How to raise Dazai gently

64-65: Eternal Life Village

Chapter 64:

There is nothing wrong with the entire village of Changsheng Village. It can even be said that it is as peaceful and peaceful as a paradise. Compared with the depressed and chaotic Yokohama, I don’t know how much better it is - except for the residents here. There are no other shortcomings except that they are old people who may not know how many years they have lived, and that they may change their attitude towards Osamu Dazai and Kuyo Araki at any time.

"It's very peaceful here."

Osamu Dazai said softly while sitting on a stone bench by the roadside, looking at the village.

Araki Kūyo closed his eyes and let go of his mind to feel the boundary of this different space. After actually touching it, he took it back.

After exploring the scope and intensity of this alien space, Araki Kuyo felt a lot more relieved. If the situation was not right, he would lead Osamu Dazai to break through here directly.

"The peace here is just a last resort. If it were you, would you choose to live here?"

Araki Kuyo looked at Dazai Osamu and made up his mind. If Dazai Osamu's answer is yes, then he will Spend some more energy to find a way to preserve this place.

Since there are no clues to be found outside, Araki Kūyo and Dazai Osamu can only go back to the home of the woman at the beginning - after all, they still don't know what dangers will appear here at night. Compared with the unknown dangers, they have already been determined. The woman in question was easier to deal with.

But when they returned to the bungalow with orange light and opened the somewhat old wooden door, they found that the place was busier than ever.

Compared with the only woman I saw when I first came in, there were many more people here, and they were busy happily washing vegetables, cutting shreds, and lighting fires. There were also two strange young women who saw them. When he came back, he hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile: "You two must be tired, right? We are preparing a reception for you, but there are still some things that need to be prepared - you two should go to the outdoor hot spring at the back first. Take a bath to wash off your tiredness, right?"

Araki Kūyo and Dazai Osamu did not refuse. These women were indeed suspicious, but they had not yet shown any ill will. Whether it was Dazai Osamu or Araki Kūyo, it was as easy to detect people's malice as breathing. Just as easy.

But compared to Araki Kūyo, who didn't really care even if he noticed it, Dazai Osamu was more responsible and naturally more cautious in the illusion he was in.

Dazai Osamu grabbed Araki Kuyo's wrist and said with a bright smile: "Thank you very much, we really need to take a good bath."

The women showed even more joyful smiles, and behind them someone stopped unknown. The other women who stopped chopping vegetables also got busy again.

They were all paying attention to Osamu Dazai and Kuyo Araki. If he refused, Osamu Dazai's instinct told him that the situation might become more troublesome, so he simply agreed first to see what they were planning.

The open-air hot spring is in the backyard of this bungalow, and it is not surrounded by any fence. As far as the eye can see are dark gray trees and bushes, making rustling sounds in the deepening night.
