Substitutes are not a problem

Chapter59

"Let me start with the conclusion. This threatening letter was indeed sent to you by the Port Mafia."

After taking a sip of the coffee in his cup, Osamu Dazai said in a normal tone that the content was not easy to hear.

Although he was mentally prepared, after hearing this conclusion, the expression on Yuan Rina's face became tense: "Just because I participated in this one-day police station program in cooperation with the Yokohama Police Department? I have participated in this program You have many idols, so why did you only focus on me? And... is Mr. Dazai so sure that this letter really came from the port mafia?"

Osamu Dazai uses a rather calm demeanor to increase his credibility:

"In the past, due to some work reasons, the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia had some intersections. If I am not mistaken, the handwriting on this letter should come from Nakahara Chuya, one of the five major cadres of the Port Mafia.

The Central Plains cadre of the martial arts faction was already grumpy and small-minded, and he was a well-known villain in the Yokohama underground world.In addition... he has certain physical defects, which will inevitably make his personality distorted.So, no matter what you do, it's not surprising. "

Hearing Osamu Dazai's remarks, Atsushi Nakajima, who was silently drinking fruit juice to lower his sense of existence, couldn't help but say a few words of justice for the cadre:

"Actually, Mr. Nakaya... he didn't, it's that bad..."

After several cooperations with the port mafia, he really felt that Zhong Yuanzhong was also a good senior.

And they also went to the cinema to watch "Puppy and Boy", and Mr. Nakaya watched it more emotionally than him...

People who can empathize with such a warm and emotional movie, they can't be so bad.

In the movie theater that day, Akutagawa, who was called by Mr. Nakaya, sat there completely blankly, staring at the pair of Akutagawa-style wise eyes the whole time.

"Dun Jun, don't be fooled by the appearance of that dark dwarf. He has a bad temper and believes in violence since he was a teenager. When he was 15 years old, he kicked and broke the ribs of a weak boy because of his displeasure. That innocent and poor boy just sat there reading a book in peace, and ended up in this kind of innocent disaster."

Osamu Dazai refuted what the younger generation just said with eloquence, and focused on aggravating the image of a violent slug.

Although Atsushi Nakajima wanted to complain...Mr. Dazai, the weak, pitiful and innocent boy you are talking about, maybe you are talking about yourself.

"Hmm... Miss Yuan Rina, did you think of something? Does your expression look serious?" Osamu Dazai turned his gaze back to Yuan Rina.

Yuan Rina nodded as if expressing agreement, and sighed: "Dr. Mori also analyzed that it might be the work of the Central Plains cadre..."

As soon as this remark came out, Osamu Dazai's original exaggerated expression condensed a bit, and his tone was hard to discern his true mood: "Doctor Mori? Ms. Yuan Rina's tone when she mentioned him is very familiar, and, you have consulted with him. this matter?"

But Atsushi Nakajima was a little confused for a while... Dr. Mori?Who are you talking about?Does he know it too?

"Well, Dr. Sen has helped me a lot during this period of time. And he seems to have some contacts in the port mafia. He said he would help me investigate this matter... Dr. Sen, I didn't tell you anything ?"

Yuan Rina did not intend to hide in front of the other party that she had a close relationship with the other party's father recently, and she behaved quite openly...Anyway, Dr. Mori is single, even if she had secret words and deeds, it would not violate morality.

"There's nothing to say between me and him." Osamu Dazai curled his lips, then put his chin in one hand with a dejected expression, and pouted, "Miss Yuan Rina, are you talking to him..."

"Will Dazai-san object?" Yuan Rina asked tentatively.

Seeing that Osamu Dazai seemed to have been hit by some major blow, he raised his hand to cover his face exaggeratedly, and said sadly: "Miss Yuan Rina, what are you trying to think of him? Thinking that he is old, and that his physical ability is poor? But the hairline has receded. Proof of kidney deficiency, look at his irreparable hairline. But if you want him to lose his braids for two years, all the property will belong to you, I agree with that."

The little tiger on the side was about to pop out a pair of red tiger ears.Although he still hasn't figured out who the two people are referring to as Dr. Mori, but the content of what they said just now...I always feel that it is the adult world that he shouldn't be in touch with!

"Then may I ask, what is Dr. Mori's property?" Yuan Rina's eyes sparkled to match the exaggeration of the young man in front of her.

Osamu Dazai counted on his fingers: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just a small clinic and five dilapidated houses. And those five dilapidated houses are still dangerous buildings. Maybe one day there will be only a piece of land left."

