Ability name The Tale of Genji

Mori Ogai was silent for more than ten seconds.

"Mr. Zhongye, what do you mean...you don't recognize Mr. Xiwu as the leader?"

Nakahara Chuya's hands clenched into fists without a trace.

"Yes, chief."

Actually he lied.

Zhongyuan Zhong also 100% agrees with the sentence "Yuan Xiwu is suitable to be the leader", in other words, he couldn't think of anyone who is more suitable than Yuan Xiwu to be the next leader of the port Mafia.Yuan Xiwu is calm, quiet, well-planned, and sometimes even dedicates himself to the organization in vain.

All these are the virtues of being a leader, maybe Mr. Mori thinks so too, that's why he chose Yuan Xiwu.

but……

Zhongyuan also felt a little perplexed, how many of these "leadership qualities" displayed by Yuan Xiwu recognized from the bottom of his heart?He always thought that he knew enough about this subordinate who stumbled and followed his footsteps, but yesterday he found that the obedient junior would also say such words, such... words full of rebellious heart.

He was worried that his previous cognition was wrong, and worried that the Yuan Xiwu he saw was Yuan Xiwu wearing a mask. The expression of the mask was fixed on a smile and "I don't care", but the face behind the mask was covered with tears.

Just thinking about such a picture, Zhong Yuanzhong trembled.

Mori Ogai showed a slightly troubled expression. He didn't expect that Chuya Chuya, who thought there would be no resistance, would give him such an answer.

"Nakaya-kun, may I ask the reason?"

Facing his subordinates who knew his principles and pursuits, Mori Ogai didn't need to hide too much, so he asked frankly.

"Yugiri-kun becoming the next leader of the port Mafia is the best solution I deduced. In my opinion, the first person to express support for this matter should be Chuya-kun. In Zhongye-kun's Basically to convince other members and cadres...that's the strategy I want to take."

"So, I am very puzzled, why Chuya-kun disagrees." Mori Ogai leaned back on the back of the chair, his forehead slid to the side, at this moment, he seemed to be discussing a problem calmly.

"This matter is only good for Zhongye-jun, right? With Xiwu-jun's character, even if he becomes the leader, he will rely on Zhongye-jun in every aspect. This does not mean that he cannot make independent decisions. In fact... it's still cute, isn't it?"

Mori Ogai smiled.

"Mr. Zhongye doesn't have to worry about estrangement. It's better to say that Mr. Zhongye will become the closest person to Mr. Xiwu because of this."

He even added with a smile.

"Even Dazai-kun can't compare to you."

lure.

This is a honey-like temptation laid out naked in front of her.

Zhong Yuanzhong also felt that he was clenching his teeth. He resisted the urge to agree and forced himself to think about all the unreasonable things he noticed.

"I thought it was... Dazai..."

"It used to be true." Mori Ogai paused, "But I thought about it again, especially the various strategies Dazai-kun adopted in this Holy Grail War gave me a strong shock. I think that Dazai-kun My mind is too active, and I may not follow the path I planned."

Zhong Yuanzhong was also silent for a while.

"However, everyone has their own ideas, and Yugiri also..."

"He can do without."

Zhong Yuan was also terrified for a moment, he looked up in a daze, and the person sitting behind the desk was undoubtedly a smiling demon.

"Just break him."

Mori Ogai stood up and paced around the huge office.

"Just break him. This process must be simpler than breaking Dazai-kun. Because Dazai-kun is more willing to leave this world, this is a headache. Even if you use a cruel hand, it will be completely ineffective against the desperadoes."

"But Xiwu wants to live."

The footsteps stopped, and Mori Ogai showed a rare slightly excited look on his face.

"He will fully inherit my philosophy and follow the path I have planned."

"Like..."

"My continuation is average."

His last sentence was so soft that it was almost a whisper, and Mori Ogai showed a dreamy look on his face. There is nothing better than such an heir who fully continues his will and ideas.He has been thinking about this issue since he became the leader. Yuan Xiwu is like a gift from heaven.

Nakahara Chuya heard Mori Ogai's voice, and the past missions and instructions were flooding in his mind.These pasts are like hammers, trying to reshape Yuan Xiwu, and he is watching unconsciously by the side, and even, maybe even playing the role of an accomplice.

What is he going to do now?Express your opinion again?And then... become an accomplice again?

Zhong Yuanzhong also took a deep breath and knelt down on one knee.

"Boss, I agree with your philosophy 100%."

"Because of this, I don't think anyone else will be better than you on this path."

Unless someone like Osamu Dazai ascends the throne and leads the organization in a direction that is different from Mori Ogai's, but also heading for a strong direction, otherwise, Zhongyuan Chu will not be able to recognize it.

