Hinata Hajime was not completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world.

He could sense the outside world subtly and roughly understand Kamizuru Izuru's thoughts, but most of the time he was in a confused state, with his consciousness sealed deep in his mind, unable to connect with the outside world or communicate with Kamizuru Izuru.

Under the influence of despair communication, they are like positive and negative poles separated by a layer of thick cardboard. They are obviously attracted to each other, but cannot sense each other.

Until the fragments of despair were cleared away, with a click, a ray of light splashed on Hinata Hajime, and he finally opened his eyes.

The moment he woke up, Hinata had a lot of thoughts and a lot of information flooded into his mind. After constant thinking, he decided to talk to Kamijou Izuru.

【What do you want to talk about?】

[Let's talk about this incident. Of course, I'm not talking about the despair incident.] Hinata Hajime smiled and said, "I want to talk to you about what happened after I was accidentally eroded by despair this time. After all, this is a very strange thing.]

Hinata Hajime and Kamiza Izuru are the same person. Even though they have different consciousnesses, they exist in the same body. After Hinata Hajime was involved in a desperate incident, it was not only Hinata Hajime whose valuables were stolen, but also Kamiza Izuru.

They are in a state of empathy, connected in consciousness, like the positive and negative poles of a magnet, naturally attracted to each other and fused together. It is impossible for one person to be hurt while the other remains unharmed.

Therefore, the result of them both suffering from despair was that Hinata Hajime's consciousness was imprisoned deep in his mind and unable to escape, while Kamijou Izuru controlled his body, and the two's consciousness were separated.

This was not caused by the desperation of one individual, but the result of the combined desperation of both of them.

[I am a little surprised. It is normal that my pursuit of talent would lead to such a result, but I didn't expect that you would care about me.] Hinata Hajime's voice was complicated, [We are obviously the same person, but there seems to be a lot between us that we don't know each other.]

And of course hiding it from another person.

【Because we are two completely opposite people. 】

Kamijou Izuru leaned against the wall, the morning sun shining on him. He looked up at the sun calmly, his voice without a trace of warmth.

[Whether it's thoughts, feelings, or even goals, we have nothing in common. From the moment I was born, it was destined that we would never be the same person.]

[But...] Hinata Sou whispered softly, [But, I want to be you.]

Hinata Hajime wants to become Kamizuru Izuru, so he accepted the human experiment of Hope's Peak Academy because of the temptation of his talent. He wants to become a super high school level hope with all talents.

On the contrary, Kamijou Izuru has all the talents in the world, but he has no interest in it. He looks at this world as if he is looking at air, and nothing can make him happy. Therefore, sometimes he wants to be like Hinata Hajime, a guy who will not be bored with the world even if he has talents.

They have everything that the other lacks. They are the two poles of a magnet, the epitome of extremes.

It is a shackle that can never be shaken off.

However, they simply could not be each other.

Whether it's Hinata Hajime, whose consciousness was wiped out during the experiment, or Kamijou Izuru, who is unable to have emotions.

"I want to be you, but I can't be you."

[How shameless.] Hinata Sou murmured, [Even though it has come to this, you still can't let go of the past. If Nanami knew, she would definitely tell him sternly, 'Hinata-kun, you can't continue like this.']

【There is nothing wrong with it. 】

【……well?】

Kamuzuru Izuru stared calmly ahead, his voice as calm as ever, [It's just a definition, Hinata Hajime, can such a simple thing defeat you?]

[Ah, that's not the case, but it sounds so strange to me when you say this.]

【Boring.】

[Don't keep saying this, it's not boring at all.] Hinata Hajime leaned against the wall, feeling the morning sun shining on him, a faint warmth spreading through his body, [But, I'm very happy.]

Kamijou Izuru didn't say anything because Hinata Hajime was just an ordinary person and his thoughts were easy to guess and predict.

But Kamizuru wouldn't interrupt him, even though his words seemed so boring to him.

【I am glad that I have become someone you care about. 】

[Your mood is meaningless.] Kamukura Izuru said.

Hinata Hajime sighed helplessly, "So, don't always ruin the atmosphere at times like this. The atmosphere was so good just now that I forgot that you are the kind of guy who can ruin a normal conversation with just one sentence."

【But if you're happy, I don't mind. 】

【……】

Hinata Hajime coughed. He was a little at a loss and didn't know where to put his hands and feet.

[Is this also your talent? Kamizade! ]

[Don't let shame get you into a rage, Hinata Hajime. ]

This guy! He definitely did it on purpose!

Hinata Hajime clenched his fists, and at this moment, a familiar voice came from not far away.

"Hinata-kun!"

Hinata Hajime loosened his fists. At the end of the grove, Kunikida Doppo and Dazai Osamu walked in, pushing aside the branches. When they saw Hinata Hajime, they waved at him continuously. After seeing Hinata Hajime's response, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and ran over as fast as they could.

