Mihai Riho staggered out of the time-space vortex, and the first thing she saw after returning to her own world was the black-haired youth who pushed her away just now.

The tears that hadn't stopped suddenly came out again, she didn't know the other party's choice in the future.

Even if he didn't explain it, the desire to die in that world's Dazai Osamu was already very obvious.

Yakai Riho felt that the black-haired young man who was just supporting her paused, but he didn't ask what was going on, but hugged her instead.

"It's all right."

He put his right hand on his hair and touched it, then moved it to the back of his head, and pressed her head into his arms, his habitually frivolous and unreliable voice was filled with soothing mean.

"I am here."

Yakai Riho's breathing was stagnant, and the crying that was originally just biting her lip and trying to control it could not be suppressed at all.

She couldn't help but grabbed the other party's clothes and cried loudly.

Although Osamu Dazai, who had seen his own world more than once, committed suicide, and even picked him up countless times after the aftermath.

But she could feel that the other party still had such a glimmer of expectation for this world.

Will Dazai of that world...will choose to live?

She may never have the chance to know this question again.

She was hiccupping while crying, and vaguely heard the sound of panic in her crying.

"What's going on? Why are you crying all of a sudden?"

"Are you scared?"

"Ahhh, aren't you usually good at coaxing girls!? Hurry up and coax her, no, let me go!"

"You are so annoying, Chuya."

Osamu Dazai, who was holding her, withdrew his hand and did not let go, disgusted by the orange-haired youth who rushed over.

Yakai Riho, who had been crying for a while, hiccupped, then let go of the hand holding the opponent's clothes, and pushed.

"What's going on? Is it injured?"

Nakahara looked at the girl with red eyes in bewilderment.

After Osamu Dazai let go, she wiped her eyes, looked at Chuya Nakahara who was looking at her nervously, and sobbed.

"never mind."

After thinking about it, she still cursed softly, "Dazai is an idiot!"

Nakahara Zhong also subconsciously looked at the black-haired young man who put his hand back in his pocket. The other party's expression was calm, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking. After noticing his gaze, he raised his eyebrows and said calmly——

"It's not me that Riho scolded."

"Huh!? Besides you, who else is called Dazai!?"

Before he could continue to say anything, his sleeves were pulled.

The girl who rubbed her eyes said vaguely, "I'm not scolding him."

"what?"

Central Plains is also a little confused, but compared to this...

He reached out and grabbed the hand that was still rubbing his eyes, moved it away and said helplessly, "It's not good for your eyes."

Then he took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her red eye sockets. The fine eyelashes were already stained by tears, and her cheeks were slightly moist.

Yakai Riho was only stunned for a moment, then took the handkerchief and took a step back.

"I wipe it myself."

The other party didn't say anything, and after a few seconds of silence, he withdrew his hand.

"……Oh."

Mihai Riho looked around after wiping, and found that this was the place where he left before, but it was still a room with countless display screens before leaving, but now it is an open space. Looking around, there are some The ruins left behind by the explosion.

"what happened?"

"I was a step behind."

The expression on Dazai's face didn't fluctuate much, but his hands in his pockets were slowly drawn together.

"When you came here, you had already left, and the building was bombed again."

"Of course it was 'BOOM—' and it all blew up."

Yakai Riho froze for a moment, and looked at Osamu Dazai who looked intact on the outside in some panic.

Osamu Dazai paid no attention to the explosion that nearly took his life.

"I'm fine, Chuya arrived in the end."

"Hey, didn't you always want to commit suicide?" Nakahara also curled his lips, "Isn't dying in an explosion just what you want?"

"Although it's not bad to die in the fireworks."

Before Osamu Dazai finished speaking, he saw the girl subconsciously grabbing his wrist as if it was a stress reaction, paused for a moment and then smiled: "But I don't let go, thinking that she might be scared in a place where I can't see her." I don’t want to die if I have to cry.”

Nakahara Nakaya stared at Yakai Riho holding Dazai Osamu's hand, frowned as if he wanted to say something, but after seeing her uneasy look, he smacked his lips and forcibly endured it.

