"...Medea took out from her little box an ointment called the oil of Prometheus, whoever anointed himself with this ointment would be invulnerable that day, invulnerable to fire, and invulnerable all day long. Has the power to overwhelm people..." The boy's voice was clear and pleasant, he held up a dilapidated scriptbook, and told the stories in it, and the children sitting around him also held their faces, Listen carefully.

After reading this paragraph, Tsunayoshi Sawada put down the book, took out a large bottle of antifreeze from behind, coughed in embarrassment, and recited the statement he had thought up earlier.

"So...Brother happens to have a bottle of 'Prometheus ointment' here, let's see who is so lucky to become an invulnerable hero today?"

After saying this, the young man was a little embarrassed, so he didn't dare to look away at the clear and trusting eyes of the children in front of him.

The man felt that the boy's awkward appearance was really cute.

In addition to the fixed course teaching every semester, Vengley also encourages the students to participate in more off-campus volunteer activities, and going to the orphanage to accompany those children has always been advocated by the college.

The director of the orphanage where the boy often came was already a bit old, and many things in the hospital were in disrepair. After the boy came here, he often helped repair some things, and played with the children for a while.

But what he likes most is to listen to the old dean sitting on a small bench with a bent body, squinting his eyes, wearing thick glasses, and reading his favorite ancient Greek poems slowly. myth.

Some of the content that is not suitable for children has been picked and cut by the dean, but even the remaining part has its unique charm that can not be tired of listening to.

However, the health of the old dean is getting worse and worse... It is already a dying year, and he still has to manage the livelihood of the orphanage. He is supposed to enjoy his old age, but he is still very busy, so the task of reading the story this time The young man took the initiative to take him over, and it would be good to be able to share more with the old dean.

Now that it is mid-winter, the conditions in the orphanage are not very good. There are often children who get sores from the cold when it comes to this season, but they refuse to apply antifreeze ointment because they think it is oily and stubborn.

It just so happened that there was such a passage in the story I read today, and the boy went on to play it a little bit... With the uneasy little heart of "deceiving children", Sawada Tsunayoshi tried to make himself behave more naturally.

"I!"

"I...I want to apply Prometheus ointment too!", the children below raised their little hands one after another in response.

Face cream, which was disliked in the past, suddenly received unprecedented popularity. The young man said in a hurry: "Don't worry, don't worry... come one by one, everyone can have overwhelming power..."

Hearing this, a little boy with black hair and black pupils among the children who seemed to be dismissive of the 'Prometheus ointment' suddenly brightened his eyes, moved his steps, and stood at the end of the line with a face of reluctance.

After applying antifreeze, most of the children immediately ran out to have fun, and couldn't wait to try the powerful power they had just acquired.

But a girl with light orange hair sat down on the bench and didn't move for a long time.

The boy was a little worried, so he temporarily stopped what he was doing, walked towards the girl, squatted down and asked her gently: "What's the matter, Kyoko...won't you go out to play with everyone?"

The girl looked up at him, with a bit of stubbornness in her red eyes. "Gang...I heard people say that my parents put me at the gate of the orphanage because I was too weak...then they will come to pick me up after I put on the 'Prometheus Ointment'. ..”

Hearing the girl's sobbing tone, the boy was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he felt uncomfortable for a long time.

The girl looked at him seriously, as if she was looking for the answer she was looking for.

The boy couldn't say anything in the end, he just rubbed the girl's head lightly.

The girl was silent for a while, and soon burst into laughter. She smiled firmly, and said in a seemingly incoherent way: "Gang, you must be a descendant of the sun god, right?"

"Huh...?" The boy, who was still immersed in some sentimental emotions, didn't quite understand why the girl said that suddenly.

Seeing his doubts, the girl tiptoed lightly, and put her arms around the boy's neck firmly; the boy with his back to the children couldn't see a black-haired boy behind him, who seemed to be eating people for a moment. expression.

The girl explained softly: "Because Ah Gang is very warm...and in Greek mythology it is also said that 'all descendants of the sun god have a pair of shining golden eyes', so it must be so."

The boy occasionally uses his ability to amuse the children, and every time, the bright golden color flowing in the boy's eyes is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off.

After finishing speaking, the girl put a bright smile on her face again, waved her hand, and went out to play with other children.

The rest of the children who were still waiting for the anointing were chatting to pass the time, and when they saw the girl hugging the boy, they not only discussed, "Sasakawa is really cute...Even Tsuna likes him so much. "

Sasakawa Kyoko is the most well-behaved and lovely girl among them, and many little boys secretly like her.

Tong Yanwuji, the children were chatting happily here, but they didn't notice the low air pressure around the black-haired boy next to them, which was becoming more and more dissipated and concentrated. Everyone just felt that the indoor temperature seemed to drop a lot in an instant. Instinctively moved further away from the black-haired boy.

Here, the boy adjusted his mentality and reapplied the face cream for the children, but his mood was obviously much lower.

Finally, came the last black-haired child.

Seeing that the boy seemed unhappy with his stern face, Tsunakichi asked calmly, "Hi... I don't seem to have seen you before... Mr. Toru Toru?" When it came to the name tag on the child's chest, he just said it out.

