Why should I clean up

Birthday.

Takigawa Yuichi thought about it, and remembered that there seemed to be such a thing.

Except for the New Year Festival, this seems to be the second time that Central Plains invited him.

But January should be the busiest month for the Port Mafia.

"Mr. Mori actually agreed?" Takigawa Yuichi asked curiously.

"..." Zhongyuan Zhong also turned his face away subtly, "I will finish the work before then."

"Thank you." Takigawa Yuu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "But it doesn't matter if Mr. Mori disagrees."

Zhongyuan Zhong also paused, suddenly realizing that he used the tone of a leader.

So the boy frowned, and his expression became serious.

"Is there anything I can do?" he asked.

"No." Takigawa Yuichi replied softly, his slender eyelashes drooped, he raised his hand and pulled off the red scarf around his neck, "I can do it myself."

【Sorry, Master Takigawa, I haven't found any trace of the person you mentioned】

[But we found some information about you, please issue an order]

On the way back to the Port Mafia, Takigawa Yuichi received a message from his subordinates.

That's why he held on to Gin.

Brandeso is a cunning man, and he must be found before he knows it.

Takigawa Yuichi originally thought so, but it turned out to be a step too late.

The young man sighed,

"Zhengyi." He said softly, "Where do you think Bai Lan will wait for us?"

iron horns.

At least in high school, that's how everyone put him together with Bai Lan and Zhengyi.

Bai Lan looked like a normal person at that time.

Although he would shout that he was bored, the boy always had a smile on his face.As a representative of popularity, Bai Lan would always take the snacks sent by others to the laboratory for him to share with Zhengyi.

It's a pity that I don't know when that smile disappeared.

【"so annoying."】

This is what he said blankly when he received a gift once.

Takigawa Yu, who was only a teenager at that time, turned his head to look, and was surprised to find that there were some emotions in those violet eyes that he couldn't understand.

【"Actually, it's not that I hate humans. Sometimes I feel emotional, and it's not negative and pessimistic. I'm good at interesting things, and I will go all out for things that interest me."】

【"However, I always feel that I am out of tune with this world."】[1]

Realizing that she was being watched, Bai Lan touched his head, and the corners of her lips curled up again when she looked at him.

【"So, Yuichi, can you understand me?"】

【"Isn't this world a bit disgusting?"】

... I don't understand at all.

There were many things Takigawa Yuichi didn't understand, and Bai Lan was the only existence he could talk to at that time.

Bai Lan said it didn't matter, he could teach him everything.

Thinking about it now, if Zhengyi hadn't been there, he might have indeed followed Bailan to destroy the world.

[September 12]

Christmas.

Probably due to the snow that fell all day on Christmas Eve, the streets were covered with a thick layer of white.

"Yo-yo-yo--!"

When Takigawa Yuichi went out, Yumeno Hisaku had already built a snowman.He heard the sound and looked, and found that the latter was proudly crossing his hips, pointing at the distorted snowman and saying, "Look! I made one of you!"

Takigawa Yuichi was silent for a moment, feeling that there was no need to be too harsh in this regard, so he clapped in cooperation.

"It looks like..."

and many more.

Takigawa Yuichi's voice stopped abruptly.

What is that ice sculpture over there that can be taken to the competition?

"It's made by Akutagawa." Hisaku Yumeno snorted indifferently, "It's not as good as a tenth of mine."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke didn't speak, but judging from the black air coming out of his back, he seemed to kill Yumeno Hisaku.

"Is your aesthetic finished, Mr. Q." Osamu Dazai, who was also forced to go on a mission, sighed regretfully, "Let's just go back to the furnace and rebuild."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was taken aback, and seemed to cheer up a little.

Takigawa Yuichi stared at him for a while, leaned close to Dazai's ear and lowered his voice: "Look, Akutagawa is blooming."

Dazai didn't care about such things at all.

The feeling of breathing in his ears was itchy, he turned his face slightly, looked at the young man beside him, and suddenly found that he had grown a little taller.

At this time last year, when Yuichi came to look for him in the container, it seemed that Yokohama was also covered with snow.

At that time, he couldn't really lower his eyes to look at Yuichi.

Osamu Dazai never knew he could be satisfied with something like this.

"Are you coming to pick you up after the mission?" He asked with a chuckle.

"Huh?" Takigawa Yu stood up straight, "I'm not a child, so I can still find my way back."

"Well, that's true." Osamu Dazai replied, not being too persistent in this aspect, "But Ango and Odasaku invited you to go to the bar together at night, so Yuichi should come back early."

Lupin.

"I thought it was your secret base." Takigawa Yuichi thought thoughtfully.

"That's right." Osamu Dazai tilted his head to avoid the snowball that Yumeno Hisaku secretly threw at him, "So Yuichi's popularity is also something that troubles me."

Takigawa Yuichi sneered: "I'm sorry for stealing your secret base."

Hey, does he mean that?

Obviously he wanted to say that he originally wanted to invite Yuichi alone, but Ango and Odasaku beat him to the punch.

with a snap.

Takigawa Yuichi didn't pay attention, and was hit on the head by Yumeno Hisaku who was dissatisfied in the distance.

...the Waterloo of Mafia life.

Soft snow fell from the silver hair of the young man. Takigawa Yuichi endured the coldness, and when Yumeno Kusaku noticed the trouble and subconsciously hid behind Osamu Dazai, he grinned and showed a wicked smile .

Osamu Dazai watched silently the youth squeezed a super-large snowball full of vigor, and withdrew his hand from his pocket, and mercilessly lifted Yumeno Hisaku out.

"It's all said."

"Don't trouble me, Mr. Q."

