My vest is beautiful

The child's voice was crisp and raw, and it was difficult to raise his guard from time to time.

A bad guy never writes the word "bad guy" on his face, but he is not an idiot, and he has absolutely no way of ignoring the malice overflowing from this child.

Shi Wu didn't quite know when he had provoked the enemy, but he was still not too vigilant because of the childishness shown by that child.

Although he showed malice, he was not murderous, and he could feel that this child was really serious about inviting him to play—well, how this "play" means to play is another story.

Because the weather is good, most of the negative emotions on him have dissipated, and Shi Wu's temperament at this moment is not difficult for people to get close to.But Shi Wu couldn't take the initiative to approach him on the premise that others were malicious to him, so he stopped.

Probably guessing that the other party's abilities are probably related to "playing", Shi Wu shook his head: "No, I'm going back."

"Hey——" The child dragged out the ending sound, looking a little regretful and aggrieved.

Shiwu couldn't see, so he couldn't clearly see the appearance and dress of the child in front of him.

This child, who was about ten years old, had a head of special black and white hair, and his eyes sparkled like falling stars.He was holding a doll with a terrifying appearance in his arms. Yumeno Hisaku, code-named "Q", shrugged his mouth unhappily, as if no one had ever rejected him.

In fact, even a slightly kind-hearted person would be unable to reject such a child.

"It's rare for Kusaku to come out to play once, big brother really want to reject me?" Yumeno Kusaku lowered his head, his voice was full of frustration and sadness.

Shi Wu heard that this was the truth, if it was Edogawa Ranpo himself, he probably wouldn't care what other people think, and turned his head and left on the spot.

But Shi Wu is in a pretty good mood now, so he didn't forcefully refuse, but replied: "But I'm going back."

——It sounds like this, but it’s not that it’s not tough.

After all, Shi Wu was still wearing the "Edogawa Ranpo" vest, which was originally hung by his self-willed self.

"What - big brother is a bad guy!" The child's logic couldn't be understood, Yumeno Hisakuku snorted heavily, then stomped his feet and turned his head, wanting to turn around and leave.

It was only because of the emotional fluctuations that the child didn't seem to notice that there were stones on the ground, and suddenly let out an exclamation and fell forward.

Almost instinctively, Shiwu grabbed the child who was about to fall—but the moment he touched Yumeno Hisaku, Shiwu immediately reacted!

Oops, fooled!

Yumeno Hisaku's arms were wrapped with blades, and in an instant, Shiwu smelled the smell of blood coming from the child in front of him.

On the back of Shi Wu's originally clean and clean neck, at this moment, there appeared a black handprint that seemed to have been severely grabbed by someone.

Yumeno Hisaku, who was held by Shiwu but was immediately thrown away, raised his mouth high, this time his voice was very soft, with a sweet tone and strong malice that he didn't know where he learned from.

"Big brother, let's play~"

[! @#￥%...&*! ! ! 】

In an instant, Shi Wu's consciousness was cut off.

Before the members of the detective agency had an accident, no one would have noticed that the group had already started to attack—if the person who was aware of the incident also pretended to be ignorant on the surface, he would naturally not be included in it.

According to the original supposed future, the armed detective society will only sense the danger and start to respond when a building suddenly disappears the next morning.

Even after today's whole day has passed, they will not be aware of the disappearance of Miyazawa Kenji (Miyazawa Kenji was arrested when sending the group away).

Because the detective agency is too free, everyone's personality is very distinct, and Kenji Miyazawa is a newcomer and at the same time has a rare offensive ability in the armed detective agency. If the ranking is purely based on attack power, it ranks first in the detective agency. front end.

Kenji Miyazawa liked to farm when he had no work assignments, so he disappeared for a period of time without prior notice, and no one would find the problem in a short time.

But this time it was different, there was always a character of disappearing without notice. In the first hour or two, Edogawa Ranpo was not in a hurry.But when it was almost time to get off work, Shiwu hadn't come back yet, Edogawa Ranpo finally realized something was wrong.

