Yunyang Novelist Luanbu

A week later, Ryunosuke Komatsu's book signing event was officially held at the largest bookstore under Seigakukan.An hour before the door of the bookstore opened, there was an orderly queue at the door of the store, and the books in hand were already ready.The reporters of the news newspaper office did not waste time queuing up and started interviewing readers at the door.

Standing at the front was a black-haired boy with bandages and a tall red-haired boy next to him. The reporter wondered how long they had been in line.The honest man Oda Sakunosuke said that he hadn't actually been in the queue for a long time, and that the subordinates of the mafia lined up, and they just got into the queue just now.Of course, some people expressed dissatisfaction, but as long as they saw the other party's posture, everyone chose to be quiet.

In fact, Oda didn't think of coming to line up at first, after all, he didn't look up and see down.But Osamu Dazai is right, seeing Ranpo in this situation has a different meaning.This is a kind of flattery, which is also a kind of support.Ranpo will like this kind of kindness and kindness shown brightly and brightly.This probably has something to do with his personality. He himself is not used to hiding others' kindness, unless he doesn't feel that he is doing something good, he will generally do it very flamboyantly.

"Tell me, what will Ranpo look like when he sees us?" Oda Sakunosuke has never done such a thing, so he is inevitably a little embarrassed, "It would be nice if Ayanokōji also came along."

After all, when we first met, it was the three of them, and they experienced many things together, from fighting against great writers, to solving the problems of Ranpo's high school, to winning awards in Ranpo.In less than a few months, it feels like a long time.It's a pity that Ayanokoji hasn't been in touch since he signed up for the interview at Tokyo Metropolitan College. If he can meet Ayanokoji at this time, it will definitely be another surprise.

Although Oda Sakunosuke is old, but because of his personality, he feels like a blank sheet of paper.Not long after Osamu Dazai stayed with him, he felt that the bottom of Oda was almost transparent.Osamu Dazai almost forgot the reason why he wanted to stay in the port mafia in the first place after following Oda Sakunosuke these days.It may be that the time has become longer, and it may be affected by the character of Oda Sakunosuke, but it is always forgotten that the reason why I stayed in the mafia is to find the meaning of living.

Osamu Dazai felt that life was boring a long time ago. When he accidentally ran into Ranpo by throwing himself into the river, he suddenly felt that he had opened a new treasure box.It seems that in the originally closed space, a new window suddenly appeared, the window reveals a new scenery, and the scenery reveals a new wind and breath.Osamu Dazai was curious about how this childish novelist wrote those decadent and lazy words like dusk, and also curious about how he sat on the position of the leader of the mafia, curious about how he became the leader and how he got rid of the mafia. It was a mess, turned upside down.

To be precise, Osamu Dazai is like a child who saw a mischievous child playing a game and followed him curiously to see how he played.In the following process, Osamu Dazai found that Ranpo was more powerful and excellent than he imagined. For the first time, it reminded people of those words that were used badly in the past - "glittering like gold". I knew this metaphor before. , but at this time, I feel that this metaphor is wonderful.

It's just right on Ranbu.

Ranpo once appeared at a mafia funeral.This person who usually only stays in the study to write novels and eat delicious food, and doesn't care about the port mafia affairs at all, unexpectedly attended the funeral on a whim, which shocked the lower-level members of the port mafia.Dazai Osamu was bored that day and ran to watch after hearing about this incident. After all, he didn't know what he wanted to do.Of course, considering that he is a novelist, Osamu Dazai has reason to believe that he is actually going to collect materials, but he didn’t expect to read the eulogy at random steps, holding a stack of paper in his hand, and some of the words on it are still like elementary school students, lacking pen missing words.

Osamu Dazai didn't quite understand what Ranpo was doing, and was about to leave after watching for half an hour, but was stopped by Edogawa Ranpo.So Osamu Dazai asked what he was doing here.

Ranpo said: "Cremate the copies for them, and after the demonstration, the others will know what to do." Seeing that Osamu Dazai still didn't understand his intentions, Ranbu continued to explain: "Even if there is no bond of relatives and friends, there is no People around me, with these words, it also proves that I have lived by myself."

"Is it so important to be alive?"

"Mothers live for their children and conceive for ten months, no matter what they have experienced growing up, whether it is terrible or wonderful, whether it is besieged by all sides or riding the wind and waves, life is worth it."

Luanbu said, shook open a copy and started to read, said: "I am XXXX, the port mafia. I have worked here for four years. I usually like to exercise and play billiards. My favorite dish is beer with chicken skewers. When I was young, I often watched My dad eats it, and if he sees that I am hungry, he will give me a bite, saying that when I grow up, we will eat yakitori and drink beer together. But my dad is long gone..."

Ranbu said and looked at Osamu Dazai: "Look, he is alive." He pointed to different pages while talking: "This one is alive, he is alive, and he is alive. No matter how small a person is, he has lived. This man has lived, and he has lived."

"Is this the purpose you asked them to write the book in the first place? To help them leave living evidence?"

It was the first time for Osamu Dazai to feel that Ranpo was different from what he had imagined.

He thought that a person with a personality like Ranpo would not care about other people's life and death, but unexpectedly, he would pay attention to this kind of thing.

"Of course not. I'm not a nosy person. I don't know how to save people. That's too much trouble. I can only teach others how to save themselves. Then it's their own business."

Osamu Dazai felt that Ranpo actually knew he would come and did so on purpose.Of course, he may not be the only target person, and there are many others who don't understand why Ranpo must ask everyone to write.But, more or less, Osamu Dazai also began to be interested in words.

Can writing really save itself?

Osamu Dazai suddenly wanted to give it a try.

……

Osamu Dazai was thinking about the image of Ranpo in his mind, when Oda Sakunosuke suddenly said to him: "Maybe Dazai-kun can become friends with Ranpo?" Because Ranpo asked Oda to still call his name, plus Kamiranpo also told Oda that he would have no interest in being a leader at all, so Oda Sakunosuke still maintained the original way of getting along with Ranpo.

Oda's proposal made Osamu Dazai a little strange: "Why do you think so? If you think that I am about the same age as him, so we must become friends, this kind of thinking is very narrow."

Oda is obviously a few years older than Osamu Dazai, but he will always be criticized by Osamu Dazai, pointing out his shortcomings, such as stupidity, such as shallow thinking.

"I think your personalities should be very suitable. Both of you are extroverted."

Osamu Dazai felt that Oda Sakunosuke had a wrong understanding of the word extroversion.

"I never thought about it."

"Then start thinking about it now."

"..."

What do you think about this?

"I think you are often alone, won't you be bored?" Oda Sakunosuke always looks at Osamu Dazai alone, and because he always likes to commit suicide, many people also avoid him, fearing that he will suddenly play a prank, "If you need me If you want, you can call me anytime."

"..."

Five minutes later, the store door officially opened, and everyone looked up to see the legendary teacher Ryunosuke Komatsu.Although the opponent looked exactly like Ranpo, Osamu Dazai found that it was not the Edogawa Ranpo he knew.
