Chapter 72 [Two-in-One Hundred Leijia Update]
In the end, it was Nakahara Chuuya who paid for the meal.
And decided never to go out to eat with Verlaine again.
This social death is simply fatal!
Wei Erlain, who always felt that he had performed well, finally began to reflect on whether he had done something wrong when he noticed that his brother did not look happy on the way back.
But when he thought of his younger brother calling him "brother", he felt that his actions tonight were worthy of praise.
Mori Ougai is right, eating a free meal together really works!
But why is my brother angry again?
Verlaine reviewed what had happened throughout the evening and realized that the problem might be with that extra person.
——Yes! It must be because of the Dazai Osamu they met when they were leaving!
When my brother saw him, he looked very angry!
The more Weilun recalled, the more certain he became. Not long after he separated from Nakahara Chuuya, he went to look for Dazai Osamu.
…
When Dazai Osamu wanted to hide his tracks, basically no one could find him, but the problem was that he never thought that such a powerful person like Weierlain would come to trouble him for such a reason, so he didn't even hide!
Dazai was hiding in one of his usual dark alleys, sitting on a shipping container eating canned crab meat, when Verlaine dropped directly in front of him from the sky.
Dazai Osamu couldn't understand why he was involved here. According to his assumption, Weilun should be trying to spend harmonious and friendly brotherly time with his younger brother, or he had a conflict with his younger brother again and went to Mr. Mori for consultation. In any case, he shouldn't come to him.
Dazai Osamu's mind was working hard, but he only showed a shy smile on his face, "Mr. Weilun, shouldn't you be accompanying me at this time? What do you want to do by coming to see me?"
When he talked about this, Wei'lain's face darkened.
"Chuuya is angry."
Dazai Osamu: So?
"You made him angry."
Dazai Osamu: ...
He looked at Weilan with an indescribable expression, "Do you really think so?"
Are you serious? It seems like he's angry because you forced him to eat a free meal, right?
Verlaine looked at him silently.
Dazai Osamu sighed in a pretentious manner and lied to him: "Think carefully again, did Chuuya only start to get angry after I came?"
Wei Lain thought about it and nodded with certainty, "Yes."
He remembered very clearly that Chuuya only became very angry after he came. He definitely didn't become angry before! It's impossible for his brother to be angry with him!
Dazai Osamu: “…”
He took a deep breath and decided to change the direction of the guidance: "Do you remember what Chuuya said when he called you 'brother'?"
In any case, he had to get the blame off himself, otherwise Weilun would definitely give him a beating, and he would not hold back at all!
Why should he take the blame for that little slug!
Wei Erlan was stunned: "...pay?"
"Let him pay," Dazai reminded him. "You were trying to stop him from paying, so he was actually angry with you."
Wei Erlan was startled, then suddenly realized, "So, it's because Chuuya wants to pay."
Dazai Osamu frowned and said, "Yes, Chuuya likes to pay the bill the most. He always pays when he goes out to eat with others~"
Wei Erlan's eyes narrowed and he asked suspiciously, "Really?"
“Of course!” Dazai Osamu affirmed, and at the end he imitated the tone of Nakahara Chuuya at that time and said in a pretentious voice, “Let me pay~!”
Finally, he concluded: "If he didn't really like to settle the bill, why would he say that in that tone?"
Weilun listened and thought about what he said. He felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with it, but...
"Is his salary enough to spend?"
Wei'lain measured it with his own consumption level, and thought about the salary level that Nakahara Chuuya should have for his position in the port mafia. He felt that his own salary might not be able to support his brother's hobby.
But if my brother really likes this kind of activity...
Then he will try harder.
"I see," he said.
…
When he woke up, Nakahara Chuuya found a notification on his phone.
A transfer notification.
One billion yen was transferred from one account to his account.
Zhongyuan Zhong was a little confused, so he asked someone to check the account owner. However, to his surprise, the account was an anonymous account.
So he asked someone to check the IP address of the account, and it happened to be the same city.
Zhongyuan Zhongye:?
Could it be that they knew each other?
