disqualified hero

The sharp knife brushed Shuji Tsushima's cheek. If he hadn't dodged fast enough, there would at least be bloodstains on his face. He said "It's dangerous, it's dangerous", and his eyes were serious.

As previously estimated, compared with ordinary people, Takahara Puli's reaction speed and strength are several times stronger, otherwise she would not be able to kill three members of the robot club at the same time. Shuji Tsushima doubted whether her skills From different abilities.

He took a step back, tapped his toes on the ground, and turned an elegant circle around it, avoiding the opponent's direct hit, and at the same time stretched out his little finger to hook the hem of Gaoyuan Puli's clothes. It is impossible for Gaoyuan not to realize his small movements , her learning ability is not weak, after several kills in a short period of time, she has obviously become a veteran, Shuji Tsushima's position in contact with her is tricky enough, it is impossible to stab directly with the tip of the knife, so she changed her posture and directly changed her elbow .

He took this trick abruptly, in order to prove whether her power came from supernatural powers.

"Bang, bang, bang."

When the back hits the table and chair hard, it will leave a large area of ​​bruises. A table is really unable to resist the impact from the outside world. The legs of the table rub against the floor tiles, making harsh noises. Back, back, back, the table People are sliding, and finally the tables are stacked together. I don’t know which table has a problem and falls to the ground, so the remaining tables and chairs are like dominoes, one after another fall down.

Shuji Tsushima simply fell into the ruins.

[Her strength is not a supernatural ability. ]

He thought for a few tenths of a second, then jumped up, dodging the next move: "Hey, Gao Yuan, is your strength innate? It's amazing."

Gao Yuan Puli is not a very smart person, but compared with ordinary people, her IQ is not bad, so at this moment her mouth is tightly closed and she will never leak her voice.

[She probably thought I recorded the audio. ] Shuji Tsushima thought, [But it's true, I just need to turn on the recording function, even if I don't think she is so easy to deal with, if it is, I'm happy to see it. ]

The silent mime is really boring. After confirming that her overbearing power comes from himself, Xiu Zhi has no intention of spending any more time with her. He simply opened the door and escaped from the classroom, running wildly in the corridor.

And Gao Yuanpuli behind her, as if she was not worried about being discovered by the guards, chased after her with a knife.

[Did you still dare to hold a knife on this road, are you not worried about being photographed by surveillance cameras?No, it's not so much that I don't worry about being photographed, it should be said that I have no fear. ]

[It is certain that even if it is photographed, it will not appear in the video. ]

He looked up at the camera lens hanging on the side of the ceiling. The glass surface reflected cold light. For some reason, Shuji Tsushima felt that the space around it was distorted for a moment, as if a tiny black hole appeared in the void, turning time Ah, space, it’s all sucked in.

Running, running, he went back along the secret passage into the teaching building, crossed the deserted playground, and ran to the auditorium unhurriedly. The teacher guarding the door looked at Shuji Tsushima very dissatisfied and said: "You It takes too long to go to the bathroom."

Shuji Tsushima said briskly: "I can't help it, I want to go out and get some air."

The teacher said displeasedly: "Breath, go to the toilet?"

Shuji Tsushima just smiled and refused to talk much.

"Go in." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Gaoyuan Puli who walked into the gate of the teaching building with small steps like a lady. The feminine facial lines became softer under the light, and her facial contours were almost invisible. Cross your hands in front of the skirt, bow your head to the teacher and say: "I'm sorry to trouble you, I'm back, teacher."

In principle, no students are allowed to enter or leave the auditorium at present, at most they just go to the toilet.

The teacher calmed down and said, "Come in." After finishing speaking, he gave Shuji Tsushima a hard look. The naughty male student and the worry-free female student were still in the same class.

"Let's go back together, Gaoyuan classmate." The prey-like man who was hunted down by the hunter just now squinted his eyes. His eyes were too tender and his smile was too cute. Even Gaoyuan Puli looked perfect, so she I really have heart palpitations, and I regard Donghai's new friends as a thorn in my side, a thorn in my flesh, and I can't wait to get rid of it quickly.

