[Bungo Stray Dogs] Snus

Someone suddenly visited the detective agency today.

Although the detective agency has three or two people who want to entrust various things every day, occasionally there will be nothing. Not everyone in Yokohama is in trouble, and of course they are not the only detective agency.

It's just that this person was wearing a high-end black suit and was carrying a heavy-looking briefcase in his hand. He didn't know what was stuffed in it, and it was already larger than the tools carried by ordinary office workers.

And he is not a young man, but an old man with frosty temples, fine lines and brown age spots at the corners of his eyes, but he looks extremely energetic.

With a tan fedora in one hand, he entered politely and calmly, bowing slightly to everyone in sight.

When Atsushi Nakajima saw him, he froze in place as if he had been immobilized, and Kyoka, who was holding tea, was even more wary.

Kunikida, who was still sitting on the seat just now, stood up in surprise at this moment, and confirmed with a slightly trembling voice. "Are you Mr. Ishida?"

Young people like Junichiro Tanizaki and Kenji Miyazawa may not have any impression of the word Ishida, but when Kunikida called out this name, they couldn't help but wonder if it was the previous client or the one who produced it. Master of Notebooks.

Oda Sakunosuke, who was digging for words, also raised his head. Although he didn't know this person, he still cast his gaze over him.

The ordinary-looking old man just smiled. "I'm here to find the president here, Mr. Fukuzawa." The other party explained slowly.

He didn't introduce himself positively, but he didn't deny Kunikida's words. Instead, he directly asked Fukuzawa. Obviously, his affairs were not something ordinary detectives could handle.

Kunikida nervously said wait a moment, then asked Naomi to ask someone to sit down on the other side of the sofa and serve tea, while he knocked on the door of the president's office.

Ishida scanned the people with different faces in the detective agency with his eyes, and finally fixed his gaze on a certain figure, with a brown fedora pressed on his chest.

he greeted cordially. "Nakajima-kun, Kyoka-kun, the boss asked me to say hello to you on his behalf."

One sentence directly froze the atmosphere in this space, and even Naomi's movements became stiff. This old man who looked like a client turned out to be from the port, which they did not expect.

After the greeting card was sent, they were a little worried, not because they felt that they were defeated by the port, but because they always felt that there was some trick to the port, which had been quiet for a long time.

Not to mention that downstairs, they saw the mafia that was monitoring them in an upright manner. The simple and honest member Xianzhi had offered to say hello before. At that time, everyone was prepared for the possibility of being attacked.

But the other party just responded normally, and then continued to stare.

Now the patience of the port is beyond their imagination, and they feel that there is some conspiracy behind it.

Before Ishida sat down on the sofa, the door of the president's office was opened, and Fukuzawa Yukichi in a haori came out, and he came to Ishida. "Hello, Mr. Ishida."

The tone is also very polite.

Ishida just nodded and sat down, waiting for the black tea to be served by Naomi, Fukuzawa also looked at him and said. "I didn't expect the trump card of the special search department to join the port."

Obviously he just heard that sentence.

Kunikida was on the side, talking about science in a low voice for the others. "That one used to be the head of the Special Search Department under the Public Prosecutor's Office."

"I didn't join the port, but I just accepted the invitation of Mr. Ogai and provided him with some small opinions as his legal adviser. This can be regarded as disobedience after retirement. After all, what I did before is very impressive. hated."

Hearing the voice from over there, Kunikida couldn't help but get complicated. Although he knew that the other party had retired, he never expected to go to the port.

Fukuzawa Yukichi didn't have any opinion on what he said, he looked at him like an ordinary person, but after the other party expressed his position, he had to ask the other party's intentions. "Are you here today for the port?"

If so, it may have something to do with that greeting post.

Ishida seemed to be reminded by this sentence, he picked up the briefcase leaning against the foot of the sofa, unzipped it, took out the documents from it, and handed it to Fukuzawa.

But too many were handed over at once, so they could only be placed on the coffee table first. Fuze took the topmost document and started to read it.

"Actually, I didn't come here for the port. Our current BOSS is very assertive, although the previous boss was also very assertive. But I only came here for Morita Pharmaceuticals."

