The fire came and went quickly. The search and rescue personnel found a charred body in the director's office. Through the clothing and identification of relatives and friends, the identity of the deceased was quickly determined to be the director of the orphanage.

However, according to several employees who got up in the morning to exercise, they clearly saw Ms. Asparagus on a business trip early in the morning. They didn't know why she died here … As for the other victims, except for a few who really died in the sea of fire, most of them were choked to death by the thick smoke. This was the most common way to die in a fire.

This incident was so big that even the news reporters came to report it.

Many enthusiastic citizens donated materials, hoping to help a little, but there were also people who called for an investigation behind the incident. How could an orphanage suddenly catch fire?

And so many people died!

Finally, the fire rescue team held a press conference. After the investigation of the scene, they determined that the cause of the fire was a gas leak in the kitchen. They were still investigating the specific cause.

But this had nothing to do with Gamma Ceti for the time being.

After attending the sad and solemn memorial service, she and the other surviving children would be assigned to different places nearby. Gamma Ceti learned that she was assigned to a new orphanage. It was a privately sponsored orphanage, and there was still some difference between it and the previous public orphanage.

But before going to the new home, Gamma Ceti still had one thing to do.

After she spoke to the teacher in charge of the temporary management, she walked out of the memorial service. Sure enough, she saw a man standing at the door smoking silently. There were several cigarette butts stuck in the white sand on the side of the trash can.

"You came." Kota Aizawa saw her come out, pinched the cigarette butt, and said without lifting his eyelids.

"Yes, Mr. Aizawa."

At first, Orumit asked her if she had any wishes. If he could help, he would try his best to help.

Gamma Ceti asked first, and then said that she wanted to go to the hospital in two days to see the survivors who were receiving treatment, but it was difficult for a child to go to the hospital without an adult accompanying her.

Orumit of course agreed to this small matter. He wanted to go himself, but the business of saving the world was too busy, so he said that he would find a friend to accompany the survivors in his place.

As a result, Kota Aizawa was assigned to this task.

However, this idle guy didn't have any objections. Anyway, he just treated it as doing a good deed and going for a drive.

Because Gamma Ceti had called in advance, she knew that the professional hero was on leave today and could drive her to the hospital to visit the rescued survivors.

"Well, Mr. Aizawa, thank you very much for coming with me today."

She thanked him politely. This was the traditional etiquette of the Orientals.

"You're welcome.

Have you reported this to your teacher? "

"Yes, I've already reported it.

The teacher also hopes to get your signature through me. "

As the little girl spoke, she obediently handed over the signature board and pen.

Kota Aizawa: "…"

"Alright then."

After he signed the board, he yawned and slowly said, "My car is in the parking lot, follow me closely."

Kota Aizawa drove the same brown car that he drove to the fire scene the other day. It wasn't a big brand and was probably just an ordinary car. However, Gamma Ceti didn't mind this and that. She understood a long time ago: Before you have some qualifications, there was no reason to criticize other people's things.

The little brat opened the back door and climbed in. She obediently and silently fastened the seat belt. The reason why she didn't sit in the front passenger seat was that according to the traffic law, minors couldn't sit in the front passenger seat.

[I'm such a law-abiding person.]

Gamma Ceti thought to herself.

She saw Aizawa look back at her. He must have confirmed that she was seated properly before he started the car.

On the way to the hospital, because it was already past the rush hour, it wasn't crowded.

"Why do you suddenly want to see those survivors?" Aizawa casually put his hand on the steering wheel and casually asked.

"Actually, it's because a teacher who has been taking care of me is also in the hospital, so … I want to see."

As the little girl spoke, she shyly smiled. Unfortunately, Kota Aizawa didn't turn around to see this scene. Naturally, he couldn't accept the cute light wave's gaze.

"So it's like this, it seems that your relationship is really good."

"Yes, yes, before when I was bullied by the boys in the courtyard, it was she who helped me educate them."

Thinking of Teacher Xiaomei and the few naughty brats that had been KO-ed by him, Shi Tianyi couldn't help but puff up his cheeks like a little hamster playing.

She didn't know if those idiots who were beaten up by her survived or not.

Hearing this, Aizawa was a bit speechless. Based on the other rescued children's evaluation of you – "That guy with the eyes like a devil!

Super fierce! "– There are still people who can bully you?

But ridicule aside, Kota Aizawa had been a professional hero for so many years, he also knew how painful and discriminated it was to have no personality.

To be honest, a child like Gamma Ceti who was fearless in the face of danger and could control the situation was super rare.

This was the real reason why he readily agreed to Orumit's driver's half-day tour: As seniors, what's wrong with occasionally helping the younger generation with growth potential?

