What's wrong with a novelist opening multiple pseudonyms?

Chapter 45 Chapter 45

There will be many graduations in life.

The end of a period of study, the end of a period of work, the end of a certain stage, as long as it is a stage that can usher in a new beginning, it can be called "graduation".

Graduation will of course have graduation commemorations, or in other words, graduation gifts.

When he graduated from university, the graduation gift that Furuya Rei received was a small booklet that he despised very much.

The booklet contained a short story that he did not recognize, but he still read it word by word. At the end of the novel, there were the professor's sincere blessings to the graduates and two names, one above and one below. The handwriting

on the upper one was slender and neat, and the pen was written carelessly, and the ink was faintly blurred.

The handwriting on the lower one was wild and casual, and it was written with anger, and it filled the paper with its teeth and claws.

Furuya Rei said with disgust, "I don't want to put my name together with that guy again in my life."

And the time these two names were side by side was more than he thought.

On the report card of the police academy, in the form of each announcement of grades, and in the signature of the self-criticism.

The careless handwriting became darker and darker, and the aggressive handwriting

became more and more regular. It was like the careless dizzy side branch in life, and like two mismatched lyrics in a haiku that can be recited for a long time, and after reading it for a long time, you can actually hear a hint of harmony.

Later, when Furuya Rei was searching in the public security database, he entered the name casually, and failed to refresh it several times. Then

he realized that Saotome Tenrei joined the organization with his real name, as if he was missing a thread in his brain. For this reason, the public security naturally erased all traces of him long ago.

He was not on the graduation album of Hosei University, the admission list of the police academy, the form for announcing grades, and even the signature of the self-criticism that they were forced to write when they were young and hot-tempered had a vacant position, leaving only five people.

Furuya Rei felt that things would turn out like this, and there were signs that could be traced long ago.

He left no trace when he was alive, and there would be even less when he died.

Not many people know Saotome Tenrei, so it is normal that the last impression left on people is very one-sided.

The word that is said most often is "traitor". The members who have worked with him sporadically feel more deeply and call him "evil devil". Vermouth once let it slip and sighed "poor little nightingale".

What is shocking is that even these words seem to be shameful. When the eyes of others are inclined, they immediately disappear and melt into the air.
