As a background board, I want to pursue Dazai

On the small road in the middle of the two streets, there is a door at the narrow middle entrance, and a light board hangs high outside the door, with an inconspicuous light above it, which is not eye-catching at all in the night scene when the lights are on.My destination is here—it’s not a place full of secrets. When I opened the door, two narrow bars came into view.

Dazai was sitting there with his chin resting on one hand, his eyes fixed on the tall and low wine racks behind the bartender.

There was no one around him, so I chose to sit in an empty seat instead of being by his side.

"Good evening." I said the necessary opening remarks, and then asked, "What should I do next?"

"Have a drink," he said.

……

……

Jumping the time back to that night again, after the on-site work was finished, it was already after twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. It was already very hard for me not to be defeated by sleepiness, and I had to devote my energy to care about Mr. Dazai's movements , It can be said to add extra work to yourself.

Then, we were sent to another location by the police, and I almost fell asleep in the car.The next day, we went to reclaim our personal belongings. After finding the miraculously intact manuscript paper, I almost regained my energy like a clockwork spring.

It was Kunikida who handed over the paper to me. He was busy with the police, and he was very tired right now.

"It's great to find it." I picked up the manuscript paper gratefully, "Mr. Kunikida should also pay attention to his body and combine work with rest."

"If you don't handle the work in place, you won't feel relaxed for a while." Although his words gave people a harsh feeling, I knew it was not because he had any opinions on me. His next sentence was: "You too, I listen It is said that many people will forget to sleep and eat because they are too devoted to writing, although I can understand it emotionally, but I don’t agree with it.”

"Thank you, Kunikida-san."

It seems that he is not as good at talking nicely as I am.

In addition, there is another thing that is beyond my expectation. Mr. Hongren is not only a demon exorcist, but also a god examiner.

"The sword under my command has temporarily returned to Shizheng to perform special tasks." He said, "Although I heard about you from Ms. Ishigami, it is somewhat unbelievable..."

He added: "It's not that I have any prejudice against you, it's just that this situation is very rare. When most swords and swords choose their masters, although they don't express their demands like humans, they have a right in their hearts. Master's criteria for judging... not to mention that Ms. Inai is indeed an ordinary person, so it's rare."

"Isn't Jinjian's excessive consumption of spiritual power due to his appearance in the chaos just now?"

Not only that, he also blocked Miss Qing's swing for me.Afterwards, I didn't hear the voice of Imakim, and I was worried whether he fell asleep by himself due to excessive consumption.

After I told Mr. Hiroto, he nodded: "You are right, you are waiting for the abbot of Yayuan Temple to come back, right? I will call him. If I am not mistaken, the token is a piece of his family. With the scissors left by the ancestors, he made friends with the former owner of the present sword, and the seal left by the former owner can only be broken by his scissors."

Then things went smoothly, Mr. Hiroto called Abbot Tanuma back with a phone call, and immediately unsealed Imken after borrowing the token.

"Is that all right?" I asked.

Nothing special happened like in novels and TV series, so I don't have much confidence in my heart.

"After returning to Yokohama, just find a nearby designated shrine to replenish his spiritual power."

I was relieved to be affirmed by experienced people.

"If Mr. Hiroto is a god judge... which sword does he have?" On the way back, I suddenly thought.

Speaking of his own sword, Mr. Hongren's calm face rarely showed joy.

"He's a bit of a troublesome guy, but he's cute." He said with a smile, "Although he always says he's 'difficult to use, difficult to use', he's more active than anyone else when encountering things...he will probably be back soon Now, let's meet again at that time—he is a guy who is very popular with little girls."

On the way back to Yokohama, I asked Mr. Dazai privately what the complete truth of the case was like.

Although he didn't show embarrassment and immediately refused, but he just raised the corners of his eyebrows a little, and I knew it was useless to pry words out of his mouth.

He was about to give up, but he changed the subject and said, "I'll tell you in a few days, it's not convenient now, anyway, I'm on the territory of the local police."

"How's the wound on the arm?" he asked. "Does it still hurt?"

I raised the bandaged arm slightly, and the fingers of the other hand lightly tapped the bandage.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

Weird.

"I just owe Yi Jun a big favor."

Being teased by him in such an approachable way, I couldn't help thinking about it, and said in a strange way: "Yes."

He was lazily leaning back on the chair, but after I finished speaking, he straightened up abruptly and stood up, with a refreshing but not bright smile, and asked me, "Is there nothing Yi Jun wants?"

I realized that what he said was equivalent to saying "Is there a solution that can repay favors" in a disguised form.

However, I heard that Mr. Dazai always pays on credit at the coffee shop downstairs of the detective agency. If it involves straightforward money transactions, it is still exempted.Besides, let him use physical utensils and other things to make favors with me, and the feelings in the middle will change. In the end, it is not my style to say "I want so-and-so" directly to people, no, it should Say you can't say it, okay...

In the end, I had no choice but to look into his beautiful eyes and rack my brains to search for other solutions that both of us could agree on and that would not infringe or displease the other party's communication habits.

I still seem to be basking in an overwhelming self-satisfaction from the aftertaste of realizing that I've done something beyond my usual courage, after such a big stride or two. Still not gone.And pushing me forward, trying to get me to take the third big step.

Fortunately, I'm not so hopelessly delusional that I can really win people over with just one or two little things.

So I thought carefully and finally came up with a plan.

——As long as a little, I can be very satisfied.

It is time, to be precise, it is the time when he can get along with me accurately in 24 hours a day.