"That's strange? Why hasn't he come back yet?" At this time, Edogawa Ranpo didn't think of any accidents or anything. He just thought that the situation at that time and the other party's mood was too bad, so he was just a little worried.

But when Edogawa Ranpo went out, he heard Tanizaki Junichiro inadvertently mentioning "I haven't seen Kenji all afternoon."

The detective suddenly raised his head: "What did you say?!"

Edogawa Ranpo, who didn't regard the combination as much of a threat at all, finally panicked at this moment.Under the confused eyes of others, he put on the glasses that "represent the use of super-reasoning"—the information and clues that he would not deliberately pay attention to due to self-suggestion all appeared in front of his eyes.

"Kenji was taken away! It's a space-related ability." Edogawa Ranpo stood at the door of the elevator and said this to several members who hadn't left after get off work.

Fukuzawa Yukichi also came out at this time, frowning slightly.He never doubted Edogawa Ranpo's judgment, so at this moment, he just asked: "Where is Kenji now? Ranpo."

Because it was timeless, Edogawa Ranpo was not willful, and reported an address directly, and then almost ordered: "Dazai, Atsushi, you two come with me!"

Because he doesn't have a lot of force value, except for reasoning cases, Edogawa Ranpo stands behind most of the time, and this may be the first time he wants to do something on his own initiative.

"Others, including ordinary members, are waiting here for the time being!"

Ordinary people in the detective agency are more aware of the particularity of these supernatural beings than others, and the dangers these special guys will encounter.At such a time, it is of course not to refute Edogawa Ranpo who is clearly serious.

Just like the original test of Atsushi Nakajima, Junichiro Tanizaki played the enemy of the bomber. In fact, this kind of danger has not happened before in the detective agency.

Just like banks often encounter robbers, armed detective agencies often encounter this kind of guy who is not popular and hostile to the police.Because the detective agency helped the police, they were retaliated against or something.

Also, the attitude of the Armed Detective Agency was extremely cold when he was threatened by the port mafia last time. The only one who was scared was the newcomer Atsushi Nakajima.

Detective agencies are used to this kind of thing.

Only this time it was obviously different.Because they hadn't finished get off work yet, the ordinary members of the detective agency hadn't left yet, and they obediently followed Edogawa Ranpo's order to stay where they were, waiting for further instructions.

Edogawa Ranpo, on the other hand, led Atsushi Nakajima and Osamu Dazai out of the detective agency without hesitation.

As for choosing Atsushi Nakajima, it was because Ranpo Edogawa judged that the opponent was not an enemy with force, and he also saw that Osamu Dazai was training Atsushi Nakajima.

Edogawa Ranpo didn't think there would be any accidents with himself and Osamu Dazai around.

Compared with Dazai Osamu and Edogawa Ranpo who already understood what they were going to do, Nakajima Atsushi who was called together seemed a little at a loss.Although he knew the power of Mr. Ranpo, he had enough fledgling mentality towards Osamu Dazai who brought him back to the detective agency at that time, so at this moment he asked Osamu Dazai: "...Mr. Dazai, where are we going?" where?"

"Well, to save the sleeping Beauty?" Osamu Dazai replied with an uncertain and flirtatious tone.

Now it was almost the normal off-duty time for the workers, and the evening sun fell on them. Compared with Edogawa Ranpo, Dazai Osamu seemed a little more relaxed.

If it's just a combination, another "Mr. Ranpo" will never be in danger, after all, there is a little fan of Mr. Ranpo inside.

After all, even Osamu Dazai would never have thought that at this moment, Mori Ogai would actually release that terrifying psychic power user "Q".

But when they arrived at the scene, whether it was Ranpo Edogawa or Osamu Dazai, their faces changed.

Ranpo Edogawa picked up the hat that fell on the ground—it was a beret of the same style as Tokino's that he had been wearing on his head all the time.

"Dazai." Edogawa Ranpo called Dazai Osamu's name.

In the conversation that Atsushi Nakajima couldn't understand at all, Osamu Dazai's face was a little gloomy: "Yeah."

