Disqualification

Sagiri Mountain without Sagi is more silent than before. Tomioka Yoshiyuki is resting his body, Mako is honing his swordsmanship day after day, Rinaki silently chops firewood and gathers hay, and occasionally teaches Mako to practice.

Dazai didn’t leave, he still enjoyed the life of the idle cranes, he brought paper and pen when he came, and occasionally wrote something to send to the town, and then he got the letters from the postman after Xiaozhuang edited and sorted them out .

"Is Mr. Dazai still not going back?" Sometimes Shinko would come over and ask him.

Osamu Dazai laughed and said, "Why did you drive me away after not staying for a few days?"

"Because Mr. Dazai didn't come to mourn Satu at all." She said, "Yiyu's mood is getting worse and worse. He was originally a piece of wood, but now he has become a pool of stagnant water." She said firmly, "It is Mr. Dazai who said What is it?"

"This is an unfounded accusation, Miss." He has always been polite to ladies, whether it is a wild girl in the mountains or a noble lady watching an imperial drama, they will use honorific titles. Mostly women are lovely in his heart.

"You see, I only told the truth, and I also helped you solve the problem by the way."

"It's a good thing that Yiyong is no longer looking for life and death."

Zhenmo pouted secretly: [It's not so much that he doesn't want to die, but that he doesn't even have the urge to die. Yiyong's pupils are so dark, like a pool of stagnant water. ]

"You should worry about yourself, little miss." Dazai said, "You will be going to Fujisan Mountain in half a year at the most. I don't want to hear the news of your death and come to express my condolences."

Zhenmo was not very happy to hear this: "I will survive." She emphasized, "Instead of worrying about me, it is better to care about Yiyong."

"Okay, okay." Dazai said perfunctorily, "If there is a chance."

Makoto was not very satisfied.

"Speaking of which, including Sato, Mr. Rinaki has not produced a qualified swordsman for more than ten years, right?" He stroked his chin, "Don't you think it's strange?"

"What?" Makoto didn't quite understand Dazai's meaning.

"Looking at the probability, this is not normal." He casually took a twig that was burned as firewood to paint a mural on the ground, and Mako squatted beside him. In the past few years, he often gave lectures like this. Dazai, what did he think of? Just teach anything, talk and even dance - when teaching students, he will become more like a lively human being.

"First of all, the level of trainers is different. Unlike trainers born as ordinary swordsmen, Mr. Rinaki used to be a pillar, and you have to go through trials before going to the vine attack mountain. In terms of ability, it is far superior to ordinary players. .”

Shinko asked, "Have you met other members of the Demon Slayer Squad?"

"Of course." Dazai said, "I like night tours."

Zhen Zhu said unwillingly: "You should be careful."

"Let's continue talking." He continued, "I felt something was wrong when you mentioned this before, and what happened to the rabbit made me firm up my guess." Seeing his strategizing, Zhenzhu suddenly remembered something .

[Ms. Dazai, you seem to have made your debut as a detective novelist, right? ]

She was originally an orphan girl in the countryside who didn't know what a detective was, but because of having Dazai as her teacher, she became proficient in Western imported culture. She not only understood the meaning of the word detective, but also dug out the books written by the teacher from old newspapers. Come out and read them one by one.His debut article was regarded as a cult work, about a headless lady who died in a teahouse.

／She lay quietly in a room with six tatami mats. The purple sand teapot imported from the East was uncovered. Curly hot air steamed in the room like silk threads, and a strange fragrance was diffused in the room. It was only after careful smell that it was blood and The aroma of the tea blend.

—— "Lady" /

The three of them read a newspaper together, and the scene of lamenting the development of the case was vividly remembered, and Zhenzhu's mood became a little depressed again.

"Sakusa...what's wrong?" Makoto couldn't keep up with Dazai's thinking, so he could only ask.

Dazai looked at her for a while, half a smile but not a smile, the eyes looked really creepy, she just felt that the other party didn't look at her like a human, but like a paramecium, no, it's not such an insulting sight.

[No, it shouldn't be described that way. ] She racked her brains and finally found the right sentence.

[To put it simply, it is the eyes of the omniscient and omnipotent god looking at all living beings. ]

"Ghosts are also afraid of humans." Dazai spread his hands, "Especially afraid of humans who can cause harm to themselves."

"The same is true for the ghosts on Fuji Attack Mountain. They attack you, but the immature reserve team members are too weak. They can be their dinner. From a psychological point of view, these ghosts are all from the ghost killing team. Those caught by the members are much more afraid of swordsmen than ghosts who have never seen swordsmen before, or ghosts who have the ability to deal with swordsmen."

Makoto didn't interrupt, just listened quietly.

"To put it simply and easily understandable, powerful swordsmen are their psychological shadows. Yoshiyuki mentioned that Satu killed all the ghosts by himself a few days ago, and the remaining ghosts , Even if it is to live longer and protect oneself wisely, I will not attack him."

Zhenmo asked, "What if it's an irrational ghost?"

