It's hard for me as a coser

Chiaki Hinkage and Edogawa Ranpo reconciled.

To be precise, the two sides did not break up at all.If Edogawa Ranpo is really angry, it's not something that can be solved by a few boxes of snacks.

The so-called personal protection has naturally been maintained.

It's like when Chuya restrained his momentum, the feeling was completely different from when he was working. At this moment, when Chiaki Hikage stayed quietly in the detective agency, he basically didn't attract the attention of others.

But in the end it is a person with supernatural powers, no one will underestimate Chiaki Hikage - just like Kenji Miyazawa in the detective agency, with a slender appearance, he looks like an ordinary 14-year-old boy, but in fact he has an extremely powerful personality Aggression is the same as ability.The strength of a person with supernatural abilities cannot be determined by appearance.

It is impossible for Poe to be kept by the detective agency for no reason.In fact, from the very beginning, Poe was not a so-called prisoner at all.Simply "being a guest" is enough, no one in the detective agency can move him - the reason is very simple, because the combination is different from ordinary organizations, if it must be described, it is actually a secret association.

On the surface, most of the members have other occupations, but in fact, their identities can affect political diplomacy. Each member is not bound by the law while in Japan. Although the detective agency is not an official government department, it is It is still necessary to act in accordance with the rules of the country that should be governed.

As long as Edgar Allan Poe has the idea of ​​leaving, unless he directly breaks his face with the combination, the detective society will always remain in a state of restraint.

As for why the other party still chose to stay in the detective agency...

"Hey, Karl—" Ellen Poe looked at his pet who once again regarded Qianqiu Riying as a cat (raccoon) climbing frame, and affectionately called the other party's name.

Seeing that the little raccoon ignored him at all, Ellen Poe set his sights on Edogawa Ranpo, who was sitting on the side of the table with his legs crossed on the table, who was about to doze off boredly, and whispered aggrievedly: "Ranpo Step...can you ask the members of your detective agency to return Carl to us..."

Edogawa Ranpo squinted his eyes as if he was asleep, and didn't respond at all.

"I didn't realize before that the little dwarf is so attractive to animals?" Osamu Dazai seemed a little shocked by this scene.

With the bear quality automatically staying, it is really difficult for Poe to leave.

Atsushi Nakajima came back in the evening with a silent spring mirror flower behind him.When seeing Chiaki Hikage sitting on the sofa of the detective agency, both Atsushi Nakajima and Kyoka Izumi showed a little surprised expression.

It's just that the expression on the little tiger's face was a little more surprised, "Mr. Zhongyuan! Why are you here!"

And when he got a little closer, Atsushi Nakajima noticed the changed image of the other party very keenly, and said a little blankly: "Well, Mr. Nakahara looks much younger."

"Is it because of changing clothes?"

Qianqiu Riying paused while teasing the little raccoon's hand, then glanced up at Atsushi Nakajima.Atsushi Nakajima, who has always been good at observing other people's expressions, immediately said cautiously: "Um, did I say something wrong?"

"No, no. But even you said the same thing." Qianqiu Riying put his chin against the furry head of the little raccoon, and said as if talking to himself, "I thought it was my illusion..."

"...Compared to this, is that gentleman a guest?" Atsushi Nakajima looked helplessly at Ellen Poe, who had been exuding a dark aura at the other end, "I always feel that he seems to be staring at Look at Mr. Zhongyuan."

"Because I robbed his pet." Qianqiu Riying gestured to the raccoon, and answered quite naturally.

"Ah, uh...is that so?" Nakajima Atsushi laughed, not knowing how to reply.

There are too many flaws in this sentence.

Qianqiu Riying didn't pay attention to so much, and asked casually: "How do you feel in the detective agency?"

Almost subconsciously, Atsushi Nakajima replied: "Everyone is a very gentle person and takes good care of me!"

"It seems that he has adapted quite quickly." Qianqiu Riying lowered his head, and set his eyes on the raccoon who seemed to be interested in his hat, and his tone seemed to become gentler, "Sure enough, the detective agency is more suitable. You."

"Eh? What did you just say?" Atsushi Nakajima looked over with some doubts.

"It's nothing." Qianqiu Riying looked at another girl who hadn't responded or spoken, "What about you, Jinghua?"

The girl in the kimono didn't speak, but looked at Qianqiu Hikage with eyes that were still dull but brighter than before.

For such a reaction, the red-haired boy raised the corners of his mouth, put the raccoon on the ground, walked over and patted the heads of the two children like a cat, and then greeted Edogawa Ranbu, "It's almost time Alright, I'll leave for a while."

Luanbu Maomao, who had been sleepy all the time, yawned, "I want to eat the yokan from Shanquan's house—and bring me a bottle of apple-flavored bozi soda!"

"You've eaten enough today." That's what he said, but Qianqiu Riying still asked, "Half an hour?"

Edogawa Ranpo gestured with numbers, "Ten minutes is enough."

"...Is it so weak?" Qianqiu Riying complained while holding his forehead.

