Chapter 19 Raccoon Socialization

After lunch and being pressed for a nap, Yokozaki Yukiya began to learn how to make egg fried rice under the guidance of three housekeeping experts, no, fighting experts.

"Don't worry if the eggshell is broken inside," Akutagawa Ryunosuke stood on the faucet with his hands in his pockets, and said coolly, "I can help you fish it out."

Rashomon's wonderful use method has been added.

"Dry the water in the pot before putting the oil in, otherwise it will splash." Nakahara also stretched out his hand, put it on the edge of the non-stick pot, and separated the water from the pot precisely.

Weird way gravity is applied, added.

Atsushi Nakajima, who only helped move things, was confused: Why are you all so proficient?

Could it be that I can only make tiger skin rags?

After they worked together to prepare each step accurately, Yokozaki Yukiya made an edible egg fried rice without encountering any obstacles.He originally wanted to make himself a side dish or at least a soup, but he was handed out the list and sent out to buy tomorrow's dishes. When he came back, the fried fish and miso soup were ready.

Yukiya Yokosaki: "...Where did you get the fish?" He would never buy such ingredients that are difficult to handle and cannot be preserved for a long time.

"Caught in the sea." Akutagawa Ryunosuke said indifferently.

"This should not be regarded as illegal fishing." Atsushi Nakajima thought.

"Don't worry, no one noticed us on the other side of the cliff we went to." Zhong Yuanzhong also took off his apron.

Yukiya Yokosaki: "..."

This development is completely different from what I imagined at the beginning. Yokozaki Yukiya sat down at the main seat blankly, watching them skillfully sort the bought vegetables into the refrigerator, and ate a mouthful of rice and fish in a complicated way. .

... Sure enough, the fish tastes better.

"It seems that there are no newcomers here today?" Yokozaki Yukiya wiped his hands and felt that he had forgotten something after cleaning up the kitchen after dinner.

"I didn't hear the sound," Edogawa said lazily, who basically lay on the table without moving, "It should be here."

Ayatsuji pedestrians let out a long, long sigh: "Oh."

Yukiya Yokosaki:?

Not daring to doubt whether there was something wrong with Ranpo's logic, Yokozaki Yukiya walked into the study room full of doubts.It was almost evening, and the sun had not yet completely set, but the room showed a gloomy, blurred darkness like the night.Using the light of the sky, Yokosaki Yukiya briefly scanned around the area where the figures were placed, but found no signs of leaving the queue.He looked around for a moment in doubt, then reached out to turn on the light.

Vaguely, Yokozaki Yukiya seemed to hear a sob.

Yukiya Yokosaki: "..."

He leaned over as silently as possible, and sure enough, he saw a puppet crouching on the ground with its head in its arms at the imaginary position.The long clothes fell on the ground, spread out like a crow's tail feathers, completely unable to cover his shivering body.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

Yokosaki Yukiya covered his face, and then silently covered his eyes for a moment.

He never expected that it would be Mr. Po who woke up.

When Yukiya Yokosaki coaxed people into the small villa, and when the door was closed and the curtain was drawn and the whole thing was mentioned in the living room, everyone showed expressions of "what are you doing?"

"Mr. Poe prefers to be alone...but we still need to get to know each other first, so..." He put the villa on the table with some embarrassment, and said, "This is Mr. Edgar Allan Poe, let's call him that first .” It feels like I can’t ask what it should be called for a while.

Edogawa Ranpo smiled falsely: "Sure enough."

Ayatsuji pedestrian raised the cigarette he had just plugged sadly and took a puff.

He knew it.

In a world with supernatural powers, how weak is the government to be unable to dominate the situation, and to stand side by side with the Communist Party and the third-party folks?

Obviously, there is no one who can fight.

Look at the mafia over there, an original force that can control the existence of the planet, and one that can turn into a beast at the top of the food chain.Although it looks like a cat now, you can see how intimidating Atsushi Nakajima is in real size.

Let’s look at the detective agency here again. It can protect Ranpo Edogawa from being beaten to death so far. His elders won’t be too bad, and they can even tame him. Heck, it’s definitely a ruthless person to persuade the stubborn Akutagawa to stay. People, with the other party's personality charm, it is not surprising that there are any magical supernatural beings under his command.

