When the tram slowly pulled into the station, Ranpo Edogawa and Atsushi Nakajima sat on the waiting chairs, a little nervous.

Oh, only Nakajima Atsushi and Edogawa Ranpo are seriously reading manga.

Atsushi Nakajima was nervous because he knew that the armed detective agency he was about to meet was a bit cold, and it was said that he had been active in Tokyo and rarely returned to Yokohama. He knew from the description that he was a very difficult person to get along with.

Especially before approaching, Senior Kunikida specially stopped him and told him: "Ah, Don-kun, don't be afraid, Mr. Beichuan is just a little cold on the surface, and he won't hit people for no reason."

Why on earth do you emphasize 'not beating people for no reason'? It sounds very bad, doesn't it?

Ranpo Edogawa flipped through a page of the manga, and casually said, "Well, Don't worry, Atsushi-kun, Kitagawa will like you very much~"

... Not feeling comforted at all, Atsushi Nakajima changed the subject: "What is Mr. Ranpo looking at?"

"I'm watching the special chapter of girl manga, Fireworks Festival!" Ranpo Edogawa held up the manga whose cover seemed to be bursting with a bunch of pink girl love bubbles, and showed the page he saw to Atsushi Nakajima.

It was a very beautiful page, with black and white intertwined, outlining the profile of a girl who was smiling and chatting on the phone, a cat tail bent into the shape of a half heart dangled behind her, and the other page was a girl holding The communicator, the image of the boy looking up at the sky, the fireworks exploded/exploded in the girl's sky, and the gorgeous illusory love background appeared on the boy's side, black and white exploded/full of love.

This is a special episode of the Fireworks Festival. It is about a cat-tailed girl and a detective boy who are in a different place and softly call each other's name at the moment when the fireworks explode/explode. They didn't say anything except the name, but everything has not yet The words that were spoken and the viewers made up their brains at this moment.

The manga is very good-looking, the picture is very delicate, the content is very sweet, and this shoujo manga is also very famous. Atsushi Nakajima has seen it at Junichiro Tanizaki, but Edogawa Ranpo reads the very famous shoujo romance manga, no matter what No matter how you think about it, it feels strange.

As if Atsushi Nakajima's face was full of inner thoughts, Edogawa Ranbu said: "It's not a girl's romance manga, it's a girl's romance manga with detective elements!"

As usual, the world's number one detective said with pride, "This male protagonist is the world's number one detective in the comic book world!"

"Huh?" Nakajima paused, "Is that so?"

I always feel that when talking about the male lead, Mr. Ranpo bit his voice hard.

"But having said that, it's so obvious. The indifferent cat hasn't found out yet. A qualified detective assistant needs someone with a supernormal IQ and EQ~!" Atsushi Nakajima, then stared thoughtfully at the tram that had just stopped, "A homicide has occurred."

Then he said firmly, "Kudou is also in the car."

Atsushi Nakajima probably knows a little about the connection between "murder case" and "Kudo". ...Ah, speaking of it this way, Mr. Kudo's supernatural ability is probably related to the murder or something, right?

After the tram stopped, the first people to get off were a group of people in police uniforms. They pressed a person and walked out. Edogawa Ranbu's eyes fell on Beichuan Xingji who came out later, and he beckoned: "Beichuan~!"

Edogawa Conan also jumped off the train: "Mr. Ranpo."

"It's you, 'Conan'." Edogawa pressed his hat in disorder, glanced at the carriage casually, and suddenly frowned again, "Why does Beichuan always bring strange people back to Yokohama?"

"Hey?" Conan's eyes slowly turned into fish eyes, "It's just a coincidence that the murder case happened, it's really not the so-called bad luck..."

"I'm not talking about you," Beichuan Xingji pressed his head, "I've arrived in Yokohama, there are other people here, I will never get lost again, so don't worry and go back with Miss Xiaolan."

"Really, it always feels like you and Mr. Ranpo together can get lost enough to arrive in Tokyo with the train." Edogawa Conan glanced at him suspiciously, and then saw the silver-haired oblique bangs following Edogawa Ranpo Boy, "Is this boy a newcomer to the detective agency?"

