Having come into contact with this young man named Osamu Dazai, Fyodor, who had just woken up from the hospital, finally had a channel to learn everything about the superhuman.

He has a skeptical attitude towards everything in this world, and the sense of disobedience is too strong in his heart.It's like a traveler in the fog, who vaguely sees lights flickering far ahead in the lost way, and tries to get closer, but finds that he can't find the way forward at all.

Something was holding him back from the truth.

Fyodor knew there must be something wrong with him.According to the nurses, he fell into a coma when he was four years old.Now that 11 years have passed, even if his body has reached the age of entering high school, his consciousness should still be at the level of a four-year-old child.

Is it possible for such a young child to possess logical and rigorous analytical skills?

After that, he did learn a lot from Osamu Dazai.

For example, the appearance of people with supernatural abilities is not completely random, but they are not born with this kind of power.At present, all the supernatural power users in the world are awakened after reaching a certain age, and the power they get is very suitable for themselves.

Just like Osamu Dazai, the ability to awaken is very similar to the character setting he set for himself during his second year of middle school.

The youngest cadre of the mafia, with bandages all over his body, because his mind is not in the same dimension as ordinary people, he always feels bored because he sees through the world.His hobby is suicide, but he is always rejected by hell. The woman who cried for him can go around Yokohama.On the surface, it seems that he and the leader of the organization are afraid of each other, but in fact it is the illegitimate child of the other party who hides well. This superficial fear is also his protection.

It didn't take long for Osamu Dazai, who had awakened the supernatural ability, to discover that the necessary medium for him to use his ability was the bandage wrapped around his body.

If you want to maximize your ability, you must dress like a Mafia official.

So he deliberately stole the most expensive black windbreaker from Mori Ogai, and sewed it on the shoulders of his small suit. Even if it was hotter, he would cover his whole body with bandages, as a support for his mobilization ability.

Dr. Sen, who has always been very reassuring about his own children, showed a look of relief when he found out that his youngest son had entered the legendary second year of middle school.By the way, I have nothing to do and take pictures as souvenirs, leaving countless black history for my children.

Sometimes children are too reassuring, and parents have no sense of accomplishment at all.

And the red-haired young man named Sakunosuke Oda had a similar awakened ability.Before he got the ability called seamless, his avoidance of danger was far beyond ordinary people.

For example, when eating curry rice, if the waiter serves the wrong dish, you can feel that the curry you get is not spicy before you finish your mouth.When you hear a dog barking from afar, you can know that the curly-haired kid at Dr. Mori's house next door is going to mess with the old man's Shiba Inu again.And before being chased together with himself, he picked up Osamu Dazai and turned around and ran away.

Now even if he has the ability to predict the future, for Oda Sakunosuke, except for fighting the nightmare, it is rarely useful on weekdays.

Not all supernatural power users are good at fighting, and there are quite a few people whose abilities are completely auxiliary, but the most popular among them is the type that can fight.

After all, for people with supernatural abilities, if they want to use their abilities for a long time, it is inevitable to replenish the energy they need.It was the monster named Nightmare that Osamu Dazai fought with not long ago, and the spar dropped from it was the only source of energy.

Fighting is always accompanied by unpredictable dangers, and many people died for it.For those ability users who are unwilling to give up supernatural powers and cannot obtain crystals through fighting nightmares, buying them with money is the only way left.

The small society belonging to people with supernatural abilities is self-contained, and the purchase channels and sources of spar have long established a mature business chain.However, in all of this, no government can interfere in the slightest, and it is very likely that even the existence of people with supernatural abilities has never been known.

This situation seems absurd, but there are unavoidable reasons.

People with supernatural powers usually keep silent about their identities, and the reason is very simple. There is a rule imposed on them, which silently binds everyone's throat.

You must never reveal your identity to ordinary people. If you violate the law, all those who know the information, including the revealer himself, will experience an "accidental" death together, and the disaster will not stop until all evidence is destroyed.

This kind of thing is not without precedent.

Taking Fyodor, who was so weak that he could hardly even walk, back to the ward, Osamu Dazai, who was sitting next to his bed, gave many examples.

The most common is death in a car accident, or falling from a building or jumping into the sea without warning.Some of the larger ones usually end up in small or medium-sized accidents, such as gas explosions, bus brakes out of control and falling off cliffs, etc.

However, in the history of people with supernatural powers here in Japan, the largest disaster directly triggered an earthquake, causing countless casualties, and it was firmly engraved in everyone's heart as the most painful warning.

As for the reason why he was able to tell Fyodor all this, it was because he vaguely felt that there was a potential candidate in this hospital who would not go wrong.For potential candidates, the awakening of supernatural powers is only a matter of time.

