"Suspicion is just suspicion. There is no unprovoked malice in this world." Hinata Hajime said, "Not everyone would put themselves in this kind of mood."
Nuo looked at Hinata Hajime. There was no emotion in her blue eyes. She just looked at him like a calm bird, completely different from the one Hinata Hajime saw when he came here three days ago.
At that time, she was full of madness, with intense despair surging in her spirit. Now, she was so calm, without even the slightest hint of despair.
Even like a spectator quietly watching a play.
"You are really a very pure person. I was once such a person." Nuo lowered his head. "I also believed in human beings and believed that this world is kind. Even if they are invaded by malice, they will always know what they should do. There will be people who understand me."
"But I was wrong." No laughed, "Life is a very wonderful journey. Since we are born into this world, we will get many tests, or in other words: get a lot of hurt."
Hinata Hajime looked at her, "Are you seeking revenge?"
"Maybe." No closed the book called Lily. "The world is full of contradictions. There are not many people as pure as you, and there are many people like me."
"I know your book was stolen. I know this is unbearable for a writer, but please think about it carefully." Hinata Sou tried to convince her, "No matter what, those readers who bought the book really like the book and the story you wrote."
Nuo looked at Hinata Hajime and asked again, "Have you ever lost something important?"
"I've lost a lot of important things." Hinata Hajime's answer was exactly the same as before.
Nuo smiled, "It seems you haven't lost yet, congratulations."
"May you never lose anything important."
The next moment, Nuo's figure slowly disappeared in the air. Hinata Hajime tried to grab him, but failed. Nuo disappeared in the air like an illusory image, and only the book named Lily fell to the ground.
Hinata Hajime was a little surprised, but he immediately looked around to make sure there were no obstructions or irrelevant props.
When picking up the book from the ground, Hinata Sou remembered what Bourne said before he came in.
He hit No's leg, but No was unaffected, as if he had disappeared.
Hinata Hajime stepped back cautiously. He looked around and made sure that there was no one around before he walked to the bench next to him in confusion. He sat on the bench and opened the book in his hand. Although the author of this book was not Nuo, Hinata Hajime saw Nuo's name on the title page.
That word was added after the author.
[Izuru, can you figure out where Nou went? ]
【She didn’t leave.】
【Um?】
[I have countless ways to disappear from that place without a trace, but none of them fit the environment at that time. She has no props, unless she uses the so-called illusion.]
"But if they used genjutsu, I wouldn't fail to notice it." Hinata Hajime murmured, "Although I'm not a Derushi, at least I used my talent state, so I wouldn't be able to have someone disappear in front of me without me noticing at all. Even my super high school level intuition is useless."
"Then she must have used other methods to communicate with me normally without actually having contact with me."
【Genesis, this world has the definition of soul.】
"Soul?" Hinata Hajime was stunned for a moment. "I do know that the flames on Tsunayoshi's body are called the power of the soul, and that he turned into flames to protect his family, but I have never heard of anyone being able to have their soul leave the body. This is a bit too hard to imagine, and it's not scientific."
"And compared to this, why does she keep emphasizing that I am a pure person?"
[You have encountered hopeless things, even made wrong choices, lost important people, and even your own life was wrong, but you did not give up, nor did you fall for it, but still did what you could do to the best of your ability, so you are a pure person. ]
"That's it?" Hinata Hajime leaned back on the bench. "Then I feel that many people are pure people. Everyone has something they want to stick to."
【A small number of people.】
"But she's really calm." Hinata Hajime flipped through the book in his hand. "It's not easy. If a person falls into despair and madness, it's a little easier to deal with, because she has the root of despair. As long as you eliminate this root, you can find the root of despair and remove the root. But she is different."
"She knew exactly what she was doing, and even from her words, she seemed to know that what she was doing was wrong, but she was determined."
"I am very determined to follow the path I have set."
Hinata Hajime closed the book in his hand and said, "Anyway, let's check the author's information first. I feel like something must have happened after her book was stolen. She wasn't desperate when the book was first stolen, but she was two years later."
"There must be a reason for this."
With this in mind, Hinata stood up. He used a communication device to contact Sawada Tsunayoshi, who quickly picked up the call.
It seemed that the people had been appeased. Sawada Tsunayoshi looked almost the same as before, with a gentle face and a smile as always.
"Mr. Hinata?"
"Tsunayoshi, help me find a person named..." Hinata paused, then he raised the book in his hand and took a look at the author's name, "Ivy, or maybe a pen name, probably in this North District base."
After listening to him, Sawada Tsunayoshi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have someone retrieve the data from the North Base right away, and I'll send you a copy."
"Thank you. How are you doing?"
"It's been handled, but we can't go in to look for them for now." Sawada Tsunayoshi sighed, "It seems that someone inside is saying that I used them as bait to attract Nuo. Although most people don't believe it, when that small group of people came to explain, no one stopped them. Should I say that the current situation makes them too cautious?"
"I guess some old-timers are interfering. I didn't expect them to interfere even at this time."
"So I'll leave it to Mr. Hinata for now. You came here ten years ago, and no one knows you, nor does anyone know the relationship between you and me. I was originally going to let Rokudo Mukuro do this, but Rokudo Mukuro was entangled by Shiran's people and couldn't come back for the time being."
Hinata Sou nodded, "Okay, I'll pay more attention."
After hanging up the phone, Sawada Tsunayoshi's information was sent to him in a short time, and Hinata Hajime retrieved the information of a woman from it.
