When Yahai Riho returned to the detective agency, the members had already left work at this time.

But because today's matter still needs to be dealt with follow-up, and other organizations need to be contacted, so they are currently working overtime.

Of course, except Edogawa Ranpo.

But for some reason, the other party did not leave either. The brown felt hat that was originally worn on the head had been taken off and put aside, the soft black hair was hanging down limply, lying on the table as if in a daze, until Yakai Riho came in Then he turned his gaze to her.

"Are you okay?"

Yosano Akiko put down the pen in her hand and looked at the silent black-haired girl.

After all, the other party's preoccupied appearance is quite worrying.

"Ok?"

Mihai Riho came back to her senses, then shook her head.

"I'm fine, sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's okay, just to help with some documents."

Yosano Akiko shook the document in his hand.

"Speaking of which, didn't Dazai come back?"

Yakai Riho suddenly found this problem after looking around.

"No."

Tanizaki Junichiro took the time to answer, the pen in his hand was almost drawing afterimages.

"Did you catch the last one too? Well, well, I understand, it's been hard work..."

After Kunikida Doppo hung up the Heroes Association, he gritted his teeth while writing the report and said, "That guy probably stayed outside because he wanted to escape his job."

"Don't mind him."

Yosano Akiko didn't care about this guy who disappeared every two days and had an extremely strong vitality.

"Compared to this, that over there is more worrying..."

She gestured to the black-haired young man who had been silent all this time, and sighed, not understanding what was going on with Edogawa Ranpo, who was always full of energy.

"It's been like this since you left."

Yakai Riho was just about to go over to ask, when she saw the other party stand up suddenly, and then said loudly, "I'm going back first!"

Everyone watched in a daze as the black-haired young man grabbed the hat on the table and rushed to the door, then slammed on the brakes to open the door to leave, and finally came to his senses.

"Wait! Mr. Ranpo, you don't know the way!"

Yakai Riho didn't know if it was his own illusion, the moment the eyes met just now, the other party seemed to be hiding from him.

"Forget it, let's go back too." Yosano Akiko stood up and said to her, "I'm already very tired today."

Yakai Riho let out a slightly dull 'ah', and then packed up her things.

On the way back together, she suddenly thought of a question——

Speaking of...

Now that the danger has been lifted, does that mean she can leave the detective agency and go back?

After returning to the dormitory, Yakai Riho lay down on the tatami for a while, and then slowly prepared to wash up.

The wound on his body was still aching, but it was nothing compared to others.

The image of Fushimi Saruhiko holding her to death in his arms when the building collapsed and the expression on his face before leaving at night continued to emerge in his mind...

On this night, she dreamed about things from a long time ago.

So long that those memories that I thought I had forgotten long ago——

She recalled the scene when she first met Fushimi Saru Hiko and Hatta Misaki. It was a very old-fashioned hero who saved the beauty, but both heroes were a bit strange. He has no desire to speak, and looks impatient;

I also remembered that the three of them went to the game hall together. Misaki Hatta taught her through Fushimi Saruhiko while disliking her technical skills. Mouth, in the end the two of them passed the test together.

I also remembered that after visiting the shrine, Hatta Misaki gritted her teeth and looked at the big culprit in her hand. what is it...

In her sleep, Yakai Riho vaguely heard her cell phone ringing, but because she was too sleepy, she ignored it.

Then the next day she saw the text message on her phone.

[Osamu Dazai: The night at the beach is very beautiful. ]

what happened?

Send this kind of news at night.

At this moment, Yakai Riho's phone rang suddenly.

——The contact person is Tsunayoshi Sawada.

Mihai Riho thought of what Rokudoku said yesterday about the complete confrontation between Peng Lie and the Black Organization.

Although she didn't know much about the war between the mafia, it shouldn't be resolved so quickly.

Call yourself now...

"Good morning, Riho."

The voice on the other side of the phone was as clean and gentle as ever, as if it hadn't been affected by the battle at all.

"Good morning, Sawada-kun."

Yakai Riho got up from the bed and opened the window, fresh air rushed in.

Two little birds stood on the pole outside, chirping once or twice from time to time.

