Akutagawa looked at Nakajima Atsushi: "Rashomon."
The evil beast that extended from the coat picked up Nakajima Atsushi, made him lean face up on the table, then went to the refrigerator and took out a tube of glucose for Nakajima Atsushi to drink.
Because of malnutrition, children in the family all have the problem of hypoglycemia, which needs to be adjusted slowly, so drinks such as glucose or cola are always available at home.
Seeing Nakajima Atsushi's eyes turn black, his legs start shaking and he faints, Akutagawa understands everything. He pinches Nakajima Atsushi's chin and forces him to drink the wine.
When Nakajima Atsushi opened his eyes again, he was thrown a bowl of fried noodles, a set of clothes and a towel on his head: "Go take a shower after eating."
Nakajima Atsushi, holding the clothes, belatedly said, "Does that mean I can stay?"
"We'll have to wait until tomorrow to see what everyone thinks." Since Luo Li said so, Akutagawa naturally wouldn't object. He would wait until his companions were okay and keep Nakajima Atsushi.
In fact, this is a foregone conclusion, and those children will not refute Akutagawa's words.
"I'll try my best!" Upon hearing that he could stay, Nakajima Atsushi quickly ate his bread and went to take a shower. He took just two steps and came back: "Where is the bathroom?"
Akutagawa turned a page: "At the end of the right hand."
When Nakajima Atsushi came out drying his hair, a mattress was spread on the living room, and Akutagawa was still sitting on the futon reading a book, as if these were not his doing.
"Thank you."
Akutagawa still doesn't understand what else stands out about Nakajima Atsushi besides his shabby bangs? What exactly caught Luo Li's attention?
"You sleep here tonight and we'll deal with the rest tomorrow." Akutagawa said and went back to his room without waiting for Nakajima Atsushi's answer.
Luo Li also stretched and slept on a pot of roses planted on the windowsill. Above it was a flower bed that she had built with magic that could only be seen by people who knew magic.
Akutagawa naturally knew that they were pretending to sleep. He found it a little funny to see them kicking the quilt to make it look real. He covered them with the quilt before going to sleep.
Nakajima Atsushi was so excited outside that he couldn't sleep until dawn. When he opened his eyes, he was woken up by the sound of dishes.
"You're awake. What's your name?" Nobuya saw Nakajima Atsushi open his eyes and came over to ask.
"Nakajima Atsushi."
"You have a surname, right? My name is Nobuya, and my surname is Akutagawa, just like Long." They were all orphans, and they had long forgotten their surnames. Their given names were all chosen by themselves. Later, in order to go to school, they took the surname Akutagawa.
Nakajima Atsushi didn't know what was so surprising about this, he just looked aimlessly for the existence that could make him feel at ease.
Seeing Nakajima Atsushi's expression, Yuji, who was drinking tea nearby, explained, "Ryu is still in the bedroom. He needs to take some time off today to take you to complete the adoption procedures."
"I can stay!" Nakajima Atsushi was surprised.
"Yeah, what else can I do? Long has already said it." Lin came out of the kitchen. Today she made breakfast while Katsumi and Gin made lunch boxes. "Can you cook?"
Nakajima Atsushi shook his head.
"Then you have to learn it in the future. Except for Long, everyone in this family has to be responsible for housework, and the duty roster will be arranged later." Keji put the packed lunch boxes on the table and asked them to put them in their schoolbags.
Yin came out with the remaining breakfast. He didn't stare at Nakajima Atsushi like the others did. He just looked at him and said, "Please enjoy it. I'll go call my brother over."
Yuuji helps set the chopsticks on the table. "I heard you have a special ability with a sense of smell? So learning should be easy, right?"
"Shouldn't a chef use his sense of taste?" Rin retorted.
Keji took a bite of rice and said, "Isn't this different?"
"You eat with your nose." Xin also retorted.
Nakajima Atsushi held the bowl and watched them playing, sighing that they had a really good relationship.
Ryunosuke took a leave of absence and came out with his sister: "I will go to your orphanage today to complete the adoption procedures."
"Okay." Nakajima Atsushi agreed obediently.
"Ryu, I want to go too." Katsumi came closer, but was pushed back ruthlessly by Ryunosuke.
"You go to class."
"Dragon, ruthless." Nobuya poured a cup of tea for Ryunosuke.
When they went to school, Nakajima Atsushi watched Akutagawa enter the room and come out as an adult. Nakajima Atsushi had no idea how this happened.
"Don't tell anyone about this." Akutagawa warned Nakajima Atsushi.
Yin and the others knew about Luo Li. Their lives had changed because of Luo Li, so it was impossible for them not to know about Luo Li's existence. It was just that because of the problems in this city, Luo Li preferred to remain invisible.
But rather than believing what Luo Li said about fairies and fairyland, they believed that Luo Li was a person with special abilities who could turn her body into a doll, or that she had special abilities.
They suspected a conspiracy but could not refuse her help, so they just made a silent wish in their hearts: no matter if they were asked to kill or set fire, or do anything else, as long as they were not separated and allowed to live well, it would be fine.
Luo Li was helpless about this and could only wait and see whether she had any ill intentions or not.
Nakajima Atsushi stared blankly at the adult-looking Akutagawa. Unlike his image before the transformation, where the lower part of his temples was white, he had pure black waist-length hair tied in a high ponytail, a black turtleneck sweater and straight casual pants, a neat but handsome outfit.
"What are you doing?" Akutagawa was looking for accessories and felt like a thorn in his back. When he turned around, Nakajima Atsushi almost stuck his eyes into his back.
"……Feel sorry."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke sighed: "We are already companions, no need to apologize."
Finally, Ryunosuke put on a pair of black and gray sunglasses, a wide-brimmed silver ring, a watch of the same color, and thin black star-shaped earrings.
