104. Chapter 104 About me and poor Dr. Mori...
"Manager Himeno, your behavior is... really unexpected."
The sharp surgical knife in his hand was about to come out the next moment, but the black curly hair The boy's movements were so swift that when Mori Ogai looked at Alice being pulled back from the opening of the machine's funnel by Shinji Himeno, he couldn't think of what to say for a moment.
What a... incomprehensible freak.
As a supernatural being, Alice was also obviously stunned. She had been set up in the personification mode by Ogai Mori, and even though she would fight with all her strength for her master, when the subject of the supernatural power had not yet been fatally threatened, her There is much less initiative.
After realizing that Shinji Himeno was so powerful that she could not resist now, Alice followed his master and wisely gave up struggling, secretly accumulating strength in an attempt to win with one blow.
Cautious, meticulous and adaptable.
These talents helped Mori Ogai become the leader of the immortal soldier plan, help him survive the meat grinder-like battlefield, help him become a black doctor, lurk around the leader of the port mafia, and wait for opportunities to seize power to complete his mission. ambition.
But these beautiful qualities are often only useful to those who have desires and normal logical thinking that Mori Ogai can figure out.
Seemingly unable to hear the caution and innuendo in Mori Ogai's tone, Himeno Shinji carefully placed Alice, who had just survived the shattering crisis, on the high platform next to the machine, and looked at the girl's eyes with her hair straight up. Full of pity:
"Did Dr. Sen mistakenly think that I would do something dangerous to little Alice? That would be an injustice to me. Although little Alice is a life form with supernatural powers, I am not a pervert. , how could you be so offensive to such a cute child?"
After saying that, he happened to pin Alice's sideburns, which had become raised due to the sudden shortening, behind the girl's fragile ears, and looked at Mori Ogai with a surprised and confused look. If those sad eyes turned into a movie and asked Mori Ogai to write a review, he would probably be able to write clearly "three parts fragile, three parts anxious, and four parts misunderstood loss and melancholy"
Mori Ogai: Just... still Quite shameless.
Whether it was the attack that lured Alice to appear, or the way he pressed little Alice against the machine like a thug, Himeno Shinji showed a coldness and toughness that was completely different from his soft and slightly curly black hair.
That murderous intention was real and strong.
Even now, the two of them seem to have restored peace, but Mori Ogai has no doubt that the madman will suddenly rise up in the next moment and throw poor little Alice-chan into the machine to decompose it. experiment.
Yes, through Shinji Himeno's description, Mori Ogai finally figured out the function of this huge machine with complex structure - to analyze the energy of supernatural powers.
Superpower energy seems to be nonsense like fantasy to many wild superpower users, but Mori Ogai, who has had military employment experience, knows that superpowers are not completely non-material energy that cannot be deconstructed. Over there, the continent defined as the birthplace of supernatural powers, the use of supernatural energy has reached a very mature level.
Thinking of the top-secret information he had been lucky enough to witness, Mori Ogai's eyes darkened, confirming the speculation that Himeno Shinji had inherited the research results that led to the Raibo Street bombing.
But this machine that was built in just three hours can analyze supernatural energy?
Mori Ogai both hoped it was true and hoped it was just a lie.
Mori Ogai has reservations about Shinji Himeno's words and this seemingly complex institution. But Alice, the most capable person in the body, has become the opponent's prisoner. Even if Mori Ogai wants to do something, it will be useless now.
"What a genius invention and rare talent that can produce such a precious and rare instrument. Even if it is placed in a secret government agency, it will still be treated like a VIP. Manager Himeno is actually willing to submit to a small family In the Cowherd's shop - this is really an indignity."
Taking the initiative to put down his useless weapons, Mori Ogai raised the corner of his mouth with a slight smile and quickly adjusted his attitude to show his goodwill.
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions. Just like Dr. Mori cares for his own supernatural being as his own daughter, I also have the same mentality towards everyone at Santukawa."
As if in response to Mori Ogai's kindness, he raised his hand with five fingers After using it as a tool to comb the blond girl's messy hair, he finally let go of his hand, turned to the operating table of the machine, and explained:
"After all, my goal is to run the 'Santukawa' into the best brand in Yokohama and even the world. The best service organization, everything else is just a means to serve this."
In order to run a service organization, he developed supernatural energy extraction technology?
Mori Ogai didn't believe it, and the next moment, the machine roared continuously, and colorful curves of red, green, or blue appeared on the screen, which began to fluctuate in a unique pattern, instantly diverting the attention of the two people.
No matter how much intrigue and mutual testing there is, it is no longer important in the face of the experimental results visible to the naked eye.
But the fluctuation could only last for a minute. As the energy condensed into Alice's hair was consumed, the machine suddenly stopped operating due to lack of raw materials.
Shinji Himeno cast his gaze at Ogai Mori, his eyes gentle, implying a hint of urging:
"Doctor Mori, don't worry, I will hide your special habit of treating supernatural beings as daughters from the leader."
Then, he Turning around and walking in front of Ogai Mori, he stretched out his hand to Alice, who rarely took the initiative to get close to her black-haired father. The tone was clearly an invitation, but the action was too strong to violate:
"I'll leave the rest to Dr. Mori."
Please, Dr. Mori.
When pretending to be a gentle and kind doctor, Mori Ogai Market can hear this kind of request.
Either she hopes that he will help her see a doctor, or she hopes to borrow some money from him, or even hopes to buy poison or information from him to murder others - in short, Mori Ogai, who has always watched everything happen with a cold eye, on this day, I finally realized the weight of these six words.
"...Sure enough, as the seniors (Orochimaru and Senju Tobirama) speculated, the energy that relies on the human body can recover quickly after being absorbed. Come on, Dr. Mori, the energy of a twenty centimeter-long hair is only If you can hold on for one minute, just use forty centimeters this time."
"Hey, can't you continue after only thirty times? It seems that Dr. Sen's physique needs to continue to improve. Such a weak body does not look like a A qualified mafia doctor."
"Come on, this is the fifty-fifth experiment. This time it is 60 centimeters. Three minutes is enough for me to record the wavelength. Please work hard for three minutes!"
