After Losing My Memory, I Married My Archrival by Picking Up Junk

[Blurb]

Picking up junk is my side gig. My nemesis is Nakahara Chuuya.

When the Mafia's Nakahara Chuuya came looking for him in a fury, Huo Yisi, who had been secretly scavenging and living like a sewer rat, was shocked to learn that before losing his memory, he'd apparently been playing the Mafia's number-one villain.

● The kind with overwhelming strength, ruthless methods, and enough muscle to pull a willow tree out of the ground with one hand?

● And the number-one admirer of a certain defector executive, Dazai Osamu?

● There were even rumors that Dazai Osamu defected from the Port Mafia because he couldn't stand Huo Yisi harassing him. (Let's leave that one out.)

The trouble was, before losing his memory, he was supposedly a hopeless romantic. He saw Dazai Osamu for the first time and immediately started clinging to him, thinking about nothing but Dazai. He'd managed to ruin a perfectly good hand and ended up with a package deal: a critical beating from the Mafia's righteous Double Black duo, leaving him seriously injured and amnesiac.

And so.

Dazai Osamu, whom Huo Yisi had fished out of the river, peered at him and taunted, "Even if you took this chance to finish me off and send me to the next world, it'd be easy for you, wouldn't it?"

Huo Yisi, mourning the loss of his fishing net: Huh?

The orange-haired young man, who had given Huo Yisi a thorough beating and dragged him back to the Mafia interrogation room, said, "Even killing you on the spot wouldn't be enough to satisfy me."

Huo Yisi, who'd been beaten up and still had no idea what was going on: ???

Fine, fine. I get it, I'm the villain.

(Remember how the two of you are treating me now, you jerks.)

(Heaven knows, that unscrupulous boss with the surname Mori lured him into working for the Mafia with threats and bribes, then kept docking his pay. He didn't have money to flirt with anyone, okay?)

(No matter how handsome Dazai Osamu is, he's not more important than getting something to eat!)

(So why was I so obsessed with Dazai Osamu before I lost my memory??! I have no idea!)

Huo Yisi: Stop pinning every bad thing on me! I saw that guy competing with me for junk just yesterday. He's the king of junk, the king of kings! He even lives in a dump!

Dazai Osamu: ...Me?

This is how one female admirer, who preferred to remain anonymous, described Huo Yisi:

"Oh, he's just so handsome and poor and incredibly capable!!"

Huo Yisi: ?? Thanks, but could you leave out the poor part?

Wasn't I just an honest, hardworking, upstanding citizen of Yokohama, picking up junk every day to buy the fried chicken I'd been dreaming about?

In the end, after figuring out the truth about who he was, Huo Yisi sincerely apologized to everyone he'd hurt.

Facing Dazai Osamu, his former crush, Huo Yisi said with complete sincerity, "Um, a long time ago I came down with a strange illness that made me like men. But thanks to you, I've recovered now. If you know any beautiful women, I'd appreciate a recommendation."

Dazai Osamu: ??? I'd believe you if that little slug beside me weren't giving off murderous vibes.

Anyway, Huo Yisi was an assassin ranked second, nearly forgotten in Japan, and at last his senior disciple brother and guardian, Qing Feng, had come to take him home.

But Huo Yisi had no intention of going back.

He even came up with a perfectly reasonable explanation: "Because I'm going to marry Nakahara Chuuya."

Qing Feng: ??

"Hey, you've got the order backward, don't you?" The orange-haired young man, who had beaten Huo Yisi black and blue the first time they met, rushed over, pinned Huo Yisi's head down, and ground out, "If anything, I should be the one marrying you!"

Is that really the point?!

I fainted from the shock of you two being gay.

This story features characters from three anime:

Bungo Stray Dogs, Detective Conan, and Scissor Seven.

There's a love-triangle showdown, so keep an eye out!

Huo Yisi: I'm going home. Yokohama isn't my home.

● An orange-haired Mafia executive with gravity powers x a blue-haired, amnesiac assassin from a Chinese shadow alliance with electrical powers

● Chuuya pairing

(So all the top-ranked assassins like losing their memories, huh?)

Here's a fun cross-country (?) romance.

● A silly love story between two people at the peak of their fighting prowess.

● The main plot isn't very complicated, so you can read it as a comedy.

Theme: Love has to be mutual.
