About the fact that I was reborn after my strategy was full.

Because of the curse spirit, it was already dinner time to return to the detective agency.

However, as a reward for solving the "spiritual incident", the detective's belly was filled with the cake from the kind shopkeeper, and he was nestling in the chair like a little raccoon.

Of course, as the "guardian" of Ranpo Edogawa, Nanaho Sakino would never admit the mistake of not being able to eat dinner because of the cake, in front of Doppo Kunikida.

Therefore, when the other party asked why Luanbu didn't eat, Qiho Sakino's answer was "I accidentally missed it, and picked up random things from strangers on the side of the road and ate them."

"..." Kunikida Doppo's glasses reflected a frightening white light.

Atsushi Nakajima complained: "Doesn't this sound more serious, Ms. Akashi!"

"...Yes."

Seeing the guilty expression of the person in front of him, Atsushi Nakajima, holding the document, sighed: "And Mr. Ranpo probably just doesn't want to eat dinner."

Ok?

Following Atsushi Nakajima's line of sight, Nanaho Sakino saw the pocky in Ranpo's mouth as soon as he turned his head.

The cozy little raccoon froze.

The cozy little raccoon wiped out the treats with incredible speed.

A great detective was born——

Edogawa Ranpo nodded seriously: "Qasui-chan."

"……what?"

"You have no evidence."

For a moment, Sakino Nanasui felt that this sentence made sense.

Then she remembered that she had done the same thing when she was sick. Jie told her not to let her eat barbecue, but she wanted to eat it.

As a result, he vomited all over the other party while drinking the medicine.

Xia Youjie, who was only 14 years old at that time, endured his temper and glanced indifferently at the residue on his clothes.

【"Isn't this evidence?"】

To sum up, when Edogawa Luanpo vomited, she would have evidence.

"And, that's not the point." In order to get rid of the attention on himself, Edogawa Ranpo suddenly became serious, "The point is that Qisui-chan's parents just came to visit."

Sakino Nanho himself: "Huh?"

"First, all the magazines that were usually placed on the table were put away and replaced with urgently printed materials."

"Second, the rope used to hang himself in Dazai's locker is missing."

All of these are designed to create a decent and positive working environment.

But Sakino Nanho intuitively felt that Edogawa Ranpo still had something to say: "What about the third?"

Edogawa hummed twice: "Idiot Nanasui, haven't you noticed that Dazai himself has disappeared?"

Nanasui Sakino suddenly realized.

Kunikida Doppo froze in place.

Atsushi Nakajima turned pale with shock: "Oops, I forgot to release Mr. Dazai."

As soon as his words fell, there was an unyielding voice of resistance from a certain cabinet in the distance.

When Sakino Nanho leaned over to look curiously, Dazai Kidnapped Edition Haruma blinked innocently.

She reached out and tenderly tore off the tape on the other's mouth.

"It's too much, Kunikida-kun." Osamu Dazai, who was half liberated, complained in a drawn-out tone, "I just said that when I first met Xiao Nanesui, I invited her to die in love, and I didn't say that I'm still thinking about it now, it's normal Everyone can understand."

Kunikida Doppo pushed his glasses: "Put the tape back on again, Akashi."

Being watched by two different eyes of condemnation at the same time, Sakino Nanaho was a little hesitant.

On the other hand, Atsushi Nakajima said faintly: "Anyway, if you don't understand, our detective agency will close down because we can't receive the mission."

Sakino Nanatsu subconsciously answered, "Why?"

However, when she finished speaking, the few remaining people in the office showed subtle expressions.

"Wait! I got it!" Nanasui Sakino made a pause gesture, and quickly opened Google with the other hand.

Speaking of which, when the two police officers heard her name, they acted very old...

Countless search results popped up.

And almost every one has her name on it.

[Foundation] [Heir] [Miss] [Missing in Social Circle]

……

And so on, Sakino Nanaho pupil earthquake.

After a short silence, she put away her mobile phone, coughed pretendingly, and began to agree with Atsushi Nakajima's words: "Cough, that's right, that's it."

"Although Mr. Akashi asked the president to take good care of you." Osamu Dazai, who was lying on the edge of the box, held his chin and smiled in a very good mood, "But Xiao Qisui has been away from home for too long, right? Won't you go back?"

Sakino Nanaho thought about it seriously.

