Chapter 137 The Second Player
"Haruna-san!"
When Nishimi Haruto found Hanayamain Haruna, he happened to see her squatting on the ground with her head down, with a serious expression, as if she was talking to a small child.
"Hey, Haruna-san, did you pick up this child from somewhere?" Saikai Haruto asked curiously.
"Yuuki!" Hanayamain Haruna's eyes lit up: "Have you seen Wu and Jie?"
"I just bumped into this kid by accident. I don't know where his family is. And he doesn't seem to be able to speak. I don't know what to do."
Hanayamain Haruna is distressed.
At first she was indeed relieved. After all, she didn't accidentally bump into him and didn't hurt him. Moreover, the child didn't cry or make a fuss. He just stared at her with a pair of beautiful blue eyes. Who wouldn't like a child like this?
But she soon discovered that this child who neither cried nor made a fuss was too well-behaved - let alone crying or making a fuss, he didn't even speak!
"Is he sick? Was he abandoned here on purpose?"
Hanayamain Haruna was worried and her imagination was running wild.
"Haruna, you think a lot." Nishimi Haruto laughed.
"Actually, I didn't see them either. You know Wu's personality. They disappeared in the blink of an eye. Jie and I looked for them for a while but couldn't find them. When I turned around, you were gone too."
Saikai Haruto said, "Jie and I have simply separated. We agreed to meet upstairs if we find you and Wu."
He wondered if Gojo Satoru had a nickname called "Let Go". He was too curious. Whenever he saw something he had never seen before, he would go and play with it and take a look, and then ask him and Geto. But that was not all. If he didn't keep an eye on it, he would disappear.
The department store was crowded with people, and it was difficult to find her. When he looked back, Hanayamain Haruna was also missing... Nishimi Haruto and Kaguru Ken looked at each other, and simply separated to look for her. Unexpectedly, he had good luck this time, and he found Hanayamain Haruna very quickly.
But come to think of it, as long as he doesn't encounter something very dangerous, his luck is usually very good - but this doesn't apply when he encounters things related to "money".
"I was wondering why I couldn't find Haruna-san. I wonder if you had encountered such an accident. I don't think this child was abandoned on purpose... Look at his expression. He is actually very calm. Although he is very young, he looks very calm and composed. He is a smart child."
Xi Hai Qing Dou also squatted down, lowered his head and tried to make his eye level with the child, and tentatively waved his hand in front of his eyes.
The little boy in front of me looked about three or four years old, with a delicate and well-behaved face, a white and soft face, and a little baby fat on his face, which looked particularly good to the touch. He was wearing a simple and childish white T-shirt with blue stitching and brown overalls. His short black hair stubbornly stood up, looking a little messy, but there was no dirt on his hands, feet, or clothes. He was obviously a very clean child.
He had a pair of beautiful green eyes, which were big and bright, with the clarity and transparency unique to children, like a pool of the purest spring water reflecting the lush green forest, as if it could reflect everything good and bad, clean and dirty.
However, the expression in these eyes at this moment was not only clear and bright, but also held glaring, undisguised alertness and a little nervousness. The little lips were tightly pursed and the body was tense - children are the creatures who are least able to conceal or deceive, and any emotions they have will be clearly revealed in their eyes and body movements.
Xi Haiqing Dou could see that although the child in front of him looked calm beyond his age, he was still too immature. After all, no matter how "calm" and "mature" he was, he was still limited in age, and no matter how "mature" he was, there was a limit to his age. The resistance revealed by his body was so obvious to Xi Haiqing Dou that he must be very alert and dangerous.
Probably because he felt that resistance was useless, he didn't say anything, nor did he resist, but just stared at him with his green eyes without blinking. But surprisingly, he didn't seem to be in any state of anxiety, nor did he look afraid - he really looked a little too cute.
Xi Haiqingdou couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face. He has always disliked children, but this child in front of him is an exception - this child is too cute! ! This is simply a foul!
"Don't be afraid, little boy. This sister and I have no ill intentions. Are you alone here? Where are your parents? Did you accidentally get separated from them? There are a lot of people here. It's very dangerous."
He lowered his voice, and it was no longer as lively as before. Instead, it became much gentler and he seemed extremely patient.
"Igarashi Yuuki" was born with a harmless baby face, and he also had a pair of equally clean and clear green eyes with slightly drooping tails. He has a sense of innocence when looking at people, which can be said to be a killer for all ages. Whenever he makes a well-behaved and harmless expression, he can "fool" countless men, women, young and old, and make them treat him as the most well-behaved, sensible and innocent person in the world, and he is always successful in everything from three to five years old to eighty or ninety years old.
Nowadays, it is easy to use it to "trick" a three or four-year-old child.
