61. Hours before the war (4)

Oshino took a step out of the school gate, looked around, and first saw Li Nian and the two of them disappearing around the corner of the street in a taxi, and after paying a slight attention, he turned to look around, and saw the girl's figure, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

So he took out his worn-out flip phone and pressed a few digits to dial a number.

After connecting, there was a tired voice of a girl panting a little on the other end.

"Excuse me, who is it?"

It was Hanekawa's phone that was dialed.

"Yes, yes, it's Oshino bleating here."

It's different from the way to know Li Nian's number.,About that.,It's because Li Nian's entire set of identity information is made through the relationship of Oshino.,There are many ways to understand the SIM card registered with this identity information.,It's not difficult for Oshino.。

Knowing Hanekawa's number, it's because of this abnormal girl who was involved in the duel between Calendar and Abysot and was affected so much that she was seriously injured, and it attracted the attention of Oshino at that time, so she deliberately went to the address book of Araragiri's mobile phone and wrote down the number related to it, just thinking that there might be a time when you need to contact her.

Now I use it.

“…… Why does Mr. Oshino have my mobile number? ”

"I've seen it from Ara Ryogi-kun's mobile phone, don't worry, I won't harass you if I'm usually uncle."

"Mr. Oshino laughed......"

After a pause, Hanekawa, who heard the other end of the phone, took a deep breath and asked.

"Did Araragi-kun go back to Mr. Oshino?"

"Nope."

"That's ......"

"If you ask that, it means you haven't found him either, right?"

"Yes, does Mr. Oshino know where he might be running?"

"I don't know, but I think I'll probably go back to Heartunderblade eventually."

“…… Is that so? ”

"Because he has nowhere else to go except there, I just want to tell you this, so I said, thank you, Miss squad leader, let you run in vain, and in addition, the previous thing is also, let you suffer. Okay, now it's time to go home, get a good night's sleep in the big soft bed, and go back to rest. ”

"I refuse, because tonight is the last."

“……”

I originally wanted to reveal it lightly, but if it was Miss Squad Leader, it was impossible not to realize it.

It's hard to be smart.

Oshino sighed imperceptibly and continued.

"yes, but it has nothing to do with you, and it is impossible for you to get involved in this."

"I can't rest assured that Ara Liangmu-kun."

Hanekawa said bluntly.

There is no other reason.

"I think too, oops, what kind of super expansion is it so far, it's messed up, it's really annoying. However, because of this situation, it has become safer for Arayogi's younger brother...... If he chooses to leave from Heartunderblade, that Li Nian won't embarrass him, can you see this? ”

The other end of the phone was silent for a while before he said seriously.

"I understand, Mr. Li is a good person."

I have only met Li Nian twice so far, and I can come to this conclusion because the cold-eyed man gives people such an atmosphere, and his principles are reflected in his words and deeds, highlighting his personal character.

Of course, Hanekawa could see that unlike the three people led by the blonde hedgehog-headed priest, Li Nian did not regard Araragi as a monster as an enemy, but tried to pull this young man back on the right track in life as much as possible, how could a person who would do such a thing be a bad person.

Then she said calmly.

"At the end of the day, it's going to be like this. Perhaps, as Mr. Debt Collector said, it is Mr. Oshino, your responsibility. ”

“……”

As a result, after Li Nian, I have to be lectured by Miss Squad Leader?

"For Mr. Oshino, it's hoping to get the help of Arayogi-san, who has become a vampire dependent, right? In order to take back the hands and feet from those people. The person who hid these important matters from Arara-sangi-san for this reason is Mr. Oshino, aren't you? ”

The things that were accused by Li Nian had to be held accountable again here, and Oshino could only sigh.

"Pick the right time and tell him sooner or later - you won't accept that, will you?"

"Words have power, I know that. If you explain the situation by Mr. Oshino, the result will not be the same as that pointed out by Mr. Lee, right? As long as you put some thought into the choice of words and sentences in some places, the stupid Araragi-kun will come to a completely different conclusion, right? ”

It's really too much, and the little brother of Ara Liangmu seems to be a fool...... Well, that's right.

