Chapter 16 This is how people steal people in my hometown (Yokohama)! (hearty laugh

——There is no one outside the door.

Shuji Tsushima stuck his head out, but found nothing.

He closed the door in silence, thought for a moment, and the next moment, he opened the door when the other party was not prepared!

In an instant, his expression turned ugly and pale, but after a moment, he became speechless again.

He saw a blue-haired boy standing in the shadow of a tree outside the door, leaning his head out and looking at him quietly.

The cold wind blew over the eaves, bringing with it a faint sharp whistle. The moonlight was bright, but the night was dark, and the young man was huddled in the shadow. For some reason, his presence carried an eerie aura, as if he were half man, half ghost, and floating in the air.

Tsushima Shuji suddenly remembered the words he said when he first talked to this person:

"How do you know if I'm dead or alive?"

How can a dead person move? Ha ha……

...No way?

As an adult, Dazai Osamu didn't care about ghosts or monsters at all. He had absolute self-confidence and arrogance, and was accustomed to any unreasonable things.

He had seen Edogawa Ranpo, and his own ability was an absolute anti-ability. Having seen so much, he no longer had any strong fear of magic. On the contrary, when he encountered such a situation, he would try to control it with great interest.

To him, the most terrifying thing is always human beings.

When Tsushima Shuji was a teenager, in addition to the necessary courses, he studied family literature, and in order to prevent him from coveting the family property, he learned a lot of gods, demons and other things. Intellectually, he scoffed at the so-called devil, but when he really saw a "ghost" suddenly, his mind went blank.

Then the next moment, he seemed to have suffered a major blow - he always thought that death was beautiful, colorful and full of emotion. But if a person dies, he will become an ugly ghost...

Don’t do this kind of thing! !

Then, he saw the blue shadow blink, the space seemed to boil for a moment, and the feeling of detachment suddenly disappeared. Then the young man laughed excitedly, turned slightly sideways and lowered his head to speak to someone.

"Look, it's very strange, isn't it?"

How could someone sneak into the Tsushima family in the middle of the night just to scare people? Are you sick? !

Tsushima Shuji's eyes were silently dead, his expression turned very ugly, and he obviously felt a little angry.

However, his impotent rage could not stop the situation from developing, and soon a boy younger than him walked out from behind the tree. The young boy had long, slightly curly white hair, and his eyes were of different colors, which looked indescribably strange. His red eye was as dark as a blood hole, while the golden one was bright and holy.

"Good evening. I'm sorry if you scared me."

Chigenmaku moved over and circled around the boy with short brown and black curly hair, but Tsushima Shuji just pursed his lips and looked sullen.

"Two intruders. I'm going to call for help."

"Oh, there's nothing I can do. I can only kidnap you."

Qian Jianmu's smile looked like a glutinous rice dumpling with white skin and black filling, and the kind with a hole in it. The feeling of being threatened made Tsushima Shuji very uncomfortable. He opened his mouth to shout, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a candy was stuffed into his mouth. The candy tasted sweet and greasy, and his whole face suddenly twisted.

"Don't you want to go out? It's very depressing here."

"This place is very small, and there's nowhere to go outside." Tsushima Shuji's expression looked a little better. Although the candy tasted bitter, he did not spit out the candy, but tried to swallow it with gritted teeth.

"Yeah, that's true. But I'm not from here, so I don't quite understand the situation here." Qian Jianmu nodded, agreeing with his complaint. "But it's not convenient to talk here, do you want to talk?"

There is a strict curfew at home, and you will be scolded if you don’t turn off the lights at the time. Tsushima Shuji looked back at the poor candle, his eyes turned, and he suddenly said:

“I want to eat crab.”

“It’s hard to buy at this time.”

"Well... I won't go then." The young boy tried to give people a difficult problem in a bad way.

The crabs from Hokkaido, Japan are very famous, especially the Sapporo king crabs, which can be sold at a high price. We don’t eat it often at home, but it’s not impossible. It’s just that the quantity is controlled and I can’t enjoy it to my heart’s content every time.

It would be better to say that the smart Tsushima Shuji has realized his value. The two people in front of him must have something to ask for, and not taking him away by force is also to avoid damaging the relationship.

Coincidentally, he was also very curious about the two people, so casually raising some small requests that were a bit troublesome but not difficult to do could only be his little revenge.

"Um... Zhou Zuo, can I buy it?" Qian Jianmu knew what he was thinking and turned to ask the blue-haired boy.

Endo Shusaku thought about it for a moment.

“Good quality ones are a little hard to come by, but you should be able to buy them.”

Then, as if he had succeeded, Tsushima Shuji laughed.

"I want a really big one! Bigger than my head."

He turned around and went back to the room, blew out the candle and closed the door. Leave a note at the door saying you are leaving and let the servants handle the rest. When everything was done, he walked back to the door.

"So, how do you steal me away?"

he asked with interest.

The Tsushima family has a doorman and a night housekeeper, and the walls are quite high. He also sneaked out at night, either through the dilapidated back door or through the dog hole next to the back door. Over time, he became quite familiar with the dogs going in and out of the dog hole.

