Chapter 245 The Third Player

Is he dreaming?

Xi Haiqing Dou was confused.

Otherwise, why would we see such a bizarre and fantastic picture?

Xi Haiqing Dou was very confused.

No, even if he dreamed, he wouldn't dream of such a surreal thing... Isn't this too weird?

While Saikai Haruto was pulling "Dazai Osamu" out of the river, his mind was still not fully recovered.

So, why are the players like this this time? !

"Cough, cough, cough. Thank you for carrying me up, you unknown good man." The young man, who was all wet, half fell to the ground. He coughed the river water that had entered his mouth, and thanked Xihai Qingdou with a smile. The smile on his face looked like it was painted on.

The young man he pulled out of the river was wearing a black three-piece suit and an extra-large black coat, with a long bright red scarf wrapped around his neck. Many parts of his body exposed to the air were wrapped with bandages, even his left eye was covered with a white bandage, leaving only his right eye exposed.

He looked to be in his early 20s, very thin, with short black hair, a pale face, and a dark and empty look in his iris-colored eyes, with a hint of dark circles under his eyes - he looked like he hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

Of course, more importantly, the young man had a handsome face, a look that was very familiar to Saikai Haruto. He looked almost exactly like Dazai Osamu. If there was any difference, it was probably that the young man in front of him looked thinner, slimmer, and more mature.

He doesn't look like the underage Dazai Osamu of 17 or 18 years old now, but rather like the adult Dazai Osamu from the future.

Xi Haiqingdou looked up at the name displayed above his head.

——A blank, nothing.

——He is a “player”.

One of the few special features that the system can provide: all characters who appear in the comics and have a role to play will have their corresponding names and identities displayed above their heads in Xi Haiqing Dou's eyes. The only exception is the "players" - because they come from other worlds and are not completely compatible with this world.

Although the guy in front of me has a face of Dazai Osamu, and his tone and expression are extremely similar to Dazai Osamu, to the point of being indistinguishable from Dazai Osamu...but there is nothing above his head, how could it be Dazai Osamu?

——So he is not "Dazai Osamu", but a "player".

Xihai Qingdou's mind was confused and he suddenly had a headache.

——Is it Dazai Osamu, the leader of the Hong Kong gangsters in the BEAST line? This guy’s outfit must be that, right? Is the identity of the player this time so outrageous? ! !

However, although he was in a panic, Xihai Qingdou still kept a calm face, still with the unchanging calm look of Mochizuki Xun.

"You're injured. I haven't seen you for a few days. Why are you like this?" He looked at the young man with the same familiarity as usual, but with a little more worry and doubt than usual. He slowly gave his name: "Dazai?"

"Did something happen in Hong Kong underworld? Or, do you need me to help you contact Zhongyuan Jun?" he asked.

The "Dazai" in front of him was different from the one in his memory, in terms of body shape, appearance, and eyes - and the most obvious difference was the eyes.

"Dazai Osamu" had never revealed such a look in his eyes before - dark and empty, as if it were a bottomless abyss that could sweep everything in, so dark that not a single light could be seen.

That is definitely not the look that the current Dazai Osamu would have.

Of course, apart from that, there were other things - for example, his body had suddenly become extremely thin, and his face had become much paler than in the past few days.

But he is indeed "Dazai Osamu"... Mochizuki Kaoru looked at the young man in front of her hesitantly, and suddenly a rare uncertainty arose in her heart - although Dazai would occasionally play some pranks, but is the "Dazai" in front of him really the Dazai Osamu that he knew and was familiar with?

Or, why did he suddenly become like this? Did something happen?

…He’s someone who knows Dazai Osamu and they seem to be close, but he’s not a member of the Port Mafia.

"Dazai Osamu" made the judgment easily.

Good question. He also wants to know what happened to the Hong Kong underworld.

The young man with black hair and ivy eyes, with water still dripping from his body, raised his head and looked at the "kind-hearted person" in front of him who had pulled him out of the river with a little seriousness.

She looked to be in her twenties, but probably not yet thirty. She was wearing a purple-gray kimono, which was a rare outfit for her in daily life. She was probably a more reserved and conservative type - most people nowadays prefer to wear simpler clothes. Of course, there were other reasons.

The young man has a pair of square glasses with gold-rimmed frames on his nose. He has an elegant and calm temperament. His purple-black medium-length hair falls to his shoulders, but he doesn't look non-mainstream. Instead, he looks like a scholar. But if you look closely at his appearance, you will find that he actually has a strong facial color. He has a high nose bridge, neat and smooth facial lines, a pair of standard peach blossom eyes, and a faint blue tint in his light gray eyes. He looks particularly focused when looking at people. There is a teardrop mole under his right eye. His lips are thin and slightly curled up, and he looks like he is smiling even when he is not smiling. His facial features combined together automatically remind people of adjectives such as "beautiful eyebrows and eyes", "graceful and elegant", and "romantic".

But if you look further away, the young man's temperament automatically overwhelms the impression given by his appearance... and the glasses also well cover up the impact brought by those overly beautiful peach blossom eyes and the teardrop mole under his eyes.

...Maybe he is a person who is very good at pretending. "Dazai Osamu" thought. But he pretended not to be very serious...Or maybe he just pretended not to be "serious" in front of him?

