[Bungo Stray Dogs] Yokohama Renka

"If Dazai-sama annoys you, for the sake of our superiors and subordinates for so many years, please tolerate him more."

I tilted my head, expressing my willingness to hear the details, and I also had some vague guesses in my heart.

"He knew in advance that you might die, but he still arranged the plan like this. He came to me in the afternoon and asked me to paint for the photos he took. When we learned of your death, his expression—in short Osamu Dazai is too dangerous, I think you must know this."

"Okay, okay, am I standing here right now?" I waved my hand, "Your ability is not to jump to a parallel world, but to go back to the past time point, and get angry for things that never happened. Not my style."

"You are really just like what Mr. Ranpo said, you are a complete and complete idiot!" Ishiguro-kun became angry with me instead, and his hand holding the glasses frame was shaking.

I straightened up and patted the dust on my pants: "Compared to Mr. Ranpo, 99.9% of people are idiots. Ishiguro-kun is the same. If you disturb a girl's relationship, you will be kicked in the head by a donkey."

"..."

Ishiguro-kun was so choked that he couldn't lift his breath, his face was flushed red, and he stared at me fixedly.

I thought he was going to talk about me again, and sighed: "If this is the choice to maximize the benefits, Dazai-sama can only do this, right? I trust him, and he would never want me to get hurt if it is not necessary. Since he gave me the key arrangement to stop Ms. Kimura... Maybe you can't understand, this is his trust in me. Although the way of expression is very unreasonable."

"I'm not completely indifferent. Anyway, if you want to do this, why don't you tell me in advance. ... Well, this person is just not too frank. You will know after getting along for a long time in the future. His essence is not bad. It's just that she has an awkward personality, and it's troublesome to be friends and colleagues."

Ishiguro-kun was stunned for a while, his brows twitched subtly twice, I was a little puzzled, but I saw Ishiguro-kun took out a walkie-talkie headset from his pocket.

"!!"

"Did you hear it all?" Ishiguro-kun said blankly.

"...Hey, wait for me, won't it be on the other side??"

"That's right, it's your favorite Dazai. Just now he was telling me 'don't tell Yuu these things'."

I covered my face, thinking that Dazai heard all the nasty words I just said to Ishiguro-kun, and I was so ashamed that I wanted to explode on the spot.

"Do you want to talk to him?" Ishiguro-kun said with dead eyes.

"—Absolutely not!" I said through gritted teeth, and decided that I would never do Ishiguro-kun any favors again.

...will not help for at least three months!

In the next few days, in order to wrap things up during this period, the entire detective agency was so busy that we couldn’t wait to squeeze out time to drink saliva. Consciously or unintentionally, Dazai and I stopped talking at all when we were in the detective agency. We spent time resting at home with each other, and only the remaining temperature on the pillow reminded me that he was still living with me.

Recently, Dazai would silently turn his eyes away when his eyes were intertwined. I don't think he should have moved on, but I couldn't figure out what he was thinking.I guess he did something behind my back and didn't want me to know.A little depressed, he still refused to be honest.

After handing in the last information for today, my work has finally come to an end.I took a long breath, thinking that sooner or later there will be new events in this city, I can't help but feel admiration for this crumbling but still strong daily life.

"Dazai! Where did this idiot go to be lazy again?!"

Just as I was feeling emotional, Kunikida-kun roared angrily behind me, I turned around and took a look, and my boyfriend was gone.

Dr. Yosano walked over in high heels, and she leaned close to my ear: "Didn't you quarrel with Dazai these days? Xiaoyu, now is the chance to reconcile."

"We didn't quarrel, Miss Akiko. But you're right, I really should go to him, otherwise Kunikida-kun will be very angry."

I asked passers-by about Dazai's whereabouts. I passed the izakaya he frequented, a deserted game hall, a small bar, walked through the alleys, and crossed the street. I gradually calmed down a little anxious at first.The thought that I was following in his footsteps to see what he had seen slowed me down, and it gave me the feeling that he was sharing his world with me.

Purple-red clouds gradually filled the other side of the sky, and there seemed to be a layer of melted gold floating on the sea in the distance. I walked down the path and down the steps, and there was a cemetery next to it.I saw Dazai leaning against a tombstone with his back closed, wondering what he was thinking.His expression looked relaxed, it didn't look like he was missing someone, it was more like the state of lingering after talking and laughing with a good friend.

I looked at him quietly like that, and couldn't help softening my eyes.

"Finding here all the way, Xiaoyou really won't give up."

Dazai said to me while maintaining his original posture.

"Ah, so you noticed me coming?" I walked in front of him, folded my hands and bowed.

"Do you know this person?" Dazai said lightly, but I know that he must not be as relaxed as his tone now.

"No, but he must be very important to Dazai-sama, right?"

"Ahaha, I really can't hide it from you." Dazai stood up, with his back to me, quietly looking at the tombstone.

"He is my friend. He is the man who created the opportunity for me to leave the Mafia and join the detective agency." Dazai said calmly.

"That's right." I said.

