Anomalous Ability Named World Literature

Atobe was sent away in June, and Nakahara Xiaoxue resumed her solo state at school.

In fact, she's still very popular at school, it's just—

When Zhongyuan Xiaoxue called Atobe during the summer vacation, she said: "I only realized that not everyone is like Xiaojing."

She thought for a while, and then sighed: "I don't seem to have paid attention to what my peers are thinking, but how should I put it, everyone is quite cute."

For example, when class is divided into groups, she always subconsciously excludes her, and when all the groups are divided and she is left alone, they all apologize in a panic; she has been staring at her hair, looking like she really wants to touch it , and when she told them that they could touch whatever they wanted, they all hurriedly bowed.Some people cried inexplicably while reading, and asked her if she needed help, but she turned around and ran away holding the book.Something like that.

Atobe couldn't help being silent for a while while watching the meeting.

He recalled that after becoming friends with Xiaoxue, someone asked him how she and An Qi became friends.That's right, the students have always called Xiaoxue by such a nickname in private.

He told the truth: I discussed Nakahara Chuya's poems with her.

As a result, the number of people reading Zhongye poetry in the school suddenly increased a lot.Presumably the person Xiaoxue said who cried after reading the book was looking at Ye's collection of poems.

He didn't know why he was crying, maybe it was because of the messy Roman accent in Japanese.

Xiaoxue may not even know what a qualified Zhongyuan Zhongye she is.

—she had no idea of ​​her own popularity.

Atobe Keigo couldn't help laughing, "So you are so confused?"

His laughter is very hearty, and the company executives who come and go can't help being slightly surprised. The future owner of the Atobe Zaibatsu is still young, but he is already very calm, and his arrogant personality makes him rarely lose his temper, let alone such a wanton smile. Voice.

Xiaoxue focused on two tasks, sorted out the wrong question set, and replied: "I'm a little confused. But watching them play around like this, I think it's very good, and it feels very lively."

"Just kidding?"

"Huh? Aren't they playing around?"

"No, it's really a joke." Atobe noticed Xiaoxue's confused side and was in a good mood. He said, "To be precise, Xiaoxue, they want to play with you."

Xiaoxue froze for a moment.

She thought for a while, "Is that so?"

The phone calls between the two often didn't take too long. On the one hand, Atobe was really busy, and on the other hand, Xiaoxue was also really busy.

The meeting was about to start again, and Atobe glanced at the assistant who was standing aside respectfully waiting for him to end the call, "To be honest, I don't think it's interesting to observe the meeting like this." He can't participate in decision-making.

Xiaoxue comforted him: "It's a necessary process. In their eyes, Xiaojing is still in the stage of accumulating experience. Just like if I want to pass the test, I have to keep doing paperwork and accumulating wrong questions."

Atobe laughed again: "Didn't you get all A's in your final exam?"

"Ah, but I failed Shakespeare." In stark contrast to her final grades, she still failed Shakespeare.

She looked down at a thick collection of wrong questions, showing a loveless expression, "I will continue to study hard, Xiaojing, you should also continue to work hard."

After hanging up the phone, she casually flipped through the collection of wrong questions, and then looked at the thick stack of wrong questions of the same type on the table.Can't help but sigh tiredly.

She almost knelt down to Shakespeare.

The most painful thing for her is that there are several papers in a row, and the last essay questions are all the same topic.

——Try to interpret Shakespeare's will.

She answered all the questions, and only raised the 5 points to 6 points.

Zhongyuan Xiaoxue:? ? ?

She really doesn't understand.

Now, when she sees this question, she subconsciously has a physical headache.

There was a sound downstairs, and Xiaoxue hurriedly stepped on her slippers to go downstairs.

Could it be that Brother Zhongye or Lantang's father are back?

Not likely.

Zhong Ye has been working overtime recently, and Lan Tang is often not at home.

Because Yokohama is very unstable right now.

It is said that a certain supernatural person left behind 5000 billion black money after his death. In order to compete for this money, underground organizations in the entire Kanto region were mobilized.

At first, everyone still silently abided by the unwritten rules of the underground, but soon, as the casualties increased, hatred, retribution, and suspicion caused the already weak trust between people and organizations to completely collapse.Orderly scrambles turned into disorderly and violent wars.

Outside of Yokohama, the kingless Scepter 4 was quickly stretched after being reduced to a vassal of the King of Gold. The Red King who had just been crowned as the new king was still in shambles. Extremely fast speed is controlled.As for Yokohama, the port city of Yokohama, which is both open and exclusive, has always refused the entry of any royal power.

However, as the outside of Yokohama was suppressed forcefully, countless desperate mobs and heinous organizations swarmed into Yokohama.

Yokohama is in total chaos.

