After becoming a chaotic daughter

Yokohama is a city that neither magicians nor cursers are willing to set foot in.

If you want to ask specific reasons, the answers given must be varied.The mafia strictly guarding the underground world is very troublesome, the control of the concession area is very troublesome, there are no spells to care about, and too many neurotic criminals can easily cause trouble for themselves... In short, "it is better to go to other places if you have the energy to go to Yokohama" , Coming here will only be thankless. Over time, after the end of the war 12 years ago, fewer and fewer magicians will come here.

But Wujo Satoru knew that the real reason was not these superficial "troubles".

He realized it when he first came to Yokohama.At the moment of stepping into the boundary of Yokohama, all existences that store "mantra power" will be oppressed by some invisible force. Whether it is a magician or a mantra spirit, as long as there is mantra power in the body, this invisible force cannot be avoided. A subtle discomfort that is everywhere.

Like a sudden thinning of the air, a sudden increase in the temperature, and a sudden dimming of the light, these changes are silent and without warning, making it difficult to detect but exist.

Ordinary magicians can't clearly perceive this point, and probably only super-level magicians, or special magicians whose five senses are more sensitive than ordinary people, can perceive this.

But just like small animals in the natural world, weak creatures will have a certain sense of danger engraved in their genes. Even if the mind fails to detect it, the body will automatically avoid it subconsciously.Therefore, Yokohama has become a "vacuum zone" where there are few magicians, and all magicians "turn a blind eye" to this place.

Using this "blind spot" defaulted by the sorcerers, Gojo Satoru, Xia Youjie and Iirui Glass hid Amauchi Riko and her caretaker Kuroi Misato here after creating the illusion of Amauchi Riko's death.

Yokohama is a city outside the law. As long as you have money, you can do almost anything. For Wujo Satoru, the most important thing he lacks is money, so after spending 20 US dollars, he gave the two very easily. They got a flawless new identity and let them start a new life in Yokohama.

At the same time, the Mafia, the Concession, and the Secret Service, the city is being monitored by three parties at the same time, and it is difficult for even high-level magicians to reach out here.

However, a week ago, Riko's whereabouts were revealed.

The whistleblower is the heir of the Zenyuan family. For some reason, he has traveled to Yokohama several times, and met Riko Tennai by chance half a month ago. I was bumped into by him.

Chanyuan Naoya thought Riko Tenuchi looked familiar at first, but he remembered after returning to the Zenyuan home that Tenuchi Riko was the astral body that "died" a few years ago. In the hands of high-level art circles.

The higher-ups assigned Xia Youjie to "recover the astroplasma".

Obviously it was a deliberate designation. After all, the people who reported the "death of the astral body" back then were Wujo Wu and Xia Youjie. Perhaps they wanted to use this to coerce Xia Youjie into "showing loyalty" to the high-level, implying that as long as he brought back Riko Tennei, the The higher-ups will let go of the past.

When the task was assigned, Gojo Satoru was on a business trip in the deep mountains and forests of Hokkaido, and there was no signal, so Xia Youjie went to Yokohama alone.

Five days ago, Xia Youjie set off.

Four days ago, Amanouchi Riko was found in Hodogaya, Yokohama.

Three days ago, Xia Youjie arrived at Riko's residence.

The information was broken three nights ago, and the high-level sent Mingming to monitor all Xia Youjie's actions, but the surveillance crow was killed by a curse three nights ago. People lost their traces, and all four members of Tiannei Lizi's neighbor's family died. Xia Youjie's spell power was found to be filthy at the scene.

Xia Youjie suspected that he took away the astral body and defected. At the same time, the high-level officials discovered a village where Xia Youjie had been on mission a few years ago. More than a hundred villagers in the village died one after another in the past few years, and finally "destroyed the village". This matter is also suspected to be related to Xia Youjie.

Gojo Satoru knew about that village. After Xia Youjie finished that mission, he brought back two little girls, who seemed to be called Nanako and Mimiko, but the two children were also missing.

Obviously this was a premeditated "defection".

Gojo Satoru saw the message that Glass had sent him after finishing the mission, and first rushed to suppress those annoying old things in the high-level, and then came to Yokohama to find someone.

