The stifling air of Toyoko smelled of damp rot and quiet desperation. Among the crowd of children in their garish, neon-bright clothes, a single somber figure stood apart: Chuuya, clad in gothic black with a cigarette dangling from his lips.

Chuuya's melancholic beauty was a violent, captivating contrast to the chaotic squalor. Mori waited for an order. A slow, enigmatic smile—the kind that hides abysses—curved Dazai's lips as he leaned toward the driver, breaking every rule about getting involved.
