Chapter 385 The Stolen Children from the Orphanage
?
Sakakihara Suzu did not expect that the dean would ask herself this question.
However, people have been asking about the color of my eyes since childhood, so that everyone who meets me for the first time will curiously ask if I wear colored contact lenses.
So when the dean suddenly asked this question, Sakakihara Suzu didn't think there was anything surprising.
However, when the dean asked this question, all the senior voice actors, agents, and managers in the agency all looked over, making Suzu Sakakibara feel a little stressed.
Suzu Sakakihara faced the dean and tried hard to adjust her mentality. Under everyone's gaze, she responded with a reserved and polite smile:
"That's right."
After hearing the answer, Dean Matsuda's kind face became more surprised, and she stared at Sakakihara Suzu's purple pupils for a few more times.
This made Sakakihara Suzu, who was already being stared at by everyone, a little embarrassed.
Manager Shi Nimura noticed the dean's expression and asked the dean on behalf of Sakakihara Suzu:
"Dean Matsuda, do you think there is something strange about Ling's eyes?"
Probably noticing his gaffe, Matsuda withdrew his gaze from Sakakibara Suzu, lowered his head slightly, first expressed his apology to several people, then put his hands together in front of him, then smiled at Sakakibara Suzu and said:
"It's not anything particularly important. It's just that Miss Ling's eyes remind me of a child in our hospital."
As soon as these words came out, everyone became more curious.
Nanami Ayako, Yoshihara Nao, and the female seniors in Uto Yaegure's office all looked towards Sakakihara Suzu.
Chiten Sakai stared at Sakakihara Suzu.
"Child. What child?" Sakakihara Suzu was stared at in confusion by everyone.
Nimura Shi noticed Sakakihara Suzu's embarrassment, looked at Sakakihara Suzu, then looked at the dean, and took the initiative to bring up the topic to relieve Suzu:
"Dean Matsuda, does that child also have purple eyes?"
"That's right." Dean Matsuda nodded, "And the child's eye color is very similar to Miss Sakakibara's."
"."
Hearing this, Sakakihara Suzu's senior couldn't restrain his inner complaints at all.
Yoshihara Nao got close to Sakakihara Suzu and nudged her with her elbow. She was very affectionate and showed a tiger-toothed smile:
"We, Suzu-chan, didn't come out of an orphanage, right?"
"Nao, what are you talking about with Suzu?" Nanami Ayako, as the oldest voice actor in the agency, wears more mature makeup and has a more stable attitude when going out, and reaches out to stop her from talking nonsense.
"Senior, I was just joking with Suzu~"
Uto Yaegu, who was dressed more neutrally, waved his hands habitually and said helplessly: "You can't be joking like that."
Chitiano Sakai was very curious, she weakly interjected, raised her hand and asked the dean:
"Dean Matsuda, I saw someone on the Internet saying that there are less than 500 people with purple eyes in the world. Meeting one in normal life is a very rare thing, and it is basically impossible to meet the second one.
”
"Well," Dean Matsuda nodded in full approval, his voice unhurried, "That's why I care so much."
Yoshihara Nao held Sakakihara Suzu's slender arms, smiled in her ear and said:
"I'm serious, Ling, do you want you to get to know that kid? Meet him as a sister or something. It's rare to see someone with the same eye color as you. Oh, no, I've never seen anyone with the same eye color as Ling.
people."
Sakakihara Suzu smelled the perfume on her senior, "Senior, what kind of sister do you think you are? I, I'm not very familiar with you."
"Hey, what you said is wrong. Aren't we here to celebrate Children's Day with the children today? Isn't it our job today to get to know the children?"
"That's right."
Sakai Chitian asked the dean: "What about the child the dean mentioned?"
Dean Matsuda sighed with a look of regret: "The child is lost."
"Lost?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned over again.
"Yes, it was lost shortly after birth."
"."
Yoshihara Nao put her hand to cover her mouth and looked at Sakakihara Suzu.
The meaning of this look is self-evident.
"That's not true."
Under everyone's gaze, Sakakihara Suzu quickly retorted.
She didn't know why, but she felt a little disgusted with this.
She doesn't hate orphans, but she doesn't like her current identity being denied.
I am Sakakihara Suzu.
Suzu Sakakihara has lived with this name for more than ten years.
My mother is Miwa Sakakibara and my brother is Raku Sakakihara, so I am not an orphan.
If I really came out of the orphanage, then what would my identity be in the past ten years?
But rather than being angry, Sakakihara Suzunori didn't take what the dean said to heart at all.
Because I’m not the only one with purple eyes.
The neighbor sister named Hanamaru on our floor also has purple eyes.
Although this is a bit of a coincidence, it is not impossible in this world.
As long as it happens, it is reality.
While Sakakihara Suzu was thinking about these things, Nanami-senpai asked the dean about why the child was lost.
"The child was stolen."
"Stolen?"
Sakai Chitianno: "Then the police didn't find it back?"
Dean Matsuda shook his head silently.
