365 days of playing the knife

It is not uncommon for Kunikida Doppo to encounter the matter of making a child cry because of his aggressive tone and expression.

However, in the battle, it is considered a dangerous "enemy" in a certain sense, and it is the first time he has experienced crying because of such things that he cannot understand.

He also took the opportunity to be ridiculed by colleagues he was never used to, which made him even more angry.

And the more ferocious his expression was, the more frightened Five Tigers Tui was.

Thus formed a vicious circle.

The silver-haired child had too slender and fragile limbs, and the water vapor wet his pair of golden pupils which were similar to the tiger beside him.At a glance, there is no dangerous goods on the body. (The knife is hidden in the sleeve, and I have not had time to take it out.)

The whole person exudes a harmless and pitiful temperament, which is even more prominent when compared with the terrifying huge beast next to him.

But Kunikida still didn't dare to underestimate the other party, a child who can control beasts—is it really that simple?

The answer is, yes.

Kenji Miyazawa proves this.

Kenji is currently the youngest member of the "Armed Detective Agency", and he has spent the least time in the detective agency, but he was recruited by the president two months ago.

Before that, he lived in an extremely remote and simple place deep in the mountains, so he didn't understand those twists and turns at all.For things he doesn't understand, he just needs to ask a question. No matter what others answer, he will have no doubts about the other party's answer.

"Kenji, wait!"

Miyazawa Kenji took the initiative to approach the Five Tigers in Kunikida's obstructive and vigilant words, but the white beast beside the silver-haired boy looked lazily at the approaching blond boy in Kunikida's surprised expression. Make any attack.

Are tigers not wary of them?

In Kunikida's view, this is absolutely impossible.

Because Kunikida is currently the only human being who has completely accepted Xiaohu's ferocious gaze from a hunter.

When he realized that the tiger regarded him as a prey, the muscles of his whole body tensed up, and he was on guard all the time.

He didn't doubt that if he accidentally exposed his opening, the beast would immediately pounce on him and bite his neck off with its sharp teeth.

And the reason why Xiaohu doesn't attack Kenji but just stares at Kunikida viciously is also very simple.

Because among all the people present, it was the most obvious fact that Kunikida made his master cry, and Xiaohu had already labeled Kunikida as a bad guy in his heart.

As for Miyazawa Kenji, it didn't feel any malice, the natural aura on his body was still a human he liked, and the Five Tigers didn't let him stop him——

Because the little tiger was raised by the gentle and kind five tigers, except for the instinct of a wild animal, it is as docile as a domestic cat most of the time, and never actively hurts others.

But it was never a domestic cat, it was a ferocious beast - a tiger known as the "King of the Jungle".

It has never been afraid of fighting, and in its eyes other than the master and the people the master recognizes, it only has "prey", and the distinction between prey is only whether it can kill or not.The current Kenji Miyazawa probably still belongs to the category of temporarily immobile prey.

Miyazawa Kenji didn't seem to realize that he was facing an enemy now. In his eyes, he only saw an ordinary child who was crying.

The blond-haired 14-year-old boy, who was half a head taller than the back, took off the slanted hat on his head in the watery and dazed eyes of the five tigers.Another not-so-broad hand with calluses still left after labor caressed Wu Hutui's soft hair.

It feels... very warm.Just like a brother.Think back.

"Don't cry!" Kenji had a lively and cheerful smile on his face, and he messed up Wuhutui's hair, "If it's because Mr. Kunikida is too fierce——"

Kenji thought for a while, and continued, "Because Mr. Kunikida is that kind of person!"

Wuhu backed off for two seconds before he understood Xianzhi's meaning. He stopped his tears, sucked his nose lightly, and shook his head timidly.

"Eh? Isn't it because of this reason?" Kenji opened his eyes wide.

The five tigers retreated into silence for a few seconds, took a peek at Kunikida, and then almost cried out in fright again.This reaction was obvious to everyone present except Xianzhi, and it couldn't be more obvious.

Apparently—the Five Tigers retired because they were afraid of Kunikida.

Wu Hutui took a deep breath, his voice still trembling. "No, it's not..." Or it can be interpreted as not all.

"Why is that?" Kenji asked.

"...Brother said," Wu Hu Tui's eyes turned red again, "Say, if Xiaohu is discovered by outsiders..."

"I will, I will be caught in the zoo..." QAQ

Hearing this sentence, Xiaohu immediately looked away from Kunikida, giving Kunikida a chance to catch his breath.It raised its head and pushed Kenji away with its head, then rubbed against Wuhutui, and surrounded it with its body in a form of protection.

After doing this, Xiaohu let out a soft roar that was neither long nor short.

No one except Wuhu Tui could understand Xiaohu's words, but they could all hear the intimacy and tenderness in Beast's tone.

It also made Kunikida feel a little unbelievable, why can beasts and humans be so close?

