Lost Lord Ranbu

Ranpo wants to start a detective agency in his own world, and the armed detective agency in the main world is an excellent reference.He has already obtained Fukuzawa Yukichi's consent. During this period of time, he can observe the daily work of the Armed Detective Agency for reference.

For this matter, Fukuzawa Yukichi also considered many aspects.

On the one hand, he feels that Luanbu can have a brighter life, instead of spending his whole life in the port mafia, he can get out of the quagmire and set up a detective agency, which can be regarded as having a serious career.

On the other hand, they think that Ranpo needs friends, and it is great to have someone who can talk to him. After all, no matter who "Edogawa Ranpo" is, as long as he is still a human being, he has been isolated from the world. will feel lonely.

So in the next few days, everyone in the Armed Detective Agency can always see two Mr. Ranpo going in and out together closely, and they are followed by the double black combination of the former port mafia—although they are not the same The original configuration of the world, but the span of the two worlds obviously cannot prevent Osamu Dazai and Nakahara Chuya from quarreling.

Even the last time they teamed up to solve Fyodor, the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia never got along so harmoniously.

For a while, the Armed Detective Agency was very lively.

Under the influence of the Holy Grail crisis, the forces in Yokohama are all united.With the guarantee of support from all sides, the Holy Grail extermination battle a few days later seemed as simple as smashing a glass. At least there was no tension in the Armed Detective Agency before the war.

It seems that everyone is happy.

However, they obviously reassured too early——

There is actually no essential difference between the detectives of the Armed Detective Agency and the cadres of the Port Mafia, but the biggest difference between them is the environment in which they grew up.

While the detective willingly accepted Fukuzawa Yukichi's discipline, the cadre was still making a living in the port mafia.

At that time, the leader of the previous generation was still in power, and he acted in a brutal style. Ranpo, who was sent by Mori Ogai to serve as an outpost, relied on his talents to break into the interior and gained the trust of the leader as a military adviser.

Genius' unlovable character is regarded by the suspicious leader as straightforwardness without ambition. In addition, Luanpo has no supernatural powers, let alone physical skills to protect himself. He only wants to exchange his mind for the help of the port mafia. Protection, the leader thought he was a "controllable" object, so within two months Luanbu was on the rise in the organization.

Such an experience may seem simple, but if you think about it carefully, it contains countless risks.

If the hostile forces robbed and killed Ranpo in order to retaliate against the port mafia; , and don't want him to be used by other organizations...

As long as one wrong step, he will be swallowed by darkness.

In the dark age of the previous leader's rule, human life would only wither away silently in the night.This has nothing to do with intelligence, and in front of the cold muzzle, it is just a matter of a bullet.

Mori Ogai thought a lot, he was still hesitating to make a decision, Ranpo saw his hesitation, and offered to meet the leader.

Of course, their plan succeeded in the end.

All in all, Luanbu who grew up in this environment has been more or less affected. I don't know if this influence is good or bad, but it is undoubtedly a quality that the "righteous school" does not appreciate or approve of.

Of course, the people from the Armed Detective Agency were right. Ranpo was indeed working hard to resolve this matter. He was friendly to the Armed Detective Agency and would not lie about intelligence.

but--

He will selectively conceal part of the truth.

He didn't mean it, he just didn't think it was necessary to say it.

If you say it, you will be scolded, but if you don't say it, it will have no effect.It's like a child took out a failed test paper, and he has already told his parents that the test paper is a failure, so why bother to say whether he got 59 points or [-] points in the test, since he failed anyway.

This time, he told Fukuzawa Yukichi openly that he "guarantees that there will be no future troubles", but actually?

As long as the Holy Grail is destroyed, the singularity will disappear, people's memories will be tampered with, and all losses caused by the singularity will be reduced to the category that ordinary people can understand.That is to say, even if all the human beings in Yokohama were extinct, they could all be explained as earthquake casualties in the end.

Of course, it's not as bad as when all the members are wiped out, and Ranpo is naturally sure to control the Holy Grail.

The only thing to worry about is that after the Holy Grail is destroyed, the excess magic power contained inside will pour down, and those substances like black mud will burn the earth.

For Dazai who holds the "book", this level should not be a problem, as long as he finishes well, there will be no casualties.At most, the building of the headquarters of the port mafia needs to be redecorated. Afterwards, it is very likely that the news will become "Mori Co., Ltd. is on fire" or something like that... As for the size of the fire, it depends on Dazai's intentions.

"It feels like the detective agency has no business."

"That's something that can't be helped, after all, the whole of Yokohama is blocked."

"Ugh, even the snacks can't be brought in."

"The only thing that is busy now is the Ability and Special Affairs Department..."

The team of the Armed Detective Agency used to go to the whirlpool cafe downstairs to have something to eat at noon, and today is no exception.

