Dazai's girlfriend Natsume
Chapter 23 Protection
Port Mafia——
Natsume Chiaya heard from other members of the Armed Detective Agency that, walking on the road, you can also see the five tallest Mafia buildings in the port.Port Mafia, she knew, was the city's darkness itself.Their power is beyond doubt,? If Mr. Dazai falls into their hands...
Natsume Chiaya pinched her palm with her fingertips, the pain calmed her down.
"Don't tell anyone", that is, only she received the text message.So, why her?She is just an ordinary member who has not been in the club for a long time. Whether it is sent to the president, Mr. Kunikida, or Mr. Ranpo, it is obviously much more useful than her, isn't it?
Also, the Armed Detective Agency has to handle so many documents every day, what does this so-called "confidential document" refer to?
Natsume Chiaya read that text message over and over again, trying to find some clues.
At this time, she desperately hopes that she can have the reasoning ability of Mr. Ranpo.Unfortunately, not only did she not,? She also couldn't gamble with Mr. Dazai's life,? She couldn't tell the people of the Armed Detective Agency, including Mr. Ranpo.
Until she entered the Armed Detective Agency, Chiaya Natsume was still thinking about that text message.
It was rare to see Natsume Chiaya distracted while working, Haruno Kirako asked with concern: "Miss Natsume, did you not have a good rest last night?"
Even Xiao Mi jumped into Natsume Chiaya's arms, and rubbed her palms, as if to comfort her.
Natsume Chiaya came back to her senses, touched Xiaomi, smiled at Kirako Haruno, and said cautiously: "Well, because Mr. Dazai agreed to come over to eat crab meat tempura last night, but he didn't show up. Wait until you fall asleep."
Haruno Kirako condemned: "Hey, how could Mr. Dazai do this? It's too much!"
——There is nothing unusual, it seems that she is really the only one who received the news.Natsume Chiaya lowered her eyes and bit the tip of her tongue to keep herself rational.
"Maybe Mr. Dazai didn't do it on purpose..." Atsushi Nakajima said weakly, "Did something happen to Mr. Dazai? His mobile phone is disconnected, and there is no sign of going back to the dormitory."
However, the reaction of everyone in the Armed Detective Agency was extremely flat.
Miyazawa Kenji in turn comforted Natsume Chiaya and Nakajima Atsushi: "Miss Natsume and Atsushi-kun don't worry, Mr. Dazai often does this. Soon, he will appear by himself."
"That's right, you don't need to think too much about it, Qian Ling," Yosano Akiko grabbed Natsume Chi Ling's shoulders, and said, "Come with me to go shopping. Didn't you say last time that you can go shopping together when you have time? The sun is not as good as hitting the sun, just today!"
Natsume Chiya hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
"Oh, Dun Jun is here too, come over and help carry things." Yosano Akiko said.
Atsushi Nakajima turned his head and saw that the other members of the Armed Detective Agency had long since disappeared without a trace.The corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. Whenever this happened, he would feel that he really entered the "legendary armed detective agency"?
But to be honest, I bought too many things with Akiko Yosano.Atsushi Nakajima was holding a bunch of shopping bags, if it wasn't for Chiaya Natsume helping him, he might not be able to see the way clearly.
After finally getting on the tram, Atsushi Nakajima heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Chiaya Natsume: "Thank you Miss Natsume, it's really like saving lives."
"It's okay." Natsume Chiaya rubbed Atsushi Nakajima's head, feeling like she was ruaing a little tiger.
Wait... Something seemed to flash through her mind, and Natsume Chiaya was shocked suddenly.
Tiger, "Mountain and Moon", Atsushi Nakajima...literary masters and supernatural beings...Natsume Soseki!
As if pushing away the clouds, an idea suddenly appeared in Natsume Chiaya's mind.
She immediately turned her head and asked Akiko Yosano who was sitting next to her: "Doctor Yosano, do you know Mr. Natsume Soseki?"
"Natsume-sensei? Of course I know, Natsume-sensei is a legendary supernatural being and the backing of our detective agency when it was founded [Note 2]." Yosano Akiko asked Natsume Chiaya: "Why did Qianling suddenly ask Natsume-sensei? "
"I just remembered one thing." Natsume Chiya lowered her eyes, and heard her tone unusually calm: "Someone asked me, Mr. Natsume Soseki. Maybe it's because of my surname, which made him have an illusion?"
Yes, how could she be so careless?She clearly knew that the writers in this world were different from the ones she was familiar with, but just because they were a little similar to the previous ones, it was just a coincidence.The people I met in the supermarket that day were definitely not ordinary people.He must have come here on purpose to ask Mr. Natsume Soseki.Because of her surname, she was mistaken for someone related to Mr. Natsume Soseki.
Mr. Natsume Soseki is the backing of the Armed Detective Agency, and she is "a relative of Mr. Natsume Soseki"—that's why he chose to send her a message.
In this way, the so-called confidential documents are probably just a cover.
Port Mafia's real purpose, is her.
Maybe Mr. Dazai was implicated by her.
Thinking of this, Natsume Qianling couldn't help pursing her lips.She must go to port Mafia, she must go to save people!
As for how to save...Natsume Chiya had a bold idea in her heart.
Seeing that Natsume Chiaya suddenly fell silent, Yosano Akiko asked suspiciously, "Chien..."
A huge explosion sounded, and the tram shook violently, interrupting Yosano Akiko's conversation.A man's voice sounded on the radio at the same time.
"..."
"Dun-jun, are you alright?"
Outside the clinic of the Armed Detective Agency, Atsushi Nakajima squatted by the door with his back against the wall.Hearing Natsume Chiaya's voice from above, he looked up and saw Natsume Chiaya and Kunikida Doppo standing in front of him.
"I'm fine..." Atsushi Nakajima glanced at the closed door of the infirmary, hesitant to speak: "That girl... Can Dr. Yosano be cured?"
"Believe in the supernatural ability of Dr. Yosano." Natsume Qianling bent down and patted his head reassuringly.
——As the "Nurse" of the Armed Detective Agency, Yosano Akiko's special ability "Please Don't Die" can heal people who are dying.
Kunikida Doppo's tone couldn't hear joy or anger: "Bringing trouble back again. [Note 1]"
Atsushi Nakajima was downcast.Natsume Chiaya smiled apologetically at Kunikida Doppo: "Sorry, Mr. Kunikida, I insisted on bringing that child back."
"No, no, no! I want to save her." Atsushi Nakajima said hurriedly, "It has nothing to do with Ms. Natsume!"
Kunikida Doppo sighed.
Looking at the closed door of the infirmary, Natsume Chiya recalled what happened a few hours ago.
After shopping with Akiko Yosano and Atsushi Nakajima, she was going back to the Armed Detective Agency by train.Unexpectedly, there were people from Port Mafia on the tram, and bombs were installed on the front and rear of the car.She and Akiko Yosano went to the front of the car, and Atsushi Nakajima went to the rear of the car.
In the end, the incident was dealt with, but the bomb found by Atsushi Nakajima was tied to a girl named Izumi Kyoka.
According to Kunikida Doppo, Izumi Kyoka was an assassin trained by Mafia at the port. In six months, he killed 35 people and cleaned up hostile organizations for Mafia at the port.
However, Atsushi Nakajima said that when he found Izumi Jinghua, she already had the will to die and did not want to kill any more, so she jumped out of the tram holding the bomb.
Atsushi Nakajima rescued her.
But, would she still want to live?
Natsume Chiaya didn't know.
Moreover, compared to this, what worries her even more is that the person who installed the bomb on the tram is named Kijiro Kajii, who keeps saying that Port Mafia came for Atsushi Nakajima's 70 billion reward, but he has been watching her.
Could this explosion be the urging of the port Mafia?Urge her to make a quick decision.
The door of the infirmary was pushed open, and Yosano Akiko said, "She's awake."
Kunikida Doppo and Nakajima Atsushi went in for questioning, Natsume Chiaya followed behind and asked Yosano Akiko: "Doctor Yosano, is she okay?"
