[Wen Ye] Hell changes
Chapter 26: Heart
"Mr. Dazai, there is your courier." A voice called from below.Before Osamu Dazai went downstairs to pick up the courier, Ranpo Edogawa, who was sitting by the front desk, heard the sound and looked over.His eyes followed the package wrapped in kraft paper, his expression was complicated, and his brows were knit into a ball.
"What's that?" he asked Dazai.
"I don't know too well myself." Osamu Dazai took the package and thought about it for a while, carefully looked at it for a long time, and after confirming that no traps had been arranged, he took out a knife, opened the package in twos and twos, and saw the layers inside. After that, he froze in place, "A letter?"
He piled the letters on the table and started the process of sorting them out.
Suddenly, Higuchi Ichiyo, who was sorting out the information, heard a call.
Although it came suddenly, it was very clear, and she could be sure that someone outside was calling her.She frantically hid a pile of documents on the desktop into a drawer, carefully poked her head out of the window, and saw the landlord standing there not far away, staring at her eagerly.Only then did she suddenly realize that perhaps she had been approached because the rent for this month had not been paid, so she waved at the other party, indicating to wait for a while.The other party immediately caught up anxiously and begged her not to leave, not to go back to the house.
Higuchi Ichiyo scanned the surrounding suspiciously, but found no one, looked carefully, and after making sure that the person in front of him was not pretending, he slowly opened the door and walked out.
"Miss Higuchi Ichiyo, is that you? I didn't make a mistake, did I?"
"I was right."
After being comforted by Ichiyo Higuchi, the landlord finally adjusted his breathing, and his eyes seemed to be refocused. After confirming that she was Ichiyo Higuchi, there were some lights of hope in the empty pupils.
"It's me, don't worry, speak slowly."
Higuchi Ichiyo took advantage of the situation to comfort him frequently, not knowing what happened to him, why he looked so frightened.The light in the man's eyes disappeared in an instant, and he was engulfed by the stench of red light before he could blink.With a feeling of oppressive oppression like a low-grade fever that made people shiver, those red lights splashed overwhelmingly to the corners of Higuchi Ichiyo's eyes, bridge of nose, seams of lips, and pinnae of ears.Blood splashed on her body like fate.Her whole body was full of streaks of blood flowing downward.Higuchi Ichiyo's eyes lost their color, and he didn't wipe off the blood that sprayed on her face, tremblingly looking at the head in front of him that was still good but was suddenly cut off in half.
She didn't breathe, and she didn't make a sound, she let the suspected brain fluid flow to her hand that was still clinging to this person's shoulder, and the dark red sticky blood covered her hand and face.At that moment, she felt that she could not hear anything.
The half-cut corpse slipped from her hands, perhaps because she had lost the strength to hold the corpse's shoulders.When the corpse fell to the ground, there was not that kind of stiff collision sound, only the sound of brains and bones pouring out of the opened hole.There was a lot of noise.The ball of cerebellar nerves that still kept its intact shape also merged into a puddle of flesh-red mud, wriggling on the ground for a while before completely losing its sound.
After all this was over, a strange figure slowly appeared from the end of the corridor, walking towards her slowly, making chilling laughter.
"Miss Higuchi, if possible..."
"How about we talk, Akutagawa?"
"I'm here, leader, please order." Akutagawa Ryunosuke responded to Mori Ogai's call from the other end of the phone.
"How's life going?"
"Thanks to the leader's concern, in fact, Xia's emotions can be stabilized a long time ago."
"I miss you so much."
"Too much trouble for the leader, for a person like this..."
"Does that man named Fyodor make you feel so close?"
Ryunosuke Akutagawa inevitably hesitated.
"The other party is not a good person, and he is also on our way. You know this and stick to him day and night. This is not appropriate. If you plan to quit the port mafia, you can say it clearly."
"I hope the leader can give me the freedom to make friends." He secretly frowned.
Mori Ogai naturally couldn't see his expression at this time. After a long silence, he said: "I don't know how far the friend you mentioned has become? He asked you to betray the port mafia. Do you want to do it too?"
"He won't say this kind of request, please don't worry." Anxiety surged into his chest, making his breathing tense.
"But he is indeed not our friend, we are opponents, sooner or later there will be a day of hostility, you can't ignore this possibility, Akutagawa, these are things you have to face."
These are all things I have to face?He looked puzzled at the envelope in his hand.
"These are things you have to face", such a neatly written sentence is impressively written on the cover.After Osamu Dazai opened the contents of these letters, he seemed to have fallen into a life stagnation.He couldn't hear Edogawa Ranbu's call, no matter how he was reminded to wake up, he was immersed in the stories narrated in these words and couldn't wake up.
"I don't know where you will be, and you won't know where I am. Maybe there is a fate that always meets by coincidence, but there is no reason and capital to continue the fate... The first time I saw you, I couldn't forget it ……If you add the color of the world to your eyes, will you also come alive from the painting, fly to a distant place that no one knows, and never come back? The winter is coming… I am happy, You want me to sigh. You want me to be thankful, and you want me to give up...I like you very much..."
These all-too-familiar Japanese words are like arrowheads that have been beaten thickly by the tide at this moment. Thousands of arrows pierced Osamu Dazai's chest like a heart. He desperately tried to escape this deadly wing, but his body and senses had begun to gradually lose Perception, not knowing where or where to escape.
The sunset reflected a sad and dim yellow light on the glass, and it slowly hit him, his ears and eyes were filled with the vermilion sunset.The setting sun scalded his respiratory tract as if it had a burning ability, and even words could destroy him and make his ears ring and his eyes dazzled.
