After becoming a chaotic daughter

Nanako claimed her idiot father back at the police station.

The completely unreliable Luanpo left her and Gogol to work in a dim sum shop in the shopping street, and she slipped away wearing a mascot bear doll suit. Obviously Luanbu did something wrong and was punished. Work, but it turns out that Nanako "pays the debt of the father and the daughter" takes the blame for her father. She could have slept in on weekends, but was forced to help out in the store for a long time. After finishing the work, she had to go to the police station to claim her Lost stupid dad.

Although Edogawa Ranpo insisted that she was at the police station because she "just helped Police Officer Minura solve the case!" In front of Luanbu, he raised his small head and asked to Luanbu:

"Dad, are you going to walk home from here?"

Originally, he was very confident and confident: "..."

Although he didn't want to admit it, he really didn't remember the way home from this police station, after all, he always had a special car to pick him up.

The "special cars" here include but are not limited to: Kenji, Atsushi, Kunikida, Odasaku, police cars in the police station, and a taxi called by the roadside.

"Father can take a taxi back." Ranpo said to Nanako with a serious face, trying to cover up the fact that he didn't know the way with this seriousness, but Nanako who was expressionless looked more serious than him, as serious as a villain Occasionally, the swarthy round eyes do not even tremble.

In the next second, the puppet confiscated Luanbu's wallet and took it away.

"Go back." She said flatly.

The total distance is only more than one kilometer. Even with short legs like her, it takes only 10 minutes to walk there, and it will cost a full [-] yen to take a taxi.Nanako severely cracked down on this kind of lavish and wasteful walking behavior, and by the way, also severely cracked down on Luanbu's belly.

Nanako firmly believes that people can lack exercise, but they cannot have a belly.After all, if the small stomach turns into the beer belly of a middle-aged uncle (the one that walks randomly may be called a snack belly), it would be terrible to think about that kind of thing.

Before the "Taxi home plan" entered the preparation stage, he was ruthlessly beaten back by his own daughter. Feeling that his dignity as a father was lost, Edogawa ran out of the police station angrily, leaving Nanako alone. An angry back.

"Father, it's not over there, it's over here." Nanako grabbed the little cloak that fluttered angrily.

Luanbu who went the wrong way: "...Oh."

Edogawa Ranpo stopped, then changed direction, re-brewed his feelings, and prepared to rewind, but before he had time to "get angry", he heard Nanako behind him asking him:

"...Dad, Xiong Xiong's clothes, have you returned them to the shop manager uncle?"

Edogawa. On the way to handle the case, I thought the doll clothes were too hot. I took them off and didn’t know where to throw them. I didn’t even think about returning them. Chaopo: "..."

Nanako fully realized what might have happened: "..."

——[It's over, and I have to lose money. 】

*******

This is the second time that Ranpo Edogawa has faced this thing called [Book of Beginning and End (Review Book)] after he was 14 years old.

Excellent memory is an essential element for a detective. As long as he memorizes it, he can clearly recall even a string of numbers from ten years ago.Therefore, after sitting at the desk for 10 minutes, Edogawa Ranpo still tried his best to dig out the self-criticism he "wrote" last time from the depths of his memory.

The last time he wrote a self-criticism was seven or eight years ago, because he took Nanako to play in the snow, which made Nanako sick and had a fever, so the president asked him to write a self-criticism to reflect on himself as a "father" dereliction of duty.He couldn't hold back the [-]-word self-criticism, and finally copied his daughter's homework, but this time he didn't have her daughter's homework to copy.

——After all, it was because Nanako filed a complaint with the president, and now he is facing the fate of "writing a review" again after many years.

Edogawa Ranpo seriously reflected on his wrong actions in his heart.He shouldn't have forgotten to buy some cakes to coax his idiot daughter after throwing the blame on his daughter, so that the president overturned the car and found out that he sneaked away and escaped punishment.

But if he had to say it, he felt that he should dare to say it next time.

He bit the tip of his pen, facing the blank manuscript paper in front of him, his eyebrows were knit together, racking his brains to compile the review, while Nanako who had nothing to do on the other side was still playing with Kyoka on the flower rope.

"What is Ranpo-san doing?" Kyoka asked Nanako.

"Write a self-criticism." Nanako answered her, lowered her head and seriously strangled the red string in Jinghua's hand, and then flipped it between her fingers.

"Why do you want to write a review?"

"Because my father left me and Guoguoli to work in the store, and then ran off to play by himself."

I didn’t say that I lost the bear doll costume because police officer Minura helped to find the bear doll costume. Nanako checked it on a shopping website. The price of one such doll costume was enough for her to eat twenty cakes. If you lose it, it is equivalent to losing half a day's wages.

A review was held from morning to dinner, until it was close to the end of work. Luanbu still didn't make up the [-] words required by the president, but after dinner, the president went to a nearby chess room to play chess. Without coming back, Ranpo took Nanako and Gogol and sneaked home an hour earlier than usual.

The famous detective has a smart brain, or super "supernatural power" and super reasoning, so after not thinking about how to fool the president for the time being, Ranpo thought about how to completely escape the fate of "writing a review".

It didn't take even a second for Luanbu to come to a conclusion.The simplest and most direct solution is right in front of him, as long as the person who raised the problem is solved, then the problem will disappear... No, I was wrong, as long as Nanako and the president say to give up the complaint, the president will also He will not be allowed to write a review again.

