Yokohama Notes of a Miss Wizard

His eyes seemed to be glowing.

Alvira's ears were red, and she lowered her head without looking too much, but she didn't notice that the other party's ears in the black hair were as red as hers.

Shy and flustered, she stared at the floor tiles and said, "Lanbu, talk to me!"

It's too annoying to say nothing.

Edogawa Luanbu grasped the hand in his palm, his voice was full of joy.

"It's only natural for a stupid witch to like Lord Ranpo. Does this need any special reaction?"

"Need!" The little witch grabbed his hand, pointed at his ear, and expressed her wish super loudly, "Because Luanbu is special to me, so I also want to be the best in Luanbu's heart." That special one."

"But, Ranpo-sama wants to go to the shrine with you, that's already very special." The young man deliberately kept the same pace as her, as if there was an invisible red rope tied between the two of them. On the ankles, the two walked forward like three legs, "As long as I'm with you, even the most boring things will become interesting."

Even if he had to wait in a long line all night to enter the shrine smoothly, he would not feel bored at all.

Because from hearing her answer just now, he has felt unprecedented joy.

"Huh? Are you bored?" Alvira looked at him.

This is the first time for her to participate in the Japanese New Year. Although she has learned about some customs, she has no idea what it will actually be like.

The little detective recalled the rare first few times he was dragged to participate in the past, waved his other hand, and said helplessly: "It's super boring."

"Only sugar taro is worth looking forward to every Chinese New Year, and everything else is extremely boring."

The sugar water is poured on the sweet and glutinous taro paste and taro balls. The amount of sugar seriously exceeds the standard is enough to make anyone feel surrounded by happiness the first time they eat it.

Just like the current Edogawa Ranpo.

"It sounds so sweet." The little witch had never eaten sugar taro, "It really matches your taste."

Mr. Detective said sternly: "Only sweet food is the best!"

"But don't eat too much sugar, right? Otherwise it will cause tooth decay." Miss Witch warned carefully.

"Whoa! But Al will help me!"

"Speaking of which, during the few days when I was not at home, did you drink the tooth-health potion on time?"

Seeing the little detective's dodging eyes, the little witch knew the answer to this question.

She sighed and added, "Remember to drink it when you go back, do you hear me?"

"Aren't you going to move back?" Edogawa waved her hand randomly, coquettishly, "I don't have to worry about such problems when I come back."

"No!" Alvira's eyes were moist, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red with embarrassment.

She doesn't want to have a relationship known to the whole society, and it's a day to day to be able to hide it from the president.

While the two were chatting endlessly, Alvira suddenly noticed that the clothes of the people on the street were different from usual.

"There are so many people wearing kimonos..."

The closer to the shrine, the more common people wearing kimono.

"Is it because you have to wear a kimono when you go to a shrine?"

Seeing that the little witch has already found out if there is a shop nearby that can rent kimonos, the little detective shook his head, "No, you can just go directly."

"But I've never seen Ranpo in a kimono, and Ranpo hasn't seen me in a kimono either."

Alvira spotted a girl wearing an apricot-yellow midi sleeves who had just walked out of a certain shop, and rushed over while dragging Edogawa Ranpo.

"Listen to me, I want to wear it, the middle furisode on that girl just now looks very beautiful."

Ms. Witch dragged Mr. Detective into the same store, and immediately fell in love with a set of black, white and color-matched mid-range sleeves.

There are not as many styles and patterns of men's kimonos as women's kimonos, and they are easy to wear.

Edogawa Ranpo randomly chose a black kimono with auspicious cloud patterns embroidered on the corners of the clothes, and after changing, he sat on the sofa and waited for Alvira to appear.

Fortunately, Alvira didn't keep him waiting.

Miss Witch seldom wears any of the three colors of black, white and gray. The only black dress she wears is the cloak she wore when she first came to Yokohama.

And that cloak was as simple as the most common piece of black cotton cloth out of considerations of concealment and other factors.

But this black and white color matching middle sleeve is a completely different black.

It not only has exquisite dark patterns, but also embroiders large and beautiful chrysanthemums at the corners.Lavender and light yellow chrysanthemums bloomed on the corners of the clothes, and thin gold and silver threads were wrapped around the pink and white belt.

It is a rare, quiet and beautiful appearance.

Thinking of Alvira like this, he was the first person to see, Edogawa Ranpo felt that the waiting before this became worthwhile.

Alvira stepped on the clogs with small steps, raised her sleeves, and turned around in front of Edogawa Ranpo.

"Although it's troublesome to wear, it really looks good!" The girl fiddled with her sleeves in surprise, and carefully moved out of the shop after paying the bill, "If it wasn't so inconvenient to walk, I would have bought a pair wore."

"Speaking of it, I thought walking in clogs was like wearing slippers. After all, I see the president wearing a kimono every day, and it doesn't mean there is any inconvenience in mobility."

