Chapter 14
When Shen Du Jianliu opened his eyes, his body, which had gradually recovered its strength, was lying in the hospital ward.
The bomb device tied around his waist disappeared, and the blood-stained clothes were taken off and replaced with clean white hospital gowns.
The dense barrage of bullets flashed before his eyes, making his brain clearer.
[Wow, has Shen Du woken up?] 】
[Oh my god, the live broadcast room is finally open! 】
[I have been squatting all night, and rushed in as soon as I saw it open]
Is there a hospital around? Is it over? 】
[We hope Liuzaizai is okay!] The live broadcast was turned off after you fainted last night. I was so worried.]
[Thank God, Shen Du is fine, the damn little bastard Zhi is useless]
…
It turns out the live broadcast room is closed.
[System: Since you have fainted, I will help you turn it off. ]
[System: Anyway, you used to turn it off when you went to sleep in the apartment or took a shower. What a waste of so many views. ］
The tone of the mechanical voice that has not been online for a long time is a bit regrettable. As the AI of Live Room No. 2, it will "manually" manage the room from time to time, but it is not always online.
The live broadcast is still in the testing stage. It is very busy and usually it and Shen Du Jian Liu do not disturb each other.
"Thanks."
Shen Du Jianliu thanked the system in his heart.
After all, he had no idea what the situation was like after he lost consciousness, and he wasn't sure what the scene would look like.
If fainting causes the opposite effect and leads to the spread of despair, that would be absolutely intolerable.
[Why did Shen Du vomit blood last night? I'm almost scared to death]
[Is there anyone who can analyze what happened yesterday? I have been holding it in all night.]
[Scared to death +1]
[Kuroshiki's mental state is worrying. He used black mud attack on Miryu. Analysis completed.]
[At that time, only the other side was blown up. I think Zai was testing Shen Du. He actually knows how to control his own life and death.]
[So the bomb on Dazai was just a bluff, just to deceive Shen Du, test his thoughts and push him away from himself? 】
[A deeper interpretation, maybe Zai was actually asking for help from Shen Du, wanting him to care about him and not give up on him no matter whether he was dead or alive. Shen Du also gave him a strong medicine: Okay, then I will die for you]
[Ah, Dazai, stop humiliating yourself. Shen Du is such a good person! 】
[My poor treasure, already in such a miserable state, he still has to accept Dazai’s temptation]
[Speaking of which, does Shen Du have the ability to replace items? 】
[Zai is really weird and evil, especially during the mafia period]
[Shen Du doesn't have a tendency to self-destruct. It seems that he has been living a casual life since the uncle died.]
[Heartbroken seeing the flow! 】
Because the live broadcast was turned off in time last night, the commentators were unaware of the follow-up of Shen Du's fainting.
The clock hanging on the wall showed 9:40. The sky was bright and the empty ward was unusually quiet. It was several minutes before someone pushed open the door.
"Ah...you're awake."
Tachihara Michizo walked into the room with some fruit and looked at the patient lying on the bed with a complicated expression. The white-haired boy's hair was slightly messy, and there was no excess fat on his thin jaw. His face was pale, and it was obvious that he had not recovered yet.
"You don't know how scary you were last night. The cadre from before suddenly took you to find the old man who was finishing up. I happened to be there, and both of you were covered in blood... Were you affected by the enemy's special ability?"
Shen Du Jian Liu: "..."
It turns out that Dazai saved himself, and it seems that the action was effective.
"But there are no wounds on that Dazai-sama's body. They are all stained with your blood."
Michizo Tachihara sat directly on the chair in front of the bed, picked up an apple he had brought with him, took out a small knife from his pocket and easily peeled off the thin skin. He seemed to be very skilled in using the metal blade.
As he was shaving, he glanced at Shen Du Jian Liu's expression and said, "If you ask me, you are quite appreciated. You can ask the cadres to arrange for someone to take you to the hospital."
"I heard that Lord Zhongyuan, who is also known as one of the 'double blacks', doesn't receive this kind of treatment. He is often thrown to the side of the road after completing his mission."
…
Considering the reality of literary adaptations in this world, perhaps this "Mr. Nakahara" and the "Chuya" mentioned by Akira are the same person.
I haven't seen Chuuya's last name in the barrage, but the name Chuuya Nakahara is well-known in the Japanese literary world.
