"Dazai-san, so you've been here! Ah! It's that lost child!"

“Mr. Dazai.”

A surprised voice came from afar, carrying the clear, youthful voice unique to a boy's age. Another voice came from a distance. Chuuya looked up. Because of the mask covering his face, Chuuya's vision wasn't very good, but he still saw the person coming at a glance.

Dressed in all white, he stood out in the crowd. Chuuya's gaze lingered on Atsushi's hair for a long time, and he suddenly thought that this person was suitable for the Five Signs of Decay. Of course, Chuuya also did not ignore the black figure with gradually changing hair next to him.

"...Looper rabbit?"

"Hahaha! Is this how you describe Akutagawa? It's surprisingly apt!"

In an instant, Dazai knew who this animal that had inexplicably come out of Chuuya's mouth was describing.

When Dazai burst out laughing, Chuuya realized that he had accidentally blurted out what he was thinking. Strangely, the word popped into his mind the moment he saw this person. Atsushi Nakajima, who was next to him, wanted to laugh, but the superpower of the person next to him was already stirring, so Atsushi Nakajima gave up the idea.

But the other party didn't even realize what was happening at first, right? So the real culprit is this bastard in front of us!

[Officially confirmed, Akutagawa, you are indeed an adorable lop-eared rabbit!]

【Luo Shengmeng!】

"How dare you insult me ​​like this, Rashomon!"

Before Chuuya could even look away from the comments, he heard a whooshing sound in his ear.

However, Chuuya's physical skills did not disappear with his memories. Facing Akutagawa's sudden activation of his superpower, he dodged with great agility. Just as the corners of his mouth turned up, he suddenly realized that this was a perfect opportunity to escape.

Chuuya and Akutagawa started fighting right away. Chuuya was so focused on how to escape smoothly that he didn't notice the hesitation in his opponent's movements. When he was not attacked as expected, Chuuya separated and looked up at Akutagawa, who was frowning.

Are you underestimating me?

Chuuya spoke in a sarcastic tone, his tone not very pleasant. Although he was thinking of using this opportunity to escape, the other party's attitude made him furious, while Dazai next to him had a bright smile.

Akutagawa's lips twitched as if he wanted to say something, but Dazai spoke up first, took a step forward, attracting Chuuya's attention, and gave Akutagawa a hand gesture.

"But you don't seem to be using your full strength either, do you, sir?"

"You really know how to talk a mile a minute!"

中也用舌头顶了顶后槽牙，不爽的咋舌，虽然很想把这个家伙按在地上狠狠的打一顿，但是看着对方那张欠揍的笑容，中也没来头的感觉到莫名的危险。

"Oh, is that so? Thank you for the compliment. But I'm just a delicate office worker, you know~"

Upon hearing this, Dazai suddenly adopted a shy demeanor, cupping his face in his hands.

Chuuya looked away; it was a bit too much for his eyes… How could someone be so shameless, able to speak with such pride despite being completely powerless? This was the deepest impression Dazai left on Chuuya during their first meeting after Chuuya lost his memory.

[Dazai, have you completely abandoned your image in front of Chuuya?]

[That little rabbit is really asking for a beating!]

[He started flirting even before he lost his memory]

Just as Chuuya was distracted by Dazai and pulled out of his battle state, preparing to make a sarcastic remark, the next second, Akutagawa's supernatural ability appeared behind Dazai and attacked Chuuya directly.

Chuuya's pupils contracted as the attack grazed past his ear. He dodged it thanks to his incredible flexibility, but his scalp throbbed. When he turned around, there was no further attack. Chuuya straightened up, his expression grim, but all of that was hidden by his mask.

"No matter the means, as long as the goal is achieved, that's fine, don't you think, Mr. Shorty?"

After saying this, Dazai snapped his fingers, and then the rope securing Chuuya's mask broke, causing the mask to slip off.

Any method that achieves the goal is a good method!

I forgive you, Dazai, on behalf of Chuuya.

[So cool!!! So this is where Chuuya was waiting!]

Akutagawa held his breath the moment the mask fell off. His usually expressionless face showed a rare hint of anticipation, but he was instantly disappointed when the mask actually fell off. As expected, it wasn't the person he had imagined. Only Dazai's smile suddenly widened.

The moment the mask fell off, Chuuya finally understood what Dazai's so-called purpose was. Although he was panicked for a moment, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he thought of the things Dostoevsky had drawn on his face. After glancing at the wailing in the comments, Chuuya put on a smile again.

[...If we're just talking about makeup, in terms of results, Tuo Zong is still stronger.]

How can Chuuya's once magnificent face have become so forgettable? What can I say to praise you?

