disqualified hero

"Papa-papa--" Dazai applauded, and his tone was full of hypocritical reverence, "He really deserves to be the third-ranked hero. He is selfless and ruthless. Even his trusted employees will check. If Goliath knows It must be very heartbreaking, my beloved boss doesn't believe in me at all, but he wholeheartedly worships Mr. Hawkes as a guiding light on the road of life."

Hawkes was not provoked at all. During the short time with him, he has already touched the bad side of Dazai's character. He likes to provoke people with bitter sarcasm, most of which are intentional: "I can't help it, I'm a very lazy person , I like to do everything in one step. If you want to rework, it is too troublesome. It is easier and faster to check all the people you care about than to remove all the people you care about from the investigation list."

"Moreover, it's just a simple suspicion. There are quite a few people who have this suspicion. I didn't exclude him because the other heroes and staff were in the office that night, and he was the only one because he was going to the spear of justice. Yue left early, and he didn’t have an alibi for the time, that’s all.”

"As far as I can judge, it is more likely that the enemy is a member of the police department."

Dazai shrugged, as if to say "Okay okay".

Hawkes changed the subject: "The above are all judgments that can be made on the bright side, and I am more concerned about those three hints." He said, "The adulterer, the hypocrite, Pawn of Greed, these three words must be connected."

Dazai said: "Of course, this incident has already been classified as a revenge incident. It would be too shameful if the three of them have no relationship."

"That's the problem," Hawkes said.

"The current investigation results of the police are that the three people are not directly connected, or there is absolutely no intersection at work." He said, "The Happy Prince is a local hero, the dancer is from Kyushu, and the head of the samurai is from Osaka. Yes, the three places are completely irrelevant, and their work has never overlapped."

Dazai said, "Have you checked the travel records?"

"The police statement is that there is nothing unusual," Hawkes said.

According to the police, Osamu Dazai raised his eyebrows slightly. He liked Hawkes' words very much. Facts have proved that in the hero society, Hawkes, like Aizawa Shouta, is already a rare smart person. What I saw was an idiot who couldn't hear human words at all.

For those people, he really felt disgusted at the first glance, and even lost the mind to ridicule them. This is like walking on the road, only seeing the rare wild cats in the bushes, and not paying attention to the small stones at the corner of the street.

"The police——" Dazai dragged his voice, "It's really a rather unreliable statement at present." He said, "If the enemy is in the police station and moves a little, you won't know anything."

Hawks said: "Although I don't think he can do anything, just in case I found another reinforcement to help me check their past."

Osamu Dazai said: "This is not just a problem of the enemy." His wisdom is deeper than that of Hawks, and he sees and thinks a little more at this time.

He straightened up and started to walk out. The two of them had stayed in the alley long enough, and had seen enough of the place where the incident happened. Yu Wen couldn't illuminate the way to the other side, three or two stars stood in the misty blue sky, and the bloodstains and color patches on the ground could no longer be seen clearly.

Hawkes followed behind him and said, "What else did I not notice?" At this moment, he really devoted himself to asking Dazai for advice, hoping that he could use his wisdom beyond the age limit and give himself some hints.

It's a pity that Dazai is the one who will answer when asked?Of course not, he will only store the fragile reality in his chest, and watch other people running for a layer of cellophane covering the reality.

"No, as far as the evidence is concerned, Mr. Hawks has discovered everything that can be discovered. What I am thinking about is just a little bit of personal inference." Dazai said, "Let me make a fool of myself first. Well, wait until Mr. Hawkes's informant passes on the information to you, and you should be able to make further conjectures."

"However, let me give you a little hint, don't trust anyone in the police station."

Hawks folded his arms, he walked as fast as Osamu Dazai, but his steps were very steady, while the person in front was just unwilling to walk properly, he jumped and jumped on the gentle road, when the roadside appeared When walking on low walls or cement pipes, I have to walk on them, stepping cautiously with steps that no model would have, moving forward little by little, and falling off the pipe if I am not careful.

It is very normal for a child to behave like this before the age of eight, but when he grows up, he will look very crazy if he behaves like this. However, it seems that it is not in violation of Dazai Osamu. His whole person is like a collection of contradictions.

Hawks said: "I thought I was enough to be hated by people, until you saw Dazai, you didn't know there were people outside." To be honest, who told Hawkes to have a very bad attitude towards many heroes in the same period, His indifference, his strange public taunting proclamations, earned him a low opinion among his small-minded peers.

And Hawks is also a hero known for his cheap mouth.

Dazai said: "It's too much, Hawks-kun, are you saying that I'm not popular? The truth is the opposite, I'm very popular, whether it's social or literary, girls who like me Super many."

