"I first need to make sure, did Miss Youai use violence?"
"Huh? How is that possible? I'm not a violent man, so I wouldn't do that kind of thing."
After hearing this answer, Sayu breathed a sigh of relief.
Although verbal violence is also a very bad behavior, fortunately the situation has not developed to an irreversible point. Otherwise, once a physical conflict occurs, it must be handed over to the police.
But no matter what, the impact of this incident was bad. This is the first time such a conflict has occurred in the association, and it cannot be treated as if nothing happened.
She softened her tone slightly and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Youai, I just yelled at you."
"Well... it's okay. Sayu-chan isn't really angry at all. It's not even 30% as powerful as when I curse, so I don't mind." Yuai said.
But when being praised by a bipolar patient, Sayu could only feel complicated emotions.
She asked Youai again about the ins and outs, and finally found that Youai's situation was really not suitable for living with others.
The other person has both manic and depressive states at the same time.
When he is chattering, he can talk continuously on his own, but when he is silent, he will not say a word for a long time, causing a great mental burden on others.
You can't ignore her, and you can't accommodate her. You will make yourself very tired if you go back and forth.
And even if ordinary people are like this, let alone those girls who are also wet and sick.
Thinking of this, Shayou considered his words and said slowly:
"I understand. I will arrange a separate room for Miss Youai as soon as possible. Before that, you can live with me."
"What...?" Upon hearing this, Youai looked stunned and tilted her head in surprise, "Aren't you going to drive me away?"
"Huh? Why?"
"No, I understand that I have brought you trouble, so I have been looking for someone online for me to live with, but you actually want to keep me?"
Sayu's eyes changed, "Please don't do that kind of thing! This is not that kind of place. Miss Youai, you should value yourself more."
She had no intention of commenting on other people's concepts of chastity, but this was an organization founded by that person, and she would never tolerate anyone tarnishing it.
The "OSY" association does not restrict everyone's freedom, but violence and bringing unrelated people to the dormitory are still prohibited.
She explained this in advance, and Youai agreed at the time.
"But, that's only if I'm still here, right? If I leave, there's no need to abide by your rules."
"Indeed, if Miss Youai insists on leaving, I will not stop you, but I will not drive you away because of what happened today."
Yuai was even more surprised. The beautiful girl's eyes bloomed with dreamy purple, and she looked at Sayu repeatedly, as if she was looking at some rare animal.
After a moment, she spoke with a subtle expression:
"Although I have also seen your videos on Youtube, I didn't expect you to be more exaggerated than I thought. Why would you do this for a stranger?"
"If Ms. Youai has watched our video, she should know Muzi. We hope that everyone can graduate from here smoothly and return to society with a healthy side."
"Oh~ You're talking about the girl in the first video, right? You guys are really keen on regenerating people~"
"Don't you want a change, Ms. Yuai?"
"Well, to be honest, I just want to find a place to live. As for life, it doesn't matter anymore.
Didn't I say it before? I deliberately overdosed just to kill him, but unfortunately I didn't die several times."
Sayu was suddenly speechless and thought of Yuko in Hokkaido for no reason. Although the two had different experiences, they both chose to use the stupidest method to seek relief.
She clenched her fists gently and moved her lips and said: "I think this is really a sad thing. That kind of choice will only make the people who care about you sad..."
"Hehe, I'm still alive anyway, will Sayu-chan be happy for me?"
"Of course, otherwise Miss Youai and I would never have met."
"Really? I'm obviously just causing trouble for you right now?"
"I once had a friend who did stupid things like Miss Youai, and I would rather she asked me for help in difficult times.
Fortunately, she has a new life now, so Miss Youai will definitely be able to find her goal."
"My goal~"
Youai thought about it for a moment and expressed it quite bluntly.
"For now, I just want to cherish the doctor who prescribed the medicine for me. I really hope he can always be by my side. In addition, it would be great if you would increase my ration~"
"Sorry, I can't guarantee this...doesn't Miss Youai have any other hobbies besides taking drugs?"
