Two or three things about having a crush on Mr. Dazai

"Dunjun." I said.

"Yes!" The boy with the white slanted bangs beside him could not wait to stand at attention.

I wondered: "Am I fierce? You are so nervous."

It's not my fault for asking, it's because he was too reserved, he was secretly looking at me all the way, and when I turned my head, he lowered his head as if he had been caught.

The reason why I will go with Atsushi Nakajima is because Atsushi Nakajima bumped into me in the coffee shop and interrupted my intimacy with Dazai.

At that time, Dazai's head was resting on my shoulder, and he asked him through me: "It's Atsu-kun, do you want to come over for a drink?"

"No, no, I still have a lot of work to do..."

The young man replied in a daze, and then remembered his purpose of coming here: "Mr. Dazai, Mr. Kunikida asked you to go up and help, there is a shortage of manpower up here..."

Dazai: "What about you?"

"I'm going out to buy some missing office supplies."

"Oh! Well, you and Qiu go together, Qiu is very familiar with this area."

Then Dazai ignored the stunned expression of the young man and sent me to him, not afraid that I would catch him halfway and return to Hong Kong for a bounty.

"……what?"

"Let's go, boy."

I have no objection to Dazai's arrangement, I just had a good meal and I'm in a good mood.And I also want to learn something from the Renhu Boy of the Butei Club.

Then there was Atsushi Nakajima walking by my side tremblingly.

"Am I fierce? You are so nervous."

"Not because of this..."

I said, "If you want to see it, I can watch it directly, without covering it up."

"Oh..." Nakajima Atsushi said, and then looked at me with a curious and admiring look.

I let him look at it generously, and then said with certainty: "You've heard of me."

Atsushi Nakajima smiled embarrassedly, and said: "Yes, I never knew what kind of person 'Autumn' would be...Ahahahaha, the first time I saw you, I couldn't help being a little surprised."

"You're surprised not only because of this." I pointed out.

Nakajima Atsushi continued to explain involuntarily: "Yes, it's also because of you and Mr. Dazai..." His face turned red again.

"Didn't expect us to be in this relationship?"

"Yes, it turns out Mr. Dazai does have a lover."

"No." I denied it.

"what?"

"We are not lovers."

Atsushi Nakajima: "Then you..."

I said, "If I have to say it, it's the relationship between cohabitants and mutual pursuit."

Atsushi Nakajima sighed: "It really is the 'unusual' relationship that Mr. Kunikida said."

However, the words "Isn't this just a lover" were clearly written on his face.

I pursed my lips without explaining.

Nakajima Atsushi must have heard my name from other people in the Butei Club, and with his simple nature, he has almost no defense against me. I don't need to work hard, and I can get a lot of news from him with a little guidance .

Atsushi Nakajima and Dazai met by chance.

He was kicked out of the orphanage, and when he was about to starve to death, he rescued Dazai who committed suicide by drowning in the water, and then got acquainted with Dazai and Kunikida.

Seems like a good-natured boy.

however……

"Dazai entered the water again? When?"

My focus is here.

Atsushi Nakajima mentioned a date, and said: "Mr. Dazai said that his wish is to die in love with Aki. Mr. Kunikida also said that 'it is more annoying to find Dazai when Aki is not around. He took good care of Dazai's words. At that time, I thought, what kind of mysterious person is 'Chu'."

All Armed Detective Agency knows that Dazai likes to hide from me and make me angry by committing suicide.

I felt helpless and amused by his narration, and twitched the corners of my mouth: "It's just an ordinary person who likes Dazai."

Atsushi Nakajima continued.

Later, he accidentally turned into a tiger in front of Dazai, only to learn that the "man-eating tiger" raging in Yokohama turned out to be his supernatural power.Nakajima Atsushi was relieved of his tiger status by Dazai's "disqualification in the world", and was recommended by Dazai to pass the test and enter the Armed Detective Agency.

For him, this is not only a career, but also a way of life in a desperate situation, so he respects Dazai very much.

Even with that, I respect Dazai's side very much.

"You're lucky," I said.

