After retirement I became a guardian of troubled youth

Chapter 86 The First Day of Entering the Brave New World

At nine o'clock in the morning on the day of the final battle, everyone arrived at the gate of the headquarters on time, laying in ambush at the location that had been arranged earlier, quietly waiting for the command of the commander.

Except for certain four people who do not belong to this world.

They came here at a certain point, did not take any camouflage measures, and did not intend to hide at all, and directly stepped into the gate of the headquarters.

The person standing guard at the door didn't even bother to stop him.

Indeed, the two faces of Chuya Nakahara and Ranpo Edogawa are too representative in this place.

The two of them are equivalent to the passport of the entire organization.

Kudo Shinichi silently watched their every move, his lips moved for a long time, and finally said nothing.

harm.

For them, disorganization and discipline are the norm.

Anyway, as long as the final goal can be achieved.

He paid attention to the time, and was going to wait for the four people to enter 10 minutes before giving everyone a signal to act together.

In the headquarters building, the four of Hikari Ueno had already arrived at the lobby on the first floor.

Indeed, as Osamu Dazai's information said, today's headquarters building is empty and quiet, and there is almost no one there.

There was only one person sitting in the hall on the first floor.

The man leaned leisurely on the sofa, with five cups of warm boiled water in front of him, he waved to them, and greeted them familiarly: "Come on~"

It's Osamu Dazai.

Edogawa walked over to him and sat down, and pulled Ueno Hikaru to his side.

Zhong Yuanzhong also examined his leisurely appearance and asked, "Have you found something?"

"Yes." Osamu Dazai nodded confidently.

"Where?"

"Hmm..." Osamu Dazai held the cup, lowered his head and took a sip of his saliva, showing a bright smile, "It's at Mr. Mori's place."

other people:"???"

"Yes." Osamu Dazai emphasized again, "It's at Mr. Mori's place."

other people:"……"

"So, we still have to go to him now?"

"Of course not." Osamu Dazai smiled, he raised his hand and pointed to the corridor leading to the other end, "Mr. Mori will come to us with something."

Almost at the same time as his voice fell, the sound of steady footsteps echoed in the corridor.

Five people turned their heads to look at the past at the same time.

A man in a black windbreaker and a red scarf appeared at the end of the corridor. He stopped, looked at everyone present, and laughed.

He took out his hand that had been in his pocket, and between his fingers was a piece of white paper folded into a square.

The man walked towards them and asked at the same time, "This is what you've been looking for, right?"

Osamu Dazai nodded, and spoke first: "Yes, thank you, Mr. Mori, for bringing it here. Anyway, there is no time left, so there is no need for extra thanks."

Mori Ogai smiled, stood still in front of them, and unfolded the piece of paper.

"When I got it, I was always wondering why this piece of paper is so useless, but it contains so much energy. In order to pursue efficiency, I usually choose to give up on things that I can't study." The white paper flipped over , He turned the side with the writing on to face the five people, "However... I didn't remember it until some time ago, when two of my subordinates both started looking for this thing at the same time."

There was a draft.

Blow that page back and forth.

Mori Ogai's eyes froze on the page, his eyes flickered with a dark light that he thought he didn't understand, "It seems that he is very important to you."

He paused and changed his words: "Or, it's for your world."

"This thing is useless to me. If you really want it, I will be happy to give it to you for free. After all, I am more useful to you than such a useless thing to me." Be more interested." He raised the corners of his lips, sighed abruptly, and continued on his own, "It's a pity...you don't believe me."

"What? Am I that bad in another world? As the leader of an organization, I can't even gain the trust of my subordinates."

"Of course not." Zhongyuan Zhong also pressed the brim of his hat and spoke first, "We just don't trust you."

"But we are all Mori Ogai, aren't we?" The man laughed, and the smile on the corner of his mouth widened a little bit, as if he had thought of something very interesting, "After I learned that you are from another world, I thought about it for a long time …about the difference and interoperability between worlds.”

