I made my debut from the C position in Yokohama

Most of the children in the orphanage are young, and they are basically concentrated in the age group of seven or eight. There are very few children as old as that misfit boy—it should be said that there are almost none. He seems out of place in a group of children.

Yuji Berry Valley comforted the children around him, and walked towards the boy who was leaning against the wall—it was strange that the children who had been talking sweetly around him were hesitant to come over at this time, and looked at the single person with hesitation teenager.

Is this being bullied?

"It's the first time we met, I'm a volunteer here." Berry Valley Yuji lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the boy's white hair, "My name is Berry Valley Yuji, how about you?"

The boy looked down at the toes of Berry Valley Yuji. He was wearing a school uniform because he participated in the activities of Rikkai University. It was a combination of black Western-style uniform and black uniform shoes, and was carefully polished and polished.He curled up his feet in the old cloth shoes.

"...Atsushi," the young man replied softly, "My name is Atsushi Nakajima."

He raised his eyes and looked at Yuji Berry Valley, the transparent amber contained a bit of dreamy purple, which was extremely beautiful in the sun.

"Then Dun-kun," Berry Gu Yuji is well versed in the way of dealing with children, the first step to close the relationship is to call the close name, "Can you show me this orphanage?" He said, showing trouble "All my classmates went to help, but I don't know where they are. If possible, I would like to help too."

"No, no problem," Atsushi Nakajima agreed quickly, he looked a bit shy, "Come with me, do you want to go to the kitchen or where...?"

Atsushi Nakajima said while leading Yuji Berry Valley into the building inside the orphanage.There is a long corridor on the first floor, which is where the dining room and kitchen are located. At the end is a locked wooden door, but there is nothing marked on it.

Berry Valley Yuji asked: "Where is that place?"

Atsushi Nakajima's body trembled for a moment under such a question, and even his tone trembled a little. After trying to restrain himself, he could calm down his tone: "That's...the confinement room."

"...Children who have made mistakes will be locked up in the confinement room by the headmaster to reflect."

It appeared that the child was a regular visitor to the brig.Yuji Berry Valley read this from Atsushi Nakajima's reaction - not only that, this so-called confinement room is probably not just a simple confinement.

The 14-year-old Atsushi Nakajima is shorter than Yuji Berry Valley, and his body is extremely thin, which is the thin body caused by long-term malnutrition.While walking around, the gray hem of the clothes revealed a bit of covered skin, not much exposed, but Berry Valley Yuji could clearly see the scars.

It was a reddish scar, which looked new and had only been on his body not long ago.Arms, calves, and even the back, all have such scars.

It doesn't look like the marks left by being bullied. Those children look at Atsushi Nakajima with hesitation in their eyes, but they don't have the disgust when they were bullied. Besides, it is impossible for a child to bully a boy like Atsushi Nakajima.

That should be the trace left by the abuse in the confinement room.

Berry Valley Yuji made a conclusion in his heart, he pretended not to know, just smiled and chatted with Nakajima Atsushi peacefully, and was called to help by his classmates when he walked into the kitchen.

"Can you help Berry Valley?" The girl in the same class asked him shyly in a low voice, "Our class may not have enough people..."

"No problem," Berry Valley Yuji took the apron handed over by the girl, "I'll help."

Yuji Berry Valley took off his uniform jacket and hung it on the hanger, and the white shirt was neatly tied into the seam of his trousers, pinching out a very thin waistline.He turned his hands back and tied the tie of the apron into a bow from behind. The light pink apron made him look very homely.

"Is there anything you want to eat?" Berry Gu Yuji asked with a smile, and the sun slanted in from the window, dyeing the side of the boy's face and eyelashes brilliant golden.

Seiichi Yukimura was standing beside Yuji Berry Valley. He was helping to make curry, and he had just cut potatoes and onions into neat sizes.He seemed a little surprised when he heard the words: "So Berry Valley-kun knows how to cook?"

The spoon used to hold the rice was twirling in the hands of Yuji Berry Valley, "Because of the environment I grew up in, I'm actually pretty good at cooking."

This is not a human design, Yuji Berry Valley is indeed good at cooking.He started to live independently at a very young age. His parents were not at home all year round, and no one was cooking, so he had to learn to cook by himself.Over the years, I don't say how good it is, but at least practice makes perfect, and it tastes good.

Yukimura Seiichi was stunned for a moment, and soon remembered the fact that both of Berry Valley Yuji's parents had died.He was silent for a while, and then said softly: "...Sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned this matter."

"It's okay, I don't care anymore." Yuji Berry Valley didn't care, he patted Yukimura Seiichi's shoulder reassuringly, "My parents have passed away for a long time, no matter how sad they are, it has faded away, and my parents probably don't want to Just keep me in my sorrow."

——This is a lie.Yuji Berry Valley has a weak relationship with his parents. If his parents really loved him, they wouldn't come home only once in a few years. Since he was a child, he was taken care of by nannies who rotated every few months.

"What would Dun-kun want to eat?" Yuji Berry Valley asked again.

Atsushi Nakajima was still immersed in the shock of the death of Yuji Berry Valley's parents, and he subtly felt some emotional commonality with Yuji Berry Valley because of this incident.

When Yuji Berry Valley asked again, Atsushi Nakajima realized.He was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a while before whispering, "Ochazuke...is that okay?"

"Of course it's okay." Yuji Berry Valley was a little surprised by Atsushi Nakajima's simple request. Ochazuke can almost be regarded as the easiest food to make - it is a simple level that even Dazai Osamu will not miss.

