Chapter 37 Encounter (?

Yokohama is a strange city, and the strangest thing about it is its distribution of power.

Although there is no explicit regulation, it is true that some government powers have been stolen or occupied by the mafia, such as public security jurisdiction.

Apart from Yokohama, which city needs Mafia patrols?

The Yokohama Police Station is just a decoration, they are used to being bombed.

As the new mayor of Yokohama, Tsushima Eiji must come into contact with some powerful underground forces, especially the port mafia. Rather than cooperating, it is better to say that they are tacitly checking and balancing each other.

The underground forces cannot but give face to the government, and the government sometimes also needs to provide some convenience in harmless areas.

It’s not that the government doesn’t want to get rid of some guys, but as for the port mafia, they have been rooted in Yokohama for decades and it’s not so easy to eradicate them.

There is also the issue of people with special abilities.

Dazai Osamu also couldn't understand why Yokohama couldn't try to recruit all the supernatural people. The neighboring countries were doing a good job and making full use of their resources. But Yokohama's supernatural people were still against the government. To put it bluntly, they just didn't want to give them treatment, and they used a lot of means to exploit them, which had no deterrent effect at all.

Now the two sides are fighting back and forth, and neither can do anything to the other.

"Ah, dealing with those guys is killing me."

On the busy street, a man in a white coat was holding the hand of a blonde girl, with surprisingly large dark circles around his eyes.

"Aren't these what you're supposed to do? Oh, stop complaining. My ears are getting calluses from hearing you complain." The blonde girl broke free from his hand and trotted into the dessert shop.

The man dragged his heavy steps and paid the bill for the girl who was already sitting at the table and ordering.

"Our store has an event recently. If you can vote for Dazai Osamu on the idol popularity list, you can get a 20% discount on your purchase." The clerk said with a sweet smile.

"Ah, how do I participate?"

"Just look at the process above, and give it to me for verification after you cast your vote." The clerk placed the printed flowchart on the table.

After casting his vote according to the procedure, Mori Ogai looked at the layout around the dessert shop and exclaimed, "The store manager really likes Dazai Osamu."

There are posters on the walls, knitted dolls on the counter, and even the songs played in the dessert shop are sung by Dazai Osamu.

Although he is old and very busy with work, Mori Ogai still knows a little about this idol, or rather, he has some understanding of this group. After all, there are fans of this group in his seemingly clean company and the Port Mafia.

The marriage rate among members of the Port Mafia is not high. After all, it is a bloody job. If you are not careful, you will die. Even if they get married, many of them find someone inside. And among those who get married, even fewer have children. This leads to many members with great mental pressure starting to raise children in cyber. Basically, they raise several children in eclipse.

As for the Corporation, during the annual meeting, someone even wished that the company could pay for Eclipse to sing a song. It was okay if she didn't sing, it would be nice to just sit there and let them enjoy the sight.

Of course, Mori Ogai coldly threw this wish into the trash can. What a joke. How could he afford this money? He was almost penniless.

Your boss asked you to make a wish and you really dared to make it.

"I also want to attend Eclipse's handshake event—" Alice held up her fork with a puffed-up face.

Mori Ogai listened to the discussion of the girls at the opposite table and looked like he had a headache.

"Alice, handshakes are boring. They're not fun."

"You haven't been there, so how do you know it's not fun?" Alice didn't buy it.

"Alice, you heard it all. The tickets for the handshake event are all sold out."

Mori Ogai had to persuade her with all her might before she gave up the idea.

They couldn't stay outside for too long. Mori Ogai had been in office for less than a year, and there were a lot of things to deal with, including the acceptance of the former boss's connections. Moreover, not everyone in the Port Mafia believed in him...

Mori Ogai sometimes regretted that he did not have enough time to find the right person to serve as a witness, so that he felt good for a while when he killed the boss with a knife, but he felt dizzy dealing with various subsequent suspicions.

When they passed by a small alley, a figure walking quickly with his head down passed by them, grabbed the corner of Mori Ogai's clothes and whispered, "Please, please, can you help me block it?"

"Ah? Oh, of course." Mori Ogai was like an ordinary kind passerby, pulling Alice together to block the entrance of the narrow alley.

After a while, two girls wearing masks and holding cameras passed by, muttering something angrily, stomping their feet and walking to the other side.

After making sure that the two girls would not come back, a furry head slowly popped out from behind Mori Ogai, and then heaved an exaggerated sigh of relief.

“Thank you so much.”

Dazai Osamu was very familiar with the two girls, so familiar that it gave him a headache. They were sasaeng fans. Usually sasaeng fans would work together and would not act in groups. But they always acted in pairs. If it weren't for the system, they would have almost teamed up to sneak into the hotel room where they were staying.

Even Zhe Ye's mysterious disappearance skills are greatly reduced to them. They are truly a pair of gods.

I didn't expect to meet him today when I just came out to eat crab dishes.

Bad luck.

I should have disguised myself earlier, but disguise is so troublesome.

