Chapter 101 Thirteen Presidents

【“Hmm? A serial killer.” Dazai Osamu sank into the soft sofa, chatting with Oda Sakunosuke on his phone while casually answering his student’s questions. “Nothing, I just suddenly remembered that I seem to have seen this kind of thing before.”

Dazai Osamu had seen countless murderers both when he was an officer and when he was a boss. There must be something unusual about the murderer that he could remember and tell Akae Natsuki about.

Sure enough, Chijiang Nayue heard the teacher say: "The murder methods are super bizarre! There is the kind of directly peeling off the upper body of a living person, and then sewing a tie on him to pretend that it is clothes and then putting it back on him, and there is also the kind of soaking the dead person's head in corrosive liquid to melt it, and there are more..."

Even the well-informed Akae Nazuki showed a disgusted expression after hearing this and made a precise comment: "The Five Degenerations of the Celestial Beings, a disgusting and strange killing habit. Modern murder gangs have evolved to the point where they can be humanely destroyed on the spot..."

I feel like if we compare the degree of perversion of the criminals, Tokyo seems to have lost in a strange way... No, there's no point in comparing such things.

Dazai Osamu, who was lying prone, had his shoulders trembling, as if he was amused by these words. Seeing how hard he was trying to hold it in, Akajinazuki sensed that there was something fishy going on and couldn't help but ponder for a few seconds.

"Isn't it the five signs of decay of the gods? Dirty clothes, withered hair, sweaty armpits, smelly body, and displeasure with the master. Except for the last one, the other four all fit the four ways of death." The former police star suddenly fell silent. "But I don't remember. Is this a case that happened in Yokohama before?"

During the time that Akae Nazuki was in the Metropolitan Police Department, he basically picked out all the special cases that deserved to be written about and read them. He remembered that the case that Dazai Osamu mentioned was indeed not among them. Moreover, if such an extremely bizarre murder case had occurred, Akae Nazuki would not have not heard of it.

"That's right, it's the 'Five Deteriorations of the Celestial Beings'. That's the code name of that terrorist organization. If you must say, this is a case that will happen in the future. It's normal that you don't have any impression of it."

Dazai Osamu looked lazy and uninterested: "We will meet them anyway... I specially left this opponent for you to play with."

No matter how you look at it, it's you who are too lazy to deal with them, so you leave them to your disciples!

Akae Nazuki knew Dazai Osamu very well. Not only did he not expose the truth directly, he also seemed to accept the explanation reluctantly.

The existence of the "Five Signs of Decay of the Celestial Being" was enough for Akae Nayue to guess many of the teacher's hidden things. This former boss who faked his death and escaped from Hong Kong/Black society might have helped Yokohama deal with countless future disasters behind the scenes.

These days, it’s the turn of the Mafia to save the world…】

Now, after finishing her memories, Akae Natsuki can tell herself a year ago that Mr. Dazai did not help Yokohama solve the disaster. It was because Mr. Odasaku was in Yokohama at the time that he solved those things in advance.

Mr. Dazai, doesn't this mean you are completely ignoring the "Five Signs of Deterioration of the Deity"?

"It's not that serious. I just trust you more than the bad development I saw in my memory of that world." Dazai Osamu's voice came from the earphone. The man who lacked teacher ethics in some places was unashamed to his disciple. "Don't be angry, Xiaohong. I'm here to help, right?"

Chi Jiang Na Yue, who was walking between the buildings, curled her lips and did not give the teacher any face to expose the other party: "You clearly knew last night that I would fight with Fei Jia."

No wonder we had agreed to have a gathering at his house last night, but Dazai Osamu suddenly found an excuse to join the Oda family and act with them. It was probably because his teacher was worried that Fei Jia would take action against the Oda family in an unconventional way, so he stayed there to prevent any disaster.

Dazai Osamu laughed happily in the communication channel: "That's how you call him. It sounds like you guys had a good chat."

Apart from their mutual calculations and countermeasures, they should have had a good chat. But Akajina Yue was not planning to have a good relationship with the demon now, and she called him that on purpose to show her dislike for him.

He rarely acts on impulse, and the reason he carried out the second cleansing plan ahead of schedule was not only because he discovered that Fyodor was going to take action against Furuya Rei, but there were certainly other reasons.

Before this, among all the criminal organizations with special powers active in the public eye, the "Rat of the Dead House" was more widely known. Among them, their leader Fyodor D, the guy known as the devil, was an internationally wanted criminal who was "extremely vicious".

But even though the only ones openly confronting Chijiang Nayue were Fyodor and Gogol, he was well aware that it was not the "rat in the dead house" who took these actions, but the "Five Decays of the Celestial Being" who had not yet appeared in public.

If Fyodor and his men were to announce the existence of the "Five Signs of Decay" to the world, they would surely prepare to commit the crimes that Dazai Osamu had mentioned.

Why would they commit the crime in such a high-profile manner, letting everyone know that such a terrorist organization exists?

If we connect this with the reality, the answer is very simple for Akae Nazuki. They are trying to build momentum.

