Chapter 32 I Know It

After the banquet that night, the entire chief's office was cleaned for a whole day under the supervision of Guangjin Liulang.

But even so, there was still a faint smell of floral air freshener mixed with the strange smell of soup pot in the office.

The doors and windows of the chief's office were open all day - yes, the huge electric floor-to-ceiling window in Sen'ou's office was also opened - to dissipate the smell.

As for the chief himself, he did not come to the office all day.

Ace was in high spirits the night before and drank too much. He had a hangover and slept until noon the next day when he woke up because he was hungry. He took a nap after lunch and woke up to find that it was almost time for Mori Owl to go out.

Ace called the hospital to inquire about Lan Tang's condition. They only said that he had been rescued, but the patient had not yet woken up.

Originally, Nakahara Chuuya was supposed to be taken by Ozaki Koyo today to familiarize himself with the environment here and assign him a job position, but for some of the same reasons as the leader, he also had no time today.

"Come to think of it, it seems like Zhi's birthday is in two days, right?"

Ace said this while eating snacks in the small clinic he hadn't been back to for a long time.

[Yeah, right?] Mori Ogai responded perfunctorily, and then said: [Ace, to be honest, let's go to the hospital for a check-up. I really feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach.]

It’s not that Sen Ou Wai doesn’t want to check himself, the problem is that it is really inconvenient to check this kind of disease by himself. For example, he can’t do a gastroscopy on himself.

But Ace was completely different from him. He asked curiously, "Huh? Really? I think it's okay."

After that, he continued, "By the way, how should we celebrate Zhi's birthday? How about having a party?"

Mori Ogai: […Didn’t it just finish yesterday?]

He really didn't want to go through another chaotic party like the one last night!

Besides, he doesn't even want to go back to the office now. He doesn't know how the office is cleaned up and whether the smell is gone.

"How can they be the same!" Ace retorted confidently, "Last night was a welcome party for Chuuya, and the day after tomorrow is a birthday party for Ji. They are different!"

Sen Ouwai only felt that his brain was lacking oxygen.

Why are you so obsessed with holding a party!?

If he was not the one controlling his body, he would definitely take a few deep breaths to relax himself!

Mori Ogai tried to stop him: [Actually... Dazai-kun doesn't really like banquets, maybe we can celebrate for him in a different way? ]

"Ah? Don't like it?" Ace recalled what happened to Dazai Osamu last night. He only remembered that he was holding his phone and smiling happily, so he said very cautiously, "No, I think he was very happy last night. It was obvious that he really liked to hold parties!"

Mori Ogai: […You’re the one who likes to hold parties, right?]

Is Dazai Osamu happy because of the party? No! He is happy because he captured your and Chuuya-kun's dark history!

Ace: “…Hey :D”

Mori Ougai sighed deeply, feeling that life had become more difficult after meeting this guy.

He changed the direction and advised: [Ace-kun, you know that Dazai-kun's health is not very good, right? ]

Ace thought about his thin appearance and nodded, "Indeed."

Mori Oo added: [People with poor health should not overeat, and it is best not to drink alcohol. Do you know this? ]

"Huh?" Ace made a surprised and puzzled sound, "Shouldn't you eat more meat if you're not feeling well? The more you eat, the faster you'll get better!"

Mori Owl: ???

The big brain clam outside the forest gull is alive.

【Who told you that the more meat you eat, the better for your health? 】

Who is this idiot? Or does he want to hurt people?

"Ah? But isn't that the case for everyone?"

Mori Ogai refused to discuss the customs and practices of another world with him. He rationally, calmly, and decisively stopped the topic by using his expertise: [I am a doctor.]

As expected, Ace stopped arguing with conviction: "I understand."

Then he thought seriously: Since I can’t hold a birthday party, how can I celebrate his birthday?

"I remember he seemed to like crabs," Ace said seriously.

Mori Ouwai breathed a sigh of relief. This seemed a little more normal. [Then we should give him a box of canned crab meat or snacks? But we can't give too much. Crab meat is cold in nature. Eating too much is not good for the body.]

"I understand." Ace looked like he was about to do something big, and began to arrange a birthday present for Dazai Osamu.

…

After receiving the task, the members tried to hold back again and again, but still couldn't help showing a strange expression.

He lowered his head. No, don't question your boss. Although Mr. Guangjin is quite old, but... well... maybe it was made for his grandson or granddaughter?

Guangjin Liulang arranged the tasks calmly, and then added: "The tasks must be completed before the end of tomorrow. If you have other work at the moment, please stop and give priority to completing... the tasks assigned by the leader."

The expression on the member who took over the task suddenly switched from weird to shocked.

So, this mission was actually issued by the leader! ?

Oh, yes! The leader also has Miss Alice! Maybe this is made for Miss Alice!

He understood and said firmly, "Yes! I promise to complete the task!"

…

At dusk, Mori Owl was exchanged back in the hotel.

This was a relatively cheap hotel that he had never been to. As a leader, he had plenty of money, and he was used to asking Ace to bring money or cards when he went out, so he always had enough money. The main reason he came to the cheap hotel was because of Ace.

