world's best detective agency

The childish and upright words are like a cat's tail gently brushing, crispy and soft, and the tip of the heart is itchy.

The smell of sweets was wafting, Chiriko pressed her palm with her fingertips, trying to concentrate.This is an undisguised and blatant exchange, and only Ranpo can say "it's not impossible" in a serious and cute way.

"Since you are so passionate about promoting yourself, there is nothing I can do about it. After all, Ranbu's self-recommendation is not watery at all." Chiriko naturally showed a soft smile.

"Then, this is the last, one, one! This means that if I complete this item, I can get what I want in exchange! You can't go back on your word, Chiriko!"

The chaotic eyes burst out with bright light, and the corners of the mouth were raised in a whistling manner.

He unceremoniously directed Conan, who had changed into new clothes after taking a bath, and was standing on tiptoe to grab oolong tea.

"Others are not important, only this, please help Chiriko remember well!"

what?

As if the button to stop time was pressed, Conan's hand holding the tea leaves stopped in the air.

Since just now, he couldn't quite understand it—looking for a tiger?He hadn't heard any news about a zoo whose tigers had escaped.

Tigers are not raccoons, they are gentle creatures that have been domesticated and can be taken out to play.If someone witnesses tigers, lions and other creatures in the wild, it will definitely cause heated discussions on SNS immediately, overwhelming Kidd and the one billion yen incident. It is impossible for him to know nothing about it.

And Ranpo's order was to treat him as Chiriko's memo... right?

This is the only thing to help Chiriko remember well.

After Conan analyzed it carefully, the others are not important, ah——!

He remembered the subtle feeling when he entered the door. Zhilizi's explanation and introduction to him tonight were too detailed.For example, Poe found a new residence, the whereabouts of Osamu Dazai and the black cat, these are things that he does not need to know clearly.In addition to the phone call to sue and ask for leave indiscriminately, Chiriko ate the weird food made by Osamu Dazai, and stayed on vacation until she was sure that she was okay... One of the side effects of Super Stewed Chicken is about to emerge.

"Amnesia"

Although Ranpo took a free leave, he didn't show any worry, and Chiriko didn't care too much. The effect should be short-term.

Prescribe the right medicine.For forgetting, it is natural to borrow some kind of medium to assist memory, and daily use of notebooks, reminders, or handbooks and other materials.It's just that Ranpo and Chiriko's choices are a little bit ingenious, it's human.

I won't talk about random steps.Poe is a social horror who mainly works as a reasoning writer and game designer.Houtaro is a part-time worker, and his schoolwork must be heavier than that of him who is now a primary school student.Toru Amuro has other identities and jobs.Only he lives in the office, is protected and controlled by others, has the good qualities of being upright and honest, smart and handsome, not good at lying, and poor acting skills, which are more convincing physical evidence than the contract in black and white.

Wait a minute, Akutagawa packed a large pot of the Super Clear Chicken that Osamu Dazai carefully crafted.

Conan let go, and the tea leaves fell to the table in pieces.

He grabbed them in a daze, and held them piece by piece in his palm.

...Under Akutagawa's "eager" attention, Kidd drank a bowl with no expression on his face.

Conan threw the packed tea leaves into the glass, and lifted the boiling water on the side of the cooking table.

Boiling water was sizzlingly poured down, and the heat was so hot that his spare glasses fogged up, and his vision instantly became foggy.

Conan took off his glasses and wiped them, and he reluctantly responded.

"If Ranpo cares so much about you, then... use that, "Forget Detective's Memo"? " Chiriko suggested.

Forget the detective, the memory can only be kept for one day at most, and the detective who will forget everything before sleeping, including but not limited to the commissioned content and the progress of the detection.The way for a detective to keep himself from forgetting important things is to use atoms to note all the keywords in his palms, arms, and wherever he can see on his body.

Chi Lizi glanced at Conan's expression, doubts hung on her small face.

But there is no need to explain to Ranpo what "The Memorandum of the Forgotten Detective" is, because it comes from the "fantasy" work that Ranpo hates so much.

In fact, it is a suspense drama adapted from a popular light novel, with a cute main character, relaxed plot and appropriate rhythm.She is good at speed reading. Reading is not a good way to pass the time, but it is just right to catch up with dramas that cannot be accelerated.The only shortcoming is that after taking a quick glance at the random step, he thoroughly revealed the real criminals, criminal methods and main plot summary of this episode, and babbled to her one by one to list the extremely unscientific loopholes and mistakes in the play. .One episode lasts for 45 minutes, the left channel is the original soundtrack of the play, and the right channel is the loud random steps. When the ending song is over, I still can’t get enough of it. While drinking marble soda to replenish water, I muttered, "I really don’t understand, Chiriko, you see this is irrational, why don't we watch anime together."

Animations with non-daily themes and four-frame comics in newspapers are the only works that Ranpo does not comment on.

Even, sometimes looking through newspapers and periodicals, Ranbu's disappointment at not seeing four-panel comics is greater than not having any good-looking events in the newspapers.

Therefore, near the sofa in the reception room, a high mountain of comics gradually piled up.

Of course, reasoning about the subject matter is absolutely prohibited.

No matter how realistic it is, Luanbu can pick out a lot of flaws, and find the real culprit after turning a few pages.

"Ah, then I'll write it, I'll write it for you—huh,"

The sight that was thrown straight at her by random steps, her eyes were filled with her appearance, vivid affection and fierce enthusiasm, shining brightly.

"Let's find the tiger first."

"I see, where's the map!" Luanbu nodded.

