I'm gone

"Mr. Mori probably thinks so."

Isshiki said so. At that time, he had returned to the real world from the parallel world with Ranpo Edogawa and Poe.

In that world, it was Edogawa Ranpo who got the book, he saved his parents who died prematurely, and he became precocious and calm, but everything in the world could be clearly understood for him, now it’s fine, even The other worlds are also boring and pessimistic, so he is as arrogant as a god, prefers his favorite characters, plays with people's hearts, and eventually becomes a disaster, but Yi Hue Sheng's position at that time was to stand in the perspective of the combination that Edgar Allan Poe was in, to help defeat 【Edogawa Ranpo】.

There is the all-powerful famous detective Edogawa Ranpo, even if he has mastered the book, he can beat it, because he can still grasp the balance between reason and sensibility, and that [Edogawa Ranpo] has already gone Extreme, it is understandable for the other party to look down on the scenery of the world from a high position, and finally suffer a crushing defeat.

The works that Isshiki and the others used when they went in are already very good works, and works that achieve stepwise growth are very rare. Under the double function of Wen Siquan, a wonderful book is not a problem at all.

The final ending was a happy ending. Edgar Allan Poe's works were popular in the world at that time, and gained a terrifying influence; [Edogawa Ranpo] finally regained his humanity, and began to look forward to the cause of the arrival of Edogawa Ranpo and others. A different future; Ranpo Edogawa met his parents again, hugged them one by one, and waved goodbye to them frankly.

The only regret may be that even if Edgar Allan Poe cooperated with Edogawa Ranpo, the characters in the book written seemed to be unable to defeat Edogawa Ranpo.

Edogawa Ranpo put his hips on his hips and laughed, "After all, Ranpo-sama is the world's number one detective!"

The corners of Yishensheng's mouth raised unconsciously, and he put his hand on the book published by Edgar Allan Poe. When the supernatural power was activated, their eyes opened and closed, and they returned to the familiar Armed Detective Agency.

Isshiki thanked the two for the pleasant performance, and when he got up and was about to go out to find [Dazai Osamu], Edogawa Ranpo suddenly stopped Isshiki.

"Wait, Xiangsheng."

Ishoku turned his face subconsciously, and saw Edgar Allan Poe's surprised expression, and Edogawa Ranpo's emerald green eyes opened after he put on his glasses.

"Extraordinary power, super reasoning, activate!"

Automatic without wind.

Edogawa Ranbu's smile gradually faded, he lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"If there's nothing wrong..." Yihui Xiangsheng didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the matter at all, he turned around and touched the doorknob, "Then I'll go first..."

"Your consciousness is about to dissipate."

not death.

There was no death either.

Just dissipate.

Just the dissolution of consciousness.

But it describes a state in such a specific way...

Yishixiangsheng's fingertips froze.

He slowly retracted his fingertips, curled his fingers into his pockets, and turned around calmly: "What is Mr. Ranpo talking about?"

"I'm saying, your consciousness will soon dissipate." Edogawa Ranpo patiently repeated his own words, which was rare.

Poe next to him wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ranpo Edogawa.

Yise Xiangsheng seemed to find it a little funny: "Mr. Ranpo, could it be possible that you predicted what kind of vegetable I would become? If you know what accident I will encounter next, please tell me directly."

"That's not an accident." Edogawa Ranpo said indifferently, "It's what happened next."

Yi Hue said "Oh": "What did Mr. Ranpo say?"

"It's very simple." Edogawa Ranpo said, "Because you are Dazai, you have already died once, but you still pursue the dead Dazai."

Edgar Allan Poe covered his mouth for an instant, and Karl the Raccoon was trembling like him. They all felt that the next topic was not something they could listen to.

Edgar Allan Poe moved Carl quietly to the inner lounge.

"This is really pleasing." Isshiki rolled his eyes, and he suddenly laughed, and the face that belonged to Dazai Osamu suddenly became vivid and flexible, "You should know that I just came back from the port of Mafia, so Do you know what Mr. Mori thinks of me?"

He asked himself and answered: "Mr. Mori probably thinks this way: Yishishengsheng is the manifestation of the disqualification in the human world of Dazai Ji's supernatural body in other worlds."

Before Edogawa Ranbu could speak, he spoke again: "And Dazai Osamu thinks so: Isshiki is the book of the main world."

"It's really strange." Yi Hue Xiangsheng said every word, "Three people, three guesses."

"No, it's a guess."

Yihui Xiangsheng paused strangely.

He met Kamiedogawa Ranbu's eyes, and now he didn't rush away, turned around and found a seat on the sofa to sit down, pretending to be listening carefully.

Edogawa Ranpo was satisfied.