Atsushi Nakajima smiled and said: "Ah, yes, I am a newcomer who just joined the detective agency, Atsushi Nakajima, senior Beichuan and..."

He hesitated for a moment, but said, "Hello, little friend."

"Hello, Dunjun." Beichuan Xingji tilted his head, and said calmly, and continued to press his head like Kogoro Mori, "So, kid, go find your sister Xiaolan, with Dunjun here, don't worry about me and Ranbu gentlemen."

Atsushi Nakajima was a little surprised. Although Mr. Kitagawa was very cold when he was not talking, he was okay when he spoke, which dispelled the coldness a bit. Then why did Kunikida-senpai say 'I won't hit you for no reason? People' such words?I always feel that when he speaks, he is calm on the surface.

Conan struggled for a while before being let go: "Hey, you're going too far!"

Wherever he goes, there will be murder cases. The primary school student looked around and saw Mao Lilan standing at the door of the car, smiling and looking over, so he waved goodbye: "Then I'll go first, Mr. Ranbu~"

Edogawa waved his hand casually, and said, "Well, I just said, Beichuan will definitely like Dun-kun~"

"I also like the world's number one detective with black hair." Beichuan Xingji said, and then glanced sideways at the carriage, "It's Kaitou 1412, it's not harmful to Yokohama, and I like jewelry."

Phantom Thief 1412 is the code of international criminals. If you only talk about this code, many people may not know it. Then when it comes to another name of Phantom Thief, "Phantom Thief Kidd", most people will suddenly realize it.

Phantom Thief Kidd, a magician phantom thief who aims to steal jewelry and other works of art. He especially likes jewelry, and he especially hates fish. I don’t know if he likes mackerel. , using all kinds of exquisite magic to steal the target items, some time ago because of the magic of 'walking in the air', the public opinion was aroused/exploded, fortunately, it was after the fireworks festival.

Thinking of the strange thief boy who looks very similar to Kudo Shinichi, Beichuan Xingji said: "A very beautiful red apple can also give people the illusion of a ruby, and people can't help but observe it carefully. Maybe a strange thief who likes jewels Likes red apples... by the way, he hates fish."

Then he casually asked Atsushi Nakajima: "Does Atsushi like apples?"

Atsushi Nakajima thought for a while, and said: "If the red apple looks like a ruby, it should be very beautiful, right? Then everyone will like it."

"Dun Jun doesn't like it, and Kaitou 1412 won't like it either." Edogawa said randomly.

If it's just an ordinary apple, of course some people will like it, but if it's a special apple, then even people with supernatural abilities won't like it.

"It's just an ordinary question about the taste. Then when we pass by the cone shop, we won't order apple-flavored cones. After all, no one will like them." Beichuan Xingji blinked and asked calmly, "Except that I don't like apples. , Mr. Ranpo, do you have any other suggestions?"

"It's not a suggestion not to like that guy. The living puppeteer you're looking for has also returned to the Special Forces Department." Edogawa stretched his waist in a random way, turned around and walked out, pretending not to see Atsushi Nakajima's hand The volume of girl romance comics I took.

"The living doll I need has already been made, and it is in a very suitable place. Let him stay in the Supernatural Secret Service for a while and enjoy the rest of his life." Beichuan Xingji also took a look, thinking Said: "Mr. Ranpo is still chasing this girl's love manga? Then you need to rethink the meeting gift."

He pointed out calmly: "After all, you have been following this manga for seven years."

"What, seven years?!" Atsushi Nakajima turned his head to look at Beichuan Xingji, then at Edogawa Ranpo, and finally took out this issue of girl manga in a hurry.

Compared to the fact that Mr. Ranpo actually likes shoujo romance manga with detective elements, is it more terrifying that this shoujo romance story can be serialized for seven years? !

"Yes, in seven years, the world's number one detective in the manga world has also been promoted from high school to high school!" Edogawa said in a random way. Shima Atsushi's expression, "Don't think about too rude things, Atsushi-san, isn't it normal for seven years~?"

It took me seven years to get promoted from high school to high school sophomore. What's normal? It's not normal at all!

