I'll retire when I'm done

——The feeling of being touched on the head at night is too obvious, but because Alice is next to me, I assume it was her doing it by default.

But... something is wrong.

Even if Alice is not beside her, the feeling of being touched will come from time to time.Once or twice, it can be understood as an illusion of overwork, but if you are being touched for a week, it is too much.

"...Recently, as if cursed, the illusion of being touched by others has become more and more obvious."

Bai Hong folded his hands and propped his chin, with a dignified expression.

"What, are you having a nightmare?" Mori Ogai put down the brewed coffee, looked down at the dark circles under the major general's snow-white skin, which became more and more clear, and was a little worried: "But you can't rest yet, because the follow-up work has not yet been completed. Done—you know, right? The problem of the Union Army is currently under your sole responsibility, and I can't help you in this regard, after all, it was planned by you alone. "

Bai Hong: "..."

Listen to what people say.

She took a sip of the coffee cup with no expression on her face, and was immediately stuck in her throat by the thick and dark espresso coffee that was as thick as black mud. The adjutant pressed his shoulders firmly, stuffed clear water in his hands thoughtfully, and took a big gulp with a bitter face, but he still couldn't clear the horrible curse-like bitter taste in his mouth.

"Are you awake?"

Listen, the devil is whispering.

Although Bai Hong, who has a somewhat sweet taste, is not picky about food, he can't stand this level of coffee.

She stuck out her tongue twice, and pushed the coffee cup to a place where the corner of the table couldn't touch it with a sullen face.

"...you are a demon."

"If you don't have enough sleep, just get up and work," her adjutant showed a refreshing and gentle smile, and gave her a thumbs up: "Anyway, the major general can't finish his work even if he doesn't sleep, it's not bad. "

"No--to--"

I don't know why there is no reduction in work even though people are getting fewer and fewer. Bai Hong pushed the documents on the table far away, put his head on the table, leaving only the back of his head facing Mori Ogai, and slowly stretched the ending: "If you don't do it, you can do it." It doesn't matter, it's all up to me anyway, it doesn't matter whether you sign or read it—"

Standing aside, Mori Ogai sighed and asked softly, "Didn't you say before that you would teach me a lot? If you don't teach me, you won't be able to rest well, right?"

The head slumped on the table shook, and finally stood up.

"I believe Lin Taro can do it, it doesn't matter... You can handle the documents of this level. I wanted to ask before, why should I ask me about the stupid question of the scope of personnel transfer? It was the documents approved by the above that let me see, but are those guys really working hard?"

Bai Hong's eyelids drooped, and she said that she was leaning up, but in fact she just straightened her head and rested her chin on the table, and there was a small red mark on her fair cheek that was pressed by the table, she looked at the chattering with disgust Complaining, then tilting his head, he leaned back on the table again.

"do not want to work--"

Isn't the reason why she has to take a look at even this kind of problem?

Because you are the real leader.

Mori Ogai had a helpless smile on his face.

...Obviously another level of emphasis, isn't it?

Whether it is stupid and cautious, or awe beyond the original position, it is all because of the incomparably precise control of the situation and people's hearts by this young major general on an isolated island far away from the ocean.

Mori Ogai was in it, and the feeling was the most obvious.

Since she proposed the "alliance", the number of enemies on the island who are still hostile to them is decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye-she knows better than anyone how to compete with those old foxes for interests and rights, if it was only because of her It is an important part of containing domestic supernatural beings and suppressing the abyss of Ever Dark Island, so the current Baihong has probably vaguely climbed to a new height.

About one-third of the soldiers she released from Ever Dark Island were direct descendants, and two-thirds were ordinary people who left the island with gratitude and reverence for her—such a composition; A considerable part of them was reabsorbed into other special agencies because of their outstanding strength, and turned into a brand new backbone.

Mori Ogai did not get much information here, but what is certain is that many people, including Nojima Sota, have been included under the Supernatural Secret Service Division.

"If you don't want to work, then don't work."

Anyway, no one will take care of this kind of place, so it doesn't matter to let her relax a little bit.

Mori Ogai looked at Bai Hong whose head was rolling around on the table and cooing towards the document, and took the initiative to take a step back to make room: "What's the matter with the bad sleep you said before?"

Bai Hong, who was let off by the adjutant, turned his head and stared at him in an instant, with a shocked expression on his face: "Lin Taro!"

She exclaimed: "Are you finally crazy!?"

Mori Ogai smiled and froze on his face: "..."

"Do you need me to prescribe medicine to let you sleep peacefully forever?"

