single row ahead

Holding the cold and thin hand of the white-haired boy tightly, and bringing the white-haired boy who had been silent and unresisting back to the house where he placed his five children, Oda Sakunosuke was relieved.

Recalling the previous times when I saw this snow-like boy when passing by that street, he always looked numb and closed, and Oda Sakunosuke was a little worried whether it was because of some unfortunate things he encountered in this war , There is a psychological problem.

Although the five children he brought back, Yusuke, Katsumi, Sakule, Shinji, and Yuu, were more or less silent and depressed when they were just adopted by him, even the youngest, who didn't remember much Saki Le is not as lively as normal children and loves to laugh, but after a period of familiarization, they struggled through the transition that gradually faded away the shadow of the war and the pain of the death of their family members that had left a deep imprint on their hearts. After a period of time, you can see that the smiles on their faces gradually increased.

Thinking of the scene when he first saw Sakura smiling, the expression on Oda Sakunosuke's face softened involuntarily.

He looked at the white-haired boy who hadn't spoken since he brought him back, and felt a little embarrassed.

Even though he has already adopted five children, the problem of this boy seems to be greater than the sum of the previous five.

"Hey, can you tell me your name?"

Oda Sakunosuke pondered for a while, then asked cautiously.

In short, first find a way to get him to speak.If he doesn't communicate, he doesn't know how to get into his heart and untie his knot.

"..."

However, just like the scene he had seen before, the white-haired and red-eyed boy fell silent again, showing no reaction to what he said.

Difficult.

Two characters appeared in Oda Sakunosuke's head.

Now he doesn't know why this young man responds to his words alone. Obviously, when he passed by there a few days ago, many people of all kinds came up to talk to him, but he has never seen anyone make him fluctuate. .

He tried to recall what he had just said.

[If you have nowhere to go, why don't you try to live with me. ]

Just ordinary words, nothing special.

Before, he thought it was because he looked more friendly, so the white-haired boy who ignored everyone would talk to him alone, but now it seems that it is not because of his appearance.

Oda Sakunosuke thought a little puzzled, a little confused about what the white-haired boy was thinking.

Or think about it elsewhere.Oda Sakunosuke murmured in his heart.

So the clue he just touched was cut off by himself abruptly.

He tried his best to say a few words to the boy he brought back, "Are you hungry? Thirsty? Cold?"

Oda Sakunosuke, who thinks straight, asks three soul questions like an old mother.

"..."

There was another wordless silence.

The white-haired boy's eyes were dull, and he was indifferent to everything that happened outside.

"You can't do this, Oda Saku." The boss who had been staying behind the cooking counter looked at Oda Sakunosuke's deflated look, and said with a smile.

"You even call me that, boss." Oda Sakunosuke turned around helplessly, complained casually, and focused on what the boss said, "Then what can the boss do?"

The very chic boss in a vest and shorts raised the spatula in his hand, with a proud smile on his face, "Is there any need to say that? Of course he conquered him with delicious food."

"Oh!" Oda Sakunosuke's eyes lit up, "Is it the boss's special spicy curry?"

"That's right!" The boss turned around and opened the refrigerator, looked at the ingredients, and estimated the quantity. "There are fresh ingredients, and the amount should be enough for eight people."

"If you do it at this time, you can catch up with dinner." The boss nodded affirmatively, and gave Oda Sakunosuke a thumbs up.

"Then give it a try." Oda Sakunosuke gave the boss a thumbs up with a smile, expressing his approval of the boss's idea, "But Xingsuke and theirs don't need to make spicy ones, although they were very happy last time I finished eating, but my stomach felt a little uncomfortable the next day."

"Okay." The boss bent down to pick the ingredients, without looking up, and returned a gesture of no problem.

Oda Sakunosuke turned his head, and looked at the silent white-haired boy who continued to worry.

"Because you may not be willing to talk now..." Oda Sakunosuke tried to slow down his tone, and said, "So I need to give you a temporary name, can I?"

I don’t know where I heard it. If you want to talk to children with autism, you must slow down your speech and enunciate clearly, otherwise they will not be able to receive information at all, let alone respond.

Oda Sakunosuke felt that the boy he brought back had a little autism symptoms, so he carefully changed his speaking habits.

