It was four o'clock in the morning, and it was still dark.

In the dark night, everything is silent, and the vast majority of human beings are immersed in sweet dreams.

Yokohama, a [-]-square-meter rental room on the second floor of a certain apartment building.

A big explosion without warning suddenly came here.

The bad news came too suddenly. After the roar, the monstrous fires swept through the entire building one after another, and several rental houses next to it were also affected by this.

Fire trucks and ambulances rushed over overnight, honking their horns, and the neighbors around were woken up from their sleep. They came out in shock, and then gasped at the disaster.

By the time the fire was barely under control, it was already dawn.

far away.

"really."

In a safe room arranged by Osamu Dazai, Oda Sakunosuke watched the urgent news report on the TV screen with a heavy face, and clenched his fists:

"That guy...will do whatever it takes to force me to kill someone."

"It's a matter of course." Osamu Dazai sat on the other side, resting his cheeks with his hand, "That guy's supernatural power is too tricky, probably no one in the current mafia can kill him except you, of course , It’s okay to talk about Zhongya, but—unfortunately, I went on a business trip.”

"Then, just now, the leader had a secret meeting, and the other party was the Supernatural Secret Service... There are other inside stories about the mimic that we don't know about."

Dazai said, expressionless, with a shadow covering his face, "I have a bad guess, and it's probably correct...Hey, Odasaku, postpone the plan to attack the mimic base camp for another day, Before that, I have to meet the leader, and even if I have to make concessions, I will reach an agreement with him, at least to avoid some small-probability accidents—we will discuss it in the future after revenge.”

Oda Sakunosuke exhaled, scratched his head irritably, and let out an ah.

He stood up, walked to the door of a certain room, turned the doorknob slightly, and took a look inside. The children of the Oda family were still lying on the bed, and Sakule was there too—the child was discharged from the hospital in advance for safety , must rest now.Gin with gauze on his face was sitting aside, holding a book and reading quietly. After noticing Oda Sakunosuke's gaze, he raised his head and smiled gently at him.

……

At [-]:[-] last night, the rental house.

Osamu Dazai told Ryunosuke Akutagawa exactly why the gray-robed man attacked the children of the Oda family.

It begins with the disappearance of Ango Sakaguchi.

A few days ago, Mimic, a supernatural criminal organization that came from overseas and was hunted down by the British supernatural agency, fled from Europe to Yokohama, Japan, a foreign country. The powerful supernatural ability [Narrow Gate] leads a group of battle-tested subordinates.

They are a group of walking dead undead.

As a soldier, he was born and died for the country, but in the end he was abandoned by the country.

So, in order to find a place to die, Mimic's group of fallen soldiers began to pursue the battlefield, looking for the existence that could end their own lives.

However, the leader, Andre Gide, has never been able to find an opponent who can kill him because of his powerful supernatural ability [Narrow Gate].

Coincidentally, Oda Sakunosuke's supernatural ability [Inseparable Clothes], which is able to predict the crisis in the next five to six seconds, is exactly the same as the Mimic leader's supernatural ability. In addition, he is also an excellent former killer. Combat experience and awareness are top-notch.

This discovery instantly ignited the flame of hope in André Gide's heart. He desperately wanted the other party to fight him with all his strength, and then kill himself, completely removing him, the undead that survived from the battlefield, from the world. relief.

but.

Oda Sakunosuke doesn't kill people.

He wanted to be a novelist and wanted to be with children, but he was unwilling and unable to kill anyone.

"That's why they attacked the children."

Break the world of Oda, and selfishly drag the other party into hell.

Even if the children are lucky enough to be rescued by the Akutagawa family, as long as their wishes are not fulfilled, then it is absolutely impossible to give up.

What's even more unfortunate is that Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who had no intention of joining in, can't get out now.

Akutagawa quickly analyzed the current situation based on the available information, with a calm expression on his face. After thinking for a while, he looked at Dazai beside him:

"So, do you want to make a move?"

"Yes." Osamu Dazai rarely beat around the bush, but nodded frankly and sincerely, "Odasaku cannot kill people, and if the same supernatural power collides, unexpected disasters will definitely occur... If we let Odasaku go , will surely die."

"Mr. Akutagawa doesn't dislike killing people, right? I can feel it, because I'm very similar to Mr. Akutagawa...Although the secret of your ability, Sensei, is still unclear, there is no doubt that you are very powerful."

"I will apply for assistance with the leader, and Odasaku and I will be the main force. As long as the three of us work together and make a plan, it will just mimic—"

"It's just a doomed defeat."

Dazai Osamu's kite-colored eyes were wide open, and although he spoke arrogantly, he trembled his fingertips nervously.

