There is still a disgusting taste in the throat, and the spirit mixed with foam flows down the throat to the stomach, and there are still bursts of pain in the empty stomach, it seems that after drinking the glass of wine with strange ingredients, the awareness.

Dazai slowly opened his eyes.

As he expected, what came into view was the ceiling of his own house. Asuka Maozawa was afraid that he would die alone at home and no one would know. With his backup key here, Osamu Dazai sat up from the sofa and looked down at Gai. The thin quilt on the body.

He looked at his palm in a daze, waiting, and sure enough, two seconds later, he heard the sound of pattering footsteps, Mao ZeAsuka heard the movement, and hurried out of the kitchen.She casually wiped her wet hands on the apron, squatted in front of the sofa, "How do you feel now?"

Osamu Dazai couldn't help but be attracted by the apron she was wearing. The pink plaid had ruffles, and the black bean-like eyes of the dancing bear in the center of the apron met him. s things?

Mao ZeAsuka asked him several times, but Dazai did not respond. She looked down again, and Dazai had an expression of wandering, not knowing what he was thinking. She sighed, stretched out her hand to stroke Dazai Osamu put his palm on his forehead, "Although I induced vomiting in time...do you still feel uncomfortable?"

Just as she put her hand on it, she suddenly remembered that she was washing the dishes just now, her fingers were cold, and she hurriedly wanted to take her hand back, but Osamu Dazai put his forehead under her hand, and gently rubbed her palm, warm and warm. The touch is like touching the wet nose of a puppy.

Osamu Dazai lowered his eyes, and the tufted eyelashes hung down long and slenderly, covering the top of the eyeballs, looking obedient and pitiful, and Asuka Maozawa's heart softened again.

This is the child she watched grow up.

When he was young, Osamu Dazai was very thin, often sick, malnourished, there was almost no flesh on his bamboo pole-like arms, and he was so quiet that he couldn't speak at all.

She knew Osamu Dazai more than ten years ago. She was born in the countryside of Tsugaru. Osamu Dazai is the last son of a local landowner. Asuka Mozawa still remembers the gloomy mansion, the moldy walls, and the endless corridor .

Asuka Maoze is the old daughter of the family, and her parents let her always run around in the fields and mountains.

The first time I saw Osamu Dazai was in the spring of the year when I was ten years old. The weather was very hot and early, and the sun was shining brightly. Through the soles of the newly bought sandals, I could feel the scorching heat of the ground. She heard There were crickets outside, and they ran into the mountains to catch the biggest ones, but got lost and ran into the Tsushima family's mansion.

In the center of the courtyard was a huge cherry blossom tree, which was blooming in clusters, like burning red clouds. The cherry blossom tree was so big that it blocked her view. She climbed up without seeing the house behind her. He climbed up the tree and climbed on a forked flower branch with both hands and feet.

"Are you stealing flowers?"

Maozawa Asuka was walking on the branch carefully maintaining his balance, when he heard this sound suddenly, he grabbed the flower branch in surprise and fell down from the tree. Zhi met his eyes.

There is a short house behind the lush trees, the gold-painted paper sliding door painted with bright red maple is slightly opened a small crack, only half of face is exposed in the crack, Mao ZeAsuka patted the ashes on his body, picked up The flowering branches that fell on the ground limped to the door, "Are you a person who lives here? Sorry, I thought this tree was wild just now, but I didn't expect to break off the branches—"

Her voice stopped in embarrassment. Behind the door was a young child who cautiously took a few steps back because of her approach.

She saw the kimono on the boy's body through the crack of the door. It was a fabric she couldn't name. It was very expensive at first glance, and the white skirt she was wearing had long been stained with dust by her. I am sorry for Maozawa Asuka. He tugged at the short hair that was disheveled around his ears, and dropped a few blades of grass.

She put the broken late cherry blossoms by the crack of the paper sliding door.

A small pale hand quickly stretched out, holding Wanying by the crack of the door.

Mao ZeAsuka opened his eyes wide and subconsciously stopped him, "Wait, you can't take it like this, late cherry blossoms have thorns!"

However, it was too late, Mao ZeAsuka heard the boy's small gasp, and before he could react, he grabbed his hand through the crack of the door, and carefully opened his tightly held palm, without any blood The center of the palm of the hand really seeped out little by little blood.

Mao Ze Asuka's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled. She was a carefree girl, and she rarely had such an expression. When he came out, he scolded the child with a straight face, "Isn't it common sense? How can you just hold the thorns of the flower with your hands? Doesn't it hurt!"

"I don't know..." The boy who was held by her said in a low voice, Mao ZeAsuka couldn't hear clearly, and asked, "What?"

"I don't know, flowers have thorns." He said every word.

Maoze Asuka's eyes widened, and before he could react, he subconsciously blurted out, "How is it possible, isn't this your flower?"