But it is rare to have two "ten"s in the name, and the boy couldn't help being a little puzzled for a while.

"...Hmm." The black-haired boy who was watching the boy's movements on his face responded indifferently.

"...", the atmosphere was very embarrassing for a while, but fortunately, the young man didn't care too much. It is not uncommon for such a lonely child in the orphanage. He continued to say with a good temper: "Look at Mr. It seems that you don't really want to apply 'Prometheus ointment', what made you change your mind?"

Hearing this, the boy's gaze suddenly caught the young man who was seriously anointing him, and stared at him for a long time, until Tsunayoshi Sawada looked back strangely.

"Because I want to have the power to overwhelm people."

The child paused word by word, and said very seriously.

Sawada Tsunayoshi: "...That's it, what a great idea." The boy praised sincerely, but for some reason, there was nothing wrong with this sentence, but when he just heard the boy say that, he always felt that Where is the tone wrong...

But soon the boy had no time to think about it, he was startled by the hideous scar on the boy's arm in his hand, he quickly rolled up the boy's sleeve, and pulled it up to his eyes for a closer look.

It was a patch of black frostbite marks, which were not formed recently. It looked like it should have been left after frostbite a long time ago. Suddenly, the boy's tightly covered neck seemed to have similar marks. The boy was so anxious that he opened it Black sweater for boys.

Ten Hara Toru: "——!"

I saw that the boy's body was covered with such large frostbite marks, which looked shocking on the child's immature body.

The boy bit his lower lip uncomfortably, remained silent for a long time, and then hugged the boy into his arms.

"I'm sorry...it must have hurt..." Just thinking about the scene of a child suffering from cold and starvation in the ice and snow made the teenager feel uncomfortable.

On the contrary, the boy who was saved by him was stunned for a moment, and then hugged the boy tightly with his backhand, patted the trembling back of the boy like a little ghost, and the roles between them seemed to be reversed for a moment. .

"It doesn't hurt...it doesn't hurt at all." The boy said in a low voice.

The long hours of waiting in the freezing cold were mind-numbing, but fortunately, he found his sun;

Hearing what the boy said, the teenager seemed to feel a lot better; he straightened up, but still lowered his head, as if trying to hide his red eyes, but the black-haired boy just stared intently.

"Hmm..." For a moment, a familiar feeling seemed to rise in the boy's heart, but it quickly disappeared.

He continued to smear on the boy, fearing that the boy would get frostbite again, and he didn't dare to let go of every inch of the boy's body, especially the places with those scars.

Ten Hara Toru: "..."

In the boy's black pupils, an extremely deep dark red flashed, and after a while of tumbling, it quickly faded away.He grabbed the boy's hand that was still hovering in front of his chest.

Kokichi Sawada:"?"

"No need." The boy said sullenly.

"It's almost finished, it won't be good if you get frostbite again." The boy persuaded earnestly, but the boy only felt that the place touched by the boy was full of heat, and it went straight to his forehead, and he didn't want to say anything. .

"Okay...", the young man had no choice but to force him, so he let the boy go.

Seeing that the boy seemed to be leaving quickly, Sawada Tsunayoshi hurriedly stopped him again, groped in his pocket for a long time, took out a toffee, handed it to the child, and rubbed his head by the way.

"Hush—eat secretly, don't be discovered by the dean." The boy made a silent movement.

The candy paper that wraps the toffee is printed with cute cartoon patterns of rabbits, which is designed to cater to the preferences of children.

The boy looked at the candy in his hand, then looked up at the lion-eared boy whose eyes were still red, and suddenly felt that compared to a male lion, the boy seemed more like a soft, cute and easily frightened rabbit.

The boy put down the candy without saying a word, nodded, and then left without looking back.

"Long wait... Mr. XANXUS."

As soon as he came out of the orphanage, he saw a man in a suit waiting not far away. The brown-haired boy immediately ran to the man, smiling brightly, waiting for the man to rub his hair as a reward as usual.

To be honest, he didn't expect that the man would suddenly say that he would come to pick him up.

The young man told the man what he saw and heard all the way, XANXUS listened carefully without saying a word.

Even though he already knew everything about those things, he still didn't mind listening to the young man talk about it.

The feeling of a young man is like the sun in winter, warm but not glaring, tolerant but not ostentatious.

Once people hold it, they never want to let it go, they must put it in their hearts and treasure it well.

As he was talking, the young man unknowingly talked about the frostbitten boy he met today. The original high-spirited tone gradually sank, and the young man's lips tightened into a straight line. The man looked at him like It was because of some kind of bewitchment that at that moment, all the thoughts of "not affecting the youth competition" were thrown out of his mind. At this moment, the man just wanted to follow his heart.

"Mr. XANUXS..."

Seeing the man's face getting closer, the boy called out in a daze.

In an instant, it's like a heart is like a thunderous drum.

In the man's red pupils, there seemed to be countless red maples blooming in an instant, reflecting frequent ripples on the supposedly quiet and deep lake.

"Well--"

The young man only felt that the kiss that day seemed to be mixed with the fragrance of milk, reflecting the lips and teeth, sweet and cloying.

The author has something to say:

A milky kiss, because XANXUS ate the candy from Ah Gang^q^
