Supernatural ability spring flowers and autumn fall

Qiu also felt that there was something wrong with Dazai recently, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.Comparing the living conditions of the two in the apartment before, the current Dazai seems to be not much different from the previous one, and he will bully him from time to time and order him to do things.

Had to say something different——

"A little more greasy?" Qiu also said unconsciously.

"What's greasy? Teacher Qiuya." The little girl's voice brought Qiuya back to his senses, and Xiaosaki, who was sitting in his arms, raised her head and looked at him with wide chestnut eyes, full of doubts.

"Oh, it's nothing." Qiuya immediately lowered his head and continued to read the waka collection in his hand.This day was the day he came to the second floor of the hotel to teach the five children adopted by Mr. Oda.Among the five children, except for Sakule, the other children have reached the age to go to elementary school, so Shuya assigned additional arithmetic homework to the remaining four, leaving Sakule to listen to him read and write.

"Teacher Qiuya, I saw my name!" Sakuya said, pointing to the book that Qiuya was looking at together. This waka collection was found from Oda Sakunosuke's bookcase.Shuya, who was a little over ten years old at the time, was interested in haiku and poetry, so he could read some of them. This was one of the booklets he gave Sakunosuke Oda for children.

"Ah, this sentence." Following Saku Le's finger, Qiu also read the sentence: ""Xia の 野の传みに咲ける Hime Lily の 知らえぬ恋は苦しきものそ" This is a saying This is the first waka about the bitterness of love. "Looking at this line of waka composed by the famous female singer, Otomo Sakagami, Qiu Ye said with half emotion.

"Bitter love...?" Saku Le, who still couldn't understand the meaning inside, asked doubtfully.

"Yeah, bitter love, it should mean that it is very hard when you have a crush on someone and the other party doesn't know." Qiuya, who doesn't know much about love, explained, "But in the future, Saku Le will never experience such a situation." That's it, Sakule will definitely be very popular in the future." Qiuya said with a half-father mentality with a smile.

"Hey..." Saku Le nodded without knowing why, and continued to look down at the waka with her name on it.

"Teacher Qiuye—the problem is over—" At this time, Yu who was standing next to him yelled loudly.

Qiu also put down Sakile from his arms, handed her the waka book in his hand, and then gently pushed her back, letting her go back to her seat to read.

"As expected of Yuu," Qiuya looked at the boy wearing a yellow hat backwards, took the homework book he handed over and said, "There is always a feeling that Youjun will become an engineer in the future."

"Hey." As the fastest boy to finish the questions, Yu wiped his nose embarrassedly, pulled a chair and sat beside Qiuya, watching him correct the questions above.

"Very good." Qiu Ye, who finished correcting the excellent answers and drew a small red flower on the homework book, announced, "Then next time, Youjun can add one more dim sum!"

"Alas—teacher Qiuya is too biased." Hearing the news, Keji who was beside him said in a drawn out voice.He couldn't solve the arithmetic problem at all, and he was not interested in it. Shortly after receiving the problem, he threw the homework aside and picked up the baseball and gloves to play.

"No partiality," Qiuya said, with an innocent expression on his face, "Keji-kun didn't reward you because you didn't pay attention to the math class once, and your homework is just copying You-kun's answers, don't pretend I don't know. "

"Because I really have a hard time with this." Keji said helplessly. At first, the arithmetic within ten was fine, after all, he had fingers, but as the numbers continued to increase, he couldn't do anything about it.It wasn't his fault that he didn't have thirty fingers.

"Well, everyone has various strengths." Shuya, who knew that Katsumi was better at sports, nodded and let the six-year-old boy go, "If you can lose it in front of Mr. Oda later, Throw a ball he can't catch, and you'll get an extra snack."

Having received a promise, Katsumi regained his spirits, studied the baseball more carefully in his hand, and planned to think about what kind of tricks he could use to get more snacks after Oda made it.

"So, how are you two?" Shuya stood up, walked behind Shinji and Kosuke who were still struggling with the topic, and put his hands on their shoulders.Then he was a little surprised by Xingsuke's situation, "Ah, you have already finished the following questions by yourself." He looked at the homework book of the oldest boy who had completed the task beyond the standard, and said.

"How about it! Surprise!" The boy who had asserted more than two years ago that he didn't need to read or study to volunteer to become a mafia has now taken the initiative to learn.

"It's very good. I was surprised. I believe Mr. Oda will be surprised later." Qiu also smiled, couldn't help but rubbed Xingsuke's hair and said, getting the other party's dissatisfaction with his messed up hairstyle complain.