"I don't think a puppet with your shadow will lead Port Mafia to high places."

"Forgive me, I can't agree."

The office door closed, leaving Mori Ogai with a headache inside, and Nakahara Nakahara heaved a sigh of relief.Now he can't tell whether what he said just now is the sincerity or an excuse, maybe there is a certain truth, but more because he doesn't want Yuan Xiwu to get involved in it.

correct theory?Optimal solution?Central Plains also admitted that it doesn't matter if he is sacrificed, but the sacrificed one cannot be Yugiri.

He was surprised by his own double standards, and responded with a wry smile. Sure enough, he has not made any progress in the way of being a leader from the past to the present.

... How embarrassing.

***

Yuan Xiwu was taken away early by her seniors, had a drink at the beach, and went to work normally the next day with a dazed expression on her face.The senior refused to reveal a word to him, even guessing what happened in the chief's office was useless, so Yuan Xiwu could only observe silently.

He found that when he was about to leave work, the senior took the initiative to transfer the past files.

One mission report after another flashed across Zhongyuan Zhongye's eyes. He singled out the ones related to Yuan Xiwu and put them aside. Unknowingly, he had accumulated a large pile.Zhongyuan Zhong also held the large stack of reports and started to look through them again from the beginning.

kill... kill... kill...

The darkness in the cobalt blue eyes became deeper and deeper, and after turning the last page, he let out a long breath and allowed himself to sink into the chair.

Is this how... to break?

Killing... is actually painful, right?

It was late at night, and everyone in the building had left, only the night watchmen remained.The surroundings are very quiet, but in the Central Plains, who is stuck in the chair, he seems to hear the cicadas singing. The cicada shed a thin layer of cicada clothes, and then climbed into the thick shade, leaving only an empty shell.

Isn't the broken Yuanxi mist like this empty shell?Can't scream, can't move, said it is dead, but it seems to be alive.

The door was knocked lightly twice, but Zhong Yuanzhong didn't respond, the brim of his hat tilted down to cover his face, he was too tired to speak now.

"……senior?"

The eyes under the brim of the hat slowly opened.

Yuan Xiwu held two cans of warm juice in his hand, poked his head tactically, and after confirming that the senior was alone, he became more courageous.

"Senior, are you still working overtime?" He said as he walked in, "There is no end to overtime, I will help senior with a little, and the rest will be done tomorrow..."

"No more crying."

Zhong Yuanzhong also spoke suddenly.

"Since being provoked that time, I haven't cried again."

Except for the experience of being provoked by the inner ghost when he was still childish and then holding his leg and crying loudly, Zhong Yuanzhong has never seen Yuan Xiwu shed tears in a serious manner.Yuan Xiwu is always stable and efficient, and sometimes he is in a bad mood, which can only be called a bad mood, and it will never affect his work.

Yuan Xiwu was stunned for a moment, not knowing why the senior suddenly recalled the past, but still continued to talk.

"After all, I'm already a mature Mafia, crying like I was back then..."

As he talked, he felt a little embarrassed.

"Senior, did you remember what happened before? At that time, I was really inexperienced. Thinking about it now, there is no need to cry like that. If there is enough evidence..."

"But, obviously you should cry."

"...?"

"After cursing and killing others."

"...!!!"

Zhong Yuan also straightened up, his voice was filled with a kind of restrained anger.This anger was not directed at Yuan Xiwu, but at himself who didn't realize it.

"Xiwu, you don't like killing people, do you? It's even painful every time."

"This one……"

"But still every time..."

Gravity kicked in, and the entire desk collapsed in an instant, and the task reports were poured chaotically on the ground.Yuan Xiwu was taken aback, he had never seen his senior get so angry, he was a little panicked, put down the juice quickly, and tried to explain.

"Senior, please don't be angry... I just..."

He walked around behind the desk, wanting to tug on the senior's cloak, but he hesitated after all.He thought that the senior was questioning his professionalism. After all, Mafia, who suffered from murder, was really...

——The half-stretched hand that was about to be retracted was suddenly caught.

Zhong Yuanzhong also raised his eyes to look at him, and there seemed to be flames beating in the cobalt blue pupils.

"It's not me who should be angry."

"It's you!"

He is ignorant until now, he has not even noticed Yuan Xiwu's pain, obviously there are so many clues, obviously there are so many abnormalities, but he seems to be blindfolded with his hands, he has never noticed anything!

It was Yuan Xiwu who should be angry.

"Why do you treat a hopeless senior like me..."

"You didn't lose your temper either."
