The whole of Yokohama thought we were together

Seeing that Osamu Dazai left the orphanage without looking back, Atsushi Nakajima turned to look at the person who had just come out of the office at this time, "Mr. Mori, Mr. Dazai...?"

Mori Ogai sighed, his expression now looks like a doctor who is coming out of the operating room to tell his family members that he has tried his best, especially now that the white coat has not been taken off, it looks even more like that.

Atsushi Nakajima trembled inexplicably.

"I don't know what happened, it made him reject his original identity so much that he didn't even recognize the existence of the other party subconsciously." Mori Ogai touched his chin, a little distressed, "All I can tell him is what I know Yes, but I don't know what that child did at the end of his life... However, if starting over is his own choice, maybe it's not a bad thing..."

Nakajima Atsushi was confused, and Mori Ogai seemed to be talking to himself rather than explaining to him.

After the words were finished, he seemed to have figured something out, clapped his hands, and said happily: "Okay! I'm going to find little Alice, where is she?"

...Only this sentence is really speaking to them.

Izumi Kyouka pointed in the direction of the kitchen, and Mori Ogai called "Little Alice" and left here.

Atsushi Nakajima was a little helpless, he looked at the back of the other party leaving gracefully, and after struggling for a while, an idea came to his mind.

--

"Ah, Oda, you're back, just in time, come here."

As soon as he returned to the detective agency, before he sat down at his desk, Kunikida Doppo called him to arrange an errand, and this errand was a bit strange.

"...Call Dazai?" Oda Sakunosuke looked around, but he did not see the other party, but he was still a little confused, "Why?"

"This guy skipped work while I was talking to Tanizaki! He finished his work! He didn't do it!" Kunikida Doppo was a little mad, "When I invited him to join, I didn't say that he was like Akutagawa. , A guy who runs away whenever he sees a document or a report!"

"For Dazai, there may be something wrong, it shouldn't be for no reason..."

The further back Oda Sakunosuke said this sentence, the clearer the picture in his mind was that the other party invited him to skip work together in the Supernatural Secret Service Division, so he subconsciously shut up.

Seeing that he didn't finish his sentence, Kunikida Doppo was a little surprised: "Huh?"

"...It's nothing." Oda Sakunosuke changed the topic, "Why should I call?"

"I let them try all the idle people in the agency, but that guy just hung up the phone every time. Aren't you his roommate? Besides, you have such a good relationship, he probably won't hang up on you " Kunikida Doppo seemed to be so angry that his stomach hurt, he rubbed his abdomen, "When the call is connected, you tell him to come back quickly."

Oda Sakunosuke nodded, and while making a call, he was thinking about what the other party said just now.

[Dazai and I... have a good relationship?Speaking of which, Dazai seemed to be in a good mood in the past few days after he came back from the Supernatural Secret Service Division, and he seldom mentioned "suicide". We lived together for nearly a week, and although I got along very happily with him, There is no contradiction, but, can such a relationship be counted as good? ]

[It seems that the relationship with other colleagues is no different, right? ]

However, until his thoughts came to an end, there was no movement on the phone in his hand——

Dazai did not hang up his phone, he just didn't answer it.

Kunikida Doppo looked at the phone and frowned, "This guy doesn't even answer your calls?"

Oda Sakunosuke felt that it was expected, and even had a feeling of "as expected".

All the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind disappeared in an instant, he shook his head, "Maybe Dazai is busy with something."

However, before he finished speaking, the cell phone that had been hung up because no one answered suddenly rang again.

It was displayed on the screen that the other party was calling.

This time it was Kunikida Doppo's turn to express "I'll just say it".

Oda Sakunosuke was stunned for a moment, then picked up the phone, "Dazai?"

A lively voice came from the other side: "You called me just now, what's the matter?"

"Ah, yes." Oda Sakunosuke glanced at Kunikida Doppo, and said, "Kunikida-senpai hopes that you can come back to work—"

His words were interrupted by a scream from the phone, the voice was so loud that even Kunikida Dupo who was next to him could hear it clearly, which made his expression change immediately.

Although the voice was a little hoarse, the shock and fear could still be heard.

Oda Sakunosuke was stunned: "Dazai?"

"Ah, I'm listening." Osamu Dazai's voice sounded the same as before.

Oda Sakunosuke: "What happened to you?"

The background sound on the phone was chaotic, as if there were many people talking and moving around, Osamu Dazai didn't speak for a moment, and at the same time, the noise gradually became smaller, as if he was getting farther away.

"It's nothing, it's just that the suicide method I chose scared a certain lady." Dazai Osamu sighed, "But you don't have to worry, Tanizaki-kun is here."

