Is Ms. Oda married today? [Comprehensive]

"...Then Ryunosuke asked me if I run an orphanage."

She ended with a calm tone, and took a sip of the extra thick curry.

The shopkeeper, who was bald on his forehead, held up a half-lit cigarette and laughed, "Did Brother Akutagawa actually ask that?"

"Yeah." Oda made a nasal sound.

After that day, it took Oda a few days to complete the formalities for Akutagawa, and put his name under her household registration, but Akutagawa insisted on not changing his surname, and Oda didn't force it either.

In the past few days, Oda informed Akutagawa about the general situation of the other five children, and she also contacted the children, and both parties already knew each other's surname.

After giving the children on both sides a buffer time, on the day Oda was off duty, he took Akutagawa Ryunosuke to the place where the children were placed—

A western restaurant built by the sea.

Today Akutagawa is going to move into a western food restaurant. The middle-aged man who had a good first impression of him had a beer belly and chattered to her while wiping the old table, "Sometimes I wonder, Oda, would you If you really pick it up, the child will set up an orphanage if you pick it up."

"Unfortunately, I don't have the money to set up an orphanage." She replied in a dull voice.

"That's true...but then again, Oda, is it okay for you to let Brother Akutagawa go up alone?"

Oda swallowed a mouthful of extra spicy curry, his bright brown eyes drifted towards the hidden stairs in the corner, and said calmly, "Sometimes facing things alone is also a good growth."

Accompanied by her words full of life philosophy, came the angry roar of the teenager from the attic.

"Oda Kazue, you are going to murder me! You never said that they would greet me at the door with flour on their heads and a water basin on top of their heads!!!"

To be precise, that was to greet her.

Oda Kazue chewed on the curry and thought.

After Akutagawa's roar, there was the sound of children running and laughing overhead. While they were making noise, fine dust also fell from the ceiling.

"Stop for me!"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke let out another angry roar against his dantian, and the slightly hoarse boyish voice easily reached their ears through the steel bars and concrete above their heads, followed by the clear and crisp screams of the five children.

"It's too strong... stronger than Yizhi!"

"Are you the invincible destructive dragon who is going to take away my boss' throne!"

"Xingsuke Kosuke, I've been hung up!"

"Wow-"

"A branch—"

The voice above his head could be called a turmoil. The shopkeeper looked up at the noisy attic, and turned his head to Oda Road, who turned his head and pretended not to hear it.

"growing up?"

Oda Kazue took a sip of tea calmly, showing a very plastic mother-child relationship.

The shop owner didn't bother with this question too much, crossed his arms and asked again: "Speaking of which, Brother Akutagawa doesn't look like someone who would easily agree to you."

"About this... To be honest, I was ready to be rejected at that time." Oda replied calmly, she put down the spoon and looked at the rippling sea outside the window, chasing the endless coastline, recalling the cold eyes , a sharp-eyed boy.

The shopkeeper looked at the woman who was lost in thought, and asked curiously, "What did you do?"

"I didn't do anything." Oda shook his head, turned his head to stare at the empty plate stained with curry pink, and continued to answer the owner's question lightly, "I just want to adopt the homeless Akutagawa."

The shop owner and Kazue Oda are old acquaintances. As soon as she lowered her head, the shop owner knew that she didn't want to talk, so he shook his head and didn't ask any more questions. He smiled and repeated the preface again, "Now with brother Akutagawa, there are six in total. I have a child, and if there are more children in the future, maybe you really want to open an orphanage."

Oda Kazue smiled and drank the iced barley tea handed by the shopkeeper, the cool liquid slipped down his throat and fell into his stomach, and the children's laughter filled his ears.On the surface, she is quietly enjoying the peaceful daily life, but she is still thinking about some trivial but important things in her heart.

Akutagawa's sister and companions don't know where they are, and she needs to find them before the boy forgets his heart and falls into the endless abyss.

