Half-blood mixed rice daily

A yellow cordon has been drawn next to the dilapidated warehouse exuding a strong smell of blood, and it is being guarded by heavily armed military police at this time.

As soon as Edogawa Ranpo and Shiina Yusheng approached, the military police pointed their guns at the two: "Who!"

"I'm Ranpo Edogawa from the Armed Detective Agency." The little detective, who was still holding a snack bag in his hand, thought of the tragedy inside, with a solemn expression, "Because I found an expert, I came here early."

According to the recent full schedule of the Armed Detective Agency, this matter was originally scheduled to be dealt with this afternoon.

The military police took out the walkie-talkie suspiciously, and said in a cold tone, "Let's confirm later."

"The officer said that he will come over in a while, you can go to the scene to investigate first." After describing the appearance of the two and confirming that there is indeed one of them, Edogawa Ranpo, the other side immediately expressed permission, "Now I need to confirm, this Who is [Expert]?"

At first glance, it looks like an ordinary college student who has never seen anything in the world, but is actually an "expert"?

Yousheng fumbled in the pocket of his sweater, took out his driver's license from the magic space and handed it over: "My name is Yusheng Shiina, don't look at me like this, I'm actually 27 years old."

Military police: ...! ! !

Another little detective who seemed to be underage immediately raised his hand: "I am!"

——You look like you are 15 years old!

In short, we finally entered the scene smoothly.

Yusheng Shiina fumbled in his sweater pocket again, took out an antenna-like thing, and plugged it into his mobile phone.

It is said to be a mobile phone, but it is actually a system terminal issued by the government of the time. It is usually an ordinary mobile phone interface in the present world. Law enforcement forum”, “law enforcement APP”, “library” and so on.

You Sheng opened the "Software Store" and downloaded an "Energy Detection APP" software.

After confirming that the external detection antenna is well equipped, the energy detection software quickly gives the residual energy fluctuation ratio in the air, as well as the current air composition.

Well, there is no evil spirit, no magic, no magic, no spiritual power... There are some residual fluctuations of supernatural powers, but it belongs to a stump...

Wait, even if it's not a monster, there are many other options, right?

Yuuki Shiina was lost in thought.

And then I feel stupid--

He put away the antenna, took out a pair of glasses from his sweater pocket, and put them on for himself.

Edogawa Ranpo saw the glasses and immediately took out his own happily: "I have glasses too! Are your glasses also a switch for special abilities!"

Onlookers: ...

No, no one complained about the sweater pocket that looks like Doraemon! ! !

"Well, it's just a magic prop." You Sheng glanced at the cute little detective whose eyes lit up instantly from the corner of his eye, dispelling the other party's idea of ​​wanting to play, "Magic props need to be driven by magic, and it's useless for you to wear them."

"What kind of props?"

"Props that can see the concept of energy left in the air to infer what happened."

Edogawa Ranpo's excited smile disappeared immediately: "...what?"

It's a lie.

But the reason for lying here is also very simple, because there are military police around, so I can't tell the real role.

Let's ask again after solving the incident in a while!

The little detective immediately changed tactics.

Yousheng is indeed lying, the function of this glasses is to watch the retrospective scene, just like pulling the progress bar forward when watching a video.

It is very similar to the [Melancholic Blues] ability of a certain Italian stand-in messenger Leo Apache - if it is a technique for performing scene retracement directly on the spot, Shiina Yusheng also knows several.

But that's even more inappropriate.

If the ability to inquire about past events at any time is exposed... the supernatural agent who knows this ability will probably squeeze his labor even more.

Nowadays, he is working hard to socialize as the boss of the monster intelligence house, so as not to expose the potential of the top tool man!

When I introduced my identity before, I used a driver's license instead of a priest's certificate because the clergy in this country are gradually being excluded from the political system after the war. Although they still have to pass the qualification test and belong to the system, they cannot be called standard civil servants.

There is no scene on the lens of retrospective glasses. The principle is to collect and process non-scientific information through the magic lens, and then directly image it on the retina.

So there is no possibility of being seen by others.

After watching the retrospective of the tragedy scene, You Sheng had a solid foundation in his mind.

