Night Rabbit Inquisitor

time, night.

The location is the coast of Kanagawa.

Characters, Chuya Nakahara, Osamu Dazai, Kamiyo.

Osamu Dazai stretched out his hand tremblingly, and before he would be thrown into the sea to destroy his body, he opened his mouth and asked Shen Yao: "Is your government still short of people?"

"...?" Shenyao slowly tilted his head, realizing Mr. Dazai's meaning, as if he wanted to join the Government of Time.

Ah this...

Not quite right?

Although the lack of people is quite lacking, but if people like Mr. Dazai join Shizheng, won't it really destroy all worlds like the fourth natural disaster?

She put down her hand to greet Mr. Dazai's head, and was thinking about how to politely reply to him, when she saw Nakaya lifted Mr. Dazai's collar and said with a dark face, "Aren't you armed?" Is the detective agency doing well?"

"Ah, this..." Mr. Dazai raised his head with a smile, and put on a happy expression: "In short, there are various reasons, and now I want to change jobs again."

"? What does wanting to change jobs have to do with the lack of people in Shenyao's organization? Let me tell you, bastard Dazai, I will never allow you to join her organization!"

At this time, Zhongyuan Zhong also showed much more excitement than Shenyao imagined.

Seeing that Mr. Dazai was shaken to the point of vomiting, Shenyao hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Okay, okay, it's not up to me to decide whether my organization can recruit people, and besides, the purpose of Mr. Dazai's trip , it shouldn't be just for jumping into the sea...?"

"Ah, as expected of Chuya's younger sister, she has a smarter mind than your brother."

"Noisy!"

"Indeed, my purpose is not just to jump into the sea, or to disturb your solitude—" Osamu Dazai's voice paused slightly: "An old acquaintance from the Supernatural Secret Service Division gave me information that parasites appeared in Yokohama."

The word "parasite" sounds a bit creepy.

"Although I don't know if the little girl's organization has obtained relevant information, I'd better tell you in advance." Osamu Dazai smiled and said, "After all, the little girl is the hero who maintains the safety of our world."

"...Please don't use such shameful adjectives." Shen Yao covered her face.

Seeing that this guy provided useful information, Zhongyuan Zhong also let go of his collar: "By the way, you come here alone, are you really not afraid that I will catch you back and replace you?"

"Huh? What are you talking about? Chuya?" Osamu Dazai blinked his big clear eyes: "If I was really kidnapped by you, do you think my companion would be willing to use a gentle and kind young member to go to the club?" Exchange me as a hostage?"

Nakahara Chuya: "...That's right, if I were them, I would pay for the kidnappers to destroy their corpses and never let you back."

"Yeah, my comrades in the Armed Detective Agency think the same way." Osamu Dazai said.

Shenyao: ...It turns out that Mr. Dazai is very aware that he is hated.

She still felt a little uncomfortable in her throat, so she couldn't hold back and coughed a few times, Nakahara quickly threw away Osamu Dazai, and came over to help her pat her back.

Osamu Dazai clapped his little hands, and said with a smile, "Then it's over? The me I am now is of no value to your Hong Kong gangster mission, and there's no need to arrest me back."

Chuya Nakahara stopped the movement of his hands, and stared at him: "Then what are you still doing here? Why don't you go back to the urban area of ​​Yokohama?"

"But it's very late now, and the tram has stopped operating long ago."

"I care about you?"

"Besides, I'm cold and hungry, and I'm hurting from being beaten by you. My clothes are all wet, and I don't have a place to live yet."

"...I care about you?? Just swim back for me!"

Osamu Dazai wiped away the tears, and added to himself: "Back then, Chuya and I had been partners for a long time. No matter who saw us, they would praise us. It was a perfect combination."

The corners of Zhongya Zhongya's eyes twitched: "If it wasn't for the leader's request, I would never agree to partner with you."

"However, although I am not good at physical skills, I have strong brain power. Although Chuya is short in brain power, physical skills are the ceiling of the organization."

