August.

The Yokohama Summer Festival, which was postponed due to the Shibusawa Tatsuhiko incident, was finally successfully held at the end of summer.The bustling street is full of men and women in bathrobes laughing and playing.

Atsushi Nakajima shuttled through the streets and alleys of Yokohama alone, looking for the trace of Osamu Dazai.

On the second day after the Shibusawa Tatsuhiko incident ended, Osamu Dazai asked Fukuzawa Yukichi for a long vacation for some reason and went to Italy.

Originally, Atsushi Nakajima thought that Osamu Dazai had figured it out and planned to find Satomi back.But later, when Osamu Dazai returned to the detective agency alone, Atsushi Nakajima realized that things were not as simple as he thought.

"Mr. Dazai, where is Mr. Shi?" 』

"What did you ask him to do?" 』

"Didn't you go to Italy to find him?" 』

"Who told you I was looking for him? 』

Atsushi Nakajima still remembers when he asked Osamu Dazai why he didn’t come back with him, the unsightly smile on Osamu Dazai’s face and the pair of iris eyes that stared at everything but nothing eye.

『Dun-kun, you need to know—there is no reason in this world that someone can’t live without leaving. 』

"All the valuable things that people desire are destined to be lost one day from the moment they are obtained.There is none of the things that one would pursue even at the expense of prolonging one's painful life. 』

Since then, Atsushi Nakajima has discovered that Osamu Dazai has changed.

It can't be said that it has changed... It's just that for a long time, Atsushi Nakajima never saw Osamu Dazai go into the water or try any new method of suicide.Going to work honestly every day and then returning home on time made Atsushi Nakajima feel very uncomfortable.

Even today, Osamu Dazai invites him to go to the summer festival at night for the first time.It's just that when we meet, I don't see him... still haven't answered his phone.

"Mr. Dazai, where are you?"

Atsushi Nakajima stood on the side of the road dejectedly, and took out his mobile phone again to call Osamu Dazai.

However, before he found Osamu Dazai's phone number from the address book, he received a text message from Osamu Dazai.

[Dun Jun~ I have something to do, so I will go back first, you have fun by yourself^_^]

"Isn't this funny!"

Looking at the smile at the end of the text message, Atsushi Nakajima felt that he might have been tricked by Osamu Dazai again.

Knowing that he will definitely look for him everywhere, she deliberately waited until now before sending him a text message...

"Mr. Dazai, you are really too much!"

Atsushi Nakajima dialed another call angrily.

Anyway, it's all here, and he plans to watch the fireworks with Quan Jinghua before going back.

And on the other side-

Osamu Dazai, who was supposed to go back, squatted alone in front of the goldfish fishing booth, "fighting wits and courage" with the goldfish swimming back and forth in the glass pool in front of him.

"Ahhh...why can't I get one of them..."

Osamu Dazai grabbed the edge of the glass pool, looked at the paper net in his hand that was broken by the twisting of the goldfish, and hung his head weakly.

"Could it be that I really don't have any talent for catching goldfish?"

Osamu Dazai fell into deep self-doubt.

Seeing this, the boss at the side smiled at Dazai Zhi in an embarrassing manner, and said, "That guest...how about I give you some?"

Osamu Dazai has been fishing for goldfish here since the afternoon, but he still didn't catch a single one at night, which made the owner of the goldfish stand a little embarrassed.

"It's not a way for you to fish like this..."

"Show me what you like, and I'll catch it for you with a fishing net."

"No."

Osamu Dazai raised his right hand, rejecting the boss's kindness.Then he stood up from the ground with a face of indifference, moved his slightly numb feet,

"A goldfish that is not caught with a paper net loses that meaning."

The boss nodded pretending to understand, and thought: Maybe this is the world of the rich...

"By the way, boss."

Osamu Dazai stopped moving his hands and feet, and suddenly asked, "How long is it before the fireworks display starts?"

The boss was stunned for a moment, and then took out his phone to check the time for Osamu Dazai.

"About half an hour."

