Reborn in Tokyo after picking up Sayu who ran away from home

Chapter 541 Planning and Organization

Private Toyosaki Academy on Monday, archery department.

In the spacious dojo, a group of teenagers and girls in long gowns and hakama uniforms are doing training.

The sound of bow strings and the movement of shooting targets echoed in the arena.

A little further away, Kato Yusuke watched the scene, and then said to the girl in front of him:
"Compared to before, everyone has become much more professional in terms of strength and momentum. Senior sister is so amazing."

Ryoko Nakano smiled, "After all, the Kyudo competition is coming up soon. If you don't be nervous, you will only be the one who will lose face."

"May I ask when the Kyudo Competition will be held?"

"December 12-24."

"That's it."

"Kato-san, do you still remember our agreement?"

It was about the invitation to the Nakano family to participate in the archery contest when I visited the Nakano family's mansion last time.

Kato Yusuke nodded bluntly and replied, "I remember."

"That's good."

Nakano Ryoko also smiled and nodded slightly, and looked at him and asked, "So, what is Kato-san looking for me today? It shouldn't be something like practice~"

"No."

Kato Yusuke shook his head apologetically, and then said seriously: "Actually, I came today to ask my senior sister for a favor."

"What's the matter?"

Amidst the sound of pulling strings one after another, the boy took a shallow breath.

"Actually, I want to set up a non-governmental non-profit organization in society, but I encounter some problems in the specific process of bidding. I hope to get help from my senior sister."

"...National public welfare organization?" Ryoko Nakano tilted her head slightly and murmured in confusion.

"Sorry, I don't quite understand what Kato-san means. What exactly is the organization you want to establish?"

"To help a class of vulnerable groups in society."

"Vulnerable groups? Like the elderly and children?"

"No."

Kato Yusuke first denied it, then paused and asked: "...Does senior know the word God treats girls?"

"God treats a girl...?"

"Well, those young girls who ran away from home for various reasons and had to wander outside, hoping to exchange food and lodging from strangers."

The boy said in a low voice, keeping the conversation between the two of them.

At this moment, Nakano Ryoko, who was well-informed, couldn't help being a little dazed by his words, and blinked her eyes lightly twice.

a while.

"... If I understand correctly, Kato-san is planning to set up an organization to help such girls?" The girl said suspiciously, her eyes flickering slightly strangely.

After all, this thing is downright weird.

Not to mention that a student is talking about setting up a public welfare organization here, including the objects that the organization intends to help, and they are not vulnerable groups in the general sense.

It's really hard to know how to evaluate it.

But it happens—

"Senior sister is right, I really think so."

A certain person answered with a serious face, not like joking at all.

Ryoko Nakano thought for a while, and then said: "...I don't know much about this group, why do you think they need help?"

"Although not all of them, most of them have been led astray because of poverty and homelessness, and there are not a few such people."

Yusuke Kato took out his mobile phone while talking, and handed it over, "My companion and I have compiled some information, and you can take a look at it, senior sister."

Ryoko Nakano, who took the phone, began to study it.

……

God waiting, literally translated as "waiting for the gods", is a Japanese lingo.

Generally refers to the behavior of teenagers and girls who run away from home looking for someone to live in on the street or on the Internet message boards.

Although gender is not limited, there are more women than men looking for lodging.

In Japan, after nightfall.

You can often see those girls dragging suitcases alone, squatting in the park or beside the street.

Generally, it is especially common around Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.

Such people often post information on the Internet to seek help with food and accommodation.

The so-called "god" in the term "God to treat" refers to the person who provides board and lodging for the girls who run away from home.

However, under the hypocritical mask of providing help, these "gods" often hide some kind of give and take ulterior motives.

In fact, pinning hope on others is a very risky behavior of asking.

But for those desperate girls, there are no other options.

It must be said that God's treatment of girls is not the same as assistance.

The biggest difference inside is uncertainty.

Those teenage girls also naively thought at first that they could get room and board for free without paying anything.

But according to Murphy's Law, things tend to go to the bad side.

In other words, it is very unlikely that they will meet a good person.

