[Comprehensive] If you don't agree with one word, you will dry the boat

【Restart】

1.

Unknown port, humid air.

Probably because it was the rainy season, there were not many pedestrians and tourists on the tidal embankment.

The neatly laid bricks and stones on the ground had a warm luster due to the rain, reflecting the gray sky.

Holding a temporarily bought black umbrella, Zhou Jianwen walked along the tide-proof embankment in a foreign country alone.The sound of the sea water beating against the embankment, and the whistle of the cruise ship setting sail rang in the ear through the dense rain, which made Zhou Jianwen feel familiar and strange.

It is not the first time for Zhou Jianwen to come to this city. She remembers that she came to this city with her family when she was a child—before she came to another world or became a commander.

Just because I was young at that time, and it has been too long since now, the memory of coming to this city has long been blurred with the rainy season.

Now that she revisited her old place, Zhou Jianwen would not even be able to confirm where she was teleported to if it hadn't been for the fact that she had just passed through China Street to evoke her long-standing memories.

The dense drizzle slapped the umbrella surface and made an endless dull sound, and a small pond not far away reflected a corner of the sky above the city.

As if thinking of something, Zhou Jianwen stopped in her tracks and turned her head to look at the harbor on the right, but in the end all she saw was the hazy cruise ship in the rain, and the gloomy boat because of the loss of the sunny day. of the sea.

This is a completely different city from Fuyuki City, here is——

Yokohama.

2.

Although it is a revisit of his hometown, Zhou Jianwen will not naively think that this world is connected with his hometown.

It’s just that compared to Fuyuki City, which exists in an “overhead”, Funu Jianmin couldn’t be sure which work this Yokohama City, which actually existed in her original world, was related to for a while, until...

She saw a certain figure playing drifting games in the sea.

A long beige cape, light-colored trousers, messy black hair, and bandages wrapped around the wrists and neck.

In Zhou Jianwen's impression, there is only one person who fits this image:

A member of the supernatural group "Armed Detective Agency"——

Osamu Dazai.

interest, suicide.

Zhou Jianwen looked at the figure gradually going away along the ocean current, thought for a few seconds, and finally couldn't help but sighed, and then called out her familiar name:

"Counterattack."

Wearing a maid's outfit, a blond woman with a bald head, and golden and blue eyes, appeared beside Zhou Jianwen's call, and then she walked towards Zhou Jianwen like a real maid. Jianwen lifted the hem of her skirt, "Are you calling me, Commander?"

Zhou Jianwen smiled and nodded, then pointed at the figure who was about to be washed away by the tide with his chin, "Go and rescue that person, please."

The young maid saluted Zhou Jianwen again, and then jumped to the surface of the sea. She jumped lightly and nimbly on the surface of the sea, and then...

He grabbed the young man who was about to drown and carried him on his shoulders.

Zhou Jianwen only saw that the adult man who seemed to be about to drown just now was like a weak willow in the wind, hanging his limbs weakly and swaying with the wind as the counterattack returned——

Zhou Jianwen: ...

The picture was so beautiful that she dared not look at it.

3.

"Beautiful lady, are you willing to die in love with me?"

The man who was rescued subconsciously wanted to complain about Zhou Jianwen and fight back against the interference in his suicide, but when he saw Zhou Jianwen's appearance clearly, he immediately pulled Zhou Jianwen's attention away from him who was originally dead. Left hand, kneeling on one knee while...

Said the above words.

The corner of her mouth twitched in counterattack, she subconsciously wanted to say something, but in the end she chose to remain silent under Zhou Jianwen's gaze, and then took the rather heavy black umbrella from Zhou Jianwen's right hand .

Zhou Jianwen looked at the man kneeling in front of her on one knee. His messy hair was stuck to his cheek due to the sea water, and the clothes on his body became damp and heavy due to the absorption of water.

After staring at each other for a few seconds, Zhou Jianwen suddenly showed a smile, then imitated the domineering president in memory, and slightly raised the opponent's chin with his unfettered right hand:

"Death lovers, this is the first time I've seen it."

The other party's cheek was as wet as his right hand, but this did not prevent Zhou Jianwen from watching the emotion in his eyes, "Unfortunately, I still have a reason not to die for the time being."

Zhou Jianwen has always believed that sometimes just looking at each other can make people understand each other's thoughts.

The same is about the case now.

The man... or rather, Osamu Dazai, who was fished out of the water by the counterattack, finally let go of Zhou Jianmin's hand after staring at Zhou Jianmin for 1 minute, and then seemed quite disappointed sighed.

"That's right...it really doesn't work."

At the same time that the other party let go, Zhou Jianwen also withdrew her right hand. She glanced at the man's eyes, and then at the sea that seemed to be extraordinarily calm under the rain curtain, "It's not a pleasure to be submerged in sea water." way of death."

she says.

"If you want to choose an easy way to die, I suggest you try euthanasia."

Probably never heard such a reply before, Dazai Osamu also showed a hearty smile after being slightly stunned, "If I have this opportunity, I will definitely give it a try."

This is the first time Zhou Jianmin and Osamu Dazai meet.

4.

This is a world with supernatural beings and superhuman abilities.

Zhou Jianwen quickly confirmed this.

In the port city of Yokohama, in addition to the Ability Secret Service Division, there are two other well-known Ability Groups: "Armed Detective Agency" and "PortMafia".