"First of all, let me talk about my opinion." Edogawa Ranpo got up from the chair, walked to the opposite side of Isshiki and sat down. He stopped Poe who was about to slip away, and asked him to bring snacks and drinks. As if preparing for a long speech, "When I say you are Osamu Dazai, I mean that your body is Osamu Dazai."

Edogawa Ranpo stared at Isshiki: "You can't hide it from me. According to the law of time travel you proposed, it is impossible for the same two people to exist in a world."

But taking the world they went to just now as an example, Edogawa Ranpo and [Edogawa Ranpo] existed at the same time for a period of time; and even without mentioning other worlds, this world is also [Dazai Osamu] and Dazai Osamu at the same time. In the world of existence, this naturally violates the law that Yihuxiangsheng said.

Besides, traveling through parallel worlds through works is full of uncertainties.It may not be clear to say this, so let’s put it this way: If Junichiro Tanizaki delivers his work to Isshisho, will the world they travel through be the original world? If not, then the mechanism of time travel will change again. How is it assessed?

Combined with the works written by Edgar Allan Poe, Ranpo Edogawa believes in another possibility.

That is, Yihuosheng has been lying from beginning to end.He doesn't need any books at all, he is born with the ability to allow people to travel through parallel worlds, and his mastery of this ability is far more mature than others imagined, and there are no special restrictions on traveling through the world, all depends on One color creates one's own mood.

Most of the students of the same color choose to take the writer to travel through the world where the writer is dead. I am afraid that it is because the people who travel with the writer of the same color have a sense of uncertainty of fate and the motivation to change their destiny. The existence of the world to stir up not to mention earth-shaking but also obvious changes in that world.

So why would the one-hue students do this?

Because one color is born to restore the world.

Each parallel world has its own development, but in the parallel universe related to this book, Yokohama is without exception the home field.

So someone in Yokohama got the book.

However, unlike the main world, if there are multiple people with knowledge books in the secondary world, the secondary world will collapse, so Yihuxiang Sheng must go to the secondary world to stabilize the development of other parallel worlds by allocating the pages of the main world.

From this point of view, Yise Shengsheng exists as a book in the main world, so he cannot interfere too much in the development of other worlds, he must rely on the power of other people, but as a book requesting other people, he will encounter a vortex of interests Therefore, he chose this persuasive way to guide the people of Yokohama to change other worlds.

But he is not just a book, because if the book has self-awareness, then the world will have too much instability, because self-awareness represents feelings and preferences to a certain extent, and the world does not need this. It is a kind of preference, so he can only be said to be the executor of the main world book.

So where did the people in the main world find the executors?This guy must care about Yokohama. This guy had better be someone who has a book and a sense of reason. This guy can make other people in the main world actively pay attention and even come to him...

In the end, the book selected a [Leader Zai] supernatural ability.

This [Leader Zai] has arranged retreats for everyone, willing to sacrifice himself for the world; Any attention from people waiting...

But not himself.

Saving a world is tiring enough, and it's not easy to reawaken him from the world of the undead; and to negotiate a deal with [Leader Zai], such a genius who is above the world doesn't even know if he can control it properly.

[Disqualification in the World] is the right candidate.

At least he has been watching [Leader Zai] in obscurity, and he is the most suitable character for [Leader Zai]'s dead body; at least he has awakened from the ignorance of supernatural powers, and is the most easily controlled character by the book; at least he also inherited [Leader Zai] Zai's emotions, combined with his original standpoint of a bystander, is the most suitable role to stay out of the matter and be the driving force behind the scenes.

Therefore, the generation of one form is the unity of the three.

He is disqualified in the world, got the body of [Leader Zai] to live on, and walks in the world with the power of books.

But when the task is over and the book takes back his power, Yihuixiangsheng will follow [Leader Zai] and disappear together.

"Is it worth it?" Edogawa Ranpo asked, "You can extend the time you have consciousness, and you don't have to rush to complete the task like you are now, which reduces the risk of other worlds and pushes yourself into It's hopeless."

Isshiki did not answer Edogawa Ranpo's question.

There was a faint smile on his face, as elegant and indifferent as an iris flower, and a magnetic voice sounded softly, and Edogawa Ranpo heard Isshiki say: "Then Mr. Ranpo needs a lot of help, help me collect some articles .”

Edogawa was stunned for a moment, curled his lips, took off his glasses, and muttered: "It's up to you."

The eyes of the same color moved to Poe, who was already dumbfounded, and the voice was also gentle: "And Mr. Poe, can you help promote me to the group? I am happy to let them witness a different world."

Ellen Bonne nodded in agreement.

Isshiki seems satisfied.

