Stray Chapter 113: Bad taste and natural black


This is the first time Hikigaya Hachiman feels that silence makes people uncomfortable. He is obviously a lonely person. Wasn't he often regarded as air in the past? Shouldn't this kind of thing be commonplace?

However, no matter how much he told himself in his heart, the silence that had enveloped the two of them from the very beginning still made him uncomfortable.

In order to resolve this anxiety, Hikigaya Hachiman subconsciously scratched his head, no matter what, it is more important to say something casually now.

He hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand and gestured, as if trying to explain why he appeared in front of Yui Hama: "I will actually come to you, ah no, I mean I will appear in This is because... Hiratsuka-sensei just asked me to tell me... She must let me come to you..."

He also knew that his tone was a little excited, but the anxiety in his heart couldn't be relieved, and it became more and more intense.

However, the more anxious he is, the more mistakes he will make, so that his originally simple sentence feels a little fragmented.

"That's it... It turns out that it was Hiratsuka-sensei's request that you came out, so I'll say it... Hahaha~"

But Yuihama Yui immediately understood the general ins and outs. After she was stunned for a while, she pretended to be hearty and let out that kind of social laughter, then looked away and looked across the road.

“…”

“…”

Hikigaya Hachiman fell silent. He knew that he had screwed up again. When he explained why he came out to find Yui Yui, he realized that he had chosen the wrong option.

He wanted to explain why he came here, and subconsciously made an excuse for himself, but he suddenly realized that if he came like this, it would be tantamount to explaining to Yubihama, "It's all Hiratsuka-sensei who asked me to come, I actually I don't want to come to you"...

There was another silence, the two of them couldn't speak for a while, and finally Yuihama Yui smirked first:

"Actually, you don't have to worry about me, it's not what you think... I... I'm fine, don't worry, if you have nothing to do, you can go back, I'll tell Hiratsuka-sensei later... …”

Hikigaya Hachiman hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Sorry, I seem to have worried you...but the reason why I am alone like this is all my own relationship, not related to the accident. You really don't have to sympathize with me, and don't feel indebted..."

"It's not like that...it's not like that at all..."

Yukihama interrupted him suddenly, she spoke softly.

Although her mouth was smiling, her face was lowered for some reason, leaving only the faint voice trembling.

“…”

“…”

Hikigaya Hachiman felt that the current situation was simply tormenting for him, and he was silent, not knowing what to say.

Actually he's not slow, he's even very sensitive, to the point of allergies.

But that's why he has an allergic reaction. Whether it's someone else guessing and losing, playing a punishment game to confess to him; or a fake love letter written by a girl and asked by a boy to give him...

He has experienced all these things, looking forward to it again and again, and failing again and again... I don't know when it started, he no longer holds out hope. Precisely because he has learned countless times, a well-trained lone ranger will not be deceived again and again. He is a battle-hardened strong man!

Hikigaya Hachiman took a deep breath and decided not to tangle anymore. Yubihama is a very gentle girl, but this has nothing to do with him. If the truth is cruel, then the lie must be very gentle.

Leave as soon as possible, it's not good for anyone to be entangled like this! That's right, it's decided!

"Then I'll go back first. It's very hot outside. You shouldn't stay too long, Yubihama. You can see that no one else came out at this time..."

Speaking of this, Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly stopped, looked around subconsciously, and seemed to realize something after realizing it.

I don't know when it started, but the surrounding environment suddenly became as silent as a forest. The whole street was empty, there was no half-person figure, and it was so quiet that his ears were aching.

None.

There are office buildings standing neatly on both sides, but no one comes in or out. The pedestrian path that used to feel very narrow is now inexplicably widened.

Hikiya Hachiman's first reaction was to feel a strange feeling. He looked around and found that half of the passersby could not see it.

And when he turned his head and glanced at the entrance of the exhibition hall behind him, the original subtle and wonderful feeling turned into a very obvious "abnormal".

Without any sound, it seemed that the whole world was quiet for a moment. He didn't even think that at this moment, all the human beings in the world suddenly disappeared, leaving only him and Yuihama Yui. personal.

It's really... so anomalous.

I can't tell what the reason is, and a completely indescribable feeling suddenly surged in his heart.

Some trembling, some fear, because all this is a bit abnormal, although this is not a shopping street, it won't be too lively, but it won't be so quiet, right? It was so quiet that it was as if... even the atmosphere was dead.

"Well, you go back first..." Yubihama Yui was depressed, she lowered her head and said sullenly, not noticing the changes in the surrounding environment.

"Yubahama, let's go back together..."

Hikigaya Hachiman interrupted her in a low voice. He couldn't tell if he was being overly sensitive right now and was frightening himself with paranoia, but subconsciously he didn't want to leave Yui Yui and leave her alone here Faced with a situation that might happen.

"Huh?" The girl froze for a moment.