During the quarrel between the two, at the end of the not-so-deep alley, a police car straddled the middle of the road. Egoro Juri, the deputy chief of the police station, was standing under the street lamp smoking a cigarette. The distance was too far, and Osamu Dazai couldn't see his expression clearly. , but can see cigarette butts scattered all over the place.

Hawkes took the initiative and said, "I've been waiting for a long time, Deputy Chief Shuli."

The latter immediately snuffed out the cigarette butt and threw it on the ground, followed by Dashan bent down to clean up the ashes and remaining cigarette butts on the ground, like a hard-working dog: "No, no, no, there is no waiting at all."

"Get in the car, Mr. Hawkes."

……

In the same city, at 6:30pm, Night Eye Office.

Nighteyes sat in front of the computer, clacking and typing on the keyboard.

Tokyo is the city with the highest density of hero offices in Japan. According to statistics, the number of offices in it is the sum of offices in other regions. Even in Osaka, which ranks second in the country, the number of office offices in Tokyo is the same. Far inferior to Tokyo.

To survive in such a highly competitive area, it is not enough to recruit heroes. It is simply impossible for each firm to manage the security of a street or an area, doing things independently and not interfering with each other.

For the above reasons, even Hero Firm has made a series of personalized changes in order to take root in big cities.

In addition to those firms that are known for their strength, heroes began to exert their subjective initiative and develop personalized services.

Disaster heroes, for example, start working with firefighters to help put out fires, as well as heroes who track down lost objects, heroes who repair damage after a battle, heroes who are responsible for holding up shields when enemies are raging, and so on.

One of them is the Night Eye Hero Agency. Their main job is to formulate strategies for large-scale enemy operations. In addition, they will also provide information and service assistance to other heroes during activities.

All in all, their hero office is auxiliary in nature, and there are very few moments of subjective maintenance of law and order, but other hero offices are still willing to cooperate with them. Excellent; secondly, their hero office has very comprehensive information. If you want to check a person, no matter how small a point is in his life and deeds, he will not be missed.

If he didn't have such ability, how could he become an assistant recognized by Oulumite?

Bubble girl pushed open the door of the office. She is full of energy and loves work. Even though she has been working indoors for many years, she always has a happy smile on her face as if she is doing outdoor activities: "Comparison of data, complete."

Nighteyes turned on another computer and clicked on the file uploaded by Bubble Girl.

"The itinerary records of the three of them have been tampered with very cleverly." Bubble girl moved her head forward and explained the part circled in red, "In the itinerary certificate presented by the police, any two of the three of them , In the past five years, they have not appeared in the same city at the same time, and the death incident is the only time they have met."

"However," she used a clever turning point, "what I have investigated is completely different from the evidence presented by the police. The contents of ten years and earlier cannot be traced. From the limited data, it can be seen that almost every Both Spear of Justice and Interlia will go to Tokyo once in the month of July, and their Shinkansen tickets will be on the same day.”

Intelia is the name of the dancing girl.

"In the police data, the Shinkansen schedule they ordered has changed. A little two or three days earlier or a few days later, the time of the two can be perfectly staggered." She said, "The time when the Spear of Justice came to Tokyo Relatively fixed, the frequency is stable at about twice a month, but Interia's office is adjacent to the capital, and it often receives work in the capital. When it is intensive, it will come once every four to five days. won't be found."

Night Eyes rolled his eyes, and the triangular-shaped lenses reflected light under the brightness of the screen: "In other words, their records in the police station have been tampered with."

Bubble Girl said, "Obviously."

Nighteye: "Did you find out what they were doing in Tokyo?"

Bubble Girl: "I don't have a clue yet, and it will take time to investigate."

The man in a suit clasped his hands under his sharp chin. He was deep in thought. The known information was arranged and combined in his mind, and interpreted in various ways. He tried to find clues from it.

[The method of tampering with the itinerary is not unskillful, but there are not many people who have the ability to complete this action. At present, there are two possibilities: 1. The person who tampered with the data is a member of the data department who has access to the information; 2. The person who tampered with the information An official above the cadre level in the police station]

He picked up the mobile phone that was lying flat at hand, and dialed a certain number. The hero's mobile phone was encrypted individually and could not be monitored: "Hey, is this Hawkes? My investigation here has made some progress."

Hawkes' voice was a little distorted under the blessing of the current. He said, "Wait a minute, I'm in the police car now, let me put on my headphones."

police car.

Nighteyes took Hawkes' cue and decided to make a long story short.

"I just need to convey the next words, you just need to listen carefully, and you don't need to make any response." He succinctly repeated what the bubble girl said just now, and then packaged the documents and sent them to the parties.

"To sum up, no one can be trusted in the police station." He said, "The current situation can make two inferences about the person who tampered with information. One, he is the enemy or an accomplice of the enemy, and the other is that he is the victim. accomplice."

