Chapter 12: How is a friend so inconvenient?

Ormer likes to socialize without burdens, and the definition of 'friends' in this social definition is like the spice of life.

Yes, but it must be easy to get along.

Because he is a person who is very afraid of trouble, if you want to set a life creed for him, it is a life that does not need the participation and participation of others.

To be self-sufficient, self-circulating, both material and spiritual—this was his ideal, with expectations that were impossible to achieve.

For many people, having no friends of the same age for more than ten years from childhood to adulthood is enough to be called torture, loneliness should be a disease, which can corrode the will and even the spirit of the patient, so that people suffer from the psychological problems of inferiority and self-esteem.

But Omer's question didn't give him time to feel the loneliness.

Because since he was a child, his life has been full of troubles.

Non-existent parents, strange companions in the welfare home, human books taught him to help others, to share the troubles of adults, so he was the elder brother when he was in the welfare home, and under his command was a group of younger siblings with the signs of demons and monsters.

The most lively and stubborn age of a person is the childhood, the naughty child and the power and tendencies of the bloodline, in which Omer does not look at all like a child with demonic blood, he is well-behaved and obedient like a human, and he does not fit in with other children.

Usually it starts like this, and then it's time for the clique to bully.

Especially little Omer, a child who has no horns and tails, no claws and fangs, and looks very weak, stays in a group of small demons.

But the actual development is a fast-forward drama made in heaven:

- Little Omer directly relied on the power given by the aunts and uncles of the welfare home, and managed those little devils of the same age.

It wasn't that he applied on his own initiative, but the decisions of the adults who had watched little Omer for a long time.

is not only because of his special background, but also because of the special he revealed early.

That special hobby is called "observation".

Observe the racial characteristics of those little devils around you, and observe the differences in their performance in different moods, different activities, and different mentalities.

He doesn't take the initiative to mention it, but occasionally when an adult can't find a child, and when other friends gossip about where the other party might be, he will also join in, and the accuracy of the answers he gives is gradually improving.

Because most of the little devils are ridiculously bearish, the frequency of disappearances is also commonplace, so little Omer's behavior inevitably attracts the attention of adults.

They began to pay attention, and then became more and more concerned about the child's condition.

Then I went from discovering it to gradually determining that the child clearly had no warm relationship with anyone, but he did grasp other people's behaviors, ideas, and habits little by little.

Although children's minds are simple and not difficult to figure out, children are also easy to think of one out of the other, and it is difficult for adults to figure out what children are thinking, but he can.

Maybe it's because of the understanding of the age range, or maybe it's just a hunch, but in short, the adults have discovered his potential.

Immediately afterwards, it became a matter of course to give him duties such as 'squad leader', because he could not be allowed to grow up savagely, after all, to be honest, this child's talent was quite terrifying.

Even if you are young, you don't have a thorough grasp of the situation of all the children in the orphanage, and you often make mistakes in guessing the behavior of adults, but it is a little creepy to consciously carry out this behavior.

No one guided him, no one ordered him, he did this in silence, but he did nothing, only a word or two when others needed help - at least this guidance seemed to be a good child, not to be left to be free-range like other children, and it needed more attention from adults.

By the way, 'take advantage of' the child's kindness and assign him more goals to stabilize that position.

It is based on the concept of adults that little Omer carries rights and obligations corresponding to rights out of thin air.

Since then, he has been in trouble.

Even if an uncle with dark eyes suddenly came to the welfare institute and let his uncles and aunts receive him solemnly, he couldn't be idle after no one assigned him goals and tasks for a while.

Because it's called Morrison. Linton's, lifeless uncle with dark circles under his eyes, looks like he will die of overwork even if he is not turned to gray by the sun.

He's all over the place!

Little Omer even felt that living by his side was more tiring than being in a welfare home, so that he could not continue to observe humans quietly, and had to run around to improve his livelihood, forced to further develop his natural abilities, and even took the initiative to contact some people and things that he would not have been in contact with.

Under such an extremely hard growth trajectory, he will not consider the proposition of loneliness or not.

On the surface, he is perfunctory with this kind of inquiry, and he is thinking about how to do today's discount and special, which is his norm.

Child labor can't find a way out, and the gray area is too risky, so how can you accumulate savings? Why don't you consider betting on horses? Ah, it's so troublesome to bet on horses, and if you want to win, you have to study those horse racing girls... Irritation, the destruction of the world is over, why are there no monsters to destroy the earth?

Only at this time, he really looks like a child worthy of his age.