" One hundred and fifty-five times, this time the success is very obvious. Keep at it, Dr. Mori, it’s just a little bit closer..."
From noon to evening, the young man’s clear and gentle voice continued in Mori Ogai’s ears. The sound of sex made the man who fell into emptiness and exhaustion due to the rapid loss of physical strength couldn't help but feel upset, but the persona he had maintained for a long time prevented him from revealing his true intentions.
So the man who looked like he had completed a 20,000-kilometer long run, and the sweat seemed to soak through his thick suit jacket, weakly raised his head, with a harmless and pale expression:
"Sorry, although I don't know that Manager Himeno is through How can I identify Alice's identity? But after all, I am just an ordinary doctor. Being able to use my superpower so many times is already my limit."
[? ? ! What kind of sickly beauty is this? ! Sen Chu was ecstatic, it was yes, screenshots! 】
[Hahahahaha, look at Alice’s expression of lovelessness in this life, when have we, Alice, ever been wronged like this? Dr. Mori, you have a day too (Dazai Cat Head Drinks Tea.jpg)]
[Sniffing - the exhausted Mori Ogai, so lustful, what should I do, although but... I took a small sip and was exhausted. Dr.
Mori
Have you been watching your hair cut all afternoon? (Dull) As expected, good-looking people are pleasing to the eye no matter what they do (Forcibly salvage respect) I announce that Shinji has officially entered my little wild dog's group of one hundred and eight wives! 】
【? Sister, you have many wives. Unlike me, I only have Shinji as my wife at this stage, and the others are all ex-husbands (eyes removed)]
[? ? In front of you, I just saw your ID in Dazai’s one-shot clip. It’s okay to lie to your sisters, but don’t lie to yourself! 】
The joyful discussion that suddenly became lively on the barrage passed in front of Himeno Shinji's eyes, forcing the young man to secretly take notes in his heart.
Well, as expected, a well-timed astringency can arouse readers' emotions, but non-combat nudity is strictly prohibited in the live broadcast room. Only this insight needs to be practiced after the trial is over and you return to your own world.
With a hint of regret about this, Shinji Himeno, who returned to being very involved in writing the script, raised his eyebrows slightly and asked repeatedly:
"The limit?"
In this long afternoon, he encouraged Ogai Mori to persevere, thus Extracting the superpowers he needs from this superhuman doctor is just an insignificant part of Shinji Himeno's complex work.
At this time, he had already achieved initial success by continuously intercepting Alice's hair, which was nearly a hundred meters long.
So after hearing Mori Ogai's excuse, he mixed the transparent substance extracted from the instrument into the chocolate brought to the laboratory in the morning. Himeno Shinji considerately gave Mori Ogai the help he needed urgently.
Relying on his absolute advantage in physical skills, the young man put on a researcher's dustproof white coat and walked quickly to the frail adult. At a speed that even Alice could not stop, he stuffed the chocolate in his hand into Mori Ogai's mouth.
Mori Ogai's eyes widened in confusion and fear, and he realized that Himeno Shinji had fed him something strange. He had no time to hide his strength, pushed away the young man who was pressing on him, bent down and clasped his throat with his fingers, trying to Use this straightforward and easy way to induce vomiting to spit out those damn sugar balls.
However, although they were obviously raw materials for chocolate, the sugar balls actually had the special effect of melting in your mouth. Mori Ogai held the ball for a long time, but apart from the saliva spitting out due to physiological reactions, there was no trace of chocolate on the ground.
"Rintaro——"
Poor Alice was already weak because too much supernatural energy had been drained, but when she saw what Himeno Shinji did to Mori Ogai, she still couldn't help but pounce on him.
As a result, he was caught by Himeno Shinji again. The young man held down Alice with a distressed expression and comforted him in a good voice:
"Alice-chan, don't worry, Dr. Mori is a senior I admire, how could I do this?" What about hurting Dr. Mori?"
Alice stopped struggling, not because of Himeno Shinji's words, but because Mori Ogai had calmed down.
No, it is not accurate to simply use words like "easing" or "recovering" to describe Mori Ogai's state at this time. If anyone saw Mori Ogai's current state, they would never think that he was the same person three minutes ago. He looked weak and powerless.
The burning heat from the inside out slowly arose as the chocolate ball rolled down the intestines, as if a flame ignited the blood. Two blushes instantly spread from the neck to the cheeks. Mori Ogai raised his head in embarrassment. Cover your nose with your hands to choke off the blood flowing out.
The feeling of rapid heartbeat, excitement, and inexplicable loss of supernatural energy also disappeared in an instant. To use one word to describe Mori Ogai's current state, that is, overcompensation.
"What... did you feed me?" The resentment of being teased and the excitement of discovering new things of interest coexisted in Mori Ogai's mind. His narrow eyes widened to their maximum size, and his tone was completely unable to hide it. expectations.
"That's -" the naughty drawl ended, the boy blinked, and leisurely told the answer Mori Ogai wanted to hear:
"It's the original solution of the vitality potion extracted from little Alice. Alice uses it for Dr. Mori, borrowing it and returning it. Dr. Mori, it will be easy for me to borrow it again."
The same excitement and joy as Mori Ogai appeared on Himeno Shinji's handsome face, and he urged briskly. Then the voice sounded:
"Tomorrow is the weekend. I have an important appointment on the weekend. Let's work hard and work overtime to complete tomorrow's things."
"Please - Dr. Mori~":,,.
105. Chapter 105 Cat’s hair can extract supernatural powers...
Friday night ended with Mori Ogai being exhausted.
The conditions for the generation of supernatural powers are not yet known. The only thing that can be determined is that the energy of the supernatural powers is closely related to the host's mental strength and physical fitness.
It's like a water bed that has been filled with a huge amount of water and then forcibly drained of the liquid in a very short period of time.
Although her appearance is intact, whether it is Alice who is barely able to maintain her body, or whether she is so weak under the white robe that she looks decent, or her vagina is so weak that she can hardly walk, it is clear that Mori Ogai has already Reached his limit.