He did know who Oda Sakunosuke liked, but he was just surprised, and this information alone could not affect him to continue to live a new life.However, it wasn't until this moment that he realized that Oda Sakunosuke didn't take the emotion of love at first sight as a joke.How much courage it took Oda Sakunosuke to start writing from "Akutagawa Ryunosuke", and how much lingering affection it took to continue writing "I like you very much", no one will know except Oda Sakunosuke himself.Osamu Dazai decided to bravely face this heavy and absurd fact and give an explanation.
He didn't know who sent these, but these were indeed the facts he had to face.He has used various methods to catch up with Ryunosuke Akutagawa, and even tried to be as humble as a running dog. Now he finally plans to give up and live a new life with regrets, but Oda Sakunosuke's affection reminded him again—— Let Akutagawa Ryunosuke go easily.He lost Oda Sakunosuke and Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Oda Sakunosuke loved Akutagawa more than he thought, even more affectionate and serious than him.Oda Sakunosuke passed away with regret for Akutagawa, but Akutagawa had only heard of Oda Sakunosuke's name.
why?Why can Akutagawa leave irresponsibly?Stealing other people's feelings, indirectly causing them to be targeted by enemy organizations, paying their lives, and then walking away?Do these letters to Akutagawa deserve no reply?These thoughts have not received any response?Even for Oda Sakunosuke, Akutagawa cannot easily escape.
Are these love letters pretending to be Oda Sakunosuke's love and fleeing to some corner that no one has noticed?In which piece of cemetery is the yearning wrapped in the millimetre-countable gap between paper and paper shining brightly?Osamu Dazai didn't know.But at least Osamu Dazai understands that as long as he gets Akutagawa, all this will be over.As long as Akutagawa comes back to him again and never leaves again, these questions will be answered.Yes, he will.Oda Sakunosuke is the only friend who gave him light in the dark and muddy era. Akutagawa Ryunosuke is a deformed attachment that he can't let go of but can't help, so there is nothing wrong with him doing this, everything is for his friends, For pursuit, for persistence, and secondly for oneself.
He is not wrong.
"I'm not wrong!" Higuchi Kazuyo repeated.
She was forced to kneel on the cold ground with her hands tied behind her back.She raised her head, gritted her teeth, looked at the strange man in front of her, and said decisively: "I have never done anything wrong, and I have never done anything wrong to you. I will not say anything."
"I haven't spoken yet, don't be nervous." The man showed a friendly smile, "Let me introduce myself, I am..."
"No need." Higuchi Kazuyo sneered, "You are the one who has been pestering Akutagawa-senpai all this time."
Dostoevsky blinked, tilted his head as if thinking: "This kind of statement is not good, I have a relationship with him that you like and I like."
"Homosexuality is punishable by death in Russia."
"You can go to Northern Europe, I don't mind." He replied with ease, "Iceland is a good choice, what do you think, miss? We will invite you to be a bridesmaid at that time. You are an important subordinate of the dragon, and I will give you preferential treatment. you."
"Please don't use your mouth to say Akutagawa-senpai's name."
Dostoevsky had expected that soft words would not win the trust of this woman, but he did not expect to underestimate her love for Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Just a title for Akutagawa can make her dare to say such words to an unknown strong man.Thinking of this, Tosi smiled, and slowly stretched out his hand under Higuchi Ichiyo's surprised eyes: "Do you intend to join my team with Long?"
"Join your..."
"I need you, I need you."
"need me?"
"Yes."
After affirming, he repeated again: "I need you back. The port mafia needs you back."
"But……"
"But? The Akutagawa-kun I know never hesitates to respond to orders from his superiors."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke thought of Dostoevsky.The Dostoevsky who is always trying to keep him, the Dostoevsky who is always flattering himself, always puts himself at the top of his heart...
He would naturally follow the order and go back without questioning, but the moment he heard the order, a picture of Dostoevsky's reaction after leaving immediately appeared in his mind, this picture was somehow powerful beat his heart hard.Heart.Is there such a unique and sensitive heart between ordinary friends?Has the relationship between him and Dostoevsky really gone beyond friendship, or has it turned into love?He suddenly felt that what he said just now was like a stabbing roar, burning his vocal cords and even his respiratory tract.
"I have an extraordinary task in my hands that I intend to entrust to you. I hope you can accept my attention. This is a hunting task, and the target is a human tiger with a bounty of 70 billion. A human in the state of a tiger. You don’t have to worry about not being able to find the reward target, other members of the organization have already determined who the tiger is, and will send the information to you later, you just need to capture it alive.”
"clear."
"Okay, I'll hang up the phone then."
"Please wait a moment." Akutagawa Ryunosuke rarely showed panic, "I don't understand, does this have anything to do with the betrayal of your friend you mentioned just now?"
"connect?"
"Yes, it was sent to me. Does it have anything to do with you?" Osamu Dazai stretched out his hand, his expression was calm, but there was an unpredictable emotion in the depths of his eyes.
Edogawa Ranpo held the snatched letter even tighter, and slowly distanced himself from Osamu Dazai: "This kind of thing will not bring you benefits."
"This is my friend's relic. It is the last thing he left to me. If I don't return it to me, I will do terrible things. I hope you can understand."
"If you had the guts, you would have killed me long ago. Can't you do it?"
"These letters mean his love, and they will tell me what I should do, the last thing I can do for my friend."
"What? You mean to find a reasonable excuse to pursue Akutagawa again, and use this reason to kidnap him?"
"How can it be called kidnapping?" Dazai Osamu seemed to give in, showing a dumbfounding expression, but he couldn't make Edogawa Ranpo trust him at all, "I'm different from you. You gave up immediately after being left out in the cold. I can't be so open-minded. Mr. Ranpo, think about it carefully, my friend is waiting for me to complete his regret, as long as I do it, his wish will be fulfilled, and he will feel gratified in the spirit of heaven, and Akutagawa will gradually fall in love with me in the future, and I will be his only support, and everything will return to the best way it was before, and the three of them will be able to be happy, which is a great joy, isn't it?"
