Chapter 2 Lily Flowers and Spirits

[Four]

"Dazai has something to hide from us." Ranpo sat on the president's table eating puffs, "His reaction was wrong."

"We shouldn't doubt him, and make random steps..." The middle-aged president Yukichi Fukuzawa has an extremely calm temperament. Yokohama has a history of decades of vicissitudes. He is the witness and the helm.

Luanbu shook his head, he didn't mean that.Dazai was personally assessed by the president and Kunikida, and he is definitely their reliable colleague and family member.

"When I was talking about the Five Decays of Heaven and Man with Dazai, Dazai described in detail all the key information about the Five Decays of Heaven and Man and the reactions of the core members. This is the ability that an agent must have for many years to walk on the tip of a knife." Ranbu licked Finger, "But other than that, he is just a kid in his early 20s, can he bear to live in front of his companions without saying a word about his feelings?"

The president frowned. He quickly recalled the details of the mission reports made by the young members of the detective agency. Some of them would bring souvenirs, tell interesting stories, or comment on the local scenery, complaining about getting suntanned or eating Bad food, flight delays, etc...

"A person's instinctive reaction cannot be hidden. According to Maslow's need theory, people's needs from low to high are: physiological, safety, social, respect and self-actualization needs," Ranbu patiently explained, "Dazai's refusal to communicate now may be due to a problem with lower-level security requirements."

The sun slanted through the window, and the puffs slowly exhaled a soft and sweet breath.Dazai is a young man and even a proud counselor. He has lost his sense of security in a certain way because of this mission. Even if all members of the detective agency know it well, they will give them untraceable care, see through it without revealing it, and wait for Dazai to recover on his own. .

The president shook his head. He didn't think Dazai would be so fragile. The 20-year-old couldn't think about going out for a drink or something for a while, and he'll be fine soon.

"Let's change our thinking..." Ranbu saw that there was no hope of explaining, and said, "For the five evils of heaven and man, Dazai is an undercover staff officer in the detective agency, he should not relax here, but tense up Agents who are nervous and driven by adrenaline will be extra vigilant when they are subconsciously on guard."

A strong sense of disobedience is flowing in the president's heart, and the five declines of heaven and man will not give up the temptation. If Dazai relaxes a little at the detective agency at this time, it proves that this new staff officer regards the five declines of heaven and man as enemies that need to be treated indifferently, and Treat the Armed Detective Agency as a safe place to live, and all undercover operations will come to naught.

"Why didn't you remind Dazai earlier?" The president hurriedly picked up Haori from the hanger, "He should be prepared."

"It's okay," Ranpo looked at his watch, "Every time Dazai returns to the detective agency on a business trip, he is used to climbing over the outer wall of the abandoned building area through the gap in the guardrail of the commercial street, which can save two thousand yen for the subway ticket. This time should be no exception. The hem of his coat was stained with the red soil I scattered on the outer wall of the only way to pass. I took him to the underground air-raid shelter to sleep for an hour. During this hour, there was no signal from the locator in Dazai's body. The subway arrives at the nearest station to the detective agency, and it takes exactly one hour, so people with five bad things will naturally think that Dazai is taking the subway instead of an air-raid shelter."

The sound of clogs beating on the ground changed from flustered to calm and powerful, the corners of the president's mouth curled up, the detective agency's double wall never let anyone down.

When the two went to wake up Dazai, they happened to meet the Tanizaki brothers and sisters who were walking from the subway station to the air-raid shelter. The elder brother was wearing a naive Pikachu doll costume, and his steps were ridiculous.My younger sister, Naomi, was buying ice cream at the soda cart 100 meters away, but she never looked this way from the beginning to the end.

This brother and sister are reliable partners of the detective agency. The elder brother is already 18 years old, and the younger sister has just entered high school. Young people are best at adapting to changing situations, and their acting skills are freely displayed on the spot.

The president knew that the situation had changed, so he went straight to a dessert shop to buy Daifuku and milk tea jelly, and made an OK gesture in disorder.

He once made an agreement with Dazai that if there is any unexpected situation, he will use the short-range vibration transmitter to transmit the signal. Now Dazai should have quickly disguised himself and returned to the detective agency, waiting for the new test of the five declines of heaven and man.

"Ranpo, what is that short-range vibration transmitter between you and Dazai?" The president couldn't help asking in a low voice, "If it's useful, everyone should have one."

"This thing doesn't match everyone's temperament." Ranbu took out a vibrating ball to form a human object with a serious face, "He has another one at his place, and the remote control is at my place."

The president's face cramped and he bit his tongue.

【Fives】

"The Five Decays of Heaven and Man is really disgusting," Tanizaki got out of the doll costume, "the homeless people of the Rat Organization of the Dead have indeed gone wrong, but the Five Decays of Heaven and Man also has another intelligence organization, which is better than the ubiquitous intelligence organization. The rats in the dead house are still annoying, and they all appear at various traffic crossings openly, but fortunately there are not many of them."