"In this case, if I persist, wouldn't it be more proof that I am sincere, without those vulgar considerations at all." Minamoto Rina continued to cooperate with his performance.

When someone is in tune with him, Osamu Dazai will naturally get better and better, "No, no, it's not vulgar at all. Anyway, the old man who is full of sex is trying to be young and beautiful. He hollowed out the old man's money and raised a wad A wolf dog milk dog that suits your taste, this is a chic modern woman."

"Mr. Dazai's suggestion, I will consider." Yuan Rina responded with a smile, and then recovered her face, as if she was just joking, "Okay, let's continue with the business. Dr. Mori's investigation When I heard the news, that Central Plains cadre seemed to be very disgusted with the idol industry, and was furious last night because the negotiating partner presented him with several popular idols during a negotiation."

Hearing this, Osamu Dazai echoed the irritable and distorted Central Plains cadres on his lips, but kept tsk-tsk in his heart... Poor slug.

During the conversation, the sky outside the window became gloomy, and soon it began to rain.

"It's raining..."

Osamu Dazai tilted his head and looked out the window, muttering sighingly.

"Mr. Dazai doesn't seem to like rainy days very much?"

Yuan Rina also looked out of the window, looking at the city shrouded in rain and fog.

"It's really hard to like." Dazai Osamu smiled, and his voice became distant, "Because rainy days always seem to go well with bad things."

……

Above, the Armed Detective Agency on the fourth floor—

Edogawa ran his feet on the desk, shaking the slanted chair once and for all, with a pocky in his mouth, looking at the rain outside the window.

Rainy day...

That time, it was also on such a rainy day.

Four years ago, that time seemed to be catching up with the rainy season in Yokohama, and there were several shows every day from time to time.

That night, the rain was not too light. After solving a small case in a pastry shop, he was given a large bag of small cakes by the pastry shop owner to express his gratitude.

He didn't even have time to take off his supernatural glasses, so he held these freshly baked hot cakes in his arms, trotting through the rain, trying to return to the detective agency as soon as possible.

As a result, on the road, I ran into a car at the corner, and almost ran into a big living person like him.

Fortunately, the driver reacted in time and braked.But he sat down on the ground, and the small cakes that had been covered for a long time were scattered all over the ground, all of which were soaked in the rainwater on the ground.

The driver hurriedly turned off the engine and stopped the car, and came over to see how he was doing.

[Sorry, are you okay, did I bump into you just now? 】

[I say you, you need to concentrate more on driving in the rain, the color of the raincoat I'm wearing is so conspicuous.And the reaction time required for the distance just now is definitely enough, you must be distracted while driving! 】

【Sorry... I'm sorry, I ruined all your snacks... Sorry, I don't have any money now. Just now, I have given all my assets to others, and I have no money to compensate for your loss... ...]

【No, wait, you...】

【Ah, if you don't mind, I'll give you this.I can exchange some money for this ring on my body, anyway, this ring will be meaningless after tonight, you can take it as compensation...]

[Wait, stop, listen to me first!I don't want to accept this ring of yours, it will cause me trouble... Oh, really, what kind of luck is a detective lately? 】

【Detective? 】

【That's right, soon, the whole of Japan, no, the whole world will know my name, Lord Edogawa Ranpo...】

【That's it, then...Come on, Mr. Detective. 】

【Wait a moment!How come you are the same as that person a few days ago, listen to the detective before leaving... Maybe you will die.If you run away now, you may still have a chance. 】

【Thank you, detective. 】

【So you, too, know that you will die, but you still want to go to this ending. 】

【It’s okay, I’ve been prepared from the beginning... ready to usher in this inevitable day. 】

After chewing the last pocky, he still looked at the rainy Edogawa outside the window and murmured to himself:

"On a rainy day, it's really easy to remind people of the past."

……

The next day, Yokohama Port——

At the location shooting scene, looking at the scene in front of him, Kinoshita's manager felt a little headache: "Gen Rina Araki...explain what's going on!"

Obviously, it should be the focus of the dispute surrounded by the audience, but Minamoto Rina pretended to stay out of it.

First, he raised his left hand and introduced the middle-aged man in a white coat standing on his left: "This is the special bodyguard I hired today, Doctor Morin Taro..."

Then, he raised his right hand again and introduced the black-haired youth and the silver-haired youth standing on his right: "These two are detectives who have accepted my commission to investigate, Mr. Osamu Dazai and Mr. Atsushi Nakajima."