There is a saying in the Far East that a person who has an overly fulfilling real life is a kind of cash charge.

is already a super-university-level current charge of Omer. Linton, longing for a plant-like self-sufficiency (x)

But he's a person.

At least the dominant gene is the individual.

And man is a very pretentious creature, often swaying in front of certain choices.

In the past ten years, Omer will neglect many things because of excessive busyness, and will try to reduce the extra physical and mental burden on himself, but when the living situation gradually improves, the family pressure gradually eases, and the leisure time is increasing, Omer will also have some longings that he did not have in the past.

For example, friends who can trouble each other.

Just as he expected from 'Keliff', and just as Bizer is influencing him further.

So he was able to accept David's invitation, after all, he had seen the sincerity of the other party.

The invitation was somewhat 'social death', and it was also thanks to the college entrance examination that the crowd was more attractive, and there were not many guests in the café, which avoided the possibility of this punk young man directly starting 'Sianweistan' to escape from reality.

And the other party's state of starting over again also touched him a little.

Maybe in terms of life attitude, I should loosen the strings.

.

.

"It's really youthful, it's really fantastical, I've always felt that the element of youth is insulated from your stinky little ghost, and now it seems that I should really believe in the existence of miracles."

At the dining table at home, Morrison sighed faintly.

Compared with the rule of 'food and sleep, and silent', Omer's family is obviously more inclined to the culture of 'social animal wine table', and it is normal to eat and chat.

During the meal, the TV was also showing the travel program prepared by the Tianmen City Channel, and Omer's main attention was also there, already thinking about planning a travel route, as if he was holding the chance to win the college entrance examination.

Morrison would have to choke a few words on weekdays, but who made the topic raised by Omer more enjoyable this time? Based on the content of his work, he also has an impression of the edge runner mercenary team, a group of mercenary teams registered by the traversers, I heard that a core member was picked up in the past two days, but I didn't expect that the member also had such a story with Omer.

It seems that there will be frequent contact in the future, and cooperation is inevitable... Morrison was thinking about it, but he didn't plan to dictate his adopted son's interpersonal interactions.

He has never had an advantage in looking at people, and the shadow of being pointed at by Ormo several times is still there, and whoever is pointing fingers is not certain.

But only in today's response to this matter, he has a rare opportunity to laugh at the other party's youth:

"So everyone else broke through the shame and befriended you, in the face of this kind of sincerity that is only in sports competitions, after you agreed, you just put it there and chatted until Bi Ze's kid is gone?"

"Didn't you spend an hour in the arcade?" Ormo turned around and took two bites of food, "What are you expecting?" ”

"Introduce each other to relatives and friends!" Morrison exclaimed, "And have a heart-to-heart with each other!" ”

"There is time for the holidays, and I think too much about what I want to do, just take my time, and don't forget that I am still in the college entrance examination."

Omer raised his hand and beckoned the standby terminal light screen on the side, and drew a few simple lines on it, I am afraid that only he himself could recognize at a glance what route it was.

"You don't see any tension in the college entrance examination."

"Maybe I'm nervous and can't see it from the outside."

"......" Morrison was silent for a moment when he heard this, thinking that this was really indescribable.

Twelve years ago was the most difficult time for the family, and he watched the child make a list of dense plans to improve the situation, but he didn't care, and he didn't think that the child could really realize it.

At that time, if little Omer could reveal some of the fragility that a child should have, he would also be a little touched.

But the kid didn't.

The kid has always been very able to hold on, and he can hold on until he can't tell whether he is hard or really capable, so the touch that can't be expressed accumulates ten years later, and from time to time emerges from the other party's casual chat.

At this point, Omer glanced at him and continued to mark the route:

"You're not going to feel guilty about yourself, are you?"

Morrison held back for a moment, and said viciously: "Eat your food honestly, stinky little ghost, no one will regret planning or something." ”

"No, no, no? Wouldn't anyone really be caught up in memories and feel guilty? ”

"Are you old? Morrison, has he become the kind of old man who will sit in the yard and suddenly cry? ”

Morrison was silent for a moment, and warned with a gloomy face: "... If you don't concentrate on eating, I'll take a leave of absence tomorrow to pick you up and wear my most confident midsummer beach suit. ”

“……”

When Omer heard this, he withdrew his hand and ate in silence.

He's still quite embarrassed.

And Morrison has no joy of victory, and even a little regret.

I regret that I took the suggestion of the director of the welfare home so decisively to further develop the observation of the child.

In terms of insight and inner thinking, he is already invincible among his peers, and even trying to touch the boundaries of the elderly.

Morrison was more worried about the kid having no friends than being dangerous.
