[Comprehensive] I, the king of power, worked as a white worker in Yokohama

"—I'm here to pick you up, MyQueen."

...What kind of feeling is this?

...when seeing this person, when hearing this sentence, when...freedom is at your fingertips, close at hand.

Zhizi has forgotten the last time when she couldn't hold back the urge to cry, but now she can feel her eye sockets begin to moisten.

——As long as you run over and meet Osamu Dazai, the power on her body will be released, and this room will no longer be able to trap her.

Thinking of this in his heart, Zhizimiao who was standing on the bed kicked his limbs, jumped off from above, and ran towards the young man at the door.

When he was still one meter away from Dazai, Zhizimenow used his hind legs hard, and leaped into his open arms.

The pads of the cat's paw touched the collar of the shirt, and the white light activated by "No Place in the World" instantly enveloped a person and a cat.

When the light dissipated, the branch had recovered its human body.

Her arms were tightly wrapped around Dazai's neck, and her face was buried in Dazai's chest, as if grasping something lost and found.

"...The feeling of being free is—so good!"

Zhizi sighed deeply in his heart.The stagnation, unwillingness, and aggrieved feelings of being unable to resist in the past few days all dissipated in this silent exclamation.

However, she soon realized that something was wrong——

When I became a cat, I didn't feel anything, but now I feel chilly all over my body.Especially those hands covering her waist and back, without the barrier of the cloth, the warmth of the skin-to-skin contact was transmitted directly.

Zhizi: ...

She now seems... as if she is completely naked, without any clothes? ? ?

Zhizi froze, her brain shut down for a second, and then she reacted immediately.

"boom--"

There was a heavy muffled sound, Dazai was caught off guard and was pushed to the ground forcefully, his back hit the floor heavily.

When he stood up from the ground rubbing his slightly aching shoulders, the girl who was still hugging him to death had disappeared from his arms.

He glanced at the branch that had retracted behind the bed curtain, and his eyes fell back to the palm that was just attached to the waist of the branch just now, and it seemed that there was still a soft and slippery touch on it.

Closing his eyes, Dazai let out a small sigh of regret.

"...Did you sigh just now?!"

Zhizi suddenly poked her head out from the bed curtain, looking dangerously at Dazai.

As long as the young man nodded, even if she was wrapped in a quilt, she would immediately send a flying kick warning.

"...How could it be? I just thought about working so hard to save people, but I was pushed down to the ground by Zhizi heavily. I feel a little wronged."

With a strong desire to survive, Dazai began to open his eyes and talk nonsense.

Then, before Zhizi could judge how credible his words were, Dazai took off the sand-colored windbreaker he was wearing, and passed it under the bed curtain.

"Zhizi, let's get dressed first, Odasaku and the others are still waiting for us below."

Zhizi took the windbreaker and put it on very quickly.

She buttoned up all the buttons of the windbreaker, and fastened the decorative belt tightly, but even so, a large area of ​​fair skin was inevitably exposed at the neckline.

Of course, this is not the most embarrassing for her.

After getting off the bed, she felt a feeling of air leaking from her legs. When she looked down, she realized that it was because the windbreaker had no buttons at the hem, so as long as she walked faster or walked a little longer, she would be in danger of being exposed.

Zhizi immediately retracted to the bed again, not knowing what to do for a short time.

"—I'll take you down."

Dazai's voice suddenly rang above his head.

Zhizi raised her head when she heard the sound, but before she could react, someone grabbed her shoulders with one hand and the bend of her legs with the other, and hugged her horizontally.

The sudden sense of suspension made her instinctively reach out and grab the other's shoulder.

After realizing what was going on, Zhizi couldn't help but move his body, a little awkwardly and at a loss, and said, "This...isn't that good?"

"Is Zhizi worried that I won't be able to hold it? It doesn't matter. Although Zhizi is a little heavy, I can barely hold it. If I can't hold it anymore, I will let go in time. "

Zhizi fell silent, and the little girlish heart that sprouted in her heart disappeared in an instant.

She quickly changed into a look of indifference, and replied in a flat voice: "... If you really dare to throw me out, before that, I will definitely strangle you to death."

As she spoke, she also symbolically tightened the arms around Dazai's neck.

"... Pain... Pain... Pain... Zhizi let go... I'm going to lose my breath!"

"...Then send me to my destination properly, no tricks are allowed."

"...Yes, yes, as I command, my Majesty the Queen."

Just like that, Zhizi was wrapped in Dazai's windbreaker, and was carried all the way out of the room by Dazai, and walked down the imperial pillar tower.

When the two used the power of the king in Zhizi to crush all the way to the No.15 floor, what they saw was Oda and Tanizaki who were still fighting the tug-of-war with the Golden Clan.

Raising his hand deftly to clear all the people blocking the way, Zhizi looked at Oda and Tanizaki, and after Dazai approached with her in his arms, he said, "Thank you for coming to save me."

However, what responded to Zhiko was the stunned expressions of both Oda and Tanizaki.

Tanizaki's eyes quickly skipped over the faintly visible chest skin under Zhizi's windbreaker, as well as the brightly exposed forearms and calves, and he looked away embarrassedly as an innocent boy.

