Chapter 66 Hey, Hayana, come and take me away
Not knowing what Zenin Naoya was instilling in Dazai Osamu in the hospital, Hayana Kotori nailed the man she had locked up with a string.
Blood pooled on the ground along the lines that passed through his hands and feet, outlining the appearance of an attack that could not be seen by anyone.
As the man was sweating profusely and begging for mercy, Hayana Kotori searched his body thoroughly.
"I, I, I... I can break the "co-devouring"!" The pain was so unbearable that the man just wanted to end this painful torture as soon as possible.
For this, he confessed everything and begged for mercy, even saying that he could remove his supernatural powers.
Unfortunately, the woman who was searching him did not react at all. She remained calm and threw the gun, lighter and a series of dangerous items on him into the corner.
She said: "It will not be lifted for the time being."
The man was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Isn't this the reason you arrested me?!"
Is she an enemy of the Port Mafia and the Armed Detective Agency?
"Yes." Hayana Takanashi leaned against the wall, playing with the lighter in her hand. After canceling her supernatural power, she threw a simple hemostatic medicine and gauze to the man, and then trapped him in the barrier again.
She lowered her eyes and waited quietly.
The "mutual devouring" that can make the Armed Detective Agency and their port mafia fight desperately must be the most critical part of the plan. Now that she has caught this psychic, she can use this to expose the mastermind behind the scenes and kill him!
She sent the chief a message that a man had been caught and would be brought out of the iron mine before a certain time, as well as the location of the iron mine, and began to fish patiently.
Waiting.
The waiting time is very long.
Every once in a while she would check the time on her phone.
However, it was unsuccessful.
The mastermind behind the scenes did not show up to save people.
Zenin Naoya sent a message saying that Dazai Osamu was discharged from the hospital despite the doctor's advice.
A loud crashing sound was heard. She leaned against the wall, resting with her eyes closed. She opened her eyes slightly and met the man's terrified gaze. She said, "Are you interested in coming with me to meet my leader?"
Completely disregarding the man's wishes, Kotori Hayato dragged him out of the iron mine by the back of his collar.
When she saw the clear sky again, she couldn't help but squint her eyes, and then she saw a crowd of people standing in front of her.
Throwing the man to the crowd who were sharpening their knives, she walked forward and looked around but didn't see anyone.
Curiously, he asked Ozaki Kouye, "Sister Kouye, where is Chuuya? And Dazai, why aren't they here?"
"Chuuya is here." Ozaki Koyo handed a detective novel to Kotori Hayato.
Hayana Kotori took it and examined it in confusion. "Are you saying Chuuya is in this novel? Is it some kind of supernatural power?"
"That's right." Facing the looks of embarrassment or indifference from the Armed Detective Agency, Ozaki Kouyo explained, "It's [Combination] Edgar Allan Poe's special ability. It traps people in a detective novel. Only by solving all the mysteries within can they escape."
"Can I open it and take a look?" She was a little curious.
Tanizaki Junichiro hurriedly stopped him: "Mr. Ranpo is in there too! He's solving a case right now. By the way, once this novel is opened, it will suck people in."
"And Mr. Dazai, he said he was going to catch the demon."
"What should we do?" Ozaki Kouyo leaned over, cupping her hands to her lips, and jokingly asked, "Does Chuuya know the true identity of the detective from the Detective Agency?"
Hayana Takanashi: "..."
The last time Chuuya visited home, he only saw his mother and grandfather.
Oh no!
Would Chuuji not get so angry and beat up Ranpo for trapping him in a detective novel?!
Just as she was about to open her detective novel and go in to stop them, Mori Ogai, who had recovered from his "co-devouring" spell, came over and said in a profound voice, "Haasana, you're quite prescient."
"It's the leader's plan." Hayana Kotori looked at the bandage on Fukuzawa Yukichi's neck and felt that the move designed by the leader according to the plan was indeed cruel.
The Port Mafia almost killed the boss of the Armed Detective Agency.
"It's not what you think." Mori Ogai sighed: "He and I are not mortal enemies."
It's just a disagreement and a parting of ways.
"The matter has been resolved. Take the man and let's go."
Upon hearing the leader's order, all members of the port mafia followed.
Walking beside the leader, Hayana Kotori asked, "What should we do next?"
"We've already won." A smile spread across the corners of his lips, and Mori Ogai said elegantly: "Let's have a party to celebrate."
On the way back, Hayana Takanashi was driving, Kohaku Ozaki was sitting in the passenger seat, and Ogai Mori and Alice were in the back seat.
Paying attention to the road conditions and controlling the speed of the car, she told A everything that happened on the cruise ship without hiding anything.
Listening to her story, Ozaki Kouye's eyes, which had been closed, opened, a sharp light flashing in them: "He actually secretly collected our special abilities. Humph, I told you long ago that man is not one of us."
Her tone was murderous.
"So Fyodor is already aware of all of our abilities." Mori Ogai was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Where's A?"
Hayana Kotori said, "When I came back, the situation was too chaotic and complicated, and he escaped."
Mori Ogai ordered: "Send someone to investigate his whereabouts."
"Are you going to issue a hunt down order?" Ozaki Koyo was very interested in this.
The hands holding the steering wheel tightened, and Kotori Hayashi lowered her eyes.
If that guy A is killed by someone else, it would be better for her to kill him quickly.
