A live broadcast of a Yokohama strange talk

============================

Following the detailed address on the email received in Uesugi Raku's mobile phone, Oda Sakunosuke stopped in front of the tall signal tower.

At some point, an elevator door appeared under the tower, and a familiar person stood there and reached out to press the button of the elevator.In an instant, together with the ground where the person was standing, the space dropped rapidly and then recovered again was the empty elevator door.

"Ango!"

Just as Sakunosuke Oda was about to step forward, the online game-like dialogue selection interface obtained under the guidance of Uesugi Raku uncontrollably jumped out and occupied the field of vision.

A string of reminder text reads: The unknown stage is coming, you are standing on the edge of entering the stage, it seems that you have noticed something... Do you need to detect [inspiration]?

There are only two options in the selection interface, [Yes] and [No].

Oda Sakunosuke clicked the option of [Yes] without hesitation. He could not let go of any possible clues. What's more, the same ability of this game system was left by Uesugi Raku. After trying it, he now has it. I must understand.

The dice shook and fell from mid-air, with the number 12 facing up.

【success】

The interface dissipated, and the view was no longer blocked. The elevator door in front of Oda Sakunosuke completely changed its appearance. Unlike the shiny new iron door just now, the elevator door that appeared in front of him was written with red paint. large characters.

"Burn the fuel so you can shine."

Oda Sakunosuke looked at the line of words, took out his mobile phone and took a picture of it with the camera function, intending to show it to his friends to think about together later.He pressed the down button of the elevator, and the scene in front of him changed rapidly. When he came back to his senses, his surroundings had changed into a new environment.

This place looks like an abandoned theater. Ango Sakaguchi, who came down first, was already sitting in the auditorium. His round glasses with black edges glowed cold white under the dim light. When he heard the movement, he turned his head to look, and saw The person in the room was Oda Sakunosuke, and his frown relaxed a lot.

"So it was you." Sakaguchi Ango said, "Why, you also received that email?"

"I received it from Le's mobile phone." Oda Sakunosuke said truthfully, "Ango will appear here, is this related to supernatural powers?"

Friends who have been working overtime and love to work overtime will appear in this place at this time, Oda Sakunosuke subconsciously thought of something related to work, and Ango Sakaguchi also nodded, confirming Oda Sakunosuke's thoughts.

There were only two people in the empty theater. Although it was abandoned, everything was unbelievably clean.Ango Sakaguchi touched what he could touch at present, and then he returned to sit beside Oda Sakunosuke.

"So that's it, I understand." He folded his hands on his chin, his pensive eyes fixed on the stage not far away.

The huge stage occupies the entire space in front of you, silently waiting for the challengers who arrive here.

Oda Sakunosuke looked at him, he knew that Ango Sakaguchi would explain it to him.

Sakaguchi Ango's contemplation soon ended, and he said helplessly, "Where did you provoke that guy..."

"Ango will help me, right?" Oda Sakunosuke laughed.The man has gentle eyebrows and eyes, which is really hard for friends to refuse.

"Then let's start from the past."

For Ango Sakaguchi, he noticed Raku Uesugi because of 【Devil Live Studio】.Even though Raku Uesugi has quit, the negative impression left by that period of observation is hard to get rid of.And because Uesugi Raku is obviously entangled with Oda Sakunosuke and will not leave, Sakaguchi Ango pays more attention to Uesugi Raku.During his work, he was exposed to another related incident——

The created Two-dimensional characters break through the dimension and come to the creator who created them. Some of the created have powerful and uncontrollable power, which must be contacted and placed at the beginning.

In the beginning, a white-haired girl named Altair came to the door on her own initiative.Ango Sakaguchi, who didn't know much about Two-dimensional, was still a little confused at the beginning. From why Two-dimensional characters can come to reality to why they are only re-created, Jun Ji has countless different abilities, and finally complained too much. Instead, Ango Sakaguchi had an epiphany and accepted everything.

Anyway, the reality is like this.jpg

"Altair?" Oda Sakunosuke quickly found the relevant information from his memory, "I have the impression that Le told me that his co-illustrator, Shimazaki Setsuna, had done the secondary creation of this character. very high."

"Yes, it was under Setsuna Shimazaki that Altair, as a military concubine, became popular and widely recognized."

In short, under Altair's active organization, the visitors from the other world did not cause any trouble, and even joined the Supernatural Secret Service Division, becoming a colleague of Ango Sakaguchi.

"It was shown to me before that Uesugi Raku gave his own image to Shimazaki Setsuna for character creation, right? I will appear here because of this matter. Oda Tsukuru, you know, Uesugi Raku The film adaptation of the novel has been released."

