I was the favorite of all the members in the first episode, and I turned out to be BE

Sawada Tsunayoshi raised his eyebrows. From the afternoon until now, his eyebrows have not been relaxed. Although Ayu's wound has been healed by Harunoichi, she may have been frightened. She has not woken up yet.

The illusionist always pays attention to her dreams and prevents the pigeons from intruding into her dreams. The sudden appearance of Ayu ten years later disrupts their arrangement, but it also makes them completely give up the bet with the pigeons.

They were not overwhelmed by the news brought by Ah Yu ten years later, but the idea that they had to deal with the pigeons became stronger and stronger.

What's more, since the pigeons will not perform the contract no matter whether they win or lose, it means that they can completely overturn the gambling table-the pigeons think that they can win steadily because they are the bankers, but they may have forgotten that their job is to be happy. A mafia that tramples on rules it doesn't want to follow.

It's like obediently letting the croupier deal the cards, accepting the outcome of fate... Unfortunately, they are good at breaking fate and tearing down casinos.

So, sorry, they don't play this game.

"Gang Ji-jun——" In front of him, the white-haired man was carrying a bag of cotton candy. He leaned on the back of the sofa and waved to him briskly like waving wings, "Long time no see, I can't imagine how fast you came Not too slow."

Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at the white-haired man in front of him with a calm expression, his frown loosened and then raised again.

"Bryn."

Before their sudden arrival here, only Coulom and Tsunayoshi Sawada had been in the ward.

Some other people went to investigate the reason why the rocket launchers were suddenly exchanged after ten years, and some people went to meet with the children of Rainbow who had just come to Bingsheng. strange place.

On the opposite side was Bai Lan.

Although it was said that Bai Lan and them were also allies later, the fact that a disagreement was brought to a world that was obviously ten years later was a lesson learned from before, and if she was not vigilant, she would be sorry for Bai Lan who was defeated by them hard.

But Bai Lan didn't mind at all that some of them were wary of him, he just smiled very frivolously, the smile was sweeter and more dazzling than the cotton candy in his hand.

"Hmm—don't worry, everyone in Vengley, don't worry that I'm still trying to snatch the ring, that's no longer of interest to me." He raised his finger and pointed to his temple, "I also have amazing future memories, so This time I have a new game."

"The future..." Collom looked at him suddenly, "Is it your fault that the future Ayu came to the past?"

"Isn't it?" Bai Lan said.

"Bastard——" Yuji was instantly irritated by his flirtatious attitude, Sasakawa Ryohei stopped him vigorously from behind him, the boy with gray and short hair looked at the man with a serious and cold expression, and his voice matched his expression same calm attitude.

"You and Yamamoto are trying to calm down first, Komori is still waiting for us to go back, don't be impulsive."

Takeshi Yamamoto, who had put his hand on the hilt of the knife, smiled brightly: "If you cut down the enemy and go back, maybe Ah Yu will wake up early."

"Kufufufu, I will not let Bailan Jesso bully Nagi."

"Ah, you are going to attack the leader of the alliance family - is this what you mean, Tsunayoshi-kun?" Not only was Bai Lan not nervous, he squeezed the marshmallow and looked at Sawada Tsunayoshi with a smile.

Sawada Tsunayoshi pressed his hand down, "It's ok, everyone." Amid Takeshi Yamamoto's regretful retraction of the sheath, he calmly looked at Bai Lan's purple eyes without a smile, "It's time for you to explain , Bai Lan."

"I really need to explain it quickly, Mr. Raven and I can only deceive the pigeons for a while."

Prynne said he showed them the bird that had been hiding behind him just now.

"However, let Mr. Raven explain it to you. I'm not a good storyteller."

"Raven?"

The whole body of the crow was black, like ink, and also like the color of the sky at the end of the night - it tilted its head, opened its mouth towards them, and made a bird call that made some people reflexively touch their weapons.

Tsunayoshi Sawada saw dark circles in the crow's eyes that looked like a cycle of time, which had the same eyeball structure as the crows he had seen before.

What did it have to do with the crow that had helped them and was eaten by the birds?

"I'm a raven." The pitch-black raven bird folded its wings and saluted them. "It's the raven's messenger. I came to change that boring tea party. The pigeon observes the whole world, so I can only escape to the place where it has no time to pay attention." The old future."

But humans don't trust it. It should be said that these humans don't trust any birds: "What evidence do you have to prove that you are the messenger of the crow?"

"Prove my identity?"

