My baby tamer can't be the leader

To be honest, I felt very strange when I was on the road. After all, Osamu Dazai has been honestly following me with his coat in his arms, which gave me the illusion that I was the one to negotiate, and he was just my little follower... …No, is there a mistake? Why does he still glance at me with aggrieved eyes from time to time? This is no longer like a little follower, it's completely like a little boy I keep? !

Especially compared to ordinary people holding the coat with one hand, this time he is holding the coat with both hands. This obviously very restrained movement coupled with that impeccably beautiful face, even knowing that this guy is just I made a mistake so I pretended to be pitiful here, and I couldn't help being in a trance for a moment.

"Why don't you... put on your coat?" I said, covering my forehead.

"But," Osamu Dazai tilted his head, frowned, and said softly in a embarrassed tone, "If I don't do this, I'm afraid I will subconsciously approach you..."

What, it's not enough for me to be attracted by the gravity of the earth, so I plan to find a second axis for myself?I'm not catnip!

"Then you should hold it." I gave up my original idea in a very articulate manner, and moved in the opposite direction to him again.

"...I will be sad?" He sighed, leaning against the car door beside him, slowly inserting his slender fingertips into the soft curly black hair, which complemented the already fair complexion at his knuckles Fades to the point of being almost transparent.

The kite eyes slowly turned out of the window, as if after thinking for a moment, he couldn't help trying to justify what he had just done, "I don't want to make excuses, but... this is Sen No, sir, that's what the old port of Mafia taught me."

He almost murmured, "Since I was 14 years old, everything I have seen is...you should firmly grasp what you want, even if it is just a negligence, it may lead to catastrophic consequences, Only plunder and loss are the main themes here, if you don’t want to fall into the latter, you have to do everything you can to seize any chance.”

"The winner takes all, the loser gets nothing."

"But for you, that shouldn't be a problem." I didn't deny his statement, "With your ability, if you want to leave here, although it may be troublesome, it's definitely not a fantasy."

"..." Osamu Dazai was silent for a moment, put down his hand, turned to me again, and lowered his eyes slightly, "At first I just... thought that the meaning of life was most likely to be found in this place closest to life and death. That’s true, but at the same time I got it, I also faced an equivalent loss.”

With rare candor, he said, "I...maybe I am an egotistical person, but what I do now is not out of my own arrogance, but if I don't do it...no one else can do it." So, Xiaoqi, as you can see, at least for a short period of time, I must carry this fate forward.”

I listened for a moment, and suddenly remembered the change in his attitude before and after our first meeting, and asked abruptly, "Is the turning point of gain and loss after our first meeting?"

"..." Osamu Dazai's pupils shrank for a moment, but after pursing his lips slightly, he finally answered me, "Yes."

"Do you think you would be better off without that turning point?"

He didn't answer my question right away, but lowered his eyes slightly, as if imagining the scene quite seriously, and said dryly, "... If I never got it from the beginning, then I must There will be no pain of loss, but if I imagine such a false future from the present point of view, it is too scary for me, even if I just think about it... I will feel afraid from the bottom of my heart .”

"Then, I think, you should think that turning point is a good thing for you?" I subconsciously wanted to reach out and pat him to comfort him, but I remembered that this guy is still on probation when I raised my hand halfway. Absolutely not to make such a bad start, so he put his hand back on his knee amidst the other party's strong regret.

"Now it seems...it is indeed." He retracted his gaze, and said softly with some hesitation, "However, if--if I hadn't met you, I might wish that I would dream more in the middle of the night. If you don’t come across such an ‘opportunity’, no, or a ‘curse’ would be more appropriate to describe it, but in that case…”

Osamu Dazai showed an obvious expression of struggle, "I don't know... such a future is really too difficult for me... If that's the case, living itself is already part of the torment."

……

In fact, in the other worlds that Osamu Dazai saw...the absence of Xia Qi is the most common situation. There are very few worlds with her existence, and even these worlds are only recently because of a certain The derailment of the world has caused the two world groups to move closer to each other, and it is a miracle that only occurs after some parts overlap.

That is a real miracle - in the endless world, the miracle of time makes them meet for the first time in another world, and at this moment it is the miracle of space that makes them meet here, even if there is only a small difference, the final result may be different very different.

And after realizing this, for the first time in his life, he even had the idea of ​​wanting to be grateful for this fate that he had always hated and questioned in the past. open each other.

After all, other worlds are proving to him that miracles are miracles precisely because of her rarity and uncertainty, and fate will only favor a few people. Even in a world where she exists, she does not necessarily have to choose "Dazai Osamu" 'No...and it was this sense of urgency to grasp the miracle that was still floating at the moment that made him lose his sense of proportion for a moment, so that he made a move that angered the other party.

