Holy patriarchal tool man

Chapter 72 One Day of the Tool Man

Gojo Satoru was almost instantly rejoiced, he suddenly sat up from the ground, yes, from the ground.

The residual sequelae of the dream did not affect him. If it is an ordinary person, after experiencing such a scene, his head will definitely be dizzy. Although the information in the dream is very little, the person who experiences the dream will have a disproportionate feeling. Feeling — that is the exhausting feeling that comes with flooding your brain with so much information.

If Gojo Satoru was an ordinary person, he would not be as unresponsive as he is now. Fortunately, he is the master of Six Eyes, and he has long been used to the feeling of massive information flooding into his brain.

He looked around and found that he was still in Hiiragi Eiji's office in the high school.

It was also at this moment that his slightly confused consciousness completely came back, and he clearly realized that he had awakened from the dream.

And the three first-year students were standing next to the window of Eiji Hiiragi's office. After seeing Gojo Satoru wake up, the three of them all showed surprise expressions on their faces. The expression, the look of ecstasy is beyond words.

Gojo Satoru realized that he and Eiji were trapped in this barrier.

But... Gojo Satoru was the only one left in the office, and Eiji had disappeared.

Gojo Satoru moved his body and found himself terribly stiff.

... This feeling, how long has he been in a coma?But the strange thing is that he doesn't feel like he hasn't eaten for a long time, and he still has strength.

Gojo Satoru tried to talk to the three little ghosts outside the window, but from their expressions and shouts, Gojo Satoru understood that the sound insulation effect of the enchantment had not disappeared, and people outside could not hear his voice.He was completely sealed in this enchantment.

He subconsciously looked at the book floating in the air.

"You fulfilled his wish"

A line of words gradually emerged, and then, with a "snap", the book seemed to lose its strength and fell directly to the ground.

At the same time, the barrier covering the entire office shattered, and the three people lying on the window smashed the window without barrier protection because of excessive force, and fell into the room from the outside one after another.

"M-disappeared?!" Knotabagi Yujin sat on the ground and asked vaguely.

But Fu Heihui stood up directly, he walked quickly to Gojo Satoru and squatted beside the white hair, "Teacher, where is Teacher Eiji?"

Gojo Satoru frowned.

... Eiji, disappeared.

And he intermittently learned what happened during this period from the mouths of the three students.Yes, this time.

"...It turns out that I have been in a coma for nearly two weeks?" Gojo Satoru said in disbelief.

"So, teacher, don't you know where Eiji-sensei has gone?" When Nagasaki Yaqiangwei asked this sentence, her voice was trembling, and the expressions of the other two students also became bewildered.

Gojo Satoru raised his eyebrows, and subconsciously touched his chest, "I don't know."

At the moment when the expressions of the three students completely sank, Gojo Satoru added, "However, I can find him."

Because he and Eiji have set a bond, he can feel the position of the other party.

Just when the expressions and movements of the three students became dangerous because of his playful and indecent attitude, Gojo Satoru suddenly felt a force pulling him.

His blue eyes lit up instantly, "Eiji is calling me."

"...Are you still planning to wake up?"

As soon as Hiiragi Eiji's words fell, he felt a strange feeling, something suddenly appeared in his body, suddenly, he felt a fishy sweetness welling up in his throat, and he immediately said goodbye He spat out a mouthful of blood from his head.

...this feeling?It was like the normal cells in his body reappeared, and the Mutun cells started to erode again.

Gojo Satoru was taken aback by his sudden movement, but before he walked quickly to Hiiragi Eiji, he felt a shock in his heart, and then he stood still.

After Hiiragi Eiji spit out this mouthful of blood, he immediately found that the power in his body disappeared, and he could no longer use ninjutsu omnipotently.

what happened?Hiiragi Eiji raised his head in amazement, and at this moment, he found that the layer of gray-purple tulle in the sky began to fade slowly, and at this moment, the center of the fading seemed to be the one above the heads of him and Gojo Satoru. piece of sky.

"...What's going on here?" Eiji Hiiragi looked at the scenery in the sky in disbelief.

Could it be that……? !Is the dream coming to an end? !

After having such an idea, he immediately looked at Gojo Satoru, but found that there were many emotions on the face of this stinky brat that he couldn't understand.

