Everyone in Yokohama thinks I'm a villain

The full name of this "Akigase" is Akigase Kuno.

According to the intelligence investigated by the Port Mafia, he is a notorious person with supernatural abilities who was active in the Kanto region many years ago.

It used to be called [Human Skin Painter].

Seeing this, Kazuma Kazukawa finally recalled this character.

Since he is called a "human skin painter", what Akigase Kuno has done is naturally related to human skin.

The crazy criminal likes to use cruel methods to peel off the skin of others and paint on the human skin with paint. He claims to be the greatest artist in the world.

It's just that those works made of human skin are beautiful, but under the magnificent appearance is a horrifying and bloody truth.

Five years ago, Akigase Kuno entered Yokohama and set a record of killing 13 people in a row within one month in this famous magic city. After that, he was captured by the Supernatural Secret Service Division and taken into Agency No. [-].

Kazama Kazukawa will have an impression of this incident because he was the person in charge of the leather painter incident.

——But it's just an impression, otherwise he wouldn't be confused after seeing the letter signed by "Akigase".

The young man continued to read the letter in his hand.

Mori Ogai also probably felt that Kazukawa Kazukawa, who used to be in the Supernatural Secret Service Division, would know more details about Akigase Kuno's information than he did, so he didn't introduce too much.

In the letter, Mori Ogai said that he didn't think about it at first. After all, although he has the same surname, Akigase Kuno was taken into the No. [-] agency a few years ago.

It was an institution specially used to imprison criminals with supernatural abilities. The guards and supervision were extremely strict, and it was impossible for anyone to escape from it.

But not long ago, a squad of the Port Mafia discovered a distorted, skinned and bloodied body in an unused warehouse during a routine inspection of the warehouse.

The corpse had probably been sitting there for some time, starting to decompose and giving off a sickening smell.

There are really not many people who have this kind of perverted habit, and, although it is a bit inappropriate to say it, there are really not many people who can have such skillful skinning techniques.

So Mori Ogai became suspicious, and paid special attention to the recent actions of the Supernatural Secret Service, and found out who the Supernatural Secret Service was hunting for, and then learned about Akigase Kuno's escape from the No. [-] agency.

In this way, the person who sent the letter to Kazama and Chuan was undoubtedly the Akigase Kuno who escaped from the No. [-] prison.

Such a wanted criminal blatantly used his real name to send a letter to Kazama and Chuan, probably wanting to use this to declare war on Kazama and Chuan, telling Kazama and Chuan "I'm here to seek revenge on you".

But it's a pity that Kazama Kazukawa has handled countless cases in the Supernatural Special Affairs Section, and he has long been forgotten somewhere.

If Akigase Kuno knew that Kazama Kazukawa asked the port mafia to figure out his identity, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood.

After reading, Kazama and Kawakawa folded the letter and put it back in the envelope.

Mori Ogai said it simply, but the Supernatural Secret Service Division has always kept the affairs of the No. [-] agency as a secret (not to mention the prisoner escape scandal), so it is extremely difficult to investigate the information about Akigase Kuno's escape from the No. [-] agency .

The other party deliberately disclosed this matter to Kazama Kazukawa, nothing more than to show that the power of the port mafia is enough to compete with the Supernatural Secret Service.

——It seems that Mori Ogai still hasn't given up the idea of ​​recruiting himself into the port mafia.

But Kazuma Kazukawa did not intend to change his answer.

And at present, the first thing he needs to solve is Akigase Kuno.

Although I don't know why the other party hasn't moved after calling me to Yokohama, but if he continues to let it go like this, the other party will have a few more victims.

The sky was getting dark, and the moonlight like thin frost shone in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, reflecting the coldness in the office.

The astrologer with brown hair and ocher eyes sat on the sofa, looking down at the letter in his hand.

After a long time, he stood up and had some plans in his mind.

the other side.

Atsushi Nakajima found an excuse to leave the astrology office casually, and he was still a little restless after going out.

On the one hand, he felt that Kazama and Chuan were indeed hiding danger, but on the other hand, he couldn't help but wonder if he was thinking too much.

After all, Kazuma Kazukawa is someone who can say "live for others".How could such a person be dangerous?

However, every time such an idea comes to mind, it is always followed by a "but".

In this way, Atsushi Nakajima struggled all the way, but failed to come up with an answer that would convince him.

After arriving at the downstairs of the Armed Detective Agency, Nakajima Atsushi suddenly thought that he might be able to ask Edogawa Ranpo for advice.As a famous detective with extraordinary talents, Edogawa Ranpo will surely solve the truth of this matter soon.

But Atsushi Nakajima thought about it, and worried that if Kazukawa's true identity was really dangerous—for example, if his identity was a wanted criminal—then the Armed Detective Agency would naturally not sit idly by. It's not about harming the other party.

