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

Ayase was the only one excited, and an idea about their mission suddenly came to mind.

She suddenly felt that the place where the gold was dropped just now was so familiar, and even the amount of gold was suddenly emphasized again——

Ten kilograms of gold hidden in the adoptive father's room!

Ayase Yui petrified.

——Isn't this the inheritance she found in her adoptive father's room when she was 20 years old? !

Yui Ayase: "..."

It turned out that her adoptive father really didn't leave any money for her.

She followed Dazai dejectedly, feeling as if she had lost her soul.

Alas, the money I earned was sent to support my past self...

It seemed she was destined to lose the money.

***

They followed closely into the passage.

This is a place very similar to the Soul Realm. There is a rich aura floating in the air, and even the luminous bodies hanging in the sky are the same as the Soul Realm.

According to what she and Master Qingming conjectured at the time, this different dimension hidden in the adoptive father's room may be created by the adoptive father, just like the soul world.

The three small figures in front of them started to get nervous after walking a few steps. Several pairs of small hands were pulling Suzuki Sora's sleeves, asking him repeatedly: "Brother Suzuki, where is this place?"

Suzuki Sora looked very much like a magic stick at this time: "This is the spirit world, a space that has the same root as the soul world but is divided."

He smiled mysteriously: "This is a place with infinite possibilities... All your wishes can be fulfilled—as long as you are willing to pay the price."

Ayase Yui frowned deeply.

She thought of Shinji, Katsumi, and Yuu who had stepped into reincarnation shortly after meeting Oda-kun, and she couldn't help raising her vigilance——

Yui Ayase didn't want these children not to be able to step into reincarnation because of her time travel.

Suzuki Sora took a few children into a place she was very familiar with——

During the decisive battle, she was bound to the laboratory.

Ayase Yui thought of Makuuchi Ao who seemed to have everything under control, and her heart shuddered.

this person……

Although Makuuchi turned his back on the decisive battle, Yui Ayase could tell that he was definitely involved in many unexplainable things.

And the laboratory he inherited was also where her adoptive father left behind.

Ayase can only have a hunch that here she can discover another secret.

She took a deep breath, and to be on the safe side, she put a few concealment charms on herself and Dazai again, and then stepped into the laboratory.

The decorations in the laboratory were no different from the ones she had seen last time, only there were fewer pots with golems in the corner.

Seeing Suzuki Sora bringing people over, Makuuchi put down his work and directed him to move the potted poplar trees to the center of the laboratory.

He sat down in front of several children, smiled, and asked directly: "Do you want to resurrect others?"

Dazai's expression froze instantly.

With his brain, as soon as these words came out, he immediately knew who these children really wanted to resurrect.

"—Can you really revive Odasaku?"

Shinji, Katsumi, and Yu held each other's hands, looking at him timidly, with timid but firm expressions.

Mauchi Ang smiled and did not answer directly. Instead, he stroked the leaves of the poplar tree and asked with a smile, "Do you know what kind of tree this is?"

"What is it?" They stared at the potted plant with aspen, and asked nervously.

"It's a poplar tree." Makuuchi said softly.

He caressed the flat leaves of the poplar tree affectionately, his eyes were full of fanaticism: "In a very old country, he is known as one of the four great ghost trees."

"It's called 'Ghost Clapping'." Makuuchi said with a smile: "It's just because when the wind blows the leaves, it makes a clapping sound like clapping hands."

Seeing a few children still standing there in a daze, not moving or speaking, they just looked at themselves with tightly pursed lips.

Aang smiled again: "But I found that after adding some other substances, it has a different power."

After talking about these seemingly unrelated topics, he sighed and stared at the three children: "Are you sure you want to resurrect that person?"

"Sure!"

"We want Odasaku!"

"Ah."

"Even if you have to sacrifice your life? Will you never see him again?" Muuchi Ang gradually became serious.

Shinji, Katsumi, and Yu held hands, looked at each other, and then came out and said, "We are family."

"Even if he learns the truth, he will be sad for you?"

"Odasaku won't know!"

"What if he finds out?" Munei Ang asked.

Yu was still holding Sakule's doll in his arms, and his eyes could not restrain the color of sadness and fear, but he still said firmly: "It's okay, with Sakule and Xingsuke accompanying Odasaku, he will be fine." .”

Seeing this, Mauchi Ang returned to his expressionless face: "I don't want this to be known by others."

He looked at the four people present with warning eyes, and finally fixed on the three children: "So... start now?"

Shinji, Katsumi, and Yu let go of their holding hands, and nodded one by one with trembling lips.

Makuuchi took one last look at Suzuki Sora: "You know how to explain it?"

Suzuki Sora smiled: "Of course. They just stepped into reincarnation."

Makuuchi nodded, then signaled him to go out.

Suzuki Sora hadn't taken two steps before he was stopped by Yu: "Wait! Brother Suzuki!"

Suzuki Sora stopped, turned around and looked at them suspiciously.

