Drowning in a sea of ​​moonlight

Dazai pointed the gun at me again, with a smile on his lips: "Then, kid."

"I wanted to let you speak softly, but you are too determined."

"Tell me, why did you join Port Mafia? What are your abilities?"

He lowered his voice, leaned close to my ear, blew softly and said: "...you know, if I get serious, it would be so easy to ask these things out of your mouth .”

"In terms of digging people's hearts, I have never failed once."

"Sister Hongye, the following scenes may not be suitable for you to watch."

He said without looking back.

Ozaki glanced at him one last time, turned back and walked away in silence.

...Indeed, he has a very simple and absolutely sure way of asking what he wants to know from me.

Still, I never thought he'd actually do that.

Dazai still had the same but unfamiliar smile as usual: "Tell me, what if I tell you next time that every time you don't answer a question well, I'll shoot myself? What will happen?"

"It's not just talking." You know that too, right?Although this kind of threat, if it is another person, it is very unconvincing. "But for me, there's nothing I can't do."

"Think about it, it's obviously something that can be done so easily by speaking, but it's just because you don't want to, that it hurts the target you tried so hard to protect.

"Wow~ That kind of wonderful dilemma, that kind of guilt, must be terrible! I feel bad for you when I think about it!"

I looked at him blankly and thought, it's time to leave.

It doesn't make any sense for me to stay here.

At this time, he suddenly put away the gun, put away his smile, and said coldly: "...But if you really do that, and then you break down, it will be meaningless."

Then, throw a roll of bandages at my feet.

"Speak quickly while I'm still in a magnanimous mood."

It took such a lot of thought and set up such a big game, just to force me into such a situation.

Now you want to voluntarily give up the most effective way to interrogate me?

I didn't pick it up, just stood there and looked at him.

Can't see through what he wants to do.

--at this time.

Countless identical "dips" sounded from far to near, resounding like waves.

There was a faint commotion upstairs.

Dazai let out a "tsk", showing a helpless expression: "What a coincidence."

As soon as the words fell, a group of men in black rushed up and pointed their guns at us.

—The port mafia?

...No, the clothes look alike, but they aren't.

The leader said, "Put your hands up and retreat into the room behind you."

"Okay, okay, but be patient, the kid next to me is injured."

With a cooperative face, Dazai dropped the gun, pulled me up, and dragged me into the back room.

Surrounded by empty and dilapidated gray walls, behind the open windows, there was a dark night.

As I staggered back, there was a faint glint in my eye.

——The flash of jade pendant.

——Teach in the daytime!

How did they break through the defenses of the port mafia and get in here?

"Is it true that there is a tunnel down there? It seems that you are a little stronger than I thought?"

Surrounded by so many people, Dazai was still talking leisurely.

"Thank you, the cadre of the port mafia. Oh, how about the former cadre? Just passed by, and your subordinates seem to be very excited."

Coincidentally, at this moment, Akutagawa's suppressed anger voice came from Dazai's communicator: "Mr. Dazai, what is going on—"

Before he could finish speaking, he was cut off by Dazai.

He sighed in distress and said.

"Hey - what a failure, I was tricked by Mr. Sen, even you know?"

The leader seemed to be very leisurely, and said to him very patiently: "Yeah, so you don't resist, and you won't get hurt. After all, we all hope that after you leave the current organization, able to come to us."

"Wow! It's really an honor to think highly of me~"

Dazai said in surprise.

At this time, a strong light suddenly shone from behind, a huge wind fell from the sky, and a voice without warmth said: "You are surrounded, don't move, or shoot immediately."

On the forehead of the person from the Bairi Sect opposite, there was a red spot of light from a sniper rifle.

Dazai continued to say with a smile: "...but, do you think that I won't have a backup?"

"The failure I just mentioned is that Mr. Mori has failed too much~ This thing has been heard, so shameful."

I turned my head slightly and saw a black helicopter hanging in the air outside the window, which was of Japanese military specifications.

——The Government of Japan.

——Ability Special Affairs Section.

Ahhh.

It turned out to be the case.

With the Oda matter, the feud between Mori Ogai and Dazai must be real.

Then if Dazai pretends to be indifferent, and plots against me together with him, and devises such a scene of pretending to defect, Mori Ogai doesn’t know if he has already developed a different heart, and he will definitely catch this fake scene. At the right time, inform the Mafia personnel at the port that he has indeed defected, thus forcing him to leave.

And it won't do him any harm if I leave, after all, I'm not completely loyal to the port Mafia, and I also have friendship with China, which may in turn affect some of his judgments.

