"Welcome. Come today too, Mr. Roman."

"excuse me."

Because the number of patrons is relatively high, the owner and waiter of the ramen shop are acquaintances, and they will take the initiative to say hello when they meet.

"Have a signature Char Siew Ramen."

"Okay, one of the signature char siu ramen, please wait."

When Roman was about to find a place to sit down, he heard another greeting.

"Brother Roman, this way!"

Looking in the direction of the incident, sitting in an inconspicuous corner of the ramen restaurant is a sloppy uncle who looks bad.

His hair stood up like a hedgehog's barbs, and was visibly dyed blond. He was wearing a Hawaiian shirt, and the buttons on it were not properly buttoned. This casual look made people feel very unhappy. His right ear has a cross earring, which is the same style as the cross hanging around his neck, but this appearance will only make people think that he is an old-fashioned uncle who failed to pursue the trend, rather than a believer.

"Oshino baa? Why are you here?"

To be precise, it should be "why are you here again". Because this frivolous man was Roman's old acquaintance, and the two often met at ramen restaurants, Roman was not too surprised when he saw Oshino Baaa, but he was already ready to see him when he came in. is ready.

"It's really energetic, Brother Roman, did something good happen?"

Listening to the familiar mantra, Roman sat down opposite Oshino Baaa.

Chapter 37 Chapter Three

Facing Oshino Baa's habitual greeting, Roman replied without thinking.

"No. A bad thing happened, that is, I met Oshino baa baa you."

Oshino baa patted her messy blonde hair and smiled embarrassedly and heartily.

He didn't refute this, because he and Roman often met at the ramen restaurant, and there was only one reason for the encounter.

Roman looked at the big bowl placed in front of Oshino Baaa, not to mention ramen, even the soup was drank completely. Although the price of this ramen restaurant is not high, for a homeless person like Oshino Baaba, it is quite a luxury to enter here to spend, and if there is nothing, he will not appear here.

But Roman Reigns saw him here more than once, and more than once...

"I'll ask you to treat me this time too, Brother Roman, I'll invite you back next time."

"You've said this sentence no less than ten times."

That's right, every time I see Oshino baa here, the only thing Roman does is to help pay.

Roman once asked the boss if Oshino Baaba came to visit often, and got the answer "That sloppy man rarely comes, but you will show up every time he comes", which made Roman once doubt whether Oshino Baaa has mastered it. Roman's whereabouts.

"No, I never knew what Brother Roman was doing."

"Cheat, otherwise, why would you wait for me to show up to pay every time?"

Oshino baa smiled and started talking nonsense.

"How do you say it? When I finished eating, I realized that I didn't bring any money, and then I thought to myself, 'Brother Roman, hurry up and pay the money, or else you will be beaten out'. Then, Brother Roman will be at the end. The critical moment has come."

"Have I become the strange **** of ramen? Also, what's your 'no money'? You don't have any money, do you?"

"It's really unceremonious to say it, Brother Roman, you are too cruel."

Oshino baa didn't appear embarrassed because he was exposed by Roman. Anyway, Roman knew very well that he was a tramp, but every time he helped to pay without hesitation.

However, Roman felt that Oshino baa was used to being beaten verbally.

Oshino baa is Roman's friend. Since they are friends, if there are difficulties in life, it is not impossible to help. And Oshino Baa Baa is also a very conscious person, not the kind of vampire who sticks to his body, and won't be entangled because of his friends.

"I think you should still find a stable job, or at least support yourself."

"Forgive me, I'm used to wandering. There's no difference between a steady job and killing me. Maybe one day I'll feel like I've had enough fun and leave the city."

This is the so-called homeless. No fixed place to live, precarious times, and when I wake up in the morning, I don’t even know if I can eat enough at noon. If I have to say that there are any advantages, it is probably freedom. Homelessness is not a profession, but a state, a state where there is nothing but freedom.

"Life is precious, and love is more expensive. If it is freedom, both can be thrown away." This is a poem written by the Hungarian poet Petofi. The poem clearly points out the poet's relationship between life, love and freedom. He believes that human freedom is more important than life and love.

Roman disagrees with the ideas in the poem, because which one is more important depends on the senses of the person who chooses them. Some people think that life is the most precious, some people think that it is love, and Petofi thinks that it is freedom. If Oshino baa is the same person as Pei Duofei, then he now has life and freedom, maybe he is the winner in life.

Life and freedom may be Oshino Baa's pursuit in life, so this man is really enviable.