"Are you okay?" Kunikida Dopo patted Hinata Hajime's shoulder. "Are you feeling unwell? Do you have any thoughts of attacking anyone?"

Hinata Hajime quickly waved his hands, "I'm fine, really!"

"Are you sure?" Kunikida Doppo was worried. "Did you receive a call from Tanizaki? Are you really not sick?"

"He's fine." Dazai Osamu shook his head. "Kunikida-senpai, don't you take a closer look at your surroundings? For example, did you see Hinata-kun's eyes? His eyes are normal now, with both red and green, which means he is the Hinata-kun we know."

"Of course I know, I just want to make sure there won't be any accidents!"

Looking at the two people quarreling, Hinata Sou smiled and said, "Why are Mr. Kunikida and Mr. Dazai here?"

"I processed the message you left and found this address in it." Dazai Osamu said: "Also, Hinata-kun, you turned off your cell phone and threw it at the door of the Port Mafia."

"well?"

Hinata Hajime reached into his pocket, only to find nothing.

"Let's buy a new one." Kunikida Dopo made the final decision. "Okay, let's leave this to the military police. Hinata-kun, let's go back to the detective agency."

Hinata Hajime smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Taking a step forward into the morning sun, Hinata Sou turned around and stretched out his hand toward the shadow of the wall, as if inviting someone to step into the sunlight together.

Maybe Hinata Hajime and Kamijou Izuru always have problems as individuals, but once they are united, they are the most perfect individuals in the world.

…

The military police found Imai Ibuki dying in an abandoned hospital, but he died within three days of being found by the military police due to three months of being in a vegetative state without anyone to take care of him. Of course, the death of a killer was not what they should be concerned about. They were more concerned about the agreement found on Imai Ibuki.

The fact that the Port Mafia hired Imai Ibuki to assassinate high-ranking government officials was exposed, and the conclusive evidence made it impossible for the Port Mafia to deny it.

Of course, the Port Mafia will not collapse so easily, and it will only lose more profits in the constant trouble.

After seeing off a group of military and police officers who came to investigate, Nakahara Chuuya came to the top floor. Mori Ogai stood in front of a transparent glass wall. The shadow cast on him made him look particularly tall.

"Chief, the person has left." Nakahara Chuuya spoke.

"Thank you for your hard work, Chuuya-kun." Mori Ouwai did not turn his head, "I'm just afraid that these troublesome days will continue for a long time."

"yes."

Mori Ogai turned around and said, "This is what I was worried about at the beginning. The military and police may not know that we did it, but they just can't find any actual evidence. If we eliminate the source, then the military and police can only swallow this dumb loss. Unfortunately, I underestimated this time."

He did not anticipate the miraculous hopeless incident, nor did he anticipate Hinata Hajime who would come to deal with the hopeless incident.

"Chuye-kun, what do you think?"

"I don't have any idea." Nakahara Chuuya replied: "If I have to say, I think the current situation is actually much better than before."

Sen Ou was stunned for a moment, "Really?"

"The Information Department has returned to normal, and the subordinates are no longer worried about contracting some strange disease when answering the phone. Even if they interact with the military and police, their lives will not be in danger. Most people are satisfied." Nakahara Chuuya said: "Since most people are satisfied, it means that this is much better than before."

"So that's how it is." Mori Ogai smiled, "As expected of Chuuya-kun."

Nakahara Chuuya blinked. Did he say anything interesting?

"It's okay, Chuuya-kun, you can go down first."

"yes."

Watching Nakahara Chuuya leave, Mori Ogai smiled and sat down on the chair. The girl in the red dress was sitting on Mori Ogai's table, drawing with a sketchbook and crayons in her hands.

"Rintaro, are you ashamed?"

"Of course not!" Sen Ouwai retorted, "I am the leader of the port mafia, I cannot be ashamed."

"Hmph, you're lying!" Alice changed the color of her crayon. "You must have felt ashamed the moment Chung-ya finished speaking! It's no use refuting him."

"Because you created me, I know how you feel!"

Mori Ogai smiled, then lowered his head to watch Alice drawing, seemingly not ready to continue the topic.

After the incident was over, the military and police continued to put pressure on the Port Mafia for this matter, which resulted in the Port Mafia having many things unable to deal with, countless interests being suppressed, and development coming to a stagnant stage. He was worried and irritated about the future of the Port Mafia, but he never thought that the members of the Port Mafia organization liked their current life more than before.

No one joins the Mafia to die, more people join because they can't live.

Living is the most fundamental thing for them as a human being.

Mori Ou only considers the organization.

Only Nakahara Chuuya, a man who walked out of the Raibo Street, covered with labels but never gave up his kindness, would notice the increasingly relaxed atmosphere within the Port Mafia.
