I, Zhongli, Wander the World

After the two magicians were taken away by Yeko Okura, no one from the magic world came to Yokohama for a long time.

Relying on the evidence brought back by Yezi Okura, Blessed Ying Chi hit them **** the grounds that "the high-level guards of the world of magic arts are guarding themselves and stealing from themselves", and initially made their own secret stakes in the world of magic arts, which is like an independent small society. . The high-level people lost the initiative and could only swallow down the account, in exchange for "ineffective high-level supervision".

In this case, some high-level contacts with the port mafia were naturally unilaterally suspended.

The leader of Hong Kong and Black became very angry after learning about this, but the little bit of sanity that remained was finally holding him back. In addition, Mori Owai, a personal doctor who had initially gained the leader's trust, was very winking. To persuade him, in the end, he did not do anything stupid that would tear his face with the transcendence on the bright side.

It just got worse.

Mori Ogai took advantage of the opportunity of the leader's recuperation to advance his plan a lot, and abide by the agreement with Zhongli, and cooperated with Ozaki Momiji to use various small means to control the friction between the Mafia away from the school. Zhongyuan Zhong was also able to spend his first year of campus life safely at the school.

"Come on, Mr. Orange, close your eyes and make a wish!"

In the room with the lights off, only a few candles stuck on the cake illuminated a small area. Following Edogawa Ranpo's words, everyone looked at the protagonist of this birthday party, and their eyes gleamed with candles sparkling with anticipation.

Zhongyuan Zhong also closed his eyes obediently.

I hope all those who love me and those I love can be happy, and I hope to be with Mr. and all of you forever.

The young man chanted pure and beautiful wishes in his heart, then opened his eyes and blew out the candle.

light is on.

This birthday is more inclined to family gatherings, and the number of participants is small. Apart from the family members, I only invited Mr. He Yao, Oda Sakunosuke, as well as the Akutagawa brothers and sisters who have an excellent relationship with Central Plains because of their inexplicable cooking power. .

Everyone sent gifts to Zhongyuan Zhongyao. Edogawa Ranpo sent his favorite books, Mr. He sent a small sachet made by himself, Oda Sakunosuke sent a very personal stationery set, and the Akutagawa brothers and sisters sent a small cake baked together by the two of them.

Even Osamu Dazai, who has always liked to tease him, sent a rare set of accessories that he truly chose.

Finally, Zhongli.

The small red cloth bag was handed over to Zhongyuan Zhongyao, Zhong Li had a gentle smile on his brows and eyes, "Open it and take a look."

Bright yellow straps fastened with snaps that can be easily opened. Inside the red velvet bag, a delicate bracelet lay quietly there.

"This is……"

Zhongyuan Zhong also poured the bracelet on his hand. It looked like a bracelet made of metal, but it felt comfortable and warm to the touch. The shape of the ring was carefully carved into the shape of a small dragon coiled up, and the eyes were inlaid with A rice-grain-sized peony.

"I also seemed to be interested in rock creations that day, so I gave a dragon-shaped bracelet on this birthday. I wish you peace and happiness, and everything goes well."

Zhongli stroked the child's hair as he did when he was a child. Zhongyuan Zhongya's cheeks were slightly red, but he did not avoid it. Instead, he honestly put the bracelet on his wrist and raised his head to reveal a happy smile from his heart.

"Thank you sir, I will cherish it!"

He Yao, who was completely unaware of the situation, was moved by this warm scene and asked, "What rock creation? What dragon?"

Dazai Osamu's expression didn't change, "It's a newly created landscape in the amusement park. It's a rock-carved dragon statue, and I like that very much."

"So that's the case." Mr. He suddenly realized that he didn't get to the bottom of why there is still an amusement park open in Yokohama.

The cakes with the candles drawn are cut into pieces suitable for the entrance, and the table is full of dishes waiting for people to take at will. Akutagawa Ryunosuke tasted a piece of spicy meat under Oda Sakinosuke's earnest Amway, and frantically poured down the cold pickled fresh soup with tears in his eyes, wiped his mouth at the end, and said in a hoarse voice: "No, it is indeed Zhongli. Sir, whether it is this prairie-like spiciness or this mellow deliciousness, it is the ultimate!"

Oda Sakunosuke blinked innocently, "Is it that spicy?"

Only Akutagawa Gin calmly served his brother another bowl of soup.

On the other side, I don't know who started it. Nakahara Nakaya and Dazai Osamu each took a piece of cake and tried their best to put the cream on each other's face. The kind-hearted Mr. He was about to step forward to persuade him, but was smeared by two lumps of cream at the same time.

In the chaos, Zhongli Bafeng sat in his seat without moving and eating. Edogawa hurriedly held his share of the cake, and rubbed his steps to sit next to Zhongli.

"Mr. Zhongli, do you want to go alone?" The young man suddenly said without end.

Zhong Li answered naturally: "You and Zhi need to go to work, and middle school also has to go to school."

"...You don't even perfunctory well at all!" Edogawa frowned and forked a piece of cake fiercely, "Even if we participate, it doesn't matter, anyway, there will be no accident, you are not Are you there?"

