[Bungo Stray Dogs] With the Light and the Dust

"Senior, you have been working overtime for two weeks, why don't you take a vacation to rest? I think your hairline seems a little dangerous..."

The black-haired woman in business attire stared at her boss' forehead boredly for a while, and couldn't help giving advice.

And the person she persuaded was Ango Sakaguchi, the assistant counselor of the Supernatural Special Affairs Division, and one of the few elites in the Special Affairs Division.

He was sitting in a quiet and remote corner of the cafe, wearing a withered leaf-colored suit with the air of a university professor, and round-rimmed glasses, giving off a calm and quiet feeling.However, the depths of his eyes flashed like sharp iron needles.

"It's okay." Ango Sakaguchi took a sip of his coffee, and just as he put down his cup, he saw the person he was going to meet today push open the door of the cafe and walk in.

It's not quite the same as he imagined.

"Yo, Ango."

The young man in a white shirt with bandages smiled and raised his hand as a greeting. He walked to the table, put his coat on the back of the chair, and sat down opposite Ango Sakaguchi.

"Go and wait over there." Sakaguchi Ango said to the younger generation who came with him.

"But Senior Ango..."

"Go."

The black-haired woman closed her mouth and waited where she couldn't hear the conversation.

"... Dazai-kun." Ango Sakaguchi took out the key wrapped in a handkerchief from his pocket and put it on the table, "How do you prove that what you said is true."

"Hey -- it's really sad, I thought Ango came to the appointment because he believed me." Osamu Dazai said in a drawn-out voice, but there was no hint of sadness in the voice on his face, but more cheerful laughed.

Ango Sakaguchi was keenly aware that the Osamu Dazai in front of him at this moment was different from any Dazai he had known in any period.Compared with the young cadres in the mafia period, he has the pressure that can only be given by a higher-ranking person.If anything, Ango Sakaguchi would feel this kind of pressure only when facing Mori Ogai, the leader of the mafia.

However, he had a look that the Dazai he knew that Ango Sakaguchi had never had, the look of giving up on begging for death.

What is causing this difference?

As Sakaguchi Ango was thinking this way, his expression remained unchanged.

"You yourself know that's impossible, Dazai-kun."

Osamu Dazai was about to say something while maintaining that smile, when suddenly he heard a "beep".

It was the notification sound of the mobile phone receiving the message.

Because of the quietness of the surrounding environment, that "beep" was very obvious.

Osamu Dazai made a pause gesture to Ango Sakaguchi, took out his mobile phone and glanced at the received message, a smile appeared in his eyes, and then quickly entered the message to reply.

There was a "ding dong".

It was the sound of a letter being sent.

"Okay, Ango, let's continue." Osamu Dazai put away the phone as if nothing had happened.

Sakaguchi Ango suddenly couldn't say anything.

say what?Why do you have to smile so rippling when you reply a message?Or do I think your attitude of talking is not correct?

"It's almost time."

Osamu Dazai chuckled suddenly, his kite-colored eyes raised, nonchalantly revealing a kind of cold indifference that made people hold their breath involuntarily.

"Varied...?"

Before the words fell, the communicator carried by Ango Sakaguchi rang.

"This is Ango Sakaguchi." He picked up the communication, and the report from the communicator made him unable to look at Osamu Dazai who was knocking on the coffee cup every time.

"The devil has been successfully captured?"

"Okay, I know."

"Give me a detailed report later."

Ango Sakaguchi ended the communication.

"You look relieved, Ango."

"Since this matter is over, then..."

"This is just the beginning, how can you say it's the end." Dazai Osamu quietly watched the ugly face of Ango Sakaguchi, his dialysis eyes seemed to cast from another time and space, "You are still naive, Ango .”

"What is your purpose?" Sakaguchi Ango asked.

This question caught Dazai Osamu, his inscrutable expression cracked, he rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought, and after a while he hesitated and said, "Well, save the world?"

"...Are you trying to complain about me?"

"Tch, it's obviously you who want to complain."

Sakaguchi Ango closed his eyes tiredly and pinched the bridge of his nose, "Just do as you say."

"Then see you in a month~"

Having settled the matter, Osamu Dazai stretched his waist without staying longer, stood up from his seat, put the coat on the back of the chair back into his arms, raised his hand as he did when he came, and waved his hands casually as a farewell, and then passed by Ango Sakaguchi go outside.

When passing by, Sakaguchi Ango opened his eyes, and asked softly with some hesitation:

"Dazai-kun, you already have something you want to pursue even if you prolong your painful life, don't you?"

The footsteps stopped for a while.

Osamu Dazai didn't look back, but replied firmly with a smiling voice, "Yes."

——

Yokohama.

"It looks really peaceful."

The red-haired boy in a suit, who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, sighed thoughtfully as he watched the streets full of people coming and going, then turned his head and saw the Hong Kong Hei Building, which was almost a landmark building in Yokohama, on the other side of the river.

Forget it, let's take this sentence back.

"You actually asked me to find someone, I really don't know what Teacher Dazai thinks." Chiyejiu sighed, turned and walked forward, "But we still have to find a way, otherwise we will disappoint Teacher Dazai's trust. "

But when he took two steps, an accident happened.

The strange black cloth spewed out through the ground, caught Chi Yejiu's feet unexpectedly, and entangled it like a snake.

Then came a low, coughing sound.

"You mean Dazai-sensei?"

It was a young man wrapped in a black coat as if he hated the sun.In order to hide the face, the neckline of the black coat has been extended to near the mouth.The light emitted from the only exposed eye was extremely sharp. ①

The strange black cloth on the ground stretches to his coat.On the black coat, animal teeth and beasts, poisonous insects and pythons competed and revealed, as if there were countless evil lives lodged on it.

The young man - Akutagawa Ryunosuke, the vicious dog of the port mafia, stared at Akaye Hato with sharp eyes, and there was no trace of warmth in his voice, "Who are you!"

He even directly called that man Mr. Dazai, even Renhu had never called him that!

"This sentence should be my line?" Chiyejiu glanced at the black cloth wrapped around his feet, frowned, and there was a little doubt on his childish face, "Who are you?"

The author has something to say: Akutagawa: Obviously, obviously I am the only one who is qualified to call it that!Why did another pop up all of a sudden? !

Locomotive Chu crashed again, this pool... so poisonous... I'm dead