Of course, it does not rule out the situation of being misled by men on the Internet and being persecuted as a result.

This is a relatively serious social problem.

In recent decades, the Japanese police have also carried out several rectifications.

Although the effect is there, it has not been eradicated.

This is mainly due to the social structure of Japan.

Whether it is the increasingly serious parent-child relationship problem or the extremely serious problem of school bullying.

Both have greatly squeezed the living space of young people, resulting in an instinctive confrontational attitude in their hearts, but they are unable to fight back in the face of excessive external pressure.

In addition, Japan still has a very serious problem of class solidification, which makes it difficult to shake the class, so it is easy to create the choice of escape.

Although the specific methods are different, the results are all giving up life from a certain angle.

From a deeper level analysis, the reason why the god-treated girl chooses to leave is also because of the suffocation of the interpersonal relationship and society.

According to the public statistics of the Metropolitan Police Department, although there are about 8 missing reports every year, 86% of them are finally found.

Most of them ran away from home, not because of any vicious crimes, and the highest number of missing persons were those in their 20s.

……

"……I see."

After reading the materials, Ryoko Nakano returned the phone.

"I understand the details, but can you tell me why you want to do this?"

Kato Yusuke was silent.

He felt a little hesitant about whether to tell the other party about Xiao Xi.

But in the end, he decided to come clean.

So I told the ins and outs of the matter.

Of course, a lot of his inner sustenance and nostalgia for a certain girl are hidden in it.

And after hearing these things...

bang!

A bamboo knife hit the head not so gently.

Slowly, the girl's slightly stern tone reached his ears.

"It's illegal to take in a girl you don't know without the permission of the guardian...!"

The crisp sound of the bamboo knife attracted the strange eyes of many members, but they were immediately taken aback by Ryoko Nakano's sideways glance, and they dared not look any more.

Facing the girl's questioning, Kato Yusuke did not deny it, and at the same time did not remove the bamboo knife on his forehead, but just looked serious.

"...I have no intention of defending myself, but I am not ready to give up on this matter either. I have already told my guardian that she will come to Tokyo to visit that family soon."

"..."

Ryoko Nakano withdrew the bamboo knife in silence, ""A gentleman cannot stand under a dangerous wall", Kato-san, have you heard this sentence? "

"I've heard it."

"Maybe your intentions are good, but that doesn't hide the fact that you put yourself in a bad situation.

Especially since you are still a public figure, once this matter is exposed, do you know what the consequences will be? "

"know."

Just finished answering...

"Hey--!"

Snapped!It was another chop with a bamboo knife.

This time it was the shoulders, and the force was a little lighter.

"If you commit a crime knowingly, you will be punished severely."

"Sorry..." Kato Yusuke lowered his head apologetically, and sat upright.

Xu was affected by the atmosphere here, and Nuo Da's dojo suddenly became quiet for a while.

Even the movement of shooting arrows with a bow is much lighter unconsciously.

Until the girl's cold voice sounded.

"--for what? Do any of you think you've practiced to be foolproof?"

"""""No, no!"""""

"Then be careful."

"""""yes!!"""""

Finished.

The sound of drawing the bow and shooting the arrow, which had been stagnant for a while, resounded with great momentum.

Ryoko Nakano withdrew her gaze, stared at the young man sitting in front of her, and put the bamboo knife aside.

"All in all, what you are doing now is very easy to be criticized, Kato-san."

"Um……"

"Then, when do you plan to go to that girl's relative's house?"

"tomorrow."

The girl narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "Are you planning to go together too?"

"I think so."

"--madness."

The unceremonious evaluation made Kato Yusuke suddenly speechless.

Out of the corner of the eye, the slender hand protruding from the sleeve of the snow-white gown seemed to want to take the bamboo knife again, but then gave up for no reason.

After a brief silence.

"...If you want to help that girl, there are other ways, right? For example, simply providing financial support."

"That won't solve Xiao Xi's family problems."

"What if I say I can let her enter the welfare facility of the government department and find her a better family?"

Kato Yusuke raised his head unconsciously, "A better family...?"

"Yes."

