"A baby tutor came to our house, but my mother didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Moreover, even though it was a baby, he casually pulled out a dangerous weapon like a gun."
“I felt like something was wrong with my world.”
Hinata Hajime looked at the boy in front of him who was confessing his feelings seriously and fell into deep thought. He began to think about the rationality of the existence of a baby tutor.
Superpowers are already very unscientific, and the change from a high school student to an elementary school student is also puzzling, but what the boy confessed is a combination of the two. Hinata feels that there must be something wrong with this world, but as to where the problem is, he has not yet noticed it.
So Hinata Hajime asked, "Are you filming a TV series?"
"No! This is reality!" The brown-haired boy looked serious, even a little aggrieved, "But it seems normal that everyone is serious. Sir, you also think it's abnormal, right?"
Hinata Sou smiled and then took a look at the list of visitors. The boy's name was Sawada Tsunayoshi, he was 14 years old and still in school uniform. He should be studying at the neighboring Namimori Junior High School.
The reason why this junior high school student came to find Hinata Hajime is because Hinata Hajime has now opened a Yorozuya in this world, yes, a Yorozuya.
Although Hinata Hajime hoped not to see Komaeda Nagito as soon as he arrived in the New World, his luck has always been bad, so the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was a marshmallow head greeting him. And to be honest, Komaeda Nagito is not easy to deal with, very difficult to deal with.
So when Nagito Komaeda suggested opening a Yorozuya in order to find clues to the Desperate Incident, he should have refused.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be treated as a famous fortune teller and have to listen to all kinds of people's complaints. He was so confused that he couldn't figure out many clues. The culprit had already escaped when he was surrounded by customers, faster than a rabbit.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world, so Hinata Hajime listened helplessly with his heterochromatic eyes as all kinds of people came to complain about their troubles and provided them with solutions.
"So?" Hinata Hajime asked, "You want the world to return to normal?"
"No, I know it's impossible." Sawada Tsunayoshi grabbed his hair and banged his head on the table with a bang. Hinata Hajime almost stretched out his hand to stop the kid's "suicidal behavior".
"How can I let them know that I really can't do it?!" Sawada Tsunayoshi's eyes filled with tears. "It's too scary to think that I can do it just because I am someone's bloodline, and to ask me to become that way!"
Hinata Hajime twitched his lips, "Proof that you can't do it?"
"Yes!" Sawada Tsunayoshi said seriously, "Sir, you can definitely help me!"
"Failed the test?"
"…Well, the reality is actually worse than this."
"Not completing tasks all the time?"
"Ribon has all kinds of terrible lethal weapons. It will kill you!"
"Then..." Hinata Hajime patted Sawada Tsunayoshi's hand seriously, "Call the police."
"well?!"
Hinata Hajime said earnestly, "Did you encounter the Mafia? Or were you entangled by the terrible terrorists? I heard that the Mafia is very concerned about young masters who are related by blood, but if you are harassed, you should still report to the police. The police will definitely help you."
After sending away the troubled-looking Sawada Tsunayoshi, Hinata Hajime stood at the door of the store and turned the opening sign over. Then he looked to the side and saw Komaeda Nagito, who was looking at him with an indescribable look behind the tree.
"Komaeda?" Hinata Sou said helplessly, "What are you doing now?"
"Of course we are going to carry out the desired plan. This is completely different from Hinata-kun staying here and listening to nonsense." Komaeda Nagito laughed.
"...Listen to some nonsense." Hinata frowned, "In the beginning, you should be the one who stayed here to listen to nonsense. It's because you always say terrible things that people keep complaining about you, so I came up here. I'm a little grateful."
"Haha, sorry sorry, I was just joking." Nagito Komaeda said, "How dare I disrespect the great Hinata-kun? I actually need Hinata-kun to help me clean up the mess. I am really useless. As expected, I am only suitable to be a useless scum and watch Hinata-kun's super high school level performance from the side."
Hinata Hajime: ...
I don't know what's weird about it, but it's really weird.
Never mind. Nagito Komaeda has always been weird.
