Chapter 110 That Man, Homecoming
Chapter 110 That Man, Homecoming
Many times the weather will completely ignore people's mood, it will rain heavily when people are eager to relax, and it will be sunny and sunny when people are sad and depressed.
Fortunately, the weather in Yokohama today is just in line with my mood. The warm sunshine shines on the streets crowded with shops. It is a good day to travel and visit friends.
I walked through the streets of Yokohama with a serious expression on my face, holding the gift package tightly in my arms, which must have made me look more miserable than usual.
It's not that I'm in a bad mood, it's all about balance.After all, I'm holding a package stuffed with gifts for a dozen people, each with its own weight.
Although I really want to throw away part of it quietly to reduce the burden, if I don't want to be regarded as a miser by the recipient of the gift, I can only force myself to carry the burden like this.
Why on earth do I have to?
Because I'm back, back to my original world.
As for how to pass the road that only I can pass and successfully realize autonomous crossing, let’s ignore this process. The difficulties that have been solved are no longer difficulties. I have more important issues that deserve more attention.
The mood I felt when I left through time travel had gone so far that I was quite apprehensive about "coming back", and it was hard to imagine what kind of situation I would face.
Maybe it was a mess of school work - after all, the other me obviously has no basis for being a teacher.
Immediately after my return, I will have to pick up another mess I left behind, and plunge into the life of a broken dog without any respite.Here I have to pray that the academy is tolerant and patient enough to at least give me a chance to make amends.
Or maybe everything is going well, just as successful as my experience after time travel.There will be a party waiting for me, like the seven dwarfs in a fairy tale surrounding Snow White, everyone pulls me to sing and dance, and the sky is full of colorful balloons.
The more frightening possibility is that everyone pays special attention to my experience and will control me in a very exaggerated way for a long interrogation.
I may be forced to make choices and pay the price in the dilemma of life or death.For example, in order to conceal that there are two copies of "The World", choose Dare in Truth or Dare.
As for more possible situations, I can't imagine it, and it can also be explained that I dare not think about it.
The so-called "near hometown feeling timid" is like this. Rather than appearing in front of everyone with my head held high, I want to be fully prepared first.
And this preparation—please forgive my extremely limited imagination, all I can think of is to prepare the gift as much as possible, so that everyone who receives the gift will be happy.
Before the actual gift distribution, I made an attempt, and first sent the prepared gift to Xingyue.
I gave her a page from the "book" and wrote my best wishes for her on it.What is referred to here is the "book" that is of great importance.
For the sake of reducing trouble, I didn't tell the Supernatural Secret Service Section.Although the things were entrusted to me by the Supernatural Secret Service Division, and I stole them myself.
This gift is the result of my racking my brains after studying Xingyue's theory of "exploiting loopholes" hard.
With this page, she can freely enter and exit the "world where Oda Sakunosuke is the leader", and is no longer bound by the laws of the corresponding world.Even the future of time that she cannot observe can be reached.
I think that if a "passport" is issued to a "non-existent person", then the "non-existent person" is equivalent to having an "identity".
When Xingyue is wandering and traveling in various worlds, she may hope for a harbor of docking or a short-term residence.After all, travel is exciting and tiring.
And compared to being each other's passers-by, Xingyue always needs to make more friends, right?
In fact, when I actually gave this gift, I was still a little hesitant. I thought it would be too shabby to give a thin page of paper as a gift, but Xingyue's reaction was quite excited.
"Wow, I'm so touched! Thank you, Uncle Odasaku! My whole life is worth it!"
Xingyue hugged me fiercely, and for a moment I suspected that she wanted to strangle my ribs.
But since she said "this life is worth it", she must like my gift very much.
I got some encouragement, so I gathered up enough courage to distribute gifts to everyone I haven't seen for a long time.
A child with long white hair passed me by on the road. It seemed to be a student from the school next door, with a youthful braid in his hair.
I shouldn't have known him at first, but according to the information I got from another world, he was the long-dead Bai Qilin.
Then another black-haired foreign kid chased after him to fight, and the two were obviously good friends.Obviously in the hot summer vacation, but I still want to wear a thick fleece hat.
The dark-haired boy was even more familiar to me, Fyodor who had never done anything in this world to piss me off.
In this world, they just set up the "Apple Suicide Club" and were not involved in any major international incidents related to life and death. They are neither dead nor criminals, which is great.