In the past few days, Akutagawa Ryunosuke has given her his money one after another. This young man is surprisingly frank, almost answering her questions. He has made it clear in the past few days that he wants to find his sister. and companions.

After listening to his firm speech, Oda Kazue also said to him calmly: "After being adopted by me, you will become a member of my family. You don't need to worry about such things in this family. The task of finding them is left to the adults." to me."

Akutagawa hesitated for a moment at that time, then nodded in agreement.

Akutagawa's ability to nod in agreement shows that he is learning to trust her.

Since Akutagawa wants to trust her, Kazue Oda can't sit still, she needs to come up with something practical to respond to him, so now she is working while investigating the whereabouts of those children.

Oda didn't think about asking Dazai and Ango Sakaguchi for help, and if he went to visit the cadres and intelligence personnel for the sake of a few missing children, it would be too motivating.

The low-level people have a way for the low-level people to find people, and the chores she has done for so many years are not for nothing.

Just as he was thinking, the mobile phone placed on the old wooden table buzzed.

Oda drank the iced barley tea and picked up the phone from the table to quickly flip through it. After she finished reading the newly arrived information, she drank the barley tea in the cup clean, and the last child's surrendered laughter came from above her head.

"I give up, I give up, Brother Ryunosuke! Hahahaha, don't tickle me, I give up!"

The sound of chaos above the head passed, replaced by the uncontrollable laughter of several children. It is conceivable that after being attacked by five children at first, Akutagawa Ryunosuke did not hesitate to fight back, but he was also very good Followed her orders - do not harm them.

"I didn't expect Brother Akutagawa to have tamed Xingsuke. It's really amazing." The shopkeeper lit a cigarette for himself with emotion, "Before that, Xingsuke would not obey anyone except you."

It's summer now, so the ocean currents in the Japan area rotate clockwise, right?Areas that may pass include Kawasaki and Chiba.

While thinking, she put the phone back on the table and said frankly.

"Children are like this. If there is an older and stronger child, that older child will most likely become his dream object."

The shopkeeper touched his round belly, "You mean, you don't want Xingsuke to admire you?"

"Yes." She also took out a cigarette from her pocket and twirled it between her fingers, "I'm not someone to dream about."

Is that Akutagawa Ryunosuke?

Certainly not now.

She and the shopkeeper tacitly thought about it.

Oda stared at the thin cigarette in his hand for a while, then muttered to himself, "It will be in the future."

She used all the cunning of adults on these children, trapping these underage children one after another.The purpose is to let them get on the right track and not follow her old path.

"What?" The shopkeeper didn't hear clearly.

"Nothing, I'm going on a business trip for a week."

Oda didn't repeat it again, just grabbed the lighter thrown by the shopkeeper on the counter, lit the cigarette, and took a deep breath.

Poor quality tobacco passed through her lungs, and she squinted out the window, enjoying the brief pleasure of nicotine.

Memories of the past flashed through her mind. She opened her lips in silence for a moment, and the rising smoke leaked from her fingers and lips, "I'll put the money here, and I'll trouble you to take care of them later."

"What's the trouble? If it weren't for Oda, this store might not be able to continue."

"I'm just a low-level employee. I just collect protection fees for my superiors. I don't have that much ability." She took out a bag of money from her pocket and put it on the table gently, her brown eyes didn't fluctuate at all, "Thank you or the leader Bar."

"Speaking of which, haven't you thought about getting rid of the port mafia?" the shopkeeper asked after taking the money.

The shopkeeper's words drifted over her head, mixed with the smoke she exhaled, and disappeared into the air after a while.

Oda Kazue heard the man's whisper.

[As long as Yizhi wants to leave, he can leave at any time. ]

Can I go anytime?But what is the price.

Although that man said so, Oda Kazue did not dare to risk the children at all.

She stared blankly at the rapidly dissipating smoke, and said hoarsely, "Besides, this is not a place where you can come and go freely."

Saying that, Oda narrowed his eyes, and blew out a puff of smoke indifferently, staring at the lines on the aging counter thoughtfully, and questioning himself in his heart.