Edogawa Ranpo opened his eyes instantly, his emerald green eyes looked at Osamu Dazai with unprecedented doubt and fear.When Dazai Osamu joined the Armed Detective Agency on the first day, he reminded Fukuzawa Yukichi not to let this person come into contact with Akutagawa Ryunosuke again. It's hidden, and the only switch that can make this side explode is Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Everyone in the detective agency abides by this unwritten contract, and it is impossible for someone to take the initiative to break it. Who is this person who deliberately disrupted the balance?It must be someone from outside the company.
"Someone is using you. These things are all means to provoke your emotions." Edogawa Ranpo threw the letter in his hand on the ground, stepped on it, pouted dissatisfiedly, and went up to throw other letters Grab it.Osamu Dazai stood there without moving.Edogawa tore at random as if venting, and then simply waved his arms away.Confetti is pouring down, dancing like fluttering butterflies, flying cover hampering flowers, "Look, as long as I tear it up a few times, it will become like this, it is such a worthless thing. Stay here and be an office worker. Do you have to interfere with Akutagawa again, and stop him from falling in love with others, just like you stopped him from me?"
The falling confetti drenched Osamu Dazai from head to toe, but he still stood there without moving, looking at Edogawa Ranpo with each other's thoughts.Both of them chose to remain silent at this time, fighting silently with their eyes as a confrontation.Shreds of paper swayed around Dazai Osamu in circles of fly ash, like pale flames, and the lovesickness expressed in those words that were just complete turned into fragments, from beginning to end, all turned into ashes in an instant.The only remaining trace showed a pale orange red in the setting sun, whirled and danced like an eel, and finally fell quietly, wriggling feebly on the ground.When the momentary peristalsis disappeared, Osamu Dazai held up the pile of scraps of paper blankly, without saying a word, his body trembling for no reason.Time flows through the bones every minute and every second, and the intermittent bells are scattered in the warm-toned brilliance like fleeting shadows, singing the vaguely sad and piercing bones over and over again.
"As long as I succeed, there won't be those problems." As if the world has passed away, only he is still telling at a speed close to the heartbeat, "As long as I succeed, I will be right. Then I will slowly Deal with this man behind the scenes who intends to take advantage of me."
"You won't succeed. I've seen through the fact that you won't be his choice. You won't be his choice." Edogawa Ranbu opened his green eyes full of regret, and lowered his eyebrows Frowning into a hill, "He'll love someone else."
"Fell in love with... in love with someone else?"
"You mean, Akutagawa-senpai fell in love with you?" Higuchi Kazuyo looked up at Dostoevsky in disbelief.
Dostoevsky has a handsome face, elegant demeanor, and a slender figure. As soon as he sits lazily on the leather chair as he likes, he can create a pleasing look that is eye-catching.He glanced at her with those narrow-pupiled purple eyes, unseen pressure on her.
"Miss, you should be aware of current affairs, right? After joining us, you will become a key member who is valued, not an inconspicuous errand figure in a huge mafia. What a young girl, it is the golden age, you can get The treatment you get is far more than what you have now, and you think so, don’t you? The port mafia doesn’t value you, and doesn’t plan to use your talents, and hasn’t given you any benefits. You don’t have any need to be loyal to this kind of organization, right? " Dostoevsky smiled slightly, "If even the only subordinate who is close to me becomes my subordinate, then the dragon will have no reason to reject me, so there is no need to worry about being separated from the respected Akutagawa-senpai. It is a perfect proposal. , isn't it?"
"I refuse..." Before the words of refusal could be fully put into words, Higuchi Kazuyo was kicked in the stomach severely by the entourage who was responsible for restraining her actions.She was deprived of the ability to speak for about half a minute by the pain, and a hoarse moan came out of her throat.After the pain subsided slowly, she raised her neck with difficulty.
Dostoyevsky had a triumphant smile on his face.
"Senior Akutagawa will not betray the Port Mafia... Even if he kills me, he will not choose you."
Dostoevsky winked at the attendant, who nodded, and used supernatural powers to magnify the pain just now, spreading to her whole body, from scalp to toe, no one was spared from it.
"Really, how can you be so unreasonable to this young girl?" Tosi smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Don't let go soon?"
A small knife cut the hemp rope binding Higuchi Ichiyo's hands.Originally, the kick just now almost had the force to hit the internal organs, but suddenly without any relief, it expanded more than a hundred times, wandering through her whole body, and the chaotic pain that seemed to be ringing in the ears invaded her brain, and the pain it brought was called Kill.She closed her eyes tightly, and when her hands were free, she immediately hugged her head, and her fingertips almost dug into her temples.The pain was so severe that it seemed to change the structure of her flesh/body from the beginning to the end.She couldn't hold on any longer, and let out a scream as if her nerves were frozen.
Dostoevsky watched her struggling quietly, his face was calm, and he even yawned leisurely.
"For the last time, you seem to have misunderstood me a little, and thought I was a robber, trying to take your senior away forcibly. It's not, very seriously, I am sincere to him. Without him, I would Die. I won't let him go. So tenderly asking for your opinion is actually looking for the best solution. If you still insist on your own opinion, don't blame me for not reminding you. The chance to live is in front of you .”
