The world's No.1 detective doll

"Mori Ogai, put away your dirty thoughts, I will never allow you to hurt any of my members."

"Oh~ I told you that I only like girls under the age of 12~"

Sakurako: ...

"Meow."

"Come and play with me!"

Just when Sakurako was at a loss in this tit-for-tat atmosphere, Alice suddenly moved her arms, and then dragged her away in a direction different from the detective agency without any explanation.

The cat in her arms didn't want to leave because of the change of her position, but nestled comfortably in Yingzi's arms and closed her eyes.

This is a relatively prosperous commercial street. Alice led her on the sidewalk, looking left and right at the shops on both sides.

Now is the rush hour for work and school. Many people with briefcases or uniforms rush by on the street, and the customers in various shops are a little deserted.

"Hey--Minister! Vice-Minister Sanada! Why are you here?"

"Well, because I went to pick up my sister after school yesterday, I didn't have time to buy the tape I wanted, so I took this time to take a look."

"...Too, do you eat such a sweet and greasy thing all morning?"

"It's only after supplementing with sugar that I can work hard for a day's activities!"

What a familiar line.

Yingzi heard the sound thoughtfully and looked over, it was a group of teenagers standing in front of the tennis supplies store.

Tennis...

"Huh? Alice—"

Just an inattention, Alice let go of her, and ran straight towards a store.

It's not a dessert shop, a doll shop or something like that, but the tennis shop that Sakurako's eyes touched just now.

Could it be...does Alice play tennis too?

At the same time, the flower cat in Yingzi's arms suddenly raised its head vigilantly, and then jumped away from her arms and ran to an unknown direction.

"Cat cat..."

"Wow - this pendant is so cute!"

Sakurako heard the sound and looked.

Ah, it turned out that I fell in love with a tennis ball-shaped pendant.

"Does Alice like this?"

It's really cute, a fluffy yellow ball the size of a walnut.

Do you want to buy one for Yushi and Kenya?

"Wow - this racket is good - handsome!"

"Chiya! Be careful not to bump into anyone!"

All of Sakurako and Alice's attention was focused on those cute ornaments, and they didn't pay any attention to the situation behind them.

In the second after the boy's panic sounded, Yingzi was hit and staggered several steps forward. Carl and Luanbu on her shoulders almost fell off, and even Alice in front of her couldn't move. Steady, fell to the ground.

"Ah—it hurts!"

Yingzi was stunned for a while, and she didn't react until Alice, who was sitting on the ground, reached out to her with an unhappy face.

"Is Alice okay?"

"It hurts!"

Several teenagers surrounded them with apologetic faces, looking at them with a hint of worry in their eyes.

"I'm very sorry that our team members have caused you trouble, are you okay?"

The leader was a young man with short blue-purple hair, and the young man called 'Chi Ye' who had just fluffed his feet stood behind him with a panicked expression.

Yingzi helped Alice up, and then turned her eyes to the boys, "Oh, it's okay, it's okay, don't take it too far..."

"Stupid! I obviously fell in pain!"

Alice rubbed her butt, pursed her lips and glanced at Akaya dissatisfied.

"Chiya! Still haven't apologized!"

Akaya was suddenly pulled in front of Sakurako and Alice by the boy in the hat. He blushed and bent down to bow at ninety degrees.

"Yes, I'm sorry! I'm really sorry for bumping into you!"

"It's really okay, don't worry too much about it."

Sakura waved again and again, but Alice glanced at the boy in the hat, and then shrank her neck.

"What a fierce uncle."

"..."

"..."

Big, uncle?

No, although the expression is a little serious, but no matter how you look at it, you are still a newborn, right?

At least he's still wearing his nascent uniform...

"Alice, don't, don't say that!"

"Hahahahaha..."

Yukimura on the side laughed first, he put his finger on his lips and smiled lightly.

"Sanada's appearance is indeed easy to cause misunderstandings by others."

Yingzi's expression was a little embarrassed, and she didn't know whether to accept their apology or apologize to the other party.

"Buy me that pendant!"

Alice quickly forgot what happened just now, pulled Sakurako and walked towards the hanging ornament again.

"Ah good."

Taking a pendant from the shelf, Sakurako remembered that the last time Yushi did ask her to see if she had the tape he used when she came to Yokohama last time.

Several tennis supplies stores near Bingdi have been short of goods recently. Many styles of tapes and rackets are in short supply.

"Hmm... Alice wait for me, I'll go and take a look at the tape."

"Hurry up."

