After becoming a chaotic daughter

"What does that man look like?" Kunikida opened the notebook in his hand, the tip of the pen was as sharp as a blade, leaving an ink dot on the blank page, and a white light reflected from the lens.

Threatening young girls—tell Nanako to be careful when going out;

Damaged property - broke Nanako's phone and hat;

Violating city ordinances - fishing along coastal trails where fishing is prohibited;

Add a "suspected to be related to bugs of unknown origin".

Both public and private, it is necessary to find out this man and interrogate him severely. By the way, he also needs to make the other party pay the corresponding compensation. In this case, mastering the basic information of this man is the top priority.

Kunikida's question is very concise and clear, and it is quite normal, but for Nanako, trying to describe the appearance of a stranger with her poor speaking ability is about as difficult as "writing an [-]-character composition to describe the appearance of going to school." Like the appearance of the grocery shopping lady I met on the road", it became a difficult question.

She tried her best to mobilize the words she could think of, and answered him with very dry words: "... tall."

"Yeah." Kunikida wrote down this information in his notebook stroke by stroke, and asked her at the same time, "How tall is it, like me, or like the president?"

"The president is like that... Then, he is very strong, and his arms are thicker than the president's grandfather." Nanako racked her brains to recall, while stumbled, "The eyes and hair are black, soft, short hair, the one here in front The hair is a bit long."

She touched the position of her bangs in front of her forehead, then thought for a while, pointed to the corner of her right mouth, and said, "Here, there is a short scar."

"Black eyes, short black hair, slightly longer bangs, a scar at the corner of the right mouth..." Kunikida wrote down one by one, "Where are the clothes you are wearing?"

"Black, with short sleeves." Nanako replied.

After writing down these few points, Kunikida read it again from the beginning to the end, frowning slightly: "...except for the scar at the corner of the mouth, other descriptions are just a very ordinary appearance."

"How about a different way of thinking?" Yu Xie Ye suggested, she leaned against the edge of the table, put one hand on the table, lowered her head and asked Nanako, "Does Nanako think there is anything special about that man's appearance?"

【Maybe I just think it's scary and vicious...】

Regarding Yosano's question, Kunikida didn't expect to get a special answer in his heart. After all, he met a gangster who threatened him on the road, and the child would only feel scared in retrospect.

Thinking about it this way, his behavior of asking Nanako to recall the other person's appearance is actually not very appropriate. If Nanako is reminded of the scene of fear at that time——

"He's handsome." Nanako replied flatly with her expressionless little face up.

Kunikida: ...Huh? ?

"Special and handsome."

Nanako repeated her answer with certainty.

And Xie Ye: "...handsome?"

Nanako nodded, "Yes."

According to the characteristic "custom" of Japan, it is probably the kind of handsome man who can be hit by rich women in a week if he works as a male publicist in a cowherd shop.

Kunikida: "..."

Very good, a tall and strong young man with a handsome appearance, a scar on the corner of his mouth, his range changed from "finding a needle in a haystack" to "putting beans in a bowl" in an instant, as long as he saw it, he could basically confirm it.

"Cough." Kunikida closed the notebook in his hand, "Then I will notify all departments to pay attention to a man with such a face. Once I see..."

Gently blowing on the scalpel in his hand, Xie Ye said softly and kindly: "Just let him lie down on my concubine's operating bed~"

A group of people tacitly made a plan of "when you find it, put it in a sack first", and then the meeting ended and went about their own business.As for the bug picked up by Nanako, no one cared about that little thing anymore, since Luanbu didn't say anything, let's put it there and raise it first.

They dispersed separately, and cleaned up all the messy things on the desktop before leaving. Nanako also climbed off the office chair from Ranpo, and wanted to go back to the infirmary to do homework with Gogol, but But Ranbu grabbed her by the collar, stretched out his hand and said, "Nanako, give the phone to Dad."

Nanako fumbled in her pocket with her small short hand, took out her child's mobile phone that had been scratched and painted, and put it in Ranpo's hand.A corner of the phone was slightly knocked off a small piece of shell, sunken in a little bit, and there were several places where the paint was rubbed off on the edge, but apart from the scratches on the surface, the inside of the phone can still function as usual.

Luanbu flipped the phone over and looked at it for a while, then returned the phone to Nanako, and said: "From now on, if you see a strange person, just press the alarm on the schoolbag, and don't talk to strangers—even if the person is handsome! "

Nanako let out an "oh" and stuffed the phone back into her pocket.

He paused for a moment, then asked again: "How did that man—a nasty guy, scare you?"

He sat on the office chair, his upper body leaned forward slightly, and approached Nanako. His long and narrow eyes fell to the same height as Nanako's line of sight. On the shoulders, I didn't use any strength, just let Nanako stand in front of him, the boy's still somewhat immature face didn't show any expression, and he didn't have his usual brisk smile, his closed mouth was pursed into a straight line , waiting for Nanako's answer.