Atsushi Nakajima murmured: "I also feel very lucky to be able to enter the detective agency."

That's not what I meant.

The luck I'm talking about is that he met the current Dazai - the Dazai who saves the weak and protects the orphans.

If he met Dazai a few years ago, he might not be able to live as easily as he is now.Akutagawa and I are living examples.

"But I still got them in trouble."

Atsushi Nakajima clenched his fist in shame.

"Because the black market's 70 billion reward for Renhu attracted Mafia's pursuit?" I said calmly.

Atsushi Nakajima paused and asked in surprise, "Mr. Qiu also knows this?"

I said to myself that I know more than that, if Akutagawa hadn't taken over the task first, I would be the one who wants to capture you alive now.

I covertly told Atsushi Nakajima, and learned that he and the people from Buteisha had already met Akutagawa and Higuchi Ichiyo.

Higuchi tricked them out, and Akutagawa severely injured Tanizaki with Rashomon and cut off Nakajima Atsushi's leg.

However, "Tiger" has the ability to super-regenerate, and Atsushi Nakajima recovered from his injuries by virtue of his ability.Later, Tanizaki was also healed by Yosano Akiko's supernatural healing.

That time they were rescued by Dazai.

Atsushi Nakajima trembled, as if recalling something very scary, he said: "That person... is really scary!!"

For those who rarely experience combat, Rashomon's brutality can indeed leave a deep shadow on people.

But since Atsushi Nakajima was personally recommended by Dazai to join the club, apart from his kindness of saving people when he was starving to the brink of death, it is also because of his supernatural ability with great growth potential.

I can't understand how high Dazai's vision is.

I said: "Your ability is not bad, you can even be called extremely good."

A whole leg can be regenerated after being severed, which is like having a healing ability, and the combat endurance is quite strong.

The young man smiled wryly and laughed at himself: "I can't even control my transformation, how can I be outstanding..."

"Whether it counts or not depends on you. Mafia will not let you go with the sky-high bounty of 70 billion."

I speak in a calm and objective tone.

"Dun-jun, Mr. Dazai has saved you twice, don't let him down."

"Yes! I, I will definitely work hard!"

The young man became nervous again, straightened his back, and swore to me stammeringly.

"Try hard not to disappoint you and Mr. Dazai!"

Me: "Don't be nervous, I'm just reminding you."

"……Oh well."

Walking to the door of Buteisha's office, Atsushi Nakajima held a stack of office supplies and said, "By the way, Mr. Qiu, please be careful. The detective agency has been targeted by Mafia recently, and everyone may be in danger..."

Atsushi Nakajima's reminder was interrupted by Kunikida's voice: "Boy, you should be optimistic about yourself, Qiu is the one who has fought Akutagawa head-on."

"real?!"

Atsushi Nakajima opened his eyes wide in shock, and when he looked at me, he looked a little more incredible.

"Hmm." I nodded perfunctorily.

Looking around the interior of the office, the desks, chairs and decorations have been rearranged, but the dense bullet holes on the wall are very conspicuous.Look carefully at the size of the bullet hole, it just matches the Hong Kong black weapon model, it is undoubtedly the handicraft of the black lizard.

I said, "It looks like there was a lot of damage."

"Well, I haven't tidied it up yet, so I'm laughing at you." Kunikida Doppo said with a familiar attitude, "Sit down casually, Qiu, there is no extra manpower here to entertain you."

"Okay." I didn't care whether to entertain or not, and found Dazai's seat with ease.

After thinking about it, I think it's time to say hello to Kunikida.The black lizard has been kicked to the Butei office, and it is uncertain when he will meet me directly in front of the members of the Butei club.

"Mr. Kunikida, I may not be here for a while from now on."

"Oh, are you busy with work?" Kunikida asked.

Are the Mafia cadres on call at any time considered busy?

"Well," I said, "don't be too surprised if you see me in an unexpected place."

Kunikida looked puzzled: "Oh."

Atsushi Nakajima asked suspiciously: "Speaking of which, what does Mr. Qiu do?"

