[Comprehensive] How to use superpowers if you don't learn well

In the past few hours, Edogawa Ranpo suddenly discovered something.

That thing was that when he found out that Morino Midori was not around, the detective agency's office always seemed to be very clean.

Although described in this way, people who don't know Morino Green may think that she is a very noisy girl.But when Luanbu looked around in any place where he could sit or lie down in the room and didn't see the golden furry head, he felt this sense of loneliness for no reason.

Without the individual, the room looks much bigger.

Specifically why, Luan Bu can't say.

However, even the auto chess and crossword puzzles on the table were not as fun as when Morino was around, so he could only shake off the pencil that had been sharpened to a small piece, like a flower emerging after the rain. Mushroom-like, growing in the chair.

so boring.He stared out the window, and he could still see the lights and computer screens still on in the office building next door, which were very close together.

It's so slow... He looked at the clock hanging on the wall again, two hours and seventeen minutes had passed since Kunikida and Hawkes went out.

In fact, Morino Midori doesn't like watching movies.Even though she has been in Yokohama for so long, she has never asked to go to the cinema.

So when Ranpo told Kunikida and Hawks to "go to the drive-in to find her", of course, they all looked suspicious, then looked at him silently and asked wordlessly "why did she go there" .

"Intuition," he said.

But in the bottom of Luanbu's heart, if this place name can be said, there is still some basis for it.

Lively places often make people aware of their own loneliness.And if you want to prove that you can live well without others, eating hot pot alone and going to the movies alone should be the best choice.Because when the movie is over and the soup pot bottoms out, they will be able to derive a kind of far-fetched and numb psychological satisfaction from their own safety.

Be satisfied with the status quo, be satisfied with the present, and tell yourself that you can live well even so.

Hawkes didn't know the intelligence of the famous detective, so he patted Kunikida on the shoulder resignedly and said, "Let's look for it along the way."

After hearing this, Luanbu was not angry, he shrugged and turned to the page with crossword puzzles in the newspaper.

Anyway, there are a lot of idiots in the world, and there are a lot of people pretending to be asleep who can't wake up. He won't be angry because his suggestion is not adopted by idiots.Besides, whether Hawkes and Kunikida will blow in the cold winter night for several hours has nothing to do with Edogawa Ranpo.

He only cares about when Sen Yelu will come back.

Because it's past midnight, if she doesn't come back, new newspapers will be delivered after a night's sleep.

The morning paper exuding a strong smell of ink was spread out on the desk by Kunikida, the pencils in their hands were sharpened shorter than yesterday, the puzzles of the crosswords were new, and the answers were naturally revealed day by day Changing the transformation, it is Morino Green who is lying on the sofa sleeping on the sofa or Morino Green yesterday that can make Chaobu feel bored.

Like a book that stops writing halfway through.

He read her from beginning to end, with a little bit of hope, a concern that was not easy to let go, and wanted to see what she would look like tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.

However, as soon as a new day comes, when he opens the door of the office, his eyes pass over a few desks, and he sees Sen Yelu lying on the sofa again, sleeping in the dark, the sun and the moon are dark, probably even the shaking of the earth will not disturb her At that time, the little hope in his heart that he wanted to see the follow-up was snuffed out by her again.

When the knock on the door sounded, Luanbu was about to fall asleep, and he shivered violently in the room where the heating was fully turned on.

It was dark now.Office buildings are too close to each other, and there is still light pollution in the city. If you stick your head out of the window, you cannot see the stars and moon in the sky.

Fukuzawa Yukichi rubbed the center of his brows, got up and opened the door.After he turned sideways to make way, Luanbu could clearly see the little girl who was dozing off in Hawkes' arms.She was wrapped in Kunikida's long trench coat.

If the windbreaker wasn't black, the blond hair exposed would be enough to make Luanbu think of unpeeled corn stalks.

The weary Kunikida followed behind them, trying to straighten her head from Hawkes' shoulder from time to time.

Being in a bliss does not know the bliss.

Ranbu suddenly remembered such a sentence.

Compared to a guy with nothing, Morino Green is like a rich man who has everything.

She should be content.

As long as she knows how to be content, she will be much happier.

But no rich man would dislike his rich capital.

And there is no child who would not be happy to receive a bigger and better gift than others.

She may even feel jealous, sad and angry, and feel inferior because "her own is not as good as others".

It's pathetic and funny.

