[Bungo Stray Dogs] Snus

When Higuchi Ichiyo came to the top floor, before he got close to the office, he heard the leader's angry voice coming from the door that was wide open for some reason.

She hadn't had direct contact with the current leader before this, but some seniors around her would talk about each other.

In the memories that have been gradually washed away by time and become thinner, they talked about Mr. Chuya, who was still a cadre at that time, with laughter and occasionally with longing.

When she first entered the port, she really had a very strange feeling.

Looking at the group of mafia members who are likely to kill a few people as long as they take a gun, maybe everyone has blood on their hands, they are a bit like the crazy fans chasing idols from the outside world.

The overly pure and straightforward yearning in those eyes is similar to admiration, and words like "If Mr. Nakaya is my immediate superior, I would be willing to die for him."

There was really an illusion that she had entered some religious society by mistake, and later she gradually realized that it is easy to say this kind of thing, but the hardest thing to do is to do it.

Because Mr. Nakaya, as everyone calls him, is a person who takes good care of his subordinates. In his work, subordinates with no special abilities rarely have accidents.

And everyone in the mafia who was in the dark, more or less threw away something, but if they were taken care of like this, it would be hard not to die for him.

In fact, no matter how many envious people she heard, or various anecdotes about Mr. Nakaya, she never met him face to face, but there are more and more fanatical fans around her.

The young people who newly joined the port will have some so-called hero dreams, even if such a hero is actually a villain.

But in the hearts of young people, a man who is upright and can stand at the top of the port even without supernatural powers has obviously become their goal in life.

Not to mention that this life goal is easy to arouse people's favor. He has maintained a youthful heart from beginning to end, with a straightforward and sincere personality, gentle and considerate treatment of others, and will not be nervous at all when getting along, and can also heal the body and mind.

If this is a workplace, with such a boss, probably everyone is willing to postpone their get off work time in order to spend more time with each other.

He is a boss at work and a friend after work. For such a person, Higuchi is completely unable to understand why the other party became a mafia.

"How many times have I told you that I can allow the operation of casinos and custom shops, but white fans are absolutely impossible."

"Check it out for me to see who buried this line on our site, and check it out in the organization. Anyone who smokes will be sent to a drug rehabilitation center."

"dong dong"

"Let me inform the group of military and police who are eating nothing, and say that the port will give them a favor, don't ask me questions about whether they need it, give you half a month, and you must bring it to me. Let me tell you, this is Bottom line, port bottom line, my bottom line!"

The angry voice expressed coldness. Although it was accompanied by the sound of knocking on the table, the pair of blue pupils that really looked at it seemed to contain countless storms.

Higuchi felt that the sound was like hitting the eardrums. When she went to the office, she saw that the port members standing at the desk almost shrunk their necks into the ground.

She was a little nervous, but she still knocked on the door, and took advantage of the opportunity to inject new breath into the tense air in the room.

His beautiful eyes like some kind of sapphire swept over him, and Higuchi couldn't help but lower his head, feeling that the heart in his chest was about to jump out. "You go down first, I will arrange for the people from Black Lizard to clean it up for you later."

The member bowed deeply, and then left quickly, Higuchi only saw the black shadow of the other party passing by quickly. "Come in." The voice in the room again had calmed down, as if the anger just now was just her illusion.

The sun's rays came in from the open door, only ten centimeters in front of the desk, whether it was the pile of unknowingly processed documents or the person sitting on the high-backed chair, they were all in a kind of shadow.

Higuchi stepped in, stopped in front of the desk, and some floating eyes fell on that face.

The new leader, Mr. Nakaya, is really young. That kind of youth seems to easily explain where the youthful temperament in his bones came from. The previous leader has been away for a while.

During this period of time, the machine of the port is still operating in an orderly manner under the hastily ascended new leader, which is enough to see the opponent's wrist.

Very contradictory.

Higuchi was puzzled by this contradiction. She had felt in this person countless times the aura that could only be felt by ordinary people outside the port.

But in essence, this person is always in a high position in the night.

"Don't use such a serious expression, did Guangjin talk to you about my looking for you before coming here?"

Unexpectedly, he just mentioned that Guangjin really found him a secretary, even though it was also a woman, looking at the subordinate in front of him in a black lady's suit, he always had a kind of vision of the female investigator who was driving the car that night.

