Chapter 145 Infinite Loop Hospital—Hinata



There is only one reason why Mikako Takeda fell into despair, that is, she could not accept reality.

She could not accept that her mother left her when she was very young, nor could she accept that her father, who depended on her for everything, died so easily, so she was deceived. The more unwilling and sad she was, the more deeply she was deceived, and step by step she has reached her current state.

Nagi looked blankly at Takeda Mikako, who was sitting on the ground with her head lowered, with confusion in her eyes.

"Why did she suddenly become quiet?" Nagi asked Nagito Komaeda, "Just now, she was quite excited."

"Well, maybe she realized her problem?" Komaeda Nagito said, looking at Nagi. "By the way, Nagi, why do you seem to be confused about many things? Come to think of it, after you were transferred to the hospital, did you come here alone? Where are your parents?"

Nagi blinked, "I don't know."

"Huh?"

"We rarely see each other, and I've always lived alone, so I don't know." Nagi lowered her head and tightened her hands, "So, I don't really understand."

Nagi looked at the nurse who was sitting on the ground and crying.

She did not understand the meaning of family. Parents did not mean much to her. She had never had the feeling of being dependent on any relative, and she had no close friends. It was normal for her to find it difficult to understand when she suddenly saw a person who did so many terrible things for her dead father.

Nagito Komaeda understood something from her few words, and he nodded without asking any further questions.

"It's okay, there's no need to feel sad about it." Nagito Komaeda said softly, "It doesn't matter if your family is incomplete, unhappy, or even unable to have the same wonderful things as other normal families."

"When you grow up a little bit, you will find that there are actually a lot of people in this world. As long as you keep waiting, you will definitely meet the person you want to meet."

"Haha, that doesn't sound like my style, but I really think so."

On the other side, Hinata Hajime is still trying to convince Takeda Mikako, but Takeda Mikako is still in pain.

Things are difficult. Hinata Hajime looked at the fallen man with a hint of subtlety in his eyes.

[In fact, I knew from the beginning that this matter would be difficult.] Hinata Hajime murmured in his heart, [The person closest to Takeda Mikako is her father, but it was also her father who made her fall into despair. After making a big mistake, she did not have enough courage to accept this mistake, and she was even less able to pay the price.]

[Fragment of Despair had already calculated that she would not dare. ]

【A common problem among ordinary people. 】

Even children would not dare to tell the truth after doing something wrong for fear of being reprimanded by adults, let alone a mistake that resulted in the loss of several lives.

[…Speaking of going out, do you know how to get out? ]

【have no idea.】

[Huh?]

[You have to understand that even if we are favored by talents, we are just ordinary people, not supermen. ]

Hinata Hajime fell into deep thought, "Doesn't that mean that if Takeda Mikako insists on not accepting reality and insists on making this time repeat, then even we will be trapped in it, and we might even lose our memories in the end?"

【Um.】

[Don't answer so lightly.] Hinata Hajime was helpless.

Thinking of this, Hinata Hajime looked at Takeda Mikako again. Although he knew that things would most likely develop in that direction, Hinata Hajime still hoped to see a different ending.

In fact, at that moment, she understood better than anyone that things were irreversible, but the outcome of this incident was not something she could bear.

Fear, terror, panic, all of this completely overwhelmed her.

What to do? What to do?

During the three days of reincarnation, time did not restart, but only reset everyone's memory, controlling everyone in the hospital. Those critically ill patients who died were like this because of her. Originally, those people still had a chance to return home alive.

It's all because of her!

But what to do?

The dead cannot be resurrected. What has happened has no way to remedy it. If this is really the end, when she returns to reality, she will face things that she is simply unable to face. Her father is dead and her life is completely over.

What should I do? What should I do?

Mikako Takeda clenched her hands tightly. Her mind was in a mess, with terrible noises everywhere, and her mind was full of what kind of punishment she would face after leaving.

You might even encounter radical family members of patients, and get hit on the head and bleed, hacked, or beaten to death.

She deserved it, but she was afraid.

So scary, so scary...

Just then, a voice appeared in her mind.

【The reality is so scary. 】

【It would be better to stay in this cycle forever. 】

Mikako Takeda suddenly raised her head.

[As long as you stay here, you won't be hurt, and you won't be blamed. Even those who know your identity will be trapped inside. That way, no one outside will know it was you who did it.]

But, but if that happens, those patients who might still be saved will also... die.