Regrettably, he put the blond girl with dull eyes in his hand back into Mori Ogai's arms. Himeno Shinji turned around and put the extracted transparent semi-liquid substance that filled about one-third of the test tube into ultra-low temperature freezer. In the safe, he changed out of his experimental white robe, walked past the limp Mori Ogai, and said goodbye to him with a smile:
"Then I'll see you next Monday. If the leader has any instructions during this period, please ask Dr. Mori to help me deal with it. Just for a moment."
Leaning on the cold experimental table, Mori Ogai, who was already sweating profusely, glanced at him. Apart from fatigue, there was only cold scrutiny in his purple eyes. He pulled the corner of his mouth with difficulty, and he managed to remain calm. He breathed:
"This is not good, after all, it is the order of the leader."
"The secret of the safe in the cabinet is your birthday, Mr. Mori. You can take whatever you want and regard it as my reward." He has left. The curly-haired boy who arrived at the door waved without looking back. After saying something that made Mori Ogai's pupils shake, he swiped his card and opened the closed door.
"After all, that's the date I'm really looking forward to."
A sticky and pleasant voice came from outside the door. The young man's back had disappeared between the cracks of the closed door. Only the frivolous tail tone showed the young man's true feelings. mood.
Shinji Himeno did not deceive Mori Ogai. Although he was covetous of the huge resources controlled by the port mafia, the "Santo River" was his foundation. After appeasing the suspicious and irritable old leader, he naturally wanted to Focus more on the business of "San Tuchuan".
On this day of the weekend, Shinji Himeno's business talks lasted from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. After signing the long-term lease agreement on the suburban warehouse, Shinji Himeno saw Him when he came out of the building where the cooperative trading company was located. Edogawa Ranpo and Nakahara Chuuya were waiting on a street bench.
"It seems that you two get along well."
Walking forward, Himeno Shinji smiled and greeted the two of them. Although they could barely be considered Ranpo's peers, Himeno Shinji and Edogawa Ranpo were Human feelings are completely different.
The former is wearing a suitably cut formal suit. Although his eyebrows are soft, his expression is assertive and confident. His words give people a sense of maturity and reliability far beyond his years. Even the most seasoned veteran in the mall will not easily put him down. He thought he was a young master who was easy to fool.
The latter is filled with a natural and pure flavor, wearing a British detective-style uniform configured on his own request, squinting his eyes lazily, enjoying the afternoon sunshine in Yokohama and the candied haws he bought when passing by Yokohama Chinatown. It is the leisure and comfort that belongs to teenagers.
"Nakaya-kun is a very qualified assistant!"
Ah Wu bit into the amber sugar coating on the red hawthorn, and Edogawa Ranpo did not hesitate to praise the ocher-haired boy next to him.
It's a pity that Nakahara Chuuya didn't quite agree with this praise. The boy also held a candied haws in his hand, but his eating posture was much more subtle than Edogawa Ranpo. After hearing Ranpo's words, Nakahara Chuuya He raised his eyebrows and complained:
"It's because you can't remember the road Edogawa. Although you have a super talent for solving crimes, you are completely road crazy. If you don't have someone to accompany you, you can really find your way back to Sanchi River." Is there a way?"
Although the tone was complaining, as the younger one has already consciously shouldered the responsibility of taking care of the elder, the two people have a close relationship that can be seen to the naked eye.
Walking into the two of them and touching Nakahara Chuuya's furry hair, Himeno Shinji said with a smile: "Then let's go and meet Mr. 'Super Harmonious Good Man' that you mentioned."
Serving government agencies, assassination The super swordsman of some warring officials—Fukuzawa Yukichi.
At the same time, he is also what Edogawa Ranpo calls "Mr. Mr. Nice Guy who is super compatible". Himeno Shinji is the most important and most interesting person among the dozen or so dates he went on today.
The meeting place was set at an izakaya that specializes in grilled food and red bean confectionery. The silver-haired swordsman was sitting upright. He was the kind of person who could sense the cold smell of frost and autumn chrysanthemums from his body just by looking at him.
Maybe it's a style that goes well with Senju Tobirama.
Himeno Shinji made a preliminary judgment and temporarily ignored the rows of barrage messages such as "The president was so handsome when he was young, so handsome, so handsome!" and the special logo showing the golden eyes. He took it with him Ranpo and Chuuya walked up to Fukuzawa Yukichi and greeted him with a smile.
Fukuzawa Yukichi's eyes inevitably fell on Himeno Shinji.
He and Ranpo met again at an incident a week ago. The boy appeared next to the client as a "Santo River" SSR-level service member [detective]. With just one glance, he could see through that person. The client's husband attempted to unite with the mistress in a plot to kill the client, and clearly pointed out the preliminary preparations for the murder plan. With the help of Fukuzawa Yukichi, he obtained the stolen goods personally.
Then, at a jewelry auction, [Detective] arrived as a guest specially invited by the daughter of the largest sponsor. In the same blink of an eye, he found a person who was proficient in the art of disguise among more than thirty mercenary bodyguards. The thief, together with Fukuzawa Yukichi, who had cooperated twice, decisively intercepted the thief.
[Detective] Edogawa Ranpo, the latest SSR-level service provider launched by Santukawa Escort APP, a super detective with a genius mind - this is the information Fukuzawa Yukichi has learned. So far, he has been involved in a series of accidents. He has reached several cooperations with Edogawa Ranpo.
Fukuzawa Yukichi admired such a talented child and was glad that the child could find an institution where he could use all his talents. However, this joy stopped when he learned about the store "Santukawa" from an employer. the essence of.
——Cowherd’s shop.
Cowherd is a profession that seems to have appeared openly in the streets in modern times, but even an old-school and stubborn swordsman like Fukuzawa Yukichi has a bad reputation.
"...But after Manager Himeno took over, Santukawa's business has expanded a lot, such as the 'incident prevention' services provided by [Detective], but I still prefer the escort of Brother Haitang. It’s service, if nothing else, it’s so honorable to take it out.”
