The white moonlight is my vest

"What are you doing—it's up to a detective in the end."

Edogawa adjusted his glasses at random steps, and snorted dissatisfiedly.The famous detective has such a strange magical power. With his arrival, the villagers who were still singing spontaneously made way for him. Edogawa Ranpo quickly arrived at the center of the sacrificial venue.

Behind him, the members of the Armed Detective Agency are naturally indispensable.The venue is not big, it simply cannot accommodate so many people, and the space becomes tense visibly with the naked eye.

"You can't use him as a sacrifice anymore," Edogawa complained dissatisfied with the reflection of the blazing fire in the emerald green eyes, "Even if it is an enemy, a detective can't stand it." gone."

The priest's pupils shrank slightly.

He raised his voice subconsciously: "What nonsense are you talking about! Irrelevant personnel should not interfere with the sacrifice—"

Edogawa walked wildly with his arms akimbo, looked at the priest with interest for a while, and suddenly laughed out loud: "What, so you don't know at all."

His eyes turned around the venue, and he accurately caught Zenyuan Shangya and Wujo Wu standing outside the crowd.Chanyuan Shang was not flustered either, and even nodded slightly to Edogawa Ranpo, and even gave a wink—in any case, among the group of people in the Armed Detective Agency, Zenyuan Shangya and Edogawa Ranpo are quite familiar .

Edogawa Ranbu didn't pay attention to Chanyuan Shangya.

Zenyuan Shang also spread his hands helplessly, and sighed to Wujo Wu: "It seems that Mr. Detective has completely forgotten about his poor assistant."

Gojo Satoru raised his eyebrows: "If that's the case, why don't you jump out?"

"It's not that far, the famous detective is just a little dissatisfied with me," Chanyuan Shang also shrugged, "After all, few people would like someone as greedy as me, right?"

It is not a secret that Chanin Shoya and Shenru Che formed an alliance, and Edogawa Ranpo can tell at a glance that Zenin Shoya does not intend to give up Tsushima Fusuki, and is planning to unite the three parties to deal with Florian. .

The detective saw his intentions and sulked to himself.After all, the Zen master didn't even say hello.

The famous detective in the venue continued to reason.He motioned to the two villagers carrying the scarecrow to put it down, and stared at the mask on the villagers' faces for a while.

He squatted down, first poked the straw man, pulled out a few straws and rubbed them, and after confirming that they were just ordinary straws, he noticed a little white in the middle of a pile of withered yellow, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"It's really strange, it doesn't make sense, why can this straw man replace him? Could it be because of the name?" Edogawa Ranpo seemed to be talking to himself, "But it's just a name...so that's it , does the name have a special power in this era?"

No one could understand what Edogawa Ranpo was saying at this time, the priest turned around and wanted the villagers to take Edogawa Ranpo away.But his yelling voice was not so powerful, it was even trembling faintly, making it easy to hear his guilty conscience and panic.

The villagers looked at the priest suspiciously.

In their hearts, sacrifices are supreme - because those who can bless them with good weather naturally cannot tolerate anyone's tampering.

"It's the first time I've heard of such a sacrifice method, sacrificing a part of his body every year. But how much can a person have? When will you sacrifice him? Maybe more than ten years, oh no, how many He will be plundered by you in [-] years - what will you do then? Push out another person? But where are you going to find someone like him?"

Edogawa Ranpo's tone was sarcastically tinged with sarcasm, and even the members of the Armed Detective Agency who lived with him day and night rarely saw this side of him: "Even if you are lucky and have another favorite, you still To sacrifice him to the gods, strip off his family affection in the first year, strip off his friendship in the second year, the third year, and the fourth year... until all his feelings are stripped off, the current him can still be called Is it human?"

As soon as Edogawa Ranpo said these words, the monk of the Chanyuan also sighed softly: "...So that's the case, then everything will have an answer."

In the cave, facing Shang Ye's suggestion, Shen Lu Che, who is no longer a god, said: "I don't think I have friends."

——Because he doesn't understand what a friend is, and there is no such thing as friendship.But he wasn't born with nothing, he was just taken away, and no one ever gave it back.

Still in the cave, the monk of the Zen Academy also asked Shenluche, who was not yet a god, who he had met before he was locked in. Shenluche's reaction was very flat: "I have, but I can't remember."

——He actually has a family, but to him, the family is no longer important.Because he was deprived of family affection.

Zenyuan Shangye's complexion is not very good-looking.Fu Heisher knew the reason, no matter how mischievous and mischievous the Chanyuan Shang Ye usually seemed, and even had a taste of "doing all kinds of evil" in it, he could actually be called a good person.

Otherwise, the Chanyuan would not resolutely tear apart the faces of those elders because of the ugliness of the family.

Thinking of this, Fu Heisher's emotions towards Shang Ye of the Chanyuan could not help but become quite complicated.

Knowing that all Shang Ye's calculations in the Chanyuan were to win the game, and he won the game only to revive Fu Heisher - Fu Heisher actually didn't know what to say, so he kept silent for a long time.

