Kneeling and begging to live past the age of 18

"Speaking of the detective's exclusive costume, you have to talk about that, right?"

Having already left the store, he stopped in front of another British style store, Miki Nozomi explained.

"Because detectives originated in Europe, when it comes to exclusive clothing, it is easy to think of small suits, vests, windbreakers, cloaks and hats."

"That's right! That's true!"

Staring at the store door with sparkling eyes, Edogawa Ranpo pushed the door open without saying a word and went in.

As he entered, all kinds of clothes also appeared in sight. Regardless of the clerk who stepped forward, Edogawa walked around looking at each piece, dazzled.

"Speaking of which, what color does Ranpo want?"

Seeing that he was jumping up and down in disorder in the room, Miki Nozomi hurriedly grabbed the other party's hand before the clerk gave a warning, and stopped such behavior.

But Edogawa Ranpo had already found a target, he pointed to a shirt with floral patterns, and turned to ask.

"How about this type?"

The white shirt is printed with the same floral pattern as Miki Nozomi and Yosano Akiko if you don't take a closer look. Although it is not exactly the same, the similarity is already satisfactory.

It's just... it looks a bit gimmicky.

"It seems... nothing wrong?"

He and Yosano Akiko glanced at each other, and they both felt that there was nothing wrong with them, and they pushed Ranbu and his clothes into the dressing room, and picked them up outside.

"But speaking of this kind... I am really not familiar with it."

The room is full of clothes, I'm afraid you and Yosano Akiko are quite distressed. As a child, she was brought to the battlefield by Mori Ogai until she returned to the outside world a while ago, and she doesn't even know what her detective style is.

"In terms of style, this is it."

Borrowing the magazine from the lady at the cash register, Nozomi flipped through it, found a page with the theme of detective style, and handed it to Akiko.

She took it with Akiko Yosano curiously, and what catches her eye is the profound facial features belonging to foreigners, wearing a small vest in a suit, a dark tie, a matching hat on her head, and a trench coat with double-breasted long knives and knees, holding... ...with a pipe?

Um?Do all detectives have pipes?

Thinking in this way, Yosano Akiko turned another page, and this time they saw another set of detective-style clothes.

It is still a white shirt with a small vest and hat, but this time the long windbreaker is neatly buttoned, and a small cape is made on the shoulders, with a gorgeous brooch pinned to it. The model holds a magnifying glass in her hand and poses to explore Actions.

A magnifying glass...is it standard equipment for detectives?

Flipping through a few pages, they all looked the same, Yosano Akiko put down the magazine in her hand, exhaled slowly, and nodded to Miki Nozomi.

"I understand, so this is the detective style!"

Dark colours, trench coats, fancy accessories, the requisite hats, pipes and magnifying glasses for everyone!

"Akiko, you seem to have misunderstood something?"

Looking suspiciously at Akiko Yosano, Nozomi returned the magazine to the young lady and explained it to her.

"The ones in the magazines are different from the real ones. In real ones, it's too conspicuous to walk on the street in such gorgeous clothes."

It's okay to be simple, if you really want to put all the brooches on it, it will probably become the focus when you go out.

"I understand!"

Clenching his fists and looking serious, Yosano Akiko looked around the store, feeling that he had realized it.

"In short, let's choose a few sets first, and then we'll know if they suit and let Luanbu replace them."

"Trench coat, vest..."

Just after looking at it, Ranpo Edogawa in the fitting room had already finished changing his shirt, his original white shirt was in his hand, and he was wearing the gaudy looking shirt with floral prints.

"How about it?"

He couldn't wait to stand in front of the two of them, and even raised his arms and turned around to show the effect.

The fancy shirt that was originally worn on this young man in Ranbu was unexpectedly suitable. It didn't feel frivolous at all, but it made him look more lively.

"great."

Miki Nozomi praised without hesitation.

"It feels very suitable for random walking."

Edogawa Ranpo, who was praised, instantly became elated.

"That way we can say we're wearing the same type of clothes."

"Has stepped out?"

Coming back from the other side, Yosano Akiko handed the checked linen windbreaker and trousers to each other, eager to try.

"Come on Luanbu!"

Somewhat understand why Miki Nozomi had a great time picking clothes for herself, and Yosano Akiko narrowed her eyes slightly, her voice concealed excitement.

"There is still a lot of time, we are not in a hurry, and we will do it in one set."

Edogawa Ranpo: "..."

Holding the clothes stuffed in his hands blankly, he was a little dazed.

Why does Akiko feel so excited? ? ?

"It's okay, it's okay, we will find the clothes that suit you best for Ranpo!"

Smiling and patted Ranbu's arm, Miki Nozomi pushed the other person who had just come out back to the fitting room, turned around and went to pick out clothes with Yosano Akiko again.

After a while, Edogawa Ranpo, who had changed his clothes, came out again. At this time, the two people who had chosen their clothes looked at Ranpo at the door, and shook their heads in unison.

Yosano Akiko: "No way..."

Miki Nozomi: "Ah, the shirt on the inside doesn't match the one on the outside."

Yosano Akiko: "But Ranpo likes this shirt and can't change it."