"Some time ago, one of your company's members, Akutagawa Ryunosuke, broke into the office building of Morita Pharmaceuticals and damaged various hardware equipment and buildings. Later, some members of the company did some damage to the building, causing losses to Morita Pharmaceuticals. It also seriously hampered the company's operations."

Ishida took a sip of tea and moistened his throat. "I came here this time to ask President Fukuzawa whether he intends to settle out of court, or to defend himself in court?"

The matter brought by the legal adviser of the port mafia can be summed up in two words, 'lawsuit'.

The mafia wants to sue the detective agency?

If this sentence is said, outsiders may not believe it. The notoriety has spread throughout Yokohama, even if it has subsided a little in recent years.

But the mafia is the mafia, they are as hateful as those street gangsters and gangsters, they are the scum of society.

If there is a lawsuit, the loser will definitely be worse than the Halloween costume.

The members of the detective agency who eavesdropped in the back were also very surprised, but it was more of a disorder. Shouldn't you just smash the door here at the port and take revenge?

Just like the countless urban legends they have heard about the city's dark night, what the hell is the out-of-court settlement and in-court defense.

Are you still the Mafia we know?

"Is the port mafia going to sue us?"

Fuze wasn't sure about his authenticity. The extremely detailed list of compensation for damaged items in his hand gave him a bit of a headache.

I am not an accountant, but I know how serious the total number of zeros written on the last page is, let alone other things.

The top one of the documents piled up on the coffee table at this moment also stated the economic losses caused by the disruption to the company's operations.

There must have been various data listed in it, and the man who brought these unbelievable documents to him was once one of the group of people who probably knew the most laws in this country.

The Armed Detective Agency has not compensated for some damages during the work process until now. It's not that they don't compensate, but that the client will bear part of it.

The work they deal with is also very dangerous. Considering various situations, the local government will also bear part of it.

And the detective agency has been commended many times by the city government.

The port mafia does not use force to use the law. What kind of development is this?

The old man on the opposite side just smiled authentically. "It was Morita Pharmaceutical who wanted to sue the detective agency. It can be said that Morita Pharmaceutical bought the place where the attack happened that night."

"Mr. Fukuzawa, you may not know this company well. Although it does not rank among the top ten companies in China, it has attracted much attention in Yokohama. In the past few years, it has entered the Medical equipment industry. It is estimated that before this, you still think that it may be a small workshop for money laundering at the port, but unfortunately, it is a very formal listed company."

When the mafia starts a company, the first reaction to the police is money laundering. Some government departments also know about it, but they can't do anything because they can't grasp the evidence.

Fuze pursed his lips, he didn't know much about these. "According to the regulations, it is forbidden for triads to establish new firms." He tried to deny it from the other party's point of view.

Ishida used to be a member of the special search department. Even though he looks like an ordinary old man now, the fact that the other party can produce these things proves that he has collected evidence, and some of the money listed are very real.

The person the other party has faced before is not only himself, the silver wolf, even the prime minister has been dragged out of office.

It is almost impossible to catch any loopholes.

Fuze couldn't help but think of the underground doctor who sat in a little messy clinic, directed himself to carry all kinds of equipment that couldn't be named, and always called himself "Your Excellency Fuze".

"It seems that President Fukuzawa has a clear understanding of the legal knowledge about gangs."

Do not,

I don't know.

The knowledge was instilled inadvertently in his former bodyguard work, that underground secret doctor always liked to deal with everything around him in a more reasonable way.

If the doctor was still alive, he would be able to understand what was going on with this somewhat absurd out-of-court settlement and in-court defense.

For the port leader who controls a huge violent organization, if the mafia's methods cannot handle it, he can go to the government department. Such a choice can still be easily made.

Because what the other party values ​​is not the leadership, but the management like an enterprise, like a business, and even the relationship between people can be managed.

This is the coldness of the other party, and it is also something that I cannot bear.

It's just that I didn't expect that after the death of the other party for many years, there would be someone inside that behemoth who would think of such a way to deal with it.

Perhaps this is the reason why Ishida was dug out. The leader changed, but the influence still exists. There is always the figure of the other party in the dark night of Yokohama.

"But I think you know the legal person of that company, Mr. Morintaro, who used to be a military doctor in this country."

