Seven years ago, in order to investigate Aramato and rescue the members of the Sheep Organization who were captured by the Port Mafia, Chuuya Nakahara was forced to temporarily work for the Port Mafia. However, he was considered a betrayal by the members of the Sheep Organization. Shirase and others cooperated with GSS to try to kill Chuuya Nakahara. Unfortunately, Dazai Osamu, who predicted and deployed in advance, wiped out all members of GSS.
Before leaving, Nakahara Chuuya saved the members of Yang's organization, so they survived for the time being.
At first they kept complaining about Chuuya Nakahara's "betrayal" and continued to dream that they would become stronger and stronger and oppose the port mafia, but they soon woke up from their dream.
Leibo Street is not a good place. No matter what, they are just a minor organization. In a cruel place like Leibo Street, they have almost no resistance after losing Chuuya, and are plundered and harmed by other organizations step by step.
The endless complaints came to an abrupt end, and they finally realized the importance of Nakahara Chuuya, and new whispers began again.
"If he had not insisted on cooperating with the GSS, he would not have been targeted by the port mafia."
"Maybe Chuuya didn't betray us at all, he just wanted to become the leader, that's definitely the case!"
"He killed the sheep!"
"He must be driven out!"
As fate would have it, Shirase and others guessed that Nakahara Chuuya would betray them and join the Port Mafia because of their distrust. Now Shirase was stabbed and expelled for this. The Sheep Organization even used this to please Nakahara Chuuya, hoping to get the protection of the Port Mafia.
Unfortunately, Nakahara Chuuya, who was forced by them to join the Port Mafia, never met them again, and their wish to be protected by the Port Mafia was dashed.
Despicable people are always despicable. They are more and more convinced that it is Shirase's fault. Even though they have driven Shirase out, they still bully him from time to time. Until now, the Sheep Organization has been destroyed in the Dragon War. Shirase wanders in the Raibo Street in a daze, and there is no moment when he is not resentful.
"You are the cause of all my suffering, Chuuya." Shirase looked at Nakahara Chuuya with half despair and half madness, "If it weren't for you, my life would definitely be infinitely better than it is now! It's because of your betrayal that all this happened. You are so good, a high-ranking official in the port mafia, living a superior life, hahahaha, it's all your fault."
"I must clear up this mistake, all of it, even if it costs me my life!"
Nakahara Chuuya frowned slightly. He felt a very indescribable feeling.
Having been in the Port Mafia for many years, he had seen people who collapsed under the pressure of life, but none of them had ever made Nakahara Chuuya feel like this. It was as if all the life had been drained out of them, and all the blood and tears were made up of despair. He frantically raised his own despair little by little.
It's enough to be locked up in a mental hospital.
"I don't care what you think." Nakahara Chuuya found it hard to equate the person in front of him with the Shirase in his memory. He could only frown and say, "This is work."
"Work for the Port Mafia?" Shirase scoffed.
His fingers moved slightly, and of course Nakahara Chuuya noticed the movement of his hands. His supernatural power was activated instantly, and Nakahara Chuuya pressed Shirase against the wall. Because of suffocation, Shirase's fingers loosened, and the phone fell to the ground with a crisp sound. He coughed while grabbing Nakahara Chuuya's arm, opened his eyes, and his pupils were filled with deep despair.
"Just take this away. It's really funny that the so-called wishing machine is just a game." Nakahara Chuuya picked up the phone that fell on the ground with his feet. The phone was crushed into pieces in his hand, and its original appearance was completely unrecognizable.
Shirase stared at his hands for a moment, then he smiled.
Why are you laughing?
Nakahara Chuuya subconsciously felt something was wrong. He didn't feel any danger, but he could clearly feel Shirase's malice.
This malice penetrated into his body like a needle.
The source of the malice is...
Nakahara Chuuya raised his head and saw the empty rooftop, the blue sky, and the occasional clouds flying by. There seemed to be nothing on it, and yet it seemed as if there was everything.
At that moment, with a bang, a palm-sized piece of iron was thrown over. In order to avoid the piece of iron, Nakahara Chuuya moved his body slightly, and his supernatural power was activated instantly. The piece of iron was frozen in the air by gravity, but at that moment, Nakahara Chuuya also clearly felt something brushing against his hair and falling to the ground.
"Great, I caught up."
"Mr. Chuuya, be careful. The person who is chosen by despair cannot be limited to one game. As the pathogen himself, even if the game's carrier prop disappears, he can still control his own game character!"
Hinata Hajime did not move forward. In the game interface in Dazai Osamu's hand, Shirase's game character was standing on the roof, with the weapon in his hand aimed directly at Nakahara Chuuya.
When he merged with the Despair Fragment, Shirase had become the game itself, and his game character no longer needed a phone to control it, but could act according to his thoughts.
Nakahara Chuuya widened his eyes slightly, raised his head and looked at Shirase who was pinned against the wall by him.
The white-haired young man stared at Nakahara Chuuya, still with a desperate and malicious smile on his face.