Takigawa Yuichi finished his mission at five o'clock in the evening. At that time, the sun had set early, and at the border of day and night, orange-red light shone all over the place.

He stared for a moment at the spinning crystal ball in the window and suddenly realized where Blanchesso would be at a time like Christmas.

When they are abroad, they go to church every year.

Choir, piping hot coffee, fresh gingerbread.

So at the moment when the heavy door was pushed open, Takigawa Yuichi really reflected the familiar pair of wings in his eyes.Blanchesso was sitting on the table, slightly surprised to see him.

"Isn't this Yuichi?" It was unclear whether it was a tone of surprise or fright, but Bai Lanjiesuo's eyes widened for a moment, and soon returned to his usual beating look.

"I don't think you have anywhere to go." Takigawa Yuichi leaned against the door, raised his eyebrows and laughed ironically.

Bai Lan blinked, and tilted her head very cutely: "Are you here to catch up?"

Takigawa Yu lowered his eyes and loaded the pistol/gun: "No, although it's a little earlier, I'm indeed here to kill you."

Brandeso observed for a while, and found that the other party didn't seem to be joking.

But it's even funnier that way.

"You know I can't be killed, Yuichi." The corners of his lips curled up, but there was no smile in his eyes, "Now that I am dead, there will be me from other worlds coming."

"I know." Takigawa Yuichi replied lightly, and raised his eyes, "This is also the point where I think I am stupid in the parallel world."

"Obviously there is a better solution, but you want Dazai to kill me while you are not around, thinking that you will have a chance to do it all over again."

"However, since I have the power of seven, it means that the value of my soul is much higher than yours."

bang.

When Takigawa Yuichi shot himself in the foot, Bailan Gesuo fell off the table uncontrollably.

The relaxed attitude was gone from him, and Blanchesso lowered his eyes gloomily to his feet.

It has broken through the limit of [Only by Contact].

Takigawa Yuichi had such a guess from the very beginning.

In the final analysis, it was not Bai Lan who wanted to create the conflict between him and Dazai, but himself as the leader.

Shot four times in his limbs—it was precisely because of leaving such a painful memory that Bai Lan was given the opportunity to alienate him and Dazai.

——16-year-old Dazai is still too young.

The other self probably thought so.

He wants to find out the truth slowly, maybe wait until he is 28 years old like that world before doing it.

However, he probably did not expect that Dazai and Nakahara would come to this world.

When all the mysteries were solved, Takigawa Yuichi lost his patience.

In the state of dying, his ability will frantically plunder the vitality of the surrounding.With the addition of the power of seven, Takigawa Yuichi had a crazy idea.

He might be able to kill Bai Lan from other worlds as well.

Brandeso apparently also thought of this possibility.

The wings on his back flapped, but just as he left the ground, he fell hard again.

At the same time, blood gurgling from Takigawa Yuichi's abdomen also fell on the ground.

"Sometimes it's a good habit to get used to the pain early, isn't it?"

The young man didn't fall down, he just smiled lightly and walked forward step by step.

Blanche laughed loudly: "Are you crazy too, Yuichi?"

"If you lose the bet, your life will be gone."

"In other words, even if you kill me, no one will thank you."

Takigawa Yuichi half-kneeled in front of him and said "I know".

boom.

Another shot.

This time it was with the left hand.

"I didn't want anyone to thank me at first."

A man like him is not worth remembering nor thanking.In the festive atmosphere of Christmas, the giant Christmas tree in the center of the mall was lit.

People gathered layer after layer there, cheering and making wishes.

As long as the sun will rise tomorrow—

"I won, Bai Lan." Takigawa Yu raised his hand, and gently supported his friend's cheek with the bloody palm.

Bai Lanjie chuckled, "In that case, how can it be faster to shoot at the heart?"

"I don't know." Takigawa Yuichi said, "I don't know how my self in another world feels towards you."

"Whether it's hate or love, I don't really understand that kind of emotion."

"In the end, I, like you, have done all kinds of bad things, and never thought of using strange reasons to whitewash myself."

Do what you want.

The only thing is that I don't want to lose to the opponent.

Why not just shoot it in the heart?

"perhaps……"

His eyelashes trembled and his cheeks were pale from blood loss.

[In the evening, at [-]:[-], the police received a report, and gunshots were heard from a church next to the Meiji University Museum]

"Probably, I just want to talk to you as before."

【"I always feel that as long as Yuichi and Xiao are by my side, I can do anything."】

Bai Lanjiesuo's hand that grabbed the gun suddenly hung in place, but in just a few seconds, Takigawa Yuichi stood up.

He aimed at his heart and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

boom--

So when Matsuda Jinhei opened the door, this was what he saw.

【"I guess you won't talk to me in the future, so according to common sense, you should say a few more words now."】

Clumsy, expressing sad emotions bit by bit.

Until now, Matsuda Jinpei seems to have truly understood the meaning of this sentence.

With a gunshot, the white pigeons on the square started up.

Under the colorful glass of the church, behind Takigawa Yuichi is the white statue of the saint. His blood dripped from the white spot little by little, and when he fell behind him, he seemed to fall into a deep sleep in the embrace of an angel.

Some people are laughing, some are moving forward, and some people's time stays in place forever.

Righteousness and evil become insignificant at this moment.

In a trance, Matsuda Jinpei seemed to see the boy in the police uniform, holding a child in the waiting room and making up stories.

【"Brother policeman, you read it wrong. Mom said that if you die, you are dead. Even a little rabbit can't be resurrected."】

Takigawa Yu raised his eyebrows, and there was a flamboyant and wanton smile on his lips.

【"Shut up, I will live if I say I can live."】

Matsuda Jinpei suddenly remembered.

He obviously...

I haven't said goodbye to Yuichi yet.
