It was the beginning of the school day and Dazai was standing in the hallway with his friends and smoked, leaning back against the wall. There were a lot of people walking down the hallway, and most of them Dazai knew, but... Dazai's eyes landed on a boy Dazai hadn't seen in school before. And then Dazai did not yet know that this guy would be a new student and part-time classmate of Dazai. Dazai's eyes were fixed on this guy walking down the hallway.
