After becoming a chaotic daughter

The weather is getting colder, and when Nanako goes out to go to school every day, she is also wrapped more and more thickly every day.

The sea breeze whimpered through the streets and alleys of Yokohama, rolling down the crumbling withered yellow leaves on the treetops. Most of the days, the sky was dim and the air was cool with a slight tide, but soon, this little tide The mood also dissipated with the arrival of winter.

The dry and cold drowsy winter day makes people feel unmotivated. The detective agency bought a new kotatsu table, opened the door of the tea room, and except for the "resident population" flower bag, you can always see other members who take turns to fish.

A group of people huddled in the kotatsu, played cards and ate oranges, until Kunikida found them and immediately dispersed, and each slipped back to work in their offices as if nothing had happened, with an unfinished sour orange in their mouths. It's not the best time to eat oranges, the cold orange flesh is so sour that people grin their teeth.

The detective agency is full of joy and harmony. The number of employees will only reach ten, making the atmosphere in the agency always relaxed and cheerful. Even the unfavorable weather after the beginning of winter this year will not affect the brisk pace of the members.

But contrary to the detective agency, the entire city of Yokohama has fallen into a downturn. Many shops on both sides of the street have been closed, and there are many more patrolmen on the side of the road. It seems that even stray dogs are more common. Barking restlessly at passers-by.

"...It seems that because several big companies in Yokohama went bankrupt and were acquired, the shops under their names will also be closed and closed. They may be re-opened after liquidation, and may be changed to other businesses, or they may be listed for transfer. go out."

After school, I went to the stationery store with Nanako to buy things. While recalling what I heard from the adults and on the TV, Miwa repeated it to Nanako. She should pay more attention to this aspect, after all, the economic downturn If this is the case, it means that there are fewer opportunities for part-time jobs and a lower average hourly wage in the industry, which will make it harder for her mother to earn money to support her family.

"When I went to deliver the milk in the morning, I heard that the chain supermarket near my house seemed to be changing owners. That's it--the chain supermarket of [Sugikai Club] opened many stores in Yokohama, last week They were closed one after another at the beginning, I passed by the small road behind their warehouse, and heard what the employees said, it has been acquired by [ROMI Co., Ltd.], and it will be reopened next month under a different brand."

She picked up a notebook from the shelf, tilted her head and thought about it: "Speaking of which, I don't seem to have heard of [ROMI Co., Ltd.] in Yokohama before, and I don't know when it was newly opened. "

Taking a new notebook like Miwa, Nanako took a new eraser, and then went to the counter to check out with Miwa.

Although she has gotten used to Japanese, Nanako still can't tell the difference between "Shangji Club" and "Co., Ltd." for words like "club". In her eyes, these clubs are all similar "companies". At a glance, she couldn't even figure out how to break a sentence. The company she was most familiar with was probably the manufacturer of the snacks that Ranpo often ate.

As long as the detective agency doesn't close down, her idiot father will probably be able to survive for a long time, and it will be very difficult to meet a tolerant boss like the president in the next new job.

After paying the bill, the two little girls stood at the door of the store, helping each other put the newly bought stationery into their schoolbags, and Miwa asked, "Didn't uncle come to pick you up today?"

Although she knew that Ranpo was very, very young, but no matter what, Ranpo was still a generation older than her, so she still chose to call Ranpo "Uncle".Today, the senior students all went out for practical lessons, and the basketball team's training was suspended for a day, so she and Nanako came out after school.

Nanako shook her head and said dryly, "Go back today by yourself."

She fumbled in her small pocket with her short hands, took out a small children's mobile phone, and then clicked on the message Luanbu sent her 15 minutes ago to show Sanlun.

【Hotpot cooking in the club today, hurry back to the detective agency after school~! 】

The tail of the sentence is followed by a happy face slapping the table.

"Eat hot pot..." Sanlun stared at the word "hot pot" on the screen and drool for a while, the scene of hot and delicious hot pot popped up in his mind, and immediately shook his head again, turning his attention from his favorite food Moving away from the hot pot, I saw the "detective agency" in the second sentence.

"What's the detective agency?" she asked Nanako, her round blue eyes blinking a few times.

Nanako thought about it, and felt that this question was a bit complicated, so she finally answered Sanwa: "...Dad, the place of work."

"Is that where detective work is?" Miwa asked curiously.

"Hmm..." Nanako thought for a moment, then nodded her head, "Mmm."

"It feels so cool." Sanwa looked at her with wide round eyes, pure admiration on her face.

If it's a "detective" in a novel, it sounds really cool, but her father is a stupid detective.

