Bandage fine tricks

Different from "reading" where you can see ten lines at a glance without making a sound, read the text out - especially after Osamu Dazai couldn't cope with the request and was rejected the option of fast and ruthless reading, even if Hachi really wanted to finish reading quickly On the phone, I still have to read the words with a normal speech speed...

Forget it, think about it better, what Mr. Dazai asks is not to finish reading a few chapters every day, but to read it for half an hour every day. That is to say, no matter how many chapters I read, the time is a real half an hour, which cannot be shortened. Thinking about it this way It seems that there is no problem with slowing down the speed of public execution... I enlightened myself in my heart, Xiaoba finished reading the male protagonist's biased speech, and turned to the next page, and there was the answer of the bewildered god: "'Why does Cesar think so?' The good god beside him, whom only he could see, showed an expression that seemed to have encountered some incomprehensible problem, 'Why do you think that trusting others is a wrong thing? thing?'"

This is a small plot at the beginning, which is related to the setting of the world view of "Apostle of God": a disaster called "gray fog" will erupt in this world from time to time. When the gray fog comes, people must immediately hide Place the faith object in the house and close all doors and windows, and use the power of the faith object to protect yourself in the "grey fog".

When the "grey fog" hits, even if you hear someone knocking on the door, you must never open the door. Someone once heard the voice of an acquaintance outside the door asking for help asking him to enter the house when the fog was filled, and forgot the church's warning He opened the door, but when the gray fog receded, people only saw the open door of their house. There was no loss of tables, chairs and items, and there were no additional traces, but the people who stayed inside were gone.

Since then, no one has seen him again.

Only when the priests sprinkled holy water on the street in groups, chanted the words of the Bible, and the holy light resonated with the religious objects in the house through the crack of the door, did it signal that the gray fog receded and the door could be opened. .

As for the objects of faith, they are objects that have been baptized with holy water in the church. The most common ones are the cross and the Bible.

If the "grey fog" comes, if you fail to enter the building with the faith objects in time, unless you carry the faith objects blessed by the archbishop-level priests, you will be swallowed by the "gray fog", and you will not see people in life or death. corpse.

Even with the faith object blessed by the archbishop, it can only last for a while. As time goes by, the power of the faith object becomes weaker and weaker. When it cannot resist the invasion of the "grey fog", it will fall into the People will still be devoured.

The church where the protagonist is located received a warning of the "gray fog". The priests took action and informed the townspeople to go home and take shelter immediately. But when the "gray fog" receded, the priests went one by one to inform each household that the danger receded and they could open the door. When I was there, I found that the door of a family was open.

There was no one there, and the religious objects that had been placed in front of the hall were gone.

The nearby neighbors reported that there was only a kind-hearted pharmacist living here, but the protagonist found out after carefully checking the traces in the house that there should be a seriously injured man living here.

Noticing that the wrong protagonist met a knight in a field hut outside the city, subdued him directly and turned him to the church, and asked the bishop to convict him for murdering the pharmacist.

Suddenly he was told that this person was the murderer who caused the pharmacist to disappear in the "gray fog". The bishop was also at a loss, and the knight couldn't help but struggle to defend his innocence, but under the protagonist's statement, his face turned pale little by little. ——This young man, who was dressed completely different from the sacrificial robes but could still be seen as a priest, stated everything he had done as if he had seen it with his own eyes: He was seriously injured and asked for help from his acquainted friend, the pharmacist, and the kind pharmacist hid him He went home to recuperate, but knowing his identity as a wanted criminal, he was afraid that one day he would wake up and find the door opened and walk in the law enforcement team. The person who saved him would betray him for a bounty, so he took advantage of the fog when The religious objects blessed by the archbishop placed in front of the hall opened the door and took the opportunity to escape.

The pharmacist who had lost the blessing of the faith object was swallowed by the "gray fog" and disappeared. Before the faith object expired, he arrived at the hut outside the city and hid. When the gray fog receded and was about to leave, he encountered the The young man, before he had time to say anything, was beaten unconscious by the young man, and was tied up in the church after waking up.

The young man asked the bishop when he would bless the pharmacist's object of belief, calculated the maximum time it could last, and then deduced how far the person could run based on this time. In the end, he successfully found the person near the hut outside the city.

Being able to live alone, the pharmacist also has her own means of protecting her life. Various potions and powders with various uses can teach anyone who dares to disrespect her the most severe lesson in life, but the pharmacist with such methods is easily killed by him. Because she didn't guard against her friend at all.

