I'm on the scramble

Jinghua seemed very surprised by their appearance, her haggard and pale face was like a lily that had been washed by the rain.

"Miss Li, why..."

Pretending her strange performance as asking how she got here, Ah Li immediately showed off her cleverness and wit complacently, like a lively bird showing off its feathers.

"Of course it is because I know that you will definitely stay in a place where you can feel safe. In this case, the scope is easy to lock. It is the place where you wandered before being adopted by Hong Kong gangsters."

"I have inquired with passers-by, and I chased it all the way here, isn't it amazing?"

Jinghua hastily interrupted her: "No, I'm asking why you came to me..."

She hesitated to speak, her eyes full of complex emotions could not be easily extinguished.

Ah Li couldn't help but gradually stopped talking, staring at Jing Hua's shaken face.She tapped the cardboard with photo stickers on her palm, and said in a natural tone: "Then why... I just want to tell you that you are not homeless."

As she spoke, she handed the photo stickers of the two of them in her hand to Jinghua.

"Here, keep it well this time, don't lose it again."

Jinghua lowered her head silently.

The heartstrings were touched by something very soft in an instant, humming, and the trembling amplitude made her very at a loss.

In the end, the girl in kimono didn't catch the photo sticker she handed over, but couldn't help the impulse in her heart, and rushed over to embrace her, the photos, and the things she cherished.

A Li, who was spoiled by the little girl, patted her head tolerantly: "Okay, okay, don't be afraid—"

The young man in the windbreaker behind came stepping slowly, seeing the scene of the interaction between the two, he couldn't help expressing emotion.

"Miss Li, if you do this, Mr. Ranbu will be jealous again after you go back."

Ah Li, who was holding his sister in his arms, raised his eyebrows, his clear eyes were full of orange light, and he didn't have the dirty thoughts of an adult like him at all: "Ah? Why?"

Dazai stared at her for a while, making sure that she really didn't understand, then he waved his hand helplessly: "Since you don't know, then it's best to pretend that I didn't tell you."

(It seems that Ms. Li has no sense of defense against girls at all...)

Next, they discussed their plan to return to the detective agency. It is estimated that Dun and the others have been worried for a long time, and they must report to them that Xia Jinghua is safe.

"Dazai, you can run behind the bicycle on foot, and Kyoka sits on the back seat of me." Ari stepped into the car, twisted the front of the car while talking, and arranged the two of them clearly.

"...Wait, you have carried me so many times before you came here, but now you want to abandon me and let me walk alone?"

Dazai was very dissatisfied that his exclusive seat was taken away.Although the experience of riding in Ah Li's car was not very good, he himself refused it, but it is one thing to refuse it himself, but it is completely different to be rejected first.

"It is precisely because I have already carried you many times before that I let you go by yourself now... Hey, don't just get into the car in front of me!"

Seeing that Dazai was so big and wanted to sit on the top tube of her bicycle frame, Ah Li hurriedly stopped his childish behavior, and said with a little breakdown: "Take care of yourself, don't be like a super-caring passenger seat. A woman is as scheming as a woman!"

They were pulling and pulling, and they couldn't move at all for a while.

After finally dragging this seriously overloaded bicycle, he drove crookedly out of this slum street, and carefully avoided the pursuit of the city police traffic brigade. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the block, he was stopped by sudden bursts of explosions from outside.

'Boom--'

It seemed that there was a gangster fighting in the distance, and the gunfire created spread to the periphery, and the passers-by who were afraid of suffering, screamed and fled.

The whole of Yokohama eventually turned into chaos uncontrollably.

"How is this going?"

Ah Li's face darkened, but before she stopped the car to take a closer look, suddenly the cell phone in her skirt pocket rang, and someone called her.

The person on the other end of the phone is the president.

His cold and dull tone was like severe frost tearing open the air.

"Come back quickly, the members of the detective agency have been attacked, and Dun has been taken away by the enemy."

Before they had time to discuss, they hurried back to Wanxiangtang, the secret offline stronghold of the detective agency, where there was a heavy atmosphere of unrequited love after treatment with Xie Ye.Tanizaki and Kunikida, who had recovered from their serious injuries, lay weakly on the long table, their whole bodies radiant as if they had been carefully polished.

"Father, what happened?" Ah Li walked quickly towards Fukuzawa Yukichi first, with the long knife on his back.

