After becoming a chaotic daughter

"Then what did Uncle Ranbu say?"

On weekends, people come and go at the station. Standing in front of the automatic ticket vending machine, Miwa listened to Nanako finish the big incident of "Gogol ran away from home (?) and didn't return at night", and caught the narrow and thin part of the ticket vending machine in his hand. The two tickets spit out from the mouth, turned to talk to Nanako.

Receiving a ticket from Miwa, Nanako scratched her hair and answered him: "Daddy said...'Don't think so much, kids'—then sent me to sleep."

Adults just like to perfunctory children. This seems to be the innate skill of every adult, even if it is not like "adults" at all. Whenever Nanako asks a question that he does not want to answer or does not know the answer, he likes to use "" The authority of "adult" made Nanako hold back the question, nicknamed "children don't think so much".

Nanako didn't know if her father didn't like Gogol, so she ignored him completely and didn't look for him when he lost it.But if you really want to say that Luanbu doesn't like Gogol, it doesn't seem like it. After all, Gogol has stayed at home for several years, and Luanbu still cares about him casually and returns him to Gogol. Giving pocket money did not drive him out.

"Hey..." Facing Nanako's answer, Miwa didn't know what to say. Nanako's father did things as he wanted. Although Miwa went to a detective agency to do odd jobs, most of the time he didn't know what to do. I only know that Nanako's father seems to be very powerful, and even the police will respect him when they see him.

It is not easy to comment on the classmate's father casually, so Miwa changed the subject, and walked towards the ticket gate with Nanako: "Doesn't Mr. Gogol know where he is today?"

"Yeah." Nanako and Miwa entered the platform through the ticket gate one after the other, "I called him in the morning, but his phone was still off."

"Hmm..." After thinking hard for three rounds, she didn't think that Gogol was kidnapped and sold away. She had vaguely felt it when she first met Gogol at the detective agency in the leading war in elementary school. Some kind of "dangerous" signal vaguely emanated from Gogol's body.

Although Gogol is always smiling, but to use an exaggerated example, Miwa always feels that if Gogol is in the comics, he should be the kind of character who "won't blink his eyes when killing people" , Compared with "others put him in danger", the possibility of "he puts others in danger" is probably a little higher.

"Could it be that I went to the game hall to play games?" Sanlun finally put forward a very down-to-earth guess, "Or in an Internet cafe... High school boys seem to like to go to the game hall or Internet cafe to play."

Although Gogol did not go to school, in terms of age, he is probably a high school student.

"...I don't know." Nanako could only answer Sanwa dryly, because she really didn't know where Gogol would go.

Not in the detective agency, not on the rooftop, not in the coffee shop, and not in the Gaoqiu Park overlooking the sea behind the red brick office building, nor did I see anyone on the promenade near the sea or in the small park on the street.

Ranpo looked unmotivated, and Nanako didn't know if Ranpo didn't like Gogol a little bit, so she had to go and talk to Yosano about it, and before going out, Yosano also told her Let Huadai use the surveillance in the urban area to find someone.

If you take the subway from the station near the detective agency to the shopping street, you can get there in just two stops. The subway station is crowded on weekends. When Nanako and Miwa got off the train, it took a little effort to squeeze out of the car.

They came to the Sanmaru Sports Store in the shopping street to pick up the newly customized support banner for the basketball team.The broad banner, more than four meters long, is magnificent when unfolded, but when folded, it can be easily stuffed into the packaging bag provided by the store and carried in your hand.

It was just after 02:30 pm when I came out of the sports store.

A new online celebrity milkshake shop opened in the shopping street. The business is full, and the long line at the door blocks the road from the middle. This store is a rare "affordable shop" in online celebrity shops. It is rare to come out. Nanako was also dragged by Miwa, and they waited in line for an hour before finally getting a strawberry vanilla milkshake.

The sweet and sour milkshake was smooth and delicate, Nanako bit the straw, and walked aimlessly on the street with Miwa.

The long shopping street has come to the end, and the pedestrians are also sparse. A little further on, there are some office buildings for companies. Nanako is drinking a milkshake and is about to turn back the same way with Miwa. When I went back, I heard Sanwa beside me suddenly say:

"There seems to be a stadium over there."

