in this one.Although he often comes to this bar for a drink or two, but the time is not fixed.Sometimes it will be in the evening, sometimes at eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

I don’t know what unexpected situations will happen, such as the work is not finished, the child caused trouble in the kindergarten and the teacher will call the parents, or there is nothing wrong but suddenly I don’t want to drink and want to lie at home like a salted fish Do nothing on the floor.

Tang Jinyue didn't know how long it would take to stay here before meeting Oda Sakunosuke.However, if life has always been planned by others, it would be too boring. Appropriate surprises and disappointments are the seasonings to embellish life.

Anyway, a lot of his work can be done directly on his mobile phone, and working in a different environment can also help keep him in a good mood.

Tang Jinyue had to admit that his luck today was really good.

When he heard the wind chime on the door, he looked up and saw the man with auburn hair through the glass door of the wine cabinet.

107. Writing a book is not as good as fighting with superpowers 20

"Good evening, Boss." The man with reddish-brown hair looked a little rough, with untrimmed stubble around his lips.

He walked to the bar and sat on the bar chair he was used to sitting on - right next to Tang Jinyue.

"Good evening," the boss put down the glass he was wiping, and said in a positive tone, "It's the same as before, isn't it?"

Oda Sakunosuke nodded.

The boss put the poured distilled wine in front of him and asked, "Did you come so early today?"

"Yeah," Oda Sakunosuke took a sip of his wine, "Tonight's work is very simple, so it doesn't matter if you drink some wine."

The boss nodded, said "So that's how it is," and continued to wipe the glass with his head down.

Sakunosuke Oda was drinking while observing another customer in the bar without leaving a trace.This young man looked to be about the same age as Dazai, but he also had an aura similar to him, immersed in darkness.

However, there was no smell of gunpowder smoke or blood on his body.

"Good evening." The black-haired young man picked up the glass in hand and raised it to Sakunosuke Oda.

"Good evening." Oda Sakunosuke also politely returned.

After the young man finished greeting, he didn't speak any more.However, he kept looking at Oda Sakunosuke, obviously looking like he had something to say but didn't know why he didn't say it.

"You're not old enough to drink, are you?" Oda Sakunosuke searched his guts to find such a sentence as the opening line.Perhaps, he is just not good at communicating with people.Oda Sakunosuke thought very understandingly.

The young man nodded: "It's not just sparkling water." After speaking, he took another sip.

Oda Sakunosuke breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great. I thought the boss gave alcohol to minors again."

The boss who had been silently wiping the wine glass on the background had to cough lightly to preserve his reputation: "If you mean that person, I can't help it if I don't give it."

Oda Sakunosuke smiled in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, boss, I just wanted to try to make a joke with you, but it doesn't seem to be very successful."

The boss shrugged: "It's better not to force yourself."

"Humans have always been forcing themselves to do things they are not good at and unwilling to do." The young man suddenly interjected.

Oda Sakunosuke looked at him, his expression didn't seem to be imitating what he read from a book. "Well, it's true, but if everyone does what they want according to their own nature, wouldn't it be a mess?" He thought for a while and said.

The young man nodded: "Being able to control one's desires is the difference between humans and beasts. But for many people, if there is a chance that they don't have to force themselves, I'm afraid most of them will become beasts, right?"

"You can't say that, although it's not unreasonable for you to say it this way." Oda Sakunosuke sighed, "However, is it really okay for us to talk about such a heavy topic here? I always feel that this is a university class. It is more appropriate for the white-haired old man to speak out."

The young man was silent for a while, then said, "May I ask you a question, sir?"

Although Oda Sakunosuke was a little surprised, he still said, "What's the problem?"

"In a cartoon I read, there was a man who wanted to die. His friend made him understand the meaning of life at the cost of his own life. Although he found the motivation to live, the friend never came back Yes. Do you think it's worth it?"

Oda Sakunosuke blinked his eyes, he actually didn't quite understand the contents of these manga and animation.Obviously he is only in his twenties, but the things these children like seem to be far away from him.

