Also today, after leaving the love hotel, the Gap Man and Axue first went to the store to buy a new set of clothes.

In front of the store counter, facing a dazzling array of products and enthusiastic shopping guides, the man with a bad mouth just covered his mouth with a mask, turned his face and did not speak.

Naturally, all the negotiation work was done by Ashe.

However, despite the rip man's silent and indifferent attitude, the female clerk at the clothing counter still casts her eyes at the rip man next to him.

"……Dont look at me."

Feeling the sight, he simply turned around and only left the back of his head for the clerk.

Axue, who is always in charge of singing bad faces, smiled and explained to the clerk: "Sorry, my partner is a little shy."

Axue pointed to the kimono on her body: "We attended a makeup party, and the suitcase containing the clothes was stolen. Now we can only buy a few clothes temporarily. I can't bear to wear so many clothes this season."

His expression was so realistic that although the shop assistant wondered that he didn't seem to be sweating at all, she nodded and said, "Ah, it's been hard work. Are you here to choose summer clothes?"

His tone was full of trust: "We don't have much research on fashion, can you please help us choose some suitable clothes? I want to dress cooler."

"Leave it to me, it's my pleasure."

After selecting and trying them on, the two settled the bill with satisfaction.

When the clerk was billing, Axue was not idle either.

He looked at his partner who had been quiet from the beginning to the end, put his hand on his shoulder naturally, and whispered in his ear: "Don't be so shy, Xiaobai. Look, the clerk seems to like you very much..."

"...There is no such thing."

The man with the gap pulled his mask. He didn't dare to speak loudly outside. He was very concerned about scaring others by accidentally revealing the wound on his face.

"Xiaobai's place is really stubborn. No one will pay attention at all. Even if they saw it, they would just think it was makeup."

The man with the gap suddenly turned his head, looked at the chattering A Xue beside him, and then—patted his cheek.

"Eh?" Unexpectedly being attacked suddenly, Ah Xue's eyes widened.

"Ash."

"Ok?"

"very noisy."

After speaking, he picked up the paper bag and the change he found and left first.

A Xue followed with a smile, and the duo of one black and one white just strolled on the street.

Their tall stature and outstanding appearance have attracted the attention of many people.

The man in a black cotton and linen trench coat covered his face with a black mask, and his slightly curly hair was randomly tied up with a rubber band.Black shirt, black jeans, and black Martin boots. Except for the red eyes, the body is only black.

Contrary to him, the white-haired young man next to him is wearing a cool printed white shirt with an ice blue feather woven casually on the outside. The mix-and-match style makes people feel that he is either an enthusiast from an underground LiveHouse or from sea water. The aggressive young man who couldn't stand the heat up came from the bathing place.

"Crack." The sound of a passerby's camera.

Someone is filming them.

At this time, Ah Xue also showed a very high demeanor and quality, but it would be even better if he was not too cooperative than the scissorhands, triumphantly posing for the photographer.

The man with the gap will suspect that he is not a snow girl, but a peacock who has become a spirit.

"Okay, Xiaobai, let's relax properly. By the way - what are your plans next? Regarding your 'that matter', have you figured out where to start?"

Ashe walked slowly and said: "I don't know if it's a good thing to ask your name from the population of Gang Hei. At least with the name, we can find more directions. Follow along , you will be able to find out all the relatives.”

"Why do you say...'I don't know if it's a good thing'?"

"It's weird after all, isn't it?" Ashue said, "It's weird, it's quite weird, it's unreasonable, it's unreasonable! You think, since you know Hong Kong and black people, don't you usually care about the people behind you? ? Will there be any fools who will attack you?"

The man with the gap shook his head: "Maybe, they don't know."

"Ha——Indeed, generally speaking, who would have thought that you have something to do with people from Hong Kong and Hong Kong... It's just that the grey-haired uncle was so surprised by your appearance last night, it seems that you don't have a deep relationship , or it has been a long time since I have contacted you, otherwise, how could you not even know the news that you are no longer alive?"

These are all reasonable guesses.

After finishing speaking, Axue smiled maliciously——

"What do you think that person will think when he learns that the boy he once cared for is still restless after death and has become a strange story?"

The man with the gap was not angry because of the thorns in his words, he just slowly raised his eyes to look at A Xue, and said frankly: "... I don't know."

