PAGE.25 Ryoko Tamiya's Doubts (Subscription Requested!) )

There is no doubt that humans do not trust humans easily, so this feeling of distrust becomes even stronger when facing parasitic beasts.

Most of the so-called trust is based on giving and giving, and only by giving help to the other party, or giving the other party some protection, can the trust between each other be deepened.

This pattern is also often used in anime, but it is better to say that the male protagonist will generally protect the female protagonist inadvertently, from a stranger-like relationship to a friend, and finally develop into a partner who can entrust his back to each other.

Of course, in the real world here, there is no plot where you have experienced a big crisis and become friendly after sharing weal and woe, only guys who are constantly fighting for their own future, even unscrupulous means.

This is the gap between ideals and reality, and even trust between people is not so easy to establish, let alone non-human creatures such as parasites.

It's just that it's not human, but in fact, the original definition of 'human' was made by human beings without authorization, right? It's not a claim that other creatures recognize.

In the past, Hiiragi has also seen in some works that the monsters that intend to occupy the earth call themselves new humans, which is actually irrefutable.

If we look at the problem from the perspective of parasitic beasts, human beings are the pests of this world, enemies, and dangers, and must be eliminated.

Basically, as long as you change the angle of everything, you will find that the problem is simply different from the original.

All living beings have the desire to survive, and the victor is the real 'human' in this world.

All prosperity and prosperity are not exempt from killing. Only war is the starting point and the end point that determines everything.

Suppose that one day humanity develops an absolutely powerful weapon. Superficial wars are likely to disappear. It's going to be an underground war.

It means that at any time, the dispute between people cannot end, and at the moment when parasites invade the earth, such contradictions still exist.

Hiiragi also wants to help the current parasites, and Izumi Shinichi plans to defeat them, and it is clear that the two of them have become enemies.

Hiiragi also left the original surveillance location after reading the file, and he now knew that Izumi Shinichi didn't intend to let him get his wish.

Shinichi wants to kill Black. Hiiragi couldn't have let him do that.

It seems that no matter what time the war between the two sides is, it is caused by a third party.

Escaping from the roof where he was staying, Hiiragi asked the black cat above his head suspiciously

"We're not going to monitor the movements of the police at the National Police Agency? Or do you want to be lazy, the inferior nature of human beings? ”

"As long as you talk a lot, I'm not lazy, but I have already understood, it hasn't been long since the police action."

"Is that so? Forget it, I'm just acting with you anyway, even if it's to blame. The one who is punished is also you. So what to do now? Do you want to go to the bathhouse over there to take a bath? Human bathhouses are a little different from what they think, and most of them are not Japanese. ”

"You're really picky. Why do you need a Japanese style to take a bath? Don't cats hate bathing? ”

Hiiragi asked as she searched for her way back, and Black scratched Hiiragi's head with her claws.

"I've heard that it makes the body healthier, and I don't want this body to die too quickly."

It seems that Xiao Hei is beginning to cherish his cat body.

Thinking of this, Hiiragi also sped up and crossed the zebra crossing before the red light came on.

Since I came to this world, I haven't really taken a break, and when the next big war is over, things should be much easier after that, right?

When I looked up, I saw that the originally clear sky was beginning to darken, and the noon sun was also obscured by dark clouds.

Inky clouds squeezed the sky, obscuring the scarlet eyes just now, as if they were about to fall, so depressed that the whole world seemed to be silent.

The honking of car horns is drowned out by the thunder, and office workers hold briefcases as umbrellas and begin to dodge the growing raindrops.

Several students entered a manga café in droves, and many pedestrians quickened their pace, some planning to hide from the rain, others planning to take the subway and buses.

Looking around, Hiiragi also wondered if he was going to take a taxi back because he was still far away from the apartment.

When I looked up, the rain had become heavier, and the cold raindrops hit my face painfully, making people almost think that it was ice thorns.

