Chapter 100: The Saint Who Imprisoned Himself in the World - Eliot Ortizim Mithril Gropius
"I see," the gentle lady smiled after listening to Dazai's narration, which tried not to be filled with personal emotions and skipped some terrible scenes. How can I describe the expression on her face? Longing and melancholy mixed together, turning into a glimmer in her eyes. She raised her head, looked up at the sky, and said, "We knew it a long time ago."
"That was a child brought by God. Leaving at that time was just returning to God." The lady saw the bird flap its wings and fly away. She lowered her head and made a cross on her chest: "He has tried so hard and is still trying to send us news. He has always been a smart and kind child. If possible, please tell him that taking good care of himself is the best answer for us."
Dazai Osamu responded seriously: "I will, ma'am."
The two adults were talking here, but they both ignored the other child beside them, until a loud cry of "wa" was heard, and then they turned their attention there. Andre rubbed his eyes hard with his hands, tears rolling down his cheeks, and said, "Why, why does my brother have to go through this..."
He didn't understand what a transcendent person was yet. He only knew that loneliness and solitude were very unbearable things.
The loud cries of the children echoed in the alley and did not subside for a long time.
After some more consolation, Dazai Osamu persuaded the two to leave. Not long after, the people from the Special Powers Department arrived. With Ranpo there, he knew where Dazai Osamu had gone not long after he disappeared. It was Dazai Osamu who took the initiative to contact the Special Powers Division.
Gogol was soon taken away and sent to a special prison, which restricted him even more than what Dazai Osamu saw in the scarlet cave. This was probably the most difficult way of execution for him to accept.
Sitting in the room of the Special Powers Department, opposite Dazai Osamu was Sakaguchi Ango, with Taneda Santouki listening on the side. "Are you saying you've seen a new transcendent?" asked the guy with glasses.
"Yes." Dazai Osamu did not hide it, nor could he hide it. One of the four people was a police officer, and that gentleman had not asked them to keep silent.
What he described was so frightening that Ango Sakaguchi almost thought he was listening to some horror fairy tale. Dazai Osamu's attitude was also surprising. He seemed to admire the transcendent one very much, and even when he talked about the danger he was in there, he did it in a happy tone.
It was not until the end that Ango Sakaguchi understood his feelings. "...Actually, up to now, it's hard to say who is bound by whom, him or his special ability. We can only say that we should be grateful to him for not going crazy in that situation and bringing everything to others. He is not absolutely kind, nor is he evil, but judging by his actions, perhaps he is the only one who is most suitable for this special ability."
Sakaguchi Ango took a deep breath, pushed up his glasses, and his eyes were filled with thoughts. He sighed and said, "I can't imagine that someone could make such a decision at that time."
"People in this world are different. Some people burn, kill and rob after awakening the lowest level of supernatural powers, while others realize the danger of powerful supernatural powers and choose to imprison them in their own prisons," said Taneda Santouhuo, who was obviously more experienced. His tone was also complicated: "You can't say he doesn't exist."
Dazai Osamu smiled and said, "He is undoubtedly a genius. He was only twelve years old when he awakened his special ability, but at that time, he already had his own mature outlook on life and his own self-consistent logic. He could avoid falling into an endless vortex of doubt and resentment when facing things, and would not be overly sad. His wisdom is not only reflected in thinking, but also in the 'heart'. This is extremely rare. So I say that no one is more suitable for this dangerous ability than him."
Dazai Osamu's words revealed the aura of that transcendent person. Sakaguchi Ango and Taneda Santouki were both people with strong thinking abilities, and they also agreed with his words. Because if you just put your twelve-year-old self into that situation, you will know how amazing it is to achieve this.
Sakaguchi Ango tapped the table with his pen. After analyzing this transcendent who had never appeared in the records of any country, even though he knew he was special and terrifying, he still had to ask in accordance with his duties as a government official...
"Are you saying that is it possible for us to capture him?" On the other side, Furuya Rei was also being questioned in a closed room of the Public Security Bureau. After saying some similar yet different words to Dazai Osamu, he listened to the questions from the person in front of him with a strange expression.
"Yes," the person in charge of the inquiry was a man in a suit and tie. He looked like he had come from a high-level department. He said seriously, "Doesn't this gentleman like games that set rules? We can send people to participate. For example, we may be able to study the mutation of the friend who entered with you. We will do our best to improve our relationship with this gentleman, and hope that he can pay more attention to Japan." Seeing the expression on Furuya Rei's face, he added, "Of course, based on the temperament of the adult you mentioned, we will select all criminals from our own country in the first step. We will not disturb the friend he sent out and admires very much..."
