Political bigwigs in Yokohama
Chapter 108 Unequal Transactions
In the Armed Detective Agency on the fourth floor.
As an internal staff member, Haruno Kirako was diligently cleaning and mopping the floor with a mop.
I am going to arrange some items I just bought and put them on the top of the cabinet.
The territory of the Armed Detective Agency is relatively small, and the storage must be well planned.
However, Haruno Qiluozi is small and small, and she is a little distressed when holding the box, how to put it in it.
Just when Haruno Kirako was having a headache, Ranpo Edogawa, who was sitting at his desk eating snacks and drinking soda, suddenly said, "Haruno-chan, you don't have to deal with that, go make tea first!"
"Ah?" Haruno Kirako didn't understand why Edogawa Ranpo said that, but obediently put down the box.
While eating a donut, the famous detective muttered, "What does Kazuya-san think of a detective agency, and sneaking into something..."
Oda Sakunosuke stood under the small brick-red building, looking carefully.
A look of doubt flashed in his eyes.
It's not an illusion, in this building, there really is an enchantment arranged by his family and Mi-sama.
But, didn't Master Kazuya say before that he let himself infiltrate a very important hostile organization?
What is going on here?
Oda Sakunosuke couldn't figure it out.
Simply, he didn't think too much about it, and was going to go and see for himself before talking about other things.
After all, he himself is a killer with superpowers. After he signed the contract with Nakahara Kazuya, Oda Sakunosuke clearly felt that his physical fitness was improving in an all-round way.
Strength, speed, reaction to enemies and more.
Not to mention that Kazuya Nakahara gave him a lot of various guards.
Therefore, Oda Sakunosuke was not afraid at all, straightened his brand new windbreaker slightly, and went straight up the stairs.
After passing the vortex coffee shop on the first floor, the legal office on the second floor, and the third floor is obviously where my family and Mr. Mi lived, I came to the armed detective agency on the fourth floor of the destination.
Oda Sakunosuke adjusted his breathing and knocked lightly on the door.
A woman with brisk steps came to open the door.
"Hello, do you have a commission?" Haruno Kirako looked at Oda Sakunosuke and asked with a smile.
Oda Sakunosuke shook his head lightly, and said, "No, I'm here to apply for a job at the Armed Detective Agency."
Yes, this was arranged by Zhong Yuan and Mi.
I came to this very small detective agency to apply for a job. As for the specific reason... Mr. Kazuya will know when the time comes.
"Huh? Are you looking for a job?" Haruno Qiluozi was taken aback when he heard this.
Is the Armed Detective Agency ready to recruit new recruits recently?
When he was puzzled, he heard Edogawa's random steps, "Haruno-chan, don't stand in a daze at the door...Come here and help me get some marbles! You can just ask Mr. Curry to go to the president's office!"
"Mr. Ranpo..." Haruno Qiluozi was taken aback when he heard this.
She was surprised: "Do you know Mr. Ranpo?"
"Ah, yes..." Oda Sakunosuke's face was a little numb.
Of course he knows Edogawa Ranpo!
Know more about the meaning of Edogawa Ranpo to his family and Ya-sama.
Oda Sakunosuke asked awkwardly: "Mr. Ranpo, why are you here?"
Edogawa Ranpo handed the empty soda bottle in his hand to Haruno Kirako who ran over, and said, "Because I am the detective of this detective agency!"
He waved his hand and said, "Go to the president's office!"
"Uh..." Oda Sakunosuke was stunned for a long time, but he still didn't say anything, and walked directly to the president's office.
Fukuzawa Yukichi is currently processing paperwork in the president's office.
The door was knocked awake.
"Please come in." Fukuzawa Yukichi put down his pen.
The door was opened, and Oda Sakunosuke was standing at the door.
"Hello, President, I'm Sakunosuke Oda, and I'm here to apply for a job."
Fukuzawa Yukichi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Is that him?
The person Kazuya-san mentioned yesterday.
yesterday.
When Nakahara Kazuya came to accompany Edogawa Ranpo to drink afternoon tea, he chatted with Fukuzawa Yukichi by the way.
"Your Excellency Fukuzawa, there is something I would like to ask you to do."
"Help? What's the matter?" Fukuzawa Yukichi was puzzled.
In his opinion, Zhongyuan Hemi is strong enough to solve all the troubles, so why does he need his help?
Kazumi Zhongyuan smiled slightly and said, "To put it simply, I have a subordinate, and tomorrow I am going to send him to 'infiltrate' the detective agency."
"Huh?" Fukuzawa Yukichi was really a little confused.
Zhongyuan and Mi laughed, and said: "I say that, Fukuzawa-dono certainly doesn't understand, and I can't say the reason now, Fukuzawa-dono just thinks that someone is going to a detective agency to apply for a job, and just do what you want." .”
Fukuzawa Yukichi continued to be confused.
Turning to look at Edogawa Ranpo.
The famous detective nodded casually while biting the Strawberry Daifuku.
Well, since Ranpo Edogawa has no objections, Fukuzawa Yukichi naturally has no objections.
However, the curiosity in his heart is indispensable.
Fukuzawa Yukichi looked at Sakunosuke Oda and asked, "Oda-kun, you said you were going to apply for a job at a detective agency. What was your previous job?"
He really doesn't know.
Because Nakahara Kazuya only said that he was his subordinate.
Oda Sakunosuke was silent for a moment.
He remembered what Zhongyuan Kazumi had told him before, "When you go there, you just answer whatever the other party asks, and you don't need to lie, and you don't need to lie."
Oda Sakunosuke also didn't understand why Nakahara Kazuya said that, but now he certainly understands that Edogawa Ranpo is sitting outside.
He didn't have the confidence to hide from Edogawa Ranpo.
Therefore, Oda Sakunosuke said honestly: "I used to be a low-level staff at the port MAFIA, and now I am a member of the advisory team outside the port MAFIA."
"Oh?" Fukuzawa Yukichi frowned slightly.
He asked, "Aren't you a direct subordinate of Mr. Hemi?"
Oda Sakunosuke continued to be honest, "Yes."
Fukuzawa Yukichi didn't understand, "Then why did you come to the detective agency?"
Oda Sakunosuke hesitated slightly.
In fact, he has a natural personality, not stupid.
Therefore, Oda Sakunosuke is actually very clear about what happened before.
But, do you want to tell Fukuzawa Yukichi?
After a brief consideration, Oda Sakunosuke decided, say!
After all, Zhongyuan and Mi never talk nonsense. Since they have been told in advance that there is no need to lie, then there is no need to lie.
At the moment, Sakunosuke Oda briefly explained the reason why he transferred from the port MAFIA to the advisory force outside the port MAFIA.
By the way, it was also Zhong Yuan Kazumi's intention that he came here.
Fukuzawa Yukichi is worthy of being Mori Ogai's old partner. Just hearing what Oda Sakunosuke said, you can know what Kazuya Nakahara is worried about.
He just looked at Oda Sakunosuke.
Suddenly he said, "You just said that you haven't killed anyone for many years?"
"Yes." Oda Sakunosuke nodded, it was no secret.
When I was 14 years old, I met Natsume Soseki, decided to become a novelist, and told the story of never killing people again.
Fukuzawa Yukichi was surprised when he heard this, "Natsume? Is it Mr. Natsume Soseki?"
"Uh..." Oda Sakunosuke was stunned.
He was surprised: "Do you know that old gentleman?"
"That's my teacher." Fukuzawa Yukichi said.
He looks more pleasing to Oda Sakunosuke now.
At the same time, Fukuzawa Yukichi also understood why Nakahara Kazuya asked Oda Sakunosuke to apply for a job.
Oh no, it's not job hunting, it's sneaking.
However, Fukuzawa Yukichi believes that Oda Sakunosuke can pass his test of joining the company.
Office area outside.
Haruno Kirako had already helped Edogawa Ranpo get the marbles, she cleaned them and handed them over to Edogawa Ranpo, and asked, "Mr. Ranpo, do you know that person just now?"
