Kneeling and begging to live past the age of 18

Miki Nozomi is very familiar with Aunt Avelina's house. On the day she asked Giorno to look after the house, she did not hesitate to bring some things that might be used, and went straight to the house with a small bag on her back. leave.

She went straight to the door, but what Miki saw was only her uncle who was always expressionless.

"Since you're here, you must have discovered it."

The uncle spoke indifferently.

"In the future, letters don't need to be sent here."

"Aunt, she..."

"Eye disease, I have been away for a long time, if you want the address of the cemetery, I can tell you."

There is a meaning inside and outside the words.

—Don't bother me any more.

Although the other party was originally a little indifferent, Miki Nozomi frowned at his current appearance.

"Then ask Naranja..."

"I do not know."

As if wanting to end the topic quickly, the man's speech speed was obviously accelerated.

"He's always hanging out, he doesn't even come home, he doesn't even go to school, I don't care about him anymore."

As he said that, he obviously didn't want to say any more, so he directly told the address of Sanmu Xi's cemetery, and wanted to leave directly.However, as soon as he took a step, as if remembering his identity, he returned home and took out three letters in a short while.

"All of them, don't come to me again."

After finishing speaking, he left directly, leaving Miki Nozomi alone holding the letter and looking at his back thoughtfully.

Although the uncle's attitude is chilling, but the analysis of the revealed news can be regarded as a rough guess.

First of all, Aunt Avelina is indeed... passed away, and she hasn't even told herself that she pretended to be communicating with her by disguising such letters.

The world will always do more harm to the gentle, and then call it a test.

It's all too familiar.

Miki Nozomi looked down at the letters in his hand and was silent for a while before opening them one by one and looking at the contents inside.

The content inside is still relaxed, until the third letter, which is the last letter.

Aunt Avelina finally revealed the truth about her situation and apologized for hiding it, and at the end, hoped that Nozomi could see if her son was doing well.

[Although you are the same age as Naranja, Axi, I know that you have to mature a lot.I believe this is a gift from God to you.

This request is a bit excessive, but I still hope that you can take a look at how Naranja is doing for me, and if possible, please take care of him a little bit.

I often worry about my vision becoming possible.Of course, it could just be me worrying too much.

Sorry to say so many unpleasant things.So far, I offer my most sincere blessings, and may your future journey be filled with love and hope forever.

— Evelina who loves you forever. 】

Miki sighed.

So I knew it a long time ago, my husband hates children so much that my son doesn't care about it.

In any case, we must definitely find Naranja, and then get this child to go back to school at home!

Carefully putting away the letter and putting it in the bag, Miki Nozomi raised his head. In the already gloomy sky, there were more gray dark clouds gathering, they covered the sun, and the army was overwhelming.

It is going to rain.

Realizing this kind of thing, she took out the map from her pocket, and after a while, she saw the place she wanted to find.

Police station.

I learned from my uncle that Naranja probably hasn't been home or going to school for a long time. He knows that it is impossible for a teenage child to have so much money for him to stay for so long, and the place to live is also a problem. , so there is a high possibility of staying at the home of an acquaintance.

But there is something wrong with this "fooling around". You won't be called a "fooling around" with a bully, but you will be called a "fooling" only if you hang out with a scumbag.

So... It is very likely that they are grouped with the gangsters who gather in the streets and alleys.

If she was an adult, she might directly go up to ask + buy it off, but she is also a child now.

If you really enter that kind of place, you may not be robbed directly, so even though many policemen in this period do nothing or even join forces with the gangsters, you have to go and see.

If it doesn't work, just use money. After all, things are so practical in many cases, and money can control many people.

What if you happen to meet a diligent and enthusiastic policeman?After all, she is also a local, who knows the market here better than a foreigner like her. It takes too much time for her business to start, and it is not suitable for finding someone in a short period of time.

The gathered clouds dropped water droplets in a short while, and within a few seconds, the first one or two drops turned into a splash, and the bustling pedestrians on the road also turned into twos and threes holding umbrellas and walking in a hurry.

In the police station, the policeman with short brown hair put the water glass in his hand on the colleague's table, his face full of relaxation.

"There have been no conflicts and scuffles recently, and there will be almost nothing during the rain, Apache, you can relax."

"I see."

Also with short shaved hair, the young man who came to be a policeman after graduating from high school raised his cap, and his tense face relaxed a little.

Just as he was about to drink the water handed by his senior, there was a sudden sound of the door opening at the police station.

In an instant, Apache put down the water glass and turned to look at the door.

is a child.

