Bungo common problem

On this day of New Year's Eve, there is no difference during the day as usual, that is, stay at home.

Oda Sakunosuke is the bottom supporter, even if he doesn't go to the annual meeting, it doesn't matter, and some other high-level executives who still have to be busy at work for half a day even during the New Year are extraordinarily leisurely.

The food was bought in advance, so you don’t need to do anything more, and you can cook simple things a thousand miles away. Oda Sakunosuke, who couldn’t match the public opinion, was a little disappointed.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and there was an interesting program on the TV. Several children were sitting on the sofa in rows, staring at each other.

"Odasaku, Sensato-san, are you going out tonight?"

Watching the TV program, I suddenly remembered that there are still activities during the Chinese New Year, and Yu looked at Chisato and Oda Sakunosuke who were sitting at the table.

"Can I go to the temple tonight?"

"temple?"

After hearing a word, several children turned their heads to look at the table in an instant, their eyes shining brightly.

Temple hey!Places I've never been to before!

"temple?"

Oda Sakunosuke raised his eyes to look at the children beside the sofa with expectations written all over their faces, and fell into deep thought.

"Are you sure?"

Even if you go to the temple at night, you still listen to the clock strike at 0:[-], which is midnight, long past the children's bedtime.

"Yeah! I want to go!"

The children made eager sounds.

"I heard that there will be red bean soup for drinking! I want to eat..."

"Kesi, you're so hungry."

Xingjie let out a hey, followed by a weak glance at Kemi, causing the other party to retort loudly.

"What! Don't you want to try it!"

It sounds like you are the only one who wants to taste the red bean soup issued by the temple!

"I think!"

The youngest little girl, Saku Le, hurriedly raised her hand.

"I haven't been there yet! I want to see it!"

"In this case……"

Seeing that the children all wanted to go, Oda Sakunosuke didn't refuse, but looked at Chisato instead.

"A thousand miles, do you want to go?"

"me?"

Qianli thought about it and asked.

"For the new year...how is it outside? Is it safe at night?"

She is more concerned about safety issues. After all, the night in Yokohama is a dangerous time. Although it is the New Year's Eve, I feel that I have to be vigilant.

After all, it's pitch black at night, and if something happens, it's easy to get lost.I didn't go out last year, so I don't know what the New Year's night is like outside.

Although born in Osaka, he stayed in Yokohama since he was a child. The old Yokohama native, Sakunosuke Oda, is very familiar with Yokohama, so he answered Chisato's question directly without thinking too much.

"There should be no problem with the New Year, after all, even the Mafia has to celebrate the New Year."

Even the two families that are bound to fight when they meet on weekdays can hold back their hatred during the Chinese New Year.After all, it is not good to have a bloody incident on a major festival once a year.

"Then I have no objection."

When Qianliyi heard that it was safe and secure, his worries immediately disappeared.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen it either. It turns out that red bean soup is also distributed."

Japan is really different from planting flowers!

Oda Sakunosuke's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes turned around Chisato's expectant face without a trace, and after retracting his eyes, he returned to his normal look.

Must go this year.

He thought so, and added something else at the end of the itinerary.

It can be crossed out if it is too late to watch the sunrise, but it can be arranged for shrine visits after the New Year’s Eve.

Rarely, the children were extraordinarily energetic until midnight, and Oda Sakunosuke took his family to the nearest temple as promised. Everyone felt the New Year's Eve activity of eating red bean soup by the campfire and listening to the monk ringing the bell.

After reading it, I returned home in a mighty way and ate soba noodles for the New Year's Eve. The children couldn't hold on anymore.

The youngest, Sakule, almost ate the soba noodles with her eyes closed. Fortunately, nothing happened after eating, and the children could wash up and go to sleep directly.

Chisato and Oda Sakunosuke were the only ones left in the brightly lit living room.

"Want to go to bed early?"

