Another World Bookstore in Yokohama

Chapter 39

Five o'clock in the afternoon, Armed Detective Agency.

Osamu Dazai buried his head on the desk, using writing to get rid of the constant anxiety in his heart.

And because it was written casually, without being too serious, the handwriting looks quite scribbled.

It was a short story, a story about a friend.

There are three people, they got together with contradictory but similar hearts, and then parted ways because of a wrong thing, but in the end, the three finally put aside their previous suspicions and reunited.

In the dream of one of the dead.

Although it is said to be a short story, in fact, most of the entire article is written about the psychological portrayal of the main perspective characters. It is not so much a story, but more like a diary.

The literary talent is not very good either, it is basically a story spliced ​​together by some closely connected logic.It looks tight, but in fact it is messy and unorganized.

But the stories written are also interesting, can attract people to read on, and sometimes can make people cry.

"Alas~" Osamu Dazai sighed, and wrote down the last frame of the manuscript paper under his hand.

Obviously, I can say so many good sentences directly at ordinary times, but when it comes to writing, my mind is always blank, and I can't write any good sentences that connect with my heart.

This is the so-called, high-mindedness?Well, it was used wrongly, and that's not what it meant.

It should be that there is a specialization in the art industry, and it is superficial to use it on paper.perhaps?

No matter what, just writing blindly is rarely effective, and you have to read more books.Also, speaking of it, it seems that several members of the group are also writing?

Oh, Oda Saku is also writing, alas - why haven't they arrived yet.

Osamu Dazai looked up at the clock hanging on the wall.

Well, it's only 05:30.Ango will get off work very late.

"dong dong dong"

Someone knocking on the door?

Osamu Dazai looked up indifferently.

Anyway, it was the entrustment of those few visits.

With this in mind, Osamu Dazai continued to immerse himself in writing.

"I'll open the door!" Naomi Tanizaki who just finished holding the book hurried forward to open the door.

Two men walked in the door.

"You are--"

"The one who came to find Dazai, is he still working?" one of the men with round glasses asked after explaining.

"No, it seems to be writing something now, and we haven't shown it to us. It's rare to see him look so shy." While talking, Yosano Akiko couldn't help laughing.

The detective agency suddenly burst into laughter.

After hearing Ango Sakaguchi's voice, Osamu Dazai sat up straight in a daze.

With a blank expression, he looked at the red-haired man who appeared in front of him and waved at him, calling his name with a smile on his eyes.

"Yo, Dazai, long time no see."

"Long time no see, Odasaku."

"How about it, are you surprised?" Ango Sakaguchi walked to Osamu Dazai's table, put one hand on the table, and said with a smile, "This is still Oda Saku's suggestion, where he prepares children's birthdays in this way." surprise."

Oda Sakunosuke scratched his head in embarrassment: "Although most of them will be seen through, everyone will be very happy."

The person who was cited also showed a smiling face, Dazai Osamu stood up with a grin, lightly punched Odasaku on the shoulder with his hand, raised his head and said with some willfulness: "You can also trick me this time."

"By the way, Odasaku, do you know everyone?" Osamu Dazai pointed to the other members of the detective agency.

Oda Sakunosuke shook his head honestly, he only heard him briefly describe the people here in Dazai Osamu's letter.

"Then the next step is the introduction—"

***

Walking on the street, Osamu Dazai was bouncing ahead with his pockets in his pockets. Ango Sakaguchi and Sakunosuke Oda looked at Osamu Dazai with a smile and followed closely behind him.

"Where is this going?" Odasaku followed in bewilderment, he didn't remember any familiar places they passed by this road.

Ango Sakaguchi thought of something, and explained: "It's a newly opened bookstore, and the books sold in it are very interesting."

"Also, the letter to Odasaku was also obtained from this bookstore."

"That's it." Oda Sakunosuke was a little surprised.

At some point, Dazai Osamu walked side by side with them, and said with a smile, "There are books selling Oda work~"

"my book?"

"Well, there are also my books and Ango's books~"

"You wrote it too!" Oda Saku said happily.

Ango Sakaguchi covered his face, feeling suffocated by Osamu Dazai's distorted facts, "It's just that those books are signed by our names."

Osamu Dazai laughed and joked.

...

Soon there, the three stood at the door of a tall building.

Oda Sakunosuke hesitated, "This is, a bookstore?"

Isn't it really a museum or an office building? ? ?

————So big.....

The other two didn't pay much attention because they were used to seeing each other within a week, so they nodded and dragged Odasaku into the bookstore.

And as soon as he entered the bookstore, the interior, which was more grand than the exterior, unfolded the tip of the iceberg before Odasaku's eyes.

Bright but not glaring light, numerous but spacious and tidy book areas, small and beautiful ornaments and luxurious objects decorated along the corridors, and a small reception desk on the left after entering the door.

The front desk is a common structure surrounded by one side, and the direction close to the inside of the bookstore is the exit, and the material is good sycamore wood.The texture is beautiful and beautiful, and it seems to have a faint atmosphere of comfort.

The high bar has a small recess that appears to be for banknotes and coins, and next to it is a concave area the size of a book.Then there is a credit card machine in the corner.

It's pretty high-tech...

"Where is the boss?" Odasaku looked around and asked.

Osamu Dazai and Ango Sakaguchi were also surprised, they had never seen the boss leave the bookstore during working hours.

At this moment, a blond man came out, "The boss is out with a friend."

He explained.

Ango Sakaguchi: ........Shouldn't I make an excuse first?

and also--

"You are!"