"It's okay." Yosano Akiko was not in a good mood seeing Natsume Chiaya, and patted her on the shoulder: "Scared? Don't be afraid, as a member of the Armed Detective Agency, there will be more such situations in the future. Chiaya It’s better to get used to it as soon as possible.”
"……Um."
Natsume Qianling smiled at Yosano Akiko, the amber phoenix eyes were bright and firm, "I know, I won't be afraid."
She will not be afraid, she will definitely protect these people in the Armed Detective Agency and Mr. Dazai—even if she is about to face Mafia at the port.
"..."
Kunikida Doppo didn't ask anything over there, but Nakajima Atsushi agreed to Izumi Kyoka's request to eat fried tofu, which made Kunikida Doppo complain a lot, but let them go.Because he wanted to ask for information, Kunikida Doppo followed him.
Natsume Chiaya returned to her desk, took out a blank piece of paper, and wrote with a pen.
Naomi Tanizaki asked in confusion, "Didn't Ms. Natsume complete her task today? What are you writing?"
"Secret." Natsume Chiaya smiled slightly and said.It seemed that it was really a very important secret, and when Xiao Mi approached, she was gently pushed away, and she snorted on Xiao Mi's head: "You can't look at it, Xiao Mi."
Natsume Chiaya carefully folded the paper, put it in an envelope, sealed it, and handed it to Haruno Kirako: "Miss Haruno, please hand over this letter to the president in twelve hours. Don't let anyone see what's inside in the meantime, please."
"Eh? Okay, okay, Ms. Natsume." Kirakako Haruno took the letter, and asked a little puzzled, "Why didn't Ms. Natsume hand it over to the president herself?"
Natsume Chiaya replied calmly, "I have some things to deal with."
Haruno Kirako: "Huh?"
Kunikida Doppo came back at this time.Natsume Chiaya didn't continue to answer Kiraka Haruno, but asked him, "Mr. Kunikida, where are Atsushi and Kyoka-chan?"
"Oh, they? They should be on the way to the police station."
"Police station...?" Natsume Qianling was taken aback. Will the child be sent to be sentenced? 35 people, will it be a capital offense?She is still only 14 years old, and it is obviously not her intention to kill people.
Kunikida Doppo seemed to know what she was thinking, and said, "Miss Natsume, don't think too much. She is now a traitor of Port Mafia, and Port Mafia will not let her go even if she is not handed over to the military/police."
"That is to say, if Mafia at the port can not be held accountable, it doesn't have to be handed over to the military/police?" Natsume Qianling pursed her lips and asked.
Kunikida Doppo: "In theory, yes. But it's almost impossible."
"I see, thank you Kunikida-san."
"You're welcome."
Seeing that Natsume Chiaya didn't have anything to ask, Kunikida Doppo hurried into the president's office, ready to report the information he asked from Izumi Kyoka.
Natsume Chiaya picked up her shoulder bag and nodded to Haruno Kirako: "I would like to ask for a day off today. Can I ask Miss Haruno to tell Mr. Kunikida for me later?"
Kiraka Haruno quickly waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay, Ms. Natsume's tasks have been completed, and Mr. Kunikida will definitely not disagree."
"Mm. Miss Haruno, after twelve hours, please hand over the letter to the president."
Natsume Chiaya once again solemnly asked, and walked out of the Armed Detective Agency.Tanizaki Naomi and Haruno Kirako looked at her back and looked at each other.
Natsume Chiaya sent a message to Atsushi Nakajima in advance, saying that she was waiting for him and Izumi Kyoka at the police station.
Nakajima Atsushi replied after a while: "Miss Natsume, must it be like this?"She...will die. '
Across the screen, Natsume Chiya seemed to be able to see the sadness on Nakajima Atsushi's face.She was silent for a while, and replied: 'Sorry, Dunjun, I don't know either. '
If her idea is correct, there may be a slight possibility of saving Quan Jinghua, but she cannot tell Atsushi Nakajima.So as not to give him hope, but also let him down.
Natsume Chiaya sent a text message to the unknown number, and turned off the phone.
She sat on the bench, raised her head, put one hand on her forehead, shielded from the too dazzling sunlight in the middle of the afternoon, and looked at the sky.
Maybe the world she lives in is too peaceful?Natsume Chiya suddenly felt a little tired. She had never seen that there was so much blood and conspiracy, so much death and darkness in this world.
"I want to go home..."
Natsume Chiya whispered to herself, then laughed at herself softly: "Really, like a coward. At a time like this, you can't escape."
"..."
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Chiya Natsume heard Atsushi Nakajima's frustrated voice: "Miss Natsume."
Quan Jinghua stood beside him, holding a rabbit doll in his arms.Obviously, before accompanying Izumi Kyoka to the police station, Nakajima Atsushi took Izumi Kyoka to play around Yokohama.
Natsume Chiya got up, bent down and touched Izumi Kyoka's head: "Are you having fun?"
"Huh." Quan Jinghua paused, and then said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Natsume Chiya shook her head: "No need to apologize, you should have had a good time."
Nakajima Atsushi looked at Quan Jinghua silently, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, as if all the words were pale and powerless.
Quan Jinghua thanked Atsushi Nakajima in a low voice, hugged the rabbit doll in her arms tightly, and walked towards the police station, but Natsume Chiaya grabbed her arm.
Izumi Jinghua raised her head and saw Natsume Chiya smiling at her, helped her wipe off the cream on the corner of her mouth, handed her hand to Nakajima Atsushi, and said gently: "Dun Jun, bring Jinghua sauce back Detective agency. If Mr. Kunikida asks, just say I ordered it."
The two little guys suddenly opened their eyes wide, so shocked that even their expressions were somewhat similar.
Natsume Chiaya felt a little more relaxed, she smiled, then suddenly turned serious, and pushed Atsushi Nakajima away.
"Miss Natsume!"
Atsushi Nakajima staggered with Izumi Kyoka, barely able to stand still, when he saw the ferocious black beast rushing straight at Natsume Chiaya's face.Natsume Chiya stretched out her hand to grab the black beast, and the Rashomon beast that could tear apart space immediately remained motionless like a cat caught by the back of fate.
Natsume Qianling looked along the source of the black beast, a trace of surprise flashed across her face: "It's you?"
The young man in the black windbreaker was obviously the one she had saved from the curse spirit before.
Seeing Natsume Chiaya's appearance, Akutagawa Ryunosuke was also a little surprised, and even more surprised that she was able to catch the Rashomon beast with her bare hands.However, Ryunosuke Akutagawa's attention was quickly assigned to Atsushi Nakajima. He retracted the black beast, looked at Atsushi Nakajima, and sneered sarcastically: "That hit just now didn't pierce your heart, really! It's a pity, human tiger."
"Akutagawa Ryunosuke!" Atsushi Nakajima subconsciously stood in front of Natsume Chiaya and Izumi Kyoka, glaring at Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "What are you doing here?"
Natsume Chiya noticed that Izumi Kyoka was trembling, and even the cute expression of astonishment just now had turned into unconscious fear.She patted Izumi Kyoka on the head, then gently pushed Atsushi Nakajima away, stood in front of the two of them, and looked straight at Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "You are the one who came to pick me up? Assault on the detective agency when you come up, the sincerity of Mafia at the port , only this little?"
"Pick you up?" Akutagawa Ryunosuke said coldly, "Why, the Armed Detective Agency has fallen so low that even its members want to quit? I don't mind, so let's use the people behind you as an exchange."
"Looks like it's not you." Natsume Chiya also said indifferently: "Then I have nothing to say to you. Also, the Armed Detective Agency will not exchange the life of any member."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke frowned, and finally turned his gaze back to Natsume Chiaya: "It's ridiculous, it's just life, it's not worth mentioning."
Natsume Chiya: "According to what you say, shouldn't I save you that day?"
