19 Chapter 19

◎Knife yourself◎

"Absent from work?"

"Still 14 days?"

Members of the Armed Detective Agency quickly saw the group message.

"Mr. Murasaki probably just wants to go out and relax?" Tanizaki Junichiro guessed.

He glanced at the message hesitantly.

It is obvious that you can ask for leave, but you use the word "absenteeism".

"Based on Mu Ye-kun's personality, he is indeed the type who would mistake rest for absence from work." Everyone accepted this well and treated it as if Mu Ye Xue Che had applied for a two-week vacation.

Nakajima Atsushi and Izumi Kyoka returned to the detective agency safely. After obtaining permission from Fukuzawa Yukichi, Izumi Kyoka successfully stayed in the detective agency.

"There's something very strange. Why did the Special Ability Agents Department suddenly take action?"

On that ship, members of the Special Ability Department detained Ryunosuke Akutagawa for very legal and legitimate reasons.

"The people from the Special Ability Special Affairs Department retreated very quickly." Kunikida Dopo frowned. He was unable to catch up with the group of people and ask them the reason.

Nakajima Atsushi raised his head and spoke hesitantly, "The group said there were dangerous creatures on board and they wanted to inspect the ship. Akutagawa Ryunosuke was reluctant to cooperate, so he was detained."

He vaguely remembered that Akutagawa Ryunosuke tried to attack the opponent, but was ambushed and given an anesthetic injection.

Nakajima Atsushi was in awe.

It turns out that official organizations will resort to underhanded tactics when they can't defeat them.

Ding-a-ling.

Kunikida Doppo's cell phone rang and he answered it.

"Hello? Hello? Someone fell into the water!!"

Kunikida Doppo stood up suddenly: "What?!"

The person on the other side reported a location, which was by a river. "This gentleman has your contact information. Please come over quickly."

Kunikida Dopo was stunned. Suddenly, there was a cough on the other end of the phone, and a few anxious words such as "Are you okay?" and "Should we call an ambulance?"

A familiar voice sounded, and Dazai Osamu drew out his tone, "What do you mean by falling into the water? I was jumping into the river to commit suicide."

"But Kunikida could come pick me up. It's really cold here."

Kunikida Doppo: "..."

He hung up the phone expressionlessly.

HOT*【Tonic medicine, Xiaoye, why are you in solitary confinement?】

[Muye Xueche I hate that you don’t have a mouth ah ah ah ah ah TT

At first I thought Mu Ye really didn't want to get involved in this matter and was planning to give up...

Woohoo, I'm sorry, I was wrong. It turns out he's just hard on the outside but soft on the inside, and he doesn't have a mouth.]

1L [Muye fans died instantly after watching the latest episode]

2L [Muye Xueche, let's just speak openly about whatever we have to say, okay? Okay.]

3L [I thought this tough-mouthed, soft-hearted character was just there to liven up the atmosphere and act as a comedian... How come he actually has a knife?!]

4L [I don’t understand what Mu Ye Xue Che is thinking, but if I put myself in his perspective, I’m really suffocating.

He was put in solitary confinement for saving someone, but no one else knew about it.

In order not to worry everyone, he even said he was going to be absent from work.

5L［Muye Xueche: I want to skip work

Detective Agency: The child is tired and wants to take a vacation.

6L [The above comment is even more heart-wrenching. The atmosphere is clearly harmonious...]

7L［Everyone is so nice woo woo］

In the confinement room, Mu Ye Xue Che leaned against the wall bored, his pupils faintly reflecting the forum.

[You can start praising me now.] Ye Yueshen said.

The system closed its eyes and praised: [You are so strong, host! You are the strongest class I have ever led!]

Ye Yue Shen raised his chin: [Yes, this is me... Of course, the system is also very good. ]

Everyone tacitly ignored their previous failures and started to flatter each other in business.

The room was empty except for a bed and a window.

Fortunately, the system is right next to me, and I can chat while browsing the forum.

It's a knife.

[Closing his eyes peacefully, I always thought that Mu Ye Xue Che and his father were the kind of rebellious son and rebellious father who battled wits and courage.

This episode came out and you tell me their relationship isn’t good???

Who was Mu Ye Xue Che complaining to before that? ?

1L [This is easy to explain. Even if the relationship is bad, seeing your son being bullied wouldn't be indifferent. It's reasonable to intervene.]

2L [Stop, stop, stop, is this still a comedy?]

3L [Muye Xueche stayed in the confinement room for 14 days]

4L [Boy Hid in the Closet for 50 Years]

5L [Funny? The part where Mori Ogai and the director are on the phone is pretty funny]

6L [Mori Ogai gave the above post a thumbs-up]

7L [Hahahahahaha, the father and son, one is obsessed with face, the other doesn't care about face at all]

8L [Director: What is face? Can you eat it?]

People in the forums were shouting that they didn't want to be stabbed, but in reality the pain value didn't increase much. It climbed up to 3% intermittently, and then fell to 2%.

On the eighth day of Murasakibara Xueche's absence from work, a problem arose with a completed commission. The person in charge of the commission was Murasakibara Xueche. While comforting the client, Nakajima Atsushi called Murasakibara Xueche.

Beep.

No one answered.

Nakajima Atsushi tried again, with the same result.

He hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to contact the client, intending to help the client solve the problem first.

"My cat is missing again!" the client said in panic, "Did someone take it away again?!"

Nakajima Atsushi went to the client's home. He and the client searched the house together. The client called the cat's name and tears were about to fall.

Nakajima Atsushi comforted the client and quickly searched the house.

"Here."

Nakajima Atsushi half-knelt on the ground and dragged out the cardboard box from under the sofa. The black cat was curled up in a ball and was sleeping soundly.

The cat didn't respond to its owner because it was sleeping so soundly.

