My vest is beautiful

The existence of "books" is very special to the world of if—no, to all worlds related to books.

His complexity cannot be summed up in one or two sentences. In the world of if, if more than two people know the "book", it does not mean that the world will be destroyed immediately, but it will increase the probability of the world's collapse and become More unstable and more prone to accidents.

As for knowing to what extent the "book" will be included in the calculation of this amount, Shi Wu doesn't know.

He only stayed in the world of if for 24 hours, most of which was wasted sleeping.At that time, he never thought that he would appear in the main world closely related to the if line.

There had never been such a situation in any previous world (or there was, he just didn't notice it at the time).

What I didn't see at the time was Mori Ogai who knew nothing (at least on the surface), and Nakajima Atsushi who knew little but concealed the real situation.

Only relying on these two people, Shi Wuneng guessed that the current level is already very good.

But also because of the lack of information, Shi Wu thinks in a more extreme direction, and because of this lack, the logic and rationality of his thinking have increased a lot.

Just because it was too reasonable, coupled with the self-confidence and arrogance of the vest itself, Shi Wu stopped thinking about it - the deeper he went, the more he would be convinced of his thoughts.

Because the performance of Atsushi Nakajima and the white god of death at that time proved this point from all aspects.

And...the atmosphere felt by Shi Wu in the two worlds is also different.

The previous world, the world of IF, belonged to the world of the leader Dazai—it was sad and depressing.Atsushi Nakajima released his emotions, and Mori Ogai looked at him with the same emotion, but the mature adult kept it in his heart and didn't show it much.

Regrets are often easier to remember than good things.

In this world, from the very beginning, most of what Shi Wu perceives is happy, beautiful, and happy.

Although I know that this comparison of mine is also unfair—whether it’s the difference in world background, the different vests, the different standpoints—but accepting the different treatment of the two vests at the same time, Shi Wu still feels a little... ... be sad.

He can't complain about another world, because this comparison is unfair.Every world has its own rules.

Just like people in wartime, after experiencing those bloody histories, after decades, the world is peaceful, and what you see is no longer gunpowder smoke, but people’s smiling faces—the kind of emotion that overflows from the bottom of my heart .

They will compare their past life with the lives of their children now, and they may be envious, but they will not feel malicious.They may wonder what it would be like if they were born in such a peaceful time, but it is those sad and disgusting wars that made them who they are now.

If that leader Dazai had the chance to see the world, what would he hold... eh?etc?To see the world...?

Shi Wu's brain turned again.

The White Reaper said that the clothes on his body are very similar to a staff member of the detective agency. Obviously, this staff member (that is, Oda Sakunosuke) is unfamiliar to the White Reaper.

Alice and Mr. Mori knew the employee, but the source of the information was unknown.Due to the openness of the detective agency in this world, it is not surprising that Mr. Mori, as the head of the orphanage, knows the people of the detective agency.Especially since Mr. Mori is also a former mafia leader, it is more normal to know this.

The White Grim Reaper was the one who stayed by Dazai Osamu's side.And the clothes on Dazai Osamu's body in this world (main world) are the same as what he was wearing at that time.The leader, Dazai, is clearly not wearing anything similar.

And the Oda Sakunosuke in the main world died, and the Oda Sakunosuke in the if world is still alive.

Dazai Osamu's character is not at all inexplicable to be a meaningless leader. This point is best proved by Shiwu who has been in the vest.

Being a leader and being a social animal is better than committing suicide!With the mentality of the waistcoat at the time, Shi Wu felt that there was no problem with this idea.

In addition to the special person mentioned by the white god of death, the regret of the leader Dazai is that he has never read the novel written by that person.

Once the logic is tied together...

"...That's it." Shi Wu understood the answer, but this answer made him feel even more sad.

Shi Wu knew from the beginning that the leader Dazai was protecting that world for his friends.Only now did he realize that the leader Dazai is so special.

Osamu Dazai, who became the leader, has the ability to observe parallel worlds.He knew that his friend would die, so he chose to do this.

But it's a pity that I haven't seen that book... That is to say, in the world of if, the leader Dazai and his friends don't know each other.

Edogawa Ranpo stood aside and stretched out his hand to grab Toshina with some helplessness.

After he turned his head and saw Shi Wu's expression, he knew that he had said something wrong.Shi Wu was unable to get the information from the information, and Edogawa Ranpo had seen the memory read by Ishikawa Woodpecker.

Even if that memory is only a short paragraph, the information in it is enough for Edogawa Ranpo to understand that in that world, there is such a special existence that cannot be known by more than two people.

He was not sure what it was before, but now he is sure, it is a "book".

And "book" is obviously a key word, which reminds the other self of something bad.

How to describe what he saw?Edogawa Ranpo tightly grasped Tokino's hand.

It was clearly in front of his eyes, but that expression made Edogawa Ranpo feel that he was far away from the other party.The sense of alienation that isolates the world, his simple word made the other party realize the distance between them and their differences.

Edogawa Ranpo can easily say the word "book", and the whole world will compete for "book".But for another world, the "book" is the sword of Damocles capable of destroying and collapsing the world.

Not allowed to be known by more people, guarded by him (Shi Wu) and them, paid an unimaginable price.

From the memory video, we can know that Nakajima Atsushi (White Death) is one of them, and the other, will it be "ranpo"?No, it's not—even "Ranbu" is guarding the two people who know the secret.

[For everyone, I have to protect both of you!