Atsushi Nakajima has never seen Miss Natsume like this.Ms. Natsume is recognized as the person with the best temper in the Armed Detective Agency. She often smiles, and even the corners of her eyes have a gentle smile.However, at this moment, she had a cold and serious face, and her amber phoenix eyes were lifted up, evoking the original fierce arrogance of this type of eyes, making people afraid to look directly at them.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke's tone was indifferent as if he didn't care about his own life: "I regret saving you? Maybe you should have shot me that day."
"Regret? I won't regret it." Natsume Qianling sneered, and said calmly: "If I give you a shot, what is the difference between me and your Mafia? Besides, I didn't save you, I was injured by the curse spirit people."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Natsume Chiaya to answer like this.
"It seems that the concubine came just right." A voice sounded, breaking the confrontation between Natsume Chiaya and Akutagawa Ryunosuke.
Hearing this voice, Quan Jinghua's pupils dilated suddenly, and her whole body trembled even more.Sensing this, Atsushi Nakajima carefully reached out and held her.
Natsume Qianling raised her eyes and followed the prestige.The red-haired woman got out of the car, holding an oil-paper umbrella, with an elegant and reserved smile: "Ms. Natsume, this is the first time we meet. I am Koyo Ozaki. I am here to pick you up by the order of Ogai-sama."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke was obviously confused: "Ms. Momiji?"
As one of the five cadres at the port Mafia, the leader actually asked Sister Hongye to pick him up?
"Akutagawa-kun." Ozaki Koyo slightly nodded to Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "What are you doing here? Did Master Ogai entrust this matter to you?"
"Capture Renhu and bring back Jinghua."
"Kyoka?" Koyo Ozaki was stunned, as if thinking of something, his eyes fell on Izumi Kyoka behind Natsume Chiaya, he stretched out his hand to her, and said softly: "Kyoka, good boy, come, come to my concubine Come."
"No, no...don't..." Quan Jinghua's teeth collided with each other, his voice trembling, and his whole body was full of resistance.
Ozaki Koyo's face suddenly turned cold, Natsume Chiaya moved her steps, covering Izumi Kyoka tightly: "Didn't you come to pick me up, Miss Ozaki? I think, maybe the Ogai-sama you are talking about won't Mind if I make a few small requests first?"
Koye Ozaki narrowed her eyes and looked directly at Chiaya Natsume, but she only looked back fearlessly.
"Okay." Ozaki Momiji chuckled, and dialed Mori Ogai's phone number: "Master Ogai, Miss Natsume has 'a few small requests'."
"Let's talk about it first." The other side replied with a smile.
Natsume Chiaya's keen hearing allowed her to distinguish that this voice was the person who spoke to her in the supermarket that day!
Her eyes sank, sure enough, she was too careless.If she could find out what was wrong in time, she probably wouldn't be so passive.
But now is not the time to regret, Natsume Chiaya didn't talk nonsense, and said straightforwardly: "First, no longer pursue Kyoka's betrayal."
Quan Jinghua trembled.The smile on Koyo Ozaki's face also quietly disappeared.
"Mafia, a huge port, I don't think it can't operate without a little girl?" Natsume Qianling protected Izumi Kyoka behind her, and said calmly: "If this is the case, I deeply regret it. "
Listening to the ridicule from the phone, Mori Ogai smiled instead of anger: "Well, yes, this is the first one, and what else?"
"Secondly, I want to know who is offering a reward to Dun Jun—that is, the human tiger you call."
"Third," Natsume Chiya paused, and gave up what she wanted to say before, and changed the way of saying: "Since you are threatening me with Mr. Dazai, I think, when I get to the port of Mafia, at least I can see a Dazai-san intact?"
Natsume Chiaya wanted Port Mafia to release Osamu Dazai.But she still wants to save Quan Jinghua, so she can only act on the bottom line of the port Mafia.
After all, the only bargaining chip she held was the surname "Natsume".
On the other side of the phone, Mori Ogai seemed to sigh with emotion: "Miss Natsume's request is not that small. It seems a little greedy to get so much just because you are a guest alone?"
Natsume Qianling said lightly: "That's a question for you to evaluate. Whether it's worth it or not, you know better than me."
"..."
After a while, Natsume Qianling heard the other side say: "Miss Natsume, do you like red wine?"
— the bet was won.
A boulder fell from the bottom of Natsume Qianling's heart, and said, "Clear tea is fine."
Koyo Ozaki took a deep look at Natsume Chiaya: "I remember, Akutagawa-kun, you are responsible for offering a reward to Renhu. Who is the person who offered him a reward?"
Akutagawa Ryunosuke said in a cold tone: "The combination, the bell tower attendant and the rat of the dead house jointly offer a reward."
Koyo Ozaki turned to Ryunosuke Akutagawa and said, "Master Ogai said that for Miss Natsume's sake, this arrest of Totora is suspended."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke glanced at Atsushi Nakajima, and sneered coldly: "You are lucky, Renhu. But next time, it won't be so easy to escape."
"Miss Natsume..." Nakajima Atsushi didn't respond to Akutagawa Ryunosuke's sarcasm, and murmured, "What happened?"
How, how did it become like this?Why does Miss Natsume know people from Port Mafia?And when did you save Akutagawa?Was she just doing a deal with Port Mafia?She was trading herself?Why did the people at Port Mafia want to meet Miss Natsume?And Mr. Dazai...Mr. Dazai was captured by Port Mafia?
Countless questions circled in Atsushi Nakajima's mind.
Atsushi Nakajima had never hated his own powerlessness so much.Perhaps Mr. Kunikida is right, his boat can only carry himself.
However, even so, he also wants everyone around him to be safe.
Natsume Chiaya did not answer Atsushi Nakajima.She gently pushed him and Izumi Kyoka: "Dun-jun, take Kyoka-chan back to the detective agency. Tell Mr. Kunikida, who is the person who offered you a reward."
After finishing speaking, Natsume Chiaya turned and walked towards Ozaki Koyo.
Atsushi Nakajima took a deep breath and shouted, "Miss Natsume, I'll go back and inform everyone!"
Natsume Chiaya turned her head, and curved her lips to him and Izumi Kyoka, her smile was as gentle as usual: "It's okay, I'll be fine."
Dungeon in Port Mafia.
Osamu Dazai just finished teasing his former partner, Nakahara Chuya, who is also one of the five major cadres, and successfully obtained from Nakahara Chuya the storage location of the information about Renhu.Seeing that Nakahara didn't please, and left angrily, Osamu Dazai felt much happier.
He rubbed his shoulders, brushed his hand over the bloodstains flowing down from the side of his face, and muttered: "This guy Zhongya is really so violent. The beating hurts too much."
Osamu Dazai bypassed the guards with ease, as naturally as if he was visiting his own back garden, touching the communication storage room on the second floor all the way.Facing the sophisticated combination lock, Osamu Dazai only thought for less than two seconds before firmly entering a number. The combination lock opened with a "click", and Osamu Dazai pushed the door in.
Osamu Dazai took out the ID card from Nakahara Nakaya's pocket from his windbreaker pocket, inserted it into the device, and operated the keyboard to skip the firewall that he had participated in designing in the port Mafia, and searched for the relevant reward content of Atsushi Nakajima.Soon, a series of information was displayed on the electronic screen.
Seeing the name and organization on the information, Osamu Dazai frowned, it was Fyodor again.Why is this guy everywhere?
Well, forget it, no matter so much, the purpose of coming to the port Mafia this time has been achieved, let's go back and rest first.
Osamu Dazai yawned lazily, and rational mist appeared from the corners of his eyes.Since I was caught in the Mafia port last night, I haven't slept for almost twenty hours. I even missed the crab meat tempura that Qian Ling sauce promised. I don't know if I can find a way to find her to make it up?It might work?After all, Chiya-chan has such a good temper.
Thinking of this, Dazai Osamu tapped on the keyboard and glanced at Natsume Chiaya's position.If there is nothing wrong, at this point in time, Chiya-chan should be in the armed investigation...
In port Mafia?
Dazai Osamu's drowsiness dissipated completely in an instant.His fingers fluttered and he tapped the keyboard quickly, calling up the information inside Natsume Chiaya's phone.