Because the road from the memorial to the hospital was still a bit far, Kota Aizawa chatted with the little girl along the way, and this kind of behavior has a professional term called "awkward conversation". Fortunately, Gamma Ceti wasn't an ordinary person. As an awkward conversation master, she was able to pick up the topic thrown by the other party, so the atmosphere on the road was quite pleasant.

"Where are you going next?

Is there a list of names? "

"Yes, it's out." Gamma Ceti recalled the allocation list announced this morning. "I'll be assigned to the Aomori Welfare Institute."

"Ah … That's a private welfare institute. I know that there's a big boss who is doing good deeds behind the scenes.

Although the scale isn't as big as the public one you were in before, the hardware and so on are still okay. You'll have a place to go at least. "

Coincidentally, there was a red light in front of them. Aizawa stepped on the brakes and stopped, turning to look at her. "Hey, Shishi, are you disappointed that you weren't adopted by those caring families?"

In fact, after the fire, some caring people volunteered to adopt some surviving children. Although the number was not large, it still aroused the envy of other children.

However, Gamma Ceti thought about it and immediately shook her head. "No. I'm used to being alone.

I'm used to being alone. If I'm adopted by someone, I won't be used to it. "

Kota Aizawa stared at her for a few seconds. There was a complicated look in his eyes. In the end, he said nothing and turned his head to drive — because the green light was about to turn green.

Gamma Ceti narrowed her eyes. Of course, she knew what the look in his eyes meant. It was … sympathy.

But what do I have to sympathize with?

She couldn't help but feel a little confused.

She was a child who was abandoned by her biological parents in this world. If she had no personality before, at least she had a new one now. Even if she wasn't adopted, she could still continue to live a carefree life. Moreover, she knew what kind of job she could take in the future and wouldn't starve to death. Wasn't that enough? Why did this uncle sympathize with her?

If she encountered any problems, she would ask. Anyway, the hospital wasn't far from here. If she was chased out of the car at the last minute, she could walk there by herself.

So Gamma Ceti immediately asked, "Were you sympathizing with me just now?"

Aizawa was a little surprised that she could see that. However, to protect her pride and sensitivity, he chose to lie. "No."

"You're lying."

"No, it's a white lie," the adult skillfully quibbled.

"… But the teacher said that lying is the behavior of bad children." The girl frowned. "Mr. Aizawa, you're definitely lying to me, right?

Your eyes were clearly saying something like 'no one is going to adopt this poor little thing'. "

"Oh, I didn't expect you to see through it …" Kota Aizawa didn't deny it. He simply laughed softly. "But only children care about whether I'm lying or not. Adults only care about the results."

He had thought that Shi Shuan would be unhappy for a while, but who knew that she would smile happily.

"Yes, I'm still a child!

I'm still young. I'm not at the age where I'm worried about marriage like Mr. Aizawa! "

Aizawa was speechless.

F * ck, what is this brat talking about?

Was her previous caution and restraint all an act?

"I'm not at the age where I'm worried about marriage!

And if we're talking about marriage, it's someone else who's going to marry me! "

"May I ask where that 'someone else' is, Mr. Aizawa?"

"… Do you want to get off the car and walk to the hospital?

Hmm? "

Faced with this kind of verbal threat, Gamma Ceti chose to admit defeat. After all, there was a limit to joking.

"Okay, I'm sorry, I was wrong. A handsome man like Mr. Xiangze definitely won't have to worry about marriage!"

"Why are you so happy in the latter half of your sentence?

And I feel like you're mocking me? "

"No, no, I wouldn't dare to mock you.

Illusion, it's all an illusion. "

"I'm warning you. Kid, don't quarrel with the driver …"

The two of them casually bickered as they drove the car into the hospital's underground parking lot.

But once they got off the car, Gamma Ceti immediately put away her playful mood. She ran to the front desk of the inpatient department and asked for Teacher Xiao Mei's room number. She was ready to drag Kota Aizawa who was walking lazily to the elevator.

"Hey, wait, wait for me here. You're not allowed to go up alone."

Aizawa suddenly noticed something, then he walked out of the lobby, leaving the kid standing alone with a face full of question marks.

Not long after, he came in with two bags of fruits and forced one bag into the little girl's hand.

"Take it."

The man with a beard looked sleepy, but the words he said were very warm, "You can't go empty-handed when you visit a patient."

Gamma Ceti looked down at the few fresh apples in the paper bag and was a little embarrassed … In fact, she really wanted to go to the ward to eat some fruits.

No choice, as an orphan with no one to rely on, she didn't have any extra pocket money. She could only shamelessly go to the hospital to give some encouragement.

"Thank you."

After entering the elevator, she said in a low voice.

If he didn't see that Aizawa was a person who didn't care about small problems, this guy wouldn't have deliberately said that.

Aizawa opened his eyes a little and glanced at her condescendingly, "You don't have to thank me. For the last time, I don't have to worry about marriage … No, I don't have to worry about marriage!"

Gamma Ceti: "…"