"Oh, okay, okay, I'm guilty, I admit my mistakes, I won't shirk the responsibility in this regard. It's just.,Miss squad leader.,Even the situation with Heartunderblade is taken into account here.,Leaving Heartunderblade with broken hands and feet alone.,It's definitely going to be killed neatly over there.,In this case, Arara Liangmu-kun's help is indispensable.。 ”

"So it's okay for Arara-san-san to fight that kind of dangerous person? With all due respect, if the opponent was those four people, Arara-sangi-sans would have died. ”

If it is Li Nian, it is true that he can kill Ara Liangmujun in one round, but it is different for Heartunderblade, even if it is a vampire who has lost his heart, for Li Nian in his current state, he probably has no time to be distracted.

Balance can be achieved.

-- But it doesn't really matter.

"Mr. Oshino, haven't you been pushing Araryogi-san to do those dangerous things, and as a result, it was you who single-handedly made it possible to put him in danger."

The words over there have been mixed with **naked doubts, so I can say this kind of thing in such a calm voice.

Oshino scratched his hair and laughed, this reaction was just trying to get by, thinking about something else.

Right.

Balance and things like that, it's not really important.

What is the balance between humans and non-humans, the point is not this.

What kind of neutral position is really pure neutrality, and Li Nianlai will not be asked to retreat from Heartunderblade.

It was his original idea to retreat from Heartunderblade.

It's just that what he hopes is to complete the form of retreat, but unlike Li Nian, he wants to retreat Heartunderblade in the form of a seal.

Balance is only a means, and what he pursues, in essence, should be coexistence.

Oshino didn't correctly estimate the strength of the martial god at the beginning, thinking that when the main means were restricted, Li Nian's strength must have been seriously suppressed.

So, I didn't think I could kill the immortal Heartunderblade - I wouldn't want to, kill her.

Can only be sealed.

And, the seal is enough.

Oshino thinks so-

Quillo Kinkada, Abisot, Dramanz Luki, and Li Nian are the strongest species of vampires if these four people work together.

Then on their own, they will look for opportunities to complete this seal.

But what happened after that was beyond expectations.

People are not as good as heaven.

Planning is shit in the face of change.

Oshino held his phone and smiled wryly.

The mind was no longer listening to the microphone at all.

In fact, when Li Nian refused his request to stop acting and showed his resolute killing intent towards Heartunderblade, Oshino had already given up his plan to seal Heartunderblade.

Li Nian has the ability and obsession to kill Heartunderblade, so let him complete the retreat in the form of killing Heartunderblade. On top of this, if you want to stop it, it's not necessary, and the gains outweigh the losses.

At that time, Oshino was just a little sorry for the death of this precious species.

So, until then, the development of events was acceptable.

The important variable is that it was later involved in the Araragi calendar.

Although Heartunderblade escaped from Li Nian's hands, his hands and feet were cut off, and he couldn't regenerate without a heart, even the strongest vampire, after becoming in that state, should not have the ability to prey on passing humans.

It stands to reason that Heartunderblade should have been killed there by Dramanz Luki and Abisot who were chasing after him soon.

Not everyone would sacrifice themselves to save a vampire, or in other words, if they were willing to sacrifice themselves, almost no one would come to Heartunderblade's aid.

But she met Araragi.

I met such an abnormal teenager, an abnormal human.

People like this are undoubtedly very rare, but they are such an anomaly, and they happened to meet an existence like Heartunderblade at that time, in that place, and in that situation.

This is, undoubtedly, a minor coincidence.

Fantastic.

What's even more bizarre is that Heartunderblade didn't kill Araragi, she didn't choose to eat it whole to restore herself, but turned the boy into a dependent.

Obviously a vampire with no dependents.

It's a vampire who hasn't made a family member for 500 years and has been alone.

It was precisely because of such an incredible situation that Oshino at that time would immediately choose to help Heartunderblade.

Because of curiosity.

Very curious.

The information he received after that also made Oshino think that his actions were worth it.