An "invitation" from an unknown number.
And, Natsume Chiaya's reply——
'I thought I was more valuable than the so-called confidential documents?Come and pick me up, I'm sure you know where I am.Also, it is forbidden to use any means against Dazai-san. '
"..."
Osamu Dazai paused slightly with his fingertips.
This serial number is an anonymous mobile phone number purchased by Mafia at the port a few years ago.The tone of the text message, if I guess right, is Mr. Mori.
Should it be said that he is indeed Mr. Mori?Even when this kind of meeting of the five major cadres is going to be held tomorrow to discuss his execution, they don't forget to trick him.No, maybe Mr. Mori knows that he won't sit still and simply use this to bring Qian Ling sauce over.
Osamu Dazai squeezed the center of his eyebrows with a headache, he didn't expect to be turned against by Mr. Mori.If he hadn't just installed a locator, I'm afraid it would be difficult to bring Qian Lingchan out of the port Mafia after he returned.
In fact, you can choose to ignore it, but in case Chiya-chan has nothing to do with Natsume-sensei, Mr. Mori will definitely not spare her life.
In fact, he didn't understand what the relationship between Chiya-chan and Natsume-sensei was.If it doesn't matter, Natsume-sensei's attention is unusual, but if it matters, Chiya-chan doesn't seem to know anything - he can't bet on that "what if".
And...he hasn't had his crab tempura yet, has he?
Osamu Dazai quickly made a decision, and walked towards the chief's office on the top floor of the central building.
The chief office of Port Mafia is the place with the best view of the Port Mafia Building and even the whole of Yokohama.Standing in front of the bright and clear floor-to-ceiling windows, you can have a panoramic view of this bustling and lively port city.
When Natsume Chiaya walked in here under the "guard" of Ozaki Koyo and Akutagawa Ryunosuke, the first thing she saw was the middle-aged man sitting behind the desk.Different from the white coat I wore in the supermarket that day, I was wearing a black windbreaker, and the dark red scarf was like flowing blood.The little girl with blond hair sat beside him and gave Natsume Chiya a harmless smile: "Miss Natsume."
Natsume Chiaya had guessed in advance, so facing Alice at this moment, she had no extra thoughts. She nodded and replied softly: "Miss Alice."
She looked straight at the middle-aged man again, thinking of the "Ogai-sama" Ozaki Koyo said, so it should be Mori Ogai: "Mr. Mori."
"Why didn't Ms. Natsume call me Alice? Alice-chan is fine too. Ms. Alice sounds so unfamiliar." Alice jumped off the chair, ran to Natsume Chiaya, and took her hand.
After all, Natsume Chiya couldn't bear to anger this little girl, Alice, and let her lead her, and replied, "Sorry, Miss Alice."
Alice shook Natsume Chiaya's hand: "Miss Natsume, do you hate me?"
"Don't care if I hate you." Natsume Chiaya patted Alice's head, her cold voice softened slightly: "As long as it's your choice."
She would not blame Alice, after all, their positions were different.What's more, just like Quan Jinghua, it's not them who are wrong, but the people who use them.
Mori Ogai's gaze moved slightly, and he gestured to Koyo Ozaki and Ryunosuke Akutagawa to signal them to back down.Then, he spoke in a friendly tone as if he had never threatened Natsume Chiaya: "Miss Natsume, welcome to the port Mafia, please sit down."
Natsume Chiaya didn't resist, and followed Alice to sit down on the sofa.
Mori Ogai got up, sat across from Natsume Chiaya, and pushed a cup of tea to Natsume Chiaya.Natsume Qianling took it, thanked her, but didn't drink.
"It's really difficult to meet Ms. Natsume. Ge Shan didn't do well last time, and was discovered by the Supernatural Secret Service Division, which is very distressing."
Ogai Mori looked at Chiaya Natsume with great interest. In terms of appearance alone, Chiaya Natsume didn't have much in common with Sensei Natsume.However, if it really doesn't matter, how could Natsume-sensei ask His Excellency Fukuzawa to stop him?
To be honest, with such a girl with bright eyes, it's no wonder Natsume-sensei would rather let her stay in the Armed Detective Agency than enter the port Mafia.
Ge Shan?
When Natsume Chiya thought of this name, a chill was like a winding poisonous snake, slowly climbing up from the ankle to the back, making the hair stand on end.It turned out that she was targeted so long ago, and she didn't know anything about it.If it wasn't for the president, I'm afraid she would have been taken to the port of Mafia that day.
Natsume Chiaya forcibly suppressed all thoughts, and asked, "Where is Mr. Dazai?"
She knew very well that she was not as good as this Mr. Sen when it came to speaking skills and scheming.That being the case, you must not follow his topic.
Mori Ogai said with a smile: "Don't worry, Miss Natsume, Dazai-kun is naturally intact. After all, I'm also his former boss, so I won't be so heartless."
Former boss?Mr. Dazai, it used to be... Mafia?
Natsume Chiaya was slightly taken aback.
Mori Ogai caught Natsume Chiaya's expression at this moment, and asked knowingly: "Huh? Didn't Dazai-kun tell Miss Natsume? Is it too much? But yes, Dazai-kun is always like this." He sighed leisurely, It seems that the old father is complaining about his ignorant son: "I finally came back to Port Mafia, and even threatened me with the secrets of Port Mafia. It is really difficult for me."
"The Armed Detective Agency and Port Mafia are not friendly in the first place. As a member of the Armed Detective Agency, Mr. Dazai is understandable for doing so." Natsume Chiaya said calmly.
"But Dazai-kun was obviously the best talent in Port Mafia before. Maybe you have heard of it? The youngest cadre in Port Mafia's history, Dazai Osamu." Mori Ogai folded his hands and propped it on his chin, with a kind of almost He said in an emotionless tone: "Of course, such an outstanding talent will be punished more severely after defecting, but unlike Quan Jinghua, who can be easily let go. He knows too much, doesn't he?" ?unless……"
unless?
Natsume Chiaya pursed her lips, knowing that Mori Ogai wanted her to continue asking.She didn't ask, and continued to change the subject: "About Jinghua, you promised not to pursue it. The leader of Mafia, a dignified port, shouldn't go back on his word?"
"Of course not." Mori Ogai said, "As long as Natsume-san is in Mafia at the port."
Natsume Chiaya chuckled softly: "It's not impossible for me to stay here forever. However, the first and second requirements have been fulfilled, and there is the third one—where is Mr. Dazai? Please don't change the subject again." , my patience is not that good."
Ogai Mori reckoned that Osamu Dazai must have run away long ago, where did he change into Osamu Dazai for Chiaya Natsume?
"Miss Natsume cares about Dazai-kun so much? Well, it seems that Dazai-kun is still very popular with girls all these years." Mori Ogai said, scanning Natsume Chiaya's face carefully to discern her emotions.
"The Armed Detective Agency will not give up any member." Natsume Chiaya said without answering Mori Ogai's question.
Her expression was so calm and open that Mori Ogai couldn't see any ambiguous factors at all.It's a pity, Mori Ogai thought, if this Natsume-san had that intention for Dazai-kun, he might still be able to use it.
"Okay, okay," Mori Ogai leaned back on the sofa, spread his hands, and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, Miss Natsume, Dazai-kun should not be in the port Mafia anymore." He said "Sorry", There was no apology in the words.
Natsume Chiya's heart tightened: "What do you mean?"
"With Dazai-kun's ability, he won't wait to be rescued obediently." Mori Ogai's mouth curled up without any smile: "He should have returned to the Armed Detective Agency long ago."
"So, Mr. Dazai is safe?" Natsume Chiaya confirmed to Mori Ogai again.
"Yes. Miss Natsume, only you are left behind."
You see, trust is such a fragile and vulnerable thing.As long as you poke it lightly, it will be like a bubble, fragmented.
Mori Ogai's smile seemed to be a silhouette frozen in the abyss, and the words he spit out were like a scorpion's tail needle, full of poison: "He didn't tell you, Miss Natsume. I really regret it."