Atsushi Nakajima has extremely complicated feelings towards Kazukawa now, but he has to say that even if the other party is dangerous, he doesn't want to hurt him.

Atsushi Nakajima tried his best to shake his head to get rid of the messy thoughts in his brain, and then pushed open the door of the Armed Detective Agency.

He originally thought that at this time, there should not be many people left in the detective agency, but when he entered the door, Atsushi Nakajima found that almost all members of the armed detective agency were present except Junichiro Tanizaki and Naomi Tanizaki.

In front of the desk, Kunikida Doppo was sliding the mouse quickly, staring at the computer screen intently, not knowing what information he was looking for.

The others also seemed to be quite busy, the opened files lined up the entire desk, and the extra files even took up most of the floor of the Armed Detective Agency.

Atsushi Nakajima carefully avoided the old files lined up at his feet, walked up to Kunikida Doppo, and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Kunikida, what happened?"

Kunikida Doppo seemed to have noticed his return just now, without raising his head, he said, "A request from the Supernatural Secret Service Division, a person with supernatural abilities has escaped from Unit No. [-]."

Atsushi Nakajima was puzzled: "Organ No. [-]?"

"It's a criminal organization run by the government."

A voice came from behind Atsushi Nakajima.

Nakajima Atsushi said pleasantly: "Mr. Dazai?!"

At the entrance of the detective agency, a tall young man was wearing a sand-colored windbreaker, with dark brown hair slightly curly, and a smile in his kite-colored eyes.

Before Atsushi Nakajima could say anything, Kunikida Doppo broke out first: "Dazai! You bastard, I will ask you to investigate the intelligence this afternoon. Now, let me ask you, where is the intelligence?!"

After yelling, Kunikida Doppo thought: "Damn... I have to go there myself, and today's plan has been disrupted again."

Osamu Dazai had an attitude of watching the fun without his business: "Don't be so nervous, if Kunikida-kun is always so impatient, be careful that your hair turns gray."

Kunikida Doppo's whole body was filled with depression: "Shut up! If you don't find out the person with the supernatural ability as soon as possible, someone will definitely suffer again."

After all, he lowered his head again to fight with the data in the computer.

Osamu Dazai walked over to Atsushi Nakajima indifferently, and continued the previous topic: "Organ No. [-] is a very special organization... which housed many dangerous supernatural criminals. Those criminals have supernatural powers, so The threat to society is also far beyond ordinary people.

"The prisoner who escaped this time is named Akigase Kuno, code-named 'Human Skin Painter', and he is a skinned murderer. There have been three murders in Yokohama in recent days, and it should be him. If it continues, he will create more tragedies, so we are entrusted to investigate this matter."

In fact, if the situation hadn't become more severe, the Supernatural Secret Service would not have handed over this scandal-like case to the Armed Detective Agency, an external organization, to handle it.

If other organizations, such as the Bureau of Judiciary, learn that someone escaped from the No. [-] agency because of their ineffective supervision, they will definitely take the opportunity to make a big fuss.

Letting that kind of organization come under the sun is the biggest dereliction of duty.

Osamu Dazai took a file from the desk and gave it to Atsushi Nakajima.

Nakajima Atsushi took it and found that it was the basic information of Akigase Kuno.

The man in the photo has an ordinary appearance, his hair is an extremely dry yellow color, his eye sockets are deep-set, and his jet-black eyes are particularly energetic.

He seems to be just one of thousands of ordinary people in the world, but the crimes he committed in the file records are enough to make any person with a conscience feel terrified.

Atsushi Nakajima felt scalp numb just looking at the text description in the file, but he was relieved silently.

To be honest, his first reaction when he heard the news was to wonder if the escaped prisoner was Kazuma Kazukawa... It's great to confirm that it's not the other party.

However, such a dangerous person with supernatural power escaped from prison and hid in Yokohama.

Looking at the criminal record in his hand, Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help but shudder.

Hope he doesn't kill more people.

"Since you're here, don't be idle, Atsushi, and help Kenji-kun sort out the previous case materials." Kunikida Doppo rubbed his temples.

"Yes!" Atsushi Nakajima said hurriedly.

Everyone in the Armed Detective Agency has been busy until late at night before going to rest. Unfortunately, there is still no new progress in the incident.

In the early morning of the next day, Atsushi Nakajima rushed to the Armed Detective Agency again to assist Kunikida in processing the data.

At nine o'clock in the morning, news came from the Supernatural Secret Service Division that the military and police had found a new corpse on the Ferris wheel in the city park.

The skin of the deceased was peeled off all over his body, and his death was extremely miserable.

The "Human Skin Painter" committed crimes again.
