Canary of the gods

"You said... to apply for the job?"

The Tanizaki brothers and sisters thought they had heard it wrong, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

Doppo Kunikida and Osamu Dazai, who were still noisy at first, turned their eyes to the gate in unison.

Osamu Dazai smiled when he saw the figure standing at the door.

He stretched out his hand and waved, "Ah~ Xiujun, this way!"

"Xiu?" Kunikida Doppo thought the name sounded familiar.

Isn't this... the guy that Osamu Dazai claimed to have helped a lot in the last haunted house drug incident?Is there really such a person?

The Tanizaki brothers and sisters looked back at Osamu Dazai, "So it's someone Mr. Dazai knows?"

Then they looked at a priest again, "So, the person you are looking for is Mr. Dazai?"

A temple repair nodded.

Junichiro Tanizaki led his sister back a little to the side, and gave way to a temple priest, "Please come in."

A temple priest was led to sit down on the sofa in the reception area, put down his satchel, and took off his mask.Osamu Dazai sat on his office chair, slid all the way to the side of a priest, tilted his head and said with a smile: "Good morning~ Xiu-kun~"

Ichijoji snorted, ignored him, took out his resume from his satchel, put it on the table, and pushed towards Kunikida who was sitting on the opposite sofa.

Kunikida Doppo picked up his resume, and quickly glanced at it, "One temple repair...is that right?"

"Ah."

Osamu Dazai also went to Kunikida Doppo, followed him to read, and found that it was nothing more than a standard application resume.Of course, Osamu Dazai will look for the bright spots in it, "Eh? Xiu-kun is about the same height as me, but he has lost a lot of weight. Is it because of his small frame? No wonder it doesn't feel wrong to dress up as a woman... Hmm!"

This time there was no need for a temple repair at all, Kunikida Doppo directly slapped Dazai Osamu's face, stepped on his office chair with one foot, and kicked hard——

The office chair with pulleys brought him away from the spot with a "wow", and hit the wall with a "crack".

"excuse me."

Kunikida Doppo pushed his glasses.

A temple cultivator calmly withdrew his gaze, as if he hadn't seen it.

Although he said he was here to apply for the job, he didn't seem worried at all about whether he would be admitted. He glanced at the office environment of the detective agency lightly, and then looked out the window with no interest.

Tanizaki Naomi poured him tea, but he didn't thank her, and he didn't even look up at her.

Kunikida Doppo was still reading his resume carefully, so he didn't notice these small details.However, the Tanizaki brothers and sisters who have been standing by the side have already had a preliminary impression of Ichijo Temple, and feel that he is not easy to get along with.

Osamu Dazai walked over, clutching his sore nose, complaining in a low voice, "My nose is almost broken..."

Kunikida Doppo ignored him at all.

Osamu Dazai didn't take it seriously, he patted Naomi Tanizaki on the shoulder, and explained a little for Shuichi Ichijo: "Xiu-kun is not very good at communication, don't worry about it."

"Huh? Oh..."

Tanizaki Naomi moved sideways, Dazai Osamu walked to the side of Ichiji, and very naturally let Iichiji move into the sofa, and sat down beside him.

"I thought you'd be here on the last day."

"..."

"Are you so angry when you decide to come? They all ran to the Pacific Ocean and smashed the island."

"..."

"Or, it's actually awkward, sorry?"

"To shut up!"

The Tanizaki brothers and sisters felt that something was wrong when they heard it.

Wait, go to the Pacific to smash the island?Is it the smashing island they thought? ? ?

"Honestly speaking, if you submit your resume, it's better to just return your memory to them." Osamu Dazai held his chin and turned his head to look at him, "Anyway, he will become a colleague in the future, won't he?"

Kunikida Doppo, who had just read a resume of the temple master, just heard this sentence, and was very speechless to Osamu Dazai's tone that he was sure that the former could join the detective agency, "What's the matter with returning the memory? Also, are you the president? "

The implication is, when did you decide to approve new members?

Osamu Dazai turned his head, looked at his partner innocently, avoided the first question, and only responded to the second question: "I have already reported it to the president."

Kunikida Doppo put a resume of temple repairs back on the table, rubbed his temples with a headache, "Reporting does not mean agreeing!"

"Eh? But the president didn't say he disagreed?"

The veins on Kunikida Doppo's forehead popped up, and he thumped, "Don't change the concept here!"

While they were clamoring, the door of the president's office suddenly opened from the inside, and the person they mentioned walked out.

"President!"

The members of the detective agency greeted the visitors respectfully, and even Doppo Kunikida and Osamu Dazai who were sitting on the sofa stood up.

A temple repairman was still sitting there peacefully and calmly.

Kunikida Doppo caught sight of it out of the corner of his eye, frowned, and murmured in his heart, thinking that this guy obviously came to the detective agency to apply for a job, but seeing that the president didn't even make a statement, isn't he too worried?Do you think that with Dazai Osamu's recommendation, he will definitely be able to join the detective agency?