Natsume Chiaya heard from other members of the Armed Detective Agency that, walking on the road, you can also see the five tallest Mafia buildings in the port.Port Mafia, she knew, was the city's darkness itself.Their power is beyond doubt,? If Mr. Dazai falls into their hands...
Natsume Chiaya pinched her palm with her fingertips, the pain calmed her down.
"Don't tell anyone", that is, only she received the text message.So, why her?She is just an ordinary member who has not been in the club for a long time. Whether it is sent to the president, Mr. Kunikida, or Mr. Ranpo, it is obviously much more useful than her, isn't it?
Also, the Armed Detective Agency has to handle so many documents every day, what does this so-called "confidential document" refer to?
Natsume Chiaya read that text message over and over again, trying to find some clues.
At this time, she desperately hopes that she can have the reasoning ability of Mr. Ranpo.Unfortunately, not only did she not,? She also couldn't gamble with Mr. Dazai's life,? She couldn't tell the people of the Armed Detective Agency, including Mr. Ranpo.
Until she entered the Armed Detective Agency, Chiaya Natsume was still thinking about that text message.
It was rare to see Natsume Chiaya distracted while working, Haruno Kirako asked with concern: "Miss Natsume, did you not have a good rest last night?"
Even Xiao Mi jumped into Natsume Chiaya's arms, and rubbed her palms, as if to comfort her.
Natsume Chiaya came back to her senses, touched Xiaomi, smiled at Kirako Haruno, and said cautiously: "Well, because Mr. Dazai agreed to come over to eat crab meat tempura last night, but he didn't show up. Wait until you fall asleep."
Haruno Kirako condemned: "Hey, how could Mr. Dazai do this? It's too much!"
——There is nothing unusual, it seems that she is really the only one who received the news.Natsume Chiaya lowered her eyes and bit the tip of her tongue to keep herself rational.
"Maybe Mr. Dazai didn't do it on purpose..." Atsushi Nakajima said weakly, "Did something happen to Mr. Dazai? His mobile phone is disconnected, and there is no sign of going back to the dormitory."
However, the reaction of everyone in the Armed Detective Agency was extremely flat.
Miyazawa Kenji in turn comforted Natsume Chiaya and Nakajima Atsushi: "Miss Natsume and Atsushi-kun don't worry, Mr. Dazai often does this. Soon, he will appear by himself."
"That's right, you don't need to think too much about it, Qian Ling," Yosano Akiko grabbed Natsume Chi Ling's shoulders, and said, "Come with me to go shopping. Didn't you say last time that you can go shopping together when you have time? The sun is not as good as hitting the sun, just today!"
Natsume Chiya hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
"Oh, Dun Jun is here too, come over and help carry things." Yosano Akiko said.
Atsushi Nakajima turned his head and saw that the other members of the Armed Detective Agency had long since disappeared without a trace.The corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. Whenever this happened, he would feel that he really entered the "legendary armed detective agency"?
But to be honest, I bought too many things with Akiko Yosano.Atsushi Nakajima was holding a bunch of shopping bags, if it wasn't for Chiaya Natsume helping him, he might not be able to see the way clearly.
After finally getting on the tram, Atsushi Nakajima heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Chiaya Natsume: "Thank you Miss Natsume, it's really like saving lives."
"It's okay." Natsume Chiaya rubbed Atsushi Nakajima's head, feeling like she was ruaing a little tiger.
Wait... Something seemed to flash through her mind, and Natsume Chiaya was shocked suddenly.
Tiger, "Mountain and Moon", Atsushi Nakajima...literary masters and supernatural beings...Natsume Soseki!
As if pushing away the clouds, an idea suddenly appeared in Natsume Chiaya's mind.
She immediately turned her head and asked Akiko Yosano who was sitting next to her: "Doctor Yosano, do you know Mr. Natsume Soseki?"
"Natsume-sensei? Of course I know, Natsume-sensei is a legendary supernatural being and the backing of our detective agency when it was founded [Note 2]." Yosano Akiko asked Natsume Chiaya: "Why did Qianling suddenly ask Natsume-sensei? "
"I just remembered one thing." Natsume Chiya lowered her eyes, and heard her tone unusually calm: "Someone asked me, Mr. Natsume Soseki. Maybe it's because of my surname, which made him have an illusion?"
Yes, how could she be so careless?She clearly knew that the writers in this world were different from the ones she was familiar with, but just because they were a little similar to the previous ones, it was just a coincidence.The people I met in the supermarket that day were definitely not ordinary people.He must have come here on purpose to ask Mr. Natsume Soseki.Because of her surname, she was mistaken for someone related to Mr. Natsume Soseki.
Mr. Natsume Soseki is the backing of the Armed Detective Agency, and she is "a relative of Mr. Natsume Soseki"—that's why he chose to send her a message.
In this way, the so-called confidential documents are probably just a cover.
Port Mafia's real purpose, is her.
Maybe Mr. Dazai was implicated by her.
Thinking of this, Natsume Qianling couldn't help pursing her lips.She must go to port Mafia, she must go to save people!
As for how to save...Natsume Chiya had a bold idea in her heart.
Seeing that Natsume Chiaya suddenly fell silent, Yosano Akiko asked suspiciously, "Chien..."
A huge explosion sounded, and the tram shook violently, interrupting Yosano Akiko's conversation.A man's voice sounded on the radio at the same time.
"..."
"Dun-jun, are you alright?"
Outside the clinic of the Armed Detective Agency, Atsushi Nakajima squatted by the door with his back against the wall.Hearing Natsume Chiaya's voice from above, he looked up and saw Natsume Chiaya and Kunikida Doppo standing in front of him.
"I'm fine..." Atsushi Nakajima glanced at the closed door of the infirmary, hesitant to speak: "That girl... Can Dr. Yosano be cured?"
"Believe in the supernatural ability of Dr. Yosano." Natsume Qianling bent down and patted his head reassuringly.
——As the "Nurse" of the Armed Detective Agency, Yosano Akiko's special ability "Please Don't Die" can heal people who are dying.
Kunikida Doppo's tone couldn't hear joy or anger: "Bringing trouble back again. [Note 1]"
Atsushi Nakajima was downcast.Natsume Chiaya smiled apologetically at Kunikida Doppo: "Sorry, Mr. Kunikida, I insisted on bringing that child back."
"No, no, no! I want to save her." Atsushi Nakajima said hurriedly, "It has nothing to do with Ms. Natsume!"
Kunikida Doppo sighed.
Looking at the closed door of the infirmary, Natsume Chiya recalled what happened a few hours ago.
After shopping with Akiko Yosano and Atsushi Nakajima, she was going back to the Armed Detective Agency by train.Unexpectedly, there were people from Port Mafia on the tram, and bombs were installed on the front and rear of the car.She and Akiko Yosano went to the front of the car, and Atsushi Nakajima went to the rear of the car.
In the end, the incident was dealt with, but the bomb found by Atsushi Nakajima was tied to a girl named Izumi Kyoka.
According to Kunikida Doppo, Izumi Kyoka was an assassin trained by Mafia at the port. In six months, he killed 35 people and cleaned up hostile organizations for Mafia at the port.
However, Atsushi Nakajima said that when he found Izumi Jinghua, she already had the will to die and did not want to kill any more, so she jumped out of the tram holding the bomb.
Atsushi Nakajima rescued her.
But, would she still want to live?
Natsume Chiaya didn't know.
Moreover, compared to this, what worries her even more is that the person who installed the bomb on the tram is named Kijiro Kajii, who keeps saying that Port Mafia came for Atsushi Nakajima's 70 billion reward, but he has been watching her.
Could this explosion be the urging of the port Mafia?Urge her to make a quick decision.
The door of the infirmary was pushed open, and Yosano Akiko said, "She's awake."
Kunikida Doppo and Nakajima Atsushi went in for questioning, Natsume Chiaya followed behind and asked Yosano Akiko: "Doctor Yosano, is she okay?"
