"What are little girls made of? Sugar and spices, and all good things." When Alice, who was holding "Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes", read this passage in a lovely and soft voice, the boy beside him covered his mouth Laughing out loud with my belly in my stomach.

Alice, who was blond and as cute as a doll in the window, turned her head and looked at Osamu Dazai, the little boy with her master, a little angrily.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it." The black-haired boy covered in bandages raised his hand insincerely.

Compared with the cute and lively Alice, Osamu Dazai looked extremely gloomy and thin. When lying on the table boneless, his black hair was scattered with bandages, and there was a subtle sense of treachery on his pale face.

Judging only by the appearance, Osamu Dazai and Alice are about the same age, but they are almost diametrically opposite existences.

Alice glared at him, and continued to sit on the ground, angrily looking at her own "Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes", letting the ruffled dress she was wearing be stained with dust.

Alice doesn't like him. Let's not mention Dazai Osamu's bad character that often scares her. Let's just say that the other party's supernatural power is "disqualification in the world". Mori Ogai's body.

What I want to mention here is that in fact, every time Mori Ogai touches Osamu Dazai, Alice as his supernatural ability will be nullified.

Although neutralized, returning to Mori Ogai's body does not mean death.In other words, as long as Mori Ogai, the holder of the supernatural ability, does not die, "Alice" will not die.But Alice still hated that feeling very much.

Just like when it was cut into pieces, every time it was nullified, Alice could feel her soft blond hair, blue eyes, soft lips, and fair skin falling off bit by bit like tree bark. until it completely dissipates.

As a supernatural Alice, she doesn't feel pain. All she has is the fighting instinct that Mori Ogai gave her.

Her beautiful blond hair, jewel-like eyes, cute appearance and little devil character are all set by Mori Ogai.Alice itself is just a blank piece of paper, on which the owner of the power holder, Mori Ogai, scribbles and manipulates the marionettes to dance.

Alice is a doll without "self-awareness".

...Even so, every time Alice feels that her skin as a "human" is shattered a little bit, she always feels empty in her heart.

Alice couldn't understand what kind of mood this was, but it was clear that she hated Osamu Dazai very much.Unless it was Mori Ogai's request, Alice would immediately hide from Osamu Dazai as soon as she saw him.

I don't know if it's because watching Alice's reaction is very interesting, Osamu Dazai always pretended that he didn't notice her resistance and moved to Alice's side. Sisi was so frightened that she yelled and ran to sue Mori Ogai.

At this time, Mori Ogai would always helplessly ask Osamu Dazai not to scare Alice, like an old father who has a headache because the children in the family are always arguing.

Osamu Dazai would usually respond nonchalantly, and wait until Alice came to complain next time.

It was the same this time, perhaps in order to continue to cause trouble for Alice, Dazai Osamu did not leave, he leaned over and stood beside Alice.

"Little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice." asked the boy in a white shirt and black shorts. "And what about little boys?"

Although Alice didn't like him, she still hummed, continued flipping through the book, and replied in a tender and soft childlike voice: "The little boy is made of frogs, snails, and puppy tails."

Osamu Dazai blinked, his hair smelled of damp, he probably committed suicide in another river just now.After a while, he laughed softly.

"Frogs and snails, and a puppy's tail? It's not bad, hahaha." Dazai Osamu was obviously smiling, but his naked eyes were dark and empty, revealing a faint madness.

In the end, he seemed to be tired of laughing, curled up and lowered his head, and let out a dry laugh or two.The laughter seemed to emanate from a shriveled corpse.

Of course Alice knew why he laughed.After all, no matter how you look at it, Osamu Dazai has nothing to do with these things.

So what is Osamu Dazai made of?Alice thought he was probably made of phlox, shards of glass, and expired painkillers.

Blood, tears, and life flowed out of the black hole in that body, leaving only an empty shell with a bright surface but already broken, struggling to breathe.

Thinking of this, Alice stretched out her hand involuntarily, as if she wanted to touch Osamu Dazai.

The black-haired boy curled up, Alice couldn't see his expression clearly, maybe he was smiling or maybe he had no expression at all.