He got up to leave, this time, no one stopped him.

The door was closed again.

Ellen Poe moved his lips and looked at Ranpo Edogawa.

Edogawa closed his eyes randomly, leaned back and sank in the middle of the sofa, and snorted softly: "Forget it, if this is Xiangsheng's wish..."

On the other hand, Isshiki returned from the Armed Detective Agency with 【Osamu Dazai】.

【Osamu Dazai】Looks a little sleepy.

Of course, no one would be in a good mood to learn that one of his friends in this world betrayed and died. Although he showed off his status to Osamu Dazai, this was nothing more than a stab in the heart of both parties.

【Osamu Dazai】Originally, he promised Mori Ogai to visit the port of Mafia frequently.

Now it seems--

Hehe, whoever is a guest is a puppy!

"This world is meaningless at all." [Osamu Dazai] shouted happily, "I want to go back."

"Then let's talk about writing a good enough book." Isshiki responded to 【Osamu Dazai】.

It was only noon at this time.

Yihui Xiangsheng took the water bottle to water the green plants on the balcony.

【Osamu Dazai】At first, I lacked interest, but when I saw the green plant, I was stunned for a moment, and curiously moved over to it.

"When did you plant it? I remember that it looked like dead grass last night, but today it bloomed such beautiful flowers."

Even [Osamu Dazai] had to admit the beauty and delicacy of the blue flowers.

"His name is Riko Isshiki." Isshiki Xiangsheng introduced to 【Osamu Dazai】seriously.

"..." [Osamu Dazai] showed a disgusted face, "Wow, I didn't expect you to have the habit of naming flowers, and it's so sticky—"

"My name comes from him." Yihui smiled, "Yishiliguang means a single-color flower that can only bloom under the sun."

"——a kind of flower from the other shore."

He glanced at [Osamu Dazai], remembered something, and took off the bug from the collar on the back of his neck: "Here, this is what you stuck behind me when Mr. Ranpo and I entered the room, did you hear that?" What?"

[Osamu Dazai] calmly took over the bug and destroyed it, without any embarrassment of being discovered: "Everything was discovered."

"Don't speak in a cute tone." Yihui Xiangsheng put the kettle down, leaned on the handrail of the balcony and looked into the distance, "If you find everything... what conclusion can you draw?"

"As expected of Mr. Ranpo."

"Then I want to tell you that he was wrong."

"……Oh?"

【Osamu Dazai】Squint your eyes to see Isshiki.

Isshiki shrugged: "This body is indeed owned by a certain Dazai who became the leader, but I am not disqualified from the world, I am a book."

His iris eyes reflected the color of the sky.

【Osamu Dazai】The initial guess was correct.

Yishixiangsheng is a book.

It's just that it's not the book of the master world, but the book of the [leader ruled] world.

After the death of [Leader Zai], the book was divided into two parts, one half was handed over to [Atsushi Nakajima] and the other half was handed over to [Ryunosuke Akutagawa]. ] Originally a member of the Armed Detective Agency, the book was finally merged and sealed by them, and in this process, consciousness was born from the same color.

So he was brought up almost unconsciously by the Armed Detective Agency and Port Mafia, so he inherited some common traits of characters from both factions.

Among them are the resourcefulness of [Leader Jae], the insight of [Edogawa Ranpo], the paranoia of [Akutagawa Ryunosuke], and the loyalty of [Nakajima Atsushi]...

But the same color is lonely.

Because as a book, he shouldn't show preference to anyone, and he silently enforces this.

Until the battle of the supernatural beings, everyone was bleeding on the ground and corpses were strewn all over the place to snatch the book, Yise Xiangsheng chose the same path as [Leader Zai], destroying himself and protecting the whole world.

——This kind of existence that can fulfill any wish is a heresy that shouldn't exist.

It is said that all conscious beings will reach the other shore and will be judged. One Hue Xiangsheng unintentionally gave birth to consciousness, and unconsciously came to a world that he had never seen before.

There he met Liguang, a non-human who was also different from others of his kind.

At least they are not the protagonists, but they are characters who occupy positions in their respective worlds that can determine the fate of the protagonist.

Li Guang said to him: "Hey! Do you want to experience the joy of living for yourself? Then throw away all unhappiness and start from scratch! I will help you—"

Liguang is Bianhua, so he knows about reincarnation, and can help people enter reincarnation. He washes away the memory of one-color life, and helps one-color life without having to bear anything. Everything he does can be for himself.

"What can I do for you?" Yihui Xiangsheng asked.

"I want to see the darkness." Riguang shook his body, and replied brightly, "I want to be the darkness!"