Miwa, who has good eyesight, motioned Nanako to look across the road.

Nanako looked in the direction she indicated, and there was a row of green belts across the road, and the barbed wire erected behind the trees could be vaguely seen, which was the kind of net wall used to enclose the stadium.

None of them had been in that direction before, and they found a street court there. Although they hadn't figured out whether it was a basketball court or some other ball game field, Sanwa had already crossed the road with Nanako and bypassed it. Green belt, close to the field.

The sound of the ball hitting the ground was heard one after another, but it was not as dull as basketball. When Nanako approached, she realized that this was not a basketball court, but a street tennis court, probably because this street tennis court was a bit remote , only a few people are playing.

"It's not a basketball court..." Sanlun said with some regret. If it was a basketball court, she would still like to go in and play two balls.

There is no difference between the basketball court and the tennis court to Nanako, she is just watching anyway.Adhering to the simple concept of "it's all here", Nanako looked around and quickly found a stone chair for people to rest, slowly sipping a milkshake, walked over and sat down.

Probably the original intention of setting up the chairs is to make it easier to watch people playing tennis in the court. Sitting on the stone chairs, you can clearly see the people playing in the court from this angle.

While drinking milkshake, Nanako looked at the fluorescent green balls flying all over the sky, her dark eyes did not blink, and her pupils slowly followed the flying tennis balls to the left and then back to the right. I couldn't tell which ball I was looking at, so Sanlun also sat on the sidelines, watching the players in the court play.

The milkshake in my hand quickly bottomed out.

Nanako put down the milkshake, lowered her head and took out her phone, and glanced at the time. It was 04:30 in the afternoon, which was close to evening, but it was not yet dusk, and the sky was still blue.

She tried to make a call to Gogol again, but she still couldn't get through, but this time the prompt changed to "out of service area". Nanako hung up the call, returned the phone to the main interface, and then opened SNS, wanting to Take a look at today's trending searches, but I don't know if it's because it's a bit biased and the signal is not very good. The small circle in the upper left corner of the phone screen has been spinning for a long time, and the webpage is still blank, and nothing can be swiped out.

After struggling for a long time, the internet speed was still so slow that nothing could be accessed. Nanako gave up her efforts and stuffed her phone back into her pocket. When she looked up again, she saw a boy with a big tennis bag turning in from behind the green belt.

It was Echizen Ryoma in a light tracksuit, with his usual white peaked cap on his head. He also saw Nanako and Miwa sitting outside the tennis court. Back to normal, walked towards them.

Noticing Echizen who suddenly appeared, Miwa greeted him subconsciously: "Good afternoon, Echizen-san."

"Good afternoon." Echizen nodded casually, as if he had greeted them, and then walked straight past them and walked into the tennis court.

He put the tennis bag by the entrance of the court, then took out the tennis racket and a barrel of tennis balls, walked to a corner where no one was around, and started to practice the ball.

Although he didn't speak to anyone, he just practiced on an empty court by himself, but Echizen's tennis level is obviously much higher than that of other amateur players in the court. When he came out, he seemed to be very good at serving the ball, his movements were "fancy", and the ball he hit was as fast and fierce as a cannonball.

He just practiced serving for a round, and the only sound left in the court was the sound of his ball hitting the court with a "bang". Those flying tennis balls stopped at some point. Still off the court, everyone's attention was focused on Echizen alone, and no one continued to play his own ball.

"This kid... is super powerful..."

Someone in the stadium muttered to himself.

Seeing Echizen throw another ball, a boy who looked like a middle school student tried to talk to him: "Hey—that...do you want to have a game?"

Just took out a new ball, Echizen casually tossed the ball up, without looking at the ball in mid-air, turned his head and cast his eyes on the speaker, but the racket in his hand accurately caught the falling ball :"Okay."

He bounced the ball with his racket, looking very indifferent.

Then for the next 10 minutes, Nanako watched as Echizen chipped away at 6-0 the few people who lined up to play with him.

Seeing that it was almost five o'clock, although it was cool to watch Echizen show off his skills, Nanako felt a little bored after watching Echizen unilaterally killed the opponent for four or five rounds.

"Mirwa." Nanako called out to Miwa, "Let's find a place to have dinner."

