disqualified hero

The bookstore where the author meeting is held is the largest bookstore in Hosu City. Compared with the big bookstores in Tokyo, it does not seem to be too spacious, but it also occupies the entire two floors of a high-rise building, which can accommodate some readers and many police heroes.

The space is divided into two parts, the foreground and the backstage, and the author's rest room is located between the passages connecting the two stations. Aizawa Shouta followed Dazai Osamu to the room once. It is not very big, but it is more than enough to accommodate one person. The sofas, tables and chairs were all wiped clean, and the organizer even placed a small freezer in it, where snacks and snacks can be found.

No one dares to let Dazai stay on stage for a long time. There are many reasons. One is that he is worried that the hero killer will come and threaten his personal safety; circulated on the web.

Although there are people who like to challenge the heroic society, not everyone wants to test the bottom line. In addition, there are many heroes present. When formulating the process, the people in the bookstore went to Dazai with their heads full of sweat, and nodded and bowed to beg him. Don't make radical remarks, and it is best to spend less time on the stage.

What he didn't expect was that Mr. Dazai, who was difficult to deal with in every sense, immediately agreed to his request, so smoothly that he almost had the illusion, for example, "You are so understanding, Mr. Dazai."

7:55pm, Mr. Dazai who finished the activity should sit in the rest room.

Hawks and Aizawa Shouta walked one after the other. The distance between the backstage and the lounge is very close, and it takes only 2 minutes to walk there. The corridor is not too spacious, but it is very clean. The bright lights illuminate the corridor like daytime , The floor is a white tile floor, spotless.

"Drip-drip-"

"Drip-drip-"

Hawks' footsteps stopped, and so did Aizawa Shouta. The mobile phones in their pockets vibrated at the same time, and Hawks' heart was suddenly cast with a shadow. He had to say that since Dazai decided to When Hosu City held a press conference for his work, the beating frequency of his heart was not quite right, and his loose nerves were even more tense, and he didn't know when it would break.

As if something was bound to go wrong.

The moment he connected the phone, the distraught voices of other heroes rang out beside his cochlea, and there was still an unconcealable panic in that voice: "Brainless, Brainless appeared in Baoxu City!" Hawkes was not called by his first name.

His face suddenly became solemn, and he looked up at Aizawa Shouta, the whites of his eyes were more bloodshot. "Where is Brain Wu?" Hawkes tried to make his voice sound calm, but the steps under his feet became faster, and with the help of wings, he slid to the front of the lounge in three steps and couldn't wait to open the door. Knock open.

The room was empty.

"Damn it!" He couldn't help cursing, God knows whether it was Dazai or Nao Wu who suddenly came out to make trouble, Empress Aizawa Sho stepped up to him, the phone was still held by his ear, and his expression became more and more serious The more dignified.

The person on the other end of the phone was terrified, and the voice was astonishingly loud. Hawks could hear his voice even though he didn’t turn on the loudspeaker: “It’s messed up outside now, and there are four monsters who made trouble with Xiongying last time. , are all near Baoxu Bookstore, have different personalities, and some can even fly."

"No one controls them, they have already spread in Hosu City, and all the heroes in the bookstore are dispatched."

[No wonder I heard a rumbling sound] Hawkes thought [Is it the sound of people running? ]

Aizawa Shouta's mind was spinning quickly, he thought for a second and said: "We split into two groups, you go to Dazai, I'll go and see Naomi." He said calmly, "I and Naomi I have been in contact with the enemy before, and I have experience in fighting against the enemy. If you rush over now, you should be able to help others, and you are faster. It hasn’t been long since Dazai came down from the stage. Even if you run away, you can’t run very far. He found it and took care of it so as not to do dangerous things again."

Hawkes understood what Eraserhead meant, and he nodded sharply: "Okay."

The two turned around directly and split into two groups.

Hawks' mind was spinning quickly, and the floor plan of the bookstore slowly unfolded in his mind. There are not many rooms that can lead to after exiting. If you don't go back to the lounge, you have to run outside. Plainclothes policemen are not in the minority, but if it is Dazai, it is easy to sneak out.

He looked at his phone, and it was only 5 minutes before Dazai left the stage, even if he ran away, he wouldn't be able to go very far.

[As long as I speed up, I should be able to find him. ]

[No, it's not that I should, but I have to find him. ]

……

Baoxu Bookstore has a long history. The building that houses the bookstore was built a long time ago. It was one of the landmark buildings of the city 40 years ago. It has been renovated for decades. Although it is not as new as it was then, it is also It is very beautiful, and even has a little bit of the unique heaviness after the precipitation of history.

