Chapter53

"Arthur Conan Doyle, Britain's top supernatural power user, is also one of the most mysterious British supernatural power people. Although he was awarded a knighthood, he has been outside the British political circles and Vanity Fair all the year round. Of course, he is more The identity known to the world is the author of the world-famous detective novel "The Detective Cases of Sherlock Holmes."

Jiang Gu Ling looked at the document handed over to him by the Supernatural Secret Service Division.

Supernatural abilities are not something that is widely known by ordinary people in society, it is more like an urban legend. Even as a member of the police zero team, he only knew a small part of the information before.But after being transferred to the Yokohama Police Station as a high-level officer, as an official to manage the security of this special city in Yokohama, it is natural to have to deal with the mysterious Supernatural Secret Service Division, which unlocked more information.

When he learned that Mr. Doyle, the famous British writer of mystery novels, is actually a person with supernatural powers, his first reaction was to think of... Conan, no, Kudo Shinichi, if he knew that his most admired idol would actually be With "another face", what kind of expression will you show?

"That person..." Edogawa Ranbu rested his chin with one hand, recalling the short but impressive meeting last year, "It's really strange that he is willing to come to such a noisy forum."

Like Edgar Allan Poe, Conan Doyle is also a person who doesn't like to go to large social occasions, but the difference is that he is not because of social fear, but simply likes to do something that makes him more interested or more comfortable matter.For example, as a team doctor, go to Africa with the team today, sail the North Pole tomorrow, or devote himself to various sports he loves, such as cricket, football, billiards, golf, etc., or simply stay in his hometown of Edinburgh, and don’t bother anyone. he.

But he also absolutely lived up to the responsibilities his knighthood represented when his country needed him.Last year's Five Declines event once implicated Britain. The British supernatural organization Bell Tower Attendant even fell into crisis due to Dostoevsky's assassination. Fortunately, Conan Doyle, a foreign aid who was airborne, saw through it in time. They caught the opponent's trick and tried their best to turn the tide.

The incident of the five declines of heaven and man was also the only intersection between Edogawa Ranpo and him. Although it was very short, she had to admit... In terms of reasoning ability, she was not sure that she would be able to overcome it. He is the only one among people.

Moreover, he did not rely on supernatural powers to reason, or in other words, his supernatural powers were much more troublesome than this.

"Then, the security work of this forum will be assisted by the Armed Detective Agency. This is the basic information for the arrangement of the venue at that time."

Jiang Gu Ling handed over the concise and clear version of the materials he had compiled. He knew that the detective lady didn't like and had the patience to read those long and complicated documents.

The forum held in Yokohama this time will be attended by a large number of dignitaries, and the Metropolitan Police Department has also issued a request to him to ensure the safety of the venue.Moreover, among the guests this time are people with supernatural powers from other countries, including Conan Doyle and Allan Poe, and the Supernatural Secret Service Division is also extremely cautious to prevent any confusion involving supernatural powers.

That's why he specially entrusted the Armed Detective Agency, a local supernatural organization in Yokohama, to assist. Whether it's the understanding of supernormal abilities or dealing with all kinds of supernatural abilities, the Armed Detective Agency is definitely more professional than him, a police officer who has not been airborne in Yokohama for a long time. experience.

Edogawa Ranpo glanced at the materials at hand with a flat expression, and the only thing that aroused her interest was:

"Has the Suzuki consortium bought insurance for their building? No, it should be said... Will any insurance company be willing to accept the Suzuki consortium as a customer?"

It was impressively written on the information that the writers' forum was held at a luxury hotel in Yokohama invested by the Suzuki Foundation.

Suddenly such a topic popped up, Jiang Gu Ling also froze for a moment:

"Huh? Is there a problem with this?"

"Of course there is a problem. Don't talk about anything else. Just say that in the bombings reported on the news last year, more than half of the buildings that were bombed belonged to the Suzuki Foundation." Speaking of this topic, Edogawa Ranpo couldn't help but think of it. One thing that made her a little regret last year, "For example, last year the Suzuki Foundation invested in the newly built Dongdu Aquarium. I was looking forward to it for a long time. Everyone at the detective agency bought tickets, and it turned out that it was the first day I went , The aquarium was blown up beyond recognition, looking at the pictures in the newspaper, the giant Ferris wheel rolled down and crushed the venue next door."

Rei Fuguya: "..." In fact, the destruction of the aquarium has a little something to do with him, really, just a little bit, he is not mainly responsible, um.

"The Suzuki Consortium dares to hold such a large-scale event in its own building, and it's not afraid of being bombed again this time..."

"Also, please don't predict such things in advance, Miss Luanbu."

Furutani Rei, who interrupted in time, felt a faint stomachache... Yokohama is indeed as dangerous as Tokyo.

……

In the middle of the night, Yokohama——

In a hotel room, a man who had not slept soundly woke up from the bed.He sat up slowly, panting slightly, as if he was still struggling to get his consciousness out of the not-so-good dream just now.