"I like to chase stars, especially those in the clouds. If I can get their attention online, I will be extremely happy."
"The man above the clouds...?"
"They are some of my favorite painters and cartoonists. I am half an otaku, so I really hope to interact with them."
Yua said this in an excited tone, showing an unprecedented joyful expression.
This was the first time that Sayu saw her normal side, so he took advantage of the situation and said something.
"I see, this kind of hobby is very good. Some of the people I know also like comics."
"Right? Ah~ don't you think it would be great to have sex with your favorite author? I really yearn for that kind of scene."
"……What???"
The unexpected turn made Sayu's smile freeze, and she almost thought she had heard wrong.
However, Youai didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and even excitedly took out her phone to show it to her.
"That's right~ This person is the number one among the kids I recommend! I even joined his fan club. Although it's a bit shameful to say it, I can't help but feel overwhelmed just by looking at his photo."
"Yes, yes...?"
Facing Yuai who suddenly came up to her, Sayu unconsciously stepped back a little, and then looked at the phone reluctantly.
The next second her expression froze, and a familiar face was clearly reflected in her eyes.
The sharp curved outline is tinged with a dull sense of alienation and indifference, and a pair of black eyes between the silver hair on his forehead are calm, like the cold sunshine in winter, deep and calm.
"This is…………"
"He is my favorite cartoonist, the author of "Chainsaw Man". How about~? He is very handsome, right?"
"...Well, he's very handsome."
"I'll just say it!"
Youai's voice suddenly raised an octave, as if she was ecstatic that the child she pushed was recognized by others, and she continued talking to herself.
"Isn't there a song from "Duango Family" that is very popular on the Internet recently? He composed it for his own game, and even famous idols have covered his song! Don't you think it's awesome?"
"...Well, it's amazing."
"Ahhh~ This look is so in line with my fantasy! In fact, I even sent him some private photos on Twitter, but unfortunately there was no reply at all..."
As she spoke, Yuai became depressed again, and her face changed at a speed that was really without warning.
Sayu suddenly came back to his senses, a faint hint of complexity flashed in his beautiful eyes, and he said with a slight wry smile:
"Well, let's change the topic. I want to confirm, Miss Youai, are you still willing to stay in the association?"
"Then I am definitely willing. After all, I don't have a place to live, and you are willing to provide me with medicine."
"Understood, then I will ask a doctor to come over later to diagnose Miss Youai.
In addition, depending on your situation, we may take some appropriate measures for you under the guidance of a doctor, so please be mentally prepared for this."
Youai shrugged disapprovingly, "It's up to you."
"Okay, then you can come to my room after you pack your luggage." After Sayu finished speaking, he was about to leave, but was stopped by the other party.
"Wait a minute, Sayu-chan."
"Anything else?"
"Um……"
Youai curled her hair with her fingers and spoke in an erratic tone, "About the matter between me and that girl, don't you ask me to apologize to her?"
Sayu turned her face thoughtfully and asked, "Miss Youai, do you want to apologize?"
"Um?"
"Frankly speaking, of course I hope you can apologize to the girl you hurt, but I won't force you to do that. Whether you want to apologize or not is up to Miss Youai."
"...Do you really think so?"
"Well, but I also won't ask the other person to forgive you, because that is also other people's freedom."
"That's really strange. What kind of statement is this? The meaning is unclear." Youai frowned in confusion, not quite understanding the meaning of these words.
"It's very simple, we are free here." Sayu explained softly.
“Because many of us here have experienced oppression from our original families.
If we impose our will on you without authorization, wouldn't we become just like those people? So we won't be like this."
Youai was a little silent: "...I don't understand what you are talking about. I can't understand it at all."
"It's okay. It doesn't matter even if you don't understand it for the time being. Miss Youai will find her goal one day, and everything we do will become meaningful."
At the end of the sentence, a soft smile bloomed on Sayu's face, dazzling and dazzling, even the warm sunshine that filtered in from the window sill behind her seemed dim.
