"Ah, yes, I am just as you said, incompetent and without any strengths. No matter who you ask, I am a piece of trash in society. But even so, I have not given up on myself and am still alive!"

He threw out all the words in one go. The boy's words were very sincere, and every word was full of self-deprecation, yet full of longing for life.

"Not bad, Atsushi-kun, you have surpassed your acting skills and successfully transformed yourself into a loser." Dazai Osamu watched the scene with a smile on his face.

Xie Shuyi frowned slightly. He did not deny Nakajima Atsushi's cowardice, but he admired Nakajima Atsushi's calmness in facing life.

Although he looks like a loser on the surface, his strong heart will turn him into an invincible warrior sooner or later.

"Dun...?" There was a hint of seriousness in Jie Shuyi's eyes.

He is a very interesting person.

Can be cultivated.

Maybe he is also good at taking care of children, so I can let him take care of Yukisuke in the future.

Xie Shuyi had a stern face and looked very serious, but his thoughts were drifting further and further away.

"So! Let's throw away the bombs and stuff! Let's go find a job together!" Nakajima Atsushi was so excited that he forgot about the danger and ran towards the robbers holding the stack of newspapers.

Very good, he probably...forgot the setting of delivering newspapers?

The robber didn't seem to have expected his reaction. His ferocious expression froze and his body leaned back uncontrollably, trying to avoid contact with Nakajima Atsushi.

"No...I'm not looking for a job..."

The hand holding the remote control moved slightly backwards, and the robber was lazy for a moment.

"Now! Kunikida-kun!" Dazai shouted.

"I know! Supernatural powers! The lone poet!"

Kunikida took a pen and wrote quickly on the notebook named "Ideal", then he tore off the page very quickly and held the page between his two fingers.

"Wire gun!"

With a flash of dazzling white light, the ordinary piece of white paper in Kunikida's hand turned into a steel wire gun.

The robber's face showed panic, "Oops!"

Unfortunately it was too late.

The shot from the steel wire gun knocked off the bomb button in his hand, and the pain in his hand made the robber cry out in pain.

"Catch him quickly! Kunikida-kun!" Dazai Osamu had stood up and did not continue hiding. Jie Shuyi was standing behind him, watching the scene silently.

But his eyes couldn't help but glance at the tied girl.

Looking at the bomb tied around her waist, curiosity flashed in his eyes. This big drama should be aimed at Dun's joining assessment, so is this bomb real?

He pursed his lips, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

At this point the incident had been resolved. The robber was pinned down by Kunikida-kun and was completely under his control, with no chance of resistance.

Nakajima Atsushi breathed a sigh of relief and sat limply on the side. Seeing that the assessment was over, Xie Shuyi also planned to leave.

But just as he put his hand on the door handle, he suddenly heard the sound of fierce fighting behind him. When he turned around, he saw that the robber who had been suppressed had stood up at some point.

He struggled to break free from Kunikida's restraints and took the bomb remote control button from his hands again.

Because the change was so rapid, Xie Shuyi couldn't tell for a moment whether the current scene was real or just acting.

"How dare you look down on me! Really! There's always something twisted inside you psychics!"

Unfortunately, there was no time for Jie Shuyi to continue making judgment. As the robber's crazy words fell, the man's fingertips pressed the red button on the remote control.

The bomb tied to the girl began to count down, and Jie Shuyi inevitably frowned.

will die.

If the bomb explodes, everyone here will die.

What a joke! Isn't this an assessment? Isn't this acting?!

"It will explode in 30 seconds!" Nakajima Atsushi was the closest to the bomb, and he looked at the rapidly jumping numbers on it with fear.

Kunikida tried to go forward to help, but was tackled to the ground by the robber.

Xie Shuyi looked at Nakajima Atsushi, who was still standing there stiffly and unable to move, and knew that the young man was frightened out of his mind.

He almost subconsciously wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by Dazai Osamu.

He turned around in astonishment, "Mr. Dazai!"

He wanted to ask the reason, but in the current situation any second would be a waste of time. Jie Shuyi shook off Dazai Osamu's hand with force. Even though his reaction was very quick, these few seconds were enough for a lot of things to happen.

When he turned his head again, the boy he thought was cowardly was curled up on the ground.

Dun held the bomb tightly in his arms. Although he was shaking with fear, he still held the bomb tightly and was unwilling to let go.

Such a contradiction.

Jie Shuyi calculated the time and found that there were only five seconds left.

Without any hesitation, he said, "Supernatural power! Healing!"

A dazzling light began to rise in his hands, and he ran towards Nakajima Atsushi with almost overdrawn strength. In the last second of the countdown, he touched Nakajima Atsushi's body.

But the next second, the explosion did not happen.

Xie Shuyi was stunned for a moment, then he reacted suddenly. He turned his head and met Dazai Osamu's gentle gaze. In an instant, he understood everything.

He withdrew his hand in an attempt to hide his mistake, and his supernatural power disappeared. He scratched his head in disappointment and pretended to be very busy.

Dazai Osamu still smiled gently, and his fiery gaze made it impossible for Jie Shuyi to ignore it.

"What?" He raised his head and didn't look into Dazai's eyes.

"Xiao Yi-chan, now you are also concerned about the lives of strangers." His tone was not servile at all, and he spoke gently, full of satisfaction with his son's maturity.

"Don't think too much. I just don't want anyone to die here."

This statement sounded more like tsundere.

"Oh~" Dazai Osamu nodded, showing that he trusted his words, but his expression clearly showed that he didn't believe it at all.

Xie Shuyi did not intend to explain. He looked ahead and saw Kunikida-kun and the so-called robber surrounding Nakajima Atsushi.

It was a peaceful scene, as if telling him that everything that had just happened was an assessment from beginning to end.

The tied-up girl also jumped up and laughed at this moment, bouncing among the three people. It was such a peaceful and happy scene that Jie Shuyi couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

He wasn't being arrogant, he was telling the truth.

He just didn't want anyone to die in this place...
