Mizue Yi, who had no idea what Nakajima Atsushi was thinking, ran straight to Dazai Osamu's office after passing him.

Dazai Osamu had obviously guessed that he was coming. When Shui Jiangyi pushed open the door of the leader's office, he didn't even raise his head. He lowered his head and focused on the hat in his hand and said, "Chu Ye is here, remember to close the door."

The tail of his voice was drawn out, with a sweet and gentle ending, which made Shui Jiangyi pause for a moment. All the emotions in his heart disappeared miraculously at this moment. His eyes became quiet, and even his steps slowed down. He turned around and closed the door, and couldn't help but say, "How did you know I was going to come?"

Dazai Osamu curled up the corners of his lips into a faint smile.

He must be in a good mood today. He rarely showed the huge French window in his office. The blue sky was so clear that it seemed to be falling down. Mixed with the beautiful sunlight, it fell on Dazai's cheek and lingered on the corners of his lips. Dazai said, "Because only Chuuya would be so reckless and careless and directly open my door."

Shui Jiangyi listened to what Dazai said and felt that he was in a trance for a moment. He said, "But I always feel that you are very tolerant of me by not caring about me."

Dazai Osamu raised his head with a smile when he heard this. He said, "Yes, Chuuya is not wrong. I am indeed very tolerant of Chuuya. After all, Chuuya is the only one who can approach me without caring about anything."

"You haven't come to see me these few days. Have you thought about everything? That's why you decided to come and meet me."

Shui Jiangyi sighed: "Why do you seem to know everything?"

After he closed the door and walked towards Dazai Osamu, he found that Dazai Osamu, who was sitting in front of the leader's seat, had pushed all the documents aside and was slowly making a hat. This was a rare opportunity for Shui Jiangyi to see Dazai Osamu's clumsy craftsmanship.

Dazai Osamu is a very smart person. No matter what he learns, he can learn it quickly and absorb it directly with ingenuity. For example, at the beginning, it was obviously not for him to learn how to pick locks, but for him to learn how to avoid the Yokohama police. However, Dazai Osamu learned various reconnaissance methods and learned how to play with various reconnaissance equipment without any guidance.

As his classmate, Nakahara Chuuya was troubled for a long time at that time. Finally, under Dazai Osamu's gaze, he gritted his teeth and held back his hatred to ask Dazai Osamu for advice, and got Dazai Osamu's teachings.

At this time, the clever and agile Dazai Osamu was clumsily sewing a hat in front of him. His fingers, which were usually used to hold a pen, were not very comfortable holding the cloth. Shui Jiangyi said in a hoarse voice: "Why do you have to do this kind of thing yourself?"

Dazai Osamu smiled and said, "I knew Chuuya didn't notice it when he came in, otherwise why would he speak so loudly to me?"

Shui Jiangyi said: "Even if I saw it, I wouldn't speak to you in a particularly gentle way."

Dazai nodded suddenly, "Yes, yes, the person with such a gentle voice now is definitely not Chuuya, it must be an illusion in my ears!"

Shui Jiangyi brought a chair over and sat down next to Dazai Osamu. He said, "Even if you say that, I won't be happy, okay?"

Dazai couldn't help laughing again, and said softly, "Really? But I feel surprisingly that Chuu is also very happy now."

Are you happy?

Not really.

Shui Jiangyi held his chin and looked at Dazai Osamu. He had never watched Dazai Osamu in the if line so seriously. Since he came to this world, his relationship with Dazai Osamu has always been very tense. It’s not that there is any grudge between them that needs to be resolved, but there are too many things to deal with in this world.

It was too tiring for Dazai Osamu to handle the burden alone, so Mizue Yi had been trying to share the burden for Dazai Osamu.

Facts have proved that even if Shui Jiangyi only took on a part of the work, that part was enough to exhaust him. He didn't know how Dazai Osamu managed to complete all the tasks, and completed them exactly. Dazai Osamu's ability was almost so powerful that it was beyond Shui Jiangyi's imagination.

Shui Jiangyi sat quietly opposite Dazai Osamu and said, "I think so."

It should be hard for him to be unhappy, right? His body is the body of Nakahara Chuuya in the if line.

In this world, Nakahara Chuuya has been deceived too much by Dazai Osamu. Every past that Shui Jiangyi has seen through this body is shocking and makes him feel unhappy, but only at this moment, it is difficult for him not to feel happy.