"You see, we are in the same class, and we are in the same row, so why not go back together."

Plateau Puli: "Oh? Oh."

[Oh no. ]

[It went wrong, it went wrong. ]

[The first sound is not sweet enough, not cute enough, not natural enough, I'm going to expose it, I'm sorry, mom, please forgive me, I will definitely not cause trouble to anyone, please don't leave me]

In just over ten minutes, Takahara Puri experienced a lot. The truth was exposed, and she tried to kill the witness but let him escape. "The disguise is more perfect and calmer, the mask is more secure, and now he even smiles at me, and stretches out his hand, inviting us to leave together as if flirting.

point is triggered.

She suddenly collapsed.

A sense of fear overwhelmed her, and Puri Gaoyuan couldn't tell what she was afraid of. Her mind was only filled with fragmented images and sounds: the sound of quarreling, the sound of glass breaking, the sound of doors opening and closing, and the sound of her mother's scolding. Her red-eyed father, the broken wine bottle, her drunken mother, her parents' cold, seemingly emotionless eyes, her classmates whispering, herself in the mirror, and the folder on the teacher's computer screen , the boy's video, Dong Hai's eyes.

"I went out to buy a pack of cigarettes, Puri." Father never came back.

"You must be obedient, obedient, or mother will not want you."

"Can you help me on duty, Mr. Gao Yuan?"

"Oh, of course."

"Gao Yuan, she's so miserable, I'm scared just by looking at her, won't she reject people, alas, if that's the case, I'll ask her to help me correct my homework next time."

Breathe.

[Gurg gurg gurg gurg. ]

Breathe.

Her head was pressed into the bathtub filled with water, and one hand and another tightly pressed the back of her head to prevent her from coming out. She kept waving her hands and stomping her feet on the ground, hoping to use her strength to get out of the water. Come out, you can escape, you can live.

[Mom, mom, mom]

[Please, who can save me. ]

"Student from the plateau, classmate from the plateau."

"!"

Ho!

She opened her eyes suddenly, and found that she was lying flat on the ground. It was not cold under her body. The teacher put her coat on the floor to insulate the coolness slightly. As for her long hair, it was scattered and spread out like flowers , the "Osamu Dazai" who he hated deeply squatted beside him, looked at himself with a smile, and mocked with a more perfect smile than her: "That's great, Classmate Gao Yuan, you're fine."

"I, I just now." She heard herself asking, her voice weak.

The teacher replied: "You were out of breath just now, student Gao Yuan." His voice was slightly serious, "Tell me the truth, have you seen Xiaoshi's photo? It is only because we know that this will happen that we prohibit the random dissemination of photos. , it will have a great negative impact on the students' body and mind..."

She didn't listen to the rest of the words, Puri Takahara just looked at Shuji Tsushima deeply.

"You fainted for 2 minutes, student Gao Yuan. Fortunately, the ventilation here is good and the treatment is timely, so there is nothing wrong." He scratched his cheek and said meaningfully, "The one just now was a stress reaction, right? Did you have any special experiences in the past, Gao Yuan, or was it just caused by nervousness?"

"I didn't expect Gao Yuan to be so fragile." His eyes were like bottomless holes, which could suck in all the mind and emotion of a person.

"Be careful, Gao Yuan, you are a fragile person, you can easily collapse."

……

"So, she suddenly broke down."

Oda Tsukuru was sitting on the chair in front of the desk, and the uninvited guest, Tsujima Shuji Kuto occupied the magpie's nest, lying carelessly on his bed, with his hands wide open, his legs sticking to the edge of the bed, and his feet weakly stomping on the ground. In general, it is a very comfortable posture.

He originally planned to call Shuji Tsushima right after he came back to tell him what he had found, but when he opened the door, he would be greeted with a big gift. Does the room need a key? ]

"Nane, listen to me, listen to Odasaku." Tsushima Shuji didn't give him a chance to speak first, he patted his hands on the mattress, as if he had found something interesting, and then his mouth popped The ground fell outwards, telling the whole confrontation with Gaoyuan Puli, including the opponent's decisiveness when he raised the knife and the final collapse.