After I left, he actually met the person who turned him around.Surprisingly, I should have felt sad that someone important to Dazai was no longer alive, but I didn't feel that way, and even felt that being sad was a blasphemy to their feelings.To Dazai, this person must be as important as Yui is to me. He must have changed his life.

So I understand that this is the past that Dazai took the initiative to confess to me.I just need to know his existence and his meaning to Dazai, and I don't need any other superfluous thoughts.

"It was Kunikida-kun who asked you to come to me? But the working hours have passed, so it's useless to ask me to go back now, okay?" Dazai turned around, walked to me and took my hand, "But I also I don't want to go home, Xiaoyou, come walk with me."

I shook hands with my lover's interlocking fingers to express my agreement, so we walked quietly on the path full of golden sunset, listening to the cries of seagulls in the distance and the sound of sea water ebb and flow, unknowingly, dusk When I arrived, the sunset in the sky sank into the sea level, and I noticed that the scenery here seemed familiar, so I couldn't help but stop.

"Ah, here is..."

"What's the matter, Yuu?"

"...This is the first place I saw when I came to this world."

As I said, I let go of Dazai's hand, and put my hands on the railing, facing the sea, comparing it with the picture in my memory.

For nearly five years, I have not been here again, the starting point of my second life, and also the place to bid farewell to my most important friends.

A strange urge rose in my chest. I wanted to tell Dazai about my past, and he was the only one in the world who knew it.

"Master Dazai, I haven't told you about my past, have I? - I used to be a freelance mercenary. Although I think you probably guessed it long ago, let me tell you myself."

I paused, organized my language, and continued.

"Before I came here, I lived a life where I often had to kill people. The city was in a mess, and monsters walked on the roads. In the end, they were calculated to die. It was a shitty life. If there is no friend you know, I It must be like that, dying without knowing any good things. I can't value anyone, and I don't have feelings like love. I will be a walking dead just to survive until the end of my death."

I turned my head, resisting my embarrassment and trying to tell Dazai what I said.

"Ah, it's really embarrassing to say this, but I still have to say, I am really lucky to have met Dazai-sama, without you, I would never have found a path that suits me as I do now, Dazai-sama, you For me it's..."

"Xiao Yu." Dazai gently covered my lips, I was stunned for a moment, and then he hugged me tightly in his arms.I wanted to lift my head from my lover's grip, but he held my head down.

"Now I can't let Xiaoyou see my expression. Be obedient, don't move, I also want to say something important to you."

"Meeting Xiaoyou is one of the few times in my life when I was favored by the goddess of luck."

His voice was a little trembling, and when I lay on his chest, listening to the muffled voice, my heart felt a slight pain as if being stirred, obviously I was hugged by him, but I wanted to hug him even more.

"Loving and being loved, every time I hug you tightly, I think about whether I have the qualifications. But whenever I hesitate, you always come to me, without fear of harm, without asking In the past, hold my hand so firmly. Even I can't help but want to try to trust someone unconditionally."

"So Xiaoyou, take responsibility. You are the one who reached out to me, a coward. Even though I haven't found the answer to survival, if it were you, you would definitely be able to live with me, and accompany me to find it?"

"Marry me, Xiaoyou."

I raised my head, and Dazai's face had an expression that I had never seen before, the real him who had broken away from all pretense, a face that was almost crying.

At that moment, my heart was full of pity and love, I couldn't help but grabbed the clothes on Dazai's chest, tiptoed to kiss his soft lips, and kissed him gently comfortingly.

...Too cunning, how could I refuse you with such an expression?

"Yeah, okay. I can't even imagine marrying someone other than Dazai-sama."

He is the person I love, he is the most important existence in my life, and he is the only person I don't need to keep the past.

Although I didn't expect to progress to this point, but to be able to become a family member with him, just imagining it makes me feel that my happiness is going to burst my chest.

Dazai buried his head on my shoulder, and I heard him let out a sigh of relief, followed by an unheard word: "Thank you, Yuu."

We hugged like this for a while on the seaside path in the setting sun until Dazai let go of me.

"There's something I have to give Yuu."

Dazai held my right hand, I was puzzled, but he took out a ring from the windbreaker pocket and put it on for me.

"!! When did you buy it? Damn it, why didn't you tell me in advance. Doesn't it seem that I don't care about you if I don't return the gift?" I said incoherently.

Ahhhh this guy, this guy!I thought it was his temporary idea to propose, but in the end, I was tricked again?

Dazai rubbed my head, he has returned to his usual appearance, his peach eyes are full of soft sparkle, he said with a smile: "I secretly picked it when Xiaoyou was busy sorting out the case. As for the return gift, I have already Received the best gift."

I was stunned for a moment, and when I realized it, I blushed immediately, and stretched out my hand to pinch his cheek.Forget it, who made me fall in love with such a person.

"It hurts. Xiaoyou is really mean, I wanted to tell you the story of my past."

"Well, you're going to tell me sooner or later anyway, aren't you?"

"Well, that's what I said."

Everyone is wandering forward, and everyone is enduring pain that others cannot understand. In such a boring world, what a luxury it is to meet someone who makes you look forward to.

However, even if we are moving forward in confusion, we are moving forward every day. One day, we will get the answer we want. I believe so and hold the hands of people around me.
