Among the best-selling books in the world, the sales volume is still the first.

There is a story in the book about the "Wife of Lot". It tells that the city of Sodom is about to be destroyed. God sent two archangels to lead Lot to leave with his wife and children, and told them not to turn back, no matter what happened. Nothing can look back.However, when she finally heard the sound that the town she lived in was about to fall in the catastrophe, the wife of Rhodes looked back and turned into a pillar of salt, which ceased to exist together with the city of Sodom.

God warns us with "Lord's wife": Heed the exhortation and don't look back.

There is a European religious style bungalow in the mixed oak grove to the west.It used to be the host site where European and American military generals met with Japan during the war.But with the passage of time, such buildings have gradually become seriously abandoned buildings due to political, geographical location, and high maintenance costs, and now they have become the base of the supernatural organization mimic.

The address is obtained from the letter sent by mimic.

Different from Oda Sakunosuke's idea, Osamu Dazai just regarded this address as a temporary battlefield for the mimic, but it was enough to attract the mimic leader Gide.In order to prevent Ayanokouji from reporting to Mori Ogai, Osamu Dazai asked Ayanokoji to hand over all the communicators on him, and he could not leave his eyes for half a step.

However, mimic still doesn't know why he didn't show up at the agreed time and place.In other words, when the time was 10 minutes before the appointed time, Osamu Dazai felt that the address was too quiet. The people who sneaked into the house conducted investigations and found that there were traces of being used here, and there were footprints in a hurry when they left.

Since the address was specified in the letter, Osamu Dazai didn't think that Mimic would change his mind midway, but the person was not here, obviously there was an informer among them.

Osamu Dazai looked up at the slightly thinner boy next to him, because after the arson incident, some of his hair was burned off, and now his hair will be shorter and look more sassy, ​​not as gloomy as before.His bangs were pulled to the left, revealing the sharp curve of his side face, and the earring on his right ear, like a drop of blood on white snow.

Although Ayanokouji did not take half a step away from his sight, Osamu Dazai had a strange intuition that this matter was related to Ayanokouji.However, he doesn't have any communication equipment on him, how can he contact other people.With this thought in mind, Osamu Dazai took out Ayanokouji's cell phone again.If he really used something on it, then he must be able to find traces.

"What's the password above?" Osamu Dazai asked directly.

Knowing that Osamu Dazai suspected him, Ayanokōji said directly: "0429."

After Osamu Dazai pressed in the password, the interface inside the phone was very simple. Except for all the software initially set up, there was basically no redundant software. The communication was also very simple, with a clear view, not even email and social platform software.Osamu Dazai suppressed the lingering sense of disobedience in his heart, and asked, "What does 0429 mean?"

"Mr. Chuya's birthday." Ayanokōji said without thinking.

Osamu Dazai paused, tilted his head and asked, "You use other people's birthdays as the password to unlock your phone?"

"However, Akutagawa also uses your birthday 0619 as the password of the mobile phone. Because of this, I also remember your birthday."

"..."

I don't know if Akutagawa was mentioned, but Osamu Dazai felt that Akutagawa's fiery gaze fell on his back from 100 meters away.But Osamu Dazai quickly ignored this feeling.Now is not the time to worry about such trivial matters, there must be something wrong with it.

At this moment, Osamu Dazai received a call from Sakunosuke Oda.

"Odasaku, where are you now?"

"Gide of mimic has changed his address. We are one hour away from the last agreed address. You don't need to come over. There are some things that you don't need to participate in, Dazai." Odasaku's voice was calm and calm Like a windless lake.

Osamu Dazai's voice also dropped: "So you plan to let me die?"

Osamu Dazai stopped his cell phone and decisively began to check the location of this number. While investigating the trend, he said: "Odasaku, no matter what, you have to trust me this time. You must not go. I have called all the top It only takes a little time to fight against Hong Kong gangsters."

"They sent Sakuro's arm to me because they said that I violated the requirements of the invitation letter. If they find out again, they won't pay attention to trust with untrustworthy people." Oda Sakunosuke paused and said , "Sorry, I can't afford to bet, I can't lose another child."

Oda's determination made Osamu Dazai restless.

Because he was sure that Oda Sakunosuke would not survive without any assistance.

"Odasaku, maybe it's strange for me to say such a thing. But—" Dazai Osamu said seriously, "In the future, there must be something worth looking forward to in the future."

As if finding this to be as unconvincing as a politician's big and empty words, Osamu Dazai asked, "Do you know why I joined the mafia? I've been here for more than three years."

"..." There was no sound on the phone, as if he was waiting for Dazai to continue, or he didn't know how to respond.

"Because I was looking forward to finding something. I was thinking, "As long as you get close to people full of blatant violence and death, and people full of instinct and passion, you will be able to further see the essence of human beings." , I might find some reason to live. Osamu Dazai's voice was full of emotional restraint that he didn't want others to notice.

"Dazai...Actually..."

However, at this time, Ayanokōji's voice raised: "Mr. Dazai, the guerrillas directly under the leader are here." Immediately afterwards, the noisy sound of the helicopter engine came from far to near, demanding that "the combat power should be dispersed immediately, and Dazai will be ruled." Brought back to the chief's office" the horns were exposed to the air like hot oil splashed into water.

The combat power that was originally gathered by the silver script became unstable in an instant.

Osamu Dazai's expression became serious instantly, but he didn't show any timidity or panic of shrinking back.

However, the other side of the phone hung up.

Mori Ogai...

"Mr. Dazai, let's go." Akutagawa Ryunosuke shouted quickly, "I'll stop them."

