The four of them were sitting in the dining room at this time.Osamu Dazai and Reisi Munakata sat across from each other, while Ranpo Edogawa and Saruhiko Fushimi sat next to them.

"Give me a sundae, this dessert, and that." Facing the waiter who came over with the menu, Edogawa Ranpo ordered a few things he liked with a happy face, then turned to look at Dazai Ji asked, "Dazai, would you like something to eat?"

It was quite interesting to see Edogawa Ranbo ordering things with great interest, but Osamu Dazai didn't particularly think about the food he was eating now. He crossed his hands, looked at the two people sitting opposite him with a smile, and said: " I'm not very hungry, so ordering a cup of tea is enough, how about you? Munakata-kun, Fushimi-kun."

Munakata Reishi replied with a bright smile similar to his, "A cup of tea is enough for me, Fushimi-kun, how about you?"

Fushimi Saru than ancient: "..."

It's so troublesome, can he pretend that he doesn't know these people and go back first?

Seeing the two smiling and looking at each other, Fushimi Saruhiko felt a bit of a stomachache. He reflected in his heart that he was so careless that he didn't notice Dazai's approach, and replied: "I want to drink."

But among the four of them, two of them ordered tea, one ordered drinks, and only the last one ordered food. Wouldn't the shopkeeper stare at him with a dark face?

Fushimi Saru Hiko thought so, and glanced at the pile that Edogawa Ranbu placed.

He took a subtle look at Edogawa Ranpo who looked expectant.

Well, it looks like they won't be staring at the shopkeeper with death eyes.

When Fushimi Saruhiko was thinking, Osamu Dazai suddenly turned his gaze to him, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, it's really a coincidence, Fushimi-kun, I just thought we haven't seen each other for a long time , I didn't expect you to happen to be nearby."

Is this mocking him for peeking from behind?

Fushimi Saruhiko gave a "tsk", now he can be sure that Dazai Osamu had already noticed when he was approaching.

Now that the fact that he was eavesdropping had been discovered, he didn't bother to hide it. He smiled mockingly, put his hands in his pockets, and said with a bored face: "It's really a coincidence. It's even more coincidental than you meeting the chief in the park."

"Munakata-kun and I only met on a personal matter." Faced with Fushimi Saru Hiko's sharp words, Osamu Dazai seemed not to care at all, his natural and undisguised calm made Fushimi Saru Hiko choke for a moment.

He turned his head away and simply stopped looking at Osamu Dazai.Anyway, he has already realized that it is better not to provoke the other party if there is nothing to do.

Osamu Dazai turned his head happily and looked at Reisi Munakata.

The other party still has that smiling expression, which hasn't changed a bit.

After all, they have all come to the restaurant, and Fushimi Saru Hiko is also nearby, and the two of them are not going to continue chatting about those children.So Munakata Reisi discussed the current situation of Osamu Dazai.

"Although I know Dazai-kun that you will do well no matter where you go, I am still surprised by your current appearance." Munakata Reiji sighed and said: "What happened during this period of time that made you become what you are now? I'm really curious about the appearance."

"Maybe it's because I've been stuffed into the washing machine these past few years, and soaked a whole box of strong bleaching agents for a few years." It can be seen that Munakata Reji has just begun to see his inner thoughts, and Osamu Dazai smiled. made a joke.

Being guessed right, Munakata Reiji and Fushimi Saru Biko both had subtle expressions.

In fact, Fushimi Saru Hiko is still thinking about the possibility of this method... No, no, no, no matter what, it's impossible, don't think about it anymore.

Fushimi Saruhiko covered his head, and recalled the picture in his mind - stuffing the Q version of Osamu Dazai into the washing machine, then pouring in the powerful bleach that can fill the washing machine, and then starting the washing machine to start spinning - - shoot away.

"It always feels like you're thinking about some very rude things." Although Fushimi Saruhiko didn't say anything, Osamu Dazai still accurately sensed something from his dead-eyed expression, and said with a laugh.

The guilty Fushimi Saru Hiko continued to turn his head away, pretending that he was a transparent person who did not exist.

Reiji Munakata laughed.

"But you haven't heard anything about it in the past few years since you disappeared." Munakata Reiji said, the corners of his mouth curled up when he closed his eyes, and said, "As far as I know, Anna Kushina of Akagumi was very anxious for a while. , probably because of you."

Osamu Dazai blinked, but said nothing.

Munakata Reji glanced at him, laughed, and continued: "But she became calm again later, maybe because of the child's special ability. But you haven't seen Kushina Anna for a long time, although I don't really want to talk to the red group, but if it's that kid, don't you want to meet him?"

"At the moment, I don't have the idea of ​​going to meet people from the past." Osamu Dazai said so, smiled and thanked the waiter who brought the tea, and took the tea to drink when the other party blushed a little.

After taking a few sips, he put the teacup on the table again, and the fragrant and astringent tea slid down his throat, feeling too warm.

Next to him, Ranpo Edogawa was happily eating a sundae.

