the next day.
The sunlight poured through the windows onto the ground. The orphans huddled together and slept uneasily. Even in their dreams they kept shivering. Sato, who had suffered an outbreak of despair last night, was still sleeping soundly, which allowed the others to have a peaceful night.
Hinata Hajime sat up from the ground, looked around with some hesitation, and then walked into the sunlight.
The warm sunlight shining on him made him couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and his wrinkled brows slowly relaxed.
"Hinata-kun?"
"Yes!" Hinata Hajime was surprised. He turned around and immediately saw Dazai Osamu standing in the dark corner. In the slightly dark corner, Dazai Osamu's iris-colored eyes seemed to be glowing, and he looked at Hinata Hajime.
Hinata Hajime felt a little awkward with his gaze and had to adjust his collar.
"Mr. Dazai, what's up?"
"No." Dazai smiled, "Kunikida left an hour ago, saying he was going to check the surroundings, and asked me to wait here for you, Hinata-kun, to wake up."
Hinata nodded, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
"It doesn't matter. I didn't want to run around everywhere in the first place. After all, Hinata-kun has already been to all these places, right?" Dazai Osamu said this intentionally or unintentionally, his iris-colored eyes fixed on Hinata Hajime's eyes.
Hinata Sou couldn't help it anymore. He frowned and asked, "Mr. Dazai, what are you looking at?"
"Your eyes." Dazai Osamu said generously, "Hinata-kun, your left eye has become the same color as your right eye."
Hinata Hajime was stunned for a moment, then he stretched out his hand and tried to touch his left eye. When he was about to touch his left eye, he put his hand down as if he had reacted. He coughed and said, "Forget about that. Did Mr. Kunikida say when he would be back? I'm going to take you to see the source."
Dazai Osamu raised his eyebrows, "I'll probably be back in half an hour."
"That's good." Hinata Hajime walked out into the sunlight, "I'll go find something to eat."
Watching Hinata Hajime leave to get food, Dazai Osamu leaned against the wall, with a hint of interest in his iris-colored eyes.
What a surprise, that strange guy named Hinata Hajime no longer had heterochromatic eyes after waking up from sleep, but a pair of light green eyes. This color made his whole temperament a little softer, and he was completely different from the guy who was in complete control of the home court yesterday.
What is this? A double personality?
But if it is a dual personality, the memories should not be interconnected.
What an interesting person.
On the other side, Hinata Hajime was silently complaining in his heart while preparing the food.
[That man is really weird. Can I really have a good relationship with someone like him? ]
Kamiya Izuru is silent and his coldness perfectly fits his personality.
[Although I know that I should get along well with him in this situation, I have a bad relationship with strange guys, especially Komaeda... that guy.] Hinata Sou complained quietly, [How can I make Mr. Dazai have a better impression of me?]
This time Kamizuru spoke.
【Suicide in front of him, and succeed.】
Hinata Hajime: ...
What kind of revengeful social bonus is this?
Half an hour later, just as Dazai Osamu said, Kunikida came back. He told Hinata Hajime that he had reported the situation here to his superiors, but the feedback from above was that no one was allowed to go back until the problem here was resolved.
Although he was a little angry, Kunikida Doppo could understand it after thinking about it.
A contagious psychotic alien energy head, once infected, will go crazy, and if it goes to a place where people gather, it may cause some big trouble.
After distributing food to all the orphans, he asked Nakajima Atsushi to look after the children, and Hinata Hajime left with Kunikida Doppo and Dazai Osamu.
However, Dazai Osamu noticed that when Hinata Hajime asked Nakajima Atsushi for help, the white-haired boy's eyes flashed with entanglement and retreat, but after looking into Hinata Hajime's eyes, he nodded seriously, took the children from the orphanage and stayed, watching the three of them leave.
After leaving that place, Dazai Osamu asked, "Why didn't the boy named Nakajima Atsushi get infected with the despair disease?"
Hinata Hajime was stunned for a moment, "Dun?"
"He should be the most severely punished child in this orphanage, and he may have suffered from the cold violence of other children." Dazai Osamu said delicately, "Among the children in this environment, he should be the one who is most likely to be corroded by despair."
"The definition of despair is different for everyone. The fact that he hasn't developed despair disease only means that he hasn't been defeated by these things." Hinata Sou sighed, "Another reason is that he has supernatural powers."
"Superpower?" Kunikida Dopo was surprised.
"Well, I just can't control myself for the time being." Hinata Hajime smiled bitterly, with a hint of helplessness and sadness in his voice. "It seems that the out-of-control ability helped him bear the despair, which also caused him to be very afraid of his own ability. Although he has powerful strength, he often worries that he will hurt innocent people."
"It was this awareness that allowed him to resist the virus of despair."
It is a hope that is very worthy of admiration.
Whether it is Nakajima Atsushi's powerful supernatural powers or his firm self-belief, they are what the previous Hinata Hajime did not have. Looking at Nakajima Atsushi, Hinata Hajime sometimes feels that he is the person he once wanted to be.
Unfortunately, time cannot be reversed, and Hinata Hajime cannot choose again to become a talented person full of hope for life.
"We're here."
