[Comprehensive] Confession Mask

……

Yokohama, outside Chinatown.

When Fakir, who suddenly went berserk, was defeated by Osamu Dazai using "Disqualification in the World", Nakahara Chu, who was interrupted during the battle, inevitably began to quarrel with Dazai.

All kinds of elementary school students swearing at each other came from the street, and just when Mishima felt that this was a bit dull, the appearance of a black figure perfectly ended the farce.

Naturally, it was Ryunosuke Akutagawa who rushed over with his life after answering the phone.Wearing a black slender windbreaker, he stood gasping for breath at the street corner, saw Dazai Osamu who was arguing with Nakahara Nakaya in the middle of the road, and subconsciously blurted out: "Mr. Dazai!! Cough, no, I mean... a monster ?!"

He has a serious face, but his eyes are quietly aiming in the direction of Osamu Dazai, the corners of his mouth are raised uncontrollably, and he is panting non-stop.

...It's like a fan who shows up in front of his idol but has to try his best to maintain his image.

What a wonderful relationship this is.

Yusa Mishima jumped down from the rooftop, landed next to Chuya Nakahara, and looked down at the "corpse" on the ground that belonged to Faki. On the other side, Osamu Dazai and Yusa Mishima met their eyes. At first, he seemed to be planning to say something to her, but because of Akutagawa's approach, it was more important to run away, so he made a starting posture without saying a word, and hurriedly ordered——

"Miss Mishima, I'll contact you later—"

"Hey, so there's no need to contact me."

Yusae Mishima waved his hand to bid farewell to Osamu Dazai, and Osamu Dazai still maintained a smile on his face, and soon disappeared at the corner of the street.

And later, when he caught up, Akutagawa's younger brother, who couldn't meet his idol's clothes, couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.Seeing this, Nakahara sighed, and Mishima even touched his head lovingly.

"...Don'tMind, Akutagawa-kun!"

"I don't have a mind!" Akutagawa Ryunosuke slapped Mishima's hand off with a wicked look on his face. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he turned around pretending to be serious, and turned his back on Nakahara Nakaya and Mishima Yuuke. He corrected sullenly: "Hey, I mean... I'm here for business."

"Did the Boss give you new instructions?" Nakahara Nakaya has always been working, ignoring Yuka Mishima's habit of collecting monster wind sand, and looking at the younger generation with a look of senior Fan's question.

"Ah." Akutagawa Ryunosuke replied in a deep voice. Although his posture was very flamboyant, but because he knew that Nakahara Chu in front of him was also the former partner of the person he admired, every word he said was respectful: "The leader means a monster attack The scope of Yokohama is too large, and I received news that the government's Supernatural Secret Service is about to intervene in the incident, but the boss's attitude is still... our port mafia must take down the enemy."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's eyes flashed a hint of ruthlessness, which is natural, the mafia will never allow others to cause trouble on its own territory, not to mention that this series of monster attacks initially caused the heaviest losses to the port mafia, if Letting the government step in makes the whole thing go away, and they probably won't be able to "punish" the enemy themselves.

"So let me temporarily put down the work at hand...to help you seniors."

After Akutagawa Ryunosuke finished the message he needed to deliver, he turned around again—unexpectedly, just as he was about to meet Nakahara Chuya, the one who turned around and met his eyes was Mishima Yuka That magnified face.

She didn't know when she came close to him, and looked at him curiously with her right eye that was not covered by her bangs.

"...Miss Mishima?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's face darkened, looking at the beautiful woman who suddenly approached him, her facial features and skin were really exquisite without a trace of blemish, but Akutagawa was Akutagawa, and he was so sensual about women. Not interested, just stretched out his hand and subconsciously wanted to push the woman away, but he didn't dare to do it because of the boss's order...

Therefore, before he pushed away, Mishima Yusa took the opportunity to take advantage of it, and she stretched out her hand to hold Akutagawa in her arms without saying a word, and then reached out to stroke his head, with an intoxicated expression on her face: "Yeah!" , Mr. Nakaya, this Akutagawa-kun is really cuter the more he looks..."

"Let go... let me...!" Akutagawa was strangled in pain, and finally, because of the arrogance in his bones, he directly attacked Mishima Yusao with Rashomon.

But the girl just jumped back briskly, and hid directly behind Nakahara Chuya, and Rashomon just stopped in front of Nakahara Chuya, just stopping the scene where Akutagawa tore Mishima Yusuke with his hands.

"Mishima, stop playing tricks on Akutagawa."

"I see, I just think he's cute."

"It's not a good thing to be stared at by you..."

Nakahara Naka also sighed helplessly, while Mishima Yusae who was standing beside him lowered his eyes halfway, still smiling with ease on his lips.

She did not respond to Nakahara Chuya's comment that "it would be no good to be targeted by her". Instead, her clear eyes only focused on reflecting Akutagawa's angry figure, and her eyes were calm without any waves or emotions.

But that ruthlessness was only for a moment, and in the next second, she habitually placed a friendly and lovely expression on her face, and then smiled sweetly and reached out to Akutagawa, shaking hands with him.