Different brands and types of tape also have certain differences in feel and weight. Sakurako, who has accompanied Yushi and Kenya to train tennis since she was a child, knows this well. She bent down slightly on the tape shelf to look for it.

Hmm... is there any difference between the two?

Yingzi is two different styles of the same brand. She holds the two tapes separately and carefully distinguishes the difference between them.

"Are you choosing tape? Well... these two models are really easy to make people wonder how to choose."

Ying Zi heard the sound and turned her head to look, it was the boy with blue-purple short hair just now.

She was not surprised by the young man's conversation, and showed a slightly troubled expression, "Well... I don't think there is any difference between the two."

The boy's appearance has a soft and friendly aesthetic feeling, which makes it difficult for people to feel alienated from him.

Yukimura pointed to the one on the upper left of her, "This one is lighter and thinner, and the texture is more delicate. It is a tape more suitable for girls."

Yingzi blinked, "Ah, no, I don't play tennis, this is for my brother."

"Ah, is that so?"

Yukimura smiled slightly, "Then the other one is very suitable."

"However, that one is not suitable for the power type."

Power type?

Sakura looked up and thought about it.

Yushi shouldn't belong to... the power type, right?

"Well, thank you."

"It doesn't matter, just take it as an apology for the collision with Chi Ye just now."

Said, Yukimura also took one of the tape she chose from the shelf.

Yingzi nodded politely towards the other party, and then looked around the shop.

"Alice?"

"The little girl? It's over there."

The narrow-eyed, thin and tall boy seemed to have noticed Yingzi's movements, and pointed at the red-haired boy at the door.

Taizheng squatted in front of Alice, with colorful candies inside.

"Ah, thanks."

"Alice sauce~"

When Alice was hesitating which color candy to take, a familiar voice came from not far from the street.

"Hmm...it's the idiot Rintaro."

Alice walked out slowly with her back behind her. Sakura paused, then turned and walked towards the cashier.

When the bill was settled and came out, there were no figures of Mori Ogai and Alice at the door, only the president stood at the door with arms folded.

have you left?

"You've been waiting for so long!"

"It's ok."

Fuze looked down at her shopping bag, then turned slightly, "Let's go."

The original work report has already been completed by Kunikida, and Sakurako only needs to do a simple physical examination today.

Since everyone in the detective agency has not yet figured out the reason why Ranpo turned into a doll, and there is an inseparable and irreplaceable relationship between Sakurako and Ranpo, so to be on the safe side, Sakurako and Ranpo will meet each other every week. Have a physical exam together in case anything goes wrong.

Yingzi's report came out soon, and Xie Ye glanced at it briefly, then he was taken aback, and took out the previous report for comparison.

"Sakura why..."

"what happened?"

"I gained a lot of weight."

"..."

That's right, her weight has skyrocketed since she met Ranpo.

As a puppet, Ranpo couldn't eat a whole portion, so most of the food went into Sakurako's stomach. Whether it was a daily meal or usual snacks and desserts, the amount was several times the original amount.

Hearing this, Kunikida walked over to take a look at Sakurako's medical report, and then frowned tightly.

Impressively written 42g behind the weight.

"Even if you gained a lot of weight, why are you so thin? Do you eat well?"

She really does!

Kunikida glanced at Sakurako.

It's hard to believe that this skinny girl can go straight up...

"...I always eat according to the nutrition chart given by Ms. Yosano."

"Well... that's true."

Not long after Yingzi joined the detective agency, Yosano and Yosano specially formulated a nutrition chart for her, which was nicknamed "too thin and weak to supplement nutrition".

In less than two months, she has gained four catties.

"Just eating is not enough! You also need to have proper exercise and exercise..."

Kunikida opened his notebook, frowning and chattering.

"..."

"..."

He exchanged glances with Yosano and Sakurako.

started again.

Yosano sighed, and directly dragged Yingzi into the medical room.

"……Hey!"

"What a worrying fellow."

Kunikida's voice was cut off outside the door, and the ears of the two of them became much clearer at once.

"Still don't have any physical characteristics."

Xie Yeshun picked up the report of Ranbu and looked at it, with a slightly worried expression on his face.

"It's not a supernatural power, nor is it a drug effect... Could it be something like magic?"

When it comes to magic, Yingzi subconsciously thinks of Yameng.

Is her... magic?

"It's not an option to go on like this. Go to the president and ask if you know anyone."

"President... will he know a magician?"

He tilted his head and thought about it with Xie Ye, "With the connections of the president, maybe there will be."
