After White Akutagawa Wandered Onto the Wrong Set

While hunting a vampire, detective agency member Akutagawa Ryunosuke accidentally fell into the sea. When he woke up, it seemed he had gone back twelve years.

The white Akutagawa, who thinks only of his little sister, doesn't yet know that he's crossed not just time but into another universe as well.

Little Akutagawa clutches his sister protectively and glares at the man who looks exactly like him. A small, black Rashomon snarls and snaps at the man's shoulder.

White Akutagawa (struggling): I... really am not your father, and I didn't abandon my wife and child.

--

When Akutagawa returns to the detective agency to visit his colleagues, he comes face to face with the president and Ranpo, who are putting up the sign for their new business.

White Akutagawa: Excuse me, are you hiring?

#The company vanishes just after I finally secure a permanent position. What do I do? Asking online#

--

Years later, White Akutagawa stares in utter silence at the new hires interviewing for the detective agency: the mafia boss Osamu Dazai, and the White Reaper, Atsushi Nakajima, who was found starving by the roadside.

Is there, after all, something wrong with this world...?
