Seeking the Law of Summoning in Taisho

Chapter 118 Dream and Reality

The bell on the bar door was rung in the middle of the night.

The visitor came down the stairs with a briefcase, and saw a red-haired young man sitting by the bar in a light mist.

The man put down the wine glass in his hand, turned his head and greeted him: "Anwu."

Sakaguchi Ango smiled, put the briefcase on the bar, and sat next to him.

The bartender, who was wearing a familiar red vest, handed him his usual drink without saying anything.

"It's a rare quiet night when Dazai-kun is not here."

He joked, Oda Sakunosuke heard the words and glanced at him, just when Ango Sakaguchi was wondering what this person was trying to express, the other party suddenly took out two cards from his arms.

It looked like a postcard, except the landscape had a blank back with nothing written on it.

"Dazai sent these two postcards to me before he went on a business trip," said Oda Sakunosuke, "He said that if you say, 'It's a quiet night without Dazai-kun', take out these two cards. .”

Sakaguchi Ango: "..."

He supported his forehead, and sighed helplessly: "Dazai-kun really...do you even have to anticipate this kind of thing!"

Oda Sakunosuke said sincerely: "Dazai is really good at this."

"Okay, Mr. Odasaku, if you let Dazai-kun hear your words, he will probably become even more unscrupulous." Ango Sakaguchi stared at the postcard in his hand, "Why did Dazai-kun leave us these two cards? Woolen cloth?"

"He didn't say."

Sakunosuke Oda turned the landscape paintings of the two postcards upwards. Ango Sakaguchi took a closer look and found that the two landscape paintings, one depicting a mountain covered with lush forests, and the other depicting a magnificent sea.

"Is it some kind of puzzle game?" Ango Sakaguchi pushed his glasses.

"Maybe?" Oda Sakunosuke pushed the card with the mountain on it to Ango Sakaguchi, "Dazai said this is for you." He shook the "sea" in his hand, "This is for me."

"What exactly does Dazai-kun want to do?"

"Hmm..." Oda Sakunosuke thought for a while, "Maybe he just wanted to give us two landscape paintings?"

"No, Odasaku-san, I don't think Dazai-kun would send such a thing for no reason."

Ango Sakaguchi looked at the postcard over and over for a while, but he still couldn't see the name. He was about to put it on the bar temporarily, when the dim light from the lamp next to him flashed through the blank side of the postcard, Ango Sakaguchi suddenly When you think of something, you pause.

"What's wrong?" Oda Sakunosuke looked at him.

"I just suddenly had a guess." Ango Sakaguchi opened the briefcase next to him, took out a laser pointer from it, pointed at a large blank on the postcard, and pressed the button.

The purple light beam was projected onto the card, and the blank space there instantly became different from the original one, and the handwriting hidden in the card stood out, and Ango Sakaguchi couldn't help but sigh.

"Sure enough, it's Dazai-kun's style."

Oda Sakunosuke leaned over to read the words on it: "Ah, that seems to be Ango's name."

After hearing this, Ango Sakaguchi also turned his attention to the card.

He moved the light beam to the right bit by bit, and the words on the card appeared and disappeared with his movement. After a while, the two finally read the content on it completely——

"Ango, don't speak ill of me when I leave, come back and bring you a present~"

At the end, he also added a Q-version blinking man drawn by himself, exuding the same sly aura as that man.

Ango Sakaguchi put down the card and couldn't help retorting: "Who would say bad things about him!"

Even if it is said that he would complain about the other party in person, how could he say such things behind his back.

"Dazai used this method to convey information, and he did it really covertly." Oda Sakunosuke said suddenly.

Ango Sakaguchi paused, and explained to him, "The organization often uses this method to transmit information. Mr. Odasaku may not know much about it, but it is very common for me. Dazai-kun may be thinking about my The identity of the intelligence agent, so trust me to solve it - otherwise it will be meaningless."

He handed the laser pointer to Oda Sakunosuke: "Mr. Oda Saku, let's see what he left for you."

