Kneeling and begging to live past the age of 18

After the initial "dispute", the four were finally able to have a quiet conversation "with peace of mind".Leaving aside the mention of the two guardians, Nozomi Miki and Ranpo Edogawa were already whispering together.

"So your father and mother..."

Hearing Ranbu's recent situation in recent years, Miki Nozomi stroked his hair silently, with a soft voice.

"Ranbu is really hard work."

She can even imagine how sad it is to live a chaotic life when she is still a minor and her parents have not broken that white lie.

The difference in cognition will even cause him to fall into self-doubt. If things go on like this and no one leads him, it is impossible to say that anything bad will happen.

It seems that there is no need to worry now, and it is a good thing that Ranpo can meet Mr. Fukuzawa. Even Mr. Fukuzawa's plan to open a detective agency should be for the sake of Ranpo.

"Yes, it's all over, and Axi, you are the same..."

Obviously, the other party also lost his parents just like himself, and was even forced to enter the battlefield to face such a cruel place.

Not wanting the topic to stay in such a depressing place, Edogawa waved his hands in disorder, with vitality in his voice.

"But now I have met Mr. Fukuzawa, Mr. Fukuzawa is very, very nice!"

As he spoke, he drew a big circle with his hands.

"Have this -- how about it!"

"Mr. Fukuzawa's words are true."

Miki Nozomi turned his head and glanced at Mori Ogai who was not far away, who looked like a parent watching a child, and couldn't help but nodded.

"I felt it before, and I am very reliable."

The strength is strong, not only does the job well, but also allows Dr. Sen to catch the wool (cough).

"So you should live with me and Fukuzawa-san, Ashi."

Once again, he said the words of pulling people into the group, Edogawa Ranpo glared indignantly at Mori Ogai who was at least ten meters away, his voice sank, and he wished that Nozomi Miki would leave the other party as soon as possible.

"You know what kind of person he is, Axi, it's too hard to be with him!"

Not to mention anything else, but the doomed darkness of this person makes people feel at a loss.What's more, he is still the kind of person who is so rational that he can't be more rational, and he will definitely do anything with Axi!

Use Ash!This one is unforgivable! ! !

And he forced Axiduo to eat. After living together for two years, he didn't find that Axi had anorexia. He was not qualified at all!

With 100 points, he can't even get a passing grade!

"I have prepared for this kind of thing a long time ago. Anyway, since my father can hand me over to him, then so be it."

Miki Nozomi smiled, with reason and clarity in his eyes.

"It is said to be somewhere else, but I don't even have a family member. Where can I go? Actually, Dr. Mori is fine."

In the final analysis, they are all under the fence, so it doesn't matter where they are, not to mention that she has been running in for such a long time, and she really admires Mori Ogai.

Such a person, if he leaves again, there will be nothing around him.Let's wait until the day when greater interests allow him to abandon himself, or the day when he is destined to die.

It doesn't matter how you die anyway.

"The agreement I made, I have to abide by it no matter what."

Don't say that I promised not to leave long ago, and will the other party really let go?

Will he let go of 【Untitled Love Letter】?

"...A promise or something, the agreement between you and me, Axi, has not been fulfilled at all."

After confirming that Miki Nozomi would never agree to be with him no matter what, Edogawa ranpo pursed his lips, and could only switch to another topic.

"Like festivals, and friends!"

When it comes to friends, his whole body is a little frightened, like a little squirrel who finds out that his granary has been stolen, and wants to catch the prisoner with all his teeth and claws.

"It doesn't matter that the festival was forced, but it was clearly agreed to be each other's only friends! In the end, you secretly made other friends!"

You have someone else!I'm not the only one!

"Huh? Ranpo found out about Akiko."

It was no surprise that the other party knew this, Miki Nozomi blinked and fell into thought.

"How should I put it, after all, it's in such a place, it feels natural to be together as friends or something. Speaking of which, Luanbu, do you remember what I said when I promised?"

"What did you say?"

Edogawa Ranpo looked bewildered.

"Don't you just promise me that I will be the only friend?"

"I said something later."

Patting the other person's shoulder affectionately, Miki Nozomi repeated with a smile.

"It's 'The premise is only here.' That is to say, the premise is only in the country."

Edogawa Ranpo:! ! !

etc!Can it still be like this! ! !

His eyes suddenly widened, like a cat that had been startled all the time, Edogawa Ranpo recalled the scene at that time in his mind, and found that there seemed to be such a sentence!

Yuan, so that is what it means!

"Axi, you actually dug a hole for me so early!"

For a moment, he was completely dumbfounded.

"I only have Axi as your friend..."

As a result, you can make friends casually when you leave the country, but I can only keep the promise and pretend to be happy every day?

