On the national highway in the middle of the night, Rentaro, who was obediently waiting for the traffic light, looked around, but not a pedestrian, not even a car.

It didn't take long for him to see his own room, which was four square meters in size. There are no lights in the room. Of course, it is impossible for Yanzhu to not sleep so late, but Rentaro was originally a little expecting Yanzhu to wait for him, so he couldn't help but feel a touch of loneliness in his heart.

"You look tired, Satomi-san."

Rentaro reflexively pulled out his pistol and aimed it in the direction the sound came from.

Slowly turning to the rear, the tip of Rentaro's nose was also pressed against the pistol.

The prototype of this weapon was supposed to be a Beretta pistol, with a claw-like fireproof cap for indoor close-quarters combat with high-pressure gas guide holes mounted on it. Similarly, in order to suppress the rise of the muzzle, the large stabilized device was equipped with a retractable bayonet device. Underneath is an elongated multi-magazine magazine. On the left side of the slip is the line "Give the life withdignity" and on the right side is the line "Ohterwise, give the death asamartyr".

The grip is embedded with a metal emblem symbolizing the evil god Cthulhu. The rest of the gun has countless nails. As for the man with this gun-

"You love to be funny with this gun, Leech Shadow."

"Hee-hee, good night, Satomi-san."

The masked freak in the tuxedo simply lowered his gun. Surprisingly, he was also holding another modified Beretta in a different color.

"THIS BLACK AUTOMATIC PISTOL IS CALLED 'SPANKINGSODOMY' AND THIS SILVER ONE IS CALLED 'PSYCHEDELICGOSPEL'. It's all my favorite gun. ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Honestly, I have something I want to talk to you about. Can you put the gun down as well? ”

"I refuse."

"Oops, oops."

Leech Shadow Yin: "Smack!" "Flick your fingers.

"—little Binet, cut off the right hand that was in the way."

"Yes, Dad."

Rentaro jumped backwards reflexively, his astonishing slash slicing across where Rentaro had been standing with the sound of the wind breaking. Shadow Yin didn't know when there was a girl in a black one-piece dress. Little Binet showed an embarrassed expression that wanted to cry: "Now, don't move, you'll cut off your head." ”

A chill ran down his spine, and Rentaro couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Bad. I can't see her little knife at all. If there is one more trick -

Little Binet kicked up smoke and dust again, disappearing from Rentaro's vision. Rentaro stared intently, but couldn't keep up with her movements. At this moment, he could only close his eyes helplessly.

Ding—The two objects collide violently in the air, followed by a grinding sound, and both bounce off. They exclaimed at the same time.

"Didn't you kick it?"

"Huh, didn't you cut it?"

"Yanzhu!"

A red-eyed Yeon-joo appeared beside Rentaro.

"Rentaro! Who are they? ”

"Enemy."

As if guarding the shadow, Binet stepped forward with a knife in both hands. There was a 180-degree change from Fang Cai's timid appearance, and she stepped steadily, crossed the two black holmium knives, and put on a very unique posture.

"Dad, be careful. The guys over there are strong. Probably a kick-based starter. ”

"Oh, somebody can make little Binet say such things, it seems that you have a great starter."

Little Binet roared, "The dwarf winter melon over there." Get your name in! ”

Yanzhu was so angry that her face was flushed and she jumped to her feet: "You are a dwarf winter melon." Impudents. People call Yanzhu, Lanyuan Yanzhu. The starter of the rabbit type! ”

Little Binet lowered his head and chanted the words in an unpleasant manner: "Yanzhu, Yanzhu, Yanzhu - remember." I'm Little Binet, a praying mantis type leech. I am invincible in hand-to-hand combat. ”

Little Binet suddenly pulled the hem of the light child Shadow Yin's clothes with a sad expression: "Can you cut that rabbit?" Just cut off her head, is it okay? ”

"Stupid daughter, ask me to say it a few times. No. ”

"Woo, I hate Dad!"

Shadow Yin reluctantly adjusted her top hat and turned to Rentaro again.

"I always feel like it's going to be a stalemate. Do you really want to fight? ”

Rentaro, who didn't dare to be careless, looked at Kageyin while looking around. The neighborhood is all residential, and fighting here will lead to even greater damage.

Rentaro bit his lower lip hard, then lowered his pistol.

