Shenmu Liang had the unluckiest day of her life.
Her favorite teacher died under mysterious circumstances. Somehow, she fell from a rooftop and splattered herself across the ground, then ran into a mysterious creature that could talk.
The creature said it was a curse from Dazai.
Mysterious creature: "Who told you to leave a five-yen coin at his grave and then just walk away?"
Shenmu Liang: "I handed over every last thing I owned. That was plenty sincere. What a petty guy."
Mysterious creature: "...Simply put, until you get the coin back, you'll remain a wandering ghost, and even reincarnation won't free you from your bad luck."
Shenmu Liang: "Got it. Just bring me back to life and I'll go get it."
The merciless creature said, "There's no hope for this world. Go try the next one."
Shenmu Liang: "Wait..."
The token of a bond left before a grave, and a curse carried by a five-yen coin.
The curse will only end when she finds that coin in a world where other Dazai-like beings exist.
To reclaim her freedom, the girl sets off on a journey to find the coin.

#I'm a Cleaner in Yokohama
Armed Detective Agency Dazai: "Beautiful lady, will you join me in a double suicide?"
Shenmu Liang: "Ha ha, I've already done that."
Shenmu Liang had never believed her teacher was dead. But ever since arriving in Yokohama, she dreamed of her teacher's death almost every night, over and over, watching as her teacher coldly killed her and mocked her disbelief.
When Shenmu Liang was on the verge of breaking down, she met a bandage-wrapped boy who looked exactly like her teacher.
"...Teacher Zhizi?"
And so the desperate prisoner ran at full speed, then grabbed the boy by the throat.
"If you don't want to live, then die!"
[Reading Guide]
1. The protagonist has no supernatural abilities.
2. The author's notes include little skits about the literary greats. You don't need to know the source material for Bungou to Alchemist, and it has been adapted. The main story does not involve real-world authors.
3. In Japanese, the word for five yen sounds like the word for "bond." The teacher mentioned in the blurb is Zhizi, the female version of Dazai from the Bungo Stray Dogs IF timeline. She once crossed over into Shenmu Liang's world. Shenmu Liang's feelings for Zhizi go from love to hate and back to love, and she's trying to build some kind of substitute romance story. (Hey!)

The Divine Comedy, Western fantasy romance
"The Ship of Fools, the Ship of Fools, sailing to the continent of freedom..."
Because of my ominous red hair, the villagers shunned me from childhood. The only person in the village who was kind to me said that if I boarded the ship sailing to the continent of magic, my fate could change.
One day, he excitedly told me the ship had arrived. I boarded the vessel I had dreamed of, looking forward to a new life. They said there would be creatures with bird feathers and two heads, brewed drinks as tender as newly sprouted buds, and people whose bodies smelled sweeter than flowers.
Only later did I learn that the Ship of Fools carried madmen and monsters abandoned by the world. They counted me as one of them, and I became a sacrifice to another world.
The miraculous New World really does exist, but miracles have never been meant for me.
If I can't have what I want, what makes you think you deserve to have it?

Theme: To live or to die, that is the question.
Although he died many times, he was getting further and further away from the real death each time! It's really a blessing to be cursed by the one you love. Is there a sequel to this chapter? I want to read it and talk about it later 🥺! Although I know that the final pose is definitely not like this, the image of Pieta still pops up in my mind! But there is another person who is pitiful!
A stand-in must look like a stand-in!
Good product! Our existence in this world is like walking forward carrying a shadow on our back. The shadow is sometimes in front and sometimes behind, but it never leaves. Ryo's mentality is probably to face Odasaku's fate with the attitude of "Knowing that you can't do something but doing it, knowing that you will die without regrets", and finally choose to trade his life for his life. I have complete trust in Ryo and firmly believe that she will never die like this. She may have said that super evolution to Zai with the intention of "I hope everything will be fine for you next time we meet." 🐶 The role of the leader must be enough, right? As expected, he is still positioned as the BOSS behind the scenes! Why did the leader Zai turn into a mysterious creature? Is it possible that Mahou is really making wine? (Laughing) And why is it cold? Absorbing the physique? That's quite interesting, I'm really looking forward to the follow-up. I really want to gain weight quickly. How long do we have to wait?——[Hold your chin]
() Just now I was so impressed by Teacher Gardenia's extraordinary teacher-student relationship~, when I saw what the author said later, I couldn't help but laugh out loud () 😏
Teacher, what you wrote is so good! [Crying loudly] Damn it, Teacher Haruko was cut off so miserably. It was really well written!!
Woohoo, the author has finished the story so well. I was very heartbroken when I read the last few chapters. I really like the author's description of Zhizi and the leader Zaiah. It is a very real feeling. It has not been beautified by morality. I just like the feeling of being stabbed through the heart with a blunt knife. .
Congratulations on the completion! This wave is the victory of the Hoard Rats 💪
It turns out that the curse is the way to extend life. The teacher didn't let go of Xiaoliang's hand…
Finished spreading flowers!!! Mr. Liang, please take me away! I'm going to start the second brush! (Sit up)