The opera director in rich and gorgeous clothes said, but Fukuzawa Yukichi couldn’t help but worry even more.
Only fourteen years old... already a Cowherd?
Thinking of the information that Edogawa Ranpo revealed in the murder case of the female president of S·K Trading Company: "Both parents are dead, he can't find a job, and he will soon be living on the streets without food," Yukichi Fukuzawa couldn't help but regret.
He should have stopped the burly man who called himself "Santuchuan Revue Performer" and the ocher-haired boy from offering to provide work suggestions for Ranpo.
At this point, it has become a foregone conclusion that Edogawa Ranpo will join the "Santo River". No matter how worried Fukuzawa Yukichi is about this child, all he can do is to tentatively propose a meeting with Edogawa Ranpo's current guardian. requirements.
Fortunately, the other party readily agreed to meet.
Fukuzawa Yukichi was impressed by Himeno Shinji's youth, and even more impressed by the vitality hidden under the opponent's thin penis - as a top swordsman, he could clearly sense that the opponent was not as weak as he seemed.
After that, there was a tacit conversation between the two, with polite tones covering up the sharp topics. One asked if there were any plans to sponsor Ranpo and Chuuya to continue their studies, and the other replied that there was a specially hired person within "Santukawa" personal teacher.
Regardless of why a Cowherd store has review criteria for final performance assessment in addition to performance assessment, Fukuzawa Yukichi looked directly into Himeno Shinji's sincere eyes, suppressed his doubts, and then asked:
"Then, is Manager Himeno? You know, what does running around with rare talents mean to Yokohama?"
What does an outstanding detective mean to a sinful city?
It means that the unsolved mysteries will be solved, and that the scumbag criminals will be brought to justice. If done correctly, the young man who can "see through the truth at a glance" can even become the Sword of Damocles suspended above the heads of all criminals...
"Meaning that Yokohama will have one more resident who loves it?" Himeno Shinji did not choose the above answer, put down the ceramic cup filled with slightly sweet rice wine in his hand, and explained with a smile:
"I think Mr. Fukuzawa may have misunderstood. What, we at Santuchuan are doing a serious business. The meat, body and erotic services provided by regular Cowherd shops are not among our service items. What we provide is a higher-level service."
"Higher-level services. Service?"
Fukuzawa Yukichi frowned. This action made him look even more cold and inhumane, and could definitely scare a child to tears. Unfortunately, Himeno Shinji was not within his range of intimidation. The curly-haired boy smiled brightly. Said:
"For example, we are trying to create a 'for the disadvantaged' employment team with reasonable fees and employees who have at least the physical fitness and fighting ability of active military personnel to help children, the elderly and women who are particularly vulnerable in the city of Yokohama. Provide safe surroundings. For example, we are about to launch personal medical beauty and health services, with special meal replacement agents as the core product. To meet the pursuit of a slim body shape by the majority of young people..." He
spoke at a leisurely pace and rattled off "three "Tukawa" has been or is about to perform service projects. Shinji Himeno looked at the man sitting across the table with piercing eyes. His eyes were obviously so kind that they were about to overflow from his emerald eyes, but inexplicably made Fukuzawa Yuji felt his heart tighten.
Just like the first time he fought alone against a hostile swordsman when he was young, and was killed by the swordsman sharply and locked in a tight lock, it made his hair stand on end inexplicably.
"...Of course we care very much about Ranpo's talents. The specially launched service level SSR system is out of consideration for giving full play to Ranpo's talents. Santukawa respects the expertise of every member, and even, In order to enable Ranpo's reasoning ability to be used without any burden, our next plan is to establish a legal group specifically to serve Ranpo's reasoning."
At the end of the discussion, Himeno Shinji's deep financial courage and super strong ability to act brought It gave this swordsman who carried the legacy of Taisho a small shock, and he couldn't even utter a single word from the draft he had made before coming.
How should I put it...education based on aptitude, understanding of special talents and providing them with a comprehensive stage to display their talents, and even -
Fukuzawa Yukichi's eyes crossed and whispered to Edogawa Ranpo not to eat too sweet fruits. Nakahara Chuuya couldn't help but reveal a small smile of relief on his lips.
The child even found a trustworthy friend in "Santuchuan".
Even he couldn't imagine an environment more suitable for Edogawa Ranpo's life.
"It seems that Ranpo can live a good life in your store, so I can leave with peace of mind." A kind smile filled his eyes, and Fukuzawa Yukichi said with relief.
However, Himeno Shinji and Edogawa Ranpo both stopped him.
"Hey, uncle, don't you want to go and see where I work? The interior of Santuchuan River is never open to outsiders. I begged the store manager Himeno for a long time before he agreed to let me take you in!" Holding the banana-flavored hot milk that Nakahara Chuuya stuffed into his hands, Edogawa squinted his eyes in dissatisfaction and raised objections.
"As far as I know, Mr. Fukuzawa doesn't have a fixed job right now. Should you consider Santukawa?"
Himeno Shinji will not let go of any gold-level talent, even if it's someone like Fukuzawa Yukichi. Even though he was a decent person who was almost rigid, he extended the invitation enthusiastically and confidently.
Collecting talents is like collecting pop-up scrolls of limited characters when playing a card game. The sense of accomplishment when you successfully collect them is simply amazing!
And as a protagonist, doesn’t it make sense to be surrounded by a variety of talents?
What? You said these wonderful golds have different ideas and beliefs?
It’s not a big problem. A qualified protagonist is to place high-quality subordinates in an appropriate environment. Differences in concepts and beliefs can be conflicts, but they are not the driving force for competition.
Shinji Himeno firmly believes that he can control everything, so he does not hesitate to invite any talent he values.
The boy's request was so sincere, like the sun at noon, magnanimous and hot. If possible, Fukuzawa Yukichi did not want to live up to such sincerity.
But he had already made an agreement with someone else beforehand, so he could only bow his head in shame and leave the izakaya.