Oda Sakunosuke glanced at the time, and it was already past one o'clock in the middle of the night. It was not a big deal for him to stay up late, but thousands of miles were different.

"I……"

Qianli hesitated for a moment, and instead of answering the other party's question, he asked back.

"Is Odasaku going to sleep?"

"me?"

Oda Sakunosuke stared at Chisato and replied calmly.

"Staying up late is a very common thing for me, and it's also a holiday. It's okay if I don't sleep all night."

"My words... I want to wait a little longer."

Thinking about the customs he found, Qianli found an excuse.

"It's a rare Chinese New Year. Isn't there a tradition of watching the sunrise? I remember that there should be a key for the door of the roof."

The apartment I live in now can actually go to the roof, and there are not many buildings to the east, so I can indeed see the sunrise.

As if afraid that Oda Sakunosuke would drive her back, Chisato repeated the question again.

"is it okay?"

"of course can."

It's obviously just a small thing, watching the New Year's sunrise is also the norm in Japan, but Chisato's feeling of being cautious for some reason makes Oda Sakunosuke feel an indescribably complicated feeling.

He keenly felt that for some reason, the other party was uneasy.

"There are still a few hours before sunrise. If you are sleepy, you can take a nap here, or you can watch the show first."

Otherwise, there is nothing to pass the time, and it will be boring for a few hours.

Oda Sakunosuke didn't know the reason, but he was willing to do something to appease her. He sat on the sofa with Chisato and took the initiative to put the remote control into her hand.

Holding the remote control, Qianli casually pressed a station, didn't say much, just sat on the sofa, staring blankly at the screen as if addicted to the TV.

But her heart was not on the broadcasting program at all, nor even on Oda Sakunosuke beside her, she just shrunk her legs and rolled herself into a ball.

It’s weird.

she thinks.

Obviously, she didn't feel this way during Chinese New Year last year, and this year was just an ordinary year, but she could only feel a strong sense of strangeness when she watched the lively scene in the temple.

Sure enough, it's because next year... no, the mimic summer event is about to happen this year, so you feel the urgency, right?

But...if she is still growing flowers, she should be eating dumplings at this time. After eating Japanese food for so long, she also misses Chinese food very much.But after thinking about it, she hadn't even been to the famous Chinatown in Yokohama for such a long time.

No, it was an inexplicable reluctance.Even Chinatown is not her original place after all.

She was afraid that she would miss it even more when she saw it.

A holiday or something, it really is a strange day.It will make people happier, and it will make people more disappointed.

The girl's golden eyes stared at the TV screen without blinking, as if she had been attracted all the attention, but Oda Sakunosuke could clearly see the emptiness in the other party's eyes.

It was as if she had entered her own small world, and everything seemed normal, but everything in the outside world could no longer impress her.

What is she thinking?Is it the past that he doesn't know about?

Knowing that at this time, it is logical that he should not disturb, but his intuition told him that he had to do something.

Do something about it.

After an unknown amount of time, Qianli, who was sitting blankly, suddenly felt something enveloping her. She turned around, and a blanket had already wrapped most of her body.

"Odasaku?"

Qianli raised his eyes and looked at the person who did such a thing.

"Be careful not to catch a cold."

The voice of Oda Sakunosuke, who interrupted Chisato's thoughts on purpose, was exceptionally upright.

"If you're tired, you can lean on my side."

With transparent blue eyes, Qianli was silent, and for another moment, she even felt that the other party had seen through her mood.

Otherwise, why would you say "tired"?

But... only this is impossible.

"I see."

Chisato responded slowly, raised the corner of her lips and gave Oda Sakunosuke a smile, her fingertips hooked the side of the blanket closer to the other party, and gave half of the blanket covering her body to the other party.

So it became two people covering the blanket together.

No one made a sound, and the air suddenly became quiet, only the sound of the TV chattered along with the video, but it didn't play its original role at all.

After a long time, Qianli uttered a sentence without beginning or end.

