The vest is played on the face of the card

Komaji subconsciously stood where he was.He found Sakurai Yuto's attitude very strange, but he couldn't tell why it was so strange.Komaji held the shiitake mushroom in his hand, and he asked suspiciously, "You...are you still picky eaters at such an old age?"

A child from a poor family like him has no right to be a picky eater.

If it was normal, Yuto Sakurai would explode at one o'clock, lose his temper indiscriminately, emphasizing that he is not a picky eater, but just doesn't want to eat.

However, this time he was silent.

When Komaji said this, Sakurai Yuto was chopping vegetables.

He doesn't seem to be very good at cooking. After the water boils, he starts to throw ingredients into it according to the steps of the recipe. After the ingredients are cooked, he can add curry cubes to the white water. Such a simple dish is Yuto Sakurai. can also learn.

These curry cubes were given to him by Mr. Belt in the previous world.

Mr. Belt also prepared for him a lot of instant food that can fill his stomach even if he lives alone.After Yuto Sakurai cooked the curry, the rice had just been cooked, and when he turned to look for the container, he saw Komaji's expression.

Sakurai Yuto said: "I'm going far away next time, I don't need you to work for me anymore."

Komaji opened his eyes wide: "What does this mean?"

Sakurai Yuto thought about it, and he said: "It's my problem. I interfered with your fate at will, but I didn't think that it might be unfair to you."

Komaji couldn't understand what he was saying.

In fact, before he could react, he had already finished the meal in a daze.No more words were spoken between them.

Curry is a taste that Komaji has never tasted before.

The products far beyond this era, the future instant food, in order to give customers the best taste experience, so great efforts have been made on the taste, even a mediocre cook like Sakurai Yuto can easily make it Food out of this world beyond imagination.

In this era of Komaji, there has never been such delicious food.

But Komaji felt that he was a bit stingy, he didn't understand what happened, and in a daze, he couldn't even distinguish the taste that the food should have.When he finally finished eating the food, Komaji heard Sakurai Yuto ask him in the same tone as before: "Are you still hungry?"

Komaji raised his head, he said blankly, "What?"

Sakurai Yuto felt that the child's state seemed silly no matter how he looked at it.He simply gave Komaji all the leftover curry——Komaji only knew about it when he met foreigners in the "Meeting the World Exhibition" when he came over from the West a long time later, Yuto Sakurai The kind of food that is almost solid is not curry at all.

But at this moment, Komaji felt even more depressed while eating.He hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "Are you going to say goodbye to me?"

Sakurai Yuto nodded honestly.

Komaji lowered his head little by little, and he suddenly asked, "Is it because you hate me?"

Komaji raised his hand, on his wrist, the sinner's tattoo was extremely conspicuous.It was something that ordinary children would not have. His past misery and depravity were all hidden in these tattoos.

Sakurai Yuto didn't seem to understand what he meant, he stared at Komaji's hand for a long time, and finally put the handkerchief in Komaji's hand tentatively: "Do you want this with your hands? You can't directly?"

He seemed completely unaware of how ugly the tattoo was.

Komaji grabbed the handkerchief, he didn't have the courage to show the tattoo in front of Sakurai Yuto again.For the first time, he felt that it would be great if he didn't have such a thing in his hand—maybe he would have the courage to ask Yuto what the other party's real thoughts are.

But life never gave him a second choice.At that time, he wanted to keep himself and his father alive. He had no choice but to sink into the mud.

But now, even a person like him can get a chance to climb up from the mud.Hope hung like a spider's silk before him.

He used to not be able to expect to have the opportunity to choose, but now he has this opportunity.

However, can someone like him expect to have "choice"?

Komaji thought, he really was hated.

By the time Komaji returned with all his luggage, it was already late.Father has received treatment for a while, and he is now able to walk freely, so there is no need to wait for Komaji to pick him up.

When he came back, his father unpacked his bag for him.Although my father is already able to walk freely, there is still a slight gap between being able to work like a normal person.It's fine if it's a brother, but as a father, he has to rely on his children's efforts to support himself.

Father was a little embarrassed.

