One weekend, Dazai was wandering down the street when he ran into a boy.
He stopped at red lights, crossed on green, and even kicked a pickpocket who happened to pass by to the ground. However you looked at him, he was a model citizen.
The only thing was, he looked just a tiny bit like Dazai's former boss, Mr. Mori.

The boy was annoyed by Dazai's attempts to get close. After a rather unsuccessful conversation, Dazai finally learned his name and steered the topic toward Mr. Mori.
"There's something I've never understood. Does being related by blood automatically make you father and son?"
"Well... why couldn't it?"

Mori Yayuki came to Japan just to shop and sightsee, but unexpectedly ran into a guy who was way too familiar with him and even wanted to introduce him to a father.
Thanks, but no thanks. I came out of a crack in a rock. I don't have a father.
But it seems that this man with the same surname is the boss of the Port Mafia in Yokohama.
Hah, look at him now, what a fall. At least the man used to be a doctor.

Meeting him became unavoidable, and Mori Yayuki couldn't do anything about it.
"No matter what, you're my son."
"You just want a second Alice."
As expected, the meeting ended badly. What was the point?

He became somewhat acquainted with the guy who had been so overly friendly before.
"Work? I'm a manager at a multinational company that runs social media platforms... Don't look at me like that. My boss doesn't care about education or age, and he pays very generously."
"Is your company called the Rats in the House of the Dead?"
"Yeah."
Then the boss came to Yokohama on vacation, too.

"Dostoevsky, people say all sorts of things about how capitalists exploit their employees to squeeze out every last penny, so they make a big deal about how the boss is the employees' provider. I think you could use that line to fool me, too."
"Oh."

The protagonist is Mori's son. A scumbag, cut from the same cloth as Mori.
A member of the Rats in the House of the Dead, he spends every day with Dostoevsky and Gogol. Their influence has left his way of thinking a little off.
Mainly about the hellish father-son bond between Mori and his son, and secondarily about a party of troublemakers, with the whole "I'm bored, I want to see blood flowing like a river" kind of vibe.
No CP. Little Mori and Dostoevsky have a better vibe as close companions. Romance would only slow down the speed at which they sabotage each other.
Theme: Building healthy, positive relationships is very important
