★ - " I'LL LEAVE THE DECISION TO DAZAI. "

The people in the room watches as the President leaves the office gracefully and looking strict.

...

" You both passed! "
Dazai exclaims happily while walking over to Atsushi and [Y/N].
Atsushi looks at him confused,
" M- Meaning.. you assessed what me and [Y/N]-san could do and I'll also be working.. here? "
Dazai smirks, then opening both of his arms,
" Welcome to the Armed Detective Agency. "
[Y/N] slightly tilts her head to the right, confused.
" No offense, Dazai-san, but, perhaps you don't know I have never requested for a job? If you know so, why are you offering me one? "
Dazai chuckles before replying,
" The agency knows you don't have an ability, and I do too. Instead of owning an ability, you instead know prophecies of the future. Your knowledge is on the same par as an ability. Meaning, it is your replacement of an ability. It may bring danger, so we are giving you a job and taking care of you at the same time. By the way, I'm also a bit curious. How do you know of the future? "
He says the last sentence with a terrifying and menacing tone that is enough to threaten and tempt anyone.
[Y/N] smiles sugarly while answering,
" I thank you for the explanation, Dazai-san. Although, as for the question, you are just a bit curious, am I right? There is no critical need for me to be telling you. Curiosity killed the cat. "

' Taking it that way, huh, [Y/N]-chan? Sly little fox. '
" Ah, you're offending me, my belladonna! I guess there is no need for me to question anymore if you won't answer it. But for your delicate and precious heart, I will be forgiving you! Now, m'lady, what do you think about committing double suicide with me- "
Before he could put a full stop to his sentence while taking [Y/N]'s hand, Kunikida took some files he found and smacked the back of Dazai's head.
" Owwie, Kunikida-kun~! "

Suddenly, the black-haired girl that was taken as 'hostage' earlier came up behind the ginger-haired male that was the so-called 'terrorist'
and greeted [Y/N] and Atsushi.
" Heheh, nice to meet you both! "
She squeezes hard on her brother's rib and broke it.
" T- That hurts! I said it hurts! Sorry! I said sorry already, Naomi! "
Atsushi falls back to the ground and backs away using both his hands,
" Y- You guys went this far.. just t- to test us? "
[Y/N] sighs,
" More like only you, Atsushi-kun. I was just a figure there who was completely useless. Forgive me for I have neglected you while you were doing those questionable actions alone, Atsushi-kun. "
Dazai smiles down at Atsushi while smiling,
" If this much surprises you already, Atsushi-kun, you won't last long! It is to be expected for [Y/N]-chan here though. She wasn't troubled at all because she knows of the future, am I right? "
" Yes, Dazai-san. You're right. "
[Y/N] nods robotically,
" T- Then, [Y/N]-san, why didn't you tell me!? "
Atsushi says in surprise and a bit of fear.
" It was because I needed to not tell you. It was all for the agency or the plan to test you would be ruined. "
Atsushi backs few more steps away in fear,
" No, no! This reckless and dangerous place isn't for me! "
Dazai looks the other way with his finger on his chin,
" Really? If you say so, we won't force you. But then we'll have you pay for the room you're living in for free right now. "
Atsushi's eyes widen, Dazai continues,
" There's also food and phone expenses you have to pay, though.. Will you be okay? "

" Dazai-san is right, Atsushi-kun. We have to pay for the care we've received from them. "
[Y/N] nods and sighs.
Atsushi's load of tears like a river falls dramatically, making [Y/N] stifle a laugh.

' I.. I have no other choice, do I!? '