"Mr. Kazuya's subordinate!" Ranpo Edogawa picked up a marble to shine the sun, "I can ask him to do any work in the future."
"Ah, is that so?"
Just as he was speaking, the door of the president's office was opened.
Fukuzawa Yukichi came out with Oda Sakunosuke.
He introduced: "Oda Sakunosuke is a member of our detective agency from today on."
Saying that, Fukuzawa Yukichi glanced at Edogawa Ranpo.
Edogawa Ranpo casually agreed: "President, I understand!"
"Mr. Ranpo, please give me your advice." When Fukuzawa Yukichi returned to the president's office, Oda Sakunosuke was serious.
Edogawa looked at Oda Sakunosuke at a random pace, gesturing at the boxes in the corner of the room, "Curry-kun, put those boxes away first, and then go out with me to buy some dim sum."
Oda Sakunosuke put the box on the top of the cabinet casually, and said, "Mr. Ranpo, it's better to eat less snacks outside. Didn't Master Kazuya send you a lot of desserts?"
Edogawa puffed his cheeks in dissatisfaction, and said, "Why is this the same!"
Thick snacks and desserts are not the same!
He yelled: "Mr. Curry, accompany me out to buy thick dim sum!"
The corner of Oda Sakunosuke's mouth twitched, but he still didn't say anything.
In the end, I accompanied Edogawa Ranpo out to buy some dim sum.
The door of the infirmary was opened, Yosano Akiko poked his head out, "Is it okay for Mr. Ranpo to go out like this?"
His famous detective is the best in the world in intelligence, but he is also the best in the world in being self-willed!
Especially these days, Mr. Kazuya is super indulgent to Mr. Ranpo...
This new Oda Sakunosuke won't take Mr. Ranpo out, can't he bring him back?
"Uh... probably not?" Haruno Qi Luozi didn't dare to say anything.
The two women looked at each other.
With the death of André Gide, the gray ghost disappeared, and Yokohama, which had been in chaos, calmed down as quickly as possible.
In this chaos, MAFIA, the port of the world's largest yakuza organization in Yokohama, has obtained the greatest benefits.
The biggest gain is of course the ability license.
With this thing, the port MAFIA officially began to clean up and completely became a legal organization.
Even government departments, or the military and police can no longer just make trouble casually.
In addition, in the chaos, a large number of small organizations were scattered, and the port MAFIA brought the sites of these small organizations into the port MAFIA's sphere of influence at the fastest speed.
Of course, in addition to these, there is the new cadre candidate, Ango Sakaguchi.
The former intelligence agent of the Supernatural Secret Service was directly forced by Mori Ogai to accept all kinds of troubles left by the former port MAFIA cadre Morita.
Originally, Ango Sakaguchi had thought about it in his heart, should he be passive and sabotage?
After all, he wants to go back to the Supernatural Secret Service Division, and he doesn't want to stay in the port MAFIA at all!
The position of the candidate for the port MAFIA cadre is also respectful.
It's a pity that Mori Ogai is a black-hearted leader, and Nakahara Kazuya is not a kind person.
Facing the troubles left by Morita about the powder business, Ango Sakaguchi pushed his glasses, and consciously started working overtime silently.
"Is Sakaguchi-kun so conscious?"
When Nakahara Kazuya and Mori Ogai were having morning tea, they asked curiously.
Mori Ogai smiled and said, "Otherwise, why would I not be willing to let Sakaguchi go? This is a ruthless person who can say that he will not go to get off work until he is off work!"
"Uh... let's do it!" Zhongyuan Kazumi was speechless.
Mori Ogai took a sip of tea and asked casually, "Is Mr. Kazuya here today?"
It stands to reason that Andre Gide died, and the port MAFIA also got the ability license. After the transaction is over, Zhongyuan and Mi should have no interest in running to the port MAFIA, right?
Nakahara Kazuya smiled slightly and said, "No!" He looked at Mori Ogai, and said softly, "Mr. Mori, have you forgotten the content of the original transaction?"
Mori Ogai frowned, his expression became serious, and he asked: "Mr. Kazuya, I agreed at the beginning that I would not stop you from seeing Verlaine, so you don't think you have something to do?"
Kazumi Zhongyuan said with a flat expression: "Mr. Sen, I have made a deal with Verlaine."
"Deal?" Mori Ogai had a bad feeling.
The blond girl eating cake next to her looked up at Kazuya Nakahara.
"Yes." Nakahara Kazumi nodded slightly.
At this moment, the landline on Mori Ogai's desk rang.
Alice jumped up and ran to answer the phone.
A message was given over there.
Verlaine, who had been in the basement, disappeared.
"Mr. Kazuya..." Mori Ogai's expression became serious.
Nakahara Kazuya stared at Mori Ogai, and said softly, "Mr. Mori, you shouldn't be surprised!"
His tone became light, and he said, "You know from the very beginning that I hate Verlaine very much."
Mori Ogai's purple eyes changed for a while before he said, "Yeah, I shouldn't be surprised, but Mr. Kazuya, have you ever thought about Chuya-kun?"
Zhong Yuan and Mi smiled lightly and said, "Zhong is also a good boy."
Mori Ogai frowned even tighter.
Kazumi Zhongyuan stood up and said, "Mr. Mori, I'll take my leave first. By the way, please ask for a few days off in advance. The child needs time to accept it."
Nakahara and Mi left.
Mori Ogai looked at Alice next to him, and said puzzledly: "Alice-chan, Mr. Kazuya seems to be really not afraid of Chuya-kun turning against you? Why?"
"How do I know! Why does Lin Taro always ask me this kind of question? My personality and hobbies are clearly set by you, aren't you?" Alice yelled dissatisfied.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Alice-chan!" Mori Ogai hurriedly apologized, but he looked distressed, "This is really a big problem!"
And, he had to figure it out as soon as possible.
Otherwise...
If Zhongyuan Zhongya can abandon Verlaine today, then it is possible to abandon the port MAFIA in the future!
Mori Ogai thought for a long time, and said, "Speaking of which, Chuya-kun and Dazai-kun seem to have a heavy task today!"
He looked at Alice and asked, "Alice-chan, Mr. Zhongye is Mr. Verlaine's younger brother. He disappeared suddenly. I have to tell Mr. Zhongye!"
The blond girl looked disgusted, and said loudly: "Oh Lin Taro, what a side stage!"
"Hey~Alice-chan~"
Nakahara and Miko were not in the mood to care what Mori Ogai was doing.
He has now run to the abandoned shipyard where Rimbaud died.
Verlaine was standing here, staring at the shallow pit in a daze.
"Click!"
Nakahara Kazumi stepped up consciously and made some noise.
Verlaine raised his head and looked at Zhongyuan Hemi, with a trace of excitement in his eyes that he didn't usually have, and said, "Mr. Hemi, you are here, can we trade now?"
Zhongyuan Hemi stared at Verlaine, he nodded, but shook his head again, and said, "It's a deal, but not here?"
"Not here?" Verlaine frowned slightly.
"Yes," Nakahara Kazuya said, "Come on, follow me to Tokyo."
In order for Verlaine to see Rimbaud's soul, a deal must be made.
However, since Zhongyuan and Mi have no registered permanent residence, they cannot conduct transactions, so they must go through a "middleman".
That is Ichihara Yuko.
Tokyo is really not far from Yokohama.
Not long after, Zhongyuan Kazumi brought Verlaine to the front of the store.
However, at this time, it still looks like an open space.
Zhongyuan and Mi are not worried about this, and the desire in Verlaine's heart probably exceeds that of most human beings.
"Mr. Verlaine really wants to see Mr. Rimbaud?" Nakahara Kazumi asked softly.
"Of course!" Verlaine nodded vigorously.
"Then come with me!"
Verlaine only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and a very strange house appeared in front of him.
He could feel the vast power in the house.
This made Verlaine tremble slightly.
Who is it that lives here?
Zhongyuan Hemi led the way into the courtyard and said, "Mr. Verlaine, please come with me!"
"Ah, okay." Verlaine followed Zhongyuan and Mi inside in a little confusion.
