Totsutsu Tadara couldn't stay for too long. After he could really make a proper bed, he prepared to say goodbye to Mr. Miyagi.
Old man Miyagi insisted on going to see them off, but was persuaded by Hinata Hajime and the others to leave.
Because they won't leave immediately, they will go to Hokkaido to buy special products to bring back as gifts.
Walking on the specialty street, Jutsu Tadara was looking at the things and bargaining at the same time, regardless of whether he would buy them or not. Hinata Hajime followed behind him, not very interested in the things around him.
Just like that, Hinata Sou helped him carry the specialties he had bought.
"Is it really okay to leave like this?" Jutsu Tadara asked Hinata Hajime as he walked forward.
"Almost done." Hinata Sou nodded, "We have to go back again later."
Jushu Duoduoliang turned to look at him and said, "Go back?"
"Take Cherry away."
"Eh?" Jutsu Tadara was a little surprised. "Doesn't Cherry's mother love her very much? You just said you wanted to take the child away. Could it be that the child you were talking about was Cherry? No, no, you can't compete with the child's mother."
"...But." Jutsu Tadara frowned slightly, "I think your idea is not quite right."
Hinata sighed, "If Mr. Miyagi really wants to let it go, then Cherry-chan can't stay there."
"Ah, you mean, Sakura's mother was also affected?" Jutsu Tadara understood, "If that's the case, it means that Sakura's mother doesn't actually like her, and she's only nice to Sakura because of the influence of that thing."
"Now I understand why you've been so tangled up."
Even though he lost his memory, Hinata Hajime has always been a gentle and kind person. Not only Juushu Tadara, but the entire Houmaira thinks so.
He is gentle and smart, and occasionally jokes with them, but no matter what, he has an inexplicable friendliness towards the people around him.
He treats everyone in a friendly way, and even strangers do not feel hostility from him.
So, when such a person found out that an old man could not accept the reality and therefore used his things, the first thing that came to his mind was that he could not bear to make an old man sad. He became even more entangled when he found out that a girl gained a gentle mother because of this.
If everything returns to normal, the little girl will be very sad.
"Although it sounds good, I still think that this kind of false family affection is meaningless to children," said Totara Jutsu.
"But children have the right to dream." Hinata Hajime said gently, "They are just children. How can they judge what is true and what is false? This is what we adults need to do."
"In their minds, whatever they see is real, and whatever they want is a dream."
Hinata Hajime murmured, "Now I'm going to be the bad uncle who breaks her dream."
"It does sound like a bad uncle." Jutsu Tadara patted his shoulder, "But Hinata, you seem to be only in your early 20s this year. Isn't it a bit too early to call yourself an uncle?"
"Then you're the bad brother."
"She will understand, because Sakura is a good child." Jutsu Tadara said with a smile: "Just like Anna, no matter how terrible things they encounter, their hearts are still beautiful."
"She's too lazy to blame you."
Hinata Hajime couldn't help but laugh, "Okay, I get it."
The future will definitely be better.
…
Old man Miyagi was sitting at the door with a cane, quietly enjoying the sunshine. Behind him was a pile of wood, ten bundles left by Duoduoliang.
After Jutsu Tatara left, old man Miyagi suddenly felt lonely.
If Jutsuka hadn't left, he would have tried every possible way to accomplish his goal here, even if it meant hurting his hands with wood. His passion was written in his eyes, with full of genuine love. Occasionally, Hinata Hajime would come, and at that time it seemed as if his home had become popular.
Thinking of this, the old man Gongcheng's eyes gradually dimmed.
But in fact he was the only one here, and the arrival of Totsuka Tadara and Hinata Hajime was just an accident.
He lived alone for more than ten years after his only son left. These years made him age very quickly. He could no longer pick up wood or work. He could only sit at the door every day and watch the sun rise and set.
At that moment, old man Gongcheng suddenly understood.
He just wanted some company, he just wanted his son to be as lively and energetic as Shishu and to be by his side every day.
But he is just a lonely old man after all.
"Grandpa."
Old Man Miyagi turned his head and looked to the side. Little Cherry was standing next to him holding a lollipop. After a moment, the little girl looked at him with big eyes, "Grandpa, aren't you happy?"
"No." The old man forced himself to smile, "Good girl, Sakura."
The little girl looked at him, and after a moment she handed the lollipop in her hand to the old man, "Grandpa, have some candy, it's very sweet."
"Candy tastes really good, but my mom won't let me eat too much, saying it will give me a toothache. But I've never eaten candy before."
Old Miyagi held her hand and asked, "Mom doesn't allow you to eat candy?"
Cherry blinked and lowered her head after a moment, "Mom doesn't buy candy."
Maybe Miyagi Tokina would never buy her candy.
For Miyagi Tokina, Sakura was the daughter of her ex-boyfriend. She wanted to marry him by getting pregnant, but she didn't expect that the child she gave birth to was a girl. In the end, Miyagi Tokina was completely abandoned, so she could only marry her current husband Miyagi Satoshi with her daughter.
That disgusting man who has no ability and beats his wife.
Cherry's birth was her original sin, she was waste that her mother could not use.
"Come, Grandpa will hug you." Old Man Miyagi held Little Cherry in his arms, "Little Cherry, do you want your mom to change back?"
