COSER, I became the leader of despair

Akutagawa felt that this was a perverted act almost like stalking, and he couldn't bear it at all.He almost wanted to have a big fight with the man in front of him, but the heavy feeling in his heart made him unable to say a word.

He decided to part ways with this man.

"Don't worry about us~" Xi Jianzi said goodbye to the other party in a light tone, and the man in black left quickly.And Akutagawa's confidence in doing this is that he knows that the two people in front of him will not run away.There was no escape thought on their faces.

Even if he wants to escape, Akutagawa Ryunosuke can guarantee that he can kill the two fleeing in the dark.

Although he had fought with Atsushi Nakajima before, he believed that if he tried his best and squeezed out his life, he would be able to achieve a commendable "miracle".

A "miracle" is the act of pushing the limits.

Xi Jianzi watched the other party go away, his figure was ethereal in the summer wind.

Her mood became a little happier.

"Dun, let's go on—"

Xi Jianzi noticed something was wrong, and Dun was not by her side.I don't know when it started, the child who always appeared in front of everyone as a timid and humble image suddenly disappeared.

He was still there before meeting Osamu Dazai.

Xi Jianzi squeezed the piece of graffiti paper in his hand, deeply sighing in his heart.

Is there such a thing as what you gain and what you lose?

She doesn't quite believe it.

In this way, isn't she the only one?

Xijianzi felt the mood of a lonely man a little bit.

Heck, if only Alice was with her or something.

Unfortunately this is not possible.

Unless Xuehua Qijing is willing to bear the blame.

It's just...that's still a weird kid.

We are all awkward children.

What a distressing event.

Xi Jianzi, who was like an old father, clicked his tongue twice, then rolled up the help book like a scribbled paper, and walked towards the crooked address mentioned above.

Akashima's house...

This is destined to be a detective vs. "detective" occasion.

Although Mori Ogai is essentially a doctor, Xi Jianzi feels that even if the other party is a "detective", it can be achieved.

****

Akashima Ayu, 12 years old.The middle school student looked at the men and women his mother had invited to investigate those matters, with an extremely displeased expression on his face.The child's emotions are very revealing, so as long as he takes a glance from a distance, Osamu Dazai can discover the gloomy temperament on the child's face that has not dissipated for a long time.

Obviously still a junior high school student.

Osamu Dazai bent his eyes and waved his limp arms towards the opponent.

"Good afternoon, sister sweetfish—"

Akashima Ayu frowned tightly, she did not welcome this strange man and woman at all.She was angry like a little girl for a while, then ran to her room, locked the door, and didn't care about anything.

Yoshino let out a helpless sigh, "Dazai, not everyone is going to like you."

Osamu Dazai waved his hand.

"Well."

Akashima sparrow invited the two of them to sit down in the living room.

"Would you like tea or coffee? Tea is only black tea."

Osamu Dazai ordered black tea, and Akiko Yosano had coffee.

By the time the black tea and coffee were served, Osamu Dazai had already scanned all the decorations in the living room.

Very ordinary household furnishings.

There is also a family photo on the bookshelf.

"Can I take a look at this?" Yosano Akiko thought that Dazai would take it directly to read - he is usually a casual person, but at this time he is asking for Ms. Akashima's permission.

Akashima sparrow was taken aback, "Please do."

So the photo album was in the hands of Osamu Dazai, and the photos showed the Akashima couple and their children.But when he turned the photo over, five names appeared on the back.

"Shinji"

"bird"

"Ayu"

"Moon Island"

"lotus"

There is no doubt that Shinji refers to the male host of the family, Akajima Shinji, and only the name of the male host will be placed on the top.

The daughter is Ayu, and the son is Tsukishima.

"This lotus, is it?"

There was a sadness in Akashima sparrow's eyes.

"That was originally the second child in our family, but it was not born because of an accident..."

"Sorry." Osamu Dazai withdrew his frivolous face.

But no matter which face it was, it wasn't his real face.

Yosano Akiko took out a small notebook for recording and an expensive pen from her wallet.

"Please tell us about Tsukishima."

The mother's memory of the dead child is nothing more than "very naughty" and "a good boy".

For dead children, mothers (with Yosano's belief) beautify their past experiences.

Akashima Ayu was lying on the bed, and she covered her face with the quilt.As long as this is the case, she will not see the outside world.

There was a knocking on glass outside her room.

At first Ayu thought it was a sparrow or something jumping, but the beating sound lasted for a while.She poked her head out of the quilt in doubt, but saw a man climbing on the window of her room.

Ayu was so startled that she wanted to scream, but what stopped her from screaming was a piece of paper pressed by a man on the glass.

It was a "power of attorney" written by herself and then posted.

When Ayu put the man in, the man started blowing on his hand like he was jumping.