And he-

Originally, there was a one-in-ten-thousand possibility that there might be a martial arts faction appearing.It's a pity, if it's not that they died too fast, it is that the military department has been decentralized and not under their jurisdiction.As for the newcomer, oh, it's still a foreigner. 100% were forced to join after fleeing disasters.

"That..." Atsushi Nakajima moved to the window curiously, but he could only see the shadow of the swaying floral curtain, "Mr. Poe, how are you?"

A thin choking sound came from the window.

Atsushi Nakajima walked away politely and silently.

"Cough, Mr. Po, please don't worry. You must have felt it too. Now you have temporarily lost your memory. In this case, everyone who also lost your memory is your friend."

"Liar," came the faint Japanese with almost no accent, "Since they have lost their memory, it is a stranger who has never met before."

As expected of Mr. Poe, as difficult as ever.

"We can get to know each other again," Yukiya Yokosaki deliberately lowered his voice, pretending to be whispering, "The body you are using now, Mr. Edgar Allan Poe, has a personality similar to yours, but he He is good friends with me, Mr. Ranpo and Mr. Pedestrian. He is also a very powerful mystery novelist, the third in command of the largest organization of supernatural beings in the United States—”

Huh, this turned out to be a writer. Everyone turned their eyes in surprise and stared at the villa.

The curtains were drawn even tighter in an instant.

Yukiya Yokosaki can't do anything about it. In the past, Edgar Allan Poe basically relied on raccoons to socialize. What should we do now? I'm afraid he won't be turned around the next day when he brings the raccoon back.

Damn it, even if this kind of soul can be found, why can't you bring Karl back by the way!

Gaia: ...ah.

Yokosaki Yukimi thought for a moment, then tapped his palm, and said, "Mr. Poe, isn't he curious about the supernatural organization I'm talking about?"

"I'm not curious," said Allan Poe. "Since it's called a supernatural power, it probably means a strange power that breaks through the rules. The third in command of any organization, they just want power."

Yokosaki Yukiya silently turned his attention to Edogawa Ranpo.

Edogawa Ranpo had seen enough of the play, he cleared his throat deliberately, and jokingly said: "Mr. Po's supernatural ability has something to do with his novel, right?"

"As expected of Mr. Ranpo!" Yokozaki Yukiya Seal applauded, with a serious face, and said solemnly, "Yes, it is extremely special, it can change reality, swallow people alive, and with a little effort can make people never again. Those who cannot appear in this world—”

The curtains seemed to be lifted by a small corner.

"—Space system ability! Its name is 'The Black Cat of the Rue Morgue'."

Zhong Yuanzhong was already searching for this person. When he heard the name, he clicked on the article and browsed it quickly. After all, it was a short story, so he could get a general idea soon. At this moment, he immediately praised the site: "It is the combination of two articles. Ah, so the ability to seal people in concrete? Pretty good."

What's wrong, Mr. Nakahara, Nakajima Atsushi glanced at the window of the villa without a word, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine.Wow, it's scary to have an eye sneaking out.

"Indeed, it is very suitable for the ability of the organization. Corpses are always the worst to deal with. If you actively seal them in cement, you can easily throw them into the sea without on-site preparation." Akutagawa Ryunosuke said thoughtfully, "But this can be done The third in command doesn't seem to make sense."

Ayatsuji pedestrian: "..."

Just play it, is it fun?

"No, Mr. Poe's supernatural ability is certainly not as simple as sealing people into a concrete pillar, but it's normal if you can't guess it. After all, it is Mr. Poe—he can introduce readers into the world of novels he wrote through books and other media. You can’t come out without deducing the murderer, it’s one of the few powerful abilities that once contained monsters temporarily—” Yokozaki Yukiya dragged his tone, speaking a little ecstasy, and stopped speaking abruptly when he caught Edogawa Ranpo’s interested eyes, Coughing and making amends, "I used to cooperate with Mr. Ranpo to play a powerful assist, and locked Mr. Chuya into a novel where more than 1000 people appeared, and half of them were murderers."