The child blinked slowly, and then quickly blinked two or three times. His expression relaxed slightly, and the vigilance and suspicion in his eyes disappeared for the most part. A hint of confusion reappeared, and his body relaxed slightly, as if he half believed and half doubted what he said.
It looks quite like a cat...Xihai Haruto, who has a black cat at home, suddenly thought of it.
His expression softened again.
"My name is Igarashi Yuuki, you can call me Yuuki brother or Yuuki. The one next to you is Haruna sister, can I know your name?"
Saikai Haruto continued to ask.
Hanayamain Haruna looked a little surprised - it was the first time she saw "Igarashi Yuuki" being so patient and gentle.
How should I put it? Usually, "Yuuki Igarashi" is a very nice person, with a sunny and cheerful personality, full of vitality, endless enthusiasm for everything, a bright and warm smile, sincere and enthusiastic treatment of others, and considerate and meticulous in all details. He can be said to be a standard "sunny and cheerful big boy".
But DK is DK. No matter how normal a person is, when they meet Gojo Satoru and Geto, they immediately become childish. Forget about being "gentle" and "patient". All kinds of jokes and fights are the norm. And details are things that are easily overlooked. This is the first time that Hanayama Haruna has seen "Igarashi Yuuki" being so gentle and outward. It is very different from his usual image.
It's really surprising.
She imitated Saikai Haruto and smiled tenderly at the child, whispering, "My name is Hanayamain Haruna, what's your name, little friend?"
The child hesitated, turned his head back and forth to look between the two of them, shook his head, and then nodded.
"Megumi." said the child.
“Megumi?”
The child's voice was clear and tender, but Xi Haiqing Dou's expression was strange for a second - this is a name commonly used for girls. Although it is not impossible to use it for boys, it is generally more common for women to choose this name - like Kobayashi Emi.
The child nodded.
Could it be that he made a mistake? Was this child a girl?
Xi Haiqing Dou took another closer look - although the girl had a very pure and delicate appearance, the child's appearance had not yet fully developed, the lines were round and blunt, and the facial features were immature. The difference between a boy and a girl was not particularly big, but if you looked closely, you could still tell that it was a boy, and the voice could also be heard as a boy's.
"It's a very good name, Xiaohui." Xihai Qingdou said with a smile.
"Yuuki, you're amazing. I asked him several times just now, but he didn't respond to me at all."
Hanayamain Haruna tilted her head and whispered to Saikai Haruto: "I almost thought he was not very good at speaking or didn't understand what I said."
"Children are always wary, right? Xiaohui only said her name, so she's probably afraid that her name will be used by others." Nishimi Haruto didn't pay attention to Hanayamain Haruna's approach. He supported his chin with one hand and analyzed in a serious voice.
Hmm… Why did he feel that Xiao Hui’s name sounded familiar? Was it because the name was too popular? Or did he hear someone mention her somewhere recently?
"Eh? Could it be that Xiaohui is from some secret big family or something, so she can't reveal her last name?"
Hanayamain Haruna also whispered.
But the child in front of him didn't look like that, either, whether it was his clothes - he was wearing ordinary clothes; or his makeup - it was a bit messy and it was obvious that he hadn't been carefully groomed.
Besides, that kind of people wouldn't bring their children to a department store. They aren't ordinary people like her. Gojo Satoru doesn't count either - the young master had never been here before, and he was "tricked" into coming in by her this time.
Saikai Haruto: "Maybe she's afraid of being cheated, so she's a little more cautious - but these should all be taught by Xiaohui's parents, right? If you look at it this way, this child's parents should be good people."
Parents who teach children of three or four years old to be alert are responsible, right? So the child must have been lost by accident, right?
Simply because no one had ever called him by his full name, he was completely unfamiliar with his last name, and he only remembered that his name was "Mei", the child stood there obediently and blinked quietly.
I don’t understand.
And it didn't seem like she was talking to him.
Then it's not talking about him and has nothing to do with him, right?
Xiao Hui remained silent.
After thinking for a while, Xi Haiqing Dou asked the child in front of him: "What about your parents, Xiao Hui? Did you get lost from them? Do you still remember their names? Sister Haruna and I will take you to find them, okay?"
Are you talking to him?
I got lost from my dad again and I need to find him... Now is the time to get "that" out.
Xiaohui sensed a kind aura from the two older brothers and sisters in front of her, without any sense of uneasiness or danger. She skillfully took out the thing hanging around her neck and placed it in the hands of the older brother in front of her. It was obvious that she had done this many times.
"Huh?"
Xi Haiqing Dou looked at the sign that Xiao Hui put in his hand in surprise?
"Foshiguro Megumi, please report the loss, or contact Fushiguro Shiori, the contact information is xxxx......?"
