It is so cold indoors and outdoors, in the room and in the human world. The cold air and the airflow exhaled by people squeeze each other. It is also unbearable to be buried in the belly of a fish.Akutagawa inhaled a large amount of cold air that stung his lungs, but he felt that what he really inhaled into his lungs was the throbbing engraved in the depths of his soul, like grinding ink.

He still couldn't see Sue Hiroshi's face clearly.Akutagawa Ryunosuke has never seen anyone with such loving eyes on him.All tender love.There is nothing there but love.Of course, Akutagawa Ryunosuke has never felt like crying, feeling sad and regretful like now.Why, why are such beautiful eyes for people like me?Why, the love that is so heart-moving, so strong, bursting out of the eyes, can only be confessed at this time?

The light reflected the raindrops like shooting stars, and they all poured down.

The meteor streaked across Suguang Tiechang's cheek and fell on his face.

Today's matter should not be maliciously publicized, let alone Okura Yezi know.Fukuchi Sakurachi said, and led Joye Caiju and Tachihara Michizo out of here.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's hand stopped stiffly above the handle of the wheelchair, and his fingernails were bent and deformed due to excessive pressing, forming crescent moon marks and gently embedded in the soft pad on the handle.

The poison quickly took effect. The powerful toxin climbed up Suguang Tiechang's internal organs, seared the blood vessels, tendons and muscle tissue bonded to his internal organs, and started from the deepest part of his body like sharp fangs. Biting, pulling out an extraordinary pain.The blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth flowed to his chin, drawing a hideous curve.The remnants of vitality, scarletr than the salamander belly in the mating period, reside in the curved track, carrying the chaotic dreams in the rain, gushing out of the body, slowly flowing down and dripping, ready to disappear into oblivion and death at any time.

After the sound of their footsteps completely disappeared, Akutagawa Ryunosuke could no longer pretend, as if he had forgotten that his legs were malfunctioning, he hurriedly stretched out his hands and stepped forward, wanting to go to Suehiro Tetsuchang's side.He fell to the ground, unable to move his legs, he could only desperately use his arms to move and crawl on the ground, until he could clearly hear the murmur of Mo Guang Tiegut, which was as thin as a mosquito.

"Akutagawa?" Suehiro Tetsugu called out uncertainly.

"I'm..." Akutagawa responded to him one after another, caught his body, and let him fall into his arms the moment the tears fell.

He was panting weakly in Akutagawa's arms, all internal organs were contracting as if suffocating, the sound of every breath was almost crying, and even the trembling of every frame of the body visible to the naked eye was life. Countdown to the end.He has been marked for death.He is in Akutagawa's arms, obviously close at hand, yet so closely connected with Tianya.

It turns out that the distance between life and death is so close that we only need to exchange a look or a breath, so close that the word "life and death" can be used to cover the entire span.The severe toxicity made him cry in pain, his facial features were distorted, and he could only curl up into a shrimp shape in Akutagawa's arms, with his head and feet tightly hooked together.

"You...you didn't leave?" "No, Suehiro, I have...have not left."

never left?Little liar, if that's the case, then why, I can't find where you are?Suehiro Tetsuchang smiled and looked at Akutagawa's face.Akutagawa's skin was slightly dry due to staying up late and overworked, and the warm tears that kept rolling down on his dry skin should be a little painful.

He stretched out his hand and gently wiped the tears off Akutagawa's face.

My beautiful and mysterious little black eyes, my brightest star in Yokohama, little liar, lover, when you come to me again in this way, I may have cast my last glance at this world.

"Akutagawa, I really like..."

The light poured down, illuminating them as if they were in the early morning.A gentle sun rose in the early morning.So Akutagawa Ryunosuke could no longer see anything clearly.Can't see the heavy rain, can't see the green rhyme in the heavy rain.

"I really like...hiding." His voice gradually weakened, "I like it very much, so I have been hiding it and not saying it, and I have been hiding it..."

"I know, even if you keep hiding it, I know it." Akutagawa Ryunosuke stretched out his hand, and saw Suehiro Tetsugu's closed eyes through the gap between his fingers.It will never be opened again.

He passed by like a spark, and died in Akutagawa Ryunosuke's embrace in an instant, leaving only the spark to fly through the remaining ashes.That is life.Life is in full bloom in the light with an astonishingly magnificent posture, shining brilliantly.Even if only for a second or so.From the time when Akutagawa Ryunosuke's gaze fell on him until now, he finally ushered in a bloom that was crueler than withering.

