Everyone in Yokohama thinks I'm a villain

Listening to these three chatting is more difficult than guessing riddles.

When Atsushi Nakajima was about to give up thinking, Osamu Dazai finally reminded him mercifully: "The truth of this incident is actually much simpler than imagined."

Atsushi Nakajima hesitated: "But the client said that he saw aliens at home... What the hell is this?"

Osamu Dazai asked back, "Atsu-kun, do you think aliens really broke into her house?"

Atsushi Nakajima: "Probably, I think it should be impossible."

Osamu Dazai nodded and said with a smile, "Then this is the answer."

Atsushi Nakajima: "Huh?"

"There are no aliens at all, it's all an illusion produced by the client."

Kunikida Doppo: "Illusion?!"

"There is an illegal stronghold for making amphetamines near the client's residence," Edogawa Ranbu said slowly, "these drugs have probably been leaked recently—it just so happens that the south wind has been blowing these days, so The volatilized drug flowed into the client's room.

"Amphetamine is addictive and is a prohibited drug. It will affect the human nerve center and has a strong hallucinogenic effect. That's why the client keeps having nightmares. This is actually an adverse reaction to the drug. , and hallucinations."

The black-haired and blue-eyed detective leaned on the sofa: "The person who broke into her house was actually a researcher from that stronghold, probably because she did something after going to Kazama to make him suspicious, worried that she would notify the police .”

"So that's it!" Kunikida Doppo suddenly figured out the whole thing, "The intruder's footsteps that the client heard were actually the researcher who was afraid that she would call the police and wanted to sneak in to investigate her call records... because he was wearing a White coat, so under the influence of drugs, the client imagined it as a white alien."

"Yes, that's it." Kazama and Chuan looked at him with a smile, "Then I'll leave it to the Armed Detective Agency to arrest those drug makers."

Without further ado, after Kunikida Doppo contacted the government, he took Atsushi Nakajima to prepare the arrest plan.

After Kazukawa Kazama, Ranpo Edogawa, and Osamu Dazai were left in the detective agency, Kazukawa Kazama asked, "Is there any new progress in the previous murder case?"

Four or five years ago, he and Osamu Dazai had a completely opposite position of one white and one black. Now, Dazai Osamu is on the white side, and he is a wanted criminal. Obviously, it is still not a relationship that can share information, but he asked The words are very familiar.

Osamu Dazai raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you worried that I'm with the prisoner now?"

He paused, and spread his hands: "The Armed Detective Agency should not have much more information than you—after all, there is a very clever mentor behind that prisoner."

After the "conviction" incident, the Armed Detective Agency conducted a detailed investigation of the assassinated wealthy businessman, but in the end it only verified some speculations made by Osamu Dazai, and the case itself did not make any substantial progress.

"Well, I see," Kazama and Chuan were not disappointed when they didn't find out any information, and crossed their fingers, "But it's no wonder, since the other party's purpose is to convict, and they left such information, naturally they don't Possibly caught so quickly. I'm looking forward to what he does next."

The young man's tone was gentle, calm and breezy, as if the murderer made a few more lives and it didn't hurt.

Osamu Dazai looked at Kazama and Kazukawa with a playful tone: "This incident has a lot to do with you, but you are not worried at all."

The astrologer smiled back: "How come? After all, this is a kind invitation from others, and of course I will take it seriously."

"..."

Osamu Dazai looked at him and said after a long silence, "Of course that would be the best."

Because the case involves drug production, there may be many involvements, so the government attaches great importance to this case.The arrest of the group of drug-making criminals was also carried out very quickly.

Nakajima Atsushi and Kunikida completed the arrest of the gang alone, and returned to the Armed Detective Agency after completing the transcripts, but it was only in the afternoon.

When he walked into the Armed Detective Agency, Kazama Kazukawa was playing shogi with Edogawa Ranpo, and Dazai Osamu was standing beside Kazama Kazukawa watching.

Atsushi Nakajima didn't know much about shogi, and his only knowledge came from the TV footage that the director of the orphanage showed them.

He walked up to several people, peeked at the chessboard and quietly observed their expressions, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

Dazai Osamu and Kazama Kazukawa seem to get along fairly well, after all, they are not always confronting each other like before.