"Ah, good!" Nanako called out to the third round who was still watching the game, and immediately responded, forgetting about Echizen on the court.

They left together without saying hello to Echizen.Although today is the weekend and the shopping street is very lively, it is not the time when Japanese people are used to having dinner, and most of the restaurants on the shopping street have a lot of vacancies.

Nanako didn't make up her mind what to eat, and Miwa was also a bit difficult to choose. The two of them walked arm in arm from the street to the end of the street, and then from the end of the street to the street. After walking around twice, they still couldn't decide what to eat.

Sukiyaki, Sushi, Ramen.

Grilled meat, Okonomiyaki, soba noodles.

Udon, oden, eel rice.

Squatting in a corner by the side of the road, Nanako supported her head, thinking seriously about "what to eat tonight", a question that will never be missing no matter what time of life she is in, and will always trouble people.

Sometimes it is not a good thing to have too many choices. There are dozens of restaurants in the shopping street from the street to the end of the street. She has been entangled with Sanlun for 10 minutes, and she has not chosen which restaurant to eat.

If it drags on any longer, it will be time for dinner. By then, there will be more people in the store, and there will be a queue for dinner. Nanako stood up suddenly, scaring Miwa who was squatting next to her.

"Na, Nanako...have you decided what to eat for dinner?" Miwa stumbled, and asked Nanako, still squatting on the side of the road.

Nanako raised her hand and pointed to the beef bowl restaurant closest to them: "Eat that."

It was fate that I happened to be squatting opposite this restaurant. Since I had fate, I would go to this restaurant, although the main reason was that she really couldn't figure out which restaurant to eat.

Sanlu had no objection and expressed her absolute approval. She didn't want to continue wandering aimlessly on the street like a stray dog.

Nanako stretched out her hand to pull up the three rounds, and was about to turn around and walk towards the opposite Gai Restaurant with her, when a slender figure hurriedly passed behind her, walking too hastily, her arm bumped into Nanako's back On the ground, Nanako staggered two steps forward and almost fell down.

Still holding Miwa's hand, Nanako's body swayed, but she quickly stood still on the spot when she was touched lightly.

When she turned her head, she saw a figure in a loose hoodie. The figure bumped into her, and subconsciously stopped in her tracks. Turning her head, her upper body was halfway sideways, and her hands in her pockets were half outstretched. He came out, as if trying to grab Nanako who was about to fall, but Nanako stood upright by herself, and his hand couldn't be fully stretched out from the pocket.

The person who bumped into Nanako put on the hood of his coat to cover his face, but his movement of turning his head allowed Nanako to see his face clearly, as well as the hair protruding from his neck under the brim of the hat.

It is a "stranger" that Nanako is very impressed with.

That handsome young man with peculiar hair colors of pure white and pink purple.

Not only Nanako, but even Miwa, who only saw him once on the way home from school, recognized him immediately.

"Yes, sorry-"

The young man said hastily, he raised his eyes and saw clearly who the person he accidentally bumped into was, a look of almost astonishment appeared on his face for a moment, the apology he spit out came to an abrupt end, and he froze on the spot, It was completely different from the gentle and polite tone in the previous two meetings, it was like a different person.

"……sorry."

He quickly came back to his senses, put down an apology in a murmur-like tone, then stretched out his hand to lower the brim of his hat a little more, then walked away in a panic, his back even a little "lost" and escape" means.

The figure of the young man quickly turned into an alley somewhere and disappeared.

Miwa felt that he was weird, but she still looked away and asked Nanako, "Are you okay?"

Nanako shook her head, although she staggered a bit, but it wasn't too heavy, and she didn't feel any pain.

Not taking it to heart, Nanako and Miwa went to Gai Restaurant for dinner.

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, Nanako and Miwa finished their dinner and came out of the beef restaurant.

It is the beginning of October, and the summer days with long days and short nights have passed. Although it is not completely dark yet, the semicircle moon has already hung on the gray blue sky of Yokohama.

After eating a little too much, Nanako felt that her stomach was a little full. She turned her head and said to Miwa in a serious manner: "Go for a walk and then go back."

"Okay." Miwa nodded, thought for a while and suggested, "Let's go see if Echizen is still there?"