The supernatural person is still multiplying the pain sensation.Higuchi Ichiyo felt as if he was locked in a press and turned several times, as if a pair of sharp teeth bit her flesh, tore her liver and intestines, and at the same time, a hand with cracked skin and dried meat pierced her The pain in his heart was as painful as if his body had been pierced by snakes, insects and ants.She had never experienced such sharp and extreme pain in her life.Dostoevsky used his strength to teach her what it means to be pierced by thousands of arrows and inhumane.
"It's so ridiculous..." Higuchi Ichiyo's teeth trembled.Biting her bleeding lip, she struggled to hum a mocking laugh, "Does Akutagawa-senpai's relationship have to develop like this? It's ridiculous... Everyone pursues him in a deformed way, pretending to be a gentleman on the surface, Setting up traps behind the scenes... Hahaha, you don't think your methods are perfect, do you? It's because Akutagawa-senpai is not easy to get, that's why you think it's fun, right? I really want to know, if you really end up with Akutagawa The seniors are together, will you be violent at home?"
At last something changed in Dostoevsky's facial expression.The obvious displeasure and boredom replaced his smile just now, revealing his true inner activities.
"Do it."
The pain that continued to expand tortured Higuchi Ichiyo, and blood with a strong smell flowed from the corner of her mouth all the way to her chest.The special smell of blood and rust entered her body along with her breath, filling her internal organs with an air that symbolized half-dead.The pressure brought by the supernatural power has already destroyed her tendons, and she can no longer make any resistance, and she can't even stand up.Higuchi Ichiyo resisted the enemy tenaciously, refusing to bend his back, but he failed in the end, and his body collapsed powerlessly as if his flesh and blood had been ransacked.
The blood under her body was as sticky as a paste.She was choked by the blood in her mouth, and coughed violently on the ground, but this action caused her throat to burn, and she could only choke out the sound of choking.The blood clot pierced into the throat, and the sticky and smelly feeling spread delicately. She began to get goosebumps, her head was dizzy, and she let out hoarse panting, like whimpering.
Seeing that Higuchi Ichiyo was half dead, the supernatural being took out his gun unhurriedly and pointed it at her forehead.
She let out a mournful sob, and the water mist that gradually formed in her eyes quickly spread and spread, soaking all the places where her eyes could reach into fragmented icy color clusters.The panic, sorrow and tears that could not be shouted were choked in the throat together, hitting the marrow and bone without being known.
"Senior Akutagawa..."
"Akutagawa...you are acting emotionally, this is not the you I know." Mori Ogai sighed, "There are currently three people participating in the bounty offering, and one of them is an underground bandit group in Russia, not far from you Just now you said that your gentleman is not an enemy, and it seems that you really did not defend him at all. Being emotional made you not consider that the enemy is by your side."
Am I really being emotional?Akutagawa Ryunosuke felt dizzy.Having said this, no matter how stupid a person is, he can understand what Mori Ogai is trying to explain.In fact, Akutagawa also vaguely grasped the truth by following the hints in Mori Ogai's words, but he still persisted in saying that Dostoevsky is not an enemy, please allow me to associate with him.I'm doing Dostoevsky a favor.Akutagawa Ryunosuke realized this too late.
He inevitably recalls bits and pieces with the man with the purple eyes.I thought of the way the other party deliberately tilted her shoulders to pretend to be cute when she was trying to be nice, and remembered the way the other party looked at me tenderly even if she was beaten and scolded by herself.Why, why, how could he, how could he suddenly remember all of this...
Recalling the moment when he first met him leaning on the piano in the brightly lit room.Came to his side quietly.Thinking of the umbrella he bent slightly to hold up for himself.Occasionally, he would gently hang his coat over his shoulders.Thinking of his gentle gaze that could drown himself when he looked back.At that time, there were a few splashes of water splashed by the umbrella, and the sound of raindrops suddenly became more delicate.
Akutagawa stepped into the floor of the residence, but was so shocked by the bloody scene in front of him that he froze in place.Mori Ogai's frequent prompts on the phone gradually became blurred, and the original complete information was transmitted to his ears, leaving only an indescribable muffled tone.He quickly found the cell phone hidden by Ichiyo Higuchi, and a fixed position was displayed on the screen.This is the clue left by Higuchi, she must have secretly installed a tracker on the enemy to remind him.
Akutagawa Ryuunosuke had quick eyes and hands, grabbed the phone and immediately ran to the destination.
He ran as hard as he could.Even if he chases to the end of the world, he will continue to chase.Even if his leg is about to break at this moment, he will keep moving forward.The heartache, and the dull pain that it brought, paralyzed his sense of tired lungs.There is no beginning, no longer, no continuation, and no result.The only physical sensation produced during the run was the stiffness of the elbows.All he knew was that he had to run.Must run.It seems that all the heart-wrenching pain is about to end in an instant, and only the endless memory remains here, refusing to leave, whirling together with those feelings in my heart that are far longer than love words, depicting countless pictures of the past.
The picture finally freezes at the moment when he and Dostoevsky stood in front of the Russian street where the flowers faded in spring.
He opened the door.On the opposite side sat the man he was thinking about crazily at the moment, and Higuchi Kazuyo who fell beside him.
The man was not surprised by his arrival. He had murderous intent in his eyes just now, but the moment he saw him, he smiled all over his face: "Finally...you are finally here, please allow me to say this, I am to you... "
"The leader of the underground bandit group 'Rats of the Dead' is named Fyodor D..." Mori Ogai's voice came from the phone.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke slowly knelt on the ground as if in a daze, the phone slipped from his palm weakly.The ice cubes surrounding his heart melted into water and steam, and with pain came out from his chest to his eyes: "Feyya..."
In other words, Akutagawa will fall in love with other people, call other people affectionately, and look at other people in his eyes?Osamu Dazai stood there in a daze, imitating the tongue dully.