"Let's go back to the detective agency immediately!" Edogawa Ranpo clutched his hat tightly and turned around, ordering: "Atsushi, call Kunikida, everyone, absolutely don't go out now!"

Atsushi Nakajima took out his mobile phone in a panic, and it didn't take too long. However, after he dialed the number, he was a little at a loss and said to the two seniors of the detective agency who already knew the answer: "National! Mr. Kida said, Mr. Tanizaki and his sister, they went out to buy everyone's dinner."

"Tsk." Edogawa Ranpo didn't complain.

He didn't make it clear when he went out just now, not to mention pulling Dazai Osamu because of Dazai Osamu's nullification ability, and bringing Atsushi Nakajima is his attack power, and the second is indeed to train Atsushi Nakajima.

Just because he showed this, and the Tanizaki brothers and sisters have the ability to protect themselves, not to mention that detective agencies often encountered such things before, so everyone's sense of crisis is not so strong.

They, even with Edogawa Ranpo himself, did not take the combination too seriously before that.

It's okay if it's just a combination, but why is it related to the port mafia who knows the Armed Detective Agency?

Edogawa Ranpo glanced at Osamu Dazai, whose face also became serious, and gave the next order to Atsushi Nakajima: "Contact Tanizaki, let him return to the detective agency quickly."

"Yes!" Atsushi Nakajima replied Edogawa Ranpo with honorifics, and dialed Tanizaki's number, but Junichiro Tanizaki, who always answered the phone quickly, unexpectedly waited until Atsushi Nakajima dialed the number this time. It took three calls to answer.

Atsushi Nakajima didn't even speak in a hurry, and he heard the gentle voice on the other side that should have been familiar, but at this moment it became terrifying like a ghost.

Tanizaki Junichiro said, "...I'm not in the mood to talk to you right now. Whatever you have urgently—"

Atsushi Nakajima was taken aback, but he didn't expect Ranpo Edogawa to grab his mobile phone directly: "Tanizaki, you stay where you are, Naomi will be fine."

Edogawa Ranpo's words are obviously a little more credible than Nakajima Atsushi, and the other party's own ability is enough to make the members of the detective agency trust.

Normally, Tanizaki Junichiro would obey orders.However, this time he gets involved with his sister Naomi, and his sanity disappears in an instant.

Even if it's 1 minute, half a minute - even if Mr. Ranpo can rush over as fast as possible, but Junichiro Tanizaki can't wait for even a second.

Tanizaki Junichiro watched Edogawa Ranpo go out, at the speed of Mr. Ranpo, no matter how fast, it would take at least ten minutes to come back, Tanizaki Junichiro couldn't wait so long.

He worried that if he was a second late, Naomi would encounter misfortune.Therefore, Junichiro Tanizaki still breathed anxiously through the phone, and he replied to Edogawa Ranpo: "Sorry, Mr. Ranpo."

Edogawa Luanbu looked at the hung up phone, his eyes widened in anger - this may be the first time anyone dared to hang up his phone.

But he can understand Tanizaki's mood at the moment.Edogawa scratched his hair randomly, and didn't waste time: "Anyway, let's go back now!"

Because of his younger sister, Tanizaki will show an aura that he doesn't usually have. Whether it's killing people or destroying the world, as long as he has something to do with his sister, no matter what, Tanizaki Junichiro will do it.

Originally, he went out alone, but there were a lot of ordinary members staying, so it would be more troublesome for him to buy dinner alone.In addition, he has never been able to stop his sister, so when the other party speaks and then follows up on his own, no matter what harsh tone Tanizaki Junichiro uses, it will be difficult for him to let Naomi go back.

It's just that Tanizaki Junichiro didn't expect that his sister disappeared from his eyes just by turning around.

At this moment, Tanizaki Junichiro's originally ordinary face looked like a Shura ghost descending into the world.He was not looking for the enemy mindlessly, but purposefully, looking at the crowd around——

who is it?It's their attack!How can it be?There is no breath!

hateful? !Where the hell!Give me Naomi back! !

