Home from scratch in another world

In the tallest building in Yokohama, Shimu before the action was caught by an unexpected situation.

This is the sudden situation of the "Script Killing Contest".

After several meetings, Deep Space decided to broadcast every "reasoning contest" live, and cut the excellent and high-energy links into a "reasoning variety show".

However, script killing is considered a niche game, and the rules and models are also very scattered. Since Deep Space is going to play a game, it must set perfect rules and templates, and also promote "script killing" to the world.

Now at this point, even the cooperating TV stations, directors, editors, etc. have been arranged, but many invited people can't be there!

Shi Meng couldn't believe it, especially when she contacted several people in person, and they all said good things at the time, why didn't they come all of a sudden?

She repeatedly confirmed: "Mr. Conan Doyle really can't come?"

The person in charge of the art management team replied: "Mr. Doyle said he couldn't resist the leader. Since he was recommended to the top [-], the promotional competition will not come."

"Where's Ms. Agatha Christie?" Shi Meng asked about the big bosses who have sprung up in the villa area recently.

"She said that her subordinates used more than a dozen methods to prevent her from going abroad, and the top leaders can't do without her. Next time."

Shi Meng: ...

What happened to these two Englishmen?

"What did {Easy Chair Detective} say?"

"She rejected the live broadcast format, didn't want to show up for throwing, and complained that we allowed avatars to play games."

There are also contestants who are introverted and don't like to show their true faces. Shi Meng has no choice but to put this "virtual image" in the memo and mention a few names——

"Mr. William Collins?"

"Ellery Queen?"

"..."

"What did Teacher Henggou say?"

"He said that his secret room is half the credit of his best friend. This time, he must really work hard by himself and prepare for qualifying."

"……All right."

Shimeng is a little bit stuck, the promotional competition scores are not included in the "ranking", its function is only publicity, and the outstanding players of the reasoning department obviously don't care about popularity or popularity, but don't want to be exposed in front of others.

The 6 big players she imagined played in ranking, but only Luanpo and Poe could participate... It was because of her face.

Could it really be that she can only use her face to beg good players to participate?

Shi Meng silently looked around for a week... In fact, there are quite a lot of smart people in this world, and there are many around her, so it doesn't necessarily need to show face——

She appointed on the spot: "Shibusawa, you also go to participate!"

Shibusawa Tatsuhiko looked up from the drawing: "Follow the angel's instructions."

Shi Meng ignored his address, there is another person in this office that she can arrange, just thought——

Seeing the cold eyes of her little friend, she asked humbly, "Pedestrian, do you want to go?"

"please."

Shi Meng secretly gave him a pleading look.

Ayatsuji pedestrian replied in the next second: "Yes."

Shi Meng heaved a sigh of relief, but there were still two people left. Among the smart people around her, there were only two left...she could also arrange it.

Maybe.

……

Shi Meng decided to try the first candidate first, and happened to be planning to catch him too.

But before asking {Xiao Xing} to locate Osamu Dazai, she unexpectedly saw the black coat hanging on the tree on the way she had to pass, and hurried to save him.

"Ouch!"

He fell to the ground like he was touching porcelain at the gate of the community for the first time, patted the ashes and got up, without saying hello or speaking, watching her silently.

Shi Meng was a little strange to him, he took a closer look, and it seemed that a lot of vicissitudes... Could it be that it has been too long since we saw each other?I always feel that Dazai is hiding behind the boundary line again.

The clothes are not as exquisite as before, only the bandages remain the same. She has always suspected that Dazai is a delicate boy in his heart, and he usually has to get up an hour earlier to wear the bandages.

But Shimeng tried hard to hold back the words that he wanted to scold, what Sakaguchi-kun said made sense, he has already worked very hard to live in this world

, she had to accept the way he chose.

"Dazai, have you had dinner yet?" Seeing him silently observing, like a black cat poking its head out of the darkness, Shi Meng whispered softly.

"Eh, not yet."

"There is a new crab porridge restaurant in Yokohama's Chinatown. I tried it with my children last week. How about going together?"

"Miss Shi Meng wants to invite me to dinner?" His voice dragged on, "If I refuse...Okay, let's go to the crab porridge shop."

Clenching her fists, Shi Meng nodded in satisfaction.

……

In the crab porridge restaurant that just opened, the richest man in the world brought a mysterious man into the box in a low-key way, and signaled the waitress not to scream. He saw the owner of the restaurant again. many minutes.

She turned around and saw that Dazai did not commit suicide and did not run away. The plan of Xindao 21.0 can be implemented today.

