5t5 always grabs my hat

"Accidentally ended up in this impoverished family, but still shines with the brilliance of genius, who is it?

——That’s right, it’s me (そう、私です)”

The name Baiye seemed to be nowhere to be found in the police station. After careful consideration, Oda Sakunosuke finally decided to take her in for a while.

It's not that he didn't suspect anything, but now he is just a grassroots member of Hong Kong gangsters, and not many people know his supernatural ability...

Bai Ye's various performances are not like acting.

Of course, he felt that no one would choose to act like this...

Oda Sakunosuke glanced at Shiraha, who was helping a few children with their homework, and touched his pocket, only to find that the cigarette had been broken.

——Bai Ye is a genius.

Whether it is in this home or anywhere, it is the best.

Anything can be taught once, the books read can be memorized verbatim, and the children's homework is also easy.

What surprised him even more was that the heating at home had been broken for a long time, and the heater that the maintenance master said was hopeless was also repaired by her.

Although the electricity bill is rising, he no longer has to worry about the children's heating in winter.

And that's just by reading a few books.

——In other words, the white leaves that can be repaired after reading a few books are the real ones.

So after reading the books at home, he went to apply for a library card, so that Bai Ye could read more books.

In order to prevent her from being obsessed with books for a long time, he also made an agreement with Bai Ye in advance that he would definitely spend more than three hours with the children every day.

……

…………

Bai Ye didn't know what Oda Sakunosuke was thinking, she just felt a little bored now.

Although I lost my memory, everything around me is so easy to understand.

Whether it is a textbook of astronomy for children, or a heating repair that makes Oda Sakunosuke helpless, a strange language that I occasionally recognize while watching TV downstairs, or a research problem brought by a university professor I met in a store. ...Nothing brought her any freshness.

The family is poor.

The guest put down the money, and the sound of wind chimes when they left came into Bai Ye's ears, and she calmly turned a page of the book.

Very poor.

Oda Sakunosuke's five children were outside and didn't know what to say. They played nearby during the day and slept in a small bedroom at night.

As an adult, he himself has his own separate bedroom, but it is also a functional room integrated with the study and work room.

After letting her out to sleep now, she can only wait for the shop downstairs to make samples and sleep on the first floor.

These children are indeed, as Oda Sakunosuke said at first, extremely annoying.

From time to time, he will disturb her reading, beg her to tell a story before going to bed at night, and occasionally pull her to play games like hide and seek.

But... still within the tolerable range.

Bai Ye turned another page of the book.

With fast reading ability, it is the first time for her to taste a book so slowly, and it is also the first time to read this type of book.

According to the introduction, it tells the story of teenagers and girls.

As early as the first day, she had read Oda Sakunosuke's collection of books.Regarding her behavior that was obviously different from ordinary people, Oda Sakunosuke only asked her not to expose it to others, and said nothing else.He even specially obtained a library card from a nearby library for her to use.

And this book was a gift from the owner of that library, and it was completely different from what she usually read.

Oda Sakunosuke is a very kind, considerate, and very distant person.

Bai Ye liked his sense of distance very much.

Oda Sakunosuke also taught her little by little knowledge that cannot be seen in books.

Common sense in dealing with people and knowledge about the society.

Like now.

"Baiye Baiye, do you think this looks good?"

Saki Le is the only girl in Oda Sakunosuke's family, and she is also the child who is closest to Bai Ye.

She was holding up the wreath made of wild flowers, and handed it to Bai Ye with shining eyes.

Bai Ye raised her head from the book, looked at Saki Le and smiled, "It's very beautiful."

Oda Sakunosuke said: You can try to smile when you meet people's eyes, and respond appropriately to the expectations in other people's words, which is also a way of survival.

She is doing well.

Saki Le, who got the compliment, happily wanted to put it on Bai Ye's head, but the person who was still close to her just now pulled away instantly.

Bai Ye didn't like having physical contact with others, so she immediately backed away, refusing, saying, "Sorry, please don't touch me."

Oda Sakunosuke said: Remember to say please, sorry, trouble, you and other words.

She's doing well... right?

In the next second, Bai Ye watched helplessly as Xiao Le left in front of her sadly and at a loss with her injured face.

"..." Oda Sakunosuke was not there, so Shiraha could only ask the shop owner who was busy at the bar in confusion: "What's wrong with Sakule?"

"When asking someone, remember to add 'excuse me'."

A serious voice appeared in his mind, and Bai Ye added: "Excuse me."

Hearing her question, the shop owner temporarily stopped what he was doing and smiled gently.

"Saku Le likes Miss Bai Ye very much, so your rejection must have made her sad."

"……like?"

Bai Ye, who was sitting by the bar, opened her eyes slightly, and was caught off guard by a new word.