Shen Du Jianliu looked at the blue bracelet on his sleeve thoughtfully.
He did not forget to look for the other party's target, but his identity as a new trainee of Black Lizard was quite limited.
"And the hospital found that all of your organs were showing signs of failure. They had originally issued a critical illness notice. I don't know what the Dazai-sama said in there, but the doctors continued to use medical equipment."
"Who would have thought that you would actually get better overnight."
Tachihara Michizo kept talking and sighing, while using a knife to cut the peeled apple into large pieces.
"Shendu, who are you?"
His brown-gold eyes moved across the delicate and sickly face of the white-haired boy.
Although it was said in a light-hearted tone, the air was eerily quiet for a moment.
Shen Du Jian Liu: "..."
"Well... let me make it clear first, I don't mean to take care of you."
Tachihara Michizo looked away, changed the subject and handed over the apple: "It's just that I have received help from Mr. Eguchi before. We are both Black Lizards. I have been in the opponent's ten-man team before. I just helped him to check on you."
"I just bought some Fuji. Eat it."
[Hey, Tachihara is quite tsundere]
[I was originally indifferent to him, but now I find him quite cute]
[Family members, don’t forget Li Yuan’s identity… He is a traitor]
[I suspect he has doubts about Shen Du's identity and want to report it to the authorities]
【What? Is this guy a traitor? 】
[What's wrong with a traitor? At heart, he is a mafia among mafia! 】
[Wow, so after Uncle Eguchi's death, he also left a bond with Shendu.]
[Tachihara is so nice. It's so healing to see the two of them interacting. A new bond is a new hope.]
Shen Du Jianliu scanned the barrage expressionlessly, reached out to take the apple, and politely said to the red-haired boy: "Thank you."
The cold voice sounded a little stiff in the ward. He thought for a moment, then tilted his head and added.
"It's so kind of you?"
"Varied……"
Tachihara Michizo suddenly choked, raised his arms and rubbed the goose bumps on his arms uncomfortably, and the tips of his ears changed color slightly: "Hey, why are you so cheesy!"
"Hmm? What's corny?"
An abrupt voice interrupted the conversation between the two people without warning.
A handsome young man with soft and fluffy hair walked into the ward, with one hand in his pocket, his iris-colored left eye fixed straight on the two people not far away.
Tachihara Michizo was startled and instantly stood up from the chair in front of the bed, lowered his head and stepped aside respectfully.
"Did I bother you?"
Dazai Osamu walked towards the bed with a smile on his face. His steps were very light. When he passed by someone standing at the wall, he glanced at him casually: "You seem a little afraid of me."
"Or... be alert?"
“…”
A drop of cold sweat fell on Tachihara Michizo's cheek, and he denied it in a low voice, "That's not true."
"Mr. Dazai."
Shen Du Jianliu spoke calmly. He sat up on the bed and his sincere tone drew the black-haired boy's attention back: "Thank you very much for last night."
Dazai Osamu: “…”
"…Ji Liu-kun, you are really strange. You are thanking the person who made you become like this."
Tachihara Michizo behind him had already slipped away, and the youngest cadre in history didn't care. There were so many people in Port Mafia who were afraid of him, it would be strange if he remained calm.
The handsome black-haired boy's attitude was no different from last night, except that he paused in his steps as he continued walking forward.
After a while, Dazai Osamu did not choose to sit over after all. Instead, he stood near the bed and said with a smile: "Do you remember what happened in the hospital last night?"
"That's really unbelievable. All the injuries healed themselves to perfection at an extremely fast speed. It's simply called a medical miracle—"
Shen Du Jian Liu: "..."
It seems that an answer must be given.
He reached out and touched the earrings he had put on before he fainted. Every time he released all his talents, he would lose at least 10 years of his life.
It was probably even worse last night.
Because his body cannot repair itself faster than his abilities can overwhelm it, he must wear a restraint at all times.
Kamado Miru actually doesn't mind his identity and talent as "Super High School Level Hope" being known, but it's a bit troublesome to explain, especially when he comes to a different world with a different worldview.
The system has a relevant confidentiality agreement, and he cannot actively reveal the existence of the live broadcast room to others unless the other party knows it himself.
"and……"
Dazai Osamu's soft voice continued to sound. He quietly stared at the sickly complexion of the white-haired boy. His slightly nasal tone revealed a certain significance in the ward where only two people were.
