Chapter 33 Tower of Babel

"Come! Let us build a city, and a tower, whose top will reach to heaven, so that we may make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered across the earth." (Genesis 11:4)

The laboratory is still the same laboratory, but its controller has quietly changed.The experimenters came and went in a hurry, and everyone's faces were filled with uncontrollable anxiety and fear.Door after door opened and closed, through which someone screamed, mutilated themselves in agony, or turned into a monster without human form.Every day people try to kill themselves, or simply lose their minds and go mad.

Yukiya was asked to stay in the training room in the room, and could not go out easily.But his memory has not been interrupted, hovering in the laboratory like a ray of ghost, taking everything that happened in it into his eyes.

Maybe he didn't just wander in the lab, but their memories related to him all happened in the lab.

Natsume Soseki, who presided over the overall situation of Yokohama with all his strength, as a rare leader among Japanese supernatural beings, stood with Ryunosuke Akutagawa, the last mad dog of the Armed Detective Agency, who can tear apart special spaces and contain monsters.This fateful picture is frozen in a jump, old and new, life and death, past and future, meet at this moment and then be ignited.

"Akutagawa-kun."

"Mr. Natsume."

He seemed to want to ask something, but in the end, he could only look deeply at Ryunosuke Akutagawa, and said calmly, "I leave it to you."

He will regret, but not sigh.

"If possible, I hope that you will save yourselves for the country and the world. But... this old man understands your feelings."

"This is not a world I want to give to young people." He rubbed his cane, his eyes showed a momentary failure, even if he quickly restrained, it was like a blade of grass that had been scorched by fire, leaving deep withered marks , "I am very old, but I live behind the two disciples, I really feel ashamed of the old man."

"The future will be created by you. Whether you succeed or fail, do your best and leave no regrets."

"I will never back down." Akutagawa Ryunosuke lowered his head slightly, letting Natsume Soseki's old palm fall on his shoulder.

Hatred can only breed new hatred.In the face of natural disasters, personal power and supernatural power are so powerless and even shallow.

I will never leave here, brother, even if I die, I will die as the leader of the port mafia.I will protect this city, and Dazai-san's last wish.

...Yes, no matter what Dazai-san thinks, I am the leader now.I will never, never run away.It doesn't matter if you don't tell me the answer, because the leader is the slave of the organization, and I live and die with them. .

The leader is the slave of the organization.

"Yokohama, and the future of the world..."

"I will swear to protect you to the death."

"Mirror flower."

"Ah." The black-haired girl turned around, her face remained motionless, but her tone was slightly surprised, "You remembered my name."

He raised his head, she lowered her face, and after a while, she squatted down.

"Yukiya."

"Ah."

"You are nothing like the leader of the Central Plains."

"...It doesn't look like it?" Xingya stretched out her hand, tugged at her long orange-red hair, and touched her eyes.Quan Jinghua looked at it, then tugged it, and asked him, "Does it hurt?"

"No pain."

Quan Jinghua stretched out her hand and stroked his hair.Her sleeves fluttered, exuding a trace of Xingya's familiar fragrance. He turned his head to smell it curiously, but unfortunately the fragrance had completely dissipated, leaving only a vague, sweet fragrance.

"Red leaves..."

Her fingers tightened, messing up the hair she had just straightened out.She pursed her lips for a while, then suddenly said, "Let me cut your hair."

"Why...why, cut?"

"It will make you more like the leader of the Central Plains." Quan Jinghua stood up and stretched out her slender fingers covered with scars.Yukiya held her hand and followed her forward without any resistance.

"You, like us, have nowhere to go."

"You can...you can go..."

"Ok?"

Quan Jinghua tilted her head, wanted to say something, but stopped when she saw someone walking towards her.

"team leader."

"...Jinghua," the white-haired young man smiled reluctantly, "I am no longer the captain of the guerrillas."

"Well, I know." Izumi Kyoka nodded as if she didn't care much, looked down at Yuki who was staring at Atsushi Nakajima motionlessly, and suddenly realized something.

It turned out that this is how I remembered my name.

She smiled suddenly, and only raised the corners of her lips slightly, but she was like Tang Di lightly opening, a jade cup toppled over, and the light of new snow reflected in her clear eyes.

"Mirror flower?"

"It's nothing, are you here to find this child?"

"Well, it's time for a new test."

"Then take him there." Izumi Kyoka let go of her hand, Yukiya subconsciously took two steps forward, grabbed Atsushi Nakajima's clothes, then turned her head and looked at Izumi Kyoka in a daze.

But Quan Jinghua didn't understand what he meant.They just stared at each other for a while, before Atsushi Nakajima racked his brains to find an excuse to interrupt them, Quan Jinghua seemed to understand something, hesitantly took out a doll from his pocket, looked at it, and reluctantly handed it over. out.

"Ah," Yukiya's eyes lighted up subtly, "It's... Tiger."

"tiger."

"Don!"

"Yeah, that's him."

