Chapter 149: The Consciousness of Survival
After Misaka fell asleep at night, he soon entered the past memories of Asakura leaves, watching his first crossing, he felt completely puzzled and confused about his rebirth, he had just given birth to his mother, and he just kept telling something, but he didn't understand a word, and he wasn't in the mood to remember even what he said.
His mother's subsequent death and recovery of his body were retrieved, but instead of wanting to take care of him, he left to fend for himself. It made him even more confused about his rebirth, and he didn't know what to do at all, so he could only cry helplessly there, silently leaving everything to fate.
The nanny, who was supposed to take care of him as a baby, didn't throw the hot water milk powder directly beside him because it was a child who had just been born not long ago, and left directly regardless of whether he could drink it or whether he was hungry.
Is that woman really here to take care of Ah Ye? If an ordinary baby encounters such a thing, I'm afraid it will already starve to death. Watching Asakura Ye use his hands and feet together, he threw the nanny on the ground to give the baby food, and felt angry at the nanny's behavior, and at the same time felt glad that Asakura Ye was a traverser.
Although Asakura had forgotten what the nanny had shouted at him, Misaka was sure that the other party must have had a bad impression of Asakura Ha, and could even conclude that she had not come to take care of Asakura at all.
Every time he saw such a situation, Misaka felt extremely annoyed. But she couldn't do anything, she could only watch her treat Asakura Ye like this. Fortunately, he was a traverser himself, and he only learned to walk in a few months, and his teeth grew out.
Seeing that the nanny was not coming to Asakuraha's house, Misaka's heart felt extremely happy. In her eyes, Ma Cangha can still live a better life without that nanny.
But soon, this naïve thought dissipated from what happened after she watched Asakura leaves. Without the arrival of that nanny, the only source of food for the Asakura leaf would have disappeared.
Fortunately, he was lucky enough to find some dry food, water and food in the kitchen. Since there was no way to find fuel such as firewood or natural gas for cooking, he could only stare at the rice, but there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, there was enough dry food for him to not have to worry about food for a while, but the storage amount could only help him solve his urgent needs, and it could not keep him in this house for a long time.
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with the future, the air in his nasal cavity was suddenly occupied by a foul smell. As the more memories he made of watching Asakura leaves, the more true Misaka became to what he experienced.
So when the nasal cavity of the Asakura leaf is occupied by that stench, his own is also full of stench.
This is... Garbage heaps?
Determining that there is a garbage dump nearby, Asakura can only take advantage of the night to observe the street scene in the vicinity through the window on the second floor, and at the same time confirm that the home he is in is not popular with the people here, but can be said to be extremely disgusting.
A month later, the bowl was empty because the dry food was eaten and the rice in the bowl was occupied by rats. Despite knowing that the people here hated him, he left the home where he had lived for months with the mindset that he would be able to find food.
And the truth was just as he thought, after passing through a few streets and walking into the crowd, he was soon surrounded by the spitting of the people, and the stones that flew from nowhere knocked him unconscious.
There was a burning pain in his head, and a blush ran down his head.
Those guys, is that to a child who hasn't turned a year old like that?
Touching the red-hot red liquid, looking at the dark red blood scab on her hand that was slowly condensing, the viscous feeling was something she had never experienced before, and at the same time, she felt extremely disgusted by the group of people who spit on Ma Cangye just now.
Although Ma Cangye's mental age is already an uncle in his thirties, his current physical condition is just a child who has not yet reached the age of one, and his body is not fully developed at all, no matter how much he hates him, he doesn't have to make such a dead hand.
Fortunately, Ma Cangye woke up unharmed, and the wound on his head was also healed unconsciously, but it was not self-healing, but someone should help him heal. Although there were no marks on the wound, the dust from the stone was still sticking to it.
This also made Misaka sure that the other party was using the power of a magical system, rather than the medical science of technology.
Do you want to see Naruto tomorrow?
Remembering that Asakura Ha once said that the world he once traveled through was Naruto, Misaka hesitated to take a look and study how the people of that world used their powers.
Forget it. It's the same with Ah Ye's memory.
But then when I remembered that I could also see clearly how the people in that world used their power through the memories of Asakura leaves, I dispelled this idea.
Although he was very dissatisfied with this outing, it also confirmed that the people here hated him very much, and at the same time, it also gave him a certain understanding of this world, which is not a high-tech world, but has a world similar to magic.
The most important point is that Asakura Ye confirmed that the place he had just traveled to was a not very prosperous shopping street where there was a bakery. After being released from prison, he spent some time in a bakery, and he still has some experience with how bakeries deal with bread that can't be sold.
In fact, just as he thought, at night he found that one of the people who had just seen the excitement should be an employee of the bakery, judging by his clothes. After seeing him throw a bag of garbage in the garbage heap, he left.
Ma Cangye immediately ran forward and dragged the bag of garbage that had just been thrown away home. I make a living by picking up garbage. Looking at his blushing face with all his might, Misaka smiled inwardly.
But will it go so well?
Looking at his tired and expectant look, Misaka was puzzled as to whether there was enough food in the garbage bag. At the same time, there is a sense of foreboding.
Sure enough, as she thought, although there was some bread in the garbage bag, it was all a failure, and if you eat it, you may eat your stomach. Or some paper towels that I don't know what to wipe, or apples that are rotten or eaten.
Sure enough, it was just a neighborhood bakery, and it didn't even think about throwing away all the bread that couldn't be sold.
Looking at the contents of the garbage bag, Misaka realized that the bakery and the one where Asakura Ye worked before the crossing were not at all the same level of existence.
It seems that Ah Ye must find a way to get other food sources.
Just when she thought that Asakura Ye would return the garbage bag to its original place, Asakura Ye took out the contents one by one, ignoring the smell of rolling inside, ignoring the unknown liquid sticking to his hands, he just took out all the contents that could be called food.
"Picking up moldy bread, rotting apples, and even dog food from the garbage dump....."
Could it be that what was said back then was true?
Watching his movements, Misaka recalled what Asakura had said a few days ago when he had lunch with Bee Eater. At that time, she always thought he was talking casually. But from now on, Asakura is not lying, but in order to survive, he dares to eat anything.
The smell of bread and rancid smell from her mouth took over her mouth at the same time, proving that Asakura was eating food that made people immediately sick to her stomach when she saw it, and although Misaka didn't like it, she could only force it to endure the feeling of gagging.
In the days that followed, Misaka tried bread for the first time, and there were so many variations, sour, bitter, spicy, salty, and umami, except that she didn't have the texture she usually had when she ate bread, she basically tasted everything.
As the last food stock slowly faded, Ma Cangye pulled back the bakery's garbage bag from the garbage heap again, but this time the food was not as rich as the last time, but only some square bread skins or bread that others had eaten and discarded.
I see, it's training newcomers.
Misaka, who understood what was going on, thought helplessly.
After Ma Cangye figured it out, he had no choice but to take out the food that he had finally obtained, and then eat it, and at the same time decided to check all the garbage bags at the garbage station tomorrow, otherwise the garbage in the bakery would not be able to sustain his own survival at all.
