[Bungo Stray Dogs] Daily life

The level of a sumo wrestler.

In the crowded subway car, I think my height disadvantage is really brought to the extreme.

I tiptoed desperately, eager to find that slender figure, but was blocked by all kinds of strangers.The feeling of loneliness that was suddenly left behind by Dazai rushed over in an instant.

No.

don't want……

My ears seemed to hear my own sobbing a few years ago.

"Too—" I subconsciously wanted to call his name, but suddenly remembered the rarity of this surname and hurriedly stopped my mouth.

"Azhi..." When these syllables came out of my mouth, it was too late for me to take them back.It was as if I was cornered by the crowd, I decided not to have my thin skin, "Azhi—where are you?"

"Ah-"

"I'm here." A clear voice suddenly came from my right ear.It was as if the noise in the entire carriage just now disappeared in an instant, and in the next second I could feel the hot palm tightly holding mine.

"Hey, I already told you not to run around before you set off."

I raised my head in a daze, and found that this boy who was nearly a head taller than me was standing in front of me, and the distance between me and me was less than ten centimeters.I could even just look up and see the little spots of light in his tea-brown pupils and the flakes on his tightly closed crimson lips.

Puff, puff.

It seems that something is accelerating rapidly.

Time seemed to stand still there, and I was dragged out of the crowded car by his strong arm until the door of the car was opened again.

After coming out, the first action I made subconsciously was to let go of his hand.

He looked down at me slightly puzzled and surprised, but he didn't ask anything after all.

I bent my waist slightly, gasping for breath, and said to him, "Dazai...then what, thank you just now." After I finished speaking, I waved my palm pretending to be calm, "How can the people on the train be like that?" How much, if you have to endure this kind of experience of being forced to become a Roujiamo every day at work, it would be better to settle it once and for all.”

"It's not this."

I was slightly taken aback, "What?"

He turned his sideways body and stood face to face with me, and the awkward staring between us probably lasted for tens of seconds.

Just when I decided to be the first to break the deadlock, he took the lead this time.

"That's not what I wanted to hear."

"Then...then, what do you want to hear?" After I finished speaking, I began to secretly regret my recklessness in my heart. I originally wanted to say something more to ease the embarrassment, but I didn't expect it to add fuel to the fire. .

"...Mr. Dazai, I don't think it's the time for us to talk about this."

He was silent, did not answer me, but turned around and walked towards the opposite booth, and said to me as if nothing had happened, "The time for the next train opposite is 2 minutes later." After speaking, he had no intention at all. Stop and wait for my plan, and continue his footsteps.

What, it seems that just now I was just wishful thinking and having sex.

"Azhi!" I almost blurted out with all my strength, seeing his smooth footsteps pause, "At least wait for me—"

The author has something to say: For the convenience of logging in, I changed my pseudonym, everyone, don’t forget hahaha I’m still me==

After finishing the midterm test today, I was supposed to fly like a wave, but I found that my writing ability is not as good as before, which is a little sad.The countdown to the end of this article~

In the next article, Wenye will probably refill Akutagawa-kun~ But it depends on when I can finish this TT

The title stalk mentioned before is now back to the original point~ So Jasmine is going to catch up again this time (?) Who knows →_→

The eldest lady still has a first love plot. In a sense, after being hurt once, she secretly calls him a scumbag, but she still can't help caring about him. This is probably the state~

☆, (34)

"So...why?"

I also don't understand how I asked such an illogical question on the way to the hospital.

Dazai, who was walking in front of me, couldn't help but stop when he heard my question, and looked down at me, "Huh?"

I continued to explain: "Why don't you take Miss Yamazaki and Hengzi away together, they all like you, don't they? Besides, the two girls are helpless, I thought you would be happy to do such a thing."

Dazai stretched out his hand and raised his chin. After thinking for a moment, he answered me, "Does Jasmine want me to do this? If I really do, what will Miss Yamazaki do if she knows the truth about her husband?" What do you think?"

"I thought you wouldn't care what other people think." I pretended to shift my attention to the pedestrians on both sides of the road to avoid his gaze.

"Besides, Ms. Yamazaki is very beautiful. I thought you would like her very much. In addition, I have a feeling that she likes you more than ordinary girls. If Hengko treats you like a kind of elder brother worship... ...Then Ms. Yamazaki's feelings for you are definitely different, since we lived in her house, she has prioritized your feelings in everything."

After Dazai listened to my words, he couldn't help but chuckled, "If I want to say I like it, I'm..."