Nanako looked at him with dark eyes, tilted her head to think for a moment, and then replied slowly: "Hook the hat with a fishhook, snatch it away, the hat has a hole, then, I take the phone, He snatched the phone away, like this, grabbed me and picked me up."

She stretched out her short hands behind her, grabbed her collar, and gestured for Luanbu to see: "...first on the ground, then carried me to the sea outside, and then put me back on the ground."

Ranpo's expression obviously became unhappy, he had a stinking face, but this slightly irritated emotion was not directed at Nanako, but at the man who scared Nanako and didn't know his identity.

"Nanako."

"Ah."

"In the future, don't walk back after school by yourself and wait for Dad or other people from the detective agency to pick you up."

"Oh."

Nanako still had no mood swings, as if the person who was almost thrown into the sea before was not her. She looked at Ranbu, like a small wooden figure, standing there motionless, waiting for Ranbu to continue Said the next sentence, but Ranbu just pinched her little face vigorously, and then said to her:

"Okay, hurry up and do your homework!"

*******

In order to prevent another "little gangster" from blocking the way and threatening Nanako, for several days in a row, someone from the detective agency came to pick Nanako up after school, most of the time it was Luanbu, sometimes it was Gogol, and occasionally it was with Yosano or Kunikida , Nanako never met strange people again.

In the early morning, it was time to go to school, and today was a day to sleep in and out, so Gogol sent Nanako to school.

Sitting in the porch, Nanako lowered her head and was wearing her little shoes. In the new school year, Ranpo bought her new little leather shoes, which were lace-up styles. Nanako spent a long time tying her shoes every time before she could tie a pair of different shoes. Easy to fall, strong enough bow.

Squatting at the door, Gogol was waiting for Nanako while playing with the bugs in the box.A spring winter coat was draped over his shoulders, which was similar to a cloak. The length fell down just enough to cover his fingertips. When he squatted on the ground, the hem of the cloak coat fell to the ground, but Gogol didn't care at all, he poked the slowly wriggling red worm in the box with a twig he didn't know where to find with a smile on his face.

This "little bug" picked up by Nanako was kept by Nanako when he went to school.Because when Nanako is not around, only he can use his ability to roughly feel where the bug is, but in the eyes of others, the bug will just disappear into the air completely, without any shadow at all.

Mr. Ranpo said that this bug is a creature called a "curse spirit", which is similar to the "monsters" in legends. Only a small number of people with "curse power" can see them.Unfortunately, although there are several supernatural beings in the detective agency, none of them possesses the "magic power".

Gogol doesn't have the so-called "mantra", but he has a very "convenient" ability - space manipulation.

This "very edible" worm has a folded space in its body that can be used to store items swallowed in its stomach, but it just doesn't know how to get it out.As a space-type power user, the current Gogol can perceive the surrounding space of about 20 meters, and this "folded space" is as abrupt as a gourd suddenly appearing in a row of balls. He could easily detect this out of place existence.

The little bug only knows how to spin around in the box. Sometimes it eats and sometimes doesn’t eat what it is fed, and everything can only go in and out. It looks stupid and stupid. How big is the box that contains it? It just wriggled and crawled around in such a small space, and didn't know how to crawl outside the box.

Finally tightening the laces of the two small shoes, Nanako put on her small schoolbag and walked out of the dormitory. She saw Gogol squatting in the corridor, playing with the little bugs in the box.The little white head is furry, the golden eyes are bent into crescent moons, and the smile is innocent.

"Little Worm" was poked over and over again viciously by him, and he moved his curled up body clumsily and laboriously, trying to turn over.

"Guoguoli." Nanako closed the door behind her and called him in a flat tone, "Going to school."

The twig stopped at the moment when it was about to poke the ugly worm again. Gogol threw away the slender but sharp-ended twig, closed the lid and fastened it firmly, and responded briskly, grabbing the children's glasses case The size of a plastic box, got up and walked downstairs with Nanako.

He jumped up and down in front of Nanako, raised his cloak with one hand, and showed Nanako the translucent plastic box in his hand with the other. No sign of stumbling.

"Do you want to keep it forever?" Gogol asked with his head tilted, the silver-white three-strand braid hung behind him, and it swayed greatly as he stepped back and jumped down the steps lightly.

Carrying a small schoolbag, Nanako went down the stairs very slowly. Step by step, she had to step on the steps firmly before she would step on her other short leg. The child's body is short and short, Looking down from the stairs, it always feels very high, so Nanako has to walk very slowly every time she goes down the stairs, for fear that if she is not careful, she will step on the air, and then roll down like a small carrot.

Listening to what Gogol said, she scratched her little head, feeling a little confused.

【...Isn't it raised in Guoguo? 】

Nanako, who hadn't cared about the bugs at all except the day she picked them up, was at a loss.

She carefully thought about it while descending the steps carefully, and felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with her thinking, so she spoke slowly and said, "I didn't raise it...it was you who raised it."

She paused, then asked Gogol, "Do you want to throw it away?"