"Impossible." Dazai said, "An irrational ghost will appear at the very beginning, and at least he has enough patience to keep it until the last day." His smile was fake, and the corners of his mouth leaked sarcasm, "Think with your brain , Miss, the swordsman survived on the mountain for seven days, every day he was more exhausted than the last day, and his strength also declined faster, especially at the moment before the dawn of the last day, he also psychologically believed that he would be able to come out of the mountain alive, so he relaxed his vigilance and ate Saito's ghost is undoubtedly lurking, waiting for the last moment, he is a cunning hunter." He said, "That ghost is going for you, or for Mr. Rinaki behind you."

When he said this, Zhenmo's first reaction was to look around.

"Mr. Rinaki went up the mountain to look for herbs." Dazai narrowed his eyes, "He's not here." As if to prove himself, he added, "I'm not a bad person, I won't take the initiative to stab people's hearts. "

Really looked at him with distrust or distrust in his eyes.

[joke. ]

[You like to stab a knife the most! ]

Mako is very smart, it would be too miserable for Dazai to fail to guess after analyzing this, she thought to herself, what could prove that they came from the Lintaki sect.

"Disaster relief mask." She whispered suddenly, "Yiyong didn't wear a disaster relief mask when he came back!"

……

"My disaster relief mask?" Yoshioka Tomioka recovered from his injuries and was ready to leave for a mission in two days. "It was broken on the first day." He said, "It's not convenient after it's broken." Take it, find a place to bury it."

[really! ]

"Is there a problem?"

Zhenmo shook his head again and again and said, "No."

Giyuu is confused.

……

Mako was crying in the corner, so that no one other than Dazai could see her. She cried quietly, and at the same time, it was heartbreaking.

[Grief to the extreme is silence. ] This sentence suddenly popped up in his mind.

Strange to say, Osamu Dazai doesn't seem to have any faith at first glance, but he just believes in fate. You pay for what you get, and you lose something if you get something.

So he asked the people around him, "Do you regret it?" He said, "Mr. Lin Taki killed ghosts all his life, and he had to retire with all his accomplishments, but the hatred fell on you."

He asked, "Do you regret it? Sato?"

The wind brought the voice of the soul into Dazai's ears: "I'm going to get angry when you say that, Dazai-sensei." He said, "I, we all like Mr. Rinaki the most."

"It's just that I'm not strong enough to be killed, but one day there will be a person who slays the killer ghost and returns to Sawu Mountain." He scolded, "After receiving the education of the master, it is natural to inherit his hatred. The father's debt is repaid, so how can you hate him because of this?"

"We like Mr. Ryodaki best."

"Hmm." Dazai said, "Okay, okay."

Saito said with great anger: "Thank you very much, Teacher Dazai." He said, "Thank you for passing this matter on to Mako, she may survive, she has always been the smartest one among us."

"This." He was saying, "Because you begged me." He touched his chin with his hand, "I am a person who will never refuse other people's entreaties. After all, good people are easy to talk to."

[Recently, for some reason, I suddenly want to be a good person. ]

[Since I dreamed of a young man named Oda Saku, my state of mind has undergone an inexplicable change. Thoughts such as "Be a good person once in a while" and "It's not a big deal to respond to other people's needs" have entered my mind But, why do I think so, why should I be a good person? ]

[I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t remember. ]

[Can you tell me why?Oda work. ]

[Tell me why I want to be a good person. ]

……

The Hiron sword, the uniform of the Demon Slayer Squad, and the Yakuza arrived at Sagiri Mountain on the same day. It just so happened that Osamu Dazai was preparing to leave today.

"Do you have any plans for the future?" Lin Taki asked him, "Are you planning to go back to Tokyo or go to other places."

"Maybe I will go to Kyoto." He said, "There is a lovely lady in Kyoto who sent several letters to my residence in succession, inviting me to visit her." It's not a gentleman to urge me for many days without leaving."

Lin Taki nodded silently, and at the same time took out a sachet from his bosom, made of wisteria flowers.

"Put it away." Lin Taki said, "I have heard that there is a kind of person who is more likely to attract demons. Although you are not thin-blooded, you are not far behind in this regard." The person under the mask sighed, "Don't expect you to be attracted to demons at night." If you don't go out, you can only hope that the sachet will be useful."

The crow brought Yiyong's first mission: "Dongdongnan! Dongdongnan! Many women on Hualiu Street have severed their heads and died. Go and investigate immediately."

Hearing the words "Hanaliu Street", Dazai's smile deepened.

"It's a rare fate." He said, "Let me give you a ride."

"That's not the place for kids to go."

Yoshiyuki Tomioka was even more confused.

……

tokyo prefecture

"Going to Kyoto?" Kanae was startled when she heard Die Ninja's next mission location, "How did you go to such a far place?"

"It seems that there are not enough female team members, so I need to cooperate with the investigation." Butterfly packed up the package and opened the outer door, "I'm leaving, sister."

"I will definitely bring you a souvenir from Kyoto when I come back."
