The first thing you did upon waking in the agency's infirmary was head straight for the shower. You ignored the concerned faces and their pleas for you to rest, casting a sharp glare that silenced them before locking the bathroom door.
The thought of going two days without a shower sent a shiver down your spine. Why couldn't Chaos spare just five minutes for a relaxing bath?
After changing into fresh clothes, you grabbed your keys and headed for the door, only to be intercepted by Yosano, who firmly guided you into a chair.
"You need to rest and answer our questions. You fainted before we could even start, but now that you're awake, there's no escaping it," she said.
Ranpo, Dazai, Atsushi and even Kunikida were present, making it clear this would be a rigorous interrogation.
"So, is this an interrogation? Because it seems a bit crowded," you remarked, trying to think of excuses for your behavior.
"Too bad. First question: Are you the real Y/N? If so, reveal something only they would know," Dazai said.
"Seriously? You want me to prove it?" You raised an eyebrow. "Alright, you asked for it."
You started with Ranpo, pointing at him.
"Ranpo's secret candy stash is hidden under the loose floorboards beneath Atsushi's table. He bribed me with cake to keep quiet."
Next, you turned to Atsushi.
"Atsushi turns into a tiger when he uses his ability and is still in denial about it."
Then Dazai.
"Dazai was once a Port Mafia executive."
"I've got nothing on Yosano" you said. "No dirt there."
Finally, you looked at Kunikida.
"Kunikida's ideal type of woman is—"
"Alright, alright, you're the real Y/N. Second question: How many parts to your ability do you have?" Kunikida asked, relieved.
"Two," you replied confidently.
"You're lying," Dazai immediately challenged. "Your body language gives you away."
"I'm not. Try me with something else, like a math question. My reaction will be the same, even if I get it wrong."
"What's 4+1?" Dazai asked, skeptical.
You held out your fingers.
"Uh, -5?"
They stared at you, except Ranpo, who seemed to understand.
"They're terrible at simple problems but ace the complex ones. Watch this." He turned to you.
"What's the square root of 25 multiplied by 6 minus 108 divided by 17 in fractions?"
"That's a trick question. The answer is a whole number: 24."
"Even I don't know that one. I guess I'm just built different," you said smugly as they tried to figure it out.
"Third question: What were you possessed by?" Atsushi asked.
"No idea," You said flatly.
"Not even a hint?" Yosano pressed.
"Nope," You lied, earning suspicious looks, but they seemed to accept it for now.
"Alright, last question: Will this happen again?" Ranpoasked. "The president said it wouldn't, but we're still skeptical."
You clapped slowly. "Wowwwww, talk about trust guys. Yes and no. I made a deal with whatever was controlling me. It'll only come out when I need help, or maybe not at all. I forget," you said, keeping them in the dark. Ranpo's side-eye glance told you he was catching on.
"Alright, shoo. I need to talk to Ranpo," you said, waving them out.
They reluctantly filed out, with Yosano advising, "Make sure to rest. Your eyes are still healing."
"Okay, what do you want from me, genius detective?" you asked.
"You know what I want. What did your 'spirit' ask for in return?" Ranpo asked, now with his glasses on. You were in trouble.
"I need your help. My 'spirit' wants a human body. Such things exist, you know," you said.
"Yes, I know about the Dragon Head conflict. But how do you know it won't use it to destroy the world?" he asked.
"Oh, trust me, the little guy just wants a normal human life. He's had enough trauma for several lifetimes," You said, patting your chest.
Ranpo studied you, trying to gauge the truth. "Alright, I trust your judgment. The deal didn't specify when you have to give it, right?"
"Yep," you thought sarcastically. Lying to one of the few who could help you—brilliant.
"I'll see if I can find a way for you to be more involved with the mafia. Also, it might be wise to spend more time with John, given his connections." Ranpo said as he headed for the door. "One last thing," he added, turning back to you.
"Yes?"
"Go buy me candy. You ratted out my hiding place. I won't forgive you until you make up for seven months of sweets," he said, walking out.
Your eye twitched in annoyance, When Fukuzawa expires you'll get your hands on him one day...

Note: I'm sorry for not posting in a really long time I had to catch up for school.
I won't be writing the next chapter until someone tells me whether to send Y/N to jail with Fyodor and Dazai or stay out and help the agency.
If you guys want the working, its down here.
The square root of 25 is 5. Then, multiplying that by 6 gives us 30.
Next, let's calculate 108 divided by 17, which is equal to 108/17.
Now, subtracting 108/17 from 30 gives us:
30 - 108/17
To simplify this expression, I can convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
30 - 108/17 = 30 - 66/17 = 24 6/17 - 66/17 = 24Love you guys, thank you for your support <3
