"Although I know this day will always come, but it's a little too soon..."

Looking at the guests brought back behind Rai, Mori Ogai smiled, but the smile could not reach his eyes. He bent down and said to Rai in his usual gentle tone -

"You have to be at least 12 years old to fall in love, Rai-chan."

"...It's too early."

The age limit given by Mori Ogai left Rai speechless, and he subconsciously ignored the issue that actually deserved more explanation.

"Early, puppy love?! Say, what are you talking about! I won't, and, this guy -"

The children living in Laibo Street are very precocious, and the Sheep King, who understands everything, became incoherent at this time.

"This is Nakahara Chuuya. He sent me home because he was worried that I would be in danger."

After hearing Rai's explanation, Mori Ogai smiled knowingly, "So that's it. What a kind-hearted kid. Do you want to come in and sit down?"

"No, no need."

Mori Ogai's first impression on Nakahara Chuuya was not good. Although he had a kind smile on his face, he felt like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark and sizing up his prey. His cold breath and Rai's sunshine

Very different from the mild smell.

Are they really father and daughter?

Apart from their surname Mori and their black hair, Mori Ogai and Mori Rai had nothing in common with Nakahara Chuuya.

"Is he really your father?"

Worrying about the plight his friend might encounter, Zhongyuan Zhongya blurted out the very rude words directly to his face.

Nakahara Chuya didn't care what bad impression he would leave on this man, but he had to hear reassurance from the girl's mouth that would reassure him.

"Relax, there's nothing like that in your head."

Rai waved his hand, "Although Rintaro is a bad person and doesn't look like a good person. He always likes to chase lolita around the house with his little dress, but it was Rintaro who took me in. He hasn't done anything yet.

Do bad things to me."

It doesn't sound reassuring at all! It feels like this is a pervert who is plotting evil against you!

Nakahara also wanted to shake Rai's shoulders vigorously to make her wake up.

"If you say that, people will misunderstand you, Rai-chan."

Mori Ogai did not get angry because of this. Instead, he told Nakahara Chuuya a piece of his perverted behavior, "Alice-chan and I went out today and saw a dress that suits you very well. I have already bought it. Wait a minute."

Can you wear it for me to see?"

"If it's not cute, I won't wear it."

"Lei-chan, are you agreeing? I'm so happy. You and Alice-chan are both my beloved little cotton-padded jackets."

Nakahara Chuuya looked at the father and daughter in front of him, his expression slightly cracked. Except for him, no one present seemed to think there was anything wrong with this conversation. Mori Ogai even invited him very enthusiastically.

"Chuuya-chan, do you want to stay and take a look at Rai-chan's new dress? I personally selected it. It will definitely bring out Rai-chan's lovely and healing angelic aura. It would be a pity not to take a look at it."

"unnecessary!"

Zhongyuan Zhongya took a few steps back in disgust, "Don't call me with that tone."

In the end, the separation was an unhappy one for Nakahara Chuuya. Facing the innocent and confused look on the girl's face who was unaware that she was in a wolf's den, he didn't know why he was holding a wolf's nest in his stomach.

Huo angrily left under the watch of two people.

"...Then he must be the King of Sheep."

After Nakahara Chuuya left, Mori Ogai finally stopped hiding it and showed a very crazy expression about discovering the diamond, "You have really good eyes, it's a very rare seedling."

"Then what?"

Rai looked at him sideways, "What do you want to do?"

"Don't look at me like I'm going to do something bad, Rai."

Mori Ogai said with a smile: "In today's world, it is very dangerous for girls to be outside. I just love my daughter and want to find a knight who can protect her. I think that child is very good."

"If you want to contact Chuuya, that's your freedom, but don't use me as an excuse."

"I heard that he is a superpower who can control gravity."

Mori Ogai further probed: "If one day your dear father is seriously injured by him, Rai-chan will seek justice for me."

"That's what you deserve."

Rai read with a smooth voice: "Furthermore, dear father, you are an enemy that you cannot defeat, can you bear to let your helpless and weak daughter seek justice for you?