His blue pupils are so bright, but a little empty, he seems to be experiencing a synchronization, and also seems to be in the process of waking up.

"...Gojo?" He softly called Gojo Satoru's name.

Gojo Satoru's impossibly bright eyes slowly returned to normal. He let out an indistinct sigh, and looked at Hiiragi Eiji with an unbelievable gaze: "...Eiji, you did it."

He fulfilled his wish.

... He guided Jie so that he would not go to perish; he slaughtered the high-level people, and let the Supernatural Secret Service and the Metropolitan Police Department take over the magic world.

All regrets and wishes were fulfilled by Eiji Hiiragi in this short period of time.

Hearing his words, Hiiragi Eiji laughed, and the boulder that had always been hanging in his heart finally fell at this moment.

Standing in front of him now is the Gojo Satoru in the real world.

He sighed in relief in his heart, this guy has finally woken up.

"...So, are we going back?" Hiiragi Eiji asked uncertainly.

Gojo Satoru also laughed, and he stretched out his hand to Hiiragi Eiji. Although his face still had that lazy look on his face, he showed seriousness: "Let's go, Eiji, I'll take you back."

Hiiragi Eiji sighed with some regret, it seemed that he had to leave now.

When he goes out, let's go to reality to meet the old friends who appeared in these dreams.

... I don't know if there will be any news about Dazai.

Thinking of this, Eiji Hiiragi stretched out his hand to Gojo Satoru.

In an instant, he felt his eyes darken.

A few seconds later, Hiiragi Eiji finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.

He seemed to have entered a weird space, which seemed to be a small space delimited by transparent square glass.

Although surrounded by transparent glass, Hiiragi Eiji couldn't see the outside scenery through these glass, he was trapped in this small space.

……what's the situation?What about Gojo Satoru?Eiji Hiiragi opened his eyes wide and looked at everything around him. His feet on the glass floor moved slowly, but he heard a fragile "click" sound from above. It will just shatter.

But at this moment, another voice came into Hiiragi Eiji's ears. Someone was walking on this unstable glass floor just like him.

As soon as Hiiragi Eiji looked up, he saw the person standing opposite him.

With black hair and a bandage around his left eye, the visitor had a complex and difficult expression on his face, but he just looked at him silently.

It is Dazai Osamu, but... not the Dazai Osamu in the dream.

Because of the Osamu Dazai in front of him, his height has suddenly increased a lot. The 16-year-old Osamu Dazai is still about 1.7 meters tall, but the Osamu Dazai in front of him is already as tall as the Osamu Dazai in the real world.

"... Dazai?" Hiiragi Eiji called out the name of the person opposite him in a daze.

What exactly is going on?Did he not leave?Is he still in the dream?But why did Osamu Dazai suddenly grow up?Because Eiji Hiiragi knows that although the age is roughly the same as that of Osamu Dazai in reality, the Osamu Dazai in front of him is obviously the one he grew up in the dream.

... not only the place where the eye bandages are wrapped, but also the breath of Dazai Osamu's whole body.

There is a subtle difference between Osamu Dazai in the dream and reality.

It is difficult for Hiiragi Eiji to describe the difference, but it does not prevent him from distinguishing them at a glance.

Countless questions came to Hiiragi Eiji's mind.

Dazai Osamu just looked at Hiiragi Eiji without saying a word.

After two years, he finally saw this person again.

In this unstable, collapsing space.

Osamu Dazai smiled slightly, his iris eyes were full of nostalgia.

Looking at the expression on his face, Hiiragi Eiji's heart that was a little bit raised also fell back. He thought that something urgent had happened, but seeing Dazai Osamu's expression, he subconsciously relaxed, and then, He spoke with a somewhat tangled tone: "... Dazai, why, did you appear here at this age?"

Hearing his question, Osamu Dazai was a little stunned.

Why... appeared at this age?How should he tell Eiji about the life of Osamu Dazai?

At the age of 15, when he got the "book", he met Eiji without warning.But he quietly disappeared when he was 16 years old.

The "book" is strangely complete again, which is the opportunity that prompts Eiji to leave, making the "book" complete.