"I like all the women in this world, right?" I rolled my eyes at him involuntarily, but he put on a look of approval and nodded vigorously.

"As expected, Jasmine understands me best. Speaking of which, what does Jasmine's ideal type look like?"

"Mine?" I couldn't help raising my eyebrows, even I didn't expect to answer his question seriously, "If I have to say it, I should be more gentlemanly first. Um... if there is anything else, it seems More literary? Or someone who will work hard for his ideals is also great."

The strange thing is that the face that flashed in my mind immediately after I finished speaking the last word turned out to be...

"Hey——I always feel that this description is a bit like a person. What kind of gentleman, literary atmosphere, etc... Does Jasmine think he looks like Hiraoka-kun?" After listening to my description, Dazai expressed a kind of meaning Looking at me with deep eyes, he said slowly, "But you actually say that other boys are better in front of me, it sounds like I'm really hurt."

I hastily denied it immediately, "How is it possible! Why did you think it was Hiraoka Gongwei after hearing two descriptions that had nothing to do with his appearance?"

In fact, I secretly sighed in my heart, this guy probably has the ability to read minds as Ozaki Koyo said.What a horrible guy.

"Huh? Is what Jasmine said true?" The expression on his face looked like he still didn't believe me.

"Of course it's true." I said firmly, and then nodded vigorously.

"I see." Dazai looked as if he really believed my words, but after a few seconds, he spoke again, "But I noticed it a few years ago."

"What did you notice?" I asked subconsciously.

"Molly pulls her hair when she tells a lie."

Me: "..." Okay, you win.

[2]

Finally arrived at the gate of Nomura Hospital, as expected by Dazai, the area has been sealed off by the police, and there are no wounded and medical staff who should have stayed in the hospital.And the atmosphere in the deserted hospital inevitably seemed a little weird and intrusive.

Dazai put his left hand into the pocket of the sweater, gently lifted the seal with his right hand, and walked into the restricted area recklessly, and I had no choice but to trot behind him and step into the gate of the hospital.

I subconsciously looked at the electronic watch Hengzi gave me, and the pointer was already pointing to [-]:[-].In other words, there are only less than two hours left before the explosion claimed by the "King of Cang".

Dazai first walked around the lobby on the first floor, and after seeing nothing particularly surprising, he walked straight towards the pedestrian stairs.Panting, I followed his footsteps, still unable to hold back the doubts in my heart, I asked, "Where are we going now?"

"Negative first floor." He answered briefly.

etc?basement?

Common sense tells me that there is only one room on the first floor of the hospital.

I couldn't help but stopped, hesitated for a moment and said, "What are you doing in the morgue?"

He turned around and said to me a completely nonsensical sentence, "They will definitely come."

"Who?"

He stretched out his hand and motioned me to go to his side, so I had to quicken my pace.When I got close to him, he finally bent down and whispered in my ear: "It's the group of people with the ugly masks on their faces before. If they look at "Cang Zhi Wang's report, you should be jumping in a hurry by now. "

I still don't fully understand, "You mean, the reason why the "King of Blue" sent a letter to the police station is just for them to publish it in the newspaper and let the group of people wearing masks see this Then report, thus luring them to come to the hospital.But why would he do it?He wasn't planning on actually creating an explosion, was he? "

Dazai pondered for a moment, "I also have doubts about whether he intends to explode, because I really don't know the real motive of the "King of Blue", but the group of people wearing masks will definitely come to carry the corpse this afternoon. I am sure of this. "

"Corpse?" I couldn't help being startled, "Their purpose is only for the corpse?"

Dazai nodded slightly and said, "If I remember correctly, a year ago, there was a person inside the Mafia who colluded with an outside organ trafficking organization to make huge profits. Of course, this person has been executed. But before he died, he confessed to him. Another organization that works for - "MASK".Ah... I was still wondering how anyone would give their organization such a bad name, but seeing the tasteless masks on their faces that day made it understandable. "

After listening to Dazai's words, I finally understood why those people injured us but didn't kill us the day we were attacked.Because they were busy moving the corpses at that time, they encountered the mafia, and they had no choice but to find a way to stop us, but they didn't dare to really provoke the port mafia.

Dazai stopped at the stairs on the first floor, staring straight ahead at the morgue.But I only dared to stand behind him and didn't step forward.

Dazai seemed to have noticed my strangeness, he tilted his head and asked me, "Won't Jasmine go in with me to check the condition of the corpse?"

