This famous detective is too cute

Yuki Shiraishi noticed something was wrong after Abel came back. He only cared about whether his body recovered, but he never asked about Atsushi Nakajima at all.

It made her feel that something was wrong.

Although she knew Atsushi Nakajima's recovery ability was very good, and even went to the Armed Detective Agency to continue his part-time career early, but Abel would not say a word about the child.

Shiraishi Yuki said goodbye to Shiraishi Katsumi's eyes that hated iron and steel, and when he returned to Yokohama in the car driven by Abel, he casually asked, "Has Auntie been at the detective agency these days?"

Then, in exchange for Abel's slightly confused sentence, "Dun?"

"Who is that?"

Yuuki Shiraishi frowned, staring into Abel's eyes for a long time, making him a little uneasy.

"... what happened?"

Behind his round-bottomed milk bottle-like lenses, a pair of blue eyes are full of pure surprise.

He wasn't joking, nor was it a prank.

He really doesn't remember Atsushi Nakajima.

Yuuki Shiraishi didn't explain much, just took out her mobile phone and called Osamu Dazai.

The phone rang a few times, but didn't answer.

Osamu Dazai also lost contact.

"Mr. Dazai has disappeared again."

She was not surprised, but sighed in disappointment, and Abel, who was driving, answered naturally, "Considering his character, this shouldn't be a surprise."

He remembered Osamu Dazai, but he didn't remember Atsushi Nakajima.

Yuuki Shiraishi thought about it, and then called Yosano Akiko who had a pretty good relationship with her,

"With Dr. Yosano,"

"Ah, Yuuki-chan, how is your body recovering?"

"It's all good, I'm already on my way home...By the way, I tried to contact Dazai-san just now, but it didn't work. I want to ask if he is at the detective agency?"

"Look for Dazai...he missed work these two days, but it's a common thing..."

Yosano Akiko held the phone between her shoulders and ears, walked to the window and opened it, then looked out the window again.

"Is there something urgent to find that guy?"

"No, when I was trapped in a different world, the Armed Detective Agency did a lot of work, so I want to thank him, Ranpo-san, and Atsu-kun."

"Dun Jun?"

Hearing the name mentioned by Yuki Shiraishi, Yosano Akiko's eyes flashed with a daze. She knew Edogawa Ranpo and Osamu Dazai mentioned by Yuki Shiraishi, but who is Atsushi?

How could she not remember this person?

Why did Shiraishi Yuki mention him, Edogawa Ranpo and Dazai Osamu at the same time?

"...It's nothing, is Ranpo-san at the detective agency now?"

When Shiraishi Yuki heard Yosano Akiko's words, her heart sank, and then she tried to maintain a relaxed tone.

"My store has been remodeled, so I want to make some desserts as a thank you."

"Mr. Ranpo and Tanizaki went to Kyushu to handle the commission, but depending on the situation, they will return to the detective agency this afternoon. If they come back, I can send you a message."

"Then please~"

Shiraishi Yuki hung up the phone, sat quietly in the back seat of the car, waiting to meet Edogawa Ranpo in the afternoon.

Yosano Akiko and Abel both forgot the existence of Atsushi Nakajima for no reason, and she didn’t need to ask about the others for the time being, and Osamu Dazai couldn’t find anyone, so she could only see if Ranpo Edogawa found anything .

She believed that even if Edogawa Ranpo had also forgotten Atsushi Nakajima, he should be able to deduce his existence.

It is impossible for a trace of a person to suddenly disappear from this world for no reason, and there will always be some marks left behind.

Unless that person is a god.

But she still remembers Atsushi Nakajima, which proves that that person's ability is not omnipotent.

With Edogawa Ranpo's mind, even if the memory of Atsushi Nakajima was artificially deleted from his mind, he would definitely be able to sense the sense of disobedience.

When Edogawa Ranpo and Tanizaki Junichiro returned to the Armed Detective Agency, it was rare to see a peaceful atmosphere.

Kunikida Doppo sat in his office and quickly processed the documents in his hand. Dazai Osamu was still missing. Tanizaki Naomi, who had left the cram school, rushed to Tanizaki Junichiro to be tired, and Yosano Akiko... with Yosano Akiko With a very strange smile on his face, after seeing him, he lowered his head and pressed a few times on the phone, and sent a message.

Edogawa Ranpo looked at the teasing expression on Yosano Akiko's face and knew who she sent this message to.

He didn't comment on this, but just walked around the office, his eyes stayed on a certain blank desk for a few seconds, and asked abruptly, "Where's Dazai?"

Kunikida Doppo, who was working hard, didn't hear his question, and Haruno Kirakako, the president's secretary sitting on the other side, came over with a pile of documents, "Mr. Dazai hasn't been back to the office for several days, maybe What trifles are you getting involved in?"

"Well……"

Edogawa murmured indiscriminately, neither agreeing nor denying, but just found his snack cabinet, took out a few packs of potato chips from it, and then took out a bottle of wave soda.