However, the front of the people is brilliant, but the back of the people still has some dirty spots that are not known to the public. Several high-rise buildings are distributed around the Baoxu Building, and there are several narrow paths between the high-rise buildings. Together, and not completely connected, even the locals living in the old city can easily enter a dead end when walking. They thought they could lead to the outside world, but before walking a few steps, they suddenly saw a wall, or It's a dense barbed wire fence.

Enemies and bad elements in the society especially like this place. The high-rise buildings are full of darkness, and the sun can’t shine in. Even the alleys lack sunlight 24 hours a day. It is said that it is a dark night with a high wind and a murderous night. Criminal activities are often carried out in these places. of.

The sound of music floated in the air, accompanied by the sound of the heels of men's leather shoes stepping on the floor tiles, it was especially weird.The music comes from a person's throat, and if you listen carefully, it is a tune without lyrics. The hem of the young man's black windbreaker floats up and down with his steps, drawing an elegant arc in midair.

It was night now, and the streets and alleys were darker than in the daytime. There were only a few lights flickering in the narrow alleys, and the wicks were too old, flickering on and off.

"Gah-"

The winged Nao Wu hovered in mid-air. His body was very thin and his wings were plump. He flew like a lightning bolt at extremely fast speed. He shuttled freely in mid-air, and those blocking roadblocks didn't work for him. The long and sharp beak is used for attacking, and suddenly swoops down, picks up the chasing hero, flies into the air, opens the beak again, and throws the man off.

"Snapped."

There was a puddle of meat mud on the ground.

The flying Nao Wu escaped from the hero's pursuit, he shuttled into the densely packed alleys, flying at low altitude, his cloudy eyeballs turned around, as if he was searching for prey, or just to see if there was anyone on the ground.The boy in black almost merged with the night, but his vision surpassed that of human beings, but he caught the silhouette under Osamu Dazai's lamp.

"Quack——" opened his mouth, and let out two screams that were worse than those of a bird. The wings were pressed down, and the angle was tilted, straight towards Dazai.He seemed to want to pick up Dazai, but also seemed to want to tear people apart with his sharp beak.

Naomo came from behind, his wings sliced ​​through the air, and the sharp wind lifted Dazai's hair.

"!" The man jumped down from a certain floor of the building, and his feet precisely stepped on Nawu's spine, and the crisp and pleasant "click" sound entered Dazai's ears, and he knew without raising his head that the bone was broken.

The sharp blade shining with snow-white light penetrated the skull from top to bottom, and the acceleration of gravity added to Stein's already strong strength. In just a few seconds, the monster that was still flying just now was lying on the ground dying, and its head was crushed. It penetrated, the gray brain mixed with blood spread on the ground, the powerful wings subconsciously twitched twice, and did not move.

Brain dead.

Stein raised his head, the whites of his eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, his eyes were surprisingly bright in the dark night, wrapped in a desperate frenzy: "Mr. Dazai."

"I finally found you," he said.

……

Aizawa Shouta ran against the flow of people.

Whether it's appearance or ability, Brainless brings only fear to ordinary people. Heroes whose personalities are not suitable for fighting stand on the street, evacuate the crowd, and help when someone falls, while the remaining heroes have already Go up to him, trying to cure his brainlessness.

He put on his glasses while running, and the three of them stood in the circle surrounded by heroes.

One of them is similar to the one that appeared in Xiongying last time. It is tall and powerful; the second head has four hands; Spits highly corrosive slime.

Aizawa Shota's elimination of personality has no effect on the third mind.

Andeva was already in the first bar. The high-heat flame wrapped his fist, and he swung it at Naowu with all his strength. The opponent's flesh was scorched several times when it came into contact with the high-temperature flame. First, it was carbonized into powder. , but then regenerated at an extremely fast speed, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Andwa was in a hard fight.

"Eraserhead!" A hero noticed Aizawa Shouta, "How did you deal with this monster last time?"

"The Nao Wu we saw last time is different from this time." He kept moving his hands while answering, and the last Nao Wu had a strong personality, but his body was a little weak. Aizawa Shouta's personality just restrained him After a while, he was tightly wrapped in bandages, and his mouth couldn't even be opened. His extremely lethal personality seemed to be sealed away.

"Last time, there was only one brain, and the personality was the same as the brain that confronted Andeva. The other two were very different." He said, "Weaknesses, the eyes are barely one." He then asked, "Doesn't it mean that there are four brains? , why is there only..."

"There is another one that can fly." Someone replied, "And it flies very fast. Several heroes are chasing him. I don't know if we can solve it." He said, "Hawkes, where is Hawkes? Then The speed of mindless flight is too fast, and no one is guaranteed to be able to keep up except Hawks."