The door was opened, and Quan Luduo appeared at the door.
The two little girls held hands and shouted happily, "Master Hemi is back!"
"Master Kazuya is back!"
"I'm back, Xiaoquan, Xiaoduo..." Zhongyuan Hemi smiled softly.
"Come quickly! The master is already waiting for you..."
"Master is already waiting for you... Hurry up!"
Two little girls pulled people inside.
Zhong Yuan He Mi followed Quan Lu Duo Lu and said casually, "Mr. Verlaine, please follow me!"
Verlaine hurried to follow.
Go through the corridor and come to the big room.
Ichihara Yuko was already leaning on the beauty couch and waiting.
With slender fingers pinching the tobacco rod, wisps of incense wafted in the room.
Still wearing the strange black robe, part of the hair was pulled up high and fixed with hairpins. "Hemi, you're here."
"Miss Yuko." Nakahara Kazumi knelt down on one knee and saluted.
Ichihara Yuko said with a serious expression, "Kazuya, are you really going to do this?"
"Didn't you already know?" Zhongyuan Kazumi smiled lightly.
Ichihara Yuko was silent.
Verlaine walked over slowly, with a puzzled expression on his face, and asked, "Mr. Hemi, this is..."
Kazuya Nakahara stood up and introduced him: "This is Yuko Ichihara, a witch from the dimension, and this is also the owner of this shop." He explained clearly, and said: "The deal between me and you is complete in this world. If it doesn’t work, it can only be done here.”
Verlaine did not understand.
Ichihara Yuko said: "The reason is very simple, you can't pay the price of the transaction, so Kazuya must pay half of it for you."
Verlaine was taken aback, and he lost his voice: "I can't pay the price? Impossible, I'm a man-made god..."
Moreover, didn't Nakahara and Mi already demanded his soul as a price?
"It's because it's an artificial god!" Yuko Ichihara pouted.
She was very dissatisfied with her adopted son's insistence on making a deal with Verlaine.
Zhong Yuan and Mi Xiao said helplessly, "Miss Yuko, you don't need to mention these things..."
Ichihara Yuko snorted softly and said, "How can I not mention it?"
If it was someone else, Yuko Ichihara would definitely say a word too much, but Kazuya is not someone else.
She looked at Verlaine and said with a serious expression: "Mr. Verlaine, you have to understand that you are just a man-made god..." Yuko Ichihara said clearly, "Kazumi is a good boy, so he paid the price for you."
Verlaine was silent and surprised.
He wondered if the woman named Ichihara Yuko in front of him was lying?
But, there is no reason!
He has already promised Zhongyuan and Mi that he is willing to trade, so there is no need to play such tricks, right?
unless……
What Yuko Ichihara said is true!
Zhongyuan Hemi said helplessly, "Mr. Verlaine, you don't have to think too much, the transaction is always what you like." He stared at the other party and said, "Many times, transactions that seem unequal are nothing more than what each gets. Just need it."
Saying that, Nakahara Kazumi smiled lightly, and lightly brushed his fingers across his temples.
A lock of long silver-gray hair was cut off.
Nakahara Kazuya directly handed this bundle of hair to Ichihara Yuko, a red light flashed in his gray-blue eyes, and he said softly: "Miss Yuko, please make a deal!"
Both Nakahara and Ya have said that, and they have already cut off their hair, and Ichihara Yuko can't say anything even if he has an opinion.
She took a deep breath, looked up at Verlaine, and asked, "Mr. Paul Verlaine, are you willing to use your soul as a price in exchange for a reunion with Arthur Rimbaud's soul?"
In fact, Verlaine still has a lot to ask if he still understands, but, listening to Yuko Ichihara's words, his longing to see Rimbaud overwhelms everything.
He nodded vigorously and said, "I do."
As soon as he finished speaking, Verlaine saw a flower beside him, and a familiar tall man appeared in front of him.
Thick windbreaker, long smoky gray hair, cold and melancholy face...
"Artier..." Verlaine called out in a murmur.
With trembling hands slightly, he stroked the other's cheek.
The hands were cold, but Verlaine suddenly settled down.
Ah, this is Attil... this is Attil...
Rimbaud showed a melancholy smile, opened his mouth, and called silently.
Paul...
Beside, Nakahara Kazuya took out a handful of Yaken Toshiro.
Knife unsheathed.
"Quick! Faster!"
Zhong Yuanzhong also stepped on the gas pedal desperately.
Dazai Osamu stretched out his hand and grabbed the handlebar of the car, trying to divert Chuya Nakahara's attention, and said, "Chuya, don't be so anxious... Maybe my brother didn't go to Tokyo!"
"Absolutely!" Zhongyuan Zhong also looked ugly, holding the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and gritted his teeth: "Brother is definitely taking brother to find Miss Yuko!"
"Huh?" Osamu Dazai's mouth twitched, "Are you that sure? Your elder brother hates Verlaine very much!"
"Of course I'm sure!" Zhong Yuanzhong also looked gloomy: "I have known for a long time that my brother hates me, but I also sincerely regard my brother as my own brother, so..."
"So what?" Osamu Dazai felt a little confused about why Nakahara was also excited.
Zhong Yuanzhong didn't explain any more, but just stepped on the accelerator again.
It also made Osamu Dazai completely shut up.
The speed is too fast!
Osamu Dazai is not afraid of death, but it feels a bit pity to die like this just after being with the dwarf.
Moreover, dying in a car accident must be extremely painful!
He doesn't want it!
Fortunately, Nakahara Chuya's driving skills are good enough.
When he stopped at the destination, Osamu Dazai heaved a sigh of relief, feeling grateful for the first time.
It's okay, I'm still alive!
Zhongyuan didn't care what happened to Osamu Dazai, he didn't die anyway.
He jumped out of the car and rushed to Ichihara Yuko's store.
Zhong Yuanzhong didn't enter the store either, instead he went directly to the backyard.
Just passing by, I saw Zhongyuan and Mi walking out.
"Brother!" Zhong Yuan Zhong also rushed over, "Where's my brother?"
Zhongyuan Kazumi didn't say that Zhongyuan Zhongye was rude, but just said: "The transaction is completed."
"Has the transaction been completed?" Zhong Yuanzhong was also a little panicked, but not too surprised.
Zhongyuan Hemi looked at Zhongyuan Zhongye, pursed his lips, and said, "Yes, Zhongye...the deal is completed..."
"Ah, I know..." Zhong Yuan murmured, "So, I'm late again, right?"
Nakahara Kazuya lowered his eyes and did not speak.
Zhong Yuan also asked: "Brother, is he satisfied with the content of the transaction?"
Zhongyuan Kazumi tilted his head, and motioned him to look at Verlaine who was lying on the ground, always frowning. Although Verlaine, who looked gloomy, was not breathing now, it could be seen that he left with a smile on his face.
Zhongyuan Zhong was also silent, he naturally knew that Verlaine wanted to die for a long time...
It's just because I'm worried about myself that I keep living.
Zhong Yuan Zhong also said in a hoarse voice: "He...has he seen Uncle?"
The uncle is naturally Lan Tang.
Nakahara Kazumi nodded slightly, and said, "Yes...they are both very happy..."
Zhong Yuanzhong also lowered his head slightly.
Nakahara Kazuya reached out and touched Nakahara Chuya's head, then looked up at Dazai Osamu.
Osamu Dazai walked over silently, and patted Chuya Nakahara on the shoulder.
Nakahara and Mi pursed their lips, allowing Dazai Osamu to comfort Nakahara Chuya.
He walked straight out of the store.
Osamu Dazai watched Nakahara and Mi go away.
Frowning slightly.
Where did Mr. Kazuya's temple hair go?
Nakahara Chuya and Dazai did not stay long.
He knows very well that Miss Yuko's shop is not in the dimension and time, and it is not good for them to stay for a long time.
Zhong Yuanzhong also placed Verlaine in the back row of the car, bowed and saluted, and left with Osamu Dazai.
Ichihara Yuko looked down at the hair in her hand.
