After hearing Draco's thoughts, everyone couldn't sit still.

Chapter 189 Akutagawa and Atsushi

"Nice to meet you. I'm Akutagawa. Ahem." The man was wearing a black windbreaker, had medium-length black hair that gradually turned white at the ends, some light eyebrows, and delicate eyes that were full of frost.

Like a lop-eared rabbit... An inappropriate thought flashed through Nakajima Atsushi's mind.

Nakajima Atsushi's gaze was too obvious, and for some reason Akutagawa Ryunosuke always felt offended.

"Renhu, what's that look in your eyes? Do you want to die?" Akutagawa Ryunosuke frowned and his tone gradually became dangerous.

Ah. I'm actually getting used to this name, Nakajima Atsushi thought.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa looked at Nakajima Atsushi, who was obviously distracted, and the displeasure on his face became even more obvious.

"You actually disrespected Lord Akutagawa, you damn tiger!" Higuchi Ichiyo saw that Nakajima Atsushi didn't take Akutagawa Ryunosuke seriously, and the fanatical fan suddenly got angry and pulled out a gun to shoot Nakajima Atsushi.

"Higuchi." Akutagawa Ryunosuke's cold voice made Higuchi Ichiyo regain his composure. "Capture the tiger alive."

"Yes! I'm so sorry, Lord Akutagawa!" Higuchi Ichiyo lowered her head guiltily. It was all her fault for not being calm enough. She almost ruined Lord Akutagawa's plan!

Nakajima Atsushi came back to his senses and felt a little helpless. Well... when he was watching anime, he didn't like Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who was a little hard to listen to, and he didn't understand why Mr. Dazai asked them to partner up.

Later, I learned about Ryunosuke Akutagawa's experience and had a deeper understanding of him.

He didn't know what he was feeling, but he wondered, if they could be more harmonious at the beginning, would he and Akutagawa get along better?

Nakajima Atsushi obviously forgot that, first of all, with the existence of Dazai Osamu, the two of them would definitely not be able to get along peacefully. Secondly, although he knew about the Three-Month Plan, Akutagawa Ryunosuke did not know the relationship between the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia.

In the eyes of Ryunosuke Akutagawa, the Armed Detective Agency is just a small workshop where second-rate psychics gather. It is only different because of the existence of Dazai Osamu.

"Are you here for the bounty?" Thinking of this, Nakajima Atsushi bravely went up. He naively tried to negotiate with Akutagawa Ryunosuke. "There's no need. This bounty will disappear soon."

He was so sure because he had a foresight of what would happen next.

He was telling the truth, but to Ryunosuke Akutagawa, it sounded as if Nakajima Atsushi was arrogant and thought that no one could catch him, and he also had to deal with the person who issued the bounty.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke gave a malicious smile. "Really? If you're so confident, why not give it a try?" What the hell was that man-tiger doing? Was there phlegm stuck in his throat?

Rashomon flew past Nakajima Atsushi's ear, leaving a deep mark on the ground.

Nakajima Atsushi's smile froze. Did he say something wrong? Why did they want to fight?

He was clearly trying to negotiate by imitating Mr. Dazai's style. Was he not being mysterious enough? He even lowered his voice!

Dazai: You learned it very well. Don’t learn it next time.

Listening to the voice coming from the bug, Dazai was speechless. Was Atsushi...trying to negotiate? Who taught him to negotiate like that?

"Wait, wait a minute, I think we have some misunderstanding?" Nakajima Atsushi fled from the range of Rashomon's attack in a panic and tried to negotiate.

"There is no misunderstanding. I will bring you back to the leader." Akutagawa Ryunosuke did not kill him. After all, the leader's order was to capture him alive.

Nakajima Atsushi was so upset that he wanted to cry. Why was it different from what he had imagined?

Compared with Nakajima Atsushi's embarrassment, Tanizaki Junichiro, Draco and Higuchi Ichiyo, who were inexplicably ignored in the corner, looked at each other in bewilderment.

Higuchi Ichiyo quickly pointed the gun at them, his face showing vigilance and murderous intent.

"I don't think we need to be so hostile, right? Miss Higuchi." Draco looked at Higuchi Ichiha with an innocent expression.

Higuchi Ichiyo's intuition has been warning her that this boy, although he looks harmless, is very dangerous!

Draco tilted his head innocently. With his ability, he could even hide it from Grindelwald, so that Higuchi Ichiyo would not notice anything unusual.

He just didn't want to attract the attention of the two people over there because of the noise, so he just relaxed his aura a little.

He wanted to see how Nakajima Atsushi would handle this completely different plot.

