Chapter 4 Luo Li and Akutagawa 4

Ryunosuke closed the mirror cabinet and said, "Let's go."

"Okay—" Nakajima Atsushi hurried to follow.

Akutagawa walked two blocks before breaking the invisibility spell, then took a taxi to the orphanage. When he arrived there, Nakajima Atsushi sat nervously on a chair, waiting for Akutagawa to finish talking to the dean and come out.

"I don't agree." The dean rejected Akutagawa's adoption proposal.

Akutagawa held the teacup but didn't drink it: "Why?"

"That child is a little special. We won't agree to him being adopted until he's well educated."

Akutagawa pinched the leaves of the potted plant next to him. Luo Li cast a spell, and the plant grew. He looked at the stunned dean and smiled softly: "Is it really that special?"

"Did you know he could turn into a white tiger?" The dean touched the leaves of the potted plant to confirm that they felt real.

White tiger? Not a dog nose?

I don't know, but Akutagawa won't say: "Yes, I know, we are the same kind, so I decided to adopt him."

"...Are there many people like you?"

"Birds of a feather flock together, and those around us are naturally the same kind." The existence of people with superpowers is basically kept secret from ordinary people, and some ordinary people will spend their entire lives thinking that people with superpowers are just a story.

The dean sighed and said, "Take him away."

After spending half a day completing the adoption procedures, seeing that it was almost noon, Akutagawa asked Nakajima Atsushi, "What do you want to eat?"

"Can I have chazuke?" Nakajima Atsushi asked eagerly.

"Okay." Akutagawa did not ask Nakajima Atsushi to change his inferiority complex immediately, nor did he force him to get close to them right away.

"After dinner, let's go and see the house. Do you have any preferences?"

Akutagawa made an appointment with the agent to go see the house together.

"No, is it because of me that we have to move houses..." Nakajima Atsushi felt even more guilty. His arrival seemed to have caused a lot of trouble to the family.

Akutagawa still didn't understand why Luo Li treated Nakajima Atsushi differently: "Eat your food, don't think too much."

Nakajima Atsushi had something on his mind and couldn't eat anymore after three bowls.

Little did she know that Luo Li was shocked: "He's nine years old, and he eats so much? If we stack the bowls vertically, they'd be taller than him!"

"It's normal for a white tiger to eat more since he has the ability to transform into a beast." Akutagawa was not that shocked. For a white tiger, eating three bowls of rice was nothing.

After dinner, we went to look at houses and finally chose a two-story building with a kitchen, two bathrooms, a attic, and four rooms. It was just right for Gin and Rin to have one room, Katsumi and Yuji to have one room, Shinya and Nakajima Atsushi to have one room, and Ryunosuke and Luo Li to have one room. The attic could be used as a small study.

"The second semester is already halfway over. After that, you can take tutoring classes at home and then go to the fourth grade with Rin next year. Or do you want to work harder and go to the fifth grade with Rin and the others?" Akutagawa asked Nakajima Atsushi.

If Akutagawa didn't have superpowers, he would have contacted Nakajima Atsushi to go to fifth grade so that he and Rin and the others could take care of each other, but since Nakajima Atsushi had powerful superpowers, there was no requirement for that.

"Fifth grade." Although he was not familiar with them yet, Nakajima Atsushi wanted to be with them.

"Okay." Akutagawa agreed: "Let's go to the supermarket and buy you some clothes and toiletries."

"We also need to buy some good food to celebrate the addition of a new companion!" Luo Li reminded.

Akutagawa said nothing, but just agreed.

Luo Li puffed up her cheeks: "Ryunosuke——"

Akutagawa sighed: "To celebrate your joining, buy some more delicious food."

Nakajima Atsushi's eyes lit up: "Okay."

It turns out that he was not excluded.