"Alas, what a pity. Uncle Fukuzawa's swordsmanship is superb. Mr. Manager, you missed a talent." Edogawa Ranpo took the opportunity to put down the milk in his hand and licked the sweet milk above his lips with an expression. There was a bit of disappointment in the words:
"Uncle seems to have made an agreement with someone else. If I miss this opportunity, I will definitely not work for two people at once due to my personality."
"That kind of thing is not important." Ji Noshinji, however, had a completely different view on this. Shaking off the formal kimono with a green bamboo pattern that he had put on to meet the ancient swordsman, his eyes were fixed on the calico cat that looked like it was passing by the window sill.
Ah, the effects of super powers are really weird. There is even a person with super powers who can turn into a cat, and he is a golden talent.
Yokohama is like a cornucopia of golden talents. It’s such a great place.
I wonder if the hair on such a cute cat can also extract supernatural energy?
I really want to take her to the laboratory and try shaving her hair.
Reaching out and picking up the calico cat from the window sill while looking at it with hesitation, Shinji Himeno skillfully stroked its neck, forcing the calico cat to stretch out due to its natural instinct.
However, just when the calico cat reached its peak of contentment, the boy with the best cat petting skills slowly finished the second half of the sentence:
"Anyway, as long as Yokohama becomes ours, no matter who Mr. Fukuzawa works for, Isn’t it equivalent to working for us?”:,,.
106. Chapter 106 My colleague Dr. Sen is really...
are all young people today so scary?
Natsume Soseki, who was stretching his body, was so excited that his hair almost exploded.
Fortunately, as an experienced and mature person with special abilities, it restrained this impulse, raised its chin, and pursued the finger that made it feel more comfortable like a real cat.
Well, although he is a young man with extraordinary ideals, the way he combs his hair with his hands is really fascinating to the cat. Even if he combs it with his fingers, there is a bit too much floating hair?
It took a lot of strength to restrain the cat's instinct to behave more uncontrollably. Natsume Soseki's beautiful cat's eyes rolled around. While enjoying the cat-stroking services of the scary young man, he also relayed the conversation between him and the other two teenagers. All in your ears.
Young people are often the most energetic group in a country, and it is not an exaggeration to say anything from their mouths with unlimited possibilities, but the magnanimity and confidence of the black curly boy still gave Natsume Soseki a small shock.
It is indeed reasonable to establish a dedicated legal department in order to build the strongest service-oriented trading company, but is it necessary to establish different legal groups for different customer needs, business dealings, and commercial cooperation? Is your ultimate goal to promote the construction of the bill? !
Providing escort services for special events for vulnerable groups is indeed a commercial activity that benefits the people and self-interest, but it is expected to cooperate with all elementary, junior high schools, high schools and community agencies across the country, and even attempts to refine it into three shifts in the morning, afternoon and evening - you Are you sure the group you want to create is not [city police]?
The topic ended when Edogawa Ranpo picked up Natsume's cat's whiskers in confusion, and excitedly announced his discovery to Nakahara Chuuya:
"Hey - Nakahara-kun, look at this cat, its expression is so smart, like It's like he understands our conversation!"
"Huh? Is there such a thing? I have only met very smart dogs on Leibo Street that can help their owners grab food. I have never seen a smart dog. Cat..."
His cobalt blue eyes immediately came closer, carefully looking up, down, left, and right at the cat in Himeno Shinji's arms. The boy named Nakahara Chuuya stared at it for a long time before making his own judgment:
"It's a male calico cat, no wonder The store manager will hold it for so long, so let me touch it too."
"In order to repay the debt earlier? Nakahara-kun, please tell me earlier, if you agree to be my exclusive guard, I can help you repay the debt. ~"
Ranpo's attention was successfully diverted, but in the slits of his narrowed eyes, a dark green luster seemed to flash past, making Natsume Soseki secretly praise his keen observation, and at the same time he also realized that he We have to get out of here.
As if he had a tacit understanding, Himeno Shinji took the initiative to let go of the calico cat, and slowly pressed the cat's fur, which was almost half a fist in size, into a flat cake shape, and smiled to remind Nakahara Chuuya and Edogawa Ranpo. :
"It's getting late. I remember you have a weekly test tonight? Go back early."
Unfortunately, it's not the best opportunity to take this golden cat back to Santuchuan, but it's not a big problem. I'm curious. It’s an irresistible bait in this world, let alone a cat?
Weekly test?
Catching this new word with keen ears, Natsume the cat tilted its head and watched the three teenagers leave the izakaya before jumping over the flower bed and walking in another direction.
It was a remote and secluded dilapidated underground station. The silver-haired swordsman and the black-haired doctor had been waiting for a long time. But because of their strange personalities, there was an awkward silence between the two of them, waiting together for the elder who asked them to come here. .
Natsume Soseki, the island nation’s now-famous “most powerful person with supernatural powers,” is an educator who is quite well-connected in the government and military circles. His whereabouts are a mystery and his vision is outstanding. God knows that Mori Ogai and Fukuzawa Yukichi will receive this How he felt when he was invited to meet by the elders -
Fukuzawa Yukichi said goodbye to Himeno Shinji and others, and it was really for this meeting.
It was not until three minutes before the meeting time ended that Mori Ogai and Fukuzawa Yukichi, who had been waiting here early, saw Natsume-sensei wearing a dark brown plaid coat.
The "Three Moments Concept" that belongs to the original world line and creates Yokohama's unique phenomenon of coexistence of chaos and order begins with this.
Well, if nothing unexpected happens.
As the saying goes, a triangle is the most stable structure. Faced with a city like Yokohama that is quite unique in terms of politics, geographical location, economic status, and status in the world, Natsume Soseki, who wanted to create stable order in the chaotic Yokohama, also decided to do so. He spent a lot of time researching it, and the [Three Moments Concept] was the result of his in-depth research.
"...the Special Agents Division represents the 'day' part of the world order, and the 'mafia' culture with Yokohama characteristics must shoulder the burden of being the writer of the 'night' rules. However, absolute white and absolute black During the time, the gray part that balances the friction between black and white is also very important - this requires someone to establish a neutral institution that symbolizes 'twilight'."
To become a guardian of order, in addition to outstanding talents and strong beliefs, , but also requires a unique love for the city of Yokohama.
