The world's No.1 detective doll

After the few sparring matches without any suspense, what is to be done is the free training of the candidates.

There is less than half of the time left for the department work to end, and the partner training list that Coach Sakaki made for Sakura has not been completed, so Sakura, who has nothing to do, can only sit obediently and watch them train.

"What is Mr. Ranpo doing?"

"I'm replying to Tanizaki's email. Just now you put it here and didn't reply to his message, so he sent the email to this detective."

"Is there a new commission?"

"Hmm... It seems that a guy named Suzuki invited many famous detectives to protect his gem."

Suzuki?gem?

Sounds a bit familiar.

"That Suzuki...is a Mr. Suzuki Jirokichi?"

"how do you know?"

Ha, sure enough.

"Ranpo-san should know my classmate Sonoko Suzuki, right?"

"Ah."

"That Mr. Suzuki is her uncle. Mr. Suzuki likes to collect all kinds of gems and things like that, and has always disliked Kaito Kidd, so he often uses gems as bait to challenge Kaito Kidd, and threatens to catch him. Hold him."

But it never worked out.

"Hey~ This detective knows that Kaitou Kidd, it's quite interesting."

"So Suzuki-san is challenging Kaitou Kid this time?"

"Well, Suzuki's bait this time is a gem called 'Eye of the Idol'. I heard from Tanizaki that Suzuki bought it for $190 million."

"190?!?!"

190 million US dollars is equivalent to [-] million yen!

How rich is the Suzuki consortium?So, Suzuki-san's house...

Sakura swallowed.

"Then when is the entrustment time?"

"Just this week, Phantom Thief Kidd has already sent an announcement letter, Suzuki invited us and others to go to Suzuki Group the day after tomorrow."

"Then, are there any other members with us?"

"Yes, it's a mirror flower~"

awesome!

Yingzi is secretly happy, and together with the lovely and reliable Kyoka, the commission will be completed very smoothly!

As if seeing what Yingzi was thinking, Ranbu puffed his mouth in displeasure.

"It was successfully completed because of the detective's commission!"

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yingzi quickly recovered, "Of course the No. 1 detective in the world has contributed a lot."

"Humph."

Hearing what Yingzi said, Luanbu's face eased a lot. Although he turned his head away awkwardly, Yingzi still vaguely saw the triumphant expression on his face.

Yingzi laughed, she really looked like a child, a good detective.

"Don't you secretly say that detective Ben is like a child?"

"Uh... no, no."

Was discovered.

"Senior Haruhi!"

"Ah yes!"

A thin layer of sweat floated on the forehead of Feng, who had just finished training, and his face was a little red, "Senior Ninzu asked if you could join us for the previous ball-catching practice."

"of course."

The practice of catching the ball can also be regarded as a sparring game that does not count points and wins or loses. Specifically, Yingzi holds the initiative and plays the role of serving to hit the tennis ball in different directions. Observation and own reflexes to catch the ball.

Such exercises not only help with insight and reflexes, but also train speed, strength and endurance well.

The first trainer is naturally the experienced Ninzu who came to demonstrate for others.

After standing firmly in the court, he pushed his glasses with patience, "Put in a little water, don't make me feel so embarrassing."

"Is that... the same as before?"

"Ah, it's the same as before, no need for that."

Although she doesn't use supernatural powers, the transformation and strengthening of her body by [Superior Wuji] also makes Yingzi's physical fitness far superior to that of ordinary people, so it is more than enough to accompany a few freshmen to practice tennis.

"Then I..."

"At least let me touch the ball."

"OK then."

'boom--'

The ball is touched, but...

The tennis ball landed steadily in the center of the racket, but the heavy momentum was too strong, and the arm of Renzu could not bear such force at all, and the dark blue racket just came off and flew out.

Renzu shook his numb arm with a helpless expression, "I still haven't escaped such a fate."

"Is it still too much? Then I... just take it easy."

After a few attempts, Yingzi finally grasped the strength she should have, and Shinozu let out a sigh of relief and began to concentrate on training.

'Snapped--'

'Snapped--'

'Snapped--'

The bright yellow ball quickly flew in different directions, panting and chasing the tennis ball and hitting back non-stop.

Although the angles of Ninjutsu returning the ball are extremely tricky, Sakurako can always appear in that position before the tennis ball hits the ground, and hit back effortlessly.

Yue Ren on the side blinked.

"That's called playing tennis. What just happened was a completely meaningless and one-sided massacre, right?"

"……seems like it."

A game in 10 minutes, the ending is undoubtedly 6:0... It is indeed a massacre and a beating.

The short but fulfilling time for the club is coming to an end soon. I don't know if the tennis skills of the Ice Empress candidates have improved, but their psychological ability to withstand stress has indeed improved a lot.

"Dessert~dessert~"

Ranpo became happy at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Dessert~dessert~"

The one who had the same reaction as Ranpo was Jiro who had just woken up from his sleep.

