God's Souvenir

"So it was useless to go out in the end." Himi Tsuruhara put one hand in his pocket, and held the envelope with two Ferris wheel tickets in the other hand.

There were a lot of people on the commercial street just after nightfall.Tsuruhara Himi, who was back to being alone again, walked through the crowd alone, walking aimlessly for a long distance before realizing the reason why there were so many people.

"It turned out to be the weekend, and everyone is on holiday happily." He stood on the side of the road and stopped walking, his eyes reflected the streets with people coming and going, and he was desolate and lonely. "Happiness belongs to others, and I Only worthy of looking up in the dark sewers. It's too bad."

The corner of his clothes was pulled.

"Arnold, big brother. Are you in a bad mood?" The petite girl didn't let go of the hand that held the hem of his clothes, and put the other hand in front of him, "I have magic here that can make you feel better." !"

She spread out her palm, and there was a beautiful star candy lying quietly on it.

Tsuruhara Hikami blinked and said for a long time, "...Oh?"

He leaned down and picked up the star candy in the girl's hand.The girl with blue-purple hair looked at him with a smile: "Mom said, eat a piece of candy when you are unhappy, and you will feel better."

"My mother also said so." Tsuruhara Hiken held the candy stick and looked carefully at the delicate and beautiful candies.

After the girl delivered the candy, her smile became even sweeter: "This is my last star candy, I hope it can make you happy, big brother."

"Aoi!" The boy with blue-purple hair not far away waved to her.

The two looked at the voice.The girl named "Aoi" said happily: "My brother is calling me. Let's part now, big brother."

"Goodbye." Tsuruhara Himi said softly, "Thank you for the candy, Engel."

The girl who ran towards her brother turned her head and waved to him.

Tsuruhara Himi stood there without moving, but smiled at her with a deliberately bright smile.Then he watched the girl who was destined to be different from him and followed his brother away.

The two straight lines intersect by chance at the side of the road, but they will soon diverge.And get farther and farther away.

The blue-purple-haired boy was one of the boys who took him in after he drove off the cliff, the leader.His younger sister is a lovely child, with the eyes that belong to those who live in the light, just like his elder brother.

Warm, sincere and full of hope.

They had what he had long since lost.It's enviable, but it doesn't make him yearn for it.

"Could it be that Himi-kun has met someone he likes? That's still an underage girl. Are you going to become an adult as bad as Rin Taro?" A young girl's lovely voice came from behind. .

Tsuruhara Hikami was startled.Turning around, she saw Alice wearing a small red dress with her hands behind her back looking at him.

It's just that the way he looks at him tends to be closer to looking abnormal.

"Miss Alice? Why are you here? Did you sneak out again?" Tsuruhara Hikami restrained the bright smile on his face, and his demeanor became calm and reliable, "Although I really admire the leader, that's right. But I haven’t admired to the point where even young girls have to learn.”

Alice: "That means you still haven't found the support of your soul?"

Tsuruhara Hiken suddenly opened his eyes wide, almost biting the tip of his tongue: "No, what, what? You're joking again."

Alice: "Cut."

Tsuruhara Hiken completely gave up struggling in front of her, not wanting to make any excuses for himself.He even wondered that if the leader was there, he would probably shout something like "How can a cute little girl say 'cut' Alice-chan" again.

"Play with me for a while before Rintaro finds me, Himi-kun." Alice showed a lovely smile.

When a cute little girl smiles at you sweetly, no one can refuse.If so, laugh twice.

Tsuruhara Himi silently handed the envelope containing the tickets to Alice: "Are you going here?"

Alice took the envelope, took out the ticket and looked at it carefully.

"It really is a pervert, isn't it? Himi-kun." She stood on tiptoe and showed the ticket to Tsuruhara Himi, "This is a couple's ticket. Does Himi-kun want to enter the game for a day trip?"

Wait, how did this ticket come about?Tsuruhara Higen recalled.

It seems that the enthusiastic store manager of the coffee shop asked the waitress to deliver it specially in order to persuade the quarreling couple.Since this is the case, of course it can only be a couple ticket.

The young couple who quarreled, the man, Tsuruhara Himi: "Sorry, it was my negligence."

So in the end the two couple tickets were taken back by him.Alice held each other's hands behind her back, humming a song, and walked briskly forward.Tsuruhara Hiken slowed down and followed behind her.

"At night, it should be supper time." Alice stopped in front of the crepe stand and waved to the mobile wallet behind her, "I want to eat this, Hijen-kun—please pay the bill."

Tsuruhara Hikami stepped forward to ask the boss for two crepes without complaint. While waiting, he happened to catch a glimpse of a familiar figure.

Short white hair, and that very distinctive Liu Hai.Was looking at the crepe stand across the road lost in thought.

Oops, what a coincidence.Isn't this the white kitten raised by Dazai?

After taking the crepe made by the boss and handing it to Alice, Hirumi Tsuruhara said, "Boss, make another one."

Alice also spotted the young man across the road, took a bite of the crepe and said, "It's him. I met him with Lin Taro before, and it is said that he bravely got through the difficulties with Lin Taro."