He wasn't sure if Akutagawa Ryunosuke would help.

From the very beginning, Mr. Akutagawa clearly showed an attitude of rejecting any contact with the Mafia, and he was willing to take in the children of the Oda family because of the sake of his friends.Even if he was dragged into the water now, if Ryunosuke Akutagawa still didn't want to cause trouble, it would be an option to evacuate Yokohama quietly with his family.

Dazai had no doubt that Ryunosuke Akutagawa, who was just an ordinary writer at the moment, could do this.

Moreover, Akutagawa Ryunosuke is introverted, and rarely expresses his thoughts and emotions. No matter what, he will think about the result with a blank face and only answer. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to guess, even Dazai Osamu, It is also impossible to easily see through the other party's mind.

Osamu Dazai vaguely guessed that Akutagawa Ryunosuke was probably on their side in the past.

But now, the other party took pains to hide the past and lived as an ordinary writer.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa's current life is like the future of Sakunosuke Oda.

Dazai waited patiently for an answer.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "...do you have a safe house?"

"Huh?" Dazai tilted his head and made a questioning sound at the end, but his eyes lit up immediately.

"A hidden and safe house that can protect the companions below and the children of Oda-kun's family is needed now."

"Of course there is."

Osamu Dazai showed a bright smile: "After the Mimic attack fails, he will definitely attack a second time in a short period of time to increase the pressure on Odasaku."

In fact, it doesn't matter if mimic can directly kill the children of the Oda family, they just need to force Oda Sakunosuke to do it.

If Oda makes no move, the children will be in danger.

If Oda Saku hadn't killed them, the children would have been buried with them.

If this happens a few more times, the helpless Oda Sakunosuke will get what they want sooner or later.

Dazai thought, that can't be done.

Oda Sakunosuke, who lost his dream and returned to this side, was not the close friend he was familiar with.

"Therefore, I prepared the shelter early."

The black-haired and kite-eyed boy spoke happily, and his mood suddenly brightened.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was talking about [sister, companion, and Oda-kun's children].

Did not extract itself from it.

That's what promise means.

……

Four thirty in the afternoon.

Because there are a large number of ship smugglers, in the harbor area of ​​Yokohama, as long as you have money, you can basically buy anything. If you are a criminal who cannot make a living, you will often sell real guns to children.

With Akutagawa Ryunosuke's foresight, it was quite simple to find the smuggled gun dealers in the harbor area.

After camouflaging, he bought a few guns that felt good and fifty rounds of ammunition, and Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who didn't need any protection, took all of them with him.

He turned around and walked down the street without hesitation, his steps were steady, like a leisurely walk.

Ten minutes ago, he received a text message from Osamu Dazai.

——The plan to destroy the Mimic base camp, which was supposed to be carried out at dusk today, was postponed for one day.

Unsurprisingly, the reason is what Akutagawa guessed.

Oda Sakunosuke was just a low-level employee before this, and he was also a friend of the mafia cadre Osamu Dazai. The information on his family is not valuable in common sense. Cover is definitely not so easy to get.

However, after Oda Saku and Mimic's leader Tanbeng, the other party attacked the children and Akutagawa Ryunosuke's former residence at a completely unreasonable speed-if Mimic has a certain foundation and intelligence network in Yokohama, let it be, But they are just foreign organizations that entered Japan illegally from Europe not long ago, and they are not familiar with Yokohama at all.

There's no reason to get their place so easily.

The only possibility is that someone leaked information about the Oda family's children.

Osamu Dazai couldn't have imagined it, and he chose to postpone it for a day, no doubt he discovered something inside and made a cautious decision.

This incident seems to be getting more and more complicated, and it probably has something to do with the high-level port mafia itself, but Ryunosuke Akutagawa didn't pay much attention to it. After learning about the approximate size of the enemy Mimic and the effect of the opponent's leader's ability, He already had his own ideas in mind.

Akutagawa sent a text message asking Oda Sakunosuke: [Oda-kun, are you by the children's side? ]

Odasaku quickly replied to the text message: [Yes, everyone is in good spirits, Dazai went to see the leader, when are you coming? ]

[Protect them, I'll be back soon. ]

Akutagawa Ryunosuke put the phone back in his pocket.

Immediately afterwards, he stepped into the woods without hesitation.

The wind blowing from the forest blows his unique temples which are black on top and white on the bottom, his eyes are getting darker and darker against his pale complexion, the gray windbreaker is billowing behind him, and the signs of Rashomon's activation begin to appear End surge.

Oda Sakunosuke received an invitation letter from Mimic, on which the address of their base camp was written grandiosely.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke had undoubtedly seen it, and now he—

He was walking alone to the deserted villa deep in the woods.
