In the afternoon, Wu Se decided to go out for a walk.

It was not an option to stay at home all the time. He and his mother had no relatives, and no one would come to care about his life or death.What's more, the room was full of musty smells, there was no edible food in the kitchen, and most of the clothes in the closet didn't fit. A normal person couldn't live in it.

Because of her mother's death, Wu Se has not been exposed to the outside world for a long time.

His mother worked in the singing and dancing town in the town before her death. It was not a glamorous occupation, and naturally she didn't have any friends.In addition, after he was born, his mother deliberately did not want her son with facial defects to be exposed to the outside world. As a result, Wu Se's character instinctively rejected the outside world.

But now, after all, it is not the past.

In the last life, after awakening his power, he wandered around more like a wandering soul. This time, he is a normal human being. Although he does not have money and enough power yet, he will definitely work hard this time. Live better.

Thinking of this, Wu Se sorted out the little money and things left on her body, and walked out of the hut where she had lived for 16 years.

The sun outside was a bit dazzling at this time, and he yawned sleepily in a colorless way. He put on the hat on his black jumper to cover the birthmark on his face that was too conspicuous to others, and then walked slowly. walking forward.

He needs a job first and foremost.

Although the system once promised to give him the power he wanted, before capturing a stronger person and obtaining the power he wanted, he must first have the power to live.

There were no people along the way, only passing by a few old women holding sacrifices from time to time.

Wu Se, who didn't remember what day it was today, paused for a few steps, and was about to continue walking when an old woman in front of her, carrying a few peaches, suddenly stopped.

With a sound of "tearing", the bag in the old woman's hand was torn, and the round, pink peaches rolled all over the floor.

[——The second rule of the good year, never say no to the elderly. ——]

[——Sao Nian, hurry up and help the old lady pick up peaches~ There will be a generous reward~]

The metallic sound of the system sounded in the ears again in time.

Wu Se was startled when he heard the words, seeing the elderly man holding a parasol bending over to pick up the peaches on the ground with great difficulty under the scorching sun, he felt a little awkward in his heart, and subconsciously muttered,

"Why should I go to... these trivial, meaningless little things..."

【You are always complaining about these small things~ So with your current ability, what can you do, Sao Nian~】

When the system heard this, he smacked his lips, without giving him any face, and mercilessly poked the most embarrassing sore spot in Wu Se's eyes.

"You! I just don't want to help that old woman! What's wrong! I just don't want to help!"

Hearing this, the distraught Wu Se blushed.But before he finished his angry words, not far away, a handsome boy with light brown hair and a fat beckoning cat appeared beside the old woman.

……

"um. Thank you……"

The old woman bent over to pick up the peaches was startled when she saw the boy with light brown hair squatting up to help, but after being surprised, she soon burst into a warm smile.

"It's okay, it's just a little effort."

The light brown-haired boy smiled slightly, his white half-sleeve shirt was spotless, and his delicate face looked gentle and easy-going, with a good temper.

"If it's not broken, you can take this and eat it."

As if infected by the boy's smile, the old lady stretched out her palm and handed a peach in front of the boy.

"No, take it."

The light brown-haired boy returned a shallow, kind smile.

Even an obvious refusal doesn't leave one tinged with displeasure.

"it does not matter."

The old woman smiled softer.

It is always difficult to refuse the kindness of the old man, and it is difficult for the young man to refuse.

Taking it with both hands politely, the boy sincerely thanked,

"Then thank you."

……

【Tsk tsk tsk, that's the real good year~】

The system let out a burst of exclamation, and did not forget to say something deliberately to stimulate the sulking Wu Se Dao,

[Sao Nian, are you looking for a job~ The son of the mother-in-law Huazi is the richest businessman in the town~ If you offered to help her just now, you can get a good job from her... But... Alas~]

Seeing the scene where the young man who was about his age kindly picked up all the peaches for the old woman, and then the old woman smiled gratefully and gratifiedly, I felt a little unspeakably uncomfortable in my heart. Said, even the face of grievance and discomfort sank in an instant.

"……yes……"

He lowered his head without saying a word, Wushi didn't talk to the system anymore, and just walked straight forward.

【Hey~ why don't you talk~】

"Anyway, that's the kind of person I am... I'm so bad... You'd better not talk to me..."

Colorless sneered lowly, and the negative emotions that had calmed down surged up again.

He just can't smile like the boy with the light brown hair...he just doesn't have the guts to help...

His appearance...his character...there is nothing likable about him...

So, no one cares about him?

"Huh? This brat..."

A hoarse, low voice, like a middle-aged man's voice suddenly sounded, Wu Se, who was so focused on moving forward, hadn't even had time to raise his head when the top of his head was paused by a heavy knock.

"Ah! Is it really the child born to Wuzi?"

Feeling that his chin was forced to be lifted by the handle of a bamboo fan, his colorless and stiff face met the eyes of the tall, thin old woman in traditional kimono and heavy makeup.

"Stupid boy, do you remember who I am?"

Holding a copper pipe in one hand, and holding a small basket covered with a white cloth in the other, the old woman took a puff of smoke, drooping her eyelids painted with heavy eyeshadow, and looked up and down with scrutinizing eyes. Feeling colorless at a loss, he opened his mouth and asked,

"Today is the day for offering sacrifices to ancestors and gods. It's been so long since you and your dead mother have seen each other, why don't you go to the grave to worship her?"

"Who are you...do you know my mother?"

Wu Se's eyes widened in astonishment, and he really didn't understand where the weird old woman in front of him came from.

If I remember correctly, except for those creditors who are chasing debts, few people will remember the name of his mother, an ordinary Kabukicho dancer, let alone know that she has such an old child...

[——The third rule of the good show years, you must be polite to your elders——]

[——Sao Nian, hurry up and say hello to Mother-in-law Toshi, the Queen of Kabukicho, and salute, there will be a generous reward for completing the task~]

"Tengshi...mother-in-law?"

Subconsciously repeating these words in his mouth, he blinked colorlessly, looked at the old woman in front of him who might have a certain connection with his mother, hesitated for a moment, he still frowned and saluted,

"Hello, it's the first time we meet, please take care of me."