Mori Ogai and Fukuzawa Yukichi were the most suitable candidates selected by Natsume Soseki after using his contacts to collect information and transforming into a cat to carefully observe many candidates. Therefore, they did not mind explaining their opinions at the first meeting. Target.
Everything is worth it for Yokohama.
Mori Ogai and Fukuzawa Yukichi had the same belief. The collision of ideas produced sparks of inspiration. Under the guidance of the elder's wisdom, these sparks all turned into ideas and plans, becoming a part of Natsume Soseki's teaching.
However, when this "black and white" teaching came to an end, Mori Ogai and Fukuzawa Yukichi got stuck on the last step of "building an organization."
Seeing the two students looking heavy and serious, Natsume Soseki comforted him thoughtfully:
"This matter is not urgent. Is it easy to establish an organization? Let's take our time."
"No, I just thought of a ready-made It is suitable to be an organization represented by the 'gray' color. Although this organization is not well-known now, the talents it recruits are very outstanding."
Fukuzawa Yukichi recalled all the information he had learned about the "Santo River", and the more he thought about it, The more I feel that from a functional point of view, the "Santo River" is very consistent with Mr. Natsume's functional requirements for the "Twilight Organization".
Well, in the final analysis he is just a swordsman, and his major in running an organization is totally inappropriate for him.
"I have an idea - as a representative of the 'dark night' order, is there a more suitable place in Yokohama than the Port Mafia? Unfortunately, although I have gained the leader's trust as a doctor, under the leader's command, There is also a nutritionist who is more favored by the leader than me..."
"Oh?"
Natsume Soseki became interested. He had just gone to Tokyo to attend a meeting on how to resettle people with supernatural powers, and it had only been three days since he returned to Yokohama. I really haven’t heard of any third-party organizations that deserve special attention.
Seeing the teacher's interest, Fukuzawa Yukichi and Mori Ogai categorically said the same name;
"Santukawa, Himeno Shinji."
"Himeno Shinji, the store manager of 'Santukawa'."
Oops, Let him see, what is this interesting thing?
The middle-aged man wearing a British-style gentleman's formal suit blinked and suddenly said: "Ah, you are talking about that kid who is very ambitious."
=
A small Cowherd shop, well, with the young man's precise skills In the words of the vicious store manager Himeno - what is it about a promising all-around service organization that attracts the attention of Natsume Soseki and the Ginlang Swordsman?
Could it be that Shinji Himeno is hiding some special means that he doesn't know about?
On the third underground floor of the Port Mafia headquarters building, Mori Ogai, who resumed work on Monday, was acting as a supplier of supernatural energy materials while secretly looking at Shinji Himeno.
Thanks to Shinji Hino's policy of "taking it from Alice and using it for Mori Ogai", Mori Ogai enjoyed the benefits of the "vital vitality potion" liquid before the leader, but this not only made Mori Ogai more Apart from being exploited by Himeno Shinji to a large extent, it did not bring any additional benefits to Mori Ogai.
Rather, because of the "replenishment" and "extraction" of life energy in a short period of time, his already poor hairline was even more dangerous.
Continuously planning for the position of leader, Mori Ogai felt that he could no longer let Himeno Shinji take the initiative. He must step aside from his status as a "raw material supplier" and find another way to gain the leader's trust.
To this end, temporary cooperation with Shinji Himeno is necessary.
Mori Ogai, who had no baggage, was extremely flexible in his bottom line. On the day after making the decision, he seized the opportunity to proactively raise the topic.
"...After all, my Alice does not have combat-type powers after all. If I want to extract more energy liquid, Alice and I alone may not be enough."
"Not enough, of course not enough."
From the console Raising his head, the black-haired boy raised his lips with a smile. On his innocent and harmless face, there was no trace of the black-hearted capitalist who squeezed Mori Ogai to death. Instead, he tilted his head and asked in a friendly and friendly manner:
"So Dr. Mori?" Do you have any good suggestions?"
Himeno Shinji's straightforward attitude made Mori Ogai swallow all the words he tried to persuade the boy in the air, and thought about it:
"Maybe Himeno store manager knows that he just took office not long ago and is a member of the Port Mafia. Mr. Ozaki Momiji, who has the position of a cadre?"
Seeing Himeno Shinji's eyes looking thoughtful, Mori Ogai lowered his voice and sighed:
"Mr. Ozaki's golden Yasha is a top-notch assassination-type supernatural creature, compared to me Poor little Alice, Golden Yasha can extract much more supernatural energy."
The only price is to face the consequences of using one of the Port Mafia cadres as experimental material.
The half-concealed purple eyes were extremely deep. After leaving enough time for Himeno Shinji to think and weigh, Ogai Mori said all his plans at the right time:
"But if it is for the health of the leader, I believe that no matter what the five cadres do, They are all willing, but treating them as experimental subjects or something... I'm afraid it will attract hatred. If Mr. Himeno doesn't mind, I am willing to write my name on the application and share the risk with you. "
Throwing out appropriate bait, in exchange for the opportunity to cooperate with Himeno Shinji, and also brushing up another wave of loyalty points in front of the leader, it is not a loss after all.
"Dr. Mori, you are such a kind doctor."
After hearing Mori Ogai's advice, Shinji Himeno couldn't help but sigh:
"You have known about the existence of Golden Yasha for a long time, but you have persisted until your strength and I didn't say it until the experiment progressed - what a good guy."
Mori Ogai, who didn't expect to get the "good guy card":?
Although, I am not happy to receive such a perfunctory reply :)
Before Mori Ogai could continue to use his persuasive words, the boy took off the note paper and started writing a report to be submitted to the leader. As soon as he started writing, he seemed to have thought of something. What? He raised his head and smiled shyly at Mori Ogai:
"But we don't have to share the risk. The leader probably doesn't want to see this kind of ending."
This kind of ending?
The vague words made Mori Ogai couldn't help but raise his mind. Simply, the doubts did not exist for long, and the answer to the question was answered by the leader himself.
"Himeno Shinji proposed an unprecedented treatment plan for me."