Five minutes later, Higuchi Ichiyo was sitting on a picnic mat that came from nowhere with Draco and the others, eating cookies that came from nowhere.

Her body suddenly tensed up, and she felt uncomfortable whether to swallow the cookie or not.

She glanced at Draco fearfully. How terrifying! Before she knew it, she'd been following this boy's lead. Could he be a psychic?

However, this boy wasn't mentioned in the intelligence. Could he be the Armed Detective Agency's secret weapon? No, no, the Port Mafia's intelligence team wouldn't be so weak.

Although she didn't know where he came from, he didn't seem to have any intention of interfering, so she would just leave it that way for now. If they wanted to harm Lord Akutagawa, she would let them know how powerful she was even at the cost of her life!

Higuchi Ichiyo was secretly on guard, ready to strike at any moment. One hand was secretly hitting behind his back, sending a message to the port mafia.

Draco gave Higuchi Ichiyo a meaningful look. Thinking of the person most likely to come over later and the person who was eavesdropping, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

There's a good show to watch~

"Is Atsushi okay?" Tanizaki Junichiro looked at Nakajima Atsushi, who had been dodging and not fighting back, with some concern. It was obvious that Atsushi's physical strength was almost exhausted, and his body was covered with wounds.

"Don't worry, it won't go on like this forever." Draco said firmly.

Nakajima Atsushi was indeed running out of strength. Although he knew that his supernatural power, Moon Tiger, was very powerful, he could not control it at all.

He was a little frustrated and found his behavior to be stupid: after watching some plots, he was confident that he could negotiate with Ryunosuke Akutagawa with his own abilities, but in fact his behavior was no different from that of a clown.

Isn't this, nothing has changed?

Nakajima Atsushi lowered his head, his expression unclear. Why... if only he were a little stronger...

Reluctance, self-reflection, regret...his aura slowly changed.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa was originally teasing Nakajima Atsushi casually, but when he felt bored and wanted to end it quickly, Nakajima Atsushi stopped moving.

"What? Are you planning to admit defeat?" Akutagawa Ryunosuke put on a sarcastic smile, which, combined with his black clothes and the evil smile in the dark, made him look just like a villain.

It's not that he didn't notice the changes in Nakajima Atsushi, but so what? He didn't take Nakajima Atsushi seriously.

"No... I won't give up!" Nakajima Atsushi raised his head, his eyes, which had turned into vertical pupils, were full of determination.

His limbs gradually became like those of a tiger, and the timid feeling that he gave people at first glance disappeared completely, leaving only the wild danger.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's pupils constricted, and a mad smile stretched across his lips. That was more like it. Let him see what was so special about this 70 billion-dollar human-tiger?

Nakajima Atsushi finally gave up on defense and took the initiative to attack Akutagawa.

He was very fast and reached Ryunosuke Akutagawa in almost the blink of an eye.

"Lord Akutagawa!" Higuchi Ichiyo suddenly stood up and wanted to help Akutagawa Ryunosuke.

"Ding—" The tiger claws only hit the ground, and Akutagawa Ryunosuke had already dodged behind Nakajima Atsushi. "Don't get in my way."

His tone was cold and a little impatient, and Higuchi Ichiyo knew he was talking to himself.

She lowered her eyes in disappointment, frozen in place.

Draco pushed her down into her seat. "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

He sensed a strange aura, somewhat similar to the world consciousness of Bungo Stray Dogs, but much weaker.

Inevitably, the two of them were injured during the fight.

Although Nakajima Atsushi had no combat experience, his body had strong recovery ability and he managed to fight back and forth with Akutagawa Ryunosuke.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa's attacks were all fatal, but his body ultimately held him back, and he would occasionally pause unnaturally.

The two of them were getting a little excited, and Nakajima Atsushi's movements gradually became more proficient, which made Akutagawa Ryunosuke feel a little surprised and subtly admired. Although this admiration would soon disappear with the arrival of someone.

Nakajima Atsushi's eyes also turned red with anger, and the two of them attacked each other's vital points at the same time.

"Hey, hey, it's okay." No one saw when Dazai Osamu came. He appeared between Akutagawa Ryunosuke and Nakajima Atsushi. No Longer Human was activated and both of them stopped attacking.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke pursed his lips, which were already bloodless, with a complicated look in his eyes. He glanced at Dazai Osamu in a casual manner.

Nakajima Atsushi was a bit exhausted, his attention was on Akutagawa Ryunosuke, and for the first time his emotional intelligence was online. Akutagawa... he really cares about Mr. Dazai.

