I'm on the scramble

The next day, in the office of the Armed Detective Agency, everyone felt a heavy sense of urgency over their heads.

The main reason lies in the tense atmosphere between the two childhood sweethearts whose desks are put together, which cannot be ignored.

"If you want to beg me to spare your life, you can only take advantage of the current situation. In order to give you a fatal blow, I built the most lethal weapon overnight. One shot goes down to 9999. Can you Edogawa Ranpo do it?" ?!"

The tea chestnut-haired girl wearing a cat ear headband sat cross-legged on her desk, while performing violent manipulations with her hands, she did not forget to speak cruelly to the black-haired young man next to her.

The famous detective at the side was lying back on the office chair to operate the handheld, crossed his feet on the table, and hummed slowly.

"Did you actually do this to deal with me... Normally, I should praise you, but now you are the one who should beg for mercy, you are right, you will never win Ranpo-sama!"

"Big words! Look, I'm going to serve up my 'Italian Cannon'!"

The crackling sound of keystrokes followed one after another.

As long as someone leans over to take a look, they can see that an extremely fierce fight is going on on the screen of the handheld game consoles that are connected to each other. The respective characters move and attack with murderous aura, and they are as agile as apes, and they use obstacles to avoid attacks from time to time.

The attack angle of the cute loli character is tricky and weird, but she knows her habits well, and can always predict her action route in advance to block it, whether it is attack or defense, she is impeccable.

Finally, the cute loli was no longer impatient with the operation of grinding each other's blood, and directly sacrificed the ultimate weapon barrel, which was taller than the human body, and it was undeniable that they fired a shot at the opponent.

Unexpectedly, the character manipulated by the opponent escaped the bombardment by a small margin, and bullied the character's vital point in front of Ah Li, beating her to the point where only a layer of blood remained.

"No! Just wait for me!"

At the critical moment, Ah Li almost snapped off all the buttons. Her eyes were firmly fixed on the blood bar that was about to bottom out on the side of Ranbu, and she fell into one of the three major illusions in life.

That means she can fight back!

Luanbu gave her a happy one directly, and said, "Wait~"

One hit!

In the end, the character controlled by Ah Li let out a mournful cry, and his body, whose blood bar had been emptied, fell back on the ground, splashing dust a few feet high.

Seeing the blood red on the screen, the girl with cat ears screamed for a long time like the characters who died in battle, and rolled around on the desk unconvinced.

"hateful--"

She should be thankful that her desk is usually neatly organized, not full of snacks like Luanbu next to her, or piles of papers like Kunikida, otherwise she should be scattered everywhere by her actions.

"Ali, you still have to practice." Ranbu, who once again defended the dignity of the champion, continued to play the game console, the corners of his mouth curled up in joy.

"It's like this every time! I don't want to play anymore!" A Li interrupted the online game arbitrarily, throwing down the handheld, letting Luanbu play on his own.

The colleagues in the detective agency have long been used to the noisy scene of the two of them.

"They should be... reconciled, right?" He asked with some uncertainty.

Tanizaki came over and patted the silver-haired boy on the shoulder, and reluctantly gave an accurate reply: "This is already a completely reconciled situation, you should get used to it slowly..."

The president had previously told Ah Li to take a good rest during this period, so there was not much work to be handed over to her, so Ah Li had to have fun by himself, bouncing off the desk as soon as his waist was exerted, wearing a cat ear headband With his small head, he looked around the office.

"By the way, why haven't I seen Dazai these days? Is he missing?"

It was Kunikida who answered her aloud, and now he was typing on the keyboard expressionlessly, as if he didn't bother to care about his partner anymore.

"I guess he's playing rafting in another river, don't worry about him."

The tea chestnut-haired girl sitting on her exclusive desk tilted her head when she heard the words, hugged her coiled ankles with both hands, and swayed back and forth.

"That doesn't mean he doesn't show up for several days in a row? He should know that as long as I sit in the detective agency, if I dare to skip work, I will interrupt him."

As soon as this understatement and rather cruel words came out, the people around immediately felt the chills stand on end.

Tanizaki, who still knew something about this, coughed, and raised his hand tremblingly to tell the information he knew: "Well, I heard that Mr. Dazai seems to be investigating things about Atsushi recently..."

Dun, whose name was called, couldn't help being taken aback: "Huh?"

Ah Li, who didn't know it, looked at the silver-haired boy: "What's going on?"

"Li was still on a business trip at that time, so I don't know."

At this time, Xie Ye walked out of the infirmary. There were no new injuries all day, and she was so bored that her waist was about to hurt.

She yawned and explained: "Atsushi was offered a bounty on the black market before, and people from the port mafia came to trouble him. It is estimated that Dazai wants to investigate who is behind the scenes to post the bounty on them."

