Chapter XXIX

"Doctor, how's it going?"

At Shinjuku Hospital in Tokyo, Xia Long eagerly inquired to a middle-aged doctor.

"Not very well," the doctor groaned, looking at the girl on the bench in the hallway, who refused to speak, no matter how much he tried, "probably overstimulated, mentally autistic......

After a pause, the doctor turned to Xia Long and said, "Are you really her family?" ”

"Her family members have all been," Xia Long bit his lips lightly, "they were all killed by monsters, so now, I can be regarded as her relatives." ”

"Well, I don't know how many people have died during this time because of the monsters......," the doctor sighed and shook his head, "For children, this kind of stimulation is indeed a bit big." ”

"Isn't there anything that can be done?" Xia Long tightened his palms, "I promised to take good care of her, but it's ...... like this"

The girl sat alone in a chair, swinging her legs from time to time, holding her little face in a daze.

"It's a little difficult to heal," the doctor looked at the girl in embarrassment, his face couldn't bear it, "I can only look at herself, if the situation is optimistic, she can recover after a period of rest, the situation is serious, I'm afraid it ......"

Although the doctor's words were not finished, Xia Long knew what he meant. If the condition is severe, it may never recover.

"In short, take her out more and give her more love," the doctor patted Xia Long and advised, "it is better to arouse her own heart." ”

"Heart?" Xia Long looked at the doctor's departing figure in a daze.

"If she wants to get rid of her autism from the bottom of her heart, everything will just fall into place," the doctor paused and turned back, "so the key is to see if she can overcome herself." ”

Heart?

With a light sigh, Xia Long walked towards the girl.

"Reiko, let's go back!" Squatting in front of the girl, Xia Long said with a smile.

He'll definitely find a way!

"Reiko?" Seeing that the girl didn't move, Xia Long exhaled softly.

"Woo~" Reiko, who was in a daze, came back to her senses, as if she had seen something terrible, her petite body couldn't help but tremble, and her eyes were full of fear.

"What's wrong?" Xia Long was stunned, picked up the girl with pity, and comforted, "Don't be afraid, with me, there's nothing to be afraid of!" ”

Feeling the tremor of the girl in his arms, Xia Long's heart became even heavier.

No matter what, make sure Reiko gets better!

……

The calm Akiyama family.

Akiyama's mother-in-law was cleaning up her room when she faintly heard a doorbell ringing.

"It looks like I'm really old, and my ears are useless." Smiling and shaking her head, Akiyama's mother-in-law continued to fold her clothes, there were no guests at home all year round, and she felt that she had misheard.

"Jingle bell~" is another ringtone.

"Anyone?" The old man stopped what he was doing and walked towards the entrance suspiciously, "Who could it be?" ”

At the door, after ringing the doorbell, Xia Long thought about how to say about Reiko, after all, it might be a burden to Akiyama's mother-in-law.

"Reiko, don't worry, Akiyama's mother-in-law is a very good person, and you will definitely like her." While waiting, Xia Long introduced some of the situation of Akiyama's mother-in-law to the girl, although the girl still did not speak as always, Xia Long could feel that the girl's mood was faintly fluctuating.

"Longjun?" The door was opened from the inside, and an old man with a surprised face appeared in front of Xia Long.

"Akiyama granny." Seeing that the old man was stunned and looked at him in surprise, Xia Long hurriedly explained, "I actually want to ask my mother-in-law for help this time." ”

"Come in and talk about it." Granny Akiyama's eyes narrowed happily and beckoned, "It's too sudden, you sit down for a while, and I'll go grocery shopping right away!" ”

"No, no need," Xia Long pulled Reiko over, "I just took a day off and will be back soon." ”

"Who is this kid?" Only then did Akiyama's mother-in-law notice the girl who was following Xia Long.

……

In the bedroom, Xia Long carefully covered the quilt for the girl.

"What a poor little fellow." Akiyama's mother-in-law wiped her eyes and gently exited the bedroom with Xia Long.

"I'm sorry, Lady Akiyama, I'm going to trouble you again." Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Xia Long apologized.

He told the old man everything about Reiko's situation.

"It's not troublesome," the old man shook his head, "It's strange that I live alone, it's just right to have this child with me, and it's ......"

After a pause, the old man looked in the direction of the bedroom with nostalgia, and choked up: "I don't know why, when I see this child, I think of Liang." ”

"Mother-in-law......" Xia Long opened his mouth, not able to say anything, "I will apply to the headquarters after I go back to see if I can be transferred to the Tokyo branch, if I can, I will come over as long as I am free in the future." ”

Reiko's situation is not optimistic, he always has to think of more ways, other things are hard to say, but at least let the child feel family affection again.

"Long Jun, don't you rest for one night before leaving?" After some conversation, the old man sent Xia Long to the door, "It's not too early. ”

Although there is a crescent moon hanging in the night sky, sometimes a black cloud obscures the moon, and there are no pedestrians on the silent streets, and the occasional evening breeze blows a little chill.

"No," smiling at the old man, Xia Long shook his head and said, "There are still many things for me to deal with." ”

In addition to Reiko's affairs to be reported to the headquarters, there are many things waiting for him to deal with about Capsule Gorzan and even his future plans at TPC.

Reiko ......

After saying goodbye to the old man, Xia Long looked at the window on the second floor, his expression moving slightly.

Reiko's mother can be said to have suffered misfortune because of his mistakes, and in order to prevent such mistakes from happening again, he must completely master Gorzan's powers.

Also, light ......

Feeling the faint rhythm of light in his body, Xia Long's eyes flashed.

Many tragedies could have been avoided if the power of Light had been harnessed again.

"Takaki," Xia Long's voice came from Kirino's ear as he passed by the closed izakaya, "It's really powerful, I can easily destroy monsters, if it's me, I can only watch dry, it's really enviable." ”

"I should be envious," Xia Long paused and said aloud, "If I had your superpowers, I don't know how much trouble I would have saved." ”

"Really?" Kirino chuckled and stepped out of the shadows on the side of the street, "It seems that you are also worried about your abilities. ”

Looking at Kirino, who always looked melancholy, Xia Long spoke: "How about our cooperation?" ”

"Cooperation?" Kirino pushed his glasses in surprise.

"If you add your abilities, I will be able to minimize casualties......"

"Have you thought about the consequences?" Kirino didn't wait for Xia Long to finish speaking, and interrupted, "Your actions this time are very dangerous, if you don't pay attention again, TPC will soon find out about you." ”

Xia Long was silent, this time it was indeed very risky, mainly because he didn't expect Dagu to have an accident, and he used a capsule that he hadn't mastered yet.

"It seems that you don't know much about your own situation," Kirino snorted and continued, "People like us, because we are different, are destined not to be recognized by people, and if you use your abilities indiscriminately, it is not as simple as being scolded monsters." ”

"Of course I know," Natsuron looked directly at Kirino, "but we're also part of the human race, aren't we?" Regardless of whether you have the ability or not, you should do your part, let alone the ability? ”

"You're such a funny person." Shaking his head, Kirino turned to leave, "I'm not here to talk to you about this, I just want to inform you that the person you're looking for has news...... Keigo Masaki, a world-renowned physicist and the top head of Saidik Technology Research, if that's right, he's the one you're looking for. ”

"By the way, if you want to go to him, I'd advise you to give up this plan, it's a tough guy to deal with."
