Chapter 9



Yokohama is a port city that gives people a very prosperous feeling at any time. Even with the brutal suppression of the Mafia, there are murders that are like a thorn in the flesh and are difficult to eliminate. The ground is not affected at all, and the flickering lights illuminate the vast night as if it is daytime.

The same is true at the pier not far away, with flickering lights stretching out into the distance at sea. Standing at the highest point of Yokohama, there seems to be no difference between the lights and the starlight before my eyes.

Shi Bai likes this location very much. Whether it is the rising sun in the early morning or the setting sunset, it has a unique beauty.

If he had nothing to do, Shibai would be willing to wrap himself in the skin of Tsuruwa and stay here all day to watch the sunrise and sunset. After all, this kind of thing is never boring. As long as you find the fun in it, the sensations you get every day are different.

Tsurumaru Kuninaga loves excitement and new things, but that doesn't mean he always thinks about how to do shocking things. Tsurumaru, who doesn't like boredom, can always find new fun in the boring daily routine that is no different from the previous day.

After all, he is a sword that has experienced thousands of years of time. He knows better than anyone how to spend a long time. Tsurumaru Kuninaga is as his name suggests, like a real fairy crane, transparent, beautiful, and free to do whatever he wants.

Therefore, Shibai does not think that his behavior is ooc to this extent.

As for why I brought Alice here, part of the reason was to give Mori Ougai some scare.

Not to mention that Shibai's current body is a sword god, he himself is a powerful and sensitive judge. Even if the supernatural power here is not equivalent to spiritual power, Shibai can quickly perceive the connection between them and the status when using it.

When he learned about her existence from Dazai Osamu, he really thought of her as the daughter of Mori Gugai. But after meeting Alice, he immediately realized the connection between her and Mori Gugai, and that Alice was more like a collection of power, just like his current body, rather than a human.

"The view here is great, do you want to come over?" Shi Baiyang smiled gently and patted the seat beside him. He sat on the edge of the roof, his legs swinging in the air like a child. As long as Alice pushed him gently from behind, he would probably fall down without any resistance.

The altitude here is too high, even the air seems to have become thinner. The temperature at night is too low. If he pulls out the main sword from his waist and leaves it there for a while, a thin layer of ice may form on the blade. Fortunately, the two people present are not human, and their requirements for air and temperature are not as high as those of ordinary people.

Shi Bai didn't care whether Alice was coming over or not. He looked at the twinkling stars in the night sky and hummed a pop song he heard on the street today. In his eyes, which Alice couldn't see from her angle, there was an indescribable tenderness with a hint of nostalgia.

On the contrary, Alice, who had always acted like a willful girl, turned her originally clear and pure blue eyes into emotionless, mechanical and empty ones after Shibai hinted that he knew her identity.

Mori Ougai did not give her any corresponding response to deal with such things.

When Shibai didn't like Alice, or rather, when he realized that she was actually non-human, his favorability started to increase by +1+1+1.

"Come to think of it, Alice really gave me a big scare!" Shi Bai said, "Although it's not quite accurate to say this, but a child like Alice is like my sister."

"So you are also a stupid lolicon!" Finally, the blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl made a new reaction. She put her hands on her hips and said in a dissatisfied tone.

"Lolicon..." Shi Bai turned around, his eyes revealing genuine confusion, "Do you mean you like little girls like Alice?"

Well, the sword master should not be familiar with these words. Shibai skipped this in his mind and made a corresponding reaction. But then again, Dr. Mori really can't be judged by appearance.

Alice looked at Shibai suspiciously, then snorted and explained in the simplest terms she understood: "Just like Rintaro, the weird uncle who always asks me to change into a little skirt!"

"I shouldn't be considered an uncle, right?" Shibai thought for a moment with a serious expression, then smiled like Mikazuki Munechika and said, "Even if you count by the age of swordsmen, I'm just an ordinary old man!"

Alice: Why do you seem so proud?

"Besides, I don't know much about girls' clothes. If Alice likes it, I can take you to buy new clothes tomorrow! If you feel bored, then it would be great if we go out for snacks, right?"

Shi Bai's smile was cunning, and he added, "We'll use Dr. Sen's card!"