Fūya Rei was trying to control his emotions, and the smile on his face became warmer. I guess all the things I said before were in vain, right? He tried to be calm and said: "I don't think this is going to happen."
The man fell silent.
"Because the reason why he has not set foot in the secular world for so many years is to prevent that kind of power from affecting the world." Even though Furuya Rei didn't like this transcendent at the beginning, later on, he had to admit that he was far more noble than many people he had come into contact with. He has a god-like compassion. Although he does not have the passion of a human, he also does not have the greed or meanness of a human. He is more like a god than a man.
"He has persisted for so long, what makes you think he would break it for a group of strangers?" Furuya Rei was not excited, but every word he said hit the nail on the head, "He will not care about your political ideas, nor a country. I love my country, and I don't want you to anger him because of this."
The man glanced at Furuya Rei. The loyalty of this undercover agent had been proven long ago. Compared with him, he seemed too indifferent: "Does he really have no plans to contact the outside world? Then why did he send out the invitations? He has persisted for so long, does he really want to continue? It is a very sad thing to be bound by supernatural powers. Why can't we help him..."
Furiya Rei interrupted him coldly: "He said he only mastered a part of the power, and you really believed it?"
The man's face tensed, and he quickly asked, "What do you mean?"
Furuya Rei paused for a long time before saying, "I don't think he would reveal himself to the outside world before he has fully mastered the power, especially to a government agency like ours."
"Also, being able to completely separate a person from his mutated state," Fūya Ling tilted his head and asked, "Do you really think he doesn't have complete control over this power?"
The adults' conversation lasted for a long time, and Dazai Osamu soon came out of the Special Powers Department. He also went to listen to Gogol's scolding for a long time. It would be more accurate to say that it was a madness rather than a curse. Even though this white-clothed space-type psychic was bound to this point, he had not forgotten his signature tone.
"No, don't do this, let me go~ Why, why do you have to do such a cruel thing..." crying, "Is freedom so worthless? You and I are just clowns on God's stage, why do we have to hide in the dark corners and not dance with others... Let me liberate you, or, you, you liberate me?"
Dazai Osamu was sure that after this incident, this guy had become even crazier.
A few days later, Fūya Rei also walked out of the Ministry of Public Security. During these two days, he learned more about the people with special abilities in the world than he had in many years before. He knew about Chang'an Island and the seven people, and also knew about the transcendents in various countries. At the same time, he looked back at the sky, which was full of brilliant dusk colors. He also knew that there was one more transcendent in the jungle of this world—
He is a lonely man isolated from the human world, the master of another dimension, the king of rules and alienation, a saint who imprisons himself in the world, and a person who is separated forever.

After going through all this, Pei Zhen became known to all parties as an ordinary, unknown detective. Putting aside their reactions, the first thing that showed up was his light liquid molten ball that had been perfected several degrees.
+178, these are the numbers that have been pouring into his reputation ball non-stop in the past few days, and then there was another wave from Maori Ran and Maori Kogoro, +90. It seems that this high school girl is really grateful to him for saving Conan. Kogoro also said for the first time that he would invite him to a banquet. If it were in an anime, he would probably have become a key supporting character like Hattori Heiji.
Because he was no longer concerned about every bit of reputation gain, Pei Zhen only paid attention to the total income this time, including the amount earned from working under a pseudonym. This time he accumulated 912 light points, plus the six draws left, the total reached about 1,500.
Should he stay and draw a silver card, or invest in it and try his luck? Pei Zhen only thought about it for a moment and decided on the latter, because so far, he has not directly drawn a silver [Identity] and [Fashion] card, and the probability of delivering the goods at once is too small.
What disappointed Pei Zhen the most was why there was no fixed value for the gold card? If the golden finger has not sent any such prompts, it means that [Gold] can only come from two channels.
Golden achievement points were similar to the [Traveler] achievement he had gotten when he first arrived, or he could just rely on luck and draw directly from the Puka pool!
No matter which one it is, it means it will be difficult for him to get a second gold card. Thinking about these things, Pei Zhen yawned and decided to take a break for a while and, by the way, do some of the things he had planned to do before.