Although the two are not alike, Zhong also chooses to trust his intuition that there may be something similar between the two.

Higuchi nodded, the voice that came out of his mouth trembling slightly due to nervousness.

"Are you a member of the guerrillas?"

This is also quite strange. It stands to reason that he has dealt with the guerrillas the most before, but he has never met them. Is he doing logistics work internally?

When Atsushi Nakajima was the captain, the longest thing he saw was Izumi Kyoka.

In fact, he is also quite contradictory. Izumi Kyoka, who was taken care of by Koyo Ozaki, and the guerrillas are completely two departments. How did the two get mixed together.

And that guy Dazai seems to favor Nakajima very much, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.

Even Dazai had to pay attention to Atsushi Nakajima, so he would naturally pay more attention. Although they had a secret conversation every time, he didn't think there was anything in Atsushi Nakajima.

Not only does he not have the wisdom of Mr. Mori, nor does he have the strength of force like himself, nor does he have the rich experience of Guangjin, nor even the silent assassination skills of Izumi Kyoka.

Most of the time, he is like a kid who doesn't know what he is doing, and he feels very weak.

He really didn't understand what Dazai cared about him, and why Izumi Kyoka came together with him.

The latter can be understood as the emotional attraction between men and women, and such an explanation seems reasonable.

What about the former?Could it be that Dazai likes that kid, thinking of this, Zhong shivered for no reason, this possibility is a bit scary.

Or did you see something on that kid?

And it was this kind of person who was by his side when Dazai jumped off the building. In fact, he was at the port that night, and he was fighting against another boy named Akutagawa from the detective agency.

And Dazai is also in contact with Akutagawa. After learning that the other party has a good supernormal ability, he even captured the other party's relatives and planted a time bomb for today's events.

Why would Dazai do this?

Such behavior seemed completely abnormal to him.

Osamu Dazai has always been cruel in the port, no matter the means or what, because he has a different twist from the beginning of joining the port.

After becoming the leader, his methods became more and more powerful. He didn't think that Dazai would show mercy to hidden dangers, because the other party was actually looking for something in the process of killing people.

Exciting?

It is not incomprehensible.

Perhaps there is still a kind of expectation, which is similar to the attitude towards Atsushi Nakajima, and it is true that when Dazai jumped off the building, these two people were by his side, and they had a big fight before.

"It's just trivial logistics." Higuchi's voice interrupted his thinking, and Nakaya looked over, and the lady was ashamed of herself.

He doesn't know much about Higuchi's work, so he can't comfort him. "I plan to transfer you to be my assistant, do you want to take over this job?"

The lady standing opposite her lowered her head slightly, her brows were furrowed tightly, her facial expression muscles were twitching, and the fluctuations in her heart seemed to have caused her expression muscles to lose control.

She is sometimes tangled, sometimes surprised, but also has a sense of confusion.

Looking at the other party's wonderful expression, Chuya felt a strange feeling in his heart, he always felt that Higuchi should not be like this, how should I put it, it should be more straightforward.

Or to some extent, no matter whether you want to take over the secretary position or the work you are doing now, you should have a kind of enthusiasm.

This intuition is very strange, and because it is too strange, he is also a little confused now. It is impossible for him to say something like 'do you want to be a little more confident', and that doesn't seem like what the leader should say.

It's just that a possibility popped up in his mind. "Higuchi-kun, do you think that you are not qualified for the job here and not suitable for the Mafia?"

Higuchi was startled, the thoughts that had been entrenched in her heart during this period of time were suddenly stripped away, making her unable to control her expression, let alone the leader of the mafia.

She bit her lips tightly, not knowing how to answer, the port is different from other old mafia, and there is no need to cut off the friendship with brothers and sisters when leaving.

But she was still a little afraid of leaving this kind of behavior.

"You don't have to be nervous." The subordinate's breathing became rapid.

Naka also spread his gravity throughout the space naturally, and manipulated the chair placed in the corner to move over. Higuchi looked at the chair that no one touched, but ran over by himself, and was stunned. "Is this a supernatural power?" She said a little dully.

This reaction made Chuuya look at her more.

"Well, I just developed some lazy methods, so that I can move things over without standing up, which is very convenient." There was a narrow smile in his words. "Please sit down."

