polepole restaurant.
Because Dad and Nana wanted to buy swimsuits, the task of looking at the store was also given to Godai Minoru, who happened to be here.
Not long after, Sakurako also came to the store. Today is Saturday, and Sakurako Sawatari, who had finished deciphering the super-ancient text, just had time to go shopping.
Godai Yusuke called the store in advance to explain, so both Minoru and Sakurako knew that Mr. Kanzaki would come here soon if he had something to do.
As the younger sister of Godai, Minoru Godai is also very familiar with Mr. Kanzaki, and Sakurako has become familiar with him because of the last agreement.
So when Kanzaki Shoji got off the JR line and came to polepole, Godai Minoru and Sakurako were already ready to welcome him.
In front of the counter, the three of them sat together and talked.
Kanzaki said with some sadness: "Since when did Kirishima become so distressed? As a teacher, I can't understand him. It's a pity."
"But he still told the teacher frankly about his family affairs." Sakurako said thoughtfully.
Kanzaki Shoji glanced at her and showed a kind smile.
Yes, even children who are in distress are still willing to talk to him, which proves that at least he is still a conscientious teacher.
"Children today are harder to understand than before. They are surprisingly well-behaved and obedient. But what should I say?"
Kanzaki stared at the drink in his glass, "Their various differences are gradually shrinking, and they have become mature, right? But at their age, they no longer have innocence."
Godaime couldn't help but nodded, and said with deep understanding: "When I see some older children on the street, I often feel that they are very cold. When I go to the nursery, I can see different smiling faces, which makes me feel cuter. ah."
Every time he thinks of those lively children, Godai Nino feels happy from the bottom of his heart.
"Maybe there is something in my heart that I can't say out loud," Yingzi said, "but I still long for others to understand me."
"Maybe that's the case."
Kanzaki sighed softly: "Do you mean that they are already in sixth grade? Or should we say that they are only in sixth grade? Sometimes I feel that the children are very pitiful. Today's children have no worries. First of all, it is because they have no worries. time. Besides, it’s hard to be distressed and hurt. That’s why I use other things to forget about it.”
He said seriously: "I feel terrible sometimes when I watch TV recently. It says it's okay not to worry, buy more interesting things, spend money in interesting places... Anyone can live without thinking about anything." An idea, right?!”
"But the most important thing." Kanzaki exhaled the depression in his chest and said in a long voice: "...it is the suffering itself."
…
Asakusa Bridge, near the shrine.
Higashino Ryusuke had some free time after solving the owl monster. Although he was injured in the battle with the vulture, he quickly recovered under the influence of the spirit stone, so he drove to the Asakusabashi area according to the positioning on the motorcycle.
He found Godai's motorcycle outside a silent shrine. Ryusuke parked the motorcycle next to it and walked into the shrine. He could hear the conversation coming from inside beyond the hearing of ordinary people...
The fifth generation's persuasion is never to coax the other person, but to treat everyone gently.
Kirishima gradually opened up his heart under the guidance of Godai, "...The last assignment was to write about the 'future'. When I was writing it, I felt a bit...I kept thinking about what would happen if this goes on. ?”
"...I understand all those principles, and I have always done that. Go to cram schools, go to better places, meet friends, and be popular with everyone... But there are always many moments when I feel that it is so troublesome and tiring. That way It’s impossible to go down…”
"Probably." Godai said calmly, "Then just worry more."
Kirishima looked at him in surprise: "But if you keep worrying here, will you get the answer?"
Godai thought for a while and replied: "I can't get it, because if I could get the answer so easily, I wouldn't have so many worries."
"Oh." Kirishima lowered his head in disappointment.
"But..." Godai suddenly said very firmly: "Don't worry about time, you can spend as many years as you want to pursue the answer! Because everyone grows up in distress. The place that belongs to you will not disappear, as long as you are still alive, That place will always be yours.”
"Let's put it this way, to paraphrase Mr. Kanzaki's words: 'Wouldn't it be better to find the person you really like in the place that belongs to you?'"
The boy and Godai looked at each other and smiled, finally putting down the heavy masks on their faces.
Has he really figured it out? Not necessarily, but at least at this moment, his worries were alleviated a lot.
In fact, most of the troubles in your youth were like this. Looking back on your youth, do you ever remember what the troubles were at that time? Have you found the answers to your troubles?
Maybe most of them are forgotten as you grow older, but it was the troubles at that time that made you start some kind of profound thinking about yourself for the first time, and also started the first step of growing up...
"Okay, let's go back. The teacher is still waiting for us!"
Godai and Kirishima got up and walked outside the shrine together, but when they turned the corner, Godai saw Higashino Ryusuke standing behind the trees.
"Ryujiesang, why are you here!" Godai said in surprise, noticing that there was some blood on his right trouser leg. He leaned closer and asked in a low voice with some worry: "Well, how is the situation? Are you injured?"
Ryusuke smiled lightly and said: "I just wander around casually, don't worry, it's completely fine."
"Let's go!"
He turned and left, followed by Godai and Kirishima.
The one you really like!
Thoughts were racing in Ryusuke's mind.
If I remember correctly, Godai has always hated violence, but from the day he got the belt, he had to face what he hated all the time.
Why can you still be so determined to comfort others when you have clearly lost the person you really like?
Utsunomiya Station.
Teacher Kanzaki has been waiting here for a long time.
Even though they were far apart, Godai waved vigorously and greeted Kanzaki-sensei warmly.
Kirishima Taku was still a little flustered. He had run away from home after all. Maybe the teacher would blame him? Thinking like this, he didn't dare to raise his head.
Kanzaki looked at them from a distance, standing straight.
Godai patted Kirishima's shoulder lightly.
Kirishima Taku raised his head slightly and glanced at the teacher. One hand was hanging down, but he quietly raised it slightly.
He can't be that cheerful now, but he has quietly given a thumbs up.
Teacher Kanzaki smiled happily. He raised his arms vigorously and affirmed the boy from a distance. He gave the boy the warmest recognition for his courage to take the first step!
The seeds of faith sprout in my heart.
Perhaps from this moment on, it is destined that this beauty and encouragement will eventually be inherited by this young man named Kirishima Taku...
