Yokohama Notes of a Miss Wizard

Although she couldn't figure it out, what Alvira was good at was to put aside the things that she couldn't solve for the time being.

She threw all the Thunder Tree of Punishment and Frankenstein behind her head, smiled and looked at the thoughtful Edogawa Ranpo, "It's coming soon, do you want to clean it up briefly? When we land It's just after seven o'clock in the evening, so you should be able to go directly to the hotel they booked."

The little detective nodded, and took the face towel she handed over.Before he took two steps, he turned back and added, "If you think of anything, you must tell me."

"Yeah." Alvira, who woke up much earlier than him, nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and folded the blankets of the two of them separately.

Kudo Shinichi and Mori Ran, who were sitting in the row in front of the two of them, also stood up and moved their hands and feet.

When the plane landed, the four of them got off the plane back and forth.

Seeing that the little witch and Mao Lilan came together talking and laughing without knowing it, Edogawa Ranpo glared at Kudo Shinichi angrily.

He took a few quick steps and chased after Alvira diagonally, "Al, where are you going now?"

Hearing his question, Alvira raised the boarding pass in Yang's hand, "Go get your luggage."

"Then let me help you?" The green-eyed cat dangled around her, "It's rare for Master Ranbu to help?"

Without looking back, Alvira took out her pendulum and started divination: "It's unnecessary, it's just a box. And I'm your assistant after all."

"Furthermore——" she turned her head, her voice was drawn long, and she sprouted a kind of cuteness that made people unable to get angry at all, "I'm afraid you will get lost with the box."

Edogawa's random footsteps stopped for a moment, he took a breath and puffed up his cheeks, like a cat being driven aside by its owner.

The fluffy tail flicked back and forth, and the angry cat stretched out its paws and yanked the guy who made him angry from time to time, but it didn't really make people anxious, so it had to rub aside depressingly and kept emphasizing own sense of existence.

After picking up their luggage, the group of four got into the car prepared by the sponsor and checked into the hotel that had been arranged earlier.

Before getting off the car, the staff sent by the sponsor to pick up the plane sent two invitations to the two detectives respectively.

"Tomorrow night at seven o'clock, please attend the dinner of the World Detective Contest on time. We will prepare a sumptuous dinner for you to wash away the dust. At the same time, our organizers will announce the rules of the competition at the dinner."

"Please be sure to arrive on time."

It was not too early for them to arrive at the hotel.

Considering that she will attend the detective competition dinner tomorrow night, Alvira made an appointment with Mao Lilan to take the two detectives shopping together during the day.

When she was packing her luggage, she didn't know what dinner party she was going to attend, so she didn't bring any formal clothes.

Otherwise, it would definitely be easier and less troublesome to prepare in advance than to rent here now.

The little witch pulled the suitcase into the little detective's room, stood at the door and said, "I live next door, call me if you have anything to do."

As she said that, she glanced at the time, "I'll call you at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and then we'll go and see what clothes are more suitable."

"You are not allowed to be late, remember?" Miss Witch clapped one hand on the door frame, pretending to be vicious and threatened, "If you don't get up, I will leave you alone in the hotel and go by yourself!"

Ranbu Maomao: It's so fierce to me!

But he couldn't refute at all, so he nodded as he said, and set the mobile phone alarm clock under her nose.

After confirming that Ranpo Edogawa would get up on time, Alvira went back to her room to wash and go to bed.

Although she slept on the plane, but with her wide heart, it is not difficult to lie down and sleep again now.

The little witch closed her eyes, ready to have another sweet dream.

But as soon as she touched the door of the dream, she was awakened by the rapid ringing of the phone.

Alvira turned over and sat up, fumbled for her mobile phone following the ringtone, and asked without looking at it, "Who is it?"

There was a voice on the other end of the phone that she had heard not so long ago.

"Al, I can't sleep..."

The little detective was so wronged that he lay down on the bed pitifully and dialed the phone.

He didn't wake up until the plane was about to land. How long had it been? How could he fall asleep?

The little witch yawned, and a few drops of physiological tears came out of the corners of her eyes.

Her voice was waxy, and she knew that this person was half asleep, "Then what do you want to do? Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Hmm..." Edogawa thought about it for a while, and when he heard the sound of breathing on the phone getting longer, he couldn't help asking, "Are you still awake?"

Alvira replied slowly, "...waking up."

"I want to hear you sing."

"A lullaby?" As soon as she mentioned singing, the answer immediately came to her mind, "No, I'm afraid I'll sing you as Sleeping Beauty."

The little witch can't guarantee that this will not happen, and if it does happen, where the kiss of true love comes from is also a problem.

