Anomalous ability is Doctor Mori

The author has something to say: * Rimbaud's monologue is partly quoted from the original novel

* Rimbaud's superpowers have private settings (Alice: I don't want to tidy up the living room and break the room, it's troublesome, I'm already very poor, thank you!

*【Color Collection】The novel version is "swaying crimson", and the animation version is gold with a little green tone, so I wrote both (so it became a colorful one that feels like a Christmas tree! (Hey

"I want to...find..."

The youth said so.

The girl asked calmly, "Why?"

Why……?

Rimbaud could not answer.He also doesn't know where his obsession comes from.But he was filled with a strong desire.Something, something very, very important, even more important than his life, was lost in that explosion along with the memory.This feeling was like the boiling water in the teacup in his hand, stabbing his heart fiercely through the fleshy cup wall.

He couldn't speak, but the young girl seemed to understand.Alice nodded, walked to the young man, pulled his shoulders, and held his face with both hands, her sharp blue eyes seemed to see the depths of his heart.

"So, at that time, what did you see?" She asked in a soft but unquestionable tone.

What am I seeing?

Ahh—I see—

Rimbaud's golden-green eyes were shocked.His trembling stopped suddenly, and his pupils shrank.The swaying crimson suddenly extended out from him, covering the entire living room to form a strange translucent space.

Dimensions are sliced ​​and perspectives reversed.The height and distance suddenly expand.Alice was instantly torn away from Rimbaud by an invisible force.Juli threw her into the air, and was firmly caught by Mori Ogai who jumped up immediately.The man jumped down with the girl in his arms, and when he stood on the ground, the surroundings were no longer the living room of the clinic.It is a completely different place with overlapping but independent dimensions.

Constructed of deep red and golden green, the sub-space that is close to reality but completely independent excludes everything in the living room, leaving only her, Mori Ogai and Nakaya.

"This is [Colorful Painting Collection]?" Alice opened her eyes wide and looked around at the unbelievable scene like a sci-fi movie. "It's actually a space ability..."

And the culprit who created all this stood there dumbfounded, Rimbaud bent over, his hair covered his eyes, from Alice's perspective, he could only see his tense jaw and pale face, as if he would be ready at any time Like fainted.

"...I saw... a black storm." He let out a dreamy, **** voice, "That is——the world in the black storm..."

As if responding to Rimbaud's call, countless large and small swaying crimson and golden-green translucent cubes appeared beside him out of thin air. After a pause, they shot out to the surroundings, and then exploded suddenly.

"Chuya! Get out of the way!"

A sharp look flashed in Alice's blue eyes, and Mori Ogai hugged her and flew to avoid an oncoming cube.The violent air waves rolled up the girl's long golden hair.

***

The usual definition of an explosion is to release a large amount of energy in a very short period of time, generate high temperature and release a large amount of gas, and cause high pressure in the surrounding medium, a highly destructive chemical reaction or state change.

But in Rimbaud's subspace, what "explodes" is the space itself.Those big and small cubes are all small subspaces inspired by his ability, they can suddenly burst anywhere without warning, setting off violent shock waves to tear the air.For a moment, the surroundings were like a forest of invisible swords and heavy hammers.

The black-haired young man had no killing intent, let alone aimed at anyone present.But just as the giant elephant would not notice that he had trampled to death an ant, even if it was just his stress response immersed in memories, it would be enough to simply tear flesh and crush bones, destroying the lives of the weak in minutes.

As expected, it was only found in top-secret files, a transcendent-level supernatural power user.

Alice understood why the explosion scene was so unscientific the moment he unfolded his ability.It must have been Rimbaud himself who blocked the shock wave of the explosion on the inland side.And his absence of burns was also explained.The huge force of the explosion directly shattered the subspace he expanded, and while the shattered space was knocked into the air with him, it also protected him from the high temperature damage.

This is probably the science of unscience.Alice wanted to complain very much at this moment.

"You are so leisurely."

"Because the current development has not exceeded my expectations."

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Nakaya who was dodging the cubes as deftly as a hummingbird. Alice held Mori Ogai's neck tightly with both hands, and followed the man dodging left and right in the sharp forest caused by the explosion of the subspace, towards Rimbaud. advance.

She was not afraid, and even had the mood to catch Rimbaud's whisper in the piercing whistling.

