[Comprehensive] The daily notes of the owner of a Chinese medicine shop

Because of the entrustment of the very unfriendly human who was kicked out by Baizhi last time, she was said to be in trouble for the armed detective agency established to deal with dangerous affairs that cannot be relied on by the army or the police.

Bai Zhi knew a little about the Armed Detective Agency before.

Perhaps it was due to various reasons for moving in the past. After she learned that there was an illegal port mafia in Yokohama, she went to inquire about it, and then found out about the Armed Detective Agency.

It is said that they are all groups of supernatural beings.

She is curious about how easily humans in this world accept supernatural beings.After all, in the history she has experienced, most of the human beings are still a group of people who have the idea of ​​"if they are not my race, their hearts must be different".People with powers beyond their imagination are never recognized as their kind.

Bai Zhi looked at the two young people who came in.

They also looked at her at the same time.

"Are you the owner of this pet shop?"

It was a young man with pigtails, looking very serious.He pushed back his glasses and looked at me with scrutiny and confusion.

The other is a tall, thin young man with a rough look, a sand-colored coat and a Western-style cardigan shirt.The black messy hair was unmanaged, but it was also beautiful.Bai Zhi was a little concerned about the bandage on his hand.

He looked around the pet shop as soon as he came in and seemed interested in it.

"No, Kunikida-kun! This lady is not the owner!"

Listening to the tall and thin young man's explanation of being called "Kunikida-kun", Bai Zhi couldn't help feeling overwhelmed by the next development.This is obviously not a human being who is easy to fool.

"Actually, what this gentleman said is correct. I am the owner of the Baizhi Chinese Medicine Store. The owner of the pet store went to the United States due to something, so I will temporarily replace the store for him."

The young man wearing glasses looked a little impatient.

There was about a minute or so between Bai Zhi's answer and his previous question.

Although the tall and thin young man had already answered on her behalf, did the waiting of more than a minute make him feel annoyed?

"Let me just say, the owner of this shop must have a good relationship with Miss Bai Zhi, right?" The slovenly young man approached with a smile.

"It's very good, I can't talk about it, but it's a friend I haven't seen for many years."

"I haven't seen you for many years? Miss Bai Zhi still looks young and beautiful. It's obviously inappropriate to use this word, right?"

"Is it inappropriate? I don't think so," Bai Zhi clasped his hands, "Because it's true that we haven't seen each other for many years."

"Speaking of which, the two of you haven't introduced yourself yet. This shop is a pet shop. If necessary, you can choose the pet you want, or you can make any requests. This shop will try its best to meet the needs of customers."

——Count D should thank me, after all, I am so dedicated to promoting the services of the pet store to the customers who come here.

Feeling as if the deal was about to be completed, Bai Zhi's mood improved a little bit.

"That's right, Kunikida-kun. We should introduce ourselves first instead of asking Ms. Bai Zhi directly." The black-haired young man suddenly realized that he clapped his fists, and then patted the young man with glasses heavily on the shoulder.

The young man with eyes exploded and said, "It's not because of you, Dazai! Otherwise, my steps will be perfect!"

"Oh really, Kunikida-kun, you're shirking responsibility again."

When the black-haired young man said it, the young man with glasses seemed to have a tendency to blow his hair again.

Bai Zhi felt a little helpless watching the dispute between the two.

"Two guests, if you don't want to buy a pet, please don't disturb our business."

As soon as her words came out, the young man with glasses reacted.He breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his gaze to her again.

"We are from the Armed Detective Agency. In Shimokuni Kida, the one who makes people angry is Dazai Osamu. This time, I received a commission from a pet cannibalism yesterday. According to the client's confirmation, the pet cannibalism is in the I bought it in your store, and claimed that your store is suspected of selling rare animals."

Speaking of this, Kunikida looked at Bai Zhi's eyes with some sympathy.

"Actually, we knew a little bit about this pet store before we came here. In less than three months since we moved here, we have received several related complaints, saying that this pet store is doing illegal underground shopping. Service activities..."

This time he looked at her as if he regretted that she "made friends carelessly"...

"If this is true, then Miss Bai Zhi's situation is in danger."

Bai Zhi didn't know where his conclusion came from.

"Trafficking precious animals? Illegal underground service activities... What a serious crime! Excuse me, how do you explain it?"

Earl's pet shop has illegal underground service activities?

She is really curious about where it came from... As for the sale of rare animals, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

"About this, actually..." The serious Kunikida-kun pushed his glasses, intending to explain all the good things he investigated earlier.But just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the young man who came with him.

A young man named Dazai squatted down, teasing the bird in the cage.

It was a blue bird, and it ignored the young man's teasing.

"Hey Miss Baizhi, what kind of bird is this?"

The young man who tilted his head asked.

"This is the blue bird."

"Hey Dazai! I'm not here to tease the birds!" Kunikida-kun saw Dazai's laid-back attitude, and suddenly became a little anxious.

And Dazai is obviously used to Kunikida's exasperated tone.

