Killing an old enemy

Chapter 25

"Do you understand?"

Caesar explained some things to Lancelot, and the other party obediently nodded in agreement, and then the spirit disappeared from sight.

There's no need to tell Chuya about this kind of thing. Anyway, it's good that he didn't fight Lancelot and cause Yokohama to shake. It doesn't matter if the knight is by his side.

But when Caesar returned, Zhong Yuanzhong was no longer at home.

He noticed at a glance that there was a note on the package on the table - the leader has something to do with me, so he left first, and someone will pick you up at 7:00.

Caesar tore off the sticky note and turned it over to take a look at the back, and found that there was a string of phone numbers on the back, which was circled and wrote his name in the same handwriting. Looking at the package again, it was packaged very nicely, and he raised a feeling of anticipation. , pick it up.

This is the first time someone gave him a gift.

After thinking about it, Caesar chose to abandon the idea of ​​violent tearing, and carefully tore open the wrapping paper according to the edge for the first time, and immediately fell out of a pocket. He curiously opened the zipper, spread his hands, and poured out the heavy Something—it turned out to be a mobile phone.

It seems that Zhongyuanzhong is still aware that it is impossible to do without technological means in modern society.

Nishizawa fiddled with the phone for a while with great interest, and carefully read the user manual before turning on the phone, ready to enter the phone number of Chuya Zhongyuan.

But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he opened the address book, he found that there was an extra name in it.

"..." Zhong is really stupid, even if he buys a mobile phone, he will be cheated.

There is a reason for Nishizawa to think this way, because although it is a brand new mobile phone, Osamu Dazai's name has already appeared in the address book, as if it is not special enough, there are three love symbols on the note, and in his own Added an "a" before the name to make it easier to stick to the top.

As if he had eyes, Osamu Dazai sent him a text message shortly after the machine was switched on.

"..." Tsk.

Caesar opened it and glanced at the content, and then closed it immediately. He replied "Come here yourself", then cut out the text message interface, and flashed a call to Zhongyuan Zhongye according to the number on the note.

After a few rings, the phone was connected.

"Nishizawa?" It was Nakahara Chuya's voice. He sounded a little surprised, then lowered his voice and said in annoyance, "Oh...yes, I almost forgot, it's already past six o'clock, you go home now Yet."

Caesar "What are you up to?"

Nakahara also paused, and under Mori Ogai's meaningful gaze, he could only vaguely say, "...it's work."

"I want you to pick me up." Caesar was unhappy and emphasized, "Nothing is more important than me as a creditor."

Zhongyuanzhong was also quite at a loss, "My side..."

Caesar accused, "I have never left you behind! I have told you where to go, so Zhong is also a rascal, and has no spirit of contract at all."

Hearing this, Koyo Ozaki covered her lips and chuckled a few times.

Mori Ogai pointed out, "Chuya, Akutagawa's side is sorry for your trouble."

"..."

"I'll ask you again, are you sure?"

Therefore, Zhong Yuan Zhong also had no choice but to reply, "It won't happen next time, Akutagawa will pass by soon, you should pay attention to getting along well..."

The strange thing is that after he finished speaking, Caesar did not give a response. It really didn't seem like something the other party's uncompromising personality could do. Originally, Nakahara thought that Caesar would continue to get angry at him, but in reality he didn't No, but quiet and almost not like me.

With some kind of prediction, he took the phone away from his ear and looked, only to find that the other end of the phone had been hung up without hesitation.

actually angry...

Could it be that Nishizawa has already seen through the reason...?It's quite possible for him because he's not the type to get angry for no reason.

Nakahara also started to think wildly, but Mori Ogai and Ozaki Koyo were looking at him, so he couldn't express his emotions too much on his face.

This is because Mori Ogai called him over and said something, roughly meaning that they deliberately arranged for Akutagawa to become Nishizawa's subordinate, and then let Akutagawa undergo more training so that he could get rid of the influence of that bastard Dazai as soon as possible and become Hong Kong Hei's help, so I need his help.

Although it is not very clear what connection Nishizawa and Akutagawa's contact has with getting rid of Dazai, he still agreed to the boss' request after various considerations.

But if you think about it now...

Mori Ogai: "Chuya, let's continue talking about your body before the official welcome ceremony."

"Okay, boss." Zhongyuan Zhong had no choice but to suppress the strange emotion, and pondered, "Recently, Rage God..."

On the other side, although Caesar was the one who took the initiative to hang up the phone, he felt very unhappy. He even felt a vague anger welling up in his heart.

he!It was actually pushed to another person by the Reserve Master!

——Zhong is also a fool!

This displeasure continued until someone knocked on the door of Chuya's house, and he realized that he was actually angry for someone who was not the Master.

It's just too ugly, and it will definitely make him regret it.

Caesar put aside his anger, turned around and walked towards the door, and opened it, revealing the young man in black windbreaker that he saw in the corridor that day——

It was Ryunosuke Akutagawa who was taking a deep breath and showing restraint.

When he was ordered by the boss to pick up the cadre who took Mr. Dazai's position, Akutagawa was actually very dissatisfied in his heart, but he had no other choice. He would not approve of anyone who took Dazai's position, let alone the other party. It came directly from the air.

Akutagawa didn't listen to the rumors circulating in Hong Kong and black. He maintained a relationship with Nakahara Chuya and Mori Ogai by virtue of his face. He knew that these two were not such people. Nishizawa's superiority must be due to various reasons. Considered, but he simply couldn't shake off that prejudiced emotion.

