King of 25 Cubs

Natasha's movements suddenly froze.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I really can't do it... I'm sorry..."

Natasha's trembling hands could no longer hold the thick book, and it fell to the ground with a "click".

She knelt down covering her face and sobbed softly.

I raised my eyebrows, retracted my stepped foot, and put the gun back into my pocket again.

I almost pulled the trigger just now.

"Yuko, are you alright?"

Dazai, who was keenly aware that something was wrong on my side, asked me on the phone.

"My friend has something sad, I'm comforting her, you can continue to do your work."

Saying "Sorry" to Dazai in my heart, I hung up the phone, walked up to Natasha, and looked at her condescendingly.

"Please accept my undeserved prayers, and save me from sudden death, and grant me repentance before the end."

I read out Natasha's previous prayer in the church in a flat tone, and commented in a neutral tone: "It seems that your God has heard the prayer, and you should thank you for your 'repentance', otherwise I can only go to you Shots were fired."

I don't know what that book is for, and I don't know what harm it will do to me. Naturally, at critical moments, I must first protect myself before considering whether to keep my hand.

"This book looks familiar."

I squatted down and carefully pinched the spine of the book with my fingers.

The cover looks familiar, and it was this book that Fyodor was flipping through on the hospital bed next to my stall.

I shook the book and said to Natasha in a leisurely manner: "When did Fyodor...Tao Kotaro give you this? What did he tell you?"

Natasha put down her hand, her eyes were red, and she said in a hoarse voice: "Just three nights ago, he went to the pharmacy to find me and said that there is a way to get my husband and daughter back to me, just need Hold this book close to you when I'm alone with you."

"Tsk, it is indeed something he will do."

I curled my lips and asked again: "What will happen if this book is buckled on me?"

"You will be sucked into the book and go through the stories of the characters in the book. Tuo Xiaotaro said that he would not hurt you, but just wanted to let you understand something... I don't know what's wrong with you, it's just me... I I really want them to come back."

Natasha spoke incoherently, and tears rolled down again: "I'm sorry... But he promised me that you will be fine, and you will come out of the book soon..."

I also knelt down and asked, "Then why did you stop at the end? Did you feel uneasy about your conscience?"

Natasha lowered her eyes, her tone was low and dull: "My husband is a kind and upright person. If he knows what I have done, he will... be angry."

She suddenly grabbed my sleeve and begged: "Maria, can you help me? I want my husband and daughter to come back. The child said that you will be fine if you enter the book—"

"What if I say something is wrong?"

Natasha opened her eyes wide.

"I know what is the way to get your husband and daughter back." I sneered and spread my hands: "Unfortunately, if he succeeds, I will become another person."

The method Fyodor said was nothing more than using the "book" to change the real world, but it is conceivable that if the "book" really got into his hands, he would definitely let Maria return.

"If my consciousness ceases to exist, I am no longer me, and that is no different to me than death."

I hit the nail on the head and said, "Natasha, are you going to use my sacrifice in exchange for the survival of your husband and daughter?"

Natasha was stunned for a long time, and finally burst into tears covering her face.

"I don't know...I don't know woo woo woo..."

I sighed: "I know you are not a bad person, you are just an ordinary person."

Too good to be firm, too bad to be incomplete, occasionally hovering on the verge of making a mistake, and shrinking back after finishing a step, these are the most ordinary people in the world.

When her crying gradually subsided, I continued to ask: "Did Fyodor tell you something else?"

I figured that he should have thought of the possibility of Natasha defecting.

"The child asked me to bring you a sentence:'Our affairs will be resolved by ourselves. The opportunity is in front of you. If you want to go back to Yokohama to take the exam as soon as possible, and don't want to procrastinate endlessly, go to the book and find me."

I pursed my lips and pinched my chin in thought.

[Host, are you really planning to enter the book? 】

"I'm thinking about it."

[If you go, I may not be able to help you. 】

"What else can you do besides growing hair?"

I complained mercilessly.

In the end, I decided to call Dazai first and ask for his opinion.

If it was in the past, I would have decided this matter myself, but I can't do it now.

It's irresponsible to make decisions without your partner's opinion.

"Dazai, if you enter the book you just mentioned, how should you get out?"

"There will be a specific plot in the book, you just need to follow the plot, and finally solve the puzzle set by the author—"

Dazai suddenly realized: "Have you seen that book?"

"Well, Fyodor left me a message. The opportunity to solve the current situation is in the book. I want to try."

"Don't try." Dazai said involuntarily.

"Solving the problem of 'Book' and 'Maria' is my common goal with him, Fyodor will not lie about this matter."

Dazai's tone was low, showing some disapproval: "Yuguo, do you believe him or me?"

"I believe you."

"Just trust me—"

"It is because I believe in you that I will do this."

I interrupted him, emphasizing my tone: "I know you're here, I know I can give you my back completely, and I know I'm willing to take the risk to find a possibility only if I have you covering the whole story for me."

"I don't like to sit and wait, because with you outside, I can fight my way out for myself without worrying about the wind and rain. If something goes wrong, I believe you will be able to find me back."

