"There are not many clues at the scene, and the prisoner's mind is very meticulous. But after I logged into the guy's computer, I found the information he left for me."

The guy Kunikida was talking about was the victim who was an informer—Taguchi Rokuzo.

"Is it a clue to the murderer who hurt him?" Dun reasonably guessed.

Kunikida looked a little gloomy, and he shook his head, "No, it was the information that guy brought up after I called——about the 'Continuous Disappearance of Yokohama Tourists'. He found suspicious characters and traced clues, and placed them in In the encrypted computer file, I tried his father's birthday, and I was lucky enough to enter the desktop and see the file."

"The police responsible for investigating the case were unable to obtain the list of auction buyers and the corresponding purchased weapons, and due to the high level of secrecy, all the auction items on the day of the auction did not show up, and the used supernatural weapons were in the testing agency There is no trace of detection, most likely because the energy stored in it is exhausted. It is very difficult to obtain evidence now."

"The most important thing is that the boy from Liuzang fell into a coma with unknown reasons, but the hospital has been unable to find out the cause, let alone treat it. That's why I hope you can help, Guang Zhou." This is the first time Kunikida said that Call the person by their name solemnly.

Even if this man is still trapped in the gloomy clouds, he can still see the light of determination in the eyes behind the lens.

"Ah, my Highness knows it. What a bunch of troublesome and self-righteous human beings. Huh, in the end, I still turn to the great dark emperor for help." Guangzhou raised the corners of his mouth uncontrollably, and tapped his hands casually a few times computer.

"Those so-called weapons are just my random creations. There are too many of them. I won't bother to remember any special magical effects. Nah—take them and see for yourself, human beings."

Without thinking at all, you sent out the organization's secrets like this?Even at my own request, isn't it too...casual to be the leader?

How did he manage to survive in Yokohama, where people eat people without spit out their bones?

The sound of the computer receiving information synchronously was like the sound of heaven. Kunikida, whose thoughts were interrupted, was in a complicated mood, but his brain still involuntarily sent out a hint signal—this was probably the first time that Kunikida felt that the other party was so pleasing to the eye.

The idealist realist glanced at the heartless Dark Emperor, who had already started tinkering with the parts in his hands indifferently.

Kunikida opened his mouth full of worry, and wanted to say something, he didn't know whether it was embarrassing thanks or annoying exhortation, but he swallowed it back in the end.

"Well, by the way, isn't Kunikida-kun following up on the missing tourist case?" Dazai asked vaguely as he took a bite of an apple.

"Of course we have to follow up! The other party pointed me to complete the commission, how could I give up at will? After sending the auction list to the detective agency affairs department for investigation, I will follow up this case - this is likely to be the breakthrough point for the kid to be attacked .”

Kunikida's expression was filled with pain and guilt, "I suspect that it's probably because of my intervention that that kid Liuzang suffered an indiscriminate disaster. After the incident of the King of Cang, I already..."

The man quickly adjusted his state, and seemed to have regained his composure. He just copied the file into the USB flash drive, and then hurried to the door, walking into the overwhelming gray rain.

Looking at the back of Kunikida who was busy leaving, Dazai, who was lying on the sofa on his back, seemed to be very emotional, "Ah, Kunikida-kun really worked hard. Or is it better to be a workaholic?"

Atsushi glanced at the idle Dazai.

...Mr. Dazai, is it really okay for you to say that?

Before long, the creature on the couch writhed like a dead fish.

"Ah! It's raining today! My plan to die for love has been ruined!" As the only senior with the most seniority left in the detective agency, Dazai was rolling around on the sofa, completely lacking the appearance that a senior should have.

moan and groan.

"The poisonous mushrooms were also put away by Kunikida's mother. You can't die if you jump from the fourth floor of the detective agency, and you will be splashed with dirty muddy water. It is too painful to commit suicide with a gun, and you have to watch your own blood come from it." It’s really sad to flow out of the body.”

The man muttered, picking and choosing ways to die.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something.

"You-jun!"

As soon as Guangzhou looked up, he saw almost a centimeter away—the extraordinarily huge eyes, and the shining stars in them could almost illuminate the entire office.

"That Alice in Wonderland! That supernatural weapon that allows people to die happily in a dream! Is there any more? Kunikida-kun, who rarely talks about it, is not here today!"

The excited Dazai couldn't help rubbing his hands.

