly became good friends.

Because of his tall stature, handsome appearance and stern demeanor, Kujo Jotaro became the idol pursued by school girls.However, he has only one comment on the girls who are chasing him: "I hate women chattering in front of me the most, it's really annoying!"

The swordsman Polnarev who joined the team in Hong Kong held out a finger and shook it in front of Jotaro, with a face full of disapproval: "No, no, you can't find a girlfriend like this. Be polite to girls, be gentle and warm, be like me..."

He is a standard Frenchman, with a romantic, passionate and outspoken nature, and he is the least serious of the five.Since he joined, the atmosphere of the whole team has changed a lot.

The next 10 minutes are devoted to Polnareff's enthusiastic personal "love history" confession.Kakyoin listened patiently to the end, and concluded in a tactful tone: "So, that is to say, you are still at the step of striking up a conversation."

"Hey, sooner or later I will meet a romantic relationship! Do you have a girlfriend, Kakyoin?"

The complaint was suddenly rebuffed, and Huajingyuan didn't panic. After thinking about it, he confessed: "No, but I have a young girl who is very cute."

Having said that, the girl's voice and smile suddenly flashed in front of my eyes, as if I could hear her calling his name in my ears.

Polnareff: "Then, so what! You Shuran is almost like a younger sister, but not a girlfriend..."

Jotaro: "...that's enough."

Kakyoin was distracted for a moment.Somehow, even though she was far away from Japan, and she was not around, I suddenly had a little understanding of her position that had been vague all along.

Perhaps... It was because of leaving her side that he could finally see his own mind clearly.

Because it is easy to be accidentally injured, the topic about girls ends here, and is skipped by the three singles.

The young boys gathered together to chat, drink, and brag nonsense for most of the night.

During the period, Jotaro performed a stunt of swallowing five cigarettes for them, which won acclaim and won the best of the audience.

"This is too cool! How did you do that!?"

While Polnareff was applauding enthusiastically, Joseph from the next door ran over and knocked on the door, seriously protesting that they disturbed the people, but was mercilessly complained by his grandson, who turned out to be an old man.

Mr. Joseph, who believed that his prestige has not diminished all his life, was choked up: "..."

So he decisively went back and woke up Abdel, and the five of them got up to drink together, and they were high until three o'clock, and they were collectively depressed in the car the next day.The driver Polnareff sighed depressedly, full of injustice, and protested loudly: "Don't sleep, get up and chat with me! Otherwise, what if I fall asleep?"

Fortunately, I didn't meet the stand-in messenger sent by Dior that day.

But within a few days, they encountered an enemy on the road who was trying to knock their car off a cliff.As the driver, Polnareff performed the first jump on the spot.

Of course, there were more than these jokes along the way.From Singapore to India to Pakistan, there are countries and cultures that I have never been in contact with before. There are also situations where local indigenous people misunderstood because of language barriers and were chased and beaten.

When they experienced the second crash, they slept in the wild desert, encountered the plot of "Reaper", and experienced some twists and turns, but he still successfully dealt with the enemy in the dream.

Even though it was a forgotten victory, even though he was the only one who remembered it, it didn't matter.This is his victory, and it is also a victory for their team.

The sky is slowly getting brighter.

The fog turned golden little by little, as if the light of the whole world leaked from the end of the sky, pierced through the clouds and the breeze, whistling and covering the wilderness, illuminating the sleeping faces of the companions.

Kakyoin looked at the sky and was a little dazed.

At such an extremely peaceful moment, before he was about to embark on a more difficult path, he suddenly sighed in his heart.

——The self who lives like this is like the real self.

Taking advantage of the golden sunlight of the early morning sunrise, facing the lake, Kakyoin carefully combed the messy hair.Looking at the reflection in the water, it seems that he is only a little thinner than when he left Japan, and he is also a little tanned, but his brows and eyes are as clear as clouds and fog, and he is full of energy when he smiles.

The fly in the ointment is that the journey is inconvenient. The uniforms are stained with blood and dust, so they have to wait until the next city to clean them carefully.

Of course, he would not blame his friends for being misunderstood. Friends are precious existences, and a little trouble will not make him angry.He wanted to keep the whole team in harmony more strongly than anyone else.

But—as for the little baby who almost caused him to be isolated from his peers and almost killed his friends, no such luck.

It's not enough to kill the killer, but he can't let it go easily. He has already thought of a tailor-made revenge method. :)

************

Kakyoin often thinks about the enemy and analyzes it in advance for future battles.

The more enemies you meet, the more confusing it will be.

Why are so many people willing to work for Dior?

Why does Granny Enya admire Dior so much?Even in the end, he found that he was never trusted, just a chess piece that was thrown away, and he still defended Dior until the last moment.

He thought back to that day six months ago——

Nothing can be seen, heard, or felt.It was as if the five senses had been sealed away, leaving only the mind still awake, helplessly experiencing the frightening darkness and silence.

However, at the next moment, a faint light illuminated his body, and a passage was laid out in front of him, leading to the unknown front.

His soul drifted forward along the passage until he saw a ghostly figure.

He took a deep breath, and following Dio's words, those horrible memories flooded in, making him unbearable for a while.

He remembered the feeling of standing on the dark stone steps. As Dio approached, the sound of footsteps was accompanied by the slight clanging of metal, like cold blades rising and falling from his face, and the blood seemed to be There was a fire burning together, which made him so scared that he wanted to cry, but he couldn't make a sound at all.

The terrible vampire saw through his loneliness at a glance, and said to him: Don't be afraid, just be friends with me.

It is true that this invitation to be a friend is just a bad lie, but it is undeniable that he was really shaken under that terrible mental oppression.

Six months ago, he succumbed to Dio out of fear, and was manipulated to act against justice like a marionette. This was an unforgivable shame for him.

In the dozens of days and nights that followed, although he kept admonishing himself, this deep-rooted fear still made him tremble.

Maybe it was because he had personally experienced the feeling of being face to face with Dior, and he gradually understood a truth.

Fear leads to surrender.

But that's only one aspect of it.

When the evil side of a person is infinitely magnified, it will make others have a vague resonance.

Because people cannot always be upright, everyone has ugly thoughts deep in their hearts, but they are usually bound by morality and laws, as well as the surrounding code of conduct, and usually do not indulge themselves to release the dark side, the ugly side of the heart will also be suppressed.

As for Dior, he is extremely greedy, cruel and arrogant, but he is also forging ahead on the evil path, a rare and extremely evil existence.

Looking at him, it seems that he can release the dark desires suppressed in our hearts as much as we can.

Because a villain like Dior can do things that others cannot, that's why so many people worship him crazily.

Release the ugliness and dark side in everyone's heart, and show the ugliness of human nature instead of high-sounding benevolence and morality, which will resonate more deeply in people's hearts.