"Idiot. Say something quickly. I'm sleepy and have to prepare for next week's exams. ”

Shadow Yin smiled behind the mask and put the pistol into the holster, and spread his hands leisurely with the moon as the background, "I'll go straight to the point." Satomi-san. Do you want to be my companion? ”

"What, what did you say?"

"To be honest, the first time I saw you, I liked you for some reason. I can't bear to kill you. As long as you are willing to follow me, I will spare your life. ”

"No matter what, I'm a police officer."

"So what? I used to be a civilian police officer. Unfortunately, the Tokyo area will be ravaged by the mass extinction storm, and now I need strong backup. As long as you become my companion, women, power, whatever you want, you can get it. ”

"Satomi-san, don't you want to change this unreasonable world? There is a problem with the storage zài in the Tokyo area. Don't you ever think so? ”

Rentaro's mind recalls the figure of the unknown girl being shot at during the day. Her head tilted back in slow motion, blood spurting from her forehead. The blood slowly dripped down and was absorbed by the ground. The girl's eyes refused the situation in front of her, the police officer who raised the corners of his mouth with black pleasure, and the timid self who didn't dare to rush out for fear of being killed.

Thinking that Rentaro was still hesitating, Kageyin took out the white cloth from his pocket and spread it on the ground, counting to three—removing the white cloth. There was an extra briefcase on the floor.

"As far as I know, you're not very financially well-off."

Shadow kicks the briefcase over with her foot, and the briefcase stops in front of Rentaro and opens the lid. It was filled with stacks of bills.

"It's a little bit of my heart." Rentaro stared intently at the banknotes.

"You seem to have that Yanzhu pretend to be a human to go to school. Why? They are Homo sapiens beyond modern times, and they are the next generation of human beings—the only ones who will survive the mass extinction are our powerful race. Come with me, Satomi Rentaro. ”

Rentaro kicked the briefcase back with all his might, and fired three shots at the thing.

The briefcase was knocked off, and a whole stack of banknotes was opened, and several bills were fluttering in the wind.

Ying Yin looked at the broken briefcase: "You made a big mistake, Satomi-san." ”

"Wrong? If I'm wrong. That's why I didn't kill you when I first met you, Leech Shadowyin! ”

"Boring! Are you going to take their commissions anyway? No matter how much you serve them, they will continue to betray you. ”

Rentaro glared at Shadow Yin, and Shadow Yin also glared at Rentaro.

I don't know how long it took, but the police car that heard the gunshots sounded its sirens from afar.

"Hmph, let's stop here for now, Satomi-san. It's not to my liking, but you'll find out when you go to school tomorrow. It's almost time for you to come to terms with reality. ”

Shadow whispered to Rentaro and jumped backwards to melt into the darkness.

Rentaro stared at the direction of Shadow Yin's disappearance and asked Yeonjoo at the same time, "About the initiator just now." What do you think? ”

"It's strong, it's amazing."

"Do you win?"

"I don't know."

"Really?"

The words that Shadow Yin left before he left were like some kind of heavy, indelible remnant.

Early the next morning, the news of a gorgeous school suddenly appearing in the dilapidated gymnasium had spread throughout the Tokyo area.

What's even more amazing is to hear that this school is a place dedicated to the "cursed child" to study.

Rentaro, who usually doesn't pay much attention to the things around him, couldn't help but think when he heard the students around him talking about it during recess, "Do you want Yeonjoo to transfer to another school?" ”

But think about it, forget it. After all, Yanzhu is used to the current environment, and she has found friends in school, so there is no need to change schools. As long as her identity as a "cursed child" can continue to be hidden

Just then, his cell phone rang.

After connecting the phone, the message from inside made Rentaro hold his phone tightly and get up, and the classmates who were chatting looked at him in fright. Rentaro hurriedly lowered his voice:

"I—I'll go right over."

Rentaro closed his phone. Immediately rushed out of the school building and ran to Gota Elementary School, which was only two buildings apart.

He rudely changed into the slippers used by the guests at the staircase of the main entrance and went to the faculty office, just in time to meet the male tutor who was about to go to the classroom. The other party's face was pale and thin, and there were large black circles under his eyes. The male tutor is not as tall as Rentaro. And the weather is not too hot, I still hold my forehead with a handkerchief, and my big eyes that seem to be nervous protrude outward.

