Chapter 63 Tadpoles Looking for Their Mother (IV)

Ranpo Edogawa: Staring -- Wataru Hirai: Staring

-- Higen Akabane:

Doing Nothing Ranpo

Edogawa: Keep Staring --

Wataru Hirai: Keep Staring --

Higen Akabane: Doing Nothing... Shit!

"I'm really fine, brother, Ranpo brother, you guys really shouldn't think too much."

Higen Akabane put down his fork helplessly and sighed.

Ranpo Edogawa and Wataru Hirai sat on his left and right, while Dazai Osamu was sandwiched between Sakunosuke Oda and Yukichi Fukuzawa.

As for why things had developed to this point...

Higen Akabane held his forehead with a headache, and then saw the more worried looks of the people, and he was speechless.

Just when Edogawa Ranpo was holding his hand and questioning him, Dazai Osamu showed up with Hirai Wataru. Then he and Edogawa Ranpo exchanged some words, and they came to this dessert shop to rest.

But...

Akabane Hitomi sighed again and looked at Hirai Wataru: "Brother, don't you believe me? I'm really fine."

The boy's delicate eyebrows were stained with loss, his face was slightly pale, and the runes on his forehead were shining. Hirai Wataru's heart, which was still a little floating, suddenly confirmed it. He frowned: "What price did it cost you?"

Why is your face so ugly?

Akabane Hitomi: "?"

Ugly?

That's because I'm originally white, brother!

He simply turned his head and looked at Edogawa Ranpo, and said eagerly: "Ranpo-san will definitely believe me, right? Ranpo-san is so smart, how could he be fooled, right?"

Edogawa Ranpo frowned, looking at the boy's eyes turned into gilded gold, and the thoughts in his heart became more certain: "Is it threatening you? Can't say it is?"

Akabane Higen:...

Tired, destroy it.

"But, Brother Fa Ze," the world consciousness hidden in Akabane Higen's mind spoke: "You really don't look convincing now..."

What's wrong with him now?

Akabane Higen frowned, didn't he just return to his original appearance?

"Am I scary?"

"No, anyway...it's just very wrong!"

The world consciousness answered vaguely.

Because he had spent a little energy to locate the world where Hirai Wataru was, Akabane Higen consumed a little energy, resulting in his pale face not returning to normal when he first arrived here. In addition, because of his previous experience in the Jigokumon border, the boy's temperament had changed, so that even Edogawa Ranpo would be suspicious at a glance.

However, he only knew what happened to the boy, but because of the hidden laws and small consciousness, he could not sort out the truth, so he subconsciously chose the "truth" he deduced: because of coming to this world, the boy paid a certain price, and this price was very harmful to the boy's body.

This is why Edogawa Ranpo was so angry when he met him, and what made him even more angry was the boy's indifferent attitude, as if he didn't care about his physical condition at all.

Hirai Wataru thought the same as Edogawa Ranpo, but in fact they were different at the beginning.

He still believed Akabane Hitomi at the beginning. After all, it was only half a body, and he could still be somewhat sure that the boy's body was fine.

But not only did Mr. Ranpo say so, even Dazai meant so...

He had to consider whether the boy had used the power of the law to hide it from him, so...

"Let's go back early, Hitomi."

Hirai Wataru thought for a long time and finally said this.

The moment he said this, the smile on Dazai Osamu's mouth faded a little, and his breath became a little disordered.

Oda Sakunosuke glanced at him as if he had noticed something, and then lowered his eyes to think.

In fact, when Edogawa Ranpo mentioned the parallel world, he had some guesses.

Dazai Osamu must have known about the parallel world in some way. In that world, they should be good friends, and there is also Hirai Wataru. After all, they got along so well in the bar.

But in this world...

is it because their positions are different?

But why did he come to the bar to meet him that time?

If he wanted to make friends, Dazai Osamu would not take the initiative, right?

Just like a cat, they have to take the initiative.

Oda Sakunosuke thought so, but suddenly he noticed a sharp gaze. He looked in the direction of the gaze and met Dazai Osamu's dark iris eyes. He was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled unskillfully.

Then he saw that person quickly shrank back as if he was greatly frightened.

It really is a cat.

Oda Sakunosuke found it funny, but he didn't say anything.

Dazai Osamu was really scared. Why did Oda Sakunosuke suddenly show kindness to him?

Although he also wanted to...

No.

But he couldn't.

The young Minato. The black leader suddenly sat up straight, with a smile on his face. He clasped his hands and supported his chin, looking at the frowning boy opposite him and said: "Little Akabane, you'd better go back soon. It's not good for your health to stay here for a long time."

It's him!

Akabane Higen raised his eyes and looked at Dazai Osamu, and he knew that someone must be up to something! It turned out

that it was not only Xiao Yishi, but also Dazai Osamu.

That's right, if he stayed here for a long time, he would probably find out his secret soon.

That won't do. No matter which Dazai Osamu is, he can't give up on himself so easily.

Akabane was a little confused and hesitated: "But... I want to play here for a few days..."

"Brother has been here for a long time, why do I have to leave as soon as I get here?"

"Because Shibuya won't be excluded." Dazai Osamu smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes: "So Akabane, you'd better leave quickly, this is my advice."

Edogawa Ranpo seemed to have noticed something, and he also looked at Dazai Osamu, his eyes full of thought.

"World, do you know what Dazai Osamu wants to do?"

Akabane Higen knocked on the world consciousness that was watching the show.

"I don't know, it's hidden very well, but I know it has something to do with the book."

The world consciousness thought for a while, and then said: "Brother Fa Ze, can we help them? I have a feeling that this world will be very sad."

Sad?

Akabane Higen's inquiring eyes directly hit the leader's iris-colored eyes, which were dead and dull, without a trace of light.

He suddenly smiled, tilted his head and looked at Hirai Shigeki: "Let's stay for another three days, okay brother?"

He looked at Hirai Shigeki's hesitant eyes: "It's okay, we will go back after three days."

"Okay."

Then three days, it's just right for him to have a good chat with Dazai.

Hirai Shigeki looked at Dazai Osamu, but found that the man's face was a little ugly, but when he looked over, it quickly returned to normal, but he still noticed the change in that instant.

Dazai, what's wrong?

He knew that Dazai Osamu must have concealed the matter from him, but did Himi also know it?

Hirai Shigeki withdrew his gaze thoughtfully.