"It hurts to death, it hurts to death, I thought I would fall from the window just now." The man looked terrified, but his expression was extremely lazy, it didn't look like he was almost in danger of death just now.

Ayu looked uneasy at the man who was much taller than herself, "That, that!" She mustered up the courage to ask if the other party came to help her find her [brother], but the man spoke first .

"Your name is Ayu, right?" Xi Jianzi confirmed.

Ayu nodded, "I'm Akashima Ayu." Probably wanting to get help, she tried hard to say her name aloud.

Xi Jianzi thinks the other party is very cute.

"Then come and tell me about your brother."

……

Osamu Dazai was a little bored.

The woman in front of her has already told how loving she and her husband have been for a long time, and what a happy family of four they used to be.If Tong Mo were here, he would definitely say in a sad tone: Everyone's happiness is a self-righteous illusion pieced together alone.It's just that Tong Mo is not here, and Osamu Dazai doesn't know Tong Mo, so he can't understand such delicate words. t

His sensitive heart quickly sensed something was wrong from Akashima sparrow's words, and he greeted all the words thrown by the other party with a hypocritical face.

"Hmm..." After listening to Akashima Sparrow's words, Dazai Osamu nodded seriously, "According to Ms. Akashima, your daughter Ayu said that she has been seeing her younger brother Tsukishima, and then something strange happened in your family. Frequent. You think it was done by your dead youngest son, don't you?"

This is basically consistent with the previous statement.

But Akashima sparrow murmured: "...I, I."

She was speechless.

"As for me, from my personal point of view, it would be more cost-effective to hire an exorcist?" The woman who opened and closed the book in Yosano Akiko's hand raised her eyes and asked politely .

Akashima sparrow did not accept.

"Please help me investigate!"

She bowed deeply to the two of them.

……

Shi Jianzi was very honored to get a small chair from Ayu.She even believed that if the real Mori Ogai received this treatment, he would be so happy on the spot that he wished to rub the little girl into his eyes.

This is of course an exaggerated adjective.

After all, rubbing such a big girl into the eyes... the eyes of giants must be able to do this.

Thinking of this metaphor, Xi Jianzi giggled a little presumptuously.

Ayu tilted her head and looked at the man who had accepted her commission, she asked, "Can you help me?"

Before, she had told Xi Jianzi about her brother.

"That is to say, brother Yuedao didn't do these weird things?"

Ayu said firmly and resolutely: "Absolutely not! Although Tsukishima loves to play pranks, since that incident happened, Tsukishima never dared to play pranks again." Ayu seemed unable to bear his own sadness, She started crying out of nowhere, and gradually began wiping her eyes with her sleeve.

Xi Jianzi handed her the napkin on the table.

"Your clothes will get wet, Ayu sister."

Ayu wiped his eyes and nose with tissue paper instead.

After the other party's emotions calmed down, Xi Jianzi asked, "What is that matter?"

In her opinion, this kind of event replaced by "that thing" is often the key point.

Ayu pursed his lips tightly.

"That was, three years ago..."

……

"Is this really useful?" Akashima Sparrow watched worriedly as the two investigators installed cameras in her living room.This camera was bought by her husband when he was visiting the second-hand market, and it has been used for some years.

Osamu Dazai fiddled with the camera, "Of course—I mean, maybe." His ambiguous attitude always makes people feel very anxious, and Akashima Sparrow is one of the people who is tortured by this anxiety.But Dazai said to Akashima Sparrow: "Please continue to talk about Brother Tsukishima. Don't stop." His order-like tone made this woman a little unhappy, but a woman who was harassed by the "evil spirit" and was physically and mentally exhausted , I only hope that the investigators can really help their mother and daughter solve the incident.

"Tsukishima is my child who was born prematurely. I had a hard time giving birth to him, and I lay in the delivery room for ten hours..." When the woman described the birth and past of the child Tsukishima in a melancholy tone, Osamu Dazai and Yosano exchanged glances.They originally wanted to use infrared equipment, but the current conditions did not allow it.

"He used to be very naughty, but then he didn't like to talk to others, and he didn't want to go out to play. Yuedao had a lot of illnesses, not serious ones, but minor ones."

"Your physical fitness is poor." Yu Xie Ye answered.Although it is a woman, it is stronger than Osamu Dazai, and it undertakes the important task of carrying the video recorder from the warehouse to the living room.Who doesn't say a word after watching it?

Akashima sparrow said stubbornly: "No, Yue Dao is a healthy child."

"The doctor always asked Tsukishima to go out to exercise or something, but the child stayed at home all day. Once I asked him what he wanted to do at home, and Tsukishima told me that he wanted to make his mother happy."

"I was so happy at the time... Tsukishima is a good boy, why did he leave me and his sister?"

The VCR is already set up.Osamu Dazai looked out the window, it was getting dark.

"Yeah. I see."

"Before then, let's go out and have a meal first."