"yes……"

Osamu Dazai threw the paper net bamboo handle into the bucket, and said goodbye to the owner of the goldfish stand while stretching his waist: "Then I'll go, boss. I'll disturb you all afternoon."

"How could it be..."

The boss hurriedly gave up on Dazai.

"see you next time."

"It's not coming."

Osamu Dazai put his hands in his pockets, humming a love song and walking slowly on the street, aimlessly following the flow of people.

"Hoo-boom!"

The opening fireworks of the fireworks show rose from the sea, just like the summer festival four years ago, lighting up the entire night sky.

Osamu Dazai stopped in front of a mask stand, carefully selected a white fox mask and put it on his head.

"Mom, I want some candy apples."

A little girl in a pink kimono took her mother's hand, pointed at the candy next to the mask stand, and said coquettishly, "Buy it for me, buy it for me..."

"I want the biggest and hottest one!"

Hearing this, Osamu Dazai followed the eyes of the mother and daughter.

In front of the candy stand, the white foam box mat is filled with crystal clear apple candies.The crimson color was the same as that person's eyes.

"Boss, I want one too!"

Osamu Dazai also squeezed in, rummaged through his pockets and bought a red apple candy with the last bit of money he had.

"Oh!"

Another huge firework soared into the sky and slowly unfolded in the night sky.

Dazai turned around.

Gorgeous fireworks criss-cross, like stars, and like fireflies.

However, there was nothing behind him.

"what the hell……"

Osamu Dazai narrowed his eyes, brought the candy apple in his hand to his mouth and took a small bite.

The scent of cheap syrup and apples instantly fills the mouth.No matter how long the sweet taste has passed, it is still difficult for Osamu Dazai to like it.

However, he threw away the candy apple and kept it in his hand.

"call out--"

"Oh!"

Another new firework was lit.

When the fireworks display officially started, Osamu Dazai walked into a [-]th-floor residential building near the park, and then used his superb lock-picking skills to pry open the anti-theft door on the roof.

This is where he and Sato saw fireworks for the first time.

Because he didn't want to go to the crowded square by the sea, he asked Satomi to lead him to jump here.

Now it seems that this decision is very wise no matter how long it has passed.

Dazai Osamu was thinking, while taking the apple candy, he walked to the place where he and Satomi had sat and sat down.

"This year's fireworks are also generous."

A huge hibiscus flower stretches slowly on the sea just like the summer festival four years ago.Gorgeous sparks poured down from the sky, like shooting stars across the night sky.

Probably in order to appease the people affected by Shibusawa Tatsuhiko, the government also released Sichidama this year, the largest single fireworks in the world.

"Want some candy apples?"

Osamu Dazai handed the candy apple that he took a bite out of to his side.

After a long time, he slowly put down his hand and put the candy apple on the empty ground.

"I went to Italy and met Giorno Giobana, the boss of the famous Italian gangster "Passionate". "

"He lent me the bug arrow, but it didn't work."

"You finally can't stand me anymore, lost..."

When Osamu Dazai said this, he raised his head slightly.

The sky is full of stars, and the fireworks are flickering.

"That's right... After all, I don't listen to you all the time. It's normal that you can't stand me."

"Remember what I said before?Don't do such a dangerous thing alone, even if you are sure! 』

"Is there nothing you want to explain to me?Don't tell me that you are walking on the street, and then accidentally smashed your face with your left foot and your right foot, I won't be fooled by you. 』

Osamu Dazai blinked, as if he could still see the angry look of the young man with his face folded.

"Do you hate me very much, miss..."

"I'm a person who is super afraid of pain, but I believe——Yi Shi's skill can definitely give me a happy death without any pain.So... If you really want to kill me and want me to execute you, then kill me. 』

"Take me away together, let me accompany you to bear the pain that makes you feel so painful. 』

"Hate me for forcing you to choose, hate me for making your life so painful..."

"That's why I walked so gracefully and without any remembrance..."

The noisy fireworks display is still going on.