This is not what Mori Ogai wants to see.

"It's troublesome now."

The chief's office at the port mafia was shrouded in deep darkness.

Mori Ogai looked at the number of casualties in the port Mafia reported in the newspaper, and the death of the cadre "Da Zuo", with a stern expression, and folded his hands on the table. The energy and resources that the mafia has to devote are not a small number."

Osamu Dazai had a careless and indifferent face. Hearing this, he asked suspiciously: "I remember that Mr. Dazuo is the person left by the previous leader."

Mori Ogai smiled: "Wrong, Dazai-kun, he is from Port Mafia, and it was Port Mafia who trained him."

Dazai looked away uninterestedly.

Back then, Ogai Mori picked up Osamu Dazai, who had attempted suicide, and kept him by his side. In a sense, he could be regarded as Dazai's raiser and teacher. Although he was not bad as a leader, he was really good as a teacher. Not responsible enough.He always loves to talk half and hide half, and he also likes to plot against his students.

Mori Ogai frowned worriedly and sighed: "There is a shortage of people. There is a shortage of people at the grassroots level, and there is also a shortage of cadres."

He picked up another document on the desktop, which was Lantang's latest actions - a very neat and skillful person took down a small organization that entered Yokohama from the coast.

"Mr. Lantang's ability is really useful." He sighed and shook his head regretfully.

Osamu Dazai snorted when he heard the words, and laughed at the greedy leader: "Could it be possible that Mr. Lan Tang joined the port mafia, and Mr. Mori will use it with confidence?"

The answer is - of course not.

But Lantang, as a neutral intelligence businessman in Yokohama, can never be neutral because he already has a weakness.

"So, we still have to find a way to let the little lady join."

Miss and Zhong are also here, worrying that Lantang won't be on their side?

He complained: "Mr. Lantang is really powerful, he hid the young lady so well. After so long, I can't see the young lady. If I don't meet, many methods can't be used. The young lady is so beautiful. It’s time to put your abilities to good use.”

The perverted middle-aged uncle who covets other people's little loli, even with the title of leader, people can't help but want to despise him.

Dazai made a disgusted face.

He recalled the way the young lady persuaded him to study more earnestly, and curled his lips: "Mr. Sen, give up this plan. Not to mention that the young lady will not agree at all. As long as Mr. Sen makes this calculation, he will not be smart enough to see it. But Mr. Lantang will fight back unceremoniously."

Hearing this, Mori Ogai narrowed his eyes showing a complacent expression.

Dazai was slightly startled.

Mori Ogai pointed to the chess set on the side, and said with a smile, "This is a gift chosen by the young lady herself."

Dazai smiled coolly: "As far as I know, all high-level or middle-level people have received Chuya's entry gifts."

"Dazai-kun, but you didn't."

Dazai: "..."

Mori Ogai smiled: "Maybe the young lady will take the initiative to join the port mafia. After all, she and Nakaya-kun have a very deep relationship, and the young lady has a high degree of affection for the port mafia."

and--

He watched the chess, and the master of manipulating people's hearts could naturally see that although he hadn't met yet, the little lady had a high degree of affection for him.

"There is a shortage of people everywhere, and the organization is not easy to do. I heard that the military police and the special agent department are also trying to get the young lady's idea. How do you think the port mafia is the best choice."

He rolled his eyes expectantly and happily.

Osamu Dazai lowered his eyes slightly, and his slightly longer hair blocked his eyes: "Speaking of which, what is Miss's ability?"

"It's a protective cover. It should be a protective cover that can be given to people. It can block any fatal attack."

Dazai frowned slightly.

No wonder Mr. Sen is so determined to win the little lady. For the mafia walking between bullets and supernatural attacks, what would it mean if such a protective shield could be added?It means one more life, it means twice as much attack confidence as the enemy, and it means that the intensity of suicide attacks will become the norm.This is much more useful than a bulletproof vest.After all, bulletproof vests can protect against bullets, but not against pervasive abilities.

Strategically, this is undoubtedly a valuable ability that can be mass-produced.

As for those high-ranking and powerful dignitaries who are greedy for life and afraid of death, for them, such a convenient ability is worth collecting.No wonder even the military police and the government are bound to win.

However, when he recalled the board thrown by the little lady by the river that day, meaningful thoughts appeared in his eyes.

But he said boredly: "So it's such a power."

"It's such a boring and unfriendly ability, is life worth protecting?" Dazai complained.

Mori Ogai glanced at Dazai reproachfully, the light fell on his face, and it was on and off, he smiled with his lips curled up: "Okay, okay, let's stop the gossip."

"Since both Mr. Lantang and Nakaya-kun are moving, I would like to trouble Dazai-kun to be more energetic." He looked at Dazai with a very expectant expression.

