02 Meeting

︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵✧ ˚ 　· 　　 .

It didn't take long to gather everyone for the meeting. Several files are spread across the table, some of them are buried under Ranpo's half empty snack bags.. Most of the team looks tense, frowning at the documents in front of them. Even those used to dealing with the bizarre, like Kunikida seems unsettled. Meanwhile Dazai lounges back, acting like this was just another day while Ranpo casually munches on his snacks, seemingly unfazed. Despite their calm, they take this case very seriously.

"There are over 100 criminals who were found dead yesterday, and it all happened around the same time! It feels like whoever's behind this is sending a message or pulling off something big, some sort of that."

"I-It is starting to freak people out! We need to figure out how and why this is happening fast!"

"The cause of death for every single one of them was a heart attack, no exceptions! It's strange."

"Another strange thing is that ALL of the victims were criminals who were actively on the run."

"There are probably a lot more deaths we haven't heard about yet. The numbers could keep going up as more reports come in." Dazai replies, holding a document.

"And even if the victims were criminals, whoever killed them is still guilty!"

"This might be a case thats been planned out step by step." Kunikida says, he jots down some notes in his book as he speaks.

 "The autopsy results said each one of them had a heart attack, but no reason why."

"Do you think their bodies just gave out without any warning, Ranpo san?"

"Mhm" The boy with brown cape states. "There are usually multiple pieces of evidence to analyze, fingerprints, even motive hm.."

"But don't worry" he declares with a confident grin "I'm the greatest detective in the world! No case is too complex for my intellect!" He dramatically pulls out his glasses, adjusting them with a flourish reaching for a bag of snacks with his other hand. "A little fuel for my genius mind" he says.

In Yokohama, life carries on as usual. People are chatting, shopping, and enjoying the warm sun that shines down on the streets. A news report flashes across nearby screens "A robber has died from a heart attack during an attempted arrest."

"Awesome! Those evil people are slowly dying one by one!"

"That sounds a bit scary, don't you think.."

"But less crime means we can walk around without worrying!"

"Do you think the police are behind this?"

"Haven't you heard about 𝙆𝙄𝙍𝘼? The greatest!"

"Kira is just making the world a better place! Who cares about the details?"

"Right!"

People are caught between cheering for 𝙆𝙄𝙍𝘼 and worrying. The streets are filled up with more people, lively chatter and excitement.

The scene shifts to Y/N, who's sitting in his room. The glow of his computer screen illuminating his face in the dim light, opening the certain website. "Kira, the one who purifies the world" Everyone calls Kira for short, a nickname that kinda turns killer into something cooler. He doesn't mind the nickname much.

Some people are calling him a hero, a savior who is getting rid of evil people. Some calling him that he's no better than a criminal. He could easily type out a response, play the part of the mysterious user everyone is dying to know more about. He thinks its better to let them wonder. 

Y/N wonders what if someone finds out its him? He shakes his head, pushing the thought away "No one will ever know" he assures himself. "I'm careful"

"Not even the greatest detective will be able to catch me"

He smiles to himself, proud of the work he put in. This isn't just a game, its his mission.

Y/N spins in his chair, scrolling through the comments on his Kira fan page. Looking at the comments, most of them are compliments or cheering. Typical right? People love to play the saint in public while hiding their true thoughts, who knows what they really think?

He shakes his head, closing the website. He turns his attention to the task at hand, you know what kind of work.

Little did he know, this Kira person is catching the eye of multiple organizations.

"Hey, Atsushi! Any progress?" Dazai casually strolls up, hands stuffed in his coat pockets, while Kunikida leans in, eyes narrowing at the computer screen. "Uhh... Ah! Look at this Dazai san, Kunikida san!" Atsushi says, leaning back in his chair and pointing at a website on the screen.

'Kira, the one who purifies the world'

"This... it looks like a homepage for the person behind the killings?" Atsushi says, frowning in confusion. How can a killer get a homepage he thinks.

"Let me see." Before Atsushi could blink, Dazai shoved him out of the chair with a loud "AGHHH!!" The next thing he knew, Dazai was already sitting, grinning like a kid.

"Sorry, Atsushi-kun~ I just got a little too eager!" Dazai chuckles. Kunikida then smacks Dazai upside the head with a firm "WHACK!"

"OUCH!" Dazai winces, rubbing his head. "Come on, Kunikida kun don't get so worked up! Stress makes you look older, y know?"

Kunikida pauses, adjusting his glasses suspiciously. "Really? Are you lying again?"

With a completely serious expression, Dazai nods. "Nope, totally serious! Quick, write it down!" Without missing a beat, Kunikida pulls out his notebook, muttering as he wrote "Unnecessary stress speeds up aging.. Avoid.."

"Just kidding!~" Dazai chimes in mid-sentence.

Kunikida, without hesitation slams Dazai into the door, leaving him spread out like a starfish.

Meanwhile Atsushi is still on the floor where hed been dumped, stares wide eyed at the chaos. His expression is practically screaming 'EH?' as he had forgotten to even get up.

Shaking his head, Atsushi finally pushes himself off the floor brushing off his clothes as Kunikida reclaims the chair, leaving Dazai slumped against the door like an abandoned toy. Dazai, of course is still dramatically 'sniffing' the door like it is the worst betrayal hed ever experienced.

"Cheering for a killer.. H-How can anyone think thats okay?" Atsushi says, voice quiet.

Dazai suddenly pops his head out from under the desk "Because it's about people wanting some sort of twisted justice."

"They think Kira is doing what the law can't. That's why this is so dangerous." Kunikida adds as Dazai makes the 'you got it right!' gesture with his fingers

Dazai grins, folding his arms behind his head.

"Let's see how they handle it when we're on their trail."