Nakahara Chuya frowned: "Who is short on brain? You bastard mackerel!"

"All in all, four years ago, we were really a perfect pair of partners." Osamu Dazai smiled and said please: "So, this kind girl of Shenyao, please take your brother's former partner in for the night .”

Divine Ballad: "..."

Hey, who is this guy?What a big face, he was talking to himself from the beginning to the end, Chuya's current expression almost made him want to be thrown into the sea!

Mr. Odasaku, please hurry up and show your supernatural powers to accept this evildoer!

Shen Yao said righteously: "But I refuse."

"Eh--?"

"I think Mr. Dazai, it's not bad for you to sleep directly on the beach at night. It would be even better if you wake up the next day and find yourself washed into the sea."

Zhong Yuanzhong also couldn't help wanting to applaud her.

well said!

"Little girl, you are so cruel... qaq" Osamu Dazai wiped away tears that did not exist: "Do you brothers and sisters really have the heart to let me hang out here? Or else, lend me your car for a while , I just go back to Yokohama?"

"climb."

Nakahara also answered Dazai's request concisely with one word.

"Oh, it seems that I can only drag my tired body and spend the night on the seashore in this wet clothes." Osamu Dazai sighed exaggeratedly: "I was still thinking about talking to Miss Shenyao's teacher. Let's discuss it, and I can reduce your schoolwork burden a little bit..."

"Mr. Dazai, what do you think of the [-]-square-meter guest room on the second floor? When you open the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the sea view. Please stay there tonight." Shenyao changed his face in a second, rubbed his little hands and introduced.

"Hahaha, then it's better to obey than to be respectful."

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

Sure enough, it would be better for him to throw this lump of black mud into the sea.

—

Although he was forcibly rubbed against by a black mud spirit, the night was barely calm.

"Chuya, aren't you going on a mission?"

It was late at night, and the swordsmen also went to bed early to recharge their batteries for tomorrow's mission. When Osamu Dazai was driven into the room, in the open-air courtyard, Shenyao looked back at Chuya Nakahara who followed him all the way back, and asked curiously. road.

"...I'm afraid that bastard will do strange things to you."

Central Plains also turned his head, so said.

"However, Zhong also should be worried that I might punch him away with a backhand." Shen Yao laughed.

"……Um."

"So, it's not on a mission, but you want to come here to see me?" She blinked.

"...Why do you say it on purpose? I didn't come here on purpose. Didn't I just send you back in the afternoon?"

"Oh—it wasn't on purpose." Shenyao said meaningfully, and then rolled her eyes with a smile: "Chuya, I will firmly remember what you said this afternoon."

"..."

"Chuya, your face is red again."

"...I'd better go out on a mission."

Zhongyuan Zhong also raised his foot and wanted to leave, but Shenyao grabbed his waist from behind: "Okay, I know, I won't joke with you anymore."

"……Humph."

After holding back for a long time, Chuya let out a muffled sound from his nasal cavity, as if in response.

"However, I still hope that Zhongya can stay by my side and spend more time with me when he is not on a mission."

"..."

Hearing this gentle tone of voice that seemed to be coquettish, Zhongyuan Zhong also felt that the water droplets on his head were about to turn into steam.

Why can this girl always say such embarrassing things without hesitation!

"Is it okay? Chuya?"

"...Yes." After forcing himself to calm down, he blushed and replied with lowered brim of his hat.

"Really? Great!"

Shenyao rubbed his head against his back, and said with a smile: "By the way, Chuya and I are both soaked in order to catch Mr. Dazai. Do you want to take a shower and change clothes together?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also almost jumped up.

"Take a shower together? Impossible! What's going on in your head?"

"Huh? Is there a problem?" Shenyao blinked: "The bathroom is divided into two bathrooms for men and women, so I said to take a bath together. Is there a problem?"

"...!"

Ruined!

He, he misunderstood!

"Oh?" Shen Yao leaned in front of him, eyes crooked: "Could it be that Zhong also thought of something else——"

"No! How is it possible?" Zhong Yuanzhong also covered his red face that was about to explode, avoiding Shenyao's sight, and walked quickly to the back room.

