Chapter 122 Hello Cat, Cat Gate
122.
If you have only read about the process of Dazai Osamu's interaction with you through books, but have never actually come into contact with Dazai Osamu, then naturally you will not know what incredible directions your brain circuits can turn to.
Even with the wisdom of a "script team", he couldn't have imagined that someone would ignore the standard answer and come up with an answer based on Pangu's creation of the world... and it might not even be correct.
The problem is that the answer you come up with is no different from filling in "The fourth generation of male fruit flies have long wings and white eyes" under a math geometry problem.
"You don't want to accept it?" Dazai Osamu handed the book forward again, "Your mission in Yokohama is to get the book, right?"
"After completing the mission, it doesn't matter if I don't return to the other Yokohama, right?"
Haha, it’s better not to go back. He thought darkly, a creature like “Dazai Osamu” simply cannot stand seeing his counterpart doing well… He can’t keep the cat anyway, so no one should think about having a cat.
You didn't accept the book directly. Although this thing is indeed a "book", it is not the one required for the main quest - the system elf just popped up and said that an important prop was detected, but it did not meet the mission requirements.
It doesn't matter. Since the items for passing the level are in the hands of another Dazai Osamu, you can just steal them when you go back.
What's more...
You are the cat who rolled around on the ground with Dazai Osamu many times. As soon as this guy bends his mouth, you know how much bad water in his stomach he is going to vomit out.
Although I am not very familiar with Dazai Osamu here, if it is given to a cat for free, there must be a scam cat!
As you think about it, you get angry: Dazai Osamu is really not a good NPC! The cat has been looking for the book, why did you hide it from the cat? !
But then you think again, Dazai Osamu didn’t give it to you because he particularly likes “books”, so that “book” is… a small book that is particularly suitable for Dazai Osamu’s taste?
Is it a bit bad to steal someone's book? Then you can reluctantly give him the carefully selected small books from the system mall... Don't worry, the cat will definitely select some books of various sexual orientations, which will definitely satisfy Dazai Osamu's needs!
If that doesn't work... you can just pay for a few of the high-quality copies that the swordsman bought. These advanced copies from 5022 will surely make Dazai Osamu curious, right?
"The answer is in the cat's heart!" You raised your head proudly, "Cats have their own rhythm."
Both of the two Yokohama Dazai Osamu hold important items, so Dazai Osamu is an important NPC in the decryption copy. This kind of character is either a villain or a savior in the game.
The leader of Hong Kong/Black is obviously a black evil force at first glance - Cat Man does not count, Cat Man is a free player - from this, it can be inferred that the equation "If Dazai Osamu becomes the savior, the cat can go back" is established!
When people are bad, cats are good. Black slime, don’t even think about tricking the cat!
Seeing that you didn't accept the book, Dazai Osamu didn't say anything more. He threw the book back into the drawer. He turned around and said nonchalantly, "So... are you going to stay here for a few more days? Do you need a guide?"
"I can ask Chuuya to show you around."
"Why don't you take me around?" You wagged your tail righteously. "The greatest organization, the leader of 'Kill the Rat', the AAA food stall plumber has landed here. You, Bandage Slime, shouldn't you be honored to lead them in person?"
Dazai Osamu looked at you for a while, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. Cats are not that difficult to persuade... The other "Dazai Osamu" didn't even max out the cat's favorability. What a waste.
He turned his head away, adjusted his expression, and looked at you cautiously, with a little expectation and pity in his eyes: "Can I...?"
"Is it okay if it's not the Dazai Osamu you're familiar with?"
Eh——you are tactically leaning back, why do you feel that this Dazai Osamu is not a black mud slime, but a green tea slime?
Maybe... maybe this is the difference between individual NPCs? You think about it, no wonder this is a beta version, if you listen to this chant every day, it will be hard for you to resist giving the NPC a slap... a slap for a beautiful NPC, and the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms for a male.
Seeing that you looked unhappy, Dazai decided to quit, coughed, and turned serious: "Ahem... go to the next room, Chuuya will be here soon."
"As for why it's not me..." Dazai Osamu sighed, "You also know the number of documents that the leader needs to review. If you are willing to help me..."
"Okay, no problem, no objections to the document. Cat Man didn't understand. Wattasi went out first, 886."
…
"Pah"
The office door was closed.
Dazai Osamu took a quick look and found that a potted plant was missing from the office - it was of no use to him, so he just took it; the wall clock disappeared - it didn't matter whether he knew the passage of time or not; the pen on the desk was missing - he quite liked that pen...
But cats are the masters of room cleaning, cats are good.
He was too lazy to read the other odds and ends, so he sat on the chair, took out the book, and as expected, found a curse message from another "Dazai Osamu".
There is a cat now, so don't talk to the person who lost the cat. Dazai Osamu made a mocking laugh and threw the book back into the drawer.
After a while, he received another call from Sen Ou.
"Dazai-kun..." A sad voice came from Mori Ogai, "No matter how much you hate me as your teacher, I can't stand this kind of teasing if it happens a few more times..."
"Even though I've already turned the cute Alice-chan into Alice..."
It took Dazai Osamu a second to figure out the situation, and he mercilessly laughed at Mori Ogai: "Is it because Mr. Mori himself is like the ○○ criminal that he was arrested?"
