For the Slaughter To Eliminate the Haggard

"Is this hat to your liking?"

In the mirror, the man in the baseball cap still looked gloomy.

Ah... must be dissatisfied.

I quickly took off my baseball cap and put on a beret for him: "Look, what a gentle line, what a fresh color, coupled with your unique melancholy temperament, it's just—"

The other side glanced at me, and I shut up.

I took off his beret, and then struggled between a sun hat and a wool hat with a HelloKitty pattern... The other party didn't give me a chance to spoil him, and decided to choose a similar felt hat to wear.

The man didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. After choosing the hat, he turned around and left. I paid the money and chased after him.

"Please wait," I ran to him, "Are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital?"

The other party was very indifferent and said weakly: "No need."

"That's it... By the way, my name is Hyuga Ito, and my phone number is xxxxxxxx352. If you feel unwell, please call me. I will pay for the medical expenses."

Perhaps it was this sincere attitude that caught the man's attention. He looked at me and asked, "Hyuga Kazuto?"

I nod.

Upon seeing this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his wine-red eyes also brought a smile: "I remember."

Hey, has it changed so much?

No, this shouldn't be a new type of deception, deliberately letting the girl bruise him and taking the opportunity to deceive him about his contact information... I looked at the other party, and my eyes gradually disgusted.

man:"?"

After being delayed like this, I also missed the Shinkansen, so I couldn't go to Fukuoka, so I could only go back to the Armed Detective Agency and stay there.

A lot of things happened in the next few days. First, the armed data transport vehicle of the Secret Service was attacked. It didn't take long for Jinghua to receive a gift for joining the company, which recorded the situation on the day her parents died.

The father is a government spy, and the mother has assisted her husband to participate in the assassination many times. One day, they were killed by a power user who came to seek revenge. Before dying, the mother transferred the power [Yaksha Baixue] to her daughter. , let it become the guardian of her daughter, Jinghua knew that Yasha Baixue was not the murderer of her parents, but the embodiment of parental love.

Since that day, Kyoka has changed her attitude towards Yasha Baixue, who has been promoted from a tool ability to a pillow-level existence.

"Speaking of supernatural powers..." I muttered, looking at Yasha Baixue who was helping Kyoka move documents, "What would it be like if I had supernatural powers?"

Yosano: "I just saw a similar test yesterday..."

"No, your test is too lethal, I refuse."

"Vine," said Neji, who was sitting in front of me, "my hair..."

I was braiding him: "Huh?"

"Don't make it up again."

"Ha, why, are you starting to hate me?!"

"..."

"Because I'm hated, so I don't even have the right to touch the big brother's hair?"

"..."

"Sad, sad, desperate, the most important things you said in your heart are all lies!"

Neji sighed as if admitting defeat: "Remember to return to the original state."

I instantly changed my face: "Okay!"

Tanizaki held his face in profile, watching our interaction in his eyes: "It feels harmonious."

"Yeah," I didn't deny it, "I feel like I've got the hang of being able to do whatever I want with Big Brother."

Kunikida's hand on the keyboard paused, and he and Neji said sharply at the same time, "Don't use idioms indiscriminately!"

Although I was reprimanded, I was still very happy.

Neji always knew that I hated the clan, and even more hated hearing the clan's name, so he didn't explain the reason why he missed the fireworks festival. Later, he didn't see me when he arrived at the appointed place. He just thought I thought he was too late and left. , but who knew that after that, I misunderstood that Neji had placed Hinata in a higher position, and the number of times he went home had changed from very few to very few. One didn’t talk and one didn’t ask, which caused the rigidity of the brother-sister relationship.

Now that everything is explained, the rift between me and him is gone.

Thanks to Dazai.

When I was braiding Neji's hair, I sneaked out my phone and sent Dazai a message with the content ">3

This kind of sneaky feeling... how should I put it, it's quite exciting.

Not long after that, something happened to Don's side.

That day, I happened to be investigating a case with Yosano and I suddenly saw an uncle rushing onto the road and pulled him back by Yosano before the truck was about to hit him.

"Really, it's very dangerous to rush out hastily." After the truck driver apologized and drove away, Yu Xeno said to the uncle.

"Feel sorry……"

"Wait a minute," I thought the man looked familiar, "Aren't you the uncle of the orphanage?"

The other party looked at me, and the memory was pulled back to the past: "Are you the one who came to the orphanage with Miss Aihara?"

Then we chatted for a while, and then I realized that the dean saw Tonson on the newspaper and wanted to encourage him to come to Yokohama. He also bought flowers as a gift for this, but the newspaper was blown away by the wind halfway through. , he went to pick it up, but he didn't expect the truck to come right here.

"I don't have the position to say these words, but..." I looked at the flower in the dean's hand and said, "A-Dun won't see you."

His original intention was to make Dun, who is a white tiger, a gentle and upright person, but when he abused Dun, he was really cruel.

The dean understood what I meant and didn't refute it, but he still asked us to hand over the flower to Dun, saying that it would be good to just take a look at Dun from a distance, we thought it over and over and agreed.

But something went wrong in the middle. When the dean was hiding outside the cafe, Lucy mistook him for [Zapak]. The two made a noise when they were arguing, and it was exposed. When he saw him, he really lost control. , if I hadn't pressed him, I might have rushed up to fight with the dean on the spot.

This is good, the dean's wish was not fulfilled, and Dun also ran away. It took me a lot of effort to find him.

At dusk, this gentle and kind teenager looked particularly sad.

I pondered for a moment, and still explained the purpose of the dean's visit.

"I don't believe it!" Dun was very excited, "This is absolutely impossible, why even you have to lie to me!"