After a long while, he withdrew this attitude, and bent a calm and gentle smile as if he didn't mind at all: "It's okay. If Akutagawa really wants to do this, then I just kill him and his new partner. "
--------------------
The author has something to say:
Make a montage.
"What's that?" he asked Dazai.
"I don't know too well myself." Osamu Dazai took the package and thought about it for a while, carefully looked at it for a long time, and after confirming that no traps had been arranged, he took out a knife, opened the package in twos and twos, and saw the layers inside. After that, he froze in place, "A letter?"
He piled the letters on the table and started the process of sorting them out.
Suddenly, Higuchi Ichiyo, who was sorting out the information, heard a call.
Although it came suddenly, it was very clear, and she could be sure that someone outside was calling her.She frantically hid a pile of documents on the desktop into a drawer, carefully poked her head out of the window, and saw the landlord standing there not far away, staring at her eagerly.Only then did she suddenly realize that perhaps she had been approached because the rent for this month had not been paid, so she waved at the other party, indicating to wait for a while.The other party immediately caught up anxiously and begged her not to leave, not to go back to the house.
Higuchi Ichiyo scanned the surrounding suspiciously, but found no one, looked carefully, and after making sure that the person in front of him was not pretending, he slowly opened the door and walked out.
"Miss Higuchi Ichiyo, is that you? I didn't make a mistake, did I?"
"I was right."
After being comforted by Ichiyo Higuchi, the landlord finally adjusted his breathing, and his eyes seemed to be refocused. After confirming that she was Ichiyo Higuchi, there were some lights of hope in the empty pupils.
"It's me, don't worry, speak slowly."
Higuchi Ichiyo took advantage of the situation to comfort him frequently, not knowing what happened to him, why he looked so frightened.The light in the man's eyes disappeared in an instant, and he was engulfed by the stench of red light before he could blink.With a feeling of oppressive oppression like a low-grade fever that made people shiver, those red lights splashed overwhelmingly to the corners of Higuchi Ichiyo's eyes, bridge of nose, seams of lips, and pinnae of ears.Blood splashed on her body like fate.Her whole body was full of streaks of blood flowing downward.Higuchi Ichiyo's eyes lost their color, and he didn't wipe off the blood that sprayed on her face, tremblingly looking at the head in front of him that was still good but was suddenly cut off in half.
She didn't breathe, and she didn't make a sound, she let the suspected brain fluid flow to her hand that was still clinging to this person's shoulder, and the dark red sticky blood covered her hand and face.At that moment, she felt that she could not hear anything.
The half-cut corpse slipped from her hands, perhaps because she had lost the strength to hold the corpse's shoulders.When the corpse fell to the ground, there was not that kind of stiff collision sound, only the sound of brains and bones pouring out of the opened hole.There was a lot of noise.The ball of cerebellar nerves that still kept its intact shape also merged into a puddle of flesh-red mud, wriggling on the ground for a while before completely losing its sound.
After all this was over, a strange figure slowly appeared from the end of the corridor, walking towards her slowly, making chilling laughter.
"Miss Higuchi, if possible..."
"How about we talk, Akutagawa?"
"I'm here, leader, please order." Akutagawa Ryunosuke responded to Mori Ogai's call from the other end of the phone.
"How's life going?"
"Thanks to the leader's concern, in fact, Xia's emotions can be stabilized a long time ago."
"I miss you so much."
"Too much trouble for the leader, for a person like this..."
"Does that man named Fyodor make you feel so close?"
Ryunosuke Akutagawa inevitably hesitated.
"The other party is not a good person, and he is also on our way. You know this and stick to him day and night. This is not appropriate. If you plan to quit the port mafia, you can say it clearly."
"I hope the leader can give me the freedom to make friends." He secretly frowned.
Mori Ogai naturally couldn't see his expression at this time. After a long silence, he said: "I don't know how far the friend you mentioned has become? He asked you to betray the port mafia. Do you want to do it too?"
"He won't say this kind of request, please don't worry." Anxiety surged into his chest, making his breathing tense.
"But he is indeed not our friend, we are opponents, sooner or later there will be a day of hostility, you can't ignore this possibility, Akutagawa, these are things you have to face."
These are all things I have to face?He looked puzzled at the envelope in his hand.
"These are things you have to face", such a neatly written sentence is impressively written on the cover.After Osamu Dazai opened the contents of these letters, he seemed to have fallen into a life stagnation.He couldn't hear Edogawa Ranbu's call, no matter how he was reminded to wake up, he was immersed in the stories narrated in these words and couldn't wake up.
"I don't know where you will be, and you won't know where I am. Maybe there is a fate that always meets by coincidence, but there is no reason and capital to continue the fate... The first time I saw you, I couldn't forget it ……If you add the color of the world to your eyes, will you also come alive from the painting, fly to a distant place that no one knows, and never come back? The winter is coming… I am happy, You want me to sigh. You want me to be thankful, and you want me to give up...I like you very much..."
These all-too-familiar Japanese words are like arrowheads that have been beaten thickly by the tide at this moment. Thousands of arrows pierced Osamu Dazai's chest like a heart. He desperately tried to escape this deadly wing, but his body and senses had begun to gradually lose Perception, not knowing where or where to escape.
The sunset reflected a sad and dim yellow light on the glass, and it slowly hit him, his ears and eyes were filled with the vermilion sunset.The setting sun scalded his respiratory tract as if it had a burning ability, and even words could destroy him and make his ears ring and his eyes dazzled.