"Well……"

Gogol lowered his head slightly, with an expression of earnest thinking like an adult on his face. After thinking for a while, he replied:

"Wait until one day it will crawl out of the box by itself, then throw it away."

Nanako said "Oh" all over, and finally stepped on the last step, her feet firmly stepped on the ground, and there was a muffled "boom", as if she had stepped on her whole body forcefully.

They walked towards the school together, and each bought a hot rice ball at a nearby convenience store for breakfast, eating as they walked.

Nanako's rice balls are stuffed with tuna mayonnaise, tuna cubes and mayonnaise are evenly mixed together, served with fluffy rice grains and seaweed...

[It's so unpalatable. 】

Nanako had no expression on her face, but thought from the bottom of her heart.

The fishy smell is mixed with the thick, sour and salty mayonnaise, and the weird taste explodes from the taste buds to the brain.

Tuna and mayonnaise are unpalatable enough separately. Why would anyone want to mix them together and stuff them into rice?

"Wang!"

At the corner of the intersection ahead, a big white dog rushed out with its tongue sticking out. The leash tied around its neck was almost stretched to the limit. Turning back is like urging the person holding the rope behind him.

"Taro Taro... slow down... slow down... ph... ph..."

An uncle's panting voice came from behind the corner. Nanako and Gogol continued to walk forward and saw an uncle standing on his knees, gasping for breath exhaustedly.

"Wow!" The big white dog barked excitedly again, jumping around happily, its soft white fur shaking fluffy and fluffy.

【…】

Nanako stared at the dog, feeling a little familiar. As she continued to walk forward, she subconsciously took another bite of the tuna mayonnaise rice ball in her hand, and her taste buds exploded again immediately.

[Bah, it's so unpalatable. 】

The two little radish heads walked to the intersection together, and passed by the dog. The dog was a bit big, and Nanako felt that it was about the same size as her own. The height just reached her stomach, but it seemed heavy. , but the uncle's hand was tightly tied with a leash, so although the dog turned its head for some reason, stared at them with black eyes, and wagged its tail as if it was going to take off, Nanako and Gogo Li still didn't feel—

"Wang Wang Wang!"

"Wait Taro! Taro!! Shut up, shut up——!"

The dog dragged the uncle and rushed towards them, and a gazelle leaped towards Gogol with a clear goal. It opened its mouth like a fox, revealing its sharp canine teeth. Bite off the uncle's heart-piercing shouts!

I just felt a whirlwind of white flying past my eyes, and the next second, the big dog landed firmly on the ground not far from Nanako's feet, with half a half-eaten rice ball in its mouth, graceful and perfect Landed, very!

At the same time, poof,

The uncle who was dragged away by the dog landed in front of her and Gogol, with his face facing the concrete and his back facing the sky, flying perfectly to the street with zero points.

Nanako: "..."

She subconsciously took another bite of the rice ball in her hand.

— Bah, it's still hard to eat.

Gogol: "..."

He subconsciously took a bite of the...

——Where is his rice ball?

Gogol looked at his empty palm, then at the dog who was buried in cooking not far away, his golden eyes blinked slowly, feeling as if he understood what just happened.

The uncle who threw himself on the street struggled to get up, his legs were fighting, and he was about to beat the dog. As soon as he stood up, he immediately dragged the dog's leash, pulled his dog past him, and apologized to the two innocent passers-by children.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the family was busy two days ago, and I didn't have time to walk the dog. I haven't gone out for a long time. Taro was too excited to go out today. Are you okay, kid? How much is the rice ball? Uncle, I will compensate you, really sorry stay."

The uncle apologized to them repeatedly, and insisted on giving Gogol a [-]-yen bill, enough for him to buy three rice balls.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. My family Taro likes to grab food with others, but he doesn't usually do that outside. I don't know what happened today. Maybe it's because he felt a little too excited about the free air."

After an apology, the uncle led the dog away.

Nanako looked at the dog in the distance, and then turned to look at Gogol who had lost his rice ball and was holding a [-]-yen bill.

She handed over half of the rice ball left in her hand to Gogol. There was no emotion in her dark round eyes, and she looked at him expressionlessly.

Gogol: "..."

He very consciously handed over the one thousand yen in his hand, the smile on his face remained unchanged.

Handing over the money with one hand and the group with the other hand, Nanako folded the [-] yen and stuffed it into her small pocket, thinking that when she got to school later, she would go to the cafeteria to have a good meal while it was still early.

The two little radish heads continued to walk towards the school, half a block away, when Nanako suddenly called out, "Guoguoli."

"Huh?" Gogol bit the rice ball, turned his face to look at her, his golden eyes reflected bright light in the morning light, and the hem of his cloak was slightly raised by the morning wind.

Nanako said, "That dog looks just like you."

A small question mark appeared on Gogol's fluffy head, and then Nanako who was beside him suddenly said:

"Wang."

Thinking seriously with the rice ball, Gogol hesitated for a second, and then said:

"...Wow?"

【…】

[It really seems like oh. 】

Nanako thought to herself.