Whether it was his movements, the tone of his voice when he spoke to him, or the look in his eyes, all of them showed that the young man in front of him was familiar with "Dazai Osamu". And he did not have any hostility. But he did not know him, and he had no impression of him at all - this was not right. If it was someone he knew, he would definitely remember him, especially since the young man's appearance was so impressive.

But, that's not necessarily the case... After all, wasn't he just being hunted down by the gangsters from Hong Kong? Inexplicably, without reason, and unwaveringly being hunted down. Didn't he also search through all his memories and still not be able to find the reason?

"Dazai Osamu" lowered his eyes slightly.

"Well, can you take me to your house?" Without answering the other party's two questions, he asked the young man with a smile.

He couldn't contact Nakahara Chuuya, nor could he contact other members of the Gang Black... At least he had to wait until he figured out why the Gang Black was hunting him down. Otherwise, what if Nakahara Chuuya saw him and planned to kill him without saying a word? Although he was now "Dazai Osamu", he could defeat all enemies with his own strength. With Nakahara Chuuya's strength, he could beat him to death even if his special ability was useless.

In short, the best way right now is probably to follow this person in front of him who knows who he is and seems to have a good relationship with him but he doesn't know him at all, and go to the other person's home... right?

"Dazai Osamu" was hesitant in his heart and tried to make a judgment.

He was shot before entering the water, and it hurt like hell... Normally he would have wailed in pain, but at this moment he felt strangely numb to the pain... It hurt so much, it was unbearable, but he could bear it. So much so that he couldn't make any other expression on his face at this moment.

But even so, it still hurts a lot... and because he fell into the water, his body was cold and even his stomach was feeling a burning pain. He was not a masochist, so the most important thing was to find a place to rest and clean and bandage his wounds.

He saw the handsome eyebrows of the young man in front of him slightly wrinkled, and the doubt in his light gray eyes deepened. But he still nodded to him.

"Dazai Osamu" shook off the water droplets on his head and just as he was about to stand up, the young man reached out and pulled him up.

The other person's palms are warm and heavy, with some fingers and palms covered with strings. He knows martial arts, and perhaps he often holds a gun, and he also often writes.

"Dazai Osamu" almost immediately made the judgment in his heart.

"You look like this now...are you being chased by someone? Is it dangerous?" The young man asked him without any precautions. The timbre of his voice was as deep and magnetic as a cello, which was particularly pleasant to hear.

"Yes, I was suddenly hunted by many people, and I couldn't even figure out the whole story."

"Dazai Osamu" said, his face looking a bit nonchalant: "It was very dangerous, I almost died."

Then the young man's expression became more solemn.

You should believe it, right?

But it doesn't matter if you don't believe it, because what he said is true anyway - whether it's about being hunted down suddenly and inexplicably, or about almost dying.

...When he thought of this, Dazai Osamu couldn't help but become irritated.

He had just entered the "game" and had done almost nothing, just casually walking around on the street. Why was he suddenly chased by the Port Mafia? What happened? Did he enter the wrong game? But did he read the game manual carefully before entering the game? Is there a bug in the game? !

"Dazai Osamu" almost couldn't control his own ooc character.

Even if he died like this, it wouldn't be a big deal, and it didn't matter to him, he could just quit the game and start over. And his current identity is "Dazai Osamu", or the "Leader Zai" in the BEAST line. According to his character setting, "death" is also his pursuit, and he is not afraid of death, but he just - very unhappy! ! It's too embarrassing and weird to have to reload the game right after entering the game? !

...and being injured is really painful and uncomfortable. Dazai Osamu's tolerance should be very low. He already feels uncomfortable all over. He can't stand it at all. He was injured for no reason and died and quit the game. Then wasn't his pain in vain?

In short, he was very upset. Whether it was his original personality or the fact that he was now wearing the shell of "Leader Zai" and was influenced by the personality of "Dazai Osamu", even if he originally didn't feel anything about dying in the game and thought it was a big deal, he didn't want to die like this now.

Dazai Osamu made up his mind.

First figure out what the BUG in this crappy game is, then get rid of the other party - and then quit the negative review and complain all in one go.

Bad review, must be bad review.

Saikai Haruto didn't take the person home, but took him to a villa. It wasn't the "temporary residence" villa he had taken Dazai Osamu to before, but another one - after all, he had a lot of money and a lot of houses.

When Dazai Osamu was being hunted and he had doubts about the identity of the other party, bringing the person home was obviously not a good choice - even if his home was fine, with so many flowers and plants in the house and problems with the manuscripts, it would not be an option.

...In short, before he could figure out what to do next and what was going on with this player in the shell of "Boss Killer", it would be better not to let them see it for the time being.

Stay calm and don't panic... Although he is really a little confused now - although he has also thought about it in his mind, since Dazai Osamu has seen him in the "book", then he has naturally seen the "player" and knows the identity of the "player". Moreover, since Dazai Osamu and "Mochizuki Kaoru" are good friends, he is naturally hostile to the "player" and may even plan to kill Mochizuki Kaoru before the other party... Maybe his script this time should be changed to kill the "player" before Dazai Osamu takes action, or for the player to "fall out" with Dazai Osamu... He even thought of the situation where this mission fails.

But he could never imagine that the identity of a "player" could be directly based on the original character's shell? !

Great. Everything I had expected was messed up. For the first time, Xi Haiqing Dou's mind was a mess, and he felt extremely confused.

There is only one Dazai Osamu in this world, there is no need for two Dazai Osamu - and two "Dazai Osamu" who have both received the "book"! !
