"Walk."

She stared at the sign blankly and said to the orange-haired child.

"What?" The orange-haired child couldn't figure out the current situation.

She took out a gun from her waist, and when the orange-haired child showed a vigilant expression, she fired several shots at the motionless corpse lying on the ground, then raised her foot and stepped heavily on the places where the orange-haired child had kicked. From the wound, bright red blood splashed out, blooming on her shoe like a flower.

Not enough, she used a little more force to sink her foot in until it completely covered the child's footprints.

There was no expression on her face, and she didn't look very solemn, but her calmness was a bit scary.

"I'm the only one here, you've never been here before." The girl covered up the traces he had left one by one, then walked up to the orange-haired child and picked up his small body, "You have the ability to control gravity." Ability, I will throw you out in a while, you escape along the top, don't leave any traces."

Her voice was very calm, and her tone was not commanding, as if she was talking about an unimportant matter.

"No, what are you doing?" The child wanted to struggle, but when he heard her words, he became confused, "What exactly are you trying to do?"

"Haven't you seen it yet?" The girl looked ahead quietly, she ran for a while along the dirty alleys of the Yokohama Concession, glanced at the several slender antennas that split the sky above, and determined the target. "I'm saving you. You are not good at hiding. If you just leave like this, you will be discovered by Mafia soon."

"I know." The child's tone was somewhat exasperated, "I know you are saving me, but why did you do that?"

"People don't realize until they are about to die that they are living to redeem themselves." She said this for no reason.

The orange-haired child was stunned: "What are you talking about?"

"No, what, I just thought of it suddenly." She looked up at the sky and murmured, the child saw her eyelashes trembling slightly in the sun, and the tea-brown eyes that had just dried up were shining brightly at this moment, "This is just my personal understanding , In fact, this sentence should be saying that if you want to be saved, you must first save others."

"What bullshit theory, it's not reasonable at all! Are you a fool!" the child said angrily, "What's the use of saving others if you're going to die!"

"Indeed, it doesn't seem to make sense." She said with a sigh, "But death is a part of human beings after all, and I was thinking again, whether killing someone who wants to die will allow the other person to gain salvation, or to persuade him To be free from death is to redeem him."

"...What the hell are you talking about, and, hey, put me down."

"Actually, no matter how you think about it, you got a momentary salvation while you were alive, and death is just a continuation of salvation... Since you will receive real salvation when you are alive... In other words, in the final analysis, is it better to live?" She Muttering to himself, this made the child irritated again.

"Hey--"

"Well, forget it for now." The girl said flatly, "Come on, fly up."

"What, you—"

The orange-haired child was thrown high by her before he had time to reason with her.

While the world was upside down, he watched the crimson sun hang high, and the red-haired girl was hanging upside down in the air like a hanged man, quietly continuing to speak incomprehensible words.

"Speaking of which, I have read another book. The characters in the book once said a word. To be honest, I didn't know what it meant before."

"The character said that if all things were viewed in terms of utility, there would be nothing noble in the world.[1]"

"Although there is a gap with what the author wants to express, I probably understand a little bit now."

She paused, and seemed to reveal a shallow smile.

"...I don't want to die yet, but I don't regret doing so."

But since she can only be redeemed by living, no matter what she encounters, she will try her best to live on.

"Who did you say beautiful to?"

He raised his head proudly, raised his eyebrows and smiled dangerously.

The pitch-black windbreaker fluttered with the wind, stretching behind him like butterfly wings.

The orange-red hair that still glowed brightly in the darkness fluttered slightly, and fell on his open collar, and Oda Kazue saw a few strands of hair fluttering to the clear collarbone.

The boy's long-opened face became sharper and sharper. A simple raised eyebrow can make Oda Kazue jump from intimidating to coquettish, but if his thoughts are known to him, he may be quarreled for a long time.

"Nakaya." Oda Kazue looked at the young man who shook off Aizawa's hand, paused slightly, and said softly, "The word beautiful is very suitable for you."

His arrogance suddenly went down, from the awesome akimbo to murmuring with his arms crossed: "...do you think it's okay to use this kind of word to describe a man?"

"In my opinion, Chu is both powerful and beautiful." Oda Kazue stepped forward and grabbed the black-haired man's wrist, pulling the black-haired hero who could no longer tell the difference, and asked, "Where is your room?"

"The second room on the left." The black-haired man answered obediently.

Zhongyuan Zhong also stared at her hand sharply, "Throw this guy out of here and it will be quiet."

"It will indeed be quiet, but I will not be quiet as a murderer in the future."

Her frank words made the young man frown again, and stared at her back with an inaudible murmur.

"...as if we hadn't killed anyone." But the words just lingered between the lips and did not leak into the air.

When Nakahara Nakaya said this, Oda Kazue had already pulled the man by the wrist and pulled him into the room, which made Nakahara Nakahara who was standing in the living room stupidly a little tasteless.

He is the only one who usually enjoys this treatment...

