After I divorced from chaos step

It has been less than a week since the last time I came to the Armed Detective Agency.

... I don't know if the toes of Luanbu are better.

I still remember the scene where he kicked open the iron door and brought me out of Ango Sakaguchi's interrogation room.Always loves to act like a spoiled child and loves to make a fuss like a child's random steps, but it is so reliable when he is serious-if all this is not based on lies.

"coming."

After I knocked on the door twice, the door of the detective agency was quickly opened, and it was Naomi Tanizaki who opened the door.

After seeing that it was me, her smile froze for a short while, and a look of bewilderment flashed in her eyes—probably because she already knew about the divorce between me and Ranpo, but she didn't know what I was here for.

Although Ranpo is not young, he has always been the group favorite in the detective agency.His hasty marriage was once opposed by most people, so he resisted all opinions and got married as a joke.

Finally divorced jokingly.

"Hello, Ms. Tanizaki, I'm looking for Mr. Fukuzawa, and I've already made an appointment with him."

I opened the email on my mobile phone and showed it to Tanizaki Naomi. I had already contacted Fukuzawa Yukichi last night, and he asked me to come to the detective agency to find him in the morning.

"……OK."

She pushed open the door and let me in.I could feel the eyes of most people in the detective agency shifted to me at the same moment. I raised my face and smiled politely at them, and then my eyes just met a person lying on the desk.

In just two days, his chin seemed to be a little thinner, and there were faint blue eye circles around his eyes.After seeing me, I suddenly stood up from my seat.

"Qingxixi—"

There was a strong nasal sound in his voice, as if he had a cold.

I nodded to him, turned around and followed Tanizaki Naomi into Fukuzawa Yukichi's office.

This is the second time I have come to this office, the first time is to marry Ranpo, and the second time is to divorce him.

Fukuzawa Yukichi was still wearing the majestic kimono, sitting meticulously.

I bowed to him: "Mr. Fukuzawa, hello, excuse me."

Fukuzawa Yukichi gestured: "Please sit down."

Another clerk has already brewed tea for me, the tea is fragrant, and my fingertips touch the teacup, and I gradually feel warm.

"Qingxi, tell me, why did you want to divorce Ranbu?"

Fukuzawa Yukichi asked this question straight to the point.

I have done some mental construction on the way here, which is not what I expected.Fukuzawa doesn't play tricks on me, he just wants to solve the problem.

Although Luanpo is not his biological son, he is also a child he has taken care of for more than ten years. They are each other's most important people.

I took a sip of hot tea and said softly, "It's better to be separated than to stay together."

This is what the middle-aged man named Morintaro I met in Lihai coffee shop two days ago told me.

He told me not to always think about others, but to listen to my inner choice.

After that happened, the marriage between me and Ranpo couldn't last anymore.He knew who I was from the beginning, and I was self-righteously hiding it from him.

I don't know why he married me, and it's hard to believe what he says anymore.But luckily, I know what I want and what I want to do.

"Is it impossible to give Ranpo a chance? I know there is a bit... conflict between you." Fukuzawa Yukichi frowned, but his eyes were clear, "Of course, I still respect your own choice, after all A marriage needs two people to work together.”

The first half of the sentence is for Luanbu, and the second half is for me.Although Fukuzawa Yukichi loves Ranpo, he is also a fair and reasonable person.

I pondered for a moment and said, "When Luanbu-sang and I were about to get married, you just asked me if I had thought it through."

Half a year is not long, nor is it short.Ranbu and I are like two children, stumbling in the torrent of marriage, quarreling because of living habits, quarreling because of eating habits, from two rookies, we have gradually grown into the loving appearance of an old husband and wife, enjoying the tiredness Crooked little fights, and said far-fetched love words.

But it was all doomed to be erased when he saw the bottle cap with the mouse of the dead logo hidden by him.

If I would leave myself a way out, it would be to run away from home instead of erasing everything about myself, leaving nothing behind.

It's like I've never been there.