Beichuan Xingji explained: "It's a monthly update, plus various special chapters, so the serialization has not been finished until now, but the author has the idea of ​​finishing this one as soon as possible and opening a new issue. Mr. Ranpo should be able to do it soon." See Mr. Detective and Miss Cattail walking into the palace of happiness together."

"No way, the author will have more exciting new material soon!" Perhaps because the manga he likes won't end, Mr. Ranpo looked very happy. He put his hands behind his back, suddenly lazily "Turn left at the next intersection, the guy in trouble is coming."

"Hey? Good Mr. Ranpo!" Atsushi Nakajima had to think of Ryunosuke Akutagawa when he mentioned "troublesome guy", so although turning left at the next intersection is not the best route to the Armed Detective Agency, follow Detective Edogawa instructed to turn.

Kitagawa Seiji had no objection, and calmly followed the command of the famous detective. He knew a little better than Nakajima Atsushi. The "troublesome guy" that Edogawa Ranpo said was not Akutagawa Ryunosuke at all, but he was also in the port Mafia. Zhizi Bai Ze, one of the five major cadres.

It has been a long time since Beichuan Xingji has experienced the feeling of one person logging on multiple accounts at the same time. For the time being, he is still a little dizzy with synchronous viewing angles, not to mention the fact that one viewing angle is on a speeding locomotive, and the other viewing angle is walking slowly and calmly. Contradictory points of view.

It’s okay when the tuba and trumpet are too far away, the strangeness of this perspective will be weakened a bit. For example, when the function of one person playing two roles was just restarted, the tuba was in Tokyo and the trumpet was in Yokohama, but now the distance is too close , the scenery seen from the angle of view is gradually the same, and 100% precise control is required, otherwise loopholes will be found in the eyes of people like Edogawa Ranpo.

The loopholes can be filled with known information, such as the excuse of the universal laboratory and the normal abnormality of the reunion, but it is best not to have any loopholes, otherwise it will be very troublesome to change the plot along the way.

Not long after they turned the corner, a blurry figure rushed past the intersection of the original road. Because the speed was too fast, only dark-colored cars, clothes and white hair could be seen, which were still blurred.

Atsushi Nakajima glanced back subconsciously, and because of the reason for the superpower tiger, he saw clearly, and said with emotion: "Recently, there seem to be a lot of drag racing in Yokohama."

"Ah, it's normal. Don't you think that the nights in Yokohama have been quiet recently? There have been almost no violent incidents." Edogawa Ranpo didn't look back. He raised his arms and put them behind his head, squinting his eyes. "So Mr. Huogou has really stopped barking recently, and his energy is also very strong. Mr. Dun has to be careful recently."

Ryunosuke Akutagawa and Ryunosuke Akutagawa seem to finally remember that he is also a member of Mafia at the port, Shirasawa Shirasawa, the patron saint of the night in Yokohama, rushes to beat all those who have broken the law, are breaking the law, or are trying to break the law. If they are not happy at night, If you meet a human tiger again during the day, you will really fight again.

"Hey, hey?" Atsushi Nakajima immediately turned to look at him, "Is it related to Akutagawa?"

Going out of this street, there happened to be a cone shop. Edogawa Ranpo and Kitagawa Xingji walked past at the same time. Kitagawa Xingji, who didn't know anything about Yokohama, didn't speak. Edogawa Ranpo continued: "Dun-kun hasn't Do you hear cats howling at night? Dazai-kun has been unable to sleep every day lately."

This Atsushi Nakajima knows that Osamu Dazai complained jokingly that he seemed to be marked by a cat, and he would smell the smell of cats nearby from time to time, and recently he began to lose sight of his tail, which made Mr. Kunikida jump his feet in anger, but recently There were not too many meows at night, and the cat raised by the detective agency might not have made too unbearable meows because it was a male three-coloured cat.

"Is there? It seems to be very quiet at night recently." Atsushi Nakajima thought for a while, "There seems to be no animal noises."

"Speaking of cats, how is Huahua doing recently?" Beichuan Xingji calmly changed the subject.

"Don't worry, even if the weather is very hot, Huahua still hasn't shed hair." Edogawa cheered wildly, "It's not an apple-flavored cone!"
