Are you with Dazai today?

"Mr. Ango stopped talking, is there any problem with what I said?"

Shocked by Shiinagawa's question, Ango Sakaguchi came back to his senses, and the words 'Absolutely something is wrong! ' After the voice was suppressed, he clutched his stomach and replied weakly.

"No, if both of you think there is nothing wrong with this relationship, I have nothing to say. If the parties don't care, I will be puzzled by what I say."

Damn it, give me some strength, my stomach!Ango Sakaguchi was very melancholy, and decided to be wary of Shiinagawa's calls in his future life. What a ghost, Shiinagawa called him twice, and every time Shiinagawa called him, it made his bad stomach worse.

"That...thank you?"

Shiinagawa here is completely unaware that he was memorized by Ango Sakaguchi.

"you are welcome."

"Is there no problem with Mr. Ango? It sounds like you are not in a good condition. Pay attention to your body."

Whose fault do you think this is? !Ango Sakaguchi roared in his heart.

"I'll pay attention."

Ango Sakaguchi, who hung up the phone, glanced at the hand-made coffee, and resolutely pushed it aside. He slowly fumbled for the milk that had been in the refrigerator since he bought it two months ago, and then picked it up from the refrigerator. A brand new milk pot was pulled out from the locker.

He turned on a small fire, put the milk pot on the fire and watched it bubbling and bubbling with no expression on his face.

Ah - sleep after drinking milk, Ango Sakaguchi made such a declaration of brain-dead abandonment.

And Shiinagawa, who finished the phone call with Ango Sakaguchi, couldn't resonate with Ango Sakaguchi's heart-stuck feeling at all. He just deepened the fact that Mr. Ango is a reliable and trustworthy good person.

If the favorability value can be expressed numerically, you can see Shiinagawa's favorability for Ango Sakaguchi increasing one after another.

But to be honest, the higher the favorability does not mean the better. It is really hard work to be liked by Shiinagawa. If you don’t have a strong nerve, you will definitely not be able to stand his unreasonable but self-contained logic. Bar.

Coincidentally, just after Shiinagawa hung up the phone, another call came, and it was a familiar special ringtone. Shiinagawa didn't hesitate as much as he did when he answered Dazai Osamu's call last time, and he pressed the connect button.

"Hello—hello—this is Crab Killer No. [-], is the communication good?"

"Hmm... um... Then, is Crab Killer No. [-] over here? The signal is good."

The other side burst out laughing.

"Shiina's connection is too bad. Just add one or something after my serial number. You have to think about the code name yourself."

"I understand teacher, I will work harder next time."

"Yeah, I'm very pleased to have such a hard-working child teacher."

Shiinagawa glanced at the time on the phone, it was so strange, logically speaking, there would be no call from Osamu Dazai at this time.

"Is there something wrong with the teacher calling?"

"Actually, Shiina-san, teacher, I am now facing the biggest crisis in history!"

Putting his ear to the phone, Shiinagawa faintly heard the sound of a dog barking from the phone.

"Now I was chased by a dog and climbed up a tree, and the other party was waiting under the tree relentlessly, and now there is no way to leave, Dazai-sensei, maybe I will stay on the tree for three days and three nights until I am hungry Death, woohoo, this kind of death sounds very painful."

Shiinagawa: ...

Perhaps at this time, if another person comes to listen to it, it is time to think about which sentence to start complaining about.But it's a pity that Shiinagawa doesn't have the so-called nerve to complain, so he can't reach the point of complaining at all.

"That's really bad, let's call your subordinates first."

"Eh?"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

The other side was silent for a while and then spoke.

"Does Shiina think I'm the kind of headstrong boss who would trouble his subordinates to come over because of such a trivial matter?"

ah don't you?Although Shiinagawa thought so, he didn't say it, so he tried to give Osamu Dazai another suggestion.

"The Central Plains..."

"Rejected, is Shiina provoking me? If you let the dwarf see this side, you might as well starve to death in a tree."

"Hmm, what should I do then?"

"Tsk, now I don't know whether Shiina really doesn't understand or is just pretending to be stupid."

Shiinagawa:?

"Isn't there someone who can save me, who is far away in the sky and right in front of me."

After thinking carefully, Shiinagawa felt that he understood what Osamu Dazai meant.

"I understand, now go to Sakunosuke--"

"no!"

Shiinagawa put a question mark on his head again.

"Isn't it?"

Osamu Dazai gave up, if he continued to beat around the bush, Shiinagawa might not be able to get his idea in another two hours.

hateful!

"Now, here, Mr. Shiinagawa, an unemployed vagrant who is very free and has no stable job, isn't he the most suitable candidate?!"

Shiinagawa subconsciously glanced at the shackles on his hands, because he had agreed with Osamu Dazai that he would never go out, so Shiinagawa didn't even think about the possibility of helping him himself.

