The night breeze was gentle, bringing a little coolness, and also a little smell of mayonnaise that was barely smellable.Looking out from the balcony of Wanshiwu, the outside is a peaceful and peaceful scenery.

The commotion of the day had long since subsided.People seem to forget that there was a man who looked like a madman who was spraying mayonnaise on buildings and turning them into mayonnaise factories a few hours ago.Kabukicho, as always, is immersed in the colorful night, comforting those who need warmth.

"...Should I say it's a big nerve or what...?"

Looking at the peaceful streets, he rested his chin on one hand and muttered to himself as if sighing.

——It is not the first time he knows that human beings have such a strong ability to accept, nor is it the first time that human beings are good at deceiving themselves, like an ostrich in danger, immersed in a moment of tranquility and pretending not to see danger Animals that have approached.

It's just that no matter how many times Yin Shi has seen this scene, he will always feel that human beings are really tenacious and terrifying creatures.

No matter how much hurt you have suffered, no matter how much sorrow you have endured, as long as your life has not passed away, human beings can start over countless times.Even if, everything that has been rebuilt is about to face the fate of being destroyed.

(...Humans really don't get bored. This kind of behavior is like building a castle on the beach.)

With the spoon in his hand, he scooped up a large piece of sugar-free pudding and brought it to his mouth. Yinshi quickly let out a voice that was so refreshing: "Woo~~~...!!"

"It's super delicious! It's sugar-free! But it's still super delicious! By the way, why didn't I notice that this sugar-free pudding is super delicious? Ahh... I really don't know this kind of sugar-free pudding. I feel sorry for the past when sugar pudding was so delicious..."

Talking to himself, he gulped down the whole pudding, Gintoki put the disposable spoon and the empty pudding box on the balcony railing with a satisfied face.

(Well... I am also a human being. I am a human being who can live desperately as long as I think that maybe I will be able to eat a big meal tomorrow. So——)

If someone asks Yinshi: If tomorrow the world will be destroyed.So what are you going to do from now on?

Yinshi would probably answer that person like this: Huh?oh.First go find the guy who wants to destroy the world and beat him up.If the world is finally destroyed, then it is better to prepare to restore the destroyed world.

"The hot pot banquet is about to start?"

Someone came to the balcony, it was the girl who brought sugar-free pudding to Gintoki, and also brought a luxurious hot pot banquet to this house of all things.

"Mr. Gintoki doesn't come into the house again, I'm not responsible for the hot pot being eaten by Kagura Shinpachi~?"

Fuyutsuki Hoshino calls himself a "demon hunter" who hunts demons.

"Hi~~..."

Turning around and leaning against the guardrail, patting his belly full of desserts, Yin Shi hiccupped in a very inconspicuous manner.Then he looked slowly at the girl in front of him.

"I'm an adult, how could I compete with their two children? Let them have a good time today."

Gintoki didn't know where his words had the element of making others laugh, but the girl in front of him smiled, and smiled happily.

"You can't finish eating dessert until dinner...is that really Gintoki-san's style~?"

"..."

Even Yin Shi, who has met many people and encountered many things, would still feel like a talkative person when he hears a person he just met today talk about his "style" with him in a tone that seems to be familiar to him. Inexplicably familiar.But because the girl in front of him was the one who talked about his "style" with him in this tone, so Gintoki just felt that the girl's familiarity, which is not so annoying, was a bit subtle.

"The last meal before death is of course hoping to eat your favorite food until you are full?"

Talking casually, Yinshi poked Dongyue intentionally or unintentionally.

"Then Gintoki-san will definitely not die tomorrow~"

Dongyue, who was half a head shorter than Yinshi, walked to Yinshi's side while talking.She smiled as she looked at the peaceful Kabukicho beyond the balcony.

"Because Gintoki-san will come back alive to drink strawberry milk, eat chocolate sundaes, eat Uji Gintoki bowls, and eat a lot of sweets~...isn't it?"

"..."

Dongyue's words made Yinshi sigh with a headache.

Although he really doesn't want to agree with the existence of "devils" and "devil hunters", and he doesn't like people who don't know the proper way to talk about his affairs in a tone that knows him well, but he can't hate Dongyue who seems to know him well.He couldn't hate this girl who was clearly aware of his prying, but still accepted his prying so frankly.

