Luo Shengmeng has no feelings today

"Then go contribute."

Today's weather is very good, the temperature is cool, but the sun is pouring down warmly.

From time to time, birds landed on the eaves and sang crisply.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was wearing a gray kimono, with feathers draped over his shoulders, and was sitting on the veranda on the first floor basking in the sun with a book in his hand. He tilted his head and looked at Kazuhiguchi who was kneeling on the tatami in the room behind him. Ye, after the thud of adding water in the courtyard, said so naturally.

Sanhuamao Kananosuke lazily nestled beside Akutagawa, also basking in the sun, flicking its tail once and for all. It opened its eyes and looked at Ichiyo Higuchi, and then rested its head on its paws.

"Really!"

Higuchi Ichiyo immediately straightened his body, and said with surprise on his face: "I can also contribute, to run for the Akutagawa Prize?"

"...After all, there is no rule that restricts you from participating, right?"

"But, but!" Ichiyo Higuchi hesitated, "I am the editor of Mr. Akutagawa..."

"So?" Akutagawa showed a somewhat dazed expression when he heard the words, "What's wrong with the editor? It's better to say... If you can become the editor below, it means that you have a certain literary background. Since you want to participate, then there are What is there to hesitate about?"

Higuchi Ichiyo showed an extremely pious and happy expression as if he heard the guidance of God.

"But I won't be a judge...it's too troublesome, and it's also to ensure fairness, so if you want to participate, do your best, Higuchi."

"Yes!!"

Higuchi Kazuyo replied loudly, her eyes were shining brightly looking at the golden light of the sun covering her whole body, and she respected the noble gentleman in her eyes.

"I, Higuchi, will definitely live up to Akutagawa-sensei's expectations!"

Akutagawa: I can't even talk about anticipation...it doesn't matter who wins the prize.

As a long time ago gaining both fame and fortune, the children in the family are gradually becoming independent. Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who has no material desires, could not understand the excitement of Higuchi Ichiyo in the first place—unless the name of this award is changed to his teacher R, Otherwise, it would be impossible for Akutagawa to empathize with him.

In the same way, when Dazai Osamu and Oda Sakunosuke came to visit together after get off work and talked to him about this matter, Akutagawa Ryunosuke also failed to understand Dazai Osamu's high emotions. At most, Dazai Osamu said that he would also participate When showing a little surprised expression.

Osamu Dazai... Akutagawa thought about the image of this guy in the past, and there was no way to connect him with the writer.

Rather, if everyone who knew Osamu Dazai in the past knew about this, they would probably be frightened and doubt life.

Even though he thought so, Mr. Akutagawa Ryunosuke still gave encouragement without discrimination.

Anyway, there are still five months before the selection of the first Akutagawa Award, and Akutagawa is not a judge, at most he will present an award after the selection is over, so Akutagawa did not pay too much attention to it, saying After all, his mind was not on this side.

Even so, due to his preference for literature, in his spare time, Akutagawa is still more or less looking forward to new works in the literary world.

When Osamu Dazai said he wanted to write, he really started to write.

Much more refreshing than Sakunosuke Oda, who is suspected of procrastination, perhaps because the Akutagawa Award has an extraordinary allure for him, Osamu Dazai immediately bought a lot of paper and pens and went home, and began to seriously burn the night. .

It is obviously modern, but whether it is Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Oda Sakunosuke, or even the current Dazai Osamu, they all stubbornly abandon the convenient tools and choose to complete the manuscript by hand.

Literature is not so easy to start with. Although Oda Sakunosuke wants to become a novelist, he has not published his works for a long time. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but good works need to be carefully crafted, especially novels, which take ten years There are also examples of time to write.

For Oda Sakunosuke, literature is more like a symbol of living in a peaceful world than as a means of earning a living.

—Of course, it would be even better if I could make a living by the way.