"Oh?"

"Besides, that kind of thing is not important."

"Eh, really? Don't humans hate being forgotten?"

Not quite so, the Gapman thought.

He said: "The thoughts of the living are insignificant to me. Whether it is surprise or regret, it has nothing to do with me. The waves in their hearts will not drop any drop from my world. Between us is water and oil same incompatible existence.”

He spoke the truth calmly: "...After all, I am already dead."

(And now that I am no longer human, there seems to be no reason to have anything to do with them.)

Just considering that the Yukio next to him was a born monster, he probably couldn't understand this kind of emotion, so he didn't say this sentence.

This time he was no longer silent, but took the lead in saying: "Axue, I want... to find that plastic surgeon first."

"I agree, but do you know where he is?"

"I don't know." He said, "Let's do divination."

He doesn't mind that the success rate of divination is only half and half.

In fact, Jiuyuan has also tried to find out whether he can directly use divination to find the enemy of the man with the gap. However, the divination ability is not strong enough to this point, and the relevant divination can only be done on the basis of known information, so the success rate will be higher.

Hanako cooperated very well this time, and quickly gave a divination answer——

"The person you are looking for is related to Radium Bowl Street."

……

……

Simultaneous Armed Detective Agency

"...Are you late again?!" Kunikida Doppo's iconic lines symbolized that today's work was about to begin.

What answered him was Tanizaki's bitter smile: "Ah...Mr. Dazai said he has something to deal with."

Most of the employees of the Armed Detective Agency are relatively punctual and punctual, and Dazai is one of the exceptions.

The atmosphere in the society is free, and the president doesn't restrict the members too much. After all, for people like them, the real self-restraint does not come from the so-called social rules and regulations, but from personal will and common ideals. Things that seem too noble to ordinary people.

But this is not the reason why Kunikida tolerated Dazai's lateness.

Pacing back and forth in the office, Kunikida's mechanical behavior stopped when Dazai lazily pushed the door open, raised the paper bag in his hand and rubbed it on Kunikida's face with great fanfare.

Roaring like a gust of wind.

"Dazai—where did you go again—"

Covering his ears, Dazai said to the familiar voice, "Don't be angry, Kunikida-kun, you won't have work today anyway, I brought you a present. Quickly, take it apart and have a look—"

Kunikida took the paper bag and didn't open it, but asked, "You said you don't have a job today, Dazai...do you already know?"

"I know." Dazai said leisurely, "The search commission for the urban geek talkers has been cancelled, right?"

"Yes." Tanizaki looked at him in surprise, "Why would Mr. Dazai know?"

"Anyway, this... that... um... and then I'll know."

Dazai's light answer was like adding fuel to the fire.

Kunikida rubbed his forehead: "Isn't that the same as not explaining anything?"

"Huh? Do you want to explain from the very beginning?" Dazai waved his hand, and said in a relaxed tone: "I heard that the man with the gap had a big fight with the port mafia yesterday. Considering this, our commission is taken for granted. cancelled."

Tanizaki: "...I still don't quite understand why."

Kunikida's sensitivity in this aspect is higher than Tanizaki's. He said in a deep voice, "Because we have met the people from Port Mafia. If they are enemies but not friends, the people from Port Maifa will not lose face." Those who still choose not to fight back, let them fight, and the military and police don't need to care about it."

After finishing speaking, he changed the topic: "However, how did you know this news..."

"Well, that's right." Dazai said, "This can be regarded as an expression of the attitude of the military and police—"After catching that person, let your port Mafia deal with it, and we won't bother you." People in the government really like to put trouble Leave it to others. As for the information channel, keep it secret.”

Unable to refute, Kunikida had no choice but to say something nonchalant: "...be careful with your wording."

"It's true."

After listening to it, Tanizaki, as one of the people who had faced the man with the gap, was still curious about it.

"So what the hell is he..."

"Well~ who knows."

Dazai walked briskly to his seat, leaned against the back of the chair and hung up the earphones.

He was humming a song, but what was playing in the earphones was the recording just now.

I wanted to listen to the live broadcast on the way here, but I didn't expect to meet an "acquaintance", so I had to come back to listen to the recording now.

However, since Hong Kong and Black have already invited professionals, it seems that there is not much room for detective agencies to intervene.