Just now, when he was eating dessert surrounded by someone, Mori Ogai saw the beautiful mandarin orange eyes above the mask and immediately recognized who was in front of him.

"Ji-chan!" The blonde girl looked at the boy with sparkling eyes.

"Miss, do you know me? It's an honor." Dazai Osamu pulled down his mask and spoke sweet words as if they were free.

"Thank you very much for your help just now, young lady." A dimple appeared on his lips, and Dazai Osamu bent down slightly and stretched out his hand.

"You're welcome." Alice raised her head proudly and extended her hand to shake hands.

When the two hands touched, Alice and Dazai Osamu's expressions were stunned at the same time, and the next second, the cute girl disappeared on the spot.

The ability just triggered...

Dazai Osamu was surprised that this girl turned out to be a superpower.

He blinked his eyes and met the deep gaze of the man in the white coat with innocent eyes.

He tilted his head slightly: "Huh?"

"Aji?"

A vague voice came from the distance. Dazai Osamu stood up and showed a shining professional smile, "Sorry sir, I may have to go first."

Dazai Osamu pulled up his mask, quickly passed him, and nimbly climbed over the wall to leave.

Watching the people leave, Mori Ogai stood quietly where he was. Alice appeared beside him again. She no longer expressed her dissatisfaction like a spoiled young lady. The two of them looked surprisingly similar in their quiet appearance.

"I'm so excited, Alice."

"He's the young master of the Tsushima family, and he's also a big star."

Join the Mafia? Do you want to be photographed by paparazzi while on a mission?

Mori Ogai sighed silently. This is a nullification ability...

Meeting the right person at the wrong time is simply torture.

"The new leader of the Port Mafia."

Dazai Osamu, who was supposed to leave, appeared in the alley again, sat on the wall, swinging his long legs, and watched from afar two figures, one big and one small, gradually disappearing.

"Is this who I pledge allegiance to in the other world?"

【The word "loyalty" is wrong. 】

A pink book with "The Idol Law" written on the cover flew out of the void.

Dazai Osamu snorted: "Of course I know, boss, just say it."

He did come out to eat crab meat dishes, but he also took the opportunity to find the reward given by the system when he was a child.

It was the "cold-faced" book that was now floating next to him.

【Heh.】

The book was very resentful towards this guy who had ignored it for nearly ten years. He had clearly given the news of the hookup so early, but in the end he had never come to Yokohama. After coming to Yokohama, it took him half a month to remember to pick it up.

It's simply callous.

Dazai Osamu slapped it with an expressionless face, and the book spun twice in the air, with the pages spread wide open.

It's clearly the appearance of a book, but you can tell from the disbelief in the expression.

Dazai Osamu was not going to tolerate it. Recalling the comments from fans when he played the role of a tyrannical young master, he imitated them and said, "I hit you. Did you say thank you?"

I was dizzy, a little bit unbelievable, and a little embarrassed. [Thank you, thank you. ]

This time it was Dazai Osamu who remained silent.

He was so scared that he simply rolled himself up into a cylinder and hid in Dazai Osamu's shirt pocket.

Dazai Osamu took it out speechlessly, and the book floated aside quietly like a chicken.

After receiving the book, Dazai Osamu briefly flipped through it, and it was all about his life in parallel worlds. He was very curious at first, because the system basically chose a different world every time, and he had never seen his own equivalent.

After seeing several worlds, Dazai was shocked and threatened Shu fiercely: "Tell me, did you do this on purpose? Why am I so miserable in every world?"

[It’s just a normal life. How can it be so tragic? It’s like this in every world.] The book doesn’t understand.

Dazai Osamu's eyes widened: "Death of relatives and friends, loss of job, becoming a social slave, and seeking death, you say this is a normal life?!"

The book twisted its head, [How can I explain this? Basically, every isotope in your world is like this. ]

[Eh! But there are also surprises. There are also people who joined the Supernatural Special Agents Division at the very beginning, joined the Rat of the Dead House, or became the boss of the Port Mafia. ]

Dazai Osamu: "Don't tell me about the world of the Port Mafia boss. Are you trying to scare me to death? This is no longer a corporate slave. This is a fully automatic working robot!"

"Tsk, there's definitely something wrong. With my intelligence, how could every world be unsatisfactory?" Dazai Osamu shook the book hard, "Tell me quickly, are you trying to scare me on purpose? If you don't, I'll throw you into the toilet!"

Book: [Your Majesty! I am innocent! It was not me, you did it yourself! ]

"Hmm?" Dazai narrowed his eyes.

[There are a few who live happily, and then they hide their own world. 】

Osamu Dazai: "..."

People are evil.

"Why, I can't watch it because he hides it?"

[No, what else? ]

"Get out of the way, you piece of trash. I'm going to find the system." Dazai Osamu slapped it again coldly and ruthlessly.

The book was hit hard by the physics and language and was cornered and motionless.

Life is not worth it.