He went through all the people he knew in his mind, and it seemed that no one would transfer such a large sum of money to him for no reason.
The most likely person is the leader, but that is usually an extra bonus, and it is usually paid into his salary card. The second is Sister Hongye, who may have thought that he was short of money recently, so she took care of him and gave him some pocket money, but she would not transfer such a large amount at one time.
Apart from this, he could not think of any other possibility.
Although the possibility was low, Nakahara Chuuya still called Ozaki Koyo and asked her if she had transferred money to him today.
When Ozaki Kouyo heard him ask this question after receiving the call, she couldn't help but laugh and tease: [Chuuya, are you short of money recently? ]
"No!" Nakahara Chuuya said irritably, "I suddenly received a transfer notification this morning. Someone transferred 1 billion yen to me, but it was an anonymous card. I checked the IP address and found it was from this city, so I wanted to ask if it was you, big sister, who transferred it."
Ozaki Kouyo's expression suddenly turned ugly, and she said coldly: [Chuuya, have you offended any bad people recently?]
"Ah?" This sudden question left Yuan Chuuya confused.
Seeing his confused look, Ozaki Kouyo warned him: "You know, in our industry, there are always some guys with some perverted hobbies who like to keep some young and good-looking boys and girls and torture them to death. I think you just meet these characteristics, so I think there may be something blind that is eyeing you. 】
At this point, Ozaki Kouyo's murderous aura almost penetrated the radio and reached Nakahara Chuuya. She even had a hint of a murderous smile in her tone, "If you meet that blind thing, don't show mercy. Of course, I will also help you keep an eye out. Let me know which blind thing it is, and I will definitely treat it well, so that it will remember this pain for the rest of its life!"
Nakahara Chuuya: “…Ah, ah…I will. I’ll hang up now, sis.”
【Um.】
Although he was a little scared by Ozaki Koyo, Nakahara Chuuya was not that angry, because his thoughts went astray when Ozaki Koyo was halfway through her analysis.
This analysis process is indeed a bit familiar, as if I had experienced something similar not long ago.
Nakahara Chuuya thought about it and called the person he had exchanged contact information with on that unforgettable night of free dining.
[Hello, Chuuya, what do you want to talk to me about?] A deep and elegant voice came from the other end of the phone. There was no trace of drowsiness as when one just woke up in the morning. Instead, there was a hint of liveliness in the voice.
Nakahara Chuuya asked him directly: "Weirlaine, I received a transfer notification this morning. Was it you who transferred it?"
Yes, after talking to Ozaki Koyo, he had one more suspect, and the target was clearly Verlaine.
This process is too familiar - someone gave him something valuable (expensive gemstone/large amount of money transfer), and someone he knew (fellow member of the Flag Society/Ozaki Momiji) analyzed that someone had taken a fancy to him, and thought that the person who took a fancy to him was not a good person, so he was told to be careful.
Nakahara Chuuya suspected that the "someone" who did similar things might be the same person.
Sure enough, Wei Erlain on the other end of the phone said: [Ah...has the money been credited?]
Zhongyuan Zhongye asked him with a headache: "Why did you suddenly transfer such a large sum of money to me?"
When Weilun heard this, his voice, which was slightly excited, became sad and a little cautious. He asked: [Chuuya, don’t you like it?]
Nakahara Chuuya just wanted to sigh: "This is not a question of like or not, right?"
[Well... don't worry, this isn't a lot of money for me, just use it as pocket money.]
Nakahara Chuuya: “…”
Do I look like I'm short of money?
Nakahara Chuuya sighed and said, "I don't need this money. I'll transfer it back to you later. You can spend it on your own."
After that he hung up the phone.
Wei Erlan paused, looked at the cell phone in his hand which was still beeping with a busy tone, and slowly frowned.
Why does my brother dislike money? Since he likes to pay bills, he should like the money he uses to pay bills, right?
Weilun, who was fooled, didn't think there was anything strange about his hobby of settling bills. He even thought there were many people in the world with a hobby stranger than this. His brother just liked settling bills, which was not strange at all. He was normal!
But how can he support this hobby without money? And his brother refuses to accept his money...