From here to the tennis court, you have to walk half a street, and then walk from the tennis court to the subway station, which should be able to digest your full stomach.Nanako thought about it, and felt that Miwa's proposal was feasible, so she said "hmm".

They walked slowly from the entrance of the Beef Cap Restaurant to the other end of the shopping street. The shopping street at night was more lively than during the day, with people coming and going, but the closer they walked to the end of the street, the fewer people there were.On that side, the company’s office buildings were all coming and going. Today is a rest day, and there are not many people who are still working overtime. Even many office buildings are dark, and the lights are not even turned on.

"There will be a midterm exam next week..." Like most students, as long as they think about the exam, they will not be happy for three rounds. "It seems that there will be a parent meeting after the exam."

"You are studying, so you won't fail the exam." Nanako tried to encourage her. Although she was very nervous in each exam in the third round, she was always studying hard, so she could at least maintain an above-average level.

"I also hope that I won't fail the exam." Miwa muttered with folded hands, "When will I become as smart as you, Nanako... If I get good grades, my mother will be more assured of me."

It's not that she's smart, but she has money to eat. Nanako can't answer Miwa's question, after all, she can't tell Miwa [As long as you go to high school first, then travel to become a child, learn from scratch, you can rely on Even if she really said that, Miwa would only think that she was seriously joking.

"Ah, it's over." Sanlu suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked to the side, "The tennis court seems to be going to... cross... the road..."

For some unknown reason, her voice gradually dropped. Nanako, who stopped along with her, blinked slowly and turned her head.

A police car stopped on the side of the road, and several uniformed policemen got out of the car, walking towards them.

Walking in the front was a police officer that Nanako didn't know, a middle-aged man in his forties, with a solemn face, a strong and tall body, like a thick wall, he stopped with a few subordinates at Nanako and San In front of the wheel, the expressions of several police officers are exactly the same serious.

The man waved his hand, and immediately two police officers stepped forward, trying to separate Nanako and Miwa who were holding hands.

"What, what are you doing!" Miwa subconsciously dodged the policeman's hand, and grabbed Nanako's hand tightly, keeping Nanako behind her.

She worked odd jobs in a detective agency, and it's not like she hasn't seen the police before, but the sudden appearance of the policemen obviously didn't have a friendly attitude. Same.

"Yokohama Police Headquarters, Asuka Kawabe, Special Investigation Division."

The leading police officer took out his police ID, his tone was cold, and his face was as hard as steel that could not be destroyed.

"The armed detective agency is suspected of murdering several government officials, stealing government secrets, covering up murderous criminals, colluding with the mafia, etc., and is currently wanted. Following the instructions of the Police Department, all relevant personnel of the detective agency have been detained. Edogawa Nanako, as The principal culprit, Ranpo Edogawa, has adopted a daughter who may be involved in the case. According to the instructions, he will be temporarily detained. Anyone who obstructs the execution will be punished as the crime of obstructing official duties."

"—Depending on the situation, those who threaten can be killed on the spot."

He looked down at Nanako and Miwa, condescending, his cold eyes seemed to be looking down on the ants, as if they would be trampled to death in the next second.

Sanlu stayed in place for a while: "...Huh?"

【What is he saying? 】

Sanlun couldn't understand what the man said for a while, it seemed that he understood, but it seemed that he didn't understand a word.

Blocked by Miwa, Nanako raised her head, her pitch-black eyes were without light, and she met the man's gaze without turning around, as if she was petrified, but there was no expression on her face, even I can't see even half of the fear.

【……what? 】

Nanako couldn't understand what the man in front of her was talking about, such as "murder", "stealing secrets", "detention", and "killing". She wanted to call the police, or police officer Aoki—what kind of new Kidnap scam?

She remembered that there was a crime called "pretending to be a soldier and bluffing"—it seemed to be called this crime. I don't know if Japan also has it, but anyway, she had to run away first. She didn't bring any other alarms when she went out. There is only one locator, and it is definitely not possible to directly use the mobile phone to make a call.

Nanako subconsciously grasped Miwa's hand a little bit, trying to find a chance to run away, but when she lowered her head, her gaze swept across the man's waist.

—There was a gun pinned there.

It was the same type of gun that Officer Yasui was equipped with before. Nanako had seen it many times, so she recognized it. It was one of the few types of guns she knew.

