After a long commotion, things finally got back on track. Before a new round of beatings was about to begin, the library staff rushed forward to stop "Nakahara Chuuya" and prevented the "tragedy" from happening.
Without the stimulation of "Dazai Osamu", "Nakahara Chuuya" quickly calmed down and sat down with another Nakahara Chuuya.
The two of them held the newly taken out cups in silence and drank water very quietly - after all, there was no alcohol in the library, so they could only use water, which made Zhongyuan Chuye very dissatisfied.
They can still get along harmoniously, even if they have nothing to talk about. But the two Dazai Osamu are already arguing, specifically mainly about the differences between the two worlds of Akutagawa Ryunosuke.
The red-haired Dazai Osamu slammed the table (?) after hearing the words "Akutagawa is my student", and was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who was inexplicably implicated, sat nearby and pretended not to hear anything. He just watched the two people trying to communicate properly at the beginning, but then Dazai Osamu started arguing loudly unilaterally.
"Damn it! Mr. Akutagawa from that world actually——!" He didn't say the rest of the sentence. The real person was still watching, and Dazai Osamu always felt that it was a bit embarrassing and rude to say it. But he still couldn't help but mutter in his heart, that guy actually got Mr. Akutagawa from another world to be his student... No matter how he thought about it, he was envious.
The acting curator walked out slowly, wagging his tail, taking along Shimazaki Toson, who wanted to ask something but didn't say it.
"Nakahara Chuuya" thought of something: "So, the timeline between you and me is completely different."
"I'm still wondering when the dwarf will realize this." "Dazai Osamu" stopped talking to Dazai Osamu. He pulled out a chair and sat on it uninterested. "Isn't this a very clear thing?"
"...Who would pay attention to such things for no reason?" "Nakahara Chuuya" complained, but his eyes were attracted by the book in his hand, "Also, where did you get the book in your hand?"
Dazai Osamu opened the first page and saw the four characters No Longer Human printed neatly on the cover: "I took it when I saw it. After all, this is a library, so it's not surprising to see books here."
He emphasized the word "library" a little more.
Ignoring his inexplicably strange tone, "Nakahara Chuuya" put down the cup and felt that he could now remain calm.
"Well, it's normal for a slug not to understand these things." "Dazai Osamu" did not forget to launch a new round of ridicule at "Nakahara Chuuya" while flipping through the book. He did not read fast, and he carefully read the page in front of him before turning the page. Even in this situation, he was in the mood to ridicule.
The cup in "Nakahara Chuuya's" hand cracked with a snap, and he held the cup tightly, as if he was going to rush over and beat him up in the next second.
"The Dazai Osamu in your story..." Nakahara Chuuya looked strange. He didn't expect that this guy would have such a personality. The two of them seemed completely opposite.
They were the only ones left in the room. Akutagawa Ryunosuke noticed that nothing would happen and got up to leave. Dazai Osamu hesitated for a while and finally followed him, calling out "Teacher Akutagawa". Dazai Osamu's eyes stayed on Akutagawa Ryunosuke's back for a long time.
The world is different, and people are indeed different.
Dazai Osamu closed the book "No Longer Human". He had only read half of it, and the emotion in his iris-colored eyes was icy. He stood up and put the book back to where he had taken it out, tapping the lines one by one with his fingertips. When he reached a certain line, his eyes lit up.
This time, the mission is just to find out who is the gangster here. "Dazai Osamu" thought as he took out the book. Now that he has seen one, the remaining Oda Sakunosuke and Sakaguchi Ango will not be far behind.
These two names always seem to pull at a nerve. He paused for a moment, because he had just seen a book written by Oda Sakunosuke and Sakaguchi Ango.
As far as he knew, the future of that world was mostly the same as the futures of other so-called wild worlds.
As an outsider, although he is just acting, he is the real person who has experienced everything during the card period. Naturally, he can know most of the relevant memories of the character he is playing.
However, this is a privilege reserved for high-level actors. Too much immersion in role-playing for too long will inevitably confuse people with their true identity, so this privilege was later granted.
For a case like 0829, it will take several attempts to unlock this permission. Another responsibility of the system is to detect the mental state and abilities of the player after the task is completed. However, for a player like 0829 who is on missions almost non-stop, the system can only complete the most important tests quickly and temporarily, and there are always some that cannot be done in time.
It's really troublesome...ah. He sighed in his heart, and the title was vague and did not mention it. The expression on the outside of "Dazai Osamu" was still extremely calm, without any flaws.
After such a long time, he would always doubt whether it was necessary for him to take on one task after another. If you do anything too much, you will start to feel numb. In such a situation, there is only one reason that can keep him going: stop.
"Nakahara Chuuya" hadn't seen anyone for a long time, so he decided to go look for him, just in case something happened to this guy. When he came, he saw "Dazai Osamu" holding another book and reading it with his eyes downcast. The book "No Longer Human" was neatly placed on the bookshelf.
With the vision of "Nakahara Chuuya", he can see the title and author of the book half exposed on the cover - "Rashomon", the author is Akutagawa Ryunosuke who left not long ago.
"So there are some similarities." Nakahara Chuuya from this world suddenly appeared beside him and said lazily, with the hat firmly on his head and his golden hair scattered, almost covering his ears.
The Nakahara Chuuya and Dazai Osamu in the two worlds have completely different looks and personalities. For example, the hair of "Nakahara Chuuya" is a little reddish orange, and his eyes are clear blue, but the Nakahara Chuuya here has nothing in common with them. Even though their names are the same, it is obvious at a glance that they are different people.
Although he has only seen these two now, and perhaps he will only see these two in the future, it does not prevent Nakahara Chuuya from thinking about what the other people in that world would be like.
But the thought of the completely reversed relationship between Akutagawa Ryunosuke and Dazai Osamu was enough to make his scalp tingle and it was hard to imagine.
Nakahara Chuuya turned his head, wondering why his height never seemed to change much no matter which world he was in. He was always taller than that peach blossom bastard, and he was unhappy because he had to look up to see people.
Then he said to his other-worldly self: "Do you want to go and see it too?"
"There is a lack of everything here, except books."