"I was wondering if it would disturb you so early."

Sawada Tsunayoshi's voice seemed to have a slight smile.

"But it looks like it's about time."

"After coming to the detective agency, my schedule is very regular."

Yakai Riho watched the two birds chirping and pecking each other's feathers from time to time.

"And we're lying on the bed, we're not the same."

After she finished speaking, she paused for a moment, realizing something was wrong, and added another sentence.

"At least before."

Now, as the leader of the mafia, it should be impossible for the other party to stay in bed.

"Well, I sometimes want to stay in bed now." Tsunayoshi Sawada responded while processing the documents in his hand, "It's just that there is no way around Reborn."

And only his tutor, the world's number one killer, Reborn, dared to use guns, bombs, hammers and other methods to get him up to deal with things every morning. He felt that sooner or later he would be bald at an early age.

"Is there anything to contact me at this time?"

Yakai Riho lay on the window sill and watched the little birds moving around on the telegraph pole. It didn't look very good, but she just let her eyes find a foothold at random.

"Liu Dao Mu said that Peng Lie has already confronted the Black Organization."

"Well, thanks to Dazai-san for the information."

Sawada Tsunayoshi put away the smile on his face, looked at the information about the black organization in his hand, and frowned slightly.

Are there too many undercover agents in this organization?

fbi, cia, mi6, csis, bnd, Japanese public security...

Even that absinthe stance is a little unclear.

I couldn't help but start thinking about whether the black organization was developed by these undercover agents from all over the world. Tsunayoshi Sawada rubbed his temples, put aside the unreliable guesses in his head, and asked instead: "Did you get injured yesterday?"

"I am fine."

Yakai Riho withdrew her gaze and looked at the bandaged wound on her arm.

"Likudaoku rushed over in time, and it was Fushimi-kun who was injured."

"It's that scepter4's..."

Sawada Tsunayoshi's informants naturally have these materials.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Speaking of which, I remembered something from my childhood a few days ago."

He changed the subject and softened his expression.

"And the guard you made for me."

"Guardian?"

Yakai Riho was stunned for a moment, and then came to her senses.

"That, you still remember."

Suddenly I was a little ashamed. Now that I think about it, I was really naive and naive at the time, but I did sincerely regard the other party as my friend, but now...

"of course I remember."

Sawada Tsunayoshi curled his lower lip, and then remembered the photo frame he saw ten years later.

"I just didn't expect it to become like this now."

Mihai Riho has a strange sense of right and wrong.

"I didn't expect that you, who was chased by a chihuahua and made you cry, would become the boss of the largest mafia in Italy."

Sawada Tsunayoshi put down his pen, dumbfounded, and concentrated on the phone.

"You don't have to remember this kind of thing, even I would be ashamed."

Yakai Riho couldn't help laughing.

She thought of the young Tsunakichi Sawada who was chased by the Chihuahua and tried desperately to climb up the electric pole, but his face turned red and he failed, and a milky white puppy next to him was still barking at him.

I was shocked when I saw myself on the way to school with my schoolbag on my back.

After seeing her, the other party finally couldn't help crying because of embarrassment.

"Go, go..."

I, who had just moved to Namorimo at that time, picked up a branch and tried to drive the puppy away.

Although she likes fluffy dogs, she is also afraid of those particularly fierce dogs, regardless of their size.

After meeting her, the vicious-looking little Chihuahua stopped barking, wagged its tail twice, and left.

"Okay, come down."

She looked at the brown-haired boy who finally relaxed because the chihuahua had left, and collapsed on the ground, without laughing.

It's kind of funny though, but it's wrong to laugh at people.

Especially when the other party is scared like this.

She watched the other party silently sobbing for a while, then looked at his schoolbag, and finally looked at the time.

"If you don't go to school, you will be late."

"Hey hey hey! I know!"

The brown-haired boy got up from the ground in a panic.

"That, thank you!"

"Wipe it off."

She still couldn't look at those brown eyes full of tears, handed over a tissue, and then went to school.

And the other party followed carefully and silently all the way.

