Mori Ogai went out with his own humanoid ability Alice on the New Year's Eve which is a rare day.

Most of the low-level members of the port mafia and support staff were on vacation, and only combat members stayed in the headquarters building to prepare for emergencies.

The cadre tried to dissuade him repeatedly, and Mori Ogai smiled and refused the other party's escort, but he still made some preparations - after putting on a little makeup, if it weren't for someone who was familiar with him, it would be impossible to tell that it was him.

Seeing that the black and blue bags under the eyes of Mori Ogai were about to hang down to his mouth, and he looked like he worked overtime until he died from overwork. On the important festival of New Year's Eve, Alice agreed to the other party's plea and put on a gorgeous dress New Year's theme skirt.

"Only this time, Rintaro."

"Huh? Alice-chan~~ I'm so touched—so can I try this one again? This one is also very pretty."

"Lin, Tai, Lang! Don't push yourself too far!"

……

After a few months of silence and depression, Yokohama has rarely seen such a prosperous scene again.

Every household was lit with colorful lights, and there were constant laughter and laughter coming from the house.

There were people on the street again at night, and some people who had finished their meal and were going to the temple to pray for blessings were dressed in formal kimonos, talking and laughing as they walked.When they meet acquaintances, they will stop each other in surprise, and sigh that it is great that the other party is still alive.

A harmonious New Year atmosphere can be seen everywhere on the streets.

Mori Ogai observed all this quietly, with a sincere smile on his face.

"Alice-chan, I just want to see a scene like Yokohama, so I can take the position of leader." Mori Ogai's voice was so low that he seemed to be talking to himself: "The current turmoil is temporary. It's for long-term stability in the future. As long as we get through these few months..."

"Throwing this year over, everything will be fine next year."

The appearance of a man holding a little girl standing in the middle of the road attracted the attention of passers-by.No one will be stingy to show kindness on such an important festival, even in turbulent times.

The old lady passing by smiled kindly, took out a candy from her pocket, bent down and handed it to Alice: "Brother, even if only you and the child are left, you must live strong and everything will be fine." Neither the government nor the port mafia will just sit idly by, I believe them. You see, it’s a good start if you can live in peace for a year.”

Obviously, the old woman misunderstood this combination of a big and a small and the emotional expression on Mori Ogai's face as a family that lost its mother.

Mori Ogai was stunned, and then couldn't laugh or cry: "Eh? Actually, no, ah, but thank you anyway, and I hope you all go well next year."

After saying goodbye to the old woman, Ogai Mori took Alice to many places, and from the places that were once prosperous, but now there are only ruins, he clearly saw how much the war had affected Yokohama.

"Alice-chan, do you want to visit the temple?" Mori Ogai lowered his head and said with a smile.

Alice suddenly looked vigilantly not far away.

The smile on Mori Ogai's face suddenly subsided, and he looked up slowly. ,

Across the wide street, under the advertising screen that hadn't been turned on for a long time, a black figure stood quietly at the corner of the street, looking at this side.

In the crowd passing by, the man's steady demeanor was still conspicuous.

The black-haired young man has an extremely handsome face. His blue earrings refract beautiful light under the weak light, matching with the pair of quiet black eyes, as if like a whirlpool, drawing all eyes on him Everyone is attracted to it.

Even though there is a thick white bandage wrapped around his forehead, it still doesn't hinder his handsomeness.

Noticing Mori Ogai's gaze, the black-haired youth smiled and walked across the street with long legs.

"This gentleman." The young man was as polite as a college student, with a clean voice: "You seemed to be looking at me just now? Did I offend you?"

Mori Ogai blinked, buried his vigilance and vigilance in his eyes, smiled again and said: "Just seeing my brother standing alone on the side of the road is really not suitable for New Year's Eve."

"what……"

The black-haired young man laughed: "Because my family members died long ago, and I am the only one left."

"It's really difficult to spend New Year's Eve alone, sir, would you mind walking with me for a while?" The young man politely extended the invitation.

Mori Ogai readily agreed.

"My name is Ivanov. I came here from Russia to look for an old friend, but I don't know what happened. No matter how I search, I can't find it, which makes me a little distressed."

The young man who claimed to be Ivanov sighed with emotion, and his expression of disappointment was just right, making him look like he was really just grieving alone on New Year's Eve.

"Yokohama is so chaotic, Mr. Ivanov can still come here to look for it, it seems that he is really a very important person. Is it your relative?"

Mori Ogai tentatively said calmly: "Although it is cruel to say this, has Ivanov considered the possibility that the person you are looking for has died in a gang fight? Yokohama is really not a suitable place to stay for a long time , Mr. Ivanov did not consider returning to Russia?"

The word Russia raised Mori Ogai's vigilance to the highest level.

——The [Rat of the Dead House], which has been making waves in Yokohama recently but has been repeatedly missed, comes from Russia.

