Because of Ranpo's sudden joining, the rest of the people were surprised and chose to keep up. No matter what the reason is, if even Mr. Ranpo is interested, then the other party must have something special.

In this regard, although Kunikida felt that it was a bit strange and offensive for a group of people to appear together, but since he didn't emphasize that he should meet alone, and he said he wanted to ask about Osamu Dazai, it shouldn't matter.

In the elevator, Kunikida couldn't help asking: "Mr. Ranpo, why are you going to meet this person?"

"I'll see you if you want to. I'm just a little hungry. It's not bad to go downstairs to have a crepe." Luanbu said, "Besides these trivial things, why don't you care about why your partner hasn't been sleeping for the past three days?" Didn't come to work."

"……why?"

"Didn't he tell you?" Luanbu asked back.

The corner of Kunikida's mouth twitched: "...he said he was dying, let me save him."

Luan Bu suddenly fell silent, and after a while, he said "oh": "That may be the literal meaning."

Kunikida: "???"

Hearing this, Yosano Akiko raised her eyebrows and became thoughtful.

Tanizaki Naomi whispered into Tanizaki Junichiro's ear, "Brother, what kind of charades are Ranpo-san and Kunikida-san playing?"

"……I do not know either."

……

No matter how confused, the veil of mystery is about to be lifted, and the answer is about to be revealed. Kunikida waited patiently for the elevator to reach the first floor.

It was afternoon tea time, and even though it was a weekday, the nostalgic coffee shop had nearly [-]% occupancy rate, and at first glance, there was no suspicious candidate who was alone.

Out of politeness, Kunikida was about to call to inquire, when he saw the middle-aged female owner of the coffee shop leaning out from behind the bar, she was already familiar with the people from the detective agency upstairs, "Kunikida, the customer is in the innermost card seat waiting for you."

"...Okay, thank you, has he ordered? If not, have a cup of black tea like me."

"I ordered caramel macchiato, by the way, he is a rare handsome guy." The boss said with a smile.

"Auntie, I want a crepe and a cup of mocha~" Ranpo said.

Yosano Akiko: "Hojicha, thank you."

Naomi Tanizaki: "My brother and I want sesame balls and passion fruit tea~"

A group of melon-eating people who followed happily finished their afternoon tea, and walked in behind Kunikida, turned around a pillar, and saw a tall man in dark casual clothes and round sunglasses sitting Then, seeing them coming over, they waved.

"Here~"

For some reason, Kunikida paused when his line of sight touched the other person, as if his body had spontaneously received a signal that would warn of a certain disaster, and a subtle feeling rose in his heart inexplicably.

He didn't have this kind of feeling before, until he met Osamu Dazai, a depraved and uncertain bastard with a hole in his head, who built happiness on the pain of others, and forcibly destroyed it.

Kunikida even felt that it would not be long before Osamu Dazai appeared within his range of perception, his body would produce a specific stress response.

But now... it should be an illusion, or a chain reaction?After all, this person is related to Osamu Dazai.

"Wow, what a handsome guy!" Tanizaki Naomi exclaimed.

"Naomi..."

"It's okay, I'm just evaluating objectively, the only one I like is my brother~"

Tanizaki Junichiro: "..." I just want you to keep your voice down.

But indeed, the man in front of him has a very outstanding appearance, especially those blue eyes half hidden behind the sunglasses, which are really eye-catching... Eh, blue eyes? !

Tanizaki Junichiro froze suddenly, his eyes widened slightly, and his eyes fell on his silver-white hair again.

Could this person be...!

It was the first time for the two parties to meet each other, so it was inevitable that they would look at each other. Gojo Satoru passed by the people in the detective agency one by one, and when he saw Junichiro Kamitanizaki's shocked eyes, he asked, "Are you all colleagues of Dazai?"

"Yes." Kunikida briefly introduced.

"This..." Gojo Satoru scratched his hair, "I wasn't prepared, am I being rude?"

faux pas

Kunikida didn't understand, but still said, "It's okay, don't worry too much, they are mainly here for afternoon tea, but I didn't have time to tell you in advance, if you feel offended, we can change the place."

The booth space was limited, and while talking, Ranpo and Yosano Akiko had already sat down in the next seat, and the Tanizaki brothers and sisters also sat down.

"That's not true," Gojo Satoru said. If he hadn't taken Osamu Dazai into account, he wouldn't be a person who would consider other people's feelings at all, so he didn't care about the few people at the next table who were listening to their conversations, and said directly, "It's like I said on the phone, I have a few questions about Dazai and I want to ask you, I hope you can answer me truthfully."

His tone was so taken for granted that Kunikida was so confident that he was stunned for a moment, "This gentleman... I don't know who you are yet."

"Huh? Don't you know me?"

Kunikida: "..." Should I know you? !

Seeing that Kunikida really looked like he didn't know him, Gojo Satoru couldn't help muttering in his heart, wondering what Dazai was doing, he had been working for almost a month, and he didn't introduce him to his colleagues? !Could it be that he secretly took off the ring to hide the fact that he was married, and then wanted to experience something different while he was away? !

It's not that Wujo Wujo's brain is too open, and it's not that he doesn't trust Osamu Dazai, but that all kinds of clues have gathered together, which makes him have to think more.

