Chapter 86



Dazai Osamu on the other end of the phone did not respond immediately to Kiyohara Jun's words. He just looked quietly at the cup of coffee in front of him that he had already drunk half of.

Listening to Dazai Osamu's light breathing coming from the phone, Kiyohara Jun waited patiently for Dazai Osamu's reply and did not urge Dazai Osamu.

Just like that, once again, only the breathing sounds of the two people were still being heard on the line.

After this brief yet long silence, Dazai finally spoke.

"Yeah." Dazai Osamu said softly. His voice was so soft and small, as if he was afraid that his voice would be too loud and disturb something.

After hearing Dazai Osamu's answer, Kiyohara Jun nodded slightly and then hung up the phone.

On the other side, Dazai Osamu listened to the busy tone of the phone after hanging up, and just sat there with his eyes lowered, his eyelashes trembling constantly.

Finally, the shaking stopped. Dazai Osamu picked up the half-drunk cup of coffee in front of him and drank it all in one gulp with unprecedented boldness. Then he finally returned to his normal state.

Dazai Osamu took the earphones that he had taken off when answering the phone, put the phone back into his pocket, hummed a strange tune, and skipped out of the coffee shop.

When passing by the trash can, Dazai Osamu loosened his grip and the pair of headphones worth 100,000 yen were casually thrown into the trash can.

Seeing Dazai Osamu throwing the headphones into the trash can, the coffee shop clerk seemed to be hesitant to speak. He originally wanted to walk over and say something, but when he saw the look in Dazai Osamu when he tilted his head, he was shocked by the emotion in those eyes and took a few steps back. He just watched Dazai Osamu hum a song and walked out of the coffee shop.

[Although Dazai has returned to his normal state, I feel that he is even more pitiful]

[I feel sorry for Dazai, sob sob]

[Jun, you must pull Dazai out of his hedgehog shell! ]

After hanging up the phone call to Dazai Osamu, Kiyohara Jun did not choose to tell Nakahara Chuuya about his conversation with Natsume Soseki, but instead slightly tilted his head to look at the night view on both sides of the road.

At night in Yokohama City, although the sidewalks were still deserted because the Dragon War had just ended, the shops on both sides of the road were brightly lit, and lights were also shining from the windows of residential buildings not far away.

This is a scene that you don't see in the dragon war. In the dragon war, let alone at night, even during the day, most shops chose to close, and residents dared not turn on the lights in their buildings at night, for fear of becoming a target or attracting desperate criminals to rob.

As Qingyuan Jun looked at this peaceful scene, his heart, which had been a little tense because of the book, gradually relaxed.

"It's great." Jun Kiyohara looked out the window at the sight of thousands of lights on Yokohama and touched the window with his hand. He repeated in a low voice, "It's great."

After hearing Kiyohara Jun's exclamation, Nakahara Chuuya, who was originally concentrating on driving, took a look at what Kiyohara Jun was looking at. When he saw the night view of Yokohama outside the car window, Nakahara Chuuya quickly understood the meaning of Kiyohara Jun's exclamation.

"Yes." Nakahara Chuuya raised his lips, his face full of high spirits, "I believe that under your leadership, the Port Mafia will make Yokohama a better place."

After hearing what Nakahara Chuuya said, Kiyohara Jun neither denied nor confirmed it, but the aura around him seemed to be a lot softer. But upon closer inspection, he still seemed calm, as if he was not moved at all by Nakahara Chuuya's words.

But Nakahara Chuuya knew that Kiyohara Jun did respond to what he said.

The red sports car sped along the night road of Yokohama, and finally returned to the Port Mafia after passing numerous inspections.

After parking the car in the underground garage, Nakahara Chuuya did not say anything like "I'm leaving", and tacitly took the elevator to the top floor where the leader's office was located with Kiyohara Jun.

When the two of them came out of the elevator, in front of the door of the leader's office, stood a figure that they were both very familiar with. The figure was holding a purple mushroom in his hand and was carefully observing the mushroom, which was obviously a poisonous mushroom.

"Dazai." Kiyohara Jun called out the name of the figure who was holding the poisonous mushroom up to the light.

"Jun-kun." Dazai Osamu, who seemed to have not noticed the arrival of Kiyohara Jun and Nakahara Chuuya, turned around with a look of surprise when he heard Kiyohara Jun's voice. Then he rushed over in two steps, holding the poisonous mushroom in his hand and said excitedly to Kiyohara Jun, "This is a mushroom I found in the underground garage. It looks very delicious, so I picked it."

He held the poisonous mushroom in front of Qingyuan Jun like a treasure, and said with twinkling eyes: "How about we use this mushroom to make soup as a midnight snack tonight?"