"The team of the attack group was flanked by the enemy."

Fukuzawa Yukichi, who came to greet him, explained the ins and outs to his beloved daughter whom he trusted.Shi Dun and the three of them bumped into Hong Kong gangsters on the way to collect information. When the battle was in full swing, the people in the combination unexpectedly rushed out halfway and ambushed them.

The three parties lost all three sides, and then Dun was taken away by a combination that had the upper hand in numbers.

It happened that Kunikida and the others regained consciousness at this time, and added details here.

"The first one I hit was Akutagawa from the port mafia guerrillas. His injuries seem to have almost recovered. He should have obtained a special intelligence channel from their organization and ambushed us on our road. He also said that he would let us deliver you come out."

Thinking back to Akutagawa's terrifying face full of murderous aura at that time, Kunikida still felt a little sick to his stomach.

"You really made him angry."

Even Tanizaki couldn't help answering from the side: "But Atsushi was very protective of you at the time, and he fought Akutagawa at the slightest disagreement..."

However, when they thought of Dun being taken away by the enemy who suddenly broke into the battle, their mood had to take a turn for the worse and became depressed.

"I didn't expect the leader of the group to bring people here in person. We are outnumbered and can't protect Atsushi." Kunikida was ashamed, but President Asa bowed his head deeply, "Sorry, I'm the leader of the team. Still something like this happened..."

It seems that he blamed himself very much for failing to protect his subordinates.

The president closed his eyes and shook his head at him.

"The responsibility doesn't lie with you." It's because he, the president, failed to protect his subordinates.

It could be seen that the president also felt guilty, and Ah Li couldn't help but stepped forward to comfort them.

"All in all, it's the best result that you two are fine."

Unexpectedly, the two people who were being comforted stared at her strangely for a while, this kind of thoughtfulness originated from her was really uncomfortable.

Ah Li: "...if you look at me like this again, something will happen to you soon."

Kunikida and Tanizaki calmly adjusted their gaze.

At this moment, a lazy youthful voice pierced the air between them.

"I really want to go out and play - the war is really boring, and my reserve of rough snacks is almost exhausted, let's end it~"

Luanbu threw out a quote in a timely manner, and his voice was so cute that it dragged out like a little sloth.Despite being in such a tense environment, this famous detective who seems to have not grown up just looks up at the light bulb to watch the beautiful lines flowing inside the marble, which is related to the issue of whether he is comfortable or not.

But what he said casually is the key to hit the nail on the head.

"Lanbu is right. The most important thing now is to solve this problem. It is not an option to hide here all the time."

Anyway, for the sake of chaos, she has to solve this matter as soon as possible.Immediately, Ah Li looked at the president and asked, "Dad, can you leave this matter to me?"

Fukuzawa Yukichi looked at her quietly: "What are you going to do?"

The meaning of this sentence is to let her play to the fullest.

Ah Li, who understood the meaning of his words, smiled brightly, then turned around and slapped his palm on the blackboard in the classroom.

"Of course, we must defeat all the enemies who came to make trouble. First of all, we need to bring Dun back safely."

As she spoke, she turned to Kunikida and asked, "Do you still have any memories of the group members who came to attack?"

Kunikida nodded: "They are a combination of a priest and an aristocratic woman with an umbrella. Akutagawa was not quick to troublesome outsiders, so he changed the target of the attack and wanted to repel the opponent. The battle with them The battle was very fierce, and the woman was even seriously injured, and the priest couldn't resist his crazy attack. I thought the battle could be one-sided, but the leader of the combination came with the remaining subordinates and harvested the battlefield."

"In addition to the pastor, the woman, and the leader of the group, there are also supernatural beings who can manipulate plants in the group members. When they come, they use tree roots to trip up the two people. Then there is an old man with a gray beard, and two young people. The men, the very tall one in them, was a very bad thing."

"So, this number is likely to be most of their main force this time..." While listening to his explanation, Ah Li wrote the main points he had sorted out on the blackboard with chalk, and finally drew a big one. circles.

This circle refers to the stronghold of the combination.

"Since they came out in full force, it is very likely that Dun Dun was brought back to the stronghold by them—that is, the white whale that flew to nowhere and has the function of invisibility."