I slowly closed my eyes, but as soon as I closed my eyes, the hideous appearance of Ah Jiu before his death emerged in my mind, and in an instant, a nauseating feeling rushed from my stomach to my throat.

So I shook my head lightly, and said, "No, I'll watch out for you outside. It would be difficult if those masked people suddenly went in."

Dazai nodded, stepped forward and opened the door of the morgue, poked his head to make sure there was no living person inside, and then walked in with great strides.

I sighed softly, retreated to the stairs, raised my head and tried to clear my thoughts, and at the same time, I wanted to drive away the strong nausea reaction in my body.But it obviously didn't have a great effect. Due to the large number of dead bodies placed there, the entire first floor of the basement was filled with a sluggish and festering atmosphere.

But in the next second, a hand with sharp bones suddenly tightly covered my mouth and nose, and I could feel his other hand firmly clamping my waist.After realizing what happened, I instinctively started to struggle and resist, only to find that the hand covering my nose and mouth was still holding a piece of gauze stained with a special liquid.

Oops.

"It's useless, Miss Mori." After hearing the voice of the person behind me, my pupils constricted suddenly, because I recognized the voice. "The potion will take effect within 1 minute...so, have a good dream."

The author has something to say: PS: In fact, there is a foreshadowing in front of this paragraph, but it is too obscure for everyone to understand because my writing is limited =口=

In order to prevent everyone from understanding, let me explain briefly:

In Chapter 27, when Hiraoka Kinwei appeared, Jasmine acted unnaturally.

In Chapter 28, when I checked the information, I was actually interested in him, so I clicked (crossed out) his information. Dazai came over to read it at that time, and then she deleted it in a hurry.

Maybe it’s been too long and everyone has forgotten about this soy sauce hhh

If you are interested, you can search for this name~ Gongwei Hiraoka is very unpleasant to see Osamu Dazai in the three dimensions~

☆, (35)

Well, it hurts.

Where the hell am I now?

The eyelids seemed to be too swollen to open, and the too harsh light in the world outside my mind made me retreat instinctively.If only I could keep my eyes closed all the time, as long as I don't open my eyes, I don't have to face such a cruel reality anymore, right?

"What a terrifying ability..."

It was Miss Hongye's voice.

"—If you can, let her go."

send me away?Where are you going?What is Koyo Ozaki talking about?

"My concubine has already checked the information. If she is willing to enter the medical school where Boss stayed before, she can still enroll. Although she is not yet of the legal age for admission, if she is willing to accommodate... people from Germany It’s not a group of guys who don’t look at other people’s faces and do things.”

I seem to have heard Mori Ogai sigh softly.

"...Let's talk about this later, Momiji-kun."

I flung my eyes open.

The rickety electric fan above the head, the turbulent warm wind blowing through the earlobe, and the smell of paint filling the nostrils...and the pale-skinned young man in front of me constituted the whole picture in my sight.

"Where am I?" I asked subconsciously, but my throat felt dry as soon as I opened my mouth.

Hiraoka Gongwei didn't look at me, but stared straight at the glass window opposite him, and said, "It's in the treatment room on the third floor." As soon as he finished speaking, the corner of his eye seemed to notice me The movement of the hand, hurriedly said, "Miss Mori, it's better not to do unnecessary things, the remote control of the bomb is still in my hand, as long as I want to, I can explode at any time."

I looked down at the coils of thick hemp rope now tied to my wrist, and at the other end was a small machine, whose screen displayed the remaining time of the explosion.

"...Are you the King of Cang?"

"If Ms. Mori wants to call me that, it's understandable." He smiled lightly, as if it was just an unimportant matter, "Although the police conducted a sweeping search of the hospital, it was impossible to find it. Because I didn't put the bomb inside the hospital. But speaking of it...they didn't take what I said seriously at all. The seemingly harmless 20-year-old boy and the mastermind of several bombings couldn't be contacted no matter what he looked at. stand up."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly stood up straight, and walked straight to the window before stopping.

I think he can hear the surprise in my voice, "You...your feet?"

"Ah," he glanced over his shoulder at me, "sometimes you have to put on a little camouflage."

I was silent, just lowered my head and panted heavily, and now I probably have a deeper understanding of the saying "a person should not be judged by his appearance".

"Why do you want to do this?" I asked in a strange way, although I didn't expect him to tell me the truth in my heart, "If I really do this, many innocent people will die, right? This is what Hiraoka-kun really wanted. Did you see that?"