The book in her hand is no longer fragrant.

Not only is it not fragrant, but it is also a bit hot.

This book was different from the type she used to read, and she found it a bit difficult to understand, so she took it downstairs and read it page by page.

These two chapters happen to tell the story of a man who was devastated by the woman he liked.

Bai Ye couldn't sit still, she stood up and put the book upside down on the bar.

"Boss, I haven't finished the book, don't move."

The boss was taken aback for a moment, and without saying 'where are you going', Bai Ye had already left the door.

He shook his head helplessly, and looked at the missing person notice hanging in the store.

Has it been a week?The phone rang, but there wasn't even a reliable one.This child, what kind of life did he live before so that he doesn't understand anything.

Unexpectedly, Bai Ye came back again.

Standing at the door, she said seriously, "Thank you, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Then he left again.

Shopkeeper: ... Well, it's very polite.

It's just a little stiff.

After Bai Ye came out of Oda's house, she arrived at a commercial street. Before she could decide what to do, a small sharp voice next to her caught her attention.

"Wow - this is what I want!"

A young mother was coaxing a child who was lying on the ground and refused to get up with a cheerful expression.

"Okay, okay, I'll buy it for you." Unable to hold back her child, the young mother quickly compromised.

The child who heard this sentence immediately beamed with joy, and the tears on his face were wiped away. He happily went into the store with his mother to buy the beautiful doll he liked.

Bai Ye was thoughtful.

The last time she accompanied Oda Sakunosuke to look for Saku who hadn't come home for a long time, she seemed to be standing at the door of a store like this.

"……I understand."

Surprised by her own intelligence, Shirahiro showed a happy smile.

Oda Sakunosuke said that she didn't know how to interact with people——isn't it very simple?Just get what they want.

Oda Sakunosuke, who was working, suddenly had an itchy nose and sneezed hard.

Osamu Dazai next to him asked with concern.

"Have a cold?"

Oda Sakunosuke rubbed his nose, "Maybe a little."

Although the heating was repaired by Shiraha, it was still a bit cold sleeping in the shop...

Ango Sakaguchi raised his head from the document: "Speaking of which, I heard you said that you picked up another child and brought it home. How is it now?"

Today is very rare, the three of them get together to work.

Although there are only two people who are really working, there is one who is addicted to the game.

"Hmm? Why didn't I know?" The sound of the game's failure came just in time, and Osamu Dazai raised his head, his eyes opened like a surprised big cat.

The slightly curly hair is leaning against the sunlight coming in from the window lattice, revealing a little warm color. Although he is wearing a serious suit, he still looks like a child who hasn't grown up.

"You just came back from a mission in Tokyo. It's normal if you don't know." Ango Sakaguchi glanced at Osamu Dazai with a slightly speechless expression of "how are you pushing me away?", and then asked Sakunosuke Oda. : "I remember hearing you mention it once, that child has only been brought back for a week."

Oda Sakunosuke sighed unconsciously when he thought of Shiraha.

"A good boy, but..."

This matter was somewhat boring to him, he wanted to find something out of his pocket, but it was empty.

Oda Sakunosuke pressed his forehead.

Come to think of it, in order to save money, he temporarily quit smoking.

The man who had a headache when he thought of the expenses waved his hand, "Let's not talk about this."

Hearing these words, Osamu Dazai and Ango Sakaguchi looked at each other in unison.

Although Oda Sakunosuke looked down at the document, he was already thinking about finding a part-time job.

He is just a low-level person in the mafia that no one cares about. There should be no problem with part-time jobs, but I don't know if there is extra time...

With one more person in the family, his finances went directly from a deficit to an abyss.

Bai Ye likes to read books. Borrowing books is not a big expense, but... she can't hold back her reading speed is too fast.In addition, she learned how to repair the heater by reading a book before, and repaired the heater at home that was put on hold because she had no spare money to replace it.

After it is put into use, it is another expense.

The money for printing missing person notices, and the phone bills are constantly increasing because there are always people who call indiscriminately... and I have to prepare winter clothes for Bai Ye and a few children...

Not counting Bai Ye's food expenses.

Even as a mafia, the word "no money" is like two mountains on the shoulders of this young man.

misery.

After work, Oda Sakunosuke looked at his friends in surprise.

"You are coming to my house today? Why?"

Ango Sakaguchi pushed his glasses, "It's been a long time since I tasted the curry rice of the shop owner."

Osamu Dazai smiled and said, "Is it inconvenient?"

"It's not inconvenient..." Oda Sakunosuke thought for a while before saying, "Then let's go together."

Ango Sakaguchi was in charge of driving, Sakunosuke Oda was in the passenger seat, and Osamu Dazai was in the back seat.

