Another World Bookstore in Yokohama

Chapter 88

In a fast food restaurant on the outskirts of the city.

Edogawa Ranpo and Ayatsuji pedestrians sat facing each other.

Seeing the boy eating the burger on the dining table, the blond man showed a slight smile.

In fact, he originally planned to take Edogawa Ranpo to eat the food in the luxurious restaurant designated by the Supernatural Secret Service Division.

Although that is generally used by a special person at a specific time, if he asks.Of course they would refuse at first, but if they worked hard for a while, those people would definitely agree.

However, as soon as the meal time came, Ranpo Edogawa yelled for hamburgers and fries, and the pedestrians of Ayatsuji didn't bother to spoil the boy's interest, so they simply asked Tsujimura Mizuki to take them to the nearest fast food restaurant.

"Speaking of which, do we have anything to do in the afternoon? I always feel a little guilty if I keep playing." Edogawa Luanbo swallowed the food in his mouth and said.

"Of course, I still have a few commissions, which are quite interesting. I'll show you when I go back."

"It's really complete." The boy said with emotion, and took a bite of the hamburger after speaking.

Ayatsuji pedestrians smiled slightly.

----

"Oh, I'm so full." Edogawa hugged his chubby belly in disorder and followed Ayatsuji pedestrians.

"It's really enough to eat."

Ayatsuji pedestrians agreed.

"The hamburger is really delicious, as well as the French fries, chicken drumsticks, and the refreshing soda. It's absolutely amazing!" The boy gave a thumbs up.

"Even Ayatsuji, you eat too little." There was only a glass of Coke and a hamburger.

"Well... I ate something in the morning."

"What what? What to eat?" The boy pricked up his ears when he heard 'eat'.

"Fruit." Ayatsuji pedestrian said.

"Oh......"

Edogawa Ranpo was instantly bored.

"It has arrived."

Tsujimura Fukatsuki, who led the way at the front, said.

By the way, he helped to open the door.

【Koyayatsuji Office】

The office is located on the spacious streets of Yokohama, but in the suburbs, there are not many people.Because it is located between Yokohama and Tokyo.

Ayatsuji pedestrians and Edogawa walked into the office in disorder, and then saw a woman sitting inside.

"It looks like there was an accident." Ayatsuji pedestrian turned his head to look at Edogawa Ranpo.

But looking at the boy's eyes widened.

Is an acquaintance?

With that in mind, Ayatsuji pedestrian walked into the room.

"You wait here first." He said to Edogawa Ranpo.

-

Ayatsuji pedestrian sat on the chair in the center, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I'm a detective from the small Ayatsuji office, and my name is Ayatsuji pedestrian."

"May I ask what you want to entrust?"

"I, I'm looking for someone." The woman said, her face was very flustered.

"Really?" Ayatsuji pedestrian smiled, "but I thought ma'am, your idea should not be this, or what you want to entrust is not this."

The woman who was thinking of words suddenly froze.

"Mr. Ayatsuji, what are you talking about," she forced a smile, "I'm not looking for someone or what?"

"You are here to leave a token." Ayatsuji pedestrian said.

"Judging from the paleness of your complexion, it should be someone who has passed away for many years."

"Although I don't know how you were able to appear in front of me with this healthy appearance. But that's not the point, the point is what you want to do, that is, what you want to entrust." Ayatsuji pedestrians followed Gradually speaking.

"To leave something for someone, right?"

The woman hangs her head.

Ayatsuji pedestrians didn't say any more, because that would be a kind of aggressive, so although good results can be obtained, the kid outside the door may not be happy.

-

[Why is this person here? 】

[Why is this person, is she still alive? 】

【Are they still alive? 】

[Then why didn't you come back to see him? 】

Standing quietly outside the door, Edogawa Ranpo had tears in his eyes.

He just came to find friends to play, so he never expected to encounter such a scene.This kind of scene made him so helpless.

The door in front of him was half-closed specially by Ayatsuji Pedestrian, but Ranpo Edogawa felt as if his ears and eyes were sealed, he couldn't hear the chattering voice, and he didn't want to look into the room through the crack of the door. scene.

Or even if you want to see, your eyes are covered with tears and you can't see clearly.

Suddenly there was a shout from inside the door.

"Ranbu, come in."

It was the voice of Ayatsuji pedestrian.

Normally this voice would make him laugh happily, but now he is extremely frightened.

The man let him in.

No.

Although I thought so in my heart, my body moved actively, and I pushed open the door and walked in.

The boy walked in smoothly step by step.

Then, Edogawa Ranpo saw the wide eyes of the woman on the opposite side.

"Mom," he called.

in the hospital.

Nakajima Atsushi and Kunikida Doppo came back together, holding a thermos bucket in their hands, which contained meals for Izumi Kyoka.

Then find the house number again and walk in.

"Kyoka-chan, we're back!" Atsushi Nakajima shouted.

"Well, welcome." The girl smiled faintly.

"I also went to the Orange House to buy a soup tofu for Jinghuajiang."

"Wow~" Quan Jinghua's eyes glowed.

While talking, Atsushi Nakajima walked forward.

Walked to Quan Jinghua's bed familiarly, put the thermos bucket on the bedside table, and then sat on the bed behind her wearily.

Atsushi Nakajima lay down lazily.

"I'm really exhausted~~"

And when he just lay down, as if he just realized it, Quan Jinghua suddenly shouted: "Wait, Dun, don't lie down!"