If she had agreed to that person at that time, would she not have lived such a life of fear every day.

However, if there is no if, she does not regret her initial hesitation.

If she had left with that person without hesitation that day, that child might have been executed by the former leader, instead of being a cadre of the Hong Kong gangsters like now, and working with Dazai to create income for the port mafia every day.

But it's a good thing or a bad thing for that kid to be an officer in the port mafia.

Oda was meditating with a cigarette in his hand. The shopkeeper took a look at her, thinking she was worried, so he hurriedly comforted her: "You don't have to do anything here in Yokohama. Unless you leave Yokohama, no matter what industry you have, you have to be involved with the port mafia. superior."

"Ah."

Leave Yokohama.This is even more difficult.

Afterwards, she chatted with the shopkeeper uncle for a while and finished smoking.

After the cigarette was burned out, Oda raised his hand and threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray handed by the shopkeeper, then got up and went out the door.She stood at the door of the western restaurant and blew the wind for a while, blowing away the smoke all over her body, and by the way, she threw her full of melancholy into the carefree sea breeze.

Before Oda entered the house again, he stood at the door and raised his arms to smell left and right, making sure that there was no smell of smoke on his body, then pushed open the door and walked up the creaking stairs.

Passing through a corridor that was also aged, she came to the door with a crooked wooden sign saying 'Saku, Kosuke, Shinji, Yu, Katsumi'.

As soon as she opened the door, she was hugged by the girl standing at the door. Sakule smiled and yelled, "Ichie, Ichie, Kosuke was defeated by Ryunosuke", coquettishly at her.The girl she adopted at first had the deepest relationship with her. It's not that the other children don't get close to her, it's probably just... girls are like little padded jackets.

"Hey, Sakule, you turned your back too fast!" Xingsuke raised his head and said dissatisfiedly when he heard her words.

Saku Le replied with a smile: "Because Brother Ryunosuke is really amazing."

Apart from Saku Le, the other three boys also nodded.

"It looks like Kosuke is weak." This is Shinji.

"That's right." This is Kemi.

"I agree." This is excellent.

Several children were bickering loudly, and Oda easily picked up the girl who smelled of sweetness and sunshine, walked over the colorful building blocks scattered all over the floor, and walked to the boy in black who was sitting on the children's mat .

"Ryunosuke, I will be on a business trip for a few days, and then they will leave you alone."

The boy who was called by her name was still a little uncomfortable. He raised his head and glanced at her, his dark eyes twinkled like stars.

Then he remained silent for a while, turned his head and stared at the messy wall drawn by several children with colored crayons, and gave a short 'um'.

She didn't say any more, and turned to the girl holding her neck: "Saku Le, please add Ryunosuke's name on the door plate."

"Leave it to me!"

The girl smiled, hugged her neck and pressed a wet kiss on her cheek.

When Oda smiled and kissed her forehead, he saw the boy staring at her intently from the corner of his eye.

"Does Ryunosuke want it too?" She put Sakule down and pushed the girl's back.

"No, I don't mean anything, I just don't understand why I have to do such a meaningless..." As he was expressing his reflections expressionlessly, he was pressed to his face by the soft little hand raised by the girl exuding a sweet scent, and he was confused. Drooling all over his face, the rest of the words stuck in his throat for a long time before he could helplessly squeeze out, "...things."

He stared at the smiling girl and didn't say anything to blame.

To put it bluntly, just being kissed by a child, he doesn't have much reaction.

"Good morning kiss, good night kiss, this is what Saku Le taught me." Oda smiled quietly and asked, "How, how does it feel after being kissed by the little princess."

What it feels like, definitely feels pointless.

But the little girl smiled innocently in front of him, and he inexplicably thought of his younger sister who was hiding behind him with a shy smile.

Silver... where is she now.

"...I don't know." He didn't say anything to spoil the scenery, but just expressed his feelings truthfully.