"Is it okay to go out?"

"Uh-uh-it doesn't matter, because it's Shiina, and I'm almost tired of this, so I don't want to do it anymore."

"You're like this again..."

Saying such capricious words again, whether it was an agreement on the spur of the moment, or breaking the agreement due to sudden boredom, if someone else did such a thing to him, he would have to be prepared for a slight fracture.

"Angry?"

"No, because the target is Dazai, I'm not angry yet. If you convert it into a numerical value, I have accumulated 30.00% of the anger just now. If you let me increase by 30.00%, I will be angry."

"That's great~ I just like you, Shiina."

Shiinagawa frowned slightly, showing disapproval, and then made a threat that was not a threat at all in Dazai Osamu's opinion.

"Well, even if it's Dazai, I'll still be angry when I should be angry...Really, don't laugh!"

Shiinagawa made a threat that even a child would not be afraid of, while exerting force on his hand with a very honest body, and abruptly broke the iron chain that locked him.

So for Shiinagawa, it doesn't matter whether there is a chain or not. It's like a prisoner who has the key to unlock the lock in his hand. As long as he wants to, he can sit right away when he leaves.

"Place?"

Dazai Osamu over there was not as flustered as described on the phone at all, he even hummed a song in a good mood.

"It's the one that tried to hang itself from a tree for the first time after meeting Shiina."

There was a moment of silence over there, and he opened his mouth as if suddenly remembering.

"Sure enough, give me some hints, the specific address is—"

"No, because I already know where it is."

Speaking of that tree, it really is the one not far from the lake. Judging by the current speed, it can be reached in less than 10 minutes.

"That's right... that's right, as expected of Shiina, it's amazing."

"Er - thanks?"

"thank you……"

I don't know if it was Shiinagawa's illusion, but the other person seemed to chuckle lightly, and then said something with a volume that seemed to be whispering.

"you are welcome."

After actually arriving at the destination, Shiinagawa silently looked at the 'scary and hateful dog' that kept barking under the tree.

A little Teddy, who looked like a cub, wagged its tail and called Osamu Dazai who was nesting in the tree.

Shiinagawa made a gesture, and this little Teddy seemed to be just past his ankles, and the teeth of a puppy at this age haven't grown well yet, so even if it bites, it doesn't hurt.

So, Dazai, how on earth did you get chased up a tree by such a puppy?

Shiinagawa looked at Osamu Dazai with a complicated mood. Although he had a complicated mood, he still had to do what he had to do. He picked up the puppy. It was impossible for a puppy to break free from Shiinagawa's hand, and because of the angle at which he held it, Even if it wanted to bite Shiinagawa, it couldn't bite.

But this dog didn't mean to bite Shiinagawa. It didn't have the viciousness just now. Instead, it pulled its ears up as if it was being strangled by the throat of fate. It looked like a bunch of cowards.

With smooth fur and a new-looking pink bow around its neck, the dog looks like a domestic dog.

Ah, if I read correctly when I picked it up just now, this dog seems to be a male dog, right?

"Sure enough, send it to the police station."

Shiinagawa muttered to himself, then he put down the dog and looked at Osamu Dazai on the tree, and then he opened his arms.

"I'll catch you well, so it's okay, just jump off."

"Really?"

"real."

"Absolutely will catch it?"

"Well, absolutely."

Then Osamu Dazai jumped down from the tree just like that, but the angle of the jump was a bit off, and he didn't jump into Shiinagawa's arms, and he didn't know whether it was unintentional or intentional. In short, don't guess what Osamu Dazai was thinking.

But fortunately, our player Shiinagawa has top-notch physical and psychological qualities. Even if his partner accidentally (tentatively) makes a mistake, player Shiinagawa can still catch Osamu Dazai with his excellent reflexes and dynamic vision. .

Like how they used to play the wheelchair game of jumping from roof to roof, like when Osamu Dazai jumped off the roof of the No. [-] building at night, like... like now.

Every time Shiinagawa can accurately catch Osamu Dazai.

However, what spoiled the atmosphere a little bit was that the barking sound that subsided after Osamu Dazai jumped down was remembered again, and he didn't know what Osamu Dazai had done to fill up the hatred value of a dog.

Osamu Dazai hid behind Shiinagawa and made a face at the little Teddy. The Teddy wanted to rush over but was afraid of Shiinagawa standing in front of Osamu Dazai, so he shyly dared not come over, and could only let out a cry in his throat. A threatening roar.

Seeing this scene, Shiinagawa wanted to sigh, how old is he, why are you still so childish, why are you still fighting with a dog, Dazai, are you childish?

The author has something to say: Osamu Dazai: Not childish

The speed of life and death is over (paralyzed)