An An sat quietly beside Dazai Osamu, watching Dazai Osamu make a hat for him, which he made from the very first piece of cloth.

Dazai Osamu said: "Chūya unexpectedly becomes a less frank person as he grows up."

"If it was the 15-year-old Chuuya, he would definitely tell me, what the hell are you doing, this hat is torn and ugly, it doesn't even match my imagination at all." Dazai Osamu said with his head down, "Then I can tell Chuuya with a clear conscience that no one else will make a hat for Chuuya except me, so even if Chuuya doesn't like it at all, he must accept my hat."

Shui Jiangyi said: "So, unexpectedly, we have both become adults. I am no longer a 15-year-old me, so I know without you telling me that, apart from you, there will be no one else in this world who will be so devoted to making a hat for me, even if it is an ugly one."

"Tsk." Dazai Osamu paused, and said, "If Chuuya had only said the first sentence and not the last one, I would have been happier. Why do you think the things I made are ugly? It's obvious that every time I've proven that my aesthetics is absolutely better than Chuuya's, right?"

Mizue Ikki felt that Dazai was just a child who always compared himself with others in everything. He pointed out a fact: "It's a pity that I never liked your aesthetics, so you never seemed to like any hat I liked."

"..." Dazai Osamu said, "So, Chuuya's aesthetics are really rubbish."

"If I had such an aesthetic, I would want to commit suicide directly." Dazai Osamu said with disgust.

Shui Jiangyi was not angry either. He still looked down at Dazai Osamu and said, "It's good that you know it. That's why you will commit suicide a hundred times because of your aesthetics."

Dazai Osamu raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction and looked at Shui Jiangyi and said, "I am not going to commit suicide because of this. Everything else is acceptable, but this is unacceptable. Every time I commit suicide, it is because I want to die."

Shui Jiangyi said: "I have never seen a more jerk than you. So, how can there be a person like Dazai Osamu in this world? He uses various methods to commit suicide just for the sake of dying, and causes various troubles to the people around him."

Dazai Osamu approached Mizue Yi little by little.

At this time, Shui Jiangyi was sitting in the place where the light fell. The sunlight made the bright parts of Shui Jiangyi's body particularly bright, especially the beautiful orange semi-long hair, which was so bright that it seemed to be burning.

Dazai Osamu raised his eyes and looked at Mizue Yi, as if he was looking up at him, and said, "So, Chuuya really gives me a headache every time, right?"

"Every time, I would think, if my partner wasn't Dazai Osamu, if I didn't have to stay in the Mafia, I wouldn't have to work so hard like a beast to survive in this world, right?"

Shui Jiangyi couldn't help but laugh. He suddenly remembered what Nakahara Chuuya said to Dazai Osamu of this world before he fell into a long sleep in the story of the if line.

"I used to think you found me troublesome."

Two people in this world seem to be trying to get closer to each other, but both of them are equally clumsy, so all their unconscious approaches to each other eventually turn into a gradual drifting apart.

Whether it is Dazai Osamu gradually drifting away from Nakahara Chuuya, or Nakahara Chuuya gradually drifting away from Dazai Osamu.

No one has ever discovered that, from the very beginning, I just wanted to run towards you desperately.

He suddenly moved closer to Dazai Osamu, his breathing becoming short and tight, the two people's breath blended with each other under the clear sky that seemed to be falling down. Shui Jiangyi felt that at the moment they got close, he almost heard Dazai Osamu's heartbeat.

It was a little slow, as if it would stop at any moment, yet it continued. Finally, as he got closer and closer, it became nervous and began to beat quickly.

He asked Dazai Osamu in his ear, "If you insist on saying it's a headache, how could it be a headache for me?"

There are so many things about you that require me to rack my brains, whether it's that you always like to use yourself as a bet on the gambling board, or that even though things have clearly come to the final end, you still insist on hiding things from me and are unwilling to tell me everything.

But...you are still my partner.

Shui Jiangyi's words floated into Dazai's ears, and he said, "I will be looking forward to the hat you make."

Because I also know very clearly that you will put a lot of effort into it, and you will hand it over to me soon.

And I, although I felt abandoned by you at that time.

I have to deny it.

It was born beautifully from your hands.

As the first gift you gave me.