He didn't know what attitude he should use to deal with Chanyuan Shangya.

Edogawa Ranpo's reasoning is not over yet.

"Is there something hidden in this scarecrow? Probably a note - I won't read what it says, or why would I pull the straw? I talked to the man, don't look at me like that, it's not very easy to find him." Is it easy?" Edogawa Ranpo frowned, with an expression of "why can't you figure out such a simple thing", "Only a fool can't find it?"

In order to ensure authenticity, the "Shenlu Che" who is not a player in the dungeon is also played by Igarashi Kaede himself.Last night, after Shangya and Gojo Satoru left the Zen Academy, Ranpo Edogawa led the armed detective agency to find the location of "Shen Lu Che".

If it was said that Florian and the others had won the SSR, and Chanyuan Shang had also drawn the R, then everyone in the Armed Detective Agency was an SR with no merit or fault.Their identities this time were the family members of the village head. After hearing the news that the village head hadn't returned, Edogawa Ranpo just went with the flow... and found "Shen Lu Che".

Emiya Kiritsugu, who could only continue to wait for the development of the game's plot because he could not find the "Divine Law Che" in this world: "..."

To be fair, isn't this a bit outrageous?

Emiya Kiritsugu never underestimated the enemy, but in front of Zenyuan Shangya and Shenryu Che, he undoubtedly moved his allies to the back subconsciously, and would relax a little vigilance-this is human nature.But it's all because he has never seen Ranpo Edogawa's reasoning with his own eyes. He didn't expect Ranpo Edogawa to tear apart the truth so arbitrarily, so that the conspiracy hidden behind the scenes has nowhere to hide.

Wait, Emiya Kiritsugu realized something.

The reason why the Armed Detective Agency is involved in the game is because they have an inseparable relationship with the first player...

But Emiya Kiritsugu searched all the people behind Edogawa Ranpo, but he didn't find the existence of Tsushima Fusuki.He couldn't sit still anymore and stood up. Irisviel was taken aback by his sudden action, and quickly asked him what was wrong in a low voice.

Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes were a little unclear, and his tone was not very good: "...I suspect that someone has already found a way to win."

Since Ranpo Edogawa is so smart and can see so many things they can't see, it shouldn't be a problem to find a way to win the game, right?And now Tsushima Fusuke, who is a player, is not with the members of the Armed Detective Agency... Maybe he went alone, leaving the members of the Armed Detective Agency to stay behind.

Thinking of this, Emiya Kiritsugu gave Florian a complicated look.

Florian was wandering, as if everything had nothing to do with him.Not to mention Gilgamesh who was standing on the stone, and happily took a glass of red wine to appreciate Edogawa Ranpo's reasoning...

No, can they really win the game if this continues?

Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly became suspicious.

"So where is Shenlu Che now?"

The members of the Armed Detective Agency have already appeared, but Tsushima Fuki is not there.Chanyuan Shang also looked back and forth, and said to Gojo Satoru in a low voice: "Tsushima Onuki is not here, will he reach some tacit agreement with Edogawa Ranpo?"

The appearance of the armed detective agency also confirmed their inference yesterday from the side.Then the real Shenru Che and Yuzhang Yuren should be not far from here, Gojo Satoru thought of this, and casually looked around the venue.

……Wait a moment.

"Six Eyes" seemed to find something different.

Because in the dungeon, everything is energy information, which is really uncomfortable for Gojo Satoru, and it is normal to miss some - he looked at the two masks who were carrying the scarecrow just now The villagers had smiles on their faces.

"What." Gojo Satoru's tone was extremely relaxed, "Isn't this already here?"

Suddenly there was a sound of breathing in the center of the venue.

The two villagers who were originally in charge of carrying the scarecrow took off their hoods one after another.Faced with various gazes, Shenru Che and Knotabagi Yuhito took off their masks.Shenlu Che's blond hair scattered in the wind, and his sapphire-like eyes scanned the surrounding people.

The priest knelt on the ground subconsciously.

He stuttered even when he spoke, and he was incoherent: "...Che? You, no, how could you...?"

Things have developed to this point, it is quite obvious that the priest is the accomplice of the village chief.The priest looked around, trying to find the village head's help, but it was a pity that those who could help him had already been buried in the soil.

Shenlu Che's blond hair and blue eyes are unusual in this era, and immediately aroused the memories of other villagers.

"Didn't he die a long time ago?"

"Isn't that the first sacrifice? How come you're still alive?"

"No, no, the village chief clearly told us that as long as the first person is sacrificed alive, we will only offer a straw man with his name on it in the future to remind God that he has accepted our sacrifice...so he Why are you alive?"

"Wait, where's the village chief?"

Shenlu Che glanced at the priest, his voice was unexpectedly calm, without any emotion.

"Don't call me by my name."

The good show here has reached its climax, and the other side naturally cannot be left behind.

cave.

"Shenlu Che" huddled in a corner heard footsteps, opened his eyes, and saw the kite-haired youth in front of him.The kite-haired youth was coughing continuously, and the coughing sound was quite abrupt in the cave.