The self-rescue spider silk is in front of my eyes and I don't even bother to reach out to touch it. No wonder Osamu Dazai compares her with Kentado.

"I said it's a drive-in movie theater, you don't believe me." He hummed dissatisfiedly, and didn't let go of his aggressive airs until he saw the embarrassing look on Kunikida's face, and then asked, "Is she asleep?"

Kunikida nodded, and he stood there in a daze.It took a while to remember that Hawkes should have put Morino on the sofa.

Not driving out was the biggest mistake, and it was difficult to get a taxi in the middle of the night, and they blew the wind all the way back.Less than 300 meters away from the drive-in theater, Sen Yelu sat down along the road and clamored for a hug, saying that he wanted to sleep.

Kunikida, who originally planned to let her suffer for herself, remained calm and even watched with cold eyes.

However, Hawks opened his arms towards Mori Yelu, and said that it was just this time, and it would not be an example.

And then it was Morino Midori nestling in Hawks' arms, sticking out her tongue at Kunikida making a face.

I'm afraid I didn't get angry at the low-burning irascible youth.

After he finished complaining to Chaobu, his tone finally softened. Hawks had already gently put Sen Yelu on the sofa where she lay most often.

It is worth mentioning that Morino Green's relationship with this sofa may be better than her relationship with her own bed.

The reason is naturally that she spends more time with this sofa.

And she seems to spend a lot of time with Hawkes.

Compared with getting along for three or two months, more than half a year is already another order of magnitude.

It is well known that Morino is afraid of the cold.Hawks looks like he wants to say goodbye to her, but even the well-spoken winged hero doesn't seem to be able to say anything to the cornstalks.

Before he left, he exchanged greetings with Fukuzawa Yukichi, patted Kunikida on the shoulder, and took another look at Ranpo.

There are many things.

Luanbu snorted, remained calm on the surface, and happily sent away the unexpected guest from the bottom of his heart.

Morino Green's supervision period is half a year.

Just like Luanbu would subconsciously look at the sofa when he was bored.

Kunikida also developed the habit of checking at regular intervals to see if Morino Midori had kicked off the blanket covering her during the two months after joining the job.

And the appearance of Hawks... Although he has never expressed any intention to end the supervision period early, everyone knows that, sooner or later, Sen Yelu will return to school.

Thinking of this, Luanbu frowned and stood up from the office chair, suddenly yelling, "I'm going back to the dormitory to sleep!"

After speaking, he left, as if he was afraid of being entangled by something, and as if he was afraid that he might be trapped in a vortex from which he could not get out.

"...I just said the same thing as the handsome knight's declaration this afternoon." In addition to Morino Midori's laziness and self-willedness, what Kunikida is about to get used to is also the fickleness of Ranpo.Fukuzawa Yukichi was not surprised by this, he gathered the documents on the table, bid farewell to Kunikida, and then left unhurriedly.

This office is not too big, even a bit crowded, and the interior decoration is limited to the most basic painting when the office building is completed.

The arrival of Morino Green, coupled with the planned expansion of enrollment, gave Fukuzawa Yukichi the idea of ​​relocation.Unfortunately, no suitable place has been found.

And after the president and the mainstay of the club left, the room became empty again.Kunikida's gaze slid across the snow-white wall, and he felt cold for no reason even though the heater was still on.It wasn't until he found a palm-sized oil stain on the wall next to his desk that this coolness was shattered by a certain piece of memory.

That was one day, Morino Midori and Ranpo were grabbing the last tube of white radish left in the oden.

In fact, the taste of the whole oden was not good, and the white radish was not boiled, but the two children were on the fence, and the two pairs of chopsticks were fighting in the lunch box, as if they would die if they could not eat this piece of radish. .

Fukuzawa Yukichi happened to be absent, and the youngest rookie, Kunikida, had no say in the war.He couldn't stop it, he could only watch helplessly as they overturned the lunch box during the dispute, the white radish drew an elegant parabola in mid-air, and hit the wall next to his desk.

Thinking about it made me feel tired... He wiped his face vigorously, walked to the sofa, and peeled off the wild green that was wrapped in his clothes.

As soon as her exposed forehead felt the temperature difference, she squirmed and shrank into her clothes.

People, not only can't wake up people who pretend to be asleep, but also can't wake up people who want to stay in bed.

Although it was almost one o'clock in the morning, which was far from Kunikida's work and rest time, he still had to find a way to get this girl back.