The cat helped him to avenge Mr. Mori, good cat.
He imitated your usual tone of voice, saying in a sarcastic tone: "Look for the cause in yourself when something goes wrong, and don't always think that someone is trying to harm you...Mr. Mori is already old, there's nothing worth remembering about him."
"...Dazai-kun, did you meet someone?" Mori Ogai said faintly, "You never said anything so hurtful before."
“Cats like energetic people.”
"cat?"
"Mr. Mori, you don't have a cat, so you won't understand."
Without giving Mori Ogai a chance to speak again, Dazai Osamu hung up the phone.
Outside the public telephone booth, Mori Owl looked at Alice who came to bail him out in confusion: "Dazai...has a cat?"
I can't imagine a heartwarming scene of Dazai Osamu and a cat together.
However...
"Alice~" Mori Ogai looked at Alice expectantly, "If it's a cat, you can also..."
"What's the weird thing Rintaro is thinking about?" Alice stepped back with a look of disgust. She picked up the phone in the public phone booth and said, "Hello, is this the police station? There's a pervert here..."
"Wait, Alice—"

Nakahara Chuuya had mixed feelings.
After Dazai Osamu called him to his office, he suddenly told him that the strange person with superpowers was actually his recognized family member and a real god.
"Well..." Dazai Osamu turned the new pen and gave Nakahara Chuuya an undisguised, malicious smile, "It's just another one of yours."
What self in another world? What god?... Zhongyuan Chuuya quickened his pace. It was totally confusing!
It must be another trick played by that bastard Mackerel on him.
When he really saw you in the room, Nakahara Chuuya, overwhelmed by all kinds of thoughts, couldn't help but speak awkwardly: "Well, you..."
"Even if you are the guest of the Boss of Trouble, don't sneak away the fish tank!"
"Oh Chuuya, long time no see."
"We just met today."
Nakahara Chuuya took a deep breath and silently told himself not to be angry... If this guy was really another family member of his, how could he resist beating him up?
"Hey, you..." Nakahara Chuuya turned his head away, a little awkward, "Do you really know... another me?"
"And..." He glanced at you, his eyes quickly sweeping over your ears and tail, "Are you really... a god?"
“Oh yeah, Mimi boy is cat god.” You put down the fish tank that was half stuffed into your backpack and teleported in front of Nakahara Chuuya. “Of course I know you, meow.”
You said seriously, "Even if Chuuya turns to ashes, the cat man can still recognize you because of your unchanging height... It hurts!"
“Oh, sorry…” Nakahara Chuuya looked at his hands in confusion, “Strange, I just subconsciously…”
"You hit the cat unconsciously, bad!" You complained, "You're injured, Cat Man will never forgive you... unless you give me your most expensive motorcycle."
Hehe, I’ve long discovered that Chuuya Nakahara’s motorcycle can also be ridden as a mount, but unfortunately the other Chuuya Nakahara protects his motorcycle like his eyeballs and refuses to let the cat man touch it.
How stingy! What's wrong with a cat touching the car? What's wrong with driving it into the sky? At most... at most, it will be like Sasukuni's car, which fell into the water and had to be returned to the factory for repair.
The Central Plains here is different. I believe you can definitely use your full-level rhetoric to play with the opponent's car, hehe...
Nakahara Chuuya, who was originally worried about whether the force was too strong, heard this and said speechlessly, "No way."
But based on your performance, he can also be sure that you have a good relationship with your other self.
Before taking you out to visit Yokohama, Nakahara Chuuya asked the question he had always wanted to ask to his "peers": "Am I... still a human?"
“Ah? You want to be a human?” You were shocked. “You don’t even want such cool identities as a gravity user and a wild god… you tasteless orange-head.”
"Hello!"
"You're a human, right? Don't Albatross have a childhood photo of you before you entered the lab?" You scratched your head and began to persuade him, "But Chuuya, there are limits to being a human. Don't just treat it as a human."
"There is nothing good about being a human. You have to eat when you are hungry, drink when you are thirsty, and sleep when you are tired. You are not even allowed to hibernate. If you don't have money, you have to work like a slave for your whole life."
"When it rains, cows know to go into the shed and horses know to go back to the stable. Working cows and horses use various modes of transportation to get to work regardless of weather conditions."
"I have a friend who likes to catch people to die with. Last time, he caught a college student who was taking his final exams to die with him, and then he became a scapegoat. Now, he cries and shouts every day that he was deceived. Kubo wants to go back to being a wandering ghost."
Nakahara Chuuya was stunned by your series of punches: Is this the answer he wants to hear? Is it so bad to be a human being? Is it wrong for him to keep pursuing the identity of "human"?
“That’s not right at all!” Nakahara Chuuya looked at you, speechless, “That’s not what I wanted to ask… Forget it, put down the ashtray in your hand.”
"Tsk, stingy orange head."
"…What did you want to do by jumping up? Did you pull the lamp down? Give up. I added gravity to the lamp."
"What... He actually predicted the cat's movements. A mere orange-headed creature actually evolved..."
"Don't talk like a bogeyman! Also..." Nakahara Chuuya said angrily, "Put the table down!"