Ah Li silently analyzed, the most critical problem now is not knowing where the white whale is currently.According to the information obtained from Allan Poe, the beluga whale has been transformed into a military device with an anti-detection stealth function. How to catch its current location is still a problem.

"As for the location of the white whale, I may know the answer."

Dazai took out a locator from the pocket of the windbreaker, pinched the end of the antenna with his half-bandaged fingers, and a series of coordinates flashed on the locator screen before their eyes.

"what--"

People who didn't know about it, including Ah Li, were dumbfounded. This is simply a helping hand in a difficult time.

"When did you put a tracker on Dundun!" When Ah Li was happy, her whole face bloomed like a delicate rose, and she couldn't help but rushed towards Dazai excitedly, and patted his arm hard , "It's really you!"

——As expected of her reliable right-hand man!

Ah Li wrote these words with joy on his face.

Seeing this, Dazai took advantage of his height and rubbed her head with a smile.

"It was quietly put on Dun Jun when he wore the sign 'please adopt it'. By the way, Mr. Ranpo also knew about this matter."

Because of this sentence, Ah Li turned his head in the direction of his bamboo horse.But the famous detective didn't seem to be very happy, and narrowed his long and narrow eyes, aiming at the palm of Dazai's hand that was still on her head.

"I know, but I know, Lord Luanbu can see this kind of thing at a glance."

Because of the behavior of the two of them, he obviously showed his awkwardness, moved his body a little restlessly, and couldn't help admitting a little irritably: "It's not because of you, Ah Li, if you know that Dunjun is lost, then It’s good to get it back.”

"...You guys kept me in the dark." A Li stared at his bamboo horse with dissatisfaction, a little reconciled that he was not the one who knew about it beforehand.

"It's just for preparation afterwards. The more people who know about it, the greater the risk of exposure. If you let Dun Jun know in advance that you have a tracker on your body, and those who relax their vigilance and cooperate with the combination may be very likely to be discovered."

Ah Li, who naturally understood, gradually compromised in these words, turned around and jumped up and patted him on the head as well, pouring out his own encouragement as heavy as a father's love.

"here you go!"

"No, it's all for you, Miss Li." Dazai said truthfully with a smile on his face, "As long as I think it's your request that will make you happy, I'm willing to take off the stars first."

As soon as these words were said, the atmosphere in the Wanxiang Hall suddenly fell into a strange silence.

Tanizaki stared round his eyes as if he had seen a ghost, and Dr. Yosano smiled with great interest. Kenji didn't understand the situation, and Kyoka looked at him silently. Kunikida frowned even more. Wanting to stop him with a voice: "Dazai, don't talk nonsense here!"

And his partner, who has always been unscrupulous, spread his hands exaggeratedly, and the windbreaker was lifted by the movement of his elbow.

"I didn't talk nonsense."

Dazai put his hand on Ah Li's shoulder, his expression was intoxicated with happiness, "Now I am Miss Li's person, no matter what she wants me to do for her, I can't refuse Woolen cloth."

Ash: "..."

Although this is true, the two agreed to fight together for each other's ambitions, but he changed his way of speaking, why does it sound so strange?

At this time, even the president's eyes became strange, and the wooden clogs stepped forward, and the heavy pressure approached him.

"Dazai, is your relationship with the little girl really what you said?"

"When..." Dazai's smile didn't change, he was about to open his mouth to admit it, when the girl with tea chestnut hair panickedly blocked his mouth, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

Ah Li grabbed his hand on his shoulder, and quickly turned around to clarify to the president: "Dad, don't listen to his nonsense! The relationship between me and him is just a 'father-son' relationship!"

She didn't know that Fukuzawa Yukichi's expression became more terrifying because of this, and she couldn't help thinking wildly.

(Also, and the one who really wants to have a relationship should be him——)

With such a thought in his mind, Ah Li couldn't help but look in a certain direction, and suddenly there was a thump in his heart.

Ranpo stared at her and Dazai expressionlessly.Even if he could see that someone was deliberately provoking him, he couldn't bear it anymore, and his narrowed eyes revealed a dangerous quality.

"You two, what little secret are you keeping behind my back?"

A shivering feeling came from Ah Li's petite back for a moment.It's like the cat's nerves explode when it is naturally in danger.

There was only a cracking sound of bones, and Ah Li felt that the wrist bone of the one he was holding was accidentally broken and dislocated by her.