Recalling the conversation she had just had with Kazuya Nakahara.
Ichihara Yuko held the bundle of hair, looked at Kazuya with a somewhat inexplicable expression, and asked softly: "Heya, is it worth it?"
Zhongyuan Kazumi just looked at her, and said with a weird expression: "What do you think? Miss Yuko?"
I had no choice from the very beginning!
Ichihara Yuko sighed deeply again.
He Mi, He Mi, you have to understand that I am a dead person!
No matter what kind of life it is, it cannot be resurrected from death.
and so……
So, don't do what you shouldn't do!
Zhong Yuanhe walked casually.
My mind was in turmoil.
He naturally knew that Miss Yuko was a dead person, and she survived only because of Master Reed's desire, which escaped from all dimensions and time.
But... does this really count as survival?
Zhongyuan Kazumi's eyes became darker and darker.
All the people who passed by Zhongyuan and Mi, even if they couldn't see Zhongyuan and Mi, all unconsciously walked around from a distance.
At this moment, Zhongyuan Hemi's cell phone rang suddenly.
He froze for a moment, then looked down at the phone.
Nakahara and Misho set the voices on everyone's mobile phones, and this voice——is Mr. Ranpo's!
Thinking of Edogawa Ranpo, Nakahara and Ya's emotions of going down to the end subconsciously eased.
Connect to the phone.
"Moshi Moshi, Mr. Ranpo?...Oda Saku-kun passed the entrance examination once?...Hahaha, Oda Saku-kun is indeed a bit...ahem, anyway, thank you for your hard work...well, well, twenty boxes of lotus flowers Crisp!"
After chatting for a while and hanging up the phone, Zhongyuan and Mi couldn't help laughing.
Although Sakunosuke Oda was ordered to "infiltrate" the armed detective agency, the due assessment for joining the agency is also indispensable.
The Armed Detective Agency now has a total of three official clerks.
Fukuzawa Yukichi, Yosano Akiko, and Edogawa Ranpo.
Fukuzawa Yukichi was not suitable, and Yosano Akiko didn't go out easily, and in the end Edogawa Ranpo was in charge of evaluating Oda Sakunosuke.
However, Oda Sakunosuke is an intuitionist himself, and he is natural. After becoming the envoy of Nakahara Kazuya, his intuition became stronger.
Therefore, Edogawa Ranpo tried several times in a row to assess, but the results were...
Well, I can't say it didn't succeed, it can only be said that Edogawa was speechless.
The worst thing is that Oda Sakunosuke passed the assessment.
You can imagine how crazy Edogawa Ranpo was!
No wonder he called directly to "complain"!
After laughing for a while, Nakahara and Mijo shook their heads with a smile.
Mr. Ranpo is so cute!
Bring some more desserts to the Armed Detective Agency today!
No, no.
Mr. Ranpo seems to be still in the punishment period, so remember to bring some more later!
Kazuya Nakahara rushed to the Armed Detective Agency, and Ranpo Edogawa was eating dim sum at his desk.
Seeing Zhongyuan Hemi approaching, he unconsciously bulged his cheeks, and his emerald green eyes fell on Zhongyuan Hemi's temples.
Nakahara Kazumi smiled lightly and said, "Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Ranpo."
"Accounting."
"No problem." Zhongyuan and Mi are super easy to talk to.
Only then did Edogawa Ranpo become happy, and murmured to Nakahara Kazumi that there were only one-third of the sweets today, so little, the president is so cruel, and other trivial thoughts.
Zhongyuan Kazumi could only comfort him with a smile: "Be patient, it will be over soon!" He thought for a while, and came up with an idea, "Otherwise, I will bring some sweet Chinese dishes to Mr. Ranpo later?"
"Huh?" Edogawa Ranpo's eyes lit up, "Are there any sweet Chinese dishes?"
"Of course there are." Zhong Yuan and Mi nodded.
"Then bring a few more." Edogawa Ranpo decided decisively.
"No problem." Zhongyuan Kazumi agreed very simply.
Kazuya Nakahara was making a name for himself as a detective when he saw Sakunosuke Oda coming out of the president's office with a document.
"Master Kazuya." Oda Sakunosuke called out.
"Oda Sukun, do you have a job?" Nakahara Kazuya raised his eyebrows.
"Yes," Oda Sakunosuke handed the document to Edogawa Ranpo, and said, "The president said, let Mr. Ranpo go as soon as possible, this case has a big impact."
Zhong Yuan and Mi took a look, "Serial bombings?"
This is a typical social case, no wonder Fukuzawa Yukichi said so.
Edogawa Ranpo also quickly picked up his detective hat, ready to go out.
Edogawa walked out in random steps, usually accompanied by Fukuzawa Yukichi.
But this time, Oda Sakunosuke accompanied him.
Seeing Oda Sakunosuke accompany Edogawa to leave, Nakahara Kazuya couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
Do you trust Oda Saku-kun that much?
"Rather than believing in Oda Saku-kun, it would be better to say I believe in Kazuya-san!" It was Yosano Akiko who spoke.
Nakahara Kazumi looked back at her, and said in surprise, "Do you have anything to say to Miss Xie Ye?"
"Nothing, just wanted to say, good job." Yosano Akiko giggled and turned back to the infirmary.
Zhong Yuan and Mi were stunned for a moment before they came to their senses, dumbfounded.
Sure enough, Yosano Akiko really hates Mori Ogai!
However, this is not surprising.
Who made Mori Ogai really black-hearted!
Thinking of Zhongyuan Zhongya arriving at the last moment today, Zhongyuan Kazuya couldn't help shaking his head secretly.
It seems that we still can't give Mr. Mori too much face!
Otherwise, this guy will definitely think about something.
at night.
Both Dazai Nakahara and Sakunosuke Oda came back from get off work.
Zhongyuan Zhong also saw Zhongyuan Kazumi, and took the initiative to say: "Brother, I'm sorry for losing my temper before." Zhongyuan Hemi shook his head and said, "It's okay, I know what Mr. Verlaine means to Zhongye!"
Before his return, Verlaine was the only one of his kind in the Central Plains, and he had a relationship with Lan Tang, so it was inevitable that the Central Plains would be very concerned about Verlaine.
Nakahara Chuya sighed, and he looked at Nakahara Kazuya's temples.
At the temples, broken hair is flying.
Zhong Yuanzhong also said in a low voice: "I know, brother is doing it for me."
Otherwise, Zhong Yuan and Mi could ignore Verlaine to the end.
Now, although the method seems terrible, it gave Verlaine the best ending.
There was a hint of a smile in Zhongyuan Hemi's gray-blue eyes, and he knew that his lovely brother could understand his thoughts.
Of course, it has something to do with Dazai Osamu.
Osamu Dazai watched Chuya Nakahara communicate with Kazuya Nakahara from a distance, with a smile on his face.
He was more interested in asking Oda Sakunosuke about his experience today.
Hearing Oda Sakunosuke talk about today's admission assessment, he couldn't help laughing, "Oda Sakunosuke, you are as interesting as ever."
"Really?" Oda Sakunosuke disagreed.
Osamu Dazai asked again: "Oda Tsukuru, how do you feel at the detective agency?"
"Very good." Oda Sakunosuke said with a serious expression: "The president and Mr. Ranpo are both very good." He recalled the experience of going out to work today, and said with admiration: "Or, Mr. Ranpo is better than I imagined. Even more powerful, Dazai, do you believe it? Mr. Ranpo saw the scene of the crime, and he knew everything in just one minute, including who the criminal was, how the other party committed the crime, and what was the motive for committing the crime. It's all clear."
"So powerful?" It was Nakahara Chuya who happened to walk over to speak.
Oda Sakunosuke nodded vigorously, and said, "Mr. Ranpo is that powerful!"
The author has something to say: the deal between He Mi and Verlaine was really unequal, Verlaine couldn't pay enough, so He Mi paid the other half for him.
Of course, don't think that He Mi is at a disadvantage, he also has his own purpose.
As the text says, each takes what he needs.

