Well then, that is definitely not what Dazai was expecting - which is at least 50% on himself, but it is what it is. Staying in shadows and out of sight as he studies the crowd in the agreed upon location at lunchtime, at first he thinks that the other person simply didn't take the bait. That's fine, really: it's a shame, and it will now be extra unwise for Dazai to see if I can't find out what the kappas are up to, but there's nothing truly lost in the end: he's got nothing but guesswork to go on, and really, even if the kappas want to enact a bloody power coup or something, why should Dazai care? ... Apart from the fact that it's technically his job, that is.
The young man with flowing robes is an outlier in the scenery, though - less for the long hair and flowing robes as such, and more because of... a combination of that and his body language? - which is enough for Dazai to take a closer look. Too late to save all the cucumber salad for the kappas, though... Oh, well. Who knows if they like their cukes salad'ed, anyway?]