Gongwei Hiraoka was slightly startled when he heard what I said, turned around and walked in front of me, and said to me with a smile, "If you talk about innocent people, Ms. Mori should be more aware of their deaths than I am." right."

I felt my pupils constrict suddenly.

"Don't worry... I won't hurt Miss Sen." He stretched out his right hand subconsciously, and brushed a few strands of hair hanging down my cheeks behind my ears with almost gentle movements, " If I'm not mistaken, Masa Mori is not her real name, Miss Mori's real name should be Mori Mori."

I whispered, "It's just that Mori Yae didn't register, but I didn't lie to you." After I finished speaking, I raised my head, met his black pupils, and asked, "Where's Hiraoka-kun? Or is it Mr. Hiraoka?" Is Wei not your name?"

"No." He shook his head lightly, "On the contrary, Hiraoka Gongwei is my original name."

Seeing that I just kept my head down and didn't make a sound, he continued, "Ms. Mori found Nomura Hospital, so it will be a matter of time before the case from a few years ago is found."

The doctor-patient dispute about Qian Shi's family immediately flashed in my mind, "...is it related to you?"

"It doesn't matter much."

"Then why are you...?"

"There is no clear boundary between good and evil in this world." He said, "It's like Miss Sen thinks that the explosion hurt too many people, so this kind of behavior is evil, but if those who died originally Is it a murderer? How should this be judged?"

"Murderers have their own legal sanctions." Although I can't even convince myself of this answer.

"Sanctions?" He tilted his head. "The law won't kill them. But I want them dead."

I looked at this young man who could almost be called frail in front of me, speaking words that wanted to kill someone with a completely indifferent attitude, and I was a little dumb for a moment.

"Ms. Mori may think that smuggling, illegal trafficking, and even killing people in action are very common things in the life of the mafia." When he said this, his eyes were a little empty, "But, for the sake of I...I can't bear such ungrateful things, such as selfishness, and the person being helped becomes the killer of the person who helped him. Besides, Qing and she did nothing wrong!"

"Qianshi Qinghe?" I raised my head almost reflexively.

He nodded and continued, "Although the mafia is a gang, the most important reason I admire the leaders of this organization is that they will never involve in drug and organ trafficking. The latter is the last thing to let Humans can bear it. In order to make huge profits, the behavior of pushing things like murdering patients to the chief surgeon... What kind of person can do it?"

I asked quietly, "The operation performed by Dr. Qian Shi failed, and finally he was attacked by the public opinion of the whole society, which directly led to the destruction of their family. After checking the information, I really think that case is very suspicious."

He looked at me, but the sadness in his eyes made my heart involuntarily chill.

"They are all good people... and they are all very noble people. They are people who can give their lives to save the patients in their hands." His voice was a little choked, "and Qinghe is definitely the kindest person in the world Existence. Since junior high school, her grades have been among the best, and all her classmates and teachers love her... Whenever there is a donation event, the name of Qianshi Qinghe is always ranked first in the school, and Qinghe's family is not considered rich. There is also a sister who is much younger than her."

"But a person like this lost his life because he was involved in a conspiracy based on profit." I finished the next sentence for him, but I couldn't find any point of view to refute him.

In a sense, I knew he was right.

"And those culprits are still at large, they don't care what kind of blood their hands are stained with." His voice suddenly became high-pitched, and his hands were tightly clenched into fists, "—this is not fair at all !"

"But there are still many unfair things in the world." A joking voice came from the door, and I looked up in surprise, only to see a tall and straight black-haired young man with his hands in the pockets of his sweater, appearing in our room before.

"Dazai?" I blinked in surprise to make sure this wasn't my hallucination.

Dazai smiled and took out a small black bug from his pocket, shook it next to his ear, and then threw it on the ground in disgust, "Sure enough, it's much worse than before after being soaked in water... ...The treatment room on the third floor, this place is too remote!"

After speaking, he walked straight towards us with a smile, and said, "Hiraoka-kun, even if it's the second time we've met, it's still rude to tie my girlfriend with a bomb."

"Dazai-kun," Hiraoka Komi raised his head to look at him without any haste, "it was a little slower than I expected."

"Hey—after all, it's not easy to run outside to call the police at the public phone booth, and to avoid the group of masked guys downstairs." His tea-brown pupils flashed a strange look, " How about it? It’s a quid pro quo. Personally, I think I’ve done a good job, so can I let my girlfriend go?”

"Although I know you are a smart person. But if the police are brought here, Dazai-kun will not be able to escape himself, right?"