[But if you leave, everyone will know you did it, and then you will be killed. How terrible.]

You are obviously lying to me!

[I didn't lie to you. Miracles will definitely happen. It's just that you don't want to wait any longer. As long as you stay here, everything will be solved. Listen to me. Keep waiting. Time keeps repeating itself. Don't listen to them.]

Mikako Takeda's eyes flickered, and she whispered, "Really? Can you wait a little longer?"

"If we wait a few more days, will a miracle really happen?"

Hinata Tsuyoshi stood up, with caution in his green eyes. He watched the countless black mists pouring out from Takeda Mikako's body, and a strong sense of despair enveloped Takeda Mikako completely.

Still can't change?

In fact, Hinata Hajime almost knew what to do from the beginning.

It would be a good thing if Takeda Mikako really accepted the reality. If she did not accept it and let the reincarnation continue, he would not continue to be entangled, but would choose to clean up the Despair Stars as quickly as possible, because things cannot continue to get worse.

Whether it is the patients and their families inside the hospital wing, or the family members outside the hospital wing who have already noticed the disease, it will create greater despair as if it is spreading.

If the source is not cleared up, it will only spread like a virus until it gets out of control. By then, even government departments may be dragged into it, and it will become a second despair war.

So, we cannot allow them to continue to spread.

Even if the Despair Fragment escapes and emerges from the second Despair Elder.

Komaeda Nagito behind him obviously noticed the change in Hinata Hajime's attitude. He sighed and shook his head.

"I never thought that things would develop to this point. It's so unfortunate."

As a companion of Hyuga Hajime, they have wiped out countless desperate remnants together, including the time when Hyuga Hajime used Enoshima Junko's "relics" to bait the desperate remnants. Although Komaeda Nagito always bites the bait with those desperate remnants, it is also because of this that no one knows better than him how decisive Hyuga Hajime is.

As a combination of Hyuga Hajime and Kamijou Izuru, he has the kindest personality and a gentle smile to everyone, but at the same time, he can judge in an instant what to do and when, and act without hesitation.

No one would think he was cold-blooded. Even with blood on his body, his smile was still like the warm morning sun.

"Wait, wait a minute!"

Nagi ran over, and Hinata Hajime and the blue-haired girl looked at each other. Nagi looked at Hinata Hajime with a little hesitation in her eyes, "Well, then, can I have a try?"

Hinata Hajime blinked, "You?"

"Yes." Nagi nodded. "Mukuro-sama said that I have the qualifications to be an illusionist, so I thought maybe I could use this to help."

Hinata Hajime thought about it, and after a moment he glanced at his phone. It was three o'clock in the afternoon, which was still early, so Hinata Hajime nodded, "Of course."

"I'll do my best."

"Okay." Hinata Hajime took two steps back, "I'll leave it to you."

Although Nagi didn't know what happened, she could still sense the seriousness in their words. This was not a game, but a war where they were gambling with their lives. Both the strange Mr. Komaeda and the gentle Mr. Hinata were working hard for this.

Lord Hai also said: The end of the six realms of reincarnation is too lonely, don't go there.

So, she also wanted to do something.

Nagi closed her eyes, and an indigo flame appeared in her hands. The flame condensed into a familiar trident in her hands. The flame burned behind her. Behind the fluttering blue hair, Hinata Hajime saw Rokudo Mukuro's smiling face in the flame.

As if he had noticed Hinata Hajime's gaze, Rokudo Mukuro turned his head and looked at Hinata Hajime.

That glance made Hinata Hajime feel that something was not right.

"Master Mukuro, what should we do next?" Nagi looked at Takeda Mikako in front of her, "What should we create with the illusion?"

"Create memories." Rokudo Mukuro stepped forward, hugged the girl from behind, and grabbed the trident with his hands. "Illusions confuse the real with the fake. They can seize other people's consciousness and manipulate their souls. She is just an ordinary person, not strong. Invade her spiritual world and grab her most important memories."

Nagi nodded vigorously, she spun the trident, and the indigo flame instantly burned onto Takeda Mikako.

"Ah!" When Mikako Takeda raised her head, she saw flames coming towards her face. She screamed and shrank back. She closed her eyes subconsciously, but did not feel any burning pain.

Until a familiar voice sounded.

"Mikako."