…
"So, if he doesn't want to take your money, what's the point of you coming to me? Do you want me to force you to take your money?"
Sen Ou waved away the guards who were surrounding the door, looked at Weilan who had once again broken into his office, and nodded.
A day's plan begins in the morning. Being blocked in the office by this man early in the morning would be hard for even Sen Ou to get upset, not to mention that he was not a generous person to begin with.
"No." Weilun frowned immediately after hearing this, "You can't force him."
So you're going to force me?
And weren't you able to force him before? Why don't you force him on such a small matter?
Sen Ou felt a heart attack, but he had to deal with it, so he could only perfunctorily say: "Why don't you try to transfer the money to him directly? He will definitely not refuse the transfer."
“But he sent it straight back to me,” Verlaine said gloomily.
Mori Owl: "..."
So what you said before about him not accepting the money you gave him means that you transferred the money directly to him and he transferred it back to you, right?
Sen Ouwai wanted to sigh a little. If it was him, if someone transferred money to him, he would directly accept it regardless of whether the other party transferred it to the wrong person or not. He would not acknowledge it even if others came to him to ask for it!
Don’t refuse the free money!
Alas, sometimes Chuuya is just too kind. Verlaine tortured him so much, but he didn't even want Verlaine's money! If it were me, I would be lucky not to take the opportunity to cheat him out of a lot of money!
Unfortunately, he is not like him either.
Fortunately, I am not like him.
Otherwise, with such great power and a personality like his, it is hard to say whether Mori Owl can still accommodate him.
He thought about it and found an excuse: "Didn't you cause him to be hospitalized before? Just say it's compensation for his medical expenses. Or didn't you destroy an entire street when you fought? Just say it's compensation for him."
"...I'll try." Weierlaan thoughtfully transferred the money to Nakahara Chuuya again, and then sent a message to inform him that it was medical expenses.
As for the compensation for the destroyed buildings, he is a killer and Zhong is also a member of the mafia. When gangsters fight, aren't the consequences of any bumps and bruises borne by the owners themselves?
Before the transfer was even completed, a new message came from Nakahara Chuuya: "The medical expenses don't need to be that high. I have already transferred the rest back to you."
Wei Erlain: “…”
He stared at his phone for a long time, then glanced at Mori Ogai, and finally groaned in dissatisfaction, then transferred another 1 billion yen to Nakahara Chuuya and sent him a message: "The rest is the compensation for the street we destroyed back then."
...In the end, I still used the excuse given by Mori Ouwai.
Nakahara Chuuya: "...Okay then, I'll go take a look then."
It was not until he saw this message that Weierlaan finally put away his phone with satisfaction, and looked at Mori Ogai condescendingly: "I want a list of Chuuya's hobbies."
Mori Ogai: ...
You just need to ask one or two questions, right? Why do you need a list? You should know that I am just his leader, not his admirer, right? What decent leader would ask about his subordinates' personal hobbies? Do you think I am a pervert?
Sen Ouwai really wanted to ignore him and even wanted to stand up, pick up the chair he was sitting on and throw it at his head, but it was obvious that doing so would be a real brain-destroying move.
He doesn't want to find it yet.
So he took a deep breath and said with a heavy heart, "Okay, but I'll need some time. You go back first, and I'll have someone take it to you later."
…
Nakahara Chuuya felt that Weilan was acting strange recently, and took him out to dinner every few days.
In the first few times, he always threatened to eat a free meal. When Nakahara Chuuya asked him with a tired face why he wanted to eat a free meal since they were not short of money, Weierlaan said seriously: "It was Mori Ogai who said that eating a free meal together can enhance the brotherhood."
...Chief?? Why would he say that??
Nakahara Chuuya widened his eyes in disbelief, but then he remembered that the leader in another state seemed to say something like that.
That's okay.
He explained to Verlaine tiredly that he didn't like to eat and free meals, and asked him not to do it again in the future.
Weilun accepted it smoothly, but still liked to take him out to dinner or go somewhere else. The problem was that every time he paid the bill, he would look at him with an expectant look.
