Zhongyuan Zhong also knew that his reputation was getting more and more strange in the world. Two days later, he was attending a routine meeting of the port mafia and was about to go back to review the documents when he heard Mori Ogai smilingly saying "Chuya Have you started to like sweets recently?"

At first, Zhong Yuan thought it was just a whim of the leader, until when he was patrolling at night, the shopkeepers who were usually taken care of by the port mafia brought him desserts prepared in advance.

Zhong Yuanzhong, who has no interest in this kind of thing, naturally refused.

Of course, everything that couldn't be refused was stuffed to Akutagawa who seemed more puzzled than him.

Someone is spreading rumors about him.

Zhongyuan Zhong also frowned, and planned to find out the source of the rumors himself, but when he returned to the port mafia, there was a packaged gift box on his desk.

A red USB flash drive sits above a folded dress, and a note that looks like a letter sits in the corner.

The reason why it is "look" is because there are only two lines of words on it.

[To the dwarfs who eat children also—

No, even though it was Xiao Qisui's request, just thinking of writing to you makes me sick.]

……

Zhongyuan also gritted his teeth.

Sure enough, no one would do such a boring thing except that annoying traitor.

but……

Nakahara Chuya's gaze rested on the name "Qasui".

If I remember correctly, the deceased wife of the tenth generation of Pengelie also had this name.

He was at the funeral on behalf of the Port Mafia.

Zhong Yuanzhong also frowned.

...is it a coincidence?

Edogawa Ranpo likes to act like a baby, but most of the time, Nanaho Sakino can't refuse the other party's acting like a baby.

So when she realized it, she was already in the same position as the snack that Edogawa Ranpo always held in his arms.

On the grass-green sofa, Edogawa Ranpo's chin rested lightly on the top of her head.The young man hung like a koala, wrapped his arms around her, and finally wrapped her around one foot.

Strangely, Edogawa Ranpo was the one who woke up first.

"Wake up, Qisui sauce."

He would squat on the edge of the couch and poke her.

Then before she could answer, she withdrew her hand—

"Forget it, let's continue to sleep."

"Ranpo-sama is going to do the mission first!" Edogawa Ranpo announced.

The corners of his lips were curled, and even his eyebrows were smiling, like a cat lazily grinding its paws after a lunch break.

The door of the detective agency was gently opened, and then closed silently.

Edogawa ran at a slow pace, walking towards the place in his memory step by step.

You can't rely on Qisuijiang forever, so you have to learn some things.

Edogawa Ranpo turned the map twice in his hand, because he asked Kunikida to help him check the route before departure, and it wasn't very difficult to find it.

When Qiho Jiang told the truth, Edogawa Ranpo came up with an idea.

If Qisui is in constant circulation, does the same case exist in the world.

Thinking so, Edogawa Ranpo compared the people who died with the same name in recent years.

"Mr. Ranpo, you are here."

Outside the closed door stood a police officer who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

But the man didn't care that Ranpo Edogawa was a little late, and instead nodded politely.

This is an unsolved case, which has troubled them for a long time. If Edogawa Ranpo can solve the mystery, even if he is an hour late, he has no objection.

Edogawa Luanbu gave a vague "hmm" and pushed the door open without any hesitation.

On the dissecting table was a man's corpse. Even though it was soaked in formalin, it still gave off a pungent smell because there were no family members and it had been stored for too long.

Edogawa Ranpo, who was always childish, didn't frown because of this.

"Sure enough, it's right not to bring Qisui sauce." The detective muttered.

On the bridge of his nose was a pair of glasses, and his green eyes were open, calmly catching every clue as they fell.

The autopsy report showed that there were no wounds, and the internal organs of the deceased were intact, but the blood in the blood vessels had already stopped flowing.

Then the heartbeat and breathing also stopped.

Such a person, why did he die?

To be more precise, such physical conditions are fundamentally prepared for the resurrection of the dead in the future.

The phone in his pocket vibrated at this moment.

[over slept!Feel sorry! ]

It was a text message from Qisuijiang, with a cute emoji at the end.

[Where is Mr. Ranpo?Do you need me to pick you up? ]

The detective's mood improved visibly with the naked eye.

[No!After Qisui-chan finishes reading the document, Lord Ranpo will be back! ]

Edogawa walked back in disorder.

[Hey, did Mr. Ranpo recognize his way? ]

[Yeah, I tried my best. ]

Although he made two wrong trips, the tram passed the stop, and his hair was wet from the water splashed by the car running over the puddle while waiting for the traffic lights, but Ranpo Edogawa was not in a bad mood.