Dazai leaned on the sofa to read the report, one hour of rest wasn't enough to restore his physical strength, but he also regained some energy.

Fyodor's Thunder method spread the intelligence network all over the world, and the homeless and refugees in every city were brought under his command, leaving orphans to be carefully cultivated, and adults to perform tasks to collect intelligence.The rat in the house of death is really like a mouse, moving around flexibly and getting accurate information.

"This intelligence organization is all civil servants or regular employees, right?" Dazai stuck out his tongue, "It's the dead soul of Gogol's organization who is the third in the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, and the level of nausea is two stars."

All the members of this intelligence organization are staff members, but without exception, there have been post transfers, and the original post cannot be found. Gogol used some means to open up department relations, bought the personal information of the dead staff, and then Put your own subordinates in, replace the dead employees, and then erase the previous files by moving the work place, and find out that there is no such person but he is still editing.

The dead soul organization has infiltrated grassroots positions in different countries and has too much official information and information.

"It's amazing..." Tanizaki took a sip of ice water, "Mr. Dazai's trip to Russia was really rewarding."

The members were very complicated, and even thought that Dazai was sacrificing his innocence in exchange for information, and when he heard the word harvest, he only looked at the sky and the earth, and dared not answer.

Partner Kunikida has the heart to help Dazai clarify: "Dazai should not pay too much for information... and he will not do such and such things..."

Dazai excitedly wanted to fist bump with Kunikida, the ball jumped out of his pocket in the shape of a puppet, and rolled to the ground.

Kunikida, who was going to pour tea for his partner, shook his hands and directly put the water cup on Dazai's face, and it was completely impossible to wash it off.

A group of young people looked at each other with their own ghosts, when Dazai's cell phone rang suddenly.

It was Fyodor's call, Dazai hurried downstairs and pressed the answer button.

"Pretend to be Pikachu and report to the Armed Detective Agency, let's scare the new colleagues..." Fyodor said with a smile, "How does this organization look like?"

Dazai suppressed the chills down his back, but luckily Ranbu made arrangements ahead of time and asked Tanizaki to replace him from the airport bathroom and take the subway to the detective agency. Dazai was not exposed within an hour of rest.

"There are seven official members and three civilian secretaries, all of whom seem ordinary," Dazai quickly organized his words, "There are also women and children, among them a tall man with strong physical skills, and a little girl with extraordinary skills, and others People are not very threatening, and the secretaries are ordinary women."

"Thanks for your hard work," Fyodor said with a smile. "You must be tired... Otherwise, why would you miss one member?"

"Hurry up and assign tasks. It will take another week for me to fully lurk into the Armed Detective Agency," Dazai said in an impatient tone, "I am your staff officer, your colleague and subordinate, not an enemy, so there is no need to repeatedly test."

Dazai lowered his voice until his throat hurt, he thought, in Fyodor's perception, he should have not closed his eyes for two days and one night, and his body was in a state of extreme exhaustion.

"Don't say that, doesn't Dazai trust me too?" Fyodor's voice on the other end was very cute, "When my dear staff officer described the detective agency, he didn't mention the name of any member, just cared about it." Describe your appearance, and report to me the information I already know in such a hurry, are you still angry at me for spying on you?"

"Please, Mr. Fei Jia, don't talk for nothing," Dazai said in a tired and indifferent voice, "The staff officer only needs mission instructions."

"There is no independent mission for the time being," Fyodor said with a smile. "Just cooperate with the Apostle of Cang who has recently performed a mission, and take a good rest by the way. Mr. Gogol will give you instructions at any time."

"Got it." Dazai hung up the phone in a flat tone.

Cold sweat had already begun to trickle down his temples, Dazai took a few deep breaths, bought a few cups of coffee at a convenience store and brought them back to the detective agency.For newcomers in the Japanese workplace, it is necessary to please the seniors.Under Gogol's surveillance, buying coffee was just to cover the action of answering the phone.

It felt like he was playing a game with Ayatsuji pedestrians... Dazai took a deep breath and thought about how to deal with it.

【six】

As an officer or colleague, Gogol is difficult to get along with, and as an opponent or enemy, Gogol is difficult to deal with.

Dazai only felt that this person was unfathomable and extremely escaped. Uncharacteristically, Fyodor did not allow the new staff officer Dazai to perform tasks independently and conduct ability assessments and tests during this period. Instead, he let him go to Gogol's subordinates Doing odd jobs, assisting the dead soul organization, but not mentioning the reconstruction of the rats in the house of death in Yokohama, this can only show that Dazai has not gained the slightest trust from Fyodor.