The raven didn't seem to believe it was being asked, but it calmly said in its emotionless voice: "I have flown over the sea and guided sailors to measure the distance between the sea and the ocean. I have also drawn the sword in the stone, Fight only for the pleadings of justice. I have circled the tall towers of empires that overthrow me, and in the good old days have flown to the gallows where the curse lies hidden. The chalice of desire is my nest, bird No bird in the yard can replace me."

"But the vulture said it ate the crow."

"There is no way to kill us with conventional means," Raven said. "Crows have also eaten pigeons. It's just a way for birds to express their anger."

"I prove that the fact that it can't be killed is true, that little pigeon can't be killed anyway." Bai Lan said with a smile, his smile looked too sweet and greasy compared with Takeshi Yamamoto who was also smiling on the other side.

Takeshi Yamamoto seemed to be curiously asking: "Then what would be the unconventional means?"

Facing the threat, Raven didn't show any emotional changes.Death is nothing to it.

It just said flatly, "That Earthling will tell you this in the future."

Earthling?

Reborn said the name blankly: "Gakafis."

He looked at the raven emotionally, and then asked: "Is there a connection between the bird garden and Gakafis?"

"We should also observe the earth, but the first group of earthlings found the cornerstone of the world and blocked our observation." The raven narrowed its weird eyes, and its wings revealed the white skeleton inside for a moment, "this It is also the reason why Gezi wants to prevent Lin Yu from relying on you."

Kurom looked at it silently: "... If you are a bird, you must know why the pigeons are targeting Ayu. Why?"

Why is the pigeon so obsessed with Yu Komori?

"The crow told you the answer."

"... Ah Yu is the protagonist it chooses?" This is the secret that the crow told them, the truth that only the viewers knew at the beginning.

The world is the stage chosen by the pigeons, and the drama of happiness will be staged on the stage, and Yu Komori is the protagonist chosen by the pigeons to star in the drama of happiness.The director is Pigeon, and the screenwriter is also Pigeon. This is its drama.

"But why? Why does it have to be Ah Yu? There are so many people, why do you have to choose Ah Yu as this... the protagonist?"

"Because—it's Lin Yu's own fault." Raven turned his head, "The pigeon found Lin Yu in the ruins of a world. As you have seen before, it is a world without a future."

After the end of the world, this world will cease to exist.

In other words, her hometown, the home she wanted to return to, has long since disappeared.She can't go back, because there is no place to go back.

"We don't know how the pigeon found Lin Yu, but the pigeon said that when it first saw Lin Yu, it found Lin Yu who woke up under two human corpses. Maybe a miracle really happened to her. She is the one The last survivor in a barren world."

Raven's tone was not ups and downs, just stating the facts that have happened, "And, what's even more incredible is—"Even after suffering a desperate experience, Lin Yu quickly found hope after regaining his composure, which was enough to ignite The hope of that broken world.'”

"This is the original words of the pigeon. It thinks that Lin Yu is a gift from that world, and wants to bring Lin Yu into the bird's garden. But she rejected the pigeon's invitation to take her away, but wants to stay in her own world," said Raven.

……

"I want to find other survivors." The girl with tears and blood scabs on her face said so firmly, "Although I always like to escape and don't like to take responsibility, I still want to escape at this time. Being a deserter—I'm not so timid yet. I'm going to stay, find other survivors, and try to survive."

The soft petals of the sunflower bloom and stretch in layers along the direction of the sun, as if yearning for the sun and virtualizing itself into the shape of the sun, rooted in the soil, when there is no sun, it will guide those living in the dark where the sun once rose.

The arrogant god has never found such a bright flower.

"—what if you don't find it?"

"That's okay."

Facing God's questioning, the girl raised a bright smile that could not be watched.

"Even if I try my best and can't find a miracle, please let me fall with my world."

……

The emotional fluctuations of the human beings in front of them have exceeded the limit, but the raven didn't realize it, as if it was a programmed robot, it said flatly: "This is the beginning of Lin Yu's bad luck."

For observers, for this group of birds who take pleasure in playing with despair, Lin Yu's words unlocked the key to Pandora——

She let the pigeons have their own emotions for the first time.

It felt that it fell in love with this sunflower.

Love makes the observer who has witnessed countless despairs curious, it stretches out its wings of interference from the observation position, and wants to see if her despair will be more interesting—beyond all previous despair aggregates, it wants to see what she is going through Whether it can still bloom brilliant flowers from the abyss of collapse after reading the script it created by itself.

"How much will it take to destroy the flowers that follow the sun?"