Unable to bear it, Edogawa Ranpo raised his voice.

"It's so unfair!"

"Silly boy, you can also make other friends."

Seeing that the other party finally came to his senses, Miki Nozomi hooked the corners of his lips with a smile, and there was even a trace of a smile in his voice.

"Is it also effective for Ranpo? Of course, Ranpo can make a lot of friends."

"But...but..."

Unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time, he walked around "but" for a long time, and muttered softly under Miki Xi's chuckling eyes.

"I don't want other friends."

"Huh? Don't want it?"

Miki Nozomi tilted her head and asked.

"Why don't you want it?"

"Because, because I already understood one thing."

Carefully aiming at Nozomi Miki, Edogawa Ranpo took a deep breath and expressed his feelings.

"Because I know that everyone else in the world is just a baby who is stupid enough to need the care of a genius like me, and there are so many stupid people, and I don't want to make friends with stupid people."

The point is that those who are malicious, ulterior motives, smart, or even hopelessly stupid people account for the vast majority.

In that case, why not just have one friend?

Staring at Miki Nozomi without blinking, Edogawa Ranpo spoke frankly from the heart.

"I think as long as I have Ashi and Mr. Fukuzawa, that's enough."

Aki as a friend, Mr. Fukuzawa as an elder.

--This is enough.

"Ranbu, you really..."

Miki Nozomi sighed, not knowing how to persuade him.

There is only seriousness in the bi-color eyes, and even stubbornness. For him, he is indeed qualified to stand at the top and laugh at other people's "stupidity".

Because all together are just things that can be seen at a glance for him, and there are no secrets in front of him.

but……

Looking at him with stubborn eyes, there is obvious expectation, even some kind of earnest and cautious hope.

"How about this."

Miki Nozomi shook his head helplessly, and finally made a promise.

"Counting Akiko, I won't make any other friends."

"When Ranpo wants to make other friends, I will only have Ranpo and Akiko as friends."

Of course, until his own death.

"After all, Akiko and I are already friends. If you have a chance, you can bring Ranpo to meet Akiko. She is a very gentle child. If you are at Ranpo, you won't hate her."

Seeing what the other party wanted to say, Miki Nozomi poked the other party's forehead and interrupted him.

"is it okay?"

she repeated.

"Is this kind of agreement acceptable to Luanbu?"

The eyes with the golden illusion in the sun just stared at him like this, with a gentle smile of attention, making people feel in a trance that the other party can tolerate everything about you.

And she is indeed like this, obviously it's just her own willfulness.

Edogawa Ranpo really wanted to say that he just wanted to feel injustice when he said this, and he didn't want the other party to be restrained like this.However, when the words came to his lips, he seemed to be bewitched by the other party's words, unable to say anything, and did not want to say any rebuttal words.

"I……"

He stared blankly at the existence in front of him, his rebuttal voice was stuck in his throat, but what came out of his mouth was another word.

"Okay."

Edogawa Ranpo heard himself saying this.

"Ashi, you must abide by the agreement this time."

"of course."

The brown eyes were slightly squinted, but in a trance, they brought out a light that was so bright that it made people addicted, with a certainty that the dust had settled.

"Most definitely."

The conversation lasted for several hours, and even the younger two exchanged addresses and agreed to go out together some time, so Edogawa and Fukuzawa Yukichi left in a hurry.

At the beginning, Ranpo even wanted to return the black goldfish to Nozomi Miki, but she could only regretfully refuse because she thought about the small clinic that might be beaten by someone.

It would be a big loss if something happened that would affect the goldfish, but it would be much safer to go to Luanbu.

Walking with Mori Ogai on the way back, Nozomi Miki was still thinking about the chaos, when suddenly, a familiar voice came from his ear.

"Xi-chan, speaking of it, I don't know anything about your past."

The tall and slender man lowered his head to look at the little girl next to him, with "simple" doubts in his voice.

"Looks like it suddenly appeared today... well, Edogawa Ranpo."

When Mori Ogai said this name, he felt a little uncomfortable.

At first, I thought that I was the closest person to that Xi-chan, but it turned out that there was someone else, and I was just a later...

"May I know what Xi-chan used to do?"

"It's just a normal neighbor relationship."

Miki Nozomi spoke helplessly.

"So it's not normal to be friends?"

But you even have a goldfish as a token of love (bushi)!

Thinking of the two children whispering harmoniously aside, and even Nozomi Miki's gentle appearance, the sour bubbles in Mori Ogai's heart burst out, as if several lemons had been soaked in it.

"Xi-chan still calls me Dr. Sen, but calls him Chaos."

Speaking of this, Mori Ogai's voice even carried a bit of resentment.

"Am I worse than a friend?"