Nakahara Chuuya is more straightforward, so I don't quite understand what he is expecting, but when I think of what he said last time about enhancing the brotherhood, I think he might be trying to enhance the relationship in this way. But this doesn't explain why he always looks at him with expectant eyes at the last moment, right?
He thought about it for a moment, thinking of the huge sum of money Verlaine had transferred, and couldn't help wondering: Could it be that Verlaine had no money to eat, so he asked me to support him in this way? Did the money he transferred include his food expenses?
If you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem strange. From the outside, Weilun's life is at least very comfortable materially. But now that all the money has been given to him, he may not be able to adapt to the sudden decline in the quality of life.
Zhong Yuanzhong originally thought so, until he proposed...
"Huh? An amusement park!?" Nakahara Chuuya looked at Weilan in disbelief, suspecting that Weilan had lost his mind during the time he was on the mission.
Yes, after Chuuya Nakahara's injury was almost healed, he started working again. After all, he still has a brother to support, so he can't do without making money.
But Verlaine, he has been an adult for many years, right? Is he such a childish person? Is this really normal!?
But Verlaine thought there was no problem at all. Mori Ogai had told him before that Chuuya was old enough to go to an amusement park, and he had never been to such a place before. Verlaine thought it was time to give him a complete childhood.
"Yes." Weilun nodded, but when he saw that Nakahara Chuuya seemed to be a little resistant, he paused and found an excuse for him, "I have never been to an amusement park with my family."
Although my younger brother is still young, he seems to have a strong sense of self-esteem. Maybe he thinks going to the amusement park will make him look childish, so he doesn’t want to go, but he definitely wants to go deep down!
He has checked and there is no child who doesn't like playgrounds!
Zhongyuan Zhong was not a worm in Weilan's stomach, and he didn't know him that well. He didn't know what strange things the other party had made up without his permission. Hearing Weilan say this, he was relieved.
If the point is that you want to go with your family rather than go to an amusement park, then that's understandable.
Nakahara Chuuya sighed, but still fulfilled his little wish.
It's just a small thing like accompanying him to the amusement park. He can still find time for it.
But after entering the amusement park, Chuuya Nakahara realized something was wrong because Weilun kept asking, "Chuuya, which one do you want to play?"
Nakahara Chuuya scanned the area, pointed at one and said, "That one."
Then Wei Erlan looked over and took a glance, frowning and saying, "Roller coaster? That's not as exciting as flying in the sky. How about I take you for a ride?"
Nakahara Chuuya was full of questions.
If you can fly, then why can't I? Why do I need you to take me? And if that's the case, what's the point of us coming to the amusement park?
Nakahara Chuuya decisively changed one, "Let's use that one."
Wei Erlan looked at the slowly rotating Ferris wheel and frowned again: "I can take you directly to the top."
Can you do it myself?
Nakahara Chuuya was exhausted, so he scanned the area carefully this time, trying to find an item that could not be replaced by his gravity ability.
You definitely can't go to a haunted house, because if you're not careful, Weilun can turn it into a crime scene. Anything exciting or high-altitude, like bungee jumping on a pirate ship, can all be blocked by the gravity power.
He looked around and finally pointed to the spinning teacup in the distance and said, "That's it."
Weilun took a look and found that this seemed to be unable to be replaced by gravity power, so he nodded.
... and a little while later, the child in the teacup next to his and Verlaine's teacup stared in shock and asked his father: "Dad! Why can the brother and uncle's teacups fly!?"
The child's father's face turned green: "Ah... maybe... maybe some invisible elves lifted up their teacups."
It's obvious that he is a person with special abilities! Ah Ba Ah Ba...
The child started to make a noise: "I want the elf to lift up our teacups, too!"
The child's father hurriedly comforted him: "The elves will have no more energy after lifting them. Can we wait until next time?"
"I don't want it! I want the elf to lift me up now! Dad, please let the elf lift us up!"
The child’s father: “…”
Mask of Pain.JPG
Nakahara Chuuya's face turned red and green, ashamed and ugly. He looked at Weierlaan who was sitting opposite him with a heavy face and said firmly: "Weierlaan, put down the teacup! Revoke your supernatural power!"
