Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

[From picking up Sayu who ran away from home and starting to reborn in Tokyo] []

the other side--

Sayu asked the girl on the yoga mat.

"Miss Shinjo, have you ever heard of the group "Bond Project"? "

While doing a stretching yoga pose, Shinjoka replied disapprovingly: "I haven't heard of it, what is that? A rock band?"

"No. Although I understand how you feel, this understanding is still completely wrong!"

Sayu raised a finger in a serious manner and explained: "Listen, the other party is an NPO organization just like us."

The so-called NPO (Non-Profit) refers to organizations that are not for profit and are established to achieve social welfare or mutual benefit.

It must be mentioned that non-profit does not mean non-profit.

Although the government legally requires such organizations not to use profits for personal distribution, that does not really mean that all members can generate electricity for love.

In other words, these organizations can make a profit. For example, extracting management fees from donations, providing paid services, making investments to increase value, paying salaries to members, etc.——

——But the only thing you can't do is seek personal gain.

No matter what form of profit is obtained, after deducting operating costs, it must continue to be used to achieve the mission of the organization and must not be used for other purposes.

Shinjoka was not interested in this topic, so she asked in a nonchalant manner: "And then, that group also specializes in rescuing girls who are treated like gods?"

"No, it seems that the other party does not give special treatment to this group like us, but will help those young women who are prone to self-harm, aid, abuse, sexual violence and suicide to get out of trouble."

Sayu sorted out his words, suppressed his excitement and said, "Anyway, I contacted that group, and their representative agreed that we should go visit tomorrow~~!"

"visit?"

"Yes! That organization has been established for a long time, and it has been reported in the news. All aspects of its operations are very mature. I think we can definitely learn a lot of experience!"

"I see, I understand your intention." Shinjoka said clearly: "So, when will you make an appointment with someone else? I will go with you then."

"Really!?" Sayu cheered: "That's great! I'm actually a little nervous. If Miss Shinjo is willing to come along, I will feel much more at ease."

Shinjoka glanced at her and reminded:

"You haven't forgotten that this is part of our deal, right? I promise to help you develop the association, but you must tell me everything about you and the president later."

"Of course I remember, please don't worry, Ms. Shinjo. Also, the time I made with the other party is at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The location is near Shinjuku. Is Ms. Shinjo free?"

"Can."

"Then do you want to call me Miss Serizawa tomorrow?"

"If Xiao Xi comes too, what should we do with Muzi downstairs? Should she be left alone at home?"

"Asami said she would come tomorrow and be able to help take care of Miss Muzi."

Shinjoka finished her yoga movements, tucked her hanging hair behind her ears, thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to call Xiao Xi, just the two of us will go."

[From picking up Sayu who ran away from home and starting to reborn in Tokyo] []

Sayu didn't ask any more questions and replied "Hello".

…

The next day at 3:30 in the afternoon.

The two took the Keio Line to "Hataya Station" in Shibuya Ward. After walking for 4 minutes from the station, we arrived at our destination.

Although April is already halfway through, the sky is still filled with light clouds of early spring.

The pigeons rested quietly on the branches, seeming to enjoy the beauty of spring.

Sayu gently fanned her cheeks, feeling the coolness brought by the breeze.

In order not to give a too casual impression, she chose a suit with a thin jacket and skirt today, and her legs were a little cold.

On the other hand, Xintiao Xiang chose a combination of black long sleeves and high-waisted jeans. The open design of the long-sleeved upper arm slightly exposes the skin, which looks fashionable yet stable, and has a wonderful sense of harmony with the casual temperament of the owner.

——Miscalculation.

Sayu thought to herself, quietly checking whether her clothes were neat and straightened up naturally.

Although the girl next to her is not tall, she gives off a subtle sense of maturity and exudes a sense of imbalance that she has experienced, attracting people's attention.

She knew the reason behind this, and she also vaguely understood that the other party was not as all-rounded as he appeared on the surface. In fact, he was actually a person who was so transparent that he was almost indifferent.