"It's already a new year."

"Oh, yes."

Oda Sakunosuke echoed earnestly, looking at Chisato.

"Qianli has grown up a bit."

But it doesn't seem to have changed much, it's still the same as when I picked it up a year and a half ago, it's still a small one.

Oda Sakunosuke calculated the height in his heart, and felt that Qianli had grown by about two centimeters in the whole year.

It seems too little.

Suddenly, he felt the weight on his side.

Chisato leaned against Oda Tsukuru on the right, from being afraid of pressing on the opponent's little bit at the beginning, to putting all of herself on it, it took her more than ten seconds.

Through the clothes, their respective body temperatures are huddled in the body, but despite this, Qianli can feel satisfied.

"If Odasaku wants to write a book, he has to write quickly."

"because……"

There is only half a year left, or less than half a year.To be honest, she was starting to feel scared.

Before the Chinese New Year, she might be able to indulge in writing and lose this concept, but in such a strong atmosphere, it is difficult for her to ignore it.

It represents a new arrival, but also represents the span of time.

It's too fast, isn't it?

After leaving her throat with a trembling voice, it was unexpectedly calm, and there was even a joke at the end that shocked her.

"Because I'm still waiting for Oda to support me with the manuscript fee."

"Payment fees..."

As soon as the manuscript fee was mentioned, Oda Konosuke felt a little guilty. He recalled that he had only written a few words on the manuscript paper so far, and he could only make a perfunctory cooing sound of the pigeon.

"I will write well."

Will definitely write well!

With his free right hand, he gathered a corner of the blanket for Qianli, covered her head again, and rubbed it gently.

"Go to sleep if you're tired."

There is a calm and reassuring magic in Oda Sakunosuke's voice.

"I'll always be here."

It's been there all the time, and that's really nice.

In the same blanket, the other party's aura seemed to be imprisoned in this small piece of world. Qianlixiao yawned, and the overflowing sparkle made those golden eyes more clear, but she closed them all. On, just humming softly with a nasal voice.

"Ah."

For the time being, it should be okay to fall asleep like this willfully, right?

No dreams, just a peaceful sleep.It wasn't until he was awakened by a familiar voice that Qianli rubbed his eyes and looked at the source of the sound in confusion.

Oda Sakunosuke is still the same as before, and his energetic appearance makes it difficult to see whether he has stayed up all night.

"It's almost dawn."

He said, motioning to the window.

Through the transparent glass, the outside sky can be clearly seen in the eyes, and the sun has not yet risen in the dim sky.

Qianli sat up straight in an instant, and lifted the blanket to wake himself up.

"It's time already? Ah... which..."

She suddenly thought of something, turned her head to look at Oda Sakunosuke, and focused on the side she was leaning on.

"Odasaku your arm..."

"nothing."

Oda Sakunosuke, who saw Qianli's meaning, moved his arms quite flexibly, making it impossible to see that he had been numb for a while.

"Compared to this, Chisato puts on his coat first."

Oda Sakunosuke, who lowered his arms, skillfully changed the subject.

"It's easy to catch a cold when you go out just after waking up, so wear more."

"I see!"

Chisato left and got dressed, and went to the rooftop with Oda Sakunosuke.It is high enough that people on it can clearly see the distant sea, and the sun is about to rise from there.

No, it has indeed begun.

At first it was a little more silhouette and more light, then more light.Reflecting the morning glow, just revealing a small corner dispelled the dark blue.

Qianli's eyes suddenly lit up like this burst of sunshine.

The haze was dispelled by the gold, and that bit of confidence returned to his body.

"Odasaku."

She stared at the other party, stretched out her hand in the cold, grabbed the other party's sleeve, mustered up the courage, and made a promise with expectations.

- There is a promise about the future.

"Next year, let's watch it together next year."

next year?

"it is good."

Oda Sakunosuke lowered his head and stared at Chisato.