Finally, after calming down, he turned his head and looked at his own face reflected in the mirror hanging on the wall on the other side of the room.

Raising his hand, he vainly covered half of his face.

Whispering softly, as if asking the person in the mirror...

Who are you now, "Sherlock Holmes" or "Moriarty"?

……

The next day—

Ranpo Edogawa, who has no work today (all the boring little cases are left to the juniors to solve), is sitting in his office seat, drinking wave soda leisurely.

And this leisurely time was broken by a sudden phone call.

"What's the matter, Hui?"

After seeing who the caller was, Edogawa Ranpo asked straight to the point, although she had a premonition that there was a high probability that some unscrupulous teacher was playing the devil again.

Fu Heihui on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds before throwing the phone to the little friend beside him, let the little friend talk... He really couldn't speak.

After Yuzhang Yuren took the phone, he immediately said anxiously:

"Miss Ranpo! Come to the hospital in Tokyo quickly! Mr. Gojo had a car accident!"

Hearing this, Edogawa Ranbu blinked his eyes, and first judged whether he was still dreaming, and it was such an outrageous dream.

Oh, it's not a dream, the sweet and sour taste of the wave soda in her mouth is real:

"Car accident? Doesn't he have lower limit spells? How could a car hit him?"

Even if you want to lie to her, you should prepare a more advanced deception... Besides, do these brats really think they can fool her?

"Uh……"

Knotaba Yuhito was speechless, thinking about how to organize the language so as to save face for his teacher, but Nagasaki Ye Qiangwei, who couldn't stand it anymore, took the phone directly, and said truthfully:

"When the car accident was about to happen, Wutiao-sensei did dodge it perfectly, but he was proud of his perfect dodge. After dodging the car, he closed the no-lower-limit spell that was just opened...and when he landed Landed on a banana peel perfectly, slipped and fell on the back of his head, so now in hospital."

After hearing this "bizarre" series of processes, Edogawa Ranpo's body trembled, and he asked tentatively:

"Then...how is he now..."

"I had a concussion. The doctor said that he should be able to wake up after a while, but he is still in a coma."

Edogawa Ranpo finally...couldn't restrain himself anymore, he laughed out loud until his body trembled even more:

"Hahahaha! So it wasn't a car accident at all, but slipped on a banana peel! Which hospital in Tokyo, tell me quickly, I'll go right now!"

Now go see that man's joke!

"Uh... at Mihua Central Hospital in Tokyo..."

Although the process was a bit off, the final result... anyway, Miss Ranpo came to visit her, so there was no difference.

After hanging up the phone, the three of them looked at Gojo Satoru who was lying on the hospital bed with a innocent face at the moment... I can only help you so far!Teacher, please fight for your strength, stop tossing us every day to contribute to "Wuluan CP"!

At this moment, the door of the ward was knocked lightly, and then pushed open.

A foreign man walked in with various receipts issued by the hospital in his hand:

"I have already paid all the expenses. I am very sorry for what happened today. Please rest assured that I will be responsible to the end. Ah, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Doyle and I'm from the UK."

The man's flaxen hair was slightly curled, and his purple eyes revealed a long and deep look before he knew it. At the age of more than 30, his face has long faded from greenness, and it is more mature between youth and middle age, and his facial features are typical British facial features, especially the straight and straight eagle. hooked nose.Slender and well-dressed, with a suit vest over the shirt on the upper body, and the pocket watch chain hanging from the pocket watch in the pocket of the vest adds a European retro style.

This person was Arthur Conan Doyle, the driver who almost got into an accident today but still felt responsible and insisted on covering all the medical expenses.

Fu Heihui replied politely:

"Mr. Doyle, the responsibility is not all on you. Teacher, he had already dodged your car at that time, and then...he slipped because of his own carelessness. Besides, teacher, he is very strong, and he should be fine soon It's okay."

"Is it really okay?" Conan Doyle looked at the diagnosis result "concussion" written on the hospital's slip in his hand.

Fu Heihui: "...", how can he reasonably explain that his teacher is as strong as an orangutan.

"Do you need to contact Mr. Wujo's family?" Seeing that the children in front of him were still underage, Conan Doyle thought it would be better to find a reliable family member to discuss compensation and apologize in person, "You have Mr. Wujo's family?" Any contact information for family members?"

Yuzu Yuhito said subconsciously: "Oh, I called just now, and the teacher's girlfriend will be here soon!"

Nagasaki Ye Qiangwei corrected rigorously: "It's an ex-girlfriend, ex-girlfriend, isn't the teacher still reunited with Miss Ranpo?"

Angel student Knotabagi Yuhito: "Well, well, let's save some face for Mr. Gojo."

After Conan Doyle heard the name that is not common for girls, his purple eyes became more interesting, and he asked with great interest:

"May I ask, is that 'Miss Ranpo' you're talking about... Edogawa Ranpo?"
