Living in Yokohama

"That, that, Mr. Dazai," Atsushi Nakajima sat on the box with his legs crossed, "A-the other two...won't you come?"

"Huh?" Osamu Dazai narrowed his eyes, "The other two? Do you want to ask Xiaobai why he didn't come?"

Atsushi Nakajima hesitantly gave a "hmm".Compared to the impetuous Kunikida Doppo and Osamu Dazai who couldn't see what he was thinking, that girl obviously seemed much easier to get along with. Although asking a girl to stay here late at night waiting for a tiger is a bit difficult, but——

"Crack." There was a strange noise from somewhere.

"——!! Tiger!! The tiger is coming!!" Atsushi Nakajima jumped out of the box and looked around in panic, "Mr. Dazai, the tiger is coming at me! That girl, that girl too, must be here now!! "

"No, don't worry, neither tigers nor girls will come in from there." Osamu Dazai said meaningfully.

Leaving aside the girl who ordered the tiger, the tiger himself was right in front of him, so naturally he would not come in through that window.

Osamu Dazai closed the book.

"Hatsuna Masumi... Will that girl really appear here?"

Shirasaki clasped her hands, her pupils looked a little indifferent under the moonlight: "Ah, I'm afraid that the 'someone is going to kill me' that Atsushi felt was not an illusion, the first name Masumi is indeed planning to attack Atsushi, so she will definitely appear in the here."

"Is there anything special about that kid?" Kunikida nodded his chin and thought, "I think he's just ordinary..."

Shirasaki doesn't know what's so special about Atsushi Nakajima, she can only guess that Atsushi Nakajima is a superhuman who can transform into a tiger.

"Although we don't know it yet, there must be some secret hidden in that child, otherwise Masumi Hatsune would not be so obsessed—it's there!"

Seeing the color of champagne disappearing from the corner of the eye, Shirasaki followed without hesitation!Passing through several small flats, Hatsue Masumi looked back at her, with a faint light in her eyes, Shirasaki felt dizzy inexplicably, and when she regained consciousness, there was no trace of Hatsune Masumi.

Kunikida followed pantingly: "Did you lose track?"

Shirasaki rubbed her forehead: "...um."

Just for a moment, she seemed to recall something...but...?

"...Kunikida-senpai," Shirasaki paused, and asked hesitantly, "Do you think Hatsuna Masumi... well, it's nothing." Thinking about it, Kunikida Doppo didn't seem to have seen Hatsuna Masumi much. On the face of it, it doesn't make sense to ask him this question.

However, even though she usually doesn't think about it when she thinks about it, when she was dizzy just now and recalled the appearance of Hatsune Masumi, she felt for a moment that Hatsune Masumi looked very similar to herself.

...It's not with this face...huh?

It was as if the switch of some key words was touched, and the brain went blank for a moment.

Kunikida looked at her in confusion: "What did you want to ask just now?"

Shirasaki was stunned, she raised her head blankly and looked at Kunikida Doppo, not sure: "It's nothing...?"

"Huh?" Kunikida made a suspicious voice. He looked back at the NO.15 warehouse and said, "Forget it, let's go back and see how Dazai is doing."

Before Osamu Dazai told Kunikida that Tiger would appear in the No.15 warehouse, Kunikida Doppo also called all the people who were not on duty today.

"Hey, Dazai, you have taught everyone here today, so why don't you have a drink later?"

Osamu Dazai looked at Shirasaki kindly.

Standing in front of Shirasaki with Xie Ye, he raised his eyebrows: "Do you want a girl to raise her, Dazai?"

"No." Osamu Dazai denied the statement, "Because Xiaobai is living with me now, so I should ask my roommate for advice."

"? Whatever you want." Osamu Dazai's words seemed a bit strange, but he couldn't find the problem for a while, so Shirasaki ignored it, "So what should I do with this child?"

Osamu Dazai raised his index finger and excitedly proposed: "How about letting him join the detective agency!"

"Huh?! Are you kidding me, Dazai!" Kunikida opened "Ideal", "Not only is he a beast that endangers public order, but he is also a high-risk character with a reward of 70 billion yuan. This kind of dangerous person—"

Kunikida stopped, looked at Shirasaki who seemed a little lost, and explained dryly: "That, that, Abai, I didn't mean to target you..."

Edogawa Ranpo: "Ah, Kunikida is still so clumsy."

Yosano Akiko: "Oh, you made Ah Bai sad, Kunikida."

Miyazaki Kenji, who had just joined the detective agency, asked curiously, "Has Saki been offered a reward before?"

There is nothing difficult to answer, Shirasaki nodded: "Well, 250 billion US dollars."

"Hey! That's amazing! 250 billion is... well, more than three times that of 70 billion! Ah Saki is worth more than three tigers!"

Shirasaki: ...!

Having said that, it suddenly swelled up a bit!

Osamu Dazai burst out laughing, and explained with frowning eyebrows, "But now the reward issue has basically been resolved, although there is still a reward of thirty dollars on the black market."