Dazai Osamu didn't say much more, his eyes wandered over the camps that were already on the opposite side of him, and finally landed on Ayanokōji who was still looking at the helicopter in the sky, and stretched out his hand to directly pull his arm out.Ayanokouji, who pretended to be away from his body, sighed inwardly, feeling like an innocent hostage being held by a fleeing prisoner, paused in his footsteps, and followed Dazai Osamu's pace.

Osamu Dazai snatched a car and rushed directly to the address where the phone sent the letter.

Ayanokouji sat in the passenger seat and looked at Osamu Dazai.

Obviously, it's too late now.Time is running out.

Whether Osamu Dazai is putting all his eggs in one basket or fighting a trapped beast is unknown.

Some of the bungalows by the sea have started to catch fire, and everywhere they go are the corpses of Mimi, their faces soaked in pools of blood.

Osamu Dazai quickly found the largest place in the house according to the blood trail and the direction where the corpses fell, and it had been swallowed by fire. As far as the naked eye could see, there were the corpses of the children, the corpses of Mimi Gide, and others. The dead body of Oda Sakunosuke that Osamu Dazai didn't want to see the most.

When Osamu Dazai was about to rush in, Ayanokōji grabbed his hem with his backhand.

"Mr. Dazai."

When Osamu Dazai set his eyes on Ayanokouji's hand, Ayanokouji did not let go of his hand.

“Joseph Conrad once said, ‘I dare not say whether a straw has ever saved a drowning man, but I know that just looking at the straw is enough to end despair. Because the truth is, we are impulsive creatures, not creatures prone to despair".Don't be stupid, it's hard to get out alive now. "

"Ayanokouji-kun, are you sincere?" Dazai Osamu had no extra expression on his face, and looked at Ayanokouji's expressionless face with deep eyes, "You still want to take my intact corpse back to the business, To deal with the leader? If there is no problem, let go of your hands."

Osamu Dazai tried to break free, but Ayanokouji's hands remained motionless like iron tongs.Osamu Dazai sneered and said: "That's right, since you are an undercover agent, it's normal to have some hidden skills."

"If I wanted to hand you over to Chief Mori in the first place, I would have knocked you out before you got in the car, instead of watching you shake off the Mafia and come here to find Mr. Oda. I just think——” Ayanokōji said, looking at Dazai’s cold Tobihito, “—this kind of sacrifice is worthless. Moreover, Mr. Oda has already anticipated the current situation, and he has something for you .”

Ayanokōji turned on the recording software of the phone, and there was Oda Sakunosuke's calm and peaceful self-reporting.

"Dazai, I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry, it's not just that I don't follow your advice as a friend, abandon everything, and throw myself into unreasonable disputes and death; it's also that I realize your hesitation and helpless pleading in the little things I spent with you. When I died, I was just silent, as a bystander; and, as a friend, I couldn't really relieve your pain.

Dazai, I'm sorry, but I don't think there is anything in this world that can fill the void in your heart.No emotion may touch your black hole-like loneliness. "

"I……"

Before this passage was over, it was directly cut off by Osamu Dazai.

Ayanokōji looked at Dazai Osamu suspiciously, but Dazai Osamu raised his head, his gaze seemed to pass through the ceiling.The sound of the arrival of the harbor black mafia outside almost overwhelmed the fire and the crackling sound of burning beams and wooden walls.

"Ayanokōji, you go out, the sooner the better."

Osamu Dazai unbuttoned his coat, and Ayanokōji could see the time bomb wrapped around his waist, and the time was only the last 3 minutes.

"I'm not like everyone said, I can be invincible in everything, and there are times when I can't do it. For example, when I can't become a combat force, I can only use myself as a human bomb. Fits with my suicide aesthetic."

Ayanokōji had no idea that Dazai Osamu was so crazy that he tied the bomb to himself, and he couldn't move his feet at all.

"Ayanokōji, remember the story you told yesterday? The wife of Rhodes, the one who was annihilated with the thousand-year-old city in the end. If you don't want to die, don't look back, just run forward. Tell others that you want to be with me Die together, please come together!"

Osamu Dazai pushed in his direction with a refreshing smile on his face.

Ayanokouji staggered forward.

Ayanokouji felt that he would never understand Dazai.

He stood beyond the flames, watching the flames that seemed to dance.

The scorching wind blows, and sparks splash out of the mansion from time to time.

Starting today, the Hong Kong black cadre Osamu Dazai is dead.

Hundreds of members of Hong Kong gangsters, ranging from cadre-level Ozaki Momiji to bottom-level Hong Kong gangsters, all witnessed this grand cremation that burned endlessly.

While watching the dozens of corpses sorted out in the fire, Hirotsu Yanagi hesitated for a long time at Ayanokouji, and finally touched his stiff shoulder and said, "Ayanokouji-kun, Chief Mori is looking for you."

Ayanokōji was half a beat behind: "When did it happen?"

"It's been a long time, but you don't seem to have heard."

"is it?"

……

Finally, when Ayanokouji was leaving, he looked back at Osamu Dazai, and he made a call, but it wasn't Oda Sakunosuke, nor any other names that Ayanokouji was not familiar with.

Dazai laughed, as if he met a friend on the road, his voice was full of brightness and joy, "Ango, just now you pretended to be Odasaku's voice, wasn't it you? I'm going to die again, you guys live well, besides……"

The moment he heard the voice, Ayanokouji's heart trembled, he didn't know which link was wrong; but the unexpected countdown to the bomb didn't allow him to go back and ask for clarification, or to hear more.

In this heavily surrounded western building, Dazai did not come out of the fire.

In this game, some people sing all the way, some have nothing, some just watch from the sidelines, and some are like Dazai, only they know who wins or loses; there are also people who win, but are inexplicably disappointed.

If I didn't look back, maybe I wouldn't be so confused...

Ayanokōji suppressed the complicated emotions surging in her heart, and followed Hirotsu Yananami's footsteps.