"I answered you at the time, and I thought it through. I will answer you now—"

The door was pushed open with a bang.

Fukuzawa Yukichi frowned even deeper.

I have my back to the door, and I know who it is without looking back.

"I've thought about it." I said calmly.

"Qingxixi, I do not agree to divorce." Luanbu still persisted.

The nasal voice is thicker, and it sounds a little choked.

I turned my head to look at him, his blue eye circles were slightly red.He limped towards me, his gaze was like a ray of light shining into the deep and dark pool.

"Edogawa-san."

I changed my name from "Ranpo-san" to "Edogawa-san", that's what I called him when we first met.

His movements froze, and then he sat down next to me. The movement was difficult, but he was mature and no longer childish.

"I can tell you everything, I will never hide anything from you again..."

I took the cushion next to it and handed it to him.I thought that if he sat on the cushion, his feet would be more comfortable.

"You really don't need to explain, it's not your fault." I picked up the tea cup, drank the tea, and said slowly, "I didn't understand what I wanted before. But I understand now, I want to do what I want What I did. Nice to meet you, and thank you, Edo—"

After touching his eyes, I couldn't bear to continue calling him like that after all.

What kind of look is that?It is as if a child is robbed of a beloved toy, and then the toy is destroyed in front of him.There was nothing he could do, he was overwhelmed.He could only stare intently, not even daring to waste the effort of blinking.

It's just that Tosi also looked at me with such eyes.

He also explained and assured me.

The results of it?

I believed him, and he continued to lie to me.

As long as you are soft-hearted and bow your head, those who lie to you will have the opportunity to lie to you with bigger lies.

... You can't easily trust any smart person.

"Ranbu-sang, take good care of yourself in the future." When we were parting, I could only say good things, and I was still a little worried about him. He always behaved like a child, and he took care of himself completely, "Sir Eat some snacks, eat more vegetables, add some calcium supplements if you don’t like to drink milk, steam the carrots and eat them, it won’t bother you so much, dry your hair before going to bed after taking a shower at night, use a towel if you don’t have time to blow it Wrap your hair, don’t drink soda too cold, the curtains are a little loose, please ask someone to reinstall them when you have time..."

I rambled on for a long time, and in fact there were many more. For example, I also wanted to ask him if he had learned how to sort garbage, but those things can be taught to housekeeping, so I didn't worry about it anymore.

"I can't remember," Luanbu shook his head, "Qingxixi, I can't remember so many things."

"...Hmm." I took out a folded letter from my pocket.I came prepared, this is Morin Taro reminding me specially, to write down what I want to say with a pen and give it to the other party.Don’t be afraid of forgetting whether you are right or not.

"It doesn't matter if you don't remember, I have written it down in advance."

I handed the envelope to him, but he refused to accept it, pursing his lips and looking aside.

Fukuzawa Yukichi said softly: "Qingxi, this matter requires your parents to be present."

I smiled wryly and said, "My mother would never agree."

"but--"

"My dad will probably agree, but I have important things to do in the afternoon, and I'm going to finish it in the morning." I didn't pick up the envelope, I put the envelope on the table and pressed it with a teacup.

"Mr. Fuze, you are an elder, so you must have some insights into this kind of thing. I heard that there is a Miss Jin in your hometown who is deeply in love with you, but you have not married yet."

Fukuzawa Yukichi coughed and said awkwardly, "Don't mention that kind of thing."

"This is my own decision, I hope you can understand what I mean."

I stood up and bowed to him and Ranbu each.

Fukuzawa Yukichi finally took out the divorce agreement from the drawer.

It was crumpled, and should have been passed by the Ranpo group, but he didn't tear it off, it seems that it was used to discuss with Fukuzawa.

Fukuzawa Yukichi straightened the agreement and handed it to Ranpo: "Ranpo, you should respect Qingxi's decision."

The clear determination in his eyes is unstoppable.

Luanbu held the pen, and poked the nib on the paper.