I slowed down and watched the two children I knew on one side walk away, filled with a sense of wonder, touched by a strange sense of peace.
Although they are the same people, they spend different lives in multiple worlds.
If I hadn't experienced such two contrasting worlds, if I hadn't gained double life experience, how could I have written two copies of "Shixiang"?
Writing a story is writing a life, and I really have to be grateful for all of this.
If you need to sum up your inner feelings, if someone asks me how I feel after being forced to cross the world to do so many things that I didn't have to do, and go through so much trouble, then my answer must be the feeling of cherishing and thanking.
I have gained too much, how can I repay everyone?
Thinking about it, I was really terrified, with a heavy feeling that I had monopolized all the benefits.
I struggled to walk into the school with the gift package in my arms.It's summer vacation, and the academy should be empty.
But Xingyue told me that in order to welcome me, everyone specially prepared an incredible drama performance for me, and gathered in the academy every day to rehearse.
It seemed that it was originally a drama prepared for the school anniversary.But because I knew that I was coming back, I temporarily changed the schedule and had to perform in front of me.
What an incredible drama?
The drama that will be staged on the school anniversary seems to be related to everyone's daily life, and it is common sense that there will not be too surprising content.
But I have not been a trainee teacher for a long time, and I haven't participated in the school celebration of this school. According to the situation of this school, I speculate that the content may be quite amazing...
I thought about it, trying to crane my neck past the gift wrap blocking my view, looking for a place where everyone might gather.
Is it in an empty classroom or a playground?
Rounding a hallway, what appeared to be a real gun popped up and was pointed at me.
"Put down the things in your hand and stand still and don't move, or I will shoot." The other party said.
Well, my imagination really sucks, I didn't expect this kind of scene at all.Anyway, I acted as I was told.
In fact, I have indeed reached the limit, and I can't hold these gifts at all.
Dazai was wearing a dark black suit, with an overly serious face, and his iris-colored eyes were staring at me inexplicably.His hand was steady, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed at my head without any movement.
He said to me in a low tone: "My lord, the leader of the port Mafia, I don't know why you are here?"
Am I in the wrong world?
Before I could answer, Ango came out from behind Dazai. He was also wearing a dark suit that was too mature for a student, his expression and tone were very serious: "Your Excellency, Chief Oda, if there is nothing important, you should not show up." right?"
If it is important, there is indeed one thing, and that is to give everyone gifts.
I once promised to give Dazai and Ango a summer vacation present.Although it was just a joking promise, I was very lucky to come back from time travel just in time for the summer.Therefore, the gifts to be given to these two people were decided early in the morning.
I bent down and took out a large gift box of canned crabmeat and a biography of a character in another world from the package, and handed them out: "The important thing is this, a gift for you two."
Dazai smiled immediately, threw the gun to Ango beside him, took the gift box and sat on the floor, opened a can and started to eat on the spot.
An Wu hurriedly took the gun, held it in his arms and stared at Dazai fiercely: "Didn't Dazai-kun say that he must scare Odasaku-sensei into a big jump? He still insisted on dragging me along, so it's over? "
While chewing the crab meat, Dazai responded vaguely: "Oh, I've already tried it, and I can't do anything without scaring it. Anyway, it's up to you from now on, don't disturb me to enjoy the delicious food."
"Dazai-kun is true."
Ango shook his head annoyed and took the book as usual, and read the words on the cover: "He is a hero of the world and a living legend, the best Japanese powerhouse of this century - Fukuchi Sakurachi! The book announces Mr. Fukuchi for the first time. Don't miss the detailed review of the film adapted from personal experience!"
After reading this, Ango paused subtly: "Ah... well, it seems very philosophical."
I nodded, deeply convinced: "Maybe it is indeed a book full of philosophy."
This is the best-selling biography of a character in another world. The protagonist Fukuji Sakurachi's experience of resolving disasters around the world has been filmed three times. He is a very remarkable celebrity, and he is very different from an ordinary man like me.
When choosing a gift for Ango, I chose this book on purpose. It has the characteristics of a different world. There are no such heroes in this extremely peaceful world.
At the same time, this book is also the heaviest, and the format is a circle larger than other books, which is very imposing as a gift.
"Anyway, thank you Mr. Odasaku for the gift." There was a smile in Ango's voice, "Also, welcome back."