"Dad... Dad?" Mikako Takeda suddenly opened her eyes, and the moment she opened her eyes, she saw her father. He looked so healthy and so young, with the most beautiful smile on his face, and he stretched out his hand towards her.

"Dad!" Mikako Takeda rushed over and found that she had penetrated her father's body directly.

At this moment, a little girl ran over and threw herself into her father's arms.

That was herself as a child.

"What is going on?" Takeda Mikako looked at her hands, "Am I dreaming?"

But questioning will not affect anything, the situation continues.

"Dad, today we were assigned a text in school, asking everyone to write about their dreams."

"Really?" The man touched the little girl's hair, "What did Mikako write?"

"I want to be a doctor!" the little girl shouted, "I want to be the best doctor. I want to save patients like my mother. Then, no one will lose their mother like Mikako. Dad, I don't want everyone to be as sad as I am."

The man was stunned for a moment. He looked at the little girl and her eyes turned red. Then he forced a smile.

“That’s great.”

"Right!"

"Then let's make a deal with Mikako." The man pointed his finger. "Let's agree that Mikako must be a patient who helps others and remember why she became a doctor, okay?"

The girl nodded vigorously, "Yes!"

"I'm proud of you." The man hugged his child. "My daughter will definitely be the best doctor in the world."

Mikako Takeda looked at her father, tears rolling down her cheeks.

However, his daughter did not become a doctor, nor did she save patients. She was even thinking about letting things continue to go wrong in order to relieve herself.

She was not worthy of being his pride.

"I'm sorry." Takeda Mikako murmured, choking with sobs, "Dad, I'm sorry."

The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it, so Mikako Takeda's defense still needs to be untied by her father.

She cried like a baby.

She wanted to cry out all the grievances and pains and hide all the despair and fear in her heart. She suddenly understood one thing: if her father was still alive, he would definitely not want her to torture herself and innocent people for this.

Her father was such a kind man, why should he be criticized after his death?

It's all her fault, it's all her selfishness.

If she had accepted the reality from the beginning, if she had understood from the beginning... her father would never come back.

She finally accepted it.

Saying goodbye to my father at this moment, I will never see my relatives again for the rest of my life, and there will be no future.

Mikako Takeda fell to the ground and fainted, tears from the corners of her eyes fell on the ground, and the moment the tears fell, white light spread out. Nagito Komaeda keenly discovered that the people in the hospital building had stopped moving, and the next moment, someone screamed.

Recovered?

Hinata Hajime quickly came to the ground. He tried Takeda Mikako's breathing and confirmed that she had just fainted. The trident in Nagi's hand disappeared. She was gasping for breath and sweat was dripping from her forehead. Hinata Hajime nodded at her and Nagi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh? It's over?" Rokudo Mukuro murmured in Nagi's spirit.

As an illusionist who has been able to delve into other people's spiritual space and even manipulate other people for many years, no one understands spiritual things better than him. At the moment when Mikako Takeda fell into a coma, he did feel a special power. Although he could not see it, that power did exist.

So, Hinata Hajime did not lie to him, there was something called a wish-making machine here.

"Kufufufu, wouldn't it be too boring if it ended like this?" Rokudo Mukuro opened his hands and communicated with the residual power after being purified. "Although it's only a little, let me see your truest appearance."

Illusions are real and fake. As long as you believe in your heart that it is real, then the illusion will become real. Once you find out that it is fake, then the illusion is useless.

The reason why Kamijou Izuru was able to restrain Rokudo Mukuro was because he knew very well that it was fake. His analytical ability supported him, allowing him to constantly find flaws in the details.

But, can he find it now?

Rokudo Mukuro merged the illusion with the residual power, appeared from Nagi's body in an instant, and directly wrapped up Hinata Sou who was caught off guard.

The indigo flame burned directly onto Hinata Hajime's body and immediately penetrated into his skin along the surface of his body.

"What?" Hinata was surprised.

The next moment, Hinata Hajime found himself forcibly exchanging control of his body with Kamukura Izuru.

Under the effect of the illusion, the black hair was pulled out little by little and soon fell to the knees. The pair of red eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness. He stared at Rokudo Mukuro like that with an extreme sense of oppression.

"Huh?" Nagito Komaeda was startled. "What's going on? Kamiya-kun?"

"So that's how it is." Rokudo Mukuro spoke in a tone of understanding, with a subtle tone in his voice, "So that's how you are."

"You are the one who turned yourself into Hinata Hajime."