Now is the time for ordinary people to get off work, and the roadside is full of innocent passers-by-but this also makes it easier for Tanizaki Junichiro to find his enemies.

The position of Tanizaki Junichiro is actually quite vague. His supernatural ability is not offensive, but a real illusion.And this ability is the most suitable ability for assassination.

The people in the detective agency, except Kunikida Doppo, are basically not righteous people in the conventional sense.Tanizaki Junichiro usually does not show this, but his danger has never been the lowest.

Even to some extent, he is more dangerous than Miyazawa Kenji of the martial arts faction.

Because of his ability, his training method is also related to breath - he will erase his own existence in his own ability, and therefore, he also has a certain advantage in distinguishing other people's breath.

"—I found you!" Even though there were so many obstacles, Junichiro Tanizaki still found the enemy immediately!He caught the enemy who made his sister disappear.

In the next instant, the scene in front of him changed.

"Welcome to Anne's room." The enemy who took away his sister said to him with such a smile on his face.

Edogawa Ranpo has already returned to the vicinity of the detective agency at the fastest speed. He easily deduced the location of Tanizaki Junichiro in his mind, and found the trace of the enemy more quickly than Tanizaki Junichiro.

The space system is really annoying!With this in mind, Edogawa dragged Atsushi Nakajima in a random step, and also stepped into [Annie's room].

This ability can bring people around into a different space, so people will disappear without a trace—no, not without a trace.Although there are no traces of Kenji Miyazawa's disappearance, the traces of Lucy Maude Montgomery, the owner of the supernatural power, will not disappear.

Lucy Maud Montgomery, part of the group.She captured Miyazawa Kenji and Tanizaki Naomi, and during the day, she missed a comatose "Edogawa Ranpo".

But she never expected that if she missed one in the afternoon, she would see another exactly the same figure again at dusk.

For a while, Lucy was a little suspicious that she was born again, twins?

But that's not what's shown in the data.

Because of his relationship with the port mafia, Osamu Dazai left halfway to do other things.But even if Osamu Dazai is here, his abilities may not be effective in this different dimension.Because Lucy herself also entered this space.

If you use invalidation, the effect can only be achieved before Lucy comes in. Before seeing Lucy, Edogawa Ranpo is not sure whether this space ability can be released from being imprisoned by Osamu Dazai because of the elimination of the supernatural power people inside the space.It is more likely that Osamu Dazai can only make Lucy unable to use abilities.

Junichiro Tanizaki was a little surprised when he saw Ranpo Edogawa and Atsushi Nakajima, but he immediately explained the situation——

However, this explanation only needs to be explained to Atsushi Nakajima, the moment Edogawa Ranpo came in, he understood everything.

His eyes fell on the small room.

In addition to the captured Miyazawa Kenji and Tanizaki Naomi, a face he is most familiar with is also among them.

Without a hat, "Ranbu"'s already messy hair became more obvious. He was controlled by the doll's huge hand, his hands and feet were restrained and suspended in the air, and his brows were slightly frowned.

He tilted his head, and there were horrible marks on the side of his neck that looked like he had been scratched by something-and this was not the injury caused by Annie's room.

He can't wait too long.Edogawa Ranpo confirmed this, and immediately ordered Tanizaki Junichiro and Nakajima Atsushi to leave this supernatural space!

"Atsu, Tanizaki!"

Shi Wu didn't know what happened outside. After he was attacked by Yumeno Hisaku, his consciousness was cut off and he fell into darkness.

It's not an adjective, it's true - it's pitch black.

But Shi Wu didn't realize this, and he felt a little confused.

It's like Ishikawa Woodpecker can use supernatural powers on Shiwu himself, and he will capture his own past before he lost his memory.This kind of supernatural ability of the spiritual system is hard to guard against, so the system can only remedy it in the last "recording", replacing it with the experience of the previous world.

Kusaku Yumeno, code-named "Q", has the supernatural power of "brain hell", which can use hallucinations to invade the spirit of the target.