Dazai also raised his head and waved at me, muttering indistinctly while chewing: "Welcome back...Odasaku."
I found that in just two sentences, Dazai had already eaten a can of crab meat to the bottom. If he continued to eat according to this efficiency, the canned crab meat I brought back might not be enough for Dazai to eat until the next day.
Oops, I ran out of gift belts, do I have to go back in time and buy more to make up for it?
However, I really don't want to experience that disgusting crossing process twice in a short time.
"Dazai, how does it taste? I don't know if there is a difference in the taste of crab meat in the two worlds." I asked, secretly deciding to ignore my worries about not buying enough canned crab meat.
"The taste is super-super-great!" Dazai replied in a long tone, "But... unfortunately, I didn't taste the difference in the flavors of different worlds. It seems that even in different worlds, crabs are just cute. grow up and be killed and canned."
An Wu squinted at him: "This is normal, what are you regretting?"
Dazai replied: "For example, the crabs in different worlds have obtained supernatural powers to train themselves and fight with each other. In the end, the supernatural powers changed the taste and composition of the meat. As long as diners eat all of them indiscriminately, they will be poisoned and die. .I am deeply regretting that this is not the setting.”
I understood: "It's the same as eating fugu by mistake."
An Wu gritted his teeth: "This is not the point, no, this is the place where we should complain!"
I'm silent...
Ango is very good at complaining, he said so, it can only be that I didn't realize it.
Although I have experienced time travel and even became the leader of the organization, I still haven't made any progress at all.Sure enough, I'm just a hopeless, ordinary man.
I don't know why, but realizing this made me subtly relieved, and the previous feeling of closeness and cowardice dissipated like smoke.
Dazai didn't continue to eat the second canned crab meat, he put the rest back into the gift box and held it in his arms, and extended an invitation to me: "I've heard from Xingyue that the implementation of Odasaku's plan this time is a perfect score. , then come to the celebration banquet."
I couldn't help wondering: "Not only is there a drama, but there is also a celebration banquet, but Xingyue didn't tell me about this."
"Because it's a surprise." Dazai smiled triumphantly, "Do you still remember what I said about rejuvenating the stewed chicken? It's been done. It's guaranteed to be a perfect level in all aspects, and it doesn't rely on anyone's help at all, yes I did it by myself.
The key point here is the selection of mushrooms. Does Odasaku want to know how I pick mushrooms?I'm telling you, it was a legendary day, and I—"
"Wait, stop!" Seeing that Dazai was pulling me outside the school, Ango yelled and stopped us.
Dazai put on a puzzled expression: "What's the matter, Professor glasses? Oh, don't worry, you have a bowl of Vitality Stewed Chicken."
"Who wants it!" An Wu took a deep breath to calm himself down, "Teacher Sen has issued a strict order in the name of the dean, you can no longer serve that stewed chicken to anyone."
"Eh? When was this order!" Dazai was shocked.
An Wu sneered: "Just today. Dazai-kun, thanks to you, Mr. Mori has saved a lot of impression points in the hearts of the students. Everyone supports this order, and now even I am on his side."
Dazai's entire face collapsed: "Why are you like this!"
In the next period of time, I used it to appease Dazai, and then sent out all the gifts one by one, basically some snacks, small souvenirs, postcards, scenery photos with the Mafia building in the port, and according to my subordinates, very high-quality coffee beans Category.
Everyone was satisfied with the gift, the only fly in the ointment was that after receiving the candy, Sakata ate it on the spot like Dazai, but because he was in a hurry and had an accident, he choked the candy into his intake pipe, causing a small commotion.In the end I solved the crisis with the Heimlich first aid method.
Kagura praised me and insisted that I was a hidden kung fu master. He also said that he would make me jealous of Konbu, hoping that I could teach her kung fu to cheat in exams.
I regretfully told her that I can neither cheat in exams nor kung fu.
Ranpo tried a different world snack and told me that he liked it very much and hoped that I would bring him this one in the future.
I took a closer look and found that it was produced by a food company invested by the port Mafia, so I decided to invest more in the future to try to bring more different flavors for Luanbu to choose next time.
In addition, I also received some unexpected gifts in return, such as a large bouquet of flowers from Kanae, which is simple in shape, with umbrella-shaped inflorescences, and the light yellow color is very beautiful.
"These flowers are called Baimaigen, and the flower language is reunion, which is very suitable for today." She introduced it with a smile.
