Dazai said he wanted to marry me after amnesia

A positioning system was installed in the bug, so Osamu Dazai could quickly grasp the location of Kotoko Iwanaga.

Ever since he knew she was going to get up, he felt uneasy in his heart.

——This guy will even disregard his own life in order to stabilize the situation!

This uneasiness reached its peak when hearing Kotoko confronting the Majin.

Osamu Dazai didn't know what the specific effect of Tosi's supernatural power was, but one thing was certain, except for him who was nullified, no one else could have physical contact with Tosi.

A touch,? Death.

So, the moment he saw Tuosi touching Yanyong Qinzi, he thought of everything that would happen next.

The contracted kite pupil stared at this scene intently.

Qinzi will die.

He will catch Tuosi and repay the pain twice.

Use all means to dig out all the hidden conspiracy of the mouse.

In the end smashed Tuosi's layout,? Give him the heaviest blow!

and then?

then……

Osamu Dazai's lips trembled, and his breath was like broken gasps.

For the first time, he couldn't explain his feelings.

Then...there wouldn't be such an annoying guy pestering him all the time.

Can't be driven away,? Ghost spirits,? Self-concept is very firm.The most important thing is that she deeply understands herself, and she understands the position close to her inner center.

——There is no such guy anymore.

What's the matter with this feeling of being unable to breathe in the chest?

What is the heaviest emotion besides shock, sadness, pain.

Is it regret?

Regret not letting her know my feelings? Regret that I can't explain my feelings well.

All these reasoning and feelings last for a second——

classified as blank.

The blank space is exactly the same as before meeting Kotoko Iwanaga.

It was as if nothing in the world could interest him anymore.

Nothing but despair.

……

however.

Osamu Dazai imagined,? The scene of blood spattering on the spot did not happen.

The pale Russian was also slightly surprised.

"……what?"

"Excuse me."

Yan Yong Qinzi turned the cane and used it to move away Tosi's hand, "I don't like people other than Mr. Dazai touching my head."

She was as calm as if she didn't realize that she had just walked through the gate of hell.

Tosi looked at his hand and blinked, "Can I change my hand?"

Do you want another one?

Tosi suddenly grinned.

A bad premonition suddenly arose in Yan Yong Qinzi's heart.

"Qinzi!"

"Master Princess!"

The monster pushed her aside.She subconsciously raised her hand to protect her head, and the sharp point of the knife slashed across the side of her hand.

——Just now, while talking to divert her attention, Tosi slid out a knife from his cuff, trying to kill her.

Tuo Si was not discouraged after failing to succeed in two consecutive shots, he was not a member of the martial arts faction.

He looked at the blood on the silver blade, shrugged slightly, and turned his gaze to Osamu Dazai behind Kotoko Iwanaga.

"It's really murderous, Dazai-kun."

Mr. Dazai?

Yan Yong Qinzi has to be vigilant about Tosi's every move, and can't look back at Osamu Dazai's expression.

Her gloves and the bracelet were scratched, and the small cube on the bracelet fell to Tuosi's feet.

Tosi: "...Huh?"

The cube rapidly expands and splits into four corners.The whole plane is like a muscle being pulled apart, with a huge eye in the center.

Tosi realized something was wrong, but it was too late.

——He met Chuo's eyes.

For someone like Tuosi who is full of calculations, let alone a minute of time in his head, it may be in the next few years or ten years.

The cube surrounded him, binding his hands and feet.Tosi struggled desperately, but it was of no use.

He could only watch helplessly as the cube closed and shrunk——

Tosi was sealed.

The man in black behind Osamu Dazai was dumbfounded.

what's the situation?

Ability? !

After pretending to be a person, the cube became the size of a palm, and Kotoko Iwanaga stepped forward to pick it up.

The magic man becomes the Rubik's cube.

A shadow fell before her.

Osamu Dazai pursed his lips tightly, held her hand as if he was looking at something, his eyebrows were slightly tightened.

Yan Yong Qinzi didn't pay much attention, her current focus was on the Rubik's Cube.

Although I don't know the reason for it, but Chief Dazai gave it, so you can rest assured.

