On the Feasibility of Chefs Saving the World

When it comes to "worm eggs", everyone becomes cautious. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Qinghuai decides to immediately go to Citi Street to investigate the situation.

Kunikida Doppo still works in a detective agency, and the second year of high school is also exorcising a small curse outside - spring is here, and the curse is more disturbing than mosquito breeding.So only Qing Huai and Dazai Zhi went to Citi Street to investigate.

Citi Street is the most prosperous area in Yokohama outside the central CBD. It is not just a street, but a group of architectural streets near the river bend. Younv's House and Cowherd's Shop also have small businesses in gray areas.

In addition, Citi Street is also famous for its cherry blossom belt around the river bank. There are clusters of white and pink cherry blossoms, and the flowers will fall into the river with the wind, and the street is full of spring.

During holidays, the total number of daily tourists at the three subway entrances of Citi Street can reach 300 million, which is called Little Shinjuku.

The entire Citi Street is divided into the north and south banks by the river bend. The South Street is the place where men love to search for women, while the North Street is a chaotic residential area. Most of the people staying here are geisha, prostitutes and handymen with very low salaries. personnel, live by renting cheap basements.

There is a stone bridge across the river between the North and South Streets. The locals jokingly call it the "Santu Bridge". People go in and ghosts come out. Most tourists are warned not to cross the bridge to North Street.

The body of the deceased Watanabe Natsuyuki was found on North Street.

Natsuyuki Watanabe is a lecturer in the public computer class of Yokohama Women's University and a counselor for the third year of the Department of Foreign Languages. The salary is not low, and there is usually a lot of spare time, but he often stays in the office to answer students' questions. He has a good reputation in school , according to the students, is a very mature and reliable teacher.

On the surface, this kind of man seems to be both good and talented. Even if he wants to whore, he shouldn't just go to North Street to find a street prostitute. That's not in line with his glamorous identity.

The police's autopsy results showed that Natsuyuki Watanabe had indeed had sex before his death, but unfortunately no outsider's DNA was extracted from the underclothes and skin tissue, so the investigation was in trouble.

"This kind of thing is worse than a beast when it takes off its clothes." Osamu Dazai muttered.

Qinghuai looked at him curiously when he heard the sound, and the two just walked into Citi South Street.

It seems that some activities are being prepared here. There are workers binding posters at the entrance, and the cherry blossoms along the river are covered with bells and red ribbons, a bit like a blessing tree in a temple.

"Excuse me, is there a festival recently?" Qing Huai asked one of the workers.

"Ah, is it a tourist?" The worker uncle bit a nail in his mouth and was vague. "Ten days later, the oiran will be on the way. This year is a new oiran performance. It is said that she is so beautiful, so strange!"

Another worker interjected, "Hey, Nana is going to be so sad that it's her turn this year..."

"Hey, what does it matter to you that Nana is sad?" The uncle spat and nailed the nail into the wall, "Even if you work for another 100 years, you won't be able to enter the girl's house..."

"Oiran Daozhong, what is that?" Qinghuai was puzzled, he had never heard of this Japanese term.

"It's an oiran parade." Osamu Dazai explained, "It originated from the behavior of oirans parading in kimonos in the Edo period. Today's Oiran Road is actually a performance of oiran parades... Citi Street is probably different, After all, it’s a red-light district allowed by the government, so it’s not certain whether it’s really there to welcome visitors.”

Qing Huai understood, "So that's how it is."

The two chatted while walking, Dazai Osamu picked an unopened bud from the cherry blossom tree beside the street and inserted it next to Qinghuai's ear.

The young man tilted his head in bewilderment, his color was too distinct, either white or black, even the color of his lips was ascetic, and the tender pink buds swayed on his cheeks, adding a touch of glamour.

Osamu Dazai coughed lightly, and said solemnly, "Boss, let's go."

"Wait," Qing Huai suddenly grabbed the man, pointed at the shogunate-style building beside him, "go in and have a look."