Oda Sakunosuke knew, but he hadn't had time to watch the movie, so he only knew some of the plot.

A bold guess came to Oda Sakunosuke's mind.

"Could it be that this place has something to do with that movie?"

Ango Sakaguchi said: "It's such a coincidence that the emails that appear in our mobile phones now, and the place we come to now, is the plot that a character that appeared in that movie will bring... In other words, we now, Like being in that movie. Anyway, I came to this place just to investigate that character."

After explaining why he was here, Ango Sakaguchi looked very relaxed.

"As a creation, it will definitely come to the creator. Is there something wrong with Uesugi Raku when you come here?"

Oda Sakunosuke briefly described what happened after returning home. After listening to it, Ango Sakaguchi was a little surprised: "I thought I had someone's supernatural power. Since I came to this underground theater, I can also see you say interface."

Oda Sakunosuke sighed: "It seems that this is also a step in Raku's plan."

All in all, having Ango Sakaguchi who understands the plot here is a great help.He opened the photo taken at the elevator entrance and handed it to Ango Sakaguchi. After just one glance, Ango Sakaguchi confirmed: "There is nothing wrong, the setting here is exactly the same as in the movie."

What role did they play in the audience?

The same doubt arose in the hearts of the two of them, and soon this doubt was temporarily suppressed by the scene in front of them.

The bright lights illuminated the dimly lit theater, breaking through the darkness. In the center of the stage set built with white bandages, a bandage hanging from the sky was like a thin spider's thread. The handsome black-haired man held it in the palm of his hand, with a smile on his lips, and a melodious violin-like voice sounded at this moment.

"All the things that people desire are of value, from the moment they get it, they are doomed to be lost one day, and there is no one thing that people want to pursue even if they prolong their painful lives-【Armed Detective Agency, Osamu Dazai】. Wake me up from the dream of this rotten world!"

Oda Sakunosuke: "..."

He and Sakaguchi Ango looked at each other, seeing the same shock and confusion in each other's eyes.

Where did the adult Dazai Osamu who was several years older in front of him come from?

Why do you appear on stage?And smoothly said the debut line?

"Where did the Armed Detective Agency come from...!"

The two people in the theater were still in shock, and Osamu Dazai, who was in the world surrounded by black mist, was also speechless for a moment-no matter how you looked at it, this person was in the world he had experienced before, and he joined the port mafia after defecting. Four years after he joined the Armed Detective Agency!

"So that's it, is this the unknown stage?" Ango Sakaguchi shook his fingers slightly and adjusted his glasses, "I understand."

【Osamu Dazai】After the words fell, the stage returned to darkness again, and new lights were soon lit up.The spotlights shone through the sky from under the feet, and the moment the lights were turned on one by one, the figure standing in the center of the other half of the stage also revealed its appearance.

Numerous silhouetted figures walk around the stage, everyone is a passer-by, only a gurgling river flows quietly under the moonlight.In the river water, women's accessories were overturned and swallowed by the undercurrent, and a young man in a black coat stood above, the white coldness at the bottom of his black hair was as cold as the distant moonlight.

"In the dream, all evils disappeared from the eyes. But only the sorrow of man—the great sorrow of man, like the moonlight filling the sky, still exists alone and harshly—[Guerrilla Captain, Akutagawa Ryu Nosuke]. Don’t forget that life is about fighting to the death.”

The boy [Akutagawa Ryunosuke] has grown a lot more than what Oda Sakunosuke has seen, and is also a lot gloomy. Those fierce eyes that seem to be able to bite everything are staring at the man in the brown coat standing at the other end of the stage. Adults [Osamu Dazai], it seems that they don't need to explain the current situation, they already know the reason for appearing here.

"The winner of this Revue will only be me," [Akutagawa Ryunosuke] said in an unquestionable tone, "After winning, I will definitely bring you back to the port mafia."

"Yeah." [Osamu Dazai] responded to the young man with a few perfunctory syllables. He couldn't wait to turn his head to look at the auditorium. The moment he saw the two people in the auditorium, his eyes lit up extremely brightly.

That was the ultimate joy that both people sitting under the stage could feel.

"Odasaku, Ango..." He just read their names in a low voice, and then showed a satisfied smile. Instead of interacting with the audience, he raised his hand to [Akutagawa Ryunosuke] and pulled out The pistol hidden under the windbreaker.

Subtitles that both Oda Sakunosuke and Sakaguchi Ango could see floated on the stage——

[Desperate Revue, start! 】

The stage in front of him was changing, and the surrounding equipment that had been in disrepair was all renewed, creating a scene that looked like the real world.If it weren't for the dense and invisible black deep in the sky above their heads, the few people present would really think that they had come to a new environment again.

