I fish my brother in the river every day

The atmosphere in the house was stagnant.

After several seconds, Dazai slightly raised his eyelids:

"Don't you owe the Armed Detective Agency ten cases?"

He lifted someone up who had been spread out in a ball of cat cake.

"The debt is not paid off, and you still go to school?"

Ryu explained lightly:

"I recently received a commission, but the weather was too cold to go out."

She met Dazai's eyes, sitting upright.

"Brother, why don't you go and contact the client, I believe you will be able to complete the task smoothly."

Dazai: "Go by yourself."

Ryu looked regretful.

"It's a dispute between lovers that is about to escalate into a murder case."

"Originally, I had a phone call with my client, but the other party thought that my age would definitely not be able to handle complex emotional issues, so they didn't trust my business ability. It was really distressing."

She sighed:

"But the task has already been accepted, and I promised the Armed Detective Agency to complete the task with high standards and strict requirements. It would be bad if he was called to the detective agency because of objective reasons such as age."

"For now, the only way is—"

"Get rid of him before he complains."

Li Xu calmly said that he would be caught in prison:

"That way my closing rate remains unaffected."

Dazai had a half-smile:

"Don't worry, I will visit the prison then."

Ritsu didn't panic at all:

"Brother, if you really go to court, you will definitely get a longer sentence than me."

This man deserves [-] death sentences for what he did in the port mafia.

She spoke briskly:

"It's not certain which of us will visit the other."

【…】

Inexplicably realistic.

Dazai bent down, grabbed her cheek, and pulled the corner of her lips lightly:

"Since you know your age is inappropriate, why choose this kind of emotional dispute case?"

Li Xu raised his head slightly, his expression unchanged:

"Because I think it's interesting to observe the complex human nature of love-hate entanglement up close."

The more familiar Dazai:? ? ?

The system sighed silently.

It should be said or not, it is worthy of reincarnation.

When the task object was in the port mafia, he wanted to change jobs with Oda to mediate the antagonistic relationship between the wife of an official and his mistress.

What was said at that time and what the tasker said just now——

same.

"Give me the information."

Dazai stood up straight, looking down at the 12-year-old who was looking for excitement.

Li Xu raised his eyes slightly, his outline was reflected in the iris-colored pupils, and let out a hum.

"Actually, I'm done."

You can't really expect her brother to help her with tasks.

Dazai raised a smile that was as warm as a spring breeze, and in Risu's eyes, he smiled strangely.

"Did you settle the person, or settle the dispute?"

Riku picked up the juice on the side and took a sip.

"Of course it's the latter."

Dazai's smile remained unchanged:

"That's amazing, Rishi."

"Can I ask, how do you solve this kind of emotional dispute of love-hate entanglement?"

Ritsu said slowly:

"I suggested to the client that if there is a problem with the object, it should be replaced with a new one."

"Although he was hesitant at first, he finally made up his mind."

Hearing this, Dazai suddenly said:

"You prevented death from happening."

Li Xu hummed, and said naturally:

"I send my client's morbid partner to jail."

Because he saved the client who was almost dismembered, he received a sincere thank you letter after the dust settled.

"Love and hate are really complicated things."

Risu stirred the juice in the glass with a spoon.

"I always think about dragging my partner to die in love. Although I don't know how to do this kind of thing, I can understand it."

"after all--"

She stopped stirring the juice, propped her chin with one hand, and hooked the corners of her lips.

"The sorrow of things is a kind of aesthetic consciousness, and the love affair can best reflect the sorrow of things."

Li Xu gulped down the juice and said leisurely:

"This kind of lingering and charming, but also difficult to reconcile the conflict of righteousness, reason and human affection."

"It is indeed more straightforward and strong than the euphemistic and implicit emotional expression."

After Dazai listened, he chuckled lightly:

"Having said that, you're never in a relationship with anyone."

Reasonably said:

"My emotional needs are not high, and I can maintain a balance."

"Even if I don't seek eternal silence in death, I can appreciate the waning moon and the first bud at night."

She was wearing a white smoky sweater that was almost down to her knees, and her fluffy black hair shimmered in the setting sun.

"This year's cherry blossom festival, I want to go to Meguro River."

Meguro River Cherry Blossom Road, the most popular cherry blossom viewing place in Japan.

Every year when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, there are the most tourists and the most crowded.

Rio sat on the picnic mat, eating cherry blossoms and confectionery, and said to the system:

"It's a pity that the system backpack cannot store living things."

Otherwise, you can enjoy the meticulous and considerate service of the milk cats in the same industry.

It's not a certain little brother who didn't bring anything and borrowed things from her from time to time.

[Don't you want the task object to accompany you? 】

Otherwise, why did you suddenly say that you want to come to Meguro River to see the cherry blossoms?

"You think too much."

Rio was covered with a blanket, so comfortable and lazy that she seemed to be sleeping peacefully under the cherry blossom tree in the next second.

"Can my brother get up early to take a seat for me? Or will he prepare a limited lunch for the Sakura Festival?"

[Then why did you come to Meguro River with him? 】

"the reason is simple."