"My well-meaning friend also advised me in the same way. But the old man I'm looking for is really not someone who would die because of a little struggle."

Ivanov laughed without warmth: "He chased me all over the world for ten years, and finally died with me in the explosion. When I woke up again, I found that I had lost everything."

"He gave me back all the fire and blood of that night." Ivanov walked leisurely, but his eyes were cold: "Obviously he is the most suitable character to live in the dark, but... the only thing I did wrong was He was not discovered that night, and he was not eradicated on the spot, so that he was given time to sharpen and grow."

Ivanov tilted his head slightly, and smiled at Mori Ogai: "But this time, I won't make the same mistake again."

Mori Ogai had completely thrown away his mask, and he stared at Ivanov with cold dignity: "Listen to what Mr. Ivanov said, he is indeed an old man who has been deeply entangled, but why do you want to treat me? Say this?"

"Because, thanks to Mr. Chief, I discovered the traces of that old man." Ivanov unceremoniously pointed out Mori Ogai's identity, not worried at all whether he would anger the other party: "Things have changed." It's getting interesting."

"Because of the entrustment entrusted to me by my well-meaning friend, I only noticed that the old man I had been looking for was hiding in the port mafia to live a leisurely life. It seems that he has not learned any lessons from the previous things. So... ..."

"I want to play a game with my dear old friend and sworn enemy."

Ivanov smiled, raised his hand unhurriedly, and took out a bookmark from his suit pocket.

"Mr. First is the ticket that forces him in, and the stakes are -- all he has."

The light was shining in Ivanov's hands, and an invisible barrier was pulled down, covering the two of them together with Alice. Before the combat members who were guarding Mori Ogai in the dark rushed up, they all Lost track before them.

"Alice!" Mori Ogai called out his humanoid ability.

But the little girl didn't respond, and dissipated like a bubble when Ivanov looked at her.

Mori Ogai's pupils constricted.

His brain was working quickly, and then he suddenly realized that on the way here, an old woman gave Alice a candy, which Alice put in her pocket.

Ability poison?Or is it a supernatural ability triggered by touch?

"Please rest assured, Mr. First, I also have my own rules of conduct, and I will not mess around. You just need to stay here until my game is over."

Ivanov smiled gracefully: "Let me introduce again, I am Kurolo Rusilu."

The spider's code of conduct is - to behave indiscriminately.

Kazama Yardan's family enjoyed a sumptuous dinner together.

The two teenagers accidentally ate too much, and they slumped on the chair, unable to get up.The two adults who opened the red wine were already slightly tipsy.

Of course, according to their drinking capacity, it was more like this leisurely and relaxed atmosphere that fascinated them than red wine.

"It's already this time." Kazama Yardan raised her hand and glanced at her watch, and got up first: "Let's go to the temple together to watch the New Year's Eve."

Osamu Dazai immediately cheered, and went back to change into the New Year's kimono he had prepared.

——The mouse-gray striped kimono, which he had been looking forward to for a long time, was just the right clothes for New Year's Eve.

Nakahara Chu also knew nothing about these things, but when Ran Kazama and Sakunosuke Oda were making kimonos together, he had already made his kimono.

Nakahara looked at the formal kimono with hair color similar to his own, and thanked the two in surprise.

And Megumi Fukuro, who was wrapped up in a black and white kimono, was more like a sesame ball that leaked.

Kazamain Ran gently arranged the coat worn over the blue kimono for Oda Sakunosuke, and then took the family out to the temple.

The bustling crowds on the road were all preparing to watch the New Year's Eve bell ringing in the temple. During the festival, there were lights and festoons, vendors selling small things and playing games, which made Fu Heihui, who had never seen such a scene, unable to move his eyes away.

A few people went to buy a guard to wear on their bodies, and then happily lined up at the place where the bell was ringing, waiting for the countdown to the New Year.

"I didn't expect Lan, do you still believe this?" Oda Sakunosuke caressed the safe guard that Lan Kazamain handed over to him, smiling softly.

"No, I am a person abandoned by the gods, and I never believe in gods and Buddhas." Kazama Yardan whispered close to her lover's ear: "My only belief is you."

——I will guard you like the guardian god of believers, and will not let you be disturbed by darkness.

Oda Sakunosuke looked back gently, his eyes sparkling.

Then he raised his hand and wrapped his arms around Kazama Yardan's neck, and slowly kissed the cool thin red lips amidst the exclamation of the people around him.

Breaths mingle, breaths exchange.

There is nothing else in the field of vision, only each other.

The two could clearly see the love in each other's eyes that was as warm as spring water.

"Boom--!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"New Year's Eve! Happy New Year!"

Amid the sound of bells and cheers, the two slowly separated.

"Happy New Year." Kazama Yardan whispered softly, offering her lover the first blessing of the New Year.

Oda Sakunosuke couldn't stop smiling