"It was the rainy season, it rained every day, and there were frequent thunderstorms. I had just gotten married at that time, and my husband and I would prepare dinner for the children on time at seven o'clock every night. I remember that my husband and I, and
The children were eating together when my grandfather suddenly walked in holding a baby girl.
"The baby girl looked like she was just born, wrinkled, and the umbilical cord had just been cut. It was thundering and raining outside, and she kept crying in my grandpa's arms. Through his eyes, I knew that this was another abandoned child.
Eh."
Dean Matsuda probably recalled the unhappy past and thought of the abandoned children one by one, and there was a strong sadness in his words.
Sakakihara Suzu can understand the dean at this time.
As the director of an orphanage, I have seen so many abandoned children in my life. How many children have been given up by their parents
They either have some congenital disease or some congenital organ deficiency.
They have been alone since birth and can only envy what others have.
“After taking over the child from grandpa, my husband and I stopped eating, found new swaddling clothes for the child, fed her some milk powder with warm water, and then gave her a physical examination.
Fortunately, apart from being a little weak, she is a very healthy and beautiful baby girl.
"The head is quite big, the hands are quite strong, and the eyes are a pair of pure and beautiful purple that I have never seen before."
Dean Matsuda gestured with his hand to show the size of the baby girl in his arms. After putting his hand down, he looked into Sakakihara Suzu's eyes and laughed.
"After the child entered the orphanage, she was the youngest child in our family at that time. The children took good care of her and regarded her as their sister. I remember that the child was really good at eating. She had to feed more than 20 people a day.
times.
"Then she was stolen away by a thief on the third day."
"My husband and I called the police, and the police came to investigate, but found no clues about the baby or traces of the suspect. The case has been delayed again and again, gradually turning into a mystery and unsolved."
What the dean said was just a brief story.
This story can be connected to Sakakibara Suzu's body, and it only has one characteristic [purple eyes].
If there are so many coincidences in the world, Suzu Sakakihara will not have time to apply this identity to herself.
After others heard it, they just regarded it as a past event and expressed regret about it.
*
After everyone from the seiyuu agency met with the dean, they officially entered the orphanage with the dean leading the way.
There is a spacious yard in the courtyard, surrounded by shrubs and various flowers and plants, with several large trees separated by a certain distance.
On the lawn in the middle, there are slides and swings similar to those found in kindergartens.
There are many children of various ages playing on it.
Some look lively, while others look very quiet. For example, the little girl in a short skirt standing under the tree, staring at the ground, Sakakihara Suzu can't tell what she is doing.
Sakakihara Suzu followed the dean and secretly discussed it with Sakai Chitano, who also guessed it.
However, the conversation between the two was heard by Dean Matsuda who was walking with several other seniors in front. She stopped, looked at the little girl and said:
"The child's name is Qianyi. She has congenital heart disease. Because her family is not rich, her parents divorced because of her. She still cares about her mother after she married her. Her mother was the kind of person who was idle at the beginning. No.
She would go to work. Later, in order to earn money for her surgery, her mother joined a gang of thieves and committed many crimes in a row. She was caught stealing from the home of a steel factory owner and was sentenced to nine years in prison.
"Qianyi often stands under the tree. She is counting ants. Her mother told her that when she counts 50,000 ants, they can meet."
The dean is just stating the facts.
But Sakakihara Suzu sounds particularly complicated.
A mother is idle and doesn't like working, but she knows how to care about her children. Even though her daughter has an incurable heart disease, she doesn't give up.
But the strange thing is that her way of saving the child was through immoral behavior such as stealing.
This made Suzu Sakakihara feel that this mother was both bad and not so bad.
Sakai Chitano asked: "Then Dean, is Chii-chan still suffering from heart disease?"
"Yes," Dean Matsuda replied in a kind voice, "She will have surgery soon, and she is still taking medicine to relieve heart pressure every day."
Yoshiwara Nao: "What about the surgery fee? The cost of surgery for congenital heart disease should be quite large, right?"
"Of course the orphanage can only pay for it, and her mother can't afford it at all."
Chitiano Sakai, "Is every child like this?"
"Yes."
Sakakihara Suzu: "But Director, there shouldn't be that much money in the orphanage, right? What should we do now?"
"Ask for help," Dean Matsuda said, staring at the little girl counting ants under the shade of a tree. "Medical organizations and charities go to the streets to ask for donations, and go to the government to apply for financial support. As long as they can get money, they have to be shameless.
Go and give it a try. In the past, when we were too poor to have any money, we would let the children make some things by hand and then sell them in the market. They would sell as much as they could. The houses in the orphanage were also sorted out and rented out."
It sounds like being a dean is really difficult
If a child doesn’t have money for surgery, he really has no choice but to “beg” everywhere, right?
Not to mention that there are so many children in the orphanage, and their living expenses, education expenses, and medical expenses all need to be borne by the orphanage.
Sakakihara Suzu didn't know the actual situation in the orphanage, but just thinking about it made her feel embarrassed.
The group followed the director and visited the entire orphanage.