He bent his legs and bent his body into a ball.

The sky was fine, and my eyes moved from the paper to the window.The streets are full of traffic and people come and go.It is a slightly drunken early summer.

"The paper is dirty." Luanbu said in a muffled voice.

I moved my eyes back and saw a large ball of ink on the paper because the pen tip stayed in one place for a long time.

"It's okay." I opened my schoolbag and took out the backup, "I still have it here."

This is also what Mr. Forest Taro reminded me, always make a backup to prevent unexpected needs.

Forest Taro seems to be a wise man who knows things like a god.

There was no reason for the random steps. Under Fukuzawa Yukichi's light cough, he picked up the backup agreement and began to sign.

He writes very slowly, as slow as possible, every stroke, every drawing, does not seem to be writing, but more like procrastinating.

Like dragged out handwriting.

【Edogawa Ranpo】After procrastinating for a long time, I finally finished the last stroke.

He said faintly, "My name is really short."

That "na" was almost a sigh.

"Ranbu-sang, I have something to do in the afternoon, and the process may require you to run. Or I will run after I am done. See if you still have time?"

In fact, our process is very simple, because there are no property disputes and no custody of children.

"Qingxixi, I want to give you my money and the house for you to live in. I...move to the president's house."

"Huh?" I didn't understand what he meant.

"You can't take nothing! You need money to eat and buy things."

"Thank you, but you don't have to worry. I'm making money myself."

Many people will fight over property when they divorce, so much that they can't wait to stab each other to death.But it was the first time I saw someone like Luanbu rushing to give money and a house.

My heart is a little warm.Luanbu lowered his eyes, even his eyelashes drooped listlessly, and the corners of his mouth drooped as well, the corners of his lips seemed to be pursing the grievances of the world.

I couldn't help but want to reach out and touch his head.

The young and petite Yuan Qingxi appeared before her eyes again, she raised her chin, so proud that she dismissed me.

【This is not the adult I want to be. 】

[Don't you want to be a hero in my heart? 】

Reality and imagination are constantly intertwined, and I have been floating around for a few rounds in my heart. Well, the latter is more important.

I withdrew my hand.

Then I seemed to see the latter smiling at me.

……

When I left the detective agency, Marui Bunta was waiting for me at the door.

He was wearing Lihai's big khaki team uniform, which was newly customized, but the style still continued the one from more than ten years ago.Back then, many people said that the clothes were dirty and not as handsome as the ones in the Bingdi Tennis Club, but I thought they looked good.

The young Marui wore it, and he looked a little like a boy.

"My lord, how is the matter going?"

"very smooth."

Marui Fumta said with a smile: "Then get in the car, today is Boys' Day, cheer up, everyone is waiting for you there. There are delicious brownies."

Boys' Day!

I suddenly remembered the chaotic carp banner, and I seemed to have eliminated that thing for him... Then, wouldn't he have no carp banner this year?

I suddenly turned my head and looked up.

Luanbu stood by the window.

Standing up towards me from afar.

"Qingxixi—"

The wind carried his voice.

"I like you--"

"This sentence is true—"

I still remember that the day I confessed my love to him, I was also standing in this position.

That day also had fine weather like today.

That day, I raised my head and shouted loudly: "Ranbu-san, I like you——"

Just like him today.

"Let's go." I lowered my head and said to Marui.

Marui opened the car door very gentlemanly: "Yes."

The sound of the car starting drowned out the sound of chaotic steps, and I closed the window.

"...Am I a little cruel?" I couldn't help asking Marui.

Marui said softly: "When others lie to you, you don't feel cruel. Don't you hate being cheated the most? This is your bottom line."

I was silent.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Marui casually threw me a piece of candy.

"Looking forward, there will be more interesting things. This is just a small episode in your life, and it will be fine in a few days."

"it is good."

I tore off the candy wrapper, and it was a pink fruit candy with a line of small characters printed on the candy wrapper.

——The beginning of the story is always very tender.
