world's best detective agency

Compared with others, Kaito Kuroba is most concerned about the authenticity of gems.

His goal is Pandora, the stone of life that is rumored to shed tears of immortality when aimed at the moonlight.

With the same name as Pandora's Box, the gemstone will shed tears, and the function of teardrops is to make people immortal. It sounds super magical, right-but, his classmate, Koizumi Hongko is the orthodox heir of Red Magic, a genuine witch.

Active as Kidd's second generation, Kuroba Kaito has encountered even more magical things.

For example, Dr. Yushen from the Yushen Institute of Electronic Engineering took advantage of his low vigilance on the way from school, knocked him out, took him away, and made a robot that looked exactly like him.The crazy Dr. Yushen trapped him in the research institute, let the robot absorb his memory and knowledge, reproduce his demeanor and movements, and tried in vain to completely erase and replace him after the study was completed.

Even his childhood friend and his old enemy, whom he had placed high hopes on, did not realize that the one who went to school under his identity the next day was a robot whose function had yet to be perfected.

Really.

As expected of the idiot Aoko, a well-known overseas detective who does not match his name.

In the end, he still has to rely on himself to defeat the enemy handsomely and escape from the clutches of the devil.

Kuroba Kaito lowered his half-moon eyes.

——In short, this world is unscientific.

In addition to magic that is within reach, technology that is [-] times more advanced than the most cutting-edge, there are also little-known abilities.

In an unscientific world, using scientific magic to find the Stone of Life before the mysterious organization is what he will be busy with this year and even in the future.

However, Kaito Kuroba had never seen the Stone of Life.

After carefully studying the list of father's theft, it is not difficult to speculate that the characteristics of the Stone of Life should be a real gemstone that is big and shiny.

As for the types, rubies, diamonds, black pearls... He didn't know anything, so he could only get all of them.

He is a high school student. He has to go to school during the day and act as Kaito Kidd at night. Naturally, he can't often go abroad.Delaying studies for a few days is the next best thing.The point is that the neighbor responsible for arresting him, Nakamori Gin, will be suspicious.Therefore, gemstones in the country have become his focus.

The day before yesterday, he sent out a notice that he would go to pick up the world's largest emerald, Green Dream, which is currently located in Japan.

Now, Green Dream has lost its title of "World's Largest".

Kaito Kuroba, a gem expert, has "super reasoning" to identify the authenticity of gems at a glance.

The refracted light, transparency, color, texture, shape and texture can all prove that the photo is a priceless emerald.

Compared with the [-] yuan banknote, it can be seen that the size of this emerald is larger than that of Green Dream.The unique design and bright embellishments make this jewelry shine even more - it is no exaggeration to call it a more dreamy "green reality".

This jewel...belongs to Riko Mori, the world's number one detective agency.

Green is the color of the forest.

The owner's last name is fitting.

Kuroba Kaito realized later, the world's number one detective firm... The detective under his name, Edogawa Ranpo, is a celebrity in the Metropolitan Police Department who is far more famous than Kaitou Kidd.

Kaitou Kidd is the super thief in charge of the second investigation section, and Edogawa Ranpo is mainly active in the first investigation section.

It is rumored that Edogawa Ranpo has a pair of magical glasses, the effect of which is comparable to the magical conch shell that can go smoothly as long as you obey.

As long as Edogawa Ranpo puts on those glasses, the truth will be invisible.

——Edogawa Ranpo, who has the ability to see through the truth in a second, super reasoning.

Although ordinary people who don't know the supernatural ability, they all regard Edogawa Ranpo as a cute second-year-old genius.

However, he is the minority who knows the truth.

Without a down-to-earth investigation, it is undoubtedly a magical ability.

Uh... so that's it.

This time the challenger not only has the big gems he wants, but also "real materials".

Kuroba Kaito thought about it.

He must accept this extremely arrogant challenge. The problem is how to deal with the troublesome supernatural detective.

Before stealing the world's largest emerald, first steal Edogawa Ranpo's glasses.Or, he could just pretend to be Edogawa Ranpo, and he can do whatever he wants with his identity as a famous detective. Edogawa Ranpo's capriciousness is enough to keep Ginzo Nakamori talking at the dinner table until next year—before then , to do some necessary investigation first, such as Edogawa Ranpo's appearance, voice and thinking, as well as the composition of the world's number one detective agency, the location of personnel and gems.

Today is Sunday off.

Tomorrow is a closed Monday.

Kuroba Kaito acted immediately.

Taking advantage of the current news, the news is just a momentum, and the situation has not evolved into an uncontrollable situation. Let the arrogant "Kidd Buster" be caught off guard first.

The so-called famous detective is only a lucky person who has a god-given ability and can follow behind him to find fault.

His magic and wisdom are the art of science.

Kaito Kuroba put on his motorcycle helmet and his usual TA-Q-BIN work clothes, and drove to the legendary office.

Yukiko is busy dyeing Miyano sisters' hair, designing new hairstyles and images.

Akutagawa is sitting upright, like a solidified sculpture, his face is covered with dust and burnt stains, and he is staring at the door—Osamu Dazai is cooking super clear chicken, when the blade falls on the sticky board faintly There was a thud on the phone.

Based on her experience in cooking clear chicken, the thud sound was a bit too long.

It is enough to chop the chicken into fine pieces. What kind of "super method" is it? Chiriko is a little curious.

However, Toru Amuro just suggested that if you are going to eat it, it would be better not to watch the firing process of Osamu Dazai.

Chiriko was thoughtful, took out a tissue and handed it to Akutagawa, asking him to wipe his dusty face.