He was right, it really came in handy.

Ah yes, since Dazai-san is here...

Iwanaga Kotoko looked up: "How is Mr. Chuya?"

The first thing you care about is Zhongye?

Dazai Osamu's expression became a little ugly for a moment, and he kept covering it up.

"It's nothing," he said casually, "that little dwarf, he's alive and kicking again after a nap."

"It is indeed Mr. Chuya who can defeat such a strong monster! It's too powerful!"

Can't help but boast!

Dazai Osamu: "..."

Perhaps, Mr. Verlaine doesn't want to fight anymore, and he doesn't want to become a monster either.

That's why Mr. Chuya specially let Mr. Chuya beat him.

By the way, she still has work to do!

"I leave this to you, Dazai-san."

Iwanaga Kotoko stuffed the Rubik's Cube into Dazai Osamu's arms, withdrew his hand, and hurriedly ran down the mountain, and his figure quickly disappeared into the forest.

Came here specially, but was left alone by Osamu Dazai: "..."

In his hand, he still held the bandage that he had just pulled out of his pocket and was about to bandage Iwanaga Kotoko.

The night wind blows, adding a bit of loneliness.

The surrounding subordinates pursed their lips tightly, not daring to speak out.Everyone knows that to provoke the boss at this time is to kill oneself.

After Mr. Nakaya defeated the monster, after Mr. Dazai went to close the filth, he didn't know what he heard from the earphone, his face changed, and then he rushed to this side.

They had never seen Mr. Dazai run so fast! !

It was the same when confronting that white hat.

Mr. Dazai kept pointing his gun at the white hat, his expression was terribly cold.

He was also worried that the white hat might take the girl hostage, so he didn't dare to shoot easily.

Everyone can see that Mr. Dazai attaches great importance to that girl.

But now...

That girl left Dazai-san and ran away...she ran away...

Even Mr. Chuya is the one who cares first.

Kimura couldn't hold back: "Pfft."

Osamu Dazai glanced over coldly.

Kimura knelt down.

The fierce battle is over and the night sky is restored.

The residual gravitational gravitational field in the air is also gradually restored.

After confirming that no one could see, Kotoko Iwanaga jumped onto the bone spirit and ran towards Verlaine's location.

Now I can breathe a little easier.

The next thing involved confidentiality, she took off the bug, threw it to the monster, and let it run in another direction.

The wound on the hand was not deep, the flesh was cut a little, and the bleeding had stopped.

She took off the tattered gloves, raised her hand, faced the moonlight, and looked at the shimmering ring.

The things given by Chief Dazai must not be as simple as accessories.

She knew that Alice was Mori Ogai's supernatural ability, so after wearing the ring and touching Alice, and the other party disappeared, she was sure.

——The ring has Mr. Dazai's supernatural ability, so he is disqualified from the world.

The Rubik's Cube is estimated to be some kind of sealing device.

The leader Dazai in the future knows who was the most dangerous enemy in the past.

Even if she went back to the past, she was still protecting her.

The leader of Dazai.

With a soft emotion in her heart, Yan Yong Qinzi whispered: "You have expected everything."

Then I can't lose either.

……

Verlaine lies on the ruins of a collapsed viaduct.

There are destroyed building materials, concrete, and iron frames everywhere, comparable to the scene of an earthquake.

Verlaine's life all came from the singularity, and after being defeated by Chuya Chuya, his energy disappeared.

Verlaine, too, was about to die.

"Don't bother me just yet."

Stopping the bone spirit, Iwanaga Kotoko got off it softly, hid behind a piece of concrete, and did not approach it.

Verlaine is talking to Rimbaud.

Yes, Rimbaud, Rimbaud who should have died more than a year ago.

In other words, he was indeed dead, and the figure that appeared in front of Verlaine was a supernatural life form.

Rimbaud turned himself into a supernatural life form.

His ability [color painting collection] can create a golden subspace.All matter in the subspace can be manipulated according to Rimbaud's wishes.

But now, the golden cube pierced Verlaine's chest, keeping his heart beating.

"Why help me?"

Verlaine was very puzzled.

