Broken-up ex-boyfriends come back

Of course Yakai Riho chose to refuse.

After all, she only regretted going out with Chuya Zhongyuan yesterday.

Then the black-haired young man in front of her blinked at her, softened his expression, and looked pitiful.

Yakai Riho, who had long been accustomed to Osamu Dazai pretending to be pitiful, was indifferent, and looked down at the game console again.

then--

"My heart is breaking."

Osamu Dazai immediately held his heart and looked sad.

He said sadly: "Risui, you have changed, you were not like this before."

"Oh, really."

Mihai Riho said perfunctorily without raising her head.

In the past, she really doted on this actor, even if she knew that the other party was performing, she coaxed him very cooperatively.

"Although dying of a broken heart is a very romantic way to die, it is also too painful."

Osamu Dazai glanced at her expression, not only did not restrain himself, but he became more eager to perform.

Everyone in the office watched the black-haired young man shake his forehead twice and slowly fall down on the sofa, his eyes closed, and his hand clutching the clothes on his chest, looking extremely weak as if he was dying.

"You guys, give me enough!"

Because of his partner's fishing, he had to take on double jobs. Kunikida Doppo, who was frantically rushing to report, couldn't bear it and threw the pen on the forehead of the black-haired young man who seemed to be performing a theatrical performance.

"Don't cause trouble to others!"

"Am I bothering Riho?"

Osamu Dazai, who was hit, turned over on the sofa, opened one eye and looked at the girl who looked up.

Yakai Riho sighed, compared to her, she probably disturbed the normal working detective agency.

So 5 minutes later—

"Rio, the coffee made by the boss is really delicious."

Osamu Dazai placed the order in a happy mood and looked at Yakai Riho with a smile on his chin.

The gentlemanly and gentle boss is wearing a pair of thin-rimmed glasses and is standing behind the counter wiping the glass in his hand.

The waitress who came over with coffee smiled.

"In that case, can Mr. Dazai pay back the bills owed before this?"

Although it is not clear who this girl is, Dazai Osamu's mantra of dying for love has already left a deep impression on her.

Could it be that the other party was also deceived by that face?

The waitress smiled and hinted vaguely that it was unreliable for this man to even sign a bill for coffee.

Mihai Riho took a sip of the fragrant coffee, and it tasted really good.

Then he raised his head and said inexplicably to Osamu Dazai who was handing over the wallet, "As expected of you."

It's been like this since before, always keeping the bill on Nakahara Nakaya or directly bringing the other party's card...

etc--

Yakai Riho glanced at the other party's wallet, and asked after a moment of silence: "Is this wallet yours?"

Osamu Dazai blinked and looked at her innocently.

Yakai Riho: "...Don't bully that Kunikida-san all the time."

Not only did he push the work to his partner, but he also took the other party's wallet.

It's a familiar operation.

The Central Plains also came here in the same way.

"So is there something wrong?"

Yakai Riho is not good at chatting, if the other party has nothing to say, she might just keep silent and drink coffee and leave.

"Of course it's a date."

Osamu Dazai took a sip of coffee lazily, and then picked up when he saw that the other party seemed to want to leave——

"How was your date with the little man yesterday?"

Yakai Riho: "..."

Don't act like you caught your girlfriend cheating, can you?

Osamu Dazai looked at her expression for a while and showed a somewhat regretful expression.

"Didn't you take this opportunity to completely reject that slug..."

Then he casually complained.

"Riho is still too soft-hearted."

Hearing these words, Yakai Riho felt that something was wrong, as if the other party had already predicted what would happen and promoted the process single-handedly.

Osamu Dazai seemed to see her thoughts and said, "I didn't do anything."

Just a little reminder.

Then the other party couldn't wait to express his heart.

Easy to understand as always.

Yakai Riho didn't bother much about this kind of thing.

The steam from the coffee curled up, instantly blurring the smile on the face of the dark-haired young man opposite.

The aroma of coffee lingering at the tip of her nose calmed down her restless mood since last night.

"Don't feel burdened."

Osamu Dazai said suddenly.

Those iris eyes lowered slightly, staring at the coffee in the cup, he casually messed up the delicate latte art.

"If you really feel too tired, you can escape for a while."

The black-haired young man in front of him smiled again, and said——

"It's okay, no one will judge you harshly, Riho doesn't have to care so much about other people's thoughts and feelings."

"Although Riho, who is always used to thinking of others, is cute, but you can think of yourself more."

"It doesn't matter if you just say 'I'm troubled, can you stop pestering me'?"

"how is this possible……"

Yakai Riho retorted subconsciously, and then saw the curvature of the opponent's lips slightly widen.

"That's why I'm being overpowered."

Dazai Osamu said what she once said to Nakahara Chuya in this way.

In the past, Yakai Riho always thought that although Chuya Nakahara was a mafia, he paid too much attention to the people he divided into the protection circle, just like the "sheep" back then, so he was always worried that the other party would be bullied I don't know, no, or don't care.

She still thinks so until now.

The orange-haired young man at that time was stunned when he heard it, and then he seemed a little helpless. She couldn't distinguish the expression on his face for a while, but now thinking about it, he was quite similar to Osamu Dazai in front of him.

"Just because I know Riho can't refuse..."

Osamu Dazai's voice was slow and slow, as if blending with the aroma of coffee in the store.