Odasaku sighed and stood up. He opened the cabinet, took out the first-aid kit, and said to Shuji Tsushima, "In this case, take off your shirt first."

"Hey, Odasaku." Shuji Tsushima protested, "For a normal person, shouldn't you go back to Gao Gao's past and question her abnormal behavior before and after? Why do you need a medical kit?"

"Because you were knocked out, and your back was still leaning on the table. In this case, there must be a large bruise on your back," he said, "If you don't take medicine now, you will be very painful when you wake up tomorrow morning. I tried it before. The feeling of being bruised is really painful.”

"It's better to deal with it sooner."

Shuji Tsushima reluctantly sat up from the bed. He crossed his legs and turned his back to Odasaku. The young man's back is beautifully curved, but he is really a bit thin. Apart from his thin muscles, what stands out more is his bony skeleton and Pale skin, and swelling, some blue, some purple, Odasaku sighed and said: "You need to eat more, Tsushima."

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts—"

"If you think about it carefully, your food intake is much smaller than that of your peers. I can eat a pot of rice at your age, and I don't have the habit of drinking." He said, "If you only like crab meat, the nutrition is definitely not enough. And alcohol is not a good thing for young people, because if you drink too much, your hands will shake."

"Odasaku."

"what."

"Just like my mother."

[That's too...]

It was rare for Oda to feel helpless. He recalled his getting along with Shuji Tsushima and said: "If I really want to say it, I can't deny it. After all, many things I do are what my guardians do."

"Hey, you didn't complain. Now you are meaningless, Odasaku. In terms of age, you are quite young. Is it really good to surrender to life?"

"Because Tsushima won't stay in peace." He said, "In this case, I have to keep up with you for a while." He closed the medicine box and said, "The bandage is finished, I hope you don't let it go Traumatized a second time."

"Impossible, I was targeted by a perverted killer, and Gao Yuan is a strong woman who defies common sense. Her muscle density must be very high. Physical skills are actually only at the level of a trained person, but she has great strength and speed. Come on, positive words are really hard to deal with, and there are still her accomplices hidden in the school."

[Ah, by the way, I wanted to tell him about that. ]

"No, it shouldn't be said to be an accomplice. Gao Yuan himself is not sure that the other party will help her. If he is sure, he will recklessly kill in front of the auditorium. There should be no witnesses to her previous killings. Maybe it’s because I’m not sure whether I can fool the eyes of the witnesses, so I dare not act rashly.” Shuji Tsushima analyzed, “It’s really an interesting superpower, her assistant, in a sense, is the ability to subvert the world for a short time .”

"I have something to tell you." Oda Saku interrupted him, "The investigation has progressed."

……

[From [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the evening, it is painting time. ]

In the silent night, I stepped on the drums, the drums are not real, it is a melody, lingering in my ears all the time, sometimes it is the bell, sometimes it is the ticking of the second hand Ticks go forward, sometimes it's the sound of water hitting a flat surface in a drop timer.

I am troubled by the precise notion of time, but I also depend on it.

[Open the door, and the man I call the mentor is already waiting here. He is actually a casual person, but he has shown tolerance and tolerance for my eccentricities beyond ordinary people. Yes, who can tolerate it? Living like a robot, my grandfather only had a sense of time, but was loudly reprimanded by my father as a "monster". As for me, my grandfather couldn't stand it. When I was young, I forced many tutors away. They thought I was abnormal. ]

"You're here, Mr. Banzhai." Mr. Jing Fu always arrives in the classroom earlier than me. I thought for a while, the teaching building is closed now, it's too close to the scene of the incident, but I can come in, why can't he Come in?

[I will draw portraits of people in my heart. Mr. Ibuku's portraits have a slightly religious meaning, with half an angel and half a monster. ]

"Have you been inspired?" he asked me.

"you mean?"

"From Xiaoshi's photo."

"Ah, it can indeed be said to be a work of art, but the composition is very rough, and the connotation is not very clear. It is too far-fetched to say that it was inspired."