The protagonist's emotion about "trust" is sent out when the fallen knight is sent to the law enforcement team, and the plot is about to end. Gently holding the young man's bowed head, he let his expression show in front of his face——the young man who said sarcastic words, but his face was empty and indifferent as if he had despaired of this world.

"Cesar, I don't think so. The act of trust is not wrong, and the medicine man has done nothing wrong." The good god held his face in the light-condensed hands, and the voice composed of wind said softly, " She just 'failed to do something in time', not something she 'did wrong'."

Saving people is not a wrong act in itself, even if the person saved is a heinous and wicked person.

It is the courts and laws of this country that can judge the actions of this villain and punish him, not the people who take the opportunity to make up for this villain when he is in trouble.

No one's personal consciousness is above the law.

"If she was born in a world surrounded by goodness, then she would not have encountered such a thing," said the good god softly. "It is this evil world that is at fault, not her."

"But such a world does not exist," Cesar looked at his god. "Human badness is such a thing."

"I know." He saw the god's smile in the light, like snow-white flowers swaying in the wind when the gray fog recedes, "Because, I was born from this."

When the clock pointed to 09:30, Xiao Ba just ended a paragraph, and suddenly heaved a sigh of relief: "Then let's stop here today...Mr. Dazai?"

She belatedly realized that it seemed that Mr. Dazai hadn't heard Mr. Dazai's voice in the earphones for a long time - when she was holding back her shame at first, Mr. Dazai would respond a little bit, such as saying yes He was listening, when did these sounds disappear?

... Could it be that he fell asleep? ?

After a while, Mr. Dazai's voice came from the earphone: "I'm here..." The voice was soft and thin, making Xiaoba suspect that he had pressed the volume button to the lowest volume.

"...Mr. Dazai, are you alright?" Xiao Ba asked worriedly, could it be that the level of secondary school in this book is so high that Mr. Dazai has been hit like this?

After all, it's "it's not her who's wrong, it's this world" and "good deeds are the breeding ground for evil". People with normal logic will think that this is all nonsense, not to mention Mr. Dazai's prototype seems to be the same A certain writer, maybe his literary literacy is still there, so it’s not surprising that hearing this kind of content is as disgusting as swallowing his most hated slug...

"Woo..." Mr. Dazai made a sound as if he was about to cry, "Why does Hachi want to write such a protagonist? When this happens, he doesn't think of the good side, only the worst. situation, people who have no hope for life and the world..."

Wow, this summary is really accurate, I have only read a few chapters!

As expected of Mr. Dazai, his reading comprehension skills are superb!

Xiao Ba nodded inwardly.

As for why you want to write such a protagonist?

Xiao Ba thought about the conception process of this book, the design of the two main characters, and after thinking for a while, he said: "You have to ask why... There is no why, this book is born for him."

"This book, the world in this book, all the characters in this world, all the events, all the people and things Cesar encountered, all appeared because of him."

A world made for him.

— After all, he is the protagonist!

Is there any need for a world that does not revolve around the protagonist?

Xiaoba thought to himself, looked at the time, and said, "It's almost there, then, Mr. Dazai, good night?"

There was no sound from the earphones for a moment, and after a while, the young man's voice came: "Good night, Xiaoba."

Press the playback button, the girl's voice rang in my ears again:

"There is no reason, this book was born for him."

Osamu Dazai opened his iris-colored eyes.

Who could this "he" be?

I can confirm that I have never revealed my thoughts that are as ugly and rotten as mud in the gutter in front of Xiaoba, so why does Xiaoba seem to live in his heart—ah, this description is wrong, Xiaoba lives in his heart in the first place— —It should be said, as if he could hear his inner voice, creating a character so similar to what he thought?

...someone like him.

A very annoying figure emerged from his mind, making Osamu Dazai frown uncontrollably.

The person who contacted the coffee shop and found out that Xiao Ba looked at Xiao Ba differently...

A guess emerged.

.

At the same time, somewhere in the slums of Yokohama, Fyodor had just finished reading the opening plot of the last book "Apostle" bought in the street in the afternoon, and Fyodor fell into deep thought:

Such dark thoughts are not Katyusha's character, so who did the protagonist's template come from?

alone?

I have to say that many of the protagonist's views coincide with his own, and his first reaction is almost the character Katyusha created based on him.

But Katyusha hasn't remembered that memory, so this possibility can be ruled out.

The most likely remaining...

Even though they are in two places, the thinking results of the two different people are surprisingly similar:

The prototype of this book will not be that mouse/that Osamu Dazai, right?
