Today is Friday, and after the power-on with Ranpo ended, Shimeng thought a lot... She had imagined solving the difficulties of the slums, but she didn't expect to encounter so many troubles.

Slums... what kind of place is this?Searching through the 14 years in my memory, it seems that I can't tell clearly.In fact, Shimeng is often difficult to bring into Uzuki, she thinks she is Shimeng, maybe at most it is Uzuki Shimeng.

On the way to the curry shop, she was also thinking about the "language" she wanted to speak in disorder, what kind of language...

It wasn't until the delicious food was placed in front of his eyes that Shi Meng finally withdrew his mixed thoughts, and before taking the spoon——

A figure with the smell of blood and dust sat down in front of her.

Oda Sakunosuke was still dressed in the same casual way three years ago, with an old sand-colored windbreaker, unshaven mustache, and copper-colored hair.

For the first time, he didn't sit in the old seat by the stage, but sat in front of a girl who could be called a stranger, and then greeted him very calmly.

"Miss Uzuki, long time no see."

Shi Meng squeezed the spoon, the desire to win and lose appeared again, and he greeted more calmly than him: "Mr. Oda, long time no see."

So Oda stopped talking, and the small dining table was silent for a while, as if the autumn wind swept the fallen leaves.

Shi Meng: ...

She really rarely met someone like Oda Sakunosuke.

Oda didn't feel embarrassed. He is a man who is not surprised by many things, and can find suitable reasons for many things. He glanced at the girl who was silently eating spicy curry, and guessed that she was probably hungry, so he was ready to wait for her Start a new topic after eating.

Before the new topic started, Boss Shido broke the silence. He came over with the spicy curry that Oda usually ordered, and said with a big smile: "You two can be regarded as meeting each other. If we don't meet again, I want to go The shrine pays homage to you."

The two also greeted Boss Shido, who put down the dishes and left quickly, leaving room for these two—people who might know each other.

Shi Mengguan eats silently by herself. The reason why she often comes here is that Oda Sakunosuke only accounts for a small part. Of course, she doesn't have any special friendship with Oda. Naturally, she comes to Treasure Restaurant to eat .

What's more, she fixed the time, but the other party has no intention of meeting, which makes Shimeng a little embarrassed occasionally, but she is even more reluctant to change the time. Doesn't it mean that she admits that she is passionate?

So she was very surprised, why in the information given by Brother Guanyi, Mr. Oda three years ago helped deal with the clues of the Akanishi cadre?

This was the most tangled thing for her, so she simply asked it out.

Oda Sakunosuke nodded slightly: "I helped to deal with it."

Then he stopped talking, Oda felt that there was no need to explain more, and ate in silence. In fact, he helped her deal with it three years ago... He couldn't think of a more specific reason, probably because he rarely met spicy food The second is that the three siblings do not look very old, and the younger sister is a child; the third is that the two of them may have the willingness to make friends?

But she has changed so much... When Oda first walked in, he couldn't believe that this was the same person. Although the girl from three years ago was good-looking, she was much thinner and weaker than her peers.

And if Oda wants to describe her now, he probably needs to carefully consider the words to describe her height, appearance and facial features, but the word that can be blurted out must be "beautiful".

In the following time, the two finished eating without any communication, facing the CD, looking at each other in blank dismay.

Shimeng doesn't really dislike this atmosphere, maybe he was a little embarrassed before, but Mr. Oda is really a very peculiar person, his temperament can make people calm down with him.

So she was thinking, what to say next?

Before she thought about it, Oda Sakunosuke said: "Miss Utsuki, is the author April?"

Shi Meng nodded, it was not surprising that he could guess, so he followed the topic and said, "In fact, it was the night I parted from Mr. Oda that I started to have the idea of ​​becoming an author... At first, I just wanted to earn I didn’t expect to be welcomed by so many people for a little money.”

She recalled the shock and surprise when she found out that the literary world was barren. Yes, she was very pleasantly surprised because she found the fastest way to get money, and also the fastest way to accumulate herself.So she chose the most routine and most profitable subject, but even if the starting point was not very good, but later...

Shi Meng recalled the sense of accomplishment every time he finished writing a novel, the touch and joy he felt every time he received a letter from a reader, and found time to immerse himself in conceiving in the busiest work...

So, she likes to write novels.

"That's right." Oda paused and said, "I really like several of your novels."

"Mr. Oda, don't use honorifics to address me." She felt embarrassed.

He nodded and repeated again: "I like all your novels very much."

Shimeng couldn't help laughing, at this time she was very much like the girl Oda knew three years ago, there was always something indescribable... Oda Sakunosuke tried hard to think of adjectives, innocent?Maybe romance would be more appropriate.

She is frank and natural, without any affectation, and her joy is not pretentious at all. The pureness in her eyebrows and eyes is very contagious, so she makes others smile along with her.

The red-haired man also had a smile on his face, Shi Meng looked at him, couldn't help but be puzzled by the previous avoidance, and asked tentatively: "So Mr. Oda is busy with the work of the Mafia?"

