[Comprehensive] How to kill a rabid dog gently

"Tsk."

Cheng looked up from the book, not surprisingly, what she saw was an irritable face.

Probably because of the dead handle wooden hanging who got stuck somewhere again, he pushed the button hard, but the fate of defeat still did not change.His hand holding the game console was violent, as if he was about to smash it into the corner in the next second.

But just a second before he let go, Shikuraki barely suppressed the desire to destroy, and just threw it on the table impatiently.

Cheng looked at the game console that survived the disaster for a while, then turned his gaze to Shikuragi.

"It's better than..."

Shigaraki didn't wait for her to finish, and pushed the game console over angrily. Cheng closed the book and put it aside, and when he picked up the game console, he realized that he didn't understand such a process. Already starting to feel used to it.

When Cheng tried to pass the level that caused Niugaraki to hit a wall, Niokaragi opened the book that Cheng brought today in boredom.

Compared with the situation in the past, this is a rather perverted scene.

""Supernormal Dawn"...is this kind of boring book again."

Even so, Nekuragi followed the place where Cheng had made a bookmark and continued to read.

"Do you know about the Extraordinary Dawn, Dead Handwood?"

Cheng asked while looking at the screen intently.

"...That's sort of it." He said, "The so-called supernormal dawn period, that is, because of the sudden appearance of personality, the society entered a chaotic stage, and then a leader appeared in this stage..."

Shigaraki suddenly stopped talking, and the person who made him awe came to his mind, which is why he understood this stage... That man left a deep imprint on this stage.

"There is no relevant record of him in the official documents, so it is considered to be just a fabricated legend..." Cheng looked up at him in surprise, "And, even in various rumors, he is portrayed as extremely evil This is the first time I've heard the word 'leader'...can you tell me your point of view?"

This is one of the secrets that should be kept secret.

It was the right choice to end the conversation here. Akaragi understood this matter rationally, but under the gaze of the other party, he was driven by some kind of force and expressed his true thoughts.

"Because he is strong enough."

Dead Karaki said.

"His power and terror far exceed the imagination of ordinary people, so whether he is righteous or evil, it does not prevent him from becoming a leader."

"You think so..."

Cheng thought about it.

"I don't disagree with your point of view, but I think that if he really exists and his influence continues to this day, it is probably not enough to rely on his individual strength-according to rumors, he has a large number of followers, then at least , he was a man who knew how to read the heart."

"..."

Not paying particular attention to Nikugaraki's silence, Cheng brought the topic back to "Supernormal Dawn".

"Because the personality just appeared at that time, it was called 'Dawn', but now, the personality society is relatively mature, and a relatively stable hero system has also been established..."

"I hate heroes."

When this word was said, Shizuoki's expression suddenly became gloomy.

"why?"

Cheng asked him softly.

"Why, let's say, these people outside, why can one or two of them live with peace of mind—"

Nekuragi laughed instead, turning his face out of the window.

"Obviously just a little accident, the happiness in front of these people will be completely shattered, but they enjoy happiness numbly... This is really unpleasant, and it is the hero who caused all this."

"These self-proclaimed maintainers of stability actually do nothing but bring this disgusting sight."

"So, I don't just hate heroes, I also hate these people's hypocritical happiness."

"Every second, I want to destroy it all... no."

Ikukaragi said that his eyes fell on Cheng's face, guessing the panic or disgusted expression she would show, and he felt a certain pleasure of viciously smashing expensive and delicate and fragile works of art.

"I'm going to do it one day, and I'm going to bring order down."

--"Then what."

However, what he heard was not a cracking sound.

Dead handle wood began to realize that it was not as fragile as he had imagined.

"……what are you saying?"

"I'm asking, and then, Siganmu?" She actually smiled slightly, "As you said, after overthrowing the existing order, what do you want to build in the ruins?"

"I……"

This was a problem that Shikuraki hadn't considered at all, and destruction was the end of his vision.

"Haven't you thought about it?" Cheng's eyes showed a trace of disappointment, "Then you are just a child, when you are annoyed, you always feel that you can do everything, and all your actions are just In order to vent dissatisfaction, the so-called 'disruption of order' is just talk..."

"no!"

Shikaragi stood up suddenly, and the panicked person became himself at this time.

"I will definitely do it, as long as there is—"

As long as there is a teacher to help!

What Cheng just said suddenly flashed in Shizuoki's mind, who was about to tell her this.

"You're just a kid," she said.

When being denied, the first reaction is to seek the shelter of a more powerful existence, and even Niigaragi can't tell that this is not the behavior of a child.

"Nikuragi, I'm not belittling your thoughts."

She raised her face slightly, and looked seriously into the young man's dazed eyes.

"I don't entirely think your ideas are evil or unrealistic... The only thing that makes me think you are naive is just your self-positioning."

Cheng said.

"When you say you want to overthrow order, you put yourself in the position of an outsider...Order is not unchallengeable, in fact, in any form of human history that I have seen, it is constantly changing."

