Lost Lord Ranbu

Speaking of the origin of this pair of black-rimmed glasses, it was brought back from Conan by Luanbu. It was originally developed by Dr. A Li and was one of Conan's detective props.

Dazai modified it, adding the function of cross-world communication to the original positioning, search, mirror display and other functions, and it became a necessary "detective tool" for Ranpo to contact others in different worlds.

Ranpo had used it a few times in other worlds before, and apart from asking Dazai to send him back, there were not many opportunities for Ranpo to use it. More often, Dazai asked him for a plan to deal with the Russians.

Now, this prop comes in handy.

It's just that in the eyes of the armed detective agency and others in this world, the function of this pair of glasses is not so simple-yes, that's right, this must be a special prop for Mr. Ranpo in another world to release his reasoning power!Once you put it on, it is equivalent to unlocking the shackles, which is a sign that Mr. Ranpo is serious!

They also heard the secrets of the detective agency when it was established, so they believed in the fact that Ranpo had a "special item" given by someone.But for Osamu Dazai, who has more information, the focus of attention is not only on the glasses.

The question he was thinking about was, who gave this pair of glasses?

This Edogawa Ranpo was not the famous detective they knew, and the communication between the president and him also proved this point.In other words, Mr. Ranpo has never met Fukuzawa Yukichi.Judging from the importance of the president of this world to Mr. Ranpo, Mr. Ranpo in this parallel world obviously lacks a key person responsible for guiding him.

So, who replaced Fukuzawa Yukichi and formed a partner with Ranpo?

Is it the "Dazai Osamu" of the parallel world?

No, the age and time are not right, and Mr. Ranpo's attitude towards himself is not as eager as he is towards the president.

According to what Mr. Ranpo said to Sakunosuke Oda just now, the glasses were given to him by Osamu Dazai in the parallel world. It seems that glasses are obviously not the key props that Mr. Ranpo cares about, so this question is put aside for the time being.

Is it Odasaku?

It can be seen from Mr. Ranpo's attitude that although he cares about Odasaku, he does not completely revolve around Odasaku's wishes. Even if he is murdered, he still expresses his opposition.Judging from Oda's self-reported experience, his assistant job seems to be only in charge of serving tea and water, and he should also be in charge of being a bodyguard at critical moments.

In short, it is probably similar to the model of the Armed Detective Agency, so Oda Tsukuru is excluded.

The only remaining candidates are...

Osamu Dazai's eyes were very indifferent, but the smile on his face did not change at all.

How should I put it, if it is that person, it is completely understandable why Mr. Ranpo is like this.

Anyway, that person doesn't know much about "normal education", at most he uses people as tools.As long as it is useful, even a dangerous child like Yumeno Hisaku will be kept by his side, and Mr. Ranpo is obviously much easier to coax than the mentally unstable Yumeno Hisaku.

In other words, to have a genius like Mr. Ranpo, that person might wake up with a smile from his dreams, right?

Osamu Dazai wondered whether "that person" would wake up from a dream with a smile. Anyway, a certain port mafia leader with Ranpo couldn't laugh.

Mori Ogai even had a nightmare for a while because of Ranpo's education problems-dreaming that Ranpo and Dazai joined forces to force him to become the emperor of Japan, and then Dazai came to power.

He thought it was not without reason that he always suspected that Dazai wanted to usurp the throne.

If he was really promoted to the position of emperor, then Dazai would definitely be the next head of the port mafia, wearing a red scarf and showing off in front of him, isn't this a nightmare scene?

Because of some unscientific folk saying, Mori Ogai, who was remembered by another Osamu Dazai, couldn't help but sneezed.

"It's disgusting, Rintaro."

Although she didn't see the snot flying out, Alice, the humanoid alien who was set to "hate Rintaro", still put on a disgusted expression. The blond girl in a dress even looked cute when she disliked others: "Obviously I am Did the doctor catch a cold? How bad Rintaro's medical skills must be."

"Don't say that, Alice-chan." Mori Ogai, who used to be a military doctor, rubbed his nose. In fact, he didn't feel that he had caught a cold, and he quickly moved to Alice's side with a shy face, "Actually Alice-chan is concerned about me, isn't she?"

"Who cares about you!" Alice pushed his head away, "You haven't finished reading the documents yet, so if you have time, hurry up and work!"

"Yes, there are jobs, jobs..." The leader of the port mafia muttered like an ordinary middle-aged man busy with work, and when he saw the pile of documents in front of him, he couldn't help but sighed deeply, "I Now I start to suspect that this is a conspiracy against me by Dazai-kun and Ranpo-kun."

Alice squinted at him.

