Mori Ogai has lived for so many years, but he has never thought about whether he will go to hell or go to heaven in the future, because he is an atheist himself and has never believed in the existence of gods in this world, even though he does not look like a technological person at all.
Super powers.
In his later years, he still had time to think about what he would become in his next life, and when he recalled what he had done when he was young, he still had no regrets.
After all, everything he did was for Yokohama. He absorbed a lot of things for Yokohama and dedicated what he had. In the end, all he got in exchange was the prosperity and development of Yokohama, but this was enough.
Before he died, he was lying in the intensive care unit. Only a few people came to see him, and his former disciple Dazai Osamu also came, which was somewhat unexpected.
He thought he would only hate himself and never come to see him in his life.
He sent away his former subordinates and sent away the apprentices he had brought out. Before he died, he thought about it. The person who stayed with him the longest after he came to the intensive care unit was actually his junior brother Kano.
Qiu Yi.
More than 30 years have passed, and Kano Qiuichi still looks the same as he remembers. The 50-year-old junior brother looks like he is only 30 years old at most, the kind who would be ogled by little girls whenever he walks on the street.
"You don't look like a 50-year-old person at all." When Mori Ogai last saw Qiuichi, he could hardly open his eyes and his breathing was very weak. Even when he spoke, he had to get closer to hear him.
.
"Maybe it's because I have the nourishment of love." Kano Qiuichi joked, and his lover Gui Deng came with him.

Ghost Lantern is also a legend.
When the two of them got married, everyone thought it was Kano Qiuichi who was hugging Kano Qiuichi's lap. They even thought it might be Qiuichi's power and money from his book business that made them choose to be with him.
This was also the first reaction Mori Ogai had when he learned from someone else that the two were getting married.
The relationship between him and Kano Akichi is both enemies and friends, but in general, the friendship between fellow apprentices is superior. He has also watched his little junior brother grow up, and for this obedient, well-behaved and sensible child
Also like it very much.
It was impossible to say that he didn't care. He never expected that young master Qiu Yi would choose to get married at the age of 20, and he would also be a strange man who appeared out of nowhere.
Before seeing the ghost lantern, Mori Ogai thought that the other person was doing it for his junior brother's money and power, or maybe for his junior brother's beauty.
However, after meeting the other party, Mori Ogai knew that all his guesses were wrong.
This man is not as indifferent as he seems on the surface. It is not that he is indifferent on the surface, but an intuition that he doesn't care about anything and doesn't take it seriously.
This is a man with extraordinary power.
This aura about him is a temperament that can only be possessed by people who have been immersed in power all year round. Not to mention it is based on Kano Qiuichi's power. If you put it another way, some people would believe it.
The moment he saw the ghost lamp, Mori Ogai's thoughts changed from how to make this man treat his junior brother better to how to prevent his junior brother from suffering in the hands of this man.
He is very difficult to deal with at first glance. If he wants to cheat in the future, the younger brother may not be able to do it better than him.
But from the perspective of the two people getting along later, the relationship between the two people is actually equal, and they will seek each other's opinions.
The man Gui Deng is also very kind to his junior brother, to the extent that he will fully satisfy him as long as his demands are not excessive.
They have known each other for more than 30 years, and Mori Ogai has never seen a scene where the ghost lamp denies Kano Qiuichi's words. It has always been Kano Qiuichi's decision.
It's really rare for that man.
It was also at that time that Mori Ogai let go of his wariness towards the man named Ghost Light and sincerely blessed the two of them.
"I will only be alone when the time comes, so please don't provoke me in this regard." Mori Ogai said with a bitter smile.
He has dedicated his whole life to the city of Yokohama, and has never found anyone to live with him. Until now, when he is about to die, he is alone. He himself does not think there is anything wrong with this, he just eats
I felt a little overwhelmed when eating dog food.
"You two still have a long way to go in the future, so you don't need to worry about me. If we are destined, we can meet again in the next life."
"Then we may not have any fate." Kano Qiuichi blinked, "When you go there, remember to wait for us outside, we will go to find you soon."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You two are still very young, how could you die so early." Mori Ogai thought Qiuichi was saying that the two of them would die soon, so he quickly scolded him, "
I am really old, how can I talk so much normally."
The tone of his speech today was wrong. It was completely different from his usual tone. He was also in much better spirits than before. Normally, he would have been in a coma.
Kano Qiuichi probably understood.
This is a flashback before death. It won't be long before they meet again in hell. What he said was not a joke, it was a fact...
The human body is indeed fragile...
In his prime, he could travel between the world and hell a little more frequently. When he reached the age of 40, when his body began to weaken, he began to restrain himself from running back and forth.
Therefore, after Mori Ogai went to hell, he most likely saw only ghost lanterns.
Mori Ogai has done a lot of bad things in his life. It is impossible for him to be reincarnated in a short period of time. It is enough to wait until he dies and then reminisce about the past together.
Perhaps because he expected something, Mori Ogai never stopped talking, as if he would never be able to speak again if he stopped. His babbled appearance was completely different from his usual behavior.