The chair stopped behind Higuchi, even if he didn't want to sit, he had to bite the bullet now.

Higuchi carefully sat down on that chair, facing the leader's desk. If she ignored the documents on both sides, she had the illusion that she was facing the interviewer.

"I haven't been able to use it." She unconsciously clutched her pants on her knees. "I can't keep up with the captain's footsteps. Sorry, I haven't been able to get used to it. It's Nakajima..."

It is unwise to still call someone who defected from the organization as the captain.

She drooped her head, and her energy seemed to be sluggish.

Zhong also looked at her, he felt quite embarrassing for her. "It's not your problem, Higuchi-kun." He put the document in front of him on his left hand. "Of course it's not trying to excuse you."

When Higuchi was speaking, he raised his head and looked directly at him, Zhong was also a little surprised. In this organization, there must be too many people who would have this kind of reaction.

He recalled the information about Higuchi sent by Hirotsu, and he somewhat understood it in his heart. "If you recall the port of the previous generation, the port of Mr. Hesen's era, you should actually find something."

You can't blame the other party if you don't find it. Thinking in the right place is the safest thing to do at certain times.

"I entered the port... when the former leader was in power." Higuchi shrank his neck.

Zhong also nodded, and that expression, whether it was relief or something, gave her a sense of intimacy. "Okay, let me talk to you directly."

"The biggest difference in the development between the two generations of leaders is the speed. Our former leader developed the port too fast, and this speed is based on his personal wisdom, supplemented by powerful force, that is, superhuman abilities as a deterrent. ongoing."

The other party not only cultivated this machine, but also used the nourishment produced by this machine during the training process to cultivate his optimistic expectations.

"In fact, we are using force to deter, and what we have to do in the future is all business. I suppress you to gain benefits, and you can also cooperate with other forces to get back your own benefits, and even swallow me. The essence In fact, it can be related to business, although this business is a bit dangerous. And the captain you talk about, in this kind of business, is actually nothing at all. Someone I respect said, cultivate subordinates and let them go In the most suitable position, so I don't think you are still suitable for the current position."

Thugs should be in the position of thugs, and people who are good at thinking should be in a position where they can show their ingenuity. He may not have extraordinary intelligence or the ability to know people, but he doesn't think he needs to continue the leadership of the previous generation of leaders. road.

Chuya put his hands on the desk. "And I don't think you are suitable to be my secretary."

Higuchi's heart skipped a beat.

Also take out a file from the drawer on the right. "Higuchi-kun, do you want to take over a new job on my side?" He pushed the document over, and Higuchi Kazuyo quickly reacted and reached out to take it.

Opening the cover, her eyes fell on the paper. As the reading time lengthened, her expression gradually became serious.

Chuya also started to continue to deal with her work. It took some time before Higuchi put down the file, and she still couldn't slow down.

"Is this really going to be handed over to me?" She was a little uncertain.

The file contains the information of a company, which is legal and has achieved good results in recent years. Although it is close to Yokohama, the specific location is closer to Kawasaki.

Like Yokohama, it is also a designated city by government decree. Although it is small in size, it is an extremely fast-growing industrial city.

"This is a kind of vanguard enterprise. You should know that when the first generation leader, the port once did many bad incidents. Therefore, from that time until now, the "top battle" of the national anti-crime has always existed. As a result, it is becoming more and more difficult to do illegal business. After that, Mr. Mori, who took over, started the "going ashore" plan, just like the building we are staying in now. Although it is a port, its external name is Morita Pharmaceuticals. The club, which has multiple pharmaceutical factories under its umbrella, is bound together with large and small cooperative hospitals, and pays taxes to the Yokohama City Government as usual. This place was built by Mr. Mori himself, and we are also legal in terms of free association."

"That can continue to develop Yokohama's landing plan..." Higuchi couldn't help but swallowed his saliva.

The so-called ashore plan is just to support those members who cannot support themselves because they cannot engage in illegal activities.

Although there are also extreme methods, such as murder, but under another legal force, the use of supernatural powers is also legal, because there is that certificate.

At least the murder will be held to the murderer himself, not the organization at all.

