Chapter 1791: Dumb
Chapter 1791
There was a rustling sound in the alley.
After a while, a figure walked out.
Haruko and Xana looked over, and the homeless man just now had already dressed and walked out, because he was dressed, and the two of them could finally look at each other squarely.
"Hey, what's your name?" asked Xana.
The homeless man did not react at all.
Xia Na asked loudly a few more times, and said angrily, "It's so rude." ”
"Alright, Xana, don't you think he's not reacting like a normal person? I think his head might be hurt. Haruko walked up to the homeless man, the homeless's hair and beard had obviously not been repaired for many days, and he couldn't see any appearance, but those crystal clear eyes made Haruko's heart tremble.
Such eyes are so beautiful, they don't look like the eyes of a homeless man at all, but there is no trace of agility in such eyes, which makes Haruko can't help but feel a little sour in her heart.
And after getting close to the homeless man, she found that the homeless man did not have the rancid smell of ordinary homeless people, but had a faint fresh breath, which made people feel very comfortable and peaceful.
Is this really a homeless man? Haruko was skeptical.
"Do you remember the name? Or, the name of your family, where is your home, don't worry, as long as you say it, I will definitely do my best to help you. ”
Haruko asked.
It's just that the homeless man still didn't react.
"Haruko, don't ask again, I think he's just a mute, let's call him mute, hey, mute. Xana said.
"Xana!"
"Isn't it? We don't know his name, so we have to give him a name, or call him a bum, I think it's better to be dumb. Xana said.
Haruko was impressed by Xia Na's theory, because she really didn't know how to call him a homeless man, so she couldn't just give him a name, and it was disrespectful to change someone's name casually in Japan.
"Alright then, let's call dumb for now, dumb, are you hungry?"
Haruko took out a bento and water from her backpack, which she had prepared before she arrived.
The dumb man didn't move.
However, Haruko now understands the behavior patterns of the mute somewhat, and he is like a baby who forgets everything.
Haruko hurriedly opened the bento and demonstrated the action of eating to the mute.
After a while, sure enough, the dumb man took the lunch box she gave and ate it.
Haruko smiled triumphantly.
When the dumb man finished eating the bento, Haruko put away the bento box.
Xana next to her exclaimed:
"Haruko, it's already seven o'clock, if I don't go home again, my father will definitely reprimand me, so let's send the mute to the shelter quickly. ”
Haruko looked at her watch, it was almost seven o'clock.
Although she felt that there was a very peculiar sense of peace with this homeless man.
But she knew that she would never be able to bring a strange homeless man home, and her father would be very angry.
I'm just a high school girl.,I don't have much ability.。
Now the only way to do this is to send him to the shelter, hoping that the shelter will find out about him, find his family, and bring him back.
"Let's go. Haruko whispered.
After dressing the homeless man and finally being able to take him to the bus, the three of them took the bus to the rescue shelter in Kashima City, which is dedicated to the displaced people and pets.
However, Kashima is not big in the first place, so this shelter looks even more deserted.
Haruko and Xana lead the homeless man into the shelter.
The facilities inside were very shabby, the air was filled with a rancid smell, and in a hall, there were seven or eight homeless people sitting scattered, and there were more than a dozen stray dogs in the cage in the corner, and two white coats were yawning boredly in the small room at the door.
This made Haruko's brow furrow slightly.
"Hey, what's the matter with you?" a young man in his twenties got up and saw two young girls walk in, and his eyes finally got a little more excited.
"Hello, Yoshida-kun. Haruko saw the badge on the other party's white coat, and quickly bowed: "This is a wanderer we met on the road, and we hope he can get help." ”
"Tramp?"
Yoshida glanced at the homeless man who was following the two women, and suddenly lost interest: "If the homeless man is a bum, just go over there and wait, today's food has been distributed, and I will talk about it tomorrow." ”
"Yoshida-kun, his situation is different, he seems to be injured here, he can't remember anything, and he can't speak, so we want him to be better settled......"
Before Haruko could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Yoshida: "Little sister, since he has arrived here, there will naturally be a police officer to register or check his identity, as for the rest, do you expect us to give him a five-star luxury private room and send a special servant to serve him?"
"You ......"
Haruko's face was a little angry, but Xana quickly pulled her sleeve and whispered, "Haruko, the shelters are like this, if you quarrel with him, the dumb man will stay here, maybe he will be treated unfairly." ”
Haruko took a breath, she understood that what Xana said made sense.
It was already dark now, and she had nowhere else to take the mute there, at least to keep out the wind and rain.
She could only take the mute to the side of the chair and let him sit down: "Brother mute, you stay here first, I will come to see you again tomorrow and bring you something to eat." ”
With that, Haruko and Xana ran out of the shelter in a brisk manner.
For she saw the mute, confused, clear eyes, as if it were a sin to put him alongside the stinking, drunken vagabonds of the asylum.
But she couldn't think of where she could send the mute.
He can only be left here.
This made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Haruko, why are you crying. ”
"Nothing, the wind blew the sand into the eyes......"
Haruko, who returned home, rarely did not have kendo training, and the next day, after school, she immediately brought her carefully prepared lunch box at noon to the Kashima City Shelter.
When she entered, she was stunned, and the inside was a mess, and the tables and chairs had been overturned to the floor.
And yesterday's two white coats, both with bandages.
"What's wrong?Yoshida-kun, what's going on, what's going on, dumb brother?" Haruko didn't see the dumb man, and immediately asked Yoshida.
"Damn, you're still asking me," Yoshida said angrily, "In the morning, we kindly tried to shave his hair and beard, but he wouldn't let us touch it, and broke one of my hands, so we tried to tie him up, and who knew that he broke the rope and made it look like this, and then he ran out." ”
(Recently, I have written too much about fighting and killing, and I will write a little bit of urban daily life, which will not be very long, and it is less taboo to write in Japan, if you don't like daily life, then skip it)