"Of course, if you still insist on objecting, I won't act arbitrarily regardless of your mood, but please try to trust me, okay?"

I said softly: "As long as you are still waiting for me, I will definitely come back to you soon."

After a pause for a few seconds, I added: "After everything is resolved, I will run to you as fast as I can."

The opposite fell into silence.

It seemed like a century had passed, just when I thought Dazai was determined to disagree with my decision, he spoke:

"Yuguo, I thought about how to solve the problem of Maria's residual consciousness. This is a bit like treating schizophrenia. Either one personality kills the other, or one personality fuses with the other."

He said in a commanding tone: "You are equivalent to the master personality, occupying an absolute advantage, so what Fyodor has to do is to use the plot in the book to arouse Maria's nostalgia for the world. He will spare no effort Attack your 'master personality' and let Maria's consciousness occupy a strong position."

"First of all, you may lose your memory, so that you and Maria are on the same starting line. That book is tailor-made for you, and I speculate that the plot in the book is probably the most exciting time between you and Maria. Longing for the life that resonates with you the most.”

"What you have to do is stay vigilant and not be confused by the illusions in the book... Forget it, if you lose your memory after entering, it's useless to tell you this."

Dazai sighed: "Anyway, I will let Dengtuzi go in with you. Now I am not sure whether Dengtuzi's retinal imaging can transmit the pictures in the book back. I put a microphone on Dengtuzi. If If these devices work, I can keep in touch with you outside the book."

Dazai smiled, and his tone was a little mockingly relaxed: "A talking parrot, I don't know if you will be startled when the time comes."

I also laughed: "That's not true, I just think that I am a chosen child, and I will soon travel to another world to be the savior."

After a pause, I slowed down my voice: "You are too reliable after doing so much analysis and preparation."

Dazai didn't respond to my praise, but changed the subject: "Actually, after learning about the existence of that book from Putao, I had the same thought as Fyodor for a moment, but our purpose is different."

"He wants to return Maria, who belongs only to him, and I just want to bring everyone's Takaho Yuka home early."

Hearing a certain word, my mood inexplicably brightens and warms up.

So I clenched my fists and said with pride, "Dazai, after this battle, let's go back to our hometown and get married!"

"I reject."

The voice on the phone was cruel.

"Eh? Eh——??!" I opened my eyes wide: "Why?!"

"Although I'm very happy to be proposed by Yuguoguo, please don't put up flags."

"Oh, okay."

In fact, I am still a little bit lost, after all, this is my first marriage proposal.

Does this count as a failed marriage proposal?

After waiting for more than half an hour, Deng Tuzi finally flew back to me.

I touched Xiaoniao's head and said with a little emotion: "So you are my ultimate weapon."

Deng Tuzi pecked at my hand: "Beauty, have a smile~"

I pursed my lips and smiled at it.

"The one you just called is the osamu you mentioned earlier?"

Natasha asked in a low voice.

I looked back at the anxious woman, thought about it, and said:

"Natasha, I have not experienced the hardships you have experienced, so I am not qualified to say to you such irresponsible words as 'you must be strong' and 'you must look forward'. But from my shallow personal experience, how many Give yourself some time and it should pass."

"Life is actually a gamble. The consequences of every choice you make are unknown. Who knows whether the future will be better or worse. You are only in your 20s, try it, maybe it will really work."

After speaking, I turned the pages of the book and patted myself.

My eyes suddenly went dark, and I felt a strong suction.

The moment I fell into the book, the memories stored in my mind gradually became blurred, like an eraser, erasing all my past.

No!

I told myself, must remember.

Must remember!

The faces of countless people flashed in front of my eyes, Wuzheng, Port Mafia, Secret Service, Military Police, Public Security...all the people I met were spinning away.

"Don't go, come back!"

I reached out, desperately trying to catch them.

Be it the happy things or the unhappy things, regardless of my persuasion, they were all swept away by the torrent.

So I can only say to myself silently in my heart: "I am Takaho Yuka."

"I'm Takaho Yuka..."

"I am... Takaho... Yuka..."

"I'm……"

"I am... who am I???"

Sleepiness hit, I closed my eyes, curled up into one body, and completely merged into the warm darkness.

·

The sky broke, and a baby crying full of vitality came from the delivery room.

"Congratulations, it's a girl!"

Gao Suiyujiang opened his eyes tiredly, and seeing the little baby brought by the doctor, he couldn't help but smile: "Why is it so wrinkled, like a little monkey."

Although the mouth is disgusted, the eyes are filled with gentle expectation.

"Newborn babies are like this. It will definitely look better when you look at it in a week or so."

The red light above the delivery room turned green, and Dmitriev, who was waiting anxiously, immediately stood up from the bench.

"Sir, congratulations on becoming a father, your wife gave birth to a daughter."

"Is my wife okay?"

"Both adults and children are healthy."

Dmitriev took a long breath and smiled for the first time since his wife entered the delivery room.

……

15 years later.

"Mom, I don't want to go to school, they always say I don't look like everyone else."

