Osamu Dazai's emotions hidden under the mask of calmness are complex and extremely contradictory. He longed to see Oda again, but he was worried that it would hurt him.

Osamu Dazai didn't even dare to take another half step forward.

It's just that the presence of the ghost is silent. There was no sound of breathing, the sand could not show the ghost's tracks, and the wind could not carry any message from the ghost.

He couldn't judge the location of the ghost, let alone determine what would happen if he came into contact with the ghost.

Osamu Dazai could only hesitate in place and sharply questioned Tsurumi to get an accurate answer.

"Shujun, who are you talking to?" Osamu Dazai asked.

Tsurumi said that it was not good. The boy turned his face sideways in trepidation and looked at Mr. Oda's expression with his peripheral vision.

The red-haired man stared at Osamu Dazai in a daze, and he suddenly lowered his head and stared at his palms in distraction.

Tsuru's heart sank.

Is it finally impossible to hide? If you can't hide it, you can't hide it, Mr. Oda is already a ghost, and he can't turn into an evil spirit on the spot no matter what.

For a long time, there were only a few friends in Tsurumi. After joining the martial arts, the friends I made gradually increased. He values each of his friends and doesn't want any of them to be harmed.

"Shujun!" Osamu Dazai shouted, "I'm asking you, did you hear that?" Tsurumi nodded again and again: "I heard it, I heard it." Osamu Dazai: "Then answer my question." Tsurumi Shu Zhiwu: "I, I am ........."

How so? If you say that you are talking to yourself, how do you explain it to Mr. Oda? If you answer truthfully...... The results don't make any difference either! I'm so sad.

"Xiaoshu, Dazai can't see me, why?" Oda Sakunosuke suddenly spoke, "I think you should know why. Tsurumi was attracted by his words, and unconsciously turned his head to look at the red-haired man.

Oda Sakunosuke paused and said lightly: "This matter involves me, and I have the right to know the truth."

Osamu Dazai didn't have any clues to determine Odasaku's location.

But the black-haired boy's glance gave too many clues, the slightly raised chin, the direction of the pupils, the height of Oda Sakura four years ago and the height of Tsurumi Shu at this time, the angle of toe deflection....

In an instant, he determined where Sakunosuke Oda was standing.

"Shujun, you can't hide it from us." Osamu Dazai said slowly and unmistakably, "I

We have the right to know the truth – me

I think 'he' would say something like that. "

- Okay, okay, I can see that your relationship is really good, and you really know each other. Tsurumi sighed helplessly.

Even if you are separated from each other by an insurmountable boundary between life and death, and you can't hear each other's words, you can accurately guess what each other thinks.

"Okay, Mr. Dazai, I won't hide it anymore." Tsurumi asked, "Actually, you've already guessed it, right? Why are you still obsessed with letting me say the answer myself? "

Osamu Dazai didn't answer, the corners of his lips turned up, and he smiled without warmth.

Tsurumi said: "...

Woo, Mr. Dazai is worthy of being Mafia once, and it's really scary when he scares people with a cold face!

Tsurumi said, "Actually, you guessed right, Mr. Oda Sakunosuke is standing here."

The boy stretched out his arms and ran to Odasaku's side, enduring the chill of occasionally touching the skin of the undead, and gestured to Osamu Dazai, "Well, this is his position, and he is facing in this direction." That's his height...... Hmm, Mr. Oda, you're so tall I can't reach it...... Wow!'

Tsurumi was pinched by Sakunosuke Oda and lifted under his armpits — exactly the same pose as a superhero on TV reported a cat down from a tree.

Then he held the boy steady like a cub.

"Is that high enough?" Sakunosuke Oda asked gently.

"Enough!" Tsurumi Shu hurriedly stretched out his palm and pressed it on the top of the red-haired man's head, and said to Osamu Dazai, "It's almost that high." "

"Alright, Mr. Oda can let me down." Tsurumi whispered.

Sakunosuke Oda put him down with kindness.

Osamu Dazai thus got more accurate information, but it was useless, and he still couldn't see Sakunosuke Oda with his own eyes.

Even if you know that he is standing in front of you, you don't feel real. Like an ethereal dream, the day dawned, and when he woke up, his friend still slept on a cliff where he could see the clouds rolling up.

"How can I see him?" Osamu Dazai asked.

Sakunosuke Oda also asked, "How can I get Dazai to see me?" Tsurumi scratched his cheek: "This ...... No, it doesn't. Mr. Dazai, there is a wall between you, the living and the dead......"

"Sakura Oda!"

r />

Tsurumi's words were interrupted by the cries of a group of children, and he looked back to see five imps rushing towards the staircase, surrounding the red-haired man and blocking him.

Oda Sakunosuke frowned: "Didn't you go upstairs to sleep?"

"Odasaku, can you tell us a story?" Sakuraku opened his eyes wide, holding the man's leg and not letting go, with tears in his eyes: "I had a super terrible nightmare, can you go to the second floor to accompany us?"