Osamu Dazai looked around. The decoration was simple and elegant, mainly in Chinese style red. The screen standing next to it was a picture of mountains and flowing water. It had an elegant and atmospheric aesthetic, but the sound insulation effect was not very good.

The chatter in the hall was vague and dry, and the aroma of porridge could be smelled in the air.

A place full of fireworks is indeed Miss Shi Meng's favorite.

The two of them haven't looked at each other once, or "Osamu Dazai" avoided her eyes, and he took the initiative to show up in order to prevent being located and called out by the virtual AI.

Spirit is indeed a very troublesome ability, but fortunately it is separated from Miss Shimeng.

So she is really easy to cheat——

"Have you encountered any trouble recently?" When Shi dreamed of Mori Ogai, he suddenly became serious, "Did Mori Ogai make you work overtime? How long has this been the case?"

— only in some places particularly sharp.

Dazai smiled, thinking that she didn't notice that the bandage was wrapped around the other eye, but instead saw that he had done a lot of work...

"Yeah, I do as much work as Mr. Mori, maybe a little more." He complained, "But it's still my choice!"

Shi Meng swallowed back the words of "scraping the port mafia" and told herself that she must respect Dazai's choice!

Working overtime may be due to suicide during the day and not being able to complete the work. The overtime work may be due to a large decrease in Hong Kong talent. The choice may be because Dazai is preparing for a promotion and salary increase...

It shouldn't be possible, what happened to him recently?

The crab porridge was served by the boss himself at this time, and the meal was delivered very quickly, and they exchanged a few words.Before leaving, the flower planter glanced at Osamu Dazai several times with what he thought was a hidden look. At first, he thought it was some pretty boy, but when he saw his pitiful appearance with bandages on, he thought to himself, could it be Pengci, or Miss Uzuki likes this one?

Dazai Osamu's meaningful smile was met by the boss's self-confident eyes, and this smile made the boss think about something amazing, so he went out full of gossip.

Shimeng didn't pay that much attention, thinking about how to carry out the 21.0 plan, she picked up the ladle, first filled a large bowl for Osamu Dazai, and then filled it for herself.

The previous 20-odd failures gave her a lot of experience, and she thought she had figured out Osamu Dazai.

Sakaguchi-kun thinks that they should respond when Dazai calls for help, and respect his choice even if Dazai succeeds in committing suicide;

Shimeng, with her excellent EQ, senses that Dazai is sending out "distress signals" all the time, although this signal is an "SOS" that is not seen in the backcountry.

But in that white mist world, she saw it!

So, after finishing a bowl of porridge, she asked normally: "How does it taste?"

"tastes good."

"As long as you like it, I sometimes feel that it is a great joy in life to be able to drink such delicious porridge."

"Indeed." Osamu Dazai interrupted with a refreshing smile.

As he said this, the height of the bowl dropped only a little, and his tone was exaggerated: "Seeing that Miss Shi Meng drank so satisfyingly, I'm more than half full."

Shimeng was interrupted by the second sentence she should have said, and felt that Osamu Dazai was really the most challenging man she had ever met in her life, so she stubbornly took the next step.

"And as long as we are alive, we can often drink delicious porridge, not only delicious food, but also many things around us. How about coming here tomorrow to try the crab roe buns made by the boss himself? It tastes very good, we can come together in the morning Eat, I will drive the sky train to pick you up. Yokohama in the early morning is so beautiful... A few days ago, I took the children by car to see the sound of the sea in the morning sun. You can also live with us in the mobile manor, and you can climb the mountains at night It doesn’t matter if you can’t see the star coming over, it will still come to see you tomorrow... We can always get the next second that is completely unknown. Of course, Dazai, you are so good that you can predict tomorrow’s weather, but you can’t help it Guess who will show up next."

"Who's next is always unknown."

"Really? I shouldn't be able to predict tomorrow's weather. I don't pay much attention to it. My dwarf subordinates will broadcast it to me." Osamu Dazai always had a frivolous tone, "The world in Miss Shimeng's eyes is so beautiful. I'm afraid I won't be able to see it."

"Dazai!"

He immediately became obedient, but he didn't let go of his expression after a while, as if he didn't care about it.

"But I don't think the same way as you do. Miss Shimeng, are people really unknown? In fact, many people are easier to predict than the weather in my eyes. At least the weather is much longer than humans. You see, the unknown human In the world, it is only a few 10 years, but the stars in the universe are as long as billions of years. Compared with the universe, is it really necessary for humans to live? We are just a dust in time, you feel now What comes will pass away, and one day you will be forgotten."

Dazai Osamu said lightly, with no expression on his face, as if he mentioned it casually: "Of course, Miss Shimeng will definitely not be forgotten by this world, and I will firmly remember Miss Shimeng."