In the leader's bedroom with the curtains tightly closed, Mori Ogai, who was conducting a routine physical examination for the leader, looked at his eyes, nose, mouth, and heart. What stood out was one No distractions.
The leader was very satisfied with the doctor's honest duty and continued:
"The specific implementation plan is easy to say and difficult to say. At least there are no successful cases in the world, but once successful, the effect will be significant.
Hearing the joy and complacency in the leader's tone, Mori Ogai expressed his shock thoughtfully:
"Is there such a powerful treatment plan?" "Yes. "
The leader closed his eyes and felt the first-generation vitality potion on him. Looking at the changes in his aging body, he said with a smile:
"It's a brain transplant surgery."
Ogai Mori's hand that was testing the leader's pulse paused slightly, and the leader's casual voice came to his ears:
"And the brain transplant surgery he recommended to me The target, Dr. Sen’s name is clearly on the list.”:,,.
107. Chapter 107 Dr. Sen and I have a relationship today...
"Doctor Sen should know what this means... It's so pitiful. I heard from people below that your relationship with him is not bad?"
"Don't worry, Sen. Doctor, I am telling you this because I am not interested in your body."
"After all, since I want a young and strong body, why should I choose Dr. Sen when there are more choices? Fifteen-six Wouldn't it be better to be a 20-year-old boy?"
"I think back then, it was at the age of Dr. Himeno that I and my companions created the prototype of the Port Mafia..."
The old leader's voice slowly echoed in Mori Ogai's voice. There was a ringing in his ears, which made the man who lowered his head to listen quietly couldn't help but feel nervous. There was a hint of bitterness in the smile at the corner of his mouth, and he softly echoed the leader's words.
This pressing sense of depression lingered in his heart until he left the leader's office.
"...I see, no wonder Himeno Shinji would say something like that..."
Recalling what the boy said to him in the laboratory a week ago, Mori Ogai let out a long breath.
It's really difficult to deal with. He is indeed a boy who is particularly favored by teachers. In this way, Himeno Shinji has a reason for his strange attitude towards him.
But Himeno Shinji, who had already anticipated the leader's suspicious nature and greedy desires, wouldn't he have guessed that the leader would covet his body more than his own?
After hearing about the "brain replacement plan" from the leader, it became reasonable for the leader to frequently rely on Himeno Shinji's various preferential treatment and the close trust demonstrated everywhere in the past month or so.
Thinking about it carefully, even a person like Ogai Mori, who is used to life and death and who uses all means to achieve his own goals, can't help but feel a little cold on his back.
No matter how risky the "brain replacement surgery" is to implement successfully, the confidentiality is indeed perfect. If the leader hadn't told him about it out of consideration for his own interests, he would have surpassed the "vital vitality potion" with an eye-catching rate of 100 % temptation, discovering the dark secrets hidden behind biopharmaceuticals is also a big challenge for him.
But did Himeno Shinji really not expect that the leader would choose to cooperate with him under the temptation of desire for a younger body?
On the way back to the underground experimental base, Mori Ogai walked in the empty corridor. He calmly distanced himself from his emotions amidst the sound of his leather shoes hitting the ground.
——"But we can avoid sharing the risk. The leader probably doesn't want to see this ending." The
young man's voice was so happy that it seemed as if there was no sadness in it. Mori Ogai tried his best to recall it . Every step of getting along with Shinji Himeno, from conducting experiments in front of him without any hesitation, to the "good guy card" that made him silent for a while.
——He had to regretfully admit that with enough information, for someone like Shinji Himeno, the possibility of not being able to see through the cold and sticky desires of the leader could only be "0".
"So, that sentence is a code for cooperation."
Standing in front of the closed password door of the experimental base, Mori Ogai's deep purple eyes were filled with waves.
Himeno Shinji and the leader both signaled cooperation to a small doctor like him, so who should be chosen?

The atmosphere of the Port Mafia is gradually getting better.
In this regard, the middle and lower-level members of the Port Mafia who had experienced the long-term high-pressure torture after the leader became seriously ill were the happiest. They could not help but thank the "nutritionist who took care of the leader's body".
"I heard that the gentleman is still conducting research on agents to promote wound healing. My brother in the logistics department revealed that after the third phase of clinical trials are completed, he will consider putting it into tissue use."
"Wow, is it true? Is it true? Are we going to have new supplies of medicine again? This is great! The transportation line to the east was robbed by GSS guys some time ago. There is not enough medicine, so brothers are waiting."
"That's great, the leader is sick. Well, I will be able to return to my previous wise and decisive appearance soon..."
"Shhh, please keep your voice down, the leader is going to the interrogation department for a trip."
A similar conversation happened to everyone who was being questioned . Among the middle and lower class people who suffered terribly due to the unstable temper when the leader was ill.
But for ambitious high-level cadres, the return of the leader to health may not be good news.
"As expected of the leader's favorite superpower, Mr. Ozaki, it was only two years since that incident happened, but he has regained the leader's trust so quickly... Ah, no wonder, after all, someone is doing it for the leader. He doesn't hesitate to take the initiative to become someone else's test subject due to his condition..."
Sanyang Toga, whose supernatural ability is metal manipulation, is one of the top five cadres of the Port Mafia, and is also the most aggressive psychic with supernatural powers. When the leader is seriously ill, During these days, he was probably the person who least expected the leader to regain his sanity. After all, as long as the leader passed away due to illness, the person most likely to take over as leader could only be selected from among the five cadres.
Ozaki Momiji is just a young girl who had a sharp conflict with the leader a year ago; Kuronuma Ikeda is good at making money, but without any special powers, he is a softie; Colonel is loyal to the leader, but He is just too loyal, no matter how powerful he is, what’s the use? Guys without ambition are not worthy of participating in this power struggle.
When he breaks down the details, the one that worries him the most is Takichi Kugawa, another cadre in charge of the port mafia's foreign trade business, who is also a person with supernatural powers.
Sanyang Toga planned carefully and carefully, almost wiping out all the brains in his head that only knew how to fight - just waiting to take charge of the huge port mafia after the leader died of illness.
