Bsd: Mission TB300KC

Chapter 20

It was as if nothing has ever even happened, and yet it was there, Hideo, Hichiraka, Smith, the seven sirens, Ashai Kurao and over 2000 other victims and why? Because three government officials had thought they could controle people of the Ariyoshis, use them to destroy an entire city even though there would have been better options and then saving that information in files, with only their names to keep them in check, because if they don't then the files would be made official.

It was ridiculously stupid, if one thought about it. Ranpo thought it was stupid. Why would these three have thought they can compete, lie and get away with it?

Ranpo was torn from his train of thought, when suddenly there was a knock on the door to the agency office. Which was strange, because usually an employee would just bring clients up here.

"Come in!" He yelled, all members sitting straight looking at the door.

The door opened and Ranpo almost dropped his chocolate. Sawako Ariyoshi, the red dragon was standing in front of them,  dressed like a normal human being instead of those mission clothes from last time, hair in a bun and no jewlery to be seen.

Before anyone could say anything, the door of the presidents office opened as well, as he had been interrupted by the commotion.

"Sawako" He commented, it was more of a realization than an acctual greeting.

"Fukuzawa-san, I apologize for intruding like this once more. However I would like to ask you to save my brother, just once more?"

At that the presidents eyes widened, why? what had happened? Was he injured?

"No, he is not, he seems to have gotten himself poisoned by Tyler smith, I am uncertain as to how it happened, since I can not look into his mind as you are well aware of. However, I do know, that he is poisoned and that he needs medical care, he has been unconscious for half a day now, before that he had been fine, he just suddenly collapsed and didn't wake up again"

Ranpo was confused, who had she just with no?
"It is my ability dear, the times of distrust I copy other abilities and am forever able to use them. This includes one that reads minds"

"Bring him here, where is he?" Yosano asked or ordered, no one was really sure. Sawako dissapeared on the spot only to show back up in the door three minutes later carrying an unconscious Dazai on her back.

It didn't even take long until Yosano found out what is was, a typical american thing, fatal, without any antidote. An antidote she had to make now. Sawako had left them, she had simply suddenly been gone. Ranpo had a feeling he knew what this was about, but looking at Dazai right now, he wasn't so sure, maybe Sawako had simply wanted to rid herslef of Dazai. It didn't matter he was here now and that was what mattered.

It took Yosano five hours to make the antidote. During that time Dazais condition was a mess. He had gotten a fever, his heartbeat was irregular, his breaths coming out short and flat and he shivered uncontrolably.

By the time Yosano finally came back from her lab, with an injection in her hand, Dazais hearbeat had begun to to slow down rapidly, his breaths becoming heavier and slower by the second.

Yosano was almost afraid it was too late, when she injected him the antidote. They only heaved a sigh of relieve, when after five minutes, his breath and heartbeat began to go back into a stable condition.

When the man did finally open his eyes and saw the president sitting on his bedside, his first reaction was to apologize. The presiden made a rushed movement forward and Dazai thought he was gonna strike him with his sword.

Instead of burning metal he received a warm comforting hug.
"Don't apologize, no one'a mad at you"