"...that's a black beast...a beast that walks on all fours. Its skin is fire. Its tail is flame. Even its eyes are like flames from the depths of purgatory."

Rimbaud's subspace seems to be a virtual image superimposed on reality, both in distance and breadth, far exceeding the actual area of ​​Alice's living room.

"...it has no malice, nor is it angry. There are no fluctuations of emotion. It is there only to do so... Its size and outline are like that of a human being with hands and feet on the ground, but it is by no means a human being. ... Floods do not have killing intent. Volcanoes do not have killing intent. Typhoons, thunderstorms, and tsunamis do not have killing intent. But they can kill a large number of people in an instant. That beast is like this. This The country calls this existence [God]..."

"...Besides that, can there be another name..."

But Zhong is also dexterous enough, those cubes can't get close to him at all.Mori Ogai is also as easy to use as Alice expected. They dodge left and right like playing a real dodgeball game, brushing the aftermath of explosions in space, shortening the distance between them and the youth.

"...Everything on the ground was distorted and deformed by the extremely high heat. Even the color of the sky couldn't be seen clearly. Besides, the background was like a watercolor painting blurred by water...Only the sea of ​​Yokohama... The sea that can be seen from afar..."

"...the beast that made everything but the sea disappear without a trace, looked at me..."

Leaping high, Mori Ogai turned his head sharply to avoid an invisible sharp blade, and then a small crimson cube that suddenly appeared on the left suddenly exploded, and the man's figure dimmed a bit in a flash.

"...Before I lost consciousness, I seemed to hear the roar of a wild beast..."

But they finally caught up.Blocking the explosion again, Mori Ogai instantly shattered into light spots and disappeared into the air. Alice jumped off the ground and ran forward, threw herself into the arms of the young man, and held his hand tightly.

Rimbaud trembled all over, as if being scalded by the girl's body temperature, his out-of-focus golden-green eyes fixedly stared at her.

"You remember." Alice looked back straight.

The golden green was suddenly clear, and Rimbaud closed his eyes.The subspace suddenly disappeared.When the young man opened his eyes again, they had already returned to the steaming living room.It was like a dream just now.The beef hot pot on the table is still rolling, exuding a mellow aroma.

"Yes, I remember."

The black-haired young man stared at Alice with eyes as if he had passed away, and then turned his head to take a deep look at Nakahara Chuya, who was still quiet and obedient, as if nothing had happened, and smiled wryly.

"Is this all your plan?" he said softly.

***

"I am Jean Arthur Rimbaud."

In this case, dinner is naturally nothing.Alice reappeared as Mori Ogai cleaned up the table, and the others moved to the sofa in the living room. Alice let Nakaya sit aside, and she sat next to Rimbaud.

The young man took off his hat, gloves and scarf, and turned down the heater—he was no longer shivering.

"The result of your investigation is the same as yours." Rimbaud said, "My partner and I were ordered to come to Yokohama to investigate the mysterious life form called [Rage God] that we are researching in the secret facilities of the military. It is [not belonging to] Something in the human world. The order we received was to confirm the nature of that thing, and take it if necessary... However, after we took the [Panic God] from the facility and were about to escape, something happened. What happened Something bad happened. I haven't been able to recall exactly what happened... All I remember is that because of that or something, we were discovered and hunted down by the enemy."

He took a deep breath and looked at Alice: "My superpower [color painting collection] can absorb the corpse of a supernatural person into the subspace and restore its consciousness for driving."

"Resurrection?" Alice frowned.

"No, it's just the remnants of consciousness stuck in different dimensions and surfaces in the subspace." The young man explained, "I planned to escape after taking away [Rage God], but I was killed by the enemy because of a mistake." Siege. At that time, the corpse I drove failed to break through the siege. I planned to collect [Rage God] as an ability there, thinking that it would become a more powerful ability...but something unexpected happened."

"The only thing I got was the safety device." Rimbaud looked at the boy who had been silent all along and just listened quietly with a complicated expression.

"Chuya Nakahara, Chuya-kun. You are engraved on [Rage God] as a human personality, something like a talisman to prevent rampage. Since I took you away, the safety device was opened, allowing [Rage God]'s The full posture is revealed."

"So, there was an explosion." The boy with cobalt blue eyes spoke clearly.

Rimbaud smiled wryly: "Yes. The complete form of Rage God appeared, and everything disappeared."