This kind of person has learned the relevant knowledge in advance, and it will not trigger the so-called punishment.

Fyodor, who was obediently nestled on the hospital bed the whole time, acted as a perfect listener, accepting everything that Osamu Dazai said.Even though he expressed doubts in his heart about the weird living conditions of people with supernatural abilities, the pale-skinned boy didn't show it at all on the surface.

sense of violation.

People with supernatural powers shouldn't be like this, and the so-called rules, it seems that there is something beyond the supernatural powers, silently observing everything in the world.

Give punishment to those who want to break the rules of the game.

The separation of emotion and body, the biggest trouble for Fyodor is his insincere words.

After that, he kept in touch with Osamu Dazai, and the two seemed to be very good friends.The teenager who survived the rehabilitation stage also used the support money from his parents to successfully move to Yokohama.

He successfully transferred to the high school where Osamu Dazai was located, and the two have always been classmates.When the opponent repels the nightmare, he will also bring him with him as a preview before the awakening of the supernatural power.

However, Fyodor's ability has not been awakened for a long time, and an unexpected change has ushered in.

It was an ordinary rainy day, and the air was much colder and more humid than usual. Countless gray cumulonimbus clouds gathered in the sky, covering up the sunlight that should have been scattered on the ground.

Perhaps as early as that time, he should have expected that the next series of tragedies had already been foreshadowed.

At first, she lost contact with Akiko Yosano without warning.

The very individual daughter of Dr. Mori's family left Yokohama alone and went to Osaka to attend university.Not long ago, she called to tell her family that she had found a boyfriend.

Under the hard work of Mori Ogai, who was regarded as the guardian, the other party was finally willing to send back a photo of her and her boyfriend.

It was a very handsome young man with an elegant expression, the same as his current job, and he liked to read a collection of poems when he was free.Compared with Akiko Yosano in the photo before leaving home, she has a rather thick metal butterfly hairpin on her head, which seems to be a gift from the other party.

The emotional process between the two is very smooth, even if the age gap is slightly larger, this does not become an obstacle between them.

As a parent who is worried about marrying his daughter, Mori Ogai also sneaked to Osaka and inspected it secretly.After confirming that this boy surnamed Li Yuan had no character problem, he finally felt relieved.

I thought it would be good news to hear from the two of them again, but I didn't expect that Mr. Sen, who was busy in the clinic before that, received a call from the police.

The young man surnamed Liyuan hanged himself in the apartment, the rope used for hanging had long since broken, and there were countless traces of machetes on the floor.His blood was all over the room, but he couldn't find any wounds on his body, and the blood content in his body was within the normal range.

And Yosano Akiko is missing, suspected to be the number one suspect.

It seemed that it was at that time that all the superficial calm began to collapse and fall apart.

After receiving the news, Osamu Dazai insisted on rushing to Osaka together, and found traces of Nightmare activities near the scene.The kind of demon that can induce people to take the initiative to die, for some reason, will target his family.

With the intelligence network of people with supernatural powers, the detection speed of the teenager is faster than that of the police.Within a few days, he found Yosano who had been missing for many days in a long-abandoned building.

When Osamu Dazai was completely unaware, his elder sister, who had no blood relationship with him but had a relationship no worse than that of his own siblings, also stepped into the ranks of people with supernatural powers.

Her ability awakened after the death of her boyfriend.

[Want to save him] Such a strong emotion made the so-called miracle happen.However, the ability of Please Don’t Die can only heal all traumas, but it can’t do anything to the dead. No matter how hard she tries, she can’t save her lover’s life.

Everything is messed up.

At the end of the incident, although Yosano Akiko got rid of the identity of the suspect, she had no intention of staying in this land that would only make her feel sad.After going through the formalities of suspending school, she returned to her home in Yokohama, silently relying on time to heal her wounds.

Then another three years passed.

Trapped in this body for too long, Fyodor found faint signs of fusion between his consciousness and the body itself.

During the three years of high school, he was almost inseparable from Osamu Dazai.Because he felt inexplicably bored, he actively avoided all other social interactions, and only focused on Osamu Dazai who could intersect with the world of people with supernatural abilities.

It seems that due to physical problems, Fyodor is particularly vulnerable to nightmares.In the later stage, even a few ability users who acted together did not need to go out to hunt. They only needed to squat regularly beside this young man whose body was so weak that he could only maintain the most basic life, and he could eliminate many enemies.

Osamu Dazai, who had been his classmate for three years, was very troubled. He was afraid that one day if he didn't pay attention, Fyodor would hang somewhere he didn't know.In order to allow him to have the ability to protect himself as soon as possible, the curly-haired boy came up with many crooked ideas, trying to use his only experience to make the supernatural ability suitable for Fyodor appear as soon as possible.