"Even if it's me, I can't protect you all the time." Zhong Li said, "Although this matter is small, it involves a lot, and the subsequent turmoil can't be stopped for a while. It's not a good idea for you to participate in it."

"You think we can't handle it well?"

"No, it's just out of concern, that's all."

Edogawa hurriedly lowered his head and did not speak.

A piece of cake roared and smashed on top of Edogawa Ranbu's head, followed by Osamu Dazai's loud laugh: "No, no, no, Chuya, your head is not good enough!"

"Dazai bastard! It's all your fault!"

The noisy voices of the two people kept coming, and the young detective was silent for a while, then picked up a piece of cake and joined the battle between the two.

This is what it means by default.

Zhong Li poured himself a bowl of carefully stewed pickled duxian.

It's not that simple.

He thought about the delicious bamboo shoots in his mouth.

It's just a small fight in Yokohama. After leaving Yokohama, being investigated as an accessory of the transcendence is completely different from being openly exposed to the eyes of the magic world and even the supernatural beings.

For these children who have not yet grown up, now is far from the time.

Birthday will be half a month later.

Zhong Li, who had changed into a normal shirt, dragged a small box that could not hold many things, and got on the flight to Okinawa.

The heavily worn memory has long since forgotten any plane travel. For Zhong Li, who is now more familiar with flying on his own, this uncontrolled weightlessness that he has not experienced for a long time is indeed a novel experience to some extent.

After breaking through the heavy clouds, the plane quickly arrived at Naha Airport in Okinawa.

The beach shown on the voucher was still some distance from the airport. Zhong Li dragged a small suitcase and walked a few steps towards the passenger terminal, then stopped helplessly.

"Since you've already sneaked here, don't pretend to do that sneaky thing."

A short man wearing a hat, sunglasses and a mask, covering his face, emerged from behind the load-bearing column.

He jumped three times and ran to Zhong Li's side, ripped off the disguise on his face, and raised his head happily and said, "There's nothing I can do if I'm recognized, as expected of Mr. Zhong Li."

"...Zhi." Zhong Li looked at the smug child, "It seems that you did it on purpose that day."

On the day of the birthday party, he deliberately led Nakahara Nakaya to throw the cake in the direction of Edogawa Ranbu, forcing the young detective to make a decision, but he sneaked over.

Today's Dazai Osamu has become less and less obedient in front of him. Instead, he often has a childish willfulness, which is more like a step-by-step temptation like a small animal than a real willfulness.

This time, he even dared to kill first and then followed him to Okinawa. If he hadn't figured out that he wouldn't rush people back to Yokohama at this time, maybe the child would not show up until the beach.

Facing Zhongli's inquiry, Osamu Dazai firmly denied Sanlian: "Where, no, it's not. It's obviously that Zhongya's head is too bad, it's none of my business."

Even though both parties knew it well, Osamu Dazai refused to verbally admit that it was his fault.

Zhongli sighed.

He leaned down slightly, making his vision level with Osamu Dazai, and asked solemnly, "Even if the road ahead is difficult, even if it's not your fault, do you still insist on following?"

Osamu Dazai staggered his gaze unaccustomedly, and quickly forced himself to move back, trying to calmly say in a nonchalant tone: "No matter how Mr. Zhongli avoids it, there must always be a more conspicuous target beside you. I don't know the world, and the middle is too sweet, so it's not impossible for me to make it difficult..."

The warm touch on the top of his head interrupted the boy's deliberate ramble.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Zhongli straightened up, dragged the box and walked forward again.

"Now that you have made up your mind, don't be left behind."

"..."

Quickly put on the disguise that had been removed again, Dazai Osamu silently trotted to keep up with the adult's pace, but he couldn't hide the red glow on his ears.

After taking the airport bus from the passenger station for a while, and then changing to a taxi for a while, the two finally arrived at the hotel booked at the target location.

Okinawa is worthy of being a famous tourist destination in Japan. With the strong support of the government, it has been thriving after getting rid of the shadow of war in recent years. Along the way, the rare architectural styles mixed in the Naduo area have opened the eyes of many first-time travelers, and the slender coastline that can occasionally be seen through the buildings is also unique.

When Zhongli started to check in at the front desk, Osamu Dazai was already eating ice cream in his left hand and red taro in his right, and there was a box of sea grapes in the backpack behind him.

While waiting for the receptionist to check in, a voice suddenly came from the door behind him.

"Really, Jin Er, can't you coax Xiaohui well?"

"I'm really coaxing, who knows that this kid will cry when he sees that artificial spider..."

"How can you use spiders to coax children, normally they would cry!"

Zhong Li turned around and looked at the family of three who were pushing the door in.

Among them, the tall, muscular man clearly had a sharper eye than ordinary people, and immediately followed Zhong Li's unobstructed line of sight. When he saw who was on the other side, his eyes widened immediately.

A woman with frizzy hair next to her holding the child followed her husband to watch.

"Oh, Mr. Zhongli." The woman greeted happily, apparently remembering her husband's reliable friend, "You are also visiting Okinawa."

"Mr. Chan Yuan, Mrs. Chan Yuan." Zhong Li calmly and politely nodded to the two of them, "Long time no see."