At this time, a natural boy with freckles on his face and wearing a bamboo hat passed by. With a big smile on his face, he explained to Atsushi Nakajima: "Mr. Aki's work is the same as Mr. Dazai, and there are rewards in the company!"

He is Kenji Miyazawa, who joined the Armed Detective Agency more than two months ago, and met me several times before the business trip.

The young man poached by Fukuzawa Yukichi from a remote rural village is simple and enthusiastic, and he is very sincere in his dealings with others.

"There is also a reward!!!" Atsushi Nakajima's eyes lit up.

"And Mr. Qiu and Mr. Dazai have known each other for many years. If you want to crack Mr. Dazai's previous occupation, it is a good choice to start with Mr. Qiu~"

Miyazawa Kenji smiled and reminded the newcomer Nakajima Atsushi who was newer than him.

Atsushi Nakajima suddenly filled with fighting spirit: "Okay. If you can't get Mr. Dazai's bounty, it's not bad to get Mr. Aki's reward. Please let me try!"

This boy, since he couldn't get Dazai's bounty, how could he think he could get mine?

Moreover, Renhu is worth 70 billion, but he himself looks so poor, so miserable.

I said: "You try."

"Wait, even if Qiu is guessed, he won't admit it?" Kunikida said, "It's because you didn't admit it that the reward has only hung up for two years..."

"No. I didn't admit it because no one guessed it. If someone guessed it, I wouldn't deny it."

My career in Hong Kong and Heilongjiang is a part of me. This is a fact, and there is no room for distinction.

Atsushi Nakajima was startled: "...Ah, Mr. Dazai also said the same thing."

Then he and Kenji Miyazawa surrounded me and guessed wildly.

It's a pity that neither of the newcomers guessed correctly; Kunikida didn't even participate, seeming to think that such wild guessing was childish.

Miyazawa Kenji asked naively: "Mr. Qiu, can you give me a little hint? Any hint is fine."

Of course, it was impossible for me to reveal it voluntarily, so I picked out information that was equal to not: "Mr. Dazai and I have a similar past."

Miyazawa Kenji fell into a dilemma, thinking hard.

Dazai happened to be back at this time.

He opened the door and walked into the office, and said hello, "Hey, Qiu, what are you talking about?"

Me: "Guessing my occupation."

"It's really a long-lived activity." Dazai asked, "Did they guess right?"

I shook my head.

Dazai: "Sure enough."

Miyazawa was full of interest: "Mr. Dazai, can you give me a reminder?"

Dazai thought for a while: "Okay. My reminder is - Qiu Zeng almost became my subordinate."

Atsushi Nakajima: "And develop an office romance?"

I complained: "Boss agreed, but Mr. Dazai did not agree."

Dazai: "At that time, I was obviously not in the same department, but Qiu still tried his best to go out with me."

Me: "However, you always tried your best to get rid of me, and finally ran away without a word while I was on a business trip."

Dazai: "..."

Dazai muttered: "Didn't you say you won't settle the old score?"

I remained calm: "You brought it up first."

Miyazawa Kenji listened with gusto.

"I know!" Atsushi Nakajima raised a finger, full of confidence, "It must be in a certain company!"

Dazai: "No~No~ too broad, not valid!"

Miyazawa: "Is it something like a village committee?"

Dazai: "This seems to be farther away~"

Atsushi Nakajima: "People like Mr. Dazai and Mr. Aki have nothing to do with the village committee!"

Dazai laughed.

Atsushi Nakajima: "Let me guess one more... Is Mr. Qiu a member of the special forces? It's the kind that maintains peace and saves people from fire and water."

He guessed more and more, and even cited evidence: "That's why he has such a good skill, and he is quite patient with suicide lovers!"

I:"……"

It also maintains peace and saves people from fire and water.It is not easy for you young man to guess the identity of the assassin in the opposite direction.

"wrong!"

Dazai replied for me, "The past between me and Qiu is a secret that only each other knows. Give up, boy~"

Atsushi Nakajima was beaten down.