He opened his lips slightly in the pain of suffocation and said in a trembling voice: "Go to hell."
The game character shot an arrow again, and Nakahara Chuuya let go of Shirase instantly and dodged the arrow with his sixth sense. Shirase fell to the ground, he covered his neck and kept coughing and gagging, but his eyes were staring at Nakahara Chuuya without blinking, and Nakahara Chuuya clenched his hands.
"We can't kill him." Hinata Sou spoke, his voice calm. "Once he dies, the Despair Fragment will continue to look for a host and cause more trouble."
Nakahara Chuuya frowned impatiently, but he still stopped and slowly retreated away from Shirase's attack range. When he retreated behind the wall facing Hinata Hajime and Dazai Osamu, Nakahara Chuuya heard Shirase's crazy laughter. The sound was full of twisted satisfaction and collapsing despair, which made people subconsciously get goosebumps when they heard it.
"Mad man!" Nakahara Chuuya couldn't help but curse.
…
The Fragments of Despair will spread despair. When they merge with humans, they will amplify humans' despair to the extreme and gradually spread it, triggering despair events and even developing into self-destruction. The only way to solve this problem is to let the host of the Fragments of Despair regain hope, use hope to water the despair, and purify it into Fragments of Hope.
Fragments of Hope are the nemesis of all hopeless events.
So, how do we turn this person's despair into hope?
Hinata Hajime leaned against the wall, his face calm and his heterochromatic eyes reflecting the clouds in the sky.
[This person is different from Arikawa Ishiwa. Arikawa Ishiwa was in despair because of other people to a certain extent. His despair was because of his daughter, but Mr. Shirase’s despair was completely due to selfishness.]
[Selfishly blaming others for your own mistakes and letting yourself fall into this level of despair is, to be honest, really despicable.]
The voice of the god's throne is cold, [The swamp of evil. ]
【Isn't this what Mr. Dazai said before? 】
【Just the opposite.】 Kamukura Izuru said.
Hinata Hajime frowned slightly, [What?]
【Despair is not the swamp of the wicked, but the last fig leaf of the wicked. 】
Hinata Hajime lowered his head, and his light green right eye flickered slightly, as if he was moved by something.
"Hinata-kun?" Dazai Osamu's voice sounded behind Hinata Hajime, "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about how to do this." Hinata Hajime's voice was filled with helplessness, "Because I can't think of how to give this gentleman hope again. He has nothing that can be called hope, let alone let him get hope."
"It's not fair to let a pure evil person get hope for others, right?" Dazai smiled and said, "Hinata-kun, your job is really difficult."
Hinata Hajime looked at Dazai Osamu, his heterochromatic eyes not wavering at all.
"Whether it's the teacher in the orphanage or this Shirase, they are not good people. They can even be said to be evil people who deserve to be punished. But in order to save the others who are implicated, they must be given hope, even though they are so worthless."
Hinata Hajime looked at Dazai Osamu, and after a moment he shook his head, "There are two sides to the story, and it can't be said completely this way."
"Oh? Hinata-kun, do you have other ideas?"
“Hope and despair are not completely fixed words. Some people will become more courageous after facing more setbacks, and despair is just the driving force for them to move forward. Some people will collapse because of their inner fragility, and even good things will be thought of as bad things. Therefore, it is not to say that having hope is a good thing.”
Dazai Osamu raised his lips slightly, "Please continue."
"For those in despair, finding hope, finding a reason to move forward, regaining the hope of living, but discovering that they can never be free again, this must be a very scary thing." Hinata Hajime murmured to himself.
"Is this the legendary way of giving hope and then taking it away?"
Hinata-kun with heterochromatic eyes is a little more terrifying than imagined.
Nakahara Chuuya, who was two meters away from them, kicked a stone over and said, "I don't know what you are talking about, but if we make that guy normal, everything will be over, right?"
"You can think so." Dazai Osamu looked at Nakahara Chuuya with a smile, "Come to think of it, Chuuya was saved by Hinata-kun just now, I don't think I heard you thank him yet, come on, Chuuya, let me hear your voice of thanks."
Nakahara Chuuya looked at Dazai Osamu with disdain. He walked around Dazai Osamu and came to Hinata Hajime, "Thank you for what I said just now. And, I will take care of this matter."
"Mr. Chuuya?" Hinata Hajime looked at him, "Do you have any way to give him hope?"
"We have to give it a try." Nakahara Chuuya put on his hat, "Goodbye."
Looking at Nakahara Chuuya's leaving back, Hinata Hajime's eyes turned light green, his aura became gentler, and his personality became more friendly.
[God's throne, must the fragments of despair be watered by one's own hope? ]
【What do you want to say? 】
[Why must the person himself be given hope? If the host is Junko Enoshima, must Junko Enoshima be given hope as well?] Hinata Hajime's voice was a little doubtful, [In the fratricide where Junko Enoshima was, Naegi's hope successfully overwhelmed Junko Enoshima's despair, and in the end, hope won.]
So, why can't the hopes of other people purify the fragments of despair? 】