"Eh...?" Chiriko was stunned for a moment, she hadn't received any information yet, "Then, I'm going to ask Kunikida-kun to—"

"It's enough. Didn't I have relevant information yesterday? I saw it when you trimmed my hair. The one that Coulom tidied up is enough. No matter who the other party is, where he is from, or where he is going--I You know more about yourself than the other party." Luanbu grinned with a confident smile, "So, as long as I appear on the stage, no one else will have any chance to shine!"

"But, Ranpo-san, you didn't use "super reasoning"... did you? "Conan froze as he slowly came over with oolong tea.

"Huh—?" Luanbu dragged out the syllable dissatisfied.

"Because, this is a logical reasoning that is so simple that it can be detected at a glance without super reasoning. The true face of tigers, there is no news of any creatures escaping from the zoo recently. It is very simple to determine the number of creatures in the park. It's even more impossible. It's not a real tiger, but a person with supernatural powers, like a "wolf" person who turns into a wolf on a full moon night, a "tiger" person?Or, "But it wasn't a full moon a few days ago, and Zhi Lizi didn't have time to say the second, third, and fourth hypotheses that were more reliable than the first one, and he heard Ranbu's happy affirmation.

"Ahahahaha—add ten points! Zhilizi, do you want to challenge the next question, where do tigers come from?"

Zhi Lizi blinked, the information she knew was the same as what Ranbu saw, only two short lines of words and pictures, how to deduce the origin of the supernatural being.

But, ah!

Zhilizi suddenly noticed, and the hint hidden in the words of Ranpo, "...the tiger man doesn't know that he is a supernatural power! In other words, he doesn't know that the tiger that causes damage to the land and buildings is his supernatural power, so it is one side. Being chased by a tiger, he ran away. He wanted to escape to a place where he could call for help. The destination was a slightly more prosperous city nearby, in order to call for help.”

"Add ten points. Although the purpose is not comprehensive, I still have a long way to go with famous detectives, but I am much better than ordinary detectives!"

"It can't be compared with a detective. I didn't deduce it from the mail itself. You said that you know more about himself than the Khajiit. You know, but he doesn't know it. I guess that should be This is the matter. He doesn't know that he is a supernatural power, and he knows nothing about supernatural powers."

"Of course it's not just this. Chiriko, you listened to me very carefully, add [-] points, haha!"

"I've been listening carefully. The tiger man's purpose is not to ask for help..."

With the reminder of Luanbu, the tiger's true face and where he was going were unraveled very smoothly.

The famous philosophical question remains: where did tigers come from.

Zhilizi was silent, thinking.

"I'm at a loss, just look at that photo." Luanbu reminded, got up neatly, jumped off the sofa, turned around and instructed her index finger to change from a raised index finger and middle finger to a V, and smiled expectantly.

"Photos..." The photos in the email are the ruined fields and warehouses near the orphanage. Chiriko guessed softly, "It's eating, right? Eating is the instinct of all creatures to maintain their physical strength and physical signs, regardless of tiger people Does it exist in the form of a tiger or a human?"

"right!"

"As for where it comes from, there are natural supernatural beings, and there are also supernatural beings who suddenly possess special abilities due to some kind of mutation the day after tomorrow. The tiger man is most likely the latter, at least he himself only recently discovered the existence of tigers. Tigers There was a lot of trouble for several days, and the forms of humans and tigers appeared alternately. When it came to the situation that required the intervention of an armed detective agency, the "tiger" relied on instinct to eat - the emails and rumors did not mention that there were strange people along the road near the remote place. Infested, that "person" must have basic life skills and common sense, and clothing that can cover the body.There is no report that someone suddenly disappeared, the tiger did not hurt anyone, but the tiger itself is a person who is exhausted to escape, so it is a lost existence that is not cared about... It may come from the orphanage that is not well run. Children who live there and acquire common sense. "

As for the current situation of the orphanage struggling to support, it can be seen from the barrenness of the fields in the photos.

Zhi Lizi frowned, "And the people in the orphanage may know...? Ah, I can't push it any further, it's all just speculation. Whether the people in the orphanage know or not, as long as the investigators come to the door, they will understand. There is a big mistake here. Hurry up?"

"Add thirty points—" Luanbu took out a ballpoint pen from the pen holder on the desk, and reported with a smile.

Add ten points, add ten points, add fifty points, add thirty points, it is the full point of the hundred point system.

Zhilizi and Ranbu looked at each other, couldn't help but smile contentedly, and couldn't help nodding slightly.

"That is to ask the Police Department to set off to the orphanage immediately, and at the same time estimate the range according to the pace, and try to search for suspicious people along the road after dawn. The signs are hunger, stained clothes, and have not slept well in the past few days. A young man who is tired and panicked." Conan exhaled and quickly concluded.

"No! When will we find the tiger? Of course, it's faster to find the tiger directly! People have to identify the signs, and there's only one tiger."

Turning around in a flurry of steps, he randomly circled a place on the posted map.

Immediately, Pata, Pata, and Pata rushed forward in three steps at the same time, and the position near Zhilizi suddenly fell into a deep depression, and the vigorous vitality and the heat of ironing enveloped people , "I want to write it in the most conspicuous place, so that Chiriko, you have absolutely no reason to say that you can't see it—"

The ball of the ballpoint pen rolled gently on the skin of the right hand, which felt a little cold.

He bowed his head in random steps, and wrote seriously, his faint feeling was instantly assimilated by his slightly hot breath.

Zhilizi adjusted her sitting posture so that Ranbu could write as effortlessly as possible.

She waited, chaotically yearning for his request.

"This time, you"

Zhilizi slowly suppressed her smile, her heartbeat seemed to stop for half a beat.

Luanbu raised his head and looked at her with a smile on his face.

"This time, you will definitely not sit idly by me, will you?"