"However, there has never been a drastic change that was not based on the will of the group of 'human beings'... Deadwood, it has never been a single individual that destroyed it, even a god—and you, you have been there since the beginning Refusing to understand that group."

Sikuanmu suddenly tightened his fingers, as if a gun was pressed against his chest, he asked word by word.

"So, what am I going to do?"

His pupils are red, different from the other boy, his red is deep and muddy, but also faintly brewing a storm-like will.

Those are a pair of red eyes that can make people feel frightened when looking directly at them, like a chaotic abyss surging at the same time.

But from Cheng's point of view, it was just a barrier built for himself by a little boy who was hiding and crying.

"You say you hate the happiness of common people."

So, she told each other.

"Please, start to understand from this point."

——"The so-called happiness."

Although Shigaraki always looked unhappy, Kurogi thinks that he is too silent today.

"Shikuraki, you..."

When he finally decided to ask, the display screen used to communicate with afo lit up. AFO's instructions are always in the first order, and everything must be compromised to it... so he immediately stopped talking.

When Shikuragi came to the screen, an image from another hidden place gradually took shape, and even though he was heavily wrapped in bandages, the figure of afo still had a terrifying and majestic figure appeared in front of them.

The acuity of the other party was also terrifying. In just a few words of conversation, afo suddenly changed the subject.

"What's the matter, Shizuru, did something special happen today?"

"..."

He was silent for a while.

"there is nothing."

afo doesn't talk anymore.He has lived for a long time, I don't know whether it is luck or misfortune, some characteristics of him have become more and more obvious after the years and blood.

For example, when Niigaragi faced Cheng, he blurted out that afo has the "leadership" temperament.

He didn't need to use words, or even look, to let everyone present understand his intentions.

He wanted to know about it, specifically.

This cannot be disobeyed.

Shizuoki hesitated for a while, but finally spoke.

"I met a strange person."

After Nikuragi finished his narrative, afo fell into thought.

But his thinking didn't last long, and soon, Afo said lightly: "I understand, don't worry about it, just do what you want as usual."

There was no other object mentioned in his words, which made Sigang Muhang unconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

Afo expressed that he wanted to have a private talk with Black Mist again, so Shigaraki left the bar alone.

Heiwu glanced at his back in disapproval, but due to the educational purpose of afo, he didn't point fingers at Sigangmu.

After reporting the basic situation as usual, Hei Wu still hesitated to ask about what happened just now.

"Do you think it is necessary for us to..."

"Are you referring to the person that Niigaragi said?" Afo laughed lowly, "Heiwu, have you noticed that the child has already started to think, and this is the first time he has thought about something other than destruction. "

"Yes, it is."

"I have high expectations for him, but I also understand that excessive protection is unreasonable. For him, this may be an opportunity to grow... just wait and see what happens."

He said.

"Of course, this is based on the fact that the child is growing in the direction I expect - what I expect, pure twist and evil."

"what do you mean……?"

"If unnecessary branches and leaves grow..."

Afo's voice actually has the meaning of kindness.

"Let us cut them off one by one."

At dusk, even the afterglow reflected on the river surface was stained with nostalgic fireworks by the returning crowd.

At this moment, it seems that the only dead handle in the world is aimless.

Like many times in the past, he observed everyone in the crowd with a happy expression on his face, but he used to imagine how to abruptly destroy such a scene and let their happiness be eroded by fear, this time, he tried Put yourself into a scene like this.

—and yet he failed.

Finally, Sigang Muhang realized that he could no longer associate himself with "happiness" since a long time ago.

He was disappointed at first, then exasperated, and it made him feel like he had lost a crucial game, and to the woman who had denied him.

Then, he began to think of——

Could it be that this is just her lie, like those heroes, she also deceived herself.

"In that case, let's try it."

Shikuraki was talking to himself.

Half of his actions are always driven by anger, and the other half are all kinds of other negative emotions. They are always mixed together, which makes Shikaki not immediately notice the difference this time.

Among the poisonous tides colliding with each other among the dark reefs, there is a little glimmer of light that drifts with the current.

That's what's at the bottom of Pandora's box, along with the curse.

When Cheng received the text message, he was putting the cleaned bowls into the cupboard.At first she just opened the mailbox as usual, and the photo that came with the text message popped up.

In the next second, she accidentally broke the bowl.

The photo is blurry, but a severed hand can still be seen.

——Come to the place in the picture alone, or kill him.

It was a grim and imperious message that offered neither a specific location nor who the “he” in the sentence actually was.

Cheng carefully checked every detail in the photo, and finally found a blurry shop sign in the corner.

This is a spot located near a coffee shop.

"Deadwood...?"

She muttered to herself, without any further hesitation, she acted immediately.

"It's dead wood."

The reply arrived within 3 minutes.

"I will come."

- "Please make sure not to hurt him."
