Traveler, High School Student, Homeless

-

Lu Jia is a 22-year-old young girl.

The painful injury in the past turned into an unforgettable nightmare, and the strange eyes of the people around and the further injury of some vicious people made her slip into the abyss and couldn't extricate herself.

Living every day is unparalleled pain, unable to start a new life, unable to find a real destination.

But now, it seems that there is a little light shining into my life.

"Hey, Senior Lu Jia, good morning."

The junior boy at the construction site smiled at her.

"I can work hard this time, let's work hard, and if you have any problems, just say it."

The kind boss is earnestly exhorting, his eyes full of deep concern.

In life, there are actually beautiful lights that I have never noticed, but my past self was too deep in the darkness until I couldn't extricate myself, and even couldn't control the moment when I hurt others.After seeing that ray of light, I realized that I was not alone.

And, it's not just that.

【Victim Mutual Aid Association】

An organization led by the Star Alliance, with the help of some personnel from the Alliance of Power Users and the Containment Control Center, specially set up to protect people like Lu Jia who have been hurt and difficult to break free, to help them maintain their rights and help them get on the right track of life, established recently.

Those videos circulating on the Internet were cleaned up, and those who used her past videos for profit were picked out one by one.There are many people in the mutual aid association who have experienced similar experiences to her, and they are responsible for guiding her to a normal life instead of falling into nightmares all day long.

This feeling is really good.

only--

"I have another small request. I want to find someone. I don't know his name, but he is a young man with a prickly hair. He is a very cheerful and strong child."

Mandy is a 16-year-old high school student.

Because of her introverted personality, she became the target of bullying by bad children, because she was not helped by her teachers, and because of her parents’ hard work, she chose to endure alone. Finally, the girl who was injured and left permanently disabled in a bullying, now picks up again. up paintbrush.

The medical assistance service from the advanced civilization organization of star field B provides free repairs for all kinds of disabled children. Fortunately, Mandy got the qualification and repaired her arm nerves, so that she can pick up the paintbrush again and do what she likes. things.

Those children who bullied her have disappeared, and the irresponsible teacher has changed to another one.

【Children's Mental Health Committee】

An organization recently established by the Star Alliance, which focuses on the mental health of minors, with the main purpose of anti-domestic violence and anti-bullying, went to Mandy’s school to investigate and uncovered a considerable number of bullying cases.

The new anti-bullying law puts all the bullying children in shelters, the parents of the children are severely punished financially, and all the teachers involved are expelled for ineffective management and recorded The blacklist cannot hire teachers for life.

As for the real bullies who have caused serious injuries, even minors now need to bear criminal responsibility, and will leave criminal records in the Star Alliance government for life, which will never be erased.This made the parents of many children go crazy, crying and begging the members of the committee to say that their children are really kind and good children, they just accidentally disabled, made someone crazy or killed someone, but In fact, the child's original intention is just to have fun, and he/she is still a minor, how can criminal punishment be imposed?

Naturally, such a request is unlikely to be accepted.

There is no need to bear the haze of the past.

If you want to say what happiness is, Mandy feels that her current life is happiness.

However, there is still a small request.

"Big sister, I want to find a big brother, very handsome, with a prickly hair, a heroic big brother who can defeat the villains at once!"

After the disaster is over, everything is slowly getting back to normal.

Kamijou Touma, who has been discharged from the hospital, returned to school, eating bento alone on the rooftop, and his life remained the same as before.

"Kamijou, you are now a great hero."

Tsuchimikado Motoharu said in a teasing voice.

"oh oh."

Kamijou Touma, who perfunctorily agreed, continued to eat the bento bite by bite.

"Recently, there have been a lot of news that the victims of the meme pollution incident want to find a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with a prickly hair after recovery. They all think that this boy saved themselves, so they want to To find the other party to thank."

The Aliangliang wooden calendar read the news on the phone.

"Why don't you let those humans find you? Is it disdain? Is it troublesome? Or some other reason?"

Shinobu Oshino, who was sitting on Araragi's lap, shook his little feet curiously.

"There is no need for that. They can get out of misfortune, continue to live, and gain joy and happiness. This is enough for me. Well, after all, I don't save people to get thanks, I just want to save people. They were pulled out of undeserved misfortune, that's all. From the moment they were successfully rescued, I was satisfied, and the rest was unnecessary."

