Chapter 31: Yanzhu
Lan Yuan Yanzhu is a child who longs for heroes.
She grew up in the suburbs of Tokyo Ward, and was adopted by Rentaro Satomi not long ago, registered with the government, and fought together as partners.
Children tend to love heroes, and the heroes of the Cursed Child are even stronger.
Since birth, the cursed children have been constantly suffering from physical and mental injuries, although the cursed children are young, but there are many people who have long given up the illusion of heroes and have to face the imminent reality, but there are many more children who still have fantasies and pray for a hero to save them.
Or, according to the harsh reality, the vast majority of the cursed children who realized that there would be no hero to save themselves are already dead.
The Cursed Child is not like ordinary people, at least in Tokyo and even in the island country, the Cursed Child does not enjoy the protection of the law - the ordinary child is frustrated, which may only be a long memory, and the Cursed Child is frustrated, and the result is very likely to be lost.
Moreover, in practical terms, the reason for the discarding of the Cursed Son is ridiculous.
All the protozoa, but all species that have eyes, have eyes that flash red, and many of the people of the generation who were attacked by protogulars ten years ago contracted mental illness because of this.
- Although red eyes do not mean anything, because there is no commonality in the strange shape of gastroids, the red eyes that almost all archatics have have become a symbol of gastrulation.
The cursed son also has the genes of the original intestines, and whenever he is emotional, his eyes will turn into the same red as the original intestines, so that when the society did not know that the high erosion rate of the cursed children would be the gastrulation, a large number of humans abandoned the children, and even directly drowned the children and strangled them.
Today's large number of orphaned and cursed sons are products of that period.
The reason why adults abandon children is not because the Cursed Child will become an Arachtoid - it was discovered that the Cursed Child would become an Aracht, and the Caused-Gastral Virus erosion rate in the Cursed Child's body rose to 50%, which was not a matter of the early days of the Arazoan War, and the vast majority of parents abandoned their children just after discovering that their children's eyes would turn red.
Ten years ago, during the initial period of turmoil, the number of cursed children born was the highest, and after that, the countries of the world entered a period of confrontation with the original intestines and entered a period of revival, and the number of cursed children born was only sporadical.
Ninety percent of the cursed sons were born ten or nine years ago, and now ninety percent of the orphaned cursed sons are abandoned just because they have the same red eyes as the original intestines - although it cannot be said absolutely, but the parents who do not abandon their children because of the eyes of the cursed children, and most likely will not abandon the children because of the official news that the cursed children will become original intestines.
After all, there is still an erosion rate, as long as you go to the hospital regularly to find out the erosion rate of the child, until it reaches the irreparable limit, it is too late to give up the child - even if the world is dark, there is never a lack of light, and there are indeed parents who do not want their children whose erosion rate has reached the limit to be dealt with by the official, and help the child hide the identity of the cursed child, so that the child's family dies after the child's original intestine becomes animalized.
However, there are not many such cases, and there are many factors that affect the genetic erosion rate of the Atomic Enterovirus of the Cursed Child, but the most important are two factors.
First, the more battles are fought, the more the child will use the genes belonging to the original enterovirus, and the erosion rate will increase significantly.
Second, psychological factors, the negative emotions of the cursed child fluctuate too much, which will accelerate the erosion of the original intestinal virus.
As a result, the erosion rate of the cursed child who follows the parents is usually much lower than that of the cursed child in the wild, and the erosion rate generally does not reach 50% in the current period of only ten years of large-scale invasion of the intestines.
To tell the truth, the vast majority of abandoned cursed sons are quite dissatisfied with their current situation-
If it is said that the child will become a monster in the future, it is better to say that the parents chose to abandon the child, which can be completely justified, such as separating from the child sooner or later, since it is so sooner rather than later, if a deeper relationship is cultivated, each other will only be more reluctant in the future - although this reason is disgusting.
What's more, the cursed son is a time bomb, and parents don't want the time bomb to be around them - although this idea is a little inferior, the kind cursed son can use this conversation to comfort.
But in fact no, nine out of nine cursed sons were abandoned only because they had red eyes, before almost everyone knew that the cursed children would be atomic.