He saw sadness welling up in each other's eyes, Dazai Osamu sighed in his heart, this is the reason why he avoided meeting her, so that he could take over his identity for a while during the absence... Miss Shimeng Really too soft-hearted and too easy to deceive.

Shimeng really didn't expect that Osamu Dazai of 21.0 would ask a cosmic grand question when he opened his mouth, and he also didn't expect that "he" could not find his place in this world at all.

Which Dazai is this?

Why is he so pitiful, didn't Sakunosuke and Sakaguchi-kun stop him?But she knew she couldn't pierce it, otherwise she wouldn't be able to find it if she was scared away.

She took a deep breath: "Time is an eternal and unsolvable proposition. The example you gave is unrealistic. We should give time life, not life."

Osamu Dazai smiled lightly, and stirred the porridge in the bowl like a child: "Then let me use another example, take the bowl of porridge we are drinking now, when you drink it, you think it is so delicious, but wait When all the porridge is gone, you'll feel bad."

He put down the handle of the spoon in his hand: "All beginnings will come to an end."

……

Shimeng sat quietly on the seat, in fact, it is not unusual for Dazai to say this sentence, he and Dazai are two kinds of people.

But it seems that many feelings are common, especially in the point of chewing pain and enduring pain, but she has cultivated a steel frame, and Dazai is paper.

Pedestrians said it was mud, Ranpo said he was a bad guy, Bailan said he didn't like it, Shibusawa commented on nothingness, Fyodor said Dazai-kun was more extreme than him, Chuya said Shimeng, you should never talk to him...

The people around her have very low evaluations of Dazai. If estimated by the score, Dazai can get 2 points, which is after the limit of 50 people, plus the average of Oda's perfect score.

It seems that after trying so many times, more than Fuheshier, it's time to give up.

But as many people have commented, Shi Meng is often emotional and nosy. She picks up people and bumps into troubles everywhere along the way. There are more and more people around her, and many things happen to her, so she secretly tells herself that her shortcomings are also can be an advantage.

But she failed to meet the 14-year-old Osamu Dazai. She picked up the Akutagawa brothers and sisters in the slums, bumped into Chuya in Sabachi Street, and met the confused Oda. Where was Dazai at that time?

Which small river in Yokohama should he be floating in, counting crabs in the murky water.

I'm not sure if I, who just came to this world, can save him.

It should be possible, because at that time she was in a hurry

Find the anchor, so comers are welcome.

As long as she dreams of Dazai from time to time, she will frantically pick him up...like picking herself up from flowing muddy water...

"Dazai, I don't know how to persuade you, even, I can't avoid your question."

She seemed to be thinking about something, and carefully considered: "But I think, everything in this world has a basic truth."

"—Life is hard."

"Yes, life is full of pain and patience." Shi Meng spoke slowly, with a faint look of patience on his face.

But she has always been too strong. From the age of 14, she will always be the one who stands at the forefront and leads everyone forward.

"...Then why do you still live in this world?"

Shi Meng was silent, she was trying hard to chew and swallow the pain and sorrow she had dug up, and after a while, she smiled helplessly: "Probably because I have accepted the reality."

"Yes, when I was unable to resist... I tried to accept it, and then, I began to love this world."

She recalled the experience along the way, and slowly, the tenacity in her expression climbed up.

"What kind of process is this?" Osamu Dazai seemed to be asking or complaining: "Miss Shimeng also skipped too many steps."

"Well, this is a process of epiphany. That is, when I realized that life is painful, and everyone has their own pain. As long as we are still alive, then no matter what, there is no way for us to escape all of this."

"But in such a difficult reality, I am still alive, even if it feels unbearable, I am still alive. During this time of living, sometimes I will be very happy, and sometimes I will be sad... Like this bowl of porridge, maybe After closing, we will never have the chance to taste it again.”

"But the strange thing is that I am not dead, I am still alive. So I came to the conclusion: I yearn for this world. So even if I feel uncomfortable, knowing that I am always yearning for him is enough."

In fact, this is not the first time "Osamu Dazai" has heard this passage. In a distant different time and space, through the "book", I saw her narration in the white mist.

Osamu Dazai from another world was knocked on the door of his heart, and he in this world is the same, but not only because of the power of words, but also because of——

"—Osamu Dazai." Shimeng called solemnly, "Maybe my experience can't bring you any experience, and I don't know how to teach you to yearn for it."

"But if you trust me, please know that life is meaningless. Responsibility is meaning. Don't look for the meaning of life. It's hard to find. Find responsibility. Unlimited responsibility is infinite meaning."