Alice's eyes lit up, and she jumped to sit next to Shibai: "Okay! Let Rintaro cry with his empty little treasury!"

“Desserts are everything!”

"This must be a big shock for Dr. Sen as well." Shi Bai said with a smile on his face.

+++++

It was obvious that the task of the leader of the Hong Kong Black was to monitor Mori Ouwai, but he never paid attention to what Mori Ouwai would do every day after leaving the clinic. At most, he would paint and play with Alice when she was in the clinic, or go out for a walk when he was bored.

Tsurumaru Kuninaga's name is too famous here, but what is equally famous is his dress - once he changes out of his iconic clothes, even if he walks around the streets of Yokohama without covering his face, no one will recognize his identity.

This is probably what is called the dark moon.

"Mr. Tsurumaru..." Dazai Osamu just opened the door of the clinic and saw a young man in a red sweater sitting on the floor, holding a colorful bottle between his index finger and thumb as if facing a powerful enemy. Dazai Osamu used his perfect eyesight to guarantee that he definitely saw the three big words "Hair Dye" on the bottle's packaging.

Shi Bai did not turn around, and continued to squint his eyes to look at the disposable hair dye, and asked in a casual tone: "Dazai-kun?"

"Have you ever thought about changing your hair color?"

Dazai paused, as if he didn't hear the question clearly: "What?"

Shi Bai did not answer, but said in a voice full of surprise, admiration and disbelief: "Human inventions are truly amazing!"

"You know what, Dazai-kun!" Shibazu held the hair dye spray in front of Dazai's eyes as if he was holding a treasure: "Just press here and spray lightly like this - even the color of your hair can be easily changed!"

...Of course I know this, it's common sense, right? It's surprising for a sword, but the question is, "I remember that you went out with Alice today, Mr. Tsurumaru?"

Why would I buy something like hair dye?

Shi Bai answered casually, "Because Alice said that as Dr. Mori gets older, she is worried that he will become bald like the greasy uncles on the street."

"So?" Dazai Osamu seemed to have guessed something.

Shi Bai took out several large bottles of hair growth agents from the bag beside him. "So we helped Dr. Mori select several hair growth agents that are said to be very effective! We also bought some food and medicine that can prevent hair loss. Alice also said that she wanted to give Mr. Mori a surprise!"

“…Pfft.” Dazai Osamu looked away, lowered his head, and put his fist in front of his mouth.

Shi Bai just pretended not to see it, and continued: "Then I saw this super interesting thing on the same counter that is said to change the color of hair!"

Dazai Osamu also calmed down his expression and said with a smile: "So Mr. Tsurumaru, do you want to change your hair color?"

"If the crane changes color, it will surprise everyone." Shi Bai twisted a bunch of hair in front of his eyes, eager to try it.

Dazai Osamu was equally interested in this: "Let me help, Mr. Tsurumaru!"

When the hair dye was first opened, there was a very pungent smell, and Dazai Osamu and Shibai frowned subconsciously. But this small problem was not difficult for them to overcome, not to mention that human sense of smell is also adaptable.

Compared to messing around on his own, with Dazai Osamu's help, at least it looks more normal - if you don't look at Dazai Osamu spraying colorful hair dye everywhere in the room.

At this moment, as Tsurumaru Kuninaga's assistant, he was already of great help by not going up to add any more money.

For the sake of fun, Shibai didn't even notice what color hair dye Dazai Osamu took. He closed his eyes and completely handed his hair over to Dazai Osamu. Rather than trust, it's more like the mentality of [Tsurumaru Kuninaga]. No matter what the result is, he can accept it. The more surprising the result is, the more interesting it makes him feel.

In the end, when everything was over, after Dazai Osamu said it was done - Shibai didn't even have time to pay attention to the color of his hair, because Mori Yuu appeared at the gate with a look of despair on his face.

“What the hell is going on! Dazai-kun, Tsurumaru-kun——!”

Dazai Osamu's hands were covered with Mori's medical plastic gloves, which were also dyed with various colors. He tilted his head innocently and said in his usual tone: "This is an interesting scare, Mr. Mori!"

After hearing Dazai Osamu's answer, Shibai's eyes began to wander and he felt a little guilty, because he felt that he seemed to have accidentally corrupted the originally good child (?).
