Chapter 271 The Third Player

In a street in Yokohama that belongs to the Port Mafia, a thick white fog suddenly rose from nowhere. The fog quickly spread to the entire street in just a few seconds. Strangely, the street that was originally filled with countless people became eerily quiet, as if it had suddenly become a deserted place.

A few minutes later, the white mist dissipated in an instant, and the whole street seemed to "come alive" again in an instant, leaving only a dead body somewhere - it was a supernatural being from the Port Mafia who had stayed in this street before.

According to the last of the three principles that the Port Mafia must not violate, "An attack must be returned double", facing this behavior which is tantamount to a provocation to the Port Mafia, no member of the Port Mafia can tolerate it, and the person behind the scenes must be caught no matter what. But here comes the problem: this time, except for the psychic who was attacked, all other ordinary members of the Port Mafia were not killed or injured, and no one even saw who killed the psychic.

Even the mysterious “white fog” was only discovered after someone investigated the surrounding surveillance – but when the white fog was spreading, no one knew what was happening.

And judging from the circumstances surrounding the death of the deceased psychic, it seems that he even died at the hands of his own psychic powers.

A person with special abilities died for no apparent reason, and they didn't even see the face of the murderer. It was like a slap in the face to the Port Mafia, but they couldn't find the person. It was a complete shame and humiliation for the Port Mafia... What's even more annoying is that this kind of thing happened more than once. Within just one day, similar white fog appeared in several areas under the jurisdiction of the Hong Kong underworld. No one could see anyone in the white fog. When the fog dissipated, ordinary people without special abilities reappeared in the original place intact, while people with special abilities would die at the hands of their own special abilities.

By the time Dazai Osamu heard about this, a full day had passed since the first "suicide by a superpower" in the white mist.

Compared with the various "emergencies" encountered by the Port Mafia in the past, the speed of reaction that reached Dazai Osamu this time was completely "too slow", almost a "dereliction of duty".

But there is nothing we can do about it.

Or it could be said that it is the inevitable result of various coincidences colliding with each other.

After all, the past two days have been a turbulent time for the port Mafia.

Two days ago, the leader of the Port Mafia suddenly gave the order to the lower-level members to "track down Dazai Osamu in Yokohama and kill him directly". No one knew what the leader was thinking, but everyone knew that they had to do things according to the leader's orders - the first and most inviolable principle of the Port Mafia's three major principles: "Absolutely obey the leader's orders", even if the order is to search outside and kill the leader himself.

Perhaps the leader was controlled by the enemy's special ability and issued such an order, or perhaps an enemy was pretending to be another leader... The speculations of the grassroots members were diverse, but no matter what the truth was, as long as the leader issued such an order, they had to obey it no matter what the reason was.

A ten-man team of the fighting organization "Black Lizard" belonging to the Port Mafia ran into the leader "Dazai Osamu" himself, who was wearing a black coat and a red scarf and looked tired, on a deserted street in Yokohama the day after receiving the order.

Due to the order issued by the leader himself, the ten leaders of the team ordered their subordinates to attack the leader without hesitation.

The final result was that although the young leader was injured due to being caught off guard, he still killed three members of the Black Lizards, jumped into the water himself, and successfully escaped their pursuit.

It's hard to say whether this result is good or bad, but it's enough to make the Black Lizard team members confused and fearful: even though the Port Mafia members know that the leader should be in the leader's office on the top floor of the Port Mafia headquarters building, the "Dazai Osamu" they are "hunting down" is exactly the same as the leader Dazai Osamu himself, and their behavior of hunting down the leader... should it be considered as obeying the leader's orders, or should it be considered as disobeying the leader's orders?

If the other party escapes successfully, it means they have failed in their mission. But if they succeed, will they be considered as betraying the leader of the Hong Kong underworld who intends to usurp the throne and kill him?

Although the members of the lower levels strictly followed the orders given by the leader, in this special situation, no one dared to bet on what would happen if they really killed "Dazai Osamu".

Even though another order was issued from the top of the headquarters building in the early morning of the next day, completely revoking the order to "hunt down Dazai Osamu" issued two days ago, and there were cadres who confirmed that the leader himself was still in the headquarters building, it could be almost concluded that the "Dazai Osamu" that the Black Lizard members had encountered before was a "fake leader", which temporarily stabilized the situation. However, when the leader himself did not leave the building and the other "Dazai Osamu" outside the Hong Kong Black was too similar to the leader himself, and even had the same supernatural powers, even if there was military suppression from above, it would still cause shock to the hearts of the lower-level members.

In this situation, a psychic who died from his own supernatural powers suddenly appeared on the territory of the Yokohama Port Mafia, and was inevitably neglected at the beginning.

It was not until a person with special abilities suddenly died that afternoon and a whole night had passed that someone finally discovered something was wrong after monitoring the sudden appearance of the white fog. They began to prepare to report it to the leader.

As luck would have it, the matter was reported directly to the leader himself.

——The young man with slightly curly black hair, a black coat and a long red scarf had a delicate appearance and looked to be around twenty years old. One of his eyes was wrapped in white gauze, leaving only the other bottomless iris-colored eye exposed. He exuded a cold and gloomy aura and had a tired look. He looked as if he was bored with everything around him. He looked exactly like the leader he had seen from a distance a few times before... Even if there were no senior cadres accompanying him, there would be no possibility of mistaking him.

The current leader of the Port Mafia, Dazai Osamu, is a man who is young but stern and ruthless. He is a man that you will never mistake for someone you have met before, no, even if you have never met him before.

After meeting the "leader" by chance, he naturally told the other party about this matter without hesitation.

The "leader" himself was present and immediately issued an order that most of the people with special abilities would no longer come into contact with the white mist. Special cadres would be dispatched to follow up on this matter later. The progress of the matter was no different from any previous attack by people with special abilities who dared to provoke the port's black power that the port Mafia had encountered.

In addition, after reporting the matter to the leader, some unnecessary and troublesome steps were omitted in the investigation.

…That’s how it should be.

However, the reason why an accident is called an "accident" is naturally because it happens suddenly and unexpectedly.

When the matter seemed to have come to a simple conclusion and the report was compiled, the matter was passed up layer by layer and finally reached the leader's office on the top floor of the Mafia headquarters building in the port, and was seen by Dazai Osamu himself in the office. A day had passed since the first white mist spread, and half a day had passed since the news was told to "Dazai Osamu" on the spot.

This is when the real Dazai Osamu learned the news.

——The "leader" that the members of Gang Black "accidentally met" outside before was not Dazai Osamu himself who had been sitting inside the Gang Black building, but another guy who was saved by Mochizuki Kaoru and came from another world and called himself "Dazai Osamu".

Dazai Osamu realized this in an instant.

Oops…

The young leader's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately stood up from the chair behind his desk.

Without thinking too much, after finding out that there was nothing unusual with Mochizuki Kaoru, Dazai Osamu hesitated for less than two seconds, then he skillfully found Mochizuki Kaoru's contact information and sent a message to her.

"Dazai Osamu: Mr. Mochizuki, can you please stay at home for the next few days?"