Everyone surrounded me and greeted me one by one, but I found that everyone's performance was not as exciting as I imagined.In short, there is no feeling of reuniting with me after a long absence.
After I raised my doubts about this point, Atsushi Nakajima replied with a dry smile: "Haha...Because there is another you during this time, I feel that I can see the teacher every day, so there is no real sense of difference."
Shimura Shinpachi also said: "It's exactly the same."
Then the three buddies Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu also unanimously seconded this view.
Sakata came over and patted me on the back: "Great hero Sakunosuke, don't look at us like this. In terms of attitude, we attach great importance to your return. The drama is still on rehearsal day today, and the content is temporarily kept secret. You can see it tomorrow. Let's go." Let's go and have a drink together."
The children protested that this was an act of cutting off Husbands, but they were ruthlessly dismissed.
This is the reality. Teachers who do not go to work during the summer vacation are still teachers, and their status has a natural depressive force on students.
In this way, I was dragged to the izakaya. Apart from Sakata and Kanae, the uncle of the western restaurant was also drinking with me.
The days in summer are very long, and we went there just in time for a long sunset. The hot wind blows into the chilled wine, and the taste in the mouth is very rich, and the feeling of passing through the tongue is even more pleasant.
When adults get together, they naturally relax their self-management. Sakata drank happily and told me a lot about what happened after I left.
He told me that the Fengyun student named Shinsuke Takasugi returned to school as soon as I left, and he was very arrogant and made trouble as soon as he came back, and then Sakata took care of it in a very handsome way.
Sakata didn't explain the specific handsome way, but described in detail how Takasugi Shinsuke regretted it, cried bitterly, was convinced, and finally fell at Sakata's feet.
Then Sakata asked me about what he had seen in the other world with his tongue out. I answered briefly, but I didn't catch the rest of what he asked.
Kanae doesn't usually drink much, and it's rare to get drunk this day. After drinking an unknown number of cups, her cheeks are flushed and her eyes are blurred. An embarrassing incident in Kano's childhood.
The uncle of the western restaurant has a good capacity for alcohol. After drinking, both Sakata and Kanae said they were tired, so he began to brag about his heroic deeds when he was young, and made fun of me by the way.
It's a pity that I didn't hear a lot of jokes, and I didn't give the uncle's expected response, which caused the uncle to quickly switch to the state of sighing: "Xiaozhi, that's it, you. I thought that going out and experiencing more would change. Yeah, but it hasn't changed at all."
I swallowed the wine in my mouth, slowed down my speech slightly to ensure my clarity of speech and asked him, "What hasn't changed?"
As a result, the uncle laughed again: "Yes, yes, that's right, hahaha!"
In the end, my uncle and I sent the two drunk people home separately. Halfway through, Sakata still vomited and stained his clothes by the side of the road.
I dragged my tired pace and walked home by myself, feeling more exhausted than grading the test papers all night. The play I promised to watch no longer mattered. I just wanted to throw myself on the bed and fall asleep.
It didn't work out as expected, I was half awake immediately after opening the door, because I found that a wall had disappeared.
Specifically, the wall that separated my house from Dazai's house disappeared.
I vaguely remember that I planned to expand the indoor area before I crossed over and left.
However, vaguely remember that this method is not used to expand?
I tentatively walked two steps towards what should be my own home.Although I was very careful, I still disturbed the air. With the rustling sounds, Dazai, Ango, Ranpo, Akutagawa, Kagura, Shinpachi, Hijikata... the children yawned and said good morning to me, Then line up to wash.
Unexpectedly, after the houses on both sides are connected, so many people can be accommodated. It is a magical effect where one plus one equals one hundred. It is as incredible as alien technology.
Now there is no need to worry about not having a pillow fight at home, the room is spacious enough for a battle.
And then another part of my mind came into full swing: "I remember that wall was supposed to be a load-bearing wall?"
Anwu squatted down and tidied up the bed without turning his head and replied: "Don't worry, I asked an expert to see it before the demolition. It is definitely a legal demolition with complete procedures, and it will not turn the apartment into a dangerous building."
I breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, this is no problem."
Dazai was the first to tidy up and walk up to me, and said, "Besides, everyone has been staying here recently for the convenience of rehearsals, and they will evacuate in an orderly manner tonight. It doesn't matter if you didn't ask for Odasaku's opinion in advance, right?"
