I fish my brother in the river every day

After thinking about it, Li Xu asked:

"There is no time limit, does that mean I can decide when to handle the case?"

Luanbu leaned against the back of the chair and took a sip of soda slowly.

"Yes."

"Do I have choices about the cases I take on?"

"It's up to you, as long as you complete ten."

Kunikida wanted to stop it, but he still didn't speak out of trust in Ranpo.

He shifted his gaze to a child who spoke and behaved very unusually, guessing that she would not agree.

No matter how you look at it, the other party is an individualist through and through.

This kind of person will never agree easily.

Li Xu was silent for a few seconds, her tone unchanged:

"Can you change the conditions?"

Kunikida pushed down his glasses and understood.

This commission cannot be negotiated.

Mr. Ranpo will not be obedient to change conditions.

next second.

Ryu added:

"One more case, can you beat my brother up?"

Kunikida:? ? ?

He couldn't help but speak:

"Wait, didn't you want to entrust us to prevent him from committing suicide?"

"That's right."

Wearing casual clothes that are convenient for activities, Rio casually said:

"But I'm afraid he's too boring, so I want to find something for him to do."

"..."

What are you looking for? !

You just want to hit him!

Ranpo did not accept this condition on the grounds that it was not cost-effective.

Although Rui Xu expressed regret, he still walked away briskly.

After Kunikida and the others left, they finally asked:

"Mr. Ranpo, why did you agree?"

This commission is quite strange from the content to the conditions.

He flicked the soda bottle in random steps, speaking lazily.

"She has the ability to jump through space."

"Spatial jump?"

Kunikida was stunned.

Is this visible?

Luanbu put down the soda, bit the potato chips and said vaguely:

"The president met her once."

After returning to the detective agency, he described the situation he saw at that time.

A dark-haired girl uses short space jumps to escape a stray cat.

According to the body shape change calculated according to time, it is undoubtedly the same person.

Kunikida gradually understood.

Even if [Space Leap] can only be transferred in a short distance, it is a rare ability that can turn the situation around at a critical moment.

I'd rather say-

It is an ability that is extremely suitable for assassination.

If such a person has received systematic training in the other world, he will become an elite killer in a short time.

And if this power is used against armed detective agencies, even they will find it particularly difficult.

"I see--"

As expected of Mr. Ranpo.

Before Kunikida could finish speaking, he was clearly interrupted by Ranbu who swallowed potato chips.

"It's not what you think."

He dragged the end lazily:

"This kind of talent will not allow himself to be used by others."

If you forcefully put a shackle on the cat, not only will you not get any benefits, but you will also be scratched severely and bleed.

"It is most appropriate to provide small dried fish and temporary housing, and to allow free time for stocking."

Kunikida felt an inexplicable feeling:

"Is it really okay to do this?"

Luanbu took back the newspaper again, with a careless expression:

"Hasn't someone already done that?"

after new year.

Rio was flipping through the refrigerator in her brother's new residence.

"Let me see, is there any Coke?"

"Ah, found it."

She was about to reach out for it when she was pulled aside by the collar.

His face sank into the soft duvet.

"Go to the vending machine downstairs and buy it yourself."

Dazai closed the refrigerator door and said slowly:

"I'm not the place to serve you a buffet."

Li Xu simply lay down and wrapped himself in a quilt to play the game console.

"Brother, what's for breakfast?"

"Canned crab meat."

"It's been three days straight."

Li Xu threw the game console aside, took out his mobile phone and prepared to order takeaway.

Dazai bent down and took the phone away, and looked at her:

"Order takeaway at this time—"

"Are you worried that those people can't find me?"

Riu sat up straight without changing his face:

"I believe that the secret you hold can protect yourself."

Therefore, it is more important to improve food.

Risu said leisurely:

"There are fresh ingredients in the refrigerator, do you cook?"

Dazai lowered his eyes and threw the phone on the quilt.

"Why don't you do it?"

Ryu humbly said:

"In order to give you room to play."

"..."

