Chapter 43: One Three
Alice, who turned into a Nightmare Butterfly, chose an unmanned dark alley and turned back to her loli body.
Walking out of the dim alley, the bustling streets instantly came into view.
It seems that this is no different from the Tokyo shopping street in her previous dream.
Except for the fact that there are not as many people in Yokohama as in Tokyo, there is no change in everything else.
Alice, walking along the sidewalk, stopped in front of the glass window of a jewelry store. Through the street images reflected on the glass surface, Alice saw the little tail following her at some point.
It seemed as if Alice had stopped, the man stopped, wearing headphones, putting his hands in his pocket, and whistling songs on his mouth, looking around inadvertently.
Alice sighed in her heart, and sighed secretly that she was actually called by Morijiwai.
She rubbed her soft face, opened the door of the jewelry store, and walked into the jewelry store.
The man who had been looking at Alice saw this and waited outside.
There is only one entry and exit for this jewelry store, so he only needs to wait here for the rabbit.
However, half an hour passed, and an hour passed, and he still didn't wait for Alice to come out of the jewelry store.
The man who found something wrong frowned and walked quickly towards the jewelry store, opened the door and walked into the jewelry store.
"jingle--"
The second before the glass door of the jewelry store was about to close due to inertia, a petite figure flashed out from the jewelry store, but the man did not notice the fact that he had passed by the target at all.
Alice, holding a small gift bag with exquisitely packaged in her hand, humming and moving away.
The sunlight hanging high in the sky weakens, and the wind flowing in the air begins to cool down.
This means that the day is about to end and the night is coming.
Alice, who had been walking around for a long time, looked at her only gift bag and sighed.
Mr. Rampo and Brother Nakaya have already bought the gifts, but it is only the gifts of Dazai.
Originally, she wanted to give it to Dazai wholesale bandage, which was practical, but she felt that it seemed strange to give someone else's bandage on her birthday, so Alice had to give up the idea of giving a bandage.
Before we knew it, the surrounding pedestrians gradually became scarce, and the buildings standing on both sides of the street were replaced by lush green trees.
Alice stopped and looked at the park sign standing in front of her, showing a blank expression.
Where did she go?
"Rush"
A sound was made in the bushes. Alice turned her head and looked at a three-cat cat with an orange-toned back, a white belly, and a black round spots on her body, which drilled out from the dense branches and leaves. She looked at Alice with a pair of clear amber-like cat pupils, and opened her mouth and made a small cat moan.
“Meow~”
"Cat?" Alice looked at the three-cake cat, and saw that it had been staring at her, without any intention of leaving.
Alice hesitated for a moment, squatted down, put the gift bag aside, and stretched out her soft little hand towards the three-cake cat: "Cat?"
As if feeling the kindness of the bipedal beast, the three-cake cat walked to the palm of Alice's palm in elegant cat steps, carefully sniffed Alice's hand, and the tail raised behind it suddenly bent into an "S" shape and shook it. A "meow" sounded, rubbing on the palm of the bipedal beast in front of him.
A smooth touch came from under the palm. Alice observed that the cat had no collar on its neck. It was hard to imagine that cats living in the wild would have such smooth fur.
but......
Alice looked at the light golden cat-shaped soul phantom behind the three cat cats and sighed: "What a beautiful soul. Now, you can't be a fake cat that a big man has turned into, right?"
The three-cake cat, who was squinting and enjoying the caress of the two-legged beast, paused for a moment, and looked at Alice with her innocent amber cat eyes, very innocent.
“Meow~”
"Um..." Looking at the three-cake cat pretending to be stupid, Alice blinked, as if she was scrutinizing.
The three-cat cat was stiff and allowed to look at the place Alice couldn't see.
Finally, Alice sighed first and said sadly to the three-cake cat: "Forget it. Anyway, I have no grudge against you? Moreover, I have to prepare Dazai's birthday gift, which is super tired."
"Meow~" The three-cat cat's ears moved, suddenly turned around, and shouted at Alice, as if they were about to leave.
"Are you leaving?" Alice also thought it was the three-cake cat who was leaving, so she said hello to her.
“Meow~”
The three-cat cat took two steps forward, turned around, shouted at Alice twice, then turned around and took two steps forward.
Alice understood in a second, "ah", lifted her gift bag and stood up, following the steps of the three-cao cat, "Where are you going to take me to?"
Spiritual cats can understand human words, not to mention the three cats with only a light golden soul in front of them.
There is a saying that it is said that it is not the first time she has seen gold after entering a dream, but it is the first time she has seen this innocent soul mixed with white and gold.
Even gods cannot ensure that their soul is pure and innocent.
Yokohama, it's an incredible city.
Alice, who kept up with the three cats, thought so.
After turning around, Alice followed the three cats to an old bookstore.
The bookstore's signs are already full of traces left by time, and it is undoubtedly an old store.
"Meow."
The three-cao cat who led the way turned his head and screamed, then stepped on his short legs and ran into the bookstore.
Alice, who was left behind, stood there for a while before slowly opening the glass door handle of the bookstore.
It turns out that the three-cake cat was raised by someone. No wonder I understand human words. After all, it is kept in a bookstore and must be a knowledgeable cat.
Speaking of which, when Dazai is okay, he does like to read books?
Alice realized that she could give Dazai Osamu a book as his birthday gift, but when she stood in front of the bookshelf classification where Muka and Books were mixed, she was stumped by the option again.
What kind of books does Dazai like?
Philosophy is too complicated, she won’t pick it. Moreover, the purpose of Dazai’s reading is to fully understand different chemicals? and then realize his dream of pursuing death without pain...
Ah, a serious bookstore shouldn’t have books that teach people how to kill themselves, right?
Alice frowned, and when she was about to give up, a kind voice came from behind.
"Does the little lady want to buy books?"
Alice turned around and looked at an old man in a dark brown windbreaker standing there with a smile, with a long linen slanted right ear hair exposed from the black round hat, and a simple crutch in her hand.
Huh?
Alice looked at the golden soul behind the middle-aged man, and faced the amber eyes that were shining with the light of wisdom and smiles. She seemed to understand something.
So that's it. It's not just a cat with knowledge, it's originally human.
Alice, who had figured it out, didn't expose him, and raised an innocent smile at the old man: "Well! I want to buy a book related to death for him...a book related to death for him. Is there a grandpa here?"

Speaking of the dark alley, Mo Li thought of a legend circulating in Wen Ye: As we all know, there is only this alley in Yokohama.
