Chapter 186 The moment of social death
Chapter 186 The moment of social death
Harry and Draco walked side by side, tidying up as they walked. When they looked up, they were surprised to find that everyone's eyes were focused on them.
This surprised them both and made them feel puzzled. They were used to such intimate behavior and had no idea how much of a shock it would bring to a group of people living in such a rigid and dogmatic environment.
There wasn't anything out of the ordinary, actually. It was just that everyone present was different. Even Kenji Miyazawa could sense the strange atmosphere flowing through their body language and eye contact... As expected of a Westerner, he's a bit open-minded...
Kunikida Doppo was a bit confused: Why do these two look like minors? Isn't that a bad sign... What if this is just their habit? I heard that kind of marriage alliances happen abroad...
Draco and Harry were confused: Why are they looking at us like that? Why aren't they moving? Are we there yet?
"Have we arrived at the meeting room?" Draco asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Well...it's almost there, not far ahead." Kunikida Doppo was relatively calm and answered in a calm tone.
When they finally walked into the spacious conference room, they had just sat down when they saw Nakajima Atsushi carefully walk in with a pot of hot tea.
Miss Haruno Kirako was not here today, so Nakajima Atsushi volunteered to make tea for everyone.
Dazai Osamu stared quietly at the snow-white wall in front of him, and saw the four big words "Bungo Stray Dogs" slowly appearing on it.
For some reason, an indescribable feeling of unease came over me.
It was incredibly strange... It was as if a strong aura of death was quietly surrounding him. Yet, he actually felt somewhat repulsed by it?
Although he was full of doubts in his heart, Dazai Osamu tried hard to suppress this strange feeling and stared intently at the picture on the white wall.
"Huh? It's me!" Nakajima Atsushi looked at his slightly sloppy appearance on the screen and couldn't help but touch his nose shyly.
He never expected that he would become the protagonist of the animation, which made him feel both surprised and nervous.
Dazai Osamu and Edogawa Ranpo exchanged a glance, a smile flickering in their eyes. They knew that Atsushi was the so-called protagonist. And from now on, the plot would revolve around him.
Dazai Osamu stared at the screen, his lips curled up slightly in a mysterious smile. His eyes seemed to be filled with an inextricable black mud, dark and boundless.
The protagonist... He wondered in his heart, what kind of story will this protagonist experience?
As the animation played, they relived the process of Nakajima Atsushi joining the detective agency. Everyone had a smile on their face as they recalled every little detail of the past.
However, when the scene cuts to the train explosion, their expressions turn serious.
Izumi Kyoka... Shima Atsushi's heart couldn't help but tighten. He could see the kindness and helplessness deep in this girl's heart.
She didn't want to hurt anyone, but was forced by fate to embark on a difficult path.
Looking at the helpless look of Izumi Kyoka on the screen, Nakajima Atsushi felt sorry for this little sister.
He secretly vowed that if he saw her, he would protect her and let her do what she wanted.
Nakajima Atsushi is not perfect, but he has a kind heart and is willing to empathize with others.
Even if I am covered in bruises.
......
"This man...is the gravity user of the port mafia." Kunita Ki Dopo said solemnly.
Hearing this, Nakajima Atsushi couldn't help but ask curiously, "Gravity user? What is that?" He had just joined the Armed Detective Agency not long ago and was not very clear about these things.
Kunitagi Doppo explained, "He's one of the five most famous leaders of the Port Mafia. He's called the Graviton because his ability allows him to manipulate gravity."
Nakajima Atsushi widened his eyes in surprise: "How amazing!"
At this moment, Kunita Mu Dupo suddenly seemed to think of something, looked at Dazai Osamu beside him, and said with a slight twitch of his mouth: "I think you seem to be quite familiar with him..."
Hearing this, Nakajima Atsushi turned to look at Dazai Osamu and asked curiously, "Mr. Dazai, do you know each other?"
Dazai Osamu's face darkened and he said unhappily, "I don't know him!"
Nakajima Atsushi scratched his head in confusion: "But I see you two have a pretty good relationship, aren't you just friends?"