"Pigeons are incredibly curious."

with love?

No.The pigeon rejected Nightingale's suggestion, and the news that the incubators had played off human love spread to countless parallel universes. They were observers, and they didn't want to witness the birth of new concepts like the incubators for no reason.

They didn't know what the pigeon had chosen, and when they found out, Lin Yu had already become the protagonist of the drama.

"However, the recent story is too boring, so in order to continue the tea party in the bird's garden, the pigeon gave Lin Yu a gift to push the drama to a climax."

"What is it?"

Raven said: "Don't you know?"

"...that set of Tarot cards." Prisoner Hayato spit out the word coldly.

They got all the information about divination from the fortune teller, but she didn't have the memory of giving Tarot cards.

"Yes." The raven lowered its head, and its beak looked like a smile from the top down, but it still didn't rise and fall, "That deck of Tarot cards—really no Thinking of the choice, the pigeon can actually regard this ability as a gift to her—" Its body trembled for a while, just like a human's reaction to suppressing laughter to the extreme.

"I'm so sorry—quack quack quack—" the raven laughed loudly, "I couldn't bear it anymore, the dove actually gave her that ability—it's a stupid bird, did it really fall in love with sunflowers? huh?—quack quack quack quack—!”

Along with the muzzle aimed at it, there was an icy voice: "What the hell is that?"

"Our ability to observe." Raven looked back at the muzzle of the gun with a smile. Even though the flame of death, a power derived from human consciousness, could hurt it, it was not afraid of this weapon that would not kill it.

After laughing, the raven suddenly broke away from the robot-like state, and it began to resemble the crow they first saw, with a high-pitched and full voice, and it seemed that it would have a Pavarotti-style high-pitched voice anytime and anywhere.

Perhaps they were originally the same raven bird, born in the shell of a raven to avoid pigeons.

"Oh, what a mistake, it's just that our ability to observe is not accurate enough. Please allow me to explain it again in detail, the protagonists of the world." The raven folded its wings, and the raven's blue feathers seemed to shimmer in the refraction of light. Shimmering scales.It seems to be very concerned about this slight difference, more rigorous than the pigeon, like a beginner who is still learning how to simulate humans.

"The ability she obtained is to observe the tragic despair in countless futures. To put it in detail, it is to glimpse the death of others that cannot be changed, but because she only observes, she can only repeatedly realize her own powerlessness." Speaking of this, Yaniao can't help It sighed a long time, but it didn't pity others or pigeons for it, it only sighed that human beings are really fragile.

Despair, a toy in their hands, can easily destroy the fragile hearts of human beings, but their feelings are so inconceivably powerful that this strange contrast is really unbelievable.

It was quiet all around.

"..."

The boy's fists were clenched tightly, and he didn't even notice that his nails pierced his skin.

In fact, Sawada Tsunayoshi is not a cruel person, which was confirmed by many people at the beginning.

And when it comes to becoming a mafia, no matter what kind of enemy it is, as long as his companions are not injured by it, Tsunayoshi Sawada will try his best to choose the most suitable and most leeway way to deal with him. Unless it is necessary, he almost rarely wants to " Kill everything, cut grass and roots” to achieve results.

He can't be called kind, just... naive?His fellow seniors were always told that along with him, and their innocence was a strange thing in the world of the Mafia.Sawada Tsunayoshi understands, but has not changed for so many years.

However, at this moment, at this moment, he rarely had the idea of ​​cleaning the bird garden - a fire is the best, no matter what kind of bird is afraid of fire and sharp knives - he took a deep breath For a moment, he stabilized his precarious sanity.

The smiles on Takeshi Yamamoto's face were all broken, and his expressionless and gloomy expression was sharper than the long knife on his back; Hayato Gakuji clenched his teeth, and his anger was swallowed into his eyes, looking like he wanted to take the bomb first Get rid of the bird in front of you, and blow up the bird garden.Sasakawa Ryohei just frowned, obviously already angry.

Illusionist——one has a smile that is not a smile, and the emotion is difficult to distinguish. The other hides the real emotion under the illusion, and maintains a gentle smile on the surface as if it is out of the situation.

The raven smiled slightly. It turned out that the pigeons were no smarter than the hatchlings.The result of trying to use human emotions in vain will always be swallowed up by human emotions that are more terrifying than the sea and nature, and they will suffer the consequences.

Avoiding crowds, Hibari Kyouya cast a cold glance at them from a distance.

"How to solve it?" He simply asked Raven.