The reason is simple, because of fear, because of fear, because of disgust with the red eyes that resemble protosagulars, and...... Vent.
The reason is so ridiculous, not even because of the hatred of the cursed son, but more because the once peaceful era has been broken, the days of comfort are gone, and in such a magical reality, under the oppression of the original intestines, the powerless adults can only vent their accumulated anger on the children who know nothing.
It's not that the Cursed Son is sinful, it's just that for the sheer reason of being able to vent his resentment on the Cursed Son, the adults drown the child, abandon the child, and even run to the outskirts to abuse the Cursed Child.
Never overestimate the bottom line of human beings, in the case of 80% of the world's human deaths, the complete collapse of the old order, and the precariousness of every day, just because of the red eyes of their children and protosalts, it makes sense logically from a personal point of view.
But how innocent is this for the Cursed Son?
To put it bluntly, because the cursed son is a time bomb that will become a protogullar and abandon the child, that is more or less reasonable, although parents should not abandon the child, too selfish and selfish, but the cursed child does have its own problems.
But just because of the negative emotions of the adults, the cursed child is used as a vent?
One consequence of this action is that the Cursed Son is well aware that there is something wrong with his treatment.
In fact, after arousing the anger of almost everyone in Tokyo City against the Cursed Son, choosing to establish an ecosystem about the Cursed Child is the most inexplicable solution.
Through social influence, through brainwashing education, it is announced to the Tokyo district that the cursed son is born with original sin, which can only be resolved by fighting with the original intestines, and some theories and teaching materials are fabricated, and at the same time, the cursed son is unified, and the cursed son is forbidden to receive normal education and enlightenment...... This is the most thorough way to make use of it.
However, Tokyo only used the cursed sons as a tool for the people to vent their dissatisfaction, and expelled the cursed sons to the outer districts, but instead allowed some of the cursed sons to develop normal values.
Although only with some distorted correct values...... For example, the values of ordinary people are that if someone else hurts me, I will call the police, and the value of some cursed children is that if someone else hurts me, I will retaliate back, this value may be a little distorted, but it may not be incorrect.
However, after all, the cursed sons are just children, the oldest is only 10 years old, and there are not many distorted values, even if more cursed children are sensitive to the fact that they should not suffer this treatment, should not be abandoned by their parents by this society, and should not bear the abuse and white eyes of most people, but what the children want is not to take revenge on the society, but that someone can save themselves from such an unreasonable world.
Hero!
For the Cursed Child, Hero is an extremely special title, and it is the dream of many Cursed Children.
I hope to live a life where I can eat enough every day.
Would love to have a sheltered house to live in.
I hope to have three meals a day, I hope to wear beautiful clothes, I hope to make friends-
If there really are gods in the world, if the gods really care about the fate of the world, then the cursed son is abandoned from birth, and it can only be said that the gods are joking.
Children can only hope that in this hell called reality, there are heroes who can save themselves.
Lan Yuan Yanzhu has lived in the outer area since she was a child and was adopted by kind-hearted old people, despite this, there are very few materials in the outer area, and she is not living well, not having enough to eat is just a common thing, besides, even if she barely fills her stomach to live, the needs of human beings are not just to live.
Not long ago, she and Satomi Rentaro met and became partners with each other - Satomi Rentaro literally pulled her out of hell and allowed her to live a new life.
Satomi Rentaro is a person...... Lan Yuan Yanzhu didn't really want to speak ill of him, and in getting along with each other, this person actually had a lot of problems.
As far as Ranhara Yanzhu knows, Rentaro likes Miss Kigen, and the enemy of Tendo Kigen is Tendo Kikunojo, the number one political leader in Tokyo District, and Miss Kigen has long given up formal means, and only thinks about fighting to the death with the enemy through violence.
But Rentaro is only willing to help Miss Kisharan find evidence of her enemy's illegality, but Rentaro intends to stop Miss Kisharan from killing people, because killing people is illegal.
Even Lan Yuan Yanzhu knows that it is impossible for this kind of political boss to be defeated by digging up black materials.
