[Fumino] Peaceful life in Yokohama

According to the agreement, Oda Kai once again came to the world of Edogawa Ranpo.When he arrived, Edogawa Ranpo was eating red bean soup rice cakes in the store, the kind that only eats bean paste but not rice cakes.There are a few bowls that have been eaten next to them, and there are uneaten rice cakes in them, which seems to make people lose their appetite.

"It's not good to waste food." As soon as Oda Kai walked over, Edogawa Ranpo handed the spoon to Oda Kai's mouth.Oda Kai opened his mouth naturally and accepted the feeding.

After Edogawa Ranbo had eaten his fill, he raised his eyes to Oda Kai, with the corners of his mouth curled up, looking a little happy: "You are very punctual."

"Isn't it an appointment?" Oda Kai was a little strange.Now that we have made an appointment for this time, of course it is this time.How can you be late?

"Okay." Edogawa put down the bowls and chopsticks in a random manner: "It's almost time to go."

"Where are you going?" Oda Kai asked suspiciously.

Edogawa Ranpo said as a matter of course: "Of course I went to your world."

"what?"

"""

When Oda Kai brought Edogawa Ranpo back to his own world, he was still very happy.From Oda Kai's point of view, just like he went to the Ranpo world to play, Ranpo would also think of his world to play.It's just visiting, not settling down.He never thought of the possibility of not wanting to leave after Luanbu came.

When Umi Oda returned home with Ranpo Edogawa, there was no one in the house.Today is a working day, and he didn't go there until after school.Now several people in the detective agency are busy working in the detective agency.The follow-up of the Baiwu incident two days ago has not been dealt with yet. Everyone in the detective agency is working overtime, and the time to get off work is delayed every day.After all, this is no small matter.Shuji Tsushima is still recuperating in the hospital, and he won't be able to leave the hospital for ten days and a half months.Dazai Osamu is still in the company, busy with Oda Sakunosuke's new work.After he wrote most of the manuscript silently, Oda Sakunosuke took a little time to add it, and it was fine.In order to make up for his mistakes, Osamu Dazai has worked overtime for the last two days to work on the publication of this manuscript.

At this point in time, everyone is busy, only Oda Kai who is home from school is idle.

If it is not to pick up Ranpo, Oda Kai may go to the detective agency at this time, or he may go to the hospital to accompany Shuji Tsushima.In short, he can always find something to keep himself busy.

"Father and the others have something to do today, so they're not at home." Oda Kai picked up the shoes that Edogawa Ranpo had kicked off and put them neatly at the entrance, aligning them with his own shoes: "Shoes should be neatly placed." He said Frowning, he muttered.

"I know, I know." Edogawa walked into the clean room stepping on white socks in disorder.He walked into the living room, sat cross-legged on the plush carpet in the center of the living room, and picked up the newspaper on the coffee table by the way.

"Okay, okay, you don't need to greet me specially." Edogawa Ranpo raised his head and glanced at Oda Kai who brought some snacks from the kitchen, then lowered his head again, and quickly finished reading the latest newspaper: "The tall building disappeared ? Gas explosion? Does anyone really believe such a stupid reason?" He complained with a little disgust.

"After so many years, Yokohama is still so unstable." Edogawa Ranpo curled his lips: "So we still need Mr. Ranpo."

"I'm going out." Edogawa Ranpo stayed for a while and couldn't stay any longer. He jumped up from the carpet, grabbed the thick snacks on the table and quickly finished a piece: "Don't follow me .”

"Eh?" Oda Kai was confused: "Why?"

"Master Ranpo doesn't want to see you help others." Edogawa Ranpo curled his lips, speaking incomprehensible words that didn't make sense.

"What's wrong? Is Ranbu going out to fight someone? I can definitely help." Oda Kai was even more confused.What's wrong?Why is he helping others?

"You are such an idiot!" Edogawa Ranpo said angrily. "Anyway, you are not allowed to follow me." After saying that, he left angrily.

Oda Kai followed for two steps, Edogawa turned his head in Luanbo, and waved him to tell him not to follow.After a few times, Oda Kai gave up.Seeing Edogawa on the map walk farther and farther away, and finally left the detection range of the map, Oda Kai felt aggrieved.

What did he do wrong, why the little friend refused to play with him...

"Ranpo? Why are you here?" Fukuzawa Yukichi was a little surprised when he saw Edogawa Ranpo.At this point in time, Ranpo should be bored reading newspapers or eating snacks in the detective agency.Although today is a working day, there is no commission that requires random steps.The members of the agency were all busy dealing with the follow-up matters of the White Mist incident, and Ranbu had no interest in writing reports. Under such circumstances, he would usually be idle in the detective agency.

Fukuzawa Yukichi and other members of the detective agency never insisted on writing various reports indiscriminately.It is enough for him to solve the case well.

Fukuzawa Yukichi was not at the detective agency before, he had other things to do, and was about to return to the detective agency at the moment, when he saw Ranpo Edogawa on the street.

"Ah, I've been waiting for you for a while. Why are you so slow, uncle! I'm almost bored to death!" Edogawa Ranpo complained unhappily.

"Ah..." The title "uncle" is a bit distant for Fukuzawa Yukichi.Although a long time ago, when he and Ranpo first met, it was true that Ranpo had to call him uncle, but after the establishment of the detective agency, Ranpo obediently began to call him the president.

He realized that something was wrong, stared at Ranbu for a while, and found that Ranbu seemed to be a little shorter.Although Luanbu is not tall now, the Luanbu in front of him is even shorter. Thinking about it carefully, this height is more like Luanbu's state when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.As for the face...Frankly speaking, Luanbu's face looks younger than his peers since he realized it. Although Luanbu is 26 years old now, just looking at his face, people would believe that he is 16 years old.Even Fukuzawa Yukichi can hardly tell Ranpo's age from his face.

"You are not the Ranpo I know. Who are you?" Fukuzawa Yukichi asked.

"Don't ask such a simple question! In short, Ranpo-sama wants to join the detective agency, so give me the entrance test and take me in!"

Just... quite suddenly.Fukuzawa Yukichi looked at Ranpo and felt tired.For a moment, he seemed to have returned to the past when he was just entangled by Chaos Steps.When Luanbu was chattering after him, he imagined countless ways to throw him away, including but not limited to letting Luanbu fall into the manhole cover.Now, that feeling is back.

Is there any way to get rid of the troubles in front of you that seem to be the same as the disorderly steps when you were fifteen or sixteen years old?