Upon hearing this, Dazai Osamu vomited exaggeratedly and said weakly, "Who would be friends with a black little slug like that? We are sworn enemies, sworn enemies!"
After saying that, he lay dejectedly on the table, looking as if he had lost all desire to live.
Nakajima Atsushi looked confused: "What's wrong with Mr. Dazai?"
Kunita Mu Dubu shook his head helplessly: "Ignore him, this guy is having another attack."
However, Nakajima Atsushi's words dealt a heavy blow to Dazai Osamu, making him feel even worse, like a disobedient dog.
Seeing the two of them getting along, everyone's expressions became more and more strange, except for Ranpo, Draco and Harry.
Is this an illusion? These two...are kind of cute...
Naomi Tanizaki and Akiko Yosano looked at each other knowingly.
But later on, no one cared about the few things that Dazai Osamu and the Gravity User had to say.
As the plot progressed, everyone's expression became serious.
Edogawa Ranpo and Dazai Osamu figured out the whole story in their minds, and their faces became solemn.
House of Dead Rats, Fyodor...
"So our world is in your place, similar to anime. That's why you know so much about us." Kunikida Doppo suddenly realized, but was still a little confused and felt it was unreal.
"It doesn't matter. It's just a representation of the world. How do you know that a book you're reading isn't a microcosm of the world?" Harry asked calmly.
Kunikida Doppo was speechless. He had indeed brought trouble upon himself.
But they should now think about how to deal with the next situation.
"That's what's going to happen next," Draco said. "After that, there's Season 2, the movie, Season 3, Season 4, and Season 5. How about we take a break and watch the rest?"
He hesitated. There was actually a lot of information in the second part, but... he felt that Dazai Osamu might be very... sad...
Do you really want to expose such a broken heart once again?
Dazai's heart skipped a beat, and he stood up alertly, looking around. What was this ominous premonition? So disgusting...
Ranpo pushed his glasses up. Dazai's? Wait, he seems to know.
"Ranpo-sama, do you think you don't need to rest?" Dazai is not such a fragile person.
"Okay then." Draco glanced at Dazai Osamu, and Dazai Osamu caught the glance sharply.
Did he offend Draco? Dazai completely forgot that he had just stared at Draco with malicious eyes. He was still thinking hard.
Could this be his dark history? Wait, does he have a dark history? Not at all.
"Who is this person?" Nakajima Atsushi looked at the first man who appeared curiously, his heart full of doubts.
He didn't notice at all that Dazai Osamu's smile had frozen, as if he had been hit by something.
"Odasaku..." Dazai Osamu murmured to himself, with an unconcealable sadness in his voice.
At the same time, everyone stared intently at the screen, looking at Dazai Osamu with a dead look in his eyes, their hearts filled with disbelief.
This person was completely different from the Dazai Osamu they knew, which made them extremely surprised and confused.
The images on the screen continued to play, the atmosphere became increasingly heavy, and everyone fell into deep thought.
"I joined the Mafia because I was looking forward to what would happen. The people here expose violence, death, instinct, and desire nakedly. If I stay near them, I can see the true nature of human beings more closely. And then... I think, in this way, I can find a reason to live."
——"Let me wake up from the dream of this decadent world."
——"Stand on the side of saving people."
——"If both sides are the same, then choose to save people. Save the weak, protect orphans. Justice and evil may not make much difference to you, but this way, it will be better."
——"How do you know?"
"I just know it, better than anyone else."
——"Only before death do people realize that they live to redeem themselves... Indeed... That's right..."
"This..." Nakajima Atsushi widened his eyes. He couldn't imagine that Dazai Osamu had ever experienced such a cruel thing.
He must be a very good friend of Dazai-san, right? So good that Dazai-san was willing to listen to him and try to step into the twilight instead of staying in darkness forever.
Kunikida Doppo muttered to himself, "So that's how it is. I've heard of the name of the Double Black." But he didn't expect that Dazai was one of the famous Double Black.
His eyes are complicated. This guy Dazai Osamu...
Yosano Akiko looked at Mori Ogai inside, her face darkening. "Tsk, this scumbag. He'll take advantage of anything. He's wary of Dazai Osamu, but he won't truly let go."
