[JOJO] BOSS Survival Diary

369

About this, to be honest... I was quite surprised.

Risut, who is afraid of me, shouldn't want to take the initiative to meet me-this is as strange as the e-mail he sent me before.

It even made me feel like there was a conspiracy.

This man, Krisut... If he wanted to assassinate me, he wouldn't just make such a simple move.

Forget it.

I checked my email for a while, and put my phone in my pocket.

Just let me see... what he wants to do.

370

There is still plenty of time, and I can even communicate with Bugarati on follow-up questions.

He got into shape very quickly.

even--

"It's amazing," Bucciarati said. "You were originally...Maniaco's cadre."

...can still joke like that.

This is different from when I accepted that I was a cadre.

It seems to be expressing fate.

"Now I am your cadre."

I paused and added something.

"Though...temporary."

...Fate?

To be honest, I don't really like that word.

Sounds as bad as fate.

Although I took over Polpo's job, I couldn't stay in prison like him.I bought a villa in Naples - but it doesn't look very suitable for work either.

It's too far from the city, which is a little inconvenient.

There are a lot of things to deal with this month, and I can't even sleep late.

I am slowly removing the guys who are controlled by the granulation, and at the same time giving them a little lesson so that they don't dare to violate the rules again.

And staying in Naples directly allowed me to contact the Bugarati team for a longer time.

...really.

I exhale.

After everything is over, I have to find a way to erase this identity.

371

Risut asked me to set the location—I naturally hoped that it would be somewhere where there were not many people.

At least not in Naples.

There are too many acquaintances here.

...but that's not realistic, I just took over Polpo's job, and I can't go away for a while, not to mention the train going back and forth has to kill several hours of my time.

I set the place at the church in Naples, at night.

As for the action... I leave it to Dobbio.

Risut has never seen my face, but he knows the fact that I am one with Dobbio.And Dobio also knows this now-in order to protect me, he will not fight like before unless he has my permission.

Dobio is my most trusted subordinate, but occasionally he is stubborn and embarrassing me. He becomes irritable and fights and refuses to escape or wait for me.

I don't like being the waiting party very much, so Dobbio didn't enter the church until the time was running out.

The church is cold and empty in the middle of the night, and the moonlight shines through the colored windows, reflecting wonderful colors.Through Dobbio's sight, I saw Risut standing in front of the huge cross, facing the church door, and naturally caught Dobbio as he entered the church for the first time.

"...Risut Nero."

Dobbio spoke.

"BOSS asked me to ask you—why do you want to see him?"

372

Risut wasn't going to fight.

I know this very well... that collar is still reliable, even if it is for the entire assassination team, he will never make such a choice.

The man is cautious and mature.

This is his advantage.

But under the premise of knowing the future, this can only become his burden.

That's why I wondered why he wanted to see me.

I saw him go down the two not so high stairs in silence.

His strangely colored eyes looked at Tobio, the scarlet hidden in the pitch-black sclera was blurred under the moonlight.He walked to a position about ten meters away from Dobby Ou and stopped.

We are all out of range of each other.

No.

Maybe not out of range of each other.

If I use the Crimson King to leap time, this is only ten meters... Risut is still within my range.

He does not know this.

Didn't know the Crimson King was able to leap through time.

"Let me make sure first." Risut said, "I'm talking to you...the boss can indeed hear you, can't you?"

"Well, I'll make sure the phone is connected." Dobbio held the phone to his ear, "Don't answer questions with questions, Risut Nero."

"..."

I can indeed hear it.

If the body is completely handed over to Dobio, I will not be able to share sight, hearing or even perception with him at all, but when Dobio and I are in a semi-handover state, this is not a problem.

Of course... Dobbio didn't realize this.

I looked at Risut, waiting for his next words.

But - it's really high.

The 16-year-old Risut is still a normal figure, but now he is actually more than two meters.

Dobbio had to look up at him... Fortunately, this distance didn't have to be so.

He looked at this side, and it took a while before he spoke——

"Then... I hope you can listen to my reasoning, Boss."

373

I wouldn't mind listening to it, but—

"About...twelve or thirteen years ago." Risut said, "I met a man."

"..."

——This beginning immediately reminded me of the time I asked DIO to lead the way.

No, no.

calm down.

Risut, unlike Polnareff, does not have so many points to distort history.

Even if he had met me, he had only met "Maniaco", and he had gotten the badge of the organization earlier—but he didn't join the organization at that time.

That's all.

I don't recall any more changes.

Dobbio didn't speak.

"I met this man in Sicily who seemed to be a traveler and asked me for directions. It's no big deal... I meet this kind of traveler every year, I don't know the way so I need a guide, but he happened to ask It's just me."

He said.

"Then...he chased off the bastards who were trying to take my tips."

"..."

"No big deal so far, but the bastard went berserk when he was sent to the organ-trafficking clinic. He rushed out and tried to attack the man—" He lowered his voice, "and he was killed."

This is a fact.

And when he started telling the story, I roughly guessed what he was going to say.

I didn't alternate Dobbio, however.

I'd like to hear...how he plans to end this story after it's told.

"Suddenly there was a big hole in his abdomen...it seemed to be pierced by something, and the blood kept flowing, and the man just stood there, seemingly doing nothing."

"..."

"The man put my hat on, as if to hide something, and asked me if I... saw anything."

"..."

"And nearly a month ago—the man died in Sicily."

"..."

The metal ball on his hat reflected the moonlight, cold as a blade, cutting him apart as he stood there.

"BOSS."

He said.

"'Maniaco'... is that your pseudonym? "

374

He guessed it.