Fukuzawa Yukichi didn't care, he walked to the place in front of Kunikida Doppo, and sat down opposite Ichijiu.

"I've heard about your situation from Dazai." He said seriously, his eyes were as sharp as a sharp knife just out of its scabbard, as if he could still hear the clang of metal colliding.

He stared at a temple cultivator with a serious expression, "As Dazai said, please return the unmodified memories of the members."

? !

Is there really something wrong with their memory?

Kunikida Doppo and the others looked at Fukuzawa Yukichi who said this in surprise, and then looked at Ji Yiyi.

A priest did not do so, but raised the corners of his mouth and said inexplicably, "Eh? You have already learned about me from Dazai, and you still dare to ask me?"

These words sounded harsh, and the members of the detective agency except Osamu Dazai frowned unanimously, looking at the rude Ichijiu unkindly.

Fukuzawa Yukichi didn't feel offended, and looked at Osamu Dazai standing aside with his usual expression, and signaled: "Come on."

Osamu Dazai scratched his hair, and said helplessly, "Xiu-kun, it's easy for everyone to misunderstand you..."

A temple repairman's face was full of indifference, and he almost said "so what".

Osamu Dazai smiled helplessly, "Then let me make the wish?"

A priest was very displeased with his statement, "What, do you think I'm Santa Claus or a wishing machine?"

"Oh, don't worry about such things~"

"Tsk."

Kunikida Doppo and the others were confused.

However, this kind of doubt did not last long. Soon, the memory in their minds was like a pencil drawing, which was erased bit by bit with an eraser, and replaced by another strange memory.

A temple repair not only restored their memories, but also the glass window that should have been broken with a big hole, and the marks on the mahogany desk that were pierced by keys.

Tanizaki Junichiro saw the broken window, and then glanced at the traces on the table, and the memories that had been altered before jumped out of his mind instantly.

Airdropped black boxes, shattered windows, keys that flew over his head... how can there be any crew members who deliver things?From beginning to end, there is no such person at all!

After recalling the whole process, Junichiro Tanizaki broke out in a cold sweat.

"This……"

Kunikida Doppo remembered more things than Tanizaki Junichiro.He was even surprised to find that it was not the first time he met Sixiu Yiyi, but the third time, no, it could even be said to be the fourth time!

The first time was in the bus spontaneous combustion incident, and the second time was in the painting curse incident.In fact, even in the last time the haunted house hides drugs, he saw from a distance the priest who was talking with Osamu Dazai at that time—the latter was dressed as a woman with a mask on his face, Kunikida Doppo didn’t recognize him.

So Kunikida Doppo was more frightened than other Tanizaki Junichiro.

"What is your supernatural ability..."

Kunikida Doppo's throat was a little dry, and he looked at a temple in doubt.

Counting from the bus spontaneous combustion incident, no fire damage, tampering with cognition and memory, unlucky curses, teleportation... Count how many supernatural effects there are?

Osamu Dazai walked to a sofa where the monk was sitting, put his hands on the latter's shoulders, bent down, and dropped a bomb with a smile: "In simple terms, Xiu Jun's ability is...'Super Wishing Machine'? "

"?" What kind of description is this?Ji Yijiu gave Osamu Dazai a dissatisfied look.

Osamu Dazai smoothed the hair very skillfully: "It's just for everyone to understand. If you don't like it, I won't talk about it in the future~"

"..."

No refutation is... really? !

Except for Fukuzawa Yukichi, who had known for a long time, who was still calm, everyone else looked at a temple with unconcealed surprise on their faces.

Since it can be called a "super wishing machine", that means... any wish can come true? ? ?How perverted is this ability? !

"but."

Suddenly, at a turning point, Osamu Dazai put away his previous foolish joke, and his tone became serious: "Xiu-kun's supernatural ability is limited."

"To be precise, this ability satisfies Xiujun's wish, which is what we usually understand as 'everything comes true'. However..."

Kunikida Doppo: "What?"

"This ability is hostile. 'It' is hostile to people who are kind to Xiu Jun."

After Dazai finished speaking, he gave an example. He looked at Naomi, "For example, didn't Naomi pour a cup of tea for Xiu-kun just now? If Xiu-kun said thank you to you at that time..."

Junichiro Tanizaki asked nervously, "What will happen?"

Tanizaki Naomi's throat tightened, and she couldn't help but hugged her brother's arm tightly.

"Hmm..." Osamu Dazai thought for a while, then turned to ask a priest: "What did you say before? The guy you thanked last time?"

One temple repair: "I was in a car accident when I went out, and I was lying in the hospital for three months."

Alas--!

"That's it~"

Osamu Dazai clapped his hands and looked back at the Tanizaki brothers and sisters who were trembling together with a smile, "Is there anything you don't understand?"

"No, no..."