It's really ridiculous, although my body is still very young, but my mentality is already like an uncle, or the kind of uncle who has failed.

It's just that this kind of life is what he has always been looking forward to.Standing on the edge of darkness, being careful not to get your hands dirty.Although he was working at the bottom of the port mafia, his salary was enough to support a bachelor and five helpless children.

Oda Sakunosuke also thought about what would happen to the five children he adopted when they grew up.At that time, they had changed from chattering children to students carrying schoolbags, reading books they hadn't read, and talking about the cartoon broadcast on the TV station last night.When he occasionally asked, "What are you looking at?", they would look at each other, and then smile and say, "You can't understand!"

Maybe he will sigh and say to the children: "Don't look at me, I haven't seen this, but I still know the routines in these animations? Maybe I know the ending before you."

However, the current Sakunosuke Oda still couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness when faced with such a problem.

He really wanted to say to this young man, "If you are a student, you should study hard, and don't think about these things when you read comics. If you are a gangster, you should also work hard to get a promotion and a raise, or don't think about these things. "

But the young man's eyes were very serious, with an obsession that he couldn't refuse.He seems to be particularly concerned about this issue, which has far exceeded the doubts that ordinary people would have when they read comics.Oda Sakunosuke thought about it carefully again, and felt that he had made a new discovery.

Maybe, the person in this comic refers to himself?Aren't many "my friends" stories actually stories about themselves?

Following this line of thought, Oda Sakunosuke has pieced together a sad story.

I can't find the meaning of life at a young age, and I want to die—oh, why does it sound so much like Osamu Dazai?Regardless of that, this young man doesn't look like Osamu Dazai is always ready to fight for the cause of suicide. It seems that the death of his friend pulled him out of the abyss of world-weariness.

It's just that it seems that the death of a friend has had a great impact on this child.Thinking of this, Oda Sakunosuke looked at Tang Jinyue with distressed eyes.

Tang Jinyue, who didn't know what happened, was both puzzled and horrified by his eyes.But he still pretended not to feel anything, full of desire for the answer to the question.

Oda Sakunosuke organized the language, and said to Tang Jinyue: "I think this is also very good. His friend should be happy when he knows his change, right?"

Tang Jinyue shook his head after hearing this: "I'm sorry, but that's not what I want to ask. What I want to say is, do you think the rest of your life is too heavy for you to bear the death of your friend?"

Oda Sakunosuke took a sip of wine, and said slowly: "Maybe for this friend, it is enough for him to find the motivation to live?"

The young man lowered his head and was silent for a long time.After a long time, he raised his head, looked at Sakunosuke Oda, and said, "I'm sorry, but my question is too stupid. I just randomly extracted two short paragraphs from a very long story and asked others. It’s as unreliable as asking someone to solve a cubic equation of five elements with only three known numbers.”

"Yes, no matter what, I haven't experienced other people's lives, and I can't dictate their choices." Oda Sakunosuke nodded.

He put the empty glass on the bar and stood up: "I'm going to work next time, excuse me."

The young man smiled at him and said, "Goodbye, I wish you success in your work."

When Oda Sakunosuke walked to the door, he couldn't help turning his head back, and added another sentence to the young man: "Although I still don't understand what you mean by the question. But I think that if a person voluntarily gives up In terms of your own life, the biggest possibility is not for your friends, but because you can't find a reason to live, so you just want to die, right?"

After finishing speaking, he smiled helplessly, and scratched his reddish-brown hair: "Just now I said that I can't jump to conclusions without knowing the actual situation, but now I'm talking again. Just listen to it casually, don't take it personally go."

After speaking, he pushed open the door, slowly walked up the steps amidst the crisp sound of wind chimes, and disappeared soon after.

Tang Jinyue sat on the seat, propped his chin with his left hand, stared at the small bubbles popping up one by one on the glass, wondering what he was thinking