Although Fukuzawa Yukichi knew about Mori Ogai's moral character, he had no idea that this person could be even more shameless. Oda Sakunosuke, he remembered this young man, what a pity...
Ranpo also remembered that he had reminded him at that time, but he also noticed the dead silence in the man's eyes.
Suddenly I lost my appetite... Ranpo put down the potato chips in his hand. For the first time, he felt that these potato chips were not very tasty.
Dazai Osamu's face turned very ugly. He stared at the screen fiercely, as if he wanted to rush in and erase that memory.
But because of Odasaku's existence, he felt complicated.
"Go on," he said through gritted teeth.
"This should put you in a better mood, Dazai." Ranpo covered his raised mouth with a snack. Hat-kun and Dazai, tsk tsk tsk, Dazai is really getting away with it.
Still coming? Isn't Atsushi the protagonist? Dazai's face darkened. He couldn't possibly be the protagonist, could he? A mocking smile curled up at the corner of Dazai's mouth.
This world is so disgusting...
"A coward who touches cotton is afraid of even happiness. He will get hurt when he touches cotton, and sometimes he will even get hurt by happiness." Draco whispered.
Dazai Osamu's body stiffened, but he pretended nothing had happened.
The Armed Detective Agency is not a group of people who can't tolerate any injustice. They accept Dazai Osamu's past well.
Even Kunikida Doppo only frowned slightly when he saw Dazai Osamu shooting at the corpse, simply thinking that the action was unnecessary.
Seeing Nakahara Chuuya appear, Yosano Akiko sighed. "The Port Mafia's gravity user is quite a beauty from this point on. She looks perfectly at home in women's clothing."
She subconsciously glanced at Dazai Osamu, only to find a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Huh? No way? This expression... could it really be true? She looked away, her pupils trembling.
She was just shipping a couple, could it be true?
I watched it again with the idea of discovering an affair, bah, discovering a beautiful relationship, and as expected, Yosano Akiko discovered a lot.
Although Mori Ogai did nothing, the only good thing he did was to introduce Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya to each other.
Yosano Akiko lowered her head, and Kuku was chatting with Tanizaki Naomi via typing.
Texas Chainsaw: That's just like that. It's just a 21cm height difference, they're sworn enemies, Dazai wants Chuuya Nakahara to be his dog, and Chuuya is ranked before the end of the world in the six-step, three-step ladder. That's it? What's so good about it? I don't understand.
My Brother is Mine: Yes, wasn’t it that we decided to be together forever when we were 15, wasn’t it that we held hands for the first time we worked together, wasn’t it that when we met again for the first time after four years, even though we had the ability to escape, we still had to provoke Mr. Zhongyuan, wasn’t it that we trusted each other unconditionally?
Texas Chainsaw: Miss Inner Eight is really too delicate. What a blessing, Dazai!
My brother is mine: Diamonds can only be polished with diamonds~So did they polish them?
Texas Chainsaw: What that scumbag said was disgusting, but Naomi’s understanding of it was very novel [Like.jpg].
They all subconsciously ignored and avoided the identity of Zhongyuan Zhongye Huang Tuba.
Tanizaki Junichiro and Nakajima Atsushi sat next to Tanizaki Naomi and Yosano Akiko respectively. Seeing that the expressions of Tanizaki Naomi and Yosano Akiko gradually became strange and hideous, they couldn't help but tremble.
Why did they have to see this? How are they supposed to face Mr. Dazai?
But they were not very happy afterwards.
"Tsk, these outsiders didn't even ask before taking action." Tanizaki Junichiro frowned when he saw the coffee shop manager was injured.
Seeing his favorite coffee shop downstairs being destroyed by ignorant outsiders, Ranpo stopped eating snacks and said with unhappiness in his tone. "I hate idiots."
"Don't worry, they will never have the chance to set foot in Yokohama again~" Dazai Osamu hummed a strange song with a vague tone.
After seeing the communist virus, everyone's faces became gloomy, even Edogawa Ranpo was no exception.
The Rat of the Dead House, right? Pushkin, right?
hehe...