"Let's get out of this place first."

Then the three went to the Armed Detective Agency together, and it was only then that Yakai Riho knew that this place was Yokohama.

Edogawa Ranpo, who seemed to be waiting at the door, shouted angrily when he saw them: "It's too slow!"

There are only a few clerks in the detective agency, and the other members seem to be out on missions.

Edogawa Ranpo led them directly to the reception room.

Mihai Riho found that there were several bags of snacks piled up on the table inside, but they had not been opened, and there was a messy chessboard in the middle, with a half-played chess game on it, and a cup of tea on each side, but it had cooled down.

After several people sat down, the clerk served them tea again and closed the door before leaving.

Then she told all the things that happened in the past few days.

When talking about that world, my throat subconsciously choked up.

"Parallel world."

Dazai's reaction was rather flat.

"Don't you have any other reactions?"

Zhong Yuan also stared at him, very concerned about the fact that the leader of Hong Kong gangsters in that world was Osamu Dazai.

"So what does this have to do with me?"

The other party still looked like he was neither salty nor indifferent and had nothing to do with him.

"Even if that's me in the parallel world, it's not me after all."

Yakai Riho was stunned for a moment by his words that seemed to mean something, and then said softly: "Well, it's different."

"Then let's talk about the situation here."

Ranpo Edogawa put on his glasses and began to sort out the situation so far.

"In this incident, Dazai, Principal Nezu, and I discovered the involvement of the House Rat of Death a long time ago."

"It's just that because of disagreement, the hero can't kill people, and I want to completely kill the danger—that is, the demon Fyodor." Osamu Dazai picked up a black chess piece and turned it carelessly.

"And I chose to cooperate with both parties." Edogawa pushed his eyes in disorder, and the green eyes that entered the reasoning state were extremely calm, "After Keigo Mikai came back, I directly sent the known information to Dazai, and before leaving You fitted the locator he gave me earlier."

"Locator?"

Yakai Riho recalled.

The other party hugged me that evening, was it at that time?

Then subconsciously want to find where on the body.

"You don't need to look for it." Osamu Dazai held the black chess piece and placed it casually on the board, "The locator was discovered by that person long ago and moved to another place."

"However, I was also prepared, so I didn't believe the location of the locator, but revealed the news to Xiongying, and they went to that location to check the situation, maybe there would be some bait that wanted to lure me there, by the way And keep them from bothering me at the real location."

bother what?

Yakai Riho froze for a moment, then thought of what he said before.

Concepts are different.

Then as a hero, it is absolutely impossible to let Osamu Dazai kill the enemy in front of him.

"I determined the true location through hyper-reasoning."

Edogawa Ranpo took over the words and continued: "The mouse of the dead house rescued the enemy alliance mainly for the transmission ability of the black mist. By the way, I was disguised as Midoriya Izuku and sneaked into the school to take you out."

"At the same time, use them as cannon fodder."

Nakahara also remembered the enemies he had encountered when he rushed there before, and then looked at Osamu Dazai with a bad face.

"Hey, is this what you expected?"

"No, although I thought there would be an enemy alliance blocking us on the way, I didn't expect the black organization to attack us there."

Osamu Dazai sighed, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, it was cold inside.

"That demon gave them the false information that 'the nuclear is in our hands' in advance."

"So he thought he could stop it with just the accumulated garbage?"

Zhong Yuanzhong, who felt underestimated, frowned uncomfortably.

"No, neither the Enemy Alliance nor the Black Organization have any intention of going all out."

"One knows the real mission, and the other is only tentative about the intelligence."

Osamu Dazai lay on his back on the sofa, staring at the ceiling with iris-colored eyes.

"That guy didn't expect them to kill us, it just needs one effect."

He turned his gaze to the chessboard scattered with pieces.

"That's—delaying time."

And they did it very well.

And the guy named Sigang Muhang from the enemy alliance may have reached some agreement with Fyodor.