"Mr. Dazai, I remember that your supernatural ability can 'nullify supernatural abilities'?...Then as a weapon for using supernatural abilities, it should not be applicable to you, right?" Dun still remembered Dazai's previous combat meeting Introduce yourself.

"...It seems to be right. What a mistake, I didn't expect Dun Jun to think of things that even I couldn't think of!"

Saying that, the suicide lover visibly weakened.

Dazai, who fell on the ground like garbage and lost his target, was extremely bored, and wanted to pass the painful time that he couldn't die for love.

"Youjun, have you ever killed someone?"

Just asking the question sounds weird and offensive.

But when he thought of Mr. Dazai who pursued death as his goal in life, Atsushi felt relieved.

"Is there any point in depriving human life? I have never killed anyone, and I have no plans to kill anyone in the future."

Guang Zhou put the brand new work on the table, thought for a while and answered puzzled.

"..." Dazai, who was blocked by the desk and unable to peek at his face, was lying on the ground.

The man stared at the void with dark eyes, and asked after a long silence, "Then, why don't you kill people? ——Even in a detective agency that is moral, the main investigators have all seen real Blood and death, not to mention the port mafia and foreign secret parties known for their brutality."

"Human life is so fragile, like a vase that will shatter when pushed down lightly. Earthquakes, landslides, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, these natural disasters caused by the random manipulation of the natural universe-"

"Even the pink demon beast, the protector of the country from our dark empire, can destroy the entire world 230 times in ten seconds, not to mention me, who is on the mission of the God of Darkness, to induce large-scale hallucinations, virus magic attacks, teleportation liberation A weapon beyond the world. At this second, I can even imagine tens of thousands of ways to destroy the world before tomorrow. Such a fragile cosmic creature still has to work hard to destroy it. Are you underestimating me, the Dark Emperor?"

"..."

These words were aboveboard, and the loud voice spread to every corner of the office, and the expressions of the passing clerks looked particularly strange, probably a strange expression similar to embarrassment and suppressed laughter.

"Hahahahahahahahaha! To be honest, I really admire it!"

Dazai rolling on the ground.

Just judging from the sound, it seems that the lobes of his lungs are laughing out, and no one can see the hollow color rolling in his eyes.

He stood up staggeringly, covered his stomach with one hand, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with the other hand, and admired sincerely, "Youjun...that's really amazing! The death I pursued so hard is actually here Is it something that is within your reach in your eyes? Being able to live in such a perfect world is simply the happiest thing in the world."

Dun, who was on the side, ran to the other end of the conference room desperately holding the documents.

Who can stand such an inhuman conversation?

"Did you know? When Kunikida came into contact with the dead at work for the first time, he cried until he couldn't stand up." Dazai fished out a photocopy of the ideal manual from somewhere, and spread it out with a chuckle. A certain page was displayed in front of the wide-eyed Guang Zhou.

It recorded Kunikida's work diary several years ago.

I haven't waited for Guangzhou to finish reading——

"Speaking of which, I knew someone before." Dazai's voice suddenly became very soft, "Because of the reason of wanting to be in charge of the family, I gave up killing people. Although he has terrible abilities, he is like a man bound by the chains of his dreams." The dragon of Lethal Weapon, wretchedly languishing at the bottom of the Mafia, doing chores no one wants to do."

Guangzhou listened to the bandage weirdo suddenly telling a story on his own, and raised his head to look at him curiously.

Dazai leaned against Guang Zhou's desk, with his elbows propped in front of him, and his eyes fell on the hand he was holding vainly, "Guess what happened?" He raised his eyebrows brightly, showing off.

"It stands to reason," the black-haired boy who was attracted by the story thought seriously.

"It should be at dusk when the setting sun was like fire. Because this person was bound by the oath of 'not killing people', he was hurt by a low-level enemy. He went to seek revenge on the other party in anger, and the two died together. Under the bloody sunset—red spreads across the land."

Dazai stared blankly at the boy, his pupils shrank suddenly, stirring up a black storm.

The expression is almost stunned.

However, Dazai didn't expect that none of the previous words were what Guang Zhou wanted to say, what he really wanted to say was the latter part.

——This story actually has a sequel.

"At this time, it penetrated into the soil that gave birth to the dark atmosphere. What he never expected was that his delicious blood actually awakened the abyss monsters that lived underground. The blood containing magic power nourished the vitality of the monsters, and the monsters reappeared. In the world, the monster looked at the dying man, and the tentacles of thought penetrated into the mind of the dying man, and as a result, the monster was actually moved by his dream of becoming a family."

