Special investigation report from Yokohama

Although they had a tacit understanding when they cooperated, the two teenagers were indeed incompatible when they fought.Seeing that Atsushi Nakajima had already thrown himself in front of Akutagawa, and was about to scratch the document bag in his hand with his claws, a sudden voice came from beside the two of them: "Okay. Stop!"

The sound was too close, and the two people above looked over like pussy cats, and saw the gray-haired boy standing beside them, holding a crepe in one hand.

"Jinjian?" Atsushi Nakajima asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

What surprised him even more was that Ryunosuke Akutagawa coughed and greeted him calmly: "Cough...Imaken."

"Here's one." Imaiken handed the crepe in his left hand to Atsushi Nakajima.Atsushi Nakajima took it in a daze, and said "thank you", seeing that Imaiwa's eyes lingered between the crepe and Akutagawa Ryunosuke for a moment, and reluctantly handed out the crepe in his right hand :"this is for you."

"I don't need it." Akutagawa Ryunosuke flatly refused.

Jinjian snorted, quickly retracted his hand, and took a bite of the pie crust.

Although I don't know why Imaken and Akutagawa Ryunosuke knew each other, but his appearance undoubtedly made the atmosphere much more relaxed.Akutagawa Ryunosuke handed out the document bag, but he didn't know who to hand it to: "This is the information of the person who traded with the port Mafia."

Atsushi Nakajima was stunned for a moment, and Imamori reached out to take the information and handed it to him: "It's the director. On the way to the detective agency, he traded a gun with the port Mafia."

As he said that, Jin Jian asked curiously: "Why did you guys start fighting?"

He went to buy crepes because Atsushi Nakajima stopped here, and when he came back, he found that the two were fighting.

"Such a weak guy is not worthy of being Mr. Dazai's subordinate." Akutagawa Ryunosuke replied firmly, "The life of a coward is a stain on life. Since he chose to escape, it is better to come down and end his pain."

"I'm not!" Atsushi Nakajima yelled reflexively.

"Don't fight!" Jin Jian shouted equally loudly.Atsushi Nakajima barely restrained his impulse, and what shocked him was that the hem of Akutagawa Ryunosuke's clothes, which was eager to try, also shrank back amidst Imaken's shout.

Ok?

The expression "Did I see a fake Akutagawa" on his face was so obvious that even Ryunosuke Akutagawa couldn't help but snorted coldly, and left without looking back.Atsushi Nakajima took the file bag, and his dizzy head finally started working again: "Did Mr. Dazai ask him to come?"

"That's right, I saw the Dazai Palace sent a message." Jin Jian said while eating, "Just when you ran out."

Atsushi Nakajima whispered: "I'm causing you trouble."

"It's okay, we're familiar with each other too." Imamori stood on tiptoe and patted Atsushi Nakajima on the shoulder like a little adult.

Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help laughing.

Jin Jian glanced into the distance: "Anyway, take your time. I'll go back first!"

"Yeah." Atsushi Nakajima nodded to him, "Thank you for the crepe, and... thank you Mr. Dazai and everyone at the detective agency for me."

"You can talk about it yourself!" Jin Jian waved his hand, leaving him the time thoughtfully.

The boy sat on the bench by the sea and opened the file bag.

Jin Jian stood in the distance, looking at the boy's lonely back: "Is it okay to leave him alone?"

"It's okay." The tall young man appeared behind him and replied gently, "This is the confusion and pain he must go through, and we can't bear it for him."

Jin Jian tugged at his bangs, not quite understanding: "Is that so?"

He thought about it again, and added firmly: "But when I'm sad, I always want to go to the Lord's side."

"That's why Jin Jian is a child." The young man replied with a smile.

Only children dare to express their desires so unobstructed.From this point of view, it is really enviable.

Jinjian let out a "hum" in disbelief—it really doesn't matter who is older!

Osamu Dazai didn't speak any more, and after a while Imaken heard the rustling of cloth behind him.He turned his head and saw Osamu Dazai had turned and left.

"Are you leaving just like that?" he asked.Osamu Dazai still didn't answer, but just waved at him inexplicably.

Imaken turned his head again, seeing that Atsushi Nakajima had probably finished reading the resume.I don't know what is in the dean's resume. He is sitting on the bench at the moment, with his head deeply buried between his hands, looking helpless and depressed.

"Are you okay, Atsushi?" After an unknown amount of time, a female voice suddenly sounded behind Atsushi Nakajima.

Atsushi Nakajima turned his head and looked at the visitor in surprise: "Miss Hongyao?"

"Jinghua, please let me take a look." Hong Yao pressed his shoulder, motioning him not to get up, "I talked to Mr. Dean about his past, now it seems that you already know."

"Ah, yes. Mr. Dazai asked Akutagawa to send the director's previous resume," Atsushi Nakajima was silent for a moment, "I...I never thought that he lived such a life."

In the distance, Jin Jian widened his eyes suspiciously: "My lord?"

Isn't the lordship "rehabilitating"?Does everyone in Honmaru know about her coming out?This question turned twice in Jinjian's mind, and was quickly thrown out of the sky.Then, another question popped up: Could it be that the Dazai Palace left in such a hurry just now to avoid the lord?But at this distance, the lord will not notice him?

It's more like he doesn't want to see the lord—hmph, it seems that the lord wants to see him.Jinjian thought angrily.