"It was I who betrayed you and shot you from behind! If it wasn't like this, Huangbatu wouldn't have appeared, and you wouldn't have been involved in it, severely injured and amnesiac, and died in a foreign land in the end."

"Why on earth, Rimbaud, you should hate me more! Beat me up and strangle me!"

"……It's not like this."

Rimbaud squatted down, put his hands on Verlaine's heart, and injected energy.

"On the contrary, I have always wanted to apologize to you."

Rimbaud and Verlaine are spy partners who have worked together for many years.

Rimbaud knew that Verlaine felt despair and pain about his birth, and he tried hard to pull Verlaine out of that pain, but he couldn't.

There was a deep gap in Verlaine's heart.

From Verlaine's point of view, no matter what Rimbaud says, he is standing on the commanding heights of human beings and judging another species.

Very pale.

Rimbaud was always sorry for not being able to help Verlaine.

As he was dying, he thought about what he could really do for Verlaine.

He turned himself into a supernatural life form, and then used the supernatural power on himself, repeating this infinitely, and finally generated a self-contradictory singularity——

This singularity replaces the monster Giger and gives Verlaine life.

"Sorry, the previous gift didn't please you," Rimbaud said with a final smile, "just take this as a substitute - happy birthday. I'm glad you were born."*

Verlaine finally realized something, Gujing Wubo's face became flustered.

"Wait a moment!"

"Wait, Rimbaud, don't go!"

The absorption of the singularity point by him means that Rimbaud will no longer exist.

disappeared completely.

"Why, why..."

Verlaine felt a great loss, he took a few steps forward, and knelt powerlessly in front of the ruins.

"Did you wait for me for a year just for this kind of thing... It's obvious that I betrayed you, otherwise you wouldn't..."

"Why do you do this for someone like me, Rimbaud."

Verlaine's clenched fist trembled, and he hammered the messy ground.

He clenched his teeth and couldn't cry, but the sound was more mournful than any bitter cry.

"Sorry for not being able to repay your friendship. Sorry for not thanking me for my birthday present. Sorry for not being around anymore and I'm just sad now..."*

"sorry Sorry sorry……"

No one responded to him.

Verlaine knelt on the ground, raised his head, and closed his eyes.

Like a badly wounded wolf.

He didn't know how long he kept this position, maybe 10 minutes, 10 minutes, maybe an hour, or two hours.

Hearing the sound of the cane hitting the ground, Verlaine opened his eyes and glanced to the side.

His expression was no longer the arrogance it used to be, only numbness and emptiness remained.

Verlaine didn't look surprised by her appearance.

There was nothing to interest him now.

"I sympathize with your experience, Mr. Verlaine," said Iwanaga Kotoko, "What is lost can never come back."

Although it was a bit ruthless to make this grief-stricken man soberly discuss the next thing with her immediately, Iwanaga Kotoko said it calmly.

"You caused huge chaos in Yokohama. Next, the European government should send an investigation team to investigate the matter thoroughly."

Verlaine's assassination was just the tip of the iceberg.

There are countless secrets involved, all of which are disputes at the national level.

For example, Verlaine was once a supernatural life form created by the mastermind of the European anti-government movement "Fun", but the European government used him instead to make him a spy.

For example, N of the Military Research Institute once stole the European government's procedure book and used it to implement the Huangbatu plan.It is hard to say that there is no instigation from the neon government.

For another example, more than nine years ago, Verlaine and Rimbaud, who were spies for the European government, sneaked into the Yokohama military base in order to capture Huangbatu.

More than a year ago, Rimbaud, who regained his memory, launched another attack on Chuya and Osamu Dazai.

Now, the assassination king entered Neon, but the European government concealed it from the Neon government.

……

The secrets and purposes of each period and country are intertwined, like a messy gunpowder line, which will detonate if you don't pay attention.

That's why the investigation team is required to come to negotiate and come to a conclusion that both parties are satisfied with.

"The Port Mafia/Hand/Party will receive the European investigative team. Although it is an illegal organization, it is the person who has the whole picture this time. Moreover, the European government has concealed this matter from the neon government from the very beginning."

Iwanaga Kotoko smiled slightly.