The young man was full of emotion, and lowered his voice to pretend to be the devil's hoarse voice: "After a long time, the devil said deeply—"I didn't expect the person who could wake me up to be the one who dreamed of writing the world with words." , You have moved me with your terrifying willpower, heh, let me save you, a human being on the precarious frontier."

The voice became flattering again, "The dying man was awakened, he looked at the devil who saved him, and thanked him tearfully, 'Unexpectedly, the legendary black... devil would reappear in the world because of an unknown pawn like me, I am willing to be a cow or a horse to repay your kindness'. From then on, there will be one more believer in the black...black demon in the world."

Dazai: "..."

……Are you alright?To tell a story, you must make yourself into it?

Grinding and chirping to the world where the detective agency is about to get off work, the sound of pattering rain outside can be heard, the sweltering heat evaporates to the ground, and a salty, hot and humid smell rises from the ground, fortunately, the indoor air conditioner is sufficient Strong, keeping the sticky air out, looking out of the window, you can witness the housewives and working people who ran out while the rain stopped breaking through the heavy air and walking in the puddles with their trousers.

In less than half an hour, the water on the ground was evaporated, leaving only uncomfortable heat.

"Remember to switch the channel to human news in half an hour. My Dark Emperor will show you a miracle that you will never forget!"

Gwangju, who took the portable air conditioner away again, said so, and left the detective agency at the moment when the working hours of the detective agency were over without looking back.

Tanizaki and Dr. Yosano, who had returned from the busy investigation and autopsy, turned their heads and glanced at the closed door in confusion.

The air conditioner just disappeared for a while, and the sticky feeling outside, like a snake licking human skin, penetrated everywhere. Several people in the detective agency unconsciously sped up their hands and were about to leave and return to the staff dormitory .

It took a while for someone to react, "What is the miracle that Yu said just now?" Tanizaki asked.

Dr. Yosano, who stuffed the dreadful hatchet back into his backpack, could already feel the sign of his shirt sticking to his back, and she replied indifferently.

"After half an hour, it's enough time to go back to the dormitory anyway, and I'll probably know by watching the TV news. As long as I don't run to eat barbecue, do autopsies, and set off fireworks next to those lunatics of the port mafia, it won't be a big deal. occur."

The members laughed a few times and left the detective agency with a smile.After packing up his things, Dun closed the door of the detective agency, and followed behind the senior door step by step.

"Did Kunikida-san come back today?" Atsushi asked.

"Well, that workaholic, maybe the case is more troublesome."

At dusk in Yokohama, the blue and red colors are like smudged watercolors being splashed on the sky by ghostly painters. The coming night wind is wrapped in Yokohama's unique seafood, which is salty.

Mori Ogai took out a bottle of long-preserved red wine from the wine storage cabinet, gently held the bottle wall with white gloves, and poured the dark liquid into a transparent container.With one hand behind his back, he stood in front of the frighteningly large French windows holding a wine glass in the other.

In front of his line of sight was Yokohama high in the sky.

This port city is like a docile beast, unreservedly showing its soft belly to the leader of the port mafia.

The endless incidents, overwhelming conspiracies, heart-wrenching sadness, and deep-rooted happiness are all in the swaying wine in the wine glass.

This is his favorite view, and it is also his favorite city, and it is the thing that he will sacrifice everything worth cherishing to preserve in cold blood.

"leader."

A hoarse male voice came from the side.

But it's not unpleasant, probably because the owner of the voice always likes to yell without hesitation when leading his subordinates to suppress other forces, and his voice is always a little hoarse and magnetic when he speaks quietly.

Mori Ogai glanced at him with a smile, and the person opposite put his hands down from the black top hat, and stood up straight again. Even this most restrained posture could not stop the beast-like vibe that this person exuded from the inside out. Evil and arrogant.

"Nakaya-kun, is there any progress with the things I entrusted to you last time?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also immediately understood who the leader was referring to, and his brows were instantly knotted. Even if his well-shaped eyes were staring into one big and one small at this time, it didn't look ridiculous.

"That guy stayed in that detective agency and didn't come out at all. I don't plan to meet him before the next time I directly defeat that bastard Dazai. After I snatch his members over, ha! He can enjoy my meticulous care. He prepared a surprise!" Chuya's expression was gloomy.