Probably because he had been thinking about the change in Yuto Sakurai's attitude and suddenly said that he would drive him away. At this time, Komaji became very sensitive to the emotions of the people around him.He sensed his father's depression—but although Komaji could sense his father's depression, he couldn't tell why his father had such emotions.

If you can't ask Yuuto, you can easily say it to your closest relatives.

Komaji put down the ingredients he brought back, and he fished up his cuffs a little bit. He asked his father, "Do you also feel ashamed of me like this?"

His father was silent for a long time, and finally said: "No, what I hate is not you, but myself. According to common sense, being a parent and raising children is a responsibility that must be borne, but I have been reduced to relying on children I can only live by using improper means... I am so despicable."

Komaji sat next to him, although Sakurai Yuto drove him away, but Yuto also prepared luggage for him.The shiitake mushrooms were the most in the package, and Komaji suspected that he had collected all the shiitake mushrooms in the carriage and asked him to take them back.

Komaji heard what his father said, and said: "But I don't think you are despicable. You are my relatives, and I will always love you."

Father looked at Komaji, and he noticed the things that Komaji brought back, so he said, "Did the master ask you to bring it back?"

Komaji nodded.

Relieved to hear that it wasn't theft, his father turned to asking Komaji what happened to him during the day.The father's tone was very serious. He said, "Did you do your best to clean for others during the day?"

Speaking of this, Komaji lost his energy.

He talked about the day's affairs.As the age grows, the knowledge will become more and more.All kinds of people I saw in poverty are imprinted in my heart.Father didn't think Sakurai Yuto was the kind of mean and difficult person like other rich people.

Komaji said, "He's going to drive me away all of a sudden. Did I do something wrong?"

His father reminded him: "But he has prepared such a bag for you. His kind of person who can't even clean it himself has prepared so many things for you. the behavior of."

Komaji looked up.

My father continued: "Have you heard of it? Not all fish caught in the sea are edible. Some fish are poisonous. After being eaten, they will kill people."

Komaji had heard of such a fish.

When he was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, he also ran to the seaside to look for edible seafood.Occasionally he can also see such poisonous fish.

His father asked Komaji, "Komaji, why do you think those fish are so poisonous?"

In the air, there was only the crackling sound of burning firewood.Komaji squatted aside, he had never thought about this question, and he didn't understand how this topic was related to his question, but he felt that if he could answer this question, all his confusion would be solved. Then untie.

Komaji asked his father tentatively, "Is it for hunting other fish?"

Father shook his head: "Not really."

Komaji thought for a long time, and he said again: "Is that kind of toxicity to help them become the overlord of the sea?"

Father looked at Komaji.

Even Komaji himself didn't know what to say.

He looked at his hands, he was also like a fish in the sea, he was born with great strength, and it was difficult for even adults to match this powerful force.When he grows up, his power will become stronger until no one can beat him.

Some fishes that excel among fish are also born with strength like him.

But what is this power used for?

My father said: "Just like humans who eat poisonous fish will be poisoned to death, Komaji, the poison in those fish is born to protect itself and the group."

After saying this, he turned sideways and went to sleep.

Komaji looked at his hands, and he asked himself: Am I the same?

Komaji thought of Sakurai Yuto again, and he asked himself: Is it the same for Mr. Yuto?

If it is a person as powerful as Mr. Yuto, he will definitely help others just like helping himself.But Komaji didn't see anyone else beside him, the time train was cold, and there was no one who could even talk.

Komaji thought, Mr. Yuto's words and deeds are like the toxins of poisonous fish.It's just that this toxin is not fatal, and the only person who can hurt it is Mr. Yuto himself.Yuuto keeps rejecting the approach of others, and can't help but lend a helping hand to others.

Komaji finally understood.

Sakurai Yuto has been living a life away from other people, maybe there is only one reason.

He is afraid.

—Maybe one day, I might hurt someone else.

Komaji's poison is used to protect himself and his father, and he rejects others as if he is afraid of being hurt.Yuuto's poison is used to protect others.

Komaji thought, if he is strong enough, if he is strong enough to protect everyone, then when that day comes, will Yuuto not have to worry about this anymore?