He knew that Heartunderblade had come to Japan for a purpose.

This purpose has already been said to Li Nian.

- "I have come to find a place to die. ”

These are the exact words that came from my mouth.

This is a very common thing for long-lived vampires, because they live too long and don't want to live anymore, and those who choose to cut themselves off like this account for fifty percent of the vampire's death, and only the remaining fifty percent are retired.

Like Heartunderblade, a person who has lived for five hundred years is a very small number, and it is not surprising that he suddenly wants to find a place to commit suicide after living for such a long time.

This goal was found because of the existence of the Araragi calendar.

She found this final home because of her encounter with Araragiri, and this human being, who was probably the only one in the world who would sacrifice herself to save her at that time, in that place, and in that situation.

I want to die here.

I want to end here and end my life.

And then.

- "I, I will restore my dependents to human status, because that's what he wants." ”

Given, in line with this purpose, promised.

Li Nian couldn't tolerate Heartunderblade's survival.

Heartunderblade himself, too, couldn't stand the long years and wanted to die and become a suicide volunteer.

If the purposes of the two sides do not conflict, then the result will not be worse.

It's just that the latter wants to end his life in the way he wants.

Youkai, who have survived for 500 years, are selective about the form of self-destruction.

The former ignores these at all, Li Nian just wants to chop the Heartunderblade into minced meat as soon as possible, and draw an end to the work that has lasted so far as soon as possible, but this suspense in his heart can also sleep comfortably.

This is the only contradiction that exists.

However, it would be cruel for a person who is about to die, or a youkai, even if she is a youkai, to take away even this right.

Finally, it's not beautiful, but it's precious time.

In order to fight for these, he made things so troublesome, and even spent the favor that Li Nian owed.

It's all worth it, Oshino thinks.

Therefore, it was agreed that Heartunderblade would not eat people, and Oshino decided to help Heartunderblade achieve this goal.

These are things that Li Nian can't understand, or in other words, he can't accept them if he understands them......

"Mr. Oshino, are you listening......

"Huh? Ah, I'm listening. ”

"Does that mean you're not listening at all?"

"Ahaha, how can it be, even if it's me, I'm not uninterested enough to take Lady's words as wind in my ears, especially when the other party is a beauty like Miss Squad Leader."

"If Mr. Oshino still wants to continue to use Arara-sangi-san, I won't agree with it."

However, the other party didn't eat this Oshino set at all, ignored Oshino's compliment, and just continued to speak in a calm voice that contained subtle courage.

"When I saw the battle between Mr. Li and Aragagi-san, I understood that if I continued like this, Arara-sang-san would die. I know that person is a good person, so he will give warnings again and again, but this warning is sufficient enough, and it has reached the limit, and above that, probably it will not be tolerated anymore, right? If he continues like this, he will really dig out the heart of Araragi-san. ”

So how to get Araragi to avoid confrontation with Li Nian is a problem - specifically, to make Heartunderblade play a sufficient diversion role, and there are actually countless ways to solve this problem.

Oshino didn't explain, but just said, "Ahh ”

"No matter what you did before, Mr. Oshino, at least for now, please don't let Arara-san-san get involved."

“…… It's like Ara Ryoki's mother.,Miss class president.。 ”

"Unlike you, I'm worried about the safety of Arara-san's life."

"What are you talking about, I got Araragi-kun involved in this...... So what do you think the current Araragi-kun will choose? Do you think that the current little brother Ara Liangmu, who ran away from Li Nian's face, will continue to help Heartunderblade even if he knows that he is aiding and abusing? “

Speaking in a mocking tone, this is a rhetorical question, and Oshino seems to have decided that Araragi will give up Heartunderblade.

This statement is different from his conversation with Li Nian, and the conclusion is different.

The current Oshino is pretending, but in fact, in his heart, as he said to Li Nian, he feels that this is something that cannot be said.

Because it's that Araragi calendar, that abnormal human being, an abnormal male high school student.