"Taking the cards from Lin Yu's side can prevent her from actively observing, and that deck of cards will attract her to divination. Before the current Lin Yu went to the past, she had predicted the omen of death countless times, but she didn't say a word. Fatally chose to remain silent." It's really strange, Raven's words seem to be deliberately provoking them - Lin Yu doesn't seem to trust you.It hints quietly.

Liudao Mu narrowed his eyes, and he noticed Raven's avoidance of the most important thing: "Kufufufu...it's so easy to just take away the cards? I don't believe that you can kindly give her the opportunity to choose whether to use her ability or not."

The raven covered its mouth with its wings, and it opened its beak and gave two weird laughs.

"I really want to help you, but unfortunately, you have no way to prevent Lin Yu from passively seeing despair." It said, "Even if Lin Yu is incapable, he still knows the death he saw for the first time."

"Well, well! Well, Mr. Raven, let me explain this to everyone! I haven't said why I will help Raven to bring you to the future, have I?" Bai Lan, who had been listening quietly, put his hands on Du On the back of the crow, he looked at them with a smile, "—— Xiaoyu and I are close companions who talk about everything, and I promise to help her defeat the pigeons. I heard about this from Xiaoyu. , so the authenticity must be 100%.”

He paused a few times before speaking, and his tone was sweeter than the cotton candy on the table.

Sawada Tsunayoshi just watched him calmly, waiting for his next words.He seemed to have regained his composure from his anger long ago, and his calm now seemed a little chillingly indifferent.

Bai Lan's smile gradually deepened, he still understood Gang Ji-jun's emotional changes, and when he was extremely angry, he would become calm and ruthless like never before.As for the others, they would remain silent when they saw that Tsuna Ji-kun did not speak.

"Let's think about it—if the pigeon hadn't done anything, it would have happened six years later." He suppressed his frivolous smile.

"In Yokohama, Japan, a low-level member of the port mafia died with the name Sakunosuke Oda."

Hibari Yasuya said coldly: "The bottom member of the port mafia, Oda Sakunosuke, was sent by Mori Ogai to solve Mimic, Mimic was destroyed, Oda Sakunosuke died, and the port mafia got the permission of the Yokohama Supernatural Secret Service Division to open the business." certificate."

Bai Lan stopped for a moment, and looked at him pretending to be surprised: "Didn't you think Mr. Yunque is also a control freak?"

The Fengji Consortium and the Japanese branch of Pengo Lie each have a branch on the surface, but in fact they are all in charge of Yunshu Hibari Kyoya who lives in Japan. The families who are a little closer know this relationship, and he will know what happened This is normal, but the problem is that even the part of the ability to open the license--

"Well, speaking of this, I also remembered. Osamu Dazai, the former cadre of the port mafia, defected after this incident."

Takeshi Yamamoto interjected. As Yushou who once supported the port mafia of the alliance family with Yunshou, he also seemed to be aware of this old story.

"But what does that have to do with Ayu?"

Although they did have oversights, it is a fact that Komori never left Binsheng after they left for Italy.The death of a low-level member of the Mafia should have nothing to do with her.

"Of course it's very relevant. The relationship is unprecedented." Bai Lan said, "The ability given to her by the pigeons allows her to see the death of Oda Sakunosuke in countless parallel worlds. She thinks she knows but still can only watch him go The death was her fault, and thus the immense self-blame. And in the next, a succession of new hopeless futures that she could not resist appearing in sudden moments anytime and anywhere, she went down the same path as the one you all went through. way."

"... the same road?" Colum couldn't believe it. She was in a daze for a moment, and asked softly, almost to the point of death, wanting to confirm that it was not her own hallucination. lucky.

"She chose death again."

There was no smile in Bai Lan's smiling eyes.

"Only this time, the pigeon didn't choose to restart the entire timeline. It kept dragging the time back to before the incident happened after Xiaoyu chose to leave, preventing her from really dying, and returning the memory of the doomsday to Xiaoyu. I lost her." He said, "So, Xiaoyu came to me, hoping that I could help her regain her own death from the hands of the pigeons—that's why she went to the past."

She wants to kill her past self in order to kill her present self.

This was the only way she could think of against the pigeons to prevent her death.

And Bai Lan helped her, allowing her to have a short time to exist at the same time as her past self in an instant.

That's it - the past Komori Yu was wished dead by his future self.

"Why did she choose you?" Hayato finally couldn't help asking.

But Bai Lan just smiled and blinked innocently: "I don't know either, maybe Xiao Yu thinks I can be more dependable than you, and she has nothing to say to me."