He thought of the time when the other party looked at them with scarlet eyes full of malice while clutching the side of his neck, and murmured nervously——

[Risui is mine, don't meddle in your own business, he will return it to me...]

Then Nakahara, who went into a rage state immediately after being heard, also kicked the wall.

But he didn't say that.

Osamu Dazai glanced at the girl who had stopped crying but still had crying marks in the corner of her eyes, and looked away again.

Anyway, just insignificant people.

There will be no next time.

"During this period of time, the port mafia took a wait-and-see attitude, and occasionally intervened without pain. Bailan's position was uncertain and changed at any time, and he also reserved himself a step back. Pengo Li and Xiongying took a protective attitude. The Rats and the Black Organization are hostile."

Edogawa glanced randomly at the two port mafia cadres on the opposite side. One suddenly took out his mobile phone and looked down to check something with his face unchanged, while the other frowned slightly and did not refute.

Then he continued: "You are the only one who came back from the scene. The other two, one with a core and the other with the ability to communicate with parallel worlds, probably messed up the space in some way on the way back."

"The latest information——" Osamu Dazai raised his head, flipped the phone over, turned the screen to face them, and said with a smile, "Vongola has found Bailan."

And it was in his own base camp, according to the intelligence, the other party did not resist, but looked prepared.

"What is the purpose of the two of them?"

Mihai Riho was a little confused: "What is the purpose of Fyodor's book, and what about Bailan?"

"And what the hell is a book?"

Osamu Dazai put away his phone, said after a moment of silence: "Simply speaking, it is a prop that can change reality."

"As for Bai Lan, according to what you said, I suspect that he wants to obtain the space-time replacement device of that world. He is not satisfied with sharing knowledge with the parallel world in consciousness, but wants to travel through time and space at will."

Although it can be done through nuclear, it is not stable in the end, and it is still in the hands of that devil.

In the end, both of their goals were destroyed by Osamu Dazai of that world.

"Where is the culprit?"

Zhongyuanzhong is also not satisfied with this result.

Since Bai Lan was caught by Pengo Lie in Italy, the right to dispose of it is in their hands.

Compared to this, he cared more about the leader of the House of the Dead they mentioned just now—Fyodor the Demon.

"The monitoring around Xiongying has been destroyed. When Riho was taken away, all the monitoring was eliminated. Although the heroes issued a wanted warrant across the country, there is not even a photo."

Osamu Dazai was not surprised by this result, if the opponent caught him so easily, he wouldn't have to worry so much.

"The current result is that the enemy alliance has been re-captured, or the information was sold by the person who originally rescued them, Bailan was taken away by Peng Lie, and the demon Fyodor is nowhere to be found."

Not a perfect result.

"Compared to these..."

Osamu Dazai looked at the girl who seemed to be digesting the information, and raised the corners of his lips.

"Welcome back, Riho."

Zhongyuan Zhong also loosened the frown between his brows and eased his expression.

"I'm sorry I didn't arrive in time before, I've worked hard these days."

Edogawa Ranpo put the glass beads in his hand on the chessboard, took off his glasses, puffed his mouth and said aggrievedly: "Even if I know it will be fine in the end, I am still very unhappy these days."

"I can't even eat snacks."

Yakai Riho felt that her eyes were getting hot again.

She blinked and smiled.

"I'm back, thank you for all your hard work."

"That's right! Since this is the case, it's just for celebration, let me help you solve it!"

Dazai Osamu raised his voice instantly, and looked at the snacks on the table with interest.

"No! It's mine!"

Edogawa Ranpo instantly opened his hands like a child and hugged the snacks on the table in his arms.

"If it's Riho, I can give it to you."

Yakai Riho: "...No, thank you."

"By the way, can I borrow my mobile phone? I want to report that I'm safe."

"Ah, no need for this, I have already sent the message to your father before."

Dazai waved his hand casually.

Nakahara looked at Osamu Dazai in shock as if he was bullying a child.

"Are you children!?"

"Dazai, how did you become so naive after defecting to Hong Kong gangsters!?"