"Actually not." Oda Sakunosuke was very honest, "Because there was a question before and I didn't think about it, so I hesitated."

"what is it then?"

But he showed the first smile of this conversation: "Now I have found the answer, it should be said, I am looking for that answer."

It has to be said that Shi Meng was aroused by him, and this question was also on her face.

Oda was thinking about how to explain it, and thought about concluding with a conclusion: "I adopted a child."

But strangely, the girl opposite him seemed to understand, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"I also adopted a few children, three of them."

"No, it's four." She thought for a while, and counted Fu Heisher.

"No, it's seven." The head of the family made the calculations and felt that they were all brought by him.

Oda looked at the girl's sudden smile on the opposite side, but didn't realize that his smile was as warm as hers: "That's really a big family!"

Shi Meng nodded, and showed Oda the screen saver of her mobile phone.

——It was a photo taken in a kindergarten. In the photo, there were 7 people with warm smiles, and a man who was put on a photo with only one head. It looked a bit scary.

So after seeing the photo, he couldn't stop laughing.

Shi Meng also muttered to explain, because there is a busy person in the family who is always running around outside, it is too difficult to get together eight people to take a photo, and when you finally get together, you will often encounter some strange things. Things are often interrupted and forgotten.

However, as long as the family is together, there is always a chance to take a group photo together.

Oda also expressed his thoughts during this period, and then sought advice from experienced fellows: "I met this kid in the slums. He is a good boy, but he is very aggressive and has murderous intentions towards many people. .”

This made Shi Meng subconsciously hallucinate Yumeno Kusaku, worried: "Then we have to take it seriously, this kind of aggressive child can't just use gentle means."

"What should I do better?"

"Mr. Oda, first you have to prove to him that you are better than him, and you must point out what is wrong. Secondly, you have to give him a sense of security, make him trust you, and be willing to rely on you. Then, you teach him some principles... ..."

The two of them chatted about their parenting experience for a long time, Shimeng had a sincere attitude, and Oda Sakunosuke accepted all of them with a humble face.

When they left, near the evening, both of them were satisfied.

……

After arriving home, Shi Meng recalled the child who was born in the slums they were talking about just now, and the two of them even named the nameless child - "Oda Yuki".

During the conversation, they also talked about the chaos in the slums. This child was "forcibly" adopted by Oda when the slums were attacked a few days ago.

Yes, Shimeng summed up Mr. Oda's approach, which is "coercion", forcibly confiscating Oda's own wallet that was stolen by him, and forcing the child to be adopted by him.

This word makes her feel very interesting, maybe...

She leaned against the sofa in the living room, and looked up to see Gin coming out of Ryunosuke's room with a "medical kit".

Ok?

"Xiaoyin, what happened?" She got up and asked, didn't Ryunosuke say that the matter was resolved smoothly?

Akutagawa Yin just promised his brother not to tell Sister Shimeng 2 minutes ago, but he resolutely betrayed him after she questioned him.

"My brother got into a fight today."

Shi Meng had a serious face: "Did you win?"

Silver is equally serious: "Win."

The eldest sister nodded in satisfaction, and then asked: "How is the other party's injury? Has he been admitted to the hospital? What did the parents say?"

Akutagawa Silver put the medical kit back into the original cabinet and closed the cabinet door: "It should not be with the classmates in school. My brother said that I met a strange reader today who always asks some inexplicable questions."

"So it's Du Wei from Ryunosuke!" Shi Meng suddenly realized, for some reason, Mr. Yanagawa seems to have a lot of Du Wei fans compared to himself, the few in the Yokohama newspaper, the former Attil should also be counted Half a day, today I met another book fan who forced Ryunosuke to beat someone.

Teacher Siyue thought with a heavy face, sure enough, it is necessary to be the author of "Death by Light".

Shimeng sighed, and knocked on Akutagawa's door "tuk-tuk-tuk", and Ryunosuke Akutagawa inside quickly put on his coat to cover the bandages on his body.

Then he opened the door solemnly.

Seeing the scratches on his face, the girl outside the door pretended to be surprised: "Ryunosuke, why is your face hurt?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke deliberated in his heart, choosing an excuse.

She asked: "Did he fall into the bushes? Or hit the glass door? Did he catch the football with his face?"

Hearing these three excuses to test someone's IQ, the boy showed helplessness on his face, and said honestly: "I had some physical conflicts with people today because of verbal disputes."

Shi Meng freely pulled away the creations on the ground—her works, still wondering why she didn't find "Green Light"?

Hearing his answer, I dragged a chair and sat down, thinking that as expected of Mr. Yanagawa, he was so educated in fighting, but in order to protect his self-esteem, I decided not to ask in detail.

They chatted casually, and Ryunosuke handed her the notebook.

In fact, many people in the deep space know about the foul language in the slums and the recent rape. Ayatsuji pedestrians and Arthur Rimbaud advocated that they should solve it, and Fuheshier was also kept from it—because he would definitely fight small report.