Shenyao smiled, and said behind Chuya: "Chuya, you can find the clean bathrobe in the bathroom locker!"

No sound.

Um, is it because the joke just went too far?This time, he didn't respond to her for a long time.

But... Nakaya's reaction just now...

It's so cute.

She felt that she could transform from a little white rabbit into a big wolf at any time.

Shen Yao patted her face, controlled her expression, and then walked to the bathroom next to her.

—

After soaking himself completely in the warm water of the bath, Nakahara Nakaya let out a sigh of relief.

But once relaxed, it's easy to get cranky.

"Really..."

He took a deep breath and rubbed his temples vigorously.

It is undeniable that when he heard the words "take a bath together", some strange thoughts did flash in his mind.

Even if these thoughts are cleared out of the brain in time, the guilt in my heart is still very deep.

Is he a jerk?

Even if aliens and people on earth have different age concepts, Shenyao is... how old is she.

Holding his breath, he buried himself in the bathtub, and after about 2 minutes of freezing, he forced himself to calm down.

Suddenly, he heard a "dong dong" knock on the wall of the cubicle.

"...What's wrong?"

"Chuya, the shampoo in the bathroom is gone, can you throw it to me when you're done?"

"Okay, you wait."

Zhong Yuanzhong also raised his head and saw that there was still a big gap in the wall of the compartment.

... Isn't that completely without sound insulation?What if some pervert climbs up to peep?

...Forget it, there should be no outsiders living in this house.

He stood up frowning, looked around, found an extra bottle of shampoo, and used his supernatural power to make it float to the opposite bathroom.

"Thank you, Chuya."

After realizing that the bottle of shampoo was being held by Shenyao, Zhongyuan Zhong also thought that she might be in the bath now, his face blushed suddenly, and he withdrew his supernatural power in time: "It's okay."

"Zhongye."

"Ok?"

"What type of girl do you like?"

"..."

What is the problem?

Is it because of the promise I made in the afternoon?

He sighed softly, trying not to make his answer too straightforward: "The gentle and strong type."

There was a moment of silence on the other end.

"What about your figure?"

"……what?"

"Chuya, do you like a big sister who is more plump and bulging, or—"

"Hiss, don't ask these weird questions! If you keep asking like this, I won't talk to you!" He simply stepped out of the bath to wash his body.

"...Well." The voice on the other side seemed a little aggrieved: "But before, Mr. Yinshi said that men would like big sisters with protruding fronts and backs."

"Who is that Mr. Yinshi? You must not associate with him in the future, and you must not listen to his nonsense." Zhong Yuanzhong also said with a dark face.

Fortunately, after this, the girl on the opposite side finally calmed down and spouted wild words without moving.

Except for the sound of running water, the bathroom seemed very quiet.

The contrast between the quiet before and after made Zhong feel a little uncomfortable.

It was a rare opportunity for them to chat without being alone without seeing each other, and it was no wonder that the girl would talk about everything she could think of.

Otherwise, talk to her about other things.

For example, her past or something.

"God rumor."

This time, Zhongyuan Zhong also took the initiative to speak.

"Ok?"

"What kind of place is your original planet?"

"My original planet..." Shenyao thought about it carefully: "Brother Zhongye, do you still remember Leibo Street?"

"... Ah, I remember."

"Yeah, just remember, let me briefly describe it. The residents of our Luoyang are ten times more livestock than the residents of Leibo Street, and the folk customs are as simple as Gotham City."

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

Forgive him, I can't imagine what kind of a guy who is ten times more beastly than the residents of Leibo Street is.

"Anyone who is abandoned by the original planet, the maggots at the bottom of society, will stay in Luoyang." Shen Yao sighed: "However, after our Yetu tribe was forced to stay away from the home planet, the place where maggots gathered On the contrary, Yang is a relatively safe place to live for a long time.”

"……Why do you say that?"

