[Wen Hao] I worked hard to restore the health of the protagonist group

Xie Shuyi's fingers tightened increasingly, as if he wanted to crush Dun's neck.

He could clearly feel the pulsation of the artery in Dun's neck, and the rhythm of the beating gradually became slower and weaker as time went by.

Every beat was like a countdown of life. Dun's body began to struggle violently. He tried to break free from Jie Shuyi's restraints, but Jie Shuyi's strength far exceeded his.

Dun's face turned pale, his lips lost their color, and his eyes gradually became dull.

However, Xie Shuyi turned a blind eye to all this.

If Lian Dun can inspire such strong hatred, then it means that other people in the Armed Detective Agency can do so as well.

The sound of chaotic footsteps came from afar and gradually approached. Jie Shuyi did not look back, but he could guess the identity of the person coming from the alley.

"Jie Shuyi! What are you doing!" Mr. Kunikida's angry voice came.

Xie Shuyi twitched his lips, as if he had just realized something, and turned around in surprise, "Huh? Why are you here?"

Xie Shuyi suddenly withdrew his hand and fell to the ground as if he was exhausted. The long period of suffocation made his throat swollen. He tried to breathe deeply, but...

Every breath he took was labored, his face turned purple, and he curled up on the ground in pain.

Everyone in the Armed Detective Agency was shocked when they saw this scene. From Dun's condition, it was not difficult to tell that Xie Shuyi might have just killed him.

If they had come a little later, wouldn't Dun...

Kunikida walked forward quickly. He wanted to check on Atsushi's condition, but Jie Shuyi took half a step to the right, blocking Kunikida's path.

"Is Mr. Kunikida angry?" Xie Shuyi raised his head with a bright smile on his face.

He spread his hands innocently, his expression full of grievance, "But it was the idiot who wanted to kill me, I was scared... What's wrong with me resisting?"

Xie Shuyi took half a step forward and forced Kunikida back. His eyebrows were curved with a smile, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"We clearly agreed on this at the beginning. Why don't you just stop me and be a bystander until the situation is resolved?"

He pointed at Dun on the ground and raised his voice, questioning, "So you lied to me? You actually wanted to kill me a long time ago?"

At this time, other people from the detective agency also came over. Yosano ignored Jie Shuyi's obstruction and walked straight to Dun to treat the latter.

As soon as she got closer, she heard Dun's murmurs.

"No...it's not like that..."

Although he was having difficulty breathing, Khan was still obsessed with saying something. His body was still spasming uncontrollably, but he struggled to raise his fingertips and point them at Jie Shuyi.

When he looked at Yosano again, his eyes were filled with disappointment and anger.

He wanted to say something, but his swollen throat prevented him from speaking.

Yosano held his wrist soothingly, "Okay, I know what you're going to say, just be quiet."

Ranpo's gaze lingered briefly on Dun's fingers, and then he looked up at Jie Shuyi.

Xie Shuyi smiled brightly, and he was completely different from the decadent, fragile and brittle person he had met in the underground base a few days ago.

He didn't think a person could change so much in a short period of time.

It can only be Jie Shuyi who is acting.

Was it the night before yesterday or right now?

But no matter which time it is performed, it is telling one thing.

Xie Shuyi still concealed some things.

Jinghua walked to the corner and lifted the head of the person lying against the wall. When she saw clearly that the person was Nakahara Chuuya, her expression was obviously stunned.

She was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at Jie Shuyi, her voice full of confusion, "Why did you... kill Zhongye?"

Jinghua raised her head and repeated loudly, "Why did you kill Chuuya?!"

Everyone's attention was drawn to her words and they all looked towards the corner. Even though most of Chuuya's body was hidden in the shadows and his features could not be seen clearly, they could still vaguely make out what he was wearing.

Most of them have seen Nakahara Chuuya, and even if they don't pay special attention to him, they will not find it difficult to recognize him.

When it was confirmed that it was Nakahara Chuuya, everyone in the Armed Detective Agency looked at Jie Shuyi with shock, their eyes full of disbelief.

After being looked at like this many times, Xie Shuyi got used to it.

He spread his hands, full of the innocence of a victim, "I want to kill Dun, he is in my way, since he is in the way, what's wrong with me killing him?"

Perhaps he said it too casually and no one present believed him.

Although Nakahara Chuuya is a member of the Port Mafia, Xie Shuyi has had dealings with the other party on many occasions during his time in Yokohama.

Even in the incident of rescuing Jie Shuyi from Joker, Nakahara Chuuya also played a role.

Obviously, although their relationship was not good, they were friends who could talk to each other.

Just for such a random reason...

Just kill him?

Jinghua clenched her lowered fist tightly, the phone was almost deformed in her palm, her face was expressionless, but her heart was already boiling with anger.

She could clearly open the phone and use her supernatural power by just moving her fingers, but after looking at Jie Shuyi, her fingers seemed to be frozen there as if they had taken root, and she showed no signs of moving.

When she was in the Port Mafia, although she was used as a killing weapon by Ozaki Kouye, she also felt warmth.

Nakahara Chuuya...

He is obviously a very good person.

He shouldn't have died like this.

Xie Shuyi tilted his head and stared into Jinghua's eyes without blinking, "What a big reaction, but why are you so angry? It's obviously just an insignificant person who died...that's all."