Nakajima Atsushi who has been lying down: ...

He felt a soft touch.

There are people here! !

Atsushi Nakajima jumped up.

"This, this is—Mr. Dazai!"

He saw the face on the head of the bed.

**

"What are you calling for? I heard your voice from outside the door." Kunikida, who had just paid the hospitalization fee, opened the door and came in with a reprimand.

"Mr. Kunikida—" Atsushi Nakajima's voice was resentful.

"What's the matter?"

"I did something wrong."

"Of course, the hospital is not allowed to yell."

"It's not that, Kunikida-san. I was lying on top of Dazai-san just now." Atsushi Nakajima scratched his nose.

Kunikida Doppo:?

"What Dazai?" the man asked.

Very good, I caught the key point at once.

Atsushi Nakajima blinked and pointed to the bed below.

"..."

Kunikida Doppo approached step by step, and when he stood at the head of the bed, he saw Osamu Dazai's sleeping face.

"Uh----"

He suddenly felt suffocated.

Why is this person here, should it be a coincidence or a coincidence.

The next moment, Kunikida Doppo suddenly thought of a question: "Is Dazai also injured?"

And probably a gunshot wound.

how so......

The man stretched out his hand to remove the quilt covering Osamu Dazai's body, and wanted to see where the other party was injured.

Then the wrist was grabbed.

The strength is not great.

Kunikida turned his head to look at Dokpo.

It's Osamu Dazai.

"Hey, Kunikida-kun, you don't mean to insult me! It's really scary!" Osamu Dazai tried his best to make an exaggerated expression, but because the anesthetic hadn't worn off yet, it seemed that the muscles on his face moved like It's making faces.

"you're awake?"

Kunikida Doppo doesn't care much about Dazai Osamu because he is used to playing tricks in his daily life.

"I was crushed awake when Ton-kun was lying on top of me—"

Osamu Dazai sighed: "I don't want to experience that kind of weight again in my life."

Atsushi Nakajima, who was sitting on the edge of the Izumi Kyo flower bed, scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Okay, let's get down to business. Why are you here?" Kunikida Doppo asked directly.

"As you can see, hurt."

Osamu Dazai pointed to a bulging spot on his arm, which was tightly bandaged.

"Ah, I didn't notice."

"That's true,"

"After all, you are usually covered in bandages."

Osamu Dazai: ...

The smile gradually disappeared.

"Kunikida-kun—" the man mourned.

On the opposite side, Kunikida Doppo tried his best not to roll his eyes.

Although Osamu Dazai was out of tune, he quickly became serious.

He talks about what happened before.

The other three also listened carefully.

Oh, by the way, there is also a three-colored cat wagging its tail on the window, listening carefully.Just don't know how it got in.

"—Anyway, I saw that person."

"At the same time, attack two people..." Kunikida Doppo lowered his head and murmured.

"Two people?"

"Well, didn't you notice? The one next to the bed is Jinghua."

Dazai turned his head and looked over.

Seeing Quan Jinghua smiling and waving to him.

"It was the waist that was hurt," Kunikida Doppo said.

The man's lips pursed, and after a moment of silence he said, "I seem to understand a little bit."

"Understand what?"

"He's taking revenge."

"Verlaine?"

"Well," Osamu Dazai smiled, as if he had thought of something, "He still likes to play tricks so much, and this time he played me around again."

"He has found my new place of concern this time, and he knows that this will not make me too angry, or in other words, it will not touch my bottom line."

Osamu Dazai looked at Atsushi Nakajima who pursed his lips and lowered his head.

"After all, he just fired two shots. What we, I did, was much uglier than that."

Atsushi Nakajima's shoulders suddenly slumped behind him.

So they are being angered?

——And the reason for the anger is Dazai-san.

Suddenly there was no reason to be angry.

Because Mr. Dazai did it at the beginning... He didn't know what Mr. Dazai did at that time, but when he thought about it... his past occupation was the mafia——

Quan Jinghua hugged the thermos bucket and ate mouthfuls, seemingly not caring about the anxious atmosphere over there.

Blonde man looks at the clock on the wall.

"It's [-]:[-]. That Mr. Paul used his power for us, saying that we will meet Verlaine at four o'clock in the afternoon."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Osamu Dazai, "Is it credible?"

"Of course," the man laughed, "that person is really looking for someone seriously, so there's no need to doubt his motives. And he does have supernatural powers."

"He is not Verlaine, but he must have some kind of special relationship with Verlaine. It is not the kind of interpersonal relationship, but a physical or spiritual connection."

As he said that, Osamu Dazai sighed: "Unfortunately, until now I don't quite know what his supernatural power is."

"Do you look alike?" Kunikida Doppo asked suddenly.

Osamu Dazai shook his head, and then sighed loudly under the eyes of several people:

"The man I saw, he had beautiful flowing red hair—"

Kunikida Doppo:  …

Atsushi Nakajima:  …

The author has something to say: Now Dun Dun is very unconfident, very unconfident. The specific manifestation is that he has learned a lot from Xuan Yin, but he has never known or dared to show it.

The reason is lack of self-confidence. After all, he didn't take the first step, and now he only thinks that he has improved his force.

(Dun is from the academic school, contact the elementary school and high school, because it is all basic things, you know what it is and can do it in a certain way, but you are a little at a loss when it comes to other specific scenes. Analogy Pinyin.)

Trying to explain.