What has not been said is that since Kunikida joined the job, Morino Midori has moved to his house.It is called convenient supervision, but in fact, it is because she is tired of living in hotels, and complains about the hotel's security regulations - takeaways cannot be delivered to the door of the room - to criticize all over.

"Wake up, Midori. Get up and go back." Kunikida's palm lightly landed on her head, and it took more than ten seconds to be scratched by Morino Midori.The little girl was furious when she got up, and after such a tossing, she didn't feel cold anymore, so she quickly got up from the sofa, and sat back impatiently.

Perhaps because of the cold wind that blew all night, her breathing became a little suffocated, and her lips were dry.Maybe he felt that this was not pitiful enough, and he sniffed vigorously, as if he was afraid that Kunikida would not hear him.

Kunikida told himself in his heart that he must not give in to her softheartedly.

In fact, he never considered himself a good-natured person, or even a bad temper.It is also for this reason that Kunikida has become the "red ghost teacher" who makes many students fearful.

Of course, there are also doubts about whether they are suitable to be teachers of educating children, but fortunately, these problems have passed.In the work he is doing now, a large part of the focus needs to be on Sen Yelu.

For Kunikida, taking care of Morino Midori doesn't need to be so laborious.She was born on the March 16rd Girl's Day when peach blossoms are in full bloom and full of blessings.Soon to be [-] is a big kid.

But a task is a task, and he still owes Mori Yelu a great favor.To be precise, it is a life-saving grace.Although the incident was caused by her, it was these slender arms that were resting on his neck at the moment that pulled Kunikida out from under the fangs of Akutagawa Ryunosuke Rashomon.

Morino Midori hummed on Kunikida's back, the tune sounded weird, maybe she made it up herself.But all in all, she seemed to be in a good mood now, Kunikida couldn't hold back, and carefully asked the question that had been pent up in his mind all night, "What did you talk to Hawkes just now?"

"Just now?"

"When I came back from the movie theater."

"Ah...he asked me if I haven't changed my mind yet." When talking about this topic, she suddenly became a little absent-minded, and her humming sound also became quieter.

Kunikida didn't know much about it, but he sort of guessed what the so-called idea was.

"Xiongying's wish after graduation?"

"Ah."

"Green, don't you want to be a hero?"

"I don't want to."

"Bar?"

"I don't know..." Even though the answer was so vague, she had no intention of avoiding it, and instead asked Kunikida, "Why do they all want to be heroes?"

"Why do you want to be a hero if you don't want to be a hero?"

"Hawks asked me to go. Because you think, my ability is so powerful, so I must be very powerful after becoming a hero."

She does have the capital to say such self-proclaimed words, and she often praises herself in this way.Especially when she encounters a problem that makes Kunikida feel difficult but she can easily solve the answer, she will show a very proud look.

However, Kunikida didn't follow her words to praise her as usual, but asked instead: "Then, have you thought about becoming a hero in the future?"

Kunikida had Morino Midori behind his back, so he couldn't see her eyes, otherwise he really wanted to see what kind of expression she would use to answer this question.

After all, she seemed to be muddling along every day.

Suddenly talking about ideals, future, plans, etc., even if you are as smart as Senyelu, you will probably feel confused, right?

"...Yes." She was unexpectedly straightforward, although she was very reluctant, but she still admitted, "Yes."

"Is there actually?!"

"Sure! If you don't believe me, try going to Xiongying to study! Everyone wants to be a hero or a madman!" She began to argue, or to put it bluntly, "I once took a class in information science... the teacher asked We make ourselves heroes."

"What did you get up?"

"...MIDORI."

"What?" Kunikida asked again in disbelief.

"MIDORI!!!"

Isn't that your own name!Kunikida made a slip of the tongue, and could only support her on his back.

"It's so stupid to think about it now..." She muttered regretfully again, "Obviously I don't want to be a hero..."

"Isn't it mandatory homework?"

"No."

"So naming is all voluntary?"

"... so what."

"No, didn't you say you didn't want to be a hero?"

"I don't want to...but they are all together."

"So you're following suit?"

"I said no!" Morino Midori was annoyed, and kicked Kunikida's outer thigh hard, the pain made him hiss, "Just...they seem to be yearning for it."

"It seems to be really happy to be a hero, maybe even I can be a good one..."

"Then why don't you try? It's not difficult for you to be a hero anyway?"

"It's not difficult—but why should I use my power for others?"

Kunikida choked again, feeling powerless against her contradictory thoughts, which were still extremely deep.