"Speaking of which... Oshino seemed surprised when he saw me just now, didn't he expect me to appear?"

When entering the door just now, the first person to greet Roman was the waiter, and then when he was looking for a seat, he heard Oshino baa.

How should it be described? Although Oshino Baa was expecting Roman to appear, there was still a strange surprise when he saw him.

"Did you see something strange?"

"It's not that I saw something strange. Quite the contrary, I almost saw nothing."

"Can't see anything?"

"Ok."

Oshino baa put away a hearty smile on his face, and put his sharp eyes on Roman.

"I knew you had come when I heard the waiter's welcome. But when I looked at the door, I unexpectedly couldn't see you."

- Can't see... me?

Roman turned his head, his eyes easily found the door. There is no cover to the door from this position. As long as someone opens the door, the face of the person who comes in can be clearly seen, so there is no possibility of "invisibility".

At that time, Roman had already come in through the door before being greeted by the waiter, so why couldn't Oshino see him?

"Surprised, right? But I'm also surprised, Brother Roman, don't get me wrong, I'm not surprised that I didn't see you just now, but I'm surprised that you didn't doubt me, Brother Roman, is it really okay to trust a homeless like that? ?"

"Well—Oshino is my friend."

Yes, Oshino baa is Roman's friend. Since we are friends, we should trust each other, right?

"It's a heavy trust, but I don't hate it. Where do I start? When I first looked at the past, my eyes actually saw you, but the brain subconsciously ignored you, just like hypnosis, constantly It made me ignore this person, so although I saw you in my eyes at that time, I didn't pay attention to it. When my brain regained consciousness and got rid of this influence, I could focus on you again. Do you understand?"

Roman nodded, Oshino baa's words were not difficult to understand, probably meant to say: Romani Akiman has a power that people can ignore.

So the question is, what is the force behind it? Or where does this power come from?

As for Roman personally, there are many ways to reduce his presence, or to use [suggestion] and [hypnosis] to make people ignore him in front of him. But he remembered that he had never done such a thing, and he had never used supernatural power in the recent period, so the power that Oshino Baaba said was obviously not initiated by Roman himself, but from the outside world. body.

Oshino baa raised his fingers, a very mysterious look.

"Brother Roman, have you heard of the 'gap monster'?"

It's all calling for red eyeballs. Of course cute girls are better than muscle gays, aren't they?

Chapter 38 Chapter 4 Saturday Melancholy

Saturday is working time.

The place Roman works part-time is the supermarket. The wages on weekends and holidays will be more, but the relative flow of people will also increase.

"A total of 1,300 yuan, thank you for your patronage."

The gap monster is actually a very weak monster. This monster can only survive by hiding in dark places, and disappear when exposed to sunlight or noticed. I don’t know if it’s hiding in another shadow, or just dying, but what is certain is that the gap monster is a kind of monster that is difficult to see, and no one has heard of it since ancient times, so it’s also true. It's called "the monster that doesn't exist". But does this monster even exist? Although weird experts have always had this question, but since there are related legends, it should exist.

The above is the main content of the conversation between Oshino Baaba and Roman yesterday, and it is also the information on the monster that reduced Roman's presence.

"Welcome next time."

Weird is an existence that should not exist in the human world and is contrary to common sense. Gods and monsters, whether they are friendly or unfriendly to people, are probably supernatural powers according to the understanding of ordinary people. Unscientific things are weird.

But weirdness doesn't just happen out of nowhere. Weird and human live in disjoint parallel worlds and generally do not have contact unless humans actively seek out the weird, or a powerful weird breaks the balance between humans and weird. A "weird expert" like Oshino Baaba is a strange profession that lives between the human and the weird, hovering at the border between them.

"The instant noodles are on the left, and you can see it when you walk in."

As mentioned earlier, the contact between weirdness and humans requires one of the parties to take the initiative, but weak monsters like the gap monster cannot break the balance between the weird and human, so the reason why the gap monster will possess Roman is because Driven by the human side.

I don't want to talk, so don't come and talk to me.

I don't know this question, so don't ask me to get up and answer it.

No matter who it is, don't come to me anyway.

Just leave me alone in the background quietly.

- That's it, for various reasons, Roman wanted to try to reduce his sense of existence, reach a consensus with the monsters in the shadows, summoned the weak monsters hidden in the shadows, and successfully possessed Roman.