"That boy just now seemed to trust you. As expected of Hinata-kun." Nagito Komaeda changed the subject. "He looked timid and might have been a victim of school violence. But in front of Hinata-kun, he was able to let go completely and talk about his troubles."
"As long as you are friendly enough, the other party will be able to notice it." Hinata Hajime opened the door.
Komaeda Nagito walked in very casually, "Is that really the case?"
"Um?"
"No, I was just saying that." Nagito Komaeda said, but his eyes were fixed on Hinata Hajime. "After all, I've thought about it for a long time, and I don't think that person wants his classmates to have any friendly factors, right, Hinata-kun?"
[Out of control, he is saying that you have a bad personality. 】
【Um.】
【He was actually right about this.】
【Chuang, you are really boring. 】
"Compared to this, what did you gain from this trip?" Hinata Hajime changed the subject, looking as if he didn't want to answer this question.
Komaeda Nagito sighed, "Really? It's still like this."
"Forget it, but there are no clues." Nagito Komaeda sat on the chair, "It can only mean that there is no despair event. Although I am just an ordinary person, I can't find the so-called despair by luck. It can only mean that such despair has not happened yet. It's great!"
Hinata Hajime took two cans of drinks, placed one of them in front of him, then opened one of them and took a sip.
He didn't care at all about what Nagito Komaeda said and accepted it quite calmly.
After all, this is Nagito Komaeda, a magical guy who can handle most things by relying on luck.
"I don't have any clues here. I've been here for a long time. I can't say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing." Hinata Hajime looked at the drink can in his hand. "I don't know if desperate incidents are breeding somewhere. It's really worrying."
"But compared to this, there is another matter that needs to be resolved." said Nagito Komaeda.
"Um?"
"It's past eight in the evening and I haven't had dinner yet." Nagito Komaeda looked at Hinata Hajime, "Hinata-kun, I'm hungry."
Hinata Hajime fell silent. After a moment, he pointed to the kitchen and said, "There are instant lunch boxes in there. Go eat them yourself. Don't expect me to cook for you."
"Hahaha, how could I possibly expect these? The instant bento is enough, thank you." Komaeda Nagito calmly picked up the drink on the table and turned into the kitchen. He didn't look strange at all, but Hinata Hajime was used to it.
After all, this is how Nagito Komaeda has been since returning to Jappavok Island, slightly broken, but mostly normal.
Hope he can be normal till the end.
[It's so tiring to deal with this guy.] Hinata Hajime complained silently, [Also, I need to maintain my ability all the time. I can relax in front of Nanami, but I can't relax in front of him.]
【You are worried that he will hate me. 】
[I know this is unnecessary. After all, Komaeda will not hurt you no matter what. But Komaeda Nagito is too persistent. If he insists on doing something, even if it will not cause any harm to us, it will definitely have some impact.]
[So I want to wait for a while and let you come out when necessary. 】
Hinata Hajime smiled as he said this.
Although Hinata Hajime is very rational in this state, he can even analyze the hindrance that Komaeda Nagito posed to his actions here and try to minimize this hindrance.
But as Hinata Hajime, he wanted to believe in Komaeda Nagito.
Trust your companions.
…
The next day, the sun was shining brightly. It was spring and the air outside was fresh. Hinata Hajime came early to open the door and then turned over the closed shop sign.
Today is the weekend, and there will probably be quite a few students coming. Based on our previous experience of dealing with despair fragments, despair incidents will also occur in schools, and there will be more news about students than expected. I hope to get good news today.
However, before Hinata Hajime returned to the store, a young man ran over with tears in his eyes.
Hinata Hajime recognized at a glance that this was the boy who left last night.
He was wearing casual clothes, and then he grabbed Hinata Hajime's sleeve and cried, "Sir! Calling the police is useless!"
Yes, Tsunayoshi Sawada really called the police.
Because Hinata Hajime's Yorozuya was really popular, everyone said that the methods he gave were really powerful and could solve the problem in one go. There was even a person with an average or lower level of academic performance who listened to his study troubles and was given a study method. In the next test, the person actually made it into the top ten in the class, and the whole class exploded instantly.
So after leaving, Tsunayoshi Sawada called the police hesitantly, saying that his mother had been deceived and that a terrorist had disguised himself as a tutor and forced the child to learn terrible things.