A place for children to sleep, a place for children to study, and a place for children to play
We all went to have a look.
Because it was just work, the producer at the office, Tanaka-san, followed the whole process with a camera.
On the way, Suzu Sakakihara found that many children came to say hello to the dean, and some even said hello to herself.
Some children younger than me kept shouting around me, "Rin-chan! Suzu-chan!" with such enthusiasm that Sakakihara Suzu was ashamed.
Then we officially started getting along with the children and asked them what their dreams were.
The children were very enthusiastic and surrounded Sakakihara Suzu, and they answered energetically, "I want to be a voice actor like Suzu!"
This sentence.
Sakakihara Suzu was in a daze after hearing this.
Have you become someone else’s dream?
In fact, I am no longer the miserable newcomer who gnaws on the steamed buns bought by my brother every morning and stays up late at night to practice my voice with anime?
In the blink of an eye, I seem to have become much stronger.
He is also a successful person, and he is also someone who is admired and envied by others.
In the orphanage, she met many children who said they wanted to be themselves and have themselves as their goals in life. Suzuma Sakakihara felt that she was touched.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
You must know that since childhood, I have always been the type to be looked down upon.
He is clumsy at doing things, clumsy at studying, and clumsy at exercise.
I was always laughed at by my classmates in school.
Once upon a time, did you become someone else’s dream?
Because of this, Sakakihara Suzu got along more and more harmoniously with the children in the orphanage.
Sometimes they are so happy that they don't look like children without parents.
I am always smiling, smiling when playing and smiling when eating.
In order to respond to the children's wishes, Sakakihara Suzu also used her own various voices to sing some lines from the animation.
There were a few little boys who innocently said they wanted to hear Hidakaho confess to the male protagonist in the anime, which made Suzu Sakakihara question whether today's children are too precocious?
But it is certain that these children really like voice actors.
There are indeed a few junior high school girls asking themselves how to practice their voices.
Today is Children's Day.
There are also performances prepared by the children themselves in the orphanage.
Suzu Sakakihara and the voice actors from the agency watched one by one. After the performance, they played a chasing game with the children. One of them acted as a "ghost", chasing other children and trying to catch them.
The other seniors are very good at playing with children, especially Yoshiwara-senpai, who is particularly popular with children.
Tianno is a bit clumsy. When he was a "ghost", he saw children who were not hiding in plain sight and was too embarrassed to expose them.
In fact, by the second half, Sakakihara Suzu felt that this was no longer work, and everyone was having fun.
At least Sakakihara Suzu never thought that one day she would actually be able to play hide-and-seek and ghost games.
Playing hide-and-seek with Raku Sakakibara was the most boring thing in the past. He could always guess where he was hiding.
Ghost hunting game even more!
You can't catch him as a ghost, and you can't run away from him as a ghost.
He is better as an older brother. He is stable and reliable. You can go to him for anything you want to do.
If you want to eat snacks, you can ask him to carry you to Cuntou to buy them.
Every time she was on his back, Sakakihara Suzu felt very powerful. Also, she was particularly happy that someone would always pass delicious food to herself on his back.
My brother carries me and brings food.
So good.
Wrong.
What do you want him to do?
We agreed not to think about him for the next few days.
Sakakihara Suzu lamented her childhood, recalling the past scenes and how someone looked now, and her face turned red again.
She patted her cheek, washed her hands from the bathroom, and walked out.
This is the first floor of the main building of the orphanage, and the director's office is also here.
On the wall of the corridor is the history of Xingyuan Orphanage.
There are photos hanging on it, starting from the photo of Senior Dean Matsuda and Dean Matsuda, to a dozen or so group photos taken this year.
Every child who has ever lived here is on it.
Suzu Sakakihara pinched her chin and carefully searched the photos for the children she just met today. Every time she recognized one and read out their name, she felt a little happy.
Until Sakakihara Suzu saw a small photo hanging in the lower right corner of the photo wall.
Of all the photos, this is the only one that is not a group photo.
In the photo are the recently married Matsuda couple.
In the hands of young Dean Matsuda, there was an infant child. She was obviously just born and was so small that she couldn't even drink much milk powder. But Suzu Sakakihara still felt that she was looking straight at him with those purple eyes.
The lens.
Even though the photo is slightly yellowed due to age, the purple pupils that look like stars are still bright and shiny
Suzu Sakakihara was fascinated by it without even realizing it.
"Why does this child look so much like Ah Ling when you were a child?"
This sudden and familiar voice startled Sakakihara Suzu, who was frowning deeply in the photo. She quickly turned around and immediately saw a person who shouldn't be here.
Raku Sakakibara, dressed in a casual summer outfit, touched his chin and was looking carefully at the old photos on the wall.
When Suzu Sakakihara saw that extremely familiar face, she was stunned for a moment, and then questioned loudly, "Why are you here?"
"Why can't I be here," Raku Sakakihara replied casually. He was obviously more concerned about the baby in the photo on the wall and stared at her for a long time. "Really, it looks very similar."