Once this bizarre and vicious serial murder case creates a big stir, they will shift the blame to the target, and the person being framed will instantly become a heinous terrorist.

By then, wouldn't Fukuchi Sakura, who has been hiding in the special forces unit of Hounds in the "Five Decays of Heaven", be able to become a righteous character in the righteous path under the pretext of "suppressing these ultimate terrorists"?

Even the most difficult part of the plan, the 'blame', was no longer a problem after confirming that they had indeed stolen the pages a year ago.

Universal Wishing Chance to fulfill their wishes.

The only thing that Akae Nayue couldn't think of at the moment was the purpose of Fukuchi Sakura's stupidity.

Since that person has already obtained the page of the book that can make his wish come true, why would he still use the incident of the Five Degenerations of the Celestial Being to build momentum for himself?

What exactly does Fukuchi Sakurachi want? Is there anything that the pages of a book cannot help him achieve?

"Next, Feijia will do whatever it takes to delay my cleansing of Tokyo." Akajinazuki said firmly, "As long as the second cleansing is completed, they won't be able to infiltrate Tokyo again. However, the military, police, and supernatural crime countermeasures departments, all of which are conducive to their actions, are in Tokyo."

In other words, if Fyodor and his team wanted to carry out the plan, they would have to lure Akajinazuki away from Tokyo or delay the purge as much as possible.

As for what they will do to delay time——isn’t the Five Signs of Degeneration serial murder case their best choice?

"That case..."

"Well, there are only two of us and Shu in the detective agency in Tokyo. There is no way they will let the case be handed over to us." Dazai Osamu yawned, "Then it's the Armed Detective Agency in Yokohama."

Yokohama is the city with the highest concentration of superpowers in Japan, and Japan's superpower secret service department also exists there. Therefore, Yokohama is the favorite stage for these foreign superpower criminal groups, and the "Five Decays of the Celestial Being" is no exception.

"..." Chi Jiang frowned, "Has a case already occurred?"

He originally wanted to use the cleansing plan to get rid of the rats and put an end to the serial murders, but Dazai Osamu's tone clearly showed that he had already begun to think about the follow-up of the case.

"Oh, didn't your public security friend tell you yet?" Dazai asked knowingly, "In fact, yesterday morning, the young congressman who was about to move from Tokyo to Yokohama died in his own home with dirty clothes."

"The clothes are dirty" means the skin on the upper body is peeled off.

Chi Jiang Na Yue stopped running. He took a few light steps and landed outside the door of his destination. He looked at the door and did not choose to pry the lock. Instead, he kicked it out.

The wooden door flew away under the deep red gravity factor and the terrifying power of the book-creating man, leaving sawdust and debris all over the ground.

Chijiang Nayue calmly withdrew her legs.

He could understand it. After all, the police would not come to him for every case. As an artificial intelligence, Gopher would not proactively report information that he did not ask for, let alone Furuya Rei.

However, the incident that he knew would happen eventually happened before he could take action, and the congressman who had a chance to survive still died in a tragic and perverted way.

In his Tokyo.

Ah, still very angry.

In the communication channel, Dazai Osamu was not surprised at all that Akae Nayue would react like this. He sighed inaudibly and his voice calmed down: "No matter how strong you are now, there will always be deaths that you cannot prevent, Xiaohong."

He knows.

"It's impossible for a human to perfectly save everyone. I don't think I've ever taught you this." The former leader of the Port Mafia said calmly, "You have to remember one thing. When you put yourself in the position of a protector, your life cannot be sacrificed."

Dazai Osamu has always known that Akae Nazuki has some perfectionist flaws. If there is a path where he can sacrifice himself to save many people, Akae Nazuki will take it without hesitation, because he will not allow the death of others behind his life, and he will save anyone he can.

If Akae Nazuki was still the policeman, or the small member of Yokohama, Dazai Osamu, who knew his disciple well, would not tell him these things. Dazai Osamu would just secretly make a plan as he did before, and naturally seize the opportunity of his disciple to sacrifice himself and run away.

But now, Akae Nazuki is the president of the Tokyo Armed Detective Agency. He positions himself as the guardian and backer of this city, and only him.

The larger the scope he wants to protect, the more innocent people like that young congressman will be caught up in the struggle and cannot be saved. If he still regards their deaths as his own responsibility as before, he will collapse.

Chi Jiang Na Yue walked towards the safe house abandoned by Fyodor, and used the gravity factor to destroy all the monitoring cameras he felt along the way, leaving only one monitoring camera in the computer room deep in the safe house.

"No, teacher. I will never make meaningless sacrifices." He reached out and picked up the diamond K on the black and white chessboard, speaking to both Dazai Osamu and Fyodor who was eavesdropping on him.

"Because I would save everyone even if I didn't have to sacrifice myself."

In the dim room, the fluorescent light from the computer illuminates the curve of the savior's mouth.

"So you must hide well, Feijia." Chijiang Nayue gently stroked the monitor, and crushed it as soon as she finished speaking, "Let me have more fun."

The Five Decays of Heavenly Beings represent that there will be a total of five dead people - then as for the remaining people, even if the god of death wants to take their lives, he will take them away from you.