The owner of the coffee shop is an elegant man who has been studying coffee for 30 years. Even after washing his hands with soap, the aroma of coffee remains on his hands.He has long been used to people from the armed detective agency coming to his door, and he is ready to receive guests every day.

However, there is one more guest today——

"Hi, Miss Hongye." Luanbu raised his hand and waved.

A woman in kimono with a red umbrella stood at the door. She gracefully raised her sleeves to cover the lower half of her face, revealing only a pair of beautiful red eyes with a bright red mark at the corner of her eyes.

Nakahara Chuya looked out the door: "Sister Hongye?"

"Oh, I'm not that old yet." Koyo Ozaki, one of the five cadres of the port mafia, put away the red umbrella and walked in with small steps.

Originally, the cadres of the Port Mafia came to the Armed Detective Agency. Others should feel vigilant, but the current situation is that there are two cadres of the Port Mafia in this cafe, and one who broke away from the Port Mafia, And previously claimed to be the youngest cadre in history.

After the two worlds can communicate with each other, you can see the cadres of the port mafia running all over the street, and it doesn't matter if there is one more Koyo Ozaki.

Moreover, Ozaki Koyo was captured by the Armed Detective Agency in the recent combination incident, and stayed in the Armed Detective Agency for a period of time. The two parties are currently in a state of cooperation, so everyone does not have much rejection of Ozaki Koyo's arrival.

The store manager was still grinding the coffee beans in a stable manner, and the relaxed and cozy atmosphere in the cafe did not change in the slightest because of the arrival of Ozaki Momiji.

Edogawa Ranpo looked at Ozaki Hongye, then lay down again, and lazily ordered to the clerk: "Please have a sweet curry rice~"

"I also want."

"Ah, another cup of coffee."

Zhong Yuanzhong also felt that this group of people was too comfortable.

"Miss Hongye is looking for Mr. Ranpo, right? Sit here." Nakahara Nakaya stepped aside so that Ozaki Koyo could take a seat at Ranpo's table, and he himself sat on a separate bar chair in front of the bar, listening sideways. They talk.

Koyo Ozaki's eyes wandered between the two Edogawa Ranpo for a moment, and finally stopped on the face of the cadre in black, and greeted with a smile: "Good day. I have met you at the headquarters before. , although it's not from the same world...huh?"

"You can just call me Luanbu, sister Hongye." Luanbu treated her very kindly.

The two are actually the same age, but compared to Ranpo's childishness, Ozaki Momiji appears very calm.Not to mention Nakahara, he joined the port mafia, and the senior who first led him to familiarize himself with the life of the organization was Koye Ozaki. He respected the only older woman among the cadres.

"Mr. Mori asked you to come?" Ranbu said straightforwardly, "Ask me when I will be a guest of the Port Mafia?"

"The leader welcomes visitors from another world. If you are willing to go, of course you will be treated like a cadre." Koye Ozaki replied evasively.

"I'm not interested. No matter where I go, I have to work. I've entered a period of burnout recently..." Ranbu propped his chin and continued, "It's not a mandatory order anyway, Mr. Nasen must have said, 'If Luanbu If you don’t want to come, at least you have to bring Chuya-kun back.” That’s why Hongye-san came to pick Hat-kun home.”

Koyo Ozaki raised her eyebrows in surprise. It seems that Edogawa Ranpo knows Mori Ogai better than she imagined.

"Speaking of which, it's about time." As Ranpo said, he took out a thick mystery novel from under the seat and put it on the table, and pushed it to Koye Ozaki, "Here, the hat-kun is here. Let him take it back. Dazai will discuss the specific action strategy with him."

The Dazai he mentioned was naturally not Osamu Dazai of the Armed Detective Agency, but Dazai, a cadre who was currently a guest of the port mafia.

Thinking of the tense atmosphere within the Port Mafia these days, Koyo Ozaki couldn't help but sigh.

She could tell that Mori Ogai was very afraid of Osamu Dazai.

I don't know how Dazai from another world was able to sit in the position of a cadre like a rock for several years. After getting along these few days, even Koyo Ozaki thinks that Dazai from another world already has the capital to usurp the throne, but he still only wants to Said he was a cadre running errands.

As for the grievances between Ryunosuke Akutagawa and Atsushi Nakajima, needless to say, every minute of the quarrel seems to be from the demolition office, and the assassin Kyoka Izumi adds fuel to the fire.Taking a step back, Akutagawa Ryunosuke can fight himself, what else can't they do?

It can only be said that the troublemakers were left in the port mafia.

Mori Ogai suspected more than once that this was a conspiracy by Osamu Dazai, and brought this group of people around in front of him every day, was it just to let him experience the feeling of having these talents?

No, Dazai just wanted him to be bald.

Otherwise, why not leave Edogawa Ranpo to him?