"It's not just the police," Dazai said with a nonchalant smile, "even the media outside couldn't help it. Ahhh, after all, I called and told them that the true face of the Cangzhi King is a beautiful girl. Can't suppress the urge to see the beauty?"

Hiraoka Komiya did not answer.

Dazai turned and stood in front of him, changed his unscrupulous tone, and asked him coldly, "If I guessed correctly, you have already done what you wanted to do. Put MASK, Yokohama police, news The media all lead to hospitals that have no patients, just to find the right time to die with them, right?"

"It's one of the reasons." Hiraoka Komiya turned around, facing the window, the magnificent red clouds outside the window are so beautiful, "On the one hand, it is to complete the meaningless 'revenge' in your opinion, but On the other hand..." He paused, "Is the truth of the incident a few years ago finally revealed to the world? After all, I have always had an impossible wish-that is, there will never be any more people in this world. Things like this happen. And good and evil come to pass.”

"But that's impossible." I don't know why I subconsciously said, "If there is no so-called evil, there will be no good, and human nature itself is selfish."

Hiraoka Komiya turned his head, but there was still a smile on his lips, "But if evil cannot be punished, then goodness is meaningless."

After finishing speaking, he threw a bunch of keys and a pair of scissors to Dazai, "Untie the hemp rope, find the elevators for the disabled, use the keys to start them, and take that elevator should be perfect to avoid those policemen And the people from MASK. After all, the patient named "Mishima" would be in trouble without the elevators. The hospital has always been supplying them with electricity. "

Dazai took the scissors, cut off the rope tied around my wrist, and turned to Komi Hiraoka, "Aren't you leaving, Mr. Hiraoka?"

He shook his head resolutely, "I have done everything I have to do. Good and evil will be rewarded, and I will also pay the price for those bombings."

"Don't—" I reflexively wanted to stop him, but in the next second Dazai pulled him tightly into his arms, and his physical advantage was too obvious at this time.

I almost struggled all the way, but he basically dragged me out of the hospital with a cold face all the way.

When we were about 100 meters away from the hospital, I looked down at the watch on my wrist—18:20.

Realizing what was about to happen, I used all my strength to break free from Dazai's hand, and turned to run towards the hospital.If they ran faster... maybe they would have time, if they ran faster, maybe they wouldn't have to die.

But Dazai imprisoned me with his arms again. I never realized that this tall, thin young man with no muscles seemed to have such great strength.He pressed his jaw firmly against my head, lowered his voice and said, "...that was his own choice."

I shook my head desperately, and refuted him loudly, "Do you also think those policemen and reporters should die? Many of them have nothing to do with the incident a few years ago!"

"If they don't die, the government will not pay attention to this kind of thing, and the media will not understand their mistakes, and they will surely repeat the same mistakes in the near future. They didn't die in vain—"

His words hadn't finished yet, but almost at the same time, the whole world fell into a strange silence, and all the creatures in the world seemed to have lost their voices.

Dazai covered my ears with both arms almost subconsciously, and pushed me to the ground hard. I opened one eye with difficulty, and found that the turbulent heat wave from the direction of the hospital was heading towards us at high speed. swept up.

Puff, puff, puff...

It seems that to me, there is nothing left in this world except for two bursts of irregular heartbeats.

I stretched out my arms, only to find some clear liquid slid down my cheeks... I didn't realize until they fell on my fingertips—they were my tears.

……

I don't know how long it has passed, and I don't know which direction Dazai led me to. I just feel my feet are sore and weak, and it seems that every step I take is a huge torment for me.

I stopped suddenly, and Dazai, who was walking in front of me, looked back at me strangely.

"Why did you save me?" I asked, staring into his eyes.

He didn't seem to expect that the question I asked was this.Indeed, he didn't need any valid reason to save me, maybe he just did what he should, just like many years ago.

Come to my side, there is no need for any reason for Ogai Ogai to spy on me.

Just did what was supposed to be done.

"Ah... well, after all, Jasmine is—"

"I don't want to hear what you usually say." I interrupted him coldly, "I want to hear you tell the truth. I want to know what you think in your heart."

Dazai was silent.

But I chose to step forward, so the distance between us is now close at hand.

"Then... may I ask you another question?"

I felt my heart beating fast, as if my heart was about to burst out of my throat.

A trace of doubt quickly flashed across the tea-brown pupils.

"—Do you like me or not?"

Doubt instantly turned into shock, surprise, and astonishment.