"Since I promised you, then I won't make a slip of the tongue, huh? Huadi."

"Yes."

"Let's go to the one I used to go to, Atobe~ The mousse snacks at that place are really--great!"

"Hmph, got it, let's go!"

The dessert shop that Jiro mentioned is not far from Bingdi, and it takes only ten minutes to walk there.

Walking with so many youthful teenagers, Yingzi felt a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, she was not too awkward with the familiar footsteps and chaotic steps by her side.

There were not enough tables in the dessert shop to seat so many people, so everyone had to sit in a few adjacent seats.

Shinozu and Sakurako chose a corner table and sat down, and after making sure that everyone's eyes were no longer here, Sakurako carefully placed Ranbu next to the small piece of strawberry cake like a thief.

Holding his chin up, he watched Sakura's movements, "This feeling...is really amazing."

"Ok?"

"You guys seem like the kind of shady lovers who got together behind your parents' and friends' backs."

"Hey hey?"

Yingzi blushed suddenly, her ears felt a little hot.

"Well, just kidding."

"Oh, even a lover detective wouldn't find such an idiot~"

...?

"Mr. Ranpo!"

"The detective is right again, you are an idiot."

Yingzi was angry and ashamed, her face was blushing and she was at a loss.

Seeing Sakurako's reaction, Ninzu probably guessed what Ranpo said, Ninzu lowered his eyes slightly, and evoked a smile with no clear meaning.

"Speaking of lovers, ah, Sakurako, your ideal type is definitely not Mr. Edogawa."

?

Random steps: Ears stand erect like antennae.

As the protagonist, Sakurako blinked for no reason, "My ideal type?"

"Yes."

Noticing that the direction of the puppet's face on the table changed slightly, the smile on Shinobu's face deepened.

"I remember you said before that your ideal type is tall and handsome, with a mature and steady personality, who can't be like a child, doesn't need to be particularly smart, but must be gentle and considerate, will take care of you, comfort you, and is good at The kind of good family man who does housework and cooks."

Random steps: ...

"Hey?" Sakurako was puzzled, "Did I say that?"

"Of course."

"But……"

"Well, maybe it's been too long so you forgot."

"Really……?"

But she still doesn't know what her ideal type is!but……

"Sounds a bit like Kunikida-san..."

"Ah?"

"..."

"Tanizaki-san seems to be a little too..."

"Ah."

"..."

"Speaking of which, Yushi, you can also be counted among them."

"..."

"..."

Endurance: You don't have to.

Relentlessly stretched and pushed his glasses, "Since there are so many qualified people around you, then you can take good care of them."

"Of course, except me."

'clang'

The crisp sound of the porcelain plates colliding interrupted the conversation between the two, and Yingzi was taken aback.

"What's the matter, Mr. Ranpo?"

"..."

Sitting chaotically facing the wall, Sakurako couldn't see his expression.

"Mr. Ranpo?"

“This cake is not good at all!”

"Do you want to change it?"

"don't want--!"

"That……"

"The detective is going home!"

"Huh? But..."

"Now! Go home!"

"Ok."

Sakurako explained the situation to Atobe helplessly, packed up her things briefly, and then got up with random steps.

Shinozu waved at Yingzi with a triumphant smile, "Go back first, I'll be with them, don't forget what I said, take care of it."

"Go away, idiot—!"

Although she didn't know what happened, Ranpo's unhappiness was too obvious, Sakurako vaguely sensed something was wrong.

"Mr. Ranpo?"

"..."

Even though he was sitting on Sakurako's shoulder, Ranbu still tried his best not to look at her.

Why are you suddenly unhappy?Is it really because the cake is too bad to eat?But she felt fine when she ate it just now...

Isn't this store recommended by Jiro?Could it be that the cake was not to Ranpo's taste?

No, she clearly ordered the strawberry cake that Ranbu likes, and before ordering, she even made sure that the dried fruits on top were Ranbu's favorite.

Or was she too focused on talking to Ninzu and didn't take care of it?

But Luanpo has always been very focused when eating cakes and doesn't need others to talk to him.

Sakura scratched her head.

"Mr. Ranpo?"

"..."

"Mr. Ranpo? Did I do something wrong?"

"..."

"Don't be silent, Mr. Ranpo."

"Noisy!"

Hearing Ranbu's response, Yingzi was slightly relieved.

"Can you tell me what happened, Mr. Ranpo?"

"This detective doesn't know either! Anyway, this detective just doesn't want to talk to you now!"

"why?"

"do not know!"

"Even [Super Reasoning] doesn't work?"

Ranbu pursed his mouth angrily.

hateful!

He clearly used a different ability, but why can't he deduce anything? !

This feeling of ignorance is too bad!

"How does this detective know? There is only a blank in this detective's brain!"

"Huh? How did this happen?"

Sakura tilted her head strangely.

What is it that even the world's No. 1 detective can't deduce?