"You really are an incredible fuse for explosives."

Unfortunately, this lead no longer has that invincible power.

Rimbaud's singularity is far weaker than that of Warcraft Jiger.

"In short, if the European government knows that you are not dead, they will definitely take you back no matter how much they pay."

Kotoko Iwanaga poked her head with her finger.

"After all, the information in your mind is the key to their life and death."

But Verlaine, who lost his strength, also lost his value.

So after taking it back, the European government will destroy him.

"If Mr. Sen wants to protect you, he should imprison you in a dark place within the black/hand/party and let you play the remaining role."

"In any case, your subsequent treatment will not be much better."

"but--"

Iwanaga Kotoko straightened her skirt and sat down on the ruins, "I can help you."

"There is no third person who knows that you are still alive. I can hide your tracks for you, and let the investigation team get the conclusion that you died due to exhaustion of energy."

"When the turmoil passes, you will reappear in a different form. I will provide you with a new identity."

Verlaine, who had been silent all along, finally showed a hint of puzzlement.

"……why?"

"Because I happen to be short of a bodyguard."

Yan Yongqinzi smiled and said: "Compared with the unknown guy at home, I still prefer to choose by myself."

"Well, are you willing to serve me?"

"..."

Verlaine didn't say a word, and looked away lightly.

Whether it was brought back by the European authorities, or imprisoned by the port mafia, it didn't matter to him.

th.

Having expected this result a long time ago, Kotoko Iwanaga exhaled and closed her eyes.

What comes next is the key.

She opened her eyes and spread her hands.

A golden cube was suspended in the palm, and inside was a wisp of flame-like smoke.Bright particles of golden light emanate around the cube.

Verlaine's face suddenly changed!

He stared at the thing in her hand, and his dead expression came back to life.

"This is?!"

"Mr. Rimbaud's subspace, you are very familiar with it."

Of course he knows!

but--

"why?!"

A man is like a man who has almost drowned and managed to come up, desperately grabbing the last piece of driftwood.

"Why would you—"

Why do you have Rimbaud's subspace!

Why would you know!

Why are you showing me now!

Why did you appear here at this exact moment!

"!"

A chill hit Verlaine's heart, and then spread throughout his body.

It's like the feeling of being unable to move when you meet a god dressed in white in the cedar forest of a shrine.

He originally thought that the other party was just a girl who fanatically pursued Osamu Dazai, her mind was full of messy things.

During the incident at the institute, his opinion of her changed, but that was all.

Only now did he realize that this girl, he hadn't seen through it from the very beginning!

Iwanaga Kotoko showed a knowing smile.

"When I first stepped into Yokohama, a ghost told me that I found a spirit body that had died more than a year ago and was still lingering in this land."

It was Rimbaud.

"As it happens, I have the ability to talk to them."

And in a sense, the spirit body can't defy her, can't lie to her.

Rimbaud told her all about the past.

After learning of Verlaine's arrival, she let the monster sneak into N's research institute and took away the command gun and gear.

Realizing that Rimbaud had the intention of sacrificing himself, Kotoko Iwanaga kept a careful eye and kept part of Rimbaud's soul.

It is the light smoke in the cube.

This is not a game, she is not that capable of resurrecting people, but...

"As long as he is by my side, his soul will gradually recover. As for the time...maybe one or two years, maybe four or five years, maybe longer, who knows."

"After recovering completely, you can send him to the other side to accept reincarnation. If there is a person with supernatural powers who can recast the body, maybe they can create miracles."

"Compared to disappearing from the world, this result is much better, isn't it?"

Yan Yongqin smiled slightly, "Mr. Verlaine."

It was also the first time she did this.

It is Rimbaud who possesses the power of a transcendent and stubbornly wants to do something for his friends and stay in the world. This can be done.

This is her bargaining chip with Verlaine.

Verlaine followed the wisp of smoke with his eyes, and there was a glimmer of light jumping in his eyes.

He can't organize words well yet.

Iwanaga Kotoko spread out her other hand.

In the same subspace, there are command guns and watches in it.

"This is the hiding place provided by Mr. Rimbaud. No one can find it but me and him. He wants to protect you."

