The peaceful times are over. Moloch von Zinzer was murdered, and Nine was sentenced as his murderer. Everyone in Cartesio knows that.
Although life goes on, it seems the town of Cartesio isn't going to forget the tourists' transgressions. Not only they commited larceny in the cinema, they also murdered and executed in their town! It's no surprise their hospitality towards the visitors has cooled down considerably.
Not only they're maintaining a tense cordiality with them, they also have started talking behind the visitors' backs. All kinds of rumors are starting to sprout, yet nobody seems to be willing to say it to the tourists' faces. Talking directly to most passerby makes them distrustful, and nobody seems to want to be in close quarters alone with them.
It's only matter of time before the relationship between tourists and Cartesio starts degrading even further.
In the lobby of the motel there's a few more brochures, and
the maps have been updated once again.

post execution
but maybe dazai can tell how much just one kill wore him down. he doesn't know what to say at this moment, because-- what is the right thing to say? how should they act? ]
Got anything planned for today?
[ oda decides to ignore the elephant in the room for now. and he hopes that dazai won't bring it up either, just for the sake of making things less tense. ]

[Because let's be honest. He's more worried about you than he is about himself. But no, he won't drag you into that conversation. He knows that Oda knows well enough what he has to say. So--!! Better things.]
It looks like there are some new buildings on the map today.
no subject
[ eat lunch, smoke a cigarette or seven, and exist.
that said, he tilts his head when dazai mentions the new places ]
Really? What buildings?
no subject
Hmm, well-- a break is important every now and then.
[He'll support your choices, as long as you take care of yourself.]
There's a few, including some abandoned buildings. But there's also a graveyard, a church and an ice cream parlor.
[Here, let him show you!]
no subject
[ well, oda's not one for sweets, but he doesn't doubt that dazai will probably drag him there one day. and, if they don't hate him, maybe he can also take sakura or millium there, too. ]
You're gonna investigate the abandoned building?
no subject
[He'll be making sure you get out, you sure bet he will.]
I thought it might be fun. There might be something useful there at least. I'll let you know later what I find.