"Where are you?" Oda Sakunosuke gestured to Kunikida Doppo for the door, and when he nodded, he immediately walked out.

"Me," Osamu Dazai said, "I'm in the convenience store closest to the detective agency."

--

When Oda Sakunosuke arrived at the convenience store, a police car was parked at the door, and the policeman next to him was on the phone, and his appearance looked familiar at first glance.

But Sakunosuke Oda has never seriously remembered people who don't care, so he only took a look and looked away. When he was about to go in, he saw two policemen carrying a man out.

The man's face was covered with blood, and there were marks of being pinched on his neck. His eyes were closed, and he seemed to have lost consciousness.In view of his miserable appearance, Oda Sakunosuke gave way to several people without looking too much, and then walked towards the inside at a faster pace.

The shelves in the convenience store were almost completely down, and the goods were scattered all over the store. The police not far from the entrance were talking with Junichiro Tanizaki and Naomi Tanizaki. As they approached, the voices of the conversation became more and more clear.

"...I just want to protect my sister. If I don't make a move, Naomi will be hurt by him." Tanizaki Junichiro's voice sounded a little cold, "If my sister is hurt and I don't respond, then I'm still a man !"

Police: "Mr. Tanizaki almost strangled him..."

"His knife almost scratched Naomi." Tanizaki Junichiro looked at him, "Besides, didn't I kill him?"

police:"……"

[It's too late to wait until you die! ]

We couldn't continue talking about this topic, so the police simply asked someone else, "Is Miss Tanizaki okay?"

"I'm fine." Naomi Tanizaki shook her head, "Mr. Dazai helped me. If Mr. Dazai didn't stand in front of me, I might be in danger."

Junichiro Tanizaki was a little scared: "I really have to thank Dazai-san for this matter--hey, where is Mr. Dazai?"

He looked around, but he didn't find Dazai Osamu among the crowd who dealt with the mess, but instead let him see another colleague.

[Isn't that... Mr. Oda? ]

--

Oda Sakunosuke found Osamu Dazai from behind the only shelf that did not fall down. When he saw him, he sat on a chair with his back to the entrance, his hands hanging by his side, and he let the blood drip from his fingertips. , but there is no meaning to deal with it at all.

The sound in the store was chaotic, but he sat there alone, and it looked like he had a quiet sense of loneliness.

Oda Sakunosuke approached, until he got to his side, Dazai Osamu looked up as if he had just heard footsteps.

The moment he saw the person coming, his originally indifferent expression suddenly became alive. He even forgot the injury on his hand at that moment, and raised his bloody palm to greet him.

It's just that before the words were spoken, he gasped in pain.

Oda Sakunosuke looked at the first aid kit in front of him, "Why are you not bleeding?"

"I'm experiencing the 'blood loss suicide method'." Osamu Dazai said.

Oda Sakunosuke: "What about the result of the experience?"

"Very bad." Osamu Dazai had an ugly expression, "It hurts like hell."

Hearing this, Oda Sakunosuke sat down opposite him, reached out to open the first-aid kit, "Then I'll bandage it."

Osamu Dazai didn't speak, but obediently stretched out his hand.

Oda Sakunosuke's movements are not gentle, but his technique is very skilled, as if he often does this kind of thing, and his dressing skills are very good, the bandages are neatly wrapped, which looks very pleasing to the eye.

Oda Sakunosuke wrapped up the wound that almost spanned the entire palm of the opponent, and asked, "What happened here?"

"It's nothing, I just happened to see a man walking into this convenience store with a knife when I was passing by, and at the same time I thought of a great way to commit suicide, so I followed in." When Osamu Dazai said this, He frowned unhappily, "But I wanted him to aim the knife at my heart, but he insisted on aiming at other women, so I had no choice but to stop him."

"Ah, by the way," Osamu Dazai said to him, "I was busy picking up his knife when you called me, so I didn't receive your call. I'll call you back later when I'm free. , A lady who came to the store to buy something happened to see the blood on my hand, and subconsciously yelled, didn't it scare you at that time?"

Oda Sakunosuke's movements paused, and he didn't say until the wound on Dazai Osamu's hand was bandaged, "I'm fine, but Kunikida-senpai was taken aback."

Osamu Dazai thought of this person's hesitation just now, approached him, and asked suspiciously: "What were you thinking at that time?"

The hesitation on Oda Sakunosuke's face became more obvious.

It wasn't until Osamu Dazai asked again that he touched his nose and said slowly, "I thought you were playing... screaming chicken."

Dazai Osamu: "..."

Osamu Dazai: "...Pfft."