According to the search results just now, [Akashi Nanaho] has learned equestrianism and chess since childhood, and even speaks four languages, and has won flower arrangement and archery competitions...

"I'll be where Mr. Ranpo is." Sakino Nanaho said firmly when she saw these attributes that didn't match any of her own.

Edogawa Ranpo puffed up his cheeks: "Hey, don't keep using Ranpo-sama as an excuse."

"I'm sincere." Said Sakino Nanasui.

When she said this, the ending was soft and slow, it sounded like she was whispering to herself, or like she was acting like a spoiled child unintentionally.

Edogawa Ranpo watched her for a while, trying to connect her behavior of fighting wits with the air in the cake shop before.

Can't figure it out.

So complicated.

Are there really invisible ghosts in this world?

Edogawa frowned in disorder, before he could figure it out, he heard Dazai's light voice.

"It's been raised as a small animal, Mr. Ranpo." The young man's kite-colored eyes were illuminated by the sun's rays, and it was obvious that there was something in his words.

Edogawa Ranpo didn't reply immediately,

The marbles in the soda bottle in his hand made a crisp sound, he stared at Dazai for a while, and suddenly became more serious.

The corners of the young man's lips widened, and he praised him first: "You are very smart, Dazai."

After fading the soft appearance, Edogawa Ranpo occasionally reveals an overwhelming calmness and sharpness.

"But still not as good as me."

He said, lifting his chin proudly.

Nanasui Sakino clapped in unison.

Edogawa turned his head in disorder: "Why are there no ribbons today, Chichi-chan."

Sakino Nanasui: "Sorry, I ran out of time to celebrate your wonderful reasoning last time. The small shop I often go to is out of stock, and I should be able to buy it tomorrow."

Edogawa ran back and lazily said, "You can ask Kunikida for reimbursement."

Kunikida Doppo was taken aback when his name was suddenly called, and he met the girl's fiery gaze as soon as he turned his head.

...I'm not used to it.

"Remember to bring the receipt back." Kunikida Doppo said with a sigh.

Nanase Sakino nodded, indicating that he understood.

The detective agency at dusk fell silent.

Osamu Dazai, who had rested for a day, was ruthlessly dragged out by Kunikida on the grounds that he should not evade the mission. Atsushi Nakajima smiled helplessly, and trotted after them after saying goodbye.

The door of the office opened and closed, Nanho Sakino skillfully smashed the soda bottle, and just as he took out the marbles inside, he heard the sound of Edogawa's random steps.

"Chichi sauce."

"Yes."

"Don't you need to treat your wound?"

Sakino Nanho was stunned, followed Edogawa's Ranpo's gaze, and touched her face belatedly.

...Sure enough, turning off the pain system is not a good idea.

Unless you meet Ms. Yosano, you should open it.

"And just now when Master Ranpo said that you have no evidence, you showed an expression that you were about to cry." Edogawa Ranpo's voice was not disturbed, and he poked her face with some dissatisfaction when he found her frozen in place. , "It's too obvious, forget about Kunikida, you can't fool Dazai at all."

Sakino Nanho: "...Sorry."

Edogawa Ranpo nodded with a "teachable" look: "That's right, as a detective's apprentice, you must at least become smarter than the two policemen you met today."

...If you say you can't do it, you will be scolded.

Nanasui Sakino was deep in thought, and was about to remind the other party tactfully, but her cheek was gently pinched.

"Don't be in a daze!" Edogawa Ranpo taught like an adult—although he was already an adult.

Qi Ye Qiho stubborn: "I did not!"

"Okay." Edogawa Ranpo said, "Then repeat what I just said."

"..." Did he just speak?

"If you want to go back [home], Ranpo-sama can accept your entrustment." Edogawa Ranpo repeated angrily, "Of course, not Akashi's house."

Sakino Nanaho was taken aback.

Is this reasonable?How did you get it?

【"Aren't you going back?"】

Osamu Dazai's smiling voice sounded, Nanho Sakino was in a trance for a moment.

When he pulled his thoughts back again, Edogawa Ranpo had already stood up.

He turned his back to the sun lying under the bridge, and his whole body was surrounded by warm light.

"Although it is troublesome, there is nothing like Ranpo-sama's super reasoning."

The cheeks were pulled to the sides, and it seems that Uri Sakino Nanho also did this to Otoko Yuta.

Ranpo Edogawa smelled sweet.

"So, stop smirking," he said.