I must……

Find a way to stop him...

Before I... die...]

How could he ignore the words he saw in the red photo?

Edogawa Ranpo understands himself, but he is a little hard to understand, how could he burst out with such a sense of protection - he knows himself too well, understands his indifference to the world, and has childish cruelty, just like He initially refused to save Dun the same.

He is like a kite hanging in the sky, being led by the president, he has not lost the connection with the ground.

For "Edogawa Ranpo", the world has never mattered.It is only the particular individual among them that matters.

In that world, is there someone so important to you?

Why not run away?Obviously it has nothing to do with you, right?

Who did you meet?

Talking about the incomprehensible Edogawa Ranpo, he didn't know that he would be threatened with death for the detective agency in the future.Because he trusted the president, he lost the simplest judgment - obviously reasoning is what he is best at.

Just because of the president's words, I didn't think about the possibility that the enemy would be that person at all.

Now Edogawa is in a panic, feeling flustered, like a child who has done something wrong but doesn't know how to make it up.

Edogawa Ranpo likes another self very much-this is a surprising thing, but it doesn't seem to be surprising.

Ranpo Edogawa is self-willed and self-willed, and if he is like this kind of person, he will often hate people who are similar to himself.The simplest example is that the snacks that were originally given to oneself will be divided into two due to the existence of the other party.

But he is different.Edogawa Ranpo has been a special child since he was born. He cannot understand the world of ordinary people, and others cannot understand the world in Edogawa Ranpo's eyes.So it's always tiring to communicate.

So when there is another person who can completely fit with me and understand me, it is different from usual, and I don’t need to speak completely, even if the logic jumps quickly, I can understand myself.

If it weren't for the other party's eyes being invisible, the tacit understanding between them would definitely be able to understand with just one look - even if they couldn't see, their current situation is almost the same.

The same snacks you like, and the same things you hate, you can share or complain together.

The relationship between the two, in the eyes of others, is that Edogawa Ranpo is taking care of another self, but in fact, Edogawa Ranpo does not think that he is taking care of himself.They are equal, and he also received due rewards and affection from his other self.

During this period of time, apart from getting along with parents, and the president, Ranpo felt the happiest and relaxed life.

Therefore, Edogawa Ranpo didn't want his other self to be unhappy at all.

Especially because of self-induced.

"...What did you remember?" Edogawa Ranpo even opened his eyes.

Shi Wu was not surprised to be spotted by Edogawa Ranpo.But what he "remembered" did not belong to "Edogawa Ranpo", but another vest.

It was only after a while that he finally figured out what happened to the leader Dazai.Just because he had logged into this vest before, he felt a little... a little sad at this moment.

It's like watching a sad movie and the hangover is still there.Shi Wu thought so, and didn't want to worry Ranbu, so he replied: "It's not a big deal."

Before Edogawa Ranbu could reply, Shi Wu took the initiative to say, "I want to go for a walk."

Before Mr. Detective said "I'm with you", Shi Wu added: "Alone."

Edogawa Ranpo obviously didn't want to agree, showing dissatisfaction.

"Don't worry, I know the way." Shi Wu smiled, "And I have a mobile phone, so I can contact you anytime."

He didn't really want his slightly bad mood to affect Edogawa Ranpo.

Looking at the calm smile, Edogawa Ranpo couldn't refuse at all, especially when he discovered Shiwu's thoughts and he had a certain guilty conscience.In the end, Mr. Detective just muttered something in a low voice, and then said: "...Come back early."

Shi Wu responded with a smile.

Because he didn't see the group directly, and he didn't go out, Edogawa Ranpo didn't realize that the group's offensive against the detective agency was as early as when they were rejected by Fukuzawa Yukichi for the "acquisition of a business license for supernatural powers" just started.

There is no mention of time in the file, and Shi Wu, who just really wanted to go out for a walk, also didn't notice this.

When going out, Shiwu also greeted Nakajima Atsushi, Dazai Osamu and others with a normal attitude.

Because Shi Wu occasionally went to the rooftop to blow air alone, no one noticed anything wrong.Except for Osamu Dazai.

It's just that Osamu Dazai didn't have any special thoughts about it. He just glanced at Ranpo Edogawa's office, thinking that they could solve it internally, shrugged his shoulders and lay down on the sofa to continue fishing.

Shi Wu didn't remember the way, but if he had to know the way, he could do it.With the idea of ​​walking around casually and blowing the sea breeze, Shi Mou suppressed the hat that Edogawa Ranpo forcibly put on on his head—by the way, because of Edogawa Ranpo's personal interest, the two of them Even the clothes they wear are the same.

As a result, other members made a lot of jokes in order to distinguish the two "Mr. Ranpo".

The cool wind blowing on the face is very comfortable, especially today when there is still the sun, the warm sunlight falls on the body, blowing away most of Shi Wu's slightly negative emotions.

The vest of "Edogawa Ranpo" is not a setting that is particularly immersed in negative emotions.

After leaving the door, Shi Wucai felt that his reaction at that time was a bit too exaggerated - in terms of a chaotic person.

Go back and apologize, shall we?Edogawa Ranpo thought so, and suddenly heard the sweet laughter of a child not far away.

The child came here, and he said in a coquettish tone unique to children:

"Come and play with me! Big Brother~"

The author has something to say: Shi Wu: I am guessing, the reasoning is full of countless subjective ideas, and then they are led astray by me.I didn't mean to (be nice)