"Do you like it very much?" Edogawa Ranpo asked suddenly.

After getting used to the clogs, Alvira finally returned to her usual pace. Before she could react, she asked confusedly, "What do you like? Kimono?"

"Of course I like beautiful clothes, and I like other clothes too. No girl would refuse beautiful clothes, right?"

Mr. Detective nodded thoughtfully, "I see, as long as you like it."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Miss Witch obviously didn't understand his implication, but Mr. Detective didn't have any intention of explaining, but quickly changed to a new topic.

When the two walked slowly to the shrine, there were already many people queuing up.

"It seems that we didn't come too early." Alvira led Edogawa Ranpo to line up at the end of the line.

There were men, women and children in the team, and following behind them was a single man with five children.

Seeing the five children's reactions to people or things outside, Alvira, out of curiosity, poked Ranpo Edogawa beside her, who was squinting and wandering around the sky.

She lowered her voice, covered his ear with her hand, and asked, "Why are there so many children in this family?"

Mr. Detective glanced casually out of the corner of his eye, "It's a reorganized family formed by a kid who lost his parents in the Dragon Head War and a strange guy!"

"How can you say that the uncle is a strange guy!" Miss Witch carefully watched the expressions of the children, worried that they would hear these inappropriate words, "And you should keep your voice down, you are talking about his sadness so loudly during the New Year Well, it’s not very good after all.”

Hearing her words, the little detective tried hard to restrain his laughter, but in the end he couldn't hold it back and let out a burst of laughter.

"Hahahahaha, you actually say it's uncle! Obviously Al, you speak more than I do."

His actions attracted curious eyes from the group of children behind him, but he didn't stop laughing, instead he pointed at the red-haired man.

"Although he has adopted five children, this strange guy is only 22 years old, not at the age of an uncle at all!"

Seeing the gazes of the five children, Alvira almost died of shame and anger, and quickly covered Edogawa Ranpo's mouth.

"Don't laugh! If you laugh again, I'll be angry! It's not like you don't know, I didn't admit my mistake on purpose."

"Ah, it doesn't matter." The red-haired man said flatly, "Whether it's a strange guy or being recognized as an uncle, it's a very common evaluation."

Sure enough, it was heard!

Miss Witch knocked her head on Mr. Detective's shoulder, desperately wanting to scratch her head, but she couldn't do it because of the exquisite hairstyle she had just made.

She smirked, bowed to the man and apologized: "I'm so sorry, I apologize for what we said about you."

"It really doesn't matter. In the eyes of other people, I am indeed a strange guy. This gentleman is right. I don't need to be angry for the fact." The red-haired man still had that indifferent appearance , not sullen.

This person's temper was so good that Alvira even forgot about the previous embarrassment.

She was extremely shocked that such kind people still existed in this world.

Even when she herself first arrived, she would get angry because of Edogawa's merciless comments, and sometimes quarrel with him until they got into a big fight. Why isn't this person angry at all?

What kind of rare animal is this!

Before she could say anything else, the red-haired man's cell phone rang suddenly.

He answered the phone and ended the call after a few answers.

The red-haired man looked at the children with apologetic eyes, "I just received some tasks, and I can't wait with you until midnight. But I will come back as soon as possible. Thank you, Xingsuke, I have to take care of my younger brothers and sisters."

The oldest boy patted his chest and promised: "Odasaku, go ahead! Everyone's safety is on me!"

"that……"

Alvira pursed her lips, smiled at them embarrassedly, and clasped her hands together nervously, "If Mr. Odasaku is at ease with me, I can help take care of it."

"Won't it bother you?" Odasaku looked at Ranpo Edogawa, who was beside her with a not-so-good-looking face, and pointed.

The little witch took the little detective's hand to comfort her, and replied with a smile, "No, I have a way to take care of everyone!"

Oda Saku glanced at the time displayed on the phone, nodded to her and said, "Then I will trouble you, Miss. I will try my best to come back before midnight."

"Hmm, please go at ease."

Miss Witch watched the red-haired man leave, and found five red string bracelets tied with copper bells.

She handed the bracelet to the five children, "I know you are very wary, but this is a bracelet that I have imbued with supernatural powers. It can protect your safety and give an early warning when danger is approaching, so please be sure to wear it. "

"Sister, are you a person with supernatural abilities?" Xingsuke took the bracelet and distributed it to his younger brothers and sisters, while looking at them, "Then what about the brother beside you?"

"He is too." The little witch smiled and looked at the little detective next to him who finally showed a smile, shaking the hands they held together, coaxing softly, "It's a supernatural ability stronger than my sister's!" who!"

Hearing her praise, Edogawa Ranpo forced the corners of his mouth down, and snorted pretending to be angry.

"Don't think that Ranpo-sama will not care about you taking over the childcare commission on your own initiative!"

At least one compliment is never enough!