This time, the system cut off the synchronization of body and consciousness at the fastest speed, but Shi Wu was still affected to a certain extent.

But perhaps the only benefit brought about by amnesia is that Shi Wu didn't face his lost memories. He didn't even remember what was the most desperate and painful thing for him.

"Brain Hell" only had time to draw out the negative emotions in his heart.

Shi Wu couldn't see anything, he curled up and hid in a small corner of his consciousness, obviously couldn't perceive anything, but he still felt so sad.

Obviously can't remember, no memory——but, the suffocating feeling of drowning in the depths of the sea still makes Shiwu feel unbearable.

Amnesia will give people subconscious protection, but it also makes him much more vulnerable.

It's so uncomfortable, so painful, I feel like I can't even breathe smoothly, and I'm being strangled by someone, as if I'm going to die.

Shi Wu curled himself up even tighter in this conscious world that only belonged to him.

[*&...%￥%! ! 】

"Dazai hasn't come back yet!" Edogawa Ranpo frowned and shouted.Ordinary members have been protected and moved to another place. Just 10 minutes ago, Junichiro Tanizaki and Atsushi Nakajima teamed up to defeat the enemy of that combination and rescued everyone.

It's just that Tanizaki Naomi and Miyazawa Kenji don't have any problems, but Shi Wu has never woken up.

The marks on the side of the neck were so conspicuous that Edogawa Ranpo couldn't help but cover that spot with his hands, trying not to see it.

The child lying on the bed in the infirmary kept frowning. Anyone could feel his pain and despair at the moment, but no one could do anything about it.

Except Dazai Osamu who is still determining the position of Q.

Dazai Osamu's ability has certain restrictions. For example, in this case, he cannot touch the no-end ability effect at all. Instead, he must find Q and invalidate the puppet that Q carries with him. Can.

"Why is Dazai so slow!" Edogawa Ranpo couldn't help complaining again.

Shi Wu can't understand his sadness at the moment, but no matter how fragile he is, Shi Wu is still Shi Wu after all, he has never been an ordinary person, and he never needs to be saved.

[*&&%￥%@#￥! ! 】

Speaking of which, since just now, he has been able to hear the sound of electronic garbled currents.

【————】

Well?

【%#￥………The connection is successful! 】

The familiar electronics of the system sounded, and Shi Wu immediately escaped from the original pure darkness the moment he heard this sound.

【I am back. 】

At this moment, except for the past before death that has not been restored, all the memories after encountering the system have come back.

The negative emotions caused by the influence of "brain hell" gradually dissipated from my heart.

On the one hand, his heart told him that the system is not human, it has no feelings, and cannot be trusted.

But on the other hand, maybe it was the plot of the baby bird, maybe it was rescued once, or it was the companionship from these worlds, Shi Wu didn't even notice it himself, facing the one who came back to him, who he didn't trust The inhuman system acted like a baby.

"I feel a little bit sad," he said.

"Can you comfort me with a word?"

The original mechanized system was silent for a long time, as if this order was not in his settings.

Shi Wu waited for a while, but did not get a reply, which made him feel a little disappointed.

Resisting the "brain hell" consumed Shi Wu's energy, and his consciousness began to become blurred, but just when he had such emotions, the electronic sound that appeared to be thin and indifferent from the system sounded again in his mind.

He said: [Thank you for your hard work. 】

In consciousness, Shi Wu blinked his eyes in surprise, although this comfort was very simple and ordinary, Shi Wu still felt satisfied, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he laughed.

Because of this, he didn't hear it. After the system paused for a long time to make sure that he was asleep, it whispered his real name before he lost his memory, as if talking to himself.

【...Muichiro. 】

Edogawa Ranpo immediately noticed that Shi Wu's mood had stabilized. He subconsciously opened Shi Wu's collar, but found that the black scratches on it hadn't disappeared, and even got deeper.

Edogawa Ranpo's expression turned extremely ugly in an instant.

He couldn't understand.

Why do you smile lightheartedly because you see despair?

The author has something to say: Shi Wu: No, it’s not what you think, listen to my explanation?