Yukiya, who was holding the protective doll, happily forgot what they had just done, and happily pinched it.Atsushi Nakajima looked at them, and smiled helplessly, bringing blood back to his pale cheeks.

"Goodbye, Mirror Flower."

Quan Jinghua looked at the thin metal ring around his neck, and replied softly, "Take care there."

Yukiya kept looking at the white tiger doll until it was lying in the instrument, and then reluctantly put it in Nakajima Atsushi's palm.

"Does Yuki like it?"

Atsushi Nakajima asked him, and then lay down on the instrument placed on the other side.

"Hmm." His voice echoed in the machine, appearing vague and ambiguous.

"I don't like white tigers at all." He said lightly, looking at the dark metal wall.

"...Then, do you like it, too...?"

The machine hummed sharply, and Atsushi Nakajima suddenly turned over and sat up, pulled away the thin needle protruding into the spine, and ran towards the instrument where Yukiya was.

"A supernatural reaction! It's a supernatural reaction!"

"What is this?... Is this a supernatural power?"

"No, this reading, this is..."

"Why does he have anti-power on him?!"

"No wonder we can't wake Huangba to spit... This is his own ability? Why is it like this?"

"It never happened..."

Atsushi Nakajima stood where he was. He was clearly in a laboratory with constant temperature, but it was as if someone had poured ice water on him on a cold day.

"—Akutagawa Ryunosuke!"

"What did the leader tell you?!"

"Koya...what the hell is it!"

"I can't tell you." The ferocious beast waved away the roaring white tiger, and Ryunosuke Akutagawa stood in place, watching the dense white teeth brush past him, leaving deep bone wounds and spurting bloodstains.

"...I can't tell you." He didn't dodge or avoid, letting the blood flow, as if someone was wailing in the blood.

The calm mist rippled, showing the uneasy mood of the dream master.He turned around like a headless chicken, sometimes moving forward in time, sometimes backward, and finally stopped abruptly in front of a familiar name, and looked with his head.

"Instrumentation indicated that the Atsushi Nakajima instance was alive, but he was unable to regain consciousness."

"Release the potion in the collar."

"Start the capture process."

"Do you want to start..."

A hand that was as pale as if it didn't belong to humans suddenly stretched out and pressed his shoulder.

"Why did you run out? I will take you back."

"Chest, a little, uncomfortable." Yukimi emerged from the mist, raised his face and looked back, revealing a pair of deep purple eyes, "Baihu..."

"I will bring him back."

Xingya's eyes glanced at his coat pocket unconsciously, but he didn't show anything, instead he breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh..."

They walked quietly in the passage.There is no light source, only the small emergency light is on.Yukiya walks slowly step by step with his hands behind his back, and sometimes he almost falls because of his lack of coordination.But each time, Rashomon held him up before he fell, lifted him up and stood up.

"Akutagawa-kun."

"what?"

"—Before the leader died, he met his brother."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's footsteps stopped suddenly, and Rashomon shot out in all directions, but missed.The corridor was empty, only him and Yukiya, as if the questioning he heard just now was an illusion.

"...Xuya?"

"Well?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke stood for a while, closed his eyes: "It's nothing."

They walked all the way to the end and stopped in front of an inconspicuous metal door.Akutagawa Ryunosuke scanned his fingerprint, entered the password, and pushed him into the room.

"Akutagawa."

His leaving footsteps stopped.

"Do you know... where the limit... of people... is...?"

Through the crack of the door that was not closed, an eye with a little light was exposed.

"I don't know."

"Continuously...non-stop...fighting...can you obtain...happiness?"

"No." Akutagawa Ryunosuke listened patiently to him uttering word by word, and then said indifferently, "It is the fate of human beings not to be able to protect ourselves or others, and no one can obtain true happiness .”

"Can……"

"People are cheating on each other all the time. Just like this time, I'm cheating on you too."

"……What?"

"Xingya," the young man stopped, his slightly long black hair covered his expression at this time, but Xingya took a step back in fright.

There was deep anger in his voice, making people breathless, Yukimi looked at him without blinking, even though he didn't know what happened, he was still concerned.

During the long silence, he knelt down and said in a low voice, "Run away."

Yuki opened her eyes in surprise.

"Why don't you run away?"

"Even if you don't remember anything, you should be able to escape."

"Abandon this fragile and incompetent world, abandon these human beings who cling to you like blood-sucking insects, you..."

"Akutagawa!"

Perhaps it was because no one had ever seen Yukina with such intense emotions, Akutagawa Ryunosuke was rarely stunned.The hem of the flying clothes rose and fell, and finally stopped at some awkward, stiff angle.

"Don't be afraid," he said, "it's all right."

He opens his hands.With his height, he could only hug Akutagawa Ryunosuke's waist, but he obviously didn't want to give in like this, and stared at him persistently until he bent down silently, then put his arms around his neck with a smile on his face, and squeezed hard buried in him.

"Don't say it. Trust me. I'll find it." He murmured vaguely, from an angle that Akutagawa Ryunosuke couldn't see, there was a blue-white light flashing in his raised eyes, "As long as... Just write down your wish..."
