Lost Lord Ranbu

"Sorry, Andy, it's closed today."

"and many more--"

Seeing that Oda Sakunosuke was about to close the door again, Andawa quickly held the door with his hand, and stuck the door with his strength.

Andawa has always been strong, and he didn't bother to understand what Oda Sakunosuke said, so he said without thinking that he is closed today, who knows what he is going to do.Today is Sunday, which office will be closed today?And they closed the door as soon as they saw him, which didn't look like an ordinary closed door.

"I have something to do with Edogawa," Andeva said.

Oda Sakunosuke couldn't make decisions instead of Ranpo, he glanced back at the detective in the office, meaning to let the people inside decide.As soon as he loosened his strength, Andeva pushed the door open.

"Edogawa, open the door!"

The person in charge of the Portmaffia Detective Agency is sitting at his desk. He reaches out and pushes a pair of black-framed glasses to the bridge of his nose. When he opens his emerald green eyes and looks at him through the lens, he really has the meaning of being a serious detective. .

"Ok?"

He saw the boy with red and white hair, and the boy also saw him.

"I'm not interested in bringing up children." Luanbu said this, before Andeva could express his dissatisfaction, he said again, "Well, the detective agency still lacks a handyman to serve a famous detective, let your son come in. "

Andrew was very angry.

What is "a handyman who serves a famous detective"?

If it wasn't because he was very busy recently, he wouldn't have brought his son to others.Edogawa Ranpo has a perverse personality, but at any rate there are some real materials, and the location of the detective agency is right under his nose, protected by professional heroes and the police.Picking and picking, sending Jiao Dong to the detective agency to spend this week is the best choice he can make.

But now that Luanbu said that, Andeva was a little reluctant.

This is the proudest son of his Andewa, and he will definitely become a famous hero in the future. How can he casually give others the present?He sent his son here to let him learn detective skills, not to do chores.

"Okay, you can go." Luanbu waved his hand.

"you--"

Before Andawa finished speaking, Oda Sakunosuke supported the door frame with one hand, and stood in front of him with a strong attitude, as if encountering an enemy burglarizing and a security guard stepped forward to stop him.

What's even more exasperating is that before his outburst had time to erupt, his son slipped under Oda Sakunosuke's arm and greeted the person inside with a calm expression: "Excuse me."

"Frozen--"

"boom!"

The doors of the detective agency are closed again.

Oda Sakunosuke is a sincere person, pure and unaffected, such a person obviously doesn't know how to give others face, and Ranpo, who is already in a high position, doesn't know even more.The two of them gave Andeva a closed door, and they didn't think there was anything surprising about it. On the contrary, Hong Jiaodong who was admitted was a little emotional.

The young man just kept calm on the surface, but he thought a lot about this detective agency in his heart—without background and strength, how could he let Andeva down?And if this detective agency has no ability at all, Andeva will never let him come here.

Oda Sakunosuke handed him a bottle of juice. Due to Ranpo's preference, there are only beverage reserves here, and there is no tea for guests.

Hong Jiaodong was stunned for a moment, then took it over and thanked him.

"Are you Andawa's son?" Oda Sakunosuke asked.

"..."

The boy was silent.

"Isn't it obvious at a glance, but he probably wouldn't want to hear Andeva's name. Well, coincidentally, I don't like it either! So the name Andeva is here—" Luanbu held up his hand arm, "Forbidden!"

It's not a day or two since Ranpo doesn't like Andawa, Oda Sakunosuke has long been used to it.

However, he did not expect that the relationship between Andeva and his son could be so bad.Luanbu's few words can already reflect many things, and even his name cannot be mentioned in front of him. How far can a father and son make such a mess?

Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help thinking of the children he adopted. Although the children were indeed naughty, they were very sensible most of the time, and even Xingsuke, who was in the rebellious period, did not turn against him.By the way, during the time he was away, the children should be fine, right?The only thing to worry about is Kosuke who became a mafia...

He was distracted for a moment, and Ranbu had already chatted with the boy.

"Young man, what is your name?"

"Boom and freeze."

"Oh! Then I'll make you freeze."

"Ah." Hong Jiaodong nodded.

Ranpo smiled and said to him: "I am Edogawa Ranpo, please remember well."

"Yes, Mr. Ranpo." Hong Jiao Dong replied.

Use the other person's first name instead of the surname, and add the title of "Sir", which is kind and respectful. This is Hong Jiaodong's response to Ranbu calling him "Jiaodong".It's not so much to get closer to the detective, it's better to say that both of them have the idea of ​​"I will be with whoever doesn't like Andeva".

"This is Oda Sakunosuke, Oda Sakunosuke, my life assistant." Ranpo pointed to Oda Sakunosuke beside him.

"Oda..." Hong Jiaodong hesitated for a moment, "Mr. Oda Saku?"

"My surname is Oda." Oda Sakunosuke explained.

At the beginning, it was Dazai who called "Oda Tsukuru" first. It is quite distinctive to pronounce the name broken up like this. Later, Ranpo followed suit and called Oda Tsukuru.Except for these two people, no one would call him "Oda Saku".

After both sides introduced themselves, there was nothing more to say. Oda Sakunosuke seldom opened his mouth, and Hong Jiaodong was even more silent. The only talkative Ranpo was holding his glasses, not knowing what he was thinking.But there is no doubt that among the three, Ranbu is the dominant one, and both Hong Jiaodong and Oda Sakunosuke paid him half-hearted attention.