His tone was so nonchalant, as if human life was of little importance to him.

Even friends and partners you know are essentially people who can be killed at any time.

At this time, Dun had also recovered. He stood up, holding his chest.

"Jie Shuyi, do you dare to repeat to everyone what you just said to me?" His cold voice sounded from behind Jie Shuyi.

Xie Shuyi frowned slightly, turned around impatiently, and looked at Dun with murderous eyes.

"I should have killed you sooner," he said.

Yosano took a step forward and raised his hand to block Atsushi behind him.

Ranpo asked in a low voice, "What did you just talk about?"

Xie Shuyi was silent for a moment, then licked his lips and said, "It's not a big deal."

He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Ranpo with a smile in his eyes, "The Death Note does have the ability to revive the dead, but as you guessed, it can only be used once. The condition for using it once is because it requires the life of the user."

After hearing Jie Shuyi's explanation, everyone was stunned, even Dun was stunned.

"Thanks to my special abilities, I can't die, but I'm also very afraid of trouble. That's why the future world war will break out 36 years earlier. But..." Xie Shuyi raised his eyes slightly and stared at the person in front of him with interest.

"Since I'm willing to sacrifice so much for a peaceful life in the future, it's not hard to see that I don't want to die."

Xie Shuyi waved his fingertips and the notes suddenly appeared in his palm.

"From the beginning to the end, I never thought of erasing the name on it." He raised his head with a bright smile on his face.

"Before...I always lied to you~"

......

As early as when he said the first sentence, Ranpo's brows were already deeply furrowed.

Xie Shuyi has told too many lies in the past two days, and Ranbu can't tell the truth from the lies.

He wanted to find out the truth through reasoning, but every time he was close to grasping the light in his mind, he was blocked by a blank barrier.

It seemed like something was preventing Ranpo from getting an answer.

Ranpo simply stopped thinking about it and relied on his intuition to judge the truth of the anecdotes in the book.

"If you really think we are in the way, you could have killed us all quietly in the underground base the night before last. Why wait until today?"

He took half a step forward and met Jie Shuyi's half-smile, but he was not afraid at all.

"If you really want to kill Dun, with your strength, I'm afraid Dun won't be able to wait for us to rescue him."

He raised his hand and poked Jie Shuyi's chest, tapping him hard twice.

"You are still lying to me now. What is it that you have to hide from us?"

Ranpo's voice was not loud, and his tone could even be described as calm, but his questioning was full of power, and the unconditional trust he displayed made Jie Shuyi panic-stricken.

Xie Shuyi took half a step back, looked away, but said extremely bad words.

"What are you pretending for? You were able to rush here at the same time as Dun. Aren't you worried that I will kill Dun after his sneak attack fails?" Xie Shuyi raised his chin slightly and looked at everyone with a look full of sarcasm.

"You said I kept it from you, but you didn't believe me at all. After all, we were on two different paths from the beginning. If it weren't for Mr. Dazai, you would have died at my hands the first time you met me."

Ranpo looked at him quietly. Although his expression did not change at all, Jie Shuyi still caught a trace of sadness in his eyes.

What Xie Shuyi said was really too harsh. Even though Ranpo knew that Xie Shuyi was deliberately pushing them away, he couldn't help feeling uncomfortable the moment he heard it.

Ranpo's eyes gradually drooped, and even the fingers that were poking at Jie Shuyi's chest lost their strength.

He had tried everything he could do and say.

But Jie Shuyi was not willing to let them share the burden at all.

or...

In fact, it is really as Xie Shuyi said.

The light in Ranpo's eyes dimmed instantly. Perhaps all this was just his wishful thinking.

For Xie Shuyi, their existence has been a burden from beginning to end.

And the story between Xie Shuyi and the Armed Detective Agency was full of lies from beginning to end.

The lie was so true that even Ranpo couldn't tell it apart.

"We came here because Ranpo discovered that Atsushi wanted to hurt you. You have never been on guard against us. We are afraid that you will get hurt, so we rushed here."

Kunikida adjusted his glasses, his voice was very low, and his tone didn't sound like an explanation, but rather like the decisive words before severing the relationship.

"Just like you have risked everything for the Armed Detective Agency countless times, we are also on your side. No matter before or now, you just never believed it."

Kunikida looked at Jie Shuyi deeply. He had a lot to say, but in the end he just asked that question.

"You...were all the things you said that night really lies?"

Xie Shuyi pulled the corner of his mouth and asked, "What else? If I wasn't afraid that if I killed you, Mr. Dazai would be angry, would I be lying to you?"

There was a sound of a car braking suddenly at the entrance of the alley. Jie Shuyi subconsciously looked sideways and saw Dazai just getting out of the driver's seat.

The latter had no expression on his face and no one knew how long he had been listening here.

Dazai slammed the car door, put his hands in his windbreaker pockets, and strode towards the alley.

His eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one, and when they stopped on Chuuya, Dazai lowered his eyes slightly. Even though he knew that Chuuya would be resurrected in the future, he still felt a stuffy feeling in his heart at this moment.

He looked up at Jie Shuyi.

"Really? Xiao Shuyi didn't kill everyone because of me. I feel honored."