…
Later, the girls who ran away in anger were brought back to the association safely.
And when she heard that Sayu wanted Yua to live with her, Asami, as expected, strongly objected.
"Are you kidding me? No matter what you say, Miss Sayu, it would be too reckless to stay with a drug-addicted bipolar patient all the time!"
Shinjoka, Serizawa Yu, and Shinjo Chiaki didn't speak, but the act of not objecting was a statement.
Sayu deliberately pretended to be stupid and said: "Well...it's not that serious actually. Anyway, the new room can be rented in a week at most, so it doesn't matter."
"Idiot! I have had a careful conversation with the child who ran away. Youai's problem is definitely not as simple as you think. Do you know that she has been secretly buying cough drops to drink?"
"Buying cough drops? Why?"
"How do I know? Anyway, she seems to be drinking it like a drink."
Upon hearing this, Sayu subconsciously looked in a certain direction, and Shinjoka, who met her eyes, sighed in distaste for the trouble.
"Maybe it's because of her addiction to drugs. After all, we have controlled her dosage of other drugs, and since she has no money, she can only take cough drops and cold medicines that are relatively affordable."
"Xiaoxiang is right." Chiaki Shinjo added while assisting her daughter in stretching.
"Drinking cough drops is really popular in Kabukicho, and many of my customers are like this.
There used to be small clinics in Kabukicho that could prescribe any kind of medicine, but as regulations became stricter, people could no longer easily buy medicine from there."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Asami sat next to Sayu and said in an emphatic tone:
"Also! Youai often suffers from withdrawal symptoms in the middle of the night.
Moreover, she seems to have joined a group called "Extended List of Relatives and Friends of Black Mud Tucking", where she exchanges her thoughts and experiences with fellow patients, which is simply outrageous."
After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath and concluded sternly.
"Anyway, I don't agree with you, Sister Sayu, living with her! It would be terrible if you were affected.
Even if you don't think about yourself, at least think about the children downstairs. They all regard you as their support.
Especially Xiaoling, the person she trusts the most is you!"
After the words were settled, the surroundings fell into silence.
Seeing the eyes focused on him, Sayu had the idea of surrender for a moment, but then he immediately stabilized his mind.
Pictures from the past appeared in my mind one after another.
Just like that person once gave her the title of "hero", she wanted to return this honor openly, so she must develop this association.
After thinking about it, Sayu was still unwilling to back down like this, but at the same time she didn't want to let down her friend's concern, so she settled for the next best thing:
"So, as long as I don't live with Yuai, will Asami accept it?"
"Yes, are you willing to change your mind?"
"Hmm... It's not so much Ken, but I don't think I have a choice, right? So I plan to let Yua stay in my room first."
"Hey, what are you going to do about yourself, Sister Sayu?" Serizawa Yu asked.
Sayu said nothing, her eyes wandering towards Doraemon, hesitating on what to say.
Seeing this, Shinjoka didn't know what she was thinking. She curled her lips and said, "I'm not wrong, but isn't Asami's apartment vacant? Aren't you going to live there?"
"Yes!" Mami exclaimed in surprise after being reminded.
"Anyway, I usually stay at home. Are you going to my apartment, Sayu-chan? You said before that you wanted to be closer to Kato-zai, right?"
Shinjoka looked out the window, and before she knew it, the moon was already shining brightly in the sky, decorating the summer night.
She said: "It's too late to move now, right? Miss S can just stay with me tonight."
When Shinjo Chiaki heard this, he looked at his daughter calmly and said nothing.
"OK~ Let's do it then! I'll go to the apartment to tidy up when I get home later. Sister Sayu, just go directly there tomorrow."
Asami snapped her fingers and settled the matter without any explanation.
Sayu looked around in confusion, his mouth opening and closing in confusion as he didn't know what to say.
In the end, it was Serizawa Yu who made the final decision.
"That's good! Sister Sayu, it just so happens that we can leave for Xia I together tomorrow."