After making up my mind, I started to ask him with a force that was unexpected to me: "Mr. Dazai, are you a drinker?"

"Does Yijun want wine?" He asked lazily.

"I don't know much about wine." I confessed, "It should be said that I just want to start learning about wine."

"Do you want to study wine? Among the clients in the past, there were one or two people related to the wine making industry. If you want to know the detailed process, you can contact them for Yi Jun." He said, "I didn't expect Yi Jun to be interested in wine. , Do you want to accumulate writing materials? Is it possible that the direction of future efforts is social documentary literature?"

Here we go again, Dazai-san always inadvertently, as if joking, his devious tactics.

——Is it an instinctive behavior for him to push others away?

I clearly—

"No." I calmed down, set sail again, and said, "I want to drink, but I don't know anything about alcohol."

"……oh oh?"

"So, Mr. Dazai, can you introduce me to some good places that you think are good places to drink?"

"So...so that's how it is, Yijun!" He seemed to understand something, but I didn't know what he was thinking. His tone was high, and then suddenly fell, and he asked me: "Is it all right?"

No, how can it be.

I was far more greedy than I thought, and once I grabbed what I wanted, I never wanted to let go of anything.It's the same this time.

I said, "That's how it is—Mr. Dazai buys me a drink, is that okay?"

After I finished speaking, I realized that I had made a big mistake.

This sentence sounds like it is going to stick to him, which is extremely annoying.It will give people the feeling of over-invading personal space, and it may make people quite irritable.Not to mention Mr. Dazai, who keeps a distance from others by instinct all the time.

I thought in a daze - this is not good, it is too close.

The previous momentum of rapid progress, it is time to rein in the precipice.Always approaching so intensely will make people want to avoid it-because I also have this kind of reaction myself.

As I was trying to save the scene, I added: "Only one time is enough."

I don't know if he listened to it, but after a while he said: "Okay."

So, things turned out like this.

……

……

Sadly, after doing my homework and copying other people's Google searches for "wine recommendations for first-time drinkers," I found that I was doing nothing more than unnecessary preparation.This kind of apprehension didn't disappear until I walked into the store at the address he gave and saw his back.

He said, "Drink."

"What do you drink?" I said, "What does Mr. Dazai usually drink?" I didn't study alcohol at all, looking at the small blackboard next to it, the names of the alcohol were listed on it like a spell.

"I drink anything."

I looked at Mr. Dazai's profile against the orange-brown background, and thought: Is this really the case?

"Yi Jun is a complete beginner... Then I recommend special cocktails, not only for summer, but also for women."

"...In other words, it must be right to follow the 'recommended menu'?"

——Just like when I was taught to choose ramen.

"More than 90.00% may be safe cards." He said, "As for the remaining [-]%, it depends on the boldness and innovative spirit of the shopkeeper."

"Then try this," I said.

Before I came here, I randomly packed a lot of things in my bag, just like a child who went on a spring outing for the first time. I didn’t know what to pack, so I simply packed all the things I liked and thought I could use.But after all, I am not a child, and I felt that it was too bloated and unattractive when I was halfway through it. Only then did I realize that I actually stuffed the half-written manuscript paper into it.

- What do I want to do?Do you want Dazai-san to read what I wrote?

I suddenly remembered what happened not long ago. In the coffee shop, when talking with Yukimura, we talked about Mr. Dazai's past career, but finally nothing happened.After this incident, I became more and more curious.

Mr. Dazai not only knows about ghosts, but even exorcising demons. To what extent does his communication range go?Is it related to the original job?

Maybe I was so intoxicated with my thoughts that I didn't notice when the wine was mixed.

"What is Yi Jun thinking?"

As soon as he interrupted, I realized that I was too focused on my thoughts.

Anyway, there is nothing that cannot be said, I replied: "What is Mr. Dazai's occupation before thinking about it."

"Ah, this~" he said quite proudly: "My former profession, the bounty offered by the detective agency has already reached 70 yen. Does Yi Jun want to aim for the bonus?"

...the bonus is incidental.

"Can I try to guess the occupation again today?"

He tapped the glass with his finger, as if the gamestart signal was sounded, "Of course—"

"Is it okay to ask questions?"

"So——what does Yi Jun want to ask?" He turned sideways towards me, waiting for my next words.

Hmm... Guessing one by one is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the scope must first be narrowed down.

"...is it an age-restricted job?"

"No."

"Do you need a professional qualification certificate?"

"unnecessary."

"Are there any requirements for physical conditions such as height, weight, and vision?"

"No oh~"

"Is the salary monthly? Daily? Or something else?"

"...Well." He didn't answer decisively this time, but made a thoughtful look, and replied after two seconds: "The settlement of wages is quite confusing, but basically it can be settled monthly or quarterly."

"Annual salary..." Is it convenient to ask?I originally wanted to ask the question according to the amount of the annual salary, but it is not polite to ask, so I changed the question, "Is it higher or lower than it is now?"

"Hiss—what a sharp question, Yijun. But I can tell you, it's taller than it is now."

...is it actually taller than it is now?

Generally speaking, you will quit a job with a higher salary, and there are only a few common reasons - too far away from home, too much overtime, conflicts with the leader... I don't know why Mr. Dazai resigned Lost higher paying jobs.

"Yi Jun asked too many questions." He said, "I can only ask the last one."

It would be great if we can understand the industry. Depending on the industry, the working hours will also vary. Some companies even work almost at night because they want to connect with overseas partners.

"Then... May I ask if it's a day job or a night job?"

The author has something to say:

I finally couldn't hold back my words

Let's play freely (tears)
