365 days of playing the knife

Atsushi Nakajima has been trying to get out of here - a warehouse full of sundries.

But whenever he made any movement, Mr. Dazai, who seemed to be reading a book indifferently, would always notice it immediately, and then a light "Dun-kun" could make him dare not move.

Although Mr. Dazai doesn't look as violent and terrifying as Mr. Kunikida, but Atsushi Nakajima doesn't know why, but he just doesn't dare to make an attempt to resist Mr. Dazai.

So Atsushi Nakajima could only hug his legs and curl himself up together.This action can bring him some sense of security.

As night fell, Atsushi Nakajima was really afraid that the "man-eating tiger" who had been tracking him would appear.And here—he was equally afraid that the retreat that had helped him would be drawn over.

He will not underestimate the tiger's sense of smell. "Man-eating tiger" can chase here from the orphanage, so the little tiger can naturally do the same.

Originally...Obviously they all had a good idea...

Atsushi Nakajima's expression became dazed and helpless in his arms.Although the Five Tigers did not say that he rescued him from the "man-eating tiger".But Atsushi Nakajima did know that it was the Five Tigers who rescued him.

Because before he lost consciousness last night, he heard a tiger roar, which was the familiar roar of a "man-eating tiger".

Apart from the little tiger who is also a tiger, he really can't think of any other reason for being able to save him from the "man-eating tiger".

Haha, it's impossible that he exploded a seed while in a coma and scared the "man-eating tiger" away, right?

And today when he woke up, what he received was pure kindness that he had almost never felt before, without any impurities at all.

In addition, the "man-eating tiger" can't hurt the five tigers.

According to his imagination, after Five Tigers bought a house in his name, he would go to work, serving tea and water, washing dishes and moving bricks. He could do any hard work.

At that time, in addition to working hard to make money to pay the rent, he will also be responsible for cleaning the house, buying vegetables and cooking.

For this kind of thing, he is happy.

——Because, there will be his "place of refuge".

But now, if you accidentally get involved with being a good person...

According to Mr. Kunikida's words, the "man-eating tiger" is a disaster-designated beast.Isn't it easy to be misunderstood for the little tiger who looks so similar to the "man-eating tiger" and is also a tiger?

And even if it proves that the little tiger is not a "man-eating tiger", raising a tiger or something will be defined as an illegal act...

Tie himself said that because of Xiaohu, he rarely went out during the day.

what to do?He didn't go back all day, and it's already dark now, if he came out to look for him according to Xiaohu's sense of smell...

No, no, this kind of thing must not happen!

and so--

What should he do?

Atsushi Nakajima raised his head cautiously, peeking at the black-haired young man who was still sitting where he was reading a book.

Dazai's fluffy black curly short hair slightly blocked Nakajima's sight because of the angle, but Nakajima still had a good memory of Dazai's handsome appearance.Or it can be explained that Dazai himself is hard to forget.

In addition, although the man with a tall figure didn't know why he had to wrap his body with a bandage... Maybe he was injured?But that special point does not prevent the other party from giving people an elegant feeling.

Just like retreating—even if the background is in such a messy place, that kind of temperament can make Atsushi Nakajima feel ashamed of self-harm, and make him realize that they are not in the same world. (However, due to Wu Hutui's personality relationship, this is not so obvious in Wuhutui.)

Atsushi Nakajima thought, maybe apart from being human, they are not the same in any way.

"Atsushi-kun, haven't you read enough?" Dazai suddenly closed the book with a snap, and squinted at Nakajima Atsushi. "Being looked at by a man like this, even me, would feel disgusted." He said so.

Atsushi Nakajima froze, subconsciously apologized twice.

"Don't worry, Dunjun." The man who clearly disliked him just now sighed, raised his hand holding the book, and pressed the not-so-thick back of the book against his own chin, "Tigers are not that scary. No matter what Well, I'm also a member of the "Armed Detective Agency". "

A "member" of the "Armed Detective Agency".

Such a common sentence once again made Atsushi Nakajima realize another difference between himself and Osamu Dazai.

He is just a "vagrant" without any "place of shelter", like an abandoned "wild dog" who can only look for food in the garbage dump.

Atsushi Nakajima lowered his head in embarrassment, trembling and envy that he didn't notice in his tone, "Haha, is that so..."

"It's really amazing... Dazai-san."

Osamu Dazai looked coldly at the teenagers who were curled up again, and didn't intend to say any words of persuasion.He even said in a flat voice at this time, "Dun Jun, do you know?"

"……what?"

"Among the witnesses who came into close contact with tigers—" Dazai Osamu tapped the book in his hand a few times, and there was a soft "da da" sound in this quiet place, following Dazai Osamu's next words , is tantamount to thunder. "Dun Jun is the only human being who is harmless."

"...Why are you saying this all of a sudden, Mr. Dazai?" Atsushi Nakajima's voice was a little stiff.

"Don't you realize what's wrong?" Dazai chuckled.

"Dun-kun, who was the target of the "man-eating tiger", turned out to be the only human who was not injured.It's so strange~"

"..."

"And there's one more thing, Atsu-kun hasn't thought about it carefully." Facing the young man who raised his head and looked at him blankly, Osamu Dazai said, "Why did the so-called poorly run orphanage only drive away Akun-kun?" What about people?"

"...So what are you talking about, Dazai-san." Atsushi Nakajima felt his hands and feet getting cold, "I don't quite understand..."

"Alas..." Osamu Dazai shook his head for some reason, and his kite-colored pupils didn't know whether it was pity or indifference, or nothing at all.

"Do I have to be that clear?" he said.

