That's so unfair!

[hhhhhh Dazai forced into a horse stance]

It's a 'group'.

[A memorable scene is about to unfold]

[Dazai is about to set up a trap]

He only glanced at the passing comments out of the corner of his eye. In front of Dazai, Chuuya rarely paid special attention to the comments; that guy's observation skills were simply outrageous.

Although the comment was right in front of Chuuya's eyes, following his gaze, Dazai was the kind of person who could detect even the slightest fluctuation in someone's eyes. Before Dazai defected, he was in charge of interrogating people, and without exception, everyone he interrogated revealed all the information they had.

But that one glance was enough to capture crucial information. 'Combination', huh? He remembered it.

"Oh, by the way, I have some news for you~ Chuuya, there will be a meeting of the five executives tomorrow."

Dazai's voice was low and hoarse, but his words made Chuuya instantly serious, and disbelief flashed in his eyes.

"Do you think I'd believe your nonsense? These kinds of meetings are only held to decide on the organization's future development, and if they're going to be held, we'll give them a few days' notice in advance."

Although Chuuya said that, the dagger in his hand stood up, and the person in front of him was Dazai, which made him believe it a little more.

"Well, what I'd like to say is that I sent a letter to the organization's higher-ups a few days ago, Chuuya?"

"Chuuya, how about we make a bet? I can guarantee right now that you won't kill me. Not only that, you'll also tell me where the bounty hunter is, and you'll walk away with your toes pointed inwards, speaking in a spoiled princess tone."

"ha?"

Chuuya's face was full of doubt and disbelief. He couldn't believe he would do such a thing, but a few beads of cold sweat still appeared on his forehead, and he had a bad feeling.

"You should know that my predictions are absolutely infallible, Chuuya."

"Given this situation, you still dare to say it's this big...?"

Chuuya hesitated for a moment, but then suddenly seemed to realize something and his expression went blank.

"letter?"

Are you referring to a letter?

Dazai wore a confident smile.

"That's right~ It's just a letter, think about it carefully."

This is what I wrote in the letter: "The day Dazai dies will be the day your secret is revealed." How about that? Not bad, right? Concise and clear, isn't it?

"You bastard, this way I won't be able to execute you without my permission."

Chuuya quickly understood Dazai's intention, gripped Dazai's neck tightly, and said through gritted teeth.

"Ahem, you're quite clever, Chuuya. So, shall we make a move?"

Dazai looked at Chuuya with a smile, waiting for his answer.

Chuuya paused for a moment, then abruptly withdrew his hand from Dazai's neck and turned to leave.

"So you're not planning to kill me, Chuuya? Ah, what a pity."

He didn't turn back and continued walking out, the smile on Dazai's lips fading slightly.

"What do you think of the plot where Chuuya is expelled from the organization because of me?"

Dazai's words caused Chuuya's pupils to contract.

"You schemed against me? You planned from the beginning to make me make the worst choice?"

Chuuya turned around and stared at Dazai, his expression grim.

"After all, Chuuya gave me such an unforgettable gift right from the start—I have to return the favor!"

Dazai, with a smug smile on his face, spoke in a flippant tone.

"Huh? I'll kill you one day."

"By the way, Chuuya, if you're the last one to come see me, and I run away after you leave, won't that make you suspect that I deliberately let you escape? If I pretend to be someone else, I'll definitely be suspected of that!"

"You bastard, what exactly do you want!"

Chuuya, unable to bear it any longer, turned around and saw Dazai with a suspicious blush on his face and a smug expression and tone.

"Actually, if Chuuya behaves well, I could pretend to have been rescued. So, Chuuya, why don't you consider it?"

"Who would believe someone like you who's all talk and no action?"

Chuuya pursed his lips. He knew Dazai wouldn't do that, but he couldn't help but tease him.

"Chuuya probably knows this in his heart too, right? I always keep my word on this matter."

“Akutagawa is in charge of the human-tiger matter. Recently, there have been many outsiders coming because of it. I am in charge of night patrols, and I unexpectedly learned that the bounty person you are interested in is an organization called ‘The Group’.”

Chuuya then revealed the information he had learned through the comments, using a seemingly reasonable excuse.

"Although it's pretty much what I expected, I didn't expect Chuuya to know this information. That saves me the trouble of investigating. That's great."

Chuuya turned around, picked up the coat he had dropped earlier, and waved to Dazai behind him.

I was thinking about investigating that organization. If it was mentioned in the comments, it must have something special about it. Maybe it would even become our enemy in the future.

"I've told you everything, now get lost! I'll definitely not let you get away with this next time, Dazai!"

"Thanks for your concern, Chuuya! But Chuuya, have you forgotten something?"

[High-energy warning ahead]

[The iconic scene is coming soon]

【The young lady has arrived!】

[This is not an example.]

[Are you using Chuuya as a comma? Dazai, don't you want to see how many times you've called Chuuya's name lately?]

[Hahaha, is Dazai trying to make up for all the times he hasn't called out in the past few years?]

【Here comes the young lady】

[The cunning Daishintai, the strongest Nakaya-san]

Dazai's reminder also brought to mind the last sentence he had forgotten: walking with pigeon toes and speaking in a spoiled young lady tone...? Spoiled young lady?

Chuuya's pupils dilated. He finally understood everything. It turned out that the ominous premonition he had back then was real. Chuuya finally understood why the comments on the screen called him "Young Lady." But compared to that, he would rather never have known.

It was all that bastard Dazai's fault after all!

And that bastard was still urging him on from behind. Chuuya clenched and unclenched his fists, and his ears were completely red. He knew that Dazai wasn't the only one who could see him in this embarrassing state.

Chuuya took a deep breath, his whole body trembling. After mentally preparing himself, Chuuya turned around, his knees bent inward and pressed together. He moved gracefully, imitating the noble lady he had seen at the banquet before, pointing his index finger at Dazai and speaking in a high-pitched voice.

"Dazai, you bastard! They won't give you another chance next time!"

Chuuya's eyes were already being bombarded by the barrage of comments. Just as he had finally mentally prepared himself, he turned around and saw a barrage full of comments, all saying the same thing, calling him "Young Lady".

In addition, many more onlookers posted "hahahaha," which made Chuuya's popularity soar, literally.

Seeing Dazai's lack of reaction, Chuuya's brow twitched. Shouldn't he at least laugh at him?

"I told you there won't be a next time... You bastard, why don't you laugh!"

In the end, Chuuya still couldn't accept Dazai's completely unresponsive attitude, so he cursed and left.

[You're upset again because he actually smiled, honey]

Please, this is just cute!

[If you don't understand, just ask. Is this a reward for Dazai in the middle of the story?]

[It seems the old woman, who appears to be the Grand Preceptor, got to enjoy watching.]

[Dazai must be stunned!]

As I watched the comments scrolling by, I began to recall Dazai's expression and actions at the end.

He seemed to be frozen in place, without any reaction. And during the conversation in the dungeon, Dazai did seem to call out his own name after every sentence he spoke.

Chuuya paused, his expression stiffened, and then returned to normal.

Oh dear, this is Osamu Dazai! You're just scaring yourself.

Dazai in the dungeon was indeed in bad shape. It wasn't until Chuuya left that Dazai belatedly blinked, covered his face with his hand, and his ears, which were covered by his hair, turned slightly red.

"What? It's because she's short and it doesn't look out of place, plus she has long hair, that's too unfair."

Dazai muttered a few words in a low voice, so soft that even if someone got close to him, they wouldn't be able to hear him.

When he got up again, it was impossible to tell what had happened before, but if someone observed closely, they would find that the man was in an extremely good mood today.