The memory was opened before the name was uttered. It was Morin Taro, not himself, who was respectfully called Ogai's name after he met him, but this name was written in the military department record.

And they all said to themselves that the founder of this company was a person with a military rank, and even a military background, or a background in the National Defense Agency.

Bad handling.

Fukuzawa Yukichi no longer chooses to continue reading. He has a headache looking at those data and information, especially those amounts with many zeros hanging on them. He hardly needs to think about it. It is estimated that ten detective agencies will not be able to compensate.

If the other party can bring it up, they must have deduced countless things that may happen later.

And these documents are also saying 'we continue in another way', at this moment the arming of the armed detective agency has become meaningless, because the opponent has given up violence.

But this also shows that the current port has no spare capacity to deal with their affairs. Fukuzawa glanced at the new members over there. "What do you want?"

There is still room for negotiation

Ishida smiled unabated. "Actually, I don't know what the boss wants. I haven't seen him recently. However, I think he will reconcile with the detective agency."

"reconciliation?"

He wouldn't believe these two words. Akutagawa's behavior was directly drawn in the face of the port. Judging from the behavior of the port in recent years, it is impossible for them to reconcile.

And two more members came to them.

"Yes, this is the will of the previous generation, the leader who jumped off the building. He said so on my side before. The current leader is good at everything, especially when it comes to respecting others. No matter who they are, they should have There will be some dignity."

The one who jumped off the building.

Fukuzawa frowned tightly, and the other party's voice could not be said to be very respectful.

"Of course, judging from the situation at the scene, there is no evidence that the other party jumped off the building voluntarily. Even a heinous mafia leader is still recognized as a citizen under the law." Ishida said so nonchalantly.

But in Fukuzawa's ears, he felt that the other party's words were extremely frivolous, and he almost didn't say bluntly, "I can send all the troublemakers on your side to jail".

If you can use it, use it, even in the matter of death, Fukuzawa felt that the other party's behavior was extremely familiar, so he lowered his eyelids. "Then, I look forward to my meeting with the current chief."

"That's probably what happened."

At night, in the old tavern that looked like a badger's lair, Oda described it like this, with sadness in his words.

Perhaps because the things described in the words happened in the place where he worked, such worries were inevitable.

Not to mention, the object of the narration is another party involved in this incident.

But in Chuya's eyes, this member of the detective agency always has a kind of unreasonable sadness in his eyes, and this kind of sadness seems to always exist in his body, and it is not just caused by this incident. of.

"Speaking of which, why did we meet in this kind of place? I feel a little incredible to be able to communicate like this." Oda rubbed the wine glass in front of him, like talking nonsense after drinking too much, with some The ambiguity of raving.

Some of them seem to be talking to themselves.

But in fact, he only drank half of the glass, but Chuya, who was dressed in formal attire beside him, had flushed cheeks and appeared drunk.

He dragged his cheeks with his hands, his blue pupils seemed to glisten under the dim yellow light. "It's unbelievable for friends to drink together." He took it for granted.

"Could it be that you are a person who treats the other party with colored eyes just because the other party is a mafia or someone with unequal status?" There was a little slack in Chuya's words, which also softened the bitterness in his words.

It’s just that the speaker didn’t mean it, but the listener meant it. Oda felt that this sentence was like a knife piercing his memory. He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, only the ice cubes in it made a crisp sound when he put it down. Noisy.

"...I have had...before, colored eyes."

"Haha, that should be inevitable, Oda-kun, we are a mafia, even a child would tremble without knowing me."

"No, I'm not that kind of kid. Although I thought it was forced by the situation at the time, I found out afterwards that I might have hurt him." He buried his head in his arms, and the picture that seemed to want to be seen appeared again and again in his mind. crying face.

Oda took out his notebook from his pocket with the other hand and handed it over. "Can you use the favor you left last time to tell me about this stranger?"

"Perhaps as you said, friends drinking together, this kind of tavern has the atmosphere where you can make friends casually, or it is the place where you can let go of your identity and chat casually. And when I saw each other that night, It's a mood not suitable for entering a tavern."