The boy raised his eyes to look at her, and then quickly looked away, but just one glance, Mozawa Asuka remembered those eyes, which were bottomless and empty.

He said, "I don't know."

"I've never been through this door."

Mao ZeAsuka became confused, "Why? Are you in poor health? Why can't you go out?"

She originally thought that this weird child would not answer her, but unexpectedly he answered honestly, "They won't let me go out."

"Why not? Who are they?"

This time, he didn't answer.

Maoze Asuka looked around, there was silence, only the chirping of cicadas echoed in the mountains, as if there were only the two of them in this world, she knocked on the delicate paper door, "Do you want to come out and play?" ?”

"..."

Asuka Maozawa opened the door.

From that day on, Asuka Maozawa often came to this old house. She brought her marbles and played with him under the cherry blossom tree. In the end, he won all the colored marbles she was most proud of, and taught him After Bairenyishou and shogi, he never beat him again.

He has never been out of the house. Asuka Maoze showed him his book and read it to him word by word. Unexpectedly, he would be able to recognize the words he had read the second time, and he would be able to read by himself within a few days , Mao ZeAsuka left the book to him, and exchanged the old one for a new one in a few days.

After entering junior high school, the uniform changed to a sailor uniform. Asuka Nekozawa grew her hair long and tied it into a double braid. She became quieter and still often went to the old house. They sat side by side by the paper sliding door On the wooden foundation outside, she put her treasured photos on her lap and showed him one by one.

It was like this until she was 15 years old, her parents were getting old and passed away one after another, she was taken to Tokyo by her elder brother who was much older than herself, and she went to high school in Tokyo. A year after leaving, a fire destroyed the Tsushima family.

She went to the old house, and there were scorched marks everywhere, no one repaired it, there were ruins everywhere, even the cherry blossom tree was burnt to charcoal, and it could no longer bloom.

She thought she would never see him again, so she carefully buried the colorful marbles she picked up under the fallen wooden door under the cherry blossom tree.

But I didn't expect that there would be a day of unexpected reunion.

When she just graduated, the first company she entered was in Yokohama. I heard that Yokohama was very unsafe at that time. My nephew sent her to Yokohama. Asuka Maozawa actually didn’t understand. She was already an adult. Why did the whole family She must be sent to her by the junior who just entered junior high school, but then she understood that Kusuo is the god of luck. When she was queuing to buy coffee jelly for him, she accidentally reunited with her own young tameran.

Although he looked very different from when he was young, and was even much taller than her, Asuka Maoze recognized him at a glance.

He didn't say anything about the past few years of his disappearance, or what he was doing now, but just told Asuka Maoze that he had changed his name.

Later, they kept in touch with each other on and off until today.

No matter what happened in the past, no matter what he went through, no matter what he is now, in Mao ZeAsuka's heart, he has not changed at all, he is still the child shrunk behind the paper door, afraid of the outside world.

He is not as complicated as outsiders imagine.

Asuka Maozawa stuffed the glass of warm water into Dazai Osamu's hand, tucked his quilt up, lay down on the edge of the sofa, looked into his eyes seriously, and asked, "Why are you unhappy?"

"No." Osamu Dazai moved the glass to his mouth, and drank it in small sips. The warm water eased the pain in his stomach. He drank more than half of the glass slowly, and Asuka Maozawa was still watching seriously. he.Osamu Dazai was silent for a long time, still pursing his lips, not saying a word.

Seeing his expression, Mao ZeAsuka knew that there would be nothing more to ask, so she sighed and stood up, walking towards the kitchen.

As soon as she turned around, her apron was carefully grabbed.

Asuka Mozawa turned his head, Osamu Dazai was silent for a while, "...Xiaoxiang, I want to live in Tokyo for two days."

He lowered his head, showing a fragile and blank expression again, "Is it okay to live at your house?"

Asuka Maoze sighed again, "Let's have something to eat first, I'll drive." She brought out a bowl of porridge from the kitchen, "The room reserved for my nephew, if you don't mind, just stay for two days."

He knew that Asuka Maoze could not refuse his expression.

Mozawa Asuka drove the car. Before dawn, the car crossed the coast, crossed several cities, and arrived in Tokyo. Mozawa Asuka’s salary was very high, and he rented an extremely high-end apartment with shiny elevators. layer rise.

"This is where you live, it's really grand." Osamu Dazai stepped out of the elevator first, and said to Asuka Maozawa with a sideways body, Asuka Maozawa looked at him strangely.Because there was an incomprehensible smile on Asuka Maozawa's face again.

"When I think of living in this kind of apartment, I'm so happy that I can't sleep." Osamu Dazai said with a smile, while looking at the shiny elevator door, he stared at the reflection of the figure other than them .

The author has something to say:

da.tea art master.zai

(Not love not love!)

Every time Dazai appeared on the stage, he would help Nanami sweep away all the opposite sex around Maoze, and he did good deeds without leaving his name.
