What do you usually do on a date?

If you ask this question to Osamu Dazai and Nakahara Chuya, they will answer that dating is generally to find a nice and clean place for vacation, dive, go racing, drink a few cups while enjoying the beautiful scenery, and then do it to the fullest at night One session, completely relaxing from body to mind;

But if you use it to ask Atsushi Nakajima and Akutagawa Ryunosuke, whose balance on the card is not so satisfactory, in their concept of dating is going shopping, watching movies and going to the aquarium (because Akutagawa accidentally likes small animals, although he does not admit it) , there are no other options.

So now Dazai and Chuya are sitting in the coffee shop, frantically making unsuitable bets based on the content of the young couple’s date, while watching Akutagawa, who is dressed the same as usual at work, get out of the taxi and Zhongya Island, and at the same time, like aunts and aunts in those relatives' homes, discussing that the two of them are actually together.

"Why didn't I hear anything about it beforehand?" Zhong Yuanzhong also took a sip of his coffee, "I only found out when I met Li Yuan on a date when I was drinking with Li Yuan in the bar last time."

"The company regulations are there. The two of them concealed it very well. I also guessed it from a few clues." Osamu Dazai took out his phone and flipped through it, then turned the screen to Chuya, "Here."

Nakahara also took a glance, and saw two candid shots put together on the screen: Atsushi Nakajima and Akutagawa were carrying something and the other was listening to someone's speech. The only bright spot was that they were wearing the same men's wrist on their exposed left wrists. surface.

Zhong, who also has a small collection of watches, stretched out two fingers and swiped the screen to enlarge the photo a little bit. He squinted his eyes and looked at it before nodding: "Earl BLACK-TIE series, you have a good eye."

Osamu Dazai put away his phone: "I haven't seen it in your collection. How much is it?"

"This kind of basic model is only 10,000+?" Zhong Yuanzhong also hesitated, "I can't remember, I haven't bought it."

"That's a big deal for them." Osamu Dazai raised his head and calculated, "It's equivalent to Dun Jun's salary for more than half a year—although I don't know who bought it."

"So you can judge that they are together just because they wear the same watch?" Zhong Yuanzhong also laughed unceremoniously, "It turns out that the intelligence team is doing things so rough now, and I am starting to worry about our department's business trips in the future." gone."

Faced with Osamu Daizai, he calmly dropped the last blockbuster: "Of course you can't just rely on the same watch, but you can customize the same watch with the other party's name engraved on the dial~"

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

Nakahara Chuya: "Can you know this too?"

Osamu Dazai looked at him with a smile on his chin: "How is it, is your Alpha powerful?"

So Zhongyuan Zhong also suddenly lost all curiosity about this matter.

The two young men who happened to be across the street chatted for a few words and then walked side by side to the other side of the commercial street. Chuya caught a glimpse of their actions out of the corner of his eye and changed the subject expressionlessly: "They're gone. We won't follow ?”

When he changed the subject, Dazai just smiled and didn't deliberately disrupt the stage, but raised his eyebrows and asked innocently: "Why do you follow? They play theirs, we play ours."

"...I thought your task today was to follow them." Zhong Yuan also tapped on the desktop to remind.

"Of course not, what misunderstanding do you have about my work today, my dear." Osamu Dazai said, "The company will send a call to a mission when their atmosphere is the best, we just need to be a qualified bystander and judge Does dating get in the way of their ability to be ready for work?"

He paused for a moment, and then said calmly: "And I already have all their date schedule in hand, we just need to find the time to rush over."

"..."

Nakahara Chuya has only two thoughts in his mind now. One is that working in the intelligence department has no human rights. You never know when your shameless boss will hack your phone; the other is that after being out for so long, he finally I belatedly realized that the purpose of the man in front of me calling me out was not as simple as "watching the excitement and gossip".

Is today a special day?He calmly went through it quickly in his mind: his birthday, Dazai's birthday, wedding anniversary...all had nothing to do with today.But after thinking about it for a few seconds, he gave up. To guess what Osamu Dazai was thinking, it would be better to stay the same and wait to see what tricks he wanted to play.

So he nodded, and gestured to Dazai for the empty cup with his expression unchanged: "I want to drink milk tea."

"...Are you sure you want to drink?"

"I want to drink." Zhong Yuanzhong also raised his chin towards him, "Go."

"Okay, milk tea." Dazai sighed, stood up with his wallet in his hand and muttered in a low voice, "I drank milk in the morning and coffee just now, if you can't eat at noon, you will regret it."

He stood up and walked towards the bar. Although the latter sentence was so soft that it was close to muttering to himself, Nakahara Chuya's ears moved slightly, and he finally heard it.

He blinked slightly, then raised the corners of his mouth involuntarily, and began to vaguely expect that Dazai Osamu would take him to eat something delicious at noon, so that he would bother to coax himself out of the house, and now he still has to hide it from himself .

Thinking of this, Nakahara Chuya turned his head in a good mood to look at the street scene outside the window.Under the sycamore tree that began to grow green leaves, passers-by in a hurry passed by here, and then all of them came into his eyes.The soothing jazz music in the coffee shop slowly flowed in the air, and the deep female voice whispered a moving love song affectionately.

A person was seated opposite, Zhong Yuan Zhong also didn't lift his head: "Sorry, there are people over there."

The stranger was silent for a few seconds, and then said in surprise with a slightly blunt accent: "Chuya! Is it really you?"

"?"

The voice sounded familiar, and Nakahara finally turned his gaze back to the handsome, brown-haired and green-eyed foreign man opposite him with deep facial contours...Spanish?

After a few seconds of identification, he still couldn't remember the identity of the person in front of him, and Zhong Yuanzhong also said suspiciously: "Sorry...you are?"

The handsome foreign boy immediately showed a hurt expression on his face: "Oh, no way, you actually forgot about me? But I have always remembered you in my heart these few years—why didn't you contact me anymore?"

Sir, I really don't understand what you are talking about.Nakahara Zhongya looked at him a little blankly, and at the same time, he was already impatient in his heart for this kind of behavior of strangers (those who can't remember) strike up a conversation without authorization.

I just heard the foreign boy still talking about how he found his old friend sitting by the window at a glance: "Yes, I actually didn't dare to believe that it was you at first, I thought it was similar to you Who else, or I miss you too much—because I really never thought that Chuya, who was so indifferent before, would show such an expression like an ordinary person one day."

Nakahara Chuya's patience is not much, and he was almost exhausted in the few words just now. However, after the foreign brother finished speaking, he was stunned, and suddenly remembered who was sitting in front of him——

In his heart, he uttered a swear word about his dullness just now, and he suddenly sat up straight and tried to draw a clear line with the other party: "Maybe you find it very pleasantly surprised, but I advise you to get up and leave this coffee shop or even this coffee shop immediately." A city, it would be best if you can take the next plane back home immediately. Because my Alpha—"

"What?!" The handsome foreign boy had a look of despair that the end of the world was coming, "You were marked?!"

"Chuya, I'm back." Osamu Dazai's voice sounded behind him, "But maybe you can introduce me... who is this?"

Never before in the Central Plains where I hoped that someone would disappear immediately, preferably with no afterimages left, remained expressionless and motionless, and slowly said the second half of the sentence: "—very narrow-minded, still a big Vinegar jar."

TBC.
