"The Golden Fleece is an item that only appeared in the Age of Gods. It is already a miracle that the 'Holy Grail' can appear in Yokohama. Humans should not think so much."

Jason warned the Master bluntly.

"I will definitely find the Golden Fleece next time, and then Mr. Dazai will definitely recognize my strength!"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke clenched his fist, he turned around excitedly, intending to tell his beloved Mr. Dazai his feelings, but he was facing the empty ground.

"...It's all your fault, Renhu!"

"Why is it my fault!?"

Atsushi Nakajima, who was angered, ushered in the second beating again.

Nakahara Nakahara, one of the former two blacks, also felt that he was very redundant. He snorted coldly, stepped forward to restrain Akutagawa Ryunosuke, and flew into the air with his collar.

"Next time, I will definitely get rid of you, Renhu!"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke, who was carried in the air and swayed with the wind, still did not forget to lower his head and speak harshly to his opponent on the ground.

"..."

Looking at the cat cub being held by the neck of fate by his parents, Atsushi Nakajima sighed, he no longer has the energy to waste his words with the other party.

The first duel of the 'Holy Grail War' ended very sloppily, only the master was left, and the servants stayed in the spectator seats from the beginning to the end.

Hakone, inside the castle

"Cough cough cough..."

Probably because of the fall, recently I always feel my throat is itchy, and I often cough a few times from time to time.

"It's already very late, does the master have to wait for Mr. Gojo to come?"

Merlin delivered warm water mixed with honey to my hand, and helped me close the wide open window by the way.

"...No, Satoru doesn't have time to come over recently."

I lowered my eyes, and the water in the glass couldn't reflect my shadow at all.

"Is it because the upper echelon of the magic world sent Mr. Gojo a more difficult task?"

Merlin's question made me laugh, and I slightly raised the corners of my mouth.

"Enlightenment is very powerful. For him, there are no tasks that are considered difficult. It's just that he was sent more tasks, which delayed the time to come."

"yes."

Merlin changed the subject again.

"The magic power in Yokohama has fluctuated. It should be a master who started the duel. But the magic power fluctuates for a short time, maybe they are still testing."

"This is normal."

I took a sip of the slightly sweet water and felt my throat relax a bit.

"However, the 'Holy Grail War' is only seven days away. If they continue to test, there is a high possibility of 'abnormality'. It is better to determine the winner earlier."

"Then, are you going to let the No.7 Master enter?"

"Didn't he get in early?"

"Jinghuajiang has been hijacked!"

Accompanied by the shout, the door of the Armed Detective Agency was slammed against the wall.

"Oh!"

"Jinghuajiang has been hijacked!"

Atsushi Nakajima who pushed open the door was panting, tightly clutching a piece of paper in his free hand, his eyes were bloodshot, and his clothes were soaked in sweat. It looked like he was after finding out that Jinghuajiang was missing. For the first time, he ran from the dormitory to the detective agency.

"Bring me the note!"

Ranpo Edogawa put on the glasses shop and held out his hand.

Osamu Dazai, who was lazily lying on the sofa early in the morning, also came over.

[I took this girl away, if you want to see her, you can exchange it with the Holy Grail. 】

This is what is written on the note.

"It was Lucy Maud Montgomery."

Edogawa looked out of the window with random steps.

"It's the red-haired girl from the previous group. She seems to be working in the coffee shop downstairs. If she really did it, I probably can't find anyone now."

Osamu Dazai squeezed his chin.

"I'm going downstairs to see it now!"

After confirming the suspect, Atsushi Nakajima opened the injured door again. Anxiously, he didn't have time to wait for the elevator, so he ran directly downstairs from the stairs.

"Mr. Ranpo, it seems that the hidden Master has appeared."

Osamu Dazai looked at the world's number one detective who had already walked to the window, but the other party did not answer his question.

Edogawa, who was meditating by the window for a moment, turned around and raised his detective cape.

"Dazai, find out all the newspapers in the last month, no, within three months!"

"All the newspapers?"

"all!"

When Atsushi Nakajima returned to the detective agency with the news that 'Lucy asked for leave three days ago', he was greeted by newspapers piled up to the ceiling.

"Mr. Ranpo, Lucy..."

"Jinghuajiang is not in danger now."

Knowing the current situation of the missing colleague from trivial clues, Edogawa Ranpo interrupted Atsushi Nakajima before he could finish speaking.

"Now we have more important things to do, Dun Jun, go and move those newspapers over."

"But……"

Atsushi Nakajima hasn't figured out the situation yet, and he still remembers the little girl who disappeared.

"Mr. Dun."

Osamu Dazai put his hand on Atsushi Nakajima's shoulder, and pushed him into the utility room.

"What we are doing now is to let Jing Huachan return to the detective agency as soon as possible. If Dun-jun wants to help, please follow Mr. Ranpo's instructions."

"…I see."

