Chapter 102 Asking for Nothing
"When I grow up, I want to be invincible."
This is the ideal declaration made by Gen Satake when he was seven years old.
Sister Toyama has no objection to this, because other children's dreams are more secondary: 'I want to be a Gundam pilot', 'I want to be Ultraman', 'I want to develop a potion so that beautiful girls don't have to poop', 'I want to be Sister Yuanshan's groom'...are all unrealistic fantasies.
Toyama Qin patiently explained to them: 'Gundam does not exist, but the pilot is as handsome as the Gundam driver', 'Ultraman is a tokusatsu drama, and the director who makes the tokusatsu drama is even more powerful', 'The one in your room is It's strange that the H book was confiscated', 'When you grow up, I will already be Obasan'...
Finally, she said with a smile on her face and a gentle tone: "We are all talented people, and we will definitely become useful talents to society in the future."
She has always taught children this way. The welfare home exists because of the love of this society. I hope that when you grow up, you will help others within your ability, spread your love, and give back to this society...
"I don't want it."
Satake Gen thinks everyone is ridiculous. How can he be a pilot if he is short-sighted? How can someone who is color blind become a director? A guy who reads H books every day still wants to be a scientist? When he grows up, Sister Yuanshan will be menopausal, okay?
Once something is desired, there will be a weakness.
Sister Yuanshan is the same. She is longing for intangible things and realizes the value of her life by taking care of her children.
He expressed his thoughts in public, and also revealed the hiding place of another pornographic book, which made everyone look at each other angrily. That night, the children covered him with a quilt and beat him violently until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.
He cried and complained to Sister Toyama, who criticized all the children. From then on, everyone began to isolate Satake Xuan.
"That guy is just a weirdo. He always likes to poke at people's shortcomings."
It’s not just children who think this, but adults too. None of the nursing staff in the orphanage wanted to see Zuo Zhuxuan, because he would point out the other person's pain points such as his unhappy marriage, mortgage pressure, and early loss of a child.
Satake Xuan didn't do it for any other reason. He saw through it and wanted to say it out. He was so cheap at the age of seven or eight.
In his early years, he often imagined that his life was a TV series, where everyone was an actor and there were hidden cameras where he couldn't see. When the sun sets, he kicks stones and stands alone in the yard. The audience sitting in front of the TV will hear the narration: 'Gen Satake was born lonely. This talent is both a gift from God and a curse from the devil.' ……
Satake Xuan felt that it didn't matter. When the day came that he didn't need to ask anyone for help, he would be invincible. No one can use his weakness to blackmail him, no one can make him do what he doesn't want to do.
Trading loneliness for freedom is a good deal for him.
"Axuan, you are very talented. Maybe you can become a good policeman in the future. You can spot the weaknesses of bad guys at a glance."
After Toyama Qin comforted him, he earnestly educated him: "You must be a useful person to society in order to have a place in this society."
Satake Xuan sneered at the second sentence, but listened to the first sentence. After he became an adult, he took the civil service examination and successfully entered the police academy.
On the day of graduation, the mobile team came to recruit students, and senior officials from the Metropolitan Police Department also came to inspect. The instructor called him into the office and asked him how many students he saw on the way here. Zuo Zhuxuan said four without hesitation, one was greedy for money, one was lustful, one was lustful, and one was Ah Ji. The instructor was very satisfied and asked him if he wanted to be an undercover agent. Of course Satakeken said he didn't want to. Even if the superior responded with affection and promised to at least be promoted to the police department after his undercover career was over, he didn't waver at all. He said he didn't want to, just that he didn't want to.
As long as he has no weaknesses, no one can force him to do something he doesn't want to do.
The more stubborn he is, the more senior officials of the Metropolitan Police Department value him. People who are not moved by external objects are more precious than giant pandas.
Kaga Keito personally came to persuade: "The economy is getting worse and worse now, and that welfare facility will be closed soon. Satake-kun doesn't want his younger brothers and sisters to live on the streets, right? There are also Toyama childcare workers. If they are unemployed at this age, how can they be employed?" If it’s not good, it will go bankrupt, and insurance, pension, and medical premiums will be cut off..."
Satake Xuan was silent.
He thought this was the last time, the last time he wanted to ask for anything. After finishing this job and paying off the debt to the orphanage, he would owe nothing, and his only weakness would be cut off.
After being expelled from the police academy, Gen Satake joined the Inagawa Society. He wears a flashy suit, has the word loyalty tattooed on his body, and is responsible for collecting loan sharks.
He had a good brain and soon reached the middle level of the branch, where he was responsible for helping with accounting and lending.
On an ordinary afternoon, when he was doing bookkeeping at the company, a customer came to ask for a loan. The younger brother led the other person through the door. He said hello casually as always. When he looked up, he saw that it was an acquaintance - the classmate who loved to hide pornographic books. Now he has found true love and plans to get married. He wants a loan to pay for the down payment and arrange a wedding.
Satake Xuan called him a fool. He told him when he was a child that reading pornographic books every day would have a fart future? Now he has to give up his future for a woman and create weaknesses for himself. He is simply stupid as hell!
He kicked people out without giving them a penny.

After a while, another acquaintance came. The other party heard that Satake Xuan would be responsible for lending in Inagawa, so he came to plead for mercy. He claimed that he was making a movie that would be a hit at the box office as soon as it was released, but unexpectedly the investors withdrew their funds midway, so he wanted to borrow money to support the movie until it was completed.
Gen. Satake looked at the half-finished film he shot. On the black and white screen, a few men in leather jackets were fighting around, and the plot was a piece of shit. So he repeated what he said when he was a child and kicked the person out again.
Then three or four more people came to his door and wanted to borrow usury from him. After everyone left the orphanage, their lives were very unsatisfactory. They were originally a group of orphans with no connections and no background. It also coincided with the collapse of the Japanese economy. If you wanted to work as a laborer, you couldn't get a black job. They didn't need a salary, they just had to take care of the food. If you could find a partner, you would be considered successful.
Satake Xuan became more and more determined in his thoughts. Only those who want nothing can survive in a society where the jungle prevails.
Until one day, Yuan Shanqin came to his door and said that he had something to ask him.
She is really old, her beautiful face is already covered with wrinkles, and her long and shiny black hair has also been dyed white by time. It is said that she has been working in the welfare home and has not been in love or married.
"Yuta is dead... beaten to death by a debt collector... Aguang is missing, that woman is a marriage fraud... and Toyoto, Yusuke... they also..."
Toyama Qin sat in front of him, hiding her face and crying: "The orphanage has been harassed by Yakuza, and they want to take away the land at a low price... I tried it, but it didn't work to call the police... Please... ...Axuan, this is the first time in so many years that I beg you...let them stop lending money to the children."
Satake Gen spent twenty-seven years trying to temper himself into an invulnerable rock. But that night, in front of that thin old woman, he was shocked to realize that he was full of flaws.
