I just want to be a regular writer

——So...

Can people change their appearance because of it?

A hotel in Sendai

"How do you think that I am here today?" Aoba Hitomi took off his glasses and looked up at Fernando on the sofa.

In fact, she can hardly see anything specific.

But the other person is Fernando-to her, Fernando's tired face is just a mass of meat, no matter how charming it is-don't let Fernando know her thoughts, otherwise. ...Was deducted.

"Huh? Ah..."

Fernando turned his head, glanced at Qingye Hitomi and shrugged.

Even if he knows that Hitomi Aoba is just more able to see the color blocks than the blind at this moment, but he still smiles very brightly: "Of course I miss Aoba~"

"...If there is nothing wrong." Aoba Hitomi sighed: "I would rather you go back to your hotel, leave silently and come back with a smile on your face. Is it because others are not funny enough ?"

"Huh? Aoba was angry that I left without a word? Um... Looking at it this way, Aoba really likes me, right?"

"Of course." Aoba Hitomi nodded frankly, with a sincere face: "After all, he is someone who can deposit money in my bank card regularly."

"Tsk!"

Fernando curled his lips, "Aoba should say a few good things occasionally to please the boss~"

"Talk about business." Aoba Hitomi emphasized again.

"Good, good~"

Fernando agreed with a smile, then leaned back on the sofa and said leisurely: "It's just a bit boring."

"Ok?"

"Look." Fernando turned his head, resting on the sofa cushion and said, "I don't know if Aoba noticed it."

"I recently looked through the list of missing persons in Sendai City in the last six months and sorted out some strange people who were missing. But take a closer look... these people seem to have done some incredible things. ~"

Aoba Hitomi sighed, "'Unbelievable thing'? Does it mean murder and arson?"

"Of course~"

Fernando snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Isn't it a good thing that their disappearance looks like this? Look, the people who made the blame disappeared, so the bad things stopped."

"what do you want to say?"

"Someone..." Fernando narrowed his eyes slightly. "Solved those people before the police."

"'Finish'?"

"No,'killing' doesn't bother to hide himself. He will arrogantly leave his mark, leave the scene of the crime, and arrogantly tell the world,'This is what I did'." Fernando said here, smiling and said: "So from a certain angle, leaving one's own footprint so arrogantly is really not afraid of death."

Aoba Hitomi shrugged: "Maybe I'm just sure I won't be caught."

"Probably so." Fernando didn't focus on "finishing", he continued with a smile: "But this person is different. Ah, I mean the one who quietly solved the trouble."

He looked down and thought for a while, then hesitated: "It should be a very low-key person, maybe someone we pass by on the street may also be."

"And it feels very strange to me. I have checked a lot of cases, but there are only 5 cases with traces of that person, maybe less. After all, there is no other direct evidence. If I rely on my subjective judgment...not credible of."

"That person is probably not keen on killing, and has amazing self-control, so he didn't commit any other crimes except to wipe out the existence of those people. By the way, maybe there is a cleanliness... or obsessive-compulsive disorder."

Fernando’s words are rare with hesitation and uncertainty: "I asked Ogirihara to find me a part of the file. The last place where those people appeared before they disappeared is very clean, like... people disappeared out of thin air. Like that."

"If it's'those special abilities'... it may not be impossible."

"This is even more amazing!"

Fernando got up and circled the hall twice, then raised his hand and said: "Imagine such a scene! "I have the ability to make people disappear silently, which means that if I am sufficiently secretive, I can make anyone I can't understand. Disappeared. It would be great if this ability can be used remotely!'"

"Ah, this'remote use' is a reasonable guess." Fernando added: "It was like that when the Sato's sister disappeared last summer. There was no one around, and she left the car and entered the alley by her own will. But! People! Gone~"

"So,'remote use' is probably true. It's just... I don't know what the rules are. Ah, let's get back to the topic."

Fernando continued: "'With such power, I will definitely feel the feeling of overlooking all beings and life in front of me as small as an ant. I should feel satisfied. And contentment will become numb sooner or later, and then...I will Need stimulation!'"

"So... why didn't I go further and follow my own will, but choose the right victim?"

"Maybe you didn't find it?" Aoba Hitomi picked up, wiped the lenses and brought the glasses back.

"No, I don't think that's the case." Fernando said seriously: "That man's approach... is more like being disturbed by those troublesome and dangerous people, and I feel so annoying that he started to'get away'. they."

"Is he still a peace advocate?" Aoba Hitomi felt that Fernando's words were somewhat contradictory.

"No, it's a potential murderer."

Fernando said in a calm tone, "He should believe that he is superior to those murderers with despicable tactics, and look down on them. The reason why he'takes away' them is by no means his trouble. On the contrary, those people have no vision, so he chose He sent himself to a dead end."

"Such a person is dangerous and may be evolving in the direction of a murderer. Looking back at the earliest cases I can find, this frequency is too low. So... he is probably also suppressing himself. Confidence. For example, why does he need to be suppressed? Probably..."

Fernando couldn't figure out this place, and he asked in a soft tone, "Is it because there is something around him that makes him have to stand by himself? Or... I think there is more important than the pleasure of killing, which makes him feel Comfortable thing? You say... Am I missing something else?"

"How do I know?" Aoba Hitomi rolled his eyes: "How did you go from'being friends with Shan Seung Hyun' to brain supplementing'this city may have a guardian-like murderer' state?"

Fernando was taken aback when he heard the words, and then sighed again: "Um...probably because Shan Chengxian looks stupid, but it's completely! Not at all! There is no relationship to believe my meaning~"

The world in the mirror

wait a minute...

Lilith had never heard such a strange request on April 1.

Kill her?

She looked down at Nana Kawakami, who was bloodless and at the mercy of others, and blinked.

Let's sort out the logic first-

The marionette is Nana Kawakami's stand-in Nana Kawakami and the marionette are the community of life Nana Kawakami is dead = the marionette will die Now the marionette asks Lilith to kill Nana Kawakami on April 1st...

and so.

Solution: Tired of marionettes?

——Of course not!

On April 1, Lilith frowned and looked at the marionette with alert.