Kunikida: "If you can't guess, don't guess. Get moving, there are still many things to be done! It's all due to the violent Mafia... Aki, I didn't mention you, you are a guest. Dazai! Don't hide behind Aki, I Although I am nearsighted, I am not blind yet!"

Dazai was spotted, so he stuck his head out.

"So smart Kunikida-kun, what do you think is the most unlikely job for Shu?"

Kunikida was still directing the work just now, but was distracted by Dazai's question: "The most unlikely?...Anyway, it can't be Mafia."

Dazai and I looked at each other.

Dazai: "What if it is?"

I instantly understood what Dazai meant.

The conflict between Hong Kong gangsters and Butei is imminent, and my identity will be revealed at any time.

Everyone else in the Armed Detective Agency is easy to talk about, but after two years, we know that Kunikida Doppo is the most demanding of justice in the "ideal", for the sake of his heart, it is better to prepare a little foreshadowing.

Unexpectedly, Kunikida said without hesitation: "You fart."

His attitude was so determined that he took Dazai's words as a bad joke and gave Dazai an angry look.

Dazai: "..."

I:"……"

It seems that the impression I left on Kunikida in the past two years is too deep-rooted, and his thinking can no longer be reversed.

Dazai simply said to me, "Where are you going next? Back to Mafia?"

Me: "Wait for you at home first, and go back when we have news. Be careful, because Akutagawa's mission is hindered. He holds a grudge against you and may attack you."

Dazai: "Hi~"

Nakajima Atsushi and Miyazawa Kenji looked at me and Dazai who were in a direct showdown, and then at Kunikida, both of them looked confused.

I am calm on the surface, but I am inevitably a little nervous inside.

Having known each other for so long, will Kunikida...

However, the man just put his hands on his hips and said unhappily: "Hey, Qiu, don't cooperate with him in acting so naturally!"

I:"……"

Play a yarn.

When he said this, Atsushi Nakajima suddenly realized: "Ah, hahaha, it turned out to be acting! If Mr. Qiu is really Mafia, how could he sit here and chat with us, he must have taken me away!"

Kenji Miyazawa's reaction was similar to his: "As expected of an unusual cohabitation relationship, Mr. Aki and Mr. Dazai really have a tacit understanding!"

These days, no one believes the truth.

Dazai: "It seems that compared to the vicious and cruel Mafia, Qiu Masaru's upright appearance is more suitable for our side." The ending sound rose and the tone was light.

I said helplessly, "Stop joking."

Taking the opportunity to tempt me to quit Butei?Even if Mori Ogai agreed, Fukuzawa Yukichi couldn't possibly agree.

Along with my voice came Kunikida Doppo's scolding voice.

This high-minded idealist who couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes really got angry at this moment, and he seriously warned: "Dazai, don't make some jokes."

"Even if Qiu doesn't care, slandering someone's identity is still a despicable act."

The atmosphere was a bit condensed, the two newcomers did not say a word, Dazai apologized casually: "Hi~ I was wrong, I apologize, I shut up."

He patted the back of my hand secretly, indicating that I don't need to take it to heart, and I don't need to explain.

I couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

I am very grateful to Kunikida for protecting me, but in fact, Dazai did not slander my identity in any way.

What Kunikida Doppo defended was not the real me, but the shadow of "justice" he saw in me.

……

Miyazawa Kenji suddenly said: "Mr. Kunikida speaks to Mr. Dazai like a mother-in-law in our village accusing a naughty son for the sake of a good daughter-in-law."

The simple country boy started talking in shocking words, and everyone was stunned.

I:"……"

Atsushi Nakajima: "..."

Dazai: "...Huh?"

Good wife?naughty son?Evil mother-in-law?

Is that the case, then I hope that mother-in-law Kunikida-kun will not beat us to death after knowing that his son and daughter-in-law have all been Mafia cadres.

Kunikida Doppo went crazy: "Kenji-kun, don't beat me up if you don't know how to use metaphors! This will make people very troubled!"

Miyazawa Kenji scratched his head and laughed heartily: "Really, yes, I know!"