Rio raised his eyes, and glanced at Dazai who was hanging from the cherry blossom tree, causing everyone to exclaim.

"I don't want to be forced to go back to Yokohama because of an urgent mission after I get up early and occupy the seat at Megurogawa."

With the current frighteningly increasing traffic, by the time she returned from Yokohama, the best position would have already been taken.

"If you have an entity that can help me occupy a seat, I will pack my brother and throw it back to Yokohama right now."

【…】

【The system has no entity】

And according to this -

Your relationship is too plastic, right? !

Rio took out the travel brochure nonchalantly.

"Cherry blossom viewing in April, rose exhibition in May, lavender park in June, summer festival in July and August."

"Until the Youkexin auction, I can happily relax and travel."

Just as she closed the manual with satisfaction, a girl in a high school uniform walked up to Rio, and asked after deliberation:

"Excuse me... do you know that gentleman?"

Risu followed her gaze and met her brother who was hanging upside down from the tree.

His eyes froze for a few seconds, and Risu denied it three times without hesitation:

"Unfamiliar, never seen, don't know."

【…】

As expected of you.

After hearing this, Dazai jumped down from the tree nimbly.

He seems to be particularly fond of this sand-colored trench coat, and he hasn't changed his coat all year round.

At this time, he walked forward with his hands in his pockets, looking careless.

The girl who thought he was a fugitive from a mental hospital was stunned.

After she reacted, she whispered to Rixu:

"You guys feel very similar. Isn't he really your brother?"

"...I'm like the kind of person who likes to perform acrobatics in public?"

This is even scarier than the last time Kanalia said she looked like Qi Ya.

The innocent high school girl who was caught up in Rio's words was slightly taken aback.

It seems... makes sense.

She was wondering if she had guessed wrong.

The next second—

The handsome guy, who seemed to have a bad brain, knelt down and picked him up like a cat, patted the head of the kitten in his arms, and smiled at her.

"It's the sister of the same father and mother."

Out of respect for the handsome guy, the female high school student blushed slightly and said goodbye.

After the people left, Li Xu sucked on the jelly and said calmly:

"I bet a dollar that you are definitely treated as a mental patient who has not yet fully lost capacity."

Dazai played with the kitten's hair, and took a wagashi from the plate in her hand.

"Then I'll bet a yen, you will definitely be regarded as an indifferent sister who despises her own brother."

The branches hang low and there are scattered petals here and there.

Dazai, who had just returned from hanging himself, was tinged with a faint fragrance.

Growth hormone especially favors him.

Even if this person's daily behavior does not conform to the laws of health, he still has long arms and legs.

When he bent down a little, a shadow was cast over him, blocking Risu's vision in all directions.

"Brother, can you move to the other side?"

She came to enjoy the spring limited cherry blossom river, not to see her brother's heart-wrenching face.

Mao Mao's hair was scuffed to a mess, and there was disgust visible to the naked eye.

Dazai pinched the arrogant cat's nape, and said coolly:

"I haven't disliked the industrial saccharin smell after you eat wagashi."

Li Xu held the wagashi with sincere eyes:

"Wagashi is not flavored with complex saccharin. If you smell industrial saccharin, you probably have lost your sense of smell."

"..."

at the same time.

Another pair of brothers and sisters in the cherry tree not far away became another object of onlookers after Dazai hanged himself.

Naomi held the bento box in one hand and picked up the chopsticks in the other:

"My lord, let me feed you."

Tanizaki moved back an inch:

"No, no, it's outside, I'll do it myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Naomi pushed him down on the picnic mat.

The whole person was helpless as if he had been shocked by an electric shock.

She could only let Naomi sit on him and feed him bento.

Tanizaki's face was hot, he pursed his lips and said:

"Naomi, go home and—"

"No, brother."

Onlookers:  …

"It's sexual harassment."

Risu retracted his gaze and commented.

It was rare for Dazai to agree with her.

"It's terrible. If I were the person involved, I would definitely call the police."

Ryu nodded:

"While respecting the blessing, it's hard not to agree."

Dazai: "Rio is so normal, I'm so relieved."

Li Xu: "From this point of view, you can barely be considered a normal person."

【? ? ? 】

You two are only qualified to call yourself normal people in this respect, right? !

During the period between the cherry blossom festival and the summer festival, Rio received a call from Zhixi from another world.

"The acting master tied the rope of oath to Xiaojie, and he can't practice Nian for a period of time."

Li Xu thought of Yun Gu's teaching method.

Probably because——

"Xiaojie was seriously injured above the 200th floor."

Zhixi hummed:

"The acting master was so angry that he slapped his face."

Li Xu paused when he heard the words:

"I would like to thank Mr. Yun Gu for his non-fan kindness back then."

Back then when she was like that, Yun Gudu only asked her to carry ten boxes of light salt water.

This time he slapped Xiaojie, probably because he was angry that he had suffered such a serious injury.

Zhixi was a little helpless, not knowing what to say.

Seeing this, Qi Ya on the side took the receiver.

