Re:Zero - Starting Life in Chaos

The dead body was buried, and the dead body was buried.

Yifu City, Saitama Prefecture, is Menma's hometown.

Because it is close to the mountains, Beichen passed by there 5 years ago to collect herbs in the mountains.

Unexpectedly, when he just passed a river, a corpse floated down from the upstream.

At first he didn't care, it was just a dead person.

I wanted to go around it directly, but suddenly found that the corpse's dress and face looked a bit like Menma, so he tried to pull her up.

At that time, he didn't have a top-grade elixir like the Life-Returning Pill in his hand, so he could only use ordinary elixirs and healing techniques to try to wake her up.

Fortunately, the girl was lucky and had a long life, and she had just died not long ago.

After Beichen's treatment for most of the day, she finally recovered.

After the girl's parents arrived, Beichen confirmed that the person he saved was Menma, Honma Meiko.

Things were much simpler afterwards.

After her family understood the whole story, they naturally thanked him profusely.

They kept asking him to stay at home for a few days and treat him well.

Faced with the enthusiasm of the family, Beichen couldn't refuse.

What's more, Menma was an anime character that he felt very pity for before, so he didn't act pretentiously and stayed at Honma's house for a few days.

Also during this period, the Honma couple called Beichen "Ouni-chan" happily and were very affectionate to Beichen.

Beichen seemed to like Menma very much, so with their matchmaking, they naturally became sworn brothers and sisters.

As for Menma's other friends, they fell into deep self-blame.

Although it is difficult to judge whether they are wrong in this matter, after all, quarrels between friends and insincere words for the sake of face are common.

But the cause was them.

Therefore, they still have to bear the lessons and consequences that they should bear, after all, they did not take good care of their friends.

This time, Beichen happened to pass by and had the means to save people, but what if he did not meet Beichen?

Then Menma would be really finished.

Even though Menma repeatedly explained that she fell into the water because she wanted to catch flowers in the river, the comfort effect was better than nothing.

On the other hand, because this incident really scared Mrs. Honma, she discussed with Mr. Honma and chose to move to a place far away from the mountains.

I hope that in this way, I can reduce the chances of my daughter getting along with those friends and going to the mountains as much as possible.

Beichen could not comment on this.

The starting point of the parents was for the children, and he had no position to persuade them.

The accumulation of various factors led to the crisis of disintegration of the "Super Peace Busters" at that time.

Menma naturally did not allow such a thing to happen.

Therefore, with her efforts, everyone was reluctant to be quiet for a while.

But once the cracks are formed, no matter how hard Menma tries to smooth them out, there will still be traces on its surface.

In this way, after a few years, the "Super Peace Busters" is in name only.

Although everyone is still friends and keeps in touch, they are far from the intimacy of childhood.

Beichen didn't think anything of this situation.

In his opinion, even if Menma didn't fall into the water, their friendship would gradually change as they grow up.

And except for that silly Bobo, you like me, I like him, he likes her, and she likes him.

It would be strange if they could get along peacefully all the time.

From the moment Anjo Naruko tested Sukai Jinta, the team had actually started the countdown.

In addition, the falling into the water incident was not all bad for the girl.

As the saying goes, "Misfortunes are the source of blessings."

Although Menma almost died this time, it was a blessing in disguise, and she awakened the supernatural power "wound healing".

It's not rare, but it fits Menma's personality very well.

"Menma-chan, have you settled down?"

Seeing that the girl was still shy, Beichen changed the subject.

Unlike the previous move, this time the Honma family moved to the Kita district of Toudou for work reasons, which is where Beichen's family is.

As for coming to Tohoku to study, it was naturally Beichen who asked Hayasaka to arrange it.

In fact, even if Beichen didn't arrange it, Tohoku should have sent an invitation letter to Menma.

"Yeah, yeah, I settled down a few days ago."

"If my father hadn't stopped me, saying that you were busy recently, I would have come to find Beichen, Onii-chan."

"Is that so~ Brother did have something to do a few days ago, sorry Menma-chan~"

"Yeah~~~ Menma doesn't mean to blame Onii-chan!"

"Menma-chan is so nice!"

Seeing the girl's cute appearance, Beichen couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch the girl's face.

"Ni~ So shy."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, no pinch."

"No, it's just..."

Seeing the girl's anxious look, Beichen quickly raised his hand to signal her to calm down.

"I know what you mean, let's go home in the afternoon and talk about it. It just so happens that I haven't visited my uncle and aunt for a while."

"Really? That's great!"

Hearing that Beichen was going to visit her home, Menma was excited for a while, and forgot that she was in the crowd, and threw herself into Beichen's arms again.

"Ouni-chan! Deskei!"

"Hehehe! Brother likes Menma-chan too~"

After being affectionate again without paying attention to others, Menma once again remembered that she was outside and blushed for a while.

Feeling the warmth coming from her chest and abdomen, Beichen knew that the girl was shy.

So he patted the girl's back, and after she looked up slightly, he said:

"Okay, school starts today, and you should have a lot of things to do in the first grade of high school, so go quickly! I'll wait for you at the school gate after school at noon."

"Yeah! It's settled, Onii-chan!"

"Don't worry, go back quickly!"

"Okay, Onii-chan, see you at noon!"

"See you at noon!"

Waving his hand, Beichen looked at the girl's hurried steps and couldn't help but remind her loudly:

"Menma-chan, don't run so fast, be careful not to fall."

Hearing Beichen's call, the girl stopped, turned around, and made a face at Beichen.

"Lie~ No way, I'm 16 years old, not a child!"

Although she said she didn't want to listen, she slowed down unconsciously afterwards.

Watching the girl gradually disappear in the crowd, Beichen retracted his gaze and said to Rem and Ram beside him:

"Hehe! Take a good look, now you know how popular I am!"

"I told you that if you don't want to call me 'Onii-chan', there are many beautiful girls who will call me that!"

"I still have a beautiful sister who hasn't come yet!"

"Now I'll give you a chance. If you call me 'Onii-chan', I will accept you as my sister."

Hearing this, the two looked at each other, and then looked at Beichen who was making trouble with expressionless faces.

"Sister, does Beichen have the quirk of recognizing everyone as his sister?"

"Rem, Rem, have you forgotten that we just said that Beichen is different from normal people? It's nothing to have this quirk~"

"Besides, when I was watching anime recently, I found that there was an old man with a white beard who always liked to let others be his sons."

"Eh? Sister, are there such people in the world?"

"Eh! Rem, Rem, don't be so surprised. There is a saying in this world: There are all kinds of birds in a big forest."

"So that's how it is, you are really knowledgeable! Sister."

"No, no, you are also smart! Rem."

"..."

Seeing the two people start to talk crosstalk, Beichen felt offended, but he couldn't refute it.

Helplessly, he had to turn around and pretend that nothing happened and continued to move forward.

Seeing this, Rem and Ram smiled at each other and followed closely, walking towards the teaching building.