Although the police didn't believe it, they still came and were sent away by Leeborn!
"Why?" Hinata Hajime was surprised.
"Because Reborn is a baby! The police won't believe that a baby is a member of the Mafia!"
Hinata Hajime: ...
Just as he was frowning and thinking about how to solve the problem for Tsunayoshi Sawada, suddenly, he pulled the boy over. In the boy's dazed eyes, he looked at the wall next to him. On the wall, a baby in a black suit pulled up a black hat, and a chameleon was lying on the hat.
"Were they discovered?" Reborn looked at Hinata Hajime, "I just wanted to see who taught Tsuna to call the police."
"Li Baoen?" Sawada Tsunayoshi asked, "Are you following me?"
"You didn't notice it, stupid Tsunayoshi." Reborn jumped onto Sawada Tsunayoshi's shoulder, "You are really unqualified. How can a leader not notice that someone is following you?"
"I've already told you that I'm not a leader!" Sawada Tsuneyoshi retorted.
Hinata Hajime looked at them, and after a moment he spoke, "Is this the baby?"
"Yeah, that's right."
"But how did they do that?" Hinata Hajime looked at Reborn subtly, "This is totally unscientific."
Or is this also an extension of Despair? But without the aura of Despair.
"Can you please stop interfering?" Reborn and Hinata Hajime looked at each other. "I am a tutor from Italy, responsible for training Sawada Tsunayoshi to be a qualified leader. This is a responsibility that runs in his blood and he cannot escape it."
"What do you mean?"
"It means: his bloodline determines that he is the leader."
Amid the sound of Sawada Tsunayoshi's low retort and then being suppressed by Reborn, Hinata Hajime heard the sound of the door opening. He turned his head and looked behind him. A white marshmallow-head with hair that was even messier than before going to bed came out of the door. He looked at the person in front of him, who seemed to be still sleepy.
"Hinata-kun? What happened? It's so noisy outside."
"Ah! It appeared!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi pointed at Komaeda Nagito in amazement, "The legendary scary mascot of Yorozuya, a white devil that catches people and tells them scary thoughts!"
"Huh? Me?" Nagito Komaeda pointed at himself, looking a little surprised.
"Are you so ignorant of yourself?" Hinata Hajime said helplessly, "I've already told you that you've been complained about all the time."
"But why?" Nagito Komaeda touched his chin blankly. "I just expressed my thoughts. After all, they came here to tell me about their troubles. I just provided them with solutions. And most of them were nonsense. The troubles of ordinary people are really boring."
"…So you just ridicule them and tell them that they should be hopeful and make themselves even more miserable?"
Komaeda Nagito tilted his head. "What's wrong?"
Then he looked at the shivering Sawada Tsunayoshi beside him, and greeted him with a gentle smile, "Good morning, are you here to tell me your troubles? If it is your troubles, I will definitely listen to it with gratitude. Don't worry, as the hope, you will definitely overcome despair!"
"No, no!" Sawada Tsunayoshi took two steps back, "I'm leaving now! Sorry!"
After saying that, he ran away.
Hinata Hajime was certain that Sawada Tsunayoshi must have searched for a long time before coming here, and only came to make sure that Komaeda Nagito was not there, but he was still unlucky enough to meet Komaeda.
Nagito Komaeda looked at the boy's back, and after the boy fell unsteadily, he worriedly called out to him, asking if he needed help. Then Tsunayoshi Sawada got up and ran even faster.
As for Reborn, he seemed very unhappy with Tsunayoshi Sawada's fearful behavior.
But, compared to this boy...
"Your attitude towards him is very good." Hinata Hajime said.
"I heard your conversation just now." Nagito Komaeda nodded. "It's determined from his bloodline that he will be a leader or something. Great! Is he as talented as classmate Sonya or classmate Kuzuryu?! What would he be called if he was in Hope's Peak Academy? A super high school level leader?"
"That's amazing, Hinata-kun, you must be envious, right? This kind of natural talent is really full of hope. I was so lucky to meet such a person on the first day after returning."
Hinata Hajime: ...
【Why is this guy still like this? 】