"Just like I want to understand the world I live in, I also want to understand this friend who I have never met before who showed me unreasonable kindness that night. I want to understand the other party, why does he call me Oda Zuo? I want to know why the other party said those words that night, and why they showed that expression. Chuya-kun, you can understand this as the writer's curiosity, impulse, and interest."

"For me now, that man is no longer a dangerous enemy, a port leader who is feared by others, but a person who is hidden deep in the mist, and I want to understand him."

It seemed that knowing him would allow him to truly grasp the pen of reality. At this moment, he felt that thinking like this was extremely despicable. While thinking of the other party, the hand holding the pen holder was also eager to move.

And the book that I just wanted to write in my heart seemed to have taken shape.

And that rudiment is hidden in the dim light of the tavern, in the mist formed by the words that I cannot understand, and in the endless night of Yokohama.

Zhong also picked up the leather cord that bound the note, and flipped through the paper inside.

The dim yellow dyed by the light is covered with dense black small characters, and the ink colors linked together depict stories that touch people's hearts.

He turned to the back, and there was an unbearably pitiful voice in his ears, speaking so softly, as if he was whispering.

'In the original world, we were good friends, we toasted and drank here, and there was endless talk between us. '.

Like a plot in a story, he can feel the unfolding of a difficult story and facts in the pen of the unknown writer of the Newcomer Award.

The writer named Oda is chasing the pen of reality, while he is opening the black box called truth.

The conversation between Oda and Dazai is very short, and it may involve some things that happened at that time, or the latter did it on purpose.

If you just look at Oda's reaction at the time, it is understandable that the other party focused on Akutagawa's affairs, but if you write it down like this and read it over and over again, you will find some problems.

This is probably why the other party wants to know.

Because the amount of information contained in this note is too huge, Zhong also knows very well that he is not a person who is good at thinking, and reading this content feels like reading a story.

Still a bit of a sci-fi story.

He put down his notes and made a gesture to the bartender for more drinks. "Oda-kun, I can't describe to you what kind of person this guy is, because I don't know him very well. But—"

As soon as Chuya's voice changed, Oda turned his head and looked at him with one exposed eye.

He raised the corners of his lips. "You can ask him yourself."

Oda straightened up, looking a little astonished. "Is he still alive?"

Nakajima and Kyoka's description of that person has been ambiguous even to the end. Akutagawa only said that the other party jumped off the building, and the old man from Ishida also said that the other party left a will.

In fact, on that night, the other party also bid farewell here.

He thought that the man Dazai Osamu was dead.

Zhong also swirled the liquid in the glass. "Detective agency member Oda Sakunosuke-kun." He smiled at his drinking buddy. "I have a commission, do you want to accept it?"

——I am not the leader I have chosen to be.

The ink-colored pen words were connected together, but only this sentence was burning his heart.

The author has something to say: Actually, I really like Mori Ogai, although everyone thinks he might be a lolicon.

There is also a kind of feeling that everyone has towards Dr. Xie Ye due to his past...

To be honest, the past with Dr. Xie Ye would drive anyone crazy, especially when she was just a naive and cute little girl. She changed from an angel to an angel of death. The most fatal blow was Li Yuan. Brother committed suicide in front of his own eyes.Why do you say this is the deadliest thing? In fact, in the past, I think it is easy for the two of them to have a good impression of each other. Don’t get me wrong, the good feeling is pure good feeling. The innocence, cuteness and straightforwardness in Liyuan's brother can easily remind Liyuan's brother of his younger brothers and sisters, and there is also the important act of saving and treating. He and Xie Ye have undoubtedly become the driving force for him to continue fighting, but he just didn't expect to keep fighting. Fighting, constantly being injured, and the end of the battle line seems to have no end. Making butterflies, it can be seen that he is a gentle and emotional person, and such a person is the most vulnerable to blows, and is also likely to die of pain.

And Xie Ye was behind the front line, and the battlefield was full of rough men. The only woman he could see was Alice. At that time, Alice was not a loli, but a mature woman dressed as a nurse, and she had supernatural powers.So what Xie Ye was facing was a group of adult men who had survived the battle, and Li Yuan's brother was very different among this group of people.Not to mention that this little creamy boy still reads, is polite, praises her, and gives her butterflies. Even if he resists this place, he has a reason to persist.