"Is that so..." Munakata Reishi also took a sip of tea, and said, "Since you are not going to meet with me, I have no reason to force you."

The smile on Dazai Osamu's face did not change at all.

Munakata Reiji looked at him, and then said as if he was just saying it casually: "Speaking of which, Kushina Anna is actually only a few years younger than you."

Hearing what he said, Osamu Dazai paused for a moment, as if he had thought of something.

Munakata Reji lowered his eyes and said in a somewhat complicated voice: "But she still looks like a little girl, and she hasn't grown up from before to now. I checked the information, probably because the previous experiment gave Kushina Anna It may be a heavy burden on her body, or it may be due to other reasons, in short, she still looks like a little girl now."

"Because of this, coupled with her special status and various factors, the people in the red group did not send her to school, but invited a private teacher back."

Osamu Dazai frowned and said, "She will never grow up?"

"Perhaps." Munakata Reiji said, with a rare unhappy expression, probably because he thought of the culprit who caused all the pain of Anna Kushina and the pile of things left behind by the death of the former King Ao, he pushed his glasses covertly, and said : "She may grow up, she may never grow up, and she will always be the little girl she is now."

"People in the Akagumi have been looking for a way to make Kushina Anna grow up normally for the past few years, but unfortunately, they don't seem to find anything." Saying this, Munakata Reiji took a look and planned to treat himself as a transparent Human Fushimi monkey than ancient.

For the past few years, Fushimi Saruhiko, who has been helping Kushina find a way in private, turned his head away.

However, his subconscious action made Fushimi Saruhiko see something extraordinary.

Fushimi Saru than ancient: "..."

He stretched out his hand and patted the table, suppressing his voice, and shouted in a low voice: "Hello."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Reji Munakata and Osamu Dazai looked over suspiciously, and Ranpo Edogawa was still eating his own food.

Fushimi Saruhiko showed a tangled expression on his face, which was filled with "so troublesome, so troublesome" and some subtle complex emotions. He subconsciously tapped his fingers on the table a few times, and said a little anxiously: "Outside."

His eyes glanced vaguely.

Osamu Dazai blinked and looked outside - then he saw a girl like a doll standing outside the window.

The silver-haired girl still looks like the little girl in her memory to this day. Her long silver hair is draped behind her back with a sense of fantasy. She is wearing a little red gothic dress.There was no expression on that lovely face, a pair of jewel-like red eyes stared straight at this side, the whole person was like a creature that would only appear in a fairy tale world.

Although it looks very cute and dreamy from the outside, the other party's eyes full of resentment and expressionless face, plus standing quietly outside the window like a ghost, is indeed a bit like a scene in a horror movie.

Dazai Osamu: "..."

Munakata Reishi: "..."

Fushimi Saruhiko covered his face, and Edogawa Ranpo looked over with interest, "humph", and said casually, "She seems to have sensed that Dazai is nearby, and ran over in a hurry."

Having said that, he bit the strawberry in the sundae, and said contentedly and comfortably: "Although you didn't intend to find people from the past on purpose, they came to find you on purpose."

Taking the spoon out of his mouth, Edogawa Ranbu's green eyes were full of smiles, he stared at Osamu Dazai who was rarely choked, and said: "I came here on purpose, it seems that I can't do it like before. When you were with Kunikida, you avoided the port mafia."

"Mr. Ranpo has already guessed the current scene." Osamu Dazai said helplessly.

"Of course this kind of thing can't trouble a famous detective like me." Edogawa Ranpo said a little proudly, and then raised his eyebrows and said: "Although that's the case, you don't resist meeting them, right?"

"That's right."

Osamu Dazai sighed and exchanged glances with Reiji Munakata.He looked at Fushimi Saru Hiko, who was obviously very concerned and anxious, and finally got up and walked outside the door.

The moment he opened the door and stepped outside, Anna Kushina raised her head and stared at him with those red eyes.

"Anna?" Osamu Dazai walked to the side of the silver-haired girl and called softly.

Kushina Anna continued to stare at him expressionlessly.

Although she didn't speak, Osamu Dazai always felt that she was angry.

Probably because I haven't contacted her in the past few years.Osamu Dazai thought so, squatted down, and looked straight at Kushina Anna.

Because she has never grown up, Anna Kushina is still eleven or twelve years old, she looks cute and weak, but Osamu Dazai knows that there is a gentle and mature heart under the skin of this little girl.

Osamu Dazai blinked and asked with a smile, "Do you want to go in together?"

Kushina Anna was silent for a while, then grabbed Osamu Dazai tightly and nodded.

Osamu Dazai laughed and said, "Let's go."

He took Anna Kushina by the hand, took her into the restaurant together, and then let Anna Kushina sit beside him——beside Edogawa Ranpo.

Edogawa Ranpo; "..."

He stared at the doll-like little girl in front of him, thought for a while, then pushed a plate of dessert over, and asked, "Do you want to eat?"

Osamu Dazai looked at the appearance of these two "children" who were actually adults in age getting along in harmony, and for some reason, his mood was a little delicate.