After not hearing him for a long time, Midori Morino snorted, "Mr. Kunikida also thinks my thoughts are weird and selfish?"

"I don't feel selfish. How you use your abilities is your own right." He sighed, "But is it strange..."

As if having two independent personalities with different opinions in all aspects is holding a debate in her mind, many of Morino Green's thoughts have corresponding reasons that can prevent her from acting.

"Is it just me who is weird?" She asked in a low voice, almost whispering, "It could be that this world is weird, right?"

"Maybe. But you live in this world." Kunikida said, "Mountains are not for people, only people can go for mountains. Most people can only live their lives in obedience to the trend, the price of wanting to be 'special' But it's tall—help me hold my glasses."

Morino Green stretched out his hand and pushed his mirror frame, and after a while, he whispered, "...Mr. Ranpo is the best."

"Huh? Why did you say this all of a sudden?"

"Because he knows that I don't want to be a hero and he won't be surprised!"

"I didn't say that!"

"Even if you didn't finish what you just said, I know you think my thoughts are strange!"

"It's one thing to think it's strange, but it's another thing to say whether you agree with it or not!"

"Who cares about you! Anyway, Mr. Ranpo is the best! The president is second best! Mr. Kunikida is at the bottom!"

This is probably the so-called word-for-word punishment.

"...you can say whatever you want." Kunikida was so haggard.

He never thought that one day he would be reduced to the bottom of the pyramid, and he would be overwhelmed by Mr. Ranpo, who was grabbing snacks with Sen Yelv every day.

Morino Midori hummed the song again, and then she seemed to remember something, and muttered softly on Kunikida's shoulder: "But I have a self-consciousness that is different from everyone else."

"After all, I'm a genius..."

Her low voice entered Kunikida's ears together with the sea breeze blowing into the city, and for some reason it made him a little uncomfortable.He silently carried Sen Yelu on his back and continued walking for tens of meters, another gust of wind brushed the young man's cheeks, taking away a lot of temperature, and he was slow to realize what was the difference.

This self-proclaimed statement... doesn't sound bad at all.

It's not too wild green.She is only particularly proud, even conceited, where she can show off her intelligence.

But now, how should I put it... Kunikida hadn't thought that one day he would use this word to describe the ugliest kid in his mind.

He heard the meaning of inferiority from Morino Green's words.And more than that.

So far, Morino Midori has never shown such a fragile side in front of anyone... Rather, it is precisely because Kunikida can't see it, that's why she can be so upright and so veiled, lying on his shoulder and expressing dissatisfaction. Like complaining about complaining.

It's just like a child who didn't win a fight outside... But who in this world can beat Sen Yelu?

Kunikida thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer.Even the loop she wore around her neck had been removed from the electric shock paralysis function.

Her anomaly even made the young man think "was it really bullied by someone in the movie theater just now?"

But thinking about it this way, he had a rough answer in his heart.

Because that Zhongyuan Zhongye is also there.

The Nakahara Nakahara who made Morino Green lay on the sofa and howled "Why can't I?" was also there.

Kunikida paused, he wanted to put Morino Midori down.But Sen Yelu was clinging to his shoulders and wrapping his neck around his neck like a koala.Like hugging a piece of driftwood.

He is definitely not the only one she can rely on, but he is the only person she can rely on at this moment.

So Kunikida thought about it, and had no choice but to say sincerely, "Of course you are a genius."

He hoped that his sincerity would be received by Morino Green.At least no matter how others are, in his heart she is always a unique genius child.

Enviable, majestic, powerful, with many minor flaws, who haven't had time to hurt anyone, and don't want to hurt anyone——

"green."

He stopped suddenly, pointing to a claw machine with lights still on on the side of the street.

"Do you want a doll?"

Inside the glass window lies a puppet bear whose whole body is stitched together with fabrics of different textures and patterns.

One of its eyes is a hemispherical tortoise shell, the other is an oblate button, and its smile is as cute as all the doll bears.

Morino Lv glanced at him, "Nothing to show courtesy."

"Sometimes I really want to pry your brain open to see what's inside... This is a reward for you!" Kunikida was annoyed by her out-of-the-box thinking and conspiracy theories.

"What's the reward?"

"Reward genius."

The author has something to say: Originally, I wanted to update the Third Daughter's Day in March, and Morino Green's birthday was originally scheduled for this day.But there are too many blessings on this day hahahaha, I always feel that March [-]th, which is one day later, would be more suitable for her.