"Since we want to cooperate... then I will give you a lot of advice, Akutagawa-kun."

And Akutagawa was captured by the girl's clear eyes, and raised his hand by mistake, holding her cold and soft hand, and then, seeing the smile on the girl's lips, another crazy thought came to his mind.

This guy, looks like...

Much like his Mr. Dazai.

Could this be his illusion?

……

the other side.

Osamu Dazai, who ran away immediately after Akutagawa's appearance, naturally returned to the Armed Detective Agency in nine seconds nine.

Today he followed Mishima Yuka to Chinatown, and the monster he encountered accidentally gave him a new understanding of the case.

That's because, his supernatural ability turned the monster into nothingness twice in a row.

Once is a coincidence, twice is inevitable.

Necessarily proved that his supernatural powers are effective against those monsters.

And everything is just as Chuya said, this phenomenon proves one thing - that is, monsters are not monsters, monsters must be formed by supernatural powers, otherwise his "disqualification in the world" would not be activated.

But apart from that, there is also a question that Osamu Dazai cannot answer at the moment.

——That was the "sand" left on the scene after the monsters vanished into nothingness.

"Although it is not without the possibility that it is the ability of 'turning sand into monsters'..."

Osamu Dazai lay on the sofa, looking at his right hand.

When he touched Faqie today, he felt the same temperature as that of Heihao at that time. That touch reminded him all the time that no matter whether it was Faqie or Heihao, they were not cold "by-products of supernatural powers". Possibly, it is "the ability itself".

So, is the sand just something he doesn't know, or... the monster he invalidated was originally a superhuman ability?

Dazai didn't think any further.

After all, there are not enough clues at the moment. If he proceeds with the following reasoning rashly, it will easily force him to use false information...for example, his own inclination and emotion to draw an ambiguous direction. He wants to avoid this kind of reasoning trap.

Instead, I want to focus on finding "more clues" and "reasoning chips".

Thinking of this, Osamu Dazai's mind came up with the figure of Mishima Yuka, that beautiful girl with snow-white long hair.

There was one thing he really cared about about her.

It was not simply because of her status as the most famous mafia intelligence agent in Italy. In fact, what Dazai cared more about was the news she seemed to release on purpose half a month ago—the enemy would get a few more trucks. Unable to pretend to be her, she revealed her whereabouts and said that she was going to work in Japan.

Not long after the time passed, a series of monster attacks occurred in Yokohama.

Then, is the relationship between these two incidents a coincidence, a connection, or...a relationship?

……

"Mr. Dazai, the button you asked us to investigate has been confirmed to be the same as the button on Hei Hao's body."

And just when Dazai was immersed in thinking, Atsushi Nakajima came out of the research room of the Armed Detective Agency with a tray in his hands. On the tray, there were just two buttons.

They are all the same pattern, the words "Fiaba" above the flowers.

"Fiaba... means fairy tale in Italian." Doppo Kunikida picked up one of the buttons on the tray with gloves on, and looked at Osamu Dazai next door: "Dazai, have you heard anything about this Fiaba?" ?”

"Well, it's very sad, not at all."

Dazai smiled, leaned back on the sofa again, muttered and began to act like a baby: "Really Kunikida-kun, even if I was a mafia, you can't treat me as a mafia dictionary, even if it is Not every family has heard of it, have I?"

"After all, this device of yours, which is a waste of bandages, is only useful for this. Grit your teeth!" Kunikida twitched the corner of his mouth and hit the top of Dazai's head hard with the heavy book in his hand, as if he was right. He suddenly skipped the task a few days ago and was angry.

Dazai shrugged, never paying attention to Kunikida's level of anger.

And Kunikida looked at the back of Dazai's head, and sighed again after a long time: "Okay, since I don't have a clue, then I have no choice but to go to Italy myself."

Dazai exchanged a look with Kunikida when he heard that, then smiled and turned his gaze back to the button.

The tacit understanding between the two is self-evident.

Naturally, it also includes the part where Dazai must die.

So, when Kunikida started to think of a perfect plan to go to Italy for investigation, Osamu Dazai also thought of a hundred ways to play tricks on Kunikida at the same time.

I saw that he quickly clicked a video from his mobile phone, in which was Kunikida holding an Italian book and practicing in front of the mirror, Dazai smiled mysteriously——

"Speaking of...does Kunikida-kun need my company? You're just a math teacher who can't speak Italian well?"

"I! Now! Already! Already! Can! Go! Go! Yes! Talk! Now!" Kunikida was so angry that his hair stood on end, like a cat with fried hair: "I can't speak Italian, I just started learning it for a month When will you give me a longer memory?"

"Hey, Kyoka-chan, Atsu-kun, do you want to see it? I have it... Kunikida-kun secretly took a video of practicing speaking alone at night..."

"Dazai!!!!!!"

So, the armed detective agency exploded again.

……

The author has something to say: Congratulations to Brother Akutagawa for joining Yusae Mishima's Toy List√

By the way, he explained the reason why Dazai cares about Yusae Mishima!

Then let Kunikida come out and make soy sauce!