The pure white light seemed like God had opened up the atmosphere to take this young life who lost his breath back home.

The street lamps shone into the wet ground, lighting the splashes of the raindrops.The darkness of night squeezed into the splash.Trees and plants sensitive to cold and wet weather swayed a pile of broken leaves, and the leaves sifted from the trees turned into dead ashes on the way abandoned by the wind, quietly curled up in the shade of the street corner and withered into mud, speechless died.

Edogawa Ranpo helped Akutagawa Ryunosuke to the secret room, let his body slowly lean on the soft head of the bed, to have a short rest.But Ryunosuke Akutagawa didn't get better because of this.Edogawa Ranpo asked him what's wrong, but he didn't answer, just vomited on his own, and finally couldn't vomit out anything except gastric juice, and could only paralyze in vain like a snake that had left its body, with At worst, the utterly lonely appearance passed out beside the bed.

When he woke up again, Edogawa Ranpo asked him what happened again.He looked up at the ceiling, moved his soft and white neck like a leech, and his throat core rolled up and down uneasily.

"Fukuchi Sakurachi confirmed that there is an inner ghost in the team, and has already begun to clean it up. Today he...he locked the closest people together alone, and I almost came to a dead end."

"Are you ok?"

"Someone took poison and died in order to keep me."

Edogawa ranpo took his hand and looked into his eyes.There was still a silver tear line sliding down the line of his sad eye socket.

"You did nothing wrong."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke shook his head in denial, trying to break free from his hand, but was held even harder and couldn't get rid of it.

"Listen, Akutagawa, you did nothing wrong. I don't know what happened to you, but if you encounter a situation where you have to die, then I can only say that the person who died is either you or the most The value of the results. The role of a spy is better than a whole division. The victory in the intelligence system may reverse the situation in the world. This is not a joke. It is a living lesson brought by the two world wars. I know you are It may be cruel to say that it was a big blow, but you have to pick yourself up right away because we haven't succeeded yet, and we can't slack off halfway."

"I felt so alone for the first time."

"If you were the one who died, how many people were involved? Mr. Po and I would be caught with clues, executed in secret, retaliated by those who saw us as thorns in the side, the armed detective society would be destroyed, and other us The underground party secretly contacted and supported, and all related anti-war organizations will be captured and hanged by the right/wing elements in the Ability Section, just like the Japanese special high-tech hanged Japan’s □□. Do you like Kobayashi Taki the most Two, he was beaten to death, and this kind of death may happen to your other friends in the next second. Think about it carefully, which is more terrifying and regrettable after your death or someone else's death? It's cruel, but Akutagawa." Edogawa wiped away the undried water marks on his eye sockets, "You didn't do anything wrong, I will always stand by your side. Even if the time comes, you have to betray me I also hope that you will betray me without hesitation at that time, and exchange my life for yours."

"My heart is empty."

"I'm with you."

"What if you can't be with me anymore?"

"Then you still have to go on, just like you insisted before, hiding until the last second."

"I understand."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke put away his look of loss, and slowly straightened his face, as if the loss and nostalgia just now were nothing but the smell of incense and candles, as long as he tightened his lips and blew or took a strong breath, all of them could be disintegrated .He turned his face away, silently staring at the lights on the ceiling and the halo around him.

Edogawa Ranpo didn't disturb him, and didn't force him to do anything, but used those bright colors to outline Akutagawa Ryunosuke's somewhat blurred outline in the orange or white halo.The aura exuding from Akutagawa Ryunosuke's body was much more cordial and stable than before.There is also a kind of loneliness that cannot be hidden at all.

When he felt this loneliness, Edogawa Ranpo's steady and calm appearance, which was hard work, finally couldn't hold on, and the persistent and almost ridiculous bravado just now showed its prototype, and it fell apart in an instant.Akutagawa Ryunosuke's gloomy and tearful eyes smashed his fragile defense wall, grabbed his lifeblood, silenced his resistance, and questioned his heart.Every tearful expression of Akutagawa Ryunosuke can become a rein to whip him. Although it can't be touched, it can make all kinds of pain of life and death penetrate into the bone marrow.