Qiuichi knew that he would see Mori Ogai again in Hell soon, so there was no sadness about leaving now. This made Mori Ogai a little confused, and even began to doubt whether Kano Qiuichi felt sad for his death.
Mori Ogai finally stopped talking.
"You two... give me some reaction at least."
Kano Qiuichi didn't react at all, let alone Kito. Kito was very busy with work during this period, so he took time out to see Mori Ogai because he already valued Mori Ogai.
Not only does he have to deal with the work of hell, but he is also responsible for the work of the Special Agents Division. He is split in half and is so busy all day long that his feet are hitting the back of his head. He has no time to feel sad.
Mori Ogai felt very angry, but he didn't have the strength to jump up and hit the two people. He could only lie on the bed and gasp: "You guy..."
"Forget it." Mori Ogai, who had some energy just now, gradually lost that vitality and lay on the bed, languidly. His voice became thinner and thinner when he spoke. You need to get close to him and listen carefully.
Kano Qiuichi leaned over, and he was lucky enough to hear Mori Ogai's last words before his death.
[Remember to burn Alice’s little skirt to him too.]
Kano Akichi:......
Ghost Deng had already seen the figure of Dujini who came to pick them up. The two of them said hello, and Dujini walked in.
"Good afternoon." Tajini also greeted Kano Qiuichi, "He will die in less than 10 minutes, so I came to pick him up in advance."
"Are there only 10 minutes left?" Kano Qiuichi sighed.
I didn't expect time to fly by so quickly.
"For gods, hundreds of years are just the blink of an eye." Dujini didn't care about this.
"Well, there is no way. I have been in contact with humans a lot, and I was also a human before." Kano Qiuyi wanted to know what will happen after he dies. The funeral will probably be deserted. After all, most of the people he knows are dead.
.
He felt that after his death, he would not feel sad for himself, and might even give himself a welcome party to welcome his death.
It is really possible for those guys in hell to happen!
Time passed minute by minute, and 10 minutes passed very quickly. Mori Ogai slowly noticed the loss of his life force. Finally he opened his eyes and reached out to hold Qiu Yi's hand on the side of the hospital bed.
"Yokohama will be handed over to you from now on. This is our hard work."
"I will work hard." Qiu Yi patted his hand with his backhand, "Just leave this place to me. You can go with peace of mind."
After hearing Qiuichi's words, Mori Ogai wanted to wake up and beat him up again. However, Mori Ogai felt that his soul gradually became lighter, floated up from the bed, and left his body.
He could see his body lying on the bed, and the coquettish-looking woman standing next to him. Oni Deng and Kano Qiuichi were lowering their heads and talking. After seeing his death, there was no sadness at all.
, and even laughed.
Sen Ou's teeth were itching with anger.
Dujini waved him over, "You are already dead, let me take you to hell."
So is there really a hell after death?
Mori Ogai didn't expect that.
"Shall we leave now...?"
"Of course, our time is very precious, don't waste it any more." Dujini patted Qiu Yi and Gui Deng on the shoulders, "This person is dead, I will take him back. Don't worry, I
I won't embarrass him." Dujini looked at the faces of the two people and didn't embarrass him.
"Gui Deng, remember to pick her up when you go back in the afternoon. By the way, there is also Qiu Yi. Yuan Yi asked me to tell you that his mother seems to have found a second love. I hope you can attend their wedding."
"Wedding? Flash wedding?" He had never heard that Mrs. Tu Tu had anyone she liked.
"I heard that we fell in love at first sight at a blind date party and decided to get married right then."
Isn’t this person here to pick her up? Why can Kano Qiuichi and Oni Deng, two people who are still alive, talk to her?
Obviously they are friends who have known each other before, or have known each other for a long time.
Mori Ogai pointed at several people with trembling hands. "Are you two already dead? When did you die? Have I been dating dead people?"
"Of course we're not dead, we're still alive and well." Qiu Yi didn't shy away from it. Now that he had discovered it, he simply didn't hide it anymore.
"As you can see, it's a colleague relationship."
Dujini nodded.
Mori Ogai had a headache and couldn't understand the current situation.
He Mori Ogai used to be a man who was very good at strategizing, but now he was shocked by this fact and was speechless.
"Can your supernatural power still communicate with death?"
"...Almost?" Kano Qiuichi was not very sure, "But my current ability is no longer a supernatural ability. You will understand after a while."
"There is not enough time, you should go to hell." Kano Qiuyi wanted to explain, but Tajini gestured with time, and Kano Qiuichi gave up the explanation.
"You can find out the truth after you go to hell. Teacher and the others are working for me in hell now."
"...Natsume-sensei?"
Kano Qiu nodded.
Mori Ogai was in a trance, and was taken back to hell by Tajini's wrist.
After a series of preparatory work, he finally came to the Yama Temple to face trial.
He himself couldn't even remember how many people he had killed. He expected to be judged and punished in hell.
Then he saw his younger brother’s lover, Gui Leng.
As an assistant to King Yama, he appeared in front of him...
The ghost at work is very difficult to deal with, and the selfless Mori Ogai also knows that, and he also knows that it is not suitable for the two of them to reminisce about the past in this situation.
