"..."
Kawakami Wakana swallowed hard, her tone turning irritable.
Are you advising me not to be so persistent?
“If that’s how you see it, then think about it that way.” Dazai Osamu said indifferently, “However, you also know very well that Fyodor is not the kind of person who is easy to understand or get close to.”
“Dazai Osamu—” Kawakami Wakana said, seeing that Dazai Osamu was about to continue, “Aren’t you the same as him in this respect?”
"You're not going to lecture me with some grand principles, are you?" Dazai Osamu chuckled. "I didn't mean for you to stay away from him. It's just that if Wakana-chan feels lost and doesn't know how to get along with Fyodor, she can come to me anytime."
"—I have a special gift package prepared for that time."
Kawakami Wakai:?
She instinctively felt that it couldn't be anything good.
She wanted to ask Dazai Osamu a few more questions, but Kunikida Doppo's shout of "Fine, you're slacking off here!" came from the other end of the phone, and then the call was disconnected.
"..."
Putting away her phone, Kawakami Wakana returned indoors. The girl's family, Dr. Blackjack, and Pinocchio were all there, but Fyodor was nowhere to be seen.
Pino was the first to notice Ruoyi's return, and immediately ran to her side with small, quick steps, saying, "Fyodor-san has already left. It seems like something happened."
“Oh, right,” the little girl blinked, “he also asked Pinocchio to leave you a message.”
"Some pain is indeed necessary to endure. But there are also times when you know it hurts, but it's too late."
Kawakami Wakai: Huh?
Although she didn't have Fedia's sharp mind, she was still able to understand what Fedia was trying to say.
Does he mean for her to mind her own business?
Kawakami Wakana didn't know how she left Black Jack's clinic. All she knew was that as soon as she stepped outside, she called Hinata Natsumi and asked if she wanted to grab a drink.
The two arranged to meet at an izakaya (Japanese pub) near Shinjuku Station that evening. Picking up the menu, Wakana frantically ordered high-proof drinks, not explaining what had happened, just drinking non-stop. Hinata Natsu seemed hesitant to interrupt, simply watching her drink one glass after another in silence.
Ruoyi considered herself to have a pretty good alcohol tolerance. During a dinner with her research group in her junior year, she was the only one who remained sober. But even she couldn't withstand guzzling high-concentration alcohol like a cow. Soon, both her vision and consciousness became hazy. At the moment when she completely lost consciousness, she thought she heard Fei Jia calling her name.
He must be hallucinating from being drunk, right?
After all, Fedia himself had said that he didn't want her to interfere in his affairs.
Since it was just a hallucination of Fei Jia, no matter how nasty the insults were, it wouldn't increase her killing intent. So, fueled by alcohol, Kawakami Wakana took a deep breath and was about to start cursing.
Then she realized that there were still too few swear words in Japanese.
After going around in circles for a while, all she did was utter a few curses of "baka" and "aho," just like a young couple flirting.
Kawakami Ruoyi: "..."
“I love you!” she shouted.
The surroundings seemed to fall silent.
"Hahaha, you fell for it, didn't you—" Ruoyi hiccuped and laughed uncontrollably, "It's 'I love you' in Russian, which is—"
"Are you crazy?"
"..."
Half an hour later.
After taking the drunken and barely conscious Wakana from Hyuga Natsu, Gogol said with amusement to Fyodor beside him:
"Hey, Tuosi-jun, it seems like you've hurt this young lady countless times already."
Fyodor remained silent.
“By the way,” Gogol suddenly smiled and whispered in his best friend’s ear, “Dostoevsky, if you want to kill her, this is a good opportunity.”
"The problem is that her friend saw our faces."
“…?” Fyodor glanced at him sideways. “You seem to really want me to kill her.”
“Of course,” Gogol said curiously. “Otherwise, would you want to be brainwashed by your feelings for her?”
“If it really comes to the point where I have no choice but to kill her, I will do so,” Fyodor said coldly, “but not now.”
"..."
Watching his friend walk away, leaving him behind, Gogol helped Kawakami Wakana follow, muttering to himself, "So, you came here after getting the call."
"What's the Japanese word for this situation?"
"Oh right, he says one thing but does another."
…………
When she woke up, she realized it was already evening, and Kawakami Wakana realized that she had slept for almost a whole day.
Fortunately, because she slept for a long time, she wasn't too affected by the hangover. At least her head didn't hurt as much as she had imagined.
So she had no choice but to hurriedly call Hinata Natsumi to apologize.