The door was ajar, and with the sound of pattering rain, blue umbrellas added a touch of color to the monotony outside.The little girl put away her umbrella and shook it several times outside the door before entering the house.

"Well...you...how are you?"

The little girl with a distinctly Asian face speaks fluent Italian.

"I need help with something, can I?"

"no problem."

Before Apache could observe again, his enthusiastic senior, Moreno, had already agreed.

"Did you get lost with your family?"

Although I know that Oriental people will look younger than their actual age, but looking at it like this, no matter how you look at it, this little girl is still just a child.

"It's a little troublesome to get lost in this kind of weather."

Apache got up and approached the same, thinking in his heart.

It looks like it may be the kind that has not graduated from primary school, but judging by the fluency of Italian, it should not be the kind of "tourism" here, that is, the kind that has settled here.

If so, it will be easier to handle.

"It's not me, it's actually my cousin. He is the same age as me, but because something happened at home, I want to find him."

As he spoke, Miki Nozomi continued to explain while observing the two policemen.

"He ran away from home and didn't have much money, so he should be staying at a friend's house or in a place with many children nearby."

The brown-haired policeman is estimated to be in his 20s, and looks quite normal. The silver-haired policeman is estimated to be [-] or [-] years old, and he should be a newcomer.

"runaway?"

Apache frowned.

"for how long?"

Both involve staying at a friend's house, at least for more than a day.

"Probably...at least a few months."

Apache: ? ? ?

It's been months before you thought of calling the police? ? ?

"Because my home is not here, and I only heard the news recently, and I don't want my cousin to go astray."

Speaking truthfully, Miki Nozomi looked at the two policemen sincerely.

"So I want to ask you to help me, and I can provide it if it's a reward."

Apache: "..."

Apaki, a cute new policeman who has just stepped into the society, stares at Nozomi Miki with indescribable words.

"We are the police!"

How is it possible to ask for a reward?Police investigation is a matter of course!

It was the senior police officer who hurriedly opened his mouth and blocked what Apache wanted to say.

"Don't worry, we will help you if you find someone."

As long as it doesn't involve big things like gangsters, the police can still find someone.

Thinking of this, the brown-haired policeman sighed.

After all, at this time, the police really can only do small things.

"Anyway, since you're here, let's wait for the rain to stop. Your name is..."

"Nozomi Miki...well, my name is not Italian, you can call me Axi."

"Okay, so Ash, do you have a photo of your cousin?"

"This one……"

Miki Nozomi was silent.

"Can I draw it?"

Originally, there was a photo sent by her aunt, but she didn't expect this uncle to ignore her son, so she didn't bring it.

"Not even a photo?"

Apache's brows were almost wrinkled.

Report the crime without taking photos?God knows how many similar little devils can be pulled out on the street just by saying hair color and eye color.

"Don't worry, I'm good at drawing."

Explaining for himself, Miki Nozomi took out the pen and paper he had brought, and quickly painted on the spot.

After a while, a very clear sketch appeared directly in everyone's line of sight. The little boy in the sketch could be said to be completely vivid, and even the expression of unwillingness to admit defeat was instantly felt.

"Well, the name is Naranga Gilka, with black hair and beautiful purple eyes. I'm not sure if he has changed his hairstyle now, but I still remember it as in the painting."

"Naranga Gilka..."

The brown-haired policeman said the name, lost in thought.

"I remember... there was a gardener who was also Gilka, the one who hated children..."

"That is Naranca's father."

Miki Nozomi explained calmly.

"It is for this reason that I want to find Naranja, and if possible, I hope to bring Naranja to live with me."

"Gilka?"

Apache asked suspiciously.

"You even hate your own children?"

"If it's him, then yes."

The brown-haired policeman answered instead.

"He was a dedicated gardener in direct proportion to how much he hated children."

Apache: "..."

"In short, I already understand, but you have to be prepared, little girl."

The brown-haired policeman spoke skillfully.

"A boy of this age can hang out for a few months without any problems. He has probably adapted to this kind of life to a certain extent. Even if he is asked to go back, he will not think much about going back."

It is even possible to be assimilated by those bad people inside, and then pretend to follow back, but in fact unite with those companions and steal the house all over.

This is rare, but it does happen.

"Do not worry."

Miki Nozomi smiled as she recalled that innocent little cousin who had lost all battles.

"There is nothing that can't be done with the influence of 'love'."

If the little cousin still doesn't want to leave after showing his aunt's last letter, then don't blame her for using "physical love" to influence him.

After all, that is also a kind of "love", isn't it :)