"Because, in the universe, basically all the planets will be hostile to Yetu, and they will only think of expelling Yetu from the country, or killing them at all costs, so that there will be no future troubles."

Zhong Yuan was also silent for a while, and murmured: "Why do you use such a cruel method?"

"Because we were born as night rabbits, the night rabbits who belong to the strongest fighting race in the universe." Shenyao pretended to be relaxed and smiled: "Our race, except for killers and mercenaries, is a group of desperadoes. Silent-killing tantrums predominate, and it’s no wonder other guys stereotype us, or fear and loathe us.”

"...But, you are not such a night rabbit." Zhongyuan Zhong also said softly: "You are more gentle than any woman I have ever seen."

……gentle?

Shen Yao looked at her long hair floating on the water, without saying a word.

her?

But Chuya, you are wrong.

Although on the surface, it seemed that she was smiling gently at everyone all the time, but she understood that this was different.

Perhaps because of being the second son, her personality is different from Kagura who has a clear love and hate, and also different from Kamui who can kill with a smile at any time.

Only she knew that there was a terrifying monster hidden inside her body.

This smile, and the gentleness with which he treats others...

It is the emotion that I try to show in order not to let others discover the "monster" inside me.

"The truly gentle person is not me, but you." After Shen Yao sighed, she stood up, wrapped her body in a towel, and shouted to the next door: "Chuya, Then I'll go back to my room first."

"……it is good."

Although he didn't quite understand why Shenyao had to stop the topic abruptly, Zhongya Nakahara nodded.

But when he turned off the shower and looked up again, he suddenly found someone behind him from the reflection on the wall.

Without hesitation, Zhong Yuanzhong picked up the tub and threw it at the opponent.

Osamu Dazai ducked down to avoid the blow, but because of too much force, Duang knocked the back of his head to the ground.

"Since when did you start hiding there and eavesdropping?" Nakahara asked with a dark face.

Luckily he was still wearing a towel.

"Heavenly conscience, I just came here!" Osamu Dazai rubbed his head and stood up, his tone aggrieved: "No way? It's just a bath after falling into the sea, Chuya, do you have any objections to me?"

Zhongyuan Zhong also looked at the opponent suspiciously.

If it wasn't because he was Osamu Dazai, he might really be fooled by this guy.

He clicked his tongue impatiently, got up and planned to change into his bathrobe.

"What's wrong? Did you brothers and sisters quarrel?"

"...not brother and sister, and there is no quarrel." Nakahara Nakaya walked halfway, and suddenly turned around and seriously refuted Osamu Dazai's words.

Osamu Dazai tilted his head, as if he didn't understand what he was talking about.

"Do you believe that I will capture the organization for you now?" Zhong Yuan frowned: "Don't forget your current traitor status, bastard Dazai."

"Oh, Chuya, don't be so angry." Osamu Dazai smiled and rubbed his hands: "Maybe I can help you resolve conflicts?"

"...Forget it, every time you get involved, it's bound to be a bad thing."

"You can't say that, didn't we work together to complete a lot of tasks before?"

"Do you mean the time when the enemy blew up my car, or the time when I was left alone and sparred with the whole organization to buy you time?"

Osamu Dazai: "...Chuya, you have a pretty good memory."

Zhong Yuanzhong was also afraid that if he continued to chat for a few more words, he would be so angry that he would be beaten in the bathtub, and he didn't even want to find out what the hell he was up to, so he left without looking back.

Standing in the bathroom, Osamu Dazai didn't seem to intend to take off his clothes, but took out his mobile phone to reply to someone on the opposite side.

[The store manager, my ex-colleague is too innocent, I can't be an assist at all. 】

[FROM Jianghua: Do you know about the out-of-print complete set of signed novels by Oda Zuo? 】

【Uh... this...】

[FROM Jiang Hua: Do you want to join his internal support group? 】

[Guaranteed to complete the task!Give me a few more days! 】

—

No one knows exactly what kind of PY transaction Osamu Dazai made. When Nakahara walked out of the bathroom wiping his half-dry hair, he saw a note on the milk cup on the table, drew a rough map, and described it to him. How to get to the room.