"So, a bedtime story?"

She shook her head again. "I don't have any good stories to tell."

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, but I just can't sleep." The little detective turned over and made the sound of rubbing clothes.

He was so bored that he rolled on the bed, "Al, do you have any good ideas?"

Alvira, who was forced to chat with her until she became sober, wiped her face, found a bottle of purple potion, and went directly to the door of Ranbu's room with the phone.

She shook the potion bottle and said to the other end of the phone, "Open the door for me!"

Edogawa Ranbu hurriedly turned over and got out of bed, and when he opened the door, he was stuffed with a bottle of potion.

"Take a sip and make sure you sleep until dawn." Alvira was expressionless, eyes half-drowned, "Don't drink too much, I'll go back to sleep."

Seeing the back of her leaving resolutely, Mr. Detective froze at the door, entangled in an irrelevant question.

So why was she able to sleep after sleeping for so long?

Ranpo's sleep problem was finally solved, and both Alvira and Edogawa Ranpo slept refreshed.

Since Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan did not have an effective way to fall asleep like Dream Potion, which has quick effects and few side effects, the four of them had to make a new appointment to see each other in the afternoon.

After all, they are not particularly particular about clothes, as long as they are formal and decent enough, they can all accept it.

The clothes of the two detectives picked up much faster than Lan and Al.

It was almost seven o'clock when Lan and Al had chosen their dresses.The group of four rushed to the address on the invitation without haste.

Not long after the dinner began, the host of the detective contest came onto the stage, and introduced the competition system straight to the point.

"We have spent three years searching all kinds of cases that have been solved or have not been solved from all over the world, and assigned certain points according to their difficulty and whether they have been solved. Soon, the staff will send Each of you has a customized mobile phone. You can see the basic score and general situation of each case on your respective mobile phones, but if you choose a case you want to solve, please contact the corresponding data keeper to obtain More detailed information."

"It should be noted that detectives cannot choose the cases in the area they are active in. And when the final score is calculated, the sorting out of the case, the accuracy of the suspect, and the speed of solving the case will all participate in the calculation of the score."

"There is no doubt that the clearer the analysis of the case, the more accurate the identity of the suspect, and the faster the detective who solves the case, the higher the score."

While he was explaining, the waiters were holding their mobile phones and sending messages from table to table.

"Well, the rules are basically like this. If you need more written and detailed rules, you can find the corresponding files in your phone and read them."

"I'm here, I wish all the detectives success in solving the case."

The host disappeared into the center of the stage as soon as he finished speaking.

After getting the phone, Alvira has been studying the phone, but didn't pay attention to the host's affairs.

She successfully found the overview of each case, browsed through the different points marked on the cover of the case, and patted Ranpo Edogawa, who was eating happily, "There are a lot of cases stored here, which one do you choose?"

Mr. Detective didn't even look at it, and replied very naturally: "Of course it has the highest score! The case with the highest score is the most difficult, most interesting, and most challenging!"

Miss Witch took advantage of the situation and clicked on the corresponding partition, starting from the first case to read out the names.

"The Jail Island murder incident, the Mandala serial killing incident..."

"Then let's go and see Mandala first." Mr. Detective put down his fork, turned on his phone and looked at it, "Well, I need to find him for the information on Mandala..."

Alvira took a bite of the pudding, and asked puzzledly, "Why didn't you choose the Jail Island murder incident? This doesn't belong to the area where you are active, right?"

"But I've heard about this from the military police and the Supernatural Secret Service Division. It would be unfair to use it to participate in the competition."

Edogawa tapped his mobile phone a few times in disorder, pulled Alvira up and walked out of the banquet hall.

As he walked, he said, "Hurry up Al, if you don't hurry up, you'll get the information tomorrow!"

"Okay, okay, wait until I finish this mouthful of pudding." The little witch finished the remaining pudding in two or three bites, took a napkin, wiped her mouth and followed him.

Edogawa Ranpo walked all the way to the door of the banquet hall before slowing down his pace.

"Wait a minute!" He stretched out his hand to stop the host who had just disappeared on the stage, "Master Ranpo needs the information about the mandala serial killing incident, you have it, right?"

The host laughed and praised: "As expected of Mr. Edogawa, a well-known 'supernatural detective' in Japan. Yes, the mandala serial killing incident is indeed in my hands. According to the rules, we will further information will be sent to you."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a trembling voice.

All three looked in the direction of the voice.

The speaker covered his face with the raccoon in his hand, and said tremblingly.

"My generation, I also came to ask for information on the Mandala serial killing incident."

Hearing this, Edogawa Ranbo opened his eyes and looked at this stranger.