"No." Mori Ogai denied, determined to get it. "His ability is rare. The ability to generate money will always be a powerful aid to our Port Mafia."
"Bring him back and lock him up in the underground bunker."
Ozaki Kouyo said, "Then let our subordinates who are good at tracking go after him."
…
After returning the cursed spirit to Zenin Naoya, Hayana Kotori thanked him again.
When returning the glasses to him, the young master said generously: "This thing is of no use to me, I'll give it to you to play with."
He waved his hand and left, reminding her, "Don't forget our agreement. Don't contact me until I get married!"
The celebration party would be held after all the members had recovered from their injuries. The next afternoon, while drinking tea, the detective novel on the table moved strangely, and then Edogawa Ranpo appeared.
Seeing the unfamiliar interior, Edogawa Ranpo was confused for a moment, but then his eyes cleared up: "Is this... the Port Mafia?"
"Yes, you have been surrounded by enemy troops." Hayana Takanashi put down the teacup.
Meeting her brother's gaze, she asked with concern, "Did you get beaten?"
"Not at all." Sitting on a chair on the other side, Edogawa Ranpo picked up the cake on the table and started eating, saying vaguely: "I don't know why, even when Hat-kun was angry, he didn't touch me."
"Why is that? It's so strange..."
Hayana Takanashi: "..."
Kotori Hayana exposed him: "Hey, you told me about your relationship with me to avoid getting beaten, right?"
"Besides, Chuuya isn't the type to take his anger out on others and beat them up."
"Ah, really?" Edogawa Ranpo swallowed the cake in his mouth and recalled: "When he jumped up and beat me at the door of the Port Mafia, he didn't behave like this."
"Maybe his target is the ground beneath your feet?"
"It's me."
"It's the ground."
"It's definitely me!"
Edogawa Ranpo puffed up his cheeks in dissatisfaction: "Why does Xiaona always side with him? As a brother, I am very angry."
Being condemned, Hayana Kotori thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe he's just too honest. He can only be bullied in front of you."
"Don't think I don't know. You've secretly teased Suehiro Tetsuji many times, right?"
Edogawa Ranpo: “…”
Edogawa Ranpo: I'm so angry.jpg.
After the recuperation is completed, there will be a celebration banquet.
Standing in a corner of the spacious venue, beside her were tables filled with delicious food, cakes and snacks, and in her ears were the beautiful and soothing dance music played by a live band. Hayana Takanashi, holding expensive champagne in her hand, wore a little black dress, tied her hair back with an exquisite gem hairpin, and looked at the waiters in tuxedos shuttling back and forth, and always felt that something was missing.
After finishing a dance with the chief, Alice heard the chief's voice coaxing her to dance with him again.
She suddenly thought of the detective novel she had placed on the table.
Zhongye still didn't come out.
At the gathering place of the black lizards, Yin said worriedly, "Ms. Kotori, you seem quite listless."
"Is it because only the chief dares to ask her to dance?" Tachihara Michizo, who usually dressed unruly, felt very uncomfortable in his suit and loosened his collar. "Normally, there's Mr. Nakahara, but now he's locked up in a book."
After adjusting his tie, Guangjin Liulang, who was shouldering a heavy responsibility, said gentlemanly, "Then I will save my superior's face."
After going there, he was harshly rejected by the other party. Guangjin Liulang leaned on the wall with his hands, his whole body shrouded in shadow.
Silver: "Rejected."
Tatehara Michizou: "Idiot."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke: "Only Mr. Dazai is worthy of dancing with Ms. Kotori."
Having just rejected Hirotsu Liulang's invitation to dance, Takanashi Hayana opened her phone and saw the message on it. Her eyes widened in surprise and she left the Port Mafia building as quickly as possible.
…
On the other hand, the Armed Detective Agency held a celebration party on the cruise ship on the same day.
Standing on the edge of the deck, across the sea were the five towering buildings of the Port Mafia. Dazai Osamu, dressed differently from his usual self, clinked glasses with Nakajima Atsushi, also wearing a black suit.
As the champagne sipped, Nakajima Atsushi suddenly asked, "Mr. Dazai used to be a member of the Port Mafia. Did he and Ms. Kotori have a crush on each other for a long time?"
"No," Dazai Osamu looked at the tall building opposite: "At the beginning, I was unrequited in love."
"Huh?!" Nakajima Atsushi was surprised.
Facing the innocently shocked look of the boy beside him, Dazai Osamu suddenly chuckled: "What's wrong? Can't someone like me have a one-sided love?"
Realizing that he was overreacting, Nakajima Atsushi explained, "No! I just feel that if someone as smart as Mr. Dazai wants to pursue a girl, he will definitely be able to get her quickly, right?"
The word "unrequited love" is surprisingly inappropriate when used to describe Mr. Dazai.
"She's not an ordinary girl, Atsushi-kun."
Dazai's voice softened, as if he had returned to memories of the past, and the color in his eyes softened: "She is a light in my life."
"Light?" Nakajima Atsushi understood.
He should be able to understand.
It is not just an emotion called "love", it must also be mixed with the complex reliance of many other emotions, combined together to become the dazzling existence of "light".
If that's the case, Mr. Dazai's unrequited love is completely understandable.
Stroking the mobile phone which contained the text message and address he had already sent to Hayana Kotori, Dazai Osamu curled up the corners of his mouth in anticipation.
Hey, Hayana, come and take me away.