It's just...unforgivable!

That's Mr. Dazai... Even if he doesn't bother with Akutagawa's insistence at all, after all, it was Dazai Osamu who discarded all these and defected from Hong Kong...

But Akutagawa couldn't ignore all of this.

"You are so pathetic." Nishizawa said blankly, looking at Akutagawa and said, "This will only make him look down on him even more."

Where did I hear that voice... When Akutagawa raised his head and looked at Nishizawa's familiar face, he showed a look of astonishment, and then anger surfaced on his face, he clenched his fists, "It's you... ...! You lied to me before!"

Nishizawa is not polite, "If you don't have the ability to distinguish lies, you can't blame others for your own incompetence."

Hearing this, Akutagawa's pupils shrank, "You!"

"Dazai Osamu has a new disciple, did you know that?"

Just as others commented on being so irrational, Akutagawa felt that the nerve in his brain was broken with a "bang", and sharp black lines suddenly appeared on his coat, and the supernatural power suddenly activated, moving towards Caesar's direction suddenly attacked away!

"To shut up--!"

Nishizawa didn't need to do anything at all, Rashomon's sudden attack was completely blocked by the air wall, and then disappeared out of thin air.

It was the hand of Lancelot who followed him secretly.

Akutagawa opened his eyes wide, "Yes..."

"It's not 'disqualification in the world'." Nishizawa said, his tone softened a lot, and he even pointed out his shortcomings a little depressed, "You should update your information database, can you stop thinking about Osamu Dazai all the time? Name? I'm really tired of hearing it, it's never going to be recognized like that."

Hearing this, Akutagawa said, "You don't understand at all..."

Unlike Nakahara, Akutagawa's thoughts are too simple and easy to understand, blindly immersed in darkness, and at the same time make people feel unabashedly sad.

His world is full of two words - become stronger, Dazai.

But becoming stronger is also for the second word. Only by becoming stronger can he be recognized by Dazai. Akutagawa is such a pitiful guy.

This does not mean that Akutagawa is a useless child.

Seeing Akutagawa's past from the perspective of Osamu Dazai made a hero like Nishizawa feel very uncomfortable. On the one hand, he felt that Osamu Dazai's actions were correct, and on the other hand, he felt that Akutagawa was cheated by Osamu Dazai, and that his personality was not complete. It's not about plugging in other people's opinions and leaving other people's marks.

"I don't want to understand either. I can't help it. I can see and hear it." Caesar frowned. "You really don't look like anyone I've met, so I'm interested."

For Akutagawa, he hates it, but he doesn't hate it. He is not so bad, because Mori Ogai wanted to introduce him to the Master Reserve, so he took advantage of the opportunity to anger the innocent people who were introduced.

Although interest is derogatory, it is no different from positive. In short, if Mori Ogai wanted him to be interested in Akutagawa, then he did.

His words successfully changed Akutagawa's face, "I can hear you..."

"If you really want to be recognized, I advise you to learn to be patient." Caesar said, "Do you want to know how to do it?"

Because he can see the past of Osamu Dazai, it is not difficult for Nishizawa. The most important thing to maintain the relationship between old enemies is recognition. It is not difficult for him to recognize, admire, and respect this relationship.

Although I said in my heart that it was impossible, it was impossible.

But Akutagawa was still shamefully shaken, something lit up those deep and pure black eyes.

Just like being easily deceived by Caesar last time, Caesar has a strange and involuntarily convincing temperament. When he said something, few people would have doubts in their minds, just Even people like Akutagawa are the same.

He couldn't control the hope that swept through his heart like a prairie fire.

As a result, Akutagawa didn't make a sound to refute, but just tightened his pale lips, showing a particularly stubborn expression.

Maybe... can it really be done?

Under Caesar's few words, he quickly became a tamed cat.

"Of course, first of all, you have to listen to me."

Akutagawa showed a humiliated expression "..."

"In your eyes, Osamu Dazai is the most worthy of your recognition in the world, right? So I am your relaxed standard, and you can't even get recognition from me. Do you think Dazai will take you seriously? Fool. "

Hearing this, Akutagawa didn't say a word, but silently accepted his reprimand and acquiesced to his statement.

Caesar turned around and walked away, "Come with me, you are driving the car, right? You will be driving later."

Akutagawa paused to keep up with the pace, and said in astonishment, "I clearly parked the car at..." and parked on the street outside the apartment.

—How did he know?

"As I said, I can hear your mental activity. Remember this, and I won't say it next time."

Anyway, this is what Osamu Dazai wants, so that Akutagawa can think independently instead of being a vassal of his product.

"after……?"

"Am I not your boss?"

"I haven't recognized you as replacing Mr. Dazai..."

Before he finished speaking, Nishizawa interrupted him, looking at the figure at the bottom of the stairs, "Osamu Dazai, you are here."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's body froze for an instant, he didn't dare to move at all, his breathing was light, with fear and longing at the same time.

Mr. Dazai...

Caesar turned his head and glanced at him, pouted.

"Didn't you call me here?"

Osamu Dazai pretended to be coquettish and closed his eyes, he didn't notice the people around Nishizawa at all, he just complained with his heart in his hands.

"Caesar is really cruel, just let me come over directly? If Caesar is willing to accept my proposal, or let me go by car, then I can barely forgive you, isn't it very understanding?"

Caesar frowned, "Open your eyes and look to my side."

Osamu Dazai said unconsciously, "What's so interesting about that Chuya guy..."

"Open it for me and see who it is." Caesar ordered.