The boy who put down his lunch showed a bright smile at this moment.

None of the three people present could deny that the person who can show such a smile is indeed the person who can make people feel the light.

Just before that—

"Your bento, the oil spilled on your pants."

Oshino Shinobu covered his mouth and started laughing.

"Hey? Hey hey?"

Kamijou Touma was taken aback for a moment, looked down at his pants, and found that the white school pants had turned yellow before he knew it, but it happened to be in the middle of his legs.

"Kamijou, are you incontinent?"

Tsuchimikado pushed his sunglasses and asked seriously.

"That's not true, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

At this moment, the boy's mournful cry echoed particularly crisply in the sky.

No matter how sad and painful the nightmare is, it will eventually pass one day, and no matter how desperate it is, it will definitely be able to overcome it.

Even in the darkness where you can't see your fingers, there are some people who are willing to stretch out their hands and walk side by side in the darkness to find the light.

The boy wanted to convey it, to the bottom of all of them.

I don't know, did I actually do it?

Occasionally, Kamijou Touma would ask himself this question.

But now, as expected, I should find a way to clean the oil stains on my pants first.

Thinking like this, the young man rinsed his pants in front of the faucet, not noticing the phantoms behind him reflected in the mirror in front of him.

Well, I always feel as if someone is watching me.

The doubtful boy raised his head, but only himself existed in the mirror.

"It's inexplicable, is it an illusion?"

Kamijou Touma, who was talking to himself like this, continued to lower his head to wash his pants.

What he couldn't hear were the muffled voices around him.

[This is too pitiful, why don't we steal a pair of pants for him? 】

[This kind of behavior is unacceptable to this child, we'd better go and steal the washing powder]

【Then let him wear it to dry naturally?You are stupid, you, stealing a hair dryer is the most important thing, okay】

[Do you guys only think about stealing?I think this child really saved the wrong person! 】

【If you can’t steal it, can you take it from the world in your hand, anyway, the world inside is exactly the same as the outside】

[Impossible, the things in it can’t be brought out. I heard some mages in the council say that it seems that it is just a "record" or something, and there is no way to use it outside]

【quiet!quiet!The first "Parliament of the Undead" is now held, please vote for which one you support! 】

The drifting voices came from the boy's left, right, behind and every corner, but no one could hear them.However, the source of these voices seemed to come from the boy's right hand.Something has changed in this new world, in addition to being able to erase illusions, it has also become a shelter for something in the right hand.

"The specific quantity, is there any conclusion now?"

Ciaf rubbed the dark circles under his eyes due to insomnia, and looked at the man in front of him who he couldn't like no matter what.

"More than 400 million, it's really cool."

Kundlely grinned.

"One more cool thing to say, I'll put this shotgun in your mouth and pull the trigger, shit, do you know what that means?"

Ciaf was getting more irritable at this moment.

"Of course I understand that the more than 400 million people who were directly infected by the original meme, who were not able to return to human beings, the so-called people who fell into despair and pain, after being dematerialized by the meme pollution, did not suffer from the pollution. It is indeed a very dangerous thing, so this thing is really cool!"

boom!

There were cheerful gunshots in the room, then the sound of blades colliding, and finally turned into an indescribably terrifying explosion.

"You actually know where those souls go, don't you?"

In the dilapidated house, Ciaf looked at the man in front of him coldly.

"No matter what, if you don't want to go back to your past life, then you can only give up your own existence, but if there is someone who is worried and wants to follow, then follow that boy and stay by his side. Isn't this a normal thing?"

Kundlely lay on the rubble, showing a mysterious smile.

"...Then, what are the countermeasures?"

After a moment of silence, Ciaf asked again.

"How do I know, do you think I look like someone who understands this stuff?"

Kundlely shook his head.

"You are a hanging monkey!"

"It's better than you bastard!"

"No matter how ghostly I am, I still live a real life. It's not like you have a problem with your head!"

"It's too real to hug a daughter who doesn't wear clothes. Do you need me to change your surname to Qiuyue?"

boom!

when! ! !

Crackling! ! !
