The communication between Shi Wu and Atsushi Nakajima sounded quite aimless, and they said a lot of things without knowing it.

For Atsushi Nakajima, the ordinary daily life is enough to expose information that even he himself can't think of.

The conversation at the beginning was still timeless, and before I knew it, it was Atsushi Nakajima who couldn't stop talking at the end.Shi Wu just propped his chin and listened quietly.

Although they rarely agree, the atmosphere between them is very good, at least Atsushi Nakajima can tell that "Mr. Ranpo" in front of him has been listening to him very carefully.

Even if you don't really care about it after listening to it, and you will forget it after a while, at least the two of you are relaxed and happy enough in the process.

Shi Wu didn't like the bloody part of the battle described by Atsushi Nakajima, and he preferred those trivial, easy-to-forget daily details that are full of comfort.

Shi Wu likes that kind of peace.It's the same feeling as he likes to watch clouds.

However, it was completely different from the one in the infirmary—outside, in everyone's conference room, the atmosphere was extremely silent and stiff.

"Mr. Ranpo, you already knew?" Yosano Akiko said, it was supposed to be a question, but it sounded like a statement.

"Actually, it's quite obvious, and the president has also discovered it." Edogawa Ranpo said.

Yosano Akiko didn't notice the reflection from that angle at that time, but Fukuzawa Yukichi was enough to distinguish the unusual moment.

"Is that so..." Yosano Akiko lowered her eyes, and said what she had discovered as if she was giving a report.

"The material of the pair of prosthetic eyes is something I have never seen before. At least as far as I know, it has never appeared before."

Yosano Akiko is a doctor, and a very good doctor.It's just because of the supernatural power that people ignore her own medical ability.

"Isn't it glass?"

"No, it's a more special material." Yosano Akiko pursed her lips: "It's a very good and rare material."

For patients who use glass prosthetic eyes, the most troublesome thing is the fragility of glass prosthetic eyes and the cost of later maintenance.That was never a small sum.

However, the pair of prosthetic eyes of "Mr. Ranpo" are definitely produced by the world's top technology.Yosano Akiko can tell.

Regardless of the size, weight, and simulation, they are all so good that they look like real eyes.And it completely fits the eye socket of that person, and it will never cause the slightest injury to him.

"That's it." Edogawa responded in a hurry.

The atmosphere was too strange. While two people were talking, the other few people didn't speak.

After Edogawa Ranpo's simple agreement, the room fell into a brief silence. Finally, Kunikida Doppo couldn't bear the feeling that the plan was beyond expectations, and couldn't help asking: "Mr. Ranpo, the client, What the hell is he...?"

In fact, at the moment the question was asked, everyone in the room already had the answer.

Compared with brain thinking, the intuition that surged up in an instant-has already placed the answer in front of them.

The existence of Shi Wu is too special, he is like clear and transparent water, unfathomable clouds, and the feeling of himself is the same as the name, almost nothing.

This kind of personality - it's very suitable for wearing a vest and pretending to be someone else's identity along the vest.

Even that is not a disguise, it is the nature of the vest itself.

So this is the reason why the system can successfully complete almost every plan, and no one can tell the difference between Shi Wu's vest and the vest himself.

What's more, those vests are the identities of the dead, and the memories they left behind have been filtered and beautified in the hearts of relatives and friends-the living are no match for the dead, and this has always been a truth.

"Didn't you already have the answer?" The world's number one detective said calmly, easily and directly peeling off this thin layer of gauze.

And even though they already knew the answer, the rest of the detective agency couldn't help but gasp—for this stone that fell to the ground and represented the truth.

Edogawa Ranpo is still unable to determine Tokira's identity, because that guy's body is too "clean".

It is different from the kind of cleanness that uses supernatural powers to deliberately erase clues - even if the clues are deliberately erased, Edogawa Ranpo can still get the truth through reverse reasoning.

But the cleanliness of Shi Wu's body is a real blank.

Without any clues, even if you investigate the material of the prosthetic eye, you will never get an answer.Edogawa Ranpo knew this clearly.

And what led to this situation, as I said before, there are only two possibilities.One is the supernatural ability without science—similar to the humanoid supernatural ability of the mafia boss in the port next door.

There is also a completely unexplainable different world.

The only certainty is the fact that that person is indeed "Edogawa Ranpo".That's why Edogawa Ranpo will affirm this in front of everyone.

No matter what kind of conspiracy the person behind it has, the identity of "Edogawa Ranpo" cannot be denied, and Edogawa Ranpo does not want everyone to feel hostile and defensive towards that guy.

