In fact, Mr. Kijiro was not a "good gentleman" in the true sense, he was just an ignorant marketer. At the beginning, Kijiro didn't really want to take Masao to find his mother. He was indifferent to family love, because when he was young, his mother also left him, and he seemed to have already had feelings for his mother. It was erased from the heart, but when his wife accidentally said something disrespectful to her mother, Kikujiro still said rudely: "You can't say that to my mother.
" Still very concerned about Xiao Zhengnan. He stopped the hooligan from bullying Xiao Zhengnan and took him to stay in a good-quality hotel. Although Kikujiro himself was having fun, he never forgot his "mission". It's just that he is arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable to anyone. While waiting for a passing car at the village station, Kijiro stole the food from passers-by and gave it to Masao, while he hid his own share and said "poorly", "Sometimes adults have to sacrifice for children." Then he went to the toilet for an excuse and ran to the field to eat secretly. Perhaps in the eyes of many viewers, this is due to Kikujiro's hypocrisy, but in my opinion, this is just Kijiro, who can only play a small role in his daily life, trying to establish a tall and beautiful image in the hearts of children. He also aspires to be a hero.
On the way to find Xiao Zhengao's mother, Kijiro slowly became like a father.
Along the way, they really had a hard time. They met many kind and warm people, as well as some cold and selfish people. Finally, they found the home of Zheng Nan's biological mother. Just when they wanted to meet Zheng Nan's mother happily, they found that this woman had become a new home. Xiao Zhengnan ran away sadly. The also lost Kikujiro didn't know how to comfort the frustrated little Masao. He snatched the "Angel Bell" from the two gangsters and tricked Masao that the woman just now was not his mother. His mother had moved away. It was left to him by his mother. The child's thoughts are always pure, Masao believed Kijiro's "lie" and carefully put away the bell.
In order to amuse the lost little Masao, Kijiro and three other men who have only one relationship with him take him camping. Four loving men tried their best to amuse the child who had completely lost his mother's love again and again. They are also insignificant people in society, even a humble group, but what they have done for this strange little boy is so noble and worthy of respect.
Although he failed to make Xiao Zhengnan and his mother recognize each other, in the process of helping Xiao Zhengnan find his mother, the middle-aged Kijiro gradually recovered his seemingly lost feelings for his mother. One night waiting for the train at the village station, after Xiao Zhengnan told Kijiro all about himself, the "little overlord" who was usually invincible was also sad, and said softly: "So he is the same as me." When he passed by the place where his mother lived on his way back to Tokyo with Xiao Zhengnan, he came to his mother's nursing home for the first time. He looked at the old mother sitting alone in the chair from a distance, with a solemn expression. When the nurse asked him if he wanted to call his mother, he hurriedly refused... Maybe he couldn't adapt to such a sudden affection. Leaving the nursing home, he looked at his mother by the window again through the glass, this time the emotion in his eyes was reluctance.
The journey to help Xiao Zhengnan find his mother is actually a cleansing of Kijiro's own soul. From a cynical gangster he gradually became gentle, kind and responsible. Facing Xiao Zhengnan, his face was a little less evil and a little more loving.
Because of the company of Kijiro and a few good-hearted people all the way, the little Masao who returned to Tokyo still had a smile on his face, and he was no longer sad about it. After breaking up with Kijiro, he happily ran home with a backpack with angel wings given by kind people on the way... Angels will always protect this beloved child.
If a frog can become a prince, then I think a rogue can also become an angel—Kiujiro is the angel of Xiao Masao.
In fact, every gentle and kind soul is an angel.