With that in mind, he turned on the recording.

In the earphones, the first thing I heard was the sound of porcelain colliding.It was about the collision of the teacup and the teapot, followed by the short sound of water.The young man squinted his eyes slightly, imagining the appearance of the young man making tea on the other side of the bug in the morning sun.

Then there was the wrapping paper being torn apart, and there was a rustling noise as if a piece of plastic was being pulled.

Chew.

The sound of swallowing water.

The sound of turning the pages of the book in a hurry, rustling, rustling, this sound is a little impatient, as if flipping back and forth.

It can be heard that he is not calm at this time.As the instigator of throwing the stone into the still water, Dazai twirled his fingers with great interest, waiting for the next step.

The sound of stepping on the stairs sounded, it was the footsteps much lighter than adults.

A childish voice came from the earphone——

"What are you thinking? From a distance, it looks like this...absent-minded look." At first it was a tough tone, but the toughness was descending. When it came to the last word, it was no different from an ordinary boy's speech. Light and soft.

"It's nothing." Jiu Yuan sounded a bit reluctant, "I'm just thinking about what to have for lunch...Does Mr. Hua have any good suggestions?"

While he was talking, Dazai heard the sound of the paper bag again, and the boy started to eat, and replied while eating: "Liar. Jiuyuan is not very good at lying, were you worried about other things just now?"

"...I didn't." He still wanted to argue, but was interrupted by the boy first.

"Why did you keep it from me? Didn't you say you should not lie to me?" The quiet fire was burning, and he seemed to be holding back his temper.

"Ah... Are you angry about this?" Jiu Yuan said helplessly, "I'm really fine."

"—I said, I won't let Jiuyuan bear everything alone. Could it be that you want me to break my promise?"

The boy's immature voice was full of determination, like some kind of beacon standing on a rocky mountain that would not move despite the wind and rain.

Dazai listened with relish, people are always full of curiosity about things like secrets, curiosity is a tormenting instinct, and only more "knowing" can satisfy this torture.

(Looks like their relationship is even more interesting than I thought. Bro? It can't be such a banal and boring answer that they can't fool themselves. But it can make a child say that they want to "carry together "Yes, what is it?)

(Murder? Escape? Accomplice?)

Strange words and conjectures swirl in his mind, he is not surprised by any answer, and is equally interested in any answer.

"I can't hide it from you..." After a brief silence, Jiu Yuan seemed to sip his tea, trying to calm himself down a bit.

"I'm just a little worried about whether those guys will find you." Jiuyuan was still worried, and his voice was unconsciously melancholy, "... I heard that they are wandering around here, and I'm worried that they may come at any time."

"So you're worrying about this—don't worry, it'll be all right."

The boy seemed to be stepping on a stool and hit his predecessor on the forehead, Dazai heard Jiu Yuan groaning "Ah, it hurts" and complaining "Who did you learn how to hit the forehead...".

Immediately afterwards, the boy said, "Even if we are found, I will be the only one who will be taken back. Although I am very unwilling, there is no other way."

It was so desolate that it seemed that he had thought of this ending long ago.

Even he thought it was a matter of time.

"I'm sorry, I clearly made an agreement with you not to let you go back to that person again..." Jiu Yuan bravely said, "It's really useless for me to say so many frustrating words before I was found. However, I'll do my best to hide you."

Jiuyuan's voice gradually calmed down, and he said slowly: "After all, you are my... hiss!"

Just about to hear the key point, there was the sound of water from the other end.And the voice of the boy saying "Ahh idiot! Did you get burned!" and the voice of "Idiot, go run some cold water!"Immediately afterwards, the boy hissed and breathed in, while trying to comfort the boy, he said, "It's okay, there's scald medicine upstairs."

After a period of chaos, it became quiet.

The two must have gone upstairs to treat the burns.

Dazai, who put down his earphones, was walking on the street at the moment, shaking the paper bag in his hand——

"Jiuyuan-kun only finished half of what he said, what a pity..."

What is he trying to say?

"...It feels like watching a TV series at a critical moment when an advertisement suddenly breaks in."

It's a bit frustrating.

The author has something to say:

Jiuyuan: You didn't buy VIP, you can only see here.

By the way, collect a group name for the handsome duo.