"……Hello,"

Yinshi opened his mouth and looked up at the dark blue night sky.The lights on the land were so dazzling that the stars in the night sky seemed to stop shining.But it is precisely this seemingly unbeautiful night sky that makes Gintoki feel at ease.

——Compared with the stunningly beautiful night sky seen standing on the battlefield full of corpses after the war, Gintoki prefers this night sky polluted by artificial lights.

"What~?"

"It's really not money for life, is it?"

Yinshi's question made Dongyue silent for a second.

Yinshi didn't know whether this second of silence represented Dongyue's regret, sadness or sadness for her doubts, or it meant that Dongyue never thought that her behavior could be understood in this way.Either Dongyue didn't expect that Yinshi would guess the meaning of such a generous advance payment, or she didn't expect that Yinshi would ask this question so straightforwardly.

It's not that Yinshi is suspicious by nature and misinterprets the fact that Dongyue used so many things as "deposit" to pay in advance.It's just that he has been in the Wanshiwu business for a long time, and Yinshi knows very well that most of the customers do not intend to pay a penny until their goals are achieved.After all, if the Wanshiwu fails to complete the task, all the money paid by the guests in advance will be in vain.People are selfish, and no one wants their own interests to be harmed.So once you meet a customer who pays a lot of money voluntarily from the very beginning, it is a signal that "danger is imminent".

"……no."

Dongyue turned her head sideways.Her half-length hair was slightly undulating by the night wind.

Dongyue is not the roundworm in Yinshi's stomach, knowing what Yinshi is thinking.But Dongyue can understand Yinshi's reason for interpreting her behavior as "life money"-paying in advance also means that the party concerned cannot pay afterwards, or the executor cannot collect the money.

Under the circumstances this time, it is very risky to help a person like himself who has no fighting ability to defeat the devil.Therefore, Yinshi regards Dongyue's entrustment of Wanshiwu's help as a mission that will never return.

(Actually, I just want Yinsang Kagura Sauce and Xinbaji to taste better...)

Dongyue smiled wryly in her heart.She couldn't tell Yinshi that she always watched the three people in Wanshiwu always worry about rent and living expenses, so she wanted to help the three people in Wanshiwu improve their quality of life, and let the three of them and a dog have a good meal by the way.

(After the detainment and exorcism, Yinsang and the others will not have the memory of me and Qiqi coming. At that time, they probably could not pay Yinsang and the others. Even if they did, it would become "things and money suddenly appeared in the house of everything" It’s a strange thing to come. Besides——)

"Mr. Gintoki's life is not that cheap. Even if Mr. Gintoki's life is so cheap, Kagura and Shinpachi's lives are definitely more than that."

This is Dongyue's sincere words.So Dongyue said it very naturally.

On the other hand, Yinshi looked a little unnatural after hearing what Dongyue said: "...Aren't you afraid that we will eat yours and take yours and then not help you? Or we helped you but you still failed to defeat the attached There are many strings around you, but you haven't succeeded in catching that demon you want to catch?"

Hearing this, Dongyue smiled.

"It will surely succeed."

"Absolutely, it will succeed."

Dongyue didn't say this because she believed that Yinshi had the aura of the protagonist on her body, and that the three people in Wanshiwu had the strongest gold fingers as the protagonists.

"Bet on my life and the determination not to let this world be destroyed, I will definitely catch the devil and restore Hijikata-san to normal."

(Yeah. I'm the main character, right?)

(I will not lose to Yinsang and Kagura-chan Shinbaji~)

Hoshino Fuyuki is the protagonist of his own world.Dongyue, who regards herself as the "protagonist", will not push what she should do to others, just sit by and watch the success, and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman.Dongyue, who is the "protagonist", will achieve her goals in her own way and with her own strength.

He was startled by Dongyue's words, and then sighed helplessly; Yinshi scratched his messy-looking silver natural curly hair.

"'Betting your life'? And 'awareness not to let the world be destroyed'? There is no need for such things. If this kind of world is destroyed, it will be destroyed."

"Aha……?"

Yinshi's words startled Dongyue.

"Anyway, no matter how many times it is destroyed, as long as there is life left, human beings can still build a new world. So you—"

The big hand patted the top of Dongyue's head.

"Don't die."

"..."

Staring in amazement at the back of Yinshi walking towards the house, Dongyue was stunned for a while, then stretched out her hand to press the top of her head that was patted by Yinshi just now.

"...Really, how far do you want the protagonist to go. Yin-san——"