He paused for a moment, and then slowly shifted his gaze from Nakahara Nakaya to Dazai Osamu.

"In fact, in essence, I am the same person in every world, am I not? It is just because of the difference in 'possibility' that I have different life experiences in different worlds. However, if these experiences are divided , Different experiences in different worlds can actually be classified into the same category. For example..."

He smiled slightly, turned down a little serious, and glanced at Chuya Nakahara, Osamu Dazai, and Ranpo Edogawa.

"You are in another world, and there is a high possibility that you are my subordinates."

Mori Ogai's eyes met Edogawa's random steps, he paused for a moment, touched his chin, and said in a very sure tone: "You are the least likely."

Then, his eyes fell on Osamu Dazai again, with a shallow and cold smile: "You will leave."

The last is Zhongye in the Central Plains.

"As for Chuya...he will be my good subordinate."

"How?" Mori Ogai asked, "Is my guess correct?"

The eyes of the three people he pointed to became a little serious.

After a while, Edogawa shrugged his shoulders in disorder, and said, "That's not it. It's a big mistake."

He puffed his cheeks, looked very unhappy, and made a face at Mori Ogai: "I won't have anything to do with people like you."

Mori Ogai was stunned for a moment, not angry, but just smiled and said, "Really?"

He didn't seem to believe his answer either.

"So, Mr. Mori," Dazai Osamu interrupted his guess, "what do you want?"

Mori Ogai did not answer directly, he lowered his eyes and slowly folded the paper again, like a patient and gentle gentleman.

"You have pushed me to the point where I have no way out." He spoke slowly, clearly speaking of a very urgent matter, but still calm, as if he already had a countermeasure.

"So, I have no choice but to exchange this with you."

He put the page of the book in his palm, made a gesture of a gentleman inviting a dance partner, looked at Hikari Ueno,

"I don't know if you would like it or not?"

Kuroba Kaito moved to the side, blocking Mori Ogai's view of Ueno Hikari, and talked to him instead of Ueno Hikari: "Mr. Mori wants to go to our world? I'm afraid it won't work."

"We didn't drive this road in the first place. Even if we want you to go, his master will not agree."

"As for meeting that person... don't even think about it. He is under strict surveillance now and has no chance to come into contact with any other life."

"Really?" Mori Ogai straightened up, "That's really a pity."

Although he said so, there was no regret in his tone.

It sounded more like he had expected this answer a long time ago.

"It seems that I have to change one condition."

"It's no use delaying time." Edogawa Ranpo suddenly interrupted him, "Your people have been controlled by us a long time ago. You are fighting alone now."

"So, don't think about any conditions, give us the things quickly~"

Mori Owai raised his lips, shook his head and denied, "I'm not waiting for anyone."

Hearing the words, Edogawa was stunned for a moment, his expression suddenly changed.

The expressions of the others became tense for a moment.

Hikaru Ueno's earphones rang out, accompanied by Kudo Shinichi's vague question: "How are you doing over there? Can you go in?"

Hikaru Ueno glanced across the circle of people present, and remembered the task that Shinichi Kudo had given him at that time.

He demanded that no one else be in the hall except Hikari Ueno.

But now the situation is...

This hall is no different from being full of people.

"No—" He had just said a word in denial when a figure suddenly flashed beside him.

Zhong Yuanzhong also hugged him around the waist without any warning, and before he could react, he had already rushed to the corridor with him.

The other four also moved at the same time.

Together with Osamu Dazai, Kuroba Kaito tied up Mori Ogai in an instant, and then dragged him into the corridor together.

Almost the second the two of them stepped into the corridor, a huge explosion sounded against their backs.

The hall, which was neat and clean just now, became a mess in an instant.

The monstrous fire ignited centered on the hall, swept upwards, and filled the entire room in an instant.

Without stopping for a moment, they fled down the corridor to the depths.

