Chapter 76 Prisoner and Vampire Cosplay
"I'll leave this place in your care."
As she pulled him into the chief's office, Hayato Kotori smiled and said, "With your powerful ability protecting Tachihara, even if you're still injured, I believe you can protect the chief!"
Surrounded by a bunch of medical staff treating his wounds, he looked confused and pointed at himself: "Me?!"
"It's Miss Kotori's duty to protect the leader, right?!"
Kotori Hayato said capriciously: "I didn't know your ability was so strong before, but now that I know, I'll leave it to you."
Mori Ogai approached with a gentle expression, and suddenly leaned close to Tachihara Michizo, with a gentle and talkative expression: "Oh, didn't you say that you have regarded the Port Mafia as your family? Then it is only natural to protect your family, right?"
"My safety is in the hands of your powerful psychic abilities, Tachihara-kun."
"Ah... yes." Tachihara Michizo agreed: "I will definitely do my best!"
Having been assigned the important task of protecting the leader, Tachihara Michizo looked at Hayana Kotori and asked, "Where is Miss Kotori? Where are you going?"
Hayana Kotori said, "I'm going to sneak across the river."
"Smuggling?!" Tachihara Michizo was surprised.
Kotori Hayato looked out the window and said softly, "If I didn't have to go, I wouldn't give you the mission to protect the leader."
After all, this was her undercover mission.
Just now, when she got off the car, she saw the code carved on the wall around the Port Mafia. It was Dazai Osamu's code. She now needed to rush to the prison where Dazai Osamu was.
There was a place for her.
Since the entire port mafia is under 24-hour surveillance, the only option for leaving Yokohama and sailing to Meursault Prison is to sneak across on a smuggling ship.
It was daytime when they set out from Yokohama. After hiding in the darkness of the warehouse, they took another bus and transferred to another ship. When they saw the outside world again, Hayato Kotori saw a sky full of stars.
The sky is particularly beautiful in places with less industrialization. She is wrapped in a cloak that hides her whole body and her face is also covered by the hood, and she is shocked by the sky at this moment.
After some means, she sneaked into the outskirts of Meursault and hid in the blind spot of the surveillance above the building next to the apron where the helicopter was parked. Looking at the beautiful scenery composed of bright stars in the sky, Hayato Takanashi silently waited for time.
Until the sound of a door being pushed open came from downstairs.
The attack came very suddenly. The hand that handed out the antidote was suddenly frozen in a straight line. The palm that was about to activate the supernatural power to use the cloak to transmit the antidote away was also nailed. The figure that fell from the sky avoided the sharp blade transmitted from the supernatural cloak and snatched the antidote!
At the same time, Fyodor, who was wearing prison clothes, was trapped in the barrier!
Everything happened in a flash. A look of astonishment flashed across his purple-red eyes as he looked at the black-haired woman who jumped to the side with the antidote.
However, the Sanming vampire standing behind him did not attack according to his orders.
This means that Plum... has been liberated.
Although Plum's liberation was part of his plan, and the uncontrolled [Dhampir] was also part of it, the appearance of Hayana Kotori was a variable.
She should be staying by Mori Ogai's side at all times to prevent the leader of the Port Mafia from being transformed by the transformed [Vampire] who sneaked into the building and was transformed!
Why...are you here?
Gogol exclaimed exaggeratedly: "It's you? This is a surprise... a surprise!"
The ability that pinned his hands was lifted, and he danced gracefully to Hayana Kotori. He leaned close to her, his palms covering his lips. He should have whispered something, but instead, he spoke in a normal, playful voice: "But you're too late. Dazai Osamu is already dead. Even if you grab the antidote, it's completely useless~"
"His killer was none other than the Port Mafia's Gravity User."
"Do you want to avenge him?"
If Hayana Kotori collapses, we might see a good show of fratricide. What a lucky day!