Under the sun, her originally golden eyes seemed to blend into the rising sun, carrying an unforgettable expectation.

No one will reject her like this.

Oda Sakunosuke sighed softly in his heart, held Qianli Weiliang's hand backhand with his left hand, and made his promise with a firm voice.

"It's not just next year, as long as you think about it, you can do it every year in the future."

Would it be more reassuring?

……

After watching the sunrise, the children were still asleep when they got home, and they didn't wake up until almost noon.

Therefore, the New Year's Day of worship at the shrine can only be moved to the afternoon.

"Good luck, good luck, it must be good luck!"

Several children were muttering about wanting to draw the best lottery. Sensato glanced at the [Daiji] in his hand expressionlessly, decided to fold it tightly, and turned his head to look at Sakunosuke Oda.

Then the word [fierce] came into view.

Qianli: "..."

I feel like I'm being targeted by the world consciousness...

"I didn't expect it to be [fierce]."

Oda Sakunosuke himself didn't feel much, and he didn't think it was too bad for his first lottery in the New Year.

"Just tie the lottery to the branch. Speaking of which, what is your lottery for Qianli?"

Qianli hesitated to speak, but fortunately before she could really speak, the children who had already received the signature made a shocked sound.

"How could it be [fierce]!"

You looked at the [Fierce] in his hand in disbelief, and turned his head to look at the other children.

"What about yours, Shinji?"

"Mine definitely wasn't [fierce]!"

Shinji swore to open the signed document, and his expression froze in an instant with the exact same [fierce] on it.

"It's impossible! How could I be so unlucky!"

"It seems that Shinji and Yuu are going to be unlucky this year."

The boss, Kosuke, with his hips akimbo, unfolded his signature in full view.

"Just show you mine, it's definitely big...huh???"

Halfway through his words, he lost his voice in an instant.

"Hey, fortunately you are obviously [fierce] too!"

Shinji and Yu successfully seize the opportunity to fight back.

"It seems that this year you will be as unlucky as us hehehe."

"Then what..."

When the three of them were arguing, Katsumi opened his mouth in shock, holding the signatures signed by himself and Saku Le.

"Saki Le and I are also [fierce], so we are both [fierce]!"

"Hmmmm??"

The three children turned their heads in an instant, and their pupils trembled as they looked at the [fierce] on the two pieces of paper.

This issue is not to say that the whole family is [fierce]! ! !

The five children looked at each other, their expressions gradually getting out of control.

"Odasaku! Sensato-san!"

They quickly turned to look for their parents.

"Look! We are absolutely cursed!"

Qianli: "..."

Qianli stared at the five [fiends] who were exactly the same as those made by Oda, and held the signature in his hand even tighter.

I am very sure.

she thinks.

The world consciousness is definitely targeting itself!The whole family is [Father], so they smoked [Da Ji] or something, and they don’t believe it if they didn’t mean to target her!

Heh, don't she know what kind of luck she has?Super ordinary, ordinary, so ordinary that drinking iced black tea has never won [another cup]!

Oda Sakunosuke reassured the children with the words "Just tie the [bad] lottery to the branch." A group of people went to the tree.But when Qianli was advancing, he saw a familiar figure.

She blinked her eyes and took a closer look, she was indeed familiar, the black body was not Dazai Osamu!

The other party was in the corner, holding something in his hand, and lowered his head so that people could not see his expression clearly.

Chisato tugged at the hem of Oda Sakunosuke's clothes, said a word, and left the team to walk towards Osamu Dazai.

The place where Osamu Dazai was staying was very remote, except for the crowds that could be seen from the outside, there were no people around.

Suddenly, footsteps approached.It can be said that the familiar frequency allowed him to imitate the appearance of the other party in his mind in an instant.Osamu Dazai raised his head, and the person he saw was exactly as he had guessed.

"Dazai."

Qianli came to the opposite side of Osamu Dazai, looked at him, and lowered his eyes.

