[Bungo Stray Dogs] With the Light and the Dust

Once, twice, three times... ten times... twenty times... a hundred times...

——

It's still the same clear sky in summer.

"Well, I'm sorry," the white-haired boy with slanted bangs asked cautiously, "The entrustment is to get rid of thieves, but aren't there too many people on our side?"①

"That's because..." Captain Walston, who was receiving the Armed Detective Agency who had just arrived on the island, looked away hesitantly, and he knew that there was something to hide.

The young man with brown hair and pigtails - Kunikida Doppo frowned and was about to ask something, when a man in a guard uniform rushed up in front of him, and immediately opened his mouth to report after standing still.

"Report to the captain, someone has smuggled into the island again!"

……again?

Atsushi and Kunikida, who noticed the word, looked at each other in unison.

"Why at this time... dispatch the guards, we must find the stowaways, it would be terrible if they are terrorists." Captain Walston ordered the guards, sighed tiredly, and then he saw the people staring at him intently. A member of the detective agency, paused and said, "...Come with me, everyone, and settle down first."

"Please, please wait a moment!" Nakajima Atsushi turned his gaze to observe the surroundings, and suddenly saw a very familiar figure not far away. The figure walked slowly with his hands in his pockets, and turned around the corner of the street and disappeared after a while. up.

He didn't have time to think, so he hurriedly chased after him without saying a word.

"Atsushi!" Kunikida yelled, but couldn't stop Nakajima Atsushi who had already run out.

"What's the matter with this guy!" Kunikida said angrily while pushing his glasses, then turned to the captain and said, "Sorry, I made you laugh, I'll call him back!"

"Ah, no, it's okay." Captain Walston waved his hand.

With Nakajima Atsushi's feet, he quickly passed through the crowd and caught up with the very familiar figure.

Slightly curly black hair, white shirt sleeves rolled up to the elbows, and bandages wrapped around his neck and arms—it was indeed the person he knew, but there was an inexplicable sense of strangeness that made him afraid to approach him.

"Mr. Dazai, why are you...?"

"Ah, it's Atsu-kun~" Osamu Dazai stopped, turned sideways and greeted him with a smile.

The familiar tone reassured Atsushi Nakajima a little, and he approached a little closer, "Why is Mr. Dazai here? Mr. Kunikida said that you jumped into the sea at the port where you assembled. Could it be..."

"Did it come by swimming?!"

Thinking of this possibility, Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking up and down at Osamu Dazai.Speaking of which, Mr. Dazai did not usually wear this outfit, so it must have been changed after he came to the island, right?

Hearing Atsushi Nakajima's guess, Osamu Dazai burst out laughing with a "poof" and rolled his eyes.

"Dun-kun's imagination is getting more and more creative, but unfortunately, I guessed wrong~ If I came by swimming, I would probably be eaten by a shark halfway~"

"Because it's Mr. Dazai, no matter what you do, you won't be surprised..." Atsushi Nakajima whispered, seeing Osamu Dazai walking forward, he followed after thinking about it .

As for Kunikida-san, it's better to apologize later.

"Speaking of which, the job of the detective agency this time is to get rid of thieves, right, Don-kun."

"Ah, yes!"

"For thieves, it's right there." Osamu Dazai stopped in his tracks.

Atsushi Nakajima looked in the direction he indicated, and saw a three-person group of tourists sitting there in the shadow of the building beside the broad street, as if they were talking about something. ②

"Mr. Dazai, how do you know...?" Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help asking even though he knew that there was no need to doubt Dazai Osamu's judgment.Before he finished speaking, he saw that Osamu Dazai had already walked towards those three people.

He put away his doubts and hurriedly followed.As the distance gradually shortened, the conversation between the three people became a little clearer.

"Excuse me, my name is Osamu Dazai, could you please do me a favor." Osamu Dazai looked down at the trio of thieves sitting on the ground, and said calmly with a smile.

Atsushi Nakajima's eyes flicked across the faces of the three of them. With his excellent eyesight, he noticed that the boy in the trio who was about two or three years younger than himself suddenly shrank his pupils when he saw Osamu Dazai .

And the other side.

Bei Chenguang, with loose hair and home clothes, was carrying a bag of garbage and was planning to go out to throw it away.

She crossed the street and reached the gray iron trash can on the opposite side. She reached out and lifted the round iron lid of the trash can.

"Wow - I was taken aback!"

The person hiding in the trash can caressed his chest exaggeratedly, and said in Bei Chenguang's familiar voice, "Walk without sound at all, it's too scary! But——it's a surprise from heaven if it's a beautiful lady~ Please die with me..."

Bei Chenguang put back the lid of the trash can with a calm expression, turned around and walked to the next trash can with the trash bag.

"Please wait, miss!" The lid of the trash can was pushed up by a head with fluffy hair. The man grabbed the edge of the trash can with both hands, blinking his eyes and looked over innocently.

"What's the matter?" Bei Chenguang threw the rubbish into the trash can next to him, and then his eyes fell on him.

That person—the Dazai of this world observed Bei Chenguang's expression, and said "Huh", showing a strange expression, "Miss, did we know each other before?"

Bei Chen shook his head without changing his face.

"Indeed, if I meet such a beautiful lady, I will never forget it~" Dazai thoughtfully, looked up at Bei Chenguang carefully, and finally his eyes stayed in her eyes, and said slowly, "But Miss, you , but it looks like he knows me."

"Is that so?" Bei Chenguang turned his head and asked, seeing a patrolling guard appearing on the other side of the street.

Dazai obviously saw it too, he retracted his head into the trash can, and the lid of the trash can closed firmly with a "click".

"Miss Beichen, have you seen any suspicious people around here?" Coincidentally, the person who led the search team was Mr. John who seemed to be around 360 days a year.

"Suspicious person?"

"Yes, another stowaway sneaked in on the island, a tall man with black hair." John sighed deeply when he said "again".When he saw Bei Chenguang appearing here alone, without Dazai Zhi who was almost inseparable, he thought of the appearance of the stowaway described to him by his guards, and casually said, "Speaking of which, the stowaway they described looks like A bit like……"

"I seem to have seen a suspicious person going there just now." Bei Chenguang interrupted John's words, and pointed in a direction casually, with a serious expression that looked very believable.

Without any doubt, John led the guards and chased in that direction.

When they were too far away to see their figures, the lid of the trash can moved, and Dazai poked his head out again.

He heard the entire conversation between Bei Chenguang and John.

But he didn't ask who was interrupted by Bei Chenguang, but tilted his head and looked at her with a smile, "My name is Osamu Dazai, can you tell me your name, beautiful lady~"

"Beichenguang."

Dazai pronounced her name several times, raised his eyes and raised the final sound slightly, "Compared to [Miss Beichen], I think Miss Guang is more fluent~"

Bei Chenguang was silent for a while, then turned and walked towards the house across the street. Dazai let out a "hey", retracted the trash can again, and closed the lid himself, and then accompanied by a slight sound, the trash can swayed and fell to the ground. Bei Chenguang rolled and followed in the direction he was going out.

The author has something to say: Wu Zhenzai: Miss Guang~

Chief Zai: Shut up!

The leader over there is still fooling Dun Dun and making troubles. He never expected that it was just a wrong-eyed Kung Fu Wu Jingzai who hooked up with his own Miss Guang... [Laughing pig screams]

I was wondering whether to let Akutagawa take a look at Shuangzai. After all, even if I go to Yokohama in the future, Akutagawa will not be able to see the picture of Shuangzai in the same frame after Buteizai is imprisoned [Meditation.jpg]