The other children also nodded frequently, and said nervously and fearfully, "Oda Saku, don't pay attention to the strangers, they are all bad people, come home with us."

Tsurumi pointed at himself in disbelief: "Am I a bad person? Damn, little ghost, don't talk nonsense! Brother Tou said, I have always been the best boy!"

Shinji retorted: "Good boys don't travel at night, you came to Oda Sakura in the middle of the night three times and twice, how do you explain it?"

Tsurumi Narrative: "I ......"

He had an idea, crossed his waist and snorted coldly: "Then it's not that you haven't listened to Mr. Oda twice, I have a serious business looking for Mr. Oda. Besides, I'm an adult, and adults are allowed to go on a night tour without sleep in the middle of the night!"

Shinji choked up suddenly: "You ......"

The two sides were drawn, unwilling to take a step back and ignore each other.

Osamu Dazai, who was always watching from the sidelines, frowned, and the feeling of only being able to guess how things were going by just looking at Tsurumi narrated one person's reaction was too bad. It's not that it can't be done, but it's difficult, after all, there is so little information.

Osamu Dazai decisively stretched out his arms, grabbed the back collar of Tsurumi, and carried it to his side like a cat. The kitten didn't struggle, tilted his head, opened his round cat eyes, and asked in confusion, "Dazai-san, what are you going to do?"

The darkness could not take away the slightest glow of those bright golden eyes, and the gilded golden pupils were clear and clear.

But if Osamu Dazai were to describe it, he would only say that it was clear stupidity.

"You don't get in the way, just staring at me like that?" Osamu Dazai once again felt the headache of teaching the student, "If it weren't for my ability to weaken the attack from your eyes, I would have been lying down."

Seeing Shushu, Tsuru was shocked, quickly squinted his eyes, and said aggrievedly: "It's not what I thought, I'm so powerful, I can't help it."

…… It's quite reasonable.

Osamu Dazai: "Tsk

"Don't talk nonsense with you. Help me relay their conversations, including what they said to Oda Sakura and you, word for word. "

Tsuru sighed, obediently became a repeater, and his tone was still well learned. He repeated: "...... Sakura Oda, let's go. "

★

"Odasaku, let's go." The children pulled Oda Saku's clothes and arms with all their might, and dragged him down the stairwell.

Before Tsurumi Shu and Osamu Dazai could dissuade him, Sakunosuke Oda had already broken free from the children's pull. Use no more or no less force, not only to break the arm apart, but not to push the child down.

"Don't make a fuss."

It's rare for Sakunosuke Oda to be so serious in front of children. He has always been extremely tolerant of children who have experienced war and displacement, especially his five adopted children, and he has hardly ever been angry.

Even now, he doesn't make loud reprimands to children.

The red-haired man half-squatted down, he spoke without any tone, and he looked unfazed, but inexplicably gentle and gentle.

"The story will be told later, and if you are afraid of the dark, you will turn on the bedroom light. smile

Le, isn't there a doll I bought for you at the head of the bed? Hold it, stay with my brothers, and when I'm done talking, I'll go see you.

Those two are not strangers, Dazai has been to the store with me a few times before, and he has greeted you, remember? Oda Sakunosuke said lightly: As for Xiao Shu, he has also come to me a few times, and he is also my friend.

Osamu Dazai put his arm on Tsurumi's shoulder and said expressionlessly, "Wow, I've been to Oda Saku many times, huh?" Shu, Jun.

When the crane saw the cat's fried hair, he crackled and scolded, but he didn't change his anger: "What, I didn't know you before, and you can't tell this kind of thing casually......

Osamu Dazai nodded perfunctorily: "Mm-hmm, I see." Therefore, Shu Jun is at fault first, and he must tell me the truth without reservation later, so as to avoid the punishment of making mistakes.

You're right, I'm ......" Tsurumi Shu reacted in time: "What nonsense are you talking about, I'm not wrong at all!

Osamu Dazai sighed: "It's as easy to deceive as an oyster."

Tsurumi Shu had never learned swearing, so he could only scold dryly with tears in his eyes: "Damn bastard senior!"

On the other end, the children have been knitted one after another

Tian Sakunosuke coaxed it. Obviously he didn't cry anymore, but he clung to Oda Sakunosuke and didn't want to leave, which made him very distressed.

Why don't you let me talk to Dazai and Koshu? Oda Sakunosuke frowned and said helplessly. He raised his eyes and saw the fat boss standing behind the window through the glass, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Let the boss help him take care of the children temporarily.

Boss, could you come over for a moment? Sakunosuke Oda beckoned, and the fat boss walked out of the store - by going straight through the door panel.

Oda Sakunosuke was frightened, and his pupils shrank. He has "awakened" from the chaotic state, and he can obviously see these unscientific things.

Why can't even you ......? The red-haired man lost his mind for a moment, muttering to himself in confusion.