However, all desires and hopes slowly turned into dust after the appearance of Himeno Shinji.
The relationship between Ozaki Momiji and this reckless man was not good. Even after hearing Toga's words, the girl in red kimono just glanced over calmly, with a sarcastic smile on her lips, and walked straight forward.
For her, who was in charge of torture and intelligence, Toga Sanyang's scheming and methods were simply too direct. If she wasn't so good at fighting, she wouldn't have known how she managed to get into the position of a cadre.
As for being willing to be a guinea pig?
Thinking of the young man she met under Mori Ogai's introduction a week ago, Ozaki Momiji lowered her eyes, which seemed to be a respectful gesture, but the dark light in her eyes flickered, showing that she was not in a peaceful state of mind.
To put it bluntly, that child is undeniably a genius. Once the technology that the boy bluntly named "Super Power Energy Extraction" is announced, the situation in the entire island country's super power world will undergo earth-shaking changes—— A downright dangerous man.
But Ozaki Momiji's intuition told her that Himeno Shinji was not here.
Similar to but different from conventional researchers, Ozaki Momiji could feel from Himeno Shinji his overwhelming curiosity for unknown results, but the boy did not necessarily seek the end of this curiosity. answers or paranoid pursuits.
He is more like a witness, a weirdo who studies simply to satisfy his curiosity.
Of course, it would be best if such a genius weirdo was not serving the leader or the mafia.
Blocking all thoughts about Himeno Shinji, Ozaki Momiji pushed open the door of the leader's conference room against the angry and resentful eyes of the people behind him.
Today is a meeting of the five major cadres held secretly by the leader. As a large organization, the five major cadres perform their own duties, and business in various fields requires them to make decisions. Under normal circumstances, three cadres can stay in Yokohama at the same time. It is extremely rare. Meetings that require the participation of five major cadres at the same time often have serious topics.
For example, discussing the successor to the next leader of the Port Mafia.
Not to mention how surprised they were to see the leader who had completely recovered from his illness and was more than ten years younger, nor how excited they were to know that the theme of the meeting was Toga Sanyo and Kugawa Takichi - coming out of the conference room, Ozaki Momiji looked at Underneath his seemingly calm expression were pupils that were so shocked that they almost collapsed.
...Just now, who did that guy say he chose as the successor to the leader?
Did she really hear that name correctly?
That person, judging from the legal age, is not even sixteen years old -
"Are you ready? Dr. Mori."
The small setbacks at the meeting of the five major cadres did not affect the leader's good mood. Now he has received a small physical therapy plan from Shinji Himeno. After a month of conditioning, he not only changed his previous vicissitudes and sluggishness, but also looked more than ten years younger. It is no exaggeration to say that his current physical fitness is comparable to his own physical fitness ten years ago.
But since there is a chance to return to the youth of fifteen years old, how can we be satisfied with the old age of fifty-five years old?
Under the pressure of the leader, even tough men like Toga and Jiuchuan could only accept the destined outcome.
The leader walked out of the conference room and came to his rest room through the side door, where Mori Ogai had been waiting for a long time.
"Get ready. I have confirmed Dr. Himeno's itinerary last night. I have also checked all the small mechanisms installed in the laboratory by the engineering team last night. As long as you press this controller, it is enough to stun three Asians. The elephant's new anesthetic will be sprayed out."
Ogai Mori, who had already changed into surgical clothes, respectfully handed over the controller, expressing his obedience while pushing another colleague into the abyss of death.
The leader couldn't wait to press the controller, and then took the elevator to the third underground floor.
Just as he planned, Himeno Shinji, who was "unprepared" in the state of anesthesia, fainted on the ground. Mori Ogai carried the defenseless young man and followed the leader to the second underground floor, where he was already prepared. In a good sterile laboratory.
The preliminary procedures for the brain transplant surgery have been prepared for a long time. The distance between the two operating tables is only half a meter, just to facilitate the movement of the only doctor Ogai Mori.
"I only told Colonel the real plan to one person, Dr. Mori. Think about the advice Dr. Himeno gave me before, and complete this operation well. The next leader will be you, Ogai Mori..."
Looking at Ogai Mori, Respectfully and carefully injecting the new anesthetic into his skinny arm, the leader gave a meaningful final warning.
But can the leader who kept the secret of the brain transplant surgery to his only confidant really let go of the surgeon Ogai Mori?
Watching the leader on the operating table slowly lose consciousness, Mori Ogai's slightly timid and nervous expression gradually turned into an indifferent look.
The cold scalpel peeled open the leader's skull, revealing the tender brain tissue underneath.
It was a small piece of brain, weighing just over a kilogram. It was complicated and cumbersome to completely separate the brain from the internal organs. More than an hour later, Mori Ogai finally completely peeled off the brain from the ugly and old body.
Then, he threw it into a transparent container filled with semi-gelatinous substances as if throwing away garbage. Then he took the scalpel and turned around and walked to another two-hand table.
His purple eyes stared motionlessly at Himeno Shinji on the operating table for half a minute. During this half minute, countless thoughts passed through his mind one by one. From these thoughts as numerous as stars, Mori Ogai calmly I thought about them one by one, weighed them one by one, and rejected them one by one. I was forced to accept the only "optimal solution" under this situation until I had nothing to think about.
Placing the scalpel on the cabinet between the operating table and the operating table, Mori Ogai slowly took off his gloves and tiredly called the name of the boy who was supposed to be in a coma:
"Manager Himeno, have you had enough fun? It's time? woke up."
【? ? ! Fuck, fuck, my mouth hasn’t stopped since just now, and I immediately connected to the account of my gay friend who gave up the live broadcast because he couldn’t stand the mosaic on the screen! 】
【As expected of you, Himeno Shinji, as expected, the leader’s thought was just that of the leader, I’m not surprised:)】
【Did you inherit the Port Mafia in this way? ! learned! ]
[Ahhhhh! It scares me to death. Although I know that Shinji will not overturn, I still feel scared when I think that the executor of the plan is Mori...]:,,.