Maybe she looked at it for too long. Shinjoka turned her head in confusion, met her eyes, and opened her mouth slightly.

"What do you think I'm doing? Aren't I going to meet someone else? What's the next step?"

Sayu chuckled and pointed forward, "It should be this building. Their office is on the sixth floor, we can just go up."

Shinjoka looked in the direction she pointed.

A red building stood in front of them. It was a commercial and residential apartment with a somewhat unprepossessing appearance.

Shinjoka looked away and said, "Since we know the specific floor, let's go up quickly."

"Okay~~" Sayu happily agreed and walked ahead to lead the way.

The two entered from the main entrance and took the elevator to the sixth floor.

At the end of the corridor, a woman wearing a gray overalls jacket was standing there, casting inquiring eyes at them.

"Yo." The other party waved and asked, "I would like to ask, are you here to visit?"

"Ah, yes, hello."

Sayu hurriedly replied, speeding up his pace a little and walking up, then slowing down a little distance away from the other party, hesitating.

How to describe it?

The woman has neat short hair and a big face. She is about 35 years old. There are subtle wrinkles on her forehead and corners of her eyes, revealing the traces of time.

Although it is not appropriate to say this, not only does the other person look a bit fierce, but his body shape is also slightly sturdy, giving people a feeling that it is difficult to get close to him.

Sayu was a little nervous unconsciously and couldn't help but look to her side. Shinjoka's expression was calm and she asked quite naturally.

“Hi, are you from the “Bond Project”? "

The woman showed a heroic smile and affirmed: "Welcome, I am Tachibana Jun, the representative of "Bond Project", which one of you is Sayu? "

[From picking up Sayu who ran away from home and starting to reborn in Tokyo] []

The other party grinned with white teeth, and the warm smile diluted the tyranny on his face, making Sayu relax a little.

"Hello, we are members of the "OSY Association". I am Sayu Ogiwara, who has been in contact with you, Ms. Tachibana, and this is my companion Shinjoka. "

She bowed respectfully, "Thank you for giving us this precious opportunity to visit. Please take care of us."

Shinjoka also lowered his head and said, "Please take care of me."

"Where are you talking? You're welcome."

Ju Chun waved his hand and responded easily:

"It is rare to see people of your age who are interested in public welfare undertakings. I am also very happy to meet young people with enthusiasm like you. Anyway, let's come and visit first."

""excuse me. ""

Sayu and Shinjoka agreed in unison, and then followed each other into the room with the "Bond Project" sign.

This is an apartment worthy of its name. It is not large and can barely accommodate five people.

Considering the high rents in this neighborhood, it’s easy to understand why you would choose an apartment as your office location.

The entire room was transformed into an office, with desks and computers next to the walls. Several employees share a desk, and some materials are piled on the table.

Seeing them walking in, the three employees sitting at their desks all cast curious glances and nodded friendly.

Contrary to Sayu's expectation, people here wear casual clothes to work, which seems less formal.

Miss Tachibana greeted the employees, then led them into the room that had been converted from a bedroom into a reception room, and sat down at the conference table in the center.

Then, the other party filled two glasses of water with disposable paper cups, placed them in front of them, and said with a smile:

"Sorry, our office is relatively small. Are you disappointed?"

Sayu quickly waved his hand to deny, "No, please don't say that. It's because we took the liberty to come and disturb you that we should say sorry."

Shinjoka drank some water to moisten his throat and said casually: "I think the layout outside is a bit like a teacher's office in a school, and here is the student guidance room, which makes people feel surprisingly friendly."

The wonderful metaphor made Tachibana laugh heartily.

"Ahaha, this description is really interesting. Young people are indeed very interesting. It makes me miss my student career~"

After laughing for a while, Tachibana said in a gentle tone: "Then just treat it as if you are at school. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. No need to be polite."

Sayu and Shinjoka looked at each other and nodded slightly.

"Yes, please feel free to enlighten me." ""

…

After asking for Tachibana's permission, Sayu took out the notebook and mobile phone he carried with him, intending to record questions while asking questions.

