Natsume is a pet

the next afternoon

Armed Detective Agency

Kunikida Doppo took a handwritten copy and was recording things. After finishing writing, he looked at it a few times, then his eyes shifted, and he looked towards Dazai's empty place, and the anger in his mind rose slightly.

This guy Dazai skipped work for me again——

There are not many tasks received in the past few days, but there are also many things to deal with.

Atsushi Nakajima was holding a thick stack of documents and wanted to show them to Tanizaki Naomi and Haruno Kirako for statistics. When he passed by Kunikida, he said by the way: "Mr. The email from the minister told me to go there at night, and I might not be able to come back until tomorrow."

"By the way, Mr. Dazai, he is..."

"What's wrong with him?" When Kunikida heard his name, he was extremely upset, like a hedgehog, wanting to stab Dazai.

Suddenly the landline of the detective agency rang, and it happened to be close to him.

"Forget it, I'll answer the phone first, and ignore him for now."

Kunikida raised the phone: "Moses, this is the Armed Detective Agency, may I ask you..."

"Kunikida-kun~ I can't go back, the shop assistants here are so scary, can you come and pick me up." Osamu Dazai's voice was choked up, as sad as he wanted, just like a child.

"Bastard, where are you now?" Kunikida's head was on fire at the moment, "It's better to tell me how much the credit is!"

Atsushi Nakajima originally wanted to talk about Mr. Dazai, but it seems that there is no need now, and he was about to walk away silently.

Edogawa Ranpo was sitting on a chair with a lollipop in his mouth, his head in his hands, his eyes closed and he was thinking about something, there were a lot of snacks on the table.

Kunikida spoke to Dazai with a more serious tone, and Ranpo raised his eyelids lazily, looking in his direction.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow(10,"

10 yuan?

10 yuan? ?

10 yuan? ? ?

How can this guy get credit so much, and even be his partner? This really isn't a joke, isn't it embarrassing?

Or, let him work as a waiter inside to repay the debt, and see if he dares to pay on credit next time after paying off the money.

Every time Dazai made something happen, he patted his ass and left after he was done, and he had to clean up the mess.

"You yourself..." Kunikida gritted his teeth and before he could finish speaking, he heard a rough and angry voice on the phone.

"I told you to take 2000 million, and you give me 2000?" The other party didn't want to give Dazai the phone, but talked to Kunikida Doppo himself, and said loudly, "If you want to save someone, bring [-] million here, or come here to collect the corpse !"

"Hey--hey--" The only sound that came from the phone was the hang-up, and Kunikida Doppo cursed, "Fuck, I didn't say where, Yokohama is so big, where will Dazai go?"

Atsushi Nakajima didn't leave after hearing the conversation on the phone, his eyebrows were tightened, and his voice was anxious: "Mr. Dupo, has Mr. Dazai been kidnapped? Where is it? I'll go, I'll rescue him back."

"Damn it, I don't even know where he is." Kunikida blushed with anger, he was really unconscious.

Atsushi Nakajima was trying to recall the places Osamu Dazai often visited, and finally remembered what he wanted to say just now: "Mr. Doppo, I understand!"

What he was thinking just now was: "Mr. Dazai asked for leave in the afternoon to go to a western restaurant to meet the cat."

After leaving a word, Atsushi Nakajima ran out of the lawyer's office at a high speed, and before Kunikida came to ask urgently, the door had already been closed by him.

He hurriedly went to get his coat and put it on, trying to catch up with Atsushi Nakajima. When he went to pull the door handle, Edogawa Ranbu took the lollipop out of his mouth and said, "Actually, there is no need to go, da Killing him can also be solved, because he has already thought of a plan."

"What?" Kunikida, who was in a hurry, was stopped by his words, stopped, and asked back, "It can be solved? How to solve it! Everyone else is in the hands of the kidnappers. It's good if they don't die. If not, I still have to Go there."

Seeing that they were determined to go, Edogawa Ranpo didn't stop him, but continued to think about that brain-burning mystery novel. Today's murder case in this novel was novel and caught his attention.

Atsushi Nakajima and Osamu Dazai got off in a car not far from a western food restaurant. The front of the western food restaurant was covered with shards of glass, and even the name signboard of the restaurant was riddled with holes.

There were signs of destruction all around, and the police just squatted outside, because there were a few hostages inside, so they didn't dare to act rashly, and at the same time sent personnel to discuss with the kidnappers inside.

But they were all shot to death by the kidnappers with guns. The negotiator was shot to death before he even got close to the door. Blood spattered in an instant, and he fell into a pool of blood soon.

In this shooting incident, many "dedicated" reporters risked their lives to take photos as material, and when the gunshots came out, the screams of fear from the reporters were heard the most.

When Kunikida Doppo saw this scene, his heart was shaken.

This kid Dazai should be fine, he took a step and realized again.

Wait... Didn't the kidnappers ask for money?