This was a misunderstanding.

The client cried with joy and kept thanking Nakajima Atsushi.

Nakajima Atsushi returned to the detective agency and told others that he couldn't get through to Kurome Yukie.

Even if I am absent from work, it is impossible for me to not reply to any messages.

During these seven days, Mu Ye Xue Che seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.

Everyone in the detective agency gradually realized that something was wrong.

Kunikida Doppo also made a call.

No one answered.

Looking back now, Mu Ye Xue Che's condition was indeed not right at that time. He left directly after sending the message.

"Could something have happened to Mr. Muye?" Nakajima Atsushi was a little worried.

Everyone called Mu Ye Xue Che a few more times.

“No contact at all.”

It is very likely that Mu Ye Xue Che is in danger.

Edogawa Ranpo glanced at them and slowly looked away. There were many snacks stuffed in the small cabinet in front of him.

Mu Ye Xue Che made preparations and offered all the snacks that should be offered in the next 15 days in advance.

The deal was done.

The great detective chewed with satisfaction.

Don't worry, Mu Yejun, he won't reveal any information to anyone else!

Everyone over there was still discussing: "14 days, could it be that Mu Ye-jun encountered some trouble but didn't want us to know, so he said he would be absent from work?"

Dazai Osamu had just returned to the detective agency and listened for a while.

"Why don't we go to the Special Ability Division and ask?" Dazai Osamu had some ideas. He said, "If Murasakibara-kun is really missing, the Special Ability Division will definitely take action."

Kunikida Doppo calmed down and said, "You're right."

————

cafes.

The three of them sat by the window, Dazai Osamu propped up his chin and stirred the drink in front of him.

"Muye Xuetetsu?" Sakaguchi Ango was surprised. "Are you looking for him?"

Didn’t he remember that Mu Ye Xue Che joined the detective agency?

"Yes, do you know where he is?" Kunikida Doppo asked, "I can't get through to him on the phone."

The expression on the other side was a little strange.

"I do know a little bit..." Sakaguchi Ango adjusted his glasses.

Dazai Osamu looked at him and said, "Then tell me, Ango."

Sakaguchi Ango paused.

"If I'm not mistaken, Mu Ye Xue Che should be in solitary confinement," he said.

After the previous operation failed, the member who contacted Ango Sakaguchi came to see him in the infirmary.

Ango Sakaguchi deeply understood what a real chatterbox is.

The man thought Ango Sakaguchi would be bored, so he sat down on the edge of the bed and started chatting about gossip, from the Special Ability Department to the Port Mafia, mixed in some unconfirmed gossip.

Lying on the hospital bed, Ango Sakaguchi was forced to listen. His good memory allowed him to remember all the gossip.

"Kuroba Yukito and that guy don't have a good relationship. He doesn't care about Kurome-kun and puts him in solitary confinement whenever there's a problem." In response to Dazai Osamu's request, Sakaguchi Ango revealed everything he knew. "A week ago, Kurome Yukito took control of the Special Ability Division team without authorization, causing a conflict with the Port Mafia and even detaining a member of the Mafia. So, he's most likely been put in solitary confinement."

"There's another thing I'm not sure of, but there's a rumor that Mu Ye Xue Che once used the director's connections to make a deal with the leader of the Port Mafia..."

"It's true," Dazai Osamu replied, "The rumor is true."

Sakaguchi Ango fell silent.

This most outrageous gossip is actually true?

On the other side, in the confinement room.

The pain value instantly rose to 8%, and the system was relieved: [Finally getting back on track.]

If the pain value continues to remain at 0%, it will begin to doubt itself.

As soon as the system finished sighing, the 8% pain value suddenly cleared to zero.

It was like a bug had occurred, it soared in an instant and then quickly returned to normal.

The system and Hazuki Shin at the same time:?

Where did that huge pain value go?

When Ye Yueshen opened the forum, he was overwhelmed by all kinds of crying posts.

[Half of the ten years were spent in solitary confinement. A normal person would have developed psychological problems, but Mu Ye Xue Che surprisingly had no problems at all.]

No wonder he's so interested in the detective agency... So, when he was in solitary confinement, he only had one newspaper to read.

[Animation Team, are you going to kill me?]

Ye Yue Shen:? ?

Even before opening the post, I could tell something was wrong just by looking at the title.

Wait, this isn't right!

Mu Ye Xue Che’s past has not yet been revealed, how did the forum know about it?

[Everyone in the detective agency is ready to rescue someone, sob, I said this is a healing show! ]

【Warm and reassuring】

The system then said: [The healing plot will reduce the pain value.]

Hazuki Shin: [……]

Is this mission still possible?

He casually clicked on a post and roughly understood what had happened through the discussion on the forum.

There was a small problem with the commission that Mu Ye Xue Che was in charge of. The detective agency couldn't contact him, so they went to the Special Ability Department to look for someone -

That commission was a misunderstanding.

Ye Yueshen suspected that he was being targeted by this world.

Everything was clearly arranged, but a mistake caused a gap.

One person is in control and becomes autistic.

The windows of the solitary confinement room were tightly sealed, and the only sound in the room was Mu Ye Xue Che's breathing.

After a long while, Ye Yueshen suddenly said, "I have an idea for a new account."

The pain value increased three times in total.

The first time was when it was learned on the forum that Hayato Himuro ate poison while thinking it was candy, the second time was when Kurome Yukito was put in solitary confinement, and the third time was when Kurome Yukito's past was revealed.

Two out of the three times were due to Ma Jia’s tragic life experience.

[The script for Vest Number Three could be to use himself as a knife.]

Knife yourself.

Ye Yue Shen said, [And paired with an indifferent companion.]

【……】

The system thought for a while before speaking.

There is an organization that meets your requirements.