Sakaguchi Ango's eyes widened, staring blankly at the man in front of him.

"Hmph~" Ayatsuji pedestrian snorted and looked at Ango Sakaguchi: "Long time no see, Ango Sakaguchi."

Ango Sakaguchi: "..." They hadn't seen each other for several years, why does this person still remember his name!

Osamu Dazai looked over in surprise, "You guys actually know each other?"

"Ah--you actually have a new good friend behind our backs~ It's too damned, Ango~~"

"I'm not a friend, so don't put on an air, Dazai." Before Ango Sakaguchi could refute, Ayatsuji pedestrians interrupted Dazai directly, "And if you want to read and buy books, go in as soon as possible. I don't think you guys want to be too Wasting time?"

"Because of the Oda Tsukuru in the middle, you all call him that, right?" Ayatsuji pedestrian raised the corners of his mouth happily, watching the faces of the people opposite him suddenly calm down, the corners of his lips deepened.

It's such a delicate friendship~

Although they are riddled with holes, they are still secretly protecting each other.

It's a sigh.

...

After the man left, Oda Sakunosuke felt strangely that something was wrong with the atmosphere, "You can always call me over from now on, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing~" Osamu Dazai smiled, "I bought a lot of those pills, enough for Odasaku to stay here for a lifetime~~"

Ango Sakaguchi, who was about to enter the book area, paused, and looked at Osamu Dazai speechlessly: "That's Mr. Mori's card—"

Every time he thought of this, Ango Sakaguchi would spontaneously light a candle for Mori Ogai in his heart. After all, Osamu Dazai passed away more than 100 billion.

I don't know why Mr. Sen hasn't come to the door yet.

"Then don't worry," Oda said, and he replied the second half of Dazai Osamu's sentence, "Next, let's go read a book?"

"it is good--"

......

In the end, Sakunosuke Oda brought over half of Gide's "The Narrow Gate" and a copy of "The Good Wife" with his own name on it. Speaking of which, he hadn't written this one over there.

One of the reasons is also that he is not married yet....

***

After going out, the three of them walked around together again, went to a ramen shop and had a bowl of seafood ramen for dinner.

...

"Next?"

The three looked at each other and instantly understood what the other wanted to express.

"I heard that the manager of that bar is still the same one. I don't know if he will be shocked when he sees us." Dazai Osamu said with a smirk.

Ango Sakaguchi complained speechlessly: "Put your bad tastes away, Dazai."

"No matter what, let's go there and talk." Oda Sakunosuke said.

The atmosphere suddenly quieted down.

I don't know what it was associated with, but Oda Sakunosuke's original intention was just to reminisce with them for a while.

"That's right." After a long time, Osamu Dazai said, "It's time for us to have a good chat."

He looked at Ango Sakaguchi with sharp eyes: "Right, Ango?"

"..." The man who was asked bowed his head speechlessly.

"Dazai," Oda Sakunosuke said flatly, blocking the harsh words that Osamu Dazai was about to say.

The man tilted his head to look at Osamu Dazai, his eyes were gentle, "Don't always use this as an excuse to get what you want from Ango."

"You can't get it, do it."

Oda Sakunosuke sighed, looking at Dazai's eyes seemed to look far away through the person in front of him.

"People are hurting each other all the time."

Maybe it's because of his weak soul, or because of his career, Odasaku's current thoughts are sometimes intermittent.

"Everyone has their own difficulties, although Ango did do something wrong because he didn't grasp the strength well."

Dazai Osamu was a little dazed, he looked at the man next to him in confusion, "Oda Tsukuru, have you become..." Holy Father?

"No," Sakunosuke Oda shook his head, "I just thought of someone, well, now I think of someone else." The man smiled wryly.

Gide, and himself.

"You don't know the life I lead there,"

Oda Saku paused, and the two people next to him suddenly became nervous and looked over worriedly.

"I'm so happy, it makes me think about things all the time, and I'm very scared." The man sighed.

The transformation at the beginning was really not worth mentioning, or so it was to him.

Especially when he saw Gide's situation, he felt extremely guilty.

After all, who is not a man of great sin?

Of all the wild dogs here, here and there, whether in the light, in the twilight, or in the dark, who has not had blood or evidence of crime on his hands?

We are all sinners, and we are all people who desire and can be redeemed.

...

Both are people who are deeply in the mud, why bother to force each other, torture each other's soul and each other's soul.

——Obviously we can embrace and cry together, hand in hand towards happiness.

All the unspeakable things are also due to inner struggle and unacceptable because of inherent views, as well as the present that is accustomed to some things, or human nature.

It is common to keep hurting your dear ones.

"Pa--ta" pushed open the old bar door, and the three of them walked to their usual seats.

No one knew what the three men said that day, but later they often came together in twos and threes to chat and laugh happily, and they didn't deliberately create an atmosphere like this day.

Even Dazai's usually sunny but somewhat gloomy face faded a little.

In a real sense, it became cheerful.

……

"Why?" Tanizaki Naomi asked.

Edogawa Ranpo guessed: "Probably because it was said to be open."

The author has something to say: the lupin talk also has nothing to say, so I won't write it.

To be honest, it's because I'm lazy (cover face)

There is also the matter of Dazai Wen. Although the little wild dogs I set up here are all talented parties, they also need a certain amount of writing and writing practice.

So from now on, you can treat the Chinese characters as if the literary giants didn’t have a high level in the early stage (where do I have a face)
