Chapter 55

Main world.

Dazai Osamu opened the book in his hand. When he turned to a certain page, he suddenly stopped, his fingertips lightly touching the blank paper, and his eyes became distant, as if he had traveled through time and space and saw some timeless picture...

...

A world ruled by men.

Dazai closed the book in his hand, stood up and stretched his waist. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The door opened and Fukuzawa Yukichi walked in. He glanced at the book Dazai placed on the table, then withdrew his gaze as usual and asked, "Have you considered the succession to the position of president?"

Dazai Osamu did not answer this question, but asked back at this time: "Isn't it a coincidence that the president appeared in front of me that year?"

Meeting the determined gaze of the black-haired young man, Fukuzawa Yukichi couldn't help but be stunned, because he remembered the first time he met Dazai.

As Dazai said, his appearance was not a coincidence, but he was entrusted by someone. According to that person's description, Dazai was sensitive and suspicious. He thought that it would take a lot of effort to bring the person back. Unexpectedly, when Dazai saw him, he didn't ask anything and just followed him. He was as well-behaved as a little animal waiting to be adopted. For a time, he thought he had found the wrong person...

It was not until the establishment of the detective agency that Dazai showed a sophistication far beyond his age and helped the detective agency solve several commissions in succession. Only then did he understand why the man had asked him for help.

Ranpo is confused about the social etiquette of ordinary people because he is young and inexperienced, but Dazai is the opposite of Ranpo. He may have seen through too much and thus fell into a state of confusion where he can't find his direction.

These two children are very special. Their talents are far beyond those of ordinary people, and even make some ordinary people feel scared. It is precisely because of this that they need special guidance and care.

In recent years, the work of the detective agency has progressed smoothly. After all, there are two members who are like cheats. However, he has consumed no less energy. Also because of the two members who are like cheats, he can never predict what "surprises" they will bring back for him when they come back from outside.

For example, not long ago, Dazai suddenly disappeared for a few days, but when he came back, he told him that he had been away to deal with a supernatural organization that would threaten Yokohama. In the process of solving the problem, he accidentally caused some trouble, so he might need to come forward to negotiate with the Supernatural Special Agent Department...

He didn't know why Dazai did this. After all, since the establishment of the detective agency, Dazai had never taken any initiative except accepting commissions that came to him. Most of the time, he stayed in his room reading a book. The book had a cover and he had no idea of ​​the title. However, judging from the fact that Dazai had been holding the book in his hands for so many years, it must be a great work...

"After becoming the president, would it be inappropriate to visit the Mafia?"

Dazai Osamu suddenly spoke, and Fukuzawa Yukichi's thoughts were pulled back. He looked at the young man in front of him who was thinking seriously, and suddenly realized something: "You already know..."

“Know what?” Dazai looked at him innocently.

Even though they have known each other for many years, Fukuzawa Yukichi still cannot fully understand Dazai Osamu. Sometimes this guy is as naive as a child, sometimes he is so naughty that he wants others to brainwash him, and sometimes he falls into a kind of self-darkness that makes people discouraged... However, no matter what, it is a good thing to meet a friend who truly cares about him.

"The leader of the Black Hand Gang wants to see you." Fukuzawa Yukichi said.

Oda Sakunosuke suddenly wanted to meet Dazai because something happened not long ago that was beyond his expectations. That is, before the black hand organization took action, the Mimic organization that came to Yokohama was resolved, and the person who did it was Dazai.

Oda Sakunosuke couldn't think of a reason why Dazai suddenly took action, unless Dazai knew something just like him... To confirm, he said he wanted to meet Dazai when he contacted Fukuzawa Yukichi.

"I am also looking forward to meeting the leader of the Black Hand Gang." Dazai Osamu thought of something with a faint smile on his face, "However, before that, I have to meet another person first."

In front of the Lupin Bar, Dazai Osamu and a pale-faced young man were staring at each other from a distance. Pedestrians passed by them, but they seemed unaware of it. It was not until the street became sparsely populated and only the two of them were left that they started walking towards each other.

"It's really not easy to see you." Dazai Osamu said.

"Mr. Dazai is very humble." Fyodor said, "I just showed up and you found me." After that, he glanced at the bar next to him and invited him, "Would you like to have a drink with me?"

"No." Dazai Osamu refused bluntly. Lupin was a place for gathering with friends, and he didn't want to use it to entertain the people in front of him.

