After the group wear, I became the group darling of the big guys

Elhaisen followed the woman into the banquet hall and observed the people at the banquet. Many women with male companions also stole glances at him because of his unique temperament.

Alhaisen, who was already used to being the center of attention, did not even glance at these women. After observing the various people in the banquet hall, Alhaisen found that the social and conversational styles of the people here were no different from those of the scholars in the House of the Decrees, all of them beating around the bush.

But...Elhaisen's gaze stayed on the corner of the banquet hall.

Walnut leaned lazily against the wall, chatting with the two adult men beside her, talking about something.

【Private chat】

[Elhaisen: Walnut? Why are you here? ]

[Hu Tao: I came here on a business trip because of a commission from the detective agency. Why are you here too? Are you also on a business trip for a mission?]

[Elhaisen: They are from the Black Organization. Their request is to kill Kujo Hidehiro and take the USB drive back.]

[Hu Tao: You may not be able to complete the task of killing Kujo Eihiro, after all, this is my mission target. As for the USB drive, you can take it if you want, it is not within the scope of protection. ]

【Elhaisen: OK, I understand. 】

[Walnut: I will create opportunities for you, you'd better hurry up. Leave as few handles and clues as possible, this Dazai Osamu is not easy to deal with. Happy cooperation~]

[Elhaisen: It's been a pleasure working with you. I owe you a favor this time. Next time you need help, just come to me.]

【Walnut: That’s a must.】

No one knew when Toru Amuro disappeared in the banquet hall. Elhaisen didn't care and didn't intend to wait for him to appear before discussing any plans.

"Sir, what's your name?" The female companion took Elhaisen's arm, leaned close to the young man's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Sorry." Elhaisen was not the kind of person who would just throw things away after using them, but out of polite thanks, he reminded her to leave quickly before leaving.

On the other side, Kurumi came out from her little corner and waved to the young man with iris-colored eyes: "Dazai-kun, come here."

Dazai Osamu raised his eyebrows and showed his shining smile to the female special attack. He knelt on one knee and held Kurumi's hand. His face seemed to have a shining special effect, making it particularly hard for people to refuse.

"Beautiful lady, do you want to die with me?"

Although they were reluctant to refuse, as long as they heard the content of his words clearly, the girls' originally passionate hearts would instantly cool down.

"Do you really want to see the other side?" Kurumi bent down and approached Dazai Osamu. The plum blossom pattern in the girl's red eyes seemed to be quietly turning. "I can take you there."

"What's the point of going alone? Beautiful lady, are you interested in joining me?" Dazai Osamu implicitly rejected Kurumi and continued to invite Kurumi to commit suicide for love.

"Those who fool life and death will only be fooled by life and death." Walnut said with a smile. She raised her head and looked towards Dazai Osamu's shoulder, and her eyes met with a translucent young man.

Oda Sakunosuke, who was seen by people for the first time after becoming a demon, floated to the side hesitantly.

"Yin and Yang have order, but fate is unpredictable. Death is unpredictable, but it also has its rules." Walnut shook her head. "Provoking death is the most unwise choice."

"So, the lady is still unwilling." Dazai Osamu stood up from the ground, shaking his head in disappointment.

"Maybe you can look back. She had short reddish-brown hair and was wearing a windbreaker... It's really similar to what you're wearing now."

The banquet hall was filled with noisy sounds; the sounds of music, chatting, and the clinking of glasses weaved a world of decadence and extravagance.

Kurumi's voice was drowned out. It wasn't loud, but it was just within the range that Dazai Osamu could hear clearly.

The young man, who was originally smiling, suddenly became murderous. His handsome face was expressionless, and his pair of extremely beautiful iris-colored eyes seemed to be filled with the blood of a sea of ​​blood and corpses.

As the girl described, a familiar figure appeared in Dazai Osamu's mind. His heart trembled for a moment, his pupils shrank, and he could only hear the sound of his heartbeat.

"Eh? You're wearing the same thing as me? Ms. Kurumi, are you serious? I'm a handsome guy." The teasing words that came out of his own mouth were particularly vague. Dazai Osamu felt like he was covered in a huge glass cup, and everything he heard and saw was chaos.

"Look back and you'll know, won't you?" Walnut smiled particularly happily, "Wow, you're really scary now."

Look back, just look back and you will know whether the person behind you is him.

These four words were like a nightmare, drilling straight into Dazai Osamu's brain.

No, that's not right. Odasaku had been dead for many years. Even if he really appeared behind him, Dazai Osamu, who witnessed his death with his own eyes, should have doubted and questioned, instead of just believing the words of a person he didn't trust.

What did Kurumi do to him.

Since attending the banquet until now, he has not touched any drink or food. Although he was joking around, he always followed Kunikida Doppo. When did Kurumi give him the drugs?

Ever since Kurumi joined the detective agency, Dazai Osamu has been testing her, using verbal traps and observing her actions. Dazai Osamu is certain that Kurumi herself has secrets.

It's not surprising to have secrets. A small number of people in the detective agency have secrets, but the key is whether Walnut can really obey the president's orders and dispatches?

Did she really join the detective agency because she couldn't control her abilities?

Dazai Osamu was particularly excited about the mystery surrounding Kurumi, and what was even more coincidental was that Edogawa Ranpo, the only famous detective in the Armed Detective Agency who could see through everything, happened to be away during this period.

Coincidences one after another weave a trap that may be aimed at the detective agency.

Finding out Kurumi's purpose and intention became Dazai Osamu's top priority.

Following the voice in his heart, Dazai Osamu turned around and before he could even see the legs of the person behind him clearly, he was knocked unconscious by a knife.

"You guys at the Armed Detective Agency are so unreliable... Can you really protect me?" Kujo Hidehiro frowned and asked in a low voice to Kunikida Doppo, who had been concentrating on taking notes nearby.

"Please rest assured, the Armed Detective Agency will definitely protect your personal safety, right Dazai." No one responded to Kunikida Dopo's question. He turned around and found that the two people who were just leaning against the wall and chatting were nowhere to be seen.

Kunikida Doppo didn't care much about Dazai Osamu. After all, this man was elusive all day long and always brought back extremely useful information. They were really anxious several times in the beginning, but now they are used to it.

But Kurumi is a newcomer to the detective agency. She is not very proficient in her business. What matters is that she has good martial arts and a pure and kind heart. But this is not a reason for Dazai Osamu to take her away without saying a word!

"Damn Dazai......!" Kunikida Doppo felt like he was going to break these 372nd pair of glasses out of anger.

Even though I was very angry, I still had to do my job. I couldn't stop or turn around and leave.

Kunikida Dopo suppressed his anger and bowed 90 degrees: "Mr. Kujo, please rest assured that your safety will be entrusted to me. I will not let anyone get close to you!"