In the next two years, Osamu Dazai never gave up using the "book" to bring Eiji to him again. Since the miracle happened once, why is it impossible for it to happen again?

But as his control over the "book" deepened, Osamu Dazai finally discovered the truth of Eiji's coming to this world——

From the very beginning, it was the future him, the him who used the power of the "book" to bring Eiji to this world. However, there was a subtle deviation in the timeline. Eiji came not to Dazai Osamu, but 15 Year-old.

It was him in the future who single-handedly brought up Eiji's arrival, but he in the future would never see Eiji.

If he at this moment gave up his plan to bring Eiji to this world, then he would never meet Eiji at the age of 15. This is a time paradox, and Osamu Dazai stands at the key point of this paradox. He has The ability to break this time paradox.

As long as he gave up all his plans for the past two years, he would not have to endure the pain of the past two years.

But if he gave up his plan, the memory belonging to Eiji would be directly erased from Dazai Osamu's mind.

——Because he won't meet Eiji again at the age of 15, so naturally he won't have the memories belonging to Eiji anymore.

All he has is the memory of flipping through the main world, and he will quietly watch everything that happened in the main world in the small world, watching everything that happened between Eiji and him in the main world.

Is it to obtain short-term happiness, and the rest of my life will be immersed in the pain of loss, or should I not have it from the beginning, and just look at the happiness of others from a distance?

Whenever such a moment comes, resentment will fill my heart.

Why did he appear, why did he leave an indelible mark in his heart, and why did he leave in the end.

He met Eiji when he was 15, but lost him when he was 16. For the remaining two years, he desperately wanted to see this person again, but was told that he could only bring Eiji back to him forever. past.

...What a cruel and ironic reality.

But after knowing everything, Osamu Dazai chose the former desperately.

...After meeting someone like Eiji, even though he knew he would leave, he still wanted him to appear in his world.

Because every day is so warm and happy.

So, with what he had, he made a move. At the age of 15, he, the self who had not yet controlled the key power of the "book", "successfully" split the "book" into two, and obviously he hadn't done anything, and the remaining pages entered the main world .

Because the promoter of all this is from himself in the future.

Osamu Dazai disguised it in nature and turned it into a cursed object, because he knew that the future Eiji would come into contact with the magic world, and the magic world... was the end of his travels in this world.

Not only did he want Eiji to leave that world, but he also wanted him to avoid a cruel and merciless fate.

He sent the stand-in straw man of the small world into that world together, and gave part of the power on the broken page to the little straw man. Although this would make the power of the broken page weaker, it successfully restored Eiji. part of the power.

And that little straw man is also a locator, it is contaminated with the breath of the broken page, and the aggregation of the broken page will bring Yingsi to the small world, as long as Yingsi touches the broken page, then everything is a foregone conclusion.

Even at this moment, Osamu Dazai refused to give up, even if it was only a possibility of one in ten thousand, one in ten thousand, one in billion, he didn't want to give up, he worked hard to make his plan perfect, Let Hiiragi Eiji not have any "sequelae" of entering the parallel world, so he wants Eiji to think that all this is just a dream, and he can wake up when the dream is over.

It doesn't matter how long this dream is, as long as it is a dream, it will end one day, and the dream is his means to numb Eiji's senses.

He knew that there was a kind of terrifying cell in Eiji's body, which was constantly eating away at Eiji's body, so before Eiji entered this world, he used the power of the book to extract all the normal cells in Eiji's body, and placed them in the residual In Page's dream, the remaining normal cells gave birth to a tiny soul, which would fall into Page's dream and sleep forever.But Eiji, who is full of that kind of terrorist cells, will not suffer from erosion anymore. He can use his power at will in the parallel world, and there is no cell balance problem in his body that threatens his life, because there is no normal Cells, those extremely aggressive cells will stop invading.

But he still failed.

Originally, this was supposed to be the story of Eiji alone, but he stumbled into a guy named Gojo Satoru halfway through.

He broke into the trap carefully arranged by Osamu Dazai. Because of him, Eiji's dream was changed, and the broken page disguised as a curse was activated because of the second person's intrusion.

Therefore, it was not only Gojo Satoru who finally woke up from the dream, but also the soul born from the normal cells in Eiji's body.