However, after the dog became familiar with him, it began to wag its tail to please him. Tsushima Shuji could not stand the look of the animal, and when his father ordered the killing of stray dogs and saw the carcasses of the stray dogs, he began to hate dogs, which were horrible and disgusting animals.

As he thought about this, he thought that if he had to go through the dog hole, he would scream there. The back door is next to a small room where servants rest, so it will definitely be discovered soon.

But the next moment, his malicious smile could no longer come out.

The boy, who was shorter than him, picked him up like a sack.

ah?

He lay on the boy's narrow shoulders, and when he lowered his head he could see the ends of the boy's long snow-white hair. The young man carried him with great ease and standard movements, as if he was not a living person but a paper man.

His mind went blank as he watched the land rapidly switch to the edge of the wall. The young man paused, and as if by magic, he stepped on the tree trunk and then used the force to step on the wall. After going back and forth several times, he grabbed the corner of the wall with his free hand and jumped over it with a force.

The whole process took no more than ten seconds and the sound was incredibly quiet. Except for the pain in his ribs caused by the boy's thin shoulders, he successfully smuggled across the border almost unscathed.

Ah, are you Superman?

“You…you…!!!”

He jumped down, his face suddenly turned red, he was shocked and angry.

"I'm sorry, but people over there are stealing people like this."

"Where are you from, monster?!"

"…Yokohama."

“Tsk!”

As expected of you, Yokohama, a place with talented people.

Endo Shusaku's physical skills were not as good as Sengenmaku's, but he walked out of the gate with dignity. The blush on Tsushima Shuji's cheeks had just faded. He looked at Endo Shusaku strangely, turned around, and said with a broken jar:

"I've come out with you guys, where are you taking me? There are people from the Tsushima family everywhere in Aomori. If I get caught, I can only say that you tried to kidnap me."

"...Yeah, where are we going?"

Qian Jianmu pondered irresponsibly, as if he had not thought about this question at all. Tsushima Shuji, who followed him out, looked even uglier. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the young boy clapped his hands suddenly.

"This place is close to the Tsugaru Strait, right? Let's go to the beach. It's high tide now, so we can pick up some crabs in the morning when the tide goes out."

"...It's not that easy to find seafood at the beach."

Having said that, the three of them still went to a more remote beach. There don't seem to be many people here whether from a distance or close up, but in fact, people often drink and have sex here. After all, once it gets dark, no one can see who the other person is, so the bottom line is infinitely lowered. It’s just a little cold in spring, so no one comes here late at night.

The tide was going in and out, and because we couldn't see who the other person was, we started a fire, and our bodies, which had been chilled by the sea breeze, were warmed up. Although they were not very familiar with each other, none of the three were stupid. After spending some time together, Shuji Tsushima felt a sense of comfort that he could not experience at home.

"What kind of place is Yokohama?"

“Where the bad guys and the good guys come together.”

"There are bad people and good people everywhere, you are talking nonsense."

"There are more people like this over there. Bad people with special abilities and bad ordinary people, good people with special abilities and good ordinary people are all different."

Tsushima Shuji was silent for a moment.

"I've heard of people with special abilities, but there are no such people in Aomori."

He raised his eyes, his iris-colored pupils flickering in the firelight.

"…Am I a person with special abilities?"

Shuji Tsushima was never a fool.

He is so smart.

He knows everything about the family and has a close look at the relationships between everyone. The difficulties faced by others are simple problems that he can easily solve. He can easily give answers to other people's confusion, but those answers are often not to people's liking. So all they can do is watch others struggle in the sea of ​​suffering, drifting here and there, and then slowly disappearing like withering away.

He can understand everything except people.

Although he didn't realize it at first, Endo Shusaku had already entered the triple immersion state in front of him. When Endo Shusaku enters the state, the Thousand Maku is invisible and only he can see it. It's okay once or twice, but it would be strange if he still didn't realize the problem the third time.

Either there is something wrong with Endo Shusaku, or there is something wrong with him.

Now it seems that both of them have problems.

"Well, I think there is. But I don't know how to use it. Don't you know?"

"A little bit of speculation."

Tsushima Shuji stood up and touched Endo Shusaku with his hand.

Zhou Zuo paused, his eyes suddenly darkened, he looked at the young man steadily, his expression suddenly turned strange.

However, apart from his strange expression, objectively nothing happened.

Tsushima Shuji scratched his head, not looking disappointed, but grinning:

"Hey, nothing happened!"

only……

"etc……"

Endo Shusaku looked serious and whispered:

"Wait, touch me again."

Endo Shusaku's ability will bring him a gloomy underworld buff. When he is not using his ability, his middle state will continue to be tainted with a bit of death. It's like walking into a warm room from outside in winter. He doesn't feel cold anymore, but he still feels cold.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but at that moment, the deathly aura on his body was wiped away.

Just like an eraser, it erases everything cleanly.

He calmed down and entered the immersion mode. Qian Jianmu, the only one who witnessed the sudden transformation, had no reaction to his sudden disappearance. He observed the status of the two people with great interest, his expression so calm that it revealed a deep indifference.

I saw Tsushima Shuji reaching out his hand towards nothingness.

——In the blink of an eye, a strong wind blew up.