"Boom--" "Boom--"

The battle between Andawa and Nao Wu was too intense. They were not close to where Aizawa Shouta was, but the commotion was enough for everyone to know what happened.

[Hurry up and find Dazai, Hawks. ]

[The premonition in my heart is not very good. ]

……

Stein looked at Dazai, he didn't even give the slightest glance to Nawu who had no signs of life under his feet, at this moment he couldn't see another person in his eyes.

"Hi." Dazai waved his hand in greeting, "It's really hard for you to recognize me dressed like this."

He always wears an ugly hood when he attends press conferences.

The sharp white blade was dug out from the back of the monster's head, and Stein flicked it casually a few times. There were spots of blood all over the ground, with some white mixed with the red, which might be brains.He approached Osamu Dazai step by step, with an oppressive feeling that could not be described in words.

"I didn't expect Mr. Dazai to be so young." Stein actually chatted with Dazai about the daily life.

"Thinking about it this way, Mr. Dazai seemed to be just a child when he was with Achilles." He walked forward step by step, and he was almost on the same level as Dazai. You wrote it, is this considered a remarkable talent?"

Dazai finally spoke, his eyes were narrowed, and there was an indescribable sarcasm when he looked up close and far away, "You can understand it that way."

"After all, my handwriting hasn't changed over the years. It's impossible for ordinary children, and if it wasn't for the same handwriting, you wouldn't be able to find me."

"If you have anything to say, just tell me, you have spent a lot of time looking for me, what do you want to know?"

"I want to know—" Sure enough, Stein would not let go of any opportunity to learn about Achilles, "I want to know, is Achilles really dead, and if so, what is his will?"

He claims to be the orthodox heir of Achilles, and everything he does is just like his idol, for the future of individual society.

"Achilles?" Dazai tilted his head, "Of course he died, and it was a long time ago. If he hadn't died, how could his so-called supporters be slaughtered at will in society without violating the rules? hero?"

His words were too straightforward and sarcasm. Stein's expression couldn't hold back for a moment, and he became ferocious. As for the hand holding the knife, it also trembled slightly.

As for Osamu Dazai, he acted as if he didn’t notice Stein’s abnormality, and then spit out a series of words from his mouth: “If Achilles is still alive, he will definitely try to kill you, Stein the hero killer, you just It's just a murderer who kills indiscriminately for no reason, and the crime does not need to be investigated or written. In just a few years, he maimed and killed countless regular heroes, causing more social harm than disqualified people."

Stein's fingers were slightly bent, and his joints protruded. When he clamped Dazai's neck, it was like a sharp eagle claw. His strength was so great that Dazai's back was pressed against the wall, and his feet were almost empty. Hanging down, the person hit the wall with a bang, and the bones and internal organs were in excruciating pain.

"Cough cough cough."

Dazai’s cough is hoarse. His body is not weak, but he is not strong either. At least he is not as strong as Stein. As far as position is concerned, he is absolutely weak now, but Stein always feels that Dazai is still superior. Yes, he looked from above, despising himself.

"I'm a hero." He couldn't help refuting with a hoarse voice. "Everything I did was to make them realize that most heroes in this society are disqualified." He said, "I'm the hero." True heir to the will of Achilles."

The posture of being stuck in the throat was very bad, and it became inconvenient to speak, and Dazai's voice became a little weak: "It's so pitiful." He said, "You know, you are the one Achilles hates the most." Kind of people, killing indiscriminately, committing crimes, and finding reasons for themselves.”

His last words were like a judgment from the gods.

"If he was still alive, he would definitely kill you."

His hands tightened, and Dazai could barely breathe, but his eyes were still clear, because they were too clear, too rational, and too mocking, which made Stein, the perpetrator, feel suffocated for a while, those eyes seemed to be able to speak .

[Do you want to kill me?Then come on, tighten your fingers so that the air cannot penetrate into my mouth and nose, or just cut off my bones neatly. You only need to use a little force with your index finger, and a new life will be ruined. Your men, haven't you used such techniques countless times in the past to ruin the lives of heroes? ]

[In the final analysis, those heroes are just people who have nothing to do with you, they just become the ones who disagree with the belief of the hero killer, and I have denied your belief from the beginning to the end, shattered your efforts, and my eyes are full of disapproval. Your disdain and contempt are basically the two opposites to you. ]

[So do not hesitate, do not hesitate, take my life with your hand. ]

Dazai said to Stein in a hoarse and weak voice:

"Kill me, fulfill me."

[Body: Osamu Dazai]