"It's okay." Yosano Akiko was not in a good mood seeing Natsume Chiaya, and patted her on the shoulder: "Scared? Don't be afraid, as a member of the Armed Detective Agency, there will be more such situations in the future. Chiaya It’s better to get used to it as soon as possible.”
"……Um."
Natsume Qianling smiled at Yosano Akiko, the amber phoenix eyes were bright and firm, "I know, I won't be afraid."
She will not be afraid, she will definitely protect these people in the Armed Detective Agency and Mr. Dazai—even if she is about to face Mafia at the port.
"..."
Kunikida Doppo didn't ask anything over there, but Nakajima Atsushi agreed to Izumi Kyoka's request to eat fried tofu, which made Kunikida Doppo complain a lot, but let them go.Because he wanted to ask for information, Kunikida Doppo followed him.
Natsume Chiaya returned to her desk, took out a blank piece of paper, and wrote with a pen.
Naomi Tanizaki asked in confusion, "Didn't Ms. Natsume complete her task today? What are you writing?"
"Secret." Natsume Chiaya smiled slightly and said.It seemed that it was really a very important secret, and when Xiao Mi approached, she was gently pushed away, and she snorted on Xiao Mi's head: "You can't look at it, Xiao Mi."
Natsume Chiaya carefully folded the paper, put it in an envelope, sealed it, and handed it to Haruno Kirako: "Miss Haruno, please hand over this letter to the president in twelve hours. Don't let anyone see what's inside in the meantime, please."
"Eh? Okay, okay, Ms. Natsume." Kirakako Haruno took the letter, and asked a little puzzled, "Why didn't Ms. Natsume hand it over to the president herself?"
Natsume Chiaya replied calmly, "I have some things to deal with."
Haruno Kirako: "Huh?"
Kunikida Doppo came back at this time.Natsume Chiaya didn't continue to answer Kiraka Haruno, but asked him, "Mr. Kunikida, where are Atsushi and Kyoka-chan?"
"Oh, they? They should be on the way to the police station."
"Police station...?" Natsume Qianling was taken aback. Will the child be sent to be sentenced? 35 people, will it be a capital offense?She is still only 14 years old, and it is obviously not her intention to kill people.
Kunikida Doppo seemed to know what she was thinking, and said, "Miss Natsume, don't think too much. She is now a traitor of Port Mafia, and Port Mafia will not let her go even if she is not handed over to the military/police."
"That is to say, if Mafia at the port can not be held accountable, it doesn't have to be handed over to the military/police?" Natsume Qianling pursed her lips and asked.
Kunikida Doppo: "In theory, yes. But it's almost impossible."
"I see, thank you Kunikida-san."
"You're welcome."
Seeing that Natsume Chiaya didn't have anything to ask, Kunikida Doppo hurried into the president's office, ready to report the information he asked from Izumi Kyoka.
Natsume Chiaya picked up her shoulder bag and nodded to Haruno Kirako: "I would like to ask for a day off today. Can I ask Miss Haruno to tell Mr. Kunikida for me later?"
Kiraka Haruno quickly waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay, Ms. Natsume's tasks have been completed, and Mr. Kunikida will definitely not disagree."
"Mm. Miss Haruno, after twelve hours, please hand over the letter to the president."
Natsume Chiaya once again solemnly asked, and walked out of the Armed Detective Agency.Tanizaki Naomi and Haruno Kirako looked at her back and looked at each other.
Natsume Chiaya sent a message to Atsushi Nakajima in advance, saying that she was waiting for him and Izumi Kyoka at the police station.
Nakajima Atsushi replied after a while: "Miss Natsume, must it be like this?"She...will die. '
Across the screen, Natsume Chiya seemed to be able to see the sadness on Nakajima Atsushi's face.She was silent for a while, and replied: 'Sorry, Dunjun, I don't know either. '
If her idea is correct, there may be a slight possibility of saving Quan Jinghua, but she cannot tell Atsushi Nakajima.So as not to give him hope, but also let him down.
Natsume Chiaya sent a text message to the unknown number, and turned off the phone.
She sat on the bench, raised her head, put one hand on her forehead, shielded from the too dazzling sunlight in the middle of the afternoon, and looked at the sky.
Maybe the world she lives in is too peaceful?Natsume Chiya suddenly felt a little tired. She had never seen that there was so much blood and conspiracy, so much death and darkness in this world.
"I want to go home..."
Natsume Chiya whispered to herself, then laughed at herself softly: "Really, like a coward. At a time like this, you can't escape."
"..."
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Chiya Natsume heard Atsushi Nakajima's frustrated voice: "Miss Natsume."
Quan Jinghua stood beside him, holding a rabbit doll in his arms.Obviously, before accompanying Izumi Kyoka to the police station, Nakajima Atsushi took Izumi Kyoka to play around Yokohama.
Natsume Chiya got up, bent down and touched Izumi Kyoka's head: "Are you having fun?"
"Huh." Quan Jinghua paused, and then said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Natsume Chiya shook her head: "No need to apologize, you should have had a good time."
Nakajima Atsushi looked at Quan Jinghua silently, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, as if all the words were pale and powerless.
Quan Jinghua thanked Atsushi Nakajima in a low voice, hugged the rabbit doll in her arms tightly, and walked towards the police station, but Natsume Chiaya grabbed her arm.
Izumi Jinghua raised her head and saw Natsume Chiya smiling at her, helped her wipe off the cream on the corner of her mouth, handed her hand to Nakajima Atsushi, and said gently: "Dun Jun, bring Jinghua sauce back Detective agency. If Mr. Kunikida asks, just say I ordered it."
The two little guys suddenly opened their eyes wide, so shocked that even their expressions were somewhat similar.
Natsume Chiaya felt a little more relaxed, she smiled, then suddenly turned serious, and pushed Atsushi Nakajima away.
"Miss Natsume!"
Atsushi Nakajima staggered with Izumi Kyoka, barely able to stand still, when he saw the ferocious black beast rushing straight at Natsume Chiaya's face.Natsume Chiya stretched out her hand to grab the black beast, and the Rashomon beast that could tear apart space immediately remained motionless like a cat caught by the back of fate.
Natsume Qianling looked along the source of the black beast, a trace of surprise flashed across her face: "It's you?"
The young man in the black windbreaker was obviously the one she had saved from the curse spirit before.
Seeing Natsume Chiaya's appearance, Akutagawa Ryunosuke was also a little surprised, and even more surprised that she was able to catch the Rashomon beast with her bare hands.However, Ryunosuke Akutagawa's attention was quickly assigned to Atsushi Nakajima. He retracted the black beast, looked at Atsushi Nakajima, and sneered sarcastically: "That hit just now didn't pierce your heart, really! It's a pity, human tiger."
"Akutagawa Ryunosuke!" Atsushi Nakajima subconsciously stood in front of Natsume Chiaya and Izumi Kyoka, glaring at Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "What are you doing here?"
Natsume Chiya noticed that Izumi Kyoka was trembling, and even the cute expression of astonishment just now had turned into unconscious fear.She patted Izumi Kyoka on the head, then gently pushed Atsushi Nakajima away, stood in front of the two of them, and looked straight at Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "You are the one who came to pick me up? Assault on the detective agency when you come up, the sincerity of Mafia at the port , only this little?"
"Pick you up?" Akutagawa Ryunosuke said coldly, "Why, the Armed Detective Agency has fallen so low that even its members want to quit? I don't mind, so let's use the people behind you as an exchange."
"Looks like it's not you." Natsume Chiya also said indifferently: "Then I have nothing to say to you. Also, the Armed Detective Agency will not exchange the life of any member."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke frowned, and finally turned his gaze back to Natsume Chiaya: "It's ridiculous, it's just life, it's not worth mentioning."
Natsume Chiya: "According to what you say, shouldn't I save you that day?"