He enthusiastically took out a notebook covered with various dark-style tapes, flipped through the pages where he wrote his own settings, and began to prepare similar settings for this Russian with a daily indifferent expression.

After all, after three years of getting along, Osamu Dazai is very clear about Fyodor's hobbies and specialties.

He first designed a crazy mouse logo with a grinning grin, and then based on his impression of the Russians, he drew a set of strange uniforms mixed with various elements.

The brown-red snow boots that wrap the entire calf try hard to be related to the Orthodox Church, but the final product is just a two-piece set with ordinary buckles.In addition, a white felt hat is usually used as a woman's style in Russia, and a large black cape with a raw edge.

The devil, the leader of the thieves group called the Rats of the Dead House, has just been released.

"..."

Looking at the soul painting on the ledger, Fyodor felt that something was wrong, and felt that everything was right, and fell into a long silence.

For some reason, he actually felt that Osamu Dazai's seemingly random setting was very suitable for him, especially the grinning mouse, which completely stuck to his aesthetics.

Even so, his ability has not been awakened for a long time.

Three years is enough time to change a lot of things.

Yosano Akiko, who came out of the self-enclosed world, also joined the small circle of Osamu Dazai and Sakunosuke Oda. Coupled with the excellent bait Fyodor, the efficiency of hunting nightmares has increased rapidly.For a long time, the city of Yokohama has seen a sharp drop in the suicide rate because of the three of them.

I thought that daily life should continue like this, until Fyodor also awakened his ability and officially stepped into the world of people with supernatural powers.

However, no one will ever know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident.

It was a gigantic nightmare known as a ghost, the origin of which has never been verified.It wandered all over the world, bringing disasters again and again, and countless people died as a result.Because it can predict the future, no one has been able to solve it so far.

In addition to supernatural powers, he can also predict the future of Oda Sakunosuke.

The time when it came to Yokohama was too coincidental. At that time, Yosano Akiko had just received information about the nightmare that killed her boyfriend.Determined to take revenge, she went to the target location alone, and only two supernatural beings, Osamu Dazai and Sakunosuke Oda, remained in Yokohama.

The ending was not beyond Fyodor's expectations. Oda Sakunosuke and the nightmare named ghost died together, leaving Osamu Dazai who was seriously injured and unconscious, and received treatment in the intensive care unit.

In this case, he couldn't accept the healing from Please Don't Die, otherwise the commandment would be triggered, and all those who knew the truth would be ruined.

Fyodor, who could only witness this series of tragedies as a bystander, was vaguely aware of the invisible driving force behind the incident.

There is something that deliberately guides Yosano Akiko and Yosano Akiko to leave Yokohama, and at the same time drives away the nightmare named ghost, the purpose is to let Oda Sakunosuke completely solve it.

Fyodor had no idea how to comfort the young man his age.

It has been three months since Osamu Dazai was finally discharged from the hospital, and he even missed the funeral of Oda Sakunosuke.Yosano Akiko, who continued to pursue a certain nightmare, left Yokohama again, unable to hide the exhaustion hidden in her eyes.

The curly-haired young man, who had lost a lot of weight, ran to Fyodor's apartment alone in the middle of the night, threw himself into his arms and cried until he was out of breath.The Russian youth, who had gotten used to the opponent's personality for a few years, just hugged him back in silence, and a dark light of unknown meaning flickered deep in his purple eyes.

At that time, Fyodor actually thought that it might be good to continue like this.

The identities of the two were reversed, and Osamu Dazai, who had always been the protector, showed such a fragile side.

In the past, when Fyodor saw his smile without any haze, he would feel inexplicably nauseated, but now this situation has lessened.Now, when Osamu Dazai's demeanor shows unreserved trust, his first reaction is to hope that this situation will continue.

It seems that as long as the other party can stay by his side, instead of being in the opposite position, he is very happy to see it happen.

Perhaps the existence of people with supernatural abilities is doomed to be a tragedy. Other people with supernatural abilities who have been in contact with Osamu Dazai have also unilaterally cut off their contacts over the years, and they seem to have also died at the hands of Nightmare.

She didn't expect that it would be Yosano Akiko's turn next.

It was an unremarkable night, the moonlight was covered by gauze-like clouds, revealing only a very faint brilliance.There is no wind in summer nights, and the hot feeling fills the air everywhere. Even if you live in a high-rise apartment, you can't stop the intrusion of the sound of cicadas.

