When he heard Kiyohara Jun's voice, Dazai Osamu felt that the book that was burning in his chest became even hotter. The burning feeling seemed to penetrate his flesh and directly touch his heart.
Was there blood flowing from his chest? Dazai Osamu lowered his eyes slightly, but found that his chest was safe and sound. There was no blood stain on his suit, not even a wrinkle.
"Jun-kun, do you want me to hand over the book?" Dazai Osamu suppressed the burning sensation in his chest, maintained a smile on the surface, and asked Kiyohara Jun.
When he said, "Jun-kun, do you want me to hand over the book?", Dazai Osamu couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
The moment the words are spoken, the words turn into a sword and hurt people. In the past, this sword was aimed at the enemies of the Port Mafia, but now it is aimed at the leader of the Port Mafia, who is also Dazai Osamu's friend.
Kiyohara Jun was not the kind of person who would take the book for his own selfish desires. Even if Kiyohara Jun did ask him for the book, based on Dazai Osamu's understanding of Kiyohara Jun, it was to protect him.
But for some reason, Dazai Osamu subconsciously drew out his sharp sword called words and pointed it at his friend who was willing to take the risk of the "book" for him.
Even though Dazai Osamu regretted the moment he said it, he had already pulled out the blade, and it was very likely that damage had already been done.
Dazai Osamu opened his mouth slightly, and for a moment he wanted to say something, but the burning sensation in his chest made him close his mouth, and at the same time his face turned cold, as if he had intended to use his friend's name as a sharp blade of words from the beginning.
[What is Dazai doing...]
[How could Chun possibly want your book? You've always been smart, why can't you figure it out now?]
[Wuwuwu, I'm so anxious]
[I think Dazai actually knows that Jun doesn't want his book, but he has been in the hedgehog shell for too long, and now Jun is obviously trying to pull him out of the hedgehog shell. Dazai is scared, so he chooses to attack Jun with his spikes]
[Look carefully, at x minute xx second, Dazai opened his mouth slightly. It was obvious that he wanted to say something at that time, but not only did he not say anything, his face also turned cold.]
[Dazai... (with mixed feelings)]
[Wuwu, Jun, you must not give up on Dazai! He just stayed in the hedgehog shell for too long! He actually treats you as a friend! ]
At this moment, Kiyohara Jun did not notice any of the crying in the barrage, his attention was all on Dazai Osamu.
"I don't want the book." Kiyohara Jun stared at Dazai Osamu's cold face. It was rare to see Dazai with such an expression even at such a critical moment, but he was still distracted by it.
When hearing Kiyohara Jun's negative answer, Dazai Osamu didn't know whether he should breathe a sigh of relief, but the burning feeling in his chest became stronger and stronger.
Was this his hallucination, or was the book really getting hot? Dazai, who was always very sensitive, could no longer distinguish between hallucination and reality.
Maybe it wasn't that he couldn't tell the difference, but that he didn't want to tell the difference. He didn't want to admit that he cared about Kiyohara Jun to the point of causing phantom pain.
Even though many emotions were flowing through Dazai Osamu's heart, he still looked calm on the surface, as if Kiyohara Jun's words had not caused him the slightest effect.
Kiyohara Jun glanced at Dazai Osamu. He had always been extremely slow in perceiving emotions, so of course he did not notice Dazai Osamu's true emotions.
But Jun Kiyohara knew Dazai Osamu, and he knew that Dazai Osamu would never be angry with him because of this.
"Dazai, I'm keeping you here just to tell you one thing." Kiyohara Jun said succinctly. He didn't choose to fight with Dazai Osamu, but directly said what he wanted to say, "Don't let others know that the book is with you. I hope that if someone knows that the book is in the Port Mafia, then the information he gets is that I am the one who owns the book."
Dazai Osamu originally had a cold face and was going to listen to what Kiyohara Jun wanted to say to him, but after Kiyohara Jun said it, Dazai Osamu could no longer maintain the cold expression on his face.
Don't let other people know that the book is with him. If someone really knows that the book is with the Port Mafia, then the information that person must have received is that the book is with Chunjun?
The cold expression on Dazai Osamu's face completely collapsed, and he revealed an expression that could not be described in words. Even Kiyohara Jun, who was usually slow-witted, was shocked when he saw the expression on Dazai Osamu's face.
That expression was not scary, it could even be considered a weak expression, but when it appeared on Dazai Osamu, it was a little hard to accept.