Osamu Dazai smiled noncommittally, his handsome face seemed to be a little softer under the dim light, no doubt this was just an illusion, the deep indifference in his kite-colored eyes was almost the same color as his hair, blending into the shadow behind him.

"Please kill all these people who dare to invade Yokohama."

***

At this time, outside Xiaoxue's door were heavily armed military police.

To be precise, outside the garden, the military police surrounded the small western-style building and the garden.In order to show goodwill to the young and precious supernatural beings, only a few high-ranking military and police officers entered the well-tended garden.

A head poked out from the door, fluffy hair, a pair of round eyes.

"You are--"

The speaker is a member of the military and police, and he is known to be a hard-hearted person, but facing ordinary citizens with no criminal record, especially the little loli who is suspected of being kind to the military and police, he unconsciously slowed down his voice: "Excuse me, is the Central Plains Miss? The vicinity will become a battlefield, please follow us to evacuate."

Is there a safer place in this world than her [Moving Castle]?

—Naturally there is none.

Zhongyuan Xiaoxue blinked in confusion, her slender and thick eyelashes were like the trembling wings of a butterfly resting among the flowers.

"I think my home is quite safe."

The original order was to take Miss Zhongyuan away no matter what.

But at this moment, facing the little girl who was as gentle as a ball of fluff, the captain of the military police subconsciously chose to convince others with reason.

"Miss Zhongyuan, your father, Mr. Lantang, has been with us for a long time, and we have a deep friendship with each other. Now your father and brother are not at home, and it is not safe to be alone at home. Therefore, we are obliged to take care of his daughter. You see ——" He pointed to the well-equipped military police outside the hospital, "We will protect you."

Zhongyuan Xiaoxue tilted her head and thought for a while, she didn't ask how these people found her home.

They didn't even ask where they got the confidence to think that they had established a deep friendship with Lan Tang's father.However, if the measure is the thickness of the exchanged money, then it really has a lot to do with it.

Zhongyuan Xiaoxue recalled a string of numbers contributed by the military and police on her family bank card, and her smile was even sweeter.

"That's it."

Seeing the little girl's smile as sweet as honey, the captain of the military police suddenly thought of his colleagues who had expressed affection for him, and he couldn't help thinking whether it was time for him to start a family and have a lovely daughter.

Fog gradually rose from the sea and was blown towards the coast by the wind.

The light at dusk is more ambiguous and blurred.

Xiaoxue stretched out her hand to pull the blown messy hair behind her ears, smiled, and pointed behind him.

He asked suspiciously, "What about this white-haired gentleman, is he also here to protect me?"

The captain of the military police was shocked, and turned his head suddenly. At some time, the mist had enveloped the vicinity, and the military police who had been armed and guarded outside the garden had quietly disappeared.

The white fence gate of the garden was pushed open with a creak, and a person walked slowly along the white stone path full of colorful summer flowers.

The author has something to say: it will be updated at six o'clock in the future~

A side story:

Zhongyuan Xiaoxue's birthday, to her surprise, she got a lot of presents on her 11th birthday.

Brother Zhongye sent a limited edition gem headband.

Lan Tang's father gave him a complete set of hardcover Shakespeare anthology. (She would have preferred Rimbaud's autographed poetry collection.)

The teacher gave me a set of ancient Huaguo skirts.

Atobe's is an antique necklace.

She looked at the necklace that had just come out of the auction, and was stunned for a while before asking, "Should I buy a safe after school?" Of course she was joking.But this is really a big deal.

The heir of the Atobe Zaibatsu was calm, and his tone was reserved: "I think the black crystal above is very similar to your eyes."

Holding the necklace box, she thanked her earnestly again and said with a smile: "Then wait for my birthday present for you!"

In addition to Xiaojing, my brother's colleagues also remembered to give her gifts.

A kimono given by sister Hongye.

A Lolita dress from Mr. Mori. (seriously confiscated by Dad)

Of course, the winery that Lantang's father was cooperating with also sent gifts.

Gin had no expression on his face: "By order of the boss, congratulations on Miss Zhongyuan's birthday!"

The gift from the winery is the full amount of KFC children's set toys she is collecting. To be precise, it is a remake of the toy, made of gold.

Xiaoxue: "???"

If you send gold, gold bars are fine, so you don't need to bother.

There was also an unnamed gift stuffed in her mailbox at home.

A post-it note was posted on the gift—Miss He Xiaoxiao’s birthday, as you said, I made a friend.

She guessed that this might be the person who committed suicide by the river that day.

Now that he has met a friend worth mentioning, he must have given up suicide.It's really good.

As a result, she unwrapped the gift with a stiff smile on her lips.

"The Complete Suicide Manual???"