When Osamu Dazai saw it, it was a magnificent antique building, adjacent to the river bank. Red lanterns were hung on the four corners of the building, and a plaque was hung on it, with the words "Luo Yingju" written.

"...No, I don't think it's better not to go in."

Qinghuai looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that the man was inexplicably guilty, "Go and investigate, didn't you say that? If you want to know the whole picture of the matter, you have to go to the most crowded place to understand the truth from different people."

"I did say so." Osamu Dazai sighed helplessly, "But this is not a restaurant, this is a house for girls."

"Your girl's house?"

"……brothel."

"..." Qing Huai just froze for a moment, "You know it very well."

"..." Osamu Dazai grabbed the young man's arm, "Boss, I really love the party, and I never do that kind of thing!"

"Ah, I understand, you don't need to explain." Qinghuai nodded perfunctorily, "I understand the needs of adults..."

"No, I really—"

"Dazai-kun!" Jiao Didi's voice almost melted people, and a pink figure suddenly rushed over.

Before Qinghuai could see clearly, the black-haired man in front of him avoided, and a very light female body fell into his arms.

Qing Huai: ... so soft.

Osamu Dazai: ...killed her.

Nana quietly raised her head to take a look. She was extremely beautiful, with almond eyes and sweet eyes, round and gentle eyebrows, she was a very pure type.

——Eh, it's not Dazai-kun...but this man is so handsome, it won't hurt to get to know him...

"Yeah." The woman whispered, and was pulled away by the collar.

Osamu Dazai had a displeased expression, and stood in front of Qinghuai with a possessive posture, and sneered, "What's the matter?"

"Dazai-kun!" Nana's eyes lit up instantly, but the tip of her nose and eye sockets turned red in two seconds, and she was about to cry, "Dazai-kun, you haven't been here for a long time..."

Qing Huai whistled expressionlessly, "Wow."

"..." Osamu Dazai's eyes widened, "No, I'm not, I don't, stop talking nonsense, I just drank here!"

Nana suddenly sensed something was wrong, and narrowed her eyes, "Are you two lovers?"

Qinghuai: "No."

"Tsk, don't come here." Nana immediately changed her face, with a hint of arrogance in her eyes, "I've seen many of you like this in the Cowherd's shop next door, it's a lie."

Qing Huai: "..." Could it be that he was born with the face of coming out of the closet?

"Tell me, what are you doing here at Luoying Residence?" Nana turned around, "Come in and tell me."

The two had no choice but to follow You Nu into the store.

Luoyingju is a building with the characteristics of the shogunate. It has stood on Citi Street for more than 30 years. Before the subway station was built here, it has become the largest red light brothel in Yokohama, and it is also the first one recognized by the Yokohama government. legal brothels.

Luoyingju's business scope is much wider than it shows, not only eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, bathing and massage, but also the largest theater in Yokohama, and an underground trading place for some gray businesses.It is said that Luoyingju can dominate the family on Citi Street, and Portmafia is behind it.

In the afternoon, Luo Ying Residence is already lively. Many wealthy people like to invite friends to drink tea and discuss work here.

As soon as Qinghuai entered, she was stupefied by the smell of perfume. There were beautiful young people everywhere, not only women, but also men among them.

"I think you look so pretty, so why don't you work here too? I'll help you discuss with your mother. Eighty-two split, you eight--" Nana turned around suddenly, and said to Qinghuai seriously, "Absolutely, the monthly income is [-] yuan. Up and down, by then, the Cowherd at Luoyingju will be no worse than the one next door!"

"No, he has a job." Osamu Dazai smiled.

"Hey, I didn't ask you again." Nana didn't have the sentimentality she had at the door at the moment, she turned to look at Qinghuai, "Little handsome guy, just ask if you have any questions, anyway, it's okay to be unlucky recently..."

The woman complained a few times, straightened her pink dress, sat on the leather sofa beside her, and elegantly lit a cigarette.

Qinghuai said: "We want to know more about the North Street murder case."

