Chapter 169 The Sorrow of the Fated



Hinata Hajime knew nothing, but he thought he could know.

For example, he could think about where everyone in the HOMRA bar went.

Although he has only been here for a short time, he has already gotten along well with the people around him. After Hinata Sou lied that he wanted to find Juzuki Tadoroki and return an important part-time job document that he left with them, those people pointed Hinata Sou in the direction based on their memories.

Perhaps it was because Hinata Hajime looked so sincere that no one suspected he was lying.

This made Hinata Hajime feel a little guilty.

However, the kings, especially the third king, the Red King, never care about outsiders, and the Homura is also a very ostentatious organization, so finding out their whereabouts is easier than imagined.

Just like that, Hinata Hajime stood in front of a building after the final prompt.

A hospital in Nanakamado, it doesn't seem like a big deal.

Hinata Hajime tilted his head, and at that moment, with a loud bang, this place that looked like just an ordinary hospital exploded directly, and the red air wave that rushed into the sky swept away all the ruins.

"What, what?" Hinata Hajime was startled. He took two steps back. "It exploded? Should we call the police?"

【calm down.】

"How can you stay calm now? This is a hospital with so many doctors and patients." Hinata Hajime began to look for his communicator in his pocket. "No, we need to call the police and the firefighters. Many people must have been injured in the explosion just now. If it continues, more people will be implicated."

"It might cause other problems. We have finally escaped the control of the desperate forces..."

"well?"

Hinata Hajime was stunned. He held the communicator and stood there in a daze. "What was I saying just now?"

[This is not our world. There won't be extreme expressions of hope and despair. Superpowers exist, and there will also be specialized rescue organizations.] Kamukura Izuru comforted Hinata Hajime.

"Yes, is that so?" Hinata Sou put down his hand and looked blankly at the blown-up hospital in front of him. He soon discovered that even after the explosion, no doctor or patient rushed out, as if the hospital was empty.

So, this is a place that is ostensibly a hospital, but actually has other uses?

Just as Hinata Hajime was thinking, there was a loud bang and the building exploded again. This time there were not only ruins, but the top of the building was directly blown into two pieces, and the top was shaking and about to collapse.

Hinata Hajime turned around and ran outside quickly. The next second after he ran out of range, the top of the building hit the ground with a loud noise. Snow began to fall from the sky. Hinata Hajime stared at the building in the distance. The snow fell on his head and melted on his long black hair.

"What exactly happened?" Hinata Sou murmured softly.

At this moment, a red light emerged from the basement of the building. The man in the front was Hinata Hajime. He had not been to the HOMRA bar many times, and every time he went, he would go to find Juushu Tadara. It was just that he had seen this man in the bar once.

The man was lying on the sofa, as lazy as a big red cat, drinking strawberry milk lazily.

Jushu Duoduoliang called him Zun or King.

Behind him, the figure of Izumo Kusanagi appeared, holding a little girl in his arms. The girl had her eyes closed and her long white hair hung outside. She looked very tired, because enduring the pain had exhausted all her strength. Even while curled up in Izumo Kusanagi's arms, she was still trembling.

Next came Jutsuka Tadara, Hatta Misaki, Fushimi Saruhiko, and the people Hinata Hajime often met at the HOMRA bar.

But compared to all this, Hinata Hajime couldn't take his eyes off the little girl.

Compared to the things around him, he saw a scene that made people frown. A black thing like a twisted ghost was entangled around the little girl. As Kusanagi Izumo walked, it was constantly dispersed and condensed, and it was always unwilling to leave the girl's side.

What is that?!

【Despair.】

[You said that girl was desperate? ]

[No, it was this girl who caused someone's despair.]

[So that's why Shi Shu has a bit of black aura on him? Because he's related to the girl? Oh, Anna, is she that Anna?]

Suoh-sou stopped and looked to the side, and the next moment his eyes met with Hinata Hajime's.

The wind mixed with snow blew over, Hinata Hajime's long black hair was blown backwards, and the white snow on his body quickly melted.

"Hinata?" Jutsu Tadara came out quickly and ran in front of Hinata Hajime, "Why are you here?"

Hinata Hajime looked at Jutsuka Tadara, after a moment he turned around and continued to look at Kushina Anna. Kusanagi Izumo looked down in confusion, Anna was still sleeping with her eyes closed, and her sleep was not sound.

"She..." Hinata Hajime looked at Anna, "She has something on her."

"What? What nonsense are you talking about?" Hatta Misaki said, "I don't see anything on Anna, right, monkey."

Fushimi Saruhiko looked at Hinata Hajime, and then he looked at Anna, "To the naked eye, there is indeed nothing wrong."

Can't they see it?

[Of course, ordinary people cannot see the fragments of despair. ]

[But if that’s the case…]

Hinata Hajime frowned slightly, turned around and left after a moment, his long black hair drawing an arc in the falling snow. Houmaru and others watched Hinata Hajime leave, and most of them looked at each other, not knowing what Hinata Hajime meant.

They are not very familiar with Hinata Hajime and most of them only have an ordinary impression of him.