"Look, Kunikida-kun, its beak is so sharp, it can be said to be no less than a dagger! Just poke it into the heart quickly, and it can stop the blood flow in less than a second, and people can't feel the pain. In an instant, he died. It is even said that in the ancient times of the Celestial Dynasty, the people of the Celestial Dynasty would use the beaks of birds to make sharp hidden weapons! One hit will kill you!"

"Is that true!" Kunikida-kun exclaimed in surprise, and quickly took notes in the notebook he was carrying, and even squatted down with Dazai to observe the blue bird in the cage.

Bai Zhi swears, she saw contempt in Miss Qingniao's eyes.

"Ahem, two gentlemen. Miss Blue Bird's beak can't quickly pierce a human heart and cause human death." She explained with a sigh.

"Eh? Is that so?" Mr. Dazai's tone seemed a bit regretful. "I'm still looking forward to it. This way of dying can definitely be called a miracle, right?"

"Dazai!" Kunikida-kun, realizing that he was being fooled, raised his voice.

"Be safe and don't be impatient, Kunikida-kun." Mr. Dazai still had a playful smile on his face. "Isn't the purpose of our visit this time is the pet cannibalism incident? It is not a small project to carefully observe the pets in the pet shop. After all, who knows what kind of sharp and terrifying teeth will be hidden under the cute and charming appearance ?”

Kunikida-kun heard Mr. Dazai's words, and then asked Baizhi, "Can we take a look?"

Bai Zhi showed a smile, even she herself didn't realize whether she was looking forward to something in her heart.

"Please feel free, and please be safe."

Too much time has been wasted, Miss Qingniao is already very impatient, Bai Zhi lifts the cage and walks to the inner room.Kunikida-kun and Mr. Dazai said they wanted to take a casual look, but they didn't go into the inner room, but just observed from the outside.

The phone at the front desk rang suddenly, Bai Zhi put down the cage, and hurried out to answer the phone.

"Hello, this is Earl D's Pet Shop."

[Your Highness Bai Zhi. 】

It's Earl D.

【That's right, Mrs. Melissa is about to give birth.I forgot to tell you before I left...] Mrs. Melissa that Earl D said is a very noble lady.She is a descendant of Baimao and Teng Snake in ancient times, and now she is the only remaining descendant in the world.Her production is very important to the pet shop!

Even she had to worry.

As a good friend of Bai Zhen and Teng Snake back then, Bai Zhi couldn't help feeling like an elder towards their descendants.

At this time, Ah Tian came back from the outside, and he was still dressed so casually.

"Any visitor?" he saw the two gentlemen ask.

As soon as he came in, it seemed as if a ray of light had been sprinkled on him.

His eyes are sparkling, and his temperament is unbelievably outstanding.

Kunikida and Dazai were also taken aback.

"Mr. Kunikida and Mr. Dazai, these two are here to investigate the incident of pet cannibalism. Ah Tian, ​​do you remember who sold the pet to you during this time?"

"How can I remember clearly?"

"We were careless. The client in this case is not the person who bought the pet." Mr. Kunikida explained, and then told them about the whole incident.

That's what happened:

Yesterday afternoon, a young man in his twenties came to the Armed Detective Agency, claiming that his neighbor had been attacked by a pet he bought.He had gone to the police before, but no blood was found at the neighbor's house, so the case was being treated as a missing person.But unwilling, he came to the Armed Detective Agency for help.Because he found that the neighbor hadn't gone out for several days, and he didn't even show up with the pet he bought.

The young man plausibly claimed that he saw it with his own eyes.It's a pity that he was in a state of shock at the time, and he didn't have time to take pictures of the evidence, and the pet disappeared.Although he had seen scenes of pets committing crimes, he couldn't describe the pet youth in detail.Mr. Kunikida, who received him, naturally had great doubts about the young man's remarks.

However, they still took the case.

Because, there is another thing related to animals during this period.That is the "man-eating tiger" that caused riots in Yokohama. It cannot be ruled out that the pet that eats people is the "man-eating tiger".

So they came to the store.

"Man-eating tiger? There are no such dangerous animals in this shop."

Ah Tian came out from the inner room, glanced at Bai Zhi, and said, "Really, the Earl is not here, no matter how many things there are, Ah Zhi can't make the decision."

"I've been talking about Earl Earl, hey, is the owner of this store really Earl?" Mr. Dazai asked curiously.

"Of course it is."

……

Kunikida-kun and Dazai-san left without getting the answer they wanted.

"Tsk, I didn't ask anything in the end." Mr. Kunikida was a little irritable.

"Is there nothing..." Dazai smiled lowly, "Didn't Mr. Kunikida feel it?"

"what?"

"Smell. This pet shop is full of beasts~"

Today's Kunikida still cannot understand Osamu Dazai's heart.

His plausible words may imply a crucial link.However, his casual appearance really made him anxious.

This guy……

Still so infuriating!

"Are you going now?"

Hearing Ah Tian's question, Bai Zhi nodded.

"It's getting late, and I'll leave the rest to you."

After packing up her things, Bai Zhi returned to the place where she lived temporarily.

But before going to bed, she has to consider whether to move again.