[Don't worry, everyone, you've been scammed.]

Although I don't know who those enemies who were hiding in the shadows and relentlessly pursuing me were, if the words in the sky were true, then the veracity of this matter would be questionable. However, I knew that I would inevitably face tests upon returning.

Thinking about this gave him a headache, and he had no intention of continuing to deal with Dazai and the others. He glanced at the three people opposite him, then fixed his gaze on Nakajima Atsushi, who hadn't yet realized what was happening. Finally, he looked at the child who had loosened his clothes because of Dazai's words and didn't know who to believe.

Chuuya sighed inwardly. He hadn't forgotten what Chuuya had said when he ran over. It was clear that he knew the child. Although the child looked a little dull, Chuuya could feel a little more at ease with him around.

Finally, Chuuya fixed his gaze on Dazai, meeting the latter's eyes.

"You'd better pray you never end up in my hands."

After saying this, without waiting for their reaction, she lightly touched the ground with her toes, and a red aura of supernatural power appeared on her body. She then quickly left this place of trouble, clutching her mask.

"Why did you ask me, Mr. Dazai, just now...?"

"Shhh."

Dazai put his index finger to his lips, gesturing for silence, which made Akutagawa swallow what he was about to say.

After the person's back was completely out of sight, Dazai lowered his finger, squatted down, and searched for something on the ground.

"Found it"

"What are you looking for, Mr. Dazai?"

Atsushi Nakajima, pulling the now-calmed child closer with curiosity, then noticed that Dazai was holding a small tuft of hair that had been severed by Akutagawa's attack.

"If I remember correctly, the Mafia should have the DNA information of one of your executives, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Dazai."

Akutagawa stood behind Dazai and replied in a deep voice, taking out a few strands of hair with follicles that he had just plucked from Chuuya's head during the chaos. Dazai glanced at them but did not take them, instead vigorously rubbing the broken hair in his hand.

Because the hair that was rubbed was a one-time hair dye, it started to fade, revealing the true hair color underneath.

"Dazai-san, you already discovered it?"

"No, it's just a slight guess."

"But that person doesn't look like Mr. Chuuya at all, and even their eye color is different!"

"Foolish Tiger, there's something called disguise, and the physical habits of the Central Plains cadres haven't changed at all."

As he finished speaking, Akutagawa's voice suddenly turned somber, and his expression became grim. It was the sign of the five signs of decay in a celestial being.

"Huh? It's that amazing? But Chuuya-san must have lost his memory too, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't have reacted like that."

"Isn't that obvious at a glance? You stupid tiger!"

"Damn Akutagawa, can you please stop quoting me in every sentence?"

"cannot."

Nakajima Atsushi was furious when he heard Akutagawa Kofumi, who had insulted him as if he were a comma, utter two concise words.

"This answer is really not surprising at all..."

Ignoring the argument between the two behind him, Dazai looked at the severed hair in his hand, his interest growing stronger.

"The appearance should be a disguise, and the hair is dyed with a temporary dye, but the last superpower used was gravity, right? I still have the other person's hair on my hand. Once the results come out, we can basically confirm it directly, but I still have one question."

Dazai's expression was unusually serious, as if he were facing some enormous problem.

"What's the problem, Mr. Dazai?"

The two stopped arguing, and Nakajima Atsushi asked curiously, and even Akutagawa looked over with some curiosity.

The Grand Tutor clenched his fist and pounded it into his palm, his eyes widening slightly.

"Since books can change reality, why didn't Dostoevsky make Chuuya taller?"

...Silence is Yokohama today.

"Mr. Dazai, I need to send the header for matching, so I'll take my leave now."

After a moment of silence, Akutagawa suggested leaving. Dazai waved his hand, and Atsushi Nakajima's lips twitched slightly. He didn't know what to say. Should he say something or not? As expected of Mr. Dazai.

[Haha, Chuuya still got caught!]

However, everything seems to be going too smoothly.

The Mafia is fiercely protective of its own; the signs of decay and decline: danger.

[You've completely become the tsukkomi (straight man)! Atsushi-kun!]

There are just too many flaws; I don't even know where to begin complaining.

Even if you have amnesia, even if the person is long gone, you still have to vent a few words, right?

[Little Rabbit Osamu hasn't been hit in too long, so he got beaten up again.]

[Actually, this is something you can also refer to. It's the only way Chuuya can grow taller right now, since books can change reality, right?]

You didn't let Chuuya off the hook either.

[They're all demon pills]

Chuuya, who had already reunited with Sigma, twitched his lips. He suppressed the urge to go back and beat that guy up, vowing he would never let him off the hook next time!
