Chapter 785 Blonde Girl "Alice D'Orléans"【4500】

Golden hair, sky-blue eyes, three-dimensional and deep facial features that are very different from those of Orientals... There is no doubt that this is a foreigner from the West.

More than a dozen drunkards with red faces and swaying feet surrounded him from all directions.

The former did not hide his hostility and stared at the latter viciously.

This foreigner is very tall, about 1.9 meters tall, with broad shoulders and a thick chest, which can be said to be the best interpretation of the term "a tall man and a big horse".

Standing in the middle of this group of drunkards, it gives people an inexplicable and funny feeling of "a giant has come to Lilliput".

Precisely because his figure was so oppressive, the drunkards around him all looked ferocious and ferocious, but they couldn't help but swallow their saliva wildly, with fear flashing in their eyes.

It is worth mentioning that this stranger’s outfit is very interesting.

In the West today, the so-called "gentleman culture" is becoming popular.

Whenever they go out, in order to show their social status, men always wear black formal suits, or even gorgeous tuxedos, wearing tall top hats, and holding a stick in their hands.

crutches used.

On the other hand, this stranger was not wearing such classic clothes, but was dressed in a Japanese style.

Yellow kimono, gray hakama, black cloth socks, high-toothed clogs...all available.

The kimono skirt on the upper body is tucked into a standard right fold.

The hakama of the lower body is also folded into five folds representing "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith".

Judging from his attire alone, he looks even more Japanese than Japanese.

Although Qingto didn't know the origin of this stranger, he guessed that he was probably a businessman who had lived in Osaka for a long time.

Osaka Bay is one of Japan's busiest ports.

And Osaka is a "commercial capital" famous for doing business.

In this way, it naturally attracted countless overseas businessmen.

Every day, countless merchant ships from the West compete for passage on the waters of Osaka Bay.

Therefore, apart from Nagasaki, which has always been a gateway for foreign exchanges, and Edo, where embassies are concentrated, Osaka Town has the largest number of Westerners.

All in all, it is not unusual to meet Westerners on the streets of Osaka.

In terms of atmosphere, Osaka, which has a strong commercial atmosphere, is undoubtedly much more open than Edo and Kyoto.

Most businessmen are like this - as long as there is money to be made, it doesn't matter who the other party is or where they come from.

But even so, under the influence of the torrent of the times, it is destined to be unable to prevent the idea of ​​"Westerners are evil barbarians" and "Westerners have destroyed the peace of this country" from taking root and spreading in Osaka Town.

A large number of Osaka residents are very disgusted with Westerners and respond with great malice towards them.

Of course, these Osaka residents who are hostile to Westerners are not entirely motivated by ideological opposition.

The sudden arrival of Westerners did have a very negative impact on the townspeople of the "Shang Capital"...especially on the small and medium-sized businessmen.

Western countries have basically entered the industrial age.

"Goods from big factories" not only have huge output, but are also of high quality and low price. Naturally, they have a crushing victory over "goods from handmade workshops".

Faced with this unprecedented new challenge, the giant businessmen with big businesses are doing well.

But for small households, or even small and medium-sized businessmen who only rely on one shop to make a living, life will be miserable.

Business has become difficult to do, incomes have plummeted, businessmen have gone bankrupt, and the economy has declined... indirectly affecting the lives of ordinary people.

As a result, the townspeople naturally poured out their resentment on the Westerners - in fact, it was indeed the latter's fault.

"Everyone! Please calm down!"

Suddenly, the stranger spoke up, speaking loudly in Japanese.

As soon as he spoke, everyone present, including Qingdeng, was startled.

There is no other reason - this person’s Japanese is very standard! There is almost no accent!

If you only heard his voice but didn't see his appearance, you might have thought he was some kind of eloquent storyteller.

Although he is a Westerner, he can speak extremely fluent and standard Japanese... It reminded Qingden of Elodie inexplicably.

"I just passed by this place by chance, and I have no ill intentions!"

As he spoke, he raised his arms in a "surrender" posture, with a smile on his lips, looking harmless to humans and animals.

"I don't want to go against you! Please let me go!"

As he spoke, he turned his body so that everyone present could see his kind expression.

Due to the angle, Qingdeng had not been able to see this person's face just now.

But now, because the other party's face turned towards him, Qingdeng could finally see his face clearly.

Overall, he is a very handsome man.

He is about 40 years old, very handsome, with a short beard on his chin, and his already three-dimensional facial features are as sharp as a knife.

Especially his straight and high nose and sapphire-like eyes are quite delicate.

Logically speaking, most men of this age will be out of shape and develop an ugly belly.

However, this man has a good figure.

Even though he was wearing tight clothes, Qingdeng could clearly feel the strong flesh under the cloth.

At first glance, he looks like a person who never neglects to exercise.

Because he always interacts with the Angoulême family, Qingden has a certain understanding of the facial features of Westerners...especially the French.

He was not like other people who couldn't distinguish the appearance of Westerners and felt that Westerners all over the world looked the same.

Therefore, he dared to conclude that this foreigner was probably French - his face was a textbook "Gaul face".

Although the stranger had shown 100% kindness, the drunkards around him did not buy it.

"Ah? Do you think we will let you go if you say a few nice words?"

"Damn Yidi! Who allowed you to walk around on our land?"

"That's right!"

"Go away! Go back to your country! You are not welcome here!"

…

Not only did the drunkards not give way, but they further narrowed the encirclement.

Their breath, mixed with the strong smell of alcohol, almost sprayed onto the stranger's face.

"That's enough, Jetaro, don't do this!"

"Don't make trouble! Let's go have a drink quickly!"

"If we attract official officials, we will have to spend the night in the prison tonight!"

Many people were dragging these drunkards away, trying to calm the trouble - they should be these drunkards' partners.

Although these sober people who still retain their sense are trying their best to persuade and try to avoid the deterioration of the situation.

But... as we all know, drunk people have no IQ.

Under the influence of alcohol, they can do any stupid thing.

"Hiccup...! Don't worry about me! Don't you see that I am doing harm to the people?!"

"It's because everyone is too weak and dare not seek justice, which makes these barbarians so arrogant!"

"If everyone could stand up and fight for justice regardless of their own safety! Then we would have been able to expel the Yi Di! The world would have regained peace!"

The "impassioned speeches" of these people further aroused the emotions at the scene.

The situation is gradually getting out of control.

Drunkards are menacing and arrogant.

Each expression is scarier than the last.

Each word is more radical than the last.

Although most of these drunkards who are surrounding and criticizing the strangers are civilians, there are many samurai with swords on their waists.

The overwhelming "siege net"; the accusations and abuses that do not hide their hatred; the surging hostility coming from all directions... If it were an ordinary person, facing this situation, he would probably have to tremble with his legs.

If it doesn't work, your face will turn pale.

This is especially true for Westerners living in Japan nowadays.

After all, the bloody "raw wheat incident" in which an Englishman was hacked to death is still before our eyes.

But the strange thing is that this stranger is not panicked or afraid.

He still raised his arms with a smile on his face, pretending to be innocent, and kept repeating "I mean no harm" and "Please let me leave."

"Hiccup...! Damn it! Why are you talking so much nonsense to him!"
