【Taizhong】The Aesthetics of Legs

"Did you just call Officer Nan and say something?"

"Just appease his violent temper."

In the cramped rental room, the dirt-smeared fan whirred to blow away the midday heat.

Osamu Dazai chatted with Aki Daimi about some trivial matters in life, while wandering his eyes around every corner of the room, and tapped his fingers on the table lightly.

"By the way, who is the girl up there?"

Qiu Daimei followed Dazai Osamu's gaze and saw the photo next to the family portrait. The girl in the photo had straight black hair and a high ponytail. She was very handsome. She seemed to have graduated from high school. Qiu Daimei made a big "yeah" gesture and smiled brightly.

Although the smiling face seemed a little blurred under the reflection of the sunlight outside the window.

"She is my friend." Qiu Daimei's eyes darkened, and she clenched the teacup in her hand, "She is very important to me, but she disappeared four years ago."

"Missing again?" Osamu Dazai asked suspiciously, "Same as your mother?"

"It's weird, isn't it...everyone around me disappears inexplicably, whether it's my mother or my friend..." Qiu Daimei lowered her head, making her expression unclear. "At first, I thought that Tomoko could not be contacted because of something. Later, when her mother found her, I found out that she was missing."

A moment of silence.

"Where's the body? Did you find it?"

"Tomoko's life is still uncertain." Qiu Daimei's eyes were empty, she looked down at her teacup, "But I will try my best to find her, whether she is alive or dead, I must find her .”

"why?"

"She represents my dream!" Qiu Daimei patted the table and stood up excitedly, "Can you easily give up your dream!"

Her father ran out of the kitchen in a panic when he heard the noise and wiped his wet hands on his apron, eager to find out what happened.

Osamu Dazai looked at her with his head half up, sighed, and waved his bandaged arm up and down a few times: "Calm down, Miss Akiyo."

Qiu Daimei sat down slowly: "I'm very sorry...I always seem to be very sensitive about the mother and friends."

"Where, obviously I asked the impolite question first." Osamu Dazai smiled indifferently.

Afterwards, their conversations could no longer be carried on, but each was thinking about their own concerns, until a phone call from Nanki Village ended the situation.

"Now? But...didn't you just let me go? Special treatment for special circumstances? Yes... yes..." Acting Akimi turned her head while clutching the phone, "Mr. Dazai, Officer Nan asked me to Go to the police station as soon as possible."

"It's time for me to leave too." Osamu Dazai nodded knowingly and stood up.At this time, Mr. Akiyo came out of the kitchen again, his hands were covered with oil, and he could vaguely smell the fragrance coming from the kitchen. He said incoherently, "Where's the food? Rimi, you don't want to stay?"

"Sorry Dad, I have something to do right now." Qiu Daimei hurriedly tied up her messy hair.

"But you haven't come back for a long time, I just want to cook you a meal, can you just take one bite, one bite?" Mr. Qiu Dai's tone was almost pleading.

Qiu Daimei's movements stopped, she looked at her father, and said in a very soft voice, "I'm really sorry, Dad."

Mr. Qiu Dai's whole body trembled, and he got into the kitchen tremblingly, his figure seemed a little lonely.

Osamu Dazai watched all this silently, without saying anything.Qiu Daimei opened the door, even though it was scorching hot, the wind outside was more refreshing than the inside of this room for no reason.

"Let's go, Dazai-san."

Osamu Dazai said that the target of the leg-stealer was him.

Zhong Yuan also walked into a coffee shop near the police station, and sat down in a random corner.The waiter came to ask him what he wanted, and he replied casually.

He hadn't studied wine much for coffee, but he did need something refreshing.

The leg-stealer's selection requirements for prey are female, black-haired, young, living in Yokohama and...

Beautiful legs.

In addition to the last three items in the Central Plains, there are at least two items that fail.Therefore, it can be guessed that after the Shenqi Yulizi incident, the target of the leg thief has changed.

Zhong Yuanzhong also put his coat aside, and took out the camera from his file bag to ponder.Is this the result of Osamu Dazai's investigation these days?

He turned on the power button, and the first photo that flashed was a dark and messy room with the curtains closed, and the computer screen in the center was shining white.The simple black layout, the dialogue displayed in white fonts, and the "DL" logo in the upper left corner can prove that this is the interface of the leg domain.Unpleasant site, Nakahara Chuya thought.

On August 8, the police began to investigate suspicious people along the East Road, especially those without regular workers.

100 reward coins.

On August 8, the police began to focus on investigating the case of Chihiro Asakawa, asking whether there were any customers in the store who had frequented Asakawa before his death but never showed up again.

200 reward coins.

On August 8th, because of the particularity of Yuriko Shenqi, the police began to mobilize a large number of police forces to investigate everything about Yuriko Shenqi, including asking the shop owners on the way to and from school around Shenqi whether any suspicious persons had talked to her. .

500 reward coins.

November 9rd...

From the beginning to the end, only "I" was talking in the dialog box, and the other party never responded, only the prompts to transfer the reward coins were displayed continuously.

So that's the case, Nakahara Chuya exerted a little force on his fingertips.Is this the secret of Aizawa Arima, and the reason why the leg thief can commit crimes frequently without showing his feet?It is not difficult for Aizawa Arima to sneak into his home to peek at Aizawa Arima's information, as long as the other party falsely claims that he is a "detective fan who is interested in TTOL cases" and lures him with reward coins. Horses are a breeze.

Ridiculous, all this is simply too ridiculous.The pending case that has not been solved for a long time, spent a lot of time and energy in the investigation, and strictly guarded against the black sheep, but the police did not know that there was something wrong inside.

Zhong Yuanzhong also continued to scroll down, and when it reached the last page, it was finally not a chat record, but a photo published on the leg field.Judging from the number of reposts and comments, the attention of this photo is not high, but Nakahara was also surprised to find that the ID who published this photo is the same person who made information transactions with Aizawa Arima.

In other words, it was the leg thief himself who published this photo.

In the photo is a beautiful silver bracelet with a silver leaf of the same texture in the middle, engraved with two cursive English letters "YA".

Under the bracelet was a piece of paper with seven words* crookedly written on it: I saw it.

Nakahara Chuya's brain suddenly exploded, as if he had realized something, and all the vague and seemingly incomprehensible things gradually became clear at this moment.

Also at the same time, a pair of hands slowly stretched out behind Nakahara Chuya.