"Odasaku, why did you suddenly bring another child home? How old are you? What kind of person?"

Osamu Dazai moved to the front row like a curious baby.

Hearing his question, Oda Sakunosuke covered his mouth and thought for a while.

"At that time, I was just thinking, if I don't save... this child seems to be dying soon."

He will also realize now, the real purpose of the two friends going to his house for dinner.

Don't worry about that child.

"It's like dying?" Osamu Dazai let out an 'ah', and a dark color flashed across his brown eyes: "Could it be that you were injured?"

"No, this child is in good health." Oda Sakunosuke paused, thinking of the day when he found out that Shiraha's wound could heal quickly, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Bai Ye is no ordinary child.

Whether it's her physique, or the ability to read quickly.

"What happened?" Sakaguchi Ango asked.

Talk to the two of them, it shouldn't matter.

Oda Sakunosuke pondered for a moment: "It happened to be raining that day..."

——When Oda Sakunosuke, who had just finished work, was passing the bridge, his eyes were suddenly attracted by the white leaf standing in the middle of the river.

The river was not deep, even if he left immediately, and the rain was heavier, nothing would happen to the girl.

But it happened that at that moment, Bai Ye also looked towards him.

When their eyes met, he was stunned by the child's look.

In those black eyes, there was only endless emptiness and the strangeness of the world, they were alive but lifeless.

When he came back to his senses, he had already jumped down and pulled her ashore.

"The child lost all his memory. He didn't even remember what his name was, how old he was, and whether he was from this country."

Since then, it has been kept until now.

"It's too dangerous to take in such an unknown person."

Ango Sakaguchi said disapprovingly.

"Indeed, the time and place where she appeared are also very strange." Osamu Dazai nodded in agreement, his eyes suddenly lit up, and suggested: "Just bring her to the organization..."

It was rare to interrupt Dazai Osamu, Oda Sakunosuke said: "Shiraha is a good boy."

Just when the car stopped, it was already at his house.

Oda Sakunosuke opened the door and walked down, his face was warm.

"Although I don't remember anything, I believe she must have been a very kind child before."

Ango Sakaguchi, who was still in the car, put his hands on the steering wheel and watched the back of Oda Sakunosuke walking into the store.

"How to say?"

Osamu Dazai opened the car door, his eyes darkened: "Let's take a look first."

They didn't meet their eyes either, but they seemed to have made their own decisions, got out of the car and walked to the store together.

But unfortunately, Bai Ye is not at home.

"Shiraha said you'll be back later?" Oda Sakunosuke, who was informed of the news as soon as he entered, frowned.

The shop owner was obviously worried, "Xingsuke went to the library an hour ago, but there was no sign of Miss Baiye, and I don't know where she went..."

Oda Sakunosuke thought for a moment and said, "I'll go find her, you guys wait for me here for a while."

Bai Ye alone is too dangerous.

"Don't worry, Odasaku." Osamu Dazai stopped him and asked the shop owner, "Did anything happen before she left?"

The shop owner hurriedly explained what happened in the afternoon.

Saku Le was beside her at the moment, almost crying.

Oda Sakunosuke had to comfort her for a while.

"Odasaku, is Baiye running away angry at me? Will she come back?" Saku Le likes Baiye very much. After she came, she repaired the heating, and it was so warm at night that it was no longer cold.He will also tell them the stories in the book when Oda Tsukuru is away, and help her with homework that she cannot do.

Even for their five children, they will listen carefully to what they say and accept all their opinions.

Oda Sakunosuke is usually very busy, and they can only play together by themselves. After Shiraha came, even if she was serious about reading, as long as she called her, she would put down the book and accompany them.

But now it's gone...

The more Saku Le thought about it, the sadder she became, and she couldn't help crying.

"I, I just want to help Bai Ye put it on. She said that her head always feels empty, so I just want to give her a gift—"

As soon as she cried, the other children also became sad, jumping out and saying that it was her own idea.

"Okay, don't be sad." Oda Sakunosuke reassured: "I will definitely bring Bai Ye back, you wait at home obediently."

In fact, it's not too late now, but Bai Ye's specialness made him worry.

Any wound will heal quickly.

It is also because of this that he has never dared to look for Bai Ye's family members in a big way, and only posted missing person notices in a small area.

"We'll look for it with you." Ango Sakaguchi said, "Do you have any photos?"

The shop owner quickly took out a bunch of missing person notices that hadn't been posted yet, "This is Bai Ye's photo."

A black and white photo of the girl was printed on the flat white paper.

Even with a slightly distorted print, the girl's pretty face can still be seen.

Such beauty is dangerous at night in Yokohama.

Osamu Dazai reached out and took one, raising his eyebrows slightly.