Not surprisingly, there was still no response. Oda Sakunosuke was not discouraged, and continued, "Yuki, do you like it? This name."

If you want to name the boy in front of you, this is the first name that comes to mind.

As cold and inaccessible as a snowflake, but also as beautiful and vulnerable as a snowflake.

If it was possible, he hoped that this young man whom he named Xue would be like Xue, even at the very beginning, shutting everyone out with an inaccessible temperature, surrounded by the warmth that never gave up, It can also be melted gently little by little.

"Xue—because you don't speak, I presume that you agree—this is where you will live in the future. Besides you, your five younger brothers and sisters also live here, but they are not related to you. They don't live in the same room, the youngest and only girl in the family is Sakuro, the oldest boy is Kosuke, the one who likes baseball is Katsumi, and then there is Yu who likes to play games, and Shinji who is a bit shy and likes to read..."

Even though the boy named Snow didn't make any response, Oda Sakunosuke didn't mind telling him about the situation of this unrelated but very warm family like a few treasures.

Oda Sakunosuke is not usually a talkative person, but today, in order to let the white-haired boy accept himself faster, and to let him eliminate the anxiety and embarrassment of coming to a new family, he talked a lot.

Maybe he didn't even realize that when he talked about the five children he adopted, his expression was so gentle, even the brows were smiling, and his eyes seemed to be shining.

He didn't even realize that, at some point, the white-haired boy's hollow and unfocused glazed red eyes became brighter, and he shifted his gaze from mid-air to him, looking at him intently.

"...Because Kosuke's room is full, I have prepared another room for you, but the furniture inside has not been arranged yet, and now there is only one bed..."

Speaking of this, Oda Sakunosuke showed a bit of embarrassment on his face.

To be precise, it is not that there is no time, but that there is no money.

Oda Sakunosuke moved his fingers in his pocket, squeezed his shriveled wallet, and weighed how much money was left in it, whether it was enough to buy a desk for the new kid.

But unfortunately, only the jingling of a few coins told him cruelly that it wasn't enough.

You may even have to eat nothing before you get paid.

Ah, the bar is also temporarily closed.

In fact, although Oda Sakunosuke was in short supply, he was not so distressed that he might not even be able to afford food as he is now.

He also knew that with his own financial strength, it would be difficult enough to raise five children. When he first saw the white-haired boy on the street, he didn't intend to adopt him.

But until the next few days, because I was worried and because it was not particularly troublesome, I would take a detour every day to see if the child was taken away or left by himself.

At the beginning, I didn't pay much attention to it, but it wasn't until the third day that Oda Sakunosuke knew that the child had been refusing to accept other people's kindness these days, neither eating nor drinking. Shui didn't rest with his eyes closed, but just sat on that chair all the time, motionless.

If this continues, you will die.

Knowing this, I also felt that I had no choice but to do nothing, so I watched a young man die in a place so close to me, bit by bit because of the despair in my heart.

Just going to try it out.

Thinking like this, Oda Sakunosuke is asking the boss to give him the utility room as a bedroom, and gather all the sundries and place them in other places, and put a bed bought from the second-hand market in it, and just laid it. After drying the quilt.

Uneasy, he stretched out his hand to the boy.

In fact, I didn’t hold out any hope. I tidied up the room just because I felt that if I didn’t even have a place for him in this family, I went to invite that boy rashly. In any case, I couldn’t say that I sincerely wanted to be his family. .

Oda Sakunosuke himself didn't expect that he actually managed to bring him back in the end.

Thinking of this, the young man with burgundy hair couldn't help but look at the boy brought back by him.

Then he was taken aback because of the glassy red pupils facing him.

"Why...don't continue?" He asked blankly, "Xingsuke, Katsumi, Shinji, Yu, Sakura, and Yuki."

He looked at Sakunosuke Oda seriously, "Why... didn't you say it?"

"I like... the way you look when you mention them."

Oda Sakunosuke was a little dumbfounded, and a little sad, he said softly, "Yuki—this is the name I gave you."

"My... name?" The white-haired boy pointed to himself, "Xue...?"

"Yes." Oda Sakunosuke looked directly at his red eyes as pure as a newborn baby, and said, "You are Snow."