Although there is still a certain distance from winter, the autumn rain is still impossible to ignore, and the drop in temperature makes passers-by frown.

The rain has already started to fall, and it will gradually get heavier, and eventually it will develop into a torrential rain.

A few naughty children pulled their hands out of the hands of adults and ran through the rain, as if they were happy that the rain was coming.

The children fell on the way, splashing the water that had just piled up, and the water splashed on the trouser leg of a man in a suit, and the adults with umbrellas rushed over to apologize.

Looking at this everyday environment, Hiiragi also found that his actions were too far from ordinary humans.

Always looking forward to returning to the original world, always wanting to be stronger, always wanting to complete the task, only to find that he is no longer himself.

Hawkers,Human beings will always change.,Hiiragi's purpose is to become strong and return to the original world.。

It's a simple idea, but the act of trying to make it a reality is not.

The little black above his head hated the rain and let out an impatient cat meow, obviously he had just said that he wanted to take a bath before, and now he hates water?

No, maybe Hei likes hot water instead of cold water, right?

"Rain can be said to be the metabolism of the earth, but it's very unstable, right?"

"I don't know this very well, the weather and the wind will determine whether it will rain or not, after all, it will rain if there are no dark clouds."

Occasionally, there are dark clouds that don't rain.

"This sky can also deceive."

Blackie said like a cliché.

Hiiragi didn't pay any attention to her either. Instead, he ran to the eaves to the left of the entrance to a bank to hide from the rain.

It seems that it is necessary to take a look at the weather forecast. Although the weather forecast itself is not very accurate. But at least it serves as a cautionary tale.

In addition, there is nothing wrong with bringing an umbrella when you go out.

When the sun is big, you can provide shade, and when it rains, you can shelter from the rain.

Thinking about inconsequential matters for a moment, Hiiragi exhaled and prepared to run to the waiting platform where he would take a taxi back.

But as soon as he took the first step, Xiao Hei changed to a serious tone.

"The same kind is closer...... This reaction is ......"

"Your kind...... What about the distance?? ”

"Twenty meters, no. Ten meters, one meter! ”

Hiiragi also searched around and found nothing suspicious.

But the taxi that had just stopped in front of him opened its door.

Inside was a woman in a long white dress, who came out with a black umbrella, and the raindrops fell on it with a ticking sound.

Only one meter......

The woman looked up, it was Ryoko Tamiya.

I wanted to escape, but I was stopped by her, and the words that came out of her mouth were

"Let's talk about it now, Nangong Hiiragi."

Her gaze fell on Hei Hei above Hiiragi's head, and Hei stepped back vigilantly. Almost slipped to the ground.

"You have a new identity...... But it's really embarrassing, thinking that you have been killed before. I didn't expect to live until now. ”

"My vitality is very tenacious."

"Whatever you want, since you have decided your goals by your own will, go for it."

Ryoko Tamiya didn't say much, it seems that she has lost interest in Hideo Shimada, or she has not been interested in it since the beginning.

What has been used is no longer needed, and through Hideo Shimada's previous chaotic actions, Ryoko Tamiya has confirmed that Izumi Shinichi is a 'new possibility'.

"Go this way, there's a place to talk."

Ryoko Tamiya, who was holding an umbrella, pointed to a fast food restaurant not far away, and there were not many people inside.

Hiiragi also thought about whether to listen to her, and Ryoko Tamiya turned around and asked Hiiragi

"You want to come in?"

"No, I still don't need to."

Ryoko Tamiya invited Hiiragi to come over and hold an umbrella together, but Hiiragi naturally chose to refuse.

Hiiragi also thought about it after refusing, if Ryoko Tamiya wants to be unfavorable to herself, she doesn't have to declare that she wants to go to a fast food restaurant, which means that the other party wants to really talk about it seriously.

After taking the first step and leaving the eaves, the heavy rain instantly soaked the clothes.

Xiao Hei, who doesn't like the rain very much, immediately ran into Hiiragi's arms and hid in his clothes.