"How far is your meditation practice?"

Riu: "Don't worry about how much the gutter capsizes."

Qiu: "..."

He held back his anger and continued to ask:

"How many layers did you put on the Sky Arena?"

Li Xu ate tea and said leisurely:

"Didn't Ji-hee tell you?"

"I've never played Sky Arena."

Qi Ya looked at Zhi Xi.

Zhixi rubbed her hair and said embarrassingly:

"Qi Ya didn't ask, I thought you knew."

Qi Ya withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes:

"You practiced here with Mr. Yun Gu, have you ever played in the Sky Arena?"

"Then what do you do all day?"

Shutting up in a room for retreat?

Li Xu said naturally:

"Do push-ups and carry salt water."

Qi Ya:? ? ?

"Times are changing, please analyze specific issues in detail."

She was chased by the phantom brigade like that at the time, was she worried that others would not find her in the public competition?

Narrow phone booths.

Qi Ya heard the other party say something in an extremely unbeatable tone:

"Before you go to Youkexin, you'd better follow Mr. Yun Gu to lay the groundwork, and don't be caught by the phantom brigade then."

next moment--

The beep of the phone being hung up came from the handset.

Qi Ya:? ? ?

He left the phone booth without looking back, his hands clenched tightly:

"Damn it! I must beat this scumbag."

The version I told Kurapika was——

[Special training for a few months to have the strength to fight against the Phantom Brigade]

To him it becomes——

【Hehe, let's practice again】

"This person definitely did it on purpose!"

Ji Hee tried to appease:

"Maybe that's not what Riu meant."

Qi Ya's eyes gradually became dangerous:

"You think she's telling the truth?"

Zhixi: "..."

How can I persuade you?

He bites the bullet and says:

"I heard from the acting master that the ability to read is related to one's will, so it's not necessarily that Qi Ya's talent is not good enough."

Qi Ya paused:

"Kurapika's determination for revenge is indeed strong."

Ji-hee breathed a sigh of relief.

"but--"

Qi Ya looked at him and said meaningfully:

"There must be something in the mind that we don't know."

That was the deciding factor for Kurapika vs. Phantom Troupe.

As the summer festival approaches, Rio is picking out the necessary equipment for the day

--bathrobe.

"I think the yukata with the round plum blossom pattern is so cute."

[Plum's flower language is "pure heart"]

With all due respect, I don't see that this has anything to do with the tasker.

Rio picked up another yukata decorated with tsubaki.

Before the system could speak, Dazai who was flipping through the suicide manual exaggeratedly covered his face with the manual.

"Flowers bloom and fade, representing longevity."

"What a cursed bathrobe."

【…】

Risu glanced at him and countered with an aria:

"Ah, there are such beautiful bathrobes in the world."

"Brother, please be sure to change."

Dazai made a gesture of refusal.

"I have my own bathrobe."

She said calmly:

"Then shut up while I pick out my bathrobe."

In the end, Rio chose a yukata with a pattern of cherry blossoms on it.

On the day of the summer festival, she had taiyaki with her left hand and small octopus balls with her right hand, rattling around with clogs.

People come and go, and they run away after a while.

Dazai walked behind unhurriedly.

A book on keeping cats once said--

Creatures like cats must wear a leash when they go out, because they are vulnerable to various temptations in unfamiliar environments, and they can easily get lost in the event of an unexpected situation.

But in his opinion, instead of putting a troublesome leash on the cat to prevent it from getting lost, it is better to use a little brain to guess the whereabouts.

like now-

Even without a locator, he still found the kitten squatting down to fish for goldfish.

When the man was about to catch all the goldfish, Dazai had no choice but to stop him.

"Change it when you've played enough."

The five children who didn't catch the one next to it were all dumbfounded.

Odasaku nodded slightly when he saw Dazai:

"What a coincidence."

He held Sakule's hand and lowered his voice:

"Go get a water balloon?"

Sakuya hid behind him and nodded.

Odasaku raised his eyes and said to Dazai:

"Your sister seems to have gone somewhere else."

Dazai glanced around from the corner of his eye, and if he didn't look at it for a while, he didn't know whether this person was going to trap or bid.

His eyes darkened, and he said lightly:

"I'm already 12 years old, can I still hold her hand all the time?"

As soon as the voice fell, the passers-by around began to discuss in low voices:

"This elder brother is too reckless. How can you not lead your sister in such a crowded place?"

"It's too good, don't you worry about your sister meeting bad people?"

"I can't pick it up, I feel sorry for my sister."

"..."

Dazai finds someone among a group of high school girls.

The skin of the humanoid cat is almost transparent, its face seems to have been kissed by a god, and it can be fed by humans without speaking.

The female high school student who was watched by her was so soft-hearted that she impulsively said:

"Since your brother passed away, how about I support you?"

Dazai:? ? ?

Li Xu looked at the cotton candy in her hand and was about to nod, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a very familiar figure in the crowd.

Then he said calmly:

"Not all my brothers have passed away, the ones who are still alive—"

Rio pointed at Dazai through the crowd:

"Like him."
