Luo Shengmeng has no feelings today

"... Robbery?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke stared at the young man in front of him, his dark and calm eyes stared directly at the other party into panic, especially the calm tone of voice, which was almost as clear as piercing through the eardrums, which made the young man's heart restless Beats like a drum.

The young man—— was kicked out of the orphanage, had no money and no place to live, starved for several days, and was forced to go to a dead end to rob Atsushi Nakajima swallowed his saliva.

"Without a weapon, even if it's just a small knife, judging by your actions, you don't have any combat experience, you can't stand still, and your physical strength is almost exhausted... You use this state to rob?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke looked at the boy in front of him delicately.

Strange to say, it seems to be a strange resonance.

Akutagawa felt a similar aura from this down-and-out person.

To be precise, it is the kind of aura that comes from the bottom of society, but they are completely different, unlike the fierce Akutagawa Ryunosuke, the performance of this person in front of him can almost be called pure, so pure that he is in a place like a slum Almost impossible to survive.

At least, it is absolutely impossible for Akutagawa Ryunosuke to do such a stupid behavior.

"Do you think it's easier to strike next?" Akutagawa tilted his head calmly thinking, with no expression on his face, "Then, it seems that your vision for choosing targets is not very good."

"Yes, I'm sorry." For some reason, he subconsciously apologized under such gazes, and Atsushi Nakajima stood there in a daze, as if his body stiffened in front of an unkind elder.

Why!Obviously the person opposite "looks" about the same age as him.

Before Atsushi Nakajima could come up with something, the silver-haired boy's stomach growled exaggeratedly.

Akutagawa: "..."

The silver-haired boy suddenly lowered his head as if he had been hit, his eyes were distracted, and he muttered to himself in a low voice: "Ah, I'm just too hungry... It's been several days since I was kicked out of the orphanage and wandered around. I didn’t even eat anything, and I made up my mind that no matter who passes by here, I must attack him, snatch everything and have a good meal, but, sure enough... I still can’t do it?”

The frustrated teenager stood there looking a little desperate.

For some reason, he didn't dare to touch the black-haired, sickly and slender man in front of him.

——If you do it, bad things will definitely happen.

Atsushi Nakajima's animal-like intuition was ringing.

What's more...he couldn't do it either.

The person in front of him looked in very bad shape.

The skin was basically bloodless, and the exposed wrists were too slender, much thinner than those who came out of this orphanage.

If you attack, will you hurt the opponent?

Worried and essentially a gentle teenage boy, Atsushi Nakajima keeps his hands tied.

"Orphanage? I see...but if you're just hungry, there are many solutions, right?" Akutagawa frowned slightly as he looked at his dejected expression: "If you want to live, don't Putting on such a cowardly face."

"If you don't have the ability to rob, then use your harmless appearance to steal. At worst, you will be beaten up, or weeds by the river, fish in the water, expired boxed lunches discarded by the back door of the convenience store, melons and fruits grown in other people's fields... …If you want to live, aren’t there many ways?”

"...Huh?" Atsushi Nakajima, a real domestic cub who grew up in an orphanage since he was a child, was abused and often hungry, but never lived outside alone, looked blankly at the person in front of him.

"What's the 'ahh' response, are you an idiot?"

"Why don't you look for food before your physical strength is exhausted, but wait until you are so hungry that your hands and feet are weak before you act?"

Akutagawa frowned even tighter. Looking at Atsushi Nakajima's dull appearance, he couldn't help but say, "Even the wild dogs on the side of the road know how to find their next meal before their energy is exhausted. Since you have decided to rob— —Although the vision of choosing the target is astonishingly bad, why did you stop? Could it be that someone will hand over the property to you if you pretend to shout this softly? "

"Or, you still want to wait for good luck to come to you?"

Seems to be hated by strangers.

Atsushi Nakajima is keenly aware of the other party's emotions, because he was excluded from the orphanage and grew up, he is unexpectedly good at observing words and expressions.

What the other party said was not wrong, and Atsushi Nakajima knew this very well.No matter what, he had to live on, even if he wanted to rob for it. That's how he forced himself to make up his mind just now.

But in the end, he still couldn't do it. He didn't have the courage to attack others, even if he was hungry and felt that he was going to die soon.

Akutagawa really doesn't like the other party.

If it was a boy from an ordinary slum, Ryunosuke Akutagawa would probably ignore it. If he wanted to provoke him without knowing his life, he would simply knock him unconscious, leave him by the side of the road, and then leave.

——The premise is that it is a boy who conforms to common sense and comes from the bottom of society.

Rather than the appearance of this guy in front of him, who is too clean, and even under the premise that he can't protect himself, he still holds the principle of being too gentle.

Such cleanliness was too out of place for them who crawled out from the bottom.

After Akutagawa finished speaking, he withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention to the other party. He became calm very quickly. After all, although the young man in front of him made Akutagawa feel a little strange, he was still just a passerby who met by chance.