He did know who Oda Sakunosuke liked, but he was just surprised, and this information alone could not affect him to continue to live a new life.However, it wasn't until this moment that he realized that Oda Sakunosuke didn't take the emotion of love at first sight as a joke.How much courage it took Oda Sakunosuke to start writing from "Akutagawa Ryunosuke", and how much lingering affection it took to continue writing "I like you very much", no one will know except Oda Sakunosuke himself.Osamu Dazai decided to bravely face this heavy and absurd fact and give an explanation.
He didn't know who sent these, but these were indeed the facts he had to face.He has used various methods to catch up with Ryunosuke Akutagawa, and even tried to be as humble as a running dog. Now he finally plans to give up and live a new life with regrets, but Oda Sakunosuke's affection reminded him again—— Let Akutagawa Ryunosuke go easily.He lost Oda Sakunosuke and Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Oda Sakunosuke loved Akutagawa more than he thought, even more affectionate and serious than him.Oda Sakunosuke passed away with regret for Akutagawa, but Akutagawa had only heard of Oda Sakunosuke's name.
why?Why can Akutagawa leave irresponsibly?Stealing other people's feelings, indirectly causing them to be targeted by enemy organizations, paying their lives, and then walking away?Do these letters to Akutagawa deserve no reply?These thoughts have not received any response?Even for Oda Sakunosuke, Akutagawa cannot easily escape.
Are these love letters pretending to be Oda Sakunosuke's love and fleeing to some corner that no one has noticed?In which piece of cemetery is the yearning wrapped in the millimetre-countable gap between paper and paper shining brightly?Osamu Dazai didn't know.But at least Osamu Dazai understands that as long as he gets Akutagawa, all this will be over.As long as Akutagawa comes back to him again and never leaves again, these questions will be answered.Yes, he will.Oda Sakunosuke is the only friend who gave him light in the dark and muddy era. Akutagawa Ryunosuke is a deformed attachment that he can't let go of but can't help, so there is nothing wrong with him doing this, everything is for his friends, For pursuit, for persistence, and secondly for oneself.
He is not wrong.
"I'm not wrong!" Higuchi Kazuyo repeated.
She was forced to kneel on the cold ground with her hands tied behind her back.She raised her head, gritted her teeth, looked at the strange man in front of her, and said decisively: "I have never done anything wrong, and I have never done anything wrong to you. I will not say anything."
"I haven't spoken yet, don't be nervous." The man showed a friendly smile, "Let me introduce myself, I am..."
"No need." Higuchi Kazuyo sneered, "You are the one who has been pestering Akutagawa-senpai all this time."
Dostoevsky blinked, tilted his head as if thinking: "This kind of statement is not good, I have a relationship with him that you like and I like."
"Homosexuality is punishable by death in Russia."
"You can go to Northern Europe, I don't mind." He replied with ease, "Iceland is a good choice, what do you think, miss? We will invite you to be a bridesmaid at that time. You are an important subordinate of the dragon, and I will give you preferential treatment. you."
"Please don't use your mouth to say Akutagawa-senpai's name."
Dostoevsky had expected that soft words would not win the trust of this woman, but he did not expect to underestimate her love for Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Just a title for Akutagawa can make her dare to say such words to an unknown strong man.Thinking of this, Tosi smiled, and slowly stretched out his hand under Higuchi Ichiyo's surprised eyes: "Do you intend to join my team with Long?"
"Join your..."
"I need you, I need you."
"need me?"
"Yes."
After affirming, he repeated again: "I need you back. The port mafia needs you back."
"But……"
"But? The Akutagawa-kun I know never hesitates to respond to orders from his superiors."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke thought of Dostoevsky.The Dostoevsky who is always trying to keep him, the Dostoevsky who is always flattering himself, always puts himself at the top of his heart...
He would naturally follow the order and go back without questioning, but the moment he heard the order, a picture of Dostoevsky's reaction after leaving immediately appeared in his mind, this picture was somehow powerful beat his heart hard.Heart.Is there such a unique and sensitive heart between ordinary friends?Has the relationship between him and Dostoevsky really gone beyond friendship, or has it turned into love?He suddenly felt that what he said just now was like a stabbing roar, burning his vocal cords and even his respiratory tract.
"I have an extraordinary task in my hands that I intend to entrust to you. I hope you can accept my attention. This is a hunting task, and the target is a human tiger with a bounty of 70 billion. A human in the state of a tiger. You don’t have to worry about not being able to find the reward target, other members of the organization have already determined who the tiger is, and will send the information to you later, you just need to capture it alive.”
"clear."
"Okay, I'll hang up the phone then."
"Please wait a moment." Akutagawa Ryunosuke rarely showed panic, "I don't understand, does this have anything to do with the betrayal of your friend you mentioned just now?"
"connect?"
"Yes, it was sent to me. Does it have anything to do with you?" Osamu Dazai stretched out his hand, his expression was calm, but there was an unpredictable emotion in the depths of his eyes.
Edogawa Ranpo held the snatched letter even tighter, and slowly distanced himself from Osamu Dazai: "This kind of thing will not bring you benefits."
"This is my friend's relic. It is the last thing he left to me. If I don't return it to me, I will do terrible things. I hope you can understand."
"If you had the guts, you would have killed me long ago. Can't you do it?"
"These letters mean his love, and they will tell me what I should do, the last thing I can do for my friend."
"What? You mean to find a reasonable excuse to pursue Akutagawa again, and use this reason to kidnap him?"
"How can it be called kidnapping?" Dazai Osamu seemed to give in, showing a dumbfounding expression, but he couldn't make Edogawa Ranpo trust him at all, "I'm different from you. You gave up immediately after being left out in the cold. I can't be so open-minded. Mr. Ranpo, think about it carefully, my friend is waiting for me to complete his regret, as long as I do it, his wish will be fulfilled, and he will feel gratified in the spirit of heaven, and Akutagawa will gradually fall in love with me in the future, and I will be his only support, and everything will return to the best way it was before, and the three of them will be able to be happy, which is a great joy, isn't it?"