But all of that has nothing to do with Osamu Dazai.

"You know... the seven years with you are like a dream to me."

"I have always known that the things I don't want to lose will leave you one day. I have already prepared for you to leave me one day. But... I still want to indulge in this water-like situation." The flower in the middle, the falsehood of the moon in the mirror."

The cool night breeze blew past with the breath of the sea, gently lifting Osamu Dazai's clothes and hair, as if sending some kind of invitation.

Osamu Dazai bent his knees and stood up from the ground, and patted the dust off his body twice.

"How about this, lost."

"Then let's make a choice, lost..."

"I used to force you to make a choice..."

"Do you want me to die with you, or you to live with me until I die. 』

"Then now, come and help me make the last choice."

Osamu Dazai slowly closed his eyes, and then opened his arms like a bird's wings.

"I have seen in the "Complete Self-X Manual" before that people who jump from buildings usually die because the internal organs of the human body are hit by a strong external force, causing the bones and internal organs to be shattered, resulting in death. So as long as the head hits the ground first, the You won't feel any pain..."

"You help me make a choice, Shi."

If he is lucky enough to survive, then he will wake up from this dream called Disqualification in the World.

If he unfortunately dies...

Then let him sleep forever in this unswerving dream!

With the disappearance of the four-foot jade, the highlight of the fireworks display, Osamu Dazai raised the corners of his mouth, leaned forward, and crossed the edge.

"call out--"

"Boom!"

Bright fireworks suddenly bloomed in the sky, lighting up the entire night sky like flying stars.

"Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

It seemed that someone let out a scream similar to an exclamation.

"Senior Satomi!!!"

In another world, Asta ran to the beach panting, looked at the man sitting on the reef, and asked, "What are you doing here? We're starting to set off fireworks! Don't you want to watch the fireworks?"

Seeing the words, Li turned his head to look at the member of his junior, and said with a smile, "I'm watching."

"look in?"

Asta looked over their heads suspiciously.

There are no stars in the dark night sky, let alone fireworks.

The place where they set off the fireworks is the exact opposite of where Satomi was.In other words, Satomi sat here and couldn't see the fireworks they set off behind.

"But there's nothing here."

Asta couldn't help asking.

"No, there is."

Satomi smiled at him, then jumped off the rock.

"right here."

Saying that, Satomi threw the apple he had been holding to Asta.

"Right here, there is a firework like a dream."

"Dream?"

Asta was once again confused by Satomi's words, so he asked a little foolishly: "What about now?"

"Is it still there now? Why can't I see it at all..."

"right now……"

Satomi raised his hand, pinched Asta's nose lightly, and said with a smile, "It's gone now."

"Because the dream has woken up."

As Satomi said, he waved his hand towards the other members of the Black Bull Regiment who followed Asta out to find him in the distance.

"Let's go, let's set off the fireworks."

Asta looked at the sky, then at the back of Satomi and his companion, and finally trotted to keep up with Satomi.

"Wait for me! Satomi-senpai!!!"

Overheard, Li stopped and looked sideways at Asta behind him and the apple he had just thrown to him.

He once had a dream like fireworks.

During the ten years of sleeping, he experienced a different life in his dream.Even after waking up, he will never forget it for a long time.

but--

"Senior Satomi, you're leaving too fast..."

Asta supported his knee with one hand, and returned the apple that Satomi lost to him.

"Your apple."

Satomi Misaki smiled at Asta, but didn't take the apple he handed back.

"this is for you."

"Eh? But this is the last one, if you give it to me, you will be gone..."

"It's okay, just buy it when you get to the town."

Satomi Sato reached out and rubbed Asta's hair, and said with a smile.

The sea breeze blowing from behind gently lifted the clothes of the two of them, making a loud noise.

Satomi lost his hands, and followed Asta to the other members of the black bull group who waved at them and urged them to come quickly.

This dream called disqualification in the world took him ten years.

And now-

wake up.

So he should also return to his own reality.

back to this...

The reality called Satomi Lost.