Probably thinking of Dazai pretending to be the leader in the auction to play tricks on him before.

After a sudden pause, Chuya reached for the phone from his pocket and picked it up.

The mafia leader looked out of the window again, as if he didn't want to miss any second of the beautiful scenery.

And Chuya's expression became more and more strange with the words on the other side, "...that kid left the detective agency 10 minutes ago? What, you idiots lost it?"

The man in the black suit on the other side of the phone was holding the phone, and his tone was filled with inexplicable panic, "Yes, after the black-haired surveillance subject came out of the detective agency, he walked to the corner of the street and took out a candy from his pocket, which can blow bubbles. We didn't pay attention to the kind of bubbles - as a result, he suddenly blew up the gum while walking!"

"Huh? So what?" Nakaya's eyebrows were raised extremely high, wondering what the usually reliable subordinates were doing.

"It's blowing up! The chewing gum got bigger and bigger, and it became bigger and bigger, and finally turned into a bubble several meters high, covering his whole body!!! When we went up to check, the bubble exploded ! The other person is gone too!" The subordinate who was holding the exploded bubble gum was a little aggrieved.

"..."

what the hell? ? ?

Nakahara Chuya's eyes fell on his phone, his face full of sadness.Some wondered if the guy who was giving himself the great reward for confusing the world had been dropped by the enemy.

"Continue tomorrow." Zhong also cut off the phone irritably.

Mori Ogai at the side was not disturbed by the sound of the phone, calmly watching the stunning red color gradually sinking outside the floor-to-ceiling window, smiled lightly, seemingly without any meaning, Chuya's eyes then fell outside the window.

The red-orange color wraps the leader of the port mafia warmly in the light jelly. The black hair combed back and the shadows that seem to be invisible in front of his eyes are unexpectedly soft. At first glance, he looks like a passionate and A sensitive artist is also like a doctor who takes advantage of the rest time to look from afar.

Mori Ogai's gaze shifted, staring lightly at the fading light, "It's really a grand sight that you'll never tire of seeing."

Knowing roughly that the leader had something to say, Chuya smoothed out the folds of his patience and waited quietly.

Mori Ogai was about to open his mouth, but his eyes were attracted by some strange things outside the window. The original rouge-like residual light image was cut and folded by a spreading black cloth and broken into strips.The leader of the port mafia suddenly paused, and he was slightly surprised, "What is that?"

"Aha?"

At first glance, the outside of the floor-to-ceiling windows was entangled in the air by a giant python crawling along the tree trunk. It seems that a giant of the sky is carefully wrapping the dead in black bandages from bottom to top to make a mummy lying in the pyramid.

And the headquarters building of the Mafia is exactly this unfortunate deceased.

However, relying on the eyesight of a supernatural being different from that of ordinary people, it is easy to discover that the black snake is actually being constructed by people's clods of soil and rocks, like a plant pulling out its own paper from the ground, these black stones Mixed with the soil in a unique proportion, adding and filling the uneven gaps, gradually extending the body of the entire building.

The people who built this outrageous building carefully left two vacant windows for each room. It seems that glass needs to be installed later. The color is quite ironic.

Circle after circle.

Until the bustling scene in Yokohama was firmly covered by the shroud, the two of them could only peep out from the gap, the light source was blocked, and the leader's room illuminated by the setting sun was also darkened, while covering The dark complexions of the two people who were already stunned.

Mori Ogai: "..."

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

At this time, they probably only have the same symbols in their hearts.

——? ? ?

Of course, these symbols also appeared in the staff dormitory of the detective agency thousands of meters away.

Tanizaki, who brought out the carefully prepared dessert from the refrigerator, was almost dumbfounded watching the news report suddenly inserted on the TV, and the porcelain plate in his hand almost fell to the ground.He was stunned for a while before he realized it, laughed hahaha, and shared interesting stories with his sister who was reading, "Quick, Naomi, isn't this the headquarters building of the Port Mafia? How dare someone do such a thing..."

Halfway through the laugh, Tanizaki suddenly thought of something and almost bit his own tongue.

"...Wait...it's not what I imagined, is it?" He and Tanizaki Naomi looked at each other, and they both saw the uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Dr. Yosano casually glanced at this open room when passing by, "What's the matter Tanizaki?"

Tanizaki pointed blankly at the screen of the TV news.

At the same time as Yosano Akiko thought of a certain person's instructions to them before leaving.

With Xie Ye: "..."