Dazai Osamu took in all the changes in the expressions of the two people and suddenly had a wonderful idea.

He walked over to Nakajima Atsushi and patted him on the head. "Well done, Atsushi."

Nakajima Atsushi felt the sudden gaze from the opposite side that became like that of an evil spirit, and he felt like crying but had no tears.

Mr. Dazai, please don't hurt me!

He knew too well how desperately Akutagawa wanted to become stronger and to gain Mr. Dazai's approval.

Although he didn't quite understand why Mr. Dazai did not recognize Akutagawa, in his heart, Akutagawa admired Mr. Dazai so much, worked very hard, and made rapid progress. Why did Mr. Dazai never give Akutagawa any affirmation?

Draco could give Nakajima Atsushi an answer.

When Dazai adopted Akutagawa, it was his darkest period. He was determined to commit suicide, had no feelings about the world, and had no attachment to life.

Dazai brought Akutagawa back to the Mafia, and from then on, Dazai became Akutagawa's teacher.

Akutagawa believes that it was Dazai who gave his life meaning, and hopes that he would recognize his strength. He regards Dazai's words as the most important thing worth burning his life for, and he has been pursuing Dazai.

Unlike the Butei, Hong Kong Black is a kind organization. Dazai wants to train Akutagawa to be a strong man in the night. In the night, strength is the pass.

Moreover, Akutagawa's desire for Dazai's recognition is almost crazy. If Dazai gives Akutagawa affirmation too early, Akutagawa will lose the meaning of life from then on. So where should he go?

Dazai can barely be considered a qualified teacher. He once observed Akutagawa silently. After seeing Akutagawa's results, he would smile knowingly and tell others that Akutagawa was very strong, but he never gave Akutagawa any affirmation in person.

However, only Edogawa Ranpo saw through all of this at a glance. The other members of the Armed Detective Agency either did not notice what was happening between Akutagawa Ryunosuke and Dazai Osamu, or did not understand it very well like Nakajima Atsushi.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa completely forgot his original admiration for the tiger-man. Now he just wanted to tear this annoying fool into pieces.

Why? Mr. Dazai never recognized his efforts, but this human tiger could get it easily?

He looked at Nakajima Atsushi fiercely, his teeth gritting.

"Lord Akutagawa!" Higuchi Ichiyo quickly came to Akutagawa Ryunosuke with a vigilant look in his eyes.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just here to take away the members of our Armed Detective Agency~" Dazai Osamu smiled.

"You!" Higuchi Ichiyo was enraged by Dazai's complete disregard for the port mafia, and pulled out his pistol to fire two rounds at Dazai.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke raised his hand to stop Higuchi Ichiyo from pursuing his own death. "You can't beat him." His voice was extremely cold.

"Why? The Armed Detective Agency is just a small workshop, but our Port Mafia is the..." Higuchi Ichiyo couldn't believe it. It was the first time he heard Lord Akutagawa say such words.

"Pa—" A crisp slapping sounded. Higuchi Ichiyo turned away, holding back the words he hadn't spoken.

"You're noisy." Akutagawa glanced at Higuchi Ichiyo with a certain indifference, and his raised hand dropped naturally. "I don't like subordinates who talk too much and don't listen."

Higuchi Ichiyo felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave after hearing the second half of Akutagawa Ryunosuke's words.

She wanted to plead with Akutagawa Ryunosuke in a panic, but when she thought of what Akutagawa Ryunosuke had just said, she closed her mouth involuntarily and stood aside quietly.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke ignored her. He stared at Dazai Osamu. "We must take the tiger away."

"Ah, that's great. Let me see if you have made any progress." Dazai Osamu smiled brightly.

Because of Dazai Osamu's supernatural power that makes him no longer qualified to be human, Akutagawa Ryunosuke can only fight Dazai in pure physical combat. Of course, this is also what he expects.

He must show Mr. Dazai that he is much better than the tiger man!

It's obvious that Ryunosuke Akutagawa could never beat Dazai Osamu.

Dazai Osamu mocked as he took action.

Nakajima Atsushi felt that Akutagawa Ryunosuke was about to break.

Draco suddenly looked up at the sky, then took out his mobile phone that had been modified by the world consciousness, sent a message, then connected a video call with Akiko Yosano, and pointed the phone at Dazai Osamu.

Dazai Osamu noticed Draco's strange behavior out of the corner of his eye, but before he could think about it, he was stepped on by a red figure that fell from the sky.

Dazai Osamu didn't even make a groan before he was smashed face down into the ground.

"Da! Zai!"