On the other side, Kazama and Chuan moved the silver on the chessboard to the 2nd and [-]th place.

They played fast chess, and there was almost no time for thinking, which made Atsushi Nakajima, a novice, look very strenuous.

Ranpo Edogawa hit the gold at 5 five.

Osamu Dazai turned his head and smiled at Kazama and Chuan: "I lost."

Kazama Kazukawa raised his hand and said helplessly, "I admit defeat."

Generally speaking, shogi would leave enough time for both sides to think, but this time they played fast chess, and the thinking time for each move was only a few seconds, and mistakes were inevitable under high-speed calculations.If it were an ordinary person, it would have been exhausting for a few hours, not to mention that the opponent was Ranpo Edogawa.

Moreover, for Kazama and Chuan, it would be best if they lost this game.

Edogawa Ranpo was in a good mood: "As the opponent of a famous detective, this result is already qualified - one month's comics, don't forget."

Kazama Kazukawa first responded to Edogawa Ranpo with a smile, then looked at Dazai Osamu, and responded to the other party's words just now: "...you didn't notice the mistake of hitting Katsura before, did you?"

Osamu Dazai had been watching the game during the chess game, and when he made the move that led to his current defeat, Osamu Dazai didn't have any objections.

In this way, Osamu Dazai was of course among the losers in this chess game.

Osamu Dazai who was exposed was not guilty: "The person sitting here playing chess is you and not me."

"Is this already lost?" Atsushi Nakajima looked at the chess game curiously.

Yu Mingming, with Kazama Kazukawa as the main general, still has room to move.

"Hand crossing with 115 hands." Osamu Dazai walked around to Atsushi Nakajima, reached out and knocked on the chessboard, "——This game continues, Kazama-kun will definitely be crossed to death by Mr. Ranpo at the 115th move."

Atsushi Nakajima stretched out his hand and looked at his fingers, in a trance: "The 115th move??"

Why do you play chess so high-end?Is it really possible for humans to predict the content after more than 100 steps? !

Atsushi Nakajima had already struggled to imagine the situation after three or four moves, and the 115 moves were simply beyond the scope of human cognition.

He turned his head to look at Kazama and Chuan, but found that the other party's expression was as usual, and he still seemed to be able to do a job with ease.

...Well, Kazama-san is indeed a person who can be friends with Ranpo-san.

Kazuma Kazukawa asked Nakajima Atsushi: "Has the prisoner been successfully arrested?"

Atsushi Nakajima nodded: "Yes. They are indeed manufacturing drugs such as amphetamine. There are a total of eight main culprits, all of whom have been caught."

"Thank you." Kazama Kazukawa stood up, "Since the incident has been successfully resolved, I will take my leave today."

As Kazama Kazukawa was talking, he suddenly noticed the sight of Edogawa Ranpo opposite him.

——It seems that even if you lose to the other party's manga for a month, you still can't get away with it.

"Then if I have a chance next week, shall I visit again?" Kazukawa Kazama asked Edogawa Ranpo.

After all, he pretended to be troubled, "After all, I am still a wanted criminal. If I am too blatant, it will be difficult for the Supernatural Secret Service Division."

Kunikida Doppo, who was sorting out the case materials on the side, couldn't help but be speechless in his heart.

What Kazama Kazukawa said almost directly admitted that the Supernatural Secret Service Division had learned that he was in Yokohama, but was secretly covering him up.

After a long while, Edogawa Ranpo grudgingly hummed.

Kazama and Kawakawa smiled silently.

Before leaving, he thought of one more thing, and called Atsushi Nakajima back, "Isn't Your Excellency Fukuzawa at the Armed Detective Agency?"

Seeing him asking about Fukuzawa Yukichi, Osamu Dazai became interested.

Atsushi Nakajima was surprised: "Yes, the president has something to go out today. Mr. Kazama, do you have anything to do with the president?"

Kazama and Kawakawa glanced at Dazai Osamu with a half-smile, and then said under the suspicious gaze of the other party: "That's really a pity."

The astrologer said softly: "If Your Excellency Fukuzawa comes back, please tell him—I think for the sake of the reputation of the Armed Detective Agency, it's better not to hire people with ulterior motives."

Osamu Dazai with ulterior motives: "..."
