As mentioned before, Orihara Rin is also an intelligence agent in Ikebukuro.

When I was still working under Osamu Dazai, I had a chance encounter with him. Although he made me wait for him at the train station for most of the night, I didn't mean to blame him at all.I think it's an interesting experience.

Any experience and experience, good or bad, I find interesting.

Because normal people will go through so many things.

In fact, when I first met him, I felt that he was a bit like Dazai Osamu. His behavior was full of cynicalism, and his exaggerated expression always hid some emotions that he didn't want to reveal to outsiders.

The Swiss psychologist Jung once proposed the concept of "persona", which refers to "personal adaptation, or the use of the way one thinks is appropriate to deal with the world system".I can think that Dazai Osamu and Orihara Rin also chose the same persona to treat the world, observe the world, experience the world, and protect themselves.Because they have seen too many things through.

But these have nothing to do with me.

I spooned a spoonful of caramel macchiato froth and mixed it with coffee mixed with cocoa powder.

Edogawa said that there are three kinds of experiences when drinking this drink.The first is to drink the rich and sweet milk froth on the drink, the second is to drink it together with milk froth and sweet coffee, you can feel the foam and the aroma of the drink at the same time; the third is to drink the silky smooth coffee directly drinks.

After I drank it, I felt that Edogawa Ranpo is a magical person, gluttonous, large in appetite, and able to eat again.Before I left, I gave him [-] yen to buy lunch at school. I don't know how it will be at noon.

……

Orihara Lin was still looking at me, so I changed the topic first: "Mr. Orihara, long time no see. When I came to Ikebukuro a few days ago, I was thinking of contacting you, but you didn't reply me. I'm still thinking about it. How to find you is more convenient."

"I've been a little busy lately..." Orihara Rin also breathed more air in than outed it at the moment, resisting the discomfort in his body.

"Then we can just talk now."

I am not particularly interested in why Orihara Rinya also appeared in Yagiri Seiji's room.Because it has something to do with his personality. He is an intelligence agent. Recently, Yagiri Pharmaceuticals is going to be acquired. It is understandable to search for useful information from this angle.

"I was lucky enough to witness the appearance of the "Headless Horseman" yesterday, can you tell me a little bit about it?I'm a little curious. "

As far as I know, the rumor of the headless horseman originated from "at night, someone will drive a black motorcycle with no lights on the road. This person is wearing a yellow helmet, but there is no head under the helmet. ".But at the same time, I heard from Rei Fubuya that Yagiri Pharmaceuticals has a "head".

Are the two related?

If there is, then can I understand that Yagiri Pharmaceutical with the "head" can control the "body" that walks at night?Is this "body" also related to Yagiri Pharmaceutical?Or are they separate entities?What part do they play in the case in which we are involved?Edogawa Rampo's statement is that the headless horseman is not human, what weakness do they have?

Of course, I said that these matters are all handed over to Rei Fuguya, and I just ask for information and help relay the information if necessary.

Orihara Rinya looked at me: "..."

I looked at Orihara Rinya quietly, and after waiting for almost 20 seconds, I didn't see him reply, so I put my pistol on the table: "You can choose to say it, or you can choose never to say it."

I kind of understand, why do people like power and power?

Because you don't need to go through mental and physical strength to control others at will.

It's energy efficient.

"Cough——" Orihara Lin was about to speak, and coughed for a long time, his whole face flushed, but I didn't hear him take a breath, as if fainting due to lack of oxygen is possible at any time.

Orihara leaned over the table, pressing the phone with trembling hands.

If I'm writing my last words now, I think it might be too late.

I took the phone away from his hand, trying to see what was written on it, but it turned out that the sender was mine, and the content of the text message at the bottom was "I am in so much pain that I can't speak..."

excuse me.

I put the phone back in his hand and signaled with my eyes that he could continue.

About 3 minutes later, I received a text message on my mobile phone, which briefly described the identity of the Headless Horseman and the current basic situation.So here I will say it in my own way.

The real body of the "Headless Horseman" that everyone sees on the market is from the legend of the Irish gods. It is a goblin who holds his head and drives a headless horse to perform work similar to the god of death. More than 20 years ago, because his head was stolen, he stumbled to Ikebukuro, Japan with his own induction.Because her style of doing things doesn't care about anyone's attention, she didn't care too much when people noticed her motorcycle without lights and her headless body, so the "Headless Horseman of Ikebukuro" spread like this.

