The meeting place between the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia was finally decided on the bridge in the city center.
We have clear blue sky above our heads, turquoise lake water and big rivers under our feet. It seemed like the old world was new at this moment.
After a brief conversation and a hasty decision, the two organizations that have been in Yokohama for a long time finally reunited today.
The purpose is just to welcome one person, save a city, and leave a world.
This time Mafia was almost half empty, and naturally the main force included me.
But now I was standing behind Mori Ogai, turning my head to watch his mouth open and close, but not really listening to what he was saying.
It feels like the whole world is shrouded in a hood, and the reason is because of the familiar call from the distance.
I knew that I was destined to meet unusual people and things during this trip.
I will eventually regain my life after wandering between life and death.
In this case, then come on, I am never afraid of life and death.
…
After a brief conversation, we set off, aiming for Ehime Prefecture.
When we were still a few hundred meters away from our destination, we saw a sudden flash of light in front of us.
It was clearly daytime, but the light that kept flashing was more dazzling than the sun.
"It's two very powerful people dueling," Fuze made a quick decision, "Everyone, cover them from both sides and take a detour."
This was the last time I saw them on the eve of the war.
Mafia takes the shorter route.
As I got closer and closer, I soon felt an obvious wave of supernatural power. I turned back stiffly and found that Akutagawa and Mori Ogai had obviously noticed this.
But before we could explore further, as we got closer, we got a wider view and heard clearer sounds.
At this time, a familiar name broke into my ears.
It’s Zhongye, Zhongye is here.
I asked for the next order with my eyes, but Mori Ogai ignored me.
"Your past is worth exploring." I heard him sigh slightly.
Indeed, I nodded along.
The superpowers outside the grass are so familiar, almost like my mother body: they have the same origin as me, but they are obviously many times stronger than me.
"Well -" While we were hesitating, Tagore made a mistake and fell into a disadvantage.
Coincidentally, the military detective also arrived late, and the carrier pigeons were pressing closer.
Without any hesitation, they rushed into the battlefield first. I couldn't control myself anymore and jumped into the battlefield.
By then, Mafia Butei's united front will be formed.
As soon as I arrived, before I could clean up the trash, Dazai jumped up to me like a dance, winked at me, and then pushed my shoulder blade.
I stumbled and fell in front of a man with a mustache, Tagore, Chuuya and Fukuzawa who was preparing to fight.
"I'll do it." In order to save some lost face, I patted the corners of my clothes and said to Fuze.
Who would have thought that he actually nodded, turned and left.
Okay, I am a strong man in the new century.
Tagore picked up his crutches and stared at me faintly. I don't know if he still knows me after the world is turned upside down.
"Long time no see, kid," he nodded, "Are you still getting used to your new identity?"
I was stunned, then nodded.
"No wonder, it turns out that out of ten, nine out of ten are traitors." The man with a mustache said slowly, facing us.
"Haha, cough, cough," Tagore smiled and coughed up blood foam from the corner of his mouth, "Don't you think he is familiar?"
My attention was inexplicably diverted:?
The man with a mustache turned and rushed towards me, raised his eyebrows, picked up a cigarette and rushed towards me.
I was surprised and turned sideways to make a move. The moment I passed him, blue fireworks burst out.
The man turned his head and landed firmly back on the spot without making any unnecessary movements. It seemed like everything just now was just a temptation.
"This is the first time we meet, my name is Zhou Shuren," he exhaled a puff of white smoke, "Stealer, you finally dare to come to see me."
"Stealer? What do you mean?" When I said this sentence, I actually already had the answer.
Zhou Shuren lowered his eyes and sneered.
In the blink of an eye, he struck again.
This time I was prepared. The dagger was far faster than his and penetrated the flesh one step ahead of him.
In an instant, blood foam flew.
He flew away, holding a cigarette in his mouth. The smoke dispersed, wrapping around him and fading into blue light.
When the smoke dissipated again, his wounds were intact.
"Familiar?" he asked.
I froze in place, like a lightning strike.
"What's familiar can't be more familiar." I pretended to be calm.
"When a seed grows into a big tree, it will no longer resonate with the mother's body," Tagore frowned, "Don't try to cut it down, Zhou Shuren."
Zhou Shuren?
Zhou Shuren!
My knuckles trembled slightly with nervousness.
"You mean, let it grow and add branches and leaves?" Lu Xun continued, with no trace of joy or anger between his brows.
"You can't do anything about him." Tagore responded, white feathers sprouted from his crutches, and his momentum gradually grew.
"Then I'll give it a try," Zhou Shuren crossed Tagore and came straight to me. "After all, the seed will never know what his predecessor looked like."
I raised my arms and refused to step back.
A ball of faint blue flames flew away from Zhou Shuren's body, and then gathered around me.
I was hiding before, but in the end I had no other options. After seeing that there was no pain when they hit the body, he focused on the immediate battlefield.
It is worth noting that Tagore has been standing alone on the edge of the battlefield since my arrival.
Seeing Lan Huoqian, he frowned slightly.
I was confused, but the next second I realized that my movements were slowing down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Those blue lights gathered on me, like untouchable glue.
"You're too careless... Now I'll let you witness the true charm of time." Zhou Shuren took a long drag on his cigarette.
"Superpower - "Pick up flowers in the morning and at night". "
There was a tearing pain in my body, my eyes turned white, and before I could scream, my feet felt as if they were off the ground.
…
What greeted me was an all too familiar scene.
This is the forest where Tanizaki and I first met two years ago.
I stood on the ground holding my pocket watch and walked forward step by step.
The pain in my body has not dissipated, and my intuition tells me that the time I am in has changed.
And my powers are far from the level of Zhou Shuren, so naturally I can't escape from here.
I walked for a while and saw Tanizaki not far away facing dozens of mafiosi, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
"Superpower - "Snow"! "He shouted, but no heavy snow fell from the sky.
The next second, Tanizaki was hit by a gunshot, and there was a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground next to my left hand.
That was my birth into the world of Bunno.
I'm too lazy to look at myself, since I can't die anyway.
I turned around and headed towards Tanizaki to see if I could change the trajectory of the world.
But before I could take the first step, the pain hit me again.
I knelt on the ground in pain.
In my confusion, I saw another person passing by the area Tanizaki had just left.
That was Zhou Shuren, his face also full of confusion and panic.