With such a small voice coming out of his heart, Zhongyuan Zhong also froze in place and didn't dare to think too much.

He has already taken too much from her, and if this continues, he won't be like him anymore.

When he was standing in the living room waiting for Kazue Oda, Kazue Oda was pressing the man back into the soft bed and covering him with the quilt just like he did with Saku Le and Kosuke.

It's just that Aizawa is much more honest than those little bastards. When she got up, the black-haired hero was already nestled in the bed like a child, quietly closing his eyes, breathing shallowly.

Before leaving, Oda Kazue quietly looked at his sleeping face, his eyes traced his relaxed eyebrows, and muttered something as if talking to himself.

"Next time, say something like this when you are sober."

The lights in the room were turned off, the door was gently closed, and the man lying quietly on the bed opened his eyes, his dark pupils flickering quietly in the darkness.

"Say it when you're awake..."

Rolling these words in his throat like a dream, the man suddenly pulled the quilt up to cover his head, turned over and buried his face on the pillow, and the pink ears were faintly visible in the gap between the quilt and the pillow .

Oda Kazue closed the door, turned and walked towards the boy who was standing there waiting for her.

In fact, whether it is Dazai or Nakahara Chuya, it is a bit inappropriate to use the word "boy" to describe them, but Kazue Oda knew them a long time ago, so in her opinion, they have not changed much.

"Chuya, were you sent by the forest doctor... the leader?" She approached the boy and asked.

After asking, she felt that she was unnecessary. The young man in front of her was a cadre, and only the leader could call him.

"It's not a big deal, just drinking and chatting with some old guys. Compared to me, that mackerel is obviously more suitable." He raised his eyebrows irritably, "What about you? What did the leader ask you to do?"

"Being a thug for Li Nanhui."

"What is the leader thinking? You are asked to do such chores." He muttered.

Oda Kazue lit a cigarette for himself, and said slowly, "Because I'm just a junior member doing odd jobs."

From the lower-level members who were with Chief Mori when he was still Doctor Mori?

Zhong Yuanzhong also knew that she had been trying to get rid of this identity, so he didn't say any more, and raised his finger behind him, "I brought your things."

"You brought it?" Oda blinked in surprise, and looked at the duffel bag left on the balcony, "I'll just go and get it myself, and I'll trouble you for such a trivial matter."

"Tsk, you have to be polite to me about this."

Zhong Yuanzhong also couldn't bear her out-of-the-way appearance, she always bothered him too much, making him seem like he had done something big.

Obviously she has done so many things that he will not be able to figure them out for the rest of his life.

Oda still said as if he was returning the favor, "Then I'll invite Chuya to drink next time."

"Oh." Zhong Yuanzhong also raised his spirits, "Then I will book a hotel."

"If you order, you must pay the bill in the end."

"So what's the matter, I'm willing to pay the bill without hindering the store's business." He raised his eyebrows, speaking with confidence.

Oda Kazue smiled at him, seeing him turn his head awkwardly, suddenly remembered the gun he saw today.

The cadre's sources of information are much wider than hers, and it will be faster to ask Zhongyuan Zhongya. She looked straight at Zhongyuan Chuya, and hesitated to speak. irritable.

"What do you want to say?"

Oda glanced at Aizawa's room, and asked him softly as if afraid of waking him up, "Do you know the organization that wears the gray ghost?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also looked at her suspiciously: "I know, it's MIMIC, why are you asking this?"

MIMIC?This organization is inexplicably familiar.

Oda Kazue searched for information about MIMIC in his mind.

"The person who kidnapped Sakule today is a member of MIMIC. I'm a little concerned." She said, and when she saw the boy's face, her face darkened instantly. It looked as if she could swallow two Dazai alive, and the members of the port mafia saw it. I guess I was too scared to breathe out.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

Zhong Yuanzhong also frowned, confirmed yes and repeated: "You said MIMIC? Why did you involve them again?"

again?

Oda Kazue looked at him in confusion.

Could it be that she killed several MIMIC members when the former leader was still in power?

She still remembers the people she killed before she was the bodyguard of the current leader, but the names of the people she killed after she became the bodyguard are completely unknown.

"Did I kill them before? So now I'm here to take revenge? No, I was mistaken for Mr. Chibayashi's mistress, so Sakule was kidnapped."

Oda Kazue said while pointing to the balcony.

She didn't know which sentence she said was wrong, she saw that Chuya's face darkened again, but despite being upset, he still obediently walked out in the direction Oda pointed with a bad face.

After he walked to the balcony, he turned around and said firmly to her.

"This is impossible."

Oda smiled helplessly, "Indeed, the possibility of me being mistaken for someone else's mistress is very low, but that's not the point..."

"One branch." Zhong Yuanzhong also scratched his hair irritably, and interrupted her with a deep voice.

He raised his brows, his sharp eyebrows were like unsheathed swords, and his azure eyes stared sharply at the woman who always had a calm posture, "I said impossible, because the MIMIC is gone, and it is impossible to bring the dead back to find it." You trouble."

