=============================

"To recognize the true self, you must first recognize the deepest desire in your heart. What is your desire?"

"Money, knowledge, power, status or... someone?"

Nakahara Chuya: "..."

Osamu Dazai: "???"

What the hell kind of question is this? !

What about the ladder of truth?

What truth could this be?

Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Nakaya kept silent on this question at the same time. After a long while, Nakahara Nakaya looked at Dazai Osamu and asked: "Is there any hint for this? Could it be such a simple literal meaning?"

Chuya Nakahara, who never thinks about things too complicated, chose to think a little more.

Although this question does not seem to have any hidden meaning at first glance.

Osamu Dazai, who thought he liked to argue with Chuya Nakahara, didn't refute Chuya Nakahara's words. He looked at the question seriously, as if he was really thinking about some philosophy of life.

"It is indeed possible." Osamu Dazai did not look directly at the problem, "But I think what we need to pay attention to now is not the problem itself, but why this problem arises.

"This time, this problem just happened by mistake. If we don't find the pattern, we may be stuck in the same place next time."

"Indeed." Zhong Yuanzhong also nodded in agreement, "But we didn't seem to say anything special during this time."

Osamu Dazai was also thinking about it, carefully recalling all the things that happened just now, and indeed did not find anything special.

The reason just now still took up too much space in his bun.

"Is it because of your ability?" Nakahara asked.

This was also discovered in the Central Plains. The only abnormality before these handwritings appeared was that Osamu Dazai touched the white ladder.

But the answer given by Osamu Dazai was negative: "No."

Before the accident happened, Osamu Dazai had been observing the changes of the white ladder. When he put his hand on the ladder, the ladder did not change except for the suspension disappearing.

Osamu Dazai thought about the details again, but unfortunately there were too many changes in the middle, and he couldn't find the exact time when those words appeared.

"Although this place is called the Ladder of Truth, it has two functions of pursuing the true self and the truth at the same time, and the question that is before us is about the true self." Osamu Dazai said while thinking, " The question that will arise is whether the truth is related or the real self is related, which may be regular or random.

"If it is random, it can only depend on luck, but if it is regular, there will probably be some signs..."

As he spoke, Dazai Osamu's voice gradually dropped, and then slowly disappeared. He felt as if he had found some crucial clue, but unfortunately, this clue flashed through his mind, and soon became blurred. .

What came up was a question related to the true self. If you speak regularly, you will have certain clues, and you will return to their previous actions:

The wrong contact, the sudden falling of the steps, and his questioning of Chuya Nakahara.

Osamu Dazai's eyes suddenly lit up, he knew it!

Before the accident happened, he asked Nakahara Chuya a question.

"What are you thinking about? Chuya."

This is a very common question, but it can also be a question that is difficult to answer. It all depends on what Zhongye was thinking at that time, and how he reacted after hearing his question.

Thinking of Chuya Nakahara's ecstasy at that time, and Chuya Nakahara's violent reaction, Osamu Dazai can be sure that what Chuya Nakahara was thinking about at that time was definitely not something ordinary.

And now, another question about the deepest desires of the self has arisen before them.

Although it seemed like a coincidence, Osamu Dazai always felt that his guess was right.

Osamu Dazai told Chuya Nakahara about his guess.

Zhong Yuan was also silent. He instinctively didn't want to admit this matter, but he had to say that what Osamu Dazai said was really reasonable.

Pursing his lips, Nakahara didn't make any comments on Osamu Dazai's guess.

Looking at Chuya Nakahara's current reaction, Osamu Dazai was even more sure that Chuya Nakahara was thinking about something serious.

Osamu Dazai hooked his lips, looked at Chuya Nakahara curiously and asked: "So, what were you thinking at that time, Chuya?"

"What's none of your business?" Zhong Yuanzhong also had a bad tone.

"Since you said that, Chuya, then what you were thinking at that time must have something to do with me." Osamu Dazai smiled and rolled his eyes.

Nakahara Chuya: "!!!"

Zhong Yuan was also expressionless: "So what, no matter what I was thinking at the time, it is useless now, right? You should think about how to answer the question on that step."

"Why is it not related?" Osamu Dazai smiled, "After I asked that question, Chuya, you didn't react for a while, so your first reaction must be to recall what you were thinking at that time, your thought It is likely to be detected by the steps under your feet, so now there is such a problem.

"Therefore, what you thought at the time may be the correct answer."

"Oh, I don't believe it." Zhong Yuan Zhong also said indifferently.

"Then we can test whether my guess is right on the next step like this. Now let's answer the questions here." Osamu Dazai didn't get entangled in this matter either, "Come on, Chuya Hurry up and answer the questions."

"Why am I answering this rubbish question?" Nakahara Zhong also frowned, and said dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you go?"