As for what he imagined that caused both ears to burst into red all of a sudden, it is unknown.

But unlike Tanizaki, there was no other emotion in Oda's eyes except worry, and he asked, "You look like that... What happened?"

"Don't worry, Odasaku," Dazai adjusted the position of his hands, and then explained in a relaxed tone for Zhizi, "Edae just changed from a cat to a human and has no clothes to wear, so I carried her down. It's nothing There is something wrong with my body and I can’t walk.”

"...Well, I will probably need me to carry her all the way home soon... I feel so tired just thinking about it, in case I can't hold her in the middle—"

"—Do you dare to throw me out for a try?!"

"...Maybe we can take turns?"

The voices of Zhizi and Oda sounded at the same time.

Oda was just talking about the matter, but after receiving the eyes of two friends, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and added the second half of the sentence in a strange way.

"—However, I don't think you need help with your ability to kill you."

Dazai withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes and sighed, "Odasaku, you think highly of me..."

Zhizi also retracted his gaze, and sneered, "Don't worry about it! I've been using Wang Zhili to help you reduce your weight, so why do you have anything to complain about?"

Oda rubbed his chin, looked at the two friends thoughtfully, and then he didn't know what he figured out, he turned and left first, leading the way back to Yokohama.

As for Tanizaki, he chose to follow Oda's footsteps and be a quiet and beautiful boy.

……

By the time the four returned to Yokohama, it was already late at night.

Considering that Tanizaki is still underage, and the night in Yokohama has always been unsafe, Oda offered to send him home.

So, the four of them separated at the fork in the road.

Not long into spring in March, the wind at night is still a little bit chilly.

Zhizi didn't feel the cold because it was indoors at the Yuzhu Tower.

Now that the surroundings have become quiet, with the occasional night breeze blowing, she feels that there is almost no difference between wearing only a windbreaker and not wearing any clothes.Especially the exposed calves and arms, she couldn't help crossing her legs and curling up her toes in the cold.

"Is the branch very cold? Uh... I can't think of any other way to keep warm for a while. Should I put my hand into my collar? It should be a little warmer."

"No. Just go faster."

Zhizi decisively rejected Dazai's "kindness".

She shrunk her body a little, and involuntarily moved closer to the source of warmth that was hugging her, and then asked about their visit to the Imperial Pillar Tower today: "You guys... When did you find out that something was wrong? Didn't you tell me that day to let you Don't come looking for me?"

"Huh? Are you talking about that counterfeit? I don't listen to anyone else except Zhizi."

Branches lowered their eyes.

She knew it, the man always did.He spoke words that touched people's hearts in a fluffy tone, and soon he was able to say words in a tone that made people want to kill the person in front of him.

Therefore, Zhizi replied with a calm face and a calm heart: "...I have never heard what I said. When I caught a cold a few months ago, didn't I let you go about your own affairs? You broke the door again and came in." Forget it, if you turn around and refuse to admit it, it's very possible, Dazai-kun."

"Oh, was it discovered so quickly? I was thinking of finding a good time in the future to let you 'accidentally' find out, and then Zhizi will be so moved that he will cry, so if I ask you to borrow money, you will definitely not I agree without hesitation..."

Dazai's tone was brisk, without the slightest bit of bewilderment and discomfort from being exposed.

Anyway, Zhizi is not surprised anymore, and doesn't plan to play Tai Chi with him.

"—Thank you no matter what, Dazai-kun. It was before, and it is now."

After finishing speaking, Zhizi didn't wait for Dazai's response, and continued to ask: "Actually, I still have a few doubts—how did you pass the interception of "Ashikiin" and go up to the top of the Imperial Pillar Tower?And how did you discover the hidden room where I was locked and unlock the door? "

Judging from the previous situation in the Yuzhu Tower, it is not difficult to deduce that Dazai and Oda are definitely not walking the same path.Otherwise, Oda and Tanizaki are still struggling on the fifteenth floor, while Dazai has already reached the top floor and succeeded in saving people.

It's just that Zhizi couldn't figure out whether Dazai took some special passage or used some special method.

"...This is very simple."

Zhizi felt that the hand holding her seemed to tighten a little bit, and then she heard Dazai's casual but detailed explanation: "The first question, I took the passage "only cats can walk", so I didn't encounter any problems. Any obstruction will soon reach the top of the Imperial Pillar Pagoda. "

"...why can I walk the passage "only cats can walk"?Because the channel is not limited by body size, but the hidden trigger mechanism can only be found by the height of a cat.It just so happened that the exit is located in the lounge. When I came to the Pillar Tower with Zhizi a few times ago, I was arranged to wait for you in the lounge. I accidentally found this passage when I had nothing to do. "

"...The second question——"

Hearing his intentionally prolonging the tone, Zhizi couldn't help but looked up curiously.

At this time, Dazai also lowered his head, leaning close to Zhizi's ear.

"—No matter where Zhizi is locked, I can find you. There is no lock in this world that I cannot open."

The author has something to say: Zhi: At first I thought we were here as members of the clan to save the king, but then I realized that I should be under the car.

Gu: Bring me one under the car.