But it is undeniable that Satomi Rentaro is really good to the people around him, and he is willing to give his life for the people around him, but the good situation is a little strange.
Originally, Satomi Rentaro was cultivated as an heir by Tiantong Kikunojo, but he chose Tiantong Kigen, left Tiantong's family, and gave up the right at his fingertips - for his childhood sweetheart, he did sacrifice a lot of things, and regarded money and power as floating clouds.
Although Rentaro is a very awkward person, Ranhara Yeonzhu truly regards Satomi Rentaro as a hero who saves herself, and she feels that if it is Rentaro, she will definitely be able to save more people.
But this idea was shattered not so long ago.
Lan Yuan Yanzhu bit her lip, her cheeks bulging.
Obviously, Rentaro loves Miss Kigen, but because he doesn't want Miss Kigen to fall into the darkness, not only does he not help, but he can't even stand by, but he thinks about her - this kind of behavior may be a betrayal in the eyes of Tiantong Kigen, but in the eyes of Lanyuan Yanzhu, this is the hero she expects.
But...... It's fake.
Not because Rentaro failed to save her companion in the outer zone, but also because she realized the flexibility of Satomi Rentaro's principles.
Because of society's discrimination against the cursed son, Rentaro concealed the identity of the cursed son of Ranhara Enzhu and sent him to school, which is an advantage in Ranyuan Enzhu's opinion, and the partners of justice should have more cunning thinking than anyone else, and they can't stick to the law, and the laws that they don't approve of should not be followed.
This is a little different from the one that kills people and violates the law, and even Miss Kigen doesn't think that her intention to kill and take revenge can be justified, thinking that she will fall into darkness after killing someone.
But there is nothing wrong with being flexible in the matter of the Cursed Son, because the treatment of the Cursed Child is too unreasonable and inhumane.
But when Rentaro says to the cursed son, 'No matter how hard it is in the outer districts, she can't steal', Ranhara Yeonzhu's dream is shattered.
Rentaro is the hero who saved Ranbara Yeonjoo, and he still is, but he is only the hero who saved Ranbara Yeonzhu...... Perhaps, he is just an ordinary person who saved Lanyuan Yanzhu by accident.
The bottom line of a hero can be flexible, but a hero must not have a bottom line, obviously doing the same thing himself, but he is not responsible for others.
Furious, after Ranhara Yeonjoo calmed down and regained consciousness, she fled from Satomi Rentaro's side, and like a group of drunk people automatically looking for their way home, she returned to the outer districts.
Lan Yuan Yanzhu gritted his teeth and kicked the stones in the way away.
She knew that her behavior was very wrong, and Satomi Rentaro was really good to her, and it was really unreasonable to have expectations for 1 others and be disappointed without permission - but it didn't matter.
The important thing is that her friends who were taken away by the police have not been recovered!!
Stealing is not a big deal, but it can be taken away by the police...... God knows what will happen.
Lan Yuan Yanzhu stomped her foot in remorse, she was really carried away by the anger, she was only thinking about escaping at the time......
"Rentaro's words, I'll save her...... Right? Lan Yuan Yanzhu muttered, but she didn't believe what she said.
Rentaro is a good person, and in order not to disappoint himself, Rentaro will definitely go to save the child, provided that she does not leave without permission.
Will Rentaro come to her without danger, or will he choose to save the child who is in danger...... I want to know.
Lan Yuan shook his head, since this is the case, the matter of saving her little friend will be handed over to her, if she can't catch up with her at the first time, it will be difficult to find it, she must borrow the power of others.
Nestled in this outlying area, the power of the other cursed children.
Lan Yuan returned to the sewers with ease, and there is a gathering point for the Cursed Sons, all of whom have their own characteristics, and it is not difficult to find the Cursed Children with the right genes.
Knowing that he had come to the stronghold, Lan Yuan Yanzhu vaguely heard a voice coming from ahead.
The blue-haired, maid-dressed girl was talking to her grandfather, who had taken care of her, and vaguely heard the words 'children'.
Lan Yuan Yanzhu was a little curious, but the task of saving her little friend was pressed on her body, so she ran two steps and rushed out anxiously.