Weilun slowly lowered the cup and asked him nonchalantly, "Chuuya, isn't this fun?"
Nakahara Chuuya didn't dare to say "it's fun" to him with a sullen face, for he was afraid that the other party would take it seriously, so he quickly and firmly growled: "It's not fun! Put us down now!"
It's too embarrassing to keep doing this! Not only is it embarrassing, it's also very conspicuous!
After playing around in the amusement park, Nakahara Chuuya was already very tired. He originally thought that he was just accompanying someone to play around in the amusement park, but he never expected that playing with Wei Erlain was different from the normal process!
When they left the amusement park, Verlaine asked him, "Chuuya, did you have fun?"
Nakahara Chuuya: “…”
I wanted to say I was unhappy, but when I saw Weilun's expectant expression, I softened my heart and forced a smile, "I'm happy."
It seems that this person didn't have a good life in the past. It's rare that he wants to experience the love of normal people. He should not discourage him.
When Wei Erlan heard him say that he was happy, his eyes lit up immediately and he said enthusiastically: "Then I will bring you here to play next time!"
“Don’t!” Nakahara Chuuya reacted strongly and refused. Seeing the other party’s confused expression, he coughed and covered up, “It’s enough to experience the amusement park activities once. After all, I’m not a child anymore. There’s no need to come all the time.”
"...Okay then." Weilun responded with some disappointment.
Nakahara Chuuya was a little soft-hearted again, but he immediately came to his senses. There must not be a next time for the amusement park activities! Otherwise, it would be like the free meals before, and it would never end!
Chuuya Nakahara's way back to the dormitory was partly on the same route as Verlaine's. He glanced at Verlaine several times on the way, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Verlaine soon noticed it, turned his head and asked gently, "Chuuya, what's the matter?"
Wei Erlan took the initiative to ask, and Zhongyuan Zhongye also said: "Well, I want to ask, are you short of money recently?"
Wei Erlan showed a confused look, but still answered honestly: "No, I still have a lot of assets. If you don't have enough, I can transfer some more to you."
“No, no, no! No thanks!” Nakahara Chuuya quickly refused, then asked, “But I see that you seem to be in a tight financial situation recently, and you’ve been asking me to pay for you… Ah, I’m not blaming you, I just think it’s a little weird.”
Nakahara Chuuya is not as smart as Dazai Osamu, but he is not stupid and has more common sense than Ace. Let's not talk about the meal, but Weilun took the initiative to bring him to the amusement park, and looked at him expectantly when all the expenses were paid. This is wrong no matter how you think about it.
Normal people would not let their younger generations pay the bill when they take them out to play, not to mention that Weilun had said that it was not that he could not afford the bill.
However, after hearing what he said, Weilun looked at him with a puzzled look on his face: "Don't you like to settle the bill? Aren't you happy that I gave you the chance to settle the bill?"
Let Chuuya settle the bill first, and then he transfers money to Chuuya for other reasons. It’s a perfect fund transfer chain!
When Nakahara Chuuya heard this, he was speechless: "Who told you that I like to settle accounts? It's impossible for anyone to have such a hobby, right?"
Most people don’t have the money to support this hobby!
"That's impossible," Verlaine said grumblingly. "He told me that you loved to settle accounts..."
The nerves in Nakahara Chuuya's brain immediately tensed up, and a certain person's name almost immediately emerged in his mind. He asked gloomily: "Did that guy Dazai Osamu tell you?"
"Well, that seems to be his name."
Nakahara Chuuya laughed grimly, "Okay, I understand."
Got it. I'll go back and beat that bastard Bandage Guy until he's left with only one breath!
…
Dazai Osamu, who had just slipped out of Morio's office, was looking for a river to lie down, when he ran into Nakahara Chuuya who had returned angrily at the main entrance on the first floor.
Seeing the culprit appear in front of him, Nakahara Chuuya immediately sneered: "What a coincidence, Dazai."
Dazai Osamu groaned, "Ah~ah, how unfortunate it is that I actually ran into a dark little dwarf."