If she wants to trigger missions in this world, the best way is to join one of them. Whether it is becoming a member of the Supernatural Secret Service or joining two other non-governmental organizations, she can quickly find out what she is doing in this world. world tasks.

But doing so would not make her Zhou Jianwen.

Although she didn't know where the man she was looking for was at the moment, Zhou Jianwen had her own means.

A means to force out the man who was hiding in the crowd.

5.

Repeat, this is a world with supernatural powers.

This also means that there is an industrial chain related to it in this world-to use a more popular term to describe it, it is a company related to the group of supernatural beings.

It took Zhou Jianwen less than half a year to get a license to open a business from the Special Ability Special Service Division. Obtaining this license means that this group of supernatural beings centered on her, and in fact she is the only human being. It has finally become legal in this country.

Zhou Jianwen sat in the empty office, rubbing the company name printed on the license with her fingertips, the gold-plated "Millefiore" words became blurred without her touch, and even became more and more shining under the light .

"If this doesn't blow you out..."

Zhou Jianwen spoke softly, as if she was having a conversation with her lover, or talking to herself.

"Then I really doubt whether you exist in this world."

her mortal enemy.

6.

Compared with the "Armed Detective Agency", which has business dealings with both the police|| and the military||, and "PortMafia", which has its own industrial chain and can be called the top dog in Yokohama, Zhou Jianmin's supernatural company It seemed a little small.

There are no sufficient connections, no elite members, and no large scale.

However, the popularity of the name "Masune Jianmin" and the company "Millefiore" in Yokohama is far higher than that of the former—among ordinary people.

And all of this took only two years for Zhou Jianwen.

Zhou Jianwen doesn't care about whether the "Armed Detective Agency" and "PortMafia" know of their existence or whether they know that they are supernatural beings.After all, in Zhou Jianwen's view, the fact that she didn't choose to join the two that day proved that they were not that important to her.

It's not that he doesn't want to be inferior to others and then be ordered by others.

Zhou Jianwen knew the real reason why she didn't choose to join these two organizations that day, it was simply...

I want to use my own strength to find the existence of that person.

No, it is to complete your own tasks.

7.

The re-encounter with Osamu Dazai was in another afternoon, but compared to the drizzle of the first meeting, this day had a sunny day.

The man was wearing almost the same clothes as when he first met, but compared to the embarrassment of that day, he was in high spirits at the moment, and he seemed extraordinarily energetic, even dancing and talking to the people around him.

Zhou Jianwen is not the type of person who would come forward to say hello to someone she doesn't know very well on the road. Facing Osamu Dazai who only met once, even though she learned about it through the special channel of the supernatural person in the past two years There are many rumors about the other party, but it does not mean that she will stop for the other party, or even pretend to be very familiar with the other party to greet him.

in case……

If she didn't see the white-haired man next to Osamu Dazai.

8.

The man who communicated with Osamu Dazai had the same white hair as Osamu Dazai, his fair skin and obvious westernized appearance, so he knew at a glance that he was definitely not Asian.

On this hot summer afternoon, the men wore simple black and white casual clothes. Compared with Osamu Dazai, who was wearing a long-sleeved windbreaker even on hot days, they were people who came out of two dimensions. .

Zhou Jianwen looked at the two men walking towards him, and was suddenly speechless.

9.

Osamu Dazai was the first to notice the strangeness when he was communicating with the people around him.

As if he noticed the probing eyes of others, Dazai Osamu immediately stopped his words and looked back along the line of sight.Probably because of having an excellent memory, or maybe because the communication when they first met was really impressive, Osamu Dazai recognized her origin the moment he saw Zhou Jianwen.

"We meet again," he greeted Zhou Jianwen, who had mixed feelings in his heart at the moment, "Interesting lady."

"Long time no see, Dazai-san who has a penchant for suicide."

She had already got the other person's name when they met for the first time, so now she can also call him Mr. Dazai logically.

Zhou Jianwen looked at Osamu Dazai, then at the white-haired man who stopped because of Dazai's stay, and didn't know what to say for a while.

is to go?or stay?

This is probably the first time in Zhou Jianwen's life that he has a headache for this problem.

She looked at Osamu Dazai who was not familiar with each other, and then at the man next to him who seemed to be unfamiliar to her, and finally made a choice.

"I still have some things to deal with, so I won't bother you two."

Slightly bowing to the two, Zhou Jianmin had already adjusted her expression before standing up straight again, and she showed a flawless smile at the two, covering up all her previous gaffes.

Then, turn around and leave.

10.

"Wait a minute."

A familiar voice sounded behind her, and successfully stopped Zhou Jianwen who straightened her back and left.It's just that Zhou Jianwen didn't turn around because of the other party's call, but just quietly waited for the other party's next words.

However, the man's voice did not sound again, replaced by rapid footsteps and breathing.

A few seconds later, Zhou Jianwen saw the man reappear in front of her, raised her familiar bright smile, and said to her in her familiar sweet voice:

"Beautiful lady, may I know your name?"

11.

"Zhou Jianwen, this is my name."

—External episode "Restart" End—

The author has something to say: A Ying's hand-picked extras on wild dogs originally wanted to write a story about Jian Min angering all kinds of demons and ghosts (not), but... it's just... um.

As for whether Zhou Jianwen here has anything to do with the main text, whether it is Zhou Jianwen in the world of the main text or a parallel world, and whether it is Zhou Jianwen who is traveling with Bailan or Zhou Jianwen after the decisive battle with Bailan Wen...it depends on everyone's understanding

After all, this is just a sideshow.