After a while, Ranbu tapped the frame with his fingers and took off the glasses.Hong Jiaodong thought that he had something to tell him, so he couldn't help but sit up straight and looked towards Luanbu.

Unexpectedly, after Luanbu put away his glasses, he opened the drawer, took out two boxes of French fries, and "teared" them apart to keep them close at hand.Then, he leaned back casually, put his legs on the desk, and kicked over the entrusted documents on the desk.

Holding the juice in his hand, Hong Jiaodong stayed for a while before asking: "Is there nothing to do for the detective agency?"

"Huh?" Ranpo replied casually, "It's okay. Didn't Odasaku just say that we are closed today?"

"I see." Hong Jiaodong nodded.

If it were someone else of the same age who was here, it would definitely be to make a fuss for the limelight, to ask for a job that can prove his strength, and so on.But Hong Jiaodong was not that type of person. Although he was a little puzzled by the behavior of the detective agency, he accepted the arrangement calmly and sat on the sofa in a daze.

After Luanbo finished eating a box of French fries, he realized that he seemed to have something to do, put his legs back, sat up straight and looked at Oda Sakunosuke: "Oda Saku, are you going to go shopping? ?”

"Do you need to buy anything?" Hong Jiaodong, who was conscious of doing odd jobs, asked proactively.

Oda Sakunosuke tidied up the desk that was messed up by Ranpo, and said to him simply: "I can go alone."

The purchases that Ranpo was talking about naturally did not refer to daily necessities and snacks, but the ammunition backup of Oda Sakunosuke.

Oda Sakunosuke only has one magazine on his body, and there are eleven bullets left. It is hard to say whether he can rely on firearms when encountering enemies.He had planned to buy ammunition before, but the detective agency had a lot of work, and with the fact that Ranpo had been walking too frequently with the police recently, he hadn't had time to find the dark threads in the city.

What a good place to buy ammunition, good and bad people are mixed together, he thinks that Luanbu should not go there, it is easy to encounter danger.As for Hong Jiaodong, he is not yet an adult, he is just a child, so he should not be exposed to these things.

"Stay here with Ranpo, don't let him go out casually, and don't let people come in casually." Oda Sakunosuke finished speaking to Toko Jiaodong, then turned to Ranpo and told him, "Police officer Tsukauchi said that Kukumiko escaped from prison yesterday. , you have to be careful."

"I don't want it." Luanbu jumped off the chair, patted the snack crumbs on his body, and wiped his face casually, "A detective decided to find a business."

Business?

what business.

Didn't you see that the customers who came to make an appointment are all scheduled for the next month?

Oda Sakunosuke knew that Ranbu had his own ideas, and he couldn't stop him, but he didn't intend to take Hong Jiaodong to that kind of place, and he also directly expressed his meaning: "Boom, let's go out for a while." Come on, please stay here and watch the door."

"No, I think..."

Hong Jiao Dong, who was excluded, frowned slightly.

Ranbu suddenly said: "If you want to go, let him go together, don't you want to learn something? Since you want to learn from Lord Ranbu, of course you have to learn more..."

Hong Jiaodong nodded honestly.

Oda Sakunosuke: "..."

study what?

Do you want to learn from mafia cadres?

Oda Sakunosuke vaguely saw the shadow of Xingsuke from Toroko Dong, he looked like an honest boy, he would find a good job in the future, and he must not be curious about industries that he shouldn't be curious about.

"Forget it, Ranpo." Oda Sakunosuke said.

"Ah, let's talk—" Ranpo raised his voice, interrupting Oda Sakunosuke's words.It can be seen that he has no intention of accepting Oda Sakunosuke's opinion at all, and if he hears it, he will treat it as if he didn't hear it.The detective strolled over to Hong Jiaodong, and handed him a bottle of marble soda, "Here, help me to ice it."

Hong Jiaodong took the soda subconsciously, activated his ice-type personality, quickly lowered the temperature of the soda, and then returned the chilled soda to Ranbu.

"It's very good, Jiao Dong." Luanbu praised the boy with a smile.

Hong Jiaodong replied nonchalantly, "It's a little effort."

The attitude shown by Ranpo is already very clear, he wants to bring Hong Jiao Dong with him, and he doesn't want Sakunosuke Oda to raise negative opinions.

But Oda Sakunosuke was still a little hesitant. He felt that it was not appropriate to bring Toro Jiao Dong with him, not only because Tomo Jiao Dong was young, but also because his father was the No.2 Flame Hero Andeva.Taking people to such a place without authorization, and being discovered by others that the detective agency is not only doing business for heroes, but even accepting business for enemies, what will the hero think?

"Odasaku—"

The surrounding air seemed to cool down.

The black-haired detective had already walked to the door, slightly turned his expressionless half face, the pupils in his slender eyes shone with emerald green and cold luster.

Oda Sakunosuke didn't say a word, but he obviously understood what he meant.

He and Dazai are friends, and he is also friends with Ranpo, but no matter what, these two people are big figures at the cadre level.In the highly hierarchical port mafia, he couldn't refuse cadres.

From Hong Jiaodong's point of view, this kind of aura is completely different from the casual detective before, and he moved a little uneasily.

But soon, the unbearable atmosphere dissipated.

The black-haired detective smiled again, and he waved his hand: "Don't worry, nothing will happen, I just went to see if there are any potential customers. With Oda Saku, we shouldn't let us see any children A scene that shouldn't be seen?"

Hong Jiaodong looked bewildered.

Oda Sakunosuke: "...Ah."
