After drawing Zhongye SSR

When the building collapsed.

Maki was not affected in any way.

Although Zhong is not such a calm person, besides, anger is almost filling his head now.But he couldn't forget why he was so angry——

So when he realized that he was out of control, he took off the black coat on his body, and exerted supernatural powers on it by touching it.

Then, the moment the building collapsed, the long black coat gently wrapped Maki, and then floated in mid-air like a flying carpet.

"Wow." Maki looked at the tiles a few meters away from her below, and the bricks on her head that seemed to have eyes around her, and thought silently, "It's like magic."

The five-story building seemed to be crushed by an invisible crane, snapped from the middle, and then fell apart.

Zhenji saw through the edge of the long coat that Sigma was protecting Lifa under his body. He seemed to hesitate for a while whether to help Tosi, but he retracted his finger a second before touching Tosi.

This is the third floor, about ten meters above the ground.The building collapsed slowly under the pressure of gravity. To put it simply, as long as you don't get hit on your head by a brick, you won't die so easily.

Sigma's coat was crushed by a brick, and he quickly took out a pocket knife to cut open the clothing material stuck under several bricks, and then hid in the corner between the two load-bearing walls.

Dust rose.

Maki coughed a few times, and when she raised her head again, the shadows of those three people were no longer visible.

Chuya came out from the ruins, he manipulated the coat to descend slowly, and then carefully placed Maki on the ground as if he was playing with a doll.

The system accurately summed up Maki's psychology in two words.

System: [... Fuck. 】

Maki blinked slowly.

She felt that when Nakaya touched her, his movements became more cautious - he gently patted the dust off Maki's body, and then said slowly: "...I'm late."

Shinji shook his head, "I'm fine."

But looking at Zhong Ye, he obviously felt that she was trying to be brave - the man gently picked up one of her hands, and his eyes were on the bruise on her arm: "Does it hurt?"

painful.

But it didn't hurt her stomach when she was directly pierced before—Maki felt that she had a subtle adaptability at some point, for example, this time, she didn't even think it was a big deal.

Zhong Ye stared at the little girl's pale face for a few seconds, then said, "Sorry."

He looked very uncomfortable, and even a little afraid to meet Maki's eyes—Chu also realized that he had really gone too far this time.He was a little afraid to see the little girl's terrified expression.

Zhongye is very powerful.

He is so powerful that everyone who sees him angry will tremble with fear when he hears his name later.

"Mr. Chuya."

Until he heard Maki say firmly but lightly: "Thank you."

He raised his eyes.

Zhong also suddenly realized that the way Maki looked at him was different from others from the very beginning—there was a flash of admiration in her eyes when they first met, but after that, she completely regarded him as someone else. "Ordinary well-wishers" came to see it.

Not only to him, Maki sees everyone in the same way.She seems to have been looking at the world calmly through a thin layer of fog.

Sometimes, she is like a bystander.

At that time, he felt that the little girl was far away from him.

Chuya paused, noticing that Maki's gaze circled him and stopped behind him.Then the girl relaxed and tightened her body again.She said curtly, "They're not dead yet."

Those three guys weren't even seriously injured—don't know how.Lifa and Tosi were unscathed, and Sigma looked fine except for a shallow gash less than ten centimeters cut on his arm by the steel bar.

Nakaya stretched out his hand and pushed Maki slightly behind him.

"Dostoevsky." Osamu Dazai walked forward like a leisurely stroll, and looked at Dostoyevsky with a smile, "I've heard you famous for a long time."

Tosi stared at him expressionlessly.

Then Sigma, who was standing at the back, suddenly took out two guns, and fired at the center—this was obviously useless for the gravity-powered user, and the bullet stopped in the air half a meter away from the center. down.

However, Sigma is not for attacking Zhongye.

Taking advantage of the moment when Chuya was distracted, Tosi approached Zhenji extremely quickly——

Zhong also subconsciously felt that he could not kill Tuo Si directly.

This devil knows too much information, if he is killed, Mori Ogai alone will definitely be harsh.

So the bullets floating in the air fell to the ground with a "crash".Zhong also jumped up, and his slender legs were about to kick Tuo Si's head.

Maki's heartbeat stopped for a moment.

She suddenly remembered the subconscious curling action of Sigma before touching Tosi.

They are not on bad terms.

So there must be some reason why Sigma couldn't touch Tosi——

Without thinking too much, Maki suddenly pulled Chuya's sleeve, and then blocked himself in front of Chuya with mutual repulsion.

Maki thought, after all, she can still revert the file - her death is not a big deal.