Meet by chance, pass by, and basically never see each other again.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke turned around without hesitation, and started to leave.

Then Kannosuke, who was lying on his shoulder, patted his face with his small paw.

Akutagawa looked at his cat, who tilted his head and looked at each other without avoiding it.

"Meow~"

"Kinnosuke, that's for Gin and the others."

The cat patted Akutagawa's face again, and let out another soft cry.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke sighed helplessly, and turned around again with some reluctance: "Hey, that brat."

The silver-haired boy looked over blankly, then frantically caught a box of snacks thrown by Akutagawa.

Delicate, fresh dim sum.

"No one cares about the waste on Radium Bowl Street." The black-haired and black-eyed young man said calmly as before: "Don't mess with anyone, if you pick up the waste and sell it, at least you can get the next meal." If you have a little better money, go find a job near the intersection."

"At this age, it's not difficult to find a part-time job. Temporary workers in shops in the slums don't need any identification certificates. Of course, the possibility of being targeted by others will be higher... How to do it is up to you. You decide."

Atsushi Nakajima held the box of snacks, his special purple-gold eyes widened slightly, and his face was full of flattery.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Dun looked at Dim Sum, then raised his head to look at Akutagawa's face, and suddenly showed a very pure and grateful smile, like a small domestic animal being fed, he easily let go of his guard, and he turned to the front The young man bowed ninety degrees and shouted from the bottom of his heart: "I am Atsushi Nakajima, thank you very much for your help!"

"After I get rid of the tiger and won't cause trouble to others, I will definitely visit the place you mentioned, sir."

Akutagawa caught an uncommon noun: "...tiger?"

"Eh?...No, it's nothing!" Atsushi Nakajima covered his mouth, looking annoyed that he had spoken out. He froze for a while, then shook his head hard, and bowed with a snack in his arms. Hastily turned and ran:

"I'm sorry!! I've bothered you. Thank you very much for your help. If there is a place for me in the future, I will definitely do my best to help. Well, I'm leaving first, and then, goodbye!"

"..."

It's not necessarily exhausting.

Akutagawa looked at the silver-haired boy who was staggering from behind, but his speed was not slow at all, and thought that the other party might be very suitable for stealing things, at least he ran very fast.

Treating being robbed—if this could really be called robbing—as an insignificant episode on the way home, Akutagawa Ryunosuke carried the remaining snacks and continued walking along the river to his home.

It's only a few minutes before I go out for a hundred meters.

The two legs standing straight on the water surface slowly floated down from the upper reaches.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke and Sanhuamao Kananosuke calmly looked at the two legs that were slowly flowing away, without stopping their pace and without any emotional changes.

It wasn't long after those legs drifted away along the water.

thump--

Lifting his head abruptly from the water, the man who had drifted away along the river thumped in the water and swam back in the opposite direction.

"What a coincidence, Akutagawa-sensei, good afternoon—"

With a drawn-out voice and always a coquettish tone, the wet Dazai Osamu was floating with his head on the water, but strangely kept moving at the same speed as Akutagawa walking along the river.

"Good afternoon, Dazai-kun."

"Is Akutagawa-sensei going home?"

"Yes." Akutagawa nodded.

"It's great, I'm different." Osamu Dazai floated in the water and complained: "I still have to deal with the military's entrustment, and I have to work overtime at night without peace."

"Consignment? Are you alone?"

Akutagawa asked back with uncertainty, Osamu Dazai has extraordinary wisdom, but the opposite is his combat ability. Although the nullification ability is easy to use, attacks other than abilities will still pose a threat to him. For example, firearms.

It stands to reason that Dazai would not complete the commission alone, unless the work is not dangerous, but since it is from the [military], it cannot be an ordinary commission.

Sure enough, Dazai happily replied: "There is also Oda Saku with me!"

As he spoke, he looked around, blinked his kite-colored eyes, and sighed innocently: "But he got lost."

No matter how you look at it, you got lost.

Kananosuke complained in his heart, lying on Akutagawa's shoulder disinterestedly.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke didn't want to chat with the other party, and it was almost time to turn the corner. The young man with black hair and black eyes said goodbye politely, and stepped up the steps from the river to the street without hesitation.

It was the sound of dripping water.

Osamu Dazai shook his head, twisted his windbreaker, and walked from the river to the bank.

He trotted to Akutagawa Ryunosuke's side, wet the ground along the way, followed closely with a smile on his face.

"Please don't touch me, Dazai, your whole body is wet." Akutagawa moved a little away.

"Ms. Akutagawa really doesn't like water." Dazai said regretfully, "Originally, I thought that after Mr. Akutagawa got tired of life, I would invite you to join me in the water and commit suicide."

"Ow—"

Rashomon Cat jumped out ferociously when he heard the words, stepped on Akutagawa's other shoulder, and breathed out at Osamu Dazai.