I know that my answer is very cold, but this is indeed my inner thoughts, Mr. Jingfu is not someone who will make a fuss about it, I look at his back, he is wearing a white shirt today, walking slowly to the window, outside the window is a good night .

The thick clouds dissipated at some point, and the moon showed its face. The teaching building was built on the highest point of the mountain, and the field of vision of the art classroom was wide enough, so we could see a lot, including the flashing lights of Yokohama at night.

I went to his side.

"Look outside." Teacher Jingfu said, "Look at the flashing neon lights, the flickering fire, the lighthouse, the LED screen, and the overpass. The bridge is inlaid with small orange lights. Seen from a distance, it is a colorful world surrounded by glittering lights.”

I actually don’t know what to say. Yokohama’s nights are the same as other cities. They are the same and different. Every night is the same as the previous day. It can even be said that there is no difference between him and any modern city. Every day is different. But, you never know where a new fire will blow up, and you never know when the light will go out.

Every city in the world is the same. Our cities have prosperous areas and poor areas, places with good law and order and places with bad law and order. Killers, prostitutes, mafia, guns, ammunition, dangerous abilities Being put on the bright side, I think Tokyo, which claims to be safe and secure, is no different from Kabul in Afghanistan.

Thinking of this, the mood became very bad.

"Does Banzhai have any ideas when looking at the night?" Teacher Jingfu said, "It will be a little enlightening."

[His successful interrogation has made my mood worse. In fact, since this afternoon, my sanity has been hanging on the edge of crumbling. How could such a big incident happen in our school? It seriously disrupted my life , the uncertainty of the future and the fear of daily imbalances have been hanging over me, and I am really unhappy. ]

"What do you mean?"

"Isn't your painting meant to draw the confrontation between justice and evil? Look at Yokohama. There are lights on the left and darkness on the right. There are only black lights and lights in the vicinity of the port area at night. Occasionally, there are fires. We know what it is. Someone died. , someone is dying, can you draw from reality, can you feel life passing by?"

"I don't think what you're saying makes much sense," I heard myself say. "It's true that they happen every day, but they're part of the day, and we just have to manage our lives and be thankful we weren't poor ghetto-born."

[Every city in the world is the same as Yokohama. There is no absolute safety in the world. ]

I looked outside again.

[Strange, is there too much "fire" today? ]

"Hmm." I heard Mr. Fukushi say, "You think so."

[He is really strange, always chatting with me about some inexplicable topics. ]

"Yes." I replied.

"Then Banzhai-kun, have you heard of the law of superhuman abilities?"

"?"

"That is to say, in theory, supernatural abilities are all kinds of strange and different, right? You will never know what kind of abilities a person with supernatural abilities possesses, but the latest experiments in the United States have proved that supernatural abilities are related to the shape of a person's soul."

"Look, isn't it strange? When people awaken, they even know the names of abilities. Many participants said that they heard the names in dreams, and they named them as a matter of course. Dreams are subconscious feedback. Many people Believe it, that is to say, the supernatural power itself is the feedback of the subconscious mind, what kind of person you are will have the kind of supernatural power."

[unclear meaning. ]

"To put it simply, it's the same as writing like a person and writing like a person."

My tone became quite impatient: "What's the matter?"

"No, it's nothing." Mr. Jingfu turned his head. When I saw his expression clearly, I felt fear from the bottom of my heart. He looked at me like never before. Simply put, he definitely didn't look at me alone. The eyes of the other person are probing, curious and coldly appreciating, as if looking at the goods. Have I been expelled from my human status in his heart?

"Did you not discover it, or did you not want to discover it?" He asked me, "I've been thinking about it since five years ago, what kind of person would have the powerful ability to change reality, or What kind of person only uses it as a daily routine to maintain peace, I guess its owner must be good enough, restrained enough, stupid enough, and self-deceiving enough.”

"Honestly, when I saw you, I was very disappointed, because you did not exceed my expectations at all."

I couldn't speak, I was shrouded in fear, the most frightening thing was that even now, Mr. Ibuku still had a halo in my mind, even though he took out a gun and pointed it at me.