Osamu Dazai, who claims to belong to the Armed Detective Agency, is taking the initiative on stage at this moment.

He hummed happily, and the leather shoes made a light trampling sound on the ground, which was oppressive like the clock hand approaching the countdown: "One person can't die for love~ but two people can~"

The pistol fired without hesitation, and the coat on [Akutagawa Ryunosuke] quickly took the shape of a black beast, and he shouted the name of his supernatural power: "Rashomon!"

【Osamu Dazai】Standing in place calmly, "Desperate Revue, this time is my theme. You have already lost, Akutagawa."

"It's not the end yet!"

From a distance that only the two of them can hear, [Osamu Dazai] said softly: "Such a beautiful world belongs to another me... It's really enviable."

He easily grabbed [Akutagawa Ryunosuke]'s coat, and before Rashomon could show his power, he returned to his normal coat—then, it was lightly lifted from [Akutagawa Ryuu] by [Dazai Osamu] Nosuke] tore off his body.

Seeing [Akutagawa Ryunosuke] looking at him in surprise, [Dazai Osamu] said: "You lost, on this stage, using a coat as a weapon is not a good choice."

In Revue's stage battle, the coat falls and you lose.

The jacket fell to the ground, [Akutagawa Ryunosuke] was sentenced to [defeat], and was covered by a hanging curtain.

【Osamu Dazai】He no longer cast his eyes there, he turned around and looked down the stage.

"POSITION ZERO—"

The light of the entire stage gathered on him, and the position where [Osamu Dazai] was standing at this moment was the center of the stage focus.

But he didn't miss the light shining on his body at all, he walked towards the auditorium, and soon, under the watchful eyes of Ango Sakaguchi and Sakunosuke Oda, he came to the place closest to them.

Kneeling down and reaching out to the two of them, [Osamu Dazai]'s sloppy expression from the beginning of the battle with Akutagawa Ryunosuke dissipated a lot at this moment.

"You told me to be a side that helps others, and I did."

The young [Osamu Dazai] spoke, his tone was gentle and friendly, but his bottomless eyes were full of undeniable firmness.

"Now, let me help you."

He stretched out his hand without fear of getting tired, waiting for a response.

Oda Sakunosuke and Sakaguchi Ango reached an agreement with each other at this moment. Even Sakaguchi Ango could feel the familiar sight of [Dazai Osamu] when he looked at them. There must be many stories hidden in it, as well as a deep bond.

They didn't have to look at each other, they stretched out their hands at the same time, and put them on [Dazai Osamu]'s hand together.

Ango Sakaguchi said: "Although I am not familiar with you now, but in your world, if we are friends—"

"Forget about Ango." [Osamu Dazai] smiled, "The social animal obediently go to work."

Ango Sakaguchi: "?!"

Hard, fist hard!

It was Oda Sakunosuke who saved the atmosphere in time.

"No matter which Dazai you are, you are my friend." Oda Sakunosuke said, "Thank you for coming here to meet me and help me."

【Osamu Dazai】 jumped off the stage and stood with the two of them.

He said in his heart——

I should have said thank you.

Thank you for having a happy life in this world.

He raised his head and looked through the thick black of the roof, as if meeting Osamu Dazai from another world.

Osamu Dazai did meet his eyes.

He raised the corners of his lips, and didn't care whether [Dazai Osamu] could see it or not, and said, "I'll leave the inside to you first, don't let me down."

Indeed, now that I am here, and there is another self inside, it is very helpful to break the status quo.

For him, the more gratifying thing is...

Oda Sakunosuke recognized that no matter who he is, he is his friend.

He with different fate, him in another world, even now, he can be called a slightly familiar stranger.

Just by feeling the difference in eyes, Oda Sakunosuke can recognize Osamu Dazai as a friend and accept this friendship.

The heart that has been shackled by layers of samsara is gradually released. This time the world is indeed beautiful, as good as Mori Ogai once said...

It's the level where you don't feel pain when you put it in your eyes.

It is undoubtedly Raku Uesugi who has brought about all these changes.

"I have to bring you back quickly."

Oda Sakunosuke, Sakaguchi Ango, and himself from another world are all in place, and I believe the rest of the main characters will be in place soon.

There is no doubt that the stage with wonderful battles is a product of another world, and it is very reasonable for him to be able to bring another world.

Osamu Dazai sighed: "So, how will the next script proceed..."

Even he can't figure out the unknown stage.