He lived in daylight from birth to death, and the most beautiful brilliance was dedicated to the sun, but he also wanted to see the scenery at night and blend into the darkness.

"Use your pages to write me the worst life. I want to see if I am in this adversity, what will happen to me. If I can still live in the sun at this time, then I have no regrets."

Yihuxiangsheng naturally agreed without hesitation.

He tasted the happiness of an egoist, and Liguang also understood the dark dream. They recognized each other as the only special in their respective growth. What a pleasant past.

...Unfortunately, it's just the past.

Just as the cyan Bana flower only blooms for two or three days, Liguang only accompanied Yihu Xiangsheng through two worlds, and in the third world, Liguang couldn't bear to change back to its original state.

It stands to reason that Yihuxiangsheng should also disappear, but I don’t know if it’s a coincidence—no, it must have been intentional by Riko. Yihuxiangsheng came to this world, this world with the main world book, so he can replenish energy and continue to survive , even as long as he does not die in this world, he can obtain eternal life.

But one color is not happy.

Because the light is gone.

So he came to the school as a teacher to cultivate students' writing ability - he himself is a book, and it is very simple to turn these students into people with supernatural powers. It is extremely simple to seal the mouths of those with superpowers he has cultivated by himself; The quality of the book is also higher.

Isshiki doesn't need a book as a medium to travel through the world, but he can set up such a false impression, trigger other sad conjectures, and then arouse the sympathy of others, such as Edogawa Rampo, thus sweeping more people to participate in his journey through the world During the operation, he voluntarily helped him do an act called "repairing the world", which actually made Yishisheng swallow the book.

As the book of the secondary world, Yihuesheng is devouring the books of other sub-worlds. Because the book of the main world is the core, he will not get involved, and the other worlds have completely become the place for him to capture.

What is he doing this for?

For the sake of light.

He wants to live longer in this world, get more power, and then let Li Guang live in the world he independently created for him.

"Why are you telling me these things?"

After a long silence, 【Osamu Dazai】asked the question in his heart.

The same color is still in front of the line of sight.

He replied: "I don't want Li Guang to struggle for me... Well, although my position in his heart may not be that important."

He slowly closed his eyes: "So he must have forgotten me."

Yishixiangsheng will use a book to rewrite the encounter between the two.

But after he finishes rewriting, he will be exhausted and unable to bring Liguang into that world, so [Osamu Dazai] needs to come out at this time.

"I don't want to participate in this sticky and disgusting feeling..." [Osamu Dazai] seems to want to turn around and leave: even if it is just a matter of effort for him.

"Do you know why I chose you, Mr. Dazai?"

Isshiki continued without hesitation: "Because I need a Mr. Dazai who will become the leader. In my world, besides the leader, there is another person who will not die well."

"It's Mr. Zhongyuan."

【Osamu Dazai】s footsteps stopped suddenly.

Isshiki said: "In the event of confronting the combination, Mr. Nakahara will turn on the filth, but Mr. Dazai has passed away at that time, so no one can stop Mr. Nakahara. He will drag himself and the group to die together. Port Mafia lost its leader for the third time. The group had no leader, and eventually disbanded completely."

Isshiki lowered his eyes: "Mr. Dazai arranged the ending of everyone, but Mr. Zhongyuan was the only one who avoided it. Now the timeline of that world has not yet arrived, and there is still time for everything."

【Osamu Dazai】The cynicism and sarcasm overestimated the status of that little dwarf slug in his mind.

One color is noncommittal.

He just knelt down under Dazai Osamu's slowly widening eyes, raised his head, and said in the most sincere and respectful tone he had ever seen.

"Mr. Dazai, please stay here for another seven days."

"Seven days later, I will exhaust all my strength to write a book for Mr. Liguang. At that time, I will restore the appearance of the book and become your property. There is no possibility of resurrection."

"You just need to plant Mr. Liguang in the book world."

"At that time, I will send Mr. Dazai to the place where the leader is Mr. Dazai. Everything depends on Mr. Dazai."

"Mr. Dazai."

【Osamu Dazai】I don't know when the clenched fist was slightly loosened.

He knew that Yi Hue Sheng was not threatening him, but blocking his life and future from him.

but……

Who is Riko?He didn't know him, but he knew this one-color student, the guy who had been silently behind the scenes from beginning to end.

Not to mention selfless dedication, it can also be said to be dedicated.

What egoists...

Isn't he...still helping everyone?

"I……"

【Osamu Dazai】Let go of your fist.

"I promise."

Zhong Yuanzhong is also more likable than this guy.

So Issei smiled.

For the first time, he smiled innocently like a child. 【Osamu Dazai】Looked at the face that never belonged to him, and remained silent the whole time without saying a word.
