It happened during Dazai's bleaching underground.

That morning, Dazai woke up abnormally early.After tidying up, he hummed a little song, opened the door, and planned to go to the shopping street.

Today is the day when bandages are on sale~ What if I get there late and they are all sold out~

Thinking of this, he stepped forward happily.

The moment he stepped out of the door, he was keenly aware of the abnormality, and then he saw the door frame disappear.

Ability?

He secretly tightened his knuckles and prepared himself for defense under the cover of his coat, but he kept the innocent and carefree look on his face just now.

This is not my door.Dazai is sure.

Not to mention that there is no alley in front of my house, this obviously belongs to the west and has a sense of age, and it is impossible to appear in Yokohama.

and--

He raised his eyes slightly.

The dim light and the dull and polluted air all reveal the information that this place is underground.

Is it a person with supernatural powers who can manipulate space like Lan Tang?

"Well."

A groan interrupted Dazai's train of thought.

He looked towards where the sound came from, and saw a child lying on the ground.

It was a rather thin child, who could even be described as skinny.

He was wearing a baggy and tattered unlined garment, which was covered with dust and footprints, and the original color could not be seen at all.

Even though it is covered by clothes, the lines of the bones can still be clearly shown.

At this time, he was surrounded by several older children, who kicked and crushed him recklessly, and kept saying vicious words.

Perhaps aware of his presence, the children stopped and looked over at the same time. After seeing his clothes clearly, they looked a little scared.

Bullying?

Dazai took a look and then looked away.

He doesn't want to be nosy.What's more, the most important thing now is to figure out the current situation.

Seeing that they didn't stop them, those children slowly resumed the violence they had just done.

Before turning to leave, he met a pair of eyes.

It was a pair of gray-blue and hollow eyes.Because of being too thin, the cheeks are deeply sunken, and the eyes are therefore very prominent, like ghosts.

Those people's movements were still going on, but those eyes were lifeless, without even a slight fluctuation, as if they had long been accustomed to all this.

That look is kind of annoying.He looked away and decided to get out of here quickly.

『Go and be the one who saves people.』』

Gee.

Dazai withdrew his footsteps, walked slowly towards that side, and then stopped a few steps away from the group of people, looking at them with a smile in his eyes.

"Excuse me, I have a few words to ask this kid, so, can you please leave?"

Several people looked at each other, and then a leader-like person removed the foot that was on the child's shoulder.

"Let's go."

After speaking, he ran into the depths of the alley first.Seeing this, the rest of the children quickly ran away without looking back.

After the figures of those people disappeared completely, and even the sound of footsteps could no longer be heard, the child stood up with difficulty, using his arms as support.

He glanced at Dazai with those emotionless eyes, and moved slowly to the left while leaning on the wall.

What, this kind of helping the weak is more boring than imagined, Odasaku.

Perhaps it was because of getting up too early, Dazai couldn't help but yawned, and then he noticed that the child was barefoot.

The ground here is very rough, not to mention dusty, there are also a lot of stones, wood chips, glass shards and the like.Even though the child was very careful, he would still step on something because he couldn't avoid it.After a while, some dark colors appeared on the ground he walked on.

However, the child's expression remained unchanged.

Oh, the endurance is not bad.Dazai picked up his steps and followed behind him slowly.

After following for a while, Dazai felt that this kid was not as boring as he imagined.

At least, after being aware of being followed by a stranger, he knows how to deliberately lead the other party around.

What will be waiting for you in front of you?I really look forward to it.At the next street corner, he slowed down on purpose, and only followed from a distance after the other party relaxed his vigilance.

After walking for another ten minutes, just when Dazai was about to lose interest, the child finally stopped.

It was a rather dilapidated house.Although you haven't entered yet, you can feel the simplicity of the inside from the outside.

"cough cough"

Hearing the coughing sound from inside, the boy quickly opened the door and walked in, regardless of the pain in his body.Before the door closed, Dazai also quietly walked sideways into the room.

Sure enough, there was nothing in the room except a bed and a wooden table.

On the thin bed, a thin woman lay there, her long black hair scattered on the pillow.

Although his complexion is not very good due to illness, but according to the outline of his appearance, he looks pretty good before he thinks about it.

"Levi?"

Hearing the movement at the door, the woman turned sideways with difficulty.After seeing herself, her expression instantly became terrified.

"Levi!"

She screamed and straightened up abruptly. After the boy ran over, she hugged him tightly and stared at herself vigilantly, like a wounded beast that was about to fight to the death.

Only then did the boy notice his existence, and his expression was a little desperate for a moment.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."

Realizing that they must have misunderstood something, Dazai raised his hands, signaling his innocence: "I am Dazai, a scholar (of suicide). I was going to purchase some special items, but ended up somehow Here. Because I only saw this child on the street, I just wanted to ask for directions."

"Ask for directions?" The defense in the woman's eyes did not ease because of this explanation.

"Yes." Dazai nodded affirmatively, "If possible, could you please tell me where this is?"

After hesitating for a while, the woman still answered his question: "...this is Wangdu Underground Street."

"Wangdu underground street?"

"Yes."

"Sir, I think...you should be a person on the ground. There are many passages leading to the ground nearby. You only need to pay the corresponding fee to go back to the top through the stairs." When saying this, the woman's There was a bit of urgency in his tone unconsciously, as if he couldn't wait to let him leave quickly.

Although there are still some things I want to ask, the current situation is obviously not suitable for continuing the conversation.

"Okay, I see. Thank you for your generous answer." Dazai saluted politely, opened the door and walked out.