Ah Li understood everything, and nodded clearly: "It seems that Dazai was kidnapped by the port mafia?"

Hearing this speculation, Atsushi couldn't sit still any longer, and stood up from the office chair at once, showing panic: "What to do! Mr. Dazai was kidnapped because of me, we must rescue him and come back. !"

Unexpectedly, other people around waved their hands and said, "It's okay, Dazai's blood bar is too thick. I bet 5 yen that he will come back by himself after he dies."

"That's right, maybe he will get the information, let alone hide in the dormitory by himself first."

It can be said that the heavy worry on Dun's face still cannot be easily dissipated: "But..."

In the gap filled with gloom, a sweet girlish voice suddenly pierced through the gloom.

"You guys are going too far, Dazai is also a member of our armed detective agency."

It was Ah Li who couldn't bear to see such a situation and stepped forward, poking people's hearts straight when he opened his mouth.

Atsushi's eyes lit up as he followed the source of her voice, as if he saw the shining god who rescued him from his troubles.

"That's right, that's right...Miss Li!"

Then Dun, who thought she would hurry to rescue him, saw her turning her head to the most honest country boy with a straw hat in the detective agency and said in a blink of an eye: "So Xianzhi, if people from Hong Kong black people call for ransom, they must Remember to hang up immediately, you know—they must not leave any chance to blackmail the detective agency!"

Kenji nodded innocently: "I see~"

"..." Dun was completely torn apart, with an expression of being betrayed by a scumbag.

He knew that it was absolutely impossible to hear any reliable answer from her mouth!

After bullying the newcomer, Ah Li's mood suddenly improved due to the fiasco of the game. Seeing the other party's dispirited look, he waved and called over to give him a rua.

"Don't show such an expression, don't worry, I promise Dazai will come back with all his tail soon!"

Dun stared into her eyes for a long time, as if confirming the truth of her words.After a long while, he gave an aggrieved 'hmm', and conjured up fluffy tiger claws for the girl to play with.

As expected, the younger brother was transferred by her.The teaching was quite successful, Ali immediately screamed excitedly and hugged the tiger's claws, pinched Dundun's flesh pads, and immersed himself in the ocean of happiness brought by the fluff.

"Look! I have a cat!" A Li raised Dun's tiger paws to show off after having fun.

"Miss Li really likes cats..." Zhimei couldn't help but sighed, and even hooked her lips with Xie Ye, "If you like it, how about chopping it up and making a specimen? I happen to have a ready-made hatchet , and Dun can grow back soon, right?"

Speaking of which, the female doctor in the detective agency, who was as brutal as Ah Li, raised her dismemberment tool, and the cold light on the edge of the hatchet immediately made the silver-haired boy shrank his neck.

"No, this is..."

In this slightly chaotic scene, Ah Li didn't allow anyone to know about it, so he happily called out to the junior who was busy processing the documents: "Kunikida! Look, look! I'll just say Maybe I'll have a cat!"

The young man with glasses didn't even look back, he knocked on the keyboard: "Yes--"

Dazzling cat and crazy demon Ah Li was greatly satisfied physically and mentally.

At this time, a lazy voice suddenly echoed in her ears.

"Ali, I want to eat flower bud hamburger tonight."

The tea chestnut-haired girl Shunli was distracted by these words, let go of the big cat she loved in her hand, and turned to look at the young man who made the sound.He was still immersed in the fun of playing games, and the brown detective hat slid down, and the brim of the hat barely covered the fine black bangs on his forehead.

"Then let's go shopping later? You need to help carry things." A Li folded his arms around his chest, and stated his conditions as if he could not refuse.

The tone of Mr. Detective, who was concentrating on the game, became reluctant at once, and he dragged out his tone softly: "Hey——no, walking is so tiring, and it's troublesome to carry things."

"Not negotiable!"

Ah Li was determined not to back down, she was cooking tonight.

The two children quarreled again because of such a trivial matter. Dun blinked his eyes, inexplicably curious about the encrypted call between the two of them.

"Well, why do Miss Li and Mr. Ranpo eat together?"

The others showed hesitant expressions and couldn't bear to poke them.

"Ah, that's because..." Ah Li was about to answer, but at this moment, a certain detective deliberately took the initiative of the announcement.

"Isn't this obvious?"

The arc of the detective's lips curled down, and anyone could see the displeased expression on his face.While he was talking, his eyes quietly moved away from the screen of the game console, and the long and narrow eye slits that were staring at Dun casually opened slightly, setting off a wave as clear and magnificent as the Emerald Star Stone.

"That's because the two of us live together."