In Article No. 20 of the Constitution/Law, it recognizes the freedom of association, so looking at the port as an organization, it does not conflict with the law, and there is no danger of being banned.

In terms of company law, the so-called Morita Pharmaceuticals is also legal and even treated courteously as long as the pioneer enterprise does not evade taxes.

And with the certificate of the ability to open the business, their ability team is also legal.

The only thing that was illegal was the criminal acts committed by individuals within the organization. She tried her best to recall the arrest warrants issued by the military and police, but she could only think that her former captain was on the list, and there was no information about the person in front of her.

Zhong also stretched out his hand and scratched his temples. His action did not look like a leader would do at all. Although the leader is also a human being, it can always be seen that he does have certain behaviors that match his age. "That's what I intend too."

Then he smiled helplessly. "It's a pity that we lost too many people on our side this time, and there are too many people with supernatural powers in Yokohama. Although this is a bit annoying, I hope that the port organization can be stable and no longer radically develop. Go on. Even though it has been established for a short time, it can still become an old brand with heritage.”

If you calculate carefully, he is already the fourth generation.

"Also, I don't know what's going on, this sentence may be a bit funny to say, I always feel that Yokohama is very dangerous."

"Higuchi, there are actually a lot of talents in the port, so I hope that in a safer place, everyone can go ashore for nothing. You know, there are many people who feel that they are hopeless, and they will join The mafia, and then get killed in gang wars, but even if everyone joins the mafia, they still continue to live in a world that they find painful, and I like to watch them live."

"Mr. Sen said that everything he wants to do is to protect this beloved city. Although I don't know why this city makes him feel so pitiful, and he doesn't have that much ambition and desire, but I know , I want to protect you, as long as people are alive, everything is possible, lost homes, we can rebuild, lost money, we can earn back, but lost you, I can't find a way to bring you home."

listen.

What simple words.

It doesn't look like a mafia at all, or something a mafia leader would say.

Higuchi blinked her eyes, she felt that if she didn't blink quickly, it might be bad, "I want to protect you" can't be heard at all.

"But why did you choose me?" She didn't understand, and was even a little scared, not because she was afraid of this sudden new job, but because she was afraid of messing up.

She somewhat understood why those old seniors would say that they were willing to die for this person.

Chuuya tilted his head and smiled at her. "I can feel that you are different from others. You are very strong, but you have not adapted to this environment and become decisive. But it doesn't matter, there is still time to learn and grow. Even if we are all mafia, we are just like ordinary people , you also need to breathe, eat, and relax properly."

As he said, he picked up the pile of documents and joked miserably. "There is also overtime work."

Higuchi was dumbfounded by his action, the corners of her eyes were moist, she stood up. "I will not disappoint your expectations."

She understands why those old seniors would respect this person, if someone can still watch, pay attention, not laugh at, and even encourage you when you are down, desperate, abandoning yourself and living in pain.

Don't you want to actually do something?

But what else can people who enter the port do, so everyone will say that they are willing to die for him, because all they can pay is this rotten life.

But is there anyone who even cherishes your rotten life?

"BOSS."

Seeing the bright smile on this subordinate's face again, Chuya's spirit also relaxed a lot. A smile is always contagious, and he likes such an energetic smile.

"BOSS." Higuchi decided to be bolder. "May I ask why you became the mafia of the port?"

Hearing this question, Chuya was slightly taken aback, his expression became a little dazed, but he quickly realized it.

He let out a long breath. "I didn't become a Mafia in the first place."

"Ugh?"

He smiled, a frank and sad smile. "In the beginning, I just pledged my allegiance to Mr. Sen."

He recalled the past events, those insignificant but full of relaxed comfort seemed to have just happened yesterday, everything was clear and scary. "At the beginning, I didn't know what the port mafia was. Although its notoriety once made the whole of Yokohama fear it. But I was only loyal to that person, and I just realized that the will of the port mafia organization was above that person. I joined the Mafia in a real sense when I was there."

He looked at Higuchi with a strange expression on his face, thinking that this subordinate should still need to be tempered, but the calm expression made him feel good and relaxed. "It's not a secret, but it's the first time I've been asked that question. Many people may think that I have the same reasons as them. But it's a little different for me."