I sat at the kitchen table, sluggishly nibbled on my breakfast bread, and complained vaguely to the woman sitting next to me.

My name is Maria Dmitrievna Isaeva. I am 15 years old and I live in a small town near Moscow. My parents opened an orphanage in the town.

That said, I have many siblings.

My father is Russian and my mother is Japanese. They are well-known loving couples in the town. I grew up eating their dog food.

"What do you mean by looking different?"

My mother looked at me in surprise: "They all have two eyes, a nose and a mouth. Don't you have one more mouth than them?"

"The one with the extra mouth is a monster."

Dad touched my little head and said, "Our Maria is so beautiful, they are jealous of you."

I pursed my lips and acted like a baby: "But I just don't want to go~"

"It's okay if you don't want to go to school. The brown bear in the back mountain has given birth to a cub. If you go and bring its cub back, I agree that you won't go to school."

Gao Sui Yujiang said calmly, emphasizing his tone: "Go by yourself, don't ask your elder brother for help!"

"..."

My mother is indeed a cruel person.

"Okay, I'm going to school."

I said wearily.

In order to be able to fight bears in the future, I decided to start exercising today to strengthen my body.

I will never skip class in physical education again!

As if feeling that the tone just now was too blunt, Takaho Yue slowed down his voice: "Don't worry about what others say, do you think you are so ugly?"

"No!" I straightened my waist and raised my voice: "I am the most beautiful and kind-hearted fairy, and fairies don't need to care about other people's eyes!"

Takasui Yujiang: "That's it."

There is no middle school in the town. The school I attend is in the eastern part of Moscow, and there is a school bus to pick me up every morning.

By the way, my older brother and I went to the same school.

"I heard that you were bullied by your classmates?"

On the school bus, Gogol, who was sitting next door, hugged my neck and said with a smile, "Whoever bullies you, tell me, and I will help you get back."

Gogol is the oldest child in the orphanage. He was picked up by his parents from the back mountain, and he has no blood relationship with me.As for where his biological parents are, I didn't dare to ask for fear that he would be sad.

"It was a few male students in the same class, because they bullied Sigma, I went up to stop them, and they started making fun of me!"

"Sigma?" Gogol pinched his chin and thought for a while: "Oh~ I remembered! You are at the same table, right? Why do those boys bully Sigma?"

"Because he studies well and always comes first in the exam!"

I said with disdain on my face: "They don't work hard, but instead bully their hard-working classmates. It's really bad."

Although I don't work hard, even if I fail the first place in the exam, I will not bully the first place in the exam.

I will only find fault with No.2 when I got one point more than No.1 and No.1!

"It's too much~" Gogol bent his eyes into crescent moons: "I thought Sigma was a brother, and I was the neighbor's fiancé..."

His voice was a little low, I couldn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

"Nothing~" Gogol clapped his hands together: "Anyway, leave the classmates who bully you to me!"

In the end, I didn't know what Gogol had done, and those boys always took a detour every time they saw me.

After class, I poked my deskmate who was writing papers with the buttock of a pen: "Hey, I heard that there are chicken legs in the cafeteria today, do you want to grab them?"

"No, there are too many people during the peak period, and I can do a few questions while queuing."

Sigma said without looking up.

I looked at the bright red [-] points on the monthly Sigma exam paper, and suddenly admired this person.

Every time he takes the exam, he looks like he can easily get full marks, but I know that Sigma is not a very smart person.

I can remember the formulas taught by the teacher after listening to them once. It takes him three times as long to memorize the formulas, and he has to do a lot of questions to learn how to use them thoroughly.

How hard do you have to work to look good?

"Are your parents particularly proud of you?"

I asked him in a low voice: "If I work hard and be self-disciplined like you, my parents will be so happy."

Sigma looked a little dazed, then pursed his lips, looking at me with complicated eyes.

"I don't have parents. I only have one sister who is in the same situation as me..."

It turns out that the siblings depend on each other for life?

No wonder Sigma is so obedient and sensible.

I patted my deskmate on the shoulder comfortingly, and said solemnly: "For yourself and your sister, come on!"

No one accompanied me to grab chicken legs, and I felt that life was full of loneliness.

But loneliness is loneliness, and delicious chicken legs still have to be grabbed.

As soon as the get out of class bell rang, I rushed out of the classroom. I was lucky enough to grab the last limited chicken leg. Just as I was happily carrying the chicken leg and walking towards my seat, I was stopped by someone.

"Ahem... classmate, may I ask, is the chicken leg gone?"

When I turned around, a slender and beautiful boy was looking at me with his head tilted slightly.

His black hair is like satin, his skin is as white as snow, and his purple eyes are like the pears my mother freezes in the yard in winter. That pear is so delicious. After thawing, take a bite, and the sweet juice bursts out with crushed ice.

Noticing the hopeful gaze he was looking at the chicken leg, I suddenly became vigilant, picked up the plate and ran away.

Want to take advantage of my beauty to snatch my chicken leg, hmph, no way!

Fyodor stayed where he was, holding an empty plate: "..."
