Lost Lord Ranbu

Before the evening, Luanbu decided to return.

"Is the matter over?" Ozaki Koye confirmed to him.

"It's over, the next step is Dazai's business." Ranbu opened the car door and sat in, and answered her lazily.

Even if it seems to others that Ranpo didn't do anything, just spent three hours alone in the study of an ordinary family, but for Ozaki Koyo who has known Ranpo for ten years, these three hours are enough. The brains of the harbor mafia do a lot.

If it is said that the famous "Double Black" combination became famous because it destroyed an organization in one night, then Edogawa Ranpo's name is that during the reign of the former leader more than ten years ago, he did not leave his home. Hu relied on his ingenuity to deduce the weaknesses of all hostile organizations, commanded his subordinates to destroy all hostile organizations, and became famous.

Most people don't want to believe that ordinary people without supernatural powers can achieve such a miraculous state.

Therefore, there are also rumors on the road that Edogawa Ranpo actually has supernatural abilities that can strengthen thinking, but he is unwilling to be under the jurisdiction of the Supernatural Secret Service, so he says he has no supernatural abilities.

This statement is really funny in the eyes of insiders.

Koyo Ozaki admires Ranpo very much. It should be said that among the cadres of the port mafia, except for the cadre ace who relies on money to get in the position and is often humiliated in cadre meetings, no one will not admire Edogawa Ranpo .

It is not without reason that Osamu Dazai and Nakahara Nakahara, who are very majestic in the eyes of others, would call him "Mr. Ranpo" kindly and respectfully.Not only because Luanpo is an old-timer of the port mafia, but also because Luanpo does not rely on supernatural powers, and he is well-deserved unparalleled in the world only by intelligence.

Whether it's Dazai, Mori Ogai, or Fyodor who caused big trouble, they can be regarded as "smart people" in the eyes of the world, but they can't do it to the point of chaos.

There is no doubt that "seeing through the truth at a glance" is a talent that will make people with supernatural powers all over the world envy.

However, the fact that Ranpo is not on the same level of thinking as the world makes it impossible for others to understand what he is doing most of the time, but Koyo Ozaki believes he has a reason.

It may sound absurd, but in the perception of most port mafia, even if the cadre does nothing, lying in the office doing nothing all afternoon, this behavior is endowed with a unique deep meaning by wise men.

Since Ranpo said that today's work is over, and the rest will be handed over to Dazai, then this will definitely be the development after this incident.This is not a prophecy, but just relying on his own logic, inferring based on the existing facts, and finally came to an accurate conclusion - so far, what Luanbu said has not been missed.

This time Holmes didn't follow him into the car, and Luanbu didn't ask him what he was going to do next. The two looked at each other in a tacit understanding, showing mutual understanding.

Koyo Ozaki didn't even ask any questions, and asked the driver to drive away.

Now Conan truly believes that Holmes is not a member of the port mafia. Except for a slightly more friendly attitude towards Ranpo, Holmes is indifferent to everyone else, with a "don't care" from the inside out. Come and interrupt my thinking" feeling of rejection.

"Mr. Holmes?"

Holmes looked at him: "Although we have already guessed, it is better to make a confirmation at the end."

Conan's nerves were tense, and he was ready for possible problems.

Holmes: "What do you think of the writer Edogawa Ranpo?"

Conan: "... Huh?"

Conan has no idea why the other party asked this question, and the interaction between them is only a few hours today. Even if you want to ask Conan about "Edogawa Ranpo", it shouldn't be aimed at the writer Edogawa Luanbu, but it should be the cadre who left just now.

Conan has completely distinguished cadres with the same name and surname from literary giants.

It is true, although the two Edogawa Ranpo are basically related to the same body in another world, but apart from the same name, they are good at reasoning and love to read, there is almost no similarity.

This is probably because cadres are too childish and unwilling to be with ordinary people, which leads to a sense of separation between ideals and reality; while literary heroes have fallen from high places to low valleys, and have been struggling at the bottom for a period of time. For the secular, this is the only way to write such bizarre works.

What's more, cadres and writers, how could two people with completely different identities be related?

On the other hand, it is also because the cadres' random reasoning ability has surpassed the limit that people can imagine.

Even a writer who writes a mystery novel needs a long time to conceive. This is very different from seeing the truth at a glance. Who would know the ending written on the last page just by looking at the cover of a book?

Only Sherlock Holmes in the book can compare with him.

Conan thought he was right.

Having obtained the answer he wanted from Conan's reaction, Holmes stopped waiting for his answer.

Ranpo's guidance worked, and Restraint conceded the statement.