"It's a ghost." You Sheng took off his glasses and put them back into the pocket of his sweater and threw them back into the magic space, "It's not the kind of ghosts, but the kind of ghosts that feed on humans but are afraid of the sun. They can't go out during the day, you can Disguised as a special professional who turns day and night and lives in the crowd, as long as you can restrain your appetite and desire to kill, you can live as a 'human' in modern society. "

"It's better not to say casually as a joke."

A middle-aged male police officer with a livid face came outside the door: "My surname is Shanshi, and I also know of the existence of some special abilities and even monsters due to professional relationships, but this is the first time I have heard of the 'ogre' in your mouth." explain."

"Really? There is always a first time for everything." You Sheng smiled calmly, "Hello, my surname is Shiina."

"It's a great honor for a big man like you to come to help with the case." It seems that Yamamuro has already figured out the various identities disclosed by You Sheng, and then turned to the little detective beside him, "Mr. Ranpo, it's really great that you came early Alright——I really believe in your reasoning ability, do you also think what Mr. Shiina said is correct?"

"Probably, I'm not an expert in this area." Edogawa Ranpo was very calm, "Even the world's number one detective can only judge that what Shiina just said is true."

Yamamuro was silent for a while, then nodded: "Since Mr. Ranpo said the same thing...Mr. Shiina, can you find that 'ogre'?"

Now it was Yousheng's turn to be silent.

He never expected that there would be people who would completely ignore the class differences such as status and directly ask him, the diamond president, to investigate the case.

However, as an ordinary citizen, it seems reasonable to assist in the investigation...

Confused for a while, You Sheng looked at Ranpo, and began to blame: "Is this case entrusted to the Armed Detective Agency? I have no position to accept the entrustment directly, but I can help the investigation as a foreign aid of the Detective Agency. But, that's all Is it really okay to simply believe in conclusions beyond common sense without even asking about the reasoning process?"

"Inhuman things cannot be solved by conventional means. I have long understood the truth. There are also special emergency measures in the bureau, but once the incident rises to the scope of supernatural beings or non-human beings, it needs to be handed over to the Supernatural Secret Service Division. After dealing with it... there will be a special person to contact the detective agency, I wonder if Mr. Ranpo can accept such a handling method?"

Ranbu squinted his eyes and held his snack bag and tilted his head: "I'm fine, but Shiina may already know who the murderer is, so it's more convenient to directly apply for the opening of the citizen appearance information database for identification."

"So that's the case. I will tell the relevant personnel of the Ability Secret Service Section. Then, please leave the scene first. After the nature of the incident changes, this place will be completely sealed off."

——The action is really strong.

When You Sheng walked out of the dilapidated warehouse, the little detective beside him also heaved a sigh of relief.

The previous atmosphere is really visually devastated and the mood is particularly heavy.

Leaving that scene, Edogawa Ranpo quickly cheered up, and began to ask the questions he was most concerned about:

"What is the real ability of your glasses?"

"Looking back at the scene that happened before."

"Wow, exactly as I guessed!"

"As expected of you, Ranpo-san. Are you going to the playground next?"

"Of course—but I'm completely helpless with vehicles!"

Luanbu confidently expressed the reality that he didn't know the way.

You Sheng couldn't help laughing, although the corners of his lips could not be seen under the mask.

"I see, leave the routing problem to me to solve."

It seems that there is no chance to ask Fox Nosuke what is going on.

This world has indeed never heard of the existence of "ghosts" before.

Even if the world lines converge and merge, how do those "ghosts" appear reasonably?

Could it be that those "ghosts" were actually ordinary people before the world line returned to normal?

……

don't.

The red eyes of the black-haired boy felt a little heavy, then he snorted lightly and stopped thinking about it.

The "reasonable correctness" of the world is downright unfortunate to some - something he'd known for a long time.

What should be done has to be done sooner or later.

If you want to fight against fate, you must struggle hard.

Everyone is just doing what they want to do in their spare time.

For example, what he wants to do most now is to play happily with the little detective for a day, and then happily suck a mouthful of the new flavor of the little blood bag.
