my brother is scumbag

12. Trace

Dazai thinks that perhaps a person with superhuman abilities who can manipulate animals is spying on me.

"Just because it's not malicious doesn't mean it's safe," he said.

So in order to catch that guy, even a bird near the mafia building began to be caught and inspected. As for the person in charge of catching...it was naturally Chuya.

After all, his gravity is very convenient for him to fly and land.

"At first glance, he is the most suitable candidate for bird hunting. Of course, this kind of heavy responsibility can only be undertaken by Chuya."

At that time, Dazai said this with a smile, making people wonder whether he really thought so, or just playing around with an excuse.

On the other hand, Dazai began to investigate those with supernatural powers, and the interrogation department under Ozaki-san was responsible for opening the interrogation.

All mafia became active because of this incident.

But in the end, no useful news was found.

The only one or two people in Yokohama with supernatural powers related to animals proved to have nothing to do with this matter.

13. Workaholic

Dazai looked very unhappy.

"Recently, I haven't felt that gaze anymore, maybe I quit because of the difficulties." I said something not too distracted while dealing with the work left over from yesterday's laziness in enjoying snacks.

I feel that the longer I've been the leader, the more I can understand my brother's obsession with changing Lolita's costumes to a certain extent.

No matter how social animals are, there will be times when they want to relax, I sigh in my heart.

Ah, that's not true either.

It suddenly occurred to me that there is another amazing guy in mafia.

That was a member I joined when I just usurped my brother's position a few years ago.

If I remember correctly, he seems to have a good relationship with Dazai and Oda.

Speaking of work is also very serious.

The name...is called Ango Sakaguchi.

I can remember him not only because of his relationship with Dazai and Oda, but also because of his fame in the intelligence department.

Not only is he famous for his work ability, but also his attitude towards work.

There is a sentence that comes out of his mouth, which makes even women shy away:

——As long as I stay off work, it is equivalent to not going to work.

……hiss.

Just thinking about this sentence makes me shudder.

In a sense, such a person is really scary.

Of course, as a subordinate, this kind of awareness is probably what every boss wants.

14. disappear

When I looked up, I found that even Chuya was looking at me with disapproval.

"...But," I corrected my posture, coughed lightly, and said solemnly:

"The guy who spies on the mafia leader must learn a lesson."

But like now, if you can't even find someone, there is no way.

I added this sentence in my mind.

15. Discard

Since that feather landed in my office, the feeling of being spied on has disappeared.

And I didn't encounter any assassination after that, and I didn't hear any information about the mafia leader appeared on the black market.

The most important thing is that everyone did not catch that person.

So it looks like this is over.

Chuya has not always been my guard. After all, he is a cadre. Mafia has many tasks that only he can handle.

It's just that when I went out, he asked me not to go out alone like before, at least I had to be protected by mafia in the dark.

Of course I have no opinion.

even though……

I doubt if something really happens, will it be me, the leader, to protect them in the end.

Dazai also bent his lips when he heard my joke.

"If they can't even do this kind of thing well, then there's no need to waste food." He said very embarrassingly in a brisk tone.

"It's better to discard such useless subordinates as soon as possible."

16. Guard candidates

The person who is responsible for protecting the safety of the leader when he travels naturally cannot be treated casually.

In addition to the people hiding in the dark, there must be a lot of bodyguards. Of course, the number of people can be reduced.

One of the final candidates was Akutagawa Ryunosuke appointed by Dazai.

The other one is from the assassination team. He looks ordinary, but it can be seen that he is not very old, and he is only about twenty. It is not against the law to follow the young leader.

17. Itachi

I looked at the two people who were selected, and my eyes fell on the shorter one first.

"Akutagawa."

"Yes!"

The boy whose name was called by me straightened his back, "I will protect the leader!" His eyes showed a clear fierce light, and he said loudly, "Before those dangers get close to the leader, I will get rid of them ! Definitely won’t disappoint Dazai-san!... Cough, cough cough.”

Because he spoke too forcefully, he couldn't help clenching his fists against his mouth, and coughed a few times suppressedly, but his eyes were fixed on me all the time, as if he was ready to stare at me forever.

I:"……"

It doesn't have to be.

Although I haven't started yet, I seem to feel the headaches that will appear in the future.

I sighed and turned to look at the other person.

According to the information, this talent has joined the assassination team for less than half a year, but his training results are very good, and he is also highly valued by his superiors.

After all, he has already given him the task of guarding the leader, and it can be seen that he really values ​​it.

I looked down at the information above.

This person is called Itachi.

