world's best detective agency

When Chiriko found the scissors in the bathroom, there was a new mail notification.

The sender is Poe.

Edgar Allan Poe, who is similar to Edogawa Ranpo, is an American detective and a giant of knowledge.

The reasoning writer with the same name is the pioneer of American detective novels.

There are countless writers influenced by it, including Edogawa Ranpo and Arthur Conan Doyle, referred to as Edogawa Conan.

Especially the former, Hirai Taro's pen name, Edogawa Ranpo, is taken from the homonym of Edgar Allan Poe-contrary to her familiar relationship, this Poe is a super admirer of Ranpo.

It's like Osamu Dazai and Akutagawa whose relationship is reversed.

It's hard for Chiriko to say, Poe or Akutagawa, who will win the first cooking competition.

Akutagawa persevered.The same is true for Poe, whose persistence and sincerity are touching.

The mailboxes of the world's number one detective agency are open to the public, and they often receive invitations for challenges and reasoning games.

Poe impresses Zhilizi.As an intellectual giant in the United States, Poe studied Japanese diligently and researched carefully. In order to design a challenge letter in the language Ranpo is most familiar with—the first challenge letter sent by Poe was a Japanese text to fill in the blanks.

Zhi Lizi scanned it, and the vocabulary of the Japanese crash course is limited, and the thinking is limited to common sense.

Breaking away from ordinary thinking, there can be as many as dozens or even hundreds of answers to this text filling in the blanks.

Chiriko quickly gave answers in ten different fields, such as the law she is good at, the weapons that Matsuda Jin usually comes into contact with, and the algebra that Kunikida substitutes for, with a list of books that please continue to work hard.There is no special arrangement, but the name of the textbook and the recommended reading list of Houtaro at that time were copied.

Only with sufficient vocabulary and knowledge reserves can we compile a challenge book that is beautiful enough to satisfy Ranbu for a second.

Therefore, Zhilizi sprinkled a little water with the mentality of looking forward to the free growth of recyclable leeks.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, she received a precious gift from overseas.

A classical desk and a row of American-style bookcases are furniture still used by the office, with fine and soft textures.

Chiriko was stunned for a moment.

Not to mention the expensive furniture itself, the shipping cost from overseas to the office is not cheap.

The card that arrived with the thank you gift was bilingual in Japanese and English.English cursive characters are fluent and elegant, while Japanese characters are clumsy and funny.Despite Poe's best efforts to write correctly, it still looks crooked.Poe thanked her for waking him up for his reply. Even she could give ten kinds of answers at will, let alone the world's No.1 detective Luanbu. Please be sure to accept the thank you gift. The recommended books are very useful, and he has bought them all. Seriously reading - textbooks are different from masterpieces, including teaching materials edited by professors themselves and updated in real time every semester. For Poe overseas, the difficulty of getting started has doubled.

Actually got all of them.

This is undoubtedly a rich man who is full of enthusiasm for Luanpo, detached and polite.

In short, Chiriko extracts key information: please continue to guide him in the challenge book until he can match Ranpo.

Zhilizi stared at the two trucks of heavy and unique tuition fees, and waved her hands to let the delivery staff move in and set them up.

Today, Poe is familiar with allusions and catchphrases, and he is ready to be a teacher.

Zhilizi clicks on the email from Kaipo.

There is a [-]-hour time difference between the United States and Tokyo, so emails are more convenient than calls.

Contact is basically when she wakes up and before going to bed.She would answer early in the morning and get a reply from Poe in the evening.Occasionally, when it was really difficult to explain an uncommon mistake by email, she dialed Poe's number, and he was taken aback.

When he picked it up, Zhilizi heard a low "hu——" and Poe's voice was barely audible.

In contrast to the lively, loud Ranpo, Poe is a social terror.

Zhilizi dialed today's sharing of social fear.

Poe saw an interesting speculative serial novel written by Kindaichi in the magazine "Wild Times".One episode is currently published.

Now, rather than her recommending books to Poe, Poe is actively collecting and recommending books to her.

I know, I'll check it out sometime.