Atsushi Nakajima has never seen Miss Natsume like this.Ms. Natsume is recognized as the person with the best temper in the Armed Detective Agency. She often smiles, and even the corners of her eyes have a gentle smile.However, at this moment, she had a cold and serious face, and her amber phoenix eyes were lifted up, evoking the original fierce arrogance of this type of eyes, making people afraid to look directly at them.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke's tone was indifferent as if he didn't care about his own life: "I regret saving you? Maybe you should have shot me that day."
"Regret? I won't regret it." Natsume Qianling sneered, and said calmly: "If I give you a shot, what is the difference between me and your Mafia? Besides, I didn't save you, I was injured by the curse spirit people."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Natsume Chiaya to answer like this.
"It seems that the concubine came just right." A voice sounded, breaking the confrontation between Natsume Chiaya and Akutagawa Ryunosuke.
Hearing this voice, Quan Jinghua's pupils dilated suddenly, and her whole body trembled even more.Sensing this, Atsushi Nakajima carefully reached out and held her.
Natsume Qianling raised her eyes and followed the prestige.The red-haired woman got out of the car, holding an oil-paper umbrella, with an elegant and reserved smile: "Ms. Natsume, this is the first time we meet. I am Koyo Ozaki. I am here to pick you up by the order of Ogai-sama."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke was obviously confused: "Ms. Momiji?"
As one of the five cadres at the port Mafia, the leader actually asked Sister Hongye to pick him up?
"Akutagawa-kun." Ozaki Koyo slightly nodded to Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "What are you doing here? Did Master Ogai entrust this matter to you?"
"Capture Renhu and bring back Jinghua."
"Kyoka?" Koyo Ozaki was stunned, as if thinking of something, his eyes fell on Izumi Kyoka behind Natsume Chiaya, he stretched out his hand to her, and said softly: "Kyoka, good boy, come, come to my concubine Come."
"No, no...don't..." Quan Jinghua's teeth collided with each other, his voice trembling, and his whole body was full of resistance.
Ozaki Koyo's face suddenly turned cold, Natsume Chiaya moved her steps, covering Izumi Kyoka tightly: "Didn't you come to pick me up, Miss Ozaki? I think, maybe the Ogai-sama you are talking about won't Mind if I make a few small requests first?"
Koye Ozaki narrowed her eyes and looked directly at Chiaya Natsume, but she only looked back fearlessly.
"Okay." Ozaki Momiji chuckled, and dialed Mori Ogai's phone number: "Master Ogai, Miss Natsume has 'a few small requests'."
"Let's talk about it first." The other side replied with a smile.
Natsume Chiaya's keen hearing allowed her to distinguish that this voice was the person who spoke to her in the supermarket that day!
Her eyes sank, sure enough, she was too careless.If she could find out what was wrong in time, she probably wouldn't be so passive.
But now is not the time to regret, Natsume Chiaya didn't talk nonsense, and said straightforwardly: "First, no longer pursue Kyoka's betrayal."
Quan Jinghua trembled.The smile on Koyo Ozaki's face also quietly disappeared.
"Mafia, a huge port, I don't think it can't operate without a little girl?" Natsume Qianling protected Izumi Kyoka behind her, and said calmly: "If this is the case, I deeply regret it. "
Listening to the ridicule from the phone, Mori Ogai smiled instead of anger: "Well, yes, this is the first one, and what else?"
"Secondly, I want to know who is offering a reward to Dun Jun—that is, the human tiger you call."
"Third," Natsume Chiya paused, and gave up what she wanted to say before, and changed the way of saying: "Since you are threatening me with Mr. Dazai, I think, when I get to the port of Mafia, at least I can see a Dazai-san intact?"
Natsume Chiaya wanted Port Mafia to release Osamu Dazai.But she still wants to save Quan Jinghua, so she can only act on the bottom line of the port Mafia.
After all, the only bargaining chip she held was the surname "Natsume".
On the other side of the phone, Mori Ogai seemed to sigh with emotion: "Miss Natsume's request is not that small. It seems a little greedy to get so much just because you are a guest alone?"
Natsume Qianling said lightly: "That's a question for you to evaluate. Whether it's worth it or not, you know better than me."
"..."
After a while, Natsume Qianling heard the other side say: "Miss Natsume, do you like red wine?"
— the bet was won.
A boulder fell from the bottom of Natsume Qianling's heart, and said, "Clear tea is fine."
Koyo Ozaki took a deep look at Natsume Chiaya: "I remember, Akutagawa-kun, you are responsible for offering a reward to Renhu. Who is the person who offered him a reward?"
Akutagawa Ryunosuke said in a cold tone: "The combination, the bell tower attendant and the rat of the dead house jointly offer a reward."
Koyo Ozaki turned to Ryunosuke Akutagawa and said, "Master Ogai said that for Miss Natsume's sake, this arrest of Totora is suspended."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke glanced at Atsushi Nakajima, and sneered coldly: "You are lucky, Renhu. But next time, it won't be so easy to escape."
"Miss Natsume..." Nakajima Atsushi didn't respond to Akutagawa Ryunosuke's sarcasm, and murmured, "What happened?"
How, how did it become like this?Why does Miss Natsume know people from Port Mafia?And when did you save Akutagawa?Was she just doing a deal with Port Mafia?She was trading herself?Why did the people at Port Mafia want to meet Miss Natsume?And Mr. Dazai...Mr. Dazai was captured by Port Mafia?
Countless questions circled in Atsushi Nakajima's mind.
Atsushi Nakajima had never hated his own powerlessness so much.Perhaps Mr. Kunikida is right, his boat can only carry himself.
However, even so, he also wants everyone around him to be safe.
Natsume Chiaya did not answer Atsushi Nakajima.She gently pushed him and Izumi Kyoka: "Dun-jun, take Kyoka-chan back to the detective agency. Tell Mr. Kunikida, who is the person who offered you a reward."
After finishing speaking, Natsume Chiaya turned and walked towards Ozaki Koyo.
Atsushi Nakajima took a deep breath and shouted, "Miss Natsume, I'll go back and inform everyone!"
Natsume Chiaya turned her head, and curved her lips to him and Izumi Kyoka, her smile was as gentle as usual: "It's okay, I'll be fine."
Dungeon in Port Mafia.
Osamu Dazai just finished teasing his former partner, Nakahara Chuya, who is also one of the five major cadres, and successfully obtained from Nakahara Chuya the storage location of the information about Renhu.Seeing that Nakahara didn't please, and left angrily, Osamu Dazai felt much happier.
He rubbed his shoulders, brushed his hand over the bloodstains flowing down from the side of his face, and muttered: "This guy Zhongya is really so violent. The beating hurts too much."
Osamu Dazai bypassed the guards with ease, as naturally as if he was visiting his own back garden, touching the communication storage room on the second floor all the way.Facing the sophisticated combination lock, Osamu Dazai only thought for less than two seconds before firmly entering a number. The combination lock opened with a "click", and Osamu Dazai pushed the door in.
Osamu Dazai took out the ID card from Nakahara Nakaya's pocket from his windbreaker pocket, inserted it into the device, and operated the keyboard to skip the firewall that he had participated in designing in the port Mafia, and searched for the relevant reward content of Atsushi Nakajima.Soon, a series of information was displayed on the electronic screen.
Seeing the name and organization on the information, Osamu Dazai frowned, it was Fyodor again.Why is this guy everywhere?
Well, forget it, no matter so much, the purpose of coming to the port Mafia this time has been achieved, let's go back and rest first.
Osamu Dazai yawned lazily, and rational mist appeared from the corners of his eyes.Since I was caught in the Mafia port last night, I haven't slept for almost twenty hours. I even missed the crab meat tempura that Qian Ling sauce promised. I don't know if I can find a way to find her to make it up?It might work?After all, Chiya-chan has such a good temper.
Thinking of this, Dazai Osamu tapped on the keyboard and glanced at Natsume Chiaya's position.If there is nothing wrong, at this point in time, Chiya-chan should be in the armed investigation...
In port Mafia?
Dazai Osamu's drowsiness dissipated completely in an instant.His fingers fluttered and he tapped the keyboard quickly, calling up the information inside Natsume Chiaya's phone.