That is the so-called "drawing from the bottom of the pot".

So first of all, he had to figure out why Nanako wanted to sue the president.After taking a shower, Edogawa sat cross-legged on the sofa, and the hair dryer in his hand rumbled out hot air, drying his damp black hair, making his head full of "booming" sounds, as if being rolled Tossed in the washing machine.

During the day, he heard what Nanako and Kyoka said.Nanako said that he wanted to write a self-criticism because "father left me and Guoguoli to work in the store, and then ran to play by himself."

So first rule out a wrong answer, Nanako could not have complained to the president because he left her to play by herself, after all, he often did this in the club, and Nanako had never complained to the president.

Secondly, if one wrong answer is ruled out, Nanako will not sue the president because she has to work.Although Nanako likes to be lazy, if she is asked to work, she will still finish it honestly. Nanako will not reject the "work" itself.

So what else could be the reason?

Was he punished for disobeying the president's order, and sneaked away without wanting to accept the punishment?That's impossible, just like he knows that Nanako likes to be lazy, as his daughter, of course, Nanako also knows that he likes to be lazy, honestly being punished is not something he will do, looking for opportunities to sneak away is what he does style.

Nanako also came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, her hair was wet, and she looked at her stepping on the plush slippers, then walked back to the room with a small hair dryer, and then stepped on the plush slippers again. She walked over to the edge of the sofa with velvet slippers, plugged in the hair dryer, then sat down on the other side of the couch, and began to blow-dry her hair.

There was no expression on her small face, she was staring straight ahead, but her eyes were out of focus, she seemed to be in a daze, and she was mechanically repeating the action of blowing her hair.

Although Nanako didn't say a word, Ranpo knew that Nanako was a little unhappy now.Nanako has very few emotions, and most of the time, the only emotions she can express are "confusion".

There is a saying in Chinese characters that "the face is as white as paper", which describes a person who is as pale as a piece of paper because his complexion is too miserable. When Edogawa Ranpo sees Nanako sometimes, he also thinks that she is "face as white as paper". , that little face that looks a little thin and not very bloody, is like a completely blank piece of paper, with no traces on it, and it's hard to tell whether it's happy or unhappy.

But Edogawa Ranpo knows that Nanako still has a little emotion. For example, when she was young, Ranpo didn't let her buy a dog, so she didn't ask Ranpo to get up, and the next morning she was alone quietly Going to school is because she is not happy at all.

After drying his hair, Luanbu turned off the hair dryer in his hand. He sat cross-legged on the sofa, looking at the air directly in front of him, as if he was wandering away, and next to his ear was Nanako who was still blowing his hair holding a hair dryer in his hand. The rumbling noise of the hair dryer.

"Nanako." Ranpo said suddenly, without turning his head to look at Nanako, as if he was meditating, motionless, "Dad will not leave you in a strange place next time, let yourself stay with strangers Together."

He said this in a neither high nor low voice, and Nanako was sitting on the other side of the sofa, but the rumble of the hair dryer completely drowned out his voice, which made Nanako hear nothing.

Ranpo knew that Nanako couldn't hear, or in other words, he said that because he knew Nanako couldn't hear. After all, he is "father", and it always makes him feel a little ashamed to admit that he has done something wrong .

It's not that the act of "admitting" is embarrassing, but that "it's obviously a father, but he still did something wrong", which makes Ranbu feel a little ashamed.

Nanako doesn't like to talk to others, and she doesn't like to deal with strangers. She just likes to huddle quietly in a corner by herself, or huddle beside familiar people.Although it is said that even if someone she is not familiar with asks her to do something, as long as it is something that should be done, she will do it honestly, but this does not conflict with her "do not like talking to strangers" at all.

Ranbu ran away by himself, leaving Nanako in the store. Although Gogol was there, neither the boss nor the customers were people Nanako knew at all. Finished", that's why I buried my head and finished the work without saying a word.

She was trying very hard to force herself to stay in a strange place and come into contact with strange people.

Edogawa Ranpo is a person who is "strict to others" and "lenient to himself". If he doesn't like to do something, he will never do it. Even if others think he is willful and rude, he will only Do whatever you want with your own heart.Most people in the world are idiots, why do you have to force yourself for the idiots?

Nanako doesn't like talking, so she doesn't talk, Ranpo never thinks it's a big deal, why should everyone in this world be eloquent?He never disliked that the police were incompetent guys—well, maybe occasionally he disliked them that much, but at least, he never asked them to become as powerful as himself.

As if he himself is the same, he doesn't like to make hypocrisy with those wealthy businessmen and politicians, and say some hypocritical polite words, the president never asked him to learn the so-called "mature social etiquette", as long as he has the ability to deal with " If you don’t do this”, the most important thing is to be happy yourself.

Not every child in the world can do whatever he wants and do not do things he doesn't like. Only a small number of lucky children can have such a privilege.As an unparalleled famous detective, Ranpo has such a privilege, and Nanako is his daughter, so the daughter of a famous detective should naturally be a special "lucky kid".

So next time, just leave Gogol alone in the store.

Edogawa Ranpo seriously reflected on himself in his heart, then dropped the hair dryer in his hand, got up and went into the kitchen, went to get the small cake in the refrigerator, and planned to use the small cake to attract a dog that didn't like him. Talking Nanako.

——All in all, he still has to ask his smart and stupid daughter to help him write the review.