"I said, let's go back together, don't you think it's too quiet around here?" Hikigu Hachiman said seriously without looking back, "I always feel like something is going to happen, it feels too much. It's weird..."

“…”

“…”

"What's the matter? Why didn't you speak?" Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly felt that something was wrong and turned his head subconsciously.

The next moment, his pupils shrunk to the size of pinpoints, and his heart almost stopped.

That's a scene that only happens in horror movies. It's like a terrifying scene like Sadako crawling out of the TV. A dark crack was torn in the air, blood red The eyes stared at the outside world without emotion.

Among them, a figure of existence walked out, as if appearing from a two-dimensional plane into a three-dimensional universe.

The long black hair is casually draped, the delicate face does not show gender, the white robe looks simple, and the secondary sexual characteristics cannot be seen from the physical characteristics. The ethereal temperament similar to divinity also seems to cover all human nature such as joy, anger and sorrow, and it also reveals some obvious malice...

Something that is both human and not human, beyond human comprehension.

Time stops at this moment.

For a split second, the atmosphere on the sidewalk froze because it felt like absolute zero.

Hikigaya Hachiman felt his body stiff as if the blood had stopped flowing, unable to move at all.

This is a kind of beast instinct that has been associated with danger since ancient times. Intuition is giving a strong warning, telling him that if he moves now, the stagnant air will directly dissolve, and then...

It will attract the attention of this terrible inhuman thing for the first time, and if it is not noticed, it is possible to escape this disaster.

Wait, wait, no, I overlooked something. There were only myself and Yubihama at the scene. If he hadn't been targeted, wouldn't it mean that Yubihama would have...

In an instant, Hikigaya Hachiman, who understood this most basic principle, felt the strongest fear in his life for the first time.

He felt like his body was shaking, but he forced himself to do something in order to make Yubihama's reaction happen a little later.

However—

"Please, may I ask, you...what are you...who..." The weak voice was trembling, although it was said in a low voice, but before Hikigu Hachiman forced himself to react, he would A step sounded.

“…!!”

Hikigaya Hachiman's brain went blank, and this faint trembling voice sounded as harsh as the thunder in the middle of the night at this moment!

He turned his head blankly, and found that the girl was so scared that her face turned pale, but the eyes full of tears were looking straight at him, and he didn't look away at all. When he saw that he looked over, he still tried hard Forced to squeeze out a smile...

With a bang, Hikigaya Hachiman felt like her brain was going to explode—she really wasn't foolish enough to understand the situation, she was thinking the same thing!

The existence that looks like a human but is definitely not a human being. It seems that because of Yuihama Yui's voice, she focused her attention on the girl. A powerful thought force instantly extended and grabbed her like a doll. took the past.

"Ah-!!"

Although she stood up very bravely and attracted attention, at this moment, the girl instinctively screamed, tears squeezed from the corners of her eyes, and she shivered.

"Relax, I will take you out of this world..."

The magician of the realm said calmly, and a beautiful sound like a movement sounded, but the source of the sound was constantly changing direction, and the strange noise mixed in was incomprehensible.

And probably out of bad taste, "he" not only made Hikigaya Hachiman's reaction just one step slower than Yuihama Yui, but also said it very ambiguous at this time - what makes people leave this world? Yes, it smells of blood no matter what.

In an instant, Yubihama's face became even more pale, and the only blood color completely disappeared.

His eyes widened even more than Keiya Hachiman, just one sentence made his heart almost freeze, as if someone had driven an icicle directly into his chest, almost suffocating.

"Stop, stop—!!"

He almost roared at the inhuman thing, and at the same time, the reflex nerves of his body acted faster than the instructions of his brain, and he rushed forward quickly.

……

……

"Kato-san, why are you the only one who came back?"

In the Salia family restaurant, Yukinoshita frowned slightly and looked at the calm girl in front of her, but she didn't see another person.

Could it be that Xia Ran is ready to act? After all, just now, the mind chain suddenly disconnected, and it no longer continued to broadcast the live pictures of Yuhihama-san in real time, and at the same time, no news was conveyed...

Maybe you think those two people are hopeless, so you plan to do it yourself?

But it shouldn't be so silent... Yukinoshita suddenly had a bad premonition.

"This... Xia Ran may not be able to come here for the time being." Kato Kei thought for a while and said calmly.

"Why?"

"Just now, a blond girl approached him..." Kato Megumi recalled seriously, and then described Yakumo Zi's appearance a little, and Yukinoshita's face suddenly changed No, she knew who that blond girl was.

"So he left with that demon... that woman? Let us doves?"

"No, it's not like this..." Kato Megumi shook her head quickly, she didn't know how to describe what she saw, so she could only try hard to find an adjective, "He's just with that girl... Now he's completely stuck. Together, it seems that there is no plan to separate for the time being..."

“…”

“…”