"Because I am not the one who triggered this ladder, and I am not the one who wants to climb this ladder, and this ladder has no restrictions on me." Dazai Osamu was still smiling, and his tone was very embarrassing, "So I don't need to answer this question. Garbage problem."

After finishing speaking, Osamu Dazai floated directly to the upper steps in front of Chuya Nakahara, and then looked at Chuya Nakahara in his spare time.

"I'll be waiting here for you, Chuya~"

His tone became even harsher.

Nakahara Chuya: "..."

Nakahara Chuya raised his foot and wanted to kick Dazai Osamu, but was successfully blocked by the transparent barrier in front of him.

Facts have proved that Osamu Dazai's beating remarks just now are correct.

"Give me a try?" Zhongyuan Zhong also remembered the way they passed the enchantment set by that elementary school chicken.

Osamu Dazai really wanted to see Nakahara Chuya struggling to answer the questions, but all things naturally have priorities.

Most importantly, Osamu Dazai felt that this method would not be useful.

So Osamu Dazai extended his hand to Nakahara Nakaya.

Nakahara Chuya put his hand on it, and when Dazai Osamu's hand successfully passed through the barrier, his hand really hit the wall, not to mention being blocked, he also felt a pain in his hand.

Fortunately, Osamu Dazai's movements were very slow just now, so Nakahara Chuya's hand was not hit hard, so there was no special pain.

Zhong Yuanzhong also stared at the transparent barrier in front of him, and then at the steps under his feet.

Dazai Osamu's smiling voice rang in Nakahara Chuya's ear: "Quickly answer the question, Chuya."

Zhongyuan Zhong also looked at this question and began to think seriously. What is his desire?

"Back to the original world." Zhong Yuanzhong also tentatively gave an answer, which is what he wants to do now.

After he finished speaking, there was no change in the surroundings, and Nakahara Chuya stretched out his hand experimentally, but unfortunately, the transparent barrier in front of him did not disappear.

Zhongyuan Zhong also continued to answer: "Nice hat."

"New locomotive."

"wine."

……

He listed a bunch of his hobbies one after another, but none of them came in handy.

Zhongyuan Zhong also looked at the steps under his feet with a murderous gaze, and he began to suspect that this question was lying to him.

And Osamu Dazai listened to Nakahara Chuya's answer, his smile gradually froze.

"Chuya, try the name of the person? Doesn't it mean that it may be someone." Osamu Dazai reminded.

Zhong Yuanzhong also nodded, and adopted his suggestion: "Leader."

"Miss Hongye."

"shortage."

"Akutagawa."

"silver."

"Liyuan."

……

Nakahara Chuya reported the name of the person as quickly and emotionlessly as he was reporting the name of the dish. When Nakahara Chuya was about to talk about a subordinate who was beside him and couldn't even remember the name clearly, Osamu Dazai finally interrupted him unbearably.

Seeing that Nakahara Chuya reported dozens of names in one breath, even Edogawa Ranpo had a name, but he still did not appear in Nakahara Chuya's mouth, not even a nickname.

At the same time, seeing that Nakahara Chuya reported so many names one after another, all of which were not correct answers, Osamu Dazai was really in a complicated mood.

On the one hand, Osamu Dazai was angry that he did not have a name in Chuya; on the other hand, Osamu Dazai felt lucky because Chuya Nakahara said so many people but none of them were his favorites.

But no matter what, Osamu Dazai really didn't want to hear other people's names from Nakahara Chuya's mouth anymore, so he chose to interrupt him.

"You can't do this, Chuya." Osamu Dazai said, "You won't be able to give the correct answer until smoke comes out of your throat."

"Then what should I do now? My hobbies are pretty much the same as people I know, even people I barely know." Zhong Yuanzhong also stopped reporting the name of the dish, no, it was the name of the person The great cause of Dazai is waiting for the wise opinion of Osamu Dazai.

"Well, Chuya, you should consider my initial suggestion." Osamu Dazai said.

Chuya Nakahara paused, he recalled Osamu Dazai's suggestion at the beginning, and seemed to be answering——

What was he thinking at that time?

Zhong Yuanzhong also thought of a bunch of complicated, weird, embarrassing and shameful brain holes he had at the time. This time his answer slowed down and his voice was very soft.

It's so light that it's almost talking to itself.

"Does that bastard mackerel... have some... out-of-the-ordinary thoughts about me?"

The moment Zhongyuan Zhong also finished saying this, the words on the steps under his feet just disappeared.At the same time, a silver light suddenly flashed in front of Zhongyuan Zhongye, revealing the true appearance of the screen.

Afterwards, the silver light gradually became brighter, cracks appeared on the screen, and then shattered, and the shattered barrier was completely turned into stardust.

Obviously, Zhongyuan Zhong also just said the correct answer.

However, it is not known whether the correct answer is the whole sentence he just said, or just a pronoun in that sentence.