But unexpectedly, the five tigers retreated and suddenly raised their voice to Xiaohu, "——No! Absolutely not!"

The little tiger was wronged, and it looked at its master helplessly.

Wu Hutui suddenly realized that he had reacted too much, and he carefully looked at a group of adults who were all looking at him.He lowered his voice to Xiaohu again and said seriously, "This matter, only this matter...Xiao Hu, you absolutely...absolutely can't do it..." Hurting human beings or something...really not allowed.

The little tiger is not afraid of human anesthetics, its bite force can easily bite through the iron cage, and its claws can do the same.

If Xiaohu has the idea of ​​wanting to hurt humans—then with the support of his sufficient spiritual power, the wounds on Xiaohu's body can be healed at any time.In the same world, as long as the "five tigers retreat" is still alive, as long as it is not a momentary fatal injury, the little tiger will never disappear.

What Xiaohu just meant was that no matter what happens, it will never leave itself, if someone blocks them...it will protect itself "desperately".

For example - kill these people in front of you.

Although if that kind of thing really happened, the Five Tigers would also choose to protect Xiaohu.

Xiaohu understands this, but it doesn't prevent it from feeling aggrieved after being retreated.Wu Hutui could only pat Xiaohu's head and apologize softly.

"Speaking of which, what's your name?" Xianzhi didn't care about the feeling of being ignored just now. In his opinion, it's right for a pet to have a good relationship with its owner, such as him and his cattle.

And when Wu Hutui was about to answer when he heard this sentence, he suddenly remembered someone's teaching, "Ah!" He said, "Before asking others, I have to introduce myself."

"I'm Kenji, Miyazawa Kenji!" said the freckled boy with a bright smile.

"Tui, I call Tui..." Wu Hutui still had water on his face, and his eyes were slightly red, but he still showed a shy and gentle smile just like that.

The hostile painting style at the scene instantly turned into a scene where kindergarten children make friends.

"As expected of Mr. Kenji." Dazai Osamu sighed, and then drew the "monster card" in Edogawa Ranpo's hand, and the expression on Dazai Osamu's face did not change.As a matter of course, the "monster card" was transferred to Yosano in the next second.

He clicked his tongue with Xie Ye, "It's just three people playing "Drawing Joker", and the opponent is still the two of you. "

"Who told Kunikida-kun not to play together?" Dazai Osamu chuckled.

He knew from the very beginning that he would not be able to continue playing, so in order to pass the time, he specially brought his "Complete Suicide Manual" and a deck of poker.

After Five Tigers retreated and announced his name, he waved his hand to signal for everyone to play cards together.

Dr. Xie Ye, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and Mr. Ranpo, who also knew the ending from the beginning, naturally would not refuse.

Only Kunikida wanted to say a bunch of words of criticism to deal with Osamu Dazai, but because Mr. Ranpo whom he respected and a certain person who was the scariest person in the detective agency did this behavior, so He could only give up this idea.

But he didn't go along with it either.

Even though Osamu Dazai said he was fine, and casually explained that the "man-eating tiger" was Atsushi Nakajima who had fainted, Kunikida still didn't let his guard down.

This vigilance continued until Kenji explained to Tui that they would not send the cubs to the zoo casually, and the five tigers bowed to Kunikida with an absolutely standard ninety-degree bow.

"Holding, I'm sorry..." Wu Hutui blinked his big eyes, his voice was small, and his tone was also timid.He pulled Xianzhi's clothes, and stood up from behind Xianzhi despite being very scared.

"Just now, I regarded you as a bad person..."

"Tch..." Kunikida frowned, his expression still irritable, "Your tiger doesn't seem to agree with you."

Wuhu Tui felt puzzled because of this sentence, and he and Xianzhi looked back at their little tiger together.Xiaohu's strangely colored eyes were pure and clear, and his expression was innocent. When Wuhu turned his head back to look at it, he even tilted his head in a humane manner.

So the five tigers retreated even more strangely, looking back at Kunikida to express his doubts.

And Kunikida just looked at Baihu at the moment Wuhu retreated back, his eyes were more fierce than before, and his expression was terrifying, but he didn't make any sound that Wuhutai could detect.

This face-changing speed is comparable to Dazai.

Kunikida, who realized that he compared Tiger to Dazai, also heard the mocking sound of an annoying guy behind him, and felt even angrier.

Looking at Mr. Kunikida who seemed to be getting more and more angry, Wu Hutui secretly hid behind Kenji and lowered his head.

——As for the fact that I and Xiaohu are connected in heart, it is better not to show it.

The author has something to say: Quiet: Woohoo... so scary...

Kenji: Don't cry, don't cry, I won't send your tiger to the zoo.

Back: Really, really?

Kenji: Of course!It is rare to have such an obedient tiger. I would like to ask you to borrow land for farming, what a labor force.

retreat:……