The fire at the bottom of the mountain is still crackling, the fire is getting bigger and bigger, what happened, is the organization of Yokohama Port fighting with weapons or doing something else, are they trying to drag the city into the flames? , I heard that all the red-haired teenagers who wandered the streets the other day were killed, not only the people in the slums, but also the people in the rich areas.

What kind of world do I live in.

--boom.

……

"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom."

Kohara Puri was lying in bed, she couldn't sleep, she couldn't sleep since a long time ago, before she killed the first person.

There was a knock at the door, and she drew the knife from under the pillow.

Her roommate was picked up by her family. Because of what happened at the school, students can leave the school accompanied by their parents after obtaining an alibi. Some people left, but she was still in the school.

"Who is it?" She asked, then tiptoed to the door, clutching the handle of the knife tightly in her hand.

"It's me." Donghai said through the door.

"..."

"Can I go in first, Gaoyuan classmate." Donghai said, "Today is very chaotic, and the life teacher has also stepped up vigilance. Although I sneaked into the girls' floor by taking advantage of the loopholes, I don't know how long I can be safe. If possible, please Let me in first, or I will be taken away."

"Crack-"

The door opened a crack, and Puri Takahara in her pajamas showed a timid smile and said, "Please come in, Donghai-san."

That smile seemed like a girl in love, waiting for her beloved.

……

"Black tea, green tea, hot cocoa, coffee, what would Donghai students like?"

She still didn't put on her coat. It was too hot in summer. There was no air conditioner in the dormitory, but Gaoyuan Puli didn't turn it on. In her words, the sea breeze in summer was enough.

Her pajamas are pale pink, the fabric is opaque, only part of the fabric is wetted by her sweat, and the underwear shows her exquisite body curves.

What does she want to do, does she not know that there is something wrong with her dress?

Donghai sighed silently in his heart. To be honest, looking at the appearance of Gaoyuan Puli, he has no desires.

"Student Gaoyuan." He looked at the other person's busy back. The two-person dormitory was run by a careful girl like a warm home. She put all kinds of drink packages in the boxes in order, and put a small electric heater on the desk. Kettle, you can use it for hot water.

"Surrender yourself, Gao Yuan." He said

Plateau Puli's hands froze.

She also sighed, put the things back on the table, and when she turned around, she still had a lovely but haggard smile on her face.

"You know."

she said lightly.

"Yeah." Donghae replied.

"Did you see Xiaoshi's photo?"

"Yeah." Donghai paused and said, "I also saw the photos on the forum."

"……forum."

"It's the robot club."

"what."

"Teacher Jingfu introduced the forum to me. He said that there are some ways to protect yourself from school violence. If I am interested, I can check it out, so I opened it." He said, "How should I say it? The method is indeed a bit extreme, but there are also useful methods, and the conversation of the moderator is very funny, and some interesting things can expand the knowledge, so I developed the habit of visiting the forum frequently.”

"And then I saw the picture."

"..."

"When did Donghai learn that I did it?"

"Let's start by seeing the photos, because I can't be the one who did it, Mr. Ifuku wouldn't do this kind of thing, Mr. Gao Yuan has been sitting in the blind corner behind me, and I can feel your eyes." "... "I'm sorry, I have a hunch that you did it too."

"..." Gaoyuan Puli was silent for a while and said, "During junior high school, Donghai classmate told others that I was a hypocritical person. What is the reason?"

"You heard that." Donghai said, "Because Gao Yuan is in pain."

"?"

"It's when you smile at others, you are in pain, right, it seems that you don't complain at any time, and you smile at any time. What is such a person not hypocritical?" He said, "I thought at the time, so I said .”

"..." "Then why, Donghai classmate knew that I killed the person, but didn't say it?"

"Because I am also a hypocrite. Although I thought that after the incident was exposed, I would be taken away as a suspect, but after seeing the photos, I still saw my seniors and seniors walking around the campus, so I pretended that this incident did not happen. Just forget about it."

"Now?"

"Well, if Takahara-san doesn't turn himself in, Dazai-san will be the next target."

Donghai said: "Because I don't want Dazai-san to die, so I came to tell you these words, that's all."

The fire outside the window was blazing.