--asshole!Don't spoil my little master!

Osamu Dazai didn't realize he was intimidated at all, and even approached happily to say hello.

"Ah, Rashomon-kun, long time no see!"

Rashomon roared back.

"Don't you still have a job?"

Seeing that one person with one supernatural power was about to make trouble again, Akutagawa helplessly reached out and pressed the Rashomon on his shoulder, letting his supernatural power go back.This is the street, if someone sees it, it will be troublesome.

"I'm still investigating the trace." Osamu Dazai said, "I probably won't find it today, and I'm so hungry, and now I have to cook for myself when I get home. It's too much trouble, Mr. Akutagawa will take me in?"

"It doesn't matter if you have a meal."

Akutagawa looked at the wet young man, "But you don't have dessert after dinner."

Saying so, Akutagawa held up the bag in his hand, which contained a pile of desserts.

His own share is also gone - he just lost it to that silver-haired boy named Nakajima.

"It's okay!" Osamu Dazai responded very quickly, "By the way, can you lend me a bath? Also, can Mr. Akutagawa lend me a set of your clothes?"

"Any clothes are fine, I can't stay wet all the time."

Akutagawa hesitated for a while: "Although I don't care about it, Dazai-kun."

"Yes!"

"The size of the clothes below is not suitable for you, your height... Yuuji's may be more—"

"No, as long as Akutagawa-sensei's clothes are enough!" Dazai interrupted Akutagawa's words neatly: "It doesn't matter if it's shorter!"

"...?"

……

Akutagawa house.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke went out for a walk, then picked up a troublesome ghost and went home.

Gin stared at Osamu Dazai's face with a dangerous smile.

Facts have proved that Akutagawa's promise to lend his clothes does not count. In terms of daily life, Yin has more say.

"No, Dazai-san, brother's clothes don't suit you."

The girl stuffed back the clothes her brother took out, and then randomly took a set from another brother's room and handed it to Dazai, "Take this set to take a bath, huh? Does Dazai-san think there is something wrong with this expression?"

Akutagawa Gin, who was still holding a knife in his hand, came out of the kitchen and opened the door with a gentle smile.

Dazai reluctantly took the clothes and went into the bathroom.

Two seconds later, the head popped out.

"By the way, which bottle of body wash does Akutagawa-sensei use?"

silver:"……"

Silver: "The blue bottle on the far side in the lower left corner."

"Ok!"

Osamu Dazai retreated into the bathroom, and then took the other bottle that was farthest in the opposite corner.

dinner time.

An exquisite meal was placed on the table for each person. Today, Rin and Yin are the cooks. The two of them are quite good at cooking, especially Rin, who is exceptionally talented in this area.

The Akutagawa family is still getting together lively, very few families have as many people as the Akutagawa family.

"Man-eating tiger?"

Akutagawa put a piece of teriyaki yellowtail into his mouth, and looked at the young man beside him.

"Yes, man-eating tiger."

Just after taking a shower, Osamu Dazai, who smelled like the same shampoo as Akutagawa-sensei, was chewing his food with florets all over his body. He squinted his eyes like a satisfied cat, and said inarticulately:

"A commission from the military. There have been rumors about a man-eating tiger in Yokohama recently. However, although it is called a man-eating tiger, there is no evidence of cannibalism. Instead, it is making trouble, eating crops in the field, and destroying public facilities. There is a lot of evidence."

"The tiger seems to have come to us recently. In order to solve this incident as soon as possible, the military has entrusted us with an armed detective agency... Although it seems urgent, the testimony given by the witnesses is really vague. It might not be that easy to find."

"Eh? Dazai-san, is it okay to just say that?" Sayaka, who works part-time at a detective agency, asked hesitantly.

"It's okay, it's okay." Dazai waved his hands with a relaxed face: "This time it's not a commission that needs to be kept secret. You can find out if you go outside and inquire about it. There are quite a few witnesses."

"Tigers... Are there tigers in the city?" Xin also took a bite of his meal, thought about the situation he faced with tigers, and then shuddered silently: "It is still very dangerous, everyone, try your best when you go out." be careful."

"That's what he said."

As a topic of small talk during cooking, no one thinks too much.

Instead, Akutagawa Ryunosuke was stunned, and stopped his chopsticks slightly.

Dazai was keenly aware of this, blinked his eyes, and leaned over: "What's wrong? Mr. Akutagawa?"

"You just said... a tiger?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke thought quickly based on his experience, and then seemed to come to a rather unexpected conclusion:

"Ah, next day...it seems that I met someone related to that tiger."

Relevant is actually more convincing than the word suggests.

After all, Akutagawa Ryunosuke thought: The boy he met this afternoon said a sentence like [after I get rid of the tiger and won't cause trouble to others].

Now that the word [get rid of] is used.

Sure enough...is that so?