He thought to himself that the last time he saw the scene in the seamless was really true.

That day.

In order to prove that he is capable of entering and exiting the bowl street, Tsurumi Shu uses both mental control and speech spirits, and wants Oda Saku to turn around three times in a row.

In the future of the supernatural manifestation, he did turn. And it's straight and straight, ignoring the bar chair and the bar counter that is very close to it, and turning around three times in place like a game!

What was seamlessly revealed to him was the truest future, and it was precisely when Sakunosuke Oda knew this that he began to doubt his state.

Thinking that he couldn't get through to Dazai and Ango no matter what, and couldn't even walk out of this courtyard for half a step, he thought that he had unknowingly fallen into a strange ability.

That's why I wanted Tsurumi to contact Dazai around the corner and tell him that he was at home.

In Oda Sakunosuke's vision, even if he didn't go to Lupin for a while, Dazai and Ango didn't notice that something was wrong. In the case that he has not been at work for a long time and has always been unable to find anyone on his assignments, the port Mafia will definitely be recorded.

And there is always a day when friends notice something abnormal, as long as he spreads the news through the hand of Tsurumi, Dazai and Ango will definitely bring someone to the door to rescue him.

It's an unspeakable trust in your friends.

It's just that I didn't expect that even Osamu Dazai couldn't see him.

When Oda Sakunosuke hadn't fully figured out this, he saw that the fat boss was just like him, able to "wear molds" out of thin air.

Sakunosuke Oda looked at his five children, who were already half-crouched on the ground, and when he looked down, he could clearly see that their shoes were some distance away from the concrete floor of the yard—very subtle, but they were there.

There is an invisible film that separates the child

The contact between the children and the ground.

He turned his head to look at the fat boss, and so did the fat boss.

Oda Sakunosuke blessed the soul, and looked down at his feet, he was also imperceptibly "floating" in the air.

Sakura trembled and didn't stand still. Before Oda Sakunosuke could help him, he saw Sakiraku's feet "piercing" from a large gravel on the ground, staggering a few steps and floating "steadily."

Oda Sakunosuke was stunned and withdrew the hand that wanted to hold her, and said blankly: ...... What the hell is going on.

The fat boss sighed: "I already knew that there would be today." Kids, it's time for you to come to terms with reality. ”

The children gritted their teeth and let go of the red-haired man, his eyes slightly red, and stood side by side holding hands. They looked at each other a few times, and their eyes were full of unwillingness, and they didn't say a word.

The fat boss said gently: Oda, you should have found out. We—including you—are dead.

Oda Sakunosuke was stunned and said, "All dead?"

Kosuke, the eldest of the children, opened his mouth and shouted, "No, boss, don't talk nonsense!"

Be. The fat boss turned a blind eye to Kosuke's gaze, and said calmly: "We have been dead for a long time, and it is easy to blur the concept of time when we live here, it seems like a week or a month, but in fact, a year and a half have passed."

"You might as well ask Mr. Dazai about the exact time. The boss said that they were living people, living outside the barrier, and they would not say the wrong time.

Oda Sakunosuke turned his head to verify, and his voice gradually became urgent: Really, Koshu, Dazai?

Osamu Dazai was silent for a moment. No matter how long it has been, Odasaku's death is something he will never be able to accept and face calmly.

However, after seeing it, he no longer helped to hide the affairs of the undead. Paper can't hold the fire, and it's just futile to hide it.

Tsurumi said calmly: Mr. Oda, what the boss said is true. It's been since the day you died...... Well......

Osamu Dazai said in a dumb voice: Four years.

Tsurumi hurriedly answered: Yes, it's four years.

The red-haired man hung his head and stared blankly at his palms, his mind muddy. Four years ......" Sakunosuke Oda unconsciously knelt on the ground and muttered, "It's been four years.

No!

Kosuke was the first to speak: Oda Saku, don't listen to their nonsense. The children picked it up one after the other.

Shinji: You didn't die, and neither do we.

Yuu: "Aren't we alive and well now?"

Katsumi: Odasaku, get them out and don't talk to them anymore!

The only girl let go of her brothers' hands and stepped forward step by step, tiptoeing around the red-haired man's neck, her eyes red. She had tears in her eyes: Oda Saku, isn't it good to live with us all the time?

Sakiraku's voice still has the milk of a young child in her voice, probably because she cried once in the attic, her voice is a little hoarse, and she is crying again at the moment.

The young girl looked up at her and her brothers' adoptive father, her watery eyes full of pleading and reject.

Every day you can sit at a small table in the attic and think about it, and when you look back, you can see us playing on the carpet. The curry rice cooked by the owner was delicious and I had a great time eating it every day. No Mafia, no war, no pain.

Sakuraku and the four boys behind her begged at Sakunosuke Oda, and said softly, "Sakuraku, forget those painful things, okay?"

Stay.

We will be together forever.
