The two walked to the door of their own compartment.

——Dazai stopped in his tracks.

The little child raised his face to look at the person, with a tolerant and tolerant expression in his eyes.

It was as if he knew what was going to happen next.

"I'm already safe, you go to the lounge."

Dazai said softly.

"...Scotland is waiting for you."

"..."

Bourbon couldn't explain why, but he raised his hand abruptly, pressed it on his heart, and pressed it.

An indescribable panic swept over him, and even he became weak and wanted to shrink back.

"I..." Bourbon smiled palely, "I'll be by the young master's side, okay?"

Dazai shook his head and raised his right hand.

Bourbon knelt down on one knee, lowered his head, and let the child put his small palm on his cheek.

He tried his best to draw courage from this action.

"Go."

Dazai said softly.

"I'll wait for you to come back."

(Why not)

('I'll wait for you to come back'--)

Bourbon didn't ask the question.

He was afraid that once he heard the answer, he would lose the courage to face his fate.

***

Dazai watched Bourbon's figure go away.

It wasn't until he could no longer see the man's straight and lonely back that he stretched out his hand and knocked on the door.

When he knocked on the door, he was different from the habit of the Bourbon mystics, who used some codes such as "three long and two short", "long long and short".

Dazai can knock however he likes—anyway, there is no door in this world that he is not qualified to walk in.

Soon, the carriage door opened.

Dazai looked at Ley who came to open the door with great interest, and walked into the carriage quietly.

——Meet the female high school student's eyes.

Slightly playful black short hair, green eyes with unique lower eyelashes.

Dress in unisex casual attire.

It was Sera Masumi who was originally traveling with Mori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.

Absent from a whole case, it turned out to be here.

Dazai didn't say much about it, and let Ley close the car door behind him.

He walked to the opposite sofa and sat down, glanced at the table.

Immediately afterwards, without a word of dialogue, Ley took the initiative to step forward.

The man bent down to rummage in the bag that Bourbon had brought, and sure enough, he found several new, unopened bottles of soda.

...Thinking about the easy-going and delicate young master in front of him, Ley still didn't hand over the soda after all.

He squatted down directly, and neatly smoothed back the long black hair hanging in front of him with his right hand, rummaged through the bag with his left hand, and finally found a thermos.

When you open it and smell it, the mouth of the cup immediately overflows with the fragrance of honey and grapefruit water.

Shake it again, the water temperature is still hot.

Should it be said that it is fortunate that Ley lacks the nerve to complain, at least he didn't say something like "What the hell is that Bourbon guy thinking in his head", "Even this kind of thing is prepared to carry in advance", "Dangtang Boben shouldn't Will my job be a male mother?" and other speeches made by the collapsed characters.

The taciturn man just carefully checked the safety of food and drink, poured a glass of water for Dazai, put it on the table and pushed it over.

Then Ley finally turned around, breaking the silence of the room.

"You should go."

Ley said nonchalantly.

Stared at by such a pair of stern green pupils, Sera Masumi couldn't help lowering her eyes unwillingly.

But she didn't hesitate for long.

Maybe something was discovered during the ambush in the carriage, or maybe the brief conversation between the brother and sister that was unknown to everyone a moment ago played a role.

Sera took a deep breath.

When she raised her eyes again, even though the girl's eye sockets were still slightly red, she was able to show a bright smile as before, as always, as she had always gritted her teeth.

"Well. I'm leaving."

Sera Masumi licked her little tiger teeth:

"I won't be chasing you any more."

She stood up from the sofa, took two steps towards the door of the carriage, and bent down in front of Dazai again.

After being washed by tears, the green eyes became more transparent, showing a stubbornness that became more frustrated and courageous.

"You... all have to live well."

Sera said in a low voice.

Too many words to suffocate, secrets sticking out of the throat.

Relatives who have blood relations are forced to be strangers, and words of concern are buried in the blank space of silence.

Only the eyes don't lie.

Dazai also smiled, and lightly touched the girl's green eyes with his fingers again.

"Let's go," Dazai said softly, "If you don't go, it will be too late."

What's too late?Is the train approaching the terminal, or are two other dangerous characters coming back soon?

For questions like this, when Sera Masumi held her breath and heard the sound outside the carriage, but in the end only Dazai knocked on the door, the answer emerged in her heart.

Her trust needs no words.Sera Masumi finally smiled again, and left the carriage without looking back.

"..."

"..."

The rooms that maintain the classic decoration of the last century are still exquisite and luxurious.

But there is already a comfortable and idle atmosphere, and it will never come back.

"So, my sister has dealt with it?"

Dazai asked quietly.

Ley simply and neatly eliminated the traces left by Sera Masumi in the compartment, and finally sat down on the sofa opposite Dazai. He was not annoyed by the words, and just nodded: "Yes."

This person is also decisive, since Dazai helped three female high school students give him game cards once, and this time he took away Bourbon in advance, the part that has been leaked, Ley is also in front of the "little master". I didn't deliberately hide it.