Ivy is her real name. She is a young writer of considerable age and has written only a few novels. Her most famous novel is "Lily", which was published two years ago. She has not written any good books since then. However, her husband is a member of the Vongola family, so he is also in the North District base.
Hinata Hajime was suspicious when he met Nuo. Why did she choose this place?
If according to Tsunayoshi's idea, she was going to defeat Vongola with this, then why didn't she do it? Instead, she used her own image to read a book every day, and was seen by countless people. After being discovered, she did nothing. As she said, she just sowed the seeds of doubt.
The power of the Despair Fragment does not stop there.
So there must be some reason why she came here. It was not until she saw this book that Hinata thought: Maybe it has something to do with this book.
Sure enough, he really found the author of the book in this area.
Hinata Hajime stood up with the book in his hand and walked towards the location he had just seen in the information. But the moment Hinata Hajime stepped into the residential area, a bomb fell from the sky. With a bang, the bomb exploded, and the next moment Hinata Hajime saw a man in a black robe appearing in the sky.
"It's the Dark Curse! The Millufiore family is here!"
“Run!”
"Help!"
The bomb flew over quickly. Hinata Hajime looked at the people who were running away from him in panic. He didn't pay attention to them and looked up at the sky.
He didn't feel the need to hide, as the bomb hadn't hurt anyone, and after all, Tsunayoshi was still outside and hadn't left.
Sure enough, just when the bombs were about to fall, a man appeared in the air. He was wearing a black cloak, which swept all the bombs away. A flaming lion stepped on his shoulders. Sawada Tsunayoshi floated in the air with a cold look in his eyes.
"Don't you think you are too shameless to attack ordinary people, Bai Lan?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. The main reason is that I know you wouldn't show up if I didn't do this." Bai Lan walked out of the crowd. "Besides, I don't seem to have hurt anyone."
Sawada Tsunayoshi stared at him. "So, the head of the Mirufiore family wants to see me? Then you can invite me normally, right?"
"That would require the Tenth Generation of Vongola to accept the offer."
Hinata Hajime calmly shifted his gaze and began to look for the person he was looking for among those who were fleeing in panic. Byakuran in the air looked down, her eyes fixed on Hinata Hajime, as if she had noticed his gaze. Hinata Hajime raised his head, and in the flying black hair, he seemed to see the man's sharp eyes.
Sawada Tsunayoshi noticed his gaze, he looked back, and the next moment he saw Hinata Hajime.
He felt a little uneasy, but he wanted to stop Bai Lan first rather than Hinata Hajime, hoping that Mr. Hinata could really find more information down there.
He didn't continue to look at Bai Lan. The reason was indeed the man named Bai Lan. His hair was white and spiky, and it looked very fluffy. Well... it reminded him of Nagito Komaeda.
Why does Nagito Komaeda prefer friends with hair as weird as his?
Anyway, Hinata Hajime left, and Ivy should be nearby. Her address is here, and the explosion just now must have frightened her and made her run away.
At the moment he was searching for people around him, there was a loud bang. Hinata Hajime's eyes widened slightly. He looked in surprise as a second explosion occurred at the location where the explosion had just occurred. With a loud bang, a woman staggered and fell to the ground, and was about to be hit by the bomb.
Hinata Hajime's eyes turned red instantly, and his long black hair was blown up by the air wave. He rushed over and pulled out the woman who was caught in the explosion.
With a bang, Kamijou Izuru shook his head, shook off the dust on his body, and then put the woman on the ground.
The woman in his arms was already frightened silly, her eyes were staring blankly, and she didn't know where she was looking. Kamukyou Izuru stood up, and with a click, the book that was previously in his arms fell to the ground with a crisp sound. The frightened woman was finally startled, and she looked at the fallen book blankly. When she saw the name, her pupils suddenly shrank, and she looked frightened.
"I'm sorry." The woman's voice was very soft and low, and her tears fell instantly, "I'm sorry, Nuo."
Kamukura Izuru looked at the woman and the face in the file, which was exactly the same, and said, "You did something wrong."
"This is my fault, I'm sorry." Ivy trembled, "I didn't know she was Nuo, I just thought she was an ordinary netizen, accompanied me to create and work hard together, and even asked her to write an article for me to add to it, so I'm sorry!"
"I shouldn't have deleted her as a friend and never contacted her again after I knew she was Nuo. Even so, I still used what she wrote in the book."
"I'm just, so scared."
Ivy coughed. She was still injured by the explosion. Her head was buzzing and she didn't know what she was saying.
"Everyone calls her out in the literary circle. I have been with her for so long, so I should know that she is not that kind of person. However, I still blocked her."
"……I."
Ivy fainted and fell to the ground, tears streaming down her eyes and staining the ground.
Kamiya Izuru ignored her, he just stood up and looked at the explosion site next to him.
In the flames after the explosion, the woman was wearing a white dress and her long golden hair looked messy. As the flames scattered, her blue eyes were calm. She just stood there quietly, not caring at all that the flames had burned her skirt, and didn't care that her hair was also on fire.
Not only Kamuzura Izuru, but even Sawada Tsunayoshi and Byakuran in the sky noticed her presence.
"Do you think humans will regret it?" Nuo tilted her head, her blue eyes were emotionless, but her voice was very soft and gentle, which matched her outwardly weak image very well.
A book appeared behind her. When the book was opened, a black aura spread out, and a violent aura of despair surged.
Kamiya Izuru looked at her, and there was no fear in his red eyes.
“It turns out that humans can regret.”
Noh murmured, "That's great."