Based on this, it can be inferred that there is no absolute trust between Gogol and Fyodor, otherwise Gogol could have personally sent a letter to Dazai, the temporary subordinate who carried out the mission, and insisted on asking Fyodor to call to test , Gogol has a high probability of listening to the call.

The Five Decays of Heaven and Man are quite unique in the Mafia. Dazai has only seen two high-level officials, both tall and handsome young men, especially Gogol, whose hair resembles the silvery moonlight flowing in a snowy night. The temperament and the appearance only in the dream, one can almost conclude that Gogol is definitely not suitable to be an agent.

Dazai rubbed his brows. It was impossible for him to forget Gogol's appearance. Before, he never believed Dr. Xie Ye's strict classification of boys' appearance types, and now he had to believe it.

This first-class female doctor of the Armed Detective Agency once generously taught the girls how to evaluate boys in the detective agency, and divided them into different types according to their looks, body, conduct, and talents. So handsome that it makes people forget the vulgarity.

And Gogol is more than unforgettable, he is so handsome that he can brainwash people.

Too much publicity means that ordinary parts are more likely to be ignored. Dazai tried his best to put a double mosaic on that face in his heart, but he still couldn't find the slightest breath in Gogol that could integrate into human society.

Dazai looked at Kunikida, who was also braided. His partner’s rubber bands were cheap and practical ones bought in the commercial street, or mixed nylon and cotton hair ropes bought near the shrine. They were low-key and retained their original functions. .

Kunikida's own way of tying his hair can make it easy for people to judge whether he is impatient when he gets up early, and when Kunikida's mother comes to visit this young man who lives alone, he will tie the hair into a lovely knot.

But Gogol wore a big bow at the end of his hair, which was the opposite of what normal people did, which Dazai couldn't figure out at all.The only thing Dazai can be sure of is that Gogol is a genius who does not need an audience, and his decision-making ability and execution ability are superb.

Dazai expressed his full understanding of Fyodor's behavior. In his eyes, the students from the Frunze Military Academy were more than sensitive but not strong enough to withstand pressure, so he immediately threw the new staff officer to someone like Gogol. People toss and toss, it will be easier to reveal flaws.

The members of the dead soul organization will contact him soon, and there is not much time for Dazai to rest.

"Have you taken any medicine these days?" Dr. Yosano came over with a glass of water, "Your complexion is not much better than those in the morgue. Go and take a rest, Kunikida is already making your bed."

"Thank you...I'm fine," Dazai smiled, "You're too nervous."

Kunikida suddenly walked around from behind, "Your forehead is very hot, go to sleep."

His lanky partner nodded, pocketing the pocket watch he was playing with.

Kunikida clearly saw that the pocket watch was engraved with the unique logo of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, "Who from the Moscow Mafia gave it to you?"

"Yes, Mr. Fei Jia, the leader of the House of the Dead," Dazai tapped his lips with his fingertips, "Mr. Hanako has also carefully checked it. This is just an ordinary pocket watch."

Kunikida and Dr. Yosano looked at each other, they were adults gossiping, Dazai unconsciously touched his lips, in the eyes of the two, it could be said that he was reminiscing about something inappropriate for children, they couldn't directly ask Dazai if he was Bullying, it doesn't matter if you are in good health, you need to go to the hospital to check for infectious diseases.

"My first mission is to assist Gogol's apostle of the sky," Dazai stretched his waist, "I guess Gogol will not contact me directly, but will use the detective agency to observe my reaction. "

As soon as the voice fell, the landline of the detective agency rang.

【Seven】

"We just received a case entrustment from the military and police," said the young and capable secretary Haruno Kirako. "Recently, there have been continuous explosions in abandoned areas of the city. Fortunately, there were no casualties. The cause of the crime is unknown. The military and police hope that the detective agency will Assist in handling."

Hearing that there were no casualties, Kunikida breathed a sigh of relief: "The explosion in the abandoned area did not cause any damage. It is not a vicious incident in itself, but the ability to obtain such a large amount of explosives in a short period of time cannot be underestimated."

Dazai blinked his eyes: "The black market in Yokohama also has rules of the black market, and there will be records of underground transactions. If you check it, you will know whether the explosives have been circulated and transported secretly. We can also go to Mount Hakone to check the accounts. Recently, explosives are needed in Yokohama. The only places where there are only Hakone Mountain scenic spots, the Chinatown that is being expanded, and the row of buildings behind Yamashita Park that urgently need to be demolished.”

Kunikida nodded: "If you find out the source and the location of consumption, you can find the gray area in the middle of the difference. You should check again to see if there are any suspicious vehicles."

His partner looked at him helplessly.

Not to mention that the shopkeepers in Chinatown are all shrewd Shanghainese. They only need a construction permit, and they can hide a lot of explosives in the boats transporting potatoes, radishes and onions for their own use. This part is impossible to track down.