"Ah, it's okay."
"Then let's go to school for the final rehearsal first. Odasaku should sleep well, and come to see us when we wake up in the afternoon to watch our play."
"Okay..." I agreed bluntly, focusing on the changes in my home.
With the change of the living size, the various furnishings have also changed, but all of them are in line with my wishes.
The most conspicuous change is the addition of a large desk with an ergonomic chair and eye-protecting desk lamp.
The children passed by me one by one and left, and the last one closed the door intimately.
I took off my coat and lay down on the single wooden bed that I had been away for a long time.
The bed sheets were bought in the discount section of the supermarket to celebrate the day I just got my teacher qualification certificate. They are gray and white-striped, which inexplicably matches the shirts I always love to wear.
I closed my eyes, and I didn't know when I fell into a dream. In my dream, I was a teacher living a double life, teaching human children during the day, and escaping into the night at night, teaching alien children who secretly visited the earth.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when I woke up, I hurried out, bought some food to pad my stomach on the way, and hurried to the academy to watch a play.Although I don't look forward to the drama, I don't want to disappoint the children's expectations.
The entire classroom was arranged as a gorgeous stage, and the so-called auditorium had only one chair for me. When I walked into the classroom, the children opened several firework tubes at the same time.
I found that the one in Nakaya's hand was the only one that didn't ring, and it must have been broken, but no one seemed to notice.
The absence of a single firework tube did not have any impact on the final effect. A large number of ribbons and gold powder swept everything like a gust of wind. The colorful snow fell on me, hanging on my hair and blocking half of my sight. This is the thickest textbook.I wanted to say something, but I almost swallowed a piece of gold sequins in my mouth.
The children threw away the empty firework tubes and clapped and cheered in unison: "The time for the plan has come, welcome the leader back!"
This sentence has obviously been rehearsed many times, and the voice is unified and loud, which is simply deafening.
I think, I must have shown a silly expression at the moment.
Afterwards, the children performed a wonderful play for me. The plot was very impressive to me, and a lot of tomato sauce was consumed. After the end, the whole classroom was filled with the smell of tomatoes, and the cleaning work took a week.
Afterwards, it took another whole semester before the smell of tomatoes and the hallucination of tomato taste completely dissipated.
For this reason, Principal Fukuzawa had a special talk with me, hoping that I would persuade the children to stop doing this and stop performing dramas on the school anniversary.
I only dared to nod yes, and humbly hoped that my wages would not be deducted.Although I am the leader in the other world, I am not short of money, but this world will continue to live.
In addition to all this, there are still two happy events worth mentioning.
One is that I have successfully become a full-time teacher and became a teacher officially hired by the academy.According to Kunikida-senpai, the school has never fired a teacher, which means I can rest assured and get a very stable job.
The second happy event was that Dazai read "Shixiang" and said it was very good-looking.I fulfilled my promise to have Dazai from both worlds be the first reader, and I didn't make any mistakes.
There is one more thing that I don’t know whether it’s joy or sorrow: I was confused and became an additional writer, and besides being a teacher, I also had to submit manuscripts to editors on a regular basis. My life, which was exhausted like a wild dog, seemed to be getting more and more miserable.
It seems that no matter which side I travel to, whether I am a leader or a teacher, I can't live easily.Then, live every day seriously.
The author has something to say:
It's over, next is the extra episode.
Um?Want to see Oda work in other worlds?Yes, yes, yes.
-
The following paragraph is for the fresh and enthusiastic readers who have seen this chapter soon:
"Annoyance, click in again to see if the mixed green onion and cabbage is cheating, can you take a break? When did people cheat you?"
One morning, I actually dreamed that my editor was urging me to write a book.Although the attitude is not bad, but I was scared awake.
I don't know if anyone can get to the point of this nightmare.It doesn't matter how the editor reminds me in the dream, it is already terrifying to have such a dream!
This is no different from social animals dreaming that they are in the middle of the high school entrance examination, only 3 minutes away from handing in the paper, but there are still big questions that have not been written?
By the way, I have saved this chapter for two months!I'm so good, it's not easy to find time to save it while I'm addicted to games.
Mix green onion and cabbage, mix green onion and cabbage, how can you be so depraved!Have you forgotten the writing plan you made earlier?Can playing games be eaten as a meal?Are you sorry Odasaku?Give me a heartfelt apology.