"...What did you say?" After a few seconds of reaction, Oda Kazue's voice was a little surprised.

Can't bring the dead back to life, that is to say, the members of MIMIC are all dead

Zhong Yuanzhong also stared at her, and said in a calm tone, "All the members of MIMIC were killed by you four years ago."

Oda Kazue was stunned in place, Mimic, has... been killed by her?

Zhongyuan Zhong also looked at her expressionlessly, his cobalt blue eyes shone faintly in the darkness, and stared at her for a long while. Seeing that the young man really couldn't remember her, he raised his hand and scratched the back of his head irritably and muttered.

"I forgot, you didn't even know who they were when you killed them." He sighed suddenly, and then he reminded, "Do you remember the attack on the day the former leader died?"

She nodded: "Well, an unidentified person invaded the headquarters that day."

Oda remembered that at that time, a group of people in gray robes rushed to the headquarters of the Port Mafia like crazy. The Port Mafia killed many people that day just to defend against the well-trained intruders. Every few steps, you can see a dead person lying on the ground with slit eyes. At that time, she was still the bodyguard who nominally protected the former leader. After the group of people rushed to the former leader's bedroom, she followed the former leader's order Ordered to kill them all.

Wait, the gray robe...

Oda was slightly taken aback: "The one who broke in at that time was MIMIC."

Seeing that she finally connected these, Chuya nodded.

"That's right, the former leader who was attacked by MIMIC five years ago angrily gave you an order to 'kill them', and then you killed all the remaining MIMIC members and the leader."

Accompanied by his voice, a handsome foreign man appeared in her mind.

Silver hair, silver military uniform, and no emotion in those eyes. As the memory of the man was gradually completed, that man gradually coincided with the person I saw in the department store today.

Ah... that person is...

Zhong Yuan Zhong also said in a deep voice: "The leader's name is—"

"André Gide." Oda Kazue supported his forehead with one hand, and said the man's name with his voice.

She remembered.

At that time, she did not kill the man, but stopped at the last moment.

When she turned around and left without hesitation, the man behind her asked excitedly.

[Why don't you kill me, only you can kill me in this world, I came to this country just because of you.What should I do when you are gone?If you don't kill me, I... What's the point? ]

She answered then.

[In this case, if you want to find meaning, then...Mr. Andre, can you survive in my place? ]

Then they talked a lot, she kept her eyes down like an old man who was dying, and she already regarded herself as a dead person. Later, Andre Gide...

Zhong Yuan Zhong also looked at the pensive woman sharply, and said coldly.

"Ichigo, are you sure what you saw was a member of MIMIC?"

The author has something to say: [After discussing with the editor, I started joining V from June 19st, please give me advice after joining V!The sad thing is that my saved manuscripts have finally bottomed out_(:з」∠)_ If I can’t update at 00:[-] every day, I will explain in advance... Anyway, I will work hard, okay! 】

【Arranging the timeline】

When Oda met Chuya for the first time, she was 16 years old, and Chuya was 11 years old, but according to the story, Chuya’s body only had the consciousness of barbaric vomiting when he was seven or eight years old, that is to say, Chuya was 11 years old. The mental age at the age of 3 should be around [-] years old?

Oda worked as a bodyguard when she was 16-19 years old, now she is 23 years old.

When she was 19, four years ago, Dr. Mori (32) usurped the throne, Chuya (14) joined Yang, Dazai was 14, André Gide was 28, Aizawa Sanzo was 24 .

【Completed_(:з」∠)_】

[1] From Mori Ogai's "The Suicide Note of Kotsuya Goemon"

When I was reading, I saw that this article was explained in the introduction. Mori Ogai borrowed the mouth of the characters in the article to express his opinion: In addition to reasonable usefulness, there are other intangible values ​​in life, which cannot be obtained by profit or loss. Losing weight, and even being unable to use logic to judge, is indeed the unique and precious thing that makes a human being a human being.

Oda has already met Mr. Natsume here, so his mentality has changed.

To sum up all her words, it means 'I know it makes no sense for me to save a stranger, but as long as you are alive, I will save you, there is no other reason, I just want to do it.Even if I die because of this incident, I will not regret it, but to be honest, I would rather live than die, so after saving you, I will try my best to find it when I am hunted down by the port mafia way to live'

As for why Chuya knows about the former leader and MIMIC, because he is a cadre and has read the records.

He also knew that Yizhi's information had been altered.

There is also about the death of Oda Tsukuru in the original book. I think he was redeemed. Before he died, he told Dazai, who was confused and looking for the meaning of living, to go to the rescuer to find meaning, and to kill people who wanted to die. André Gide, overall all three of them are redeemed.

Although he has been redeemed, both he and Dazai are really too miserable...

Of course, the above is my own understanding, I don’t know if Mr. Zhaowu has explained it personally, if so... Anyway, I was slapped in the face not once or twice hhh don’t panic, I will change it when the time comes.