At this moment, the young man on the ground woke up faintly. He rubbed his forehead with the tiger claws that hadn't changed back: "Um... what is touching my head——"

Atsushi Nakajima: ……………

He raised his head stiffly to look at the people in front of him, and his neck made a bone-like sound as he turned his neck: "What is this--"

"Atsushi Nakajima!" Osamu Dazai yelled to call him back. Under Atsushi Nakajima's bewildered gaze, Osamu Dazai smiled slightly, "Next you will join the detective agency."

Atsushi Nakajima: …………………………

Atsushi Nakajima passed out.

"Does the detective agency have a spare dormitory?" When Shirasaki first came back, the temporary clerks who had been recruited hadn't left yet, and the detective agency's dormitory was tight. Later, they left one after another, and the dormitory was also vacant. But at that time, Shirasaki had been living with Osamu Dazai for a long time, and there was no way to move back to the dormitory, "I remember how many people left?"

Yosano Akiko recalled for a moment: "Well, there is a spare dormitory, Kenji, please."

Miyazaki Kenji raised the stiff Atsushi Nakajima and said cheerfully, "Okay! Leave it to me!"

Kunikida Doppo tried to make a final struggle: "Hey...that's..."

Edogawa Ranpo walked past him: "Give up, Kunikida."

Shirasaki yawned, and suddenly remembered that the detective agency still had an entry test.

She looked at Kunikida, then at Dazai Osamu, and trotted to Edogawa Ranpo: "Is Mr. Ranpo going on a business trip recently?"

Edogawa Ranbu gave her an approving look: "Since Abai has asked so much! Then tomorrow's work, Abai, will be done with me!"

Dazai Osamu yelled from behind: "Hey! This is too much! Is Xiaobai going to sneak out to play!"

"It's work," Bai Xiao shouted back without looking back, "And I smell you are going to do something bad from such a distance!"

"Eh?" Osamu Dazai picked up his collar and sniffed, "Is there any?"

Kunikida agrees: "Indeed, it smells like bad water!"

Osamu Dazai: ...

These two people have quite a common language on the matter of running on him.

For Edogawa Ranpo, none of the cases troubled the famous detective by taking a tram, but this time on the way, the famous detective Ranpo had one more task.

"...Well, don't keep staring at me." Shirasaki squeezed her sleeves a little uncomfortably, "Even if I was asked by the president...Mr. Ranpo is just trying to play tricks, right?"

Edogawa Ranpo snorted softly: "A famous detective wouldn't be so boring! It's you... Forget it, this is normal."

Shirasaki: "? What?"

Edogawa shook his head in disorder, instead of following the topic, he said willfully: "The leaflet says that there is a newly opened meatball shop at the exit of the station! Let's go buy it when we get off the bus!"

Bai Qi took out the buzzing and vibrating phone, opened the email, and saw the police officer on the opposite side urging like a storm, she turned off the phone without changing her face: "Well, pack and go?"

Edogawa Ranpo prefers to eat now, but he also wants to go to the scene as soon as possible. He reluctantly said: "Then pack it."

Anyway, judging from the speed at which he solved the case, the meatballs at that time would not become stale.

So it took less than a minute for the murderer to be found by Luanbu, who was eager to eat meatballs.

The murderer put out a question mark in confusion:?

It took a month of planning, as if doing a lonely.

Edogawa Ranpo shook his head and sighed: "An idiot is an idiot, and a plan made in a month is still an idiot's plan."

At this moment, Shirasaki received an email from Osamu Dazai, and when she opened it, it was Atsushi Nakajima, wearing new clothes and sitting quietly on the sofa in the coffee shop downstairs (By the way, half of Osamu Dazai's face was still on the screen) .).

"Dun has successfully passed the entry test~" the text part of the email said.

Edogawa scrutinized her expression in disorder, and realized: "Has that kid passed the entrance test for the detective agency? Ah, anyway, he got recognized through self-sacrifice or something."

"It wasn't detailed in the email," Shirasaki recalled Nakajima Atsushi, frowning slightly, "but it should be similar to Mr. Ranpo's guess."

...How should I put it, she is not familiar with Atsushi Nakajima, so she may not be very accurate in terms of character, but——

That child, it seems... Shirasaki shook his head, and said with a relaxed smile: "Mr. Ranpo, where else do you want to go?"

Edogawa Ranpo took out a list: "Let me see... Oh! I have been to those few places! This time I will change these few places!"

"Okay, shall we go back to the detective agency after eating?"

"Well, but Ah Bai," Edogawa Ranpo's green eyes showed extra seriousness, "That child is not your responsibility."

Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled softly: "Yes, I know."

"...But no one in this world understands what it is like to be offered a high reward better than me," Bai Xiao said, looking at the busy traffic in the distance, as if she saw herself hiding in hiding, "Don't worry Well, I have no intention of making this matter my responsibility, but, as a senior who is 'hunted down', it is still possible to teach that child some experience."

In recent years, Akutagawa Ryunosuke has been responsible for the pursuit of the port mafia. If the port mafia targets the 70 billion, then Atsushi Nakajima is bound to face the pursuit of Akutagawa Ryunosuke——

"Exactly, I happen to know the trick to deal with Akutagawa Ryunosuke."
