I will protect you

"Dad, Rose will not come to academy today, so I too will have no idea about her whereabouts. We can't kill her at her own house if that's where she is." Anna told Sebastian.

"Ann, we will have to lure her out. Leave that to me. You go to the academy. You are already getting late." Sebastian ordered.

"Okay, Dad," Anna said and left the room. Sebastian pressed the bell, and Sephr entered the office.

" Let's go and get this over with."

"Yes, sir," Sephr said with a motivating smile.

"Tell the chaffore to take out the car. Let me just grab my coat, and I will be there with you in a minute." Sebastian said. He grabbed his coat and opened a drawer, took out a dagger and a small bottle with some blue crystal liquid inside. He poured a bit of that liquid on a cloth and swiped the cloth over the dagger.

"I will protect you no matter what,"

.....

"So, what's the plan?" Dazai asked Ash.

"Okay, let's see." Ash replied, turning on her phone. She opened their group called "Dumbs," in which Anna and Rose were also participants other than Ash herself.

"Rose, is everything okay?" Ash typed.

"No, yes... Why?" Rose asked.

"I am coming over at yours in five minutes.You get ready for the academy. Otherwise, i will have to come and drag you out of your bed. We can talk about it, anything, in the car, and everything will be okay. Then we will go to the academy together."

"No, don't worry. Everything is alright. It's all good. There is no need to rush over. I am just not feeling too well."

"On my way," Ash texted while grabbing her coat. Then she looked at Dazai.

"Listen, I want you to pretend to be my driver. You will record our conversation secretly while driving us to the academy, and I need you to be outside the academy till 11, and if anything is sus, I will come out to inform you. Then, you will call the backup since mobile phones are not allowed inside the academy, I can't do it myself. It seems like Anna is already on her way to the academy since she did not see our messages. She will be oblivious to the fact that Rose will also be there. I hope it all works out just the way we have planned." Anna told Dazai, who was obediently listening to Ash with an "I got it" look, his mildly wavy, short, dark brown hair shining in the sunlight. His narrow dark brown eyes twinkled in the sunlight. He was a master in his work. He has never been defeated but preferred to keep a low profile. His classic style was dandyism. He was just around Ash's age, but his skills outdid hers. Always a perfectionist.

Ash, on the other hand, would complete the work, but the only thing that stopped her from being Dazai's competitor, two things actually, was that she had a lot to lose and would let things and people really close to her. The other thing was her warth. In anger, she would leave the bodies to decay and rot while Dazai neither ever let anything or anyone close to him nor would let his personal feelings interfere between his work. He would hide evidence like nothing ever happened, and the person just vanished in the air. They were a private institute, so it involved this kind of stuff, but mostly, they took on the government cases, which were almost unsolvable.

"I will protect you,"
