Atsushi, the immortal male witch (pseudo) and the mysterious counselor of the Japanese government. Since the first generation, he has always been in the dark, acting as he pleases. Sometimes he will not intervene even if the organization is under great threat or even in danger of destruction. However, as long as the people he likes in the organization (not necessarily the leader) have any difficulties, he will provide free help.
The first time Dazai Osamu saw that person was at the bedside of the previous leader.
Before Mr. Mori took back the scalpel, the unpopular guy walked out from the shadows that should have been empty, reached out and took the crime tool that should have been firmly in Mr. Mori's hand, and turned it over in his hand.
Mr. Mori, however, turned around and announced his imposed witness status to himself as if nothing had happened.
"Of course, Mr. Mori. - Where is that person? Why don't you introduce him?"
Dazai Osamu could clearly determine that that person did not belong to any department of the government - at least not on the list of employees at or below the cadre level.
"Dazai-kun, what are you talking about? There are only two of us here, and the ancestor leader who died of illness - it's just us."
Dazai didn't look up at Mr. Mori's obvious expression - Mr. Mori, it's time to call the leader.
"Yes, chief."
Goodbye but not here.
…
After that, Nakajima Atsushi seemed to be here permanently.
Osamu Dazai often meets that young man at unexpected times and places, who seems to have everything in his eyes but seems to see nothing. The only thing that he can be sure of has in common is when Dazai Osamu is alone - if it were not for his absolute confidence in his own actions, Dazai Osamu would almost doubt whether the other person has installed a monitor on himself.
The other party's visits seem to be full of purpose, but often seem to have no reason; they never ask about the mission or organization, but occasionally they say some surprising and seemingly meaningless words, and those messages can always be proven later to be the truth and trap that have been ignored.
——It's not that Osamu Dazai had never doubted the other party, but that person knew this but didn't care, just like trying to please the cute but ferocious stray cat on the roadside, which really made him feel a long sense of powerlessness, as if he punched cotton with all his strength, and Dazai was at a loss.
"Could it be an illusion that's unique to me?"
One year was enough for Dazai Osamu's height to skyrocket by a full nineteen centimeters, and he firmly established his reputation as the youngest cadre; but he still maintained the same height, and even the person was only known by the name "Nakajima Atsushi".
The relief from the frustration came from a private meeting with the leader.
Alone - as it should be.
…