If we finish quickly, we can see Nanasui when we go back.

"Have you any idea, Mr. Detective?" asked the police officer who had been standing by.

"Yeah." Edogawa ranpo put away his phone, "You said before that his body was found when the scene was cleaned up after the fire, right?"

The officer who heard this froze: "No, I didn't say that - but as you said, we found him in a building that was completely burned down."

For a moment, the young police officer was full of admiration for the detective in front of him who was told by his superior to take good care of him.

Edogawa Ranpo stared at the slightly curly hair at the end of the man for a while.

How can a person be stronger than a building fixed with steel bars?

Is it because of the so-called game that the corpse was restored like this?

If so, on what basis is the extent of repair determined?

Edogawa Ranpo frowned in a rare way.

It seems that we need to confirm the situation before Qisui-chan participated in the game.

"I'll be back tomorrow." said the detective who dropped the sentence.

He walked out of the police station, his nose a little uncomfortable from the prolonged stimulation.

Edogawa Ranpo took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.

What if Nana-chan dies before he solves the riddle.

While staring at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, Edogawa Ranpo suddenly thought so.

His reasoning has never been wrong, and there is no mystery in this world that he cannot solve.

To be honest, even though I know that we will meet again after separation, when I think about opening my eyes every day, I will never find Qiho-chan again——

Edogawa Ranpo felt very annoying.

"Don't you need me to take you back?" After a while, the police officer who chased him out asked out of breath.

Edogawa Ranpo sat on the edge of the flower bed: "No need."

"Then you are..."

"Instead of worrying about me, two people ran over just now." Edogawa Ranbu said while holding his chin, "They were carrying bags, and there was a bulge at the bottom of their clothes. They should be carrying guns."

The young police officer froze.

"There is a bank 200 meters away from here. If the time is accurate, the bank's guards should have left with the armored van just three minutes ago."

Mr. Detective reasoned everything calmly, completely ignoring the horrified eyes of passers-by.

The dubious police officer was still hesitating, but there was already a gunshot in the distance.

The birds perched on the branches startled, and at sunset, the whole street fell into chaos.

The police officer on the side reacted and immediately picked up the walkie-talkie, as if the police force was about to be mobilized.

But he was stopped by Edogawa Luanbu's light "it doesn't matter".

"In principle, it only takes 1 second to stun a person, but considering the protection of innocent people, it is calculated as 1 minute."

"Qasui sauce is very strong, and it only takes about 5 minutes to walk over with two grown men."

"So, a total of seven minutes."

The police officer frowned suspiciously, a little unable to keep up with his train of thought: "What are you talking about?"

Edogawa Ranpo stood up and patted the dust off his body.

"It means that in another 5 minutes, someone will send the gangster to you."

Although he didn't say "You are so stupid", the silent police officer had already read the meaning from the other party's eyes.

But robbing a bank is a big deal, and even if the detective is good, you can't take his side...

The police officer's thoughts stopped abruptly at the first light.

The blond-haired girl walked very slowly, with a faint trace of a bullet under the corners of her eyes.

It is worth noting that, as Edogawa Ranpo said, she held a comatose man in each of her hands.

"Qasui-chan likes to worry about people." Edogawa Ranbu said calmly, eyes opened for a moment and then bent in satisfaction, "So no matter what I say, she will come to pick me up."

As if showing off.

...should we applaud?

The young police officer hesitated, and just as he was about to raise his hand, he saw his companion running out of the police station.

The rest of the matter was of course left to the police. After telling the other party her name, Sakino Nanaho let go of the two gangsters.

"You're injured, Nanacui-chan." Edogawa Ranpo said.

Sakino Nanasui: "Isn't it good-looking?"

"No." Edogawa Ranpo said, "It's still very beautiful."

Sakino Nanho was amused by his serious attitude in answering the question.

"Can I hug you?" Edogawa turned his face to ask when he took her hand in a random step.

Sakino Nanho blinked: "Why?"

Edogawa Ranpo: "Because I'm tired."

The little raccoon's head was in the crook of her neck, and his arms were wrapped around her shoulders.

Edogawa ranpo hugged tightly, seemed a little uneasy.

As a result, Qi Ye's expression also softened.

She raised her hand and stroked his head.

"can."

"If it's Mr. Ranpo, you don't have to ask me in advance next time."

As long as you are tired, you can do it anytime.