Miki Nozomi: "Then try wearing a vest? Adding a vest will make you more stable."

A few words of dialogue made Edogawa Ranpo's arrangement clear, and the next second, there was another vest in Ranpo's hand, and the whole person was pushed back to the fitting room.

Edogawa Ranpo: "..."

Looking down at the vest in his hand, he still took off his windbreaker silently and put on the vest in his hand.

After changing everything, Edogawa Ranpo walked out of the fitting room again, and what greeted him was the discussion between Nozomi Miki and Akiko Yosano.

"Sure enough, I feel much better, but I still have to hold my opinion."

Passing the hat in his hand to the other party, Nozomi Miki pointed to the full-length mirror next to him and asked the other party.

"Lanbu, see for yourself, how do you feel?"

"Feel……"

It took only a few steps to come to the floor-to-ceiling mirror. In the mirror, most of the boy's floral shirt was blocked by the vest. Only sporadic ones broke through the vest and appeared tenaciously outside. hats even...

Even make yourself appear a little taller! ! !

Raising his hand to touch the extra hat, Edogawa Ranpo looked in the mirror several times before looking at his little friend again.

"I think it's great to have a hat! It's just that the windbreaker is too long and it's hot."

Bowing his head and pulling on the plaid windbreaker, Edogawa walked wildly in thought for a few seconds, then suddenly remembered Fukuzawa Yukichi.

There are no patterns on Mr. Fukuzawa's clothes at all, so I have to look up to Mr. Fukuzawa!

With this in mind, he seriously added conditions.

"No pattern, but the solid color, the simple one, and... well, the dark one!"

Mr. Fukuzawa wears dark colors, so I have to wear dark colors too!

"No windbreaker, solid color and dark color, can't have patterns?"

Miki Nozomi nodded, and looked at Yosano Akiko, who was putting the unqualified ones back on the shelf.

"Let's try again with random steps."

Smiling, she took the qualified light gray cloak and matching pants from Akiko's hand, Miki Nozomi put it into Edogawa Ranpo's hand with a smile on her face, and then... double-handedly pushed the other party into the fitting room .

Edogawa Ranpo: "..."

Just... Do I have to change it myself?

Looking down at the clothes in his hand again, Edogawa Luanpo remained silent for a few seconds before changing them on again.

For your own style!It doesn't matter if you change it ten times!

"What about this time?"

After changing his clothes and pants, Luanbu walked out of the fitting room again, but what awaited him was another set of clothes of other colors.

"Gray looks a bit old-fashioned, try this at random~"

Edogawa Ranpo: "...Oh."

Obediently picked up the underwear handed over, he took the initiative to turn around and answered the fitting room again.

Facts have proved that changing clothes for people is indeed addictive. When Yosano Akiko picked and picked until the fifth set, Edogawa Ranpo felt that he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Just this one!"

Holding the coffee-colored cloak he had just changed and the hat of the same color on his head, Edogawa squatted down to protect his clothes, and looked at the two people who were addicted to choosing clothes for him with pitiful eyes.

"I think this one is great! Great! Just this one!"

If it's a snack, I won't get tired of eating it ten times in a meeting, but it's so troublesome to go back and forth to change clothes!

"It's a pity, it seems that Luanbu doesn't want to change."

Miki Nozomi shook her head and took back the clothes in her hand.

"Five sets only."

Shaking his head, Yosano Akiko also put the clothes back.

I have changed seven or eight sets before, so I can't do it in disorder.

"Are you sure it's the coffee color? You can also choose the ones that have been changed by Luanpo before. After all, it is mainly Luanpo that you like."

"That's it!"

It looked really good from the full-length mirror, Edogawa walked around in a circle, touched the hat on the top of his head, and felt that this was really okay.

In short, don't let yourself change clothes anymore, even if you give yourself two cones, you won't be able to make up for the energy you expended!

In the afternoon, several people finally separated and returned home. Fukuzawa Yukichi, who also returned home, looked at the two completely changed Ranpo and Akiko, and was a little surprised for a while.

"Mr. Fukuzawa here!"

Handing the pipe in his hand to Fukuzawa Yukichi, Edogawa Ranpo

"I read the magazine and thought it made sense. Although I, a famous detective, don't need this at all, but Mr. Fukuzawa, you can use it to increase the temperament of a detective, but you must not smoke."

After all, smoking is harmful to health!Harmful to health!Smoking must be absolutely prohibited, and he must never smoke second-hand smoke!

"Oh yes, and a magnifying glass."

After all, he looked at Akiko Yosano, who also took out a magnifying glass from a paper bag, put it in Fukuzawa Yukichi's hand, and explained very seriously.

"I've already bought several magnifying glasses that are necessary for detectives, and I guarantee that all members of the club will have them in the future."

Holding the pipe that Ranpo gave him in one hand, and the magnifying glass that Yosano Akiko gave him in the other, Fukuzawa Yukichi, who was just an ordinary samurai, kept his serious face and was at a loss inside.

What detective temperament?Detective...why have a pipe and a magnifying glass?I am not a detective, why use this thing?

And... isn't the only detective in the detective agency just Luanpo? ? ?
