cat blues

Fukuzawa Yukichi trusted Edogawa Ranpo's reasoning ability very much, so even if he said something obviously out of common sense, Fukuzawa Yukichi did not say anything to refute the other party, but looked at it with a serious face and a little guard He turned to the black-haired man in front of him.

Edogawa Ranpo could naturally tell Fukuzawa Yukichi's reaction, and he also showed a happy expression when he saw that the people he recognized trusted him so much.

Edogawa Ranpo has never told anyone except his parents that he could actually see all kinds of non-human beings when he was a child, but as he grew up, he lost the power to see incredible creatures.

And hearing Edogawa Ranpo's words, Oda Sakunosuke, who had already recognized the two people opposite him, looked at the black-haired man in front of him with some surprise.

Ghost Lantern just raised his eyebrows, without any intention of denying it at all, "As expected of Edogawa, you are right."

As he said, he put the weight of the big cat on his shoulders, held the cat with only one left hand, and stretched out his right hand, a thick and scary mace that should have been left in that warehouse did not know It flew over from somewhere and fell into his hands. He casually smashed the mace on the ground, "Hello, I'm a ghost lamp, a ghost."

As he spoke, the hair on his forehead spread out, revealing a sharp ghost horn.

"Ghost?" Although the other party did such a powerful thing, none of the people present could feel the malice of this self-proclaimed ghost. Edogawa Ranpo immediately jumped from behind Fukuzawa Yukichi out.

"Good response." Gui Deng nodded in satisfaction, "As expected, he is indeed the son of Edogawa."

"Hey, this reflects, you know my parents?" Edogawa Ranpo's head immediately lit up a light bulb.

"Yeah, although it seems to me that a person as capable as your parents should stay in hell as a jailer, but tsk, both of them have gone to heaven. The kind of broken man who can't show his ability at all every day What's so good about this place?"

Hearing that his parents had gone to heaven, Edogawa Ranpo was greatly relieved.

On the other hand, Oda Sakunosuke looked puzzled, do heaven and hell really exist in this world?

"Tsk." Ghost Lantern was quite dissatisfied when he recalled this matter, why wouldn't such a capable person stay in hell and work hard, and go to heaven!What good is the kingdom of heaven!The kingdom of heaven can't even find a way to take a look at the situation in this world like hell.

But those two couples are indeed rare pure and kind people, and it is a matter of course to go to heaven. It's just a pity, it's really a pity, even after death, they can still shine!

Ghost Lamp decided not to think about those good seedlings that slipped away from his hands, "Don't say that some of these are gone, please take good care of this cat."

As he said, he handed over the big cat he was holding in his hand with some reluctance, "This cat has been blessed by many gods and ghosts, and its life span is almost the same as that of humans."

As soon as these words came out, Fukuzawa Yukichi and Edogawa Ranpo felt a sense of joy, at least they didn't have to worry about parting with Maomao in their lifetime.On the other side, Oda Sakunosuke thought of the previous commission of the ghost lamp, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He wanted to talk, but he had to keep quiet because the other party was communicating with Fukuzawa Yukichi.

"Well, although I think you will never harm this cat, you still have to give a warning." Ghost Lantern said with a cold face, "This cat is blessed by the gods and ghosts, so you did it. What hurt intentionally..."

"Will you be condemned by God?" Edogawa Ranpo was really curious.

"No, at least not while alive." Ghost Lantern said in a long voice, implying that it's hard to say when he's dead.

——This guy definitely has quite a lot of power in hell, right?The three thought at the same time.

"By the way, this kid." After he finished speaking, he turned around and pulled the orange-haired boy who seemed to be wandering away. "This is the little devil that stupid cat wanted to raise before it was injured, so I will leave it to you."

"Why does it feel like I've been left alone..." Before Edogawa Ranpo could finish his words, Fukuzawa Yukichi patted his back gently.

"Then I hired this boy to take care of the cat." The ghost lamp pulled Oda Sakunosuke again, and Oda Sakunosuke found that his own strength could not resist the man in front of him who claimed to be a ghost, so he had no choice but to follow the other's strength obediently. In the past, "You two, one doesn't work hard, and the other can barely take care of yourself."

As he spoke, he casually pointed at Silver Wolf and the famous detective opposite, his actions were a little impolite, but the comment was so sharp that they couldn't refute it at all.

"The cat's feet are broken again, so I'll just give it to it...by the way, I'll hire a nanny for you as well." Ghost Lamp's tone did not allow for any rejection, "You can use the card I gave you, and the password is XXXXXX, otherwise pay It’s okay to give it to the cat, anyway, it’s the cat’s own money.”

He said, in a more sincere tone, "I'm not going to pay someone who doesn't work for hell!"

"..." This explanation always feels better than not explaining, even Oda Sakunosuke, who doesn't know how to read the air, feels speechless embarrassment.

Fukuzawa Yukichi has also recognized the red-haired boy opposite at this time. It was the boy who appeared at the scene when he and Ranpo met for the first time. He was a freelance killer.