"Assuming that the victim did have a shady secret and that the incriminating evidence written in blood is correct, then the second inference is established."

Nighteye switched the playback mode of the mobile phone to hands-free, and flew ten fingers on the computer keyboard: "Speaking of blood book crimes, this kind of behavior reminds me of an enemy who has long since disappeared." He said, "Do you remember I remember the enemy Achilles who suddenly disappeared four years ago."

"Remember." Hawkes said succinctly. He established his own hero agency four years ago. At that time, Achilles' social influence was just at its peak. Countless heroes tried to catch him, but all failed. return.

"Even among the enemies, Achilles is an anomaly." Nighteye said, "Different from Stein, the hero killer who appeared three years ago and has been active to this day, Achilles' purge operation is undoubtedly more thorough and more popular. At that time, his admirers had reached a considerable number, and even gave him the name of the world's first anti-hero as a code name." According to their deduction, Stan Ying was one of Achilles' admirers.

Nighteye's words brought Hawkes back to four years ago, no, it should be more distant seven years ago, he was still sitting in the class of the theory of heroic behavior, drowsy, and the teacher didn't move up and down. The boring voice drilled into his ears, making him want to sleep even more.

"I know that even among you here, many of you agree with Achilles' behavior in your heart." The opening sentence was like a bolt from the blue, waking up Hawks who was dozing off, and the next students, each Restless, some people have a guilty conscience that they have been told, while others are filled with righteous indignation, thinking that the teacher's words have insulted their personality.

"Achilles, this enemy's action mode is different from other enemies. His purpose is very clear, which is to hunt disqualified heroes without any benefits." The teacher said, "But in the scene of his attack, one can always find A letter, which recorded in detail the illegal activities and crimes carried out by the disqualified hero in secret, and after the police intervened in the investigation and verification, it was found that the information was all correct."

Therefore, Achilles is very sought after by ordinary people, and some of them even compare him to anti-virus software, which can remove cancer in the hero system.

"But!" The teacher's eyes swept across the faces of all the young people, "This kind of behavior is absolutely not worth advocating, and it is absolutely wrong."

"As we all know, in our country, as long as you get a hero's license, the applicable period is almost lifelong. As long as you don't violate major regulations, your license will not be revoked."

"And the first article of the major regulations is how to deal with the enemy."

"Heroic activities can cause a certain amount of physical damage to the enemy depending on the situation, but they must not endanger the life of the enemy."

"The reason is simple, and it applies to Achilles as well."

Hawkes could feel his mouth move, and he knew that the words that came out of his throat were exactly the same as those that came from his teacher.

[No matter how noble the reason is, when a person's life is taken, all the brilliance will disappear, leaving only the title of murderer hanging brightly above his head. ]

[If a hero kills someone, he is not a hero, but a criminal. ]

He believes that this is the only sentence he learned in the heroism class that has meaning and the only sentence that will affect his future behavior.

Nighteye's voice was still very calm. Listening to him was no different from listening to a robot. He provided a new way of thinking: "I think the prisoner is most likely an admirer of Achilles."

Hawks couldn't help stretching out his hand and scratching his face: "Even if you say that, I can't pick out people one by one and talk to them about social views."

That's all for the newsletter.

"What what?" Dazai's face moved closer to Hawks' head again, "What are you talking about, Mr. Hawks."

Hawkes moved his butt to the other end of the seat, and he said, "Call me if you have any questions, and talk about it later."

……

"Wang! Long time no see, classmate Dazai Wang!"

The police station in Tokyo is different from the police station in Shizuoka City. It is much wider in terms of scale and architectural layout. The white lights and latex painted walls make it brighter in the dark than in the day.

The familiar kobold greets Dazai, the big golden retriever's head is bit by bit, honest and cute.

"Mr. Miangou, long time no see." Dazai stretched out his hand and shook it a few times.

"Please don't call me Mr. Miangu. It's fine to call me Quanjin." The big golden-haired head said, "If you call me Miangu, I won't be able to tell whether Mr. Dazai is referring to me or my brother."

"Then Mr. Inukane." Dazai said with a smile, "Did Mr. Inukane be seconded to help? Did you find anything?"

Miangou Jin said: "Nothing was found. The enemy was very cautious. There was no smell left on the body. It must have been sprayed with deodorizing spray. Immediately I am going back to Shizuoka."

He even exchanged some pleasantries with Dazai: "Speaking of which, did Dazai-san also come to take the entrance examination? When I came, I saw Lugu-san and Bakugo-san on the road. Did Dazai-san also pass the exam as a hero?"

"No, no, no." Dazai said with a smile, "I passed the exam at the Affiliated Middle School of Dongda University."