Akutagawa quietly glanced at her and took it.

"Okay," he said.

"There are also traces of fire on the coat. So, the Rashomon transformed from the coat...will it get dirty?" Chiriko asked softly.

"I'll leave it to the laundromat to do the laundry." Akutagawa coughed twice and replied.

"Oh. So, it will be dirty? Then if you dye your coat, you can see colorful Rashomon, right?" Chiriko diverted her thoughts.

After a while, Akutagawa responded softly.

Chiriko nodded, and continued the thought just now, "Then... Akutagawa-kun, if you draw flowers on your coat, no. Depending on your mood, you can draw lifelike tiger skins, cute anime images, or Your favorite sweets, for example, Dazai's face... Rashomon can also become cute, hearty, and scary, every day has a different feeling—"

Hearing this, Akutagawa resisted all over his face.

How can Rashomon use cute coats, anime images, and sweets that heal people? The style is very different.

Hearing Dazai Osamu, he showed even more displeasure, but also seemed a little happy.

"I don't need it," Akutagawa said in a low voice.

"It's just a suggestion. Because it has always been black, if it is suddenly changed to another style during a certain operation, it may have a miraculous effect that people will not recognize you. For example, this time you were photographed by the news Some people may recognize your iconic features. With your strength, it may not be necessary to do so. However, doing so may avoid some troubles." Although Akutagawa, who is at the top of the most wanted list, himself Enough has been caused.

The less trouble the better, it is the code of conduct for ordinary people.

And Akutagawa, not afraid of troubles, Rashomon can tear apart all troubles, even space.

Chiriko looked directly into Akutagawa's round eyes.

Round and big eyes are standard for the protagonists of shounen manga and shoujo manga.

Because the round eyes and round shape are the easiest to convey innocent and passionate emotions.

"...I don't need it. Ahem... If there is any trouble, then let it come directly to me—I will prove how powerful Rashomon is."

Akutagawa is determined.

"The general point of view is indeed to be proved by practical actions. However, whether a person is powerful or not is an objective fact. For example, the head of the grade will not be punished by the teacher just because he misses an exam and gets a zero. , Classmates and parents’ negation—it’s great, you don’t need to prove it by solving unnecessary troubles, because you can see it from your usual performance, it’s great.”

Chiriko stared at Akutagawa.

His eyes widened for a moment.

"You are in this position now because you are better than others, otherwise Rintaro-san would not trust you. I also gave you instructions to accept people because I trust your ability. What you want to prove is not Rashomon Rashomon is powerful. This fact will not change because of different people who evaluate it. Otherwise, if the enemy provokes and says you are weak, you will be weak. I think you are strong, and you are strong again. Your Strength, like Schrödinger's cat, is both weak and strong. What really proves - is that today's Rashomon can go further than yesterday, and you can stand on a more believable height, right?"

Chiriko said uncertainly.

"—This is my personal opinion. You can use it as another reference. Akutagawa-kun, if you are bored, you can browse the books on the bookcase at will."

Accompanied by the rhythm of thumping sounds, Poe, Yusaku Kudo, Conan, and Toru Amuro, who had disguised themselves, quickly processed the accumulated commissions according to the division of labor.

Houtaro is in charge of organizing and recording.

The high piles of entrustment contracts quickly decreased.

A high amount of entrustment fees will be credited quickly, alleviating the situation of insufficient cash flow.

If it is normal, Luanbu can see through the truth at a glance, she contacts the client, and Houtaro sorts out and updates in real time.

But now, the work of contacting the client is replaced by the super easy-to-use Toru Amuro.

The work progress of the three detectives was almost equal to that of one Luanbu.

Chiriko, who handed over the work, turned her head and saw that the office was the real and only pillar, and Ranpo was enjoying the rose mousse cake leisurely.

In order to ensure that all the freshly baked mousse cakes belong to him, Luanbu is like a cat whose dynamic vision can only barely capture the phantom. One bites first, and then eats up the layer full of rose petals, and then suddenly thinks I asked her if she wanted it.It's really... Chiriko is funny and helpless.

"The rose flavor is the worst, I don't want it next time. Mango and strawberry are good. The chocolate flavor is so sweet—it tastes sweet in my mouth. I want soda, Chiliko." After eating everything, he unceremoniously threw comments at Toru Amuro.

"I see, Ranpo-san." Toru Amuro who was talking on the phone smiled back.

Zhi Lizi went to get soda, and when he heard the doorbell, he opened the door first.

Standing outside the door was a teenager in T-Q-Bin overalls, wearing a baseball cap of the same color, pressing down his fluffy natural curly black hair, holding a cardboard box in both hands, and smiling sweetly and heartily at her.

"Ah, hello, this is Sensang's courier."

"I'm Mori." Chiriko looked at the stamped receipt, and the sender used a code name that she couldn't decipher for a moment, Phantom Child Abandoned by God.

"Please sign for acceptance, sign here." The boy pointed to the lower right corner and handed over a pen.

Zhilizi took it and met the opponent's eyes.

"We met yesterday, right? I was in the car and greeted you on the side of the road?"

Kaito Kuroba, who was disguised as a TA-Q-BIN employee, kept a poker face full of smiles, recalled it, and suddenly realized.

The moment he opened the door, he recognized the young woman across from him, and was slightly startled for a moment.Yesterday, he was on the side of the road, and saw a private car from a distance. Three people in the car looked over, one smiling brightly, one frowning tightly, and one wide-eyed in surprise.

The one with the brightest smile is... Chiriko Mori who owns the world's largest emerald.

Just from the far side, I remembered him accurately and discovered it.