At the end of the corridor, there is a small door leading to the outside.

Being tied up by them, Mori Ogai was still calm and relaxed, and even had the leisure to appreciate the fire.

"I have always thought that fire is a beautiful thing. It is extremely aggressive and aggressive, so it is extremely beautiful." He narrowed his eyes and still had a smile on his lips.

"Before today, I have been looking for an optimal solution." Mori Ogai chatted with them calmly while being dragged away by them, "But unfortunately, in the end, I found this is the only option."

Nakahara Nakaya turned around abruptly, raised his foot and kicked a piece of the ceiling that fell from above his head, and then when he passed by Mori Ogai, he took the time to reply him: "That's really a pity."

Mori Ogai froze for a moment, then suddenly laughed happily.

Kuroba Kaito gave him a puzzled look, and accidentally met his gaze.

Mori Ogai asked him: "Are you wondering why I am so happy?"

Kuroba Kaito raised his eyebrows.

Mori Ogai suppressed his smile, pondered for a moment, and said, "Well... because I seem to be trusted by my subordinates."

"As the leader of an organization, he is already qualified."

As he spoke, he pulled out the piece of paper from his pocket, turned around, and inserted it into Chuya Zhongya's pocket.

"Oh yes, there is actually one more thing that I didn't have time to say just now."

Seeing that the exit door was getting closer, Mori Ogai suddenly broke free and stopped.

He stood where he was, smiling and looking at the people in front of him.

The bright fireworks behind him were getting closer and closer, and the scorching heat burned the surrounding air.

Standing in it, Mori Ogai said calmly: "I've always wondered when the possibility of the so-called 'parallel world' started."

Bright tongues of flame swept over, biting the hem of his clothes.

"Later, I thought about it. It seems that from the moment you appeared, this world began to become alive."

"Only if you exist, can the possibility of this world be established."

The flames burned more and more intensely, almost engulfing him whole.

"It's a ridiculous world, isn't it?"

As soon as Mori Ogai's voice fell, a huge explosion resounded throughout the building.

Zhongyuan Zhong also hurriedly pulled Ueno Hikaru out the door.

Kudo Shinichi's anxious cry echoed in the headset.

They escaped before the building completely collapsed.

A moment later, there was a bright fire here.

The beautiful flames stretched out in all directions.

They stood on the periphery, quietly watching the fire burn.

Osamu Dazai was silent for a moment, looked around, picked up an unknown flower and threw it into the flames.

The flower turned into ashes in the blink of an eye and disappeared.

Osamu Dazai laughed, with a complicated look on his face.

"Mr. Sen." He spoke softly, his voice swallowed by fireworks, "You really found the 'optimal solution'."

Zhong Yuanzhong also took out the page of the book and threw it into the fire as well.

The pages of the book spun around in the fire, came back with blazing heat, and fell lightly in front of Ueno Hikaru.

Hikaru Ueno caught the paper, lit a dark purple fire at his fingertips, and burned it up bit by bit.

"Don't worry." Kaito Kuroba turned his head and looked at Kudo Shinichi who hurried over. He smiled like a 16-year-old boy, "Once the possibility is established, it will last forever."

Kudo Shinichi looked at each other, hesitating to speak.

He was silent for a moment, before finally speaking: "But that's just a possibility."

"But everything started because of a 'possibility'." Edogawa Ranpo said, "Mori Ogai only chose his optimal solution, not yours."

"You are still here, and possibilities are not just possibilities."

"...What about you?"

"us?"

Kuroba Kaito waved at him, and walked into this seemingly endless fire together with the others.

"To create more possibilities."

His voice was distorted through the flames.

Like from another world.

Kudo Shinichi stood by the edge of the fire, feeling the scorching heat.

He was silent for a long time, and pressed the headset.

"The first phase of the operation has been successful, the next phase of the goal—"

He took a deep breath, raised the corners of his mouth,

"To create a new future."