Noodle Inukin said: "Really, it is very suitable for Dazai-san, but Eraser might be disappointed. He seems to be looking forward to being Dazai-san's teacher."

"Eh, is that so?" Osamu Dazai said, "I didn't expect Xiaota to love me so much, no, no, no, no, I have to go to Xiaota for a drink after this matter is settled, they all say that they tell the truth after drinking, I really want to see him talking non-stop when he is drunk, it must be very funny, ah, yes, I have to take a family camera with me, I want to take a picture of that picture and take it out to enjoy when I think of it appreciate."

Face dog gold: "Please don't talk about underage drinking with a lot of fanfare in front of the police."

[In a sense, it’s really too miserable, Eraser, Dazai-san is just playing tricks on you, woof]

"Dazai! Dazai!" Hawks shouted from a distance, "Come here quickly, didn't you make a fuss to see the victim's body?"

"Then I'll excuse you first, Mr. Inukane." Dazai turned around and left lightly.

"See you later, Dazai-san."

Aizawa Shouta who is still writing lesson plans in Xiongying: "Ah-"

……

Egoro Juri said: "I never thought that Mr. Dazai would be so young. He is really a young talent." Even the deputy chief of the police station has heard of "In the Name of Love". He first complimented Osamu Dazai, Then he ordered Dashan Qianxing, who was bowing his head behind him, to say in a low voice, "Hurry up, take Mr. Dazai to the forensic doctor."

The voice of scolding was not at all like a subordinate, but like a dog that comes and goes when called.

Dashan bowed his head and said nothing, always like this, the leader scolded him, his colleagues pushed him away, and he did the hardest, most tiring and dirtiest work. Is this the so-called rookie effect in society?After entering the unit, newcomers will always be at the bottom and be enslaved by everyone.

It's too cruel, right?

Dazai looked at Dashan with a smile and said, "Then please, Mr. Dashan."

[What a sad and pitiful person]

He approached Dashan and whispered softly in his ear: "Why, Mr. Dashan, the attitude of Deputy Chief Shuli towards you is completely different from the attitude towards human beings? Even if you have a dog that is not so expensive All domestic dogs should be a little more friendly."

"Can you tell me the reason? Humble Mr. Dashan."

[I am a strange person. According to modern society, I am probably born with a "criminal consciousness". Those illegal, sad, depressing, and tragic incidents attract me from the bottom of my heart. Pounce on them, like moths cheerfully but desperately pounce on flickering candles. If I can smell the dirty bloody smell, which is as precious as oil, even if my wings are burned to black coals, I will Satisfied!

——"Human Matters. Confessions of a Mask"]

……

Hawks originally wanted to go to see the victim's body with Dazai, but unexpectedly, another phone call came in a hurry, and the ground staff girl told him that Goliath had found something, holding a mobile phone, like He rushed out of the Hero Office like crazy, saying "I want to see Mr. Hawkes" and "I want to see Mr. Hawkes".

He could only wait for Goliath at the gate of the police station. Fortunately, he didn't keep Hawks waiting for long. Soon, a figure flying at high speed appeared in the sky, and it was Goliath.

"Mr. Hawks!" He swooped down, his strong and powerful wings set off waves, the waves slapped the ground, and the flying dust was lifted up, "I just checked Shinichi's space again and found something .”

"This place." He swiped a few times on the phone screen between his fingers, and it was fixed on the street view he posted the night before the crime, and then he swiped down the screen and flipped to another photo, "These two places, It's actually together."

The city park is on the left side of the first photo, while the second photo faces a pond.

"The photo he posted was of a small city park nearby, and the pond is one of the scenic spots in the city park. Judging from the last photo, Shinichi didn't wander into the park casually, he was asked out by someone. .” Goliath excitedly pointed to the blurred reflection of the second person in the pond in the photo, “Look!”

Hawks leaned over, but it was a pity that the photo was taken too unrealistically, and he could only see clearly that it was a tall man.

Seeing the man filled with righteous indignation, Hawks said abruptly: "We just got new information." He said, "This incident is very likely to be an imitation case committed by Achilles worshipers. What do you think? , Goliath."

[It is impossible to wear a human mask all the time]

[If you want to get the most information in the shortest amount of time, then pick the person who is unsuspecting and emotional, and ask the question straight to the point. ]

[Then stare into his eyes, stare at his expression, interpret the subtle expressions, Hawks, if you want to be a good enough hero, you must learn all the skills that the old police and torture masters should have. ]

Therefore, he did not let go of the struggle, hesitation, and finally the anger that settled in his eyes that flashed across Goliath's face.

"Achilles?" He growled in a low voice, "How is it possible, imitating Achilles, he is also worthy?"

[Body: Osamu Dazai]