But weirdness is generally an existence that doesn't understand people's minds. After all, the two species don't talk about it, and the world they live in is different. How can it be possible to understand each other?

For Roman, all it may take is to hide for a moment and a half, but the interstitial monster has been playing its role since it possessed Roman.

I don't want to be discovered, I don't want to be seen, I don't want to be noticed... In a word, since the gap monster stayed with Roman, his sense of existence has been decreasing. This is not a steady state, but is constantly decreasing. Maybe at the beginning, I just didn't want to talk to him, and then I consciously ignored this person, but I gradually forget this person, and even if I see it, I can't remember Roman's name. If you let it go, you may end up turning a blind eye and turning a deaf ear.

Even if you stand in front of your eyes, you will not see it, and if you speak loudly in your ear, it will be filtered out. Blocking the way forward, people walking will subconsciously avoid it, but they have no idea why they are doing it. The disappearance of the sense of existence will be accompanied by the disappearance of people, and one day will become a "non-existent person" alive.

But this process is too long. The gap monster itself is a very weak monster, and it takes about ten or eight years to completely eliminate a person's sense of existence.

It is necessary to remind that the appearance of weirdness is often accompanied by human will, and their actions are also affected by human will. In other words, if Roman wants to regain his sense of existence, as long as he wants to be noticed from the bottom of his heart and enjoy the sight of attracting attention, the weak monsters like the gap monster may be expelled by a powerful will. .

Actually, as long as Roman walks around the school wearing a girls' school uniform, he might be able to kill the interstitial monsters directly.

It's really troublesome.

Roman was not prepared to do anything outrageous, nor did he intend to attract the attention of others in the past. In fact, Oshino baa also gave Roman a spell at the time as a thank you for the invitation, but Roman refused in the end.

Weird does not understand people's hearts, and weirdness does not understand human nature. Therefore, for humans, weirdness is a very arbitrary existence, but why is it not for human beings?

Because I didn't want to be noticed, I summoned the weirdness that had reached consensus, and because I wanted to regain the sense of existence, I killed the weirdness that had reached consensus.

For others, weirdness is both convenient and troublesome, even Oshino Baabaa. But in Roman's view, weirdness is actually no different from humans. Not just weird, but gods, birds, and beasts.

It's not because of the heart of the Virgin, not only because of their different visions, but also because of the influence of their positions.

Romani Archiman is neither human nor weird, not a bird or beast, not a ghost, but a "human figure".

Roman is not worried that the monsters in the gaps can take away his existence. Only Roman himself can completely erase Roman's "existence" in this world.

There are only monsters in the gaps, try again after two thousand years of cultivation.

Roman's working hours start at noon and end at seven o'clock in the evening.

The part-time job was about two kilometers away from the apartment, and because there was nothing to do next, Roman decided to walk back.

Walking step by step near the side of the road, there are not many people on the road, and the quiet on the street is a bit scary.

After passing through the green belt and finally coming to the children's park, Roman decided to rest in the park.

"It's been three years."

It has been almost three years since he came to this world. From being overwhelmed at the beginning, he can now easily face various situations. Three years are enough to make Roman live like an ordinary person. But every once in a while, when alone like this, loneliness and loneliness can make one chill.

No family, no friends. Although I can occasionally chat with my classmates, and I can chat with Oshino Baa, who lives in the dilapidated cram school, the warmth I felt at Ashford Academy is no longer there.

Every time he sees classmates walking together and family members who love each other, Roman, surrounded by loneliness, often doubts whether his existence is necessary.

As a "human type" born for the world, Roman has no "past" and no knowledge of the future. Even standing in the world feels out of tune with the world. Several times he has an urge to return to Akasha, because He finds his existence "meaningless".

No one would care that he was alive, and no one would care that he died, no matter how humble he did, how great he accomplished, even if he was admired or spurned by thousands of people, it was irrelevant to Roman.

Because from the beginning, Roman was "different".

"Really, when did I become a sentimental melancholy teenager?"

"Does Roman-san feel very depressed?"

The book has been officially signed, and then the author Jun's injury has not healed, and he has to run for life again, miserable!

Chapter 39 Chapter 5 Special Care Hey

Standing behind Roman was a seemingly ordinary girl.

With her long hair braided into braids, she wears large-frame glasses, and she doesn't wear obvious makeup like an ordinary girl. She looks like an ordinary village girl.

Of course, it just looks like it.

He behaves well and is serious to the point of terrifying. His academic performance remains high, and he always stands at the top of the school year.
