[Comprehensive] How to kill a rabid dog gently

Soon, no one seemed to remember the mimic event.

For ordinary citizens who worked hard during the day, they never knew that ghosts sneaked into the shadows at night from the beginning, and naturally they had no way of knowing their departure, and those who were directly related were almost separated... Weaving The only trace left of Tasakunosuke in Yokohama is the tomb facing the sea. Ango Sakaguchi returned to the Supernatural Secret Service Division, and Osamu Dazai not only stopped visiting the small bar that the three of them used to frequent, but also changed his attitude towards work. Very tired and lazy.

Osamu Dazai leaned on Cheng's legs and lay sideways on the sofa playing games, while Cheng flipped through the advertisements of travel agencies in magazines, stroking the back of his neck one after another, as if he was caressing some kind of girl who was lazily sunbathing. of large animals.

"Is it okay to stay at home for so many days, Dazai?"

"It's okay, anyway, this black-hearted company has never given me paid annual leave."

Osamu Dazai sighed, put the game console aside, and stood up to look at the travel advertisement that Cheng was reading. The magazine was turning to the page of "Hot Spring Travel", with provocative titles and exquisite photos.

"The hot springs... Although the hot springs are pretty good, they always feel a bit too simple and nothing new."

He took the magazine and began to comment plausibly. While listening, Cheng picked up the game console that Osamu Dazai had left on the sofa.

"The city is too boring, and mountain climbing is tiring..." Osamu Dazai picked and picked, and quickly read the whole book, "Should you consider international travel..."

"Uh-huh."

"France or Switzerland, Ah Cheng, which one do you prefer? Or do you want to go to Italy to pay homage to the legendary colleague..."

"Uh-huh."

"Ah Cheng, are you listening, Ah Cheng?"

"Yes, international travel, right?"

She just ended a game and handed the game console back to Osamu Dazai.

"Yeah, you think Italy... wait, a new record?"

Osamu Dazai stared at the screen and checked repeatedly, finally confirming that his account was indeed pushed down from the first place by the newly created player account.

"A Cheng?!"

"Let's put the new record and travel plans aside for now."

"But I think we should discuss the record..."

"The weather is so nice now, Dazai." Cheng looked out the window, the sun reflected on her face, when she blinked, her eyelashes seemed to flutter slightly, "Want to go on a date?"

"--go."

It's somewhat surprising when you think about it carefully, the two of them didn't have any experience that can be defined as "dating", or in other words, the process from acquaintance to falling in love basically violated common sense in every link.

Regarding the question "Where do you want to go on a date?", Osamu Dazai thought about it for a while.

"Let me think about it, where most couples go... an amusement park?"

Dazai said to himself.

"But I don't like places like amusement parks, which are noisy and crowded. The only place that can be called valuable is that there are many ways to choose suicide..."

"What about the cinema?"

"This is even more incomprehensible!" Dazai Osamu showed a surprised expression, "Spending two hours in a dark room where you can't see Ah Cheng, and you can't talk to Ah Cheng casually, isn't this a shameful waste?"

In the end, she couldn't decide on any purposeful activities, so Cheng said, let's at least go to the other side of the river first, and then she took Dazai's hand, so Dazai had no objections.

"A Cheng."

Osamu Dazai seems to like looking down at the sparkling river, maybe he didn't even realize it, when his eyes traced the sky and cloud shadows reflected in the water, he would occasionally show longing and melancholy.

At this moment, Cheng would hold his hand tightly and tell him in this way that he can't go there yet.

"Recently, I have been thinking about what Oda Saku said to me." Dazai Osamu said, "Oda Saku told me that it is impossible to find what I am looking for here, he said—"

When he was talking about this, he suddenly saw a small struggling figure in the water floating down from the upper reaches. This was a very magical moment. What Oda Saku said and the scene in front of him subtly overlapped. A small but bright spark collided in the heart intertwined with contradictions and thoughts.

Osamu Dazai gave up thinking, and his body took the lead in action. Before Cheng could react, his hands were already empty.

— Osamu Dazai jumped into the river.

She was taken aback at first, but Cheng quickly discovered that Dazai Osamu did not sink to the bottom of the water like anyone who tried to drown himself in the river, but instead swam towards the center of the river, where there was a drowning kitten slapping the water in vain .

Kawasaki Sumiya didn't dare to leave her eyes for a moment, the river was very fast, she followed the other figure closely, and ran along the river bank unknowingly.

She watched Osamu Dazai fish out the wet kitten from the whirlpool and head towards her. Finally, he pushed the fluffy thing in his arms out of the water, and he himself climbed ashore almost exhausted.

Dazai's hair was dripping with water, and his eyes, which always seemed too cold, had the illusion of warmth under the refraction of the light. He raised his head and met Cheng's gaze.

In this very short moment, many thoughts flashed through Kawasaki Summi's mind.

She thought about Dazai's past that she had guessed, about the time spent with Dazai so far, and finally, Dazai's future.

"Did I scare you?"

Osamu Dazai asked her.

"While discussing Odasaku, this happened again... So this may not be a good opportunity to try, I think so."

Chung sat down beside Osamu Dazai.

"How do you feel, Dazai?"

"This is the first time, I tried to save something in the river, instead of using it to drown myself." Dazai Osamu laughed, with two parts of boyish innocence, "It doesn't feel so bad... Hey, Ah Cheng."

He looked up at the clear sky.

"If you travel, you can go anywhere - I want to go far, far away, so far away that no one can find us, just like Oda Saku said..."

"Mr. Dazai!"

There was never a more unfortunate visitor than this.

Osamu Dazai seemed to wake up suddenly from a dream, and the soft emotions faded from his face in an instant, leaving no trace like a bubble bursting.

Guangjin Liulang hurriedly walked up to the two of them.

"Finally found you, Mr. Dazai, there is no longer any delay at work, so please..."

"So, what are you doing here, Chuya?"

"I'm here to convey the meaning of the boss."

Zhong Yuanzhong, who was standing a few steps away, also replied.

"'Come back when you've had enough fun.' That's what the boss said."

Osamu Dazai stared at Chuya Nakahara without saying a word, and the latter's demeanor suddenly became cold and severe. They confronted each other in silence, and the smell of gunpowder smoke could almost be smelled in the air.

By accident, the one who gave in this time was Osamu Dazai.

"Cheng, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I have to go, shall we see you tonight?" He turned his head and said to Kawasaki Cheng, "I am very happy today... But, if we travel, we probably can't go too far."

He hooked the corner of his mouth.

"After all, I've never had such a long vacation before."

Kawasaki Summi walked along the river bank alone.

Osamu Dazai told her that he was thinking about Oda Saku's words all the time, but in fact, she was no different. From that day on, Kawasaki Summi was constantly thinking and questioning the same thing.

"Go to the side that saves people."

Cheng repeated the words she heard in a low voice, and stopped somewhere.

"Actually, you came to see me, Mr. Zhongyuan."

"...Miss Kawasaki."

Zhong Yuanzhong was also a few steps behind her and pressed down on the brim of his hat.

"Boss wants to see you."
