The four-year-long blank memory is a kind of torture for Ritsu Sasashima.

Because he has lived in the house for as long as he can remember, he doesn't remember who his parents were, he didn't know what happened before he was four years old, and he didn't even remember how he was doing in those four years.

But since he grew up, he remembered a lot of things, and he thought that he could remember his biological parents when he was young, but in the end he found that his biological parents were not recorded in the lost memory.

Ritsu Sasashima is not an imaginative type, and he doesn't like to fantasize about unrealistic things. But when he recalled that his life was without the care of his parents, his heart felt like a vacant piece.

He has wondered if his parents don't love him, and he has also wondered if his newborn self was so naughty that he was fostered by them to the Akai family.

Ritsu Sasashima sat at her desk in her lounge clothes, looking at the old-fashioned tape recorder and cassette tapes that had been obsolete for years... The truth I have been pursuing is right in front of me, but I don't have the courage to listen to it.

If his parents really don't like him and abandon him, then what should he do?

"Let others be brave to face their fate, but they don't have the courage to face their own... It's really embarrassing. ”

Ritsu Sasashima lifted his hair and covered it with his hands, and after a moment of silence, he still carefully picked up the tape, and did not dislike the heavy dust on it, and carefully wiped it clean before stuffing it into the old-fashioned tape recorder.

After seven seconds of silence, a warm voice sounded, and it was a tone that I had never heard before.

- "To 1-year-old Ritsu, I wish you a happy birthday." You should be growing up under the care of your two older brothers now, right? I really want to see Xiaolu's cute appearance, have you eaten well, and listen to Miss Mary more. Forgive Mom and Dad for not being able to be there for you, and we'll try to get out of here. ”

- "Because we really want to meet our favorite Xiaoyu." ”

It's Mom's voice.

The eyes couldn't help but turn red, the nose was sour, and the tears had run out two years ago, so why couldn't help but want to cry?

Ritsu Sasashima slowly lay on the table and closed his eyes, tears still slipping down, he is indeed strong, but no matter how strong a person is, he will have a soft side.

It turns out that Mom and Dad didn't foster him because they didn't like him, they were imprisoned in the institute by the same damn organization as Miyano's parents... So back then, when I was comrade and protected the research file of the research APTX4869, were the two researchers whose names were not clear to my parents?

Thinking of this, his pale blue eyes were filled with hatred.

His parents were also looking forward to meeting him, but in the end they died in a fire, and they didn't even have a tombstone left, and even as children, they don't know where they died.

- "To 2-year-old Ritsu Sasashima, I wish you a happy birthday. ”

Dad's voice sounded similar to his own, but it was a little more mature and seized. And in the background sound, you can still hear the mother's dissatisfied voice, saying "How can you call your son by his full name".

- "Dad wants you to grow up healthy and happy, and never come into contact with the organization. If you can listen to this recording before college, I hope you can not choose a major in biochemistry, be an ordinary child, and live this life as an ordinary person. ”

Ritsu Sasashima couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he whispered in his heart: Dad, it's too late. I can't go on now... But don't worry, I'm going to destroy the organization that killed you, definitely.

- "To 7-year-old Xiaolu, I wish you a happy birthday." You, who are about to enter the national elementary school, should already be a strong man, right? While studying, remember to combine work and rest, Mom believes that you must be a very smart and good child. ”

- "To 8-year-old Ritsu Sasashima, I wish you a happy birthday." All the wealth that Mom and Dad have accumulated is left to you, but you have to remember to make money by your own efforts... Hey, what are you hitting me for? ”

The mother's complaint came from the background sound, mostly accusing the child that his father actually asked his child to make money independently at the age of eight.

Sashima Ritsu was also quite helpless, he looked at the legal provisions, and couldn't help but talk to each other in the air: "Dad, no company will have an eight-year-old child, no matter how smart I am, my knowledge reserve is not enough to work." ”

- "To 14-year-old Ritsu Sasashima, I wish you a happy birthday." Record all your birthday wishes in one day before you turn twenty years old, and you really don't know what to say. ”

- "But this doesn't mean that Dad doesn't love you, maybe your personality is not good at words like me, and you don't like to express your true thoughts." As a person who has come over, Dad wants to tell you that others will only know if you say your thoughts, don't always wait for others to guess, you know? ”

Fourteen years old.

Ritsu Sasashima recalls that at the age of 14, he resolutely left his family and went to live alone in Tokyo. It was the most rebellious and crazy thing he ever did as a young man, but he didn't regret it at all, because it was one of the best decisions he ever made.

If he hadn't left, he might have spent his life as an ordinary person as his parents expected. But only by leaving can he come into contact with the people who love him and the best friends he loves.

- "To 17-year-old Xiaolu, I wish you a happy birthday." At this age, you've almost found a girl you like, right? Mom tells you that you must be patient when pursuing girls, and you can learn from your father, who is not good at anything, but he is very romantic and not a straight man. ”

Ritsu Sasashima couldn't help but smile wryly when he heard this, he was full of studies when he was seventeen years old, skipping a grade as much as possible to graduate from college with his friends, passing the bar exam together, and then entering the police academy to study.

As for falling in love? At that time, I really didn't have the energy to allocate time to love. And the romance that mom said... Ahem, Ritsu Sasashima said that he was embarrassed, he really didn't seem to have inherited the essence of his father.

- "Xiao Lu must be very popular in the school, right?" Are there a lot of girls pursuing you?,Because Xiaolu, I hugged you when you were born.,Everyone agrees that you look like me.,So now you must be super super handsome! ”

- "But you have to remember! Even if there are many girls pursuing you, you can only pursue one, and then treat her well, understand? Otherwise, when I go to you, I'll be ready to accept Mom's fist of justice! ”

I didn't expect my mother to have this kind of character.,And the "Fist of Justice" or something.,How can she be like a second-class sick girl who loves to watch anime like Hayakasaka.。

Ritsu Sasashima shook his head helplessly, he wanted to tell his mother that he was just a lonely "old man".

Falling in love is something he can't experience in his life. Because after taking the first APTX4869, his time is frozen, so he is no longer qualified to love someone.

He didn't want to be young and watch his partner grow old. He also didn't want to face the death of his lover, so he chose not to give his heart away, and he would never be hurt alone.

- "To 18-year-old Ritsu Sasashima, I wish you a happy birthday. You, who are about to become adults, also have certain abilities. Dad hopes that if you meet Akemi Miyano and Shiho Miyano in the future, you can take good care of them. ”

- "I haven't told you our name for so long, my name is Yuichi Orihara, and I have a younger brother named Atsuji Miyano, as for why the name is different, it's because Atsuji's surname has been changed to his adoptive father's surname." ”

- "Hey, hey, you're so cunning, tell Xiaolu your name first." Xiaolu Xiaoritsu, I'm your mother, my name is Haruka Sasashima, of course, it's Haruka Orihara now! ”

Ritsu Sasashima couldn't help but raise his head when he heard this, how could he not have thought that he was actually related to the Miyano sisters by blood, so he was their cousin?

It's no wonder that when I first met Shiho, I had a subtle feeling, and it turned out to be a bond of blood.

He stood up and was about to tell the two people in the living room the news, when he heard a string of English coming from the earphones.