Kotori Hayato tilted her head slightly and looked at Gogol with a caring look for a mentally retarded person: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could Chuuya kill Dazai?"
The young man was stunned, and then he heard a voice that shouldn't be here.
"Please don't get too close to Hayana, or I'll get so jealous I'll want to kill you."
It was Dazai Osamu's joking tone, but one could tell he was serious.
Gogol looked back in shock and saw Dazai Osamu, who was wearing a prison uniform and was unharmed, slowly walking out of the door. Following behind him was Nakahara Chuuya, whose scarlet eyes disappeared and returned to clear cobalt blue.
Fyodor looked at Dazai Osamu expressionlessly, and his bandaged and blood-soaked hand touched the barrier that trapped him. It was transparent and cold, and could not be broken by brute force. He could only escape with the help of the space ability user's supernatural power.
But I'm afraid there is no chance.
"Have you guessed it?" Fyodor looked at Dazai Osamu with eyes as deep as the abyss.
"Surprised, right?" Dazai Osamu said sarcastically as he walked up to Fyodor. "You can definitely think of anything I can think of."
"I've seen through your plan to kill me, and conversely, you'll definitely know and use my plan to kill you."
"But what puzzles me is..."
Fyodor curled his lips: "What is it?"
Facing the eyes of the man in the barrier, Dazai's face darkened. "The way I'm going to kill you is a sure death. How can you take advantage of it when you know you're going to die?"
Fyodor's face gradually became expressionless.
The smile on Dazai Osamu's lips widened. "You had a backup plan from the very beginning. The only thing I can think of is your special ability. Although it's an absurd idea, after eliminating everything else, this absurd idea is the most reasonable."
"Fyodor, your special ability is—the person who kills you will become your next."
Gogol's eyes widened slightly.
He looked at the antidote in Hayana Kotori's hand.
"In this game, your end is to be killed by my plan," Dazai said. "You have already realized this and prepared for it."
"How can we get back to Yokohama as quickly as possible and increase the timeline for Chuuya and I to rush back?"
"Your ability is the answer."
"If I follow my plan and let the [Dhampir] kill you, Plum, who is far away in Yokohama, will become you, and you will appear at the Yokohama airport in an instant."
"That way, there will be enough time between us. Even if Chuuya and I rush back as fast as we can, I'm afraid you'll have already gotten what you wanted."
"Then why is Hayato Kotori here?" asked Fyodor.
"According to your plan, Fukuchi Sakurachi will use Plum to control the [Dhampaign] and cause unrest, and the Port Mafia will also be one of their targets. After the [Co-Eating] incident, the Port Mafia has realized the importance of [brains]. As long as the Port Mafia is targeted, in order to ensure that the sole [brain], Mr. Mori, can issue the correct orders, Hayato must guard him at all times. However, Mr. Mori has replaced his protector with someone else."
"Tachihara Michizo," Dazai said to Fyodor slowly and sarcastically, "Your downfall lies in your lack of trust in others. The Port Mafia may do all sorts of evil things, but when it comes to loyalty, even an undercover agent sent by the government will be infected by them and regard this organization as their home."
"Mr. Mori may be a scumbag, but the Port Mafia is not."
Dazai Osamu then turned his gaze towards Gogol, who was standing next to Hayana Kotori. "Is it really okay to just stand still?"
Gogol seemed to have just realized what was happening and asked, "What?"
"Although Fyodor injected the poison himself, you gave it to him." Dazai Osamu spread his hands. "The only antidote is in Hayatona's hands now. When Fyodor dies from the poison, there's a 50% chance that he will possess you."
"This is the worst day ever." Gogol removed the iron plate covering his right eye. His expression was dazed, as if he had suffered a major blow. "I can't be killed."
"...So I'll never be able to break free from the shackles of my best friend..."
"It really is... I don't know how to react, and it seems like my life has lost its direction."
He walked towards Fyodor in a daze, stood in front of the barrier, and met his best friend's dark eyes: "Now the only way to gain freedom... seems to be to be killed by you."