Speaking of wild, can you accurately distinguish between wild and wild?

Zhilizi typed a reply, and heard Pata Pata's footsteps.

Luanbu with a porcelain cup soon appeared at the door of the bathroom.

He walked over quickly, and the porcelain cup was full of black tea with milk, a few drops splashed out and landed on the back of his hand.

He lowered his head and licked it, and proudly handed over the porcelain cup, "Zhilizi, you are so slow, I've made it all - this is what I made, adding a quarter of milk and a cube of sugar, It's a bit sweet, but not too sweet, and it goes well with the sweet, sweet red bean cake. I will eat this with red beans later, it won't be too sweet, and it won't dilute the sweetness of red beans."

"what."

Chiriko took the lingering aroma of milk black tea.

The hand that was handed over by Chaos has a similar smell.

Luanbu looked straight at her.

Zhi Lizi took a sip, and the green eyes on the opposite side flickered.

"Then—Chiriko, it's only three things, my needs can no longer be ignored and interrupted! Next time you accompany me on a business trip, I will give you a special bonus and transportation allowance, anyway, I don't need it. Go to Kyushu to solve the commission, the time is already It’s just that I spend more on moving. The accompanying person can’t think of interesting topics, and when I talk, he just nods blankly and agrees. The “lying gopher game” reaction is more interesting, and I can’t buy warm ones. food! "

The first time I asked, "You can do it next time, Chiriko~", I didn't get any response.

The second time was "I want to eat it, and I want you to eat it without any effort", which was interrupted by Conan who was blank.

Luanbu pouted, expressing his displeasure confidently.

"The latest handheld game, I have cleared all the levels. There is nothing to pass the time. It is boring and troublesome. I will not follow you. I can barely bear the boring and disliked work. Moreover, I am also very useful, soaked milk The black tea is sweet enough, right—in short, I am a unparalleled detective who can solve cases in a flash, and you can enjoy the scenery and my super reasoning leisurely!"

As he spoke, Luanbu evoked a composed smile in a brisk tone.

Like Osamu Dazai, he can induce the other party to say what he wants on the psychological level without any trace, and he can do it.

However, Chiriko appreciates straightforward people more, so he has a unique weapon: having a good time, expressing anticipation, joy and anger unabashedly.

"...Then do you want to eat homemade hot spring eggs tomorrow?" Chiriko asked.

After getting an affirmative answer, Luanbu raised a satisfied smile, "That's whatever. Any troubles or interesting incidents recently?"

"I haven't had time to sort it out yet, so just watch it."

Zhilizi put down the porcelain cup, handed the mobile phone to Ranbu, and asked Ranbu to stand up straight and straighten his head.

Ranpo obediently looked down through the mail.Zhi Lizi brushed his uneven forehead hair lightly, feeling cold and wet.She flattened it in the palm of her hand, and carefully began to trim it to the length that did not cover her eyes.

Luanbu glanced at the reply to Poe, and turned back to the previous email, which was a recruitment request for a headhunter.

He took a quick look, raised his eyes to stare at her, and concluded: "Chilizi, are you fishing?"

"Since it's free fish, why not use it?" Chiriko asked lightly, smiling softly.

"Phew - I really can't do anything about you, you still have to rely on me! But, it's really unforgivable, super annoying, I agreed to your plan right away, but you want me to coax you with milk and black tea. Hmph , the rest of this cup is mine!"

Wild animals are living things that grow naturally or have not been domesticated.

Wild animals refer to creatures that were abandoned or escaped, and originally had owners.

For example, a wild dog is a wild dog, a stray dog.

Poe pondered the difference between wild and wild, and searched the dictionary.

On the table is the draft of the challenge book that is being designed, and the textbook that he carefully took study notes, all of which are recommended by Chiriko.

His pet, Carl the raccoon, chews his food, making tiny chewing noises.

The world's number one detective agency has his only old enemy and friend.

Poe closed the dictionary and sighed to Carl, who was concentrating on eating: "It's so sad...why is my natural curly roll disliked? Woo...does it have to be straightened..."