感谢在2021-08-0223:16:48~2021-08-0323:03:13期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
Thanks to the little angel of irrigation nutrient solution: 52 bottles of Luo Zhiqi; 2334125220 bottles;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
As an internal staff member, Haruno Kirako was diligently cleaning and mopping the floor with a mop.
I am going to arrange some items I just bought and put them on the top of the cabinet.
The territory of the Armed Detective Agency is relatively small, and the storage must be well planned.
However, Haruno Qiluozi is small and small, and she is a little distressed when holding the box, how to put it in it.
Just when Haruno Kirako was having a headache, Ranpo Edogawa, who was sitting at his desk eating snacks and drinking soda, suddenly said, "Haruno-chan, you don't have to deal with that, go make tea first!"
"Ah?" Haruno Kirako didn't understand why Edogawa Ranpo said that, but obediently put down the box.
While eating a donut, the famous detective muttered, "What does Kazuya-san think of a detective agency, and sneaking into something..."
Oda Sakunosuke stood under the small brick-red building, looking carefully.
A look of doubt flashed in his eyes.
It's not an illusion, in this building, there really is an enchantment arranged by his family and Mi-sama.
But, didn't Master Kazuya say before that he let himself infiltrate a very important hostile organization?
What is going on here?
Oda Sakunosuke couldn't figure it out.
Simply, he didn't think too much about it, and was going to go and see for himself before talking about other things.
After all, he himself is a killer with superpowers. After he signed the contract with Nakahara Kazuya, Oda Sakunosuke clearly felt that his physical fitness was improving in an all-round way.
Strength, speed, reaction to enemies and more.
Not to mention that Kazuya Nakahara gave him a lot of various guards.
Therefore, Oda Sakunosuke was not afraid at all, straightened his brand new windbreaker slightly, and went straight up the stairs.
After passing the vortex coffee shop on the first floor, the legal office on the second floor, and the third floor is obviously where my family and Mr. Mi lived, I came to the armed detective agency on the fourth floor of the destination.
Oda Sakunosuke adjusted his breathing and knocked lightly on the door.
A woman with brisk steps came to open the door.
"Hello, do you have a commission?" Haruno Kirako looked at Oda Sakunosuke and asked with a smile.
Oda Sakunosuke shook his head lightly, and said, "No, I'm here to apply for a job at the Armed Detective Agency."
Yes, this was arranged by Zhong Yuan and Mi.
I came to this very small detective agency to apply for a job. As for the specific reason... Mr. Kazuya will know when the time comes.
"Huh? Are you looking for a job?" Haruno Qiluozi was taken aback when he heard this.
Is the Armed Detective Agency ready to recruit new recruits recently?
When he was puzzled, he heard Edogawa's random steps, "Haruno-chan, don't stand in a daze at the door...Come here and help me get some marbles! You can just ask Mr. Curry to go to the president's office!"
"Mr. Ranpo..." Haruno Qiluozi was taken aback when he heard this.
She was surprised: "Do you know Mr. Ranpo?"
"Ah, yes..." Oda Sakunosuke's face was a little numb.
Of course he knows Edogawa Ranpo!
Know more about the meaning of Edogawa Ranpo to his family and Ya-sama.
Oda Sakunosuke asked awkwardly: "Mr. Ranpo, why are you here?"
Edogawa Ranpo handed the empty soda bottle in his hand to Haruno Kirako who ran over, and said, "Because I am the detective of this detective agency!"
He waved his hand and said, "Go to the president's office!"
"Uh..." Oda Sakunosuke was stunned for a long time, but he still didn't say anything, and walked directly to the president's office.
Fukuzawa Yukichi is currently processing paperwork in the president's office.
The door was knocked awake.
"Please come in." Fukuzawa Yukichi put down his pen.
The door was opened, and Oda Sakunosuke was standing at the door.
"Hello, President, I'm Sakunosuke Oda, and I'm here to apply for a job."
Fukuzawa Yukichi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Is that him?
The person Kazuya-san mentioned yesterday.
yesterday.
When Nakahara Kazuya came to accompany Edogawa Ranpo to drink afternoon tea, he chatted with Fukuzawa Yukichi by the way.
"Your Excellency Fukuzawa, there is something I would like to ask you to do."
"Help? What's the matter?" Fukuzawa Yukichi was puzzled.
In his opinion, Zhongyuan Hemi is strong enough to solve all the troubles, so why does he need his help?
Kazumi Zhongyuan smiled slightly and said, "To put it simply, I have a subordinate, and tomorrow I am going to send him to 'infiltrate' the detective agency."
"Huh?" Fukuzawa Yukichi was really a little confused.
Zhongyuan and Mi laughed, and said: "I say that, Fukuzawa-dono certainly doesn't understand, and I can't say the reason now, Fukuzawa-dono just thinks that someone is going to a detective agency to apply for a job, and just do what you want." .”
Fukuzawa Yukichi continued to be confused.
Turning to look at Edogawa Ranpo.
The famous detective nodded casually while biting the Strawberry Daifuku.
Well, since Ranpo Edogawa has no objections, Fukuzawa Yukichi naturally has no objections.
However, the curiosity in his heart is indispensable.
Fukuzawa Yukichi looked at Sakunosuke Oda and asked, "Oda-kun, you said you were going to apply for a job at a detective agency. What was your previous job?"
He really doesn't know.
Because Nakahara Kazuya only said that he was his subordinate.
Oda Sakunosuke was silent for a moment.
He remembered what Zhongyuan Kazumi had told him before, "When you go there, you just answer whatever the other party asks, and you don't need to lie, and you don't need to lie."
Oda Sakunosuke also didn't understand why Nakahara Kazuya said that, but now he certainly understands that Edogawa Ranpo is sitting outside.
He didn't have the confidence to hide from Edogawa Ranpo.
Therefore, Oda Sakunosuke said honestly: "I used to be a low-level staff at the port MAFIA, and now I am a member of the advisory team outside the port MAFIA."
"Oh?" Fukuzawa Yukichi frowned slightly.
He asked, "Aren't you a direct subordinate of Mr. Hemi?"
Oda Sakunosuke continued to be honest, "Yes."
Fukuzawa Yukichi didn't understand, "Then why did you come to the detective agency?"
Oda Sakunosuke hesitated slightly.
In fact, he has a natural personality, not stupid.
Therefore, Oda Sakunosuke is actually very clear about what happened before.
But, do you want to tell Fukuzawa Yukichi?
After a brief consideration, Oda Sakunosuke decided, say!
After all, Zhongyuan and Mi never talk nonsense. Since they have been told in advance that there is no need to lie, then there is no need to lie.
At the moment, Sakunosuke Oda briefly explained the reason why he transferred from the port MAFIA to the advisory force outside the port MAFIA.
By the way, it was also Zhong Yuan Kazumi's intention that he came here.
Fukuzawa Yukichi is worthy of being Mori Ogai's old partner. Just hearing what Oda Sakunosuke said, you can know what Kazuya Nakahara is worried about.
He just looked at Oda Sakunosuke.
Suddenly he said, "You just said that you haven't killed anyone for many years?"
"Yes." Oda Sakunosuke nodded, it was no secret.
When I was 14 years old, I met Natsume Soseki, decided to become a novelist, and told the story of never killing people again.
Fukuzawa Yukichi was surprised when he heard this, "Natsume? Is it Mr. Natsume Soseki?"
"Uh..." Oda Sakunosuke was stunned.
He was surprised: "Do you know that old gentleman?"
"That's my teacher." Fukuzawa Yukichi said.
He looks more pleasing to Oda Sakunosuke now.
At the same time, Fukuzawa Yukichi also understood why Nakahara Kazuya asked Oda Sakunosuke to apply for a job.
Oh no, it's not job hunting, it's sneaking.
However, Fukuzawa Yukichi believes that Oda Sakunosuke can pass his test of joining the company.
Office area outside.
Haruno Kirako had already helped Edogawa Ranpo get the marbles, she cleaned them and handed them over to Edogawa Ranpo, and asked, "Mr. Ranpo, do you know that person just now?"