After all, since Oda Sakunosuke left the port mafia, the number of adopted children began to increase day by day. This overly kind old man has never been able to watch the homeless children wandering in the street slums. It doesn't matter if there is one more... Such superimposed ideas, gradually picking up more and more, and finally the number of children in the Oda family is already so many that even Akutagawa Ryunosuke can't help being amazed. Of course, the pressure of daily expenses has also increased a lot .

The Akutagawa Award has a prize of 100 million yen. If you can get it, it will be considered a timely rain for Oda Sakunosuke.

In short, the first time the Akutagawa Prize was established, the entire Japanese literary world became active.

"It seems very interesting." Tanizaki Naomi looked at Dazai Osamu and Oda Sakunosuke holding a book and pen thinking all day long, and excitedly pulled his brother Tanizaki Junichiro: "Brother, do you want to try it too?"

"Eh? Please spare me." Mr. Tanizaki looked at his younger sister, "I have never written a novel before."

"Brother doesn't want to participate?" Naomi narrowed her eyes and leaned closer: "Why?"

"Because, because!" Mr. Tanizaki looked at his younger sister's face, and couldn't help but look back a little: "Because, if you write, won't you spend less time with Naomi?"

Tanizaki Naomi was stunned for a moment, then she showed a bright and overly intimate smile, and rushed over with a blushing face.

"Ah - my brother is so cute! Awesome, I like my brother the most -"

"Wait, wait! Naomi—!?"

The brother and sister who broke the shame of the detective agency once again got tired of blinding their colleagues.

"Pay attention to my image!!"

Kunikida walked in with a stack of documents and saw this scene, raised his glasses and shouted helplessly, then walked to Dazai Osamu and Oda Saku, and put the documents in his hands in front of them.

Odasaku raised his eyes: "This is?"

"New commission."

Kunikida said: "It's okay for you and Osamu Dazai to handle it? Originally, the president wanted Dazai and I to pick it up, but Oda, you haven't got enough rent for next month, right? This time The entrustment rewards are quite a lot, so you have to do it well.”

"Ah, thank you very much, Mr. Kunikida, no problem." Odasaku nodded honestly, but Dazai on the other side suddenly widened his eyes, with Kunikida's expression of "making trouble for no reason".

"Why why!? Why did you ask me to go by name!" Osamu Dazai raised his hand in protest: "I still have to write! If you have to change, please remove me from it, Kunikida, you and Oda Saku La!"

"Take a good look at your workload this month!" Kunikida snarled and reached out to hold Dazai's head, and hit the table with a thud: "You didn't even accept a single commission this month, bastard Dazai! Since You are a member of the detective agency, so go to work hard for me! Every day I go to the coffee shop downstairs to pay on credit, and I am ashamed to say I know you!"

"Mama Kunikida really cares about—"

"what!?"

Boom!

Kunikida, a student of martial arts master Fukuzawa Yukichi, threw his colleague Dazai out with an extremely smooth shoulder throw.

……

The commission this time is one related to the military.

Recently, rumors about man-eating tigers have been circulating in Yokohama.

It is said to be a man-eating tiger, but it is not clear whether it eats people or not. After all, there is no clear evidence, but there are many reports of making trouble in the city and eating crops in the field.

During this time, there were many testimonies of witnessing man-eating tigers in this area. In order to resolve this incident as soon as possible and ensure the safety of ordinary people, the military has entrusted an armed detective agency—a specialized agency that cannot be entrusted to the military and The dangerous job of the police is in charge of armed groups at dusk between day and night.

Osamu Dazai was not very happy to be dragged out by his best friend Oda Saku, and went to investigate along the route according to the information in the power of attorney, and wanted to go to the place where there were eyewitness testimony to see if there were any clues.

The other side.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was driven out for a walk by his sister because he has been staying at home recently, wearing a long gray trench coat with a scarf around his neck, which was slightly raised to block his face——as a great writer who has been in the limelight recently, although he said It's not as easy to be recognized as a star in the entertainment circle, but he is still a celebrity to some extent. Akutagawa, who doesn't want people to disturb him, uses this method to slightly cover up his appearance, and then instinctively reduces his sense of existence.