With the help of Atsushi Nakajima, and the brothers and sisters Miyazawa Kenji and Tanizaki joined in the middle, all the newspapers from the end of July to the end of October were piled up in the office of the Armed Detective Agency, and Edogawa ran in a hurry. reading.

The thin paper was quickly opened, closed, and thrown aside in Edogawa Ranpo's hands. Atsushi Nakajima and the others re-stuffed the discarded newspaper into the utility room with quick eyesight and hands.

10:27

Edogawa Ranpo stopped reading the newspapers. After a large number of newspapers were deleted, there were only seven copies left on the table. He spread out the seven newspapers and motioned everyone to read them.

Osamu Dazai, Atsushi Nakajima and others turned their attention to the newspaper, and saw that Ranpo Edogawa had marked it with a red marker pen. These marks were:

[A mother and daughter were unfortunately affected by the explosion and were treated in time with the help of kind people]

【Hakone's unsold castle has finally ushered in a new owner】

[The richest man in Kawasaki City bought a building in Yokohama and was truncated in half]

[Bombing at Yokohama Central Amusement Park]

[Earthquake felt in Yokohama, suspected crustal movement]

【Yokohama's Rising Entrepreneur - The Gorgeous Fitzgerald from America】

[Urban Legend - The Skeleton Girl on the Street! ! ! 】

"Mr. Ranpo, what are these?"

Atsushi Nakajima was a little confused. If the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and fourth reports had something to do with them, the first report deserved praise for the kind-hearted person's behavior, and the second and seventh reports were completely unclear.

I bought castles and urban legends that no one cares about in Hakone. No matter how you say it, it has nothing to do with Kyoka-chan and Lucy.

"This is the point in time when the adjudicator first appeared in Yokohama."

Edogawa Ranpo's finger pointed at the first marking point.

"That kind man is him."

Following the fingers of the world's number one detective, Atsushi Nakajima finally saw a blurry corner of the cassock from the corner of the photo published in the newspaper.

"Here are the five cassocks, I've seen the 'magician' guy wear them."

Edogawa Ranpo's finger continued to wander, and it came to the second and third marking points.

"The person who bought the castle is the 'magician', and the person who provided him with funds is the richest man in Kawasaki City."

"Hey?!"

Atsushi Nakajima's voice sharpened.

"Is 'Mr. Magician' so rich? Is he also the richest man?!"

"The point is not here, Dun-jun."

Osamu Dazai pushed Atsukun, who was so surprised to stand up, back into the seat.

"Now Yokohama's Central Amusement Park is already a 'Magician' thing."

Edogawa Ranpo clicked on the fourth marker.

"The disappearance of Lucy has something to do with Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald."

The finger moved to the sixth marker.

"Central Plains can't control his followers very well."

Then the finger moved to the seventh mark, and Ranpo Edogawa stopped explaining.

Atsushi Nakajima, who was still anxiously waiting for the commentary of the world's number one detective, blinked.

"Mr. Ranpo, what about the fifth marker?"

The finger finally moved to the fifth marked point, and tapped it hard.

"As for the fifth point, I don't have enough clues yet, so I can't find out what's going on inside."

Edogawa Ranpo's voice sank.

"But based on these clues, I am [-]% sure that the place where the 'Holy Grail War' took place has been changed, and the person who changed is the 'magician'."

"What? How is this possible?"

Atsushi Nakajima stood up in fright again, and the chair under him was slammed into the corner by him.

"'Mr. Magician' wouldn't do such a thing! Didn't he say he was the judge? Referees should be fair and just, shouldn't they?"

"But Don-kun, don't forget, that guy once said something about 'the referee was favoritism in a certain Holy Grail War'."

Osamu Dazai held the newspaper with the fifth mark in his hand, carefully flipping through it.

"But...'Mr. Magician' also went to the orphanage with me to deliver food and clothes to everyone. How could he put the abnormal 'Holy Grail War' in Yokohama?"

Atsushi Nakajima clenched his fists.

"Does he want to destroy Yokohama?!"

"Maybe~ If the 'Holy Grail War' can really destroy Yokohama, maybe I will be able to meet my death, it will definitely be a very wonderful experience~"

Saying that, Osamu Dazai's eyes turned into the shape of longing stars.

"Is there no way to stop the 'Holy Grail War'?"

Atsushi Nakajima slapped the table anxiously.

Edogawa Ranpo's expression was not very good either, he grabbed the newspaper that published the news [The castle that has not been sold in Hakone for many years has finally ushered in a new owner].

"At this point, we can only find that guy. We can't let the 'magician' turn Yokohama into ruins for personal reasons."

The author has something to say: Wu Wu is investigating before, and an armed detective agency is investigating later, Xia, take care (wipe away tears)

Thanks to the little angel who airdropped 20210614 moonstones on 30, whose name cannot be seen from the background, I just found out, sorry, lol~_