"Mr. Kazuya's subordinate!" Ranpo Edogawa picked up a marble to shine the sun, "I can ask him to do any work in the future."
"Ah, is that so?"
Just as he was speaking, the door of the president's office was opened.
Fukuzawa Yukichi came out with Oda Sakunosuke.
He introduced: "Oda Sakunosuke is a member of our detective agency from today on."
Saying that, Fukuzawa Yukichi glanced at Edogawa Ranpo.
Edogawa Ranpo casually agreed: "President, I understand!"
"Mr. Ranpo, please give me your advice." When Fukuzawa Yukichi returned to the president's office, Oda Sakunosuke was serious.
Edogawa looked at Oda Sakunosuke at a random pace, gesturing at the boxes in the corner of the room, "Curry-kun, put those boxes away first, and then go out with me to buy some dim sum."
Oda Sakunosuke put the box on the top of the cabinet casually, and said, "Mr. Ranpo, it's better to eat less snacks outside. Didn't Master Kazuya send you a lot of desserts?"
Edogawa puffed his cheeks in dissatisfaction, and said, "Why is this the same!"
Thick snacks and desserts are not the same!
He yelled: "Mr. Curry, accompany me out to buy thick dim sum!"
The corner of Oda Sakunosuke's mouth twitched, but he still didn't say anything.
In the end, I accompanied Edogawa Ranpo out to buy some dim sum.
The door of the infirmary was opened, Yosano Akiko poked his head out, "Is it okay for Mr. Ranpo to go out like this?"
His famous detective is the best in the world in intelligence, but he is also the best in the world in being self-willed!
Especially these days, Mr. Kazuya is super indulgent to Mr. Ranpo...
This new Oda Sakunosuke won't take Mr. Ranpo out, can't he bring him back?
"Uh... probably not?" Haruno Qi Luozi didn't dare to say anything.
The two women looked at each other.
With the death of André Gide, the gray ghost disappeared, and Yokohama, which had been in chaos, calmed down as quickly as possible.
In this chaos, MAFIA, the port of the world's largest yakuza organization in Yokohama, has obtained the greatest benefits.
The biggest gain is of course the ability license.
With this thing, the port MAFIA officially began to clean up and completely became a legal organization.
Even government departments, or the military and police can no longer just make trouble casually.
In addition, in the chaos, a large number of small organizations were scattered, and the port MAFIA brought the sites of these small organizations into the port MAFIA's sphere of influence at the fastest speed.
Of course, in addition to these, there is the new cadre candidate, Ango Sakaguchi.
The former intelligence agent of the Supernatural Secret Service was directly forced by Mori Ogai to accept all kinds of troubles left by the former port MAFIA cadre Morita.
Originally, Ango Sakaguchi had thought about it in his heart, should he be passive and sabotage?
After all, he wants to go back to the Supernatural Secret Service Division, and he doesn't want to stay in the port MAFIA at all!
The position of the candidate for the port MAFIA cadre is also respectful.
It's a pity that Mori Ogai is a black-hearted leader, and Nakahara Kazuya is not a kind person.
Facing the troubles left by Morita about the powder business, Ango Sakaguchi pushed his glasses, and consciously started working overtime silently.
"Is Sakaguchi-kun so conscious?"
When Nakahara Kazuya and Mori Ogai were having morning tea, they asked curiously.
Mori Ogai smiled and said, "Otherwise, why would I not be willing to let Sakaguchi go? This is a ruthless person who can say that he will not go to get off work until he is off work!"
"Uh... let's do it!" Zhongyuan Kazumi was speechless.
Mori Ogai took a sip of tea and asked casually, "Is Mr. Kazuya here today?"
It stands to reason that Andre Gide died, and the port MAFIA also got the ability license. After the transaction is over, Zhongyuan and Mi should have no interest in running to the port MAFIA, right?
Nakahara Kazuya smiled slightly and said, "No!" He looked at Mori Ogai, and said softly, "Mr. Mori, have you forgotten the content of the original transaction?"
Mori Ogai frowned, his expression became serious, and he asked: "Mr. Kazuya, I agreed at the beginning that I would not stop you from seeing Verlaine, so you don't think you have something to do?"
Kazumi Zhongyuan said with a flat expression: "Mr. Sen, I have made a deal with Verlaine."
"Deal?" Mori Ogai had a bad feeling.
The blond girl eating cake next to her looked up at Kazuya Nakahara.
"Yes." Nakahara Kazumi nodded slightly.
At this moment, the landline on Mori Ogai's desk rang.
Alice jumped up and ran to answer the phone.
A message was given over there.
Verlaine, who had been in the basement, disappeared.
"Mr. Kazuya..." Mori Ogai's expression became serious.
Nakahara Kazuya stared at Mori Ogai, and said softly, "Mr. Mori, you shouldn't be surprised!"
His tone became light, and he said, "You know from the very beginning that I hate Verlaine very much."
Mori Ogai's purple eyes changed for a while before he said, "Yeah, I shouldn't be surprised, but Mr. Kazuya, have you ever thought about Chuya-kun?"
Zhong Yuan and Mi smiled lightly and said, "Zhong is also a good boy."
Mori Ogai frowned even tighter.
Kazumi Zhongyuan stood up and said, "Mr. Mori, I'll take my leave first. By the way, please ask for a few days off in advance. The child needs time to accept it."
Nakahara and Mi left.
Mori Ogai looked at Alice next to him, and said puzzledly: "Alice-chan, Mr. Kazuya seems to be really not afraid of Chuya-kun turning against you? Why?"
"How do I know! Why does Lin Taro always ask me this kind of question? My personality and hobbies are clearly set by you, aren't you?" Alice yelled dissatisfied.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Alice-chan!" Mori Ogai hurriedly apologized, but he looked distressed, "This is really a big problem!"
And, he had to figure it out as soon as possible.
Otherwise...
If Zhongyuan Zhongya can abandon Verlaine today, then it is possible to abandon the port MAFIA in the future!
Mori Ogai thought for a long time, and said, "Speaking of which, Chuya-kun and Dazai-kun seem to have a heavy task today!"
He looked at Alice and asked, "Alice-chan, Mr. Zhongye is Mr. Verlaine's younger brother. He disappeared suddenly. I have to tell Mr. Zhongye!"
The blond girl looked disgusted, and said loudly: "Oh Lin Taro, what a side stage!"
"Hey~Alice-chan~"
Nakahara and Miko were not in the mood to care what Mori Ogai was doing.
He has now run to the abandoned shipyard where Rimbaud died.
Verlaine was standing here, staring at the shallow pit in a daze.
"Click!"
Nakahara Kazumi stepped up consciously and made some noise.
Verlaine raised his head and looked at Zhongyuan Hemi, with a trace of excitement in his eyes that he didn't usually have, and said, "Mr. Hemi, you are here, can we trade now?"
Zhongyuan Hemi stared at Verlaine, he nodded, but shook his head again, and said, "It's a deal, but not here?"
"Not here?" Verlaine frowned slightly.
"Yes," Nakahara Kazuya said, "Come on, follow me to Tokyo."
In order for Verlaine to see Rimbaud's soul, a deal must be made.
However, since Zhongyuan and Mi have no registered permanent residence, they cannot conduct transactions, so they must go through a "middleman".
That is Ichihara Yuko.
Tokyo is really not far from Yokohama.
Not long after, Zhongyuan Kazumi brought Verlaine to the front of the store.
However, at this time, it still looks like an open space.
Zhongyuan and Mi are not worried about this, and the desire in Verlaine's heart probably exceeds that of most human beings.
"Mr. Verlaine really wants to see Mr. Rimbaud?" Nakahara Kazumi asked softly.
"Of course!" Verlaine nodded vigorously.
"Then come with me!"
Verlaine only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and a very strange house appeared in front of him.
He could feel the vast power in the house.
This made Verlaine tremble slightly.
Who is it that lives here?
Zhongyuan Hemi led the way into the courtyard and said, "Mr. Verlaine, please come with me!"