"Nyan-chan, you're sober now?" Hinata Natsumi asked with a hint of amusement. "You were really drunk last night, everyone was praising me for evolving into a human, saying it's amazing."
"..."
“However—” Hinata Natsu paused, “This is the first time I’ve seen your Lucia boyfriend in real life! He seems to have an even more Lucia-like style than in the photos.”
Kawakami Wakai:?
"Fei Jia is here?"
"Of course I came." Hinata Natsumi pouted. "It's so late at night, and you're completely drunk. It's not safe for the two of us girls! My brother went to play in a match, so I had to ask your boyfriend to take you home."
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Ruoyi couldn't help but grab a pillow and start hitting it hard.
Ahhhhhh, how could that have been Fedya last night...?
Good news, Fedia hasn't reached the point of completely severing ties with her yet.
Bad news—
Last night, he seemed to have been scolding Fei Jia for at least half an hour.
Kawakami Wakana said she was a little afraid to face Fei Jia's current level of murderous intent.
That day, after much hesitation, Kawakami Wakana still wrote a new novel.
It seems that practice makes perfect. This time, she didn't struggle with what to write and finished it in just a few hours.
This is a story about "love and not love".
After entering high school, the protagonist, Jasmine, realized that her father seemed to be getting more and more distant. Even when she greeted him and talked about things at school, her father would only respond indifferently, as if he was listening, but it also seemed that his mind had already flown away to somewhere else. Later, he even stopped wanting to eat with his family.
Finally, on the day Jasmine graduated from high school, her father left home for good, leaving behind only one sentence—
"Don't look for me."
Jasmine hates her father, but fortunately, as a college student, she has more time to do part-time jobs, and her mother also has a job, so her life is not affected too much. However, a scar remains in her heart.
Ten years later, Jasmine, who had a career and a family, received a phone call informing her that her father had passed away a few hours earlier.
Standing before her father's tombstone, she finally posed a question—
"Dad, do you really not love Mom and me anymore, or do you just not want us to miss you?"
The novel ends here.
Without a second thought, Kawakami Wakana sent the manuscript directly to Fei Jia, only to discover—
She was blocked again.
"..."
"Damn it!!" She struggled to hold back, managing not to slam her fist on the laptop keyboard. In the end, all she could do was curse angrily—
“Sukabul”.
More than a month passed after that.
Kawakami Wakana tried making several video calls or sending emojis to Fei Jia, but she was never removed from his blacklist. She even went to the coffee shop where she first met Fei Jia to wait for him, but Fei Jia seemed to have anticipated her actions and never let her succeed.
Kawakami Ruoyi: "..."
Yes, Fedia really doesn't want her involved in anything related to him anymore, right?
At first, she was a little worried, but after a month, Ruoyi only had one thought left—
Who cares about you, baka!
As for Francis and the Armed Detective Agency—
She didn't know how the Armed Detective Agency had managed to get Francis to see the videotape. All she knew was that he had personally visited the agency one day in August, and that Lucy had returned to work at the Whirlpool Cafe.
This made Kawakami Wakai somewhat curious—
Now that Francis has given up on finding the "Book" and the "Group" has disbanded, Lucy-chan... doesn't she need to go back to her country?
However, when she saw the way Lucy looked at Atsushi Nakajima, she seemed to understand something.
She had no idea what had happened between Lucy and Atsushi during the group's battle, but this girl... had clearly become a fan of Atsushi Nakajima.
One weekend in mid-September, having finished her part-time job early, Kawakami Wakana originally planned to go for a stroll in Flower Street with Lucy before heading back. On the way from the Little Red Building to the station, there was a small alley. Since the station was accessible via the main road, Kawakami Wakana had never paid much attention to it. However, today she glanced at it by chance and noticed a familiar figure walking into that alley.
Kawakami Wakai:?
Fei Jia?
"Lucy, I think I see someone." She immediately said to the red-haired girl next to her, "My boyfriend?"
Lucy: Huh?
To be honest, Lucy had been working with Ruoyi Kawakami for a while and had never heard of her having a boyfriend. But seeing Ruoyi follow her with such certainty, and thinking that her special ability could be used to solve any problems, Lucy decided to step into the dark alley with Ruoyi.
But Ruoyi had just reached the corner when she subconsciously stopped, her expression frozen in shock.
“What’s wrong?” Lucy blurted out in her native language.
"Shh—" Kawakami Wakana told her not to speak yet, and after observing from the corner for a while, she turned around and said:
“Feijia… my boyfriend, Feijia, he’s been kidnapped.”
Lucy: Huh?