He is a friend of Shishu Ge. He has amnesia and comes to the bar occasionally. He doesn't drink alcohol in the bar, but drinks juice like a child. Apart from that, their only impression of this person is that he has a good personality. No matter who talks to him, he will listen carefully no matter what is said.

It won't make people feel neglected at all.

How could such a person suddenly appear in front of the psychic education and research facility under the jurisdiction of the King of Gold?

And they said that Anna, who was rescued by them, had something on her?

But this was just an ordinary little episode. After being puzzled, everyone didn't take it seriously and hurried back home.

After returning to the bar, Kusanagi Izumo and teacher Kushina Honami talked on the phone and after discussion, they let Anna stay with Houmaira for the time being, because no one knows whether someone else will spy on Anna's strength and torture her in such an inhumane way.

On the second floor of the bar, Jutsu Tadara looked at Anna's sleeping face with a hint of thought in his eyes.

"What are you thinking about?" Kusanagi Izumo asked.

"Nothing." Jutsu Tadoroki held Anna's hand, "I don't know why, but I care a lot about what Hinata said."

Izumo Kusanagi thought for a moment, "Is it true that he said Anna had something?"

"Yeah." Shishu Duoduo looked at Anna with concern. "Anna has been sleeping since we rescued her. She hasn't woken up yet. I always feel like she slept a little too long."

"Don't worry, Anna is just too tired." Kusanagi Izumo comforted Jutsu Tadara, "If there was a problem, the Lord would have discovered it long ago, and would not have waited until now. Anna is a child. She has been enduring pain before, and finally she doesn't have to endure it anymore, so she was overwhelmed by fatigue and slept a little longer."

Jutsuka Tadara smiled and said, "I hope so."

However, the next day, Anna did not wake up.

Izumo Kusanagi comforted everyone that Anna was really too tired, but until the next afternoon, Anna was still sleeping.

She slept uneasily, frowning and making painful noises in her sleep from time to time, but she couldn't wake up.

Anna seemed to be trapped in a dream.

Izumo Kusanagi went to see a doctor, but even the most famous doctor didn't know what had happened to Anna. They gave Anna a comprehensive physical examination, and the results showed that there was nothing wrong with Anna except that she was slightly malnourished.

"Is what Hinata said true?" Jutsu Tadara looked at the sleeping Anna, "Is there really something on Anna?"

"Damn it! What the hell is going on?" Hatta Misaki stood up, "Totsuka-kun, where does that Hinata guy live? I'm going to look for him now!"

Jutsu Tadara shook his head, "I don't know, he seems to have found a place to live by himself, and we usually meet outside."

"What should I do?!"

"He's outside now." Fushimi Saruhiko suddenly spoke, and the surveillance outside the bar appeared on his computer screen.

Through the surveillance they could easily see Hinata Hajime standing there. He was wearing a brown scarf as usual. The snow outside was very thick. He stood quietly at the door of the store, seemingly not knowing what to do and feeling a little conflicted about wanting to come in.

But I still can't let go of the little girl who is surrounded by all these things.

Jutsu Tado stood up, "I'll go bring him up!"

Listening to the sound of Jutsuka Tatara coming downstairs, Kusanagi Izumo sighed slightly, "Where on earth did this person come from? I checked, he is not from here at all, there is no trace of him in Tokyo, but he and Jutsuka have a very good relationship."

"Is he an outsider who can synchronize with Anna? So he can see what's on Anna?"

"Don't worry about it." Zhou Fangzun sat on the chair next to him, his eyes looking at Anna, "Since he is a guy that Shishu thinks is a good person, then there is no problem."

Kusanagi Izumo sighed, "That's true. Although the Jutsuka guy looks like he has no temper, he is better at judging people than us."

Downstairs, Hinata Hajime stood in the snow. Because it was cold, he blew into his palms.

【It’s so cold.】

【You can wait for them to come to you instead of freezing here. 】

[But, I am a little worried.] Hinata Sou murmured softly, [Izuku, is that child really okay?]

Kamizuru Izuku spoke calmly, "If she is really the cause of the despair host's despair, then the despair fragment will definitely not let her die easily. Only if she is alive can she provide the despair host with stable despair stimulation."

[It sounds really chilling.]

At this moment, the door of the bar creaked open, Hinata Hajime blinked, and the next moment he saw Toushu Tadara.

"What are you doing standing here?" Jutsu Tado pulled him into the bar, "Come in quickly."

"Don't you think it's cold outside?"

After being pulled into the bar by Jutsu Tadara, Hinata Hajime trembled slightly due to the sudden temperature difference. He looked around and asked, "Are you alone?"

"Of course not." Kusanagi Izumo came down from the second floor. "Welcome, would you like something to drink? Oh, by the way, you can't drink alcohol."

Kusanagi Izumo poured a glass of hot orange juice for Hinata Hajime, "Would you like some drink?"

Hinata Hajime was a little surprised, "It's hot, won't it be sour?"

"Of course I will, but I can't help it. I only have orange juice here." Kusanagi Izumo smiled and said, "This is for you."

"So, can you tell me a little more about what seems to be going on with Anna?"