Oda Sakunosuke nodded and took the laser pointer.

Ango Sakaguchi took advantage of this time to take a sip of wine. Although the exhaustion from working all day could not be said to be relieved, at least it played a big role in moistening his throat.

After a while, the person next to him let out a complicated "ah".

Ango Sakaguchi: "Why, what did Dazai-kun say?"

Oda Sakunosuke turned his eyes to look at him: "Dazai said, let me not tell you that there is a pot of 'Superman Vitality Durable Pot' among the gifts."

"...?" Ango Sakaguchi swore that ten thousand salmon must have swam through his mind at the moment just now, which caused him to concentrate on counting the fish and forget to put on a corresponding expression.

After a moment of silence, he analyzed calmly and rationally, "That is to say, Dazai-kun not only wants to make me a 'Superman Vitality and Durability Pot', but also wants to give me a pot."

After holding back, Ango Sakaguchi still couldn't hold back, holding his head and choking: "Does he want to cook this dish for me for a long time! It will kill me! I haven't finished my work yet, I don't want to die so soon !"

Oda Sakunosuke patted his friend's shoulder reassuringly, pondered for a moment, and comforted him: "Actually, the name sounds good, maybe the taste..."

"Okay?" Ango Sakaguchi cried, "Mr. Odasaku, it is because you always follow him that this kind of tragedy happened!"

Oda Sakunosuke withdrew his hand, "...Sorry."

"I don't need an apology from Odasaku-san," Sakaguchi Yasugo sighed, "I just hope that Odasaku-san can help me then."

"……I try my best."

……

Stiff pain came from the back of the neck, and the soreness and dryness of the eyeballs flooded into consciousness together. Ango Sakaguchi opened his eyes, touched the back of his neck and got up from the table where he was lying on his stomach, and then stopped.

After two seconds, he realized that the corners of his mouth were still raised.

At that moment, the corner of his mouth fell, and the hand that moved away from the back of his neck did not rush to grab the glasses on the table, but covered his eyes heavily and slowly, causing his vision to fall into darkness again.

〖This dream...has actually happened. 〗

In the past, Osamu Dazai would occasionally like to play this kind of "puzzle-solving game" with them. It is not difficult. You only need to solve the blank "mystery" in some specific ways to get the final answer. Therefore, for Ango Sakaguchi, it is very important Blank on the page Suspicion becomes completely knee-jerk.

But he never expected that Osamu Dazai would still adopt this method in the end—until the end, he ended his life like a joke,

Ango Sakaguchi can't remember clearly the mood when he heard the news. Maybe his brain was blank at that time, which made it so difficult for him to recall now.

However, even so, there is still something he can be sure of.

When Ango Sakaguchi saw the two hidden sentences in the "book", he understood——

The other party is asking for help.

In a vague, contradictory way, struggling to ask him for help.

But at the same time, the other party knew very well that he couldn't hold him back.

No one in this world can hold back Osamu Dazai.

So he didn't even give him a second more time, and even smiled and refused the hand that was handed over. He just walked towards death resolutely and alone.

Just as Dazai Osamu couldn't save Oda Sakunosuke, he, Sakaguchi Ango, couldn't save Dazai Osamu.

So, perhaps, their friendship was destined to end this way.

--

The night wind blew over with the fishy smell and humidity of the sea. Oda Sakunosuke carried a sleeping man on his back and walked slowly on the streets along the coast of Yokohama. It is inevitable to be emotional.

〖Didn’t expect to come back here...〗

After Taisho's final battle, Aoi had gained enough divine power from Osamu Dazai's colleagues to prepare to send the two back from the dead back to their main world.

But before returning, Osamu Dazai seemed to ask Aoi for something in private. The two discussed it for a long time. Although Oda Sakunosuke was a little confused, he didn't ask.

He thought, if Osamu Dazai wanted to say something, he would definitely tell him.

If he doesn't want to, he is not willing to force the other party.

Three days after the war ended, the two returned to Yokohama.