However, if someone really knows Dazai Osamu, after being startled, they will think, ah, this is the expression Dazai might show.
After being startled, Kiyohara Jun quickly recovered to his normal state and still looked at Dazai Osamu with that expressionless face, but the aura around him was obviously much softer.
"Jun-kun." Dazai Osamu's eyes were filled with confusion. He felt that the book on his chest became so hot that he could hardly accept it. The hot temperature rushed along his skin and flesh into his heart, burning all the dirty and dark thoughts in his heart into black ashes, and then started a prairie fire in his heart.
[Dazai…]
[Dazai’s expression…]
[I just saw Dazai calling Jun-kun, and I couldn't help but shed tears]
[That extremely beautiful and dazzling thing appeared in front of Dazai Osamu]
[Dazai, what are you hesitating about! What are you hesitating about! Jun really treats you as a friend! The bond between you two is unbreakable, please speak up, don’t just yell!]
When Kiyohara Jun looked at Dazai Osamu, the hard ice in his eyes that had never melted for years actually showed a crack, and an emotion called tenderness appeared in those golden eyes that were without a trace of emotion.
"Dazai." Kiyohara Jun called Dazai's name softly. At this moment, his voice was extremely gentle. "I know you installed a bug in Lupin. You don't need to worry about me. I am stronger than you think.
"Besides, we are friends, right?" Kiyohara Jun looked into Dazai Osamu's confused eyes and asked this question in an affirmative tone.
The moment Kiyohara Jun said the words "we are friends", the expression on Dazai Osamu's face changed again, and a heavy rain fell silently on his burning chest, putting out the raging fire completely. Then, something softer than cotton hit his chest, wiping the blood from his burns bit by bit.
Dazai Osamu lowered his eyes, a trace of helplessness flashed across his face, but in the end everything returned to calm, and he returned to his usual extremely relaxed expression, as if he was preparing for a suicide.
"Yes, Jun-kun." Dazai Osamu said nonchalantly, "We are friends." Then Dazai Osamu silently added in his heart, "That's why I won't let you bear the risk of the book alone."
【Uoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo】
【I cried so loudly】
[Dazai was finally pulled out of Jun's hedgehog shell. I originally thought that Jun's hands would have to be covered with scales before he could successfully pull Dazai out. What I didn't expect was that Dazai was reluctant to let Jun's hands become covered with scales. Jun just stretched out his hand towards the hedgehog shell, and Dazai hesitated for a while before holding Jun's hand.]
[My current mood is very complicated, I don’t know how to describe it. Maybe, this is friendship]
[This kind of bond made me cry]
[And if you look at Dazai's confession, when he said "So, I won't let you take the risk of the book alone", he didn't open his mouth! So he made this decision alone, isn't this very similar to Jun?]
[Dazai, you! You're making me so angry! Why are you taking it all on your own? You've already admitted that you and Jun are friends, so why don't you take it together?]
[I feel like I’m going to have to go through surgery in the future]
Perhaps it was God's will. Kiyohara Jun, who had not looked at the barrage because he had been paying attention to Dazai Osamu, actually looked at the barrage again at this moment and saw Dazai Osamu's inner monologue.
Kiyohara Jun: ...
We clearly agreed that we are friends and friends should face difficulties together, but Dazai, you are trying to be tough on your own again!
"Dazai." Kiyohara Jun looked up at Dazai Osamu. He didn't know why. Kiyohara Jun was always slow to respond, but when he met Kiyohara Jun's eyes, Dazai Osamu felt that Kiyohara Jun had seen through his inner thoughts. That was for sure. The barrage had already shown Kiyohara Jun his thoughts word for word. "I told you, we are friends. Let's deal with the book together."
The first moment he heard Kiyohara Jun's words, Dazai Osamu might have been infected by Kiyohara Jun, and his first reaction was not emotion like being touched, but - when did Jun-kun become so sensitive?
Of course, the indecent behavior only lasted for a moment, and Dazai Osamu quickly returned to his normal state.
"Jun-kun." Dazai Osamu looked up at Kiyohara Jun. He just opened his mouth to say something when he was stopped by Kiyohara Jun's action.
Jun Kiyohara reached out and tore off the bandage that was wrapped around Dazai Osamu's right eye.
"According to research, certain organs will degenerate if they are not used for a long time," said Jun Kiyohara seriously.
Of course. Kiyohara Jun added in his mind that the comments often complained that Dazai's skin would have color difference when he covered his eyes like this, and he also wanted to see if Dazai's skin had color difference.
