Naishi

Rapimento

Atsushi had just finished helping Rampo catch the train. He was heading to a city up north to solve a case and now the old young man was returning to the agency.

Suddenly a shadow pushed him into an empty alley hitting him with a knife handle.
He heard a female voice shout to stop, but Atsushi activated his power. Legs and arms became the usual tiger paws and began to run, gaining several meters from his pursuer. "So what the rumors said were true, eh. I'll have more fun anyway" and she started running too.

All of a sudden he took a leap and, holding on to a wall, climbed onto a roof. Atsushi had lost sight of her
He didn't even have time to turn around before the hooded shadow pressed two fingers on his neck. Before fainting he saw the pursuer take off his cloak, releasing long black hair

Atsushi opened his eyes with difficulty. How long had he been asleep? Where was he located? Was the attacker still there? Pii heard a voice singing to himself:

"A
Like when the night lights up
The world becomes lively
The world becomes lively
Let's put up the decorations
New Year's decorations
New Year's decorations
Du-

Ah you woke up, you're a sleepyhead aren't you?"
"What are you singing"
"They often sing it in hospitals to give courage to the sick"
"What?!"
"What?"
"You how-" the boy stopped himself noticing that he was tied from head to toe with a woman in her twenties looking at him.
"You don't care to know. Anyway, I'm here asking questions."
"Will you take me to the Port Mafia?" "One: I'm telling you again that I'm the one asking questions, two I don't kidnap kids, three yes I'm part of the Port Mafia. But they don't know I'm here. After we've finished chatting you can go back to your friends. But don't you have to tell anyone about me. Nobody, am I clear?" The boy simply nodded.

Well, it seems you learn quickly. Then tell me about your colleague Osamu Dazai. His attitude, his physique and his way of fighting."
"Well then what can I say, he's tall, you have brown hair, hazel eyes and he has bandages on his arms and legs.
Let's say he courts every woman he sees, doesn't listen to anyone and is a pig maniac.

He stopped noticing a dark aura completely enveloping the girl
"That bastard will pay for it. You court every woman who passes by, eh. Damn human waste. I'll kill you, you'll tear your bones apart and feed them to the-"
"Are you jealous by any chance? Look, if you want to meet him, just introduce yourself and-" "I'M NOT JEALOUS" I could never like someone like him. Be careful what you say or you'll end up without an eye... and don't comment clearly?!!!" Atsushi nodded, not investigating further.

Suddenly tranquilizer bullets came out of the void trying to hit the tiger boy. A blanket of smoke spread across the alley and an imposing figure headed towards him. "Hey Guild mascot. Before you take him you have to defeat me" having said this with a quick sprint he stood in front of Atsushi and threw an uppercut on the man's chin.

He staggered, but Naishi wasted no time and threw a volley of punches at his chest.
He tried to take her hands to break them, but the woman did so first by clasping her hands in his. "Forgive me but you're not my type at all" and with that, with one quick blow, she broke his hands. The man let out a cry of pain, but it wasn't over yet. Pushing himself with the man's broken fingers, he leaped and kicked the back of his opponent's head, who went limp with a groan.

Those of the Guild are really pathetic. Never underestimate me.... well I think it's getting late. Please don't die at the hands of these rich guys, tiger boy. Oh don't tell anyone about me because I will know and I will make you pay." clear?" he said in a mellifluous voice. "Did you just defend me?"
"Shut up"
He took his cape back and fled into an alley. Still confused Atsushi turned and headed towards the agency.