Dazai looked sideways at the man's bass bag on the sofa, and suddenly asked:

"The briefcase is also taken care of?"

Ley: "...um."

The ace of the FBI couldn't think for a moment that he had already erased all clues, how could Dazai figure out what he had done to the briefcase he had hidden under the sofa before.

But no matter what, the information that was investigated by the FBI investigators and handed over to him by Kamel waiting at the station must not be seen by the other two high-level members of the organization.

Once it was discovered by the organization that Dazai, as the "heir", had let the family members of the prisoners go in the Twilight Pavilion, Ley couldn't imagine what would happen to Dazai who didn't fit his status.

Dazai sighed: "...Don't you really think about having a good talk? Even I can't stand it anymore."

He has nothing to do with these three iron-headed red squares, "I can make a separate room for you, seriously."

Ley did not reply to this sentence, but carefully opened a line of curtains to see how far it was from the terminal.

After a quick mental calculation, Ley stood up and began to pack the luggage of several people—the focus was on Bourbon's pile of food and drink specially prepared for the young master.

While tidying up, Ley asked casually, "What did they do?"

"—So you confirmed that Schindler was dead in the sniper scope, and you returned to the car to have a secret talk with your sister in advance, and didn't stay at the scene to pay attention to the follow-up." Dazai grasped a detail and quickly pushed back, and found that Ley's face turned helplessly. After looking at him, he spread his hands innocently: "I didn't mean to pry into your secret on purpose."

It's just that the speed of thinking is too fast, and it's not his fault.

Ley didn't tense up because of this, and just whispered, "If you really don't want to say..."

"No. That's just-"

Dazai fell silent.

"You have said goodbye to your sister."

"But he hasn't."

"I don't want...he didn't even have a chance to say goodbye."

For some unknown reason, Dazai touched the bandage over his left eye and smiled slightly.

【Barrage:

"Very well I have no more..."

"Whip the corpse repeatedly, die and die..."

"Serial stabbing, spinning around..."

"Ke Xuejie finished killing and killing again, and You Zai finished stabbing, and there was a whiskey trio in the end..."

It can be said that there are corpses all over the field, and weeping uncontrollably.

The rain of knives was too dense, and even the barrage was weak.

"So, why did Touzi go...? I heard Zai Zai mention the word 'farewell', and the conditioned reflex started to cause phantom pain all over my body..."

"Uh, I think I'm already stupid. It's hard to wait for a famous detective to solve the case in "The Train" and "The Dead on Baker Street". Every word has a deep meaning..."

"I understand, but I don't understand at all.jpg"

"Zai, don't you have amnesia?? This IQ has beaten me for 1 years, and you are indeed a born worryer!!"

"Wait, talk back to Tuozi, please? Combined with the previous conversation between Youzai and Scotland, I always have a bad guess: Could Scotland have, already, sacrificed, and then recalled under the protection of artificial intelligence ..."

"In that case, after all, the timelines of Scotland and Bourbon seem to be different...? That's right! If Bourbon hated Shuichi Akai because of red, it should be after Scotland's death!"

"Well, if you say that, wouldn't Dazai ask Bourbon to say goodbye——"

"?! Wait, wait, don't! Don't!!! It's too cruel! Could it be that this is the last chance? If we don't see the last one now, Scotland will disappear from the real world????"

The barrage started to panic!

"But--wait a minute! Ahhhhh I saw it!! I'm alive!!!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

"Scotland! Scotland--!!!"

The barrage suddenly became chaotic, swiping the screen like flying. 】

There was a regular knock on the door.

Bourbon pushed open the car door.

The blond-haired, black-skinned man had a heavy complexion, moving his right arm while walking.

"What's wrong?" Dazai asked in a low voice.

While saying this, the boy stared at the door without blinking.

In the next second, Dazai rarely showed a relaxed smile without any impurities.

"—In the middle of speaking, the entire wine rack in the lounge suddenly collapsed."

Scotland said.

It was rare for him to look a bit embarrassed. His originally neat shirt was completely wet with red wine, his hair was also wet and stuck to his forehead, and he rolled up his sleeves that were in the way as he walked.

But when he saw Dazai, Scotland smiled.

He eagerly stepped forward in two or three steps, knelt down on one knee in front of Dazai, and stretched out his right hand to the child.

Looking into those shining blue eyes, Dazai also smiled, and put his hand on the man's palm.

"Not yet."

"Not yet. . . . I'm glad."

Dazai said softly.

And Scotland held the child's hand with great care and pressed his forehead.

"Me too," said Scotland, "...me too."

The terminus has arrived.

at the same time--

The mobile phones of the three people played the music melody of "Seven Children" at the exact moment.

That is, a message from "that gentleman".

Just opening it for a glance, the expressions of the three of them all changed.

The content of the message is very simple, just a photo.

The background is the Pavilion of Twilight.

The character is a boy about eight years old, with short hair at the ears and a well-fitting kimono.

The title is "The New Heir".

That is--
