Dazai is on the phone with Odasaku.

Aika stands behind him, playing with her gun.

"We'll meet you there." He says before he hangs up. He turns to Aika motioning his head to the door. "Lets go, discovery awaits."

They leave the port mafia headquarters. Dazai heads outside, Aika following him. He gives a message to one of his men, telling him to round up a group to head to the enemy's base.

He then turns to the girl. "Aika, we found their base if you didn't just guess that." He says. She nods, frowning. "How you're wondering?"

She nods again. The man reaches into his back pocket and take out a plastic bag with a leaf in it. "One of the soldiers had this stuck to their shoe, led us straight to what we assume is their base."

....
Oda headed to the location Dazai gave him, he wanted to see the base before Dazai's men would arrive. He ran into the building, it was dark, the only light being shown from the moon. The building was very obviously abandoned, looking like it hadn't been used in years.

Oda had a hunch, one that had been clawing at him ever since Mori first gave him this mission.

He ran down the stairs that led to a room. Inside was a chair with someone tied to it.

"Odasaku? What are you doing here?" Ango asked, frightened. He quickly began scolding Oda. "This place is too dangerous, the enemy is using this facility as a hideout!"

Oda ran to the mans side and started untying the rope that held him to the chair. "You telling me you dont need my help?" He asked, rhetorically. 

"I can handle things by myself!" Ango bit.

"Really?" Oda breathed. "Allow me to deduce why you're in this position now, mimic found out you were a spy didn't they?"

"H-how did you?"

"Everyone in the Port Mafia believes that you're a spy for mimic, but they're wrong." Oda continued. "You've actually been a spy for the Port Mafia, that infiltrated mimic. The reason those guys were staking out your room for sniper rifles was to make sure the pistol hidden in there wouldn't get stolen. Some might wonder, why weren't they just sent to the bosses hideout to assassinate him? That's because you lied and told them you didnt know is location. Which information you decided to give up and which information you decided to withhold, it was all predetermined by the boss."

Ango was surprised, but kept the praise fro later. "You need to get out of here." He said firmly, like a mother speaking to her child.

Oda looked up at his associate.

"For all of my planning i really screwed this one up." Ango went on. "They planted timed explosives all throughout this building, they want to send me straight to hell for being the traitor that I am."

Oda finished untying the knot that held Ango captive. "You see, looks like you do need my help after all." He remarked.

Ango fell out of the chair. Oda went to his side and helped him up, holding him by one arm to steady him. "Lets go! How much longer till the bombs go off?"

"Your powers can answer that question better than I can."

Oda sighed. "If only they were as conviennent as that. At least, our times not up yet."

They started running.

They went down some stairs when Oda used his ability, they had approximately 4 seconds until the bombs would go off.

They were planted in the stairs they just went down and the ones they were about to go down, os they turned left and ended up going into a room with paper work just as the bombs went off. There was a glass window, they had to jump through it.