An "invitation" from an unknown number.
And, Natsume Chiaya's reply——
'I thought I was more valuable than the so-called confidential documents?Come and pick me up, I'm sure you know where I am.Also, it is forbidden to use any means against Dazai-san. '
"..."
Osamu Dazai paused slightly with his fingertips.
This serial number is an anonymous mobile phone number purchased by Mafia at the port a few years ago.The tone of the text message, if I guess right, is Mr. Mori.
Should it be said that he is indeed Mr. Mori?Even when this kind of meeting of the five major cadres is going to be held tomorrow to discuss his execution, they don't forget to trick him.No, maybe Mr. Mori knows that he won't sit still and simply use this to bring Qian Ling sauce over.
Osamu Dazai squeezed the center of his eyebrows with a headache, he didn't expect to be turned against by Mr. Mori.If he hadn't just installed a locator, I'm afraid it would be difficult to bring Qian Lingchan out of the port Mafia after he returned.
In fact, you can choose to ignore it, but in case Chiya-chan has nothing to do with Natsume-sensei, Mr. Mori will definitely not spare her life.
In fact, he didn't understand what the relationship between Chiya-chan and Natsume-sensei was.If it doesn't matter, Natsume-sensei's attention is unusual, but if it matters, Chiya-chan doesn't seem to know anything - he can't bet on that "what if".
And...he hasn't had his crab tempura yet, has he?
Osamu Dazai quickly made a decision, and walked towards the chief's office on the top floor of the central building.
The chief office of Port Mafia is the place with the best view of the Port Mafia Building and even the whole of Yokohama.Standing in front of the bright and clear floor-to-ceiling windows, you can have a panoramic view of this bustling and lively port city.
When Natsume Chiaya walked in here under the "guard" of Ozaki Koyo and Akutagawa Ryunosuke, the first thing she saw was the middle-aged man sitting behind the desk.Different from the white coat I wore in the supermarket that day, I was wearing a black windbreaker, and the dark red scarf was like flowing blood.The little girl with blond hair sat beside him and gave Natsume Chiya a harmless smile: "Miss Natsume."
Natsume Chiaya had guessed in advance, so facing Alice at this moment, she had no extra thoughts. She nodded and replied softly: "Miss Alice."
She looked straight at the middle-aged man again, thinking of the "Ogai-sama" Ozaki Koyo said, so it should be Mori Ogai: "Mr. Mori."
"Why didn't Ms. Natsume call me Alice? Alice-chan is fine too. Ms. Alice sounds so unfamiliar." Alice jumped off the chair, ran to Natsume Chiaya, and took her hand.
After all, Natsume Chiya couldn't bear to anger this little girl, Alice, and let her lead her, and replied, "Sorry, Miss Alice."
Alice shook Natsume Chiaya's hand: "Miss Natsume, do you hate me?"
"Don't care if I hate you." Natsume Chiaya patted Alice's head, her cold voice softened slightly: "As long as it's your choice."
She would not blame Alice, after all, their positions were different.What's more, just like Quan Jinghua, it's not them who are wrong, but the people who use them.
Mori Ogai's gaze moved slightly, and he gestured to Koyo Ozaki and Ryunosuke Akutagawa to signal them to back down.Then, he spoke in a friendly tone as if he had never threatened Natsume Chiaya: "Miss Natsume, welcome to the port Mafia, please sit down."
Natsume Chiaya didn't resist, and followed Alice to sit down on the sofa.
Mori Ogai got up, sat across from Natsume Chiaya, and pushed a cup of tea to Natsume Chiaya.Natsume Qianling took it, thanked her, but didn't drink.
"It's really difficult to meet Ms. Natsume. Ge Shan didn't do well last time, and was discovered by the Supernatural Secret Service Division, which is very distressing."
Ogai Mori looked at Chiaya Natsume with great interest. In terms of appearance alone, Chiaya Natsume didn't have much in common with Sensei Natsume.However, if it really doesn't matter, how could Natsume-sensei ask His Excellency Fukuzawa to stop him?
To be honest, with such a girl with bright eyes, it's no wonder Natsume-sensei would rather let her stay in the Armed Detective Agency than enter the port Mafia.
Ge Shan?
When Natsume Chiya thought of this name, a chill was like a winding poisonous snake, slowly climbing up from the ankle to the back, making the hair stand on end.It turned out that she was targeted so long ago, and she didn't know anything about it.If it wasn't for the president, I'm afraid she would have been taken to the port of Mafia that day.
Natsume Chiaya forcibly suppressed all thoughts, and asked, "Where is Mr. Dazai?"
She knew very well that she was not as good as this Mr. Sen when it came to speaking skills and scheming.That being the case, you must not follow his topic.
Mori Ogai said with a smile: "Don't worry, Miss Natsume, Dazai-kun is naturally intact. After all, I'm also his former boss, so I won't be so heartless."
Former boss?Mr. Dazai, it used to be... Mafia?
Natsume Chiaya was slightly taken aback.
Mori Ogai caught Natsume Chiaya's expression at this moment, and asked knowingly: "Huh? Didn't Dazai-kun tell Miss Natsume? Is it too much? But yes, Dazai-kun is always like this." He sighed leisurely, It seems that the old father is complaining about his ignorant son: "I finally came back to Port Mafia, and even threatened me with the secrets of Port Mafia. It is really difficult for me."
"The Armed Detective Agency and Port Mafia are not friendly in the first place. As a member of the Armed Detective Agency, Mr. Dazai is understandable for doing so." Natsume Chiaya said calmly.
"But Dazai-kun was obviously the best talent in Port Mafia before. Maybe you have heard of it? The youngest cadre in Port Mafia's history, Dazai Osamu." Mori Ogai folded his hands and propped it on his chin, with a kind of almost He said in an emotionless tone: "Of course, such an outstanding talent will be punished more severely after defecting, but unlike Quan Jinghua, who can be easily let go. He knows too much, doesn't he?" ?unless……"
unless?
Natsume Chiaya pursed her lips, knowing that Mori Ogai wanted her to continue asking.She didn't ask, and continued to change the subject: "About Jinghua, you promised not to pursue it. The leader of Mafia, a dignified port, shouldn't go back on his word?"
"Of course not." Mori Ogai said, "As long as Natsume-san is in Mafia at the port."
Natsume Chiaya chuckled softly: "It's not impossible for me to stay here forever. However, the first and second requirements have been fulfilled, and there is the third one—where is Mr. Dazai? Please don't change the subject again." , my patience is not that good."
Ogai Mori reckoned that Osamu Dazai must have run away long ago, where did he change into Osamu Dazai for Chiaya Natsume?
"Miss Natsume cares about Dazai-kun so much? Well, it seems that Dazai-kun is still very popular with girls all these years." Mori Ogai said, scanning Natsume Chiaya's face carefully to discern her emotions.
"The Armed Detective Agency will not give up any member." Natsume Chiaya said without answering Mori Ogai's question.
Her expression was so calm and open that Mori Ogai couldn't see any ambiguous factors at all.It's a pity, Mori Ogai thought, if this Natsume-san had that intention for Dazai-kun, he might still be able to use it.
"Okay, okay," Mori Ogai leaned back on the sofa, spread his hands, and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, Miss Natsume, Dazai-kun should not be in the port Mafia anymore." He said "Sorry", There was no apology in the words.
Natsume Chiya's heart tightened: "What do you mean?"
"With Dazai-kun's ability, he won't wait to be rescued obediently." Mori Ogai's mouth curled up without any smile: "He should have returned to the Armed Detective Agency long ago."
"So, Mr. Dazai is safe?" Natsume Chiaya confirmed to Mori Ogai again.
"Yes. Miss Natsume, only you are left behind."
You see, trust is such a fragile and vulnerable thing.As long as you poke it lightly, it will be like a bubble, fragmented.
Mori Ogai's smile seemed to be a silhouette frozen in the abyss, and the words he spit out were like a scorpion's tail needle, full of poison: "He didn't tell you, Miss Natsume. I really regret it."