When Miyagi Tokina brought Sakura here, old man Miyagi knew better than anyone what kind of person his daughter-in-law was. She came here, dropped the child, pointed at his face and demanded a divorce from Miyagi Tomo, and wanted to leave their daughter here, demanding a high amount of compensation as if she was selling her daughter.
Little Sakura's eyes were filled with fear, but she didn't dare to resist, which made her look lovable.
She is an unfit mother and her son is also an unfit son.
"I don't want to." Sakura said honestly, "But, but...if I really have to change back, it's not impossible."
"Why?"
"Because Grandpa is here." Sakura sat on the old man's lap, with innocence in her eyes, "Grandpa will protect me, right?"
"Mom has changed. She likes me now. That's good, but, but..." Cherry hesitated, "I'm still afraid."
"Grandpa won't hate me."
Children understand better than adults. Although they are immature, they can feel love better than anyone else. Cherry doesn't know why her mother became a good mother, but she knows that the grandfather she just met recently has always been a good grandfather.
Mr. Miyagi looked at Sakura, and after a moment he hugged her tightly.
"Okay." Old Man Miyagi said, "Little Sakura, do you want to live with me? I can buy you candy every day."
"If it's with Grandpa, it doesn't matter if there's no sugar." Cherry sniffed, "I like Grandpa."
After the child's crisp voice fell, old man Gongcheng suddenly felt his nose sore, his eyes began to blur, and tears slid down his sallow cheeks, as if he was crying out all the loneliness of more than ten years.
"Okay." Old Man Gongcheng hugged her, "...Okay."
Through his tear-stained eyes, the old man seemed to see a little white light, just like the black fragment he saw that night, except that it had turned into the color of hope, and then disappeared from his sight like a shooting star.
Not far away, Hinata Hajime and Jutsu Tadara were looking over there. They looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.
"It seems you can't pick up the little girl." Jishu Duoduoliang teased.
"This is the best ending." Hinata Hajime said with a smile: "Originally I was still struggling with how to deal with a little girl, and now she has a family that truly loves her. Isn't that great?"
Jutsu Tado nodded, "Then shall we go?"
"Not yet." Hinata Hajime pulled out the fake police ID he had made from his pocket, "Sakura has a mother."
"Speak of the devil and he will appear." Jutsu Tadoroki elbowed Hinata Hajime and said, "Look over there."
Miyagi Tokina ran forward. Unlike her previous gentle expression, her pretty face was full of distortion. Her overly distorted expression made her look particularly terrifying.
"Jutsu, keep an eye on them." Hinata Sou walked out, "I'll go take care of her."
"Okay." Jutsu Tadoroki moved his shoulders. "I just bought an extra gift. Mr. Miyagi probably won't want it, but Sakura-chan will like it."
When Miyagi Tokina was about to turn the corner and rush in front of the old man of Miyagi, Hinata Hajime stepped out from the side and stopped her steps.
"We meet again." Hinata Hajime said with a smile, "Ms. Miyagi."
"You!" Miyagi Tokina's face changed. "Police?"
Hinata Hajime took out his police ID and said, "Excuse me, when I was about to leave, I received a new order from my superiors. Miyagi Satoshi in prison said that you have been abusing your only daughter and he also produced evidence. Now, can you please come back with me?"
"That's my daughter! I can beat her however I want..."
"Are you saying this to a policeman?" Hinata Sou walked forward step by step. "Instead of explaining it to me, you should go back and explain it to the prosecutor."
Miyagi Tokina was frightened. She took two steps back and said, "No, that girl is talking nonsense. I like her so much, how could I hit someone?"
"Whether he has beaten someone or not, we can find out by going to the hospital for a checkup. Technology has developed so fast now, right?" Hinata Hajime took out handcuffs from his pocket, "Please come with me."
“No!” Miyagi Tokina turned and ran, “I don’t want to go to prison, I don’t want to go to prison!”
Hinata Hajime looked at her back, then he took out his cell phone from his pocket and sent a wanted order to Miyagi Tokina, which of course was fake.
But this was indeed the best intimidation for a woman with ulterior motives. She didn't have much affection for her daughter to begin with, and this time she came just to swindle some money. Faced with the possibility of going to jail, she would of course run faster than anyone else.
After giving the gift to Cherry, Jutsu Tadara came over and asked, "Is it solved?"
"Yeah." Hinata Hajime turned around and looked at the two of them, "Now we can go home."
Later, old man Miyagi took Sakura to look for Miyagi Tokina. He used his half-life savings to want to keep Sakura. He knew what kind of person Miyagi Tokina was and just hoped that Sakura could leave safely. However, when he arrived at the location, he found that Miyagi Tokina had already left.
"The policeman said she ran away." The hotel owner said, "I heard that she had done something wrong and was caught by the police. She was afraid of going to jail, so she just disappeared."
“I haven’t even been paid for the room.”
Old man Miyagi quickly gave the money to the boss, and a moment later he stood at the door holding Cherry.
"Grandpa." Sakura looked at Mr. Miyagi, "Is mom gone?"
"Gone." Old Miyagi squatted down and touched Cherry's hair. "It was the policeman who helped."
“They’re really nice people, aren’t they?”
Sakura didn't quite understand what this meant, but that didn't stop her from nodding her head seriously.
"Yes." Sakura agreed, "Police brother and Toushu brother, they are both very good."
“I like them, too.”
The old man laughed.
He thought: He should no longer be lonely for the rest of his life.