"Ah, okay." Verlaine followed Zhongyuan and Mi inside in a little confusion.
The door was opened, and Quan Luduo appeared at the door.
The two little girls held hands and shouted happily, "Master Hemi is back!"
"Master Kazuya is back!"
"I'm back, Xiaoquan, Xiaoduo..." Zhongyuan Hemi smiled softly.
"Come quickly! The master is already waiting for you..."
"Master is already waiting for you... Hurry up!"
Two little girls pulled people inside.
Zhong Yuan He Mi followed Quan Lu Duo Lu and said casually, "Mr. Verlaine, please follow me!"
Verlaine hurried to follow.
Go through the corridor and come to the big room.
Ichihara Yuko was already leaning on the beauty couch and waiting.
With slender fingers pinching the tobacco rod, wisps of incense wafted in the room.
Still wearing the strange black robe, part of the hair was pulled up high and fixed with hairpins. "Hemi, you're here."
"Miss Yuko." Nakahara Kazumi knelt down on one knee and saluted.
Ichihara Yuko said with a serious expression, "Kazuya, are you really going to do this?"
"Didn't you already know?" Zhongyuan Kazumi smiled lightly.
Ichihara Yuko was silent.
Verlaine walked over slowly, with a puzzled expression on his face, and asked, "Mr. Hemi, this is..."
Kazuya Nakahara stood up and introduced him: "This is Yuko Ichihara, a witch from the dimension, and this is also the owner of this shop." He explained clearly, and said: "The deal between me and you is complete in this world. If it doesn’t work, it can only be done here.”
Verlaine did not understand.
Ichihara Yuko said: "The reason is very simple, you can't pay the price of the transaction, so Kazuya must pay half of it for you."
Verlaine was taken aback, and he lost his voice: "I can't pay the price? Impossible, I'm a man-made god..."
Moreover, didn't Nakahara and Mi already demanded his soul as a price?
"It's because it's an artificial god!" Yuko Ichihara pouted.
She was very dissatisfied with her adopted son's insistence on making a deal with Verlaine.
Zhong Yuan and Mi Xiao said helplessly, "Miss Yuko, you don't need to mention these things..."
Ichihara Yuko snorted softly and said, "How can I not mention it?"
If it was someone else, Yuko Ichihara would definitely say a word too much, but Kazuya is not someone else.
She looked at Verlaine and said with a serious expression: "Mr. Verlaine, you have to understand that you are just a man-made god..." Yuko Ichihara said clearly, "Kazumi is a good boy, so he paid the price for you."
Verlaine was silent and surprised.
He wondered if the woman named Ichihara Yuko in front of him was lying?
But, there is no reason!
He has already promised Zhongyuan and Mi that he is willing to trade, so there is no need to play such tricks, right?
unless……
What Yuko Ichihara said is true!
Zhongyuan Hemi said helplessly, "Mr. Verlaine, you don't have to think too much, the transaction is always what you like." He stared at the other party and said, "Many times, transactions that seem unequal are nothing more than what each gets. Just need it."
Saying that, Nakahara Kazumi smiled lightly, and lightly brushed his fingers across his temples.
A lock of long silver-gray hair was cut off.
Nakahara Kazuya directly handed this bundle of hair to Ichihara Yuko, a red light flashed in his gray-blue eyes, and he said softly: "Miss Yuko, please make a deal!"
Both Nakahara and Ya have said that, and they have already cut off their hair, and Ichihara Yuko can't say anything even if he has an opinion.
She took a deep breath, looked up at Verlaine, and asked, "Mr. Paul Verlaine, are you willing to use your soul as a price in exchange for a reunion with Arthur Rimbaud's soul?"
In fact, Verlaine still has a lot to ask if he still understands, but, listening to Yuko Ichihara's words, his longing to see Rimbaud overwhelms everything.
He nodded vigorously and said, "I do."
As soon as he finished speaking, Verlaine saw a flower beside him, and a familiar tall man appeared in front of him.
Thick windbreaker, long smoky gray hair, cold and melancholy face...
"Artier..." Verlaine called out in a murmur.
With trembling hands slightly, he stroked the other's cheek.
The hands were cold, but Verlaine suddenly settled down.
Ah, this is Attil... this is Attil...
Rimbaud showed a melancholy smile, opened his mouth, and called silently.
Paul...
Beside, Nakahara Kazuya took out a handful of Yaken Toshiro.
Knife unsheathed.
"Quick! Faster!"
Zhong Yuanzhong also stepped on the gas pedal desperately.
Dazai Osamu stretched out his hand and grabbed the handlebar of the car, trying to divert Chuya Nakahara's attention, and said, "Chuya, don't be so anxious... Maybe my brother didn't go to Tokyo!"
"Absolutely!" Zhongyuan Zhong also looked ugly, holding the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and gritted his teeth: "Brother is definitely taking brother to find Miss Yuko!"
"Huh?" Osamu Dazai's mouth twitched, "Are you that sure? Your elder brother hates Verlaine very much!"
"Of course I'm sure!" Zhong Yuanzhong also looked gloomy: "I have known for a long time that my brother hates me, but I also sincerely regard my brother as my own brother, so..."
"So what?" Osamu Dazai felt a little confused about why Nakahara was also excited.
Zhong Yuanzhong didn't explain any more, but just stepped on the accelerator again.
It also made Osamu Dazai completely shut up.
The speed is too fast!
Osamu Dazai is not afraid of death, but it feels a bit pity to die like this just after being with the dwarf.
Moreover, dying in a car accident must be extremely painful!
He doesn't want it!
Fortunately, Nakahara Chuya's driving skills are good enough.
When he stopped at the destination, Osamu Dazai heaved a sigh of relief, feeling grateful for the first time.
It's okay, I'm still alive!
Zhongyuan didn't care what happened to Osamu Dazai, he didn't die anyway.
He jumped out of the car and rushed to Ichihara Yuko's store.
Zhong Yuanzhong didn't enter the store either, instead he went directly to the backyard.
Just passing by, I saw Zhongyuan and Mi walking out.
"Brother!" Zhong Yuan Zhong also rushed over, "Where's my brother?"
Zhongyuan Kazumi didn't say that Zhongyuan Zhongye was rude, but just said: "The transaction is completed."
"Has the transaction been completed?" Zhong Yuanzhong was also a little panicked, but not too surprised.
Zhongyuan Hemi looked at Zhongyuan Zhongye, pursed his lips, and said, "Yes, Zhongye...the deal is completed..."
"Ah, I know..." Zhong Yuan murmured, "So, I'm late again, right?"
Nakahara Kazuya lowered his eyes and did not speak.
Zhong Yuan also asked: "Brother, is he satisfied with the content of the transaction?"
Zhongyuan Kazumi tilted his head, and motioned him to look at Verlaine who was lying on the ground, always frowning. Although Verlaine, who looked gloomy, was not breathing now, it could be seen that he left with a smile on his face.
Zhongyuan Zhong was also silent, he naturally knew that Verlaine wanted to die for a long time...
It's just because I'm worried about myself that I keep living.
Zhong Yuan Zhong also said in a hoarse voice: "He...has he seen Uncle?"
The uncle is naturally Lan Tang.
Nakahara Kazumi nodded slightly, and said, "Yes...they are both very happy..."
Zhong Yuanzhong also lowered his head slightly.
Nakahara Kazuya reached out and touched Nakahara Chuya's head, then looked up at Dazai Osamu.
Osamu Dazai walked over silently, and patted Chuya Nakahara on the shoulder.
Nakahara and Mi pursed their lips, allowing Dazai Osamu to comfort Nakahara Chuya.
He walked straight out of the store.
Osamu Dazai watched Nakahara and Mi go away.
Frowning slightly.
Where did Mr. Kazuya's temple hair go?
Nakahara Chuya and Dazai did not stay long.
He knows very well that Miss Yuko's shop is not in the dimension and time, and it is not good for them to stay for a long time.
Zhong Yuanzhong also placed Verlaine in the back row of the car, bowed and saluted, and left with Osamu Dazai.
Ichihara Yuko looked down at the hair in her hand.