"Well, that..." Nana squinted her eyes, she seemed to be a little short-sighted, she liked to stare at people when she was thinking, "There were indeed a lot of policemen yesterday, I thought the Japanese government finally realized the legality of banning brothels , I am happy for nothing..."

She slightly parted her lips, and exhaled a mouthful of mint-flavored smoke.

"That guy died, he deserved it." Nana sneered, "That kind of beast can't afford Luo Yingju, so it tries every means to trick the part-time kitchen girl in our store to go out to play hooligans, and it won't relieve the hatred if it dies a thousand times or ten thousand times!"

Osamu Dazai pursed his lips. Luo Yingju is the top class brothel in Japan. No matter how good the salary is for a working class like Watanabe Natsuyuki, it is not enough to order a glass of lemonade here.However, what he didn't expect was that that kind of scum would still sexually harass a little girl... Really, death is not a pity.

Nana cursed a few more words, all of which revolved around how scumbag Natsuyuki Watanabe was, and it seemed that she didn't know much.

Qinghuai changed the question, "Do you know what kind of people in the neighborhood would keep wild knives at home?"

"...Nodachi?" Nana was stunned for a moment, holding the cigarette between her lips, a little impatient, "How do I know about that kind of thing? Can I still go into other people's houses to see?"

Qinghuai noticed that the little finger of her hand holding the cigarette twitched, and she moved her eyes away from him, looking at the floor atmosphere lamp beside her.

—she was hiding something.

Qinghuai and Osamu Dazai looked at each other and confirmed their thoughts.

"In this case." Osamu Dazai shrugged and got up from the sofa, "Then I won't bother you, let's go to Beijie by ourselves."

Nana didn't speak, and waved her hand in boredom. Her mood changed quickly, and she turned around and chatted with the man at the other table, as if it was really just a temporary idea, and she kindly told the two of them information.

As soon as Qinghuai stepped out of Luoyingju, his phone vibrated in his pocket. He clicked on the screen, and it was a text message from Kunikida Doppo——

[The suspect girl is on the roof of a residential building on Citi Street North Street, intending to commit suicide by jumping off the building, hurry up! 】

The two quickly rushed to North Street, and soon found the residential building where the girl was, because there were crowds of onlookers standing below, and one of them called the police loudly on the phone.

This is an old-fashioned residential building, only seven stories high, and there is no elevator. Qinghuai climbed to the top floor panting, only to find that the roof door was locked, and now only the girl was outside, and the situation was very critical.

Osamu Dazai took out a wire from his pocket, inserted it into the lock and turned it up and down several times, the lock cylinder clicked, and the door opened.

As soon as Qing Huai stepped onto the rooftop, she was shocked by the scene in front of her and stopped in place.

The age of the girl is estimated to be about 20 years old, one foot has been stepped on the ground, and there is a risk of falling at any time.

When she heard the voice, she turned her head and glanced, her face was covered with tears, she was a very pretty girl.

But what really makes Qinghuai creepy is that the girl's body is covered with dense pink insect eggs from the left elbow to the side of the neck. Chickenpox makes your scalp tingle instantly.

"Eggs"...

"Hello, my name is Inoue Komatsu." The girl suddenly smiled sweetly, as if she had fallen into some illusion.

"Hello, my name is Inoue Komatsu."

There are not many students like Komatsu Inoue who have transferred from a university. She originally studied at a famous Ivy League school in the United States. She was transferred to Yokohama Women's University with a letter of recommendation written by an honorary professor from the previous school.Due to family changes, her only relatives since she was a child are her grandparents, but last month her grandpa passed away, so she had to transfer to Yokohama to take care of her grandma who couldn't take care of herself.

Inoue Komatsu was very popular when she first came to the school, because she came from the United States and majored in American literature.

At first, many girls liked to be friends with her.

What's more, Inoue Komatsu has another cool trait in their eyes - she works part-time as a chef's assistant at Luoying Residence!