But rather than pure annoyance, Osamu Dazai felt more fortunate and completely happy at this moment. After all, he knew what kind of wrong thing he had done, but even so, Xia Qi did not choose to completely abandon it. Him, doesn't this mean...he is equally important to her?It's so important that even if it's such a mistake, she's willing to give him another chance?

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that she was too obvious, Xia Qi might regret that her punishment was too light. Osamu Dazai couldn't help but swell up again, but if so, such a good mood is still After letting him get off the car, he kept a rare and pleasant demeanor when facing his subordinates, which made the subordinates, who felt that the boss didn't know what was going crazy, keep silent for fear that he might offend the other party.

……

Osamu Dazai's car was parked outside a certain port, and a small boat was parked on the shore in the distance. It was probably the place where the negotiation with the Supernatural Secret Service was held.

When he got in the car, he had already briefly told me about his arrangement this time, because he knew that Mori Ogai introduced Mimic to Yokohama in order to obtain a license for the opening of the supernatural power through the Supernatural Special Affairs Division, and if Mori Ogai wanted to To negotiate such an important transaction with the Supernatural Secret Service, he had to be present in person... Obviously, the other party represented the Japanese government after all, and it was impossible to negotiate such a transaction in person at a place like the port Mafia.

Because of this, Mori Ogai will inevitably travel secretly with a small number of trustworthy subordinates, and this is the best opportunity for Osamu Dazai to overthrow Mori Ogai. When negotiating, the location and time of the negotiation were changed, and Mori Ogai was led to the wrong place, and the other party was forced to abdicate.

But what I think more about now is not this point, but the "turning point" that Osamu Dazai said... Although he refused to say it directly, he didn't care about it, and even leaked information about it on purpose. It seems that out of some strange and awkward mentality, he didn't want him to say the key to his second life, but he wanted me to figure it out.

... To be honest, sometimes this guy's thinking is really hard for me to understand. What is he planning? ?Does this make it appear that I care about him more? ?It's still the same old saying that the more you pay, the easier it is to get stuck... In short, this little loach monster must have no good intentions!

It's just that the last word he just said was "such a future", isn't this kind of statement very subtle?But judging from his previous remarks, I feel that the future he has learned does not seem to be the only one... But, is it possible?Foretelling the future?

Moreover, I have studied the types of supernatural beings in the world in my spare time in the past. The supernatural powers related to time should undoubtedly be listed among the strongest supernatural powers, but even among the strongest known time supernatural beings, It seems that what the other party can do is to go back to the past conditionally, rather than directly 'seeing the future'.

This may not be something that humans can do with their own abilities. After all, time is so unpredictable that human beings cannot understand time creatures with their senses. Therefore, if someone has mastered that ability, he or she will be very It is possible to be banished by the self into the corner of time...

If you give an easy-to-understand example, then the normal timeline is like the progress bar at the bottom when playing a video. If there is no external intervention, it will always move forward, but the ability of time is very likely Ability to jump back to 'a clip that has already been played'.

But at the other end of the time axis, the progress bar is still walking smoothly, but the progress bar of the time line is so long, once leaving the ongoing time point, that person may never return to the 'now', only Can get lost in the endless past and future.

So... If it's not a supernatural ability, then is it related to the rumors I heard before?About the [book] that can grant all wishes?

Just as I was thinking and walking forward instinctively, at the next moment, I was awakened to the hatch door that was opened from the outside to the inside in front of me, but I suddenly felt a sense of urgency when I looked at the door in front of me. It wasn't right at all, but for a while I couldn't tell what was wrong, so I just walked into the cabin almost subconsciously.

There are not many people in the conference room in the cabin at the moment. After all, it is a secret meeting, and the two sides don’t bring many people. Since the leader of the port Mafia is here, it is obvious that the person in charge of the other party’s negotiation must be the highest level of the other party. Taneda Shanhuo, the chief of the Supernatural Secret Service Division.

It wasn't until I met the other party's eyes and felt the astonishment in the other party's eyes that I realized... where did Osamu Dazai go? !He is the person in charge of this negotiation, right? !Why am I walking in the front? ?

As a result, when I turned my head, I saw Osamu Dazai standing behind me holding his coat and scarf as obediently as at the beginning. When he noticed my gaze, he looked back at me with innocent eyes.

...What, I told him not to follow me! !This guy deliberately made me a target of public criticism, so that I can never go back on my word! !I can't have this cat anymore, let's throw it away! !