"Then, my supernatural power was the first to reach the center of the explosion and picked up the two of you."

Alice concludes her statement.So everything is explained.Whether it's the weird scenes, or what Yang Xiaoqi called "human beings who are not human beings".

But there is one more problem.

"Then where is [Rage God] now?"

"It should be in Mr. Zhongye's body." Rimbaud said.Chuya nodded at his statement.

"[Rage God] is power, not a god. If you want to say it, it is just a collection of huge power." The boy with cobalt blue eyes said, "I am a 'personality' created to make this power controllable." .”

"Is that so." Alice stretched out her hand, straddled the tea table with some effort, and touched Chuya's head.Facing the boy's well-behaved nervous expression, she just smiled, "That means Zhong can also control this power."

"Okay. As long as you don't use it."

"Then don't use it. Medium is enough." Alice messed up his orange hair and said with a smile, "Anyway, the reason why people are human is because they have 'personality' That’s all. If it is said that the personality is engraved on the [Rage God], then we are just the personality attached to the protein.”

Perception is nothing but electrical signals. Manipulating the amygdala and hypothalamus can artificially create emotional fluctuations. Fear and love at first sight come from the same hormone. Whether the lobes and hippocampus are functioning normally determines memory.To put it bluntly, the so-called human beings will eventually be decomposed into cells, chromosomes, ribonucleic acids, proteins, bioelectrical signals, bases and trace elements in medicine.Even further analyzed from a medical point of view, your past, future, internal and external, love, hate, love, hatred, thoughts and cognitions are all just the result of the action of chemical elements.

So where are the "heart" and "soul" in this body? If the "brain in a vat" becomes a reality one day due to the prosperity of medicine, how should "death" be defined?Where is the boundary to classify "human" and "non-human"?

It is precisely because she is studying medicine that Alice believes that human beings don't need this kind of "correctness" that is full of food.In her daily life, excessive pursuit of metaphysical philosophy is meaningless.

After all, if we really want to pursue it, as mentioned above, whether it is Zhong Ye, she, or Rimbaud, all human, non-human, and non-essential people in the world can be drawn to the same starting line—— If you insist on sophistry, everything in the world comes from the dust of the Big Bang.

What's more, compared to being strange, who could be more strange than her time traveler.

"Personality is nothing more than personality - it's not about 'what you are', it's about 'what you do'."

"So, you are what you think you are, and what kind of person you want to be, just do it. Zhong is Zhongye. No matter how long the attributive is, or what you use to call it, it is you."

The eyes of the boy whose head was patted lit up, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, he nodded with his lips pursed.

——I know that you also have a little secret from me.

Alice didn't expose it.He just smiled and retracted his hand.As she expected, Nakaya did have "no memory", but it didn't mean he didn't know anything about himself - he already knew his name and his first memory, and it was normal to know more about others.

She just doesn't care.Let alone children, everyone has their own secrets.And kid's little secret - how cute that word sounds.

Then the next one is the last one.

Alice looked at the young man with golden-green eyes: "What are you going to do in the future?"

Rimbaud's eyes blurred for a moment, and then he heard himself say, "I'm going to find someone, my partner who came with me, he is my very important friend. I..."

However, Alice interrupted him.

In front of his eyes, the little girl frowned, and she took a deep breath, like a sigh.Then, under Rimbaud's puzzled gaze, she hugged him suddenly, and with a lot of strength, she put her arms around the young man's neck, forcing him to bow his head.

Rimbaud was a little confused, but the gaze made him subconsciously not want to refuse, the young man bent down following the girl's strength, her fingers inserted into his hair, and pressed his head against his chest.

It was an unambiguous posture considering her age, the child's delicate breath and high body temperature came, as if ironing from the skin all the way to the bottom of the heart.

But the next moment, he heard the girl whispering softly next to his ear.

"When I found you, apart from the bumps and abrasions, the most severe wound you suffered from being attacked was on your back."

"what…………"

All the emotions receded from the golden-green eyes in an instant, and in the darkness created by the girl's embrace, Rimbaud's pupils were clear.

He remembered.

"That's right...Paul, isn't it...so you..."

Betrayed me.

Alice held the young man's head in her arms and narrowed her eyes.

"Chuya, Kazutaro go upstairs." She said so, reaching out to stroke Rimbaud's hair.

Next, it is not what children should listen to.