Japanese girls are very restrained, but contrary to their behavior, their hearts desire to do something bold.Inoue Komatsu is undoubtedly a template to satisfy the fantasies of the girls around her. She established herself in the United States very early, can speak fluent American pronunciation, and said without hesitation that she has a part-time job in Luoyingju.

This kind of unconventional personality immediately made her like a star, everyone in the school knew everyone, and all the girls envied her chic.

Sakura House - what a great place, it's the top brothel in Japan!Part-time job is not about prostitution, it's just handsome and bold!

But what Inoue Komatsu didn't know was that her fame was also the beginning of her nightmare.

It was an ordinary Friday afternoon. After the last public computer class, Inoue Komatsu was going to work part-time at Sakura Residence. Today was Miss Nana's performance.She likes this beautiful and intellectual woman very much. Nana always gives her some expensive perfumes and chocolates, very kind.

"Student Inoue."

Just as Inoue Komatsu packed her schoolbag, the teacher on the podium suddenly stopped her, "There is a problem with the document assignment you submitted last time. Come with me to the office to correct it, otherwise it will affect your usual grades."

Inoue Komatsu secretly thought that he was unlucky, and quickly sent a message to sister Nana, saying that he might arrive later, and asked her to ask for a leave of absence.

The teacher's name is Natsuyuki Watanabe, who was their junior counselor, and helped her a lot when she handed in the formalities after transferring to another school. Xiaosong Inoue was very grateful to this teacher, so he didn't suspect him, picked up his bag and hurried over, hoping Can take care of these things before five o'clock, and then go to see Nana dance.

After entering the office, Natsuyuki Watanabe asked her to sit in her seat, turned on the computer and asked her to change it, and went to the water dispenser at the door to get water.

Inoue Komatsu clicked on the document with his name on it, read it carefully, and found no mistakes, so he hummed in doubt.

"...Ms. Watanabe, I'm sorry, what's wrong?" She raised her head, and then she was taken aback for a moment. At some point, Watanabe Xiazhi stood behind her, with her hands on the desk, and got very close.

Inoue Komatsu felt a little uncomfortable and tilted his head.

"Student Inoue," Natsuyuki Watanabe said suddenly in a strange tone, "The teacher always thinks you are beautiful."

The girl was taken aback, and the middle-aged man put his hands on her shoulders, buried his face in his hair, "...Student Inoue."

Inoue Komatsu immediately realized that she was being sexually harassed. She stood up suddenly, slapped Natsuyuki Watanabe's hand off, and rushed to the door. The office door was locked and had to be twisted three times to open it.

Natsuyuki Watanabe posted it immediately, and the salty pig's hand stuck to the girl's waist, "Student Inoue, how about you being my girlfriend, I can help you with scholarships and outstanding awards in the future..."

"No! Get out! Pervert!" Inoue Komatsu felt nauseated and pushed the middle-aged man, but did not push.

Natsuyuki Watanabe pressed his face up, and his hands became more dishonest.

Seeing that the cup on the water dispenser was still steaming, Inoue Komatsu reached out and poured all the boiling water on Natsuyuki Watanabe.

The middle-aged man dodged quickly, but his arm was still burned.

Inoue Komatsu took this opportunity to sneak out of the office.

The next day, she wrote a report letter to the school, reporting Watanabe Natsuyuki's sexual harassment in her real name.

But on that day, she ushered in the darkest nightmare of her life.

I don't know when, the girl who has been looking for her to go to the library with her has blocked her. During class, no one wants to sit by her side, and she will even be pointed at when walking on the road.

If it weren't for the post on the school forum, she would never know what she did wrong.

It turned out that according to Watanabe Natsuzhi, she was the one who seduced the counselor to ask for a scholarship, but after she failed, she stigmatized and reported and hurt others.

There was no surveillance in the office, and there was no evidence for both parties' claims, but there were photos of her part-time job in Luoyingju on the forum.There are rumors that she is a wandering girl from Luo Ying Residence, and she is not as pure as imagined.