"Huh? What's the problem?" Hiken Tsuruhara took the crepe, followed Alice a few steps to the side, and asked.

"It's not a big deal. It's just being accidentally injured by the little girl in the group and getting closer to a different dimension. It's already passed, and it doesn't have much impact."

"Why don't I know about this kind of thing?! Everyone in the assassination team is dead? How can you let the leader get close to the fleas of the group! Who can take responsibility for this group of idiots if something goes wrong? They must be sent to the bottom to sweep the streets!" "Tsuruhara Hikami burst out instantly, his eyes were so fierce that he seemed to want to eat people, "Wait, who?"

The person who just made the emotionally charged speech of the vicious party froze in place.

Holding the crepe in one hand, Alice showed a coquettish and dissatisfied expression behind him: "Rintaro found me so quickly, the fun suddenly became less."

"Alice-chan—I'm so worried that I'm going to die!" The middle-aged doctor in a white coat stepped forward from behind Himi Tsuruhara, squatted down and waved his hands to Alice to express his concern.

"——Leader?" Hiruki Tsuruhara turned pale.

Ruined.He didn't look stable in the first place, and now when he was wearing normal clothes, he still didn't wear the gold-rimmed glasses that are always necessary to see the leader.Worse still was the irascible remarks just now.

—It's all ruined.He has worked so hard to create an image that is more dedicated than Dazai, especially as reliable as Mr. Hirotsu.

You can tell from his expression what messed things he is thinking about right now, Mori Ogai: "It's not that serious, is it, Himi-kun? You're completely still, huh?"

Tsuruhara Hiken blinked his eyes with difficulty, as if he hadn't recovered from the huge blow he had given himself.

"Can you give me the crepe on your right hand?" Mori Ogai asked.

Tsuruhara Himi mechanically handed out the crepe on his right hand.

"Give me the one on the left hand too?"

left hand.

Tsuruhara Hiken didn't react until his hands were all empty.He looked dully at his empty hands.

He held the crepe in one hand and handed it over.In the other hand, Mori Ogai also held the crepe that he had asked for from Tsuruhara Higen earlier, and he said with an amiable smile: "Finally recovered, Himi-kun. Although I don't know you What are you thinking, but it’s not good to scare yourself like this all the time.”

Tsuruhara Hikami took the crepe that Mori Ogai handed over, turned his head and took a bite to hide his unease.

"No, are you scaring yourself?" He said vaguely.

On that failed date in the afternoon, what Lin Xianming said suddenly rang in his ears repeatedly.

——But as long as there is no problem in the mind, all you can think of is to pursue the client, right?

——Pursue the parties.Party.people.

The face of the young man, who was not at ease at first, suddenly turned red, and he was only one step away from the heat that could be emitted from the top of his head.

Although it is true that he has no superfluous thoughts on the leader, but the idea of ​​pursuing the other party really makes people feel blush just in retrospect.

Mori Ogai looked at his subordinates beside him and blushed inexplicably, and said in surprise, "Hinami-kun, what's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing! Maybe it's too cold and I have a fever. I'll rebuild my immune system later and it will be fine." Tsuruhara Hiken blurted out without thinking.

Alice, who was being held by Mori Ogai, giggled.

Mori Ogai felt the temperature not enough to make people catch a cold, and sympathetically ignored the problem that Tsuruhara Hinami's physique would not get sick at all, and cared about his subordinates: "You should also pay attention to keeping warm at ordinary times. , Himi-kun. After all, being sick is a difficult thing.”

Tsuruhara Hikami absent-mindedly responded.

The people watching the crepe stand across the road have long since disappeared.Tsuruhara Hiken also completely forgot that the purpose of buying an extra crepe was to talk to Renhu and mock him by the way.Even the appearance of the human tiger was completely forgotten by the brain that loves the new and dislikes the old.

An ordinary middle-aged man, a young man with long hair and a handsome face like a mixed race, and a young girl with blond hair and blue eyes.Such a combination looks very strange on the commercial street at night.

Alice complained without saving any face for Mori Ogai: "Walking with Himi-kun, the middle-aged uncle who hasn't taken care of himself is even more ordinary."

"It's too much." Mori Ogai retorted in a complaining tone, "It's obvious that Himi-kun is too delicate. Speaking of which, Germans seem to be like this, right?"

"Huh? Can this also be explained by the sophistication of the Germans?" Tsuruhara Hinami was puzzled.

"There is nothing wrong with it. The reason why I am ordinary is that Himi-kun's appearance is too exquisite, not my negligence." Mori Ogai fooled him at all, "and in the eye-catching Next to Himi-kun, no matter how ordinary I am, I will become extraordinary."

"So whether I'm ignored or noticed, it's Himi-kun's fault. It's not my fault."

Tsuruhara Hiken didn't judge the truth of the other party's words at all, but listened carefully to Mori Ogai's words, and fully accepted the statement.Even the discomfort caused by the thought of pursuing Mori Ogai just now was completely forgotten by him.

"Hinami-kun is such an idiot. Still a big idiot." Alice said quietly, "So, Yaga—Rin Taro."

"Huh? Alice-chan—so where did the final conclusion come from?"