That's the benefit of being a cat......

In Mr. Natsume Soseki's work "I Am a Cat", the cat is also quite intelligent, but it is a cat that is good at thinking, knowledgeable, full of sense of justice and has the temperament of a literati, but he has not learned to catch mice until he dies.

However, the cat in his arms is a cat that can catch mice and 'catch people'.

In order to minimize the time spent in the rain, Hiiragi also sped up and overtook Ryoko Tamiya to reach the fast food restaurant first.

Ryoko Tamiya put away her umbrella and placed it in the basket at the entrance, and then entered the store.

Finding a place near the window and sitting down, Ryoko Tamiya took out a tissue and handed it to Hiiragi.

"Wipe it."

"Oh, oh......"

In Hiiragi's opinion, Ryoko Tamiya is a different existence.

She said that Izumi Shinichi was a parasite and a human, but she might be too.

I learned to laugh, I learned about humanity, and finally made sacrifices to protect my children.

"I've heard from Hirokawa that it took a lot of effort to find you."

"How did you do it......?"

"Do you think mayors don't have the ability to spy on their cities?"

Indeed, Hiiragi also found himself asking a meaningless question.

"Judging by the reports over there, you seem to know exactly what's going to happen next, but no one can prove it, only yourself."

"That's the problem......

Ryoko Tamiya is a brain-like being of parasitic tissue, and of course she is skeptical of Hiiragi's series of actions.

Hiiragi is also a human being, and it is impossible for humans to help parasitic creatures unconditionally, unless it is a special person like Hirokawa.

"I can't prove that very well, but you know before, the journalist's family was killed."

"Yes, Guangchuan and they made a very stupid decision, I have already said that things must be done without trouble."

"It is this incident that will bring unintended consequences, humanity will learn the truth, and in order to change this situation, change the status quo, and take the action of force to destroy, that is, the human forces will combine and organize an attack."

"The human individual is a brain, and when humans are united, they will form a giant brain ......"

Ryoko Tamiya picked up the water glass and looked at the calm and unshaking water.

"There is no doubt that human beings will act, and now that their identities have been exposed, Guangchuan and they will encounter unprecedented problems."

"So, is my plan the best?"

Then he picked up the water cup and took a sip, and the cat hiding in his arms, that is, Xiao Hei, jumped out of it and shook the rain on his body.

In order to prevent it from being kicked out by the clerk, Hiiragi also asked him to stay in the seat next to him.

"Your plan is to distract humanity through attacks and terror in different locations, and then break them one by one to show the power of this side, right?"

"That's it."

"You know, our side is also lacking in combat power, what if this guy of yours is deceiving us? The purpose is not to distract the enemy's combat power, but to combat it on our side. ”

The united humans are much more powerful than the united parasitic beasts, and there is no doubt about this location......

"Don't bully us too much, human, whether your words are lies or true, there is no reason for us to believe them."

"How do you prove it to make you believe it?"

"Doesn't that happen...... If you have to say, why are you trying to help us? ”

"Because such a society is wrong."

It doesn't matter if it's a lie or it's true, as long as you can get through it.

"Wrong ......"

Ryoko Tamiya repeated.

"You know what? I can't understand that human beings are sometimes more human than their own lives, and you are doing this to save those stupid guys, who are not human beings in your eyes, are they? ”

Without stopping, Ryoko Tamiya continued

"You must have a reason to do this, I can't be mistaken, it's just that you lack a little bit of what is necessary for humanity compared to the average person."

"That's, what ......"

"Only you know."

Standing up from her position, Ryoko Tamiya looked ready to leave.

"I won't approve of your plan, it's strange that you're following that guy from Hirokawa."

Is that in terms of being human?

Hiiragi tilted his head, expressing his incomprehension and displeasure at the same time.

"Failed."

However, Hiiragi will not simply admit to defeat so easily. (To be continued......)