"Hey, Alice Sauce." He complained with a mournful face, "Did they deliberately expand the port mafia like this, just to see my joke? Not long ago, I also got the right to navigate the port, although it is a big piece of fat. Wrong, but if the politicians don't handle it well, they will be called incompetent by their subordinates. What should I do, Alice-chan?"

Alice didn't take it seriously, she lay down on the carpet and drew graffiti on the paper with a crayon, and said to him: "Obviously Rin Taro himself is too ambitious, without your instruction, Brother Ranpo wouldn't be like this." How bold! Don’t you have to deal with so much work now? Doesn’t Rintaro deserve it?”

"Really?" Mori Ogai asked with a bitter face.

Alice drew a big ship on the paper, and then drew a few stick figures with black crayons, and drew a red crayon on the necks of several people, and the painting was completed.

In the final analysis, the humanoid superhuman ability is still made by the host. Alice represents the inner side of Mori Ogai, and the attitude she expressed is already obvious.

Mori Ogai always talks to Alice, which is actually a channel for him to talk to himself. This behavior pattern always makes other people look sideways.Because whether it's Alice's appearance as a young girl under 14 years old, or Alice's setting that hates Mori Ogai, it doesn't look like something normal people can do.

"Rin Taro is actually enjoying it, right?"

"That being said..." Mori Ogai sighed, "I'm very happy that my subordinates are capable, but the work is really too much, Dazai-kun is busy looking for Ranpo-kun again, I have dark circles under my eyes It's gone!"

He has more rights, he is happy, but at the same time, he has more responsibilities, and mental exhaustion is really exhausting.

You know, what he wants to maintain now is not just the stability of Yokohama. According to the size of the port mafia, what he wants to manage is the security of the whole of Japan!

If this continues, maybe one day I will die from overwork.Otherwise, I should retire early and find an orphanage incognito to be the director of the orphanage to do charity.The heights are overwhelming, and you spend half your life chasing vanity fairs, but in the end you want to live a mediocre life. Is this what a person with supreme power would think?

Mori Ogai looked at those documents and thought with some melancholy.

The communicator placed on the table rang, it was an internal dedicated line, and only high-level cadres could directly contact the chief's office.Mori Ogai connected the call with a sleepy expression: "Dazai-kun?"

The voice of his cadre Osamu Dazai came from the communicator: "Mr. Mori, I have already contacted Mr. Ranpo."

"Ranbu-jun has played enough, are you ready to come back?"

"No, there are still some things that have not been resolved."

Hearing his tone, Mori Ogai couldn't help sighing: "It seems to be a very troublesome matter... and then? Dazai-kun borrowed someone from me, isn't it a situation that even Chuya-kun can't handle this time?" ?”

"The main force this time can only rely on Zhongya, but now Zhongye is stumbling over trivial matters, and it is impossible for him to give up. If Mr. Mori's work is completed, I would be more than happy to invite you to see Zhongya in person. You're so stupid." Speaking of his emotional partner, even Osamu Dazai couldn't help but sigh.

How can anyone come to work for others in a hurry? Only the Central Plains can do this kind of stupid thing, right?

"That's a pity." Mori Ogai could probably guess what happened. He glanced at the thickness of the documents on the desk, and could only praise with a smile, "Nakaya-kun is very conscientious on weekdays."

"I'm here to ask you for permission. I'll take a few of the guerrillas there first." Dazai said bluntly, "As for the report on the parallel world, I have someone hand it over."

"I've seen it." Mori Ogai knocked on the kraft paper bag at hand, he had already opened it and read the contents, "Are you sure?"

After all, it was a major event concerning the whole of Yokohama, and he couldn't just ignore it.

At present, Yokohama has become a singularity, people outside cannot enter, and people inside cannot exit.After the Ability Secret Service Division contacted the port mafia, it is not a long-term solution to deal with the people with the official road control.

Dazai reported: "There is no problem within seven days. Mr. Ranpo is searching for the location of the Holy Grail. As long as the Holy Grail linking the two worlds can be destroyed, the next thing will be easy to deal with."

"Holy Grail..." Mori Ogai sighed.

"That prop has been polluted, even if it's fragments, it can't be taken back for collection, Mr. Mori." Dazai's tone turned cold.

"Of course I know." Mori Ogai put on a smirk habitually, "After all, it is a prop that can seduce even Ranpo-kun, and it is really dangerous to have a singularity just by touching it... Well, Dazai You have to trust me once in a while."

"That's not what Mr. Mori said when he was raising Q."

"Isn't there Dazai-kun here? Q is still controllable."

"..." Dazai was silent for a while, as if he didn't want to continue talking about this topic, because Mori Ogai would not listen to his opinion, "Since the leader agrees, then I will take the guerrillas out."

"I wish you prosperity in martial arts." Mori Ogai smiled.

Communication hangs up.