So Inoue Komatsu's accusation of seducing the teacher was confirmed in the rumors. The school asked her to talk to her, and even sent a letter to her grandma to persuade her to quit.

Everything is going from bad to worse.

Inoue Komatsu was forced to suspend school, but when she was working part-time at Luoyingju, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Natsuyuki Watanabe.

Hope sprouted in her heart-if she could find evidence that Watanabe Natsuyuki had recruited prostitutes as a threat, could her grievances be cleared?

She was restless that night and broke three plates in a row.

Nana asked her if she had any worries, and Inoue Komatsu told her all about it.

Nana was very angry at the time, and almost took a knife out of the kitchen, and chopped up the man who was drinking free boiled water at the booth.

Inoue Komatsu persuaded Nana in time and told her his plan.

It's just that the first time it didn't work, Natsuyuki Watanabe noticed it in advance and blocked her in the alley, trying to touch her, but Nana who appeared in time took the turtle and beat her up.

The second time, she chose night and followed Watanabe Natsuzhi across the Santu Bridge and into North Street.

She took a picture of the other party entering the basement to visit a prostitute, and was about to go back, using this as evidence, but the man came out soon.

In order not to be discovered, Inoue Komatsu hid in the recycling bin in the alley. The smell of rotting garbage made her dizzy. She observed through the narrow gap when the middle-aged man left.

But she saw Nana in the gap, that beautiful wandering girl, holding a sharp Nodachi, and ruthlessly penetrated Watanabe Natsuyuki's abdomen.

The tip of the knife was white, and then it was dyed red.

Natsuyuki Watanabe was so drunk that he fell down in the alley without even shouting.

Inoue Komatsu covered her mouth and tried her best not to make a sound, she closed her eyes tightly, tears streaming down her face, she was scared and excited, her heart was beating so fast that she almost fainted.

After about half an hour, she dared to get up from the recycling bin.

On the ground in the alley, the man was completely dead.

Inoue Komatsu originally wanted to leave immediately, but held back his fear, found an old dress from the recycling bin, pushed the man into the recycling bin bit by bit, and covered it with garbage.

The garbage truck on North Street came very late and collected it once a week. This was the best way she could think of to hide.

She spent a long time doing this and using the dress to wipe away any visible blood on the floor.

After finishing everything, Inoue Komatsu was about to go back, but when he turned around, he found Nana looking at her at the alley, as if standing there for a long time.

The girl pursed her lips, feeling as if she was caught by an adult and didn't do her homework, but Nana just chuckled and lit a cigarette.

The lighter sounded crisply in the darkness, and brilliant sparks bloomed, reflecting Nana's beautiful appearance charmingly.

"Don't throw your clothes here, take them home and burn them." Nana beckoned at her, "Come back with me to take a shower, you bloodied man will be caught before you can walk to the subway station..."

But it didn't work.

The man died and the evidence was burned.

Her grievances were not cleared, and she was accused by everyone as a suspect.

Inoue Komatsu raised his head, his eyes were empty.

"Use the power." Osamu Dazai said behind Qinghuai, "I can't reach her, try to control the wind blade precisely to pierce those "worm eggs". "

Qing Huai took a deep breath. He had been trained by Osamu Dazai for a long time on how to precisely control his abilities. At first, he was bound by a man to break free from the knot, and then he was blindfolded and smashed the thrown darts. Improved a lot.

The young man closed his eyes slightly, concentrating——

"My blade"!

The insect eggs on Inoue Komatsu's body were pierced by the sharp wind blade and exploded like a water polo.

One, and another.

Beads of sweat gradually oozed from Qinghuai's forehead, running across his chin.

The girl slowly woke up from the dream, as if she didn't know why she appeared in such a place.

She stumbled and took a step back, the sense of weightlessness immediately hit her, her eyes panicked.

Qing Huai was the closest to the girl, he rushed over and grabbed Inoue Komatsu's wrist, followed by doubled falling gravity——

"Qing Huai!"

Osamu Dazai's heart stopped beating, and he watched helplessly as the young man fell off the roof.