From then on, no one will link Wenhao with those peers that exist in reality, they will only think that it is a "code name" or an "accident" with the same name and surname.

In short, no one will pay attention to this aspect any more.

Holmes pondered for a moment, then added: "Taro Hirai is an interesting novelist."

Hirai Taro is the real name of the writer Edogawa Ranpo.

Conan, who has been a fan of mystery novels since he was a child, was not puzzled by Holmes' sudden change of address. He naturally formed an equation in his mind, replacing the famous writer Edogawa Ranpo mentioned by Holmes with the name "Hirai Taro". .

"I like Mr. Hirai's novels very much." Conan replied, and he was even a little proud to hear Holmes praise the Japanese writer.After finishing speaking, he added subtly, "Of course, my favorite is Conan Doyle—Mr. Holmes, do you know that you have the same name as the character in the novel?"

Even if some people don't know who Conan Doyle is, they have heard of Sherlock Holmes written by Conan Doyle.It is impossible for the British not to know the meaning of the name "Sherlock Holmes", but Mr. Holmes has such a name, and it is not a code name...Of course, it may be accidental, but how can temperament and mind explain it?

This man is full of puzzles, and Conan can't figure it out.

"To be precise, this is not a duplicate name." Holmes raised his eyebrows. "Sorry, I didn't mean to hide it. I am Holmes, as you understand."

Which one do I understand?

Conan was confused.

The concept of heroic spirits comes from Norse mythology. It is said that Valkyrie, the maid of Odin, will select brave warriors from the human battlefield and lead them into the Hall of Valor.

However, there are some differences between the Heroic Seat that actually exists in the world and the legends. As long as they have made great achievements in life and turned into legends after death, they will exist on the Heroic Seat. The more special Heroic Spirits like Sherlock Holmes were born by relying on human beliefs. exist.

Conan obviously didn't connect Holmes and Heroic Spirit.

Holmes didn't explain either, the existence of heroic spirits and magic itself is a mystery that cannot be told to unrelated people.If Conan is going to pursue the truth anyway, it's up to him to think hard, and it's just a deciphering challenge for the detectives.

Holmes said as if to point out: "Are you observing? You can't just use your eyes and use your brain to observe. Make bold assumptions and rule out all impossible options—"

"The rest is the truth!" Conan continued the second half of the sentence.

Holmes smiled, and then shook the bracelet made by Chaldea on his wrist. The silver-white communication bracelet was flashing blue light. He bid farewell to Conan and the others: "Okay, I have to go, I need work."

He comes and goes mysteriously.

Conan looked at Holmes' back disappearing into the street corner in a daze, and didn't realize what he was referring to.

A British man named Sherlock Holmes who can think at the same level as Ranpo Edogawa, dresses and speaks in a very Sherlock Holmes style—isn’t that him?

As soon as Ranpo returned, he was told that Dazai was not at the headquarters.

"Let's go and fill it up." Luan Bu was not surprised.

Oda Sakunosuke recalled: "Yes, it was said that he was going to be someone else's Chinese tutor."

Ranpo let out an "oh", and casually said a few words about the Italian Mafia to Oda Sakunosuke: "Vongola's future tenth generation is a Japanese junior high school student who failed all subjects, and Sheng there There is going to be a battle for the ring, and Dazai is going to join in the fun."

Oda Sakunosuke was stunned, his focus was different from the others, and he didn't know where he was thinking, so he asked with some hesitation: "Dazai is really going to be a Chinese teacher for someone?"

"Italian killers can be tutors now, so it's not surprising that mafia cadres are Chinese teachers, right? Keep up with the times, Odasaku."

"No, it's not this..."

Not to mention whether Dazai has literary talent, just looking at how he taught Akutagawa, no one in the port mafia would think that he can teach and educate people.

Oda Sakunosuke has to say something——

As a "person", Dazai has flaws.

When Dazai said that he wanted to be someone else's Chinese teacher, Oda Sakunosuke only thought it was a whim, or that he had a deeper plan.After all, before taking action, he stayed in Luanbu's office for a while, and then went to the leader to get permission to move.

Oda Sakunosuke seemed to want to say something, but hesitated whether to say it or not.

"I know, Odasaku." Ranpo said suddenly.

He walked past Sakunosuke Oda towards the elevator.

"Don't think too much, find yourself a side job, Oda Saku." Ranbu was a little careless, but casually asked the most critical question that Oda Sakunosuke was trying to delay, "When will you start writing your novel?"

"...I haven't thought about it yet, just wait."

"Then take your time."

Luanbu waved his hands without looking back.