The dim night light at the bedside dispelled the darkness in the room, and it fell on the curly-haired young man's furrowed brows.He curled up in a ball on the bed, unintentionally posing in a very insecure position.

From the time when Yokohama had only Dazai Osamu left with a supernatural power, in order to protect Fyodor's safety, he often went to the other party's house to stay overnight at night.

For unknown reasons, the number of nightmares attacking Fyodor has become less and less, and it has rarely appeared again during this period.But for the sake of safety, Osamu Dazai still refused to rest assured that the other party lived alone, and insisted on staying with the frail young man.

The harsh ringing of the phone broke the silence in the room.

The expressionless Fyodor fished the other party's cell phone from the bedside, but what he saw was a blurred caller number.It has nothing to do with the quality of the phone, it is more like a virus.

The young man glanced at Osamu Dazai who had been plugged with noise-canceling earplugs. Coupled with the empty glass of milk with sleeping pills on the bedside, it was difficult to wake up at this moment even if he slept lightly on weekdays.

In order for Osamu Dazai, who was almost at the limit of his spirit, to sleep peacefully, he had exhausted his mind.

Fyodor held his breath, answered the very strange call, and heard Yosano's voice covered by noise.

[Don't let——zizi—use——zi—abilities——]

[That's——trapping—sizzling—sizzling—nightmare—it's——]

"With Xie Ye-san?"

Fyodor's expression gradually became serious. After several calls and no one answered, the blind tone of hanging up came from the other end of the phone.

However, before that, the ear-piercing sound like metal being crushed was the first to reach the young man's ears. If his guess is not unexpected, it should be that the other party's mobile phone was completely damaged.

Uneasiness completely enveloped his mind, Fyodor pursed his lips, and stared for a long time at the curly-haired young man curled up on the bed as if caught in a nightmare, his expression was gloomy.

He seemed to understand something.

Only when everything is connected in series can we see that this is a game.

The time I woke up was too coincidental. Three years ago, why did Osamu Dazai, who had been in a vegetable state for 11 years, wake up without warning when Osamu Dazai was traveling with his family?

Usually, the fluctuations of potential supernatural powers will be so small that they will be close to nothing. Otherwise, why Dazai Osamu and Yosano Akiko have lived in the same family for so many years, and they have not been able to detect each other's identity at such a close distance.

Why is it so easy for the other party to perceive me as a potential person?Then why, until today, there has never been a sign of his supernatural power awakening?

The incompatibility between the consciousness and the body is probably also due to this.

The owner of this body should have slept forever instead of being usurped by an outsider.

He was never Fyodor.

Over the years, Nightmare's actions followed his subconscious completely.In a subtle way, he tried to strip away all the important existences for Osamu Dazai.

The destruction of the family, the death of an important friend, and the fact that he will be attacked by nightmares all the time.In this way, all the energy of the other party can be completely occupied, so that he has no more private time to speak of.

For people with supernatural abilities, the iron law that they must never reveal their identities to ordinary people has successfully created an insurmountable gap between them and ordinary people.The only people who can communicate are each other, and only those of the same kind can fully reveal their secrets. The feeling of loneliness will always be with you like a shadow, and there is no day when you can give it up.

Fyodor walked slowly to the window, watching the scenery of the residential area not far away in the dark through the cold glass window.It seems that there is something wrong with the circuit. The street lights on the street do not know when to go out. Only a few residents who are used to staying up late will show some dim light through the windows.

If there are no accidents, the next one is...

Intense flames soared into the sky, and at that moment, the too dazzling light made the night look like day.It was followed by a roar like thunder, and the flames occupied the young man's entire field of vision, and even the glass windows kept shaking because of the violent noise.

Car alarms sounded endlessly, and the dark residential buildings in the distance were gradually lit up. Countless people got up because of the accident in the middle of the night, watching the flames soaring into the sky.

It was a blast.

Fyodor turned around with a frosty expression on his face, walked slowly to the bed, and gently stroked the cheek of the young man trapped in the nightmare.

Then you are alone.

The existence above the supernatural beings, who can customize the rules in this way, is the "self".Approaching Osamu Dazai, silently using the hands of Nightmare, destroyed all he relied on was "self".

Cold fingers gently ran over the lips of the sleeping young man, and he received a dissatisfied sob from the other party.Osamu Dazai smacked his lips in dissatisfaction, and slowly turned over on the bed, facing Fyodor whose demeanor suddenly became deserted.

The purple-red eyes were slightly closed, and the pale-skinned young man withdrew his hand, placing it on his chest.

It was this heart throbbing again.

He still doesn't know what he is. Since he can control Nightmare subconsciously, he probably can't be human.

He didn't quite understand what this kind of emotion that could make the eye sockets moist.