Hinata Sou stopped in his tracks and pointed ahead. It was a quiet little room with dim candlelight shining through the crack in the door. Dazai Osamu and Kunikida looked around. Next to the door was a tattered houseplate. They could barely make out that it said "Teacher's Room".
And below the house number is the teacher's name: Arikawa Ishiwa.
"A teacher?"
"Yes." Hinata Hajime squatted down, with a little confusion in his light blue eyes, "Next I will tell you what happened. Although it may sound magical, it is true."
Kunikida Doppo and Dazai Osamu looked at Hinata Hajime, and the two looked at each other and nodded, "You go ahead."
"The source of this matter is Mr. Arikawa."
Arikawa Ishiwa, a teacher at the orphanage, graduated from a good university. He was an excellent student in both knowledge and education. He was an ordinary person living a good life in Yokohama. Even his wife's death in childbirth did not affect his life too much, and the little daughter left by his wife was his lifeblood.
Unexpectedly, his little daughter suddenly suffered a heart attack. After being rushed to the hospital for treatment, she barely survived. The only way for his daughter to survive was to get a heart transplant.
But he had no heart energy so he couldn't have the surgery even if he wanted to.
Seeing his little daughter in great pain but still smiling at him and saying that she wanted to live, Arikawa Ishiwa finally had a bad idea. He had some medical knowledge, so he disguised himself and sneaked into some orphanages to become a doctor, trying to find an orphan who could match his daughter.
So far, Kawaishi has killed no less than five orphans, but all of them showed rejection reactions. Finally, when he finally found a heart that did not reject it, his daughter died of a heart attack one step ahead.
After the death of his daughter, Arikawa Ishiwa fell into a state of despair. The despair that broke through the dam resonated with the fragments of despair like black mud, giving rise to despair syndrome.
After replacing the despair fragment with the energy crystal, Hinata Hajime told Dazai Osamu and Kunikida Doppo everything in one go, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Killing that guy will solve the problem of despair, right?" Kunikida concluded.
"No, no!" Hinata Hajime stopped him immediately, "Simply killing him won't stop the spread of despair."
Dazai raised his eyebrows, "Then what should we do?"
"Make him no longer despair." Hinata Hajime seemed to think this was a difficult matter. "Only if he is no longer despairing and his heart is full of hope, the power fragment can transform the state of despair into a state of hope. The fragment of hope is the nemesis of despair, so he must not be killed."
"It's really troublesome." Kunikida Dopo frowned, "Is it possible to fill a person who is in despair with hope?"
This is also where Hinata Hajime is full of helplessness.
How can he lead a person who has fallen into absolute despair and even been fused by fragments of despair to hope again?
In the fratricide on Jabalwak Island, he did find a future with his remaining partners, but that was because they had been through everything together, and their bond had grown closer in times of crisis, so they were able to understand each other and influence each other to choose their future together.
He and Arikawa Ishiwa were not familiar with each other, and it would be even more annoying to think that a stranger was pointing fingers at him and asking him to walk into hope again.
Therefore, I might fall into deeper despair...
We can't ask Kamuzuru Izuru for help in this matter, because that guy doesn't care about feelings. He can calculate and analyze, but he can't understand why Arikawa Ishiwa collapsed. As long as he doesn't understand, all his methods are problematic, and he might go to another extreme.
Therefore, in this matter, all the initiative lies in Hinata Hajime's hands.
Kamukura Izuru never objected, and it was unclear whether he found this boring or just wanted to watch these things he didn't understand.
But there is nothing I can do.
Hinata Sou exhaled, and he stood up. "Do Dazai-san and Kunikida-san have any ideas about how to give Mr. Arikawa hope again?"
"Hmm..." Dazai Osamu stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.
Make a person full of hope?
Is this true or false?
He has never been a good person. He is a thorn growing in the quagmire. He has many ways to make a hopeful person fall into despair, but he can't help but make a despairing person standing in the darkness regain hope...
This matter should be left to Oda Saku.
The author has something to say:
Let's talk about Hinata's status.
Heterochromatic eyes are the future state, Hyuga consciousness, but because of their talents, they will be affected by the throne and will be slightly stronger than the original Hyuga.
The one with green eyes is Hinata Hajime, who has no talent, but has a stable personality and is friendly.
The one with red eyes is Kamizuru Izuru, who is omnipotent, very cold, rational, and feels bored with everything because of his analytical ability that transcends that of ordinary people.
ps: There are only two consciousnesses, Hinata and Kamiya, and the future state is also Hinata consciousness.
PS: The relationship between Kamijou Izuru and Hinata Hajime.
Hinata Hajime is an ordinary person without any talent. He admires Hope's Peak Academy and has talents. Hope's Peak Academy uses this admiration to participate in the "Kamizu Derushi" plan, which is a human experiment to make an ordinary person have all the talents. In the human experiment, Hinata was removed of all the things that hinder his talents, such as memory, emotions, and hobbies, and a new blank personality was born named Kamizuru Derushi. Kamizuru Derushi had all the talents when he was born, and therefore felt bored with the world. After the second generation game, the personality fusion was completed, that is, the state of heterochromatic pupils, Hinata consciousness is dominant, and has all the talents.
Therefore, Hinata Hajime and Kamijou Izuru are the controllers of the body in different periods. Whether they are the same person or not depends on personal understanding.