But if you witnessed that scene, you will come to the general theory that of course you will think that Araragiri has lost his fighting spirit, but it is better to say that Oshino, who has expectations for such a young man, is abnormal.

I said this to the squad leader, so that she could derive this general theory by herself, believing that Li would not intervene in the future, and then honestly go home to wash and sleep.

“……”

It was as silent as expected.

Oshino shrugged.

"That's it, to be honest, I don't expect anything from Ara Ryogi-san."

This is a lie.

In fact, I am still looking forward to it, so little bit of anticipation.

Oshino continued.

"Li Nian didn't have the idea of killing him, and Araliangmu's junior brother was very safe. Miss squad leader, you can rest assured, after tonight, I can return you a white and chubby Ara Ryogi-san Oh, I mean, if Heartunderblade dies, his dependents may become humans, this is a precedent, in that case, all the problems that exist in your Ara Ryogi-san will dissipate completely, what you have to do is to take advantage of this spring break is not over, and play with him for a few days to make up for his psychological trauma during this period, Maybe you'll take it when you get it, right? ”

"I don't have that kind of thought."

"Yes, yes, all in all, Araragi-kun has no problem, there will be no problem, and he will not die, he is just a victim, he is a victim and a person who has been involved, I will try my best to let him get out of the way, and I hope that he will not be involved with this world in the future. You too, you know? That's all I'm going to say, and again, hurry home, wash up and sleep. Got it? ”

After Oshino finished speaking, when he was about to hang up the phone.

“…… If anything, it's not impossible. ”

“……”

Oshino stopped.

Increasing the decibels, the other side continued.

"I think that if it were, Araga-san, who was a good person, maybe he would put his own vacillation aside and continue to stand on the side of Heartunderblade."

“……”

"So, I'm still not at ease."

Oshino slapped his face.

Allow me to make a sad face.

Yes, all the previous efforts have been wasted, and I have to start over.

Why is it so difficult to deal with one or two of the characters I have met recently......

"Miss squad leader, you're wasting my time. Regardless of that unrealistic idea, to put it bluntly, you can't seem to do anything, right? ”

"At the very least, let me meet with Ara-Rachi-san!"

"And then? If Ara Liangmujun wants to continue to fight against Li Nian's side? ”

"I'll convince him."

Leave that aside, this is the possibility that Oshino wants.

"Don't make a fuss, assuming that's the case, Heartunderblade won't sit idly by, right? In front of Heartunderblade, persuade Araragi's little brother to give up on her? This is a face-to-face Ntr, you can expect how angry you will be, uncle, I am not strong enough to save your life under Heartunderblade. ”

"Heartunderblade killed me in front of Araragi-kun, and persuasion is half the battle."

“…… It's your brain that can say that...... Take 10,000 steps back and say, Araragi is really determined to help Heartunderblade, can you convince him? In the case of such an abusive good man who has regrouped his mentality and made a decision, do you want him to give up Heartunderblade? ”

"How do you know if you don't try, in short, I won't give up until I'm sure of Ara Ryoki-san's thoughts!"

“……”

Oshino understood that he couldn't convince Hanekawa.

So what to do, he thought to himself.

Maybe she can be left alone, although in the current situation, even if she can't get the information here, she will stubbornly look for it, and it is not a good thing to let female high school students wander the streets, but it seems to be better than taking unnecessary risks with their lives......

At this time, such a voice is heard.

"Please make sure I meet with Araryagi-san."

“……”

"Please."

“…… Alas. ”

Oshino conceded defeat with a sigh.

He's really girls.

I don't want her to get involved anymore, because what happens next is going to be dangerous.

Again, I don't think it can play a decisive role.

"You win, keep your phone on, and then I will contact you and take you to meet Araragi-kun."

After Oshino finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Then stop a taxi.

"Go to Hotel Okura."

====

Until this time, the two did not know.

Araragi, who was inexplicably looking forward to them, chose the answer that the general theory would derive in questioning himself.

He had, given up on Heartunderblade.

No, to be precise, there is a difference.

The correct way to put it is to give up on yourself before giving up on Heartunderblade.