Her brother refused to cook, and bluntly said that he could eat canned crab meat for a few more days.

Rio, who doesn't want to eat canned products in the near future, chooses to be self-sufficient.

After half an hour.

Dazai was typing on the keyboard when he saw the other party bring out a plate of steamed pink mushrooms from the kitchen.

He stared at the plate of strangely colored and absolutely poisonous mushrooms, and remained silent for a few seconds.

"The pot in the kitchen is going to be thrown away."

"Brother, if you eat too much canned food, you will easily suffer from malnutrition."

Risu stuffed the chopsticks into his hand, very calmly:

"not good for health."

"..."

Dazai had no expression on his face.

"So you made me a poisonous mushroom that I have to wash my stomach after eating?"

Li Xu sat next to him, held his chin and said:

"Is your magic chicken stew any better?"

"not to mention--"

She turned the "Complete Suicide Manual" in her hand to the page [Poisoned Death—Mushroom], and the corners of her lips curled up.

"I still have references."

"..."

Dazai stared at Rio, and took back the manual.

"First of all, don't use [space jump] to take things from me."

"Secondly—"

He slammed the page into someone's face and rubbed her head hard.

"Is there any similarity between the color and variety of the mushrooms you serve and the pictures in the book?"

It can't be said that they are exactly the same, it can only be irrelevant.

"In the end, it's not a poisonous mushroom at all."

Dazai's eyelashes drooped, his eyes darkened slightly.

"It won't die, but it will put me in a coma for half a month."

Sure enough, after hearing his analysis, Li Xu smiled slightly.

"Yes."

The indoor lighting is bright, and the well-behaved cat turns into a black-hearted cat in a second.

But even in cat mode now, the pupils are still bright and clear.

There is a natural sense of innocence.

Dazai moved his fingers, and picked up a tuft of the other party's hair.

"It's a mushroom that looks weird and has a coma effect."

He asked softly:

"It's so anti-scientific, where did you find it?"

[Taskers please remember not to disclose information about the other world]

The two looked at each other.

Li Xu was unhurried, with a natural expression:

"Brother, you are a supernatural person yourself, how can you still say that mushrooms are anti-science?"

"..."

【Reasonable】

The system has been polished many times, and now I believe in the adaptability of the taskers.

As long as you don't answer the phone, you won't roll over.

Dazai took a knife and cut open the whole perfunctory mushroom that was only steamed but not cut.

The light refracted on his side face, giving the system the illusion that it was cutting a human head.

It silently called out the visa to save people.

When the mushrooms were cut into bite-sized pieces, he picked up a slice with chopsticks.

Rio saw through his intentions and jumped onto the refrigerator.

"You can eat by yourself, I'm not hungry."

Dazai raised his eyes and stared at her with a relaxed and cheerful tone.

"Don't you like sleeping the most?"

"If you eat this, you can sleep for half a month."

He pretends to be exaggerated:

"Isn't it more time-saving and labor-saving than hypnotic spray?!"

Li Xu was unmoved, she sat on the refrigerator and had no intention of getting down.

"Brother, I sincerely suggest that you'd better eat it while it's hot."

"after all--"

With a movement of her fingertips, a colored drawing of human body structure appeared on her hand.

Li Xu calmly said:

"It shouldn't be a good feeling to have something extra in your stomach out of thin air."

"..."

Dazai looked at her straight, with an unclear expression.

"It's amazing, can your item transfer ability be accurately applied to the human body?"

"of course not."

Ryu speaks truthfully:

"So there is a high probability that it will be transferred to other places in the human body."

Dazai:? ? ?

"But don't worry."

Rio jumped down from the refrigerator, held his hand and said sincerely:

"I can send you to the hospital at any time, and you will never die."

"..."

After her brother ate a piece, he fell down immediately.

Rio looked at the remaining mushrooms on the plate and sighed:

"Brother, you are such a waste."

She had traveled half a continent to locate this mushroom with a red dot map.

【…】

Rio knelt down and poked Dazai curiously.

"Why do I think you didn't swallow it?"