Neither Hong Yao nor Nakajima Atsushi knew that there was a bystander in the distance, the young man looked at Hong Yao who was obviously not much older than him, but had always played the role of a gentle and reliable elder, and asked anxiously: "What should I do? "

"The dean came this time because he read about you in the newspaper and came to visit you as your former guardian." Hong Yao didn't answer directly, but thought about her words, and told Atsushi Nakajima what the dean said, "He knows you hate him, and he doesn't want your forgiveness. He said, he wants you to continue to hate him, but don't hate yourself. But you are more afraid of him than he thinks, so it is inconvenient for him Come to find you, I hope I will come to you to talk to you instead of him."

Atsushi Nakajima's mind seemed to be a mess, and he was dizzy and couldn't figure out a clue.He asked blankly: "He...is it for me? Is he doing all those things for me?"

As he said that, the boy's voice became a little excited: "What about me? Should I forgive him? I——should I not care about those things?"

"Don't worry, Atsushi, calm down." Hong Yao lowered her head and looked at Nakajima Atsushi who was sitting on the bench. The boy's shortness of breath gradually calmed down. Thinking of what happened just now, he felt embarrassed again: " Miss Hongyao, I..."

Hong Yao patted him on the shoulder, signaling him not to care: "Do you like your life now, Dunjun?"

Atsushi Nakajima nodded without thinking.

The life he is living now is something he never dared to dream of.Not only is he well fed and clothed, and he can walk freely on the street, but he also gets to know everyone in the detective agency, has a reliable companion... and can help someone with his own hands.

Because of this, he was especially terrified when the dean appeared.

"That's fine."

Atsushi Nakajima looked at her suspiciously.

"The dean didn't ask for any results, he just came to visit you. Knowing that you don't welcome him, he will naturally not appear again in the future. He has already left, and he has not had time to communicate with anyone in the detective agency except Mr. Dazai. You go back to the detective agency now and nothing will change."

is that so?

Atsushi Nakajima always felt that she had something to say, but in a panic, he couldn't find anything to question.

Seeing Atsushi Nakajima's doubtful face, Hong Yao smiled slightly.

"As a bystander, you did a good enough job, Dunjun. It is not uncommon for a child who lived in such an environment to hate society after leaving the orphanage and take revenge on innocent people even more. Although the dean The means are harsh and cruel, but you are a kind and gentle child who was educated by him."

Seeing that Atsushi Nakajima blushed a little, she laughed out loud: "There is nothing to be embarrassed about, you should be proud of yourself."

Although the dean's wishes are good, his methods are really not flattering, and Hong Yao doesn't like people who do such cruel things to children.Agreeing to the dean's request was actually for Atsushi Nakajima's sake.

This kid has worked hard enough, but it's a pity that his two elders - the dean and Osamu Dazai - are not the ones who will speak out the praise seriously.

Then let her do it.

Although Atsushi Nakajima is still embarrassed, but he received such direct affirmation, it must be false to say that he is unhappy.He blushed and thanked Hongyao: "Thank you, Miss Hongyao."

"It's okay, I just said a few words."

As he said that, Hong Yao glanced at the file bag next to Atsushi Nakajima inadvertently, with a rare hint of hesitation in his expression.

"Although I don't want to talk about it, but..." She paused, pointing to the file bag, "If you think that escaping is not a long-term solution, but you don't know how to deal with it, go ask that guy."

Atsushi Nakajima was taken aback for a moment: "Mr. Dazai?"

"Dazai's former guardian is much worse than that dean. I shouldn't tell you about his past, but he has done better than most people in facing the past."

...No, it doesn't seem to be a problem to say that everything is bad.

In a trance, Hong Yao thought of that wet, gloomy, tired and confused young man. At that time, Osamu Dazai was about the same age as Atsushi Nakajima now, and he was also shrouded in the shadow of the past.Now the boy's silhouette seems to be very far away, so far away that the shadow of the past can hardly be seen on him now.

"Miss Hongyao?"

Hong Yao smiled as if waking up from a dream: "Anyway, everyone in the detective agency is still worried about you, so go back quickly."

Atsushi Nakajima bid farewell to the red medicine and walked to the detective agency, thinking about what happened today while walking.Back at the detective agency, although the members did not say anything, they were all relieved to see him. Seeing him, Atsushi Nakajima apologized in embarrassment: "I have caused trouble for everyone."

"Come to work if you know it's causing trouble!" Kunikida Doppo coughed immediately, "Really, one or two are missing..."

"Don't be so strict, Kunikida." Yosano casually helped Atsushi Nakajima to excuse him.Atsushi Nakajima sat down at his seat, subconsciously glanced at Osamu Dazai's station because of what Hong Yao said, only to realize that he was not there: "Where are Mr. Dazai and Mr. Oda?"

Junichiro Tanizaki said in surprise, "Mr. Oda just asked for leave...Didn't Mr. Dazai come to see you?"

Atsushi Nakajima shook his head blankly: "I only saw Miss Hongyao, but not Mr. Dazai."

"Who knows what that guy did!" Kunikida Doppo was obviously very experienced, and he wasn't surprised at all, "Alright Atsushi, don't worry about his affairs, here's a commission..."

"Ah, yes!" Atsushi Nakajima quickly agreed.

It wasn't until Atsushi Nakajima left in a hurry with the power of attorney in hand that Tanizaki asked worriedly, "Atsushi is like this...is there no problem?"

"It's not him who has the problem." Edogawa Ranpo ate half of his dim sum, and interjected vaguely.Junichiro Tanizaki wanted to ask curiously, but Naomi Tanizaki rushed into his arms: "My brother actually bypassed me to care about others—"

"Eh? No, Naomi!"

During Tanizaki Junichiro's screams, Yosano Akiko's eyes flicked across the three vacant seats one by one, and finally fixed on Dazai Osamu's seat. Thinking of what Atsushi Nakajima said just now, he lightly "tsk" One sound.