"I was overwhelmed by Mr. Mori's will and consciousness, and I was willing to be driven by him. While being driven, he also personally told me what a leader is, so I still respect and remember his teachings, and practice His career. That's probably why I'm in this position, not just a letter of appointment."

He looked at Higuchi and sighed softly. "And I am not sitting here relying on my own strength, so Higuchi, when encountering difficult things, you must learn to ask for help and rely on it. Anyone outside the port can be your arm, and the port Anyone in the world can also become your strength."

Higuchi always felt that when he said these words, the chief gentleman seemed to have an angry look on his face.

But she left soon after, with a letter of appointment for this new job, determined to do whatever she could to share her worries.

It's just that Chuya was still sitting behind that desk, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and then he punched the desk, squeezing out a few words from his throat.

"That idiot!"

The author has something to say: the word is slaughtered, can Xin Shuanghei do the rat that turns the dead house

It's not that I'm destroying their prestige, but isn't the one who can contend against Mr. Tuo at present?

Although controlling the heartbeat to transmit information is very difficult, but this double black has no IQ, right?Although there are random steps, it is indeed good to investigate cases in random steps, but I always feel that Mr. He Tuo, a kind Russian, is still a little bit worse.

And to a large extent, if the IF online follows the events of the original book, really, I mean really, it is likely that the port mafia will not be able to help.As for why, the reason is that the leader is different. Mori Ogai is cold. I think Dazai would be Mori Ogai if he put aside his feelings and went one step further. But the leader Mori has attachments, and his attachments are Natsume Soseki’s three-quarter conception .Daytime—military police government, etc., dusk—detective agency, night—port (Although I think the three-minute concept is very problematic, after all, Akutagawa had already started bombing attacks in the open and honest period of Mori Ogai, but there was no such thing as a port at that time. Suspicious hold on to the night)

The existence of the three-moment concept is based on peace. This kind of peace can be understood as an equalization of power. The detective agency actually has a sense of daytime. The military and police are too weak, but the spy hounds who really manage things will not be upright In the bright future, anyway, the government department has functions and seems to be able to understand it.

But in the IF line, Nakajima from the martial arts faction ran away, and Izumi Kyoka also ran away. Only the black lizard, Chuya, and Hongye sister were left in the port. Although Zhong could step on a group of them, the balance was broken. Even if the two organizations reconcile, but you don’t have to ask the port for help when you have something to do in Yokohama. Both blacks are there, plus one Oda, the detective agency is in a saturated state of literary and military combat, that is to say, it is Sit firmly in the dusk, but it will still erode day and night. At this time, if you go to a detective agency if you have a problem, even if the two blacks have infinite power and infinite possibilities, the risk factor will also increase infinitely. Oda Saku can still write beautifully. novel?

And I always feel that Zai is overestimating the potential of double blacks. The third generation of double blacks, I only think that the potential of the second generation is unlimited. Zhongye is the ceiling of combat power, and Zai is the ceiling of intelligence. The trust between the two of them is almost invincible. of.There are too many checks and balances.

To be honest, I analyzed it for my own amusement. Chuya in the IF line will indeed die if he turns on Dirt later, but there is a question, whether he will turn it on.May I ask why he opened the filth before, in what capacity and under what circumstances did he open the filth? If he was the leader now, would he still open the filth unscrupulously? One, his existence is undoubtedly the best insurance for the port, and the outside world has to think about it if they want to call them attention.When Mori Ogai was the leader, the will of the organization was above his personal feelings, and when Chuya entered the port, he asked what the leader was. It can be said that after the king of sheep, Zhongyuan Zhong has always been in Mori Ogai In his guidance, although he himself is not as smart as Mori Ogai and Jae, he is undoubtedly more gentle than the two. Although sometimes gentleness can be fatal, I think the fatality for Chuya is that the will of the organization overrides the individual On top of that, he is Chuya of the Central Plains, and also serves as the patron saint of Huangbatu.

It’s so contradictory. I hope that Zhong will continue to live happily, but I always feel that he will become a god on IF online. When I wrote the last article, I actually started to feel that way when I wrote it.

It feels like in the character song of Zhongya, when he is tired, he fantasizes about death, and when he is tired, he feels like when he is no longer slaughtered, although I know that Zhongya will not fantasize about death

Ahhhh! ! ! !

I have the urge to pull Zai's collar and scold him!