"Jianliu-kun should know that his abilities are not supernatural powers, right?"
He emphasized the pronunciation of the two words "each item".
"Um."
Shen Du Jian Liu's expression remained unchanged. He knew long ago that the other party possessed the supernatural power "No Longer Human" which could eliminate all supernatural powers.
If the desperate person is really curious about him, he is certainly willing to meet any needs of the other party.
This is existential meaning.
The white-haired boy thought carefully about his past experiences, considering how he should answer. However... thinking of the failure of the first experimental subject "Kamizura Izuru", he suddenly fell silent.
In the subsequent investigation, it was found that the senior's identity was exposed, which caused dissatisfaction and violence among the preparatory students under the instigation of people with ulterior motives and the catalysis of a specific background, leading to the spread of despair throughout the world.
He had to be careful about this.
"I don't remember."
Shen Du Jian Liu lowered his purple eyes and said in a slightly lower voice: "I'm sorry, the biggest impression in my mind is only a cold operating table."
He could only reveal so much.
[Has Shen Du lost his memory?] ? 】
[What does operating table mean, what happened last night or... ? 】
[My poor Jianliu, I hope he has not been subjected to any human experiments]
[As expected... the live broadcast company said at the beginning that they would select anchors with outstanding abilities from each world]
[No wonder Shen Du always looks so bad, what kind of human experiment did he go through?]
[I remember that Nakata also came from a laboratory]
[We see that the streamer is really miserable, despite this he still does good things every day and keeps kindness to the world T^T]
There was another long silence in the ward.
"Really?"
No one knew what Dazai Osamu was thinking, or whether it was different from the speculation of the barrage. The handsome black-haired boy did not seem to expect Shen Du Jianliu to answer anything. He just sighed lightly at the end of the voice: "Jianliu-kun, have a good rest."
"Boss already knows what happened yesterday. He told you to stay in the hospital without any worries."
"Just submit the report later."
"OK."
Shen Du Jian Liu nodded without objection. He thought for a moment and added enthusiastically: "Do you need me to write one for you as well?"
"...You really never forget to find things to do. I have already verbally reported my report to Mr. Mori. You don't have to write it yourself. You can just go to him in person."
Dazai Osamu's expression became a little subtle for a moment, and he narrowed his eyes again, and this time the look he gave the white-haired boy was mixed with a bit of narrow scrutiny and ruthless coldness.
"I'd say, the time was very short at that time, and no normal person would think of replacing the bomb on themselves."
"Why on earth would you do that?"
"You don't really think you'll get anything out of dying for me, do you?"
[Because Jianliu is a very kind person!] 】
【Zai: Wow, this guy is such an idiot】
[Shendu is really good to Zai... But he is also good to passers-by and cannon fodder. Thinking of this, I feel relieved.]
[Do you want to be friends with Zai? It feels like they are the same age.]
[Maybe Jianliu realized that Zai was the one who needed help the most, and wanted to take on his pain]
“…”
If you put it in the other person's words, yes.
Because the other party is a hopeless person, and he is the hope of the super high school level.
Moreover, his body has been developed beyond the limit of human beings, but his brain power has not. This may lead to the brain just wanting to save the other person, but the action has gone a step further. When he came to his senses, he practiced his subconscious thoughts and directly replaced the bombs on the two people.
None of this matters, Shen Du Jianliu is always ready to sacrifice.
He scanned the comments calmly, but unfortunately he couldn't say this directly, otherwise some desperate people might even be angered.
The ward was silent for a few seconds.
Shen Du saw the boy's white eyelashes blinking slightly and looking up innocently. He carefully reached out his hand with blood vessels transparent enough to be clearly seen, controlled the strength and gently grabbed the hem of the black-haired boy's coat.
"Because I want to be friends with you?"
“………”
"May I?"
“…………”
Dazai Osamu didn't say anything.
Dazai Osamu had a subtle expression and turned and left.
He sneezed violently, as if he hadn't heard it. Then, with a whoosh, he reached out to the door of the ward as if he was being chased by a vicious dog.
Before leaving, before he could say a few words, the young man suddenly bumped into Oda Sakunosuke, who was standing behind the threshold with a slightly dazed expression.
The two people looked at each other at the door.