And the young Dr. Xie Ye is also slowly adapting to this place, and gradually becomes a strong girl from that innocent girl from the title of angel to the angel of death.Although there was also Mori Ogai who accelerated the process, for example, when she refused, he shot on the spot and caused fatal injuries, forcing her to go in and treat this behavior.

This process is painful, whether it is the healer or the healed, and the last straw is that Li Yuan's brother himself chooses to end this number of people.

I saw a very interesting quote today, 'When you feel like you want to die, you don't really want to die, you just don't want to live like this. ', when I saw it, I really felt that way.

Life and death are relative. If you don't have the concept of life, you probably won't understand the concept of death. Suicide is a physical act, and what ends is also life on the physical level.

In fact, I think Zai's jumping off a building is not the same feeling. Before, I was also wondering what Zai's suicide was. Although most of the characters in Wenhao can be labeled as wild dogs, there are also different types of wild dogs.Nakajima is answering his own life. He lives and struggles. His life is in a shadow, so he wants to get rid of it, because he is shrouded in shadow no matter on the original line or the IF line, and he still has There are two layers of shadows, one is the dean, the other is the beast under the moon (theatrical version), IF line, I really think it is difficult for him to get rid of, because the death of the dean was changed to being killed.Kunikida is pursuing justice, and even the ruthless Mori Ogai is practicing the three-quarter concept.

Zai is empty, he is empty, although he has played the most, mysterious, has a story, and the character design is very powerful, especially Su.But in every story, he appeared as a universal tool man when other people couldn't handle the matter.So, as readers Yokohama citizens said, the feeling of being lost.

And in Bungo Stray Dogs, I felt that he was really alive when he was 15 years old. He made his own choice. Although he said badly that he wanted Chuya to be his dog, he said very bluntly, "I I really like you like this', just like the sentence described in the original book, I'm a bit dazed, this expression is surprisingly, no matter what kind of Dazai has been seen before, it looks more like a teenager, a child's expression that matches his age .And I think this kind of expression will always exist after Chuya, the existence that surprised him, appears.This idea is not aimed at Jae on the IF line.

As for the reason why the IF online Jae expands the port power, I think it is still the original text. Everything he looks at is regarded as an enemy. Although he was taught by Mori Ogai, I think his behavior has deviated from it at this moment. Mori Ogai's teachings.

Just going back to the topic of Mori Ogai, I can only say that if Dr. Yosano and Dr. Yosano were not there at the time, although I don’t know what was fighting at the time, I can be sure that more, more, and more people will die, and Not to make that group of people suffer.Although what Dr. Sen did at the time was cruel, I personally feel that during that period of time, that unstoppable battle line also affected his whole being. Of course, the impact was good or bad. From her point of view, regardless of the influence or not, Mori Ogai is a past full of pain and darkness for her, and she always has thoughts about herself. This idea is not a bad idea, but a use.

Correct.

Mori Ogai is a person who makes the most of his use. For his own purposes, he even uses himself. Even if he is in danger, or kills Fukuzawa Yukichi, he does not hesitate. Judging from the battle of abilities, I feel that the president is on the weak side. I don't know if my memory is wrong.

To be honest, I really think that Natsume Soseki's diamond-polishing and three-cut concept is a bit problematic, and now that the Hound has reached an important position at the national level, it can be seen that if Bungou Stray Dogs involves political thinking, Asagiri may control it I can't help it, and if I describe why Zai is desperate, he may not be able to control it, but it shouldn't be involved.

It should be said that Zhongye's current plot development has gotten out of control... Being imprisoned in the book is simply an act of subjugation. Is it true that his body is a hat?

Okay, stop nagging.

I like Yosano and Mori Ogai, but Alice is the cutest, so I like it the most

Another sentence, it is normal for gangsters to call the police now, violence can't solve anything, after all, times have changed

correct.

By the way, part of Zhongye's personality is actually a manifestation of the extreme way of the island country, that is, the style of being a chivalrous man. They are also known as people of benevolence and righteousness, and benevolence and righteousness also include many aspects in the extreme way, so I won't go into details here.

Ren Xia’s traditional Ren Xia Dao has two aspects—righteousness and human feelings.

If you think about it this way, it is easy to understand the various excellent qualities and charisma of Chuya.