Yu gritted his teeth, hesitated for a while, and handed out the doll in his hand: "Please return this to Saki Le."

With tears in his eyes, he said, "This is her favorite doll." He choked up a few times before continuing: "In the future, this doll will accompany Xiaole, maybe it will be like we accompany them."

After finishing speaking, Yu stuffed the doll into Suzuki Sora's hand, and directly accompanied the other two people to lie on the experimental table.

Ayase Yui wanted to stop it, but saw a burst of white light suddenly appearing in front of the two of them, the piercer couldn't open his eyes.

——The masterpiece of white light.

Where the two of them couldn't see, a dark green light group full of life colors jumped out of the poplar tree and got into Ayase Yui's body.

……

Ayase Yui and Dazai crossed over again.

This time, it fell directly into a remote alley in Yokohama.

It was very gloomy.

Familiar gloom.

Osamu Dazai couldn't help but recall that day three years ago with a sense of familiarity.

In the mimic event, the death of Oda Saku was like a sacrifice, saving Osamu Dazai who was immersed in darkness.

His gaze swept across the shop not far away, and the calendar and clock hanging on the wall came into view.

His suddenly gloomy face attracted Ayase Yui's attention: "Dazai? What's wrong with you?"

Dazai shook his head, did not speak, and was immersed in memories again——

Among all the participants involved in the mimic incident, only he and Oda Saku had no knowledge of intelligence.

He himself was hanged by Mori Ogai who planned the whole process.

——That was Mori Ogai's warning to him.

For this reason, Dazai seized the intelligence resources even more after he cleared his identity, and even found a person with supernatural powers who could obtain secret information at any cost.

This is also the secret that he was able to tell Ayase Moor that he committed suicide when they first met.

He frowned deeply, his eyes staring at the clock seemed to have been quenched into the night, and he seemed hesitant.

The sky was getting darker, and the dark clouds in the sky rolled over like sea waves, covering the sky of Yokohama.

The rain is getting heavier.

Looking around, there is no one else on this street except for two people.

Yui Ayase clearly sensed that something was wrong with Dazai, she didn't speak, but just stood beside him, accompanying him without saying a word.

Time passed little by little, and the clothes on the two of them were also wet by the rain.The raindrops hit Dazai's seaweed-like hair, as if he was overwhelmed, his slightly frizzy curly hair was wet against his cheeks, and the raindrops meandered down his chin.

A pair of slightly wet shoes stepped into a nearby puddle.The owner of the shoe grumbled dissatisfiedly.

Ayase Yui felt that the voice was familiar, so she couldn't help but poke her head to see——

The person who came was wearing a tan cloak and a deerstalker hat on his head, and his bouncing steps looked brisk and lively.

"Yes—" Ranbu-kun!

Before Yui Ayase could say anything, she remembered that this was not their time, and hurriedly covered her mouth.

But it's too late.

Edogawa Ranpo held an umbrella in his hand, his green eyes slowly turned to the two of them.

Yui Ayase couldn't tell whether she should be nervous or relieved at this moment.

She looked at Edogawa Ranpo with expectant and nervous eyes, holding her breath and waiting for him to speak first.

"You know me?" Ranpo Edogawa squeezed his chin with one hand, walked around Yui Ayase twice, and then took out black-rimmed glasses from his pocket.

"——I understand." He showed a proud and wanton smile, "You need the help of Lord Ranpo!" After finishing speaking, he remembered that the president asked him to be polite, and he was quite reluctant. Added the question word, "Right?"

what help?Does Mr. Ranbu know their mission to reach this point in time?

Yui Ayase was wondering, but before he could speak, Dazai who was standing behind took the lead——

"Correct."

He said: "Mr. Ranpo, tell me—"

"Should I go there now?" His iris-colored eyes were full of anticipation and struggle.

The establishment of the demon world was predestined, so they were forced to travel to Heianjing to complete the closure of the timeline.

But he also saw with his own eyes that Odasaku lived in the soul world and was an undead.

and so……

The death of Oda Saku is also predestined, and he will be an undead in the subsequent time point.

"Should I save him?" Dazai asked him again with determination and desperation in his eyes.

He still remembers Yui Ayase's ability description:

【The history you change will be projected into the future, and the wings of a butterfly may set off a hurricane...】

"Haven't you already made a decision?" Edogawa Ranbu narrowed his emerald-like eyes and stared straight at him, "It's still too late."

He thought for a moment, then added, "The red-haired man just left."

Yui Ayase understood.

With a bright face and a smile like a spring flower, she encouraged him: "Why did you hesitate, Dazai?"

She raised the corner of her mouth with difficulty, showing a bit of sadness: "Isn't the scene we witnessed just now the history that has already happened?"

She told Dazai what she found when she found Oda-kun: "He is not a dead soul, Dazai."

"Man is born to redeem himself.①"

Rescuing Odasaku is also saving yourself.

Ayase Yui smiled and said, "Let's go, Dazai."
