iceberg principle

Killers don't need friends?Probably... Friends, that kind of ambiguous existence may be the greatest benefit, but it may also become the biggest weakness of a killer.Even, betrayal from a friend is far more terrifying than an enemy.That's why Yier fans restrained all their emotions and became a money-making machine that doesn't care about anything but family and nuns?

She felt that based on the gangster movies she had seen in her previous life, it was actually easy to come to this conclusion.In terms of difference, police and gangster films are an artistic expression higher than life, but the contradiction in front of you is a real sorrow carved into the bone marrow...

【However, what does this have to do with me? 】

Realizing that she had unconsciously looked at the man like a big black cat for a long time, she looked away in a panic and stared at her scarred toes.

【I'm just a passerby who inadvertently broke in...】

Her bright eyes began to dim, and the white canvas shoes wrapped around the slender toes could not be seen in the original color, stained with muddy water and blood, which belonged to the past, and finally also stained the color of tears——

【Here, nothing belongs to me...】

…………

She was honored by the "brother training brother" and obtained the hunter certificate without any effort.Soon, she passed the training and left the examination venue.

It wasn't until she embarked on a solo journey again that she later realized that this big black cat-like existence had unknowingly occupied too much of her mind.

However, this did not offend her.

She was just walking alone in this world, observing everything with a calm, indifferent and cold gaze was like watching a movie.Then, occasionally I would think of that man who was similar to me, and I would unconsciously recall every detail about him, smile unconsciously, and finally, unconsciously sink down again...

She doesn't like this kind of life, nor does she hate it.Still, she was lucky to be able to focus on things other than home.

Soon, the days of traveling alone will come to an end.She met a reading ability teacher delegated by the association, and began to learn reading from him.

That is not something that any good-for-nothing can easily learn, but now she is not even afraid of death - because death may mean a chance to go home, what is hard training?

She even asked the teacher to forcibly open her fine pores.Unfortunately or gratifyingly, she survived and did not die, and thus learned to read.

While practicing, she began to think of the man with the barren eyes more frequently—wondering whether he had experienced physical and mental torture in the same way, whether he had shed blood and tears like herself, or whether he was also like this I missed someone I didn't know very well...

Thinking about it, she would suddenly elicit a weak smile.

She even went to great lengths to find out some secret information belonging to the other party through the teacher's investigation—although she secretly despised her meaningless behavior.

Yiermi seems to be a person with telekinetic ability in the operating system.People of this school of thought generally don't care much about other people's eyes. Thinking about it this way, the appearance of his weird figure is also in line with his style...

She often thinks like this, laughs lightly, commits a little nympho, even if that good mood will soon dissipate without a trace.

For the first time, she had the feeling of wanting to look at someone—wanting to keep watching the other person’s back, witnessing everything around him, it seemed that just by looking at him, she could gain strength from him, the power to keep a person moving forward .

[That is a man who is similar to himself but very different!What a powerful existence...]

She is a little bit unwilling: she also abandons unnecessary emotions to live in the world, she is always confused, looking for the meaning of existence in contradictions; but he has already drawn a clear line between caring and indifference, living within the boundaries he has drawn. In the world, you are free, carefree and elegant.

So, after finishing the Mizumi-style, she was not surprised to find that her mind ability is the "gaze" of the trait system.

【Oh, well, at least this way...】

Thinking like this, she devoted herself to practicing, and finally mastered the activation of "Gaze", and learned to see him thousands of miles away through the invisible eyeball floating in the air.

What a monotonous man, he works every day and doesn't look for a woman. His life is the same, and he kills people with one blow. He can't play tricks, but he just likes to eat sweets? !This is so hilarious and cute...

She finally settled in a small city, using her mind ability to obtain information in exchange for living expenses.

In her spare time, she would connect with the eyeballs around Yiermi, filling her field of vision with his busy or leisurely back, and at the same time filling her entire lonely heart.Occasionally, the other party turned her head, the sharp gaze that swept over her, and the glimpse of the long hair flying in all directions, even if it was not blooming for herself, it was enough to stain her pale cheeks with blush.

################################### Ending A begins here ############# #####################

She thought that the days probably passed by like this, without hope or despair, just walking slowly to the end, and then the curtain call.However, turning points often come inadvertently, and this time is no exception.

She received a marriage proposal from a teacher of mental ability.

That is a very good person, strong, gentle, sunny.Although he is a teacher, he is only 7 years older than her. He is handsome and has a wealthy family. People's "gaze".

【Probably, it's time to conclude a contract with this world... by combining with someone. 】

Thinking of this, she accepted the other party's proposal ring with a smile, sent the ecstatic teacher away with a smile, and closed the door with a smile, but she launched "watch" on that person for the last time with tears in her eyes.

What came into view was a thin, slender figure with long black hair hanging down, like the most beautiful brocade, reflecting the dazzling sunlight.He was on his way home, briskly, without looking back.

——He watched until his ability to read was about to be exhausted, and he never looked back once.

Suddenly, a heavy sadness welled up in her heart, which made her unable to breathe.

Trembling, she stretched out her hand and clenched her fist in the void. She trembled uncontrollably, trembling, and finally tightened her fist.

At the far end, behind that person, the eyeballs that had been maintained for five years with the power of thought shattered and disappeared without a trace after the completion of this movement.As if sensing something, at the same time, Yi Ermi suddenly turned her head, her eyes wandered in the air for a long time, and finally landed on her old friend Hisoka who appeared not far behind.

【It's ridiculous... What am I looking forward to now? 】

【No, I can't watch it anymore... As a wife, I must be loyal...】

[Continuing to stare hopelessly at others is not allowed. 】

The last scene she saw before her eyeballs disappeared felt an incomparably real sadness: the man who had been staring at him for five full years had no way of remembering his own existence until now...

She covered her face, letting the cool tears flow down her cheeks and into her neckline.

"We are all a kind of people who like to draw a line in our hearts in advance. Inside the line are things that are worth waiting for all our lives, and outside the line are everything that has nothing to do with us. From the very beginning, the things inside the line are limited... For him, I have always been off-line, so it is impossible for me to have any intersection with that person."

This is the first time she has difficulty controlling her emotions, muttering to herself.

She knew that she wanted to keep guarding the line in her heart, but the long-term emptiness in the line finally had to be filled.Teacher, he is an excellent man, a good man who knows how to comfort a woman's heart, he will comfort her, he is within reach.

【I will be happy, so I will let go of everything. 】

The author has something to say:

One accidentally changed what was written before to an outrageous level, and expanded it too much. I originally planned to write only "Part [-]", but ended up writing "Part [-], Part [-]".

Personally, I think the original way of writing is not bad, and I can’t bear to give up, so I decided to write a double ending. The second half of this chapter is connected to the next chapter, which is the route to the ending A, so far first, I hope you like it.