The divided souls merged again, normal cells returned to Eiji's body, and the balance of his body was instantly broken.

And Wujo Satoru's consciousness followed the bondage of the two, and brought the broken pages all the way to his own body in the parallel world.

The "book" is thus complete.The gray-purple gauze mist that symbolizes the precariousness of the world has since dissipated. After this ordeal, the power of the "book" has been strengthened again, and its cohesion has become stronger. After this point of time, the "book" will no longer exist. cannot be divided.

This represented the failure of Osamu Dazai's plan.

In the future, he will no longer be able to use the previous method to bring Eiji to this world.Once he chooses to leave, Osamu Dazai will never be able to see him again for the rest of his life.

Now, he finally met Eiji.

But this is another farewell.

Before waiting for Dazai Osamu's answer, Hiiragi Eiji was puzzled for a moment, and then he felt a huge gravitational force pulling him into the air.

He could no longer step on the ground made of glass, but his whole body soared into the air uncontrollably. While being surprised, he found that his hands began to become transparent.

"...Is this, am I leaving?" Hiiragi Eiji stared at his hands and said in shock.

Finally, the second person in this space spoke at this moment: "Do you want to leave?"

Eiji Hiiragi stopped looking at his hands, and looked at Osamu Dazai with some puzzlement, as if he was a little puzzled by Osamu Dazai's question.

...That's right, in Eiji's eyes, this is just a dream, and if it's a dream, there will always be a moment of waking up.

And now, it's time to wake up.

Thinking of this, Osamu Dazai slowly turned his back, obviously wanting to see Eiji Hiiragi again at the last moment, but Osamu Dazai has not yet prepared himself for the psychological construction of watching him leave.

"Hope this turns out to be a good dream for you."

A strange feeling came to Eiji Hiiragi's heart, what does the current scene represent?

Bad thoughts began to gather in his mind, just when a certain answer was about to come to his mind——

"Eiji—!" Suddenly, Osamu Dazai couldn't bear it, and he called Hiiragi Eiji's name loudly.

Hiiragi Eiji looked at him, but the bandaged boy did not turn his head, but stubbornly turned his back to his flying figure.

"Even... if you return to your reality, you will die, do you still have to go?"

Why don't you want to sleep forever in this world?There is almost everything here that Hiiragi Eiji didn't have in reality, power, power, all the people he wants to protect are on the right track, and those who haven't appeared will appear one by one in the future, why not stay here?

Why is such a beautiful dream still abandoned?

Obviously that world... is full of dangers, and obviously as long as he goes back, he will die.

Even so, do you have to 'wake up'?

Hearing these ominous words, Hiiragi Eiji was slightly taken aback, then he laughed, "But I will survive."

He will definitely survive, he already has a new bond, he has once again established a connection with the world, he is no longer a flying catkin that will be blown away by the wind, he has many road signs along the way.

"...Really? Is this your choice?"

There was a brief silence in the space.

Osamu Dazai knew that at this moment, his plan had completely ended in failure. He failed to do anything, and the great despair instantly overwhelmed him.

At this moment, Osamu Dazai suddenly had the feeling that his hair was being brushed again. He looked back subconsciously, and found that the person who was flying in the air stretched out his hand to him, trying to grab him.

Osamu Dazai was slightly taken aback, and he turned around slowly.

He clearly didn't want to watch Eiji leave, but after he made a movement to break this thought, his body was no longer under control.

After seeing him facing himself, Hiiragi Eiji breathed a sigh of relief, he smiled a little embarrassedly, "I just... um... I don't know why, but I just feel that I must catch you."

Osamu Dazai suddenly opened his eyes wide, and then lowered them.

Hiiragi Eiji felt that the pulling sensation of his body became bigger again, and his hand became more transparent. He knew that he was about to leave here.

"... Dazai!" he yelled.

Osamu Dazai looked at him, and for some reason, there was a misty feeling in his exposed left eyes, but the dense water vapor soon dissipated.

"...What?" The bandaged boy asked him in the same voice as usual.

"After waking up from this dream, will you think of all this?" Hiiragi Eiji asked anxiously.

Dazai watched him silently for a while.

Yes, in Eiji's eyes, everything here is a real dream.That's what he decided from the start.

But now, he started to regret it.