From the moment he started telling this short story, I knew he was guessing.

but--

"Risut." I said through Dobbio's mouth, "Why do you think so?"

I'm giving him a chance.

Tell me about it, Risut.

"...Yes, it's not a big deal, why do I feel that way? After all, the boss has used countless aliases, and even the ones left for former women are "Solit Nasso" pseudonym. He took a deep breath. "But your willingness to come to see me proves it, doesn't it?" "

"..."

"In the beginning, it was just a sense of disobedience, and the matter of "cleaning up" has been doing since the enthusiasm grew.Investigating your identity will always be taboo and any attempt to do so will be rooted out. He lowered his eyelids, "But... not all of the roles require you to handle them yourself."Most of the time, you will give it to your subordinates, who will not seek any information about you from the traitors, nor dare to do so. "

indeed.

It would be too bad if every time you clean up you need to clear out the minions who have gone on missions... that's too bad.

I only recovered "Maniaco" - he wanted to say so.

"Just that?" I asked.

"...Of course, there are other things." Risut continued, "For example, he doesn't want his hair to be seen—for example, your order is...to recover the corpse. "

... ahhh.

It turned out to be the case.

Apart from the cover-up at that time, when I let the assassination team carry out the task, I "cleaned up" one of them as "Maniaco", so the remaining one and Maniaco were only two people—of course Only two corpses need to be recovered.

But this looked too suspicious, even if the corpse was beyond recognition, it was too suspicious.

What Risut proposed were just "points"——

Originally, these points were not loopholes, but as they merged, subtle errors occurred.

He captured the mistake by associating the man from more than ten years ago with what is happening now.

If it's an ordinary person, knowing these "points" won't matter, but Risut...

He strung them together cautiously and boldly.

How outstanding this man is... He was able to solve the mystery about me through a battle with Dobio, and now he has guessed the truth of this identity by grasping these clues.

"—What a boldness, Risut."

I'm never stingy with compliments.

"But... have you ever thought about the consequences of saying this?"

375

So what if we know?

It was just an abandoned false identity, and even knowing it would be of no use.Can neither know my real face nor my name.

That identity has been completely destroyed and has no chance of being used again.

The safe bet would have been to keep this speculation to myself...not say it to my face.

And I believe...he knows it too.

Risut fell silent.

After a long time, he whispered:

"...Really. I was just skeptical at first, but after hearing your reply, I finally confirmed it."

I don't think so.

Even if I categorically deny it... the information that has been uncovered has been confirmed, such a move is meaningless.

If it was just intended to deceive me, it would not be in line with his character.

"For me...the future is just a dream—maybe that dream is too real, but for the present, it really hasn't happened."

He said.

"Even...to you who also know that dream, it's just a joke."

"..."

I didn't answer him.

After all, I am not in the same state as him... He said it was a dream, but it was actually a reality that happened to him.But for me, it's really just a dream.

An illusory dream that never happened.

... ahhh.

I remembered.

Risut is also a special case.

"Special cases" other than the Araki-sou group and Horn Hoss.

In his eyes, the world whose history has been distorted...what is it like?

And what kind of memory does he have——

"I was confused for a while - not knowing... which one was real."

He continued.

"Boss...has the same confusion? I would think so."

——What kind of memory do you have?

— This really made me curious.

only......

"Risut."

I chuckled low, took over the body, and spoke before the changes began.

"You know...you know—what the consequences of doing this are."

You know what the consequences of such a confession are.

Yes - you know very well.

You know very well... I will not tolerate any danger.

It was generosity and playfulness to let you live back then, but there was a thin veil in between, and as long as you stood behind, you were safe.

But you just picked it out——

Say you want to see me.

This tells me that there are only two consequences——

death.

Or completely, shackling that collar into his own flesh and blood.

He looked at me silently.

He couldn't see my face... The door of the church was not where the light from the stained windows could reach, and the darkness was like a dividing line across the middle of the church.

It's a fog—

But he must know that Dobbio is no longer here, and it is me standing here.

If it was Risut—if it was only Risut, he would probably try to assassinate me.

Yes, he even... almost made it once.

But he's not just Risut.

He had had that dream and reached that reality.

He still misses this "family", misses the assassination team.

He couldn't do that—just as he couldn't tell Polnareff any more about me.

--Is it right?Risut.

I wait for his reaction.

And he did give the answer I wanted.

He lowered his eyelids, but did not cover his beautifully colored eyes.

Docile and calm.

"Well, I know, BOSS."

— just like the lamb I saw at that time.

The author has something to say: two in one, plus 9-2=7! wryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! ! !

Originally, I didn't want to combine two into one, but I don't know where to divide it.

I should talk about the fusion principle of Stars and Arrows. Fusion is the process of [the past] changing [to the present], that is, the history of the earlier world overwrites the history of the later world, and the past of DIO will overwrite it. The boss's past, but the [now] of the boss's time will not change.

In other words, covering the past will not change the fact that [now] has happened. Strictly speaking, it is the boss who has passed through for more than a year.

Then [the progress until now] will be replaced based on the [changed person].

In other words, what the [boss in the unknown history] of the merged world does is based on the [current boss].

…but because the results are now unchanged, this benchmark will be biased.

To put it simply, the topic that Xingxingjian got is to find the [process] given the [past] and [present], with the [present] and [current boss] as the quantification.

But because [now] there are many [results] caused by the original boss...it directly leads to weird scripts that everyone gets.

Kang Kangbobo will understand.

The boss is still wandering around at a time (literally) that he doesn't know...

The captain also has a script

Otherwise, why is he so obedient.

Overlord ticket thanks tomorrow
