[Bungo Stray Dogs] Animal Three Musketeers

The wounded area of ​​the 365th Infantry Army Base of the National Defense Forces——

Sen Ou walked outside and stared at the ring on the blonde woman's finger, surprised, "Are you married during this time?"

Natsume Mizusui nodded, "Yes, I didn't expect that after talking to you about being single a few months ago, I got married not long after."

"It's a pity. I originally planned to pursue you when you came back this time?"

"Stop joking, Dr. Sen, do you think you are suitable for a relationship?"

"I see." Mori Ogai smiled casually, "It's a very smart choice. I thought you would choose to continue your part-time job in the clinic because of Hatta, but it's a pity that you gave up."

"...Your pity sounds really creepy, so where are we going now?"

"My office, I have something for you."

Natsume Mizusui raised her brows, "A gift to bless the wedding? You don't know how to prepare it?"

"Who knows." Mori Ogai opened the door where the patient was placed, and asked her to go in sideways, reminding her kindly, "Don't be scared."

Natsume Mizusui stayed for a while, then walked in calmly, found two chairs in front of Mori Ogai's desk and sat down, pressing the boy's hair with his hands to calm him as much as possible.

The child should have been waiting at the door just now.

Natsume Mizusui felt a little regretful.

Most of the soldiers who were sent were seriously ill and had to withdraw from the battlefield. The attacks of various hot weapons and the despicable viruses released made many soldiers who had endured the pain unable to help crying.

Natsume Mizusui had never seen this kind of scene, what she saw most were corpses all over the mountains and plains.

If someone asks her which of these two scenes is more painful, she can only say that they are evenly matched.

The life of the dead is over, but it brings sorrow to the living.

The living barely survived in the world, but were forced to continue a painful life with no end in sight.

She thought for a while that Mori Ogai, who said he would give her something but ran to somewhere and left her here, felt cheated.

Mori Ogai walked into the next room after returning from dealing with matters.

He didn't know her supernatural ability, so he didn't know that she could hear everything clearly.

It is a sign of cowardice that a soldier wants to die.

But despite the appearance of soldiers, they are still dignified and upright people in the world.

Everyone has a limit, and once this limit is broken, seeking death is nothing more than a normal thing.

Mori Ogai deprived people of their rights, and told the other party that what he did was unquestionably correct.

Thought is a kind of poison that goes deep into the bone marrow and can spread. It will not affect you at the beginning, but it will subtly change everyone who hears it.

Natsume Shuishui hugged him again, and quietly led the boy away.

"...Don't you want what he gave you?"

Natsume Shuishui glanced lightly at the base that was drifting away behind him, and said lightly, "No need."

"What he can find out, I can find out too."

"We must know that animals are more honest and sincere than humans, and they are more trustworthy."

Mori Ogai said that they are the same kind of people, sinister and cunning, colder than wolves running on the ground.

Natsume Shuishui felt that they were two completely opposite types of people. Although they were both wolves, she was not at all willing to abandon the motherhood that was interdependent with personality.

Even later, when she heard Ogai Mori tell her about Osamu Dazai who was similar to him, she slowly threw out a rebuttal.

"Hearts are the same."

"But he made a completely different choice than you."

"He's trying to climb the ladder and grow."

Stepping into her yard to put Xiaohei who had been brought out from the curry shop just now, Natsume Mizusui suddenly remembered that there was no change of clothes for the boy.

She hurriedly opened the door and led the boy to put him on the sofa again. Sensing that Natsume Soseki hadn't returned home, she didn't care much. She squatted down again and looked at the boy who hadn't adapted to the new environment. "You can put on my husband's shirt first after taking a shower." Is it? I don’t have children’s clothes at home.”

"...you haven't asked my name yet."

Natsume Mizumi...

Pupil quake again.

She actually forgot the name again? !

Was it again last time, and now? !

She shrank her neck in embarrassment, scratched her hair a few times and stretched out her hand to the boy, saying briskly, "I'm Natsume Mizusui, and I'm currently working as an assistant to a certain Mr. Unreliable."

The boy put his hand in carefully, and that beautiful white hand wrapped his fingers, then the palm, and finally the wrist that was so warm that he couldn't tell how cold it was.

"I am... Sakunosuke Oda." Oda's eyes shone with a faint light that could hardly be caught, "a homeless person without a job."

"It's ok--"

Natsume Mizusui elongated the sound of the character "系", stood up with a smile on his face, looked for a substitute for the child's clothes, put an adult shirt in Oda's hands, and then took the bag and put on his shoes and planned to go out, "I'll go first Buy you some clothes, and then help you find a good job?"

Xiao Oda stared blankly at the woman who could trust 100% push the door out. Xiao Hei at the door cheerfully shouted a few times to call for her to come back early. After a long period of silence, he slowly lowered his head and held her hand. Picking up the clothes that were about to be changed in his arms, he buried his head in them, and then showed a reassuring smile.

It smells like washing powder.

"Ah, ah..."

Oda turned his head and saw the baby on the sofa smiling at him, waving his two fleshy little hands, just like the usual children begging for hugs and sleep from adults or close people.

He glanced at the dirty clothes on his body, blushed, said sorry in a low voice, and then quickly ran to the bathroom where he didn't know where to take a shower immediately.

On the other side, Natsume Soseki, who was walking on the street, felt the wind under his feet, thinking solemnly how to explain Zai Zai's family background to his wife, or should be said, the identity of his parents.

He walked faster and slower for a while, and his indecision was like a pendulum swinging.

In the end, he gave up thinking about it alone, and discussing it with people close to him would eventually lead to an acceptable result.After all, it's about both parties, and the main victim.

Home was getting closer and closer, Natsume Soseki thought about the cauliflower, shrimps, mushrooms and other washed ingredients that Natsume Mizusui had prepared before leaving, couldn't help but walked quickly with a smile on his lips.

then.

His smile froze when he saw a strange child in his clothes who was hugging and coaxing after entering the door.

...When did their family add such a child?

Or.

He entered the wrong door? ? ?

A few dogs barking suddenly came from behind, Natsume Soseki subconsciously thought it was Natsume Mizusui and immediately turned around to ask the children inside what was going on, but saw a black dog in the yard barking at him.

Natsume Soseki: ...

He just went out, and his wife also went out.

How could she bring back so many empathetic people and animals while he could only bring bad news?
