[Hokage] How could a cub recognize its father randomly?

"Why did they do this?" An An cried sadly. She was sad that most of the children's hard work was wasted. She was sad that she could not turn this into a clean and beautiful place, and even more so for this land. And sad.

"How could this be possible?" An An was small, but her tears hadn't stopped since then.

She cried and ran over, trying to clean up the area that the children who were a little older than her had just cleaned up.

The airship that had taken out the garbage did not stop, but had already left.

"They must be very sad." An An cried.

The system remained silent.

Chrollo looked at the sky and did not look at her. He just said: "Sad? No, what the children here used to look forward to most was this moment."

"Why?" An An was extremely angry. She had never hated a thing so much, but that big monster called the airship was so annoying.

"Because there are things they need to survive here." Chrollo said calmly.

"Survival?" An An was confused, she couldn't understand, turning this place into a smelly, bad monster, but letting the people here survive?

Why is that?

"Come here." Chrollo waved to her.

An An hesitated for a moment, looked at the huge mountain of garbage, which was much bigger than before, and then walked over.

"Wait." Chrollo held her down and asked her to watch.

An An didn't understand, but she didn't struggle.

After a while, the children ran back.

They stood at the place where they had originally cleaned up the garbage, and then started to do it again without hesitation.

An An initially thought that they had started sorting garbage again, and felt sad and sad. She especially wanted to give them the portion of food they received today to stop them from continuing.

However, she soon discovered something was wrong.

"They are..." An An suddenly opened her eyes wide.

"After they made the choice, they knew there was no way to complete the job today, so they gave up the remaining food, but they still needed to eat, so they chose their old job and rummaged through the new pile of garbage for food. ." Chrollo explained plainly.

"Expired food, leftovers from others, unwanted clothes... these are why these children can survive in Meteor Street." Chrollo looked at An An and said coldly: "The change you want , will never appear."

Everyone who lives and grows up in Meteor Street has both a mean life and a hard life.

Their predatory instinct has been deeply ingrained in their bones since they were young.

The reason why they chose to do as An An asked instead of robbing An An directly was not because they were still young or because they had three views.

It's purely because An An lives in the base of the powerful Phantom Troupe and is sheltered by the troupe.

That's why An An has the qualifications to ask them to abide by the rules and trade equally.

They completed the tasks issued by An An and exchanged for the food they needed.

The reason for choosing to get food this way has little to do with the taste of the food, it's just that it's faster, more convenient and less likely to die.

However, when this way is lost, it doesn't matter, but picking up garbage again is just more dangerous because the competition for food has become greater.

"You don't understand the most fundamental nature of this at all, so everything you do is only temporary." Chrollo finally concluded, thinking of the interest groups behind his conscience, a coldness flashed in his eyes.

But he didn't say anything more to the brat, because she obviously couldn't understand, and now her eyes were filled with tears.

An An returned to the base in tears. The others looked at each other, and then their eyes stopped on Chrollo, who walked in slowly. His eyes were full of meaning and could no longer condemn him.

Although Meteor Street says there are no children, putting the children in the novice area of ​​District 13 is obviously a bit protective. Although it is for more human resources in the future, it also means that children of An An's age , is still regarded as a child in Meteor Street.

And their leader, the master of telekinesis at the top of Meteor Street, actually bullied a child.

This is really a bit different.

Chrollo glanced over with a faint smile, and a group of people immediately looked away.

If you want to bully, just bully. In Meteor Street, it doesn't matter if you don't die.

After a while, the knight came over with itching heart and asked: "An An is full of energy and vitality every day. Captain, what did you do with her to make her cry like this." He was particularly curious. He had been so energetic before. He deliberately bullied her a little, and she thought he was playing with her. He was cheerful and as rough as Wo Jin. Why did he collapse in such a short time?

The knight thought, if the leader is not the leader, would the children in the atmosphere be more powerful than him? ? ?

Chrollo was in a good mood and said casually: "Take her to see the special scenery of Meteor Street."

The knight was stunned for a moment, then remembered, "That one?"

He said enthusiastically: "Then what does she think? According to my understanding, shouldn't she be so high-spirited and say that she will clean up the garbage? Why is this?"

Chrollo said lightly: "That is to let her know the certain truth about Meteor Street."

The knight twitched his mouth and immediately sympathized with An An.

At this young age, the first great ambition in life has been shattered. It's tragic, it's really tragic.

Maggie rolled her eyes silently on the sidelines. These two men were simply bad enough. The leader didn't say anything. The knight only expressed sympathy with his lips, but watched the show in his heart and made sarcastic remarks.

"Then does she still do those things outside?" The knight pondered: "It would be good if someone prepares fresh fruits and vegetables to eat."

"I don't know." Chrollo said simply. He had already picked up the book he had not finished reading yesterday and sat on the sofa again to read.

"If she doesn't want her anymore, should I find something to do every day." The knight fell into deep thought.

next day

An An ran up to Chrollo. Her eyes were red and she looked like she had been crying all night, but her eyes seemed to be firmer.

"An'an is a bad boy. An'an talks big words." An'an learned from the pain and reflected.

Chrollo raised his eyebrows, closed the book, and looked at her with interest, wondering what she had been thinking about all night.

An An mustered up the courage to look into Chrollo's eyes. In fact, she didn't look directly into Chrollo's eyes. Although she thought Chrollo was very nice, she was a little strangely scared for no reason.

But at this moment, she looked over firmly.

"It's wrong for An An to do things without investigation." An An concluded by himself, and then looked at Chrollo with a keen eye,

“Even if the amount of garbage increases every day, if we don’t clean it up, it will keep getting more and more.”

An An made a big circle gesture, and then continued: "If you don't do anything, it will never change, but if you do it, you can at least reduce the garbage and let the children and adults live a better life."

"Mama said that nothing is meaningless. Only by doing it can you know whether it is worth it. Not doing it is the biggest unworthiness."

Although he has a small body, he seems to have unlimited enthusiasm and courage.

The system suddenly thought of Senju Hashirama, the man who was determined to change the world with Madara Uchiha, and finally really changed the world.

He taught An An very well!

Chrollo covered his mouth and looked at her quietly, making An An feel a little flustered.

An An is a little timid. Is she wrong again?

Chrollo suddenly smiled slightly, and An An was almost stunned.

This was the first time she felt that Brother Chrollo was actually smiling. Although he had laughed before, the feeling was different.

An An couldn't tell the difference, but she knew it was different.

"Very good." He said softly.

An An's eyes lit up. Did Brother Chrollo agree with her words?

Then Chrollo looked expressionlessly for a moment and signaled.

An An is puzzled.

Chrollo said coldly: "You haven't done anything for today, haven't you?"

He was referring to her cleaning up trash in exchange for food.

An An immediately blushed, feeling a little ashamed that she had forgotten it!

She ran out quickly.

"Captain, were you really persuaded by her?" Feitan was suspicious.

"No." Chrollo, who was very knowledgeable, shook his head flatly. It's not like he had never seen Chicken Soup for the Soul. He knew more than An An, so how could he be so moved.

I just feel that the kid who is shaken all of a sudden is obviously not as interesting as the more tenacious and determined kid.

He was very curious, thinking about what more interesting things could be brought about by the little ghost for a night.

Thinking of this, Chrollo raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Knight."

"Captain, what's the matter?"

"Don't let the hands of people from the Presbytery reach here." Chrollo wrote lightly, instantly dismissing the danger that might arise next for An An.