Recalling the conversation she had just had with Kazuya Nakahara.
Ichihara Yuko held the bundle of hair, looked at Kazuya with a somewhat inexplicable expression, and asked softly: "Heya, is it worth it?"
Zhongyuan Kazumi just looked at her, and said with a weird expression: "What do you think? Miss Yuko?"
I had no choice from the very beginning!
Ichihara Yuko sighed deeply again.
He Mi, He Mi, you have to understand that I am a dead person!
No matter what kind of life it is, it cannot be resurrected from death.
and so……
So, don't do what you shouldn't do!
Zhong Yuanhe walked casually.
My mind was in turmoil.
He naturally knew that Miss Yuko was a dead person, and she survived only because of Master Reed's desire, which escaped from all dimensions and time.
But... does this really count as survival?
Zhongyuan Kazumi's eyes became darker and darker.
All the people who passed by Zhongyuan and Mi, even if they couldn't see Zhongyuan and Mi, all unconsciously walked around from a distance.
At this moment, Zhongyuan Hemi's cell phone rang suddenly.
He froze for a moment, then looked down at the phone.
Nakahara and Misho set the voices on everyone's mobile phones, and this voice——is Mr. Ranpo's!
Thinking of Edogawa Ranpo, Nakahara and Ya's emotions of going down to the end subconsciously eased.
Connect to the phone.
"Moshi Moshi, Mr. Ranpo?...Oda Saku-kun passed the entrance examination once?...Hahaha, Oda Saku-kun is indeed a bit...ahem, anyway, thank you for your hard work...well, well, twenty boxes of lotus flowers Crisp!"
After chatting for a while and hanging up the phone, Zhongyuan and Mi couldn't help laughing.
Although Sakunosuke Oda was ordered to "infiltrate" the armed detective agency, the due assessment for joining the agency is also indispensable.
The Armed Detective Agency now has a total of three official clerks.
Fukuzawa Yukichi, Yosano Akiko, and Edogawa Ranpo.
Fukuzawa Yukichi was not suitable, and Yosano Akiko didn't go out easily, and in the end Edogawa Ranpo was in charge of evaluating Oda Sakunosuke.
However, Oda Sakunosuke is an intuitionist himself, and he is natural. After becoming the envoy of Nakahara Kazuya, his intuition became stronger.
Therefore, Edogawa Ranpo tried several times in a row to assess, but the results were...
Well, I can't say it didn't succeed, it can only be said that Edogawa was speechless.
The worst thing is that Oda Sakunosuke passed the assessment.
You can imagine how crazy Edogawa Ranpo was!
No wonder he called directly to "complain"!
After laughing for a while, Nakahara and Mijo shook their heads with a smile.
Mr. Ranpo is so cute!
Bring some more desserts to the Armed Detective Agency today!
No, no.
Mr. Ranpo seems to be still in the punishment period, so remember to bring some more later!
Kazuya Nakahara rushed to the Armed Detective Agency, and Ranpo Edogawa was eating dim sum at his desk.
Seeing Zhongyuan Hemi approaching, he unconsciously bulged his cheeks, and his emerald green eyes fell on Zhongyuan Hemi's temples.
Nakahara Kazumi smiled lightly and said, "Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Ranpo."
"Accounting."
"No problem." Zhongyuan and Mi are super easy to talk to.
Only then did Edogawa Ranpo become happy, and murmured to Nakahara Kazumi that there were only one-third of the sweets today, so little, the president is so cruel, and other trivial thoughts.
Zhongyuan Kazumi could only comfort him with a smile: "Be patient, it will be over soon!" He thought for a while, and came up with an idea, "Otherwise, I will bring some sweet Chinese dishes to Mr. Ranpo later?"
"Huh?" Edogawa Ranpo's eyes lit up, "Are there any sweet Chinese dishes?"
"Of course there are." Zhong Yuan and Mi nodded.
"Then bring a few more." Edogawa Ranpo decided decisively.
"No problem." Zhongyuan Kazumi agreed very simply.
Kazuya Nakahara was making a name for himself as a detective when he saw Sakunosuke Oda coming out of the president's office with a document.
"Master Kazuya." Oda Sakunosuke called out.
"Oda Sukun, do you have a job?" Nakahara Kazuya raised his eyebrows.
"Yes," Oda Sakunosuke handed the document to Edogawa Ranpo, and said, "The president said, let Mr. Ranpo go as soon as possible, this case has a big impact."
Zhong Yuan and Mi took a look, "Serial bombings?"
This is a typical social case, no wonder Fukuzawa Yukichi said so.
Edogawa Ranpo also quickly picked up his detective hat, ready to go out.
Edogawa walked out in random steps, usually accompanied by Fukuzawa Yukichi.
But this time, Oda Sakunosuke accompanied him.
Seeing Oda Sakunosuke accompany Edogawa to leave, Nakahara Kazuya couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
Do you trust Oda Saku-kun that much?
"Rather than believing in Oda Saku-kun, it would be better to say I believe in Kazuya-san!" It was Yosano Akiko who spoke.
Nakahara Kazumi looked back at her, and said in surprise, "Do you have anything to say to Miss Xie Ye?"
"Nothing, just wanted to say, good job." Yosano Akiko giggled and turned back to the infirmary.
Zhong Yuan and Mi were stunned for a moment before they came to their senses, dumbfounded.
Sure enough, Yosano Akiko really hates Mori Ogai!
However, this is not surprising.
Who made Mori Ogai really black-hearted!
Thinking of Zhongyuan Zhongya arriving at the last moment today, Zhongyuan Kazuya couldn't help shaking his head secretly.
It seems that we still can't give Mr. Mori too much face!
Otherwise, this guy will definitely think about something.
at night.
Both Dazai Nakahara and Sakunosuke Oda came back from get off work.
Zhongyuan Zhong also saw Zhongyuan Kazumi, and took the initiative to say: "Brother, I'm sorry for losing my temper before." Zhongyuan Hemi shook his head and said, "It's okay, I know what Mr. Verlaine means to Zhongye!"
Before his return, Verlaine was the only one of his kind in the Central Plains, and he had a relationship with Lan Tang, so it was inevitable that the Central Plains would be very concerned about Verlaine.
Nakahara Chuya sighed, and he looked at Nakahara Kazuya's temples.
At the temples, broken hair is flying.
Zhong Yuanzhong also said in a low voice: "I know, brother is doing it for me."
Otherwise, Zhong Yuan and Mi could ignore Verlaine to the end.
Now, although the method seems terrible, it gave Verlaine the best ending.
There was a hint of a smile in Zhongyuan Hemi's gray-blue eyes, and he knew that his lovely brother could understand his thoughts.
Of course, it has something to do with Dazai Osamu.
Osamu Dazai watched Chuya Nakahara communicate with Kazuya Nakahara from a distance, with a smile on his face.
He was more interested in asking Oda Sakunosuke about his experience today.
Hearing Oda Sakunosuke talk about today's admission assessment, he couldn't help laughing, "Oda Sakunosuke, you are as interesting as ever."
"Really?" Oda Sakunosuke disagreed.
Osamu Dazai asked again: "Oda Tsukuru, how do you feel at the detective agency?"
"Very good." Oda Sakunosuke said with a serious expression: "The president and Mr. Ranpo are both very good." He recalled the experience of going out to work today, and said with admiration: "Or, Mr. Ranpo is better than I imagined. Even more powerful, Dazai, do you believe it? Mr. Ranpo saw the scene of the crime, and he knew everything in just one minute, including who the criminal was, how the other party committed the crime, and what was the motive for committing the crime. It's all clear."
"So powerful?" It was Nakahara Chuya who happened to walk over to speak.
Oda Sakunosuke nodded vigorously, and said, "Mr. Ranpo is that powerful!"
The author has something to say: the deal between He Mi and Verlaine was really unequal, Verlaine couldn't pay enough, so He Mi paid the other half for him.
Of course, don't think that He Mi is at a disadvantage, he also has his own purpose.
As the text says, each takes what he needs.