"That's right, you'll understand after a while." She smiled easily, looking at the unconsciously compromising young man, "In short, just enjoy the life you should have at your age, and don't think about anything else for now."

Don't think about anything else?

Akutagawa didn't know if this decision was correct.

But the titular mother said so, and he felt he needed to do what she said.

When he agreed to become a member of her family, he made up his mind to manage and maintain their bond well, so listening to her was the best way.

"I understand, please." He said coldly to the woman squatting down in front of him.

Oda raised his hand and rubbed his head, messing up the short hair on his forehead. The young man who didn't sense the danger from her just sat upright, looked at her with piercing eyes, and let her Touching his head, he looked like a pitch-black fine dog seriously waiting for his master to come home.

After several times of rubbing, he didn't even move a few strands of hair on his head.

"Family members don't need to be so polite." Her voice was calm, not much different from Akutagawa's without a trace of ups and downs.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke looked at her calmly: "I understand that my former partner, my sister, has a deep bond with me."

"That is to say, do you mean 'give me some time'?" Oda asked in a daze.

"Yes, it takes time to get along with people, emotion to get along with people, and mutual management to build bonds with people." He seriously put his way of doing things in front of her.

"That's it, you know more than I thought." Oda, who was not educated, but was surprised by the ordinary truth of his adopted son, paused, retracted his hand into his pocket, took out a box and handed it over, " Now that this is the case, I feel relieved. During the few days when I am away, I can ask the store manager if I don’t understand anything. If I want to contact me, I can use my mobile phone. My contact information has been stored in it.”

He solemnly took the mobile phone from her hand. The body is still very new, and it doesn't look like it has been used for long.

"This is the phone?"

"Yes, but I don't have that much money, so I bought second-hand ones temporarily."

"It doesn't matter, as long as there is an item that can contact you, I will be satisfied."

After he took the phone, Xingsuke and others who saw the situation ran to them, or said enviously around Akutagawa.

"Ah, you are partial to Yizhi, and you bought it for Brother Ryunosuke first!" Xingsuke ran over and said, lying on Akutagawa Ryunosuke's shoulder.

She flicked the boy's forehead, "I'm not partial, Xingsuke, I'll buy it for you when you grow up. I bought it for Ryunosuke because he is the oldest among you. If you have anything, you can tell Ryuu Nosuke, let him pass it on to me."

They have never objected to her words, even the former child Wang Xingjie touched his forehead and stretched out his hand to her: "Are you ready?"

"Well, it's done." She stretched out her hand and hooked Xingsuke's fingers, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. I'm leaving Yokohama tonight."

"Hey? So fast?" Xingjie curled his lips and said in a dissatisfied voice, "Be careful along the way."

The other four children also said to her, "Be careful all the way", the black-haired boy surrounded by the children was silently staring at the phone in his hand, and Oda didn't force him to say anything.

She rubbed their heads respectively, and when she got up and walked to the door, she heard a small voice of "be careful on the road" hidden in the background of the children.

He'll be a good boy, and he'll be a good big brother.

She opened the door with a smile and turned to them.

"I'm leaving, wait for me to come back."

Will she be a good mother?

The author has something to say: I committed the old problem of writing the article in the last chapter again, and wrote a long series of psychological activities, and then I felt uncomfortable about what I thought about last night. Today, when I edited the article, I went back and deleted a large paragraph :з」∠)_But it does not affect the next reading

Obviously sometimes the information conveyed by the dialogue is more interesting than the mental activity, but I can't get rid of the old problem, melancholy

I misremembered in the last chapter, Odasaku adopted 15 children in the if line of Kurotoshi Shirakata, I was wondering where my memory of him adopting more than 20 children came from...

And I re-read the novel, and found that the description of Oda Tsukuru's eyes is brown, and I have always described it according to the blue in the animation... I thought about it, and changed it to the brown written by Mr. Asagiri

Finally... I am looking for a comment on my daily collection [roll]