Atsushi Nakajima got off the car and was about to go to the western restaurant, but Kunikida grabbed his clothes and pulled him back: "Atsushi, wait for the kidnappers to ask for money, now it's hard to escape their hands."

Kunikida took out the book "Ideal" from his pocket, and wrote "2000 million yen" on it, tore off the page, and poured ideas into it to make it concrete.

His ability is to consume the pages on the notebook, but he rarely uses them, unless he takes them out in an emergency.

Two large PVC boxes appeared in front of them out of nowhere, Kunikida quickly picked up the money and hurried to the western restaurant, followed by Atsushi Nakajima.

The man in police uniform saw them approaching and warned, "Get out of here, it's dangerous here, find a safe place to hide, you can't stay here."

However, Kunikida Doppo, who came over, did not leave the western restaurant. He tilted his head slightly, and Dazai Osamu's fluffy hair could be seen on the edge of the broken window, and he seemed to be speaking something.

But can't see it.

Atsushi Nakajima told the police about their identities, and they quickly agreed.

Kunikida Doppo who was standing in the western restaurant didn't want to go up to be cannon fodder first, but borrowed a loudspeaker from the police, which was one of the props used when negotiating with the prisoners, so as to increase the safety of the hostages.

"Hey, I've already brought 2000 million, you guys come out or I go in!" The latter words are a bit redundant, but Kunikida wanted to test it out.

The voice was loud enough for those inside to hear it.

Soon, the people inside also echoed, "If you come in alone, if you dare to think carefully, just wait for the corpse to be collected!"

Dazai is still in his hands, so he should act according to his wishes first, so as not to overwhelm others.

Kunikida held the two large PVC boxes tightly, but he couldn't hide his panic, but he still bravely walked forward.

There were more traces of damage inside than the outside, broken porcelain plates were scattered all over the floor, and the lamp above the head was also crumbling, with the light flickering.

There were a few strong men standing around them. Their skin color was not from their own countries. They were all carrying guns in their hands. They all looked outside, and if there was anyone who was not afraid of death, they would kill them directly.

Osamu Dazai was handcuffed, and when he saw Kunikida coming in, he gave him a moving expression: "Kunikida-kun, you are really here~ Ah, thank you for caring about me..."

"Look, Kunikida-kun really came here with money, don't you think about letting me go? I have to go back to work, and now my colleagues caught me skipping work, so I feel embarrassed."

Did Dazai really not understand this tone and position?

"Oh, Kunikida-kun, I will definitely find you a satisfactory partner when I go out~" Osamu Dazai ignored the kidnappers at all, and continued to say with emotion.

Kunikida Dobubu: "..."

Brother, this is no joke, you are still with him!

Kidnapper: "..."

"Okay, open the money quickly and make sure, or your colleague's life will be in danger." The kidnappers are a little jealous of the police outside, and it is not easy for them to commit crimes in a small organization to survive.

The reason why I took a fancy to this city is that crime in Yokohama is indeed easier than other cities.

Because it's messy here, the gray area is generally turned a blind eye to the police.

The police have nothing to do with Port Mafia and other relatively well-known organizations. After all, the police in the jurisdiction here do not have the real ability to manage them.

So I am more courageous.

Seeing Dazai being pressed on his shoulders, he could only obey and show them the money.

After they confirmed it, they really kept their promise and let it go, but they also brought in a waitress.

The kidnappers could not go to the front, so they went through the back door, and warned them not to follow, and if they followed, they would kill the servant.

After they walked backstage, Osamu Dazai snapped his fingers, and the handcuffs fell off his body with a loud "clang" sound.

Kunikida was about to chase after him, when he heard movement behind him, when he turned around, Osamu Dazai had stood up and stretched his waist in front of him.

"Don't worry, they can't do anything." Osamu Dazai said easily.

Kunikida Doppo: "???"

He didn't believe what kind of nonsense he was talking about, so he chased after him.

……

In the evening, Osamu Dazai bought several boxes of dried fish, and he waited for Mr. Cat in a deserted alley.

What happened today had to be rescued by Teacher Cat, otherwise they would not have been caught so quickly, I thought it would be good if they joined forces.

As a result, Kunikida-kun brought Atsuma Nakajima over.

To his surprise, did Mr. Ranpo not tell them, or forgot?

Mr. Cat walked out slowly, twisting his flexible body, and walked over when he saw Dazai Osamu.

Osamu Dazai smiled: "Come on, Teacher Mao, this is for you today!"

When Mr. Cat saw the dried fish, he swallowed in disappointment. More importantly, Osamu Dazai picked it up and tempted it. He couldn't resist: "Come on, Mr. Cat, why don't you eat~"

Teacher Cat, who was eating happily, said, "I don't owe you anything about Natsume!"

"Don't let go of the relationship so quickly~ We will meet again later!" Dazai Osamu gave it a few cans of dried fish, and left there.

As night fell, after the cat teacher left, another three-colored cat passed by this place. It seemed to be watching something, and it seemed to be an unintentional move.