"

"As for being thick-skinned, it's better than we are biologically biological."

Mori Ogai turned over the topic with a half-smile, and talked about something that sounded insignificant, "Spring is coming."

"That's spring elsewhere."

Rai looked at the falling snowflakes in the sky and exhaled a breath of white air, "Yokohama is close to the sea. Its geographical location should have four distinct seasons and a pleasant climate. It is very rare for the temperature to be below 0 degrees. It is almost February now.

, but there is still heavy snowfall, this kind of city must be cursed."

That seems to be true. In Rai's eyes, Yokohama is simply a den for cursed spirits. If you want to perform a curse ritual, Yokohama is the best choice.

"Yes, it goes against common sense."

Mori Ogai stayed outside with Rai, staring at the desolate scene of heavy snow, "When I was very young, it was often sunny in Yokohama in winter, and the sea view I enjoyed at Yokohama Pier was always beautiful no matter what season it was.

It’s so beautiful.”

It's a pity that the beautiful sea has lost its original pure color due to the continuous influx of blood.

"This is the first time I heard you talk about your past, Rintaro." Rai looked at him in surprise.

Mori Ogai let out a chuckle, and the curve of the corner of his mouth was vaguely visible, "Yokohama is so degenerate now, I suddenly felt it.

Spring has gradually entered other parts of Japan, but Yokohama is still in the cold winter covered with snow, and the city looks like it has been abandoned by the world... In a sense, that's not wrong."

"Is this continuous heavy snow affected by supernatural powers?"

Rai asked curiously.

"Perhaps, comparable to the destructive power of nuclear bombs - in this world, some powers have such terrifying abilities. The fate of a city may only be changed by one person's thoughts. Things like affecting the weather can also

It may not be possible.”

"Where did the superpowers come from?"

Seeing that Mori Ogai seemed to be willing to continue the conversation, Rai expressed the question he had been hiding in his heart.

"Oh? Curious?"

"Yes, yes, tell me, Rintaro."

"...Lei-chan, don't act like a baby with a blank face, it's too careless."

After complaining for a while, Mori Ogai returned to the topic and showed a cold smile. The blood-red eyes in his eyes were very frightening. "It was an unrecorded period - about the struggle of human beings' desire for power."

Mori Ogai and Rai entered the clinic, and they sat next to the operating table where patients usually lay. Mori Ogai made two cups of hot tea, and then continued -

"Human beings have been unfair since they were born. Most people live a mediocre life, with ordinary births and ordinary deaths; a small number of people with a silver spoon in their mouths can easily live a life that is superior to others if there are no accidents; -

—But these two kinds of people will be deceived by the illusion of this world in their lives."

"Desire is endless. For some people, when they reach the highest status in society, enjoy all the glory and wealth, and are admired by others, no matter how much money or power they have, such superficial things are no longer difficult to achieve.

Satisfy their appetite."

"They turned their attention to things that could create 'eternity'."

Rai seemed to understand, and then showed a speechless expression, "Do they want to become gods?"

"In ordinary textbooks, 'gods' are just imaginary creatures created by humans. But if one day you learn that there is a group of people who are born with the ability to see through the nature of the world and fight against it.

With great power, do you still think that 'god' does not exist?"

"The group of people you are talking about...could he be referring to the magicians?"

Ley began to take his seat,

"Oh, you really know."

Mori Ogai didn't mean that Rai would pronounce the word "magician". He continued with a smile: "Currently, the number of active magicians recorded by Neon is only three digits. These hundreds of people are knowing about them."

In the eyes of some ordinary and ignorant people, there are existences that can become gods."

"So, the emergence of superpowers is actually related to the magician."

Ley couldn't help but spit out a taboo word, "human/body experiment."

"You're so smart, Rai. You can guess a lot about what's going to happen next."

"I want to continue listening to you."

"I don't know the specifics. But think about it, how can a person who has been in high positions and in charge of power, arrogant and arrogant his entire life be willing to look at the face of a conjurer?"

Mori Ogai looked down on those who had ordinary abilities but couldn't understand their own weight, but he could understand their thoughts.