Mori Ogai was also very sensible during the trial. He did not lie or deny his past crimes, but admitted it very frankly, making today's trial very smooth.
After the trial, he waited until after get off work in the evening before he saw the ghost lantern.
"You should know what you did when you were still alive. The sentence you were sentenced today is in accordance with the law, and I can't change it. But you can be lucky that there are people you know who will be punished with you.
I will take you there directly when the time comes, and you don’t have to feel alone. Your teacher has stayed in hell, and you can live with him after your sentence is over."
Gui Deng paused: "Of course, you can choose to reincarnate."
It is impossible to reincarnate, you can only work for him like this.
Gui Deng has no intention of letting them go. There is a huge shortage of people in hell right now. There are very few souls of people with high IQs, high education, and previous work as managers. They are hard to come by.
"Is that so..." Mori Ogai pondered for a moment.
At this time, Mori Ogai didn't know what was waiting for him. He was sent directly to the waiting hell, and finally met his old acquaintance who was tortured with him.
Yukichi Fukuzawa left this beautiful world before him last year.
Since there is heaven and hell in this world, Fukuzawa Yukichi, who once worked as a bodyguard and killed many people, must also be in hell, but the two people will meet here... Is it fate or evil?
"Good evening, it seems we have a very close bond."
Fukuzawa Yukichi glanced at him and turned his head away, ignoring Mori Ogai.
He wasn't angry either. He turned around and saw two other old acquaintances.
Gide, the previous leader and Mimic leader who was directly killed by him decades ago
Mori Ogai:?
Hell, is it so small?
He can understand the leader, after all, he is Japanese, but remember he is a foreigner, why is he in the hell of Japan?
"It's just stipulated in the regulations on the residence of foreign souls. He killed many people in Japan, so he must first receive the punishment he deserves in Japan, and then return to the hell of his country and continue to accept the trial there." Kano Akiichi
He explained to Mori Ogai, "After all, hell is also advancing with the times, and it cannot fall behind foreign countries."
Qiu Yi is not dead yet. Today is his routine day to come to hell to deal with matters. It happens that most of the people he knows have died, so he comes back to see his friends.
"It's a coincidence that I came back at the same time. You haven't officially started serving your sentence yet. Let me take you to see the country I conquered." Kano Qiuichi took Mori Ogai, who had regained his youthful form, through the layers of portals.
When we arrived at the lowest level of hell, the hot Abi Hell was filled with hot air, and we could vaguely see the walking jailers and souls.
This scene is like the scene of hell depicted in Ukiyo-e, and the wailing sound from the air constantly stimulates Mori Ogai's senses.
"Where is this?"
"This is Abi Hell, the place I am responsible for." Kano Qiuichi raised his finger and pointed to the execution ground in front of him, "You should be lucky that you didn't do too many bad things, otherwise you would have fallen directly into my hands."
Mori Ogai:?
"When I am in this world, I will remember to burn more paper money for you and give you more tributes, so that you can reduce your sentence and get out of your sentence as soon as possible to work for us."
Mori Ogai fell silent.
"...Have you already planned it?"
"You can't say that. Those who are capable work harder, and the wages of jailers are also very good. You can consider it. If you really don't want to, reincarnation is also possible."
It would be best if he could stay and work for him. If he really wanted to be reincarnated, he would not stop him. After all, it was a matter of personal will, and it was not easy for them to interfere.
Fukuzawa Yukichi does not plan to continue working in hell after his sentence is over, but plans to reincarnate and start his life again. As for Mori Ogai, it is different. His character is fundamentally different from Fukuzawa Yukichi.
Between becoming a jailer in hell, there is a 90% chance that he will choose to be a jailer in hell.
"You've obviously already planned it."
"Because I don't think you will choose to be reincarnated." Kano Qiuichi took Mori Ogai around the Abi Hell. The Abi Hell is very big, and there are many very dangerous creatures imprisoned in it. Qiuichi took him to see it.
Many creatures that only lived in the storybook even saw Ushiwakamaru who came to patrol on the way.
Mori Ogai:……
"Quite interesting."
"For me, hell is a place that is very suitable for retirement as long as you don't make mistakes. Hell is very short of people now. If you can come, your promotion speed should be very fast."
"I have more than 500 years left in my sentence." Hearing Mori Ogai's words, Kano Qiuichi took out a calculator and clicked it, "According to the rules, if I keep giving you tribute every year,
Your sentence should be from 500 to 100 years. Originally, if I spoke, you could be exempted from the sentence. However, doing so can easily be said to be taking advantage of one's power, and it will not be good for Guideng's prestige, so it cannot be done at all.
Exempted.”
He is a god now. As long as he tells the higher ups that this person is the one he wants to protect, they will not say a word to Mori Ogai.
Mori Ogai's three views are constantly being destroyed and reshaped: "Who are you, that you can do this?"
He actually had a guess in his mind, but he wasn't sure because this possibility... was really unlikely.
It can't be God... or something like that.
Kano Qiuichi stuffed the calculator back into his sleeve and said very calmly: "It's a god."