This guy's goal is to eat at all the food stores and drink at all the bars in Yokohama!

If he hadn't said that the leader needs to stay at the headquarters most of the time, Ace and his gang would have wanted to expand their reach to the whole world!

What a ghost!

After dinner, Sen Ou went to the medical department of the Port Mafia.

The doctor was about to leave work when he suddenly saw the leader coming over. He was startled. He quickly saluted and asked, "The leader suddenly came over to ask about Lan Tang's condition?"

Although a gag order had been issued on this matter, the doctor was the one who had accompanied the leader to the scene that day, so he naturally knew some of the truth. At this time, he did not use a respectful title to address Lan Tang.

"No, I want to do a checkup." Mori Ogai maintained a proper smile, "How about a gastroscopy first?"

Doctor:……?

…

After completing the examinations one by one, the doctor walked to Sen Ou's bedside with a serious face and a report in his hand. "Chief, your stomach is a little inflamed. Can I prescribe some medicine for you?"

Mori Ou forced a smile: "Then I'll trouble you."

The doctor prescribed the medicine and went through the process while reminding: "In addition to these medicines, the leader must pay attention to his diet during this period. Do not eat spicy food or alcohol or other irritating foods."

Although Chief Mori, who also worked as a doctor, must know this, there will definitely be no problem if he follows the prescribed steps.

"Okay, I understand."

He knew it! There must be something wrong with his stomach!

Just looking at Ace's weird worldview, he is not reliable at all!

…

In the evening, Sen Ou went back to his office. Although the air had been ventilated all day, there was still a faint strange smell of food mixed with air freshener in the office.

There was nothing that could be done about it. There were many things in the chief's office that were not allowed to be touched or looked at. Even the people who came to clean the office were trustworthy subordinates arranged by Guangjin Liulang.

This also led to some places where important documents were stored not being cleaned at all. If the documents and desks, filing cabinets, bookshelves and other places that were smelled by the smell of the soup pot all night were not cleaned, the smell would not be completely dissipated even if it took a day to get rid of it.

I can only say that luckily the inner door was closed during the dinner last night, so we didn’t have to worry about removing the odor.

After all, the lounge inside doesn't even have windows for safety reasons.

As the actual place where Mori Owl lives, the lounge inside is not very big, so it is not so time-consuming and laborious to clean. Because of this, the cleaning tools inside are quite complete.

Sen Ou sniffed and sniffed the places with the strongest smells, sighed heavily, and resigned himself to going inside to get a rag to clean up.

"Ace, if you want to hold a banquet next time, please don't choose my office as the venue."

Yes, he didn't expect Ace to stop thinking about holding banquets casually. His requirements had been lowered to such a low level as not choosing his office as the venue.

Ace didn't insist on holding the banquet in the leader's office to create an atmosphere, so he laughed and said, "Next time, for sure!"

Mori Owl: "..."

I always feel that this sounds so ominous.

…

After the joyful welcome party that night, Ace also called together the people who had attended the party at that time, except Dazai Osamu himself.

Referring to the example of birthday celebrations in this world, Ace asked Moriou to order a giant three-layer crab-shaped cake in advance.

Because Mori Ougai himself did not want to attend the birthday party which was bound to go wrong judging by the team configuration, and Ace would be replaced by Mori Ougai after the evening, the two of them unanimously decided to choose a time period before the evening to celebrate his birthday.

Of course, the reason why Mori Ogai was so active in helping Ace celebrate Dazai Osamu's birthday is not ruled out that the venue of this birthday party was chosen to be Dazai Osamu's office.

Mori Ogai: Now that I have finished my turn, it is naturally your turn, my good student Dazai-kun :)

After Mori Ogai handed over a task that was originally supposed to be completed by the colonel to Dazai Osamu and transferred the person out, several people prepared to go to Dazai Osamu's office to make arrangements.

The three-layer giant crab cake was placed on a cart and covered with a box and cloth. Ace carried a life-sized crab doll and led everyone to Dazai Osamu's office under the hesitant gazes of several people.

…and was blocked at the door.

Guangjin Liulang clenched his fist and put it to his mouth and coughed softly, "Chief, I'll ask someone to come and pry the lock."

Although he didn't respond, Nakahara Chuuya, who had a conscience, said, "Prying the lock? Isn't that bad?"

Ozaki Kouye chuckled: "We are here to celebrate his birthday, not to do anything bad, what's wrong with that?"

The colonel looked around and finally looked at the leader in silence.

After hearing what Ozaki Kouyo said, Ace immediately decided: "Then I'll leave it to you, Master Guangjin!"

It took more than an hour to pry the lock open, and the door was a little damaged.

There is no way. Dazai Osamu himself is an expert in picking locks, so he will naturally take various precautions against picking locks.

Nakahara Chuuya, who was carrying a bag of messy balloons and streamers, said: "So shall we start setting up now?"

Ace gave him a thumbs-up with his signature brilliant smile.