"I'm still growing! I will definitely grow taller in the future!" Nakahara Chuuya suddenly became even angrier, and rolled up his sleeves to hit him, "It's really unfortunate for you to meet me today, get ready, I will treat you well soon!"
…
Mori Ogai, who received the call from the first floor, showed a schadenfreude smile.
During this time, that bastard Dazai Osamu always ran into him at various locations when he was online, and then laughed at his teeth. He even perfectly avoided the time when Ace was online and only targeted himself! This is too much!
Moreover, Ace was not very quiet during this period and kept urging him: [Mr. Ouwai, have you made arrangements? When can I fight Wei Erlan? ]
"It's almost there, just wait a little longer."
Let's wait for his people to negotiate with Lan Tang first.
Mori Ouwai knew very well that it was impossible to stop Ace. As long as he was still in his body and maintained this exchange rhythm with him, a fight would break out sooner or later.
Let him fight, there is no way to avoid it, but he has to take some protective measures in advance. For example, if Ace is defeated, he has to find someone who can snatch people from Weilun's hands to rescue him.
Oh, I’m so tired. It’s a different kind of tiredness from taking care of Dazai Osamu.
…
On the other hand, Weilun, who was under great scrutiny from Senou, kept the lights on in his room until very late.
In fact, this was not the first day he had been like this, but had been like this for almost half a month. Lan Tang, who lived in the house next to him, had already discovered it a long time ago, but had never come to ask him.
The current relationship between him and Wei'laine is indeed awkward. Lan Tang wants to repair it, but Wei'laine is not so cooperative.
However, Weilun and Zhong also went to the amusement park this afternoon, and Lan Tang thought this was a topic that they could talk about.
He thought about it, baked some bread, held it in his arms, took it to the next door and knocked on the door.
After a while, Wei Erlan came over to open the door. Seeing Lan Tang standing at the door, he frowned, but did not close the door directly in resistance. Instead, he asked first, "What's the matter?"
Lan Tang changed his words and said, "I saw you were still awake so late, so I came to bring you something to eat."
When they were still partners, Lantang claimed to be Verlaine's guide, and his words were often impolite. In a sentence that everyone could understand immediately, he communicated with Verlaine in a way of instruction. The result was also obvious. The child was very rebellious and would not tell his parents anything.
But now their relationship is completely different from the past. After removing this layer of identity relationship, Lan Tang will communicate with him more in an equal manner. Although he can't help but use a tone of instruction occasionally, it is much worse than before.
Verlaine looked at him for a moment before he opened the door to let him in.
Lan Tang walked inside and said, "I heard that you went to the amusement park with Zhong Ye this afternoon?"
"Um."
"Did you have fun?"
“Chūya and I are both very happy.” Verlaine answered seriously.
"… Really? That's good."
Verlaine dropped him off in the living room and prepared to go into the room, showing no intention of entertaining him.
Lan Tang looked at his lighted room, put the paper bag of bread in his arms on the table in the living room, walked to the door of the room, and whispered, "You seem to always sleep very late recently... Do you mind if I come in?"
People like the killer are actually more accustomed to darkness. Keeping the lights on so late at night usually means he is sorting out the target's information, but keeping the lights on for such a long time and so late is an abnormal situation.
Verlaine glanced at him. "As you please."
So Lan Tang walked in, and was shocked by the situation in the room -
The room was filled with all kinds of textbooks. There was a printed table on the wall next to the desk. The corresponding columns next to the serial numbers in the first column of the table were MIT, Cambridge University, Oxford University, Harvard University...
Lan Tang was stunned for a moment. He asked hesitantly, "Paul, are you going to take the college entrance examination?"
"Yeah." Weilun replied expressionlessly, "I need a diploma that is more valuable than the one from the University of Tokyo." Only in this way can he defeat Mori Owl and take back his brother's education rights!
Lan Tang: "...If you just want a diploma, you can get one at the black market."
"No!" Weilun was very adamant about this point. "If it's fake, then I'll lose! I want a real diploma!"
I don’t know why Paul suddenly cares so much about his studies, but…
Lan Tang: "...then you do your best?"