Dazai turned and walked towards a nearby cafe. Fyodor paused and followed him.

In the cafe, Fyodor looked at the young man with iris eyes who was stirring coffee in front of him, and said calmly: "The interpretation of possibility is 'the property that can become reality'. Don't you want to make the possibility become a reality?"

Dazai Osamu put down the spoon in his hand and picked up the coffee cup. The heat made the scene in front of him blurry. He smiled faintly: "May exist. Of these four words, the beautiful one is not 'existence', but 'maybe'."

Just like many people who encounter setbacks in reality can't help but fantasize about many possibilities, but once the possibility becomes the only reality, it loses its original romantic and hazy attributes.

"So that's how you understand it..."

"Yes, so in order to keep the possibility going, I can only ask you to sacrifice yourself this time." Dazai looked at the young man opposite him, as if what he proposed was not an excessive request, and what he said was not heartfelt, "Anyway, your goal can no longer be achieved in this world."

Fyodor did not deny Dazai's words. His goal has always been clear, which is to create a world without superpowers. As one of the countless possibilities, his goal is to create a possible world without superpowers, and then wait for him in the main world to summon this possibility into reality.

And when he was targeted by Dazai as soon as he appeared, he knew that he had lost the initiative and the chance to achieve his goal in this possible world.

Since he couldn't achieve his goal in this world, there was no need for him to stay any longer, but...

"Why should I listen to you?" Fyodor asked back. He picked up two sugar cubes and threw them into the coffee cup, stirring it slowly.

"The victor goes to the loser, and it's very ungraceful for the loser to cheat." After saying this, Dazai stood up and left the cafe, leaving an untouched cup of coffee on the table behind him, as well as a tip for the waiter.

Fyodor looked at Dazai's back. He picked up the cold coffee and took a sip. The not-so-mellow taste spread in his mouth, but he suddenly smiled.

Although he failed here, their confrontation would continue in other worlds. As Dazai said, "possibility" is a wonderful thing. It is infinite. Among the infinite possibilities, he only needs to succeed once.

As for the possibility at hand, there is really no need to waste time here...

...

After becoming the president of the Armed Detective Agency, the first thing Dazai Osamu did was to send an invitation to the leader of the port mafia. The form was very formal, but the content seemed a bit casual because the meeting place was a small bar.

Lupin Bar, when Oda Sakunosuke saw this meeting place, he became more certain of his previous guess that Dazai must know something.

After having this thought, Oda Sakunosuke suddenly felt a little nervous about the next meeting, because he didn't know how to face Dazai who knew the truth.

Even when he became the leader of the Mafia, he wasn't so nervous.

On the way to the appointment, he even imagined many opening remarks after the meeting, such as asking the other party when and how he found out. After thinking about it, he felt that this was a bit too direct. If he guessed wrong, it would be very impolite. Why not just treat it as a meeting between the leaders of two organizations and greet each other normally? ...

Until he pushed open the door of Lupin Bar, Oda Sakunosuke was still not sure what to say to Dazai after meeting him. Dazai was already sitting at the bar inside the bar. When he heard him come in, he turned around and looked over.

The dim warm light silently poured down, and the faint aroma of wine lingered in the air. The black-haired young man with iris eyes smiled brilliantly and looked at him and said, "Odasaku, you're here."

At this moment, Odasaku suddenly realized that he didn't need to worry about how to start. The young man only needed to call him to bring him back to the familiar past.

It seems that here, in addition to the intoxicating wine, what has been brewing with time is also the past events they have experienced together. Now that the time is right, the wine is brewed, and the past events remain the same, it is the best time to drink and talk happily.

Odasaku smiled at some point. He walked to his seat. There were three glasses on the bar in front of him. He said, "It looks like Ango is late again."

Dazai tapped the cup in front of him and said, "When Ango comes over, I'll punish him by making him drink one more cup."

"Forget it. Ango should be very busy."

"It's a rare occasion for us to get together, Odasaku, please stop making excuses for Ango." Dazai said, "Neither you nor I were late."

"It's different. Grassroots work is more tedious."

"Is that so?"

Dazai turned his head to look at the door of the bar, and a black-haired young man wearing glasses happened to walk in at this moment. He looked at the two people sitting in front of the bar with an uncertain expression.