When she stretched her hand halfway, Alice suddenly realized what she wanted to do. At that moment, her eyes widened and her body froze.

what is she doing?Want to reach out and touch Osamu Dazai?You must know that his superhuman ability "Disqualification in the World" will nullify her.

——Alice disappears the moment she touches it.

Alice pursed her lips and retracted her outstretched hand.

After the two were silent for a while, Osamu Dazai suddenly raised his head and asked, "What about you, Alice? What are you made of?"

What is Alice made of?This is really a strange question.

The supernatural ability was naturally made by her master.No matter how beautiful and vivid dolls are, they are also made by puppet masters.

However, Osamu Dazai asked with such calm eyes, as if this is not an absurd question, but a question that needs to be asked carefully.

Alice opened her mouth, but couldn't answer anything, hugged her "Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes" tightly, and left there as if to escape.

What happened that day did not leave a deep shadow in Alice's heart. They were like toys that had been forgotten by their owners, and were thrown aside at random until someone woke them up here.

And that day came when Osamu Dazai defected.

Alice is her own superpower, and it is impossible for Mori Ogai to hide anything from her, so she also knows what Rintaro has done.

After losing his best friend, Osamu Dazai stood expressionlessly under the Hong Kong Building.The wind was strong that day, blowing the black coat he was wearing.

Alice knelt in front of the glass window, resting her hands on the cold glass, quietly watching Osamu Dazai below with non-human eyesight.

Although it is Mori Ogai's ability, Alice does not need to stay by his side all the time, she can stay away from him by a certain distance.Moreover, when Mori Ogai is in danger, Alice can go back in an instant.

Of course, it is not needed at the moment.

Even without looking back, Alice could feel that Mori Ogai was sitting in the chief's office, and this man was quietly looking at Osamu Dazai downstairs just like Alice.

For some reason, Alice sensed that the other party was about to leave the Port Mafia, and subconsciously ran out to Osamu Dazai.Mori Ogai did not stop, perhaps acquiescing to her behavior.

"Are you leaving?" Alice in a small skirt asked with an innocent smile.

Osamu Dazai's eyes darkened, maybe he was thinking whether to touch her and bring Alice back to Mori Ogai?He should hate her, after all, Alice's master was the one who indirectly killed Osamu Dazai's close friend.

But Osamu Dazai just raised his hand, and then took it back, without touching Alice.

"Yes." He replied, "I'm leaving here."

At this time, Alice suddenly found that the little boy in her memory had grown into a tall man. The bandage wrapped around his right eye disappeared for some reason, and the darkness in his eyes also disappeared.

Alice will not grow up as a supernatural power, or in other words, Mori Ogai wants her to be an adult, and she is an adult.Mori Ogai wanted her to be in the shape of a child, so Alice would never grow up for the rest of her life.

She raised her head, looked at the man she had known for several years, and asked, "Then where are you going?"

Originally, Alice thought that he would not answer, but Dazai Osamu was just taken aback for a moment, and then smiled.

"The one who went to save people." He said so.

...Laughed.

It's not the pain or disappointment, crazy laugh like before, but a simple and pure smile.

Alice looked at Osamu Dazai in a daze.

The little boy in my memory who was made of oleander, glass shards and expired painkillers suddenly disappeared, leaving only this man made of photos, tender promises and a bright future.

"Goodbye, Alice." Osamu Dazai said softly in a sigh-like voice.

After he leaves this time, they may never see each other again.

So Alice stretched out her hand, subconsciously wanted to pull him, then retracted her hand, saying, "Goodbye, Dazai."

Osamu Dazai left, he took off the black coat Mori Ogai gave him, and left without looking back.

Alice stood where she was, quietly watching his leaving back.

"......"

At that moment, Alice suddenly wanted to run over and hug him, even if it would dissipate the moment she touched Osamu Dazai.

She wanted to stretch out her hands and hug that person.

The blond girl with supernatural powers touched her chest unconsciously. She didn't have a heart, so she didn't feel a heartbeat when she touched it.

But why?why she-

"Crack, click", the non-existent clock on the chest turned, and the little heart that belonged to the puppet lady suddenly beat.

That was the moment when the supernatural power given the name Alice was born as a "human".

The author has something to say: I really have a fascination with describing the moment when a non-human becomes a human (x)