Fyodor raised the corner of his lips and said cruelly: "I refuse."
As he spoke, he pressed on his sleeve, where was hidden a tiny injection that could dissolve all the toxins.
Under Gogol's surprised gaze, he smiled and said, "You are still useful, Gogol."
But the next second, Gogol was kicked by Nakahara Chuuya! He fell to the ground in the rubble of collapsed bricks and stones, and was controlled by gravity and unable to stand up.
"It seems the problem has been solved." She walked to Dazai Osamu with the antidote and placed it on the ground. Then, she opened the box and revealed the potion inside: "Hurry up and remove the poison."
"ah……"
Dazai suddenly looked sad. "I wanted Hayana to detoxify me personally, but now I can't enjoy it because of Fyodor. It's better for that guy to die."
"Don't try to take advantage of me, Dazai!" Nakahara Chuuya was furious: "Detoxify quickly!"
"Yeah, if you don't detox quickly, it might affect your body." Hayato Kotori said viciously, "If your kidneys are affected, you might get kicked."
Nakahara Chuuya's eyes lit up: "Hey, Dazai. Having weak kidneys won't affect your cockroach-like tenacious lifespan, right?"
Dazai quickly took the medicine and injected it, then he exhaled a long breath: "I was so scared. I almost lost my happiness."
"Huh?! You only know how to rob others of their happiness!"
"Yeah, if I could, I'd really like to snatch all of the slug's happiness away."
"Kill you, bastard!!!"
…
In the helicopter, looking at Dazai Osamu who was operating the joystick to fly, Hayana Kotori didn't understand: "Why don't you kill Fyodor?"
Nakahara Chuuya also looked at Dazai Osamu.
High in the sky, gazing at the endless dark sea below, Dazai Osamu replied, "We might encounter formidable enemies in the future. Although Fyodor's abilities are terrifying, they can easily defeat those who give us trouble."
"At least, Chuuya will be able to reduce the time he has to take risks with [Filth] in the future."
Hayana Takanashi suddenly understood that when encountering a difficult enemy, the crisis could be easily resolved by just throwing Fyodor forward.
When we landed in Yokohama, all the unrest in Yokohama had been resolved.
After jumping off the helicopter and standing on the helipad of the Port Mafia, Hayato Takanashi looked at Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya who came down one after another.
Dazai Osamu was the first to notice: "What's wrong? You've been staring?"
Kotori Hayana looked at their outfits: "A prisoner and a vampire."
Suddenly remembering his thoughts before leaving, Nakahara Chuuya saw that there was no one around. He walked up to Hayana Kotori and took off his hat to cover half of her face, leaving only a pair of wandering cobalt blue eyes. He suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Are you ready to offer your blood?"
He stood in an elegant and oppressive manner, his voice was low and hoarse but full of magnetism, his cobalt blue eyes were sharp and dark, like a vampire count ready to feast on human blood, with sexual tension full!
The scene, which was originally full of artistic conception and made people's blood boil and fantasize endlessly, was ruined because a hand suddenly rested on the shoulder.
"Hey, hey~" Dazai Osamu clapped his hand vigorously on Chuuya Nakahara's shoulder. With a sullen expression on his face, he provoked him in a tone that was very provocative: "Chuuya's [Vampire Species] ability has been lifted by No Longer Human. Now he can transform from a vampire into a slimy, short slug."
Nakahara Chuuya: “…”
A man ducked down and squeezed in between Chuuya Nakahara and Hayana Takanashi.
Gently holding the black-haired woman's hand, Dazai Osamu pleaded with a weak and lovable face: "Master Warden, please don't use the whip on me~"
He kicked him on the butt, pushing Dazai away. Nakahara Chuuya clenched his fist angrily: "What are you doing, Dazai! Do you really want a beating?!"
"No need for a whip, just let me kick you to death!!!"