"Then, only Shinji-kun is left." Qiuya looked at the remaining child who hadn't done the arithmetic and was already nervous and confused, and sat next to him, "Don't be nervous, Shinji's reading grades He is taller than them all, and here is the idea of ​​this question." After proficiently pointing out the points that Shinji card master couldn't do, Shuya looked at the child who successfully solved the remaining steps and smiled.

"Then everyone has completed today's tasks, and the class is over—" He took out the snack box hidden under the table and announced.

The children eat curry for three meals, and they are a little tired of eating, so the snack box that Qiuya brings every time to class is their main goal. Qiuya also made the reward plan for each child based on this .

"Speaking of which," he said with a large gnawing Katsumi in his hand, "When Mr. Shuya comes next time, it will be Xingsuke's birthday." It's Tuesday, and if I remember correctly, Saturday is the oldest child among them. birthday.

"...It's not a good time, birthday." Xingsuke, who was a little awkward in this regard, turned his head and said.

"That's it," Qiu Ye heard one of the members mention the birthday for the first time. He rolled his light blue eyes, thinking of the first salary that was issued recently. He said, "Then I will come over on Saturday and bring you a gift."

"It doesn't matter what the gift is." Kosuke, who has always regarded himself as an 'adult', felt that asking for birthday gifts should be something only children do, so he said awkwardly.

"It still matters," Qiu Ye nodded, agreeing with his own thoughts, "and a person's birthday is a very important day, because it is the day that defines one's own existence." He remembered that Grandpa Yasuo set up Liqiu It's my own birthday, and the simple but warm birthday meal for those three years.After he came to Dazai's house, he never celebrated his birthday again.

"That's up to you," the boy said awkwardly, "...Teacher Qiuya."

Qiu couldn't help chuckling at the teacher's voice. He watched the growth of this awkward but serious boy in the past two and a half years. Although he didn't know whether he would aim to become a mafia in the future, he felt that he, A little can know Oda Sakunosuke's expectations for their five children.Standing on the edge of the window sill, he suddenly saw a man walking towards the restaurant out of the corner of his eye.

"Mr. Oda is back." He turned his head and brought the good news to the children.

"Hurry up and hide—" There was a sudden chaos in the house, the children who were eating snacks together just now ran away, Saku Le went back to the desk and pretended to read, but the lamp on the desk forgot to turn on.Yuu and Shinji ran to the corner, one picked up the game console and the other picked up the novel and began to immerse themselves; Shuya looked at Shinji, and wanted to complain about the book "Red and Black", which he probably couldn't understand at his current age.Katsumi continued to toss the baseball with a baseball glove, thinking about a strategy to get the next extra snack; while the oldest, Kosuke, ran to the bed alone and hid himself to prepare for the raid.

"Then, come on." Qiu Ye, who left the space for the five children, said softly, then made a sign of cheers, opened the door and went out to stay elsewhere.

It was a surprise given to him by Mr. Oda's adopted children, and he wouldn't take part in it casually, and he was long past the age for such pranks.

After staying alone in the bathroom on the second floor for 5 minutes, Qiuya walked back and opened the door of the children's bedroom, and saw five children tied together without any surprise.

"It seems that this surprise failed again?" Qiuya said with a smile and tilted his head, and then looked at the beige windbreaker standing there, "Whether you can get the extra snacks from Katsumi-kun, Mr. Oda will tell me later Bar."

"Good afternoon, Shuya-kun." Oda Sakunosuke turned around and greeted the boy in kimono who came in at the door.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Oda," Shuya nodded in return, pointing to the snack box in front of the desk, "As usual, the children have left you a pastry."

"Thank you, I'm going downstairs to the restaurant, do you want to come with me?" Oda Sakunosuke suggested, "I just saw from the window that Dazai is also here, and I think he will have lunch downstairs."

"That's it," Qiu Ye thought for a while, and finally shook his head, "I still don't want to go down, I'll stay with them here." Qiu Ye pointed to the five children, "After all, I still have to deal with the aftermath. Untie them, don't you?"

"Okay then." Oda nodded, opened the door and planned to leave, the five children who were tied up were of course reluctant to let him go, they were all looking at him.

"Oh right," Shuya thought of something and suggested, "Mr. Oda, can you come back early on Saturday? I plan to give Kosuke-kun a birthday party that day."

"Xingsuke's birthday," Oda Sakunosuke nodded and agreed, "Then do you have anything to say to Dazai after I go down?"

"...Well," Qiu Ye raised his head and pointed at his chin for a while, "Just tell him that there are crabs to eat at night."