There are more than 300 million people in Yokohama. If you want to find three people who are willing and capable of hiding, it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. Where to start.

So he found Nanako.

There was no particular reason, but purely out of intuition, he felt that Xia Youjie might come back to see Nanako.

Neither he nor Xia Youjie actually had any "acquaintances" in Yokohama, but if Xia Youjie met someone they knew in Yokohama, Nanako was probably a good choice.He also didn't understand why he had such an idea, maybe it was because this child looked dull, like a not-so-intelligent doll, and he was a good confidant, wandering on the edge of these annoying incidents, but But there is a faint connection with them, even if she says something to her, she can't understand it at all, and it won't have any relationship.

Gojo Satoru remembered what 99 Yuki had said to them a few years ago:

[Although I failed to assimilate with the astral body, but I don't know why, the state of Tianyuan is very stable now.You don't have to worry about that. 】

Since there was nothing wrong with Tianyuan even if there was no astral body, why did the higher-ups ask Xia Youjie to bring Lizi back?

He felt that he should know the reason, but he was hazy, as if he didn't know, just like he didn't know what happened in the past few years when the three of them got together less often and performed their tasks separately That's why Xia Youjie cursed the whole village.

Moreover, Xia Youjie once cast a curse, was it really only people from that village?

But no matter what, now it seems that his idea is really just an illusion. Although Nanako completely ignored him and got on the bus with another boy, but looking at it this way, she should have never met Xia Youjie. of.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked questions like "Who is Jie?" and "Who are you?"

He followed Nanako and boarded the bus together, and the bus full of students wobbled towards the next stop.

*******

Nanako doesn't want to take the bus anymore.

From Qingxue to Detective Agency, there are only six stops in total, but with the addition of several stations in front of Qingxue, students from four schools along the way crowded the bus together.In three junior high schools and one high school, tall and short students filled the carriages. Not only were there no seats to sit in, but even standing space was cramped.

She is still very short among middle school students, only a little over 1.4 meters. It is very hard to reach out and grab the pull ring hanging above her head. The surrounding passengers are all taller than her. Standing in the carriage seems to be surrounded by walls in all directions. It was blocked, and among the things she could see in her vision, she felt that the most comfortable thing she could pull was probably Gogol's three-strand braid hanging down the back of his head.

However, in order to prevent Gogol from going bald at a young age, Nanako gave up this option and reached out to reach Gogol's arm, and then grabbed Gojo Satoru's clothes beside him.

She suddenly felt more secure.

The bus finally stopped at the station downstairs of the detective agency.Squeezing out from the crowd, Gogol jumped out of the car with light movements, turned around and stretched out his hand again, and grabbed a small hand protruding from the crowd, like pulling a carrot, pulling it out was a bit dazed Confused Nanako.Following behind Nanako, Gojo Satoru conveniently carried her to the ground when he got out of the car.

Nanako felt like a squashed sponge. After being squeezed in the car for a long time, her head was dizzy. She stood beside the station sign. After a while, she came back to her senses. For the school uniform, straighten the crooked bow on the chest.

Unfolding his crumpled cloak and shaking, Gogol wrinkled his face exaggeratedly, lowered his head and asked Nanako, "Are you going to come back by bus in the future?"

Grabbing the hem of the clothes, she tried her best to straighten the top. When Nanako heard his question, she immediately shook her little head vigorously: "...don't sit down anymore."

She felt that she could still work hard to walk back.

Standing beside her, Gojo Satoru looked up at the red brick building in front of him, then lowered his head and asked Nanako, "Your father—that Mr. Detective should be in the detective agency at this time, right?"

Nanako hung her head, scratched her hair, and answered him slowly: "I don't know...sometimes I'm not here."

"...Well, that doesn't matter, just go up and have a look and you'll find out." Wujo Wu hooked the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, revealing a pair of blue eyes looking at the window on the fourth floor above. To the plain and ordinary sight.

Probably he was lucky, Ranpo didn't go out to work today, nor did he go to the park to play. When Nanako opened the door of the detective agency, Ranpo was watching Dazai with great interest when the woman who came to the door grabbed his neck and cried, "You heartless Han", biting the potato chips in his hand.

Kunikida at the side brought tissues for the weeping lady, and the whole pack of tissues was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like the HP of Dazai who was about to expire.

