Bang bang bang——
The bullet hit the snake-like branch and made a muffled sound.
Because the speed of pistols is limited, they are getting closer and closer to us.
I raised my head and glanced at Dazai briefly, and found that he still looked calm, his eyes were cold, and he fired the gun calmly.
I turned my head and just wanted to observe the form in front of me, but suddenly I felt a pain in my ankle. After the darkness, when I came to my senses again, I was already lying on my back on the ground, forced to slide on the ground with a rustle.
"Hey, Si Yejun~"
Dazai rushed forward with a single step, and then I heard a few gunshots, and the branches relaxed with pain, and I was freed.
However, Dazai went deep into the "den of thieves" with me because of this.
"Tsk." He smacked his mouth in dissatisfaction.
Click——
Hearing a crisp sound, Dazai removed the safety pin on the grenade, a black shadow flashed past, and the grenade was thrown out.
Afterwards, I felt as if my five senses had been deprived of me.
After a few minutes of slowing down, when the smoke dissipated, we found a dark wasteland in front of us.
Seeing this, my right eyelid couldn't stop beating.
Brother, how many weapons have you brought? Can you please take them out together? !
"Finally it was settled peacefully, Si Ye-kun~" Dazai crossed his fingers and smiled kindly at me.
"Yes, yes..." My right eyelid was still twitching.
"But there will definitely be another wave. We still have to go back and report the situation as soon as possible~"
"Yes, yes..." I responded numbly, the hand holding the gun already cold.
But Dazai just laughed.
"Go back to the club," he said.
…
"How about it?"
Yosano wiped the kitchen knife, and a few pieces of broken hair sneaked out to cover the corners of her eyes, but it could not hide the ecstasy in her heart.
"Unfortunately, that's not a superpower," Dazai replied, "Thanks to my prompt reaction, otherwise Si Ye-kun wouldn't have been able to come back~"
I secretly wrapped my ankle with gauze. After hearing the sound, I raised my head and glared at Dazai angrily: You still know!
But wait... he just said, isn't that all superpowers?
"It's not a supernatural power. Why?" Tanizaki asked, while constantly trying to push away his sister Naomi who was clinging to him.
"During the battle, a branch got wrapped around my wrist..." Dazai replied.
"Why didn't Mr. Dazai's superpower fail?" Atsushi walked up to me and handed over a bottle of medicine designed to treat bruises.
"Please, if there really is a power that can invalidate invalid powers, this wouldn't be a bug here." I knocked my pocket watch impatiently.
I don't know if it's because of losing my powers, but I feel a little irritable.
"That's too bad...Brother, in this case, why don't we do this tonight, and then do that again~" Naomi jumped on Tanizaki, and inserted her slender white fingers into his clothes. Tanizaki's face turned red with embarrassment.
"Stop messing around!" Kunikida yelled.
Everyone who was already familiar with this scene silently returned their gaze to Edogawa and Dazai.
"Actually, there seems to be something in the warehouse next to the port." Dazai broke the silence with a smile.
"What?" I asked, feeling annoyed that I had only considered the hemp-like branches at first, but I didn't bother to survey the surrounding environment.
"Maybe it's a 'heart' or something like that, I don't know for sure." Dazai seemed to be holding something in his hand. I turned my head and looked over and found that it was my pocket watch. He had stolen it at some point.
When he realized that I had discovered it, the corner of his mouth became slightly rippled, and he threw the pocket watch to me again.
"So," Dazai clapped his hands loudly, "has anyone signed up to join the 'Save the Superpower Team'~"
"Hey, you guy, don't come up with these weird names casually!" Kunikida scolded with a stern face.
"So, do you want to participate? Do you want to participate?" Dazai posted shamelessly.
"Go? Of course you go!" Kunikida raised his foot and kicked Dazai against the wall.
"I'll go too." I raised my hand.
"Are you injured?" Atsushi whispered concernedly in my ear.
"It's okay." I shook my head.
Just a little scratch is better than having to be torn into pieces by Dr. Yosano.
"Then I'll go too." Atsushi raised his hand.
"Me too." Jinghua clutched her phone, her eyes firm.
She walked to Atsushi's side, pursed her lips, and could not question it.
"I happen to have nothing to do recently, so I'll go too." Yosano waved his machete, and with a flash of silver light, the knife was carried on his shoulder.
"Wuhu," Dazai covered his nose and stood in the middle of everyone, "The people currently participating in the team are: Osamu Dazai, Miha Watanabe, Atsushi Nakajima, Kyoka Izumi, Doppo Kunikida, and Akiko Yosano~"
"This guy is acting serious." I heard Kunikida complain in a low voice.
"Who is the captain?" I crossed my legs and asked.
"Of course it's me, Si Ye-kun~" Dazai clasped his hands together and smiled brightly.
"No, it's not good..." Dun and I looked at each other. After Dun received my signal, he protested in a low voice.
"Ah, Adun, why are you like this!" Dazai covered his chest as if he was wounded.
"Ahem, by the way, when are we going to leave?" I coughed, interrupting Kunikida who was about to explode.
"Tomorrow, how about~" Dazai's eyes glanced at my ankle intentionally.
"Okay." Kunikida nodded, leaned over and continued typing on the keyboard.
Workaholic...
I complained in my heart.
After sitting on the ground for a while, he watched Yosano turn around and leave before he dared to get up and start limping home.
"Where to go?" Dazai asked muffledly as he lay on the sofa.
"Go home." I replied, and after finding no sound for a long time, I assumed that I was leaving.
With a "squeak", I left the detective agency.
It's night.
On a clear night, the stars twinkled, and the dim moon seemed so high and far away. One after another, the shops on the street play current pop songs or self-recorded shouts to attract customers. But if they are mixed together, you can't tell who it belongs to, and it can only make people irritated.
Real fireworks are often only found at street stalls. A freshly sold cake or a freshly squeezed drink can satisfy your taste buds today.
And I chose the latter: a glass of watermelon juice.
I wandered on the street, looking at the peaceful scene in front of me, as if nothing happened during the day.
Are they too ignorant, or are we too serious?
My feet hurt and I frowned. Normally this small injury is nothing to me, but now I can only let it be like this.
This feeling of powerlessness is so sad.
Just like before I came, the morning when I failed the exam, the noon when I learned that my parents were divorced, and the night when I learned that I was alone.
So lonely.
But has everything changed since arriving?
It’s strange, I seem to have asked myself this question.
Maybe there have been changes, everyone has accepted me, and I have a new family.
Everything will turn around.
"Ah, Si Ye!"
I looked up in the confused light.
"It's Kenji."