But if something happens in Zhongye...she just doesn't want to think about it.

Tosi seems to have a subtle fear of Zhenji.He even took the initiative to take a step back so that he would not touch the little girl.Maki gasped, and said to Zhongya, "Don't touch him."

"Forget it, Tuosi." Lifa stepped forward, glanced at Zhenji, and said in a low voice, "That's it for today."

Chuuya's body moved a bit.He subconsciously wanted to chase, but was held back by Osamu Dazai.

Osamu Dazai shook his head at him: "They must have a backup. Don't forget about the amusement park."

At the amusement park, Chuya's ability suddenly stopped working.

Everyone present, Edogawa Ranpo's combat ability is almost 0, Dazai Osamu and Maki are not much better.If that kind of thing happened again, Zhongya would not be able to take care of these three laggards with his physical skills alone.

He also realized this.

So he sighed and said, "Let's take Maki back to Xiongying first."

Maki wasn't seriously injured this time, so going to Yosano Akiko's side was a bit overkill.Chuu also heard that there is a teacher with a healing personality in Xiongying-for the current Maki, that is the best choice.

Before leaving the building, Maki paused, then pretended to tie her shoelaces and picked up something from the ground.She quickly stuffed the thing into her pocket and followed.

No one spoke as we walked toward the parking lot.

Everyone has their own thoughts - Maki is very concerned about the things she picked up, and Zhong also has some fears.

For the first time, he realized that he would also be afraid—seeing the little girl lying there livid and purple, his first reaction was actually not anger, but fear.

He couldn't help but wonder what would happen to him if he never saw Maki again.

Osamu Dazai was the first to break the silence.

He asked Maki, "Do you have any idea why they want to arrest you?"

Maki raised her head suddenly, and saw her cheap brother staring at her sharply.

She was silent for a few seconds, then asked back: "Mr. Dazai, have you heard of 'Book'?"

Osamu Dazai's footsteps stopped for a moment.He stared at Maki: "Where did you hear this?"

"They mentioned it once," Maki said honestly, "Only this."

She's thought it through.

Osamu Dazai knows a lot of things that others don't.

For example, when Chuya and Ranpo heard the "book", their first reaction was confusion, while Osamu Dazai was vigilant.

Maki thought that this might be of some help to her main task five - although she was actually not in a hurry to do this task, but since Osamu Dazai asked, it was a little push.

Dazai was silent for a while.

Then slowly said: "That is a blank literature book."

"What's written in a book comes true—no matter what."

He looked at Maki's face.The girl's expression changed from hesitant to thoughtful.

Osamu Dazai: "So, what do books have to do with you?"

Maki: "...I don't know."

She really didn't know, or even couldn't figure it out—how could she, a time traveler created by the system, be connected with something like this urban legend.

But Osamu Dazai's information is obviously very valuable.

The system said: [Current progress of main task five: 30%. 】

With just a few words, one-third of the "truth of the book" was revealed.

but.

Maki thought.

In other words - only a third of it is uncovered.

To be honest, although it is brief, Maki feels that Osamu Dazai has given a definition of "book" that cannot be clearer.

Maki asked, "Anything else about books?"

Osamu Dazai: "You care about this?"

Maki paused: "...just curious."

Osamu Dazai looked at her suspiciously for a few seconds, and then said, "That's all I know."

Maki was a little disappointed.But there was no other way, she thought, maybe she had to find that "book" to reveal the whole "truth of the book".

However, it seems that there are not many people looking for books.Maybe even a lot.

That's definitely not an easy thing to do.

Maki is glad that the system didn't give her the full deadline this time - otherwise she would really have exhausted all means.

In fact, Zhong also wanted her to take Dazai Osamu's car, after all, it would be more comfortable.

But Maki doesn't really want to be stared at by her cheap brother with eyes that seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

She said softly: "It's really not a serious injury...I want to be with Mr. Chuya."

Zhong also rubbed her head and didn't say much.

Maki sat on the back seat of Chuya's motorcycle with satisfaction.

Besides, she had something important to do—there was a pocket in the fabric where Sigma had been crushed under the bricks and then torn by himself.

What Maki picked up earlier was a photo that slipped out of that pocket.She picked it up in such a hurry that she didn't have time to read the content on it.

There may be some important clues above.

Maki nervously turned the photo over.

Then she stopped short.

The picture shows a young woman with black hair and dark eyes, her face is facing Maki, expressionless.

The woman had a face that was so familiar to Maki that it almost made her want to tremble.

No one is more familiar with this face than her.

Because she had seen this woman countless times in the mirror.

... Ji Zhen.