...He is real, he is not the Osamu Dazai that Eiji is familiar with, he is the Osamu Dazai in the flat world, and he also wants...to be known by Eiji as his true identity.

He had observed Osamu Dazai in the main world countless times, and he hated that guy.

Obviously as dark and indifferent as him, but at the critical moment, he used means to leave a deep impression on Eiji's heart.

Why let go?Why should Eiji return to the bright world?Why not go all in on capturing the Port Mafia?

So he opened his mouth, only to find that he hadn't made any sound at all.

...It turned out that it was not a means.

At this moment, Osamu Dazai finally realized.That guy just wants Eiji to live in an environment that suits him best.

Like...just like him now.

Eiji would be sad if he knew the reality of this world.Sad because of him, sad because I regarded this place as a dream, sad because I told him the dream theory.

...But that's not what Osamu Dazai wanted.

He stared blankly at the light-haired young man in front of him.

……Why?What he sneered the most was the sentence he said in the main world - he learned to guard.

But now, why does my own behavior highly overlap with the one in the main world?

How did he become such a selfless person?

But when his field of vision was full of Hiiragi Eiji's figure, he realized later that it was the person in front of him who subtly taught him how to protect others with his own actions.

"This is your dream, Eiji, only you will remember everything that happened here." Osamu Dazai said softly, "When you wake up, the dream will be over."

...he will remember until the end of his life.

If it was Eiji, then he would definitely do the same.

...He can be regarded as a child who has inherited Eiji's philosophy to a certain extent, right?

After hearing his answer, Hiiragi Eiji looked a little disappointed.

……Do not be sad.He will remember.

But in the end, Eiji Hiiragi still laughed, "It's okay, I can remember it alone. I am very happy to live with you in this dream."

Osamu Dazai's hand twitched slightly, and finally, he managed to show the most ordinary smile, "Me too."

Don't go, don't leave.

Hiiragi Eiji slowly closed his eyes, and his figure collapsed instantly.

Osamu Dazai stared in the direction he was leaving.

You are the gorgeous firework in summer, fleeting, just appearing for a moment, it illuminates the night sky.

Let him immerse himself in those magnificent memories for the rest of his life.

Live, Eiji.

Must survive.

"... Teacher! Teacher Eiji!"

Hiiragi Eiji was awakened from sleep by a series of shouts, his consciousness began to sink, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and finally slowly opened his eyes.

In the hazy vision, there are a few familiar faces very close to him, and everyone's expressions are worried and panicked.

"Don't worry... I'm fine..." Hiiragi mumbled subconsciously, his mind was still groggy at the moment, but his first reaction was still that he didn't want others to worry about him.

He felt someone grab his shoulders and make him sit up.

Perhaps it was the sequelae of the dream, he felt that his body was very weak, the feeling of peak power in the dream subsided, and he returned to his body that was originally sealed with power.

The surrounding voices disappeared, but everyone still looked at him nervously. Feeling that he had finally recovered a bit, Hiiragi Eiji smiled slightly, "What's wrong? Everyone is looking at me with this expression, am I awake?" ?”

As he spoke, he looked at the person who helped him to sit up, and sure enough, it was Wujo Wu who had also awakened.

Hiiragi Eiji let out a heavy sigh of relief.

He stretched out his hand and rubbed the heads of the three Hirohito Hiruhito one by one, "Okay, cheer up, Mr. Wujo and I have returned from the dream world."

After hearing his words, the three of them showed a confused look.

"...Dream? What dream?" Hiroto Hiroto asked in confusion.

Fu Heihui and Nagasaki Wild Rose also looked confused.

It was only then that Eiji Hiiragi realized that the three children didn't know these things yet, and he knocked on his head angrily, "Sorry, I've been in there for a while, and I seem to be a little confused. In short, It was me and Wujo-sensei who entered the dream world due to unknown forces."

At this moment, Gojo Satoru, who was supporting his shoulder, spoke in a surprised tone: "Dream?"

Eiji Hiiragi turned to Gojo Satoru with the same expression of surprise, "What's wrong?"

Gojo Satoru watched him for two seconds with his blue eyes, and after a while, he said, "Eiji, the place I went to is a dream, your dream. And you...you went to a parallel world."