After all, no matter what happens, the person himself is innocent.

The detective agency is so unreasonable—as long as the identity of "Mr. Ranpo" is confirmed, everyone will take it for granted to give trust and care.

The sentence of lending him his eyes is not a lie that can be discarded after saying it. Edogawa Ranpo will take good care of another "Ranpo" in the next time.

and so.

Just being sure of that is enough.

Edogawa Ranpo smiled and clasped his hands together: "In short, you just use your usual attitude and treat him as an ordinary client."

"As long as the memory is restored, you will know what to do in the future."

Yosano Akiko opened his mouth, looking like he still wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a while, he didn't say a single word he wanted to say.

Knowing that she has nothing to do next, she was the first to stand up and said with a smile, "I see, then I'll go see how Dun and the other Mr. Ranpo are doing."

She was the first to call out the name publicly.

Kunikida Doppo closed his notebook, nodded earnestly and seriously, and quietly left the position.

The Tanizaki brothers and sisters who rushed back at the beginning of this simple memory looked at each other, and Tanizaki Junichiro greeted Miyazawa Kenji: "Then we will go first."

"My brother and I know what to do." Naomi Tanizaki smiled slightly.

Miyazawa Kenji probably didn't understand what happened the whole time, so he smiled meekly: "Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's not an enemy."

Only Fukuzawa Yukichi, Edogawa Ranpo, and Dazai Osamu were left in the room.

The detective agency is a warm enough organization, and the members trust each other - but this does not mean that all the information between them is exchanged.

Just like they still don't know how the detective agency was established, nor do they know the past between Dazai Osamu and Yosano Akiko.

Sometimes, concealment is also a kind of protection.

The matter may be related to a certain black organization, so Edogawa Ranpo did not intend to speak out in front of Yosano Akiko.

When there were only three of them left at the scene, there were only two people who knew the identity of Dazai Osamu. Edogawa Ranpo glanced at Dazai Osamu.

Osamu Dazai laughed: "I still need to confirm."

Expensive, and rare materials that do not know where they came from, are only used to make the luxury of prosthetic eyes-it seems to be marking something.

That must be a powerful organization with sufficient wealth.As it happens, there is such an organization in Yokohama.

"Actually, I still care a little bit." After getting such an answer, Edogawa Ranpo was not surprised. He looked seriously at the swordsman who had lived with him for 13 years.

"President, do you know any fighters who are as powerful and powerful as you?"

No need to answer, Edogawa Ranpo also knows the answer. The 13 years of getting along has never been Fukuzawa Yukichi's unilateral understanding of him. He has also seen through everything about Fukuzawa Yukichi, including the past.

There is only one warrior who has a similar temperament to Fukuzawa Yukichi, and is equally powerful.

"You mean Genichiro?" Fukuzawa Yukichi obviously sensed the meaning from Edogawa Ranpo's words - Fukuji Sakurachi, formerly known as Genichiro.When he was young, he studied martial arts with Fukuzawa Yukichi, who was the same age at the time, and at the same time joined the government to become a government killer.

Fukuzawa Yukichi shook his head: "Genichiro is my childhood friend, and also the man I trust the most in this world."

So, it won't be him.Fukuzawa Yukichi said so affirmatively.

Edogawa Ranpo's all benchmarks are to follow the president in everything, and he will not doubt people who the president trusts at all.

"I didn't say that I doubted that uncle." Edogawa shrugged in disorder, with a relaxed expression.

Fukuzawa Yukichi's attitude was also very flat, and he didn't say anything.

Watching this scene, Osamu Dazai suddenly found it very interesting, and the corners of his mouth subconsciously twitched a little.

—Obviously, doubts have arisen, Mr. Ranpo.He said in his heart.

If he really had no doubts, Edogawa Ranpo would never have mentioned that man in front of him at this time.

Dazai Osamu and Edogawa Ranpo looked at each other briefly with their cool green eyes, and said with a chuckle, "Speaking of which, I am a little concerned about one thing."

"Oh, you want to talk about his memory loss, right?" Edogawa Ranpo threw a candy into his mouth: "The attitude is obvious, it shouldn't be the first time he has lost his memory."

When he said this, Edogawa Ranpo's tone was very calm.

"And he also clearly knows that this is not the first time he has lost his memory."

Shi Wu in the infirmary was shaking his legs. During the conversation with Atsushi Nakajima, he went astray unconsciously for a moment. He asked the system: 【Speaking of which, how did I die? 】

After a few seconds, he casually put the doubt aside.

[Forget it, it's not a very important thing anyway. 】