He doesn't like places with many people, so it's the most worry-free to walk along the river where there are basically no people coming.

Akutagawa just bought some snacks in a cake shop and was holding them in his hands. He planned to go home after a while. He sat on the stairs between the road and the river, looking at the sky and distracted.

Yunjuanyunshu, and occasionally birds entangled and jumped over.

A soft meow sounded from beside him, attracting Akutagawa's attention.

He turned his head and accidentally found their three-flowered cat.

Kinnosuke is a liberal cat—that’s what Akutagawa Ryunosuke calls it. It has to go out for a while every day, like a hard-working parent who leaves early and returns late. Before going out, he still knows how to say hello and ask Akutagawa to open the door for him. Very spiritual.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke likes cats, and after living together for such a long time, Kinnosuke is no longer just a cat in his heart.

But a member of their family.

"Are you going home, Kanonosuke?"

Akutagawa's calm cat conversation is like talking to an old friend: "Today seems to be much earlier than usual."

"Meow~"

Jin Zhisuke yelled, took a step, walked to the young man and squatted down, tilting his head.

"I was kicked out by Yin, and she asked me to go out for a walk." Akutagawa replied, "I'm killing time now."

"Meow~"

"Kinnosuke wants to go home first?" Akutagawa asked, and the young man with dark eyes also tilted his head and thought for a while: "By the way, if I go home with you, Gin won't say anything, right? The reason is that I met you on the road, so I went home early."

"Kinnosuke, can you?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke stretched out his hand to his cat and asked seriously.

Kananosuke swung his tail, his round cat eyes and the young man looked at each other for a while, then, as if defeated, he shook the tips of his ears, looking at his own unsociable and introverted child, and looked at the young man. His little paw rested on the young man's outstretched hand.

"Thank you."

Akutagawa softened his eyebrows a little.

The black-haired young man bent down a little, let Jin Zhisuke jump on his shoulder, then picked up a bag of snacks in his hand, stood up, and planned to go home along the river.

After walking not far, he suddenly heard a shout of Zhan Weiwei.

"Stop, stop—!"

Although he sensed someone running towards this side, Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who didn't take it seriously because his breath was too weak, didn't react at all.

Akutagawa didn't stop until he was sure that the breath was approaching his position, turned his face to the side, and looked over there indifferently.

The person who came was a young man... not too young, about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Silver hair, one side long and one short, and unique purple-gold eyes, a bit like Leo Apache in the Bugarati team in a different world, but obviously, the teenager in front of him is much better than the former policeman Appa Ji Yao is much slender, wearing a set of off-white clothes—a bit dirty, but the fabric is surprisingly good. He thought he was a child from the slums, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.

Akutagawa thought about it with just one glance, then stood quietly on the spot, waiting for the other party to speak without saying a word.

The other party's face was full of confusion, as if he was in a very nervous psychological struggle, the boy clenched his fists, bit his lower lip and stared at Ryunosuke Akutagawa's face.

"Hand over the valuables on you!" The young man finally stammered, although he tried hard to show a fierce expression, but there was no deterrent force: "Otherwise, I, I... I will attack you!"

Akutagawa: "..."

The author has something to say: (a weak, pitiful and helpless Dun who was kicked out of the orphanage for several days without food and forced to rob passers-by.jpg)

Dundon: ...I must have been an idiot at that time, and I must have left a very bad impression on Mr. Akutagawa, wow! (furry and self-closing).

Jie Jie: ...I have never seen such a fresh and refined way of robbery, even people in the slums would not do it!I really want to teach him how to rob correctly (hello?).

It's the new double black debut on the same screen!

There are still five months to choose the Akutagawa Award, so let's go through the combination first XD