Nakano Ryoko nodded with her usual expression, her tone was a little elusive, "Or, no matter what, are you going to adopt that girl?"

"..."

Kato Yusuke tightly closed his lips, struggling inwardly.

As far as he is concerned, although his desire to help Xiao Xi is true, it does not mean that he is a saint who can help the world.

As he once said in front of Hui, he just couldn't escape the shadow of the past, trying to repose some of his emotions in this way and obtain spiritual comfort.

It is really good to let Xiaoxi enter the orphanage and find a new family.

He also believes that with Nakano-senpai's ability, it is not difficult to do this kind of thing.

If he hadn't spent the week with Xiao Xi, he might have accepted this arrangement.

But now, he can't seem to do it.

In other words, he couldn't send Xiao Xi, who was so similar to Sayu, to a place beyond his reach.

Looking down at the situation calmly, maybe it was because she saw the part he was trying to hide that the senior in front of her said this.

"..."

Kato Yusuke quietly took a deep breath, looked directly at the other party, "...Sorry, senior sister. I promised that girl that she would become my family."

Nakano Ryoko was not surprised by this at all, but raised her hand slightly, pulled a lock of hair hanging in front of her face behind her ears, and then pondered for a while.

"...In that case, don't go for the door-to-door visit tomorrow. I'll see if I can do something. You go back and wait for my notice."

"What...?" Kato Yusuke was a little confused for a moment.

"Don't understand? Kato-san, it's a bit too conspicuous for you to do this kind of thing as a public figure. Then I will arrange other people to accompany your guardian. You just need to wait quietly."

Without saying anything, Kato Yusuke bent down and bowed sincerely.

"Thank you, Nakano-senpai."

"It's nothing."

Ryoko Nakano shook her head and said in a joking tone: "After all, it's a request from a cute junior. As a senior, I can't stand by and watch~"

Then she asked another question.

"There is also the non-profit organization you mentioned. I can also ask for you, but what are you going to do with the funds? If you don't have influence and credibility, it will be difficult to raise donations from the society."

"Regarding this, I will take out a fixed portion of the income to maintain the operation of this organization."

Kato Yusuke explained: "Maybe there are not many people who can help at first, but we can start with a few people and just take it slowly."

"It seems like it can help one or one?"

"It's kind of like that."

"How are you going to help? It's not about turning everyone into family members, is it?" Nakano Ryoko looked at him with a half-smile.

Kato Yusuke touched his nose with a wry smile.

"Senior sister was joking, this kind of thing is only enough once, I don't have that much spare energy to do that kind of thing.

As for how to help... I haven't figured it out yet, but at least let's start with providing basic board and lodging. "

"So how are you going to choose your partner?"

"It's mainly an online message board. In addition, I am preparing a special website for those who need help to leave a message on it."

Ryoko Nakano couldn't help being silent when she heard this, and then let out a sigh of emotion: "...It seems that you didn't come on a whim."

"...It's just some immature ideas, which made my senior laugh."

"I'm a little surprised, I didn't expect You Jun to be an idealist."

"Uh...you-kun?"

"For a person of my age, you impress me a bit, so let me call you that in the future."

"?"

Looking at the smiling girl, Kato Yusuke didn't know how to respond, so he just nodded ignorantly.

"So, what's the name of the organization?"

"……name?"

"Haven't you thought about it?"

Kato Yusuke thought for a while, then whispered back: "Just call OSY..."

"OSY?"

Ryoko Nakano frowned lightly, and said to herself:
““Outstanding Student of the Year”… doesn’t seem right.Could it be "Out of School Youth", the meaning of out-of-school youth? "

"no."

Kato Yusuke shook his head, "It's just a name I came up with casually, so don't worry about it, senior."

"Is that so..."

Nakano Ryoko glanced at him noncommittally, but didn't care about it, and said instead:
"Anyway, I know everything. Yu-kun, please send me the information of the organization, and I will see what I can do."

"Thank you, senior, thank you very much!" Kato Yusuke bowed again, his words were full of sincerity.

But the girl refused to take credit for it, she just smiled and waved her hand.

"Don't worry about it, Yu-kun, just do your best."