Coincidentally, as soon as he got off the plane three days ago and turned on his mobile phone, he received a spam promotion that started with "The husband is on a business trip and the wife is alone in the boudoir, what happened..." Naturally, Gojo Satoru didn't take it too seriously at the time On the Internet, it was funny to think that the previous sentence actually matched the close attitude between him and Osamu Dazai, but his family Dazai is very good, and he chats on the line and has a video call once a day.

Hmm... that's not accurate, because Dazai Osamu suddenly lost contact five days ago, but the location is still in Yokohama, and Gojo Satoru didn't let the students go to see what was going on, so Dazai Osamu told him by email at night Said that the phone was lost, and I will make it up later, anyway, he will be back soon, so I won't contact him for a few days, and he has to focus on clearing a game.

Gojo Satoru felt that this reason was simply unreasonable. Why did he not contact him when he was coming back soon? !Can't use a computer without a mobile phone? !Is the game important to him? !

He was so angry that he directly left the last tedious and troublesome finishing work-whoever likes to do it, returned to Japan three days in advance, and then followed the location to find Osamu Dazai one street away from Yokohama's home.

—He is entangled with a woman.

Dazai Osamu's charm and ability to attract the opposite sex are clear to Gojo Satoru - he has not forgotten the fact that he has ridiculed him several times for not being able to find a girlfriend and threatened to teach himself how to pick up girls, but Dazai Osamu lacked conditions when he was a curse spirit. The two of them were together almost every day, let alone the opportunity, so except for the first time he hooked up with the shrine maiden, which made him angry and funny, Gojo Satoru had never seen him seduce a strange woman.

Over the past year or so, Osamu Dazai has grown a lot taller, and the last trace of youthfulness has faded away, and he is completely youthful, with a tall and thin back.

This guy whose appearance is exactly the same as the young man in "ten years later" in his memory smiles distantly but unreasonably ambiguously. The love in the eyes of the people on the other side almost overflows when he looks at him, even if he is wet all over his body. It's so embarrassing, but it doesn't detract from his charm, on the contrary, he has a different kind of abusive feeling.

So why is he all wet? !Did he commit suicide by jumping into the river again?Or find someone to die for love? !

Gojo Satoru's heart tightened at that moment, and he walked directly in front of him. Osamu Dazai was surprised when he saw him, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes—what was he panicking about? !

Gojo Satoru dragged him home with a sullen face, threw him into the bathtub for a good wash, and then found that the ring on his hand was gone! !

"...was washed by crude oil, it must have been too slippery, so...it disappeared." Osamu Dazai said guiltily, "I was just about to buy one that was exactly the same, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon... I'm afraid of that passer-by. do not recognize."

Can passers-by look at you like that? !Why don't passers-by look at me like that? !

Gojo Gojo was angry, but even more angry was that Osamu Dazai lost the ring!First the mobile phone and then the ring, saying it was a coincidence is a pure insult to Osamu Dazai's IQ!

"...that was made to order!"

"So... just buy a similar one first, and deal with it..." Probably realizing that Gojo Satoru's eyes were about to burst into flames, Osamu Dazai's voice became softer and softer.

Gojo Satoru persuaded himself to calm down, maybe it was really an accident? !He took several deep breaths and asked again: "What's the matter with crude oil?! Did you jump into the oil field!"

"That..." Osamu Dazai probably realized that he seemed to have jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't clean himself up. He wanted to cry without tears, "If I said that I accidentally opened the valve of the oil pipe when I was doing the task, would you believe me..."

"...You don't even make up a decent reason!!!"

"Because it's all lost, no matter how you make it up, it's not sincere..."

"You really thought about making it up?! Oh yes, you just wanted to fool me into getting a fake ring!"

"How could it be a fool, I will order the exact same one!"

"... Isn't that a fool?! I would rather you tell me frankly that you accidentally lost it!"

"...Didn't I say that?!"

"Who knows if it's true! Maybe you lost it a long time ago! I found an excuse to buy a ring when I got caught today!"

"What's going on? Don't slander me!" Osamu Dazai was also angry, "What do I really want to do for you to find out?"

"Then make me believe that you are not lying!"

"Oh, so that means you don't believe me? Then why should I explain it to someone who doesn't believe me?"

Gojo Satoru: "...???"

The two were arguing, and Gojo Satoru realized that he was unknowingly at a disadvantage. He was no match for Osamu Dazai!

... Then what's the fuss about!Why would he use what he is not good at to deal with Osamu Dazai who is too quick-spoken!

Gojo Satoru resolutely pressed down on Osamu Dazai's head, pressing up to block his mouth.

...the two had a fight in the water of the bath.

When he returned to the bed and continued to fight, because only the bedside night light was turned on in the bedroom, and the light was dim, Gojo Satoru was shocked to find that——

"Why is there a green light on your body?! Is it implying something??!" After a pause, he asked even more shocked, "Why do I seem to have it on me too?!?!"

"...Are you illiterate or amnesia! You told me I soaked in crude oil!"

"...When will it disappear?"

"Normal metabolism is estimated to take four to five days..."

"Then we won't go out for a few days!"

Osamu Dazai: "???"

Isn't that what he meant? !