Shinjoka glanced at her densely written notebook, leaned back on the chair, and decided to be a listener.

"Then, please give me some advice."

Shayou first raised the most basic question:

"Ms. Orange, can you tell us what services your organization provides and your usual work arrangements?"

Tachibana Jun seemed prepared and explained fluently.

“We mainly provide support activities for women who encounter difficulties, and the projects include providing them with temporary housing, food supplies and mental health counseling.

[From picking up Sayu who ran away from home and starting to reborn in Tokyo] []

Because the target group is young women, everyone usually pays attention to the information on the Internet, pays attention to whether someone has posted news about running away from home and asking for help, and then sends a DM to the other party to confirm. "

DM (Direct Message), which means private message.

"Pay attention to the information on the Internet. Do you mean the kind of website that specializes in announcing girls who are in love with gods? I have searched on the Internet, but the results seem a bit strange..."

Ju Chun was not surprised at all and said with a smile:

“You’ll find it strange because those are scam websites, designed to defraud men who want to become ‘gods’ out of money, and everything in them is false.

Generally speaking, most women will not use suspicious websites, but use familiar SNS and famous dating websites. Secondly, they will not claim to be gods to girls. "

"Uh, it turns out it wouldn't be...?"

"Yes. If you search for " # 神treat" on Twitter, you will find that the tags listed below are basically scam websites.

When most women want help, they usually use tags such as " # moves out of home", " # who can let me live in", " # asks for help", " # wants to run away from home" etc. . "

Sayu was surprised, but then felt it was reasonable.

There is nothing wrong with the word "God's treatment" at first glance, but upon closer inspection it is full of flaws. Not only are they very sensitive, but they are also prone to bad transactions.

Except for some people with ulterior motives, ordinary people will naturally not use such derogatory words to describe themselves.

Seeing her surprised expression, Tachibana Chun further explained.

“Of course, even those asking for help are not necessarily true, and there are also inducements from fraudulent websites.

Sayu calmed down and asked, "How do you identify this specifically? Can you please explain it in detail?"

"It's very simple. In fact, you can roughly tell it just by looking at the detail of the information.

In order to attract victims, the pretenders usually use photos of cute girls as avatars and leave links to scam websites using their contact information as bait.

There is nothing superfluous about a real home-born girl on Twitter, and only her age and living situation are written on her homepage. When posting help information, we will also try to use a small account that can be abandoned at any time. "

As he spoke, Tachibana took out his phone, opened Twitter, and showed them some examples for comparison.

"This is an account used by a woman we rescued before. You can see that there are no people following the account, but it is followed by 60 users. Do you understand why this is?"

The other party asked meaningfully, as if he wanted to test them.

"Hmm~ Well..."

Sayu frowned slightly, worried for a while, and couldn't help but look at the people next to him, hoping to get some inspiration.

Shinjoka noticed her eyes and said casually:

"Besides public welfare organizations like us, who else do you think would care about the accommodation of a strange woman?"

"You mean..."

Sayu instantly understood what she wanted to express and opened her eyes slightly, while Tachibana Jun directly affirmed.

[From picking up Sayu who ran away from home and starting to reborn in Tokyo] []

"That's right, just like Miss Shinjo said.

While we want to provide rescue for these women, there are many men who are also coveting them, which makes our job much more difficult. We must act before them. "

"I see……"

Sayu nodded slowly, keeping these words in mind, and then asked the next question of particular concern.

"Ms. Tachibana, can I ask how your organization raises funds to ensure its normal operations?"

This question was a bit bold, just like asking for someone else's unique secrets. It would not be surprising even if the master would be angry because of it, but such a situation did not happen.

Faced with her inquiry, Tachibana Chun said openly:

“Are you looking for financial support for your organization?

I do have some fundraising methods here, but they are not something you can use directly right now.

Anyway, let me give you an overview first. You can write it down first and then make adjustments according to your own situation. "