Speaking of which, Osamu Dazai's talent in cooking doesn't know whether he is high or low... Although he cooks dark dishes, the taste of Vigorous Stewed Chicken is actually quite good.As for the hard tofu block... that thing is harder than a baguette, and it is a murder weapon at all.

Berry Valley Yuji's thoughts drifted away unconsciously, and he realized that he thought of Dazai Osamu inexplicably, and quickly put back his drifting thoughts.

Ochazuke is very simple. Soak the rice together with boiled tea, sprinkle some seasonings to adjust the taste, and finally sprinkle seaweed slices and diced meat evenly on the rice. It takes no more than 3 minutes to make Ochazuke for one night.

Atsushi Nakajima cherished the bowl of chazuke as if he was holding some peerless delicacy.The white-haired boy had nothing to eat when he ate, he devoured the whole bowl, Yuji Berry Valley naturally took the bowl and licked it up.

"Ochazuke is delicious," Atsushi Nakajima held the edge of the bowl, vigorously making the knuckles turn a little bluish white, he looked at Yuji Berry Valley seriously, and thanked him, "Thank you."

"I'm a volunteer." Yuji Berry Valley laughed, "Isn't it a matter of course for volunteers to take care of you? Don't say thank you to me."

Atsushi Nakajima said "thank you" again, "goodwill...is a very precious thing."

He looked thin, but Atsushi Nakajima's appetite was unexpectedly good-because this was the dinner for all the children in the orphanage, Atsushi Nakajima didn't eat much, but even so he ate three bowls of ochazuke.

When Berry Valley Yuji was helping in the kitchen, Nakajima Atsushi stood quietly watching Berry Valley Yuji, and occasionally helped him pass bowls and seasonings.Atsushi Nakajima couldn't describe this feeling, he just subconsciously followed the most dazzling person in the crowd.

After the kitchen was done, Yuji Berry Valley came out of the kitchen.

"Does it hurt?" Yuji Berry and Atsushi Nakajima walked side by side through the long corridor. The corridor was dark and dark without lights, "I mean your wound."

The distance between Atsushi Nakajima and Atsushi Nakajima was vaguely narrowed because of tea and rice, and Yuji Berry Valley thought about it and asked him.

"...I'm used to it." Atsushi Nakajima hesitated between the pain and the pain, but finally said that he was used to it.

Because I am used to it, I don't think the pain is unbearable.

"I like the candy very much, let's try it." Yuji Berry Valley did not force Atsushi Nakajima to admit the pain, he changed the subject, and put the lemon-flavored hard candy in Atsushi Nakajima like sharing a treasure in the palm of your hand.

Due to work reasons, Yuji Berry Valley's three meals and working hours are not stable, and occasionally hypoglycemia occurs, so he carries sugar with him.

The candy is translucent gold like the pupil color of Berry Valley Yuji, Nakajima Atsushi looked at the candy, and felt that it was looking at Berry Valley Yuji's eyes in a trance.

Yuji Berry Valley raised his hand to touch Atsushi Nakajima's hair, the palm of his hand was as soft as animal fur.He didn't say anything, and walked through the corridor first, the sun fell on his shoulders, and his whole body was bathed in golden sunlight.

Atsushi Nakajima was in a trance for a moment. He slowly gathered his five fingers, clenched the candy in his palm, and walked into the sunlight stepping on the shadow.

******

The volunteer activities ended after dinner, and Yuji Berry and his classmates took the bus to leave. As soon as he got off the bus, he was picked up by Yin Akutagawa and Gide in a nanny car.

Yuji Berry Valley didn't pay too much attention to the orphanage. He just went to participate in volunteer activities, and it was impossible to rush to the head of the orphanage to question whether the other party was abusing children.Today's ochazuke and sweets are all he can give to Atsushi Nakajima as a temporary volunteer.

I hope that boy can become stronger by himself—and then walk out of the dark predicament.

Yuji Berry Valley's next job is a variety show, which is scheduled three days after the end of the volunteer activity, which is a weekend.

Just like accepting endorsements and acting, Kitajima Shunichi is also very selective in this regard.The first interview, which is known for its sarcastic and spicy questions, was rejected. It is also impossible to hype programs that like to have male and female guests intentionally have physical contact. Kitajima Jun will only choose those programs that are national, interesting and not demonic. On Gu Yusi.

This show is somewhat similar to the previous show that Okura Yeko appeared on, but Yuji Berry Valley has more than one person to strike up a conversation with - he has to strike up many conversations.

The theme given by the program group is "When idols borrow money from passers-by, how much can they borrow by virtue of their charm?"

Of course, this borrowed money is not a real loan, it will be returned to passers-by after the loan is completed. What the audience cares most about is the reaction of passers-by.

The recording started, Yuji Berry Valley was standing on the busy street, his eyes turned to the intersection, and he decided to ask the next passerby who turned this intersection to borrow money.

The next person to come out of the intersection was more than one person, to be precise, a group of people.

Grouped in the center was a white-haired girl in a dress with beautiful ruby ​​eyes.She followed closely beside the man who appeared to be the leader.

The man in the lead had extremely flamboyant red hair, with two strands of hair hanging down in disobedience in front of his forehead, with one hand in his trouser pocket loosely, with "I'm black" written on his left face and "not to be messed with" written on his right face.

Berry Valley Yuji thought to himself, is he going to encounter Waterloo for the first time borrowing money?