He stared at the girl with her head bowed in front of her, her slender finger bones were tightly clutching the coffee cup, even though she couldn't see her face, she was very clear about her expression and mood.

It has been like this from the beginning.

Pushing aside the layers of barriers that are afraid of contacting the crowd, deep inside is an inferiority complex that she may not even be aware of.

I feel that I don't deserve such heavy and sincere feelings, and I doubt my own value from time to time, and I feel anxious about other people's expectations or feelings, and I always feel that what I give is not equal to what the other party gives.

"It's not an inch."

Yakai Riho still did not raise her head.

"only……"

She didn't know how to say it for a moment, she opened her mouth and suddenly wanted to escape.

want to go back...

I want to go back to my room, just like when I was bullied when I was a child, close the doors and windows, draw the curtains, hide in the small closet, hide in the quiet darkness, as if this way I don’t have to care about, don’t have to face everything outside. She brings a great sense of security.

Dazai sighed almost inaudibly.

He stood up and came to the girl who seemed to have done something wrong. He didn't try to make her look at him, but stretched out his hand and gently released the other's tightly clenched hand, then held her wrist with one hand, and pressed it with the other. He leaned her head against his arms, and from his overlooking angle, he could only see the hair on the top of her head.

"I know."

As if comforting a child, Osamu Dazai patted her head and repeated.

"Rio is a good boy, I know that."

"But it doesn't matter if you act coquettishly and willfully occasionally, so..."

The black-haired young man's voice became brisk: "Don't hesitate to say what you hate, and if you are tired, just follow your heart and hide alone. Although it would be a pity that you can't see Riho, there is nothing you can do about it. After all..."

He lowered his voice: "When a string is stretched for too long, it will break with a 'bang' if you are not careful, then it will be troublesome. I don't want to see Riho become like that."

Yakai Riho was silent for a while and then pushed the other person away. She hadn't forgotten that this was a coffee shop, and her awkward self-esteem wouldn't make her cry.

But even so, she still looked at the boss who was wiping the glasses behind the counter in embarrassment, and then found that the other party was still concentrating on wiping the glasses, as if she hadn't seen or heard anything.

And Osamu Dazai, who was pushed away, also returned to his seat without hesitation, took a sip of his own coffee, and gave the boss a thumbs up with a smile.

"Excellent as always."

The boss with a face full of years raised his head and smiled slightly.

"Thanks for the compliment."

At this time, the waitress came to them with a tray, and placed the delicate dessert in front of Yakai Riho.

"Please use."

Yakai Riho, who didn't order, looked up blankly, and saw a cute smile on the other side.

"This is a gift from the boss."

Then he said quietly: "This man is not worth feeling sorry for him. If you have any difficulties, you can always go upstairs to the detective agency for help."

Yakai Riho felt a little dumbfounded for a moment, and then subtly looked at Osamu Dazai who was obviously misunderstood.

"So even the waiter in the coffee shop knows your true nature?"

Don't even think about knowing what happened.

Osamu Dazai didn't feel any embarrassment, he just dragged his voice and said, "I'm wholehearted towards Riho, it was all the world's fault before."

The reason is exactly the same as when Yahai Riho explained it to her ex-boyfriends.

In short, the world is behind the blame.

After returning to the detective agency, Yakai Riho still wondered whether his performance was too obvious, or Dazai Osamu was too observant.

Then I saw Ranpo Edogawa, who had returned from buying snacks with Atsushi Nakajima, sitting on his seat with his head up, turning a beautiful green marble slightly in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

After noticing her return, he waved to her immediately, showing a big smile, as if all the unhappiness before that had been forgotten.

"Rio, I bought a lot of snacks, and your favorite pudding!"

"Although I don't know what happened, but it's generally understandable." Yosano Akiko patted her on the shoulder when passing by, "Although Mr. Ranpo can't do it, but..."

"But I can still take this guy away without causing you any trouble."

Kunikida Doppo took over the conversation, grabbed Osamu Dazai who also just came back by the collar with one hand, and forcibly dragged him towards the door.

"Let's go, Dazai, I have a commission."

"Hey—it's actually at this time, I finally managed to coax the lady, Kunikida is too good at watching the atmosphere..."

"Shut up! It's obvious that you are the instigator!"

"This is slander..."

The words of the two were separated by the closed office door, and then gradually disappeared with the sound of footsteps.

Yakai Riho glanced at the detective agency subconsciously, and found that even the shy Atsushi Nakajima showed a shy and soft smile after meeting her gaze.

After returning to her seat, she listened to Edogawa Ranpo and herself muttering about how many detours she had to wait in line to buy this pudding, and she suddenly spoke——

"Is it obvious?"

Edogawa Ranpo replied very naturally: "Of course."

"It doesn't mean that there is nothing wrong with a sullen face."

Tanizaki Naomi, who was holding the document, interjected.

Because he grew up in an orphanage, Atsushi Nakajima is very good at observing other people's emotions. He was the first to discover it with Edogawa Ranpo and Dazai Osamu. At this moment, he is also racking his brains to try to comfort: "Mr. Ranpo specially Go out and buy the pudding for you, and eating something you like will make you feel better."

Yakai Riho looked at the beautifully packaged dessert box in front of her, and spoke again after a few seconds——

"Thank you."

It's not to push forward, but to tolerate each other with these same gentle people.