"They ain't Mr. Hat after all—"

After thinking for a while, Qianqiu Rykage turned around and called Izumi Jinghua very considerately, leaving Atsushi Nakajima, who was confused about the riddle at the moment, to stay where he was.

Just 5 minutes after Qianqiu Riying left the detective agency with Izumi Jinghua, the black lizard of the port mafia suddenly appeared at the location of the detective agency and launched an attack on it.

Then at a very fast speed, the detective agency counterattacked.

The dialogue between Chiaki Hikage and Edogawa Ranpo is not actually a riddle, but just swallowed a few key words that are not suitable for speaking in public.

No matter what, Qianqiu Riying now has the label of Hong Kong gangsters on his head, and it is impossible for him to deal with Hong Kong gangsters for the detective agency.It would be good not to deal with the detective agency in reverse.

And because of the human relationship, Qianqiu Hinkage had to protect the safety of Edogawa Ranpo within a month—but, it was only limited to Edogawa Ranpo.

If Luanbu confronts Hong Kong gangsters, Qianqiu Riying can stop at any time, and there will never be any entanglements with Hong Kong gangsters' interests.

Coupled with the previous verbal agreement with Mori Ogai, Chiaki Hinkage only needs to be a bystander.Do not get involved in the fight between the two organizations.

After Qianqiu Nikkage sent information related to the combination to Chuya Nakahara through a message, as a cadre of Hong Kong gangsters, Chuya Nakahara would definitely hand over the information to Mori Ogai as soon as possible.Mori Ogai will naturally know that in the detective agency, there is not only a human tiger with a reward worth 70 billion, but also a very valuable group member who is also worth (in the political sense).

Regardless of whether it is to test the detective agency or the combination, the gangsters will inevitably come to attack the detective agency before Poe leaves.

According to the order given by the gangsters, gather the team and go to the detective agency, you can get the answer with a little calculation, and then naturally avoid the gangsters according to the time.

It can even prove from the side that Qianqiu Riying understands the operation arrangements of Hong Kong gangsters, which adds another layer of protection to his identity as the leader.Although in fact, Qianqiu Riying still relies on the colorless ability to cheat.

Not surprisingly, within 5 minutes, Osamu Dazai will find an excuse to leave the detective agency temporarily.After all, his identity is also embarrassing.

Qianqiu Riying took out two bottles of still steaming wave soda from under the vending machine, and passed a bottle to Quan Jinghua.

Quan Jinghua showed a puzzled expression, but after hesitating, she obediently took the soda.

"I don't know what you like, but this is quite interesting." Qianqiu Riying said so, and then shut up.

Although Anna is also a mouthless lolita, it is still easier to communicate with Anna.Xiao Jinghua should be handed over to Dun Dun!

In the next few days, Qianqiu Riying just ignored the friction between the detective agency and Hong Kong gangsters, and the players on both sides naturally completely ignored his existence.It's like forgetting that there is such a person.

Mori Ogai abided by the so-called spectator's agreement at the beginning.

Everything returned to the original plot, Qianqiu Riying used the colorless ability to the extreme, and perfectly fulfilled his position as a "bodyguard".

It just so happened that Hong Kong gangsters suppressed the existence of Chiaki Hikage from the very beginning. Before Nakahara Nakaya appeared on the stage, even the members of the detective agency would not know Chiaki Hikage's identity.

In just a few days, just like in the original book, being provoked by the group, the friction between Hong Kong gangsters and the detective agency is getting bigger and bigger.Edogawa Ranpo was lying on the desk of the detective agency, pushing the marbles collected in the wave soda.

Seeing this scene, Qianqiu Riying almost hallucinated that he had returned to the bar Wuluo, and saw Anna sitting on the wooden floor, rolling red marbles on it.

To tell the truth, he really wanted to go home.

It's just that Qianqiu Riying had just flashed this idea, and the Ranbu Maomao lying on the table said, "Mr. Hat has been patient for a long time."

"Huh?" Qianqiu Riying was taken aback.

"Lovecraft—that's his name, right?" Edogawa Ranpo watched the marbles roll toward the table with his initial strength, "Dazai told me. "

"Just now, the two members of the group were temporarily stopped by the police. If Mr. Hat rushed over now, he would probably be able to catch up with them." Edogawa Ranpo said in a calm tone that was completely different from usual, "Is Mr. Hat going?"

Lovecraft——This name is too difficult to pronounce. Maybe Wenye lovers will not immediately react when they hear this name, but as long as his supernatural power is mentioned, it is impossible for anyone to forget it.

He is the writer who wrote the Cthulhu myth!Mr. Ke!

The most important thing is that the opportunity for Qianqiu Riying to go home is at this moment—his eyes light up slightly, "Of course!"

The unclosed windows were wide open, the wind blew the curtains, and the warm sunlight came in and sprinkled on the two people sitting in the office.

Edogawa Ranpo stared silently at the blue marbles reflecting the sunlight rolling on the table, but when it should have stopped.A gust of wind blew by, and it finally fell to the ground on the edge of the corner of the table with a clatter.

The marbles were shattered.