When the system thought that the tasker was going to forcefully force a few mouthfuls of magical mushrooms into someone, she stood up and raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Forget it, I still have alternatives."

At this moment the doorbell rang.

As soon as the door opened, Rio handed the plate with pink mushrooms to Kunikida, and said:

"Mr. Kunikida, if you feel that the situation is about to get out of control, please don't hesitate to use props."

Kunikida:? ? ?

He twitched his eyebrows, just about to say something.

For the convenience of running out far away, leave a sentence.

"I'm leaving in a hurry, you can do whatever you want."

"..."

The plate in his hand was very hot, and Kunikida remembered the suggestion of Luanpo before.

I feel that this commission is a hot potato.

He moved his gaze to someone unconscious on the tatami.

I sincerely sympathize with this client whom I have never met before.

It's really unlucky to have such a younger sister.

Kunikida put the plate back on the table.

The next second—

The person who should have been unconscious got off the sofa, ran into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.

After a few minutes.

When the other party opened the door, there were still thin drops of water dripping from the tip of his hair.

After seeing him, he smiled and said:

"can I help you?"

Kunikida pushed down his glasses and went about business:

"Entrusted by your sister, come to take care of her."

Dazai turned his face sideways, smiled and said:

"I'm fine, I don't need care."

Kunikida looked at the bandages wrapped around the man's body, noncommittal.

The other party seemed to see his thoughts, waved his hands and said casually:

"It's really distressing that my sister is too clingy. These are accidents. I'm fine. I can even go for a few laps outside in good health."

Kunikida pushed down his glasses and said lightly:

"Sorry, but this is an entrusted task."

Dazai poured him a glass of water and asked with interest:

"I don't know where you work?"

"Armed Detective Agency."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kunikida noticed that the man's gaze seemed to freeze for a moment, but when he looked over again, it seemed that there was nothing.

He even greeted them more enthusiastically:

"You actually work for the famous Armed Detective Agency, you are amazing."

"Then, can you tell me—"

He changed the subject, but his smile remained the same.

"What are the conditions of this entrustment?"

The entrustment conditions may involve the principal's secrets.

Generally speaking, detective agencies require confidentiality.

but.

Before he came, Mr. Ranpo said—

"The other party will definitely ask for conditions, tell him."

"However, this is not in compliance with the confidentiality regulations."

Luanbu brows and eyes are high-spirited, casually said:

"If you don't tell him, the commission will definitely fail."

Will it definitely fail?

Kunikida's Adam's Apple rolled down slightly.

"The client asked us to stop your suicide for half a month on the condition that we help the detective agency handle ten cases."

The room fell silent.

"Ten cases."

Dazai lowered his eyes, his expression difficult to discern.

"I'm starting to get a little curious."

His voice was light and ethereal.

"What is she and her friend going to—"

"That's the only way to agree to this condition."

hunter world.

After Xiaojie got off the elevator, he kept looking for someone.

Seeing this, Kurapika asked:

"Did anyone you know sign up?"

Xiaojie nodded:

"Yes, but she doesn't seem to have arrived yet."

"It's too late for us." Leo Li said, "Your friend was brushed in the previous rounds, right?"

Xiaojie spoke seriously:

"No, Riu must be fine."

Kurapika observed his expression, and made a judgment in his heart.

As soon as the voice fell, the elevator door slowly opened.

A child in a black sweater who was playing a game console walked out of the elevator unhurriedly.

Because of the baggy clothes, it looks like a young kitten that hasn't grown up.

But when those eyes flicked over, people were inexplicably aware of the danger.

It is worthy of vigilance.

Leo Li whispered:

"This kid is definitely not a good stubble."

While the other candidates were vaguely distinguishing between them, Xiaojie stepped forward quickly.

"Rio, is the journey going well?"

Li Xu put the game console back in his pocket, speaking lazily.

"It's okay, I fed my brother poisonous mushrooms before going out, it should calm him down for a while."

Crowd: ? ? ?

Good guy, he really is a ruthless person.