"Happy New Year, I didn't expect to see you here."

"Happy New Year."

Osamu Dazai raised his hand and shook it left and right, with a laziness in his voice.

"I heard that this shrine is more effective, so I came to draw lots. After all, it's interesting to try occasionally, isn't it?"

As he spoke, he shook the signature in his hand, and the words [big murderer] on it were particularly eye-catching.

"Looking at the results... I don't know how to say it. Normally, I should be happy to get the [big murderer], but when I think about my wish, the result is completely opposite to what I wished for."

I made a wish to commit suicide successfully, but in the end I got [big murderer] or something.

Thinking of this, Osamu Dazai went numb.

"Doesn't it mean that I can't succeed this year!"

"Is that so..."

That is really hard to comment on, just like her [Daji] is hard to describe.

Qianli stared at the two words [big murderer] on the signature, and suddenly thought of something, unfolded the lottery in his hand, smoothed it out, and handed it to Osamu Dazai.

"Ugh?"

Osamu Dazai was taken aback for a moment, showing a rare look of bewilderment.

"Exchange."

As he said that, Qianli took away the [Da Ji] from the opponent's hand with the other hand without hesitation, and stuffed the [Da Ji] from his own hand into the opponent's arms at a speed that could not be refused.

"It's a joy to have a wish come true."

Well, she didn't believe it anyway, so it wouldn't be a loss to replace it with a fierce sign that was consistent with her own family!Besides, there are world consciousnesses getting in the way, so where is the accuracy of this signing?Thinking about her ability, even if it works, it can't be effective for her, right?

Instead, treat Dazai better, maybe it will be of any use?No matter how bad it is, it can give you peace of mind.

Qianli folded the newly released [Big Ominous] in half, and his eyes fell on Osamu Dazai who hadn't reacted yet, with a gentle smile in his eyes.

"Now, your lottery is [Daji]."

At the same time as the voice fell, it seemed that something else fell with it, and it fell to the ground with complex emotions that were hard to describe.

[Daji]... what...

After a long time, Dazai Osamu whispered a word.

"God's lottery cannot be exchanged at will."

He lowered his eyes, let the broken hair block his sight, just stared at the brand new [Daji] in his hand, and said the rest.

"This will lead to the exchange of fortune."

People can't avoid [fierce], let alone the even worse [big fierce].In fact, for him, this kind of thing is just something to try, and it doesn't matter what the result is.

But it was this sudden attempt that yielded something that he had never thought of.

Or... this [Daji], which was caught off guard, can't wait to take effect at this moment?

"Exchanging fortunes or something, let's not talk about it, it's impossible."

Qianli chuckled, and made a firm voice.

"[Taiji] is not suitable for Dazai, in my opinion, you deserve the best."

This Dazai is so cute, why can't he be pampered! (occur--)

"[Daiji] is very suitable for Dazai. It would be great if his wish could come true. If possible, I hope it can protect you from unnecessary harm."

What would Dazai have been without the mimic event?

She didn't know whether Oda Sakunosuke understood it, or really understood Dazai Osamu's heart at the moment of dying, but she knew that Oda Sakunosuke could do it.

So if it is really resolved, let Oda Sakunosuke hit a straight ball and take Dazai away.

Thinking of this, Qianli stretched out his thief hand and lightly poked Dazai Osamu's chin with a trace of red scratch on the edge, then carefully withdrew his hand, and spoke earnestly.

"I hope it can bless this kind of useless and painful wound from the beginning. If Dazai can be injured less, then it will be great."

God knows, how high is the probability of this guy injuring himself!Almost half of the wounds on his body were done by himself, as if he didn't feel any pain.

"Anyway—"

She boldly pinched the other's smooth face, and her voice carried the confidence that had just been born today.

"Maybe even the [big murderer] will be 'rejected' by me."

She still has to work harder and harder to find a way to keep Oda Saku and the children alive. How can she be bound by a signed document?
