Chapter 1 - Shinigami and Murder Victims (Part 1)

"Don't jump?"

A sudden question. Turning around, looking away from the crowd below.

About three meters away. A fake-looking girl stood in front of the water tower.

Dark brown bobbed hair flowed in the May breeze. Illuminated by the slanting sun, her dark blue eyes shone mysteriously.

Round pierced earrings radiated jade green light.

Clear facial features. Combined with her height of about 170cm, it gave the impression of a model.

Wearing a beige coat with black jeans. On her feet are pale purple high heels.

She looked beautiful. But it also contributed to her deception.

If we were to use an analogy, it would be similar to the names "Mensetsu Taro" and "Eiken Hanako" written on the sample documents. She had a mysterious power that made her think, "That kind of person doesn't exist," at a glance, even though she was right in front of her.

"Who?"

"Um, Shinigami?"

TL/N: Shinigami = Grim Reaper, God of Killing, God of Death, etc.

When asked, the girl gave a charming smile.

The answer was not surprising. It did not matter who was killed. As long as the conditions were met, the other party could become a Shinigami.

For now, just accept the attitude and ask. "Even Shinigami get married."

With that, she pointed at Shinigami Hanako's hand. There was a silver ring on her left ring finger.

After a moment of hesitation, Hanako said bitterly. 

"This, a decoration. "

"Fighting with a man." 

"Something like that."

A strained smile. At this point, I was finally convinced that she was indeed a real person.

With a bitter grin, Hanako walked beside me and we seemed to be looking down from the roof of an abandoned building.

There was no railing or fence around it. The reason is that this place is not meant for the general public. That's how it looked. A few years ago, the management company explained it that way.

Well, it's not like I'm going to jump off the roof. "Are you going to jump?" I looked at Hanako.

"Observe. Even though we promised to get married." 

"Are you going to catch up?"

"No. Not yet."

That's the opposite of very bad.

They were about fifty centimeters away from each other. Within arm's reach was Shinigami. The strange person who called himself Shinigami was there.

"Since it's still there, I have a lot of work to do."

 "...... Aren't you here to kill me?"

 "If I say yes?"

Hanako turned to me with a questioning look. I was in the middle of a joke.

The look in her eyes was one of amusement, making it impossible for me to look away, and I clutched my neck tightly.

Hanako asked more questions.

 "Do you want me to kill you?" 

"No, thank you."

"Hmm."

Hanako replied indifferently and looked down. Hanako unintentionally did the same.

A number of figures passed by.

Some of the Laputa royal family looked at the fleeing people and said, 'Humans are like trash,' but I argued, 'Trash is like humans.

TL/N: Laputa is the movie kingdom in the sky adapted by Studio Ghibli. I don't know of any other creatures that are as human-like as trash. 

"Scared?"

Hanako asked me as I looked at the crowd of people who were not trash.

I answered as calmly as I could. "No."

"Really?"

"I don't want to die."

"Ha-ha-ha! You're in a place like that, even with a face like that!"

When I replied with a flat face, I was laughed at. It was probably the first time in my life that I made people laugh that much. It's not as if the face has anything to do with it.

When my composure returned, I told her my true feelings.

"I want to be killed by someone who loves me."

For a moment, the child's expression disappeared.

 "Funny."

Don't laugh.

I inhaled and looked up. The girl hadn't fallen yet. I was captured by the Shinigami. What a bad day.

It's like taking a child lying on a futon and making Hanako stand on the futon, right? As I was dreaming,

"Shall I grant your wish?"

Without a word, she laughed. 

"Do you love me and want to kill me?"

"Ahaha! That's impossible!"

Hugging her stomach, Hanako laughed again. Her face turned red with embarrassment.

I asked in frustration.

"So how are you going to grant my wish?"

 "Girls, I'll introduce you."

"I refuse."

I turned and walked away.

I had hoped that he was the kind of person who would come to a place like this, but it was a waste of time. This guy was mocking my desires. If I thought that way, I could understand his series of frivolous gestures.

"A woman who can fulfill your wishes."

When I heard the voice behind me, I stopped. I should have ignored it. But I couldn't help it.

It might sound embarrassing, but it was my dream.

A dream that I want to make come true, no matter what. I can't just stand by and let people mock me like this.

"Don't say unnatural things."

When I turned to look at her, Hanako was already standing in front of me.

She looked into my pale eyes. Her dark blue eyes shone faintly in the dim sunlight.

"You understand, right? Even if you live like this, your wishes will never come true. You will die unsatisfied."

"......"

It's a wish.

It's a dream I've wanted since childhood, but I still don't know how to make it come true. If I talk about such dreams to the people around me, I'll be sent to the appropriate institution. So I can only talk to the same crazy people.

"If that's the case, shouldn't you listen to my advice?"

What a strange suggestion from a crazy person. I was thinking with a crazy mind.

If you think about it with common sense, it was just a strange dream.

It's worth a try. Maybe.

"I relaxed with you to pass the time. Thank you."

"You thank me. I will be your goddess of love."

 After reluctantly agreeing, Hanako puffed out her cheeks.

 "Why have you gone so far? What is your goal?"

"To kill you."

"Do you like me?"

"Ahaha!"

Laughed for the third time. I quickly explained.

"No, I didn't mean it in a weird way."

"I know. But you sound stupid."

You're the stupid one. I spat in thought.