Being completely ignored, Nakahara Chuuya had a cross on his forehead. He glared at Dazai Osamu fiercely and said with gritted teeth: "You suicidal maniac, if you want to die, go die by yourself, don't drag Jun down with you!"

When Dazai Osamu heard what Nakahara Chuuya said, he scratched his ears and looked around while holding the poisonous mushroom: "Hey? Was there anyone talking just now? Why can't I see anyone else here besides Jun-kun and me? Could it be..."

"Okay, Dazai, Chuuya." Kiyohara Jun interrupted Dazai Osamu and successfully stopped Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya before they quarreled for the 5371st time. "Go to the leader's room first. I have something to tell you."

Both Nakahara Chuuya, who had an angry look on his face, and Dazai Osamu, who had a provocative expression, returned to their normal state after hearing what Kiyohara Jun said. The two turned their heads away and did not look at each other, and just followed Kiyohara Jun into the leader's room.

After entering the leader's room, Kiyohara Jun sat down on the chair on the other side of the bulletproof glass wall of the leader's room with familiarity and waved to Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya.

The three of them sat down on chairs, and on the small round table surrounded by the chairs was an unopened bottle of whiskey.

Nakahara Chuuya opened the bottle of wine skillfully, and then poured a glass of whiskey for him and Kiyohara Jun respectively. Then, after showing a provocative expression to Dazai Osamu, he placed the bottle of whiskey heavily in front of Dazai Osamu.

Dazai Osamu was not annoyed. He smiled and poured himself a glass of whiskey.

Kiyohara Jun watched the little movements of Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya with an expressionless face. He almost thought that the 5372nd quarrel was about to begin and he would be forced to listen to the two people's quarrel in two channels again. Fortunately, perhaps these two people had a little awareness of the importance of serious matters, and this time they did not quarrel in front of him.

Seeing that the two of them didn't quarrel, Kiyohara Jun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He really didn't want to listen to Dazai and Chuuya's elementary school quarrel.

"I called you two here because I want to tell you one thing." Qingyuan Jun took a sip of whiskey and said after putting down the glass, "It's about the book."

"Is it because of the group?" Nakahara Chuuya frowned slightly, "I always thought that the existence of the book was just a legend, but now it seems that it is not a legend? If the group comes to Yokohama and their purpose is leaked, then the fact that the book that can fulfill all wishes really exists will definitely cause an uproar, and Yokohama will also fall into chaos. It is very likely that there will be a second dragon war."

"I don't quite understand why you want to reject the group, Jun. After all, helping the group find the book in advance, as long as the good news is hidden, it can prevent Yokohama from falling into chaos."

After hearing what Nakahara Chuuya said, Kiyohara Jun just shook his head slightly and opened his mouth to throw out a bombshell.

"No, it's not that." Qingyuan Jun lowered his eyes and said, "The book is in my hand."

【Fuck】

【Chun, what is this? ? 】

[For Dazai's sake, even Chuuya lied? The book is clearly in Dazai's hand! ]

[Well, I can understand that. After all, Chuuya's acting is not that great. If Chuuya is told that the book is in Dazai's hands, I can guarantee that Chuuya himself will never reveal it, but I cannot guarantee that Chuuya's actions will not reveal this information.]

[Jun Zhen... For a moment, I didn't know what to say]

[I don’t dare to look at Dazai’s expression]

When they heard what Kiyohara Jun said, Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya were both shocked.

Dazai Osamu looked at Kiyohara Jun in astonishment. He opened his mouth to say something, but a look from Kiyohara Jun stopped him from saying anything.

After being stopped by Kiyohara Jun, Dazai Osamu opened his mouth slightly, but ultimately said nothing.

Dazai Osamu had never felt so touched by the book in his arms.

Even Zhong wants to lie, Chunjun, what are you...

Dazai Osamu only felt that there was something hot and scalding touching him where the book was placed on his chest, leaving scars and blisters on his chest.

After that, he could no longer hear what Kiyohara Jun and Nakahara Chuuya said to each other. His thoughts were completely absorbed by the burning book in his chest.

Since getting the book, Dazai Osamu has never regretted taking it. The only time he felt a little regret was when Kiyohara Jun admitted in front of Natsume Soseki that the book was in his possession. However, this regret was nothing compared to the disgust he felt now.

Dizzy and nauseous, Dazai Osamu felt as if he was in the center of a rapidly spinning kaleidoscope.

"That's the end of the plan, Chuuya, you can go back." Kiyohara Jun glanced at the time and ordered Nakahara Chuuya to leave.

Nakahara Chuuya nodded slightly. He didn't even look at Dazai Osamu, who had just become uneasy, and just stood up and left.

After Nakahara Chuuya left, Kiyohara Jun looked at Dazai Osamu.

"Dazai."