Then Dazai only needs to choose this opportunity to fake the show for real, find a good next organization, and that's it.

It can also confuse the public and confuse the members of Port Mafia who participated in this matter, wondering whether the defection is true or not.

In this way, if he had to appear in front of Mafia at the port next and was hunted down by them, the people who came to contact him would also be suspicious.

Like a perfectly coordinated pas de deux, Mori Ogai achieved his goal of driving Dazai away from the port of Mafia.

Dazai's goal of finding a reasonable reason to leave and trying to make the matter as confusing as possible has also been achieved.

At the same time, their purpose of exploring information about me has also been achieved.

Really, it's a no-brainer.

I kind of want to applaud them.

In the end, I stayed by his side for three months. Although it may not have played any role, I witnessed him walking from darkness to sunshine by accident.

My responsibility, so far, has been exhausted.

...Actually, I kind of want to ask him.

When he looked at me and smiled under the cherry blossoms, did he only have contempt in his heart?

On the top of the mountain, he listened to me trying to enlighten him, did he think I was stupid?

In the dormitory, when he saw me agreeing to stay with him, did he sneer in his heart?

...Didn't it be fun for him to watch me busy and considerate these days?

Does all that I do really mean nothing to him?

In the end, do you still treat me as a pawn, an enemy?

...But by now, none of that makes sense.

Moreover, Dazai may have underestimated the degree of insanity of the people of the day school.

After hearing his words, the leader on the opposite side suddenly realized: "That's it, it seems that our information is incomplete."

"There is no other way, although it is a pity, but compared to giving you a chance to fight against the Holy Cult in the future—"

With a wave of his hand, everyone was loaded in unison, and countless guns were aimed at us.

"It's better for me to feel at ease if you die with us now."

...Because in their eyes, nothing is important, including their own lives.

They give everything to their teachings.

——Pursuing the doctrine of "God".

Because of this, their cautious style is actually downright crazy.

After all, Dazai has a lot of stains on his resume, even if they reached some kind of contract, rather than saving him, the Supernatural Secret Service Division might still be more inclined to abandon him to destroy these daytime teachers.

"Still, I hope you change your mind. Let those people go back and join us." You can't even imagine what we're capable of. "What we can give you is the appearance of the 'god' of this world, which is the salvation of the soul that everyone desires!"

...But they haven't completely lost their minds yet, they are still persuading Dazai to join and let the Supernatural Secret Service Division withdraw.

But after all, the Supernatural Secret Service Division is not like me, and will put his safety first.

If this continues, if Dazai didn't have enough leverage to negotiate with them, everyone will die here in the end.

I looked down and found that there were people from the Supernatural Secret Service below who were confronting people from Mafia at the port, and Akutagawa was also below.

I know that it is impossible for him to kill Dazai before asking about it.

Will spare no effort to protect him.

That's it.

So far, I have no other way to choose.

......So be it.

When the two sides confront each other, I don't know why, but I feel a burst of relief.

It's finally over, I thought.

Then he reached out and took out a piece from his sleeve that he didn't expect to really use today.

Dazai noticed the movement, turned his head sideways, and finally changed color when he saw me.

I looked at him and said softly.

"I'm not going to stop you from killing yourself again."

"From now on, live freely."

——This is your father's lifelong wish, and it is also my wish today.

Farewell, Dazai.

...Never see each other again.

Hearing this, his face suddenly turned pale, and for the first time in so many days, there was a look of horror in his eyes.

"No, stop, now—"

He said in a voiceless voice, trying to snatch what was in my hand, but I pushed it out of the window.

Then I turned around, tossed the charge into the air, and watched silently as it was hit by the subconscious bullet from the sniper.

The flames instantly engulfed the entire room, a huge shock wave came, and endless brightness and heat enveloped me for a while.

I close my eyes.

Donna, Alisha, Powell, Ms. Etsuko, Suzue, and the smiling faces of the vice president appeared before her eyes.

Then, silently, a tear slid down her cheek.

The author has something to say:

Ugh.

If it weren't for the Moonlight Society, maybe something happened, and it wouldn't be so fragile now.

From the perspective of slaughter in the next chapter, the long-awaited knife slaughter scene.

If the words I wanted to ask today, I really asked them. .It won't change anything either.After all, Zai even lied to himself, he would not know how he got along these few days and now.

Although he is deliberately clingier and softer than his usual personality, in fact, he has always revealed his true feelings.

Feelings that can't be reached.