She withdraws her hand.

"Understood, Mr. Verlaine, if I want to control you, I can do it from the beginning."

"It's just that I prefer to use reason to solve it than force."

Verlaine stared at her intently for a long time as if he had never known her before.

Finally, he said with difficulty: "You don't need bodyguards at all, do you?"

"who said it."

Kotoko Iwanaga lifted her bangs, and the luster of polymer materials flashed through her prosthetic eyes.

"I'm just a weak girl with one eye and one foot."

Verlaine's attitude was a little strange.

Yan Yong Qinzi felt that he should have been persuaded by himself, but hesitated, as if he was confused.

She recalled the past that Rimbaud had briefly mentioned.

Verlaine, who was liberated from the command of the Mu Shen, was just like Zhong Yuanzhong who had just come out of the experimental tank, almost blank, vigilant against everything in the world.

Afterwards, what Verlaine learned was mostly espionage and assassination techniques.Rimbaud wanted to influence him, but Verlaine always had a high wall in his heart.

Until now, the high wall has collapsed.

Verlaine understood the loss, learned how to cherish, tasted the sorrow, and picked up hope again.

He needs time to digest the feelings of this series of people.

She let the monster secretly stop her, and it will take time for the port gangsters/hands/party to find them.

Yan Yongqin waited patiently, and gently tapped the knee with the tip of the lowered finger, adding pressure to Verlaine invisibly.

Now Verlaine had to be persuaded.

Not only as a bodyguard, Verlaine will still be useful in the future.

"You know my situation."

Verlaine raised his hand and could see his fingers trembling with weakness.

"If you often step into dangerous areas, with my current strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you perfectly."

"All I used to do was assassination work, protecting people... I never did it."

Iwanaga Kotoko shrugged.

"What's the matter, if you don't know how to learn."

"Mr. Rimbaud has never done anything to save people, right? But didn't he save you?"

"What's more, if you know assassination, don't you know how to protect against assassination?"

"also……"

She stared into Verlaine's eyes, "Mr. Verlaine's strength is still possible to recover."

Verlaine's eyes widened.

"……what?"

"Just my speculation."

Iwanaga Kotoko threw something over.

Verlaine took a look, it was his pear: "?"

"Tosi's purpose is to release the monster Jiger, and the re-implantation of command time is in a hurry, so his focus will be on 'release'."

"As long as the purpose of 'release' is achieved, as for how much to release and whether there is any remaining, it may not be fully written."

"—There may still be residual abilities in your body."

"Originally, this remnant was not enough to support your life. But Mr. Rimbaud replaced the job of giving you life, so the remaining abilities can be restored if you cultivate them slowly."

Kotoko Iwanaga lifted the cube containing the soul.

"The remaining piece of soul of Mr. Rimbaud also told me this just now."

The light of the Warp half-lit her face.

There was a supercilious indifference in the purple pupil.

The girl sits on a high place with a dignified posture, with the night and the full moon behind her.

It was clear that there was nothing, but there seemed to be a biting cold wind blowing around her, which made people feel awe for no reason.

Verlaine suddenly remembered that Kotoko Iwanaga once said that she was also an inhuman existence, but he didn't pay attention at that time.

"You... who are you?"

"I am the god of wisdom called demons and goblins."

Demons and ghosts and... gods.

Yan Yong Qinzi smiled slightly, most of the indifference on her body dissipated, and she looked sweet and lovely.

"Since Mr. Rimbaud gave you a birthday present, let me give you a present too."

She bent down slightly, and stretched her hand forward, as if handing a birthday cake.

"Happy birthday, Monsieur Verlaine."

It's... Rimbaud.

The only person he wants to see right now.

It is a glimmer of hope after despair.

Verlaine stretched out his hand uncontrollably and tremblingly.

Yanyong Qinzi suddenly turned her palm and made a fist with five fingers, and the cube disappeared in her hand.

The light dissipated.

"...!"

Verlaine was still in the motion of reaching out his hand to grab it, and he froze.

"Then let me ask again, Monsieur Verlaine."

Iwanaga Kotoko raised a smile.

"—are you willing to serve me?"
