This morning, when everyone was running around the campus, Mr. Principal said: "A new friend came, named Takahashi-kun, who is the tram partner of the first-year students, really nice." Xiaodoudou and the others saw Takahashi-kun.Takahashi-kun took off his hat, bowed, and whispered: "Hello." Xiaodoudou and the others are only first-grade elementary school students, and they are still very short, but although this Takahashi-kun is a boy, he is much shorter, and his arms and legs are very short, and his hand to hold the hat is also very small.However, his shoulders are very strong.Takahashi-kun stood there uneasy, Xiaodoudou said to Miyo, Sakuko and the others:

"Let's talk to him." Saying that, they approached Takahashi-kun.When Takahashi-kun saw them approaching, he smiled friendly, and Xiaodoudou and the others also smiled.Takahashi-kun's eyes rolled around, as if he wanted to say something. "Want to see the tram classroom?" Xiaodoudou's tone was really like that of a senior. Takahashi-kun put the hat on his head and hummed.Xiaodoudou wanted him to see the tram classroom earlier, so she quickly ran onto the tram, and shouted at the door: "Come up quickly!" Takahashi-kun hurriedly walked towards this side, but there was still a long way to go.Takahashi-kun stumbled to a run and said:

"I'm sorry, I just came over." Xiaodoudou noticed that although Takahashi-kun didn't drag his legs like Taiming who suffered from polio, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get to the tram.Xiaodoudou stopped barking and just looked at Takahashi-kun.Takahashi-kun desperately ran towards Xiaodoudou, even if Xiaodoudou didn't call "Hurry up" now, he could see that he was trying to run fast.Takahashi-kun's legs are very short and curved like crab legs.Teachers and adults all know that Takahashi-kun will always be this tall and will not grow any longer.Takahashi-kun noticed that Xiaodoudou was looking at him all the time, so he swung his arms back and forth, trying to run faster.When he finally reached the car door, he said:

"You run so fast!" Then, he said: "I'm from Osaka." "Osaka?" Xiaodoudou asked loudly.Because, for Xiaodoudou, Osaka is like a dream city, a place that has never been seen before.My mother's younger brother—the uncle who is still in college, whenever he comes to Xiaodou's house, he always grabs Xiaodou's ears with his hands, lifts up Doudou, and says: "Let me show you Osaka, have you seen Osaka?" This was originally a prank that adults often play when teasing children, but Xiaodoudou believed it to be true.Although her face was tense, her eyes were hanging up, and her ears still hurt a little, she still looked around desperately, trying to look far away, but she couldn't see Osaka.But Doudou always feels that maybe one day he will see Osaka.So, whenever uncle came, Xiaodoudou would pester him:

"Show me Osaka! Let me see." Because of this, for Xiaodoudou, Osaka is a dream city that she has never seen before.And Takahashi-kun is actually from Osaka! "Tell me about Osaka." Xiaodoudou said to Takahashi-kun.Takahashi-kun smiled happily: "What happened in Osaka...", Takahashi-kun's pronunciation was very clear, a bit like an adult's voice.Just then, the class bell rang. "it's a pity." Xiaodoudou said.Takahashi-kun's small body was almost covered by the schoolbag on his shoulders, but he shook his small body energetically, walked to the front seat and sat down.Xiaodoudou hurried over and sat next to him.At this time, I realized the benefits of the school's free seats, because Xiaodoudou had a feeling of "not getting along" Takahashi-kun.In this way, Takahashi-kun also became a good friend of Xiaodoudou.
