In fact, Ming met her because of a school bullying incident.

Her name was Mizuguchi Saki, and she had always been isolated by her classmates, but one day, those guys did something.

Japanese schools require a change of shoes, that is, indoor shoes.

Mizuguchi couldn't find his shoes that day, but later he finally found them and found that the shoes were...

Happy heaven.

Mizuguchi Saki.

Her classmate used her shoes to make a tomb, and the words of blessing written on it were very dazzling.

At this time, Mizuguchi met Ming.

In fact, before that, Ming also returned to his original school.

This little guy kept pulling at the iron gate of the school.

It seemed like he was joking, but in fact, he understood that he wanted to go to school, but it was a pity that he couldn't do it.

Until the school gate opened and I saw my original classmates again. They...they had new shoes on their feet.

Ming's shoes have not been changed for a long time. Although these shoes are not bad, they are no longer suitable for him.

But Ming never thought that something was wrong with him.

Anyway, my previous friends won’t play with him this time.

and……

"This guy has a smell."

"Oh, you smell it too?"

"Of course."

"Then, what does it smell like?"

"It smells like a food trash can."

"Ha ha……"

This is what happened to Ming. He knew that it was difficult for him to play with his original classmates.

What he didn't expect was that next, he met Shuikou.

Obviously, this girl Saki Mizuguchi doesn't have many friends.

When the two met for the first time, it seemed that they were a bit more open-minded, but both of them could read what was in their hearts from the other's eyes.

Ever since, Mizuguchi and Ming became friends.

But in fact, now Ming's mother has left them.

Several months.

Ming has three younger siblings to take care of.

Mizuguchi had never experienced this before, but she found a partner.

She originally had no friends, but she was able to play with Ming's family.

She is very happy.

Naturally, the situation at Ming's home was also known to Mizukou.

They have no money, and their mother doesn’t know where she is.

Can't find it anywhere.

So, what to do?

"I just went to karaoke with him."

"..."

"Take this money and use it."

Ming slapped Shuikou's hand away, and he just ran away.

Run, run, keep running.

Ming didn't even know why he ran, but he just knew how to run.

It wasn't until my lungs hurt from running that I couldn't help but rub my chest, and then I stopped.

When I turned around, Shuikou had disappeared.

It's dark now.

There are three younger siblings at home, and they still need to be taken care of.

…

"Can I work part-time?"

"Sorry, you can only work if you are 16 years old. How old are you this year?"

"I'm 12 years old."

"Look, this won't work."

"But……"

"I know you have younger siblings at home, but why didn't you call the police?"

"I have reported it to the police before. In that case, I would not be able to be with them."

"That's it...but I still can't help you."

Ming, as an elder brother, it’s not like he hasn’t thought of ways, but unfortunately, he can’t even find a part-time job.

Japanese society is like this, it can be very rigid.

But you can't blame the store staff, they are just doing things according to the law. There are rules in this store, that's it.

As a result, the money for the children became less and less.

…

"Here's the money for you."

"Isn't this what you want to pay for the piano?"

"No."

"this……"

"Take it and use it."

I originally planned to buy a piano for Jingzi. Of course it wouldn't be a good piano, but right now, it's obvious that there are more important things to do.

But what can Kyoko do with this little money?

…

It’s already May, and Tokyo is starting to get hot again.

Another year older, Kurosawa's body is even worse than before.

He was originally a person with many problems, such as epilepsy.

But right now, he still had a smile on his face.

Well, as long as he is not making movies, this old guy always likes to laugh.

However, there is concern in my heart.

"teacher!"

"Oh, you're here."

Tatsuya Nakadai appeared at Akira Kurosawa's house with an excited look on his face, which made the film master very happy.

"Brought it?"

"Yes, I brought it."

"that……"

"Director Iwata is still quite unhappy."

"Hahaha...don't care about him."

"Well, it's true that the film hasn't been edited yet, so that's it..."

"no problem, no problem."

The old man Akira Kurosawa is as happy as a child now.

After all, I don’t know since when, Takeshi Iwata hasn’t produced a decent new film.

The old man Kurosawa Akira was very anxious.