Edogawa Ranpo opened his eyes instantly, his emerald green eyes looked at Osamu Dazai with unprecedented doubt and fear.When Dazai Osamu joined the Armed Detective Agency on the first day, he reminded Fukuzawa Yukichi not to let this person come into contact with Akutagawa Ryunosuke again. It's hidden, and the only switch that can make this side explode is Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Everyone in the detective agency abides by this unwritten contract, and it is impossible for someone to take the initiative to break it. Who is this person who deliberately disrupted the balance?It must be someone from outside the company.
"Someone is using you. These things are all means to provoke your emotions." Edogawa Ranpo threw the letter in his hand on the ground, stepped on it, pouted dissatisfiedly, and went up to throw other letters Grab it.Osamu Dazai stood there without moving.Edogawa tore at random as if venting, and then simply waved his arms away.Confetti is pouring down, dancing like fluttering butterflies, flying cover hampering flowers, "Look, as long as I tear it up a few times, it will become like this, it is such a worthless thing. Stay here and be an office worker. Do you have to interfere with Akutagawa again, and stop him from falling in love with others, just like you stopped him from me?"
The falling confetti drenched Osamu Dazai from head to toe, but he still stood there without moving, looking at Edogawa Ranpo with each other's thoughts.Both of them chose to remain silent at this time, fighting silently with their eyes as a confrontation.Shreds of paper swayed around Dazai Osamu in circles of fly ash, like pale flames, and the lovesickness expressed in those words that were just complete turned into fragments, from beginning to end, all turned into ashes in an instant.The only remaining trace showed a pale orange red in the setting sun, whirled and danced like an eel, and finally fell quietly, wriggling feebly on the ground.When the momentary peristalsis disappeared, Osamu Dazai held up the pile of scraps of paper blankly, without saying a word, his body trembling for no reason.Time flows through the bones every minute and every second, and the intermittent bells are scattered in the warm-toned brilliance like fleeting shadows, singing the vaguely sad and piercing bones over and over again.
"As long as I succeed, there won't be those problems." As if the world has passed away, only he is still telling at a speed close to the heartbeat, "As long as I succeed, I will be right. Then I will slowly Deal with this man behind the scenes who intends to take advantage of me."
"You won't succeed. I've seen through the fact that you won't be his choice. You won't be his choice." Edogawa Ranbu opened his green eyes full of regret, and lowered his eyebrows Frowning into a hill, "He'll love someone else."
"Fell in love with... in love with someone else?"
"You mean, Akutagawa-senpai fell in love with you?" Higuchi Kazuyo looked up at Dostoevsky in disbelief.
Dostoevsky has a handsome face, elegant demeanor, and a slender figure. As soon as he sits lazily on the leather chair as he likes, he can create a pleasing look that is eye-catching.He glanced at her with those narrow-pupiled purple eyes, unseen pressure on her.
"Miss, you should be aware of current affairs, right? After joining us, you will become a key member who is valued, not an inconspicuous errand figure in a huge mafia. What a young girl, it is the golden age, you can get The treatment you get is far more than what you have now, and you think so, don’t you? The port mafia doesn’t value you, and doesn’t plan to use your talents, and hasn’t given you any benefits. You don’t have any need to be loyal to this kind of organization, right? " Dostoevsky smiled slightly, "If even the only subordinate who is close to me becomes my subordinate, then the dragon will have no reason to reject me, so there is no need to worry about being separated from the respected Akutagawa-senpai. It is a perfect proposal. , isn't it?"
"I refuse..." Before the words of refusal could be fully put into words, Higuchi Kazuyo was kicked in the stomach severely by the entourage who was responsible for restraining her actions.She was deprived of the ability to speak for about half a minute by the pain, and a hoarse moan came out of her throat.After the pain subsided slowly, she raised her neck with difficulty.
Dostoyevsky had a triumphant smile on his face.
"Senior Akutagawa will not betray the Port Mafia... Even if he kills me, he will not choose you."
Dostoevsky winked at the attendant, who nodded, and used supernatural powers to magnify the pain just now, spreading to her whole body, from scalp to toe, no one was spared from it.
"Really, how can you be so unreasonable to this young girl?" Tosi smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Don't let go soon?"
A small knife cut the hemp rope binding Higuchi Ichiyo's hands.Originally, the kick just now almost had the force to hit the internal organs, but suddenly without any relief, it expanded more than a hundred times, wandering through her whole body, and the chaotic pain that seemed to be ringing in the ears invaded her brain, and the pain it brought was called Kill.She closed her eyes tightly, and when her hands were free, she immediately hugged her head, and her fingertips almost dug into her temples.The pain was so severe that it seemed to change the structure of her flesh/body from the beginning to the end.She couldn't hold on any longer, and let out a scream as if her nerves were frozen.
Dostoevsky watched her struggling quietly, his face was calm, and he even yawned leisurely.
"For the last time, you seem to have misunderstood me a little, and thought I was a robber, trying to take your senior away forcibly. It's not, very seriously, I am sincere to him. Without him, I would Die. I won't let him go. So tenderly asking for your opinion is actually looking for the best solution. If you still insist on your own opinion, don't blame me for not reminding you. The chance to live is in front of you .”
The supernatural person is still multiplying the pain sensation.Higuchi Ichiyo felt as if he was locked in a press and turned several times, as if a pair of sharp teeth bit her flesh, tore her liver and intestines, and at the same time, a hand with cracked skin and dried meat pierced her The pain in his heart was as painful as if his body had been pierced by snakes, insects and ants.She had never experienced such sharp and extreme pain in her life.Dostoevsky used his strength to teach her what it means to be pierced by thousands of arrows and inhumane.