"you……!"

The raven quacked, as if it was about to laugh, but when it saw other people looking over, it covered its mouth, as if it was ashamed after learning about human faux pas.

"I'm really sorry to interrupt your conversation, I really feel very guilty, but I have to say, the pigeon did not choose to restart the timeline..." It's 'ashamed' to cover the distorted smiling face, "Because it They are forcing Lin Yu to join us voluntarily—”

"to join you guys?"

"Join the Bird Garden and become the new bird."

The raven's sharp beak pulled out a strange smile. It folded its wings and stretched its neck towards the top of its head, as if it was listening to the voices outside. At this time, there were welcome songs in the courtyard that they couldn't hear. The bird The children sang for the newcomers, and the long-lost song of the birds was played amidst the fragrance of the roses.

Just when the people from the past arrived, the desperate Lin Yu gave up struggling.

These pathetic people talk, question doubts, but the person they want to save takes the dove's wings at the same time, and at the invitation of the birds, steps into the bird garden that has been waiting for her for a long time.

Bai Lan pressed his ear with one hand. It seemed that someone who was not here reported to him the news outside this place. The smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and then he looked up at the raven as if observing a dead body.

"Xiaoyu is gone," he said.

"At this time, it is irreparable, there is no more Lin Yu, and the blue bird, which symbolizes happiness and ideals, is born."

The raven no longer rattles violently, and the ending of a happy drama is always not too grand.It is like human beings sighing, mourning and singing.

"It's time to go back to the past. The chance to change this boring ending only exists in the past with infinite possibilities."

Bai Lan said in silence: "You have hidden a lot of things from me, you claim to be a sincere Lord Raven." He seemed to be lifeless, but Raven saw his ups and downs of emotions, the kind of passionate, burning, and irritating. It trembles with human emotion.

Raven's purpose was clearly revealed at this time, it has always been aware of what happened at the same time, but it did not remind or prevent it.It never thought of helping the current Bai Lan and Lin Yu—the people who belonged to the past went back to the past, and naturally they could prevent Komori Yu from collapsing before it happened. From the beginning to the end, all it wanted to see was for them to The determination to save.

It is for this reason that it chooses to leave the audience's seat.

"The protagonist of the drama gave up the fight, and the stage play with puppets is always boring. I just want to make the drama more interesting——" Raven was almost surrounded by the violent ups and downs of human emotions, and it was so excited that the feathers at the end of it spread into a fan shape.It is also a bird, and birds are all the same.

Bailan's subordinates are still reporting the situation to him. They have searched all over Mirufiore but have not found any trace of Yu Komori. Except for the note left in her room, there is only a white feather fluttering between the window lattices suggesting that Unwelcome guests once broke into this place and took something away.

He received the photo of the note sent by his subordinates from the screen with a blank face, and clicked on the big picture of the photo. He seemed to be in a hurry when writing, with messy handwriting, and some pens were light and shapeless.

"...

……

I'm sorry, Mr. Bai Lan, although I promised to help you defeat the pigeons and become a new god, but unfortunately I still hurt you, maybe my existence in this world was a mistake, I only hope that the world can repair my injustice after I leave The trajectory disturbed by the existence of the person will bring everything back on track.A person like me is still a hopeless coward after two decades. Now that I think about it, if I don’t know you, maybe I won’t hurt you.

... At the end, it's rare to say the truth - your game playing skills are really bad, Earth Online is not a game like Contra, where you can only win or lose, Mr. Bai Lan, who even lost to me in Contra, still works hard Exercise your own operation!Earth Online does not support players other than humans!Please think about this player status, which is a rare qualification that I don't even have to win against you, so don't give up easily!Even if I don't see it again, I will be very jealous!

I don't seem to have time to say anything else... Then goodbye, I am very grateful to meet you at the last time.Please tell Ganga and the others, I really don't regret coming to Bingsheng.

... "

The content of the note is very short, only a few lines.Bai Lan didn't look up for a long time.

You're so cunning that you can't even say a word of blame.

"..."

How can you be so cunning?

bad girl.

"Add me to your plan, Tsunayoshi-kun." Bai Lan looked up at Sawada Tsunayoshi, his frivolity was swept away, "Becoming a new god, how can it be compared to snatching the world from the hands of gods?" -"

"More challenging."

His tone was like the harshest wind in winter.

The author has something to say:

The next chapter, the final intermission before the drama ends.

I went to see a firework, and it was a little late.