Therefore, Fu Heisher was deceived by several people to do a lot of work, but the curse spirits that had been cleaned up recently began to reappear frequently. When the subspace could not be closed, the Nanami-kun from Tokyo came and went out a few times The mission was late, and the strongest curse master quickly realized what happened here.

In the morning, several people had a fight, and Fuheshier lost to the transcendent who deliberately took this opportunity to deal with him, but he refused to hide it, saying that he would tell when he went back.

Then, in the long list of analysis by Ayatsuji Xingren's poisonous tongue, he promised to hide it for a day, and then he was beaten. He continued to listen to the ridicule analysis. He said that you should kill me, I will only hide it for a day...

In fact, tomorrow, Shimeng will know all this.

Everyone had the same idea, they were afraid that she would be sad, and they didn't want her to see the disappointing result.

But Akutagawa Ryunosuke may be a little different, he thinks that Shimeng can give a different method.

"Shimeng, this was obtained during a recent visit."

"Huh?" She took it and flipped through it.

Shimeng's reading speed has always been very fast, but she read the contents of the notebook very slowly and seriously. The things written by Ryunosuke are very detailed and objective. Some swear words and vulgar words towards her, greedy and unreasonable requirements;

Some deplorable lives, the lives of some low-level people...

After reading it, she didn't have any obvious emotions on her face.

Akutagawa watched the girl's calm expression, and couldn't help calling her name: "Shimeng..."

Then at last her voice was heard.

"Ugh!"

Shi Meng sighed heavily, and put the notebook on his lap.

"Ryunosuke, it's been almost five months since we moved back to Yokohama. After the dream conference, everyone gave such a good plan. I thought it was a very easy problem; after solving the government and Tomoda Ren, I thought to myself that I should have dealt with the most troublesome things, but during this time, I began to doubt my decision-making."

Akutagawa listened to her complaints in silence, he knew that he only needed to be a listener at this time.

"Ryunosuke, actually... I should be regarded as a child who grew up in a slum, but maybe I've been away for too long, and I can't remember what kind of place it is." When she said this, she was a little fuzzy, and he couldn't Read her expression.

"But we all hate the slums. We have nothing, no money, no food, no clothes in the cold winter, and I don't even eat sugar in my memory... The people there are even more hateful. The lower the people, the more they will use evil to bully Weak, he vents his anger and pain in the process of bullying those who are weaker than him, and squeezes those who are lower than him to obtain some trivial selfish desires. They have no culture, no skills, and many people even have no morals and conscience. This It is an abyss that goes back and forth, and people can only struggle in this vicious circle and never climb out."

She slowly said that this may be the mixed thoughts after talking with Luanbu, but now, she is trying to sort it out.

"I think not only me, but many of us should have seen this problem, because it has always been there, and the slums have such a big and conspicuous place, like a big bowl sunken on the flat land, like Leibo Street, I really hate it, Leibo Street must be full of mud and stagnant water when it rains."

She raised her tone, and even gritted her teeth a little bit in her expression.

"But...but we can't just see it, just stare at it and do nothing. Those of us who crawled out of the mud and stagnant water can't be indifferent or mocking to those who are still trapped in the abyss. Pointing fingers... I am a capable person now, I have no way to change the world, so I can only work hard to change the places I am familiar with.

I know they are really despicable people, forgive me I can only use this word to describe it, because I know that even if I try my best to change all this, what I get will not be praise or gratitude, but greed and gratitude. Shameless. "

She spoke faster and faster, and when she finished the last word, she took a deep breath.

"But I see the problem, yes, I see it."

She looked at the person in front of her, and slowly said the last sentence: "So I will solve it, Ryunosuke."

"I have to fix it."

The boy opposite her has been listening quietly. When she was with her, Akutagawa Ryunosuke was always the one who listened, and was often teased by her, or complained that he would not pick up and complain.

He also tried to catch up and complain, but unfortunately the results were not great, but occasionally he would make her laugh out loud for unknown reasons.

But Akutagawa does not intend to change, perhaps because of his temperament of the listener, Shimeng will tell him many things, her emotions, her thoughts, she thinks many strange, depressed, disgusting things that should not exist in the world matter.

That's why Akutagawa Ryunosuke often feels that Tokimen is a person who shouldn't appear in this world, a person in this desperate and chaotic era.

However, Akutagawa also felt that it was such an era that made Shimeng attract the attention of countless people as soon as he appeared.

Akutagawa has always been aware of the difference between her and many people, he finally understands today, maybe it's that word——

is "change".

When countless people are chasing the meaning of life, getting used to the indifference and ego, and are about to be assimilated by this world, a person appeared and said that she wanted to change the place where I was born, and called on everyone's strength to be down-to-earth and give effective action.

Like after all these years and so many people rushing past the slums, no one ever said, because I saw it, I'm going to fix it.

and so……

"Shimeng, do whatever you want, you are more qualified than anyone else in this world." He said these words forcefully, as if uttering an oath.

"All of us will help you."

Akutagawa thought of those people he met in the slums during this period, many people he met, not just people from deep space.

Everyone is trying their best to solve this problem, and everyone...is brought together because of her.

They too will carry out her will, follow her will.

She nodded deeply.