Nanako froze for a moment.

【...The police... are they fake... or are they real policemen? 】

Nanako was also a little confused, she felt that what the police officer said was a lie, but they seemed to be real police again...but what he said was obviously a lie.She just came out for an afternoon, how could the detective agency be murdered and wanted again, and even a child like her would be arrested.

"Take it away." The police officer named Kawabe Asuka said coldly.

The police officers who had retreated a little stepped forward again, trying to separate Nanako from Miwa. One of the police officers took out the handcuffs and reached out to grab Nanako's shoulders. The officer grabbed the arm and forcibly tore it away.

--boom!

There was a dull impact sound, and the policeman who was holding the three wheels suddenly let go of his hand, his whole body shook, and then fell backwards.

boom! boom! boom!

The continuous strong impact sounds sounded one after another almost at the same time. Before the other police officers could realize what attacked their companions, the high-speed spinning tennis ball had already slammed into their heads. Severe pain and dizziness swept through their brains, making them unable to even stand upright for a while.

The police officer named Kawabe Asuka was the second to be hit by the ball. He had just pulled out the gun from his waist, but before he pulled the safety off, he felt a pain in the back of his head, as if he had been hit hard from behind. The sap made him stagger, and he almost couldn't hold the gun in his hand, but the violent impact made him lose his sense of balance for a short time, and he couldn't aim and pull the trigger. He raised his hand, trying to point the gun to the gun. The direction of the quasi-attack, but could not find the correct direction.

"run--!!"

Behind the green belt on the opposite side of the road, under the cover of trees, came the voice of Echizen shouting, Miwa made a decisive decision, pulled Nanako around and was about to run.

But they couldn't even run a few meters.

A piercing siren sounded from the road, but within a few breaths, several police cars roared over. The red lights on the roofs of the cars were spinning, and the glaring red light turned the ground into a dull red.

Police cars surrounded them on all sides.

The author has something to say:

[The early plot of the original work of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man is as follows]

(1) The "Five Decays of Heaven and Man" killed four officials successively by cruel means, corresponding to the "Four Decays" in the "Five Decays".

(2) Ranpo got information from Insectaro, and was unwilling to accept this commission, knowing that this commission would "destroy" the detective agency, so he had a conflict with the president.In the end, Luanpo went to investigate the truth of the "destruction of the detective agency" alone, and the others went to investigate the incident of the five declines of heaven and man.

(3) Gogol, one of the Five Decays, pretends to be the secretary of the Dounan Judge and provides him with criminal evidence from the detective agency.For example, he was suspected of killing the wounded when he was with the military doctor Yosano, Kyoka beheaded 35 people, assassinated officials of the main combat faction during the president's war (Judge Dounan's father was one of the officials who were killed), and Dazai a bunch of black material, etc.

(4) Judge Dounan convened a secret meeting of officials who also disliked the detective agency, and conspired to announce the crimes of the detective agency to the world.

(5) Gogol showed his true colors, hijacked the participating officials, and sent a video to the detective agency, declaring that "I will kill these officials in half an hour (at [-] p.m.), "only the detective agency is allowed to rescue", " When people like the military and police come, I will kill the officials directly.”Sigma stabbed the farming chief and used his ability to learn where the [page] was kept.

(6) Before six o’clock, Gogol beheaded other officials except Dounan ahead of time, and gave Dounan a chance to contact the outside world, asking Dounan to “tell who the prisoner is if he has the ability”, and at the same time let Dounan The little boy of the accomplice took off his headgear.Ranpo found the farming chief and learned about [Book Page].

(7) At six o'clock, [Book Page] is activated, reality is rewritten, and the murderer (Five Decays of Heaven and Man) becomes a detective agency. Underneath is the face of the detective agency.Gogol cut himself in half and feigned death.Chief Dounan yelled "The prisoner is a detective agency" and "They killed my secretary (referring to Gogol)" (Because the reality was rewritten by the pages of the book, the corresponding memory was also rewritten)

(8) The detective agency began to disperse and flee, and the hound came out to hunt down the detective agency.Dun and Jinghua took their ally Lucy, and with the help of Ango, boarded the Sky Casino to look for Sigma, a member of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, and planned to get information about the whereabouts of [pages] from Sigma.