Seeing that Nanako came back, he put down the potato chips in a random step, and immediately ordered Kunikida to carry Dazai who had started to foam at the mouth into the infirmary, and the woman who was as delicate as a willow followed closely, wiping her tears. One hand was still pinching Dazai's neck, making one very doubtful how such a weak woman could have such strength to pinch Dazai unconscious.

Perhaps it was the trauma of love that gave her the strength to never let go.

As the side door of the office area was closed, the woman's crying and complaining voice was also closed behind the door, and the office area immediately fell silent.

Gojo Satoru who witnessed the whole process: "..."

He had never seen this scene before.

"Huh?" As if he had just noticed Wujo Enlightenment just now, he waved his hands in disorder to greet him, "Isn't this who! What? Is there something that can't be solved and you want to ask the detective agency for help?"

Gojo Satoru:?

Where does "again" come from?

The last time he came to Yokohama... Yes, he remembered, it was to deal with a special magic spirit, and he did come to the detective agency to ask for information.The last time... Ah, yes, yes, yes, it was the time when I came to the police station in Yokohama to take notes. The detective agency uprooted the Panxing sect and sent it to the police station.

Although it didn't seem like I came to ask the detective agency for help both times, it seemed that I was supported by them in some subtle places both times.

...and he spent hundreds of millions before leaving Yokohama twice.

"Let's forget about the previous few times." He dragged an office chair casually, and Gojo Wufan sat on the chair, with his arms folded casually hanging on the back of the chair, "But this time I really came to see you commissioned."

"Wait~~~~!" Luanbu raised his left hand and blocked it between the two of them. It was a gesture representing stop. He opened a drawer, took out a list from the drawer, and took Picking up the fountain pen with the cap on the table that had gone somewhere, Shua Shua Shua added a few strokes to the list, then put down his left hand, and raised the list with his right hand to show Gojo Satoru.

"Let me explain in advance that the entrustment fee is this price." Ranbu said to him.

Although the six eyes were restricted, Gojo Satoru could clearly see the text above two meters away with good basic vision.It is a reference quotation for commission fees, ranging from daily quests to dealing with criminal gangs, and it is a densely packed form.

On the far right side of the table, on the side of the [Reference Price] column, draw a curly bracket from the beginning to the end with a black pen, and spend all the reference prices in it, and then the sharp corners of the brackets are big A handwritten 【×5】.

After confirming that Gojo Satoru had read the price list clearly, he threw the list on the table in a random manner, ate potato chips and said, "Okay, now you can think about how you want to commission a detective."

Gojo Satoru took out a black card and threw it on Ranpo's desk.

"Within one day, if you find Jie's whereabouts, I can pay you one billion as commission fee."

As long as he can find someone as quickly as possible by spending money, then he doesn't mind doing it.

"One day?" Luanbu leaned back in the office chair, squinted his eyes and laughed, "Don't judge me as a famous detective by the efficiency of those third-rate detectives—it won't take that long, tomorrow morning, you can see me here he."

After verbally accepting the commission, Gojo Satoru left the detective agency.

Nanako felt as if she had heard about a big deal. She put down her schoolbag and wanted to run to the clerk's office to find Ms. Haruno, but just as she opened the side door, she saw a tall figure standing in the side door, and she almost hit her head up.

One didn't stand firmly, and she almost fell on the tiled floor, but the person inside the door reached out to hold her head, and stabbed her firmly in place, as if she was about to be poked into the ground thumbtacks.

Nanako, who was so pressed that she couldn't lift her head: ... felt a little pain in her little head.

"It's really dangerous, almost being discovered by Enlightenment." A man's chuckle came from above his head.

The man took his hand away from Nanako's head, and Nanako suddenly felt a lot lighter in her mind.

She looked up and saw standing in front of her was a young man in black with bangs hanging down his forehead. His appearance was vaguely familiar.With the experience of the "pillar" just now, Nanako flicked through her vague memory, and quickly remembered something.

Lowering her head, Nanako raised her short legs.

Clap, stepped on the man's foot.

After stepping on it, she bypassed the man and walked slowly into the clerk's office.

Xia Youjie with half a shoe print on the shoe: "..."