"Ahh You are the guardian."

"You say what's going on. Yanzhu is really—"

Rentaro approached angrily as if he was about to pick up the other party. Although he knew that it was unreasonable to vent his anger at Yeonzhu's mentor, Rentaro couldn't restrain his feelings.

The tutor peeked at Rentaro a few times and replied hesitantly, "Yes, the rumor that Lanyuan-san is a 'cursed child' has spread out of nowhere. When I ate a nutritious lunch at noon, I began to have the behavior similar to bullying to Lan Yuan's classmates. ”

"How could this kind of thing Yanzhu not deny it?"

The instructor lowered his head and continued to press the handkerchief against his forehead. The answer couldn't be clearer.

"Mr. Satomi, you have been hiding from us until now that Lanyuan-san is a 'cursed child' so that she can go to school. ”

"Even if you tell us in advance, you'll use other excuses to deny her admission, right?"

The teacher took his eyes off Rentaro and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief again: "Lanyuan-san seems to have been hit hard and left early." It stands to reason that the tutor is not qualified to say such a thing, but can Mr. Satomi go and accompany her? ”

Rentaro can't remember how he got home.

When he unlocked the door and entered his house out of breath, the cool cold air caressed his skin.

Yanzhu is not there. She was completely absent from the house.

A chill swept through Rentaro's body. He didn't even have time to take off his shoes, so he rushed straight into the bathroom and bathroom, and opened the cupboards, but he couldn't find them.

Rentaro couldn't help but blush at the thought that Yeonjoo hadn't come home, but when he opened her closet, he found traces of her once home.

Rentaro squatted on the ground, holding his head and thinking hard.

Every day, I went to the elementary school to pick up Yanzhu, and when I returned to the apartment, I listened to her arguing for dinner. Because she is very strict about each dish, Rentaro finds it challenging to cook.

Such a daily routine has been completely shattered.

Rentaro stood up and looked around the Shitsubo room, which had now become too wide.

What should I do after that?

Rentaro slapped his cheeks vigorously with both hands. He was determined to take action.

He took off his uniform, which he was permanently wearing, and went into the bathroom to shower. Grateful hot water laps over the body, loosening the muscles that were already tense. After the shower was over, Rentaro was one step closer to normal.

Rentaro put on his changed uniform and looked in the mirror, his cheeks a little sunken, but his eyes were still bright, and he was sure that his condition was still within his tolerance.

Confirming that there is still a close-up photo of Yeon-joo's face in his phone, Rentaro goes out with his wallet. He inadvertently opened his wallet to confirm how much money was still in it, and couldn't help but smile. You may have to walk on the way back, but you can't do that much.

Rentaro hurriedly boarded the train and got off at the terminal. Probably because of the holiday morning, the entrance and exit were deserted. Rentaro raised his umbrella and looked at the huge stone monument in the distance and advanced towards the outer area without hesitation.

This is Yanzhu's hometown, and he swears that even if he searches the entire outer area, he will also find Yanzhu back!

The school established by Yang Xi is not so much a school as a shelter for "cursed children", after all, the establishment of his school is not justified, and in particular, this school is facing one of the biggest problems - there are no teachers!

Now that the number of people is still small, Yang Xi and Muroto Sumire can barely teach them etiquette and common sense in life and how to use their innate natural abilities. But as time goes on, there will be "cursed children" who will continue to join in, and it will be a real headache at that time.

Matsuzaki, who had said that he was going to work as a janitor at the newly established school, was in charge of gathering the rest of the "cursed children" in the outer area.

Yang Xi made an appointment with him, and every afternoon in the future, he would ask Sumire Muroto to drive the school bus to take these children from the outer area to the school. After all the "cursed children" in the outer districts entered the school, Matsuzaki began to work as a janitor.

On this point, Matsuzaki readily agreed. And Yang Xi was rejected when he wanted to pay him, for him, being able to see this group of poor children find a home is the biggest reward.

In the past, because of his limited ability, he could only take care of more than 20 children, and he couldn't do anything more. But now it's different, with the support of Yang Xi and Muroto Sumire, as an old resident of the outer districts, he knows where most of the "cursed children" are hiding. If it weren't for the limited capacity of the school buses, he estimated that it would only take three days for all of these children to live happily ever after. (To be continued......)