It is the handwriting of Shenyao.

Shen Yao, she must have gone back to her room to sleep?

In the middle of the chat just now, she suddenly disappeared, which made Zhong Ye a little depressed.

After all... About her past, he is actually still in a state of half-knowledge.

Zhong also picked up the cup and drank it down, then turned his head and went to his room.

Strangely, after pushing open the door, his eyelids gradually became heavy, and he fell into a deep sleep almost the moment his head touched the pillow.

When I opened my eyes again, the scene around me had completely changed.

The gray and black city, the collapsed and illegal buildings, the sky covered with dark clouds, and the continuous heavy rain.

here is……

Dreamland?

Zhongyuan Zhong also tentatively raised his hand, and actually felt the clamminess of the cold rain hitting his body.

If this is a dream, this feeling is too real.

Is it the enemy's ability?

He tentatively brewed for a while, and found that his supernatural ability was still there, so he was slightly relieved.

The only thing that was not quite right was that the clothes on his body were not his previous clothes, but the blue bathrobes from the bathing place.

...want to look around?

"Pathogens! Pathogens!"

"The daughter of a pathogen is also a pathogen!"

The ear-piercing laughter suddenly entered his ears, and Nakahara Chuya subconsciously turned around and walked towards the source of the sound.

The noisy ones were a few "kids" whose looks were indescribable.

Maybe instead of calling them little kids, they should be called "little monsters."

A lizardman, a pig-headed man, and even a kid with random length and irregular potato-like head.

Nakahara Chuya: ...his dream is a bit too cyberpunk.

This group of little ghosts, who looked like a group of monsters, were laughing and laughing, and they didn't know who surrounded them and let out sharp laughter.

"My mother is not a pathogen!"

A soft voice shouted at them angrily.

"It's so noisy, she is a pathogenic bacteria, right? She usually looks sick and about to die."

"You Yetu are all cosmic viruses, you should get out of here! Get out of this planet!"

"Xun is dead, hey, is this guy really Yetu?"

...Night Rabbit?

Could it be that this is related to the day he talked with Shenyao, thinking about it every day and dreaming at night?

Zhong Yuan Zhong also stepped forward subconsciously, and shouted in a more emphatic tone: "Hello."

Even if it was only in the dream, what these little bastards said was too much.

"what?"

The little monsters turned their heads one by one, and after seeing Nakahara Chuya, their expressions became vigilant.

The lizard imp asked, "Are you Night Rabbit?"

Zhong Yuanzhong was also taken aback: "I am not."

Their expressions immediately became dismissive.

The pig-headed kid pouted: "Then why are you meddling in your own business here? Little dwarf, why don't you get out of here?"

Nakahara Chuya: "...?"

He pointed at himself with a dark face, and repeated: "Short?"

"What? Are you not convinced? Calling you a little dwarf will call you, do you still dare to object? Let me tell you, my father is the boss of this block—"

dong dong dong.

Three uniform bulges appeared on the heads of the three little monsters.

Fortunately, this was in a dream, he could beat the child without any psychological burden.

The Central Plains also want to.

The pig-headed kid held his mouth shut for a long time, tears welling in his eyes: "You, you hit me?!"

"If I hit you, I'll hit you. Do you still have to pick a day?" Zhong Yuanzhong also grinned: "Believe it or not, I will continue to beat you?"

The little monsters seemed to be scared to cry by his smile, and ran away one by one.

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

Although he beat up the nasty brat in the dream, he didn't feel any sense of accomplishment at all.

He sighed, and subconsciously turned around, but was stunned on the spot.

A pair of cobalt blue eyes, filled with tears, looked at him cautiously.

The pitiful little girl curled up into a ball, like a little rabbit, the dull fur on her head swayed with her movements.

This is really... too cute.

The little Yetu vigorously blinked away the teardrops from the corners of his eyes, rubbed his red eyes, looked at him tentatively and shouted:

"Uncle... Uncle?"