The place where it landed was the roof of a small six-story building. Before Oda Sakunosuke could say anything, Osamu Dazai lost consciousness and fell directly on top of him.

This situation frightened the hair on the top of Oda Sakunosuke's head, but fortunately, after the examination, he found that his breathing was stable and his body was fine, so he concluded that the other party just fell asleep because he was too tired.

Although Oda Sakunosuke still looks calm at the moment, if you observe carefully, you will find that this person has taken Dazai Osamu to and fro around the beach for dozens of laps. The door was about to close, but he still had no intention of leaving.

——Because he had no idea where Osamu Dazai was currently living.

Just when Oda Sakunosuke started thinking about whether to find a hotel to stay for the night, the person on the back finally snorted and woke up slowly.

"How did you sleep?"

"So... Tired..." The young man rubbed against his shoulders, his voice that was not fully awake seemed a little soft, without the usual vigor and cunning, which made him sound much more docile.

But the next moment, this kind of warmth disappeared without a trace.

"Where is sleep? It's just that Kui-kun took this opportunity to return the memory to me," Osamu Dazai complained. It’s the same as when I was a year ago, and my back hurts. If it weren’t for Odasaku’s backing, I wouldn’t want to take a step.”

Oda Sakunosuke: "Fortunately, I'm here."

Osamu Dazai paused, he blinked his eyes, and leaned closer to the other person's face, wanting to carefully check the expression on the other person's face, but helplessly, it was too dark and we were so close, so he couldn't see clearly.

Sensing his movement, Oda Sakunosuke tilted his head, and was about to ask what's the matter, when he suddenly felt a flash of warmth on his cheek - it seemed that he brushed the other's lips in the process of turning his head.

"Oh..." Osamu Dazai looked at him meaningfully, "Now Odasaku is not only familiar with love words, but also so proficient in cheating me with kisses, I am really worried!"

Oda Sakunosuke was taken aback: "What are you worried about?"

"I'm worried that Odasaku's unconsciousness will attract a lot of lovely women," Dazai Osamu said with a smile, "I have to choose between Odasaku and cute women at that time, and that's really embarrassing for me!"

Oda Sakunosuke heard the words, turned his head, and sighed helplessly.

"Dazai, if that's the case, it's me who should be worried, right?"

Osamu Dazai giggled, he gave Sakunosuke Oda a quick peck on the face, and hugged him tightly again, "It's stamped, this is mine!"

Oda Sakunosuke: "But the problem of 'would you choose a woman' hasn't been resolved yet?"

"Hey! Is Odasaku still worried about this problem?" Osamu Dazai pretended to be reluctant, "Well, I will let you stamp it when I go back--now, turn around first, we are going home~ "

Oda Sakunosuke turned around as he said.

But what they didn't expect was that the person who met their eyes after turning around would be so familiar——

The young man who looked like a professor was wearing a tan suit that might have been purchased in bulk so that it looked like he had never changed. Even the white light reflected on the round-frame glasses was exactly the same as in memory.

His eyes were fixed on this side, motionless.

"Ango..."

Oda Sakunosuke called out the opponent's name.

But the young man was still standing at the door of the convenience store, without any response or any other actions. He just turned his back to the light in the store, and the expression on his face was limited by the darkness, making it hard to see clearly.

It took a long time before he heard the other party sigh, and seemed to mutter something in his mouth.

Dazai Osamu and Oda Sakunosuke looked at each other, and then Dazai Osamu slid off Oda Sakunosuke's back, and greeted people in the distance with a smile.

"Ah, Ango, it's been a long time. Could it be that you have forgotten us?"

"Dazai-kun is joking again."

Ango Sakaguchi finally left from the small area in front of the convenience store. He walked towards the two of them. The plastic bag in his hand rattled as he walked, and he didn't know what was inside.

He stood in front of the two of them, the white light on the round glasses faded, revealing a pair of beautiful, smiling eyes inside.

"So, when did Dazai-kun come back from a business trip?"

The author has something to say: If I can finish the liver, there may be another update, so I can watch it later.