The row of buildings behind Yamashita Park is too conspicuous, facing the middle school branch of Yokohama University of Commerce. Since the campus violence incident three years ago, the military and police have been strictly arresting middle school girls who skipped classes and went shopping.To transport explosives under the noses of curious middle school students and military police, I'm afraid there is something wrong with my brain.

The only thing left is Mount Hakone. There are all highways nearby, and the control of suspicious vehicles is almost strict.

"This vehicle transporting explosives must not be suspicious. Not only is it not suspicious, it is even a vehicle that we see every day but is easy to ignore." Dazai pointed to the taxi parked downstairs, "Look."

The taxi drivers are all registered employees in the establishment, which is very in line with the characteristics of the members of the Dead Souls organization. Dazai thought that Gogol would not simply want to carry out a few explosions in this place.

Perhaps the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, like the Armed Detective Agency, will have an entry test, and Dazai can only become the official staff officer of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man if he passes the test.

Dazai gently stroked the pocket watch in his pocket, and secretly made up his mind that instead of waiting for the entrance test, he should take the initiative to attack.He decided to work with Kunikida to solve this seemingly simple incident, which actually has a lot to do with the Dead Souls organization.

There are five locations where the explosion occurred, namely: the dilapidated factory building of Yokohama Light Industry, the old high school building where Kunikida once studied, the reservoir of the abandoned waterworks, the wasteland that was converted into a cemetery due to soil pollution, and the abandoned warehouse of the former National Hospital.

When Dazai heard the word "hospital", Dazai's breathing stagnated, and his fingertips reflexively stroked his lower lip.The cold and unfeeling kiss from Fyodor made him mentally tortured but unable to extricate himself, he even looked forward to a call from Siberia like a little girl in love.

"These places seem unrelated," Dazai reached into his pocket and touched the pocket watch, "How about starting the investigation from the places Kunikida is familiar with?"

Gogol's eyeliner must be watching his actions now. As a "newcomer to the detective agency", Dazai must follow behind Kunikida obediently, and if necessary, he can sacrifice the interests of the detective agency if Ranpo permits. Complete undercover missions.

The main campus of Yokohama University of Commerce’s junior high school was relocated three years ago, and the old school buildings remained here. According to Kunikida, there were very good memories here.

"Please allow me to go in. That thing is really important to me. It fell in the former school building. I know that this is a bombing ban, not a demolition. Please do me a favor. I will definitely not destroy the site. It will be soon." can find it!"

The slender and gentle woman bowed at ninety degrees to the tense military police. She was carrying a small suitcase and a long white dress reminiscent of the blooming lilies in Yokohama in spring.

The woman must have rushed here right after getting off the plane. Dazai noticed that this small suitcase still had a security check label on it, and the suitcase itself was a style that a certain British brand had only launched in the past few days.She also carried scones from British Airways in her small handbag, which was so hard it made a ridiculous bulge out of the small handbag.

This girl's handsome appearance hit Kunikida's aesthetics hard.Presumably some stories will happen, Dazai took a deep breath, he also knew that he should have given up long ago, and he should not be too greedy.

"Miss Sasaki, may I have your taxi receipt?" Dazai showed a gentle and weak smile, "I hope you can find the lost item with the help of Mr. Kunikida, the famous detective."

The woman tilted her head and blinked her eyes, as if wondering why Dazai knew her name, followed Dazai's gaze and saw that Nobuko Sasaki's name was printed on the security label of the suitcase.She smiled and took out the invoice from her handbag and handed it to Dazai. Dazai thanked his partner and gave his partner a "you understand" look, then turned and left gracefully.

Dazai didn't have time to worry about the amazing gaze Kunikida gave to that woman. Their life-and-death partner was teased and hinted at several times by the president, but nothing happened. Love can only be met with the right person. This is what a three-year-old child understands reason.

He has to work, and he has to go immediately to find the taxi that Nobuko Sasaki took.

The seemingly illogical behavior of looking for a taxi has actually been rationally deduced, and Sasaki's seemingly reasonable speech is full of sense of contradiction after careful exploration.

How could a girl who just got off the plane and has a relationship with the high school of Yokohama University of Commerce learn about the explosion at the old high school site in such a short period of time?

Before the bombing case is investigated clearly, the media will never disclose such news that disturbs the hearts of the people. Yokohama's tradition is not to cause trouble for others. Such words that will make single girls panic will never be said indiscriminately .

To get to Yokohama Taxi Dispatching Headquarters, you need to take the subway. When Dazai was thinking about the change in his pocket, a taxi stopped in front of Dazai.

"My staff officer, get in the car."

The delicate face that Dazai had been thinking about for two days and one night completely appeared in front of his eyes as the window glass slowly lowered. The young man in the east only felt that the gentleness of the spring breeze was as mellow as Moscow spirits.