Nanako thought in her heart that she was very kind and did not break the children's beautiful imagination.

They held hands and walked towards home together, chatting without saying a word.Miwa is a lively little girl, talking to Nanako about the interesting things they heard on the basketball team, the troublesome residents they encountered when delivering milk in the morning, and the gossip about the neighbors, she was almost always talking along the way , Nanako slowly and occasionally responded to her words.

When we arrived at the fork where we should part, after Miwa said goodbye to Nanako, he was about to walk towards the other side of the residential area, but suddenly remembered, and ran back in front of Nanako, asking Nanako to help him get something from his schoolbag.

Miwa is quite tall among children of the same age, and Nanako could only help her open her schoolbag if she squatted down.

Squatting in front of Nanako like a small mushroom, Miwa directed Nanako to flip through the schoolbag she was carrying: "It's on the largest floor, under the pen case, there is a stack of things wrapped in newspaper, have you seen that?" ? That’s it, take it out for me.”

After rummaging through the three-wheeled schoolbag for a long time, Nanako finally felt the touch of newspapers from the bottom of her schoolbag, and then dragged out all the things wrapped in newspapers with her short hands, and put them at her feet. Gang Sanlun closed the schoolbag again.

A stack of something that I don't know what it is, square and hard, was picked up by old newspapers, it is nearly ten centimeters thick, and it feels very heavy when you hold it in your hand.

While thanking Nanako, Miwa opened the newspaper, and inside was a thick stack of...

small advertisement?

Nanako looked at the large stack of things that Miwa was carefully holding in her arms, and scratched her little head in confusion.

It seems to be a recruitment advertisement, densely packed with words on both sides. It seems that the design aesthetics were not considered at all when the typesetting was done. The margins are almost nonexistent.

In the morning, when Sanlu delivered milk and passed by the back door of the supermarket warehouse, not only did he hear the employees talking about changing bosses, Sanwa also heard that they were going to post a job advertisement. The newly established [ROMI Club] seemed to be short of employees, so they printed it. A lot of job advertisements, looking for someone to distribute.Hearing that there was a part-time job, Sanlun immediately pricked up his ears, popped his head with a milk bottle, and took over the job.

As long as you stop by the mailboxes on the way back from school, you can almost send out these small advertisements, and you can earn [-] yen without any effort. You know, the minimum hourly wage in Yokohama is only It's [-] yen, and it won't take an hour to plug in a small advertisement.

A small advertisement was also stuffed for Nanako, and Miwa, who was careful to save money, set off with high spirits, carrying a schoolbag and holding a large pile of small advertisements.

"..."

Seeing the little blue head disappear from sight, Nanako looked down at the small advertisement stuffed into her hand.

[Recruitment of front desk administrative staff ×× name, request...]

[Recruitment of financial appropriation personnel ×× name, requirements...]

[The name of the department manager of the signboard shopping mall ××, request...]

There were a lot of densely written posts, all of which were well-regulated recruitment positions. Nanako couldn't understand whether the recruitment requirements and salary level were considered high. She turned the small advertisement to the back, and there was a small empty area at the end of the page. The contact information of the HR department and the location of the company are printed in a slightly larger bold font.

The location of the location is a bit familiar, just on the coast facing the harbor bridge.

Nanako raised her small head and looked in the direction of the block.Behind countless tall buildings, several black high-rise buildings soaring into the sky stand silently and silently in the port with a sense of presence that cannot be ignored. The height is far higher than all the surrounding buildings and residences. A lookout lighthouse for the city.

Nanako looked at the black high-rise buildings with austere appearance, and then at the very simple advertisement in her hand.

She couldn't figure out why such a big company showed such a huge difference between the office building and the small advertisement. Nanako couldn't figure it out, so she quickly chose to give up thinking. She stuffed the small advertisement into her pocket, Continue to walk in the direction of the detective agency.

The weather was chilly, and even though she was wearing thick leggings, when the cold wind blew, Nanako still shivered expressionlessly, and once again missed the sack school uniform of China.

The wide sweatpants are big enough for her to stuff three pairs of long johns, but even for primary school students in Japan, girls’ school uniforms in winter are still skirts. Put on the warmest one, even if it is fleece, it doesn't seem to have much "warmth" effect.

Carrying a small schoolbag, Nanako braved the cold wind, like a little snail, slowly moving forward along the street with her short legs.The sea breeze in winter was really too strong. She didn't go back to the detective agency from the Linhai Trail as usual, but took a long detour and walked from the urban area.

Walking through commercial blocks and residential buildings, Nanako passed a small park.

The weather is so cold, and it is a working day, the park is deserted at the moment, even the trees have lost their leaves and become bare, looking desolate and desolate.