"He's not there anymore, judging by his appearance, he should be doing odd jobs for anyone to make money now, right?" Edogawa Ranpo quickly pointed out this point, "And not being a killer for at least half a year ? Hasn't killed anyone since he stopped being a killer."

Fukuzawa Yukichi was also taken aback, he looked at Oda Sakunosuke, "May I know the reason?"

"It's okay, it's not a serious reason." Oda Sakunosuke said honestly, he also has a deep memory of the two people in front of him, whether it is a famous detective who can see through the truth at a glance or a single move My own silver-haired swordsman, "I want to be a novelist. Someone told me that writing novels is writing life, and those who take the lives of others are not qualified to write novels..."

"Heh." The Ghost Lamp at the side suddenly let out a mocking laugh, almost choking Oda Sakunosuke who was speaking.

"Forget it, it would be a good thing if you are willing to follow such a law of survival." Ghost Lantern turned around and said, then looked at the few people present with sharp eyes, "You need to know that those who kill unjustly will definitely be You will fall into hell, but if you do enough good deeds during your lifetime, you can offset the retribution of evil deeds.”

Fukuzawa Yukichi and Oda Sakunosuke, who were stared at by him, could clearly feel that they were the ones the other party was referring to, "Okay, I won't talk about this with you, anyway, because this cat is too fast Growing up, resulting in osteoporosis, lack of calcium and various vitamins, I suggest you take it to a reliable pet store, and buy more nutrition for it by the way."

"This stupid cat has always been good at taking care of others, but not so good at taking care of itself." Ghost Lantern looked at some big cats who didn't quite understand their conversation. Now the big cat was lying on the silver-haired swordsman, hooking its claws The orange-haired boy's hair grew, and the orange-haired boy moved his body closer to prevent the big cat from working too hard.

"Really, I still like brightly colored things." Gui Deng folded his hands helplessly, but he couldn't help but recall the first time a thousand years ago with this cat that was brought back by Tuji Nitian. It was obviously just a cat. , but they are deeply loved by Inari God, Tujini and Daji. The three female "people" almost didn't fight because of this cat.In the end, it was he who came forward and took the cat to Yan Mo Hall to end this senseless farce.

Even soon he is really fragrant, this cat is so capable and so cute.When it was in Yan Mo Hall, how much time I saved myself!Even Tujini, who was still difficult to deal with at that time, would honestly carry out the work of leading the class under the plea of ​​the cat, and even King Yan Mo would honestly correct the documents every day, because the cat was in charge of the account. On a whim, I will buy weird torture instruments that are completely useless!

Not to mention that big cats can also take care of people's daily life, cook for themselves, and squeeze meatballs for themselves when they are exhausted!

But such a capable cat still chooses to be reincarnated in the end!And it disappeared for so many years in one turn, and it was not discovered until now!

Ghost Lamp, who likes small animals very much, felt itchy when he thought of the soft feel at the beginning. He reached out decisively, grabbed Yuji Maomao's cat's paw, and began to pinch happily. The touch of the pad is still the same as before. Well, let him not want to let go at all.

Seeing the behavior of the ghost lamp, the two people who were originally bristling because of each other's words had a subtle feeling that they didn't know what expression to put on.

"Anyway, treat this cat well." Finally, he licked the big cat's head, messing up its hair, and then the ghost lamp put down his hand in satisfaction, "I'm leaving, I hope it won't be too early in the future I met you." If we meet them, we must keep them as jailers!That way the green-eyed kid would stay with him too, killing two birds with one stone!

After speaking, he disappeared into the air, together with the black mace, leaving only a few people looking at each other.

"That..." Oda Sakunosuke was about to speak in embarrassment, but Fukuzawa Yukichi had already spoken first.

"Leaving aside what the gentleman said before..." Fukuzawa Yukichi couldn't help but shift his gaze when recalling the other party's evaluation of himself and Ranpo, "In short, we really need you to stay and help at the moment. Take care of Mr. Yukichi."

"Mr. Yukichi...do you mean this cat?" Oda Sakunosuke was a little puzzled. He had investigated it at that time, and it was obvious that Fukuzawa Yukichi was the name of the silver-haired man in front of him.

"Yes~" Edogawa Ranpo nodded honestly. He accepted his comment of "not working hard and not distinguishing grains" well, "If we are really asked to do it, Mr. Fukuzawa can probably only do it. Have you hired a housekeeper? What's more, there is a new person to take care of now."

Edogawa Ranpo said and glanced at the orange-haired boy who looked a little dazed, "Anyway, I'm hiring someone. It's better to hire you than housekeeping. After all, you're that ghost. No, it's more appropriate to say it's a ghost. It's recommended." oh."

"Besides, I do have plans to hire you, but it's not as a cat's nanny, but as a member of the detective agency, I want to invite you to join." Fukuzawa Yukichi said seriously, The content of what he said was very serious, the only problem was that he was holding a super big cat now, which seemed out of place.

Oda Sakunosuke felt that even though he encountered a series of unbelievable incidents all day today, his original world view was shattered one after another, and he was even pulled over by a horned ghost and forced to be a cat's nanny, but in the end .He still got one of the best invites.

"I'm joining, please give me more advice in the future."