Ango was not late on purpose, but because he received invitations from the leader of the port mafia and the president of the Armed Detective Agency at the same time. This seemed like a prank, but the key point was that the people who sent the invitations were indeed members of the mafia and the detective agency...

Before and even now, he had been thinking, could it be that he had done something out of the ordinary, so he attracted the attention of the leaders of the two major supernatural organizations in Yokohama? But even if that was the case, there was no reason for the two leaders to sit together and meet with him...

Ango walked over and sat down in the empty seat next to Odasaku. He glanced at the three wine glasses on the table and turned to the two people next to him: "What is it that you two asked me out?"

"It's nothing, but I just thought of something." Dazai said with a smile, "Ango, do you need our help?"

"Help with what?" Ango had no idea what Dazai was talking about.

"I'll help you get promoted to the head of the Special Powers Division."

Ango: “…………”

Seeing Dazai thinking seriously, Ango felt that if he didn't speak up, the newly appointed president might really take action...

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't have such a need at the moment."

“Really? Not necessary?” Dazai seemed to be regretful.

"unnecessary……"

"Zhi, please don't make things difficult for Ango."

Odasaku spoke at this time, and Ango looked over in surprise. He suddenly realized that the relationship between the two gentlemen sitting in front of him seemed to be very unusual.

"I just want to help Ango solve the problem of being too busy at work." Dazai acted innocently, "Does Odasaku have any better solution?"

Odasaku was led astray by Dazai and really started to think seriously. After thinking for a while, he said, "The Black Hand Gang has been recruiting capable subordinates."

"The Special Service Division's Chief Taneda won't let him go so easily, will he?" Dazai continued. He thought about it and suddenly his eyes lit up. "I think it would be better to let Ango join the Mafia as an undercover agent. This way, he can get the salary from the Special Service Division and easily fish in the Mafia. It's like killing two birds with one stone."

Ango: “…………”

"Ango, what do you think?"

Dazai asked Ango for his opinion, and Oda Saku also looked at him. In this situation, Ango felt that he should be nervous, but he found that he was completely unable to be nervous, and he even felt very relaxed.

Maybe it was because the two people next to him acted too casually, like old friends casually chatting about a topic. Maybe it was because every time they said his name, they sounded too familiar with it, as if he was one of their old friends.

Ango picked up the wine glass in front of him and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I feel good now."

"But Ango can't be late for every party."

"You should manage the Black Hand and the Detective Agency well.

I would have less than half the work to do.”

Odasaku and Dazai also raised their glasses, and the three of them looked at each other.

"Cheers to the Mafia."

"Cheers to the Detective Agency."

"Cheers to not working overtime."

...

Main world.

Dazai Osamu closed the book and let the picture in his mind freeze at the most beautiful moment.

He looked out the window. He didn't know when autumn came again. The sky became high and unattainable. People on the ground looked up and always felt lonely.

Dazai walked along a path, layers of fallen leaves covering many traces. He reached out and brushed away a few fallen leaves on the tombstone. Looking at the words on the tombstone, he suddenly spoke: "Odasaku, I saw a perfect world of possibilities, so perfect that I couldn't help but want to write them down in [a book] and make them a reality..."

“But after thinking about it, I still didn’t start writing.”

The refreshing autumn breeze blew, bringing down a few more leaves. Dazai caught one and held it in his hand.

"Because I think the perfect book should be written by you."

"I'll leave this opportunity to you. When will you return a book to me?"

Dazai Osamu loosened his grip, and the leaf in his hand slowly fell down, joining the many fallen leaves at his feet.

At this moment, Dazai suddenly took a step back, because the fallen leaves under his feet seemed to respond to his words and suddenly moved...

Dazai blinked curiously and realized that it was not the fallen leaves that were moving, but the land beneath them.

Under Dazai's gaze, a hand stretched out from the mud, then another hand, and then the young man with burgundy hair woke up from the mud.

“…………”

“…………”

The unexpected way of meeting made both of them silent for a moment.

Dazai looked at the dirt and dead leaves on Odasaku's body, and for some reason, he suddenly laughed.

Oda Sakuya looked at himself and smiled helplessly.

"What are we going to do next?" Dazai asked.

"I might need to take a shower and change my clothes," Odasaku said.

"What about after you finish this?" Dazai asked again.

Odasaku's eyes fell on Dazai's sand-colored windbreaker, and he said, "Write a novel."

“Can you let me see it when you’re done?”

"Of course……"