The eyes met each other in silence for a few seconds, but reason once again prevailed, realizing what I had done, I just wanted to find a hole in the ground and get in.

But in the next second, Dazai stretched out his slender hand towards me, penetrated into my hair, and then gently covered mine with his own lips.

So soft.

Plop plop plop plop——

My brain machine froze instantly.

The author has something to say: I'm sorry that after such a serious plot, I have to connect with such a Mary Su bridge [Dogeza]

but i want their relationship to rocket 233

Let's talk about "The King of Cang", in fact, this person I wrote is the lover of Nobuko Sasaki in "Osamu Dazai's Entrance Test" (a plot also in the anime).In the original book, Taguchi boy’s father (a policeman) died because of the explosion. In the original book, Kunikida felt that he was responsible for the death of Liu Zang’s father and took him in.This is also the reason why Hiraoka’s description resembles Kunikida’s.Nobuko Sasaki thinks Ao no King is very similar to Kunikida.

Of course it's pure nonsense on my side XD

As for why the prototype is Mr. Mishima, I felt several times that he was a somewhat paranoid person. When I read his "Golden Pavilion Temple", it was the first time I read a novel and felt so depressed.It's also possible that his and my style of painting doesn't match orz.But the ending of the Kinkakuji Temple at that time reminded me of a kind of complete destruction... Maybe in his eyes, complete destruction is also a kind of beauty.

☆, (36)

The bombing that happened at Nomura Hospital a few days ago caused a huge commotion in the entire Kanagawa Prefecture, and many newspapers and news organizations took turns to report on it.At the same time, the truth of the unjust case many years ago was also accompanied by this sensation, and it was finally made public, so the two doctors who were involved were finally cleared of their injustice.

Unfortunately, it took five full years in between.

As for the dead, they will never come back.

But I think, perhaps because of this, the fundraising for rebuilding the hospital initiated by the people has attracted many wealthy businessmen to donate.Even ordinary people at the grassroots level across the country have extended a helping hand. According to the latest reports, fundraising groups have even received several anonymous huge sums of money from Yokohama.

I quickly glanced at the news on the web, then closed my eyes heavily.After about 5 minutes or so, I made up my mind to turn off the webpage and close the laptop.

——Is this what you want to see, Hiraoka-kun?

Now is the end of summer, so even though the night tonight still has the restlessness of summer, it also carries the coolness of autumn night.I walked slowly to the window and stretched open the lake-green velvet curtains that hung in the room.In the pitch-black night sky, there was not a trace of starlight, but a jade-colored disk was hanging high above the head, and the moonlight was particularly bright even in the starless night.

"The moonlight is so beautiful... ah."

I couldn't help murmuring, and subconsciously touched my pocket, only to find that it was empty.

Hey, where's my phone?

Realizing the possibility that I might have left it in the living room, I quickly put on my slippers and staggered out of the room.But when I looked up, I saw Oda Sakunosuke standing in the middle of the living room with my mobile phone in his hands, holding my mobile phone in doubt, and my mobile phone was vibrating non-stop in his hand.

But I don't think my heart beats any slower than it vibrates.

"yours……"

"Thank you!"

Before he finished speaking, the phone was already in my hand first.Oda Tsukuru, who stood in place the whole time and witnessed my exaggerated and abrupt actions, at this moment, the doubts on his face deepened a bit.

I unfolded the phone, and the caller ID was——

"Hey?"

I suppressed the panic in my tone and asked pretending to be calm.

"Wow - Jasmine, you finally answered the phone - if Jasmine didn't answer the phone, I would think that if my girlfriend hadn't broken up with me..."

"Wait." I admitted that I interrupted him a little unkindly, "I think we should make things clear. When did I become your girlfriend?"

puff, puff...

My heartbeat started to speed up uncontrollably again, oops.So I turned my best attention to the ends of my black hair, twirling them restlessly with my fingers.

"Ah—you don't remember..."

The tone of the person on the other end of the phone sounded a little disappointed.

But I think I am still a little innocent. Although this guy likes to talk about unreliable words such as "girlfriend", "martyrdom" and "favorite person" all day long, if it is really true As his girlfriend, I think I would laugh out loud in my dreams at night.

"But what I remember is that it was two and a half years ago, and it was Jasmine who asked me to be your boyfriend at that time."

I:"……"

Don't mention the old things again, okay?

"But two and a half years ago, you obviously wanted to complete Mori Ogai's mission." I knew that it would be a shame for me to tell the truth at this time, but I still couldn't restrain the impulse in my heart, "So...that's not
