People are in Yokohama, the vest is fully open

This--

I never thought that the third option would be this. Judging from the memory of 'Edogawa Ranpo', Mori Ogai should also be one of the 'protagonists' in this world.

When Hoshino Yu and the others are performing tasks, in order not to have too much impact on the world, they usually use character cards to obtain energy from the world's "protagonist" for conversion.

If "Gojo Satoru" really chose "Pinch Mori Ogai's head" at this time, then he will not be far away from failing the mission and being repatriated and fined.

'Wujo Satoru' silently made a small black account for the Alchemy Department and the card prototype, and then he chose option B with his trembling heart in resignation.

Although attacking Alice, a 'little girl', would make his already bad image even more irreparable, compared to the other two more suffocating options, 'Gojo Satoru' still had to compromise.

Forget it.

Anyway, after he was forced to annoy the Armed Detective Agency and beat him up violently, the card 'Gojo Satoru' had no positive image at all.

【Choose success】

Just after 'Wujo Satoru' made his choice, he felt that his consciousness was bound and pulled out like it was wrapped in rubber. 'Gojo Satoru' watched 'self' move from the first perspective.

Before Mori Ogai could finish his inquiry, he was interrupted by 'Gojo Satoru'.

The mysterious white-haired boy stretched his waist and lazily stood up: "...I say you."

"It's so noisy."

The beast that seemed to be taking a nap finally opened its scarlet vertical pupils unbearably, and its keen sense of danger caused Mori Ogai's expression to change suddenly.

Mori Ogai hasn't figured out what 'Gojo Satoru' wants to do, but this doesn't prevent him from stepping back on guard and silently taking out the scalpel, standing side by side with Alice who came slowly: "Sir?"

"Evil thoughts are overflowing, bug."

As soon as the words fell, the figure of 'Gojo Satoru' suddenly disappeared, and Mori Ogai's hair was slightly lifted by the airflow.

Before Mori Ogai could see the movements of 'Gojo Satoru' clearly, his heart suddenly felt a palpitation that was hard to ignore.

Immediately afterwards, a sound like a balloon being popped came from behind Mori Ogai's side.Mori Ogai's heart suddenly went blank, and the link with Alice suddenly broke.

...'Alice—? '

Shocked, Mori Ogai suddenly turned his head to check what happened, and happened to see the flashing blue light under the 'Gojo Satoru' sunglasses.

those eyes...

Cold and irritable.

Almost temperatureless.

——Eyes that are not at all human-like.

Just being looked at by him like this, it's like being frozen from the brain to the soul.

It wasn't anger, just unbearable restlessness.

He looked at Mori Ogai not as if he was looking at a human being, but as if he was looking at some ants who were overwhelmed.

Time seemed to have stood still, and the world became extremely silent at this moment. The terrified screams of the clerk and the loud noises all disappeared, and were replaced by silent blankness into silence.

Mori Ogai hadn't felt this kind of adrenaline surge because of the fear of death for countless years.

he will die.

This is the idea that quietly appeared in Mori Ogai's stagnant brain when he saw the eyes of 'Gojo Satoru' that seemed to glow.

This conclusion seems so absurd and unbelievable, but Mori Ogai's heart can't raise even the slightest hope at this time.

He...would be killed, killed by a boy without a fight back.

The wind chime at the door of the dessert shop swirls slightly due to the surge of air when the door is pushed, fluttering and falling.

"Jingle Bell......."

The erratic and crisp sound of wind chimes seemed to come from the far end of the world, passing along the auditory nerve to Mori Ogai's brain, awakening his frozen consciousness.

"What happened? Just now... what was that thing?!"

"Sir—!! Are you all right, sir?"

The surrounding voices poured into Mori Ogai's ears again like a tidal wave, and only the back of 'Gojo Satoru', who disappeared for a moment when he left, was left on his retina.

"...This is really true," Mori Ogai could hear his stalled heartbeat, the pressurized blood surged, mixed with the beating heartbeat like a drum, and it was extremely loud: "The youth of today...."

Mori Ogai's lowered eyelids covered the heavy color in the dark red pupils. He lowered his head and stared at his fingertips that could not be restrained from trembling because of fear or excitement: "It's really surprising."

.......

.......

Leaving the dessert shop, 'Gojo Satoru' walked several blocks away from the neighborhood where the port Mafia and the Armed Detective Agency were located.

——Regardless of whether he is blessed by luck today, he doesn't want to see any "protagonist" in the world again.

The night breeze was blowing, 'Wujo Wu' turned into an unknown alley with no people at some point.The city of Yokohama has gorgeous high-rise buildings, clean green roads, and dilapidated rugged alleys without street lights.

The sewers flowing with sewage and the neon lights shining on the top of the tall buildings coexist incoherently. The dilapidated darkness of this city is like mildew on the back of a gorgeous tablecloth.

Stepping on the sunken mud puddles, 'Wujo Satoru' was not stained with the slightest bit of mud.He took out the coin that he was carrying with him, and thought about the reverse in his heart, "Gojo Satoru" immediately tossed the coin in his hand high with a flick of his fingers, then raised it with one hand, and grasped it with open five fingers.