With a relaxed expression mixed with emotion, Bai Hong patted his arm with his backhand, "That's right, this scumbag is the Mori Ogai I know who spoke." Is it the feeling of being touched by the soul?... Well, it’s not a big problem, because this body is very useful, and it largely isolates the feeling of touch, that is, the feeling of being touched on the head and face, bear with it It's over."

After distinguishing the tactile sensation that directly touches the soul, Bai Hong reacted slowly to a question.

My own birth was not accidental, and my physique was not an ordinary mutation.

——Heaven-given curse, this is an exchange with the world, using the magic power as an exchange to strengthen the special ability of the body, if the body of the elder brother Chanyuan Shier is a one-in-a-kind accident, then his body is the world for this world. The inevitability after binding this soul.

This is the world's way to protect itself, and to prevent her soul strength from affecting its own rules...Because the angle of exchange is different, the things that come from the exchange of curses are also different.

Bai Hong had faintly noticed before that his physical strength was actually not as strong as his brother's; it was just that he had simply attributed it to the physical gap between men and women for so many years, and his fighting skills and domineering looks could make up for the gap. Bai Hong didn't care too much from the beginning to the end.

"Touch... the soul?" This is Mori Ogai's knowledge blind spot again. The man frowned slightly, but his expression was genuinely worried: "What's going on?"

Bai Hong answered casually: "To put it simply, it's my hometown—oh, I'm not talking about the Wutiao family, I'm talking about the one earlier, you understand? There is a way to share soul and power over there, so let's treat it as a senior For the protection of the younger generation, leave a mark in some places or with the gods of the oath, so that the other party can summon part of the soul power, summon the existence similar to the spirit to assist in the battle and so on."

Mori Ogai frowned: "It's not a world at all, is it? Summoning can still be used?"

Bai Hong fell into deep thought: "This is also my question... It's really troublesome that there are people in this world who know this kind of magic - but that guy doesn't seem to be very familiar with soul magic, so he can give it to me right now. The impact is limited to being felt and touched."

"What if the problem is more serious?"

Bai Hong's expression was serious: "The worst is the one that can be called directly from the South Pole to the North Pole."

well.

Mori Ogai thought calmly.

The officer she just admitted was someone else's summoned beast, and she couldn't even tell who it was.

If this person is an enemy, the consequences will be unimaginable...!

"Can you guess who it is?"

Bai Hong: "That's the problem. There may be too many people causing trouble, so I can't guess."

Mori Ogai: "...?"

He spoke with some difficulty: "...No, from your description, it's impossible to share this kind of thing with anyone you meet, right? It's obviously such an important thing to separate souls?"

"Oh..." The young major general's eyes wandered: "After all, there were many gods who swore to take things conveniently back then..."

Mori Ogai: "...Excuse me, but I still have to ask, how many souls have you distributed?"

Bai Hongyou turned his eyes away, and his voice was light and ethereal.

"What's the matter... There are also double digits, right?"

But it shouldn't be a problem left over from our own history, right?

Bai Hong showed an unsure expression, "Although there are a lot of people, it's true that many people who made vows were useless and then killed them directly, so I don't think it's their fault?"

Mori Ogai: ...

Did this person just say something particularly terrifying?

"Ah, but Hayashi Taro don't have to worry," Bai Hong patted Mori Ogai's arm with a happy face, smiling very refreshingly: "Because although you were the boss before and you have a face that is quite suitable for being killed, but It would be more troublesome to kill you, so I won't do anything to you if it is not a last resort, please rest assured~"

Mori Ogai sighed.

...not at ease, sir.

"Anyway, I can't find a partner, so let's just leave it alone," Bai Hong chose to put aside this small and thoughtless problem, "but when it comes to the boss, I feel like I forgot something ?”

"Ah, indeed."

Mori Ogai took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to her: "You forgot to send a letter to that side last month, but perhaps it was because of this that the side finally replied to you. Congratulations."

"Hey——" Bai Hong blinked: "Wu actually replied to my letter? What did you write?"

She opened the letter paper casually, and the words on it pierced through the back of the paper, boiling with murderous aura.

——Get out of here! ! !

Bai Hong: "..."

She took out a blank sheet of paper with no expression on her face, wrote two words on it, folded it casually, and handed it to Mori Ogai.

"Here, reply."

****

A day later, the young head of the Wutiao family received his reply.

The boy couldn't wait to unfold the letter paper, only two words were written on it.

--I don't.

Gojo Satoru: ...! ? ? ?

On the same day, the Gojo mansion was smashed in half by the berserk Six Eyes.