When I joined mafia to fill in the information, the statement given was that because I was an orphan, I only had a first name and no surname.

18. Attention

I don't know why, but I can't help but focus on Itachi.

Obviously, whether it is his appearance, voice, or height, he is very ordinary. He is the type who will immediately become inconspicuous when standing in the crowd, and is very suitable for being an assassin.

Compared with him, Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who has a gloomy temperament, half black and half white hair hanging down on both sides, and who coughs from time to time due to lung disease, has a much stronger sense of presence.

But I still pay more attention to ita sword.

This kind of attention doesn't mean paying attention all the time, but that when the gaze inadvertently passes by, they will subconsciously pause on him for a second or two.

The body reacts faster than the brain.

19. Losing and winning

In the beginning, when I went out with these two people behind me, no one dared to approach me within a few meters of the center point.

This is mainly because ordinary people can't hold back Akutagawa's stare at all.

Finally, under my reminder, Akutagawa restrained himself a bit, at least he didn't look so murderous, and could scare the passing children into tears.

Itachi's sense of presence is weaker and quieter.

But every time some minor situation arises, his reaction is always faster than Akutagawa's.

So Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who was somewhat restrained, seemed to be aroused to be competitive, and his eyes staring at Itachi became more and more fierce.

Afterwards I heard that Akutagawa Ryunosuke submitted a battle application to Itachi.

Kind of curious.

So when I heard about it again, I strolled over.

In the end, I happened to see the scene where Itachi didn't evade Akutagawa Ryunosuke's attack and was held by Rashomon's throat.

"I lost." Itachi said calmly.

"hateful……"

But Akutagawa Ryunosuke's expression looked very angry, and his body trembled, "Are you kidding me, I don't need your release!!"

I asked Yin who was standing next to me.

Silver whispered to me that Akutagawa lost several times in the previous fights.

I raised my eyebrows.

20. Praise and jealousy

Akutagawa Ryunosuke seems to have started to unilaterally target Itachi.

It is specifically manifested in the killing of eyes, and as long as it is free time, it will send out fighting requests.

Especially when Dazai inadvertently praised Juyi Taidao:

"Ah, Itachi-kun's tea is well brewed~"

At that moment, I always felt that Akutagawa Ryunosuke's eyes were about to burst into flames.

That is the flame of jealousy.

I clicked my tongue in my heart, did I actually take Dazai as my target?

I don't know whether to say that this young man is very courageous, or that he has narrowed the road.

22. Decision

For talented people, being the leader's guard is not a very good path.

So after a while, as an enlightened leader, I asked Akutagawa Ryunosuke and Itachi about their thoughts.

Itachi: "I think I'm more used to being the leader of the guard."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke opened his mouth, and when he was about to speak, I reluctantly interrupted him first, otherwise I suspect that he might make the same choice as him because he wanted to fight Itachi .

"Recently Dazai has been saying that the people under his command are not very useful." I pointedly said.

"..." Akutagawa Ryunosuke was suspiciously silent for a while, then lowered his head, "All follow the orders of the leader."

I knew that whenever Dazai was mentioned, Akutagawa's attitude would change.

Really not surprised at all.

After Akutagawa left, I looked at Itachi again.

"Are you sure you don't want to go to other departments? I think if you return to the assassination team, you should be able to become the captain soon."

Itachi's expression was calm, not wavering at all.

It looks like he really thinks it's his goal to be my bodyguard.

"Hmm." I pondered for a while, but decided to leave him some room.

"If you change your mind someday, you can tell me."

21. Blanket

In the dead of night, it is another day for social animals to stay up late.

I yawned, my eyelids were getting heavy and my jaw was propped up, and I slowly closed my eyes.

Half asleep and half awake, I heard a slight movement behind me.

It's Itachi who is in charge of the protection task tonight.

Although I still closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep, my attention was always on the outside world.

He should have stood in front of me.

Is he... looking at me?

I waited patiently.

But in the end, my shoulders were heavy, and a warm blanket covered my body.

22. Dreamland

He watched her silently.

Exactly the same as in the dream, he thought.

So, is he dreaming again?

But this time the dream seemed to last a bit too long.

Even if it's a joke from God, it doesn't matter.

He knew that what he had done could not be repeated, but...

It just looks good that way.

He wanted to reach out and touch her face, but he knew she wasn't asleep.

Even if it is disguised, it does not mean that it is foolproof. If you get too close, you may still be discovered.

If found...

There must be loathing and hatred in those eyes looking at him.

So the free hand moved, but finally restrained it.

Then he shook off the blanket he brought over and covered her body.