Zhong Yuanzhong was also so shocked that he almost lost his grip on the phone: "What?!"

Edogawa Ranpo quickly disentangled the relationship: "I have never done that, it was done by other Ranpo."

Nakahara Chuya: "...do you think I will be fooled so easily by you?" It's also Edogawa Ranpo, let alone Nakahara Chuya when there is a need, even if he is called a friend over there Edgar Allan Poe will also be pitted!

Edogawa turned his head in disorder: "Well, that one should be able to come out, too."

"By beating everyone up to extract a confession." Yokosaki Yukiya looked away, sorry Mr. Nakahara, in order not to be questioned about the monster, I can only pull you from the main world on top, "So I stayed in it for ten years For many days, when I came out, I almost opened up the land of that street."

The originally raised curtains were quickly lowered, and through the undrawn gap, one could see Poe shivering in a corner.

Yukiya Yokosaki: "..."

screwed up.

He silently turned his gaze to Ayatsuji pedestrian.

Ayatsuji pedestrians showed a mocking smile: "Mr. Poe, you really like small animals."

"Yes, I like it so much that I keep it with me all the time, and I brought it on purpose when I went to Japan," Yokozaki Yukiya answered knowingly, "Although I always thought that Mr. Poe would have pets like black cats or black crows, it is actually a pet. A very cute little raccoon named Carl!"

"Carl..."

The corners of the curtain seemed to move again.

"Raccoons like to sneak bites," Ayatsuji said. "They also crack nuts and put whatever they want into the water."

Poe: "..."

Yukiya Yokosaki hesitated: "Well...that's right..."

"So let's use a plush toy instead," Ayatsuji said, "Pick him one that looks like Carl and stuff it in."

Yukiya Yokosaki's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked eagerly: "Mr. Poe, do you like small animals? Let's buy your favorite style, any animal is fine, what do you think?"

After a moment of silence, Poe couldn't resist the temptation after all, and said with some hesitation: "...Have you met Carl? That's fine."

"But there are still differences in size, texture, and facial expressions," Yukiya Yokozaki tried his best to persuade, "Come out, Mr. Poe, I will prepare a mobile phone for you, and you can browse it at will. After all, I will go to prepare supper with Mr. Nakahara later. , won't be here for long."

"Will you stay for a long time?" The voice in the villa was a little louder.

"Hmm, how about some black tea first, does Mr. Poe like English black tea? How much milk and sugar should be added?"

"It's all right," the voice lowered again, and added after a while, "Thank you."

"It's okay, it's okay, I knocked on the door? The black tea is at the door~"

Chuya Zhongya: "Tsk."

Edogawa Ranpo: "Tch."

Ayatsuji Xingren: "Heh. It's fine if you're in the middle, but you don't have the right to 'tch'."

Atsushi Nakajima said without much hope, "Akutagawa, what do you think they are talking about?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke said flatly: "I don't know, but Mr. Nakahara and Mr. Edogawa seem to be jealous. Mr. Ayatsuji expressed contempt and thought it was Mr. Edogawa's own problem."

Atsushi Nakajima: "..."

Akutagawa, I alone can't stop Mr. Nakahara from beating up the detective, and of course I can't stop Mr. Nakahara from beating you up. Be sober.

And compared to being beaten violently, Mr. Ranpo's gaze is more terrifying...

Yukiya Yokozaki, who was carefully filling up the small teacup, didn't hear what they were saying, and watched with concentration as a small hand gently pulled the saucer in, before he let out a sigh of relief.He didn't ask Poe what he wanted to eat, and said "I'll get some snacks" before going to the refrigerator.Poe, much more visibly relieved at the sound of footsteps, poked his head cautiously through the open door.

Then he looked directly at five faces with different expressions.

Several people watched him slowly slipping from the door to the ground as if he was suffocating, and said sadly and silently: Liar.

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

Forget it, isn't it just a strange bear child... Bah, have there been more detectives? One is raised, two should be taken, and three can be released. I just hope that the fourth one will not come for such a difficult one.

The author has something to say:

Chuya: I hope such a difficult one won’t be the fourth one