The park is small, with only one swing and one set of slides, and a man with short white hair is sitting on a wooden bench with peeling paint in the corner.The man was tall, wearing a black suit that looked like a uniform, with his hands in his pockets, his head hanging down, and a pair of small round sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, which slid down a bit, revealing a pair of closed eyes.

On the uneven land directly in front of him, a cardboard box was quietly placed at his feet.

【…】

Nanako stopped in her tracks and stood there with her schoolbag on her back, staring intently at his little sunglasses with her swarthy eyes for a while. The small, round, black little sunglasses seemed familiar.

Her eyes moved down a lot, and landed on the empty cardboard box placed on the ground in front of the man. The box looked familiar, like a box from a snack shop in the shopping street. The lid was opened. The opening is facing the direction opposite to the man.

Nanako touched her small pocket, and there were two coins in it, one 500 yen and one 100 yen, that the lady clerk gave her when she just bought a notebook and eraser.

Running over quietly, Nanako squatted down in front of the man, put the two coins into the paper box without making a sound, stood up, and stared at him with a small expressionless face. He stared at the man sitting on the bench for a few seconds.

physically abled.

Looks young.

And——Nanako lowered her head and looked around the bench again.

[...No erhu. 】

She squatted down, picked up the 100 yen coin from the paper box, stuffed it back into her pocket, and replaced it with the small recruitment advertisement that was stuffed into her by the third round just now.

Carrying the small schoolbag, Nanako ran away again without making a sound.

*******

5 minute later.

Holding the crepes that he had finally lined up to buy in his hand, Xia Youjie glanced at the rendezvous message from Jia Ruzizi on his mobile phone, turned back to the small park, and planned to call his lazy friend Gojo Satoru to prepare to leave leave.

The small park was deserted and desolate, and there was not a single child coming to play. Xia Youjie immediately saw Wujo Wu sitting on a bench in the corner with his head hanging down as if dozing off.Xia Youjie is no stranger to this kind of scene, and Gojo Satoru often has such an indifferent and lazy look to the outside world, making it hard to tell whether he is really sleeping or fake sleeping.

He went up to wake up Gojo Satoru, and handed her a crepe in his hand. Niozi didn't like sweets. When he was in the pastry shop, he also bought salty pastry for her.

Seeing Wujo Wujo stretching his waist lazily and yawning, Xia Youjie leaned over to pick up the empty snack box near Wujo Wujo's feet, which was probably blown off by the wind, and threw it into the trash can of a nearby convenience store. , but suddenly found that there seemed to be something still in the paper box that had been eaten.

A 500-yen coin, with a very crude job advertisement under the coin.

Xia Youjie: "..."

The young man lowered his head, a strand of bangs fell from his forehead, his small eyes narrowed into a line, staring at the things in the snack box, showing a thoughtful expression.

He thought of the appearance of Wujo Satoru he had just seen, and a bold idea came to his mind.

"Satoru." He called Gojo Satoru, who was sitting on a bench eating crepes with his legs crossed, straightened up, and handed him the 500 yen coin in the box.

Gojo Satoru casually reached out to pick it up, and asked casually, "What?"

Xia Youjie pondered for a while, and replied: "The kindhearted people gave you alms."

Gojo Satoru: "... Huh?"

The boy with strange bangs stuffed the recruitment advertisement in his hand into the hand of the boy wearing small sunglasses, and gave him a "good job" look.

Gojo Satoru: "????"

Is there something wrong with Jay or is there something wrong with him?

The author has something to say:

At this time, a passing Nanako has returned to the detective agency to eat hot pot

----

[ROMI Club] ROMI is Mori's Roman sound, disrupted and reorganized

----

Wujo Satoru was originally in a light sleep, but his six eyes were too threatening to Nanako (through the circulation of mantras, he would see that Nanako's resurrected body, soul, and body were incompatible. If you want to see a more detailed explanation, poke the comment area, it's too long It will not be released here, it will not affect the plot), so it was forcibly banned by the world consciousness.

Regardless of whether Nanako is aware of this "superpower", Gojo Satoru cannot use this skill when Nanako is within the range of the six eyes.

But even though the ability was banned, the side effects (great brain power consumption) are still there. At this point in time (first year of high school), Gojo Satoru has not learned the reversal technique, and the brain power consumption can only be recovered naturally.

After being suddenly banned from six eyes, it is like stopping immediately after running 8000 meters. The human body will slack off in an instant, so the light sleep directly becomes a deep sleep (it can be regarded as the level of lethargy) ), so the appearance of Nanako was not found.