At present, this god lives in the house of the underground doctor Kishiya Shilla, and usually does some transportation or bodyguard work.

"It stands to reason that the underground doctors have always had sufficient information, so could it be that the "head" has not been found? "The reason why I say this is because Mori Ogai was an underground doctor before he became the leader. He specialized in receiving patients or operations that conventional hospitals would not accept, and obtained a lot of information in this way.

"I am not sure."

I put the pistol I had just put away on the table again.

"All I know is that Kishitani also has contacts with Yagiri Pharmaceuticals."

"I want to see him." I said without a doubt.

Orihara Lin also leaned over the desk to watch me, neither spoke nor typed.This reminded me of how I was calculating in my heart when I had no power or power and had to obey all the arrangements of Osamu Dazai.In fact, I also think this is a very normal thing.When you are calculating others, you will also be calculated, and this is very normal.But I remembered Osamu Dazai's eyes at the scene of the fire.

"If I'm in any danger, I'll blame it on you." I thought about it, made sure I had included all the circumstances, and reminded Mr. Orihara that I am different from the past up. "I know that Mr. Orihara is self-employed, so he shouldn't be able to fight against the whole Hong Kong gangsters, right?"

I can take both the official path of the government and the underworld of Hong Kong gangsters.

I still believe in one thing: "In the face of absolute power, any scheming means are useless." Unless Orihara Rin also gained my trust, I might let him go just like Osamu Dazai let me go temporarily. .

Orihara Lin also sent me an address, and added a sentence at the bottom, "I knew you were a very serious person last time I met, but I didn't expect you to be so scary."

I interpret his words as a compliment.

"Personally, I still hope to communicate and cooperate with you peacefully, but the way you greet today, whether it's a joke or intentional, I think it's already challenging my bottom line. So, you have to understand My attitude towards you." I said seriously, "You can understand that although I'm not angry with you now, it doesn't mean I forgive you."

"..."

He specifically typed the ellipsis, what is he trying to express?

I didn't quite understand, but after a second thought, I said to Orihara Rin who was lying on the table: "Do you want me to forgive you?"

"Do something for you?"

Why does he feel that what I want him to do for me is one thing?

"Have you ever heard of Hercules?"

"A character in Greek mythology?"

"Very good. Let me tell you his story here. He is the illegitimate son of Zeus, a demigod hero. Because he was cursed by Zeus' wife Hera, he killed all his children in a state of madness. When he wakes up , He regretted and hated endlessly. So someone told him that if he wanted to get rid of this heavy sin, he needed to do ten things for his most hated enemy, Eurystheus."

"You want me to do ten things for you?!"

"I haven't finished." I think Orihara Rinya's personality is a little anxious, and he said slowly, "Because Hercules once asked Eurystheus for a reward when he completed ten things, among which The other one was completed with the help of others, so according to the oracle, he must do two more things to complete the atonement."

"Twelve things?"

"You can't bargain with me, and you can't disclose it to others, or ask others for help." I helped Orihara also extract the key points of this story-"quantity" is of course important, and "quality" is also very important. "Quality" also includes his seriousness in doing things and his loyalty to me.

"Ayanokōji, do you think that someone will say that you have no conscience?"

I thought for a while and said, "I haven't thought about this question, do you think I have no conscience?"

Orihara Lin also looked ugly, and typed "You are the most conscientious person I have ever met".

"In that case, why do you think anyone thinks I have no conscience?"

"Probably there will always be some people who don't know Taishan, and who care about every penny."

Ok.

I don't think this kind of thing really matters.

Whether I'm a good guy or a bad guy doesn't really matter.

"If you want me to forgive, you can volunteer to do twelve things for me unconditionally. This is not forcing, do you understand?" I said very politely.

Orihara Rin also looked up at me, then glanced at the gun on my table that hadn't been put away, and then glanced at the direction of the table. I could understand that he was looking at his injured abdomen through the table.I don't know how he thought about it, how he struggled, how he persuaded himself to agree, or how much profit and loss he would gain from it.

He finally spoke and said with difficulty: "I do."

I picked up my phone, turned on the camera and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not a particularly flexible person. In order to prevent you from lying to me, I need to record it, please say it again."

"........."