"It's so ridiculous..." Higuchi Ichiyo's teeth trembled.Biting her bleeding lip, she struggled to hum a mocking laugh, "Does Akutagawa-senpai's relationship have to develop like this? It's ridiculous... Everyone pursues him in a deformed way, pretending to be a gentleman on the surface, Setting up traps behind the scenes... Hahaha, you don't think your methods are perfect, do you? It's because Akutagawa-senpai is not easy to get, that's why you think it's fun, right? I really want to know, if you really end up with Akutagawa The seniors are together, will you be violent at home?"
At last something changed in Dostoevsky's facial expression.The obvious displeasure and boredom replaced his smile just now, revealing his true inner activities.
"Do it."
The pain that continued to expand tortured Higuchi Ichiyo, and blood with a strong smell flowed from the corner of her mouth all the way to her chest.The special smell of blood and rust entered her body along with her breath, filling her internal organs with an air that symbolized half-dead.The pressure brought by the supernatural power has already destroyed her tendons, and she can no longer make any resistance, and she can't even stand up.Higuchi Ichiyo resisted the enemy tenaciously, refusing to bend his back, but he failed in the end, and his body collapsed powerlessly as if his flesh and blood had been ransacked.
The blood under her body was as sticky as a paste.She was choked by the blood in her mouth, and coughed violently on the ground, but this action caused her throat to burn, and she could only choke out the sound of choking.The blood clot pierced into the throat, and the sticky and smelly feeling spread delicately. She began to get goosebumps, her head was dizzy, and she let out hoarse panting, like whimpering.
Seeing that Higuchi Ichiyo was half dead, the supernatural being took out his gun unhurriedly and pointed it at her forehead.
She let out a mournful sob, and the water mist that gradually formed in her eyes quickly spread and spread, soaking all the places where her eyes could reach into fragmented icy color clusters.The panic, sorrow and tears that could not be shouted were choked in the throat together, hitting the marrow and bone without being known.
"Senior Akutagawa..."
"Akutagawa...you are acting emotionally, this is not the you I know." Mori Ogai sighed, "There are currently three people participating in the bounty offering, and one of them is an underground bandit group in Russia, not far from you Just now you said that your gentleman is not an enemy, and it seems that you really did not defend him at all. Being emotional made you not consider that the enemy is by your side."
Am I really being emotional?Akutagawa Ryunosuke felt dizzy.Having said this, no matter how stupid a person is, he can understand what Mori Ogai is trying to explain.In fact, Akutagawa also vaguely grasped the truth by following the hints in Mori Ogai's words, but he still persisted in saying that Dostoevsky is not an enemy, please allow me to associate with him.I'm doing Dostoevsky a favor.Akutagawa Ryunosuke realized this too late.
He inevitably recalls bits and pieces with the man with the purple eyes.I thought of the way the other party deliberately tilted her shoulders to pretend to be cute when she was trying to be nice, and remembered the way the other party looked at me tenderly even if she was beaten and scolded by herself.Why, why, how could he, how could he suddenly remember all of this...
Recalling the moment when he first met him leaning on the piano in the brightly lit room.Came to his side quietly.Thinking of the umbrella he bent slightly to hold up for himself.Occasionally, he would gently hang his coat over his shoulders.Thinking of his gentle gaze that could drown himself when he looked back.At that time, there were a few splashes of water splashed by the umbrella, and the sound of raindrops suddenly became more delicate.
Akutagawa stepped into the floor of the residence, but was so shocked by the bloody scene in front of him that he froze in place.Mori Ogai's frequent prompts on the phone gradually became blurred, and the original complete information was transmitted to his ears, leaving only an indescribable muffled tone.He quickly found the cell phone hidden by Ichiyo Higuchi, and a fixed position was displayed on the screen.This is the clue left by Higuchi, she must have secretly installed a tracker on the enemy to remind him.
Akutagawa Ryuunosuke had quick eyes and hands, grabbed the phone and immediately ran to the destination.
He ran as hard as he could.Even if he chases to the end of the world, he will continue to chase.Even if his leg is about to break at this moment, he will keep moving forward.The heartache, and the dull pain that it brought, paralyzed his sense of tired lungs.There is no beginning, no longer, no continuation, and no result.The only physical sensation produced during the run was the stiffness of the elbows.All he knew was that he had to run.Must run.It seems that all the heart-wrenching pain is about to end in an instant, and only the endless memory remains here, refusing to leave, whirling together with those feelings in my heart that are far longer than love words, depicting countless pictures of the past.
The picture finally freezes at the moment when he and Dostoevsky stood in front of the Russian street where the flowers faded in spring.
He opened the door.On the opposite side sat the man he was thinking about crazily at the moment, and Higuchi Kazuyo who fell beside him.
The man was not surprised by his arrival. He had murderous intent in his eyes just now, but the moment he saw him, he smiled all over his face: "Finally...you are finally here, please allow me to say this, I am to you... "
"The leader of the underground bandit group 'Rats of the Dead' is named Fyodor D..." Mori Ogai's voice came from the phone.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke slowly knelt on the ground as if in a daze, the phone slipped from his palm weakly.The ice cubes surrounding his heart melted into water and steam, and with pain came out from his chest to his eyes: "Feyya..."
In other words, Akutagawa will fall in love with other people, call other people affectionately, and look at other people in his eyes?Osamu Dazai stood there in a daze, imitating the tongue dully.
After a long while, he withdrew this attitude, and bent a calm and gentle smile as if he didn't mind at all: "It's okay. If Akutagawa really wants to do this, then I just kill him and his new partner. "