The little idiot will bring him a cake later, so it's better to eat less of other snacks.

When Shiraishi Yuki received the news from Yosano Akiko, she happened to be preparing the baked biscuit house, and then baked the base of the commercial street cake model. When she received the news, she took it out of the freezer and made it as soon as she came back. Little Cake, ready to visit the Armed Detective Agency.

"Abel, I will leave it to you in the store. I have prepared a copy of all the products and put them in the refrigerator."

"I understand, Miss Yuuki, be careful on the road."

When Shiraishi Yuki came to the Armed Detective Agency with a box of cakes, Edogawa Ranpo just finished eating a bag of potato chips in his hand.

He looked at Shiraishi Yuki who was standing at the door holding up the cake box, and before she could speak, he motioned for her to follow him to the president's office.

"follow me."

He walked over naturally, took Shiraishi Yuki's hand and entered the president's office.

"President, we have something to look for you."

"?"

President Fukuzawa Yukichi was sitting on the office chair, watching Edogawa Ranbu carelessly leading Shiraishi Yuki into the office with a confused face, and involuntarily set his eyes on him holding Shiraishi Yuki's hand superior.

Luanbu in his family...has grown up?

"That's right, I found a problem."

Edogawa Ranpo carelessly took out his own portion from the two small bags in Shiraishi Yuuki's hand, and put it on the coffee table.

"We seem to have been modified by someone."

He unceremoniously used the small fork that came with him in the bag to pick up a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth, feeling the sweet cream melt in his mouth with satisfaction, before he said vaguely.

"Modify...cognition?"

Originally, he thought that Edogawa Ranpo would say something to cheer him up, but he didn't expect the direction to be completely opposite, but these words did make him concentrate immediately.

"you sure?"

"She's sure."

Edogawa shrugged in disorder, motioning Shiraishi Yuki to speak.

"There is a part-time child in my store, who also worked part-time in the Armed Detective Agency not long ago. He is a person with supernatural powers."

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Shiraishi Yuki explained the situation as simply as possible.

"The child was rewarded by overseas forces before, but now he suddenly disappeared, and I found that everyone except me seems to have lost his memory..."

"I suspect that the child may have been taken by those who did not give up."

"Although there is no memory of that person in his mind, the detective did notice that there should be another person in the office."

Edogawa Ranbu bit his fork and nodded, his voice could not hear much tension.

"The main reason is that Dazai is not here now. If he were, he would definitely have noticed the problem immediately."

The reason why Osamu Dazai did not show up these days can only be to prevent the Armed Detective Agency and others from finding out that something is wrong before going to trouble, and also to prevent Shiraishi Yuki, who is protecting Atsushi Nakajima, from discovering the problem, they took the lead in finding a way to solve Dazai rule.

"It is very likely that they have already attacked Dazai first."

Edogawa ranpo took a big bite of the cake, opened his eyes, and faced Fukuzawa Yukichi's face that suddenly became more dignified.

Obviously, he realized the seriousness of the matter.

After getting along with Edogawa Ranpo for so many years, he has learned to save time and not question Edogawa Ranpo's reasoning, "Can you guess where Dazai is now?"

Edogawa Ranbu nodded, "I can probably guess it, but since he has been out of contact for so many days, he should have found some clues, and he should contact us in the next few days."

He said, turning his head to look at Yuki Shiraishi again, "Maybe you are the only accident that made those people miscalculate."

If Yuki Shiraishi had forgotten Atsushi Nakajima, she would not have come to the Armed Detective Agency to ask about it.

As for Edogawa Ranpo, even if he sensed some violations in the office, as long as no one asked about it, he would not take it too seriously.

By the time Osamu Dazai gets out at some point, Atsushi Nakajima may have been cold for a long time.

"What should I say now, get in touch with Mr. Dazai first?"

"Basically, I should be able to get more information from Dazai."

Edogawa nodded in disorder, swallowed the last bit of cake, and put the fork on the empty plate contentedly.

"I know so little information so far, and I can't recall anything about the new guy."

"A person with this ability is quite powerful, but in another sense, his weakness should also be quite obvious."

A person who can erase other people's memory has no other way to go except to become a shadow for a lifetime.

Edogawa Ranpo's reasoning was as accurate as ever, and towards evening, they received a call from Osamu Dazai.

Surprisingly, he was using Fuheshier's mobile phone.

"Hey, Yuuki-chan, you should be by Ranpo-san's side now, right?"

The voice of Osamu Dazai on the other end of the phone sounded much weaker than before,

"Please turn on the speaker and listen to me with Mr. Ranpo."

It is also fate, when Osamu Dazai was attacked, he happened to meet Fuheshier.

Although the other party was essentially a scumbag like him, for Shiraishi Yuki's sake, Fu Heisher still gave this brat who had cheated him a hand.

"Any debt owed to me will be repaid tenfold."