I know he actually believed it, but he still couldn't accept it.

"Sister Ito, do you know my past, I was treated like garbage by that man, beaten with red-hot tongs almost every day, and once, he even asked me to nail my feet, all this , I can't forgive everything I suffered when I was a child!"

Dun collapsed and shouted, completely lost in his composure.

After he finished venting, I said, "You don't have to forgive him."

Dean's starting point is good, but those abuses are also real. There are always people in gray areas in this world, and Dean is one of them.

"Although he made you who you are now, you still have the right to hate him. If you don't want to see the dean again, I will let him leave the city."

Hearing this sentence, Dun's mood gradually stabilized: "Actually, I really envy Sister Ito."

"Envy me?"

"Well, the Hyuga family is a big family. Sister Ito, like me, lost both parents, but she has grown up so well. I believe other elders must have spent a lot of effort in training them, unlike me..."

"Ah, you don't have to be envious of this," I sat down beside him and comforted, "I made it up by myself, and they basically didn't care."

Dun's expression changed slightly: "Only by myself?"

"Isn't it a genius," I rubbed his head with a smile. "Actually, the elders also want to take care of it, but I don't want to."

"Huh...then if that's the case..."

"Because my qualifications are good, and I have a lot of property under my name. After my parents died, they all wanted to adopt me and my eldest brother. They have used all means, so they just robbed me."

Don didn't speak at all.

Seeing how he wanted to console himself but didn't know where to start, I wondered for a moment: "Adon... Do you think I'm sad?"

"It will definitely be sad!" Dun's voice was full of worry and resentment, "Sister Ito's elders are too much—"

I shook my head and replied, "Don't worry, I'm used to it."

I am not kidding.

The first time I heard the adoption request, my mood fluctuated greatly, and the second time was the same, but later, as the number of times increased, coercion and inducement became commonplace, and I would not feel any more.

When we were young, Ningci and I both hated the Zong family. The elders of the split families used this to sow discord, robbed us for two or three years, and often made outrageous actions. Later, the adults of Rizu noticed this and scolded the separation, and those adults stopped.

"I didn't try to be brave," I looked at Tun's complicated eyes, "The things of those days are over, and now I am the Hyuga Kazuto of the Revenge House, not the poor **** of the Hyuga branch... Forgot to mention, I used to beat him up. I've seen those rude old men, haha, it's cool for no reason, what do you think... Hey, why are you crying!"

Dun covered his eyes with his arm, his body trembling: "I'm sorry, but I still said stupid things like Ito-san is living happily..."

"Being unhappy in the past should be regarded as a life experience, can't it be enough to live happily now?"

"But, but—I'm too self-righteous, I don't know at all that Sister Ito is so arrogant, she must have been much worse than me when she was a child..." The boy's tears flowed happily.

No, what we were talking about just now.

I was anxious: "You are still a bit miserable."

"No, you are even worse."

"You are miserable."

"You are miserable."

"You are miserable!"

Dun was heartbroken: "You are the worst!"

"Hey, why are you still excited, don't cry, I'm not dead yet!"

"It's better to die!"

As soon as these words came out, we were silent for a while.

"I'm sorry, Ito-san, that's not what I wanted to express!"

"It's alright..." I still managed to hold on, "Go on crying, I won't interrupt."

"..."

"Do you still want to cry?"

"Not at all..."

"Then... go back?"

Dun was very embarrassed: "Okay."

When he returned to the Armed Detective Agency, the dean had already left, leaving only the flowers. Dun looked at the bunch of flowers, but he didn't throw them away. He took them back and put them in a vase. Meet with the dean.

After everything was settled, I bought a ticket back to Fukuoka and wanted to pick up Uematsu. In fact, Uematsu could come to Yokohama by himself, but he said he was afraid and insisted on asking me to pick him up. He was almost too old. Crying on the other end of the phone, I couldn't stand it and had to agree.

However, I didn't expect that another accident happened in Yokohama on the day I bought the ticket. The power users were frequently attacked, and there were already deaths.

...

Co-authoring this person is destined to fail me, right?

I was complaining when my phone suddenly rang, it was a new email.

I opened it, and there was only one sentence in it.

【5 pm, shopping mall】

?

At five o'clock, the sun's rays cast a veil.

I came to the shopping center as scheduled, and I saw a man waiting across the road from a long distance. The other party also found me, but instead of coming over, he turned his head and walked into the crowd. I intuitively told me that he was the one who sent me the email. , so decisively followed the past.

"Stop!" I caught up with him and grabbed his arm. "That's you, the one who asked me here... eh?"

Wearing a white hat, her hair is a little long, and her eyes are still wine red...

I let go of my hand, very surprised: "It's you, little brother."

"As you wish, I have contacted you."

It just sounds like a very common sentence.

"Come to me all of a sudden, is it because of the internal injury from hitting a tree last time? It shouldn't be. Why is the internal injury so lag?"

At this moment, the phone in my pocket rang, and I picked it up: "Mosimoxi."

[Xiao Yiteng, didn't you say that you are going to come back soon, why is there no news at all! 】

"Jiro, I'm really sorry, something happened here in Yokohama... I'm also very puzzled, there's no peace here... No, no, I definitely didn't perfunctory you, I'll come back after the case is settled... Really, I'm Tazai The face swears."

After coaxing Jiro, I breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile returned to my face.

Yet when I turned around, I stiffened—

The man in the white hat stretched out his arms and pointed his fingers to my chest.

less than half a centimeter apart.

I:"……"

other side:"……"

Looking at each other awkwardly for a few seconds, I reacted suddenly, screamed, and slapped him.

Snapped! ! !

A real slap, crisp and loud.