'Gojo Satoru' spread out his palm, and a silver hundred yen coin lying face up quietly in his palm, it faintly refracted the shimmering light under the hazy moonlight.

"...What are you doing?" 'Gojo Satoru' frowned slightly, turned the coin and put it away again. He couldn't figure out why he had the misfortune to meet him if his 'ability' didn't go wrong. To Mori Ogai: "... Can this level be called lucky?"

When 'Gojo Satoru' left the dessert shop, he just picked up a soufflé.

He took a sullen bite and continued walking aimlessly.

"...Click." A crisp but subtle cracking sound came faintly from the depths of the alley far away.

The sound of chewing and the sound of some liquid "gurgling" came out faintly, intermittently and strangely.

The cracked floor tiles and mud pits in the narrow, dirty and dilapidated alleys were uneven, without any light, and it was too dark to see anything clearly, including the ground under your feet.

However, the "Wujo Satoru" who was wearing sunglasses walked through the dark alley like walking, and walked to the source of the sound without hindrance.

This is the corner of the alley, where you can vaguely glimpse the prosperity and excitement of the commercial street at the other end of the alley.

But the corner a few steps away is dark and gloomy... like another split world.

It was a monster in a hospital gown.

No need for light, or even approach, 'Gojo Satoru' can clearly see the scene at the dumped garbage bin in the distance.

In the stinking rubbish dump, there is a monster in a hospital gown lying on something greedily eating, its back has a deformed bulge, and its 'face' is densely covered with thick hair and tiny blood tumors. I don't know what it looks like, but I can only see the densely packed fangs exposed when it chews.

Its food is a woman, a woman whose body still has life reactions, her eyes widen in despair, her body curled up and lying down abnormally.

The woman's back was bitten, exposing her bones. Judging from the wound, she was attacked by a monster when she was still alive.

But she didn't choose to turn around to resist or run away, but like a clam opening its shell, revealing its soft inside, she bowed her body and let the monster eat it.

'Wujo Satoru' knew why, he 'saw' a child, a baby girl who was still sleeping soundly in the swaddling womb, her mouth was tightly covered by a woman.

'...It's delivered to your door. In the world of "six-eye analysis," "Wujo Satoru" looked at the woman's painfully distorted face and the sleepless baby with an uncontrollable anger in his heart, but his intention to attack seemed to be blocked by a firewall. Like the wrong instructions that were filtered out, they rose up repeatedly and disappeared without a sound.

The inherent rules that belong to the card are vaguely sensed by 'Gojo Satoru'.

——'I'm in a bad mood and don't want to work. '

In the narrow alley, the stink of blood and rotting garbage was suffocated by the sweltering heat, which made the impatient look of 'Gojo Satoru' even colder.

—'It's disgusting. '

At times like this...

Why... at such a time, the special rules are not triggered at all?

...It doesn't matter, as long as you are attacked at this time......

With the character of 'Gojo Satoru', he can definitely fight back.

and so--

Hurry up...find me——!

'Gojo Satoru' watched helplessly as 'I' gradually approached the monster that was eating violently step by step.

As if sensing something, the deformed monster stopped eating and turned its bloated head to lock on the 'Gojo Satoru' walking towards him.

However, the deformed monster did not launch an attack as 'Gojo Satoru' imagined, but seemed to sense danger.Its limbs were tense, its body leaned forward slightly and crawled low, vigilantly did not move forward.

There was no sound of the monster chewing for a while, and the alley was extremely quiet, except for the noisy noise from the end of the alley in the distance, there was only the friction of leather shoes on the mud bricks.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Seeing that the distance with the monster was getting closer, the nerves of 'Gojo Satoru' became more and more tense.

It wasn't because the scene in front of him was terrifying to ordinary people, but... the monster remained in place without any movement until he was allowed to pass by.

The night was dark, and the silver moon hung high in the sky to illuminate it, making the faint stars even more dim.

In Yokohama at night, there are many tall buildings and colorful neon lights shining brightly.

The bustling crowd shuttles through the bustling night market and this dark and dirty alley seems to be in two completely different worlds.

alley.

The white-haired Shenzi didn't seem to have seen this horrifying scene at all, and he didn't stop at all.

'Wujo Satoru' ate the soufflé slowly, and kept walking on his long legs, ignoring the faintly swaying shadows on the side of the road.

As he turned his back on the gradually relaxed monster step by step, the heart of 'Gojo Satoru' gradually sank.

"...Eep——" A slight whimper sounded in the quiet alley, the sound was extremely subtle, if it wasn't for the five senses of 'Wujo Wu' to be called abnormal, He might not hear at all.

'Wujo Satoru' didn't stop.

The baby who was tightly hugged by the woman didn't know whether it was because of the discomfort of being hugged tightly, or the smell of blood from the tip of the nose woke up from sleep.The movement of her mother covering her mouth clearly made her feel uncomfortable.

The baby girl frowned, opened her mouth with difficulty, and began to cry in a muffled voice: "...Wow!"

——Liuyanzi, who was about to walk out of the alley, stopped.