Later, I found out that he was the child of the next door, named Tsunayoshi Sawada, and the neighbor was a very gentle and lovely woman named Nana Sawada, who was different from the bold and straightforward Auntie Bakugo, but they both took special care of themselves.

The other party would always touch his head and say, "Risui is so amazing." "I heard from Akatsuki that you helped him again, thank you." Amusement park tickets, how lucky', and always invite myself to her house for dinner, and make all kinds of small biscuits for myself.

What surprised her was that, for some reason, the chihuahua on the way to school was particularly keen on Tsunayoshi Sawada.

"Why are you being chased by the Chihuahua again..."

Looking at the familiar scene in front of her, she couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth.

"I don't know why, why I keep chasing me..."

Sawada Tsunayoshi lay on the edge of the wall trembling with despair on his face.

With complicated emotions, she drove the puppy away again, and looked up at the brown-haired boy who was crying into tears.

"Okay, come down."

However, the other party did not move, and after sobbing for a while, he said aggrievedly: "I, I can't get down..."

How did you get up there just now?

A question mark slowly popped in my heart.

In the end, I asked the nearby adults to help.

"Sorry……"

Sawada Tsunayoshi was crying as he followed her.

"Anyway, our way to school is the same every day, do you want to walk together?"

She just said this sentence casually, but the other party showed a surprised expression like a pie from the sky, and then was timid again.

"That, is it really possible?"

Mihai Riho was a little weird.

"It's just going to school together, there's nothing wrong with it."

Is this something to be very happy about?

She thought about it.

Maybe it's because you don't have to worry about being chased by Chihuahuas after going to school.

Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was leaning on the back of the chair, also remembered the past.

When I was a child, what I was most afraid of was the Chihuahua. He always thought it was a big monster on the way to school.

Until Yakai Riho invited herself to go to school together, at that time, I felt that the little girl with twin ponytails and baby fat on her face was shining like an angel.

Rather than not being chased by a Chihuahua, I am more happy that my peers have offered me a hand for the first time, because everyone else laughed at "Waste Material Gang" while watching him crying and being chased.

Obviously he was a little scared, but he always acted calm and nothing to be afraid of in front of him.

Protecting him time and time again, helping him get rid of the chihuahua that is staring at him.

"Rio."

Sawada Tsunayoshi collected his thoughts and called the other party's name again.

"Do you want to go to the shrine to pay homage together during Chinese New Year this year?"

Although it will take some time for the black organization to be completely resolved, it should be able to be resolved before the end of the year with a little extra work.

"When the time comes, go back with Uncle Mi Hai."

He remembered that in the past four years, Keigo Mikai had only gone back once.

"The house you used to live in is still there, and you can move in at any time."

In fact, it had already been taken over by someone, but it was bought again after I recovered my memory.

Yakai Riho was silent for a while and said, "It's not necessary."

She had thought about whether her father rarely came back during the Chinese New Year because she was too indifferent, but she was not particularly happy, it was just that there were more people in the family, and there were strange courtesy to each other that did not belong to father and daughter.

"And Aunt Nana probably doesn't remember me either."

The seven-year-old is the dividing point of the different world lines, and the latter belong to the time range that needs to clear bugs.

In the world line of Tsunayoshi Sawada, he was attacked when he was seven years old, and his mother died as a result. Then he was taken to Italy overnight by Peng Lie, and was sent to Namori Town after the incident was over. He was also an outside consultant of the Sawada family. It's next to Hikari's house, so Nana Sawada probably doesn't remember herself anymore.

"But Mommy will love you."

Sawada Tsunayoshi closed his eyes, his gentle voice made people feel extremely trustworthy.

"Sawada-kun."

Yakai Riho put away her previous relaxed mood, she knew what the other party meant.

"I can't go back."

"I am very grateful to Auntie Nana for taking care of me before."

It seems that I am always being taken care of by others, and I have accepted the kindness of many people.

"But, there's no need to bother."

She has no plans to return to Namorimachi.

"Please give my regards to Aunt Nana."

"Just treat it as someone who was helped by her before."

"It doesn't matter if you forget, don't think about it."

The two little birds on the telegraph pole had already flown away at some point.

The warm sunlight coming in through the windows was a little too harsh.