Following Osamu Dazai's words, the moonlight shining in from outside the warehouse covered the silver-haired boy's body.Atsushi Nakajima's consciousness seemed to be shaken by something, and the sound of his heart beating thumped in his ears.

What did Mr. Dazai just say?Atsushi Nakajima could only see the movement of the other party still saying something, but he couldn't hear anything in his ears, as if he was watching a silent and weird mime.

No, it's not that you can't hear anything.

The violent beating of the heart still existed, and his blood boiled, but his body and consciousness were no longer under his control.

"If someone gets what they want because of their ability—" Osamu Dazai put the book in his wide pocket and stood there with his hands in his pockets, "then there are also people who can't control their abilities and kill themselves.

"You are the only one who is still kept in the dark." A gust of wind blew up the corner of Osamu Dazai's large windbreaker, and his soft black hair also fluttered with the wind, "You are also a "supernatural person". "

"The supernatural being who appeared in the form of a hungry beast——"

It's a pity that these words may no longer be answered by Atsushi Nakajima.

Standing in front of Osamu Dazai is no longer the human Atsushi Nakajima, but a hungry and powerful beast under the moon.

——When the five tigers retreated and sat on Xiaohu and rushed over anxiously, this was what they saw.

Wuhu Tui only saw the back of the man who was avoiding the white tiger's attack, but didn't see the leisurely expression on Dazai Osamu's face, or the chic movements of the first few seconds.Naturally, his first reaction was that it was the same as last night.

Mr. Dun, who has become a white tiger and has no self-awareness, is attacking an "innocent ordinary person".And the black-haired young man, like the man he met last night, has no ability to deal with tigers, so he can only avoid the white tiger's attack like this.

"Xiaohu..." Wuhu stepped back and got off Xiaohu quickly, and said to Xiaohu who had already prepared, "Save people first!"

Dazai, who turned his head slightly when he heard the movement, had no surprise on his expression, as if everything was within his expectations.He also naturally heard Wu Hutui's words, thinking that he is really a good boy as the "victim" Mr. said~.

A boy... Maybe he can't be called a boy yet. The boy who doesn't even look 1.4 meters tall is slender and thin, as if his hands and feet could be broken with a light pinch.

Although the skin that is too fair is not that sickly pale, it still gives people the feeling of malnutrition.Is this kid ten years old?Osamu Dazai wanted to know that the standard for a normal boy at the age of 11 is 1.4 meters tall and 35 kilograms in weight.

The white tiger that Atsushi turned into seemed to have an impression of Xiaohu's act of saving people last night, because he immediately gave up attacking Dazai and set his target on the same kind of tiger.

As a result, the little tiger restrained the white tiger, and Osamu Dazai just stood aside without incident and stopped moving.

And his reaction made Wuhutui immediately realize that something was wrong.Is the other party really an "ordinary person"?

No - if this is an ordinary person, then his concept of the word ordinary must be renewed.

The fighting instinct in Wu Hutui's body gave him a very bad feeling of being calculated, and he subconsciously shouted at Xiaohu, "Li, get out of there...!"

Hearing this, Osamu Dazai smiled.As if he had finally had enough, he stretched out both hands.Because the two tigers suppressed each other, Osamu Dazai was given an extremely easy opportunity at this time, and he touched the heads of the two white tigers one by one.

——The next moment, the ferocious hungry beast disappeared, and Mr. Dun, whom Wu Hutui knew, came back.

Xiaohu was stunned, the original movement of pressing down on Baihu almost fell to the ground out of thin air because of Atsushi Nakajima's shrinking figure.But even so, it immediately obeyed Wu Hutui's order, took Atsushi Nakajima and threw him on its back, and retreated to Wuhutui's side.

Osamu Dazai blinked unexpectedly at this time, and let out a soft sound in his throat, "Huh?"

The Five Tigers looked at Osamu Dazai vigilantly, his immature face was full of timidity suitable for his age, but also calmness that did not match him.

Ferocious beasts, young children.It's really an interesting scene.

"I suggest you don't run away." Osamu Dazai quickly reacted and said with a smile.

Wuhu Tui's hand that was attached to Xiaohu's body trembled, because the first thought that came to his mind just now was indeed "escape".

"That's right," another voice sounded from behind Wuhutui, and at the same time Wuhutui felt the aura of several humans suddenly appearing behind him, "If you think you can leave our "Armed Detective Agency"—"

Before Kunikida could finish his words, there was an inappropriate whimpering sound in the quiet warehouse.Realizing that he would never escape, Wu Hutui wiped away the tears that were not under his control. He clung to Xiaohu in fear, trying to find courage from Xiaohu. "Okay, so scary..."

The aura on Kunikida's body—maybe it could be said to be murderous, was all aimed at him.The fierce tone, attitude, and he remembered what his brother once told him, "Xiaohu can't go to the world casually. If he is discovered, he will be caught in the zoo. At that time, Xiaohu will lose his freedom."

Now being discovered by this group of strangers... people who still feel very scary... that Xiaohu...

Tiger...

For some reason, Wuhu Tui cried even more pitifully.

Everyone in the warehouse fell silent, this development was absolutely unexpected to them.

Osamu Dazai stabbed Kunikida coldly, "You scared the kid to tears, Kunikida-kun."

The author has something to say: Congratulations to Kunikida-kun for achieving the achievement of crying and retreating.

"If anyone gets what they want because of their abilities—"

"There are also people who kill themselves because they cannot control their abilities.

"Only you are still kept in the dark."

"You are also a "supernatural being". "

"The supernatural being who appeared in the form of a hungry beast——"