How romantic and fragile is the collarbone engraved with a few streaks of sun-colored brilliance under the pity of the lamplight, how smart and sad the dark shadow on the lower jaw covered by the fluttering pleated neckline seems to be against the Edogawa ranpo weeping, pouring out his heart.That pair of well-rounded and beautiful shoulders, the shoulders that people in the ancient Egyptian era had, and the shoulders that everyone in the Holy Roman Empire had, even after ten centuries, will still be a part of the human body, the shoulders that connect the scapula and clavicle Shoulders, shoulders so beautiful that people can't help but start to hold their breath, shoulders with high light and light texture, clean and delicate shoulders that are far better than moonlight, shoulders with lines like snow and mood like clouds, carrying the great beauty of human beings Light.Let the detective become a poet, make Begonia ashamed, make the sun, moon and stars think they are mediocre.

"Cry if you want." He said to Akutagawa Ryunosuke, "You can stop crying only if you cry out loud."

"The eyes are so sore that they can't get water out."

"Does your eye hurt? Let me see where it hurts. Is it the eyeball or the area around the eyelid? The fragile but troubled little black eyes..."

"Mr. Ranpo still feel sorry for me?"

"I can."

"I'm so afraid that one day I won't be worth it."

"You are a true hero."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke didn't struggle anymore, and let Edogawa Ranpo check whether his eyes were injured, held his hand, and gently hugged him without letting go.In this world, no matter what he has done, no matter what mistakes he has made or what he has lost, there is only Edogawa Ranpo who will continue to say that he is a hero without hesitation.

"Now can you tell me who died?"

"Suguang Iron Intestine."

"Fukuchi Sakura Chi is poisoned?"

"Ah."

"From this point of view, if it wasn't for Suehiro Tetsuchang, you might be the one who was poisoned to death today." Edogawa adjusted his glasses in a flurry, "This is a good opportunity to use Suehiro Tetsuchang's death to let the hound The other members fought back. You can tell who to start with based on the experience of being in hiding for so many days."

"Okura Yeko should be an easy target. Fukuchi Sakurachi doesn't intend to let her know the inside story, but she is worried that she will make trouble and develop a reactionary mentality."

"Very well, Po-kun and I will find a way to weave clues and compile them into a secret information file. Finally, you find the right opportunity and secretly send it to Okura Yeko. You must find the right opportunity, otherwise she may still choose to stand in line with Fukuchi Sakura." Crazy, things backfired, and I killed you for Fukuji Sakura in the end. She is a strong person with excellent strength and high plasticity. If we can let her know all the inside story and fall to us, it will definitely be the best help .”

"I understand."

"Look at the opportunity and create a conflict between her and Fukuji Sakurachi. It is best to be an irreconcilable conflict. The death of teammate Suehiro Tetsuchang is one of them, and the desire of the two of them for you is also one, but the latter is still there. Not powerful enough, your importance is still inferior to loyalty and ambition in their hearts. I still have to continue to wrong you, Akutagawa, you must make them regard you as the most important existence as soon as possible, and actively expose your weaknesses for your sake, Take the initiative to part ways. When the weakness is exposed, it is the time to win over the left/wingers of the Hound, and when we anti-war organizations rise up, you have to hide until then."

"understood."

"I want to emphasize again, now your life and value are above everyone else, no matter who dies for you, you cannot be shaken."

"Ah."

"Sell out everyone who is less important than you."

"clear."

"Do you have any other questions?"

"No more." Akutagawa Ryunosuke shook his head.

"Okay." Edogawa Ranpo sighed.

He sat there motionless at first, as if hesitating for something, after a long silence, he tried to touch Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Akutagawa Ryunosuke noticed his movements, and asked him quietly, what's wrong with you, Mr. Ranpo, is there anything else?So Edogawa Ranpo's hand stopped in mid-air.He took his hand back, and while pretending to lower his head to push the glasses frame, he repeated that there was nothing.

The phrase I love you almost came out of my throat.Now is not the chance to speak out, and there will never be another chance in this life.

No more, Akutagawa Ryunosuke muttered repeatedly.He asked Edogawa to support himself, facing the window wedged in by the moonlight, and knelt down with the highest Dogeza ceremony.

Under the parade of pale moonlight, everything looks poignant and exhausted like embers after burning.The tiny embers sipping the brilliance from nature, receiving the pity and benevolence from nature, danced quietly in the air, and finally fell wordlessly and died.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke stretched out his hands and bowed his head to the ground, bent his back, lowered his head, kissed the mother earth, and offered the most noble sacrifice to the lives--the lives that were taken away by the struggle caused by greed and violence. tribute.
