Another World Bookstore in Yokohama

Chapter 87

In the Armed Detective Agency.

In front of Edogawa Ranpo was a disposable paper cup, which contained the water he had just received.

In his hand, he held a piece of talisman in the package that Ayatsuji pedestrian sent to the detective agency. According to what the man said at the time, he put the talisman into the cup.

Take it out again, put your hands together and meditate in your heart.

【I'm going to Ayatsuji pedestrian's place】*3

Then there was a "swoosh", and there was no one in the place where Edogawa Ranpo was originally.

Just left a glass of clear water on the table and the letter Edogawa Ranpo had prepared at the beginning.

——"Mr. Ranpo!"

Suddenly there was a loud call from outside the door, and then Atsushi Nakajima opened the door and came in.

Looking at the empty room, the boy showed a blank face.

"Ugh?"

"Where's Mr. Ranpo?"

"No one?" Kunikida Doppo followed closely, and Atsushi Nakajima made room for the man to go in, "Impossible, I saw the snacks Mr. Ranpo just bought at the door. And no matter what, it's impossible now go out."

"It's eleven o'clock." Atsushi Nakajima checked the time.

"Well, if there is no mission, and if there is nothing special, Mr. Ranpo will stay in the detective agency from 10:30 to 11:30 in the morning." (Private setting)

"Hey, is that so? I haven't even noticed."

"Really, Ranpo-san is not here, and Dazai is not here, so I have to think of other ways. Alas, I am not good at planning." Kunikida Doppo sighed.

At this time, Atsushi Nakajima suddenly thought of someone, his eyes lit up and he was about to say, "Do you want to ask?" Akutagawa.

Wait, why did the detective agency call on the Port Mafia?How did he come up with this idea.

"Ask who?"

"Nothing, nothing."

Ah, what a shame!

"Anyway, the ability to modify the past is too buggy. If the other party wants to, they can never meet again," Kunikida Doppo sighed, "How do I find it?"

"Don't be discouraged, Mr. Kunikida! Believe, there are always more solutions than problems." Atsushi Nakajima said encouragingly.

"That's it...! I have an idea."

Thinking of something suddenly, Kunikida Doppo's eyes lit up.

"what?"

"Although it won't be used unless it is absolutely necessary, I want to ask that Mr. Paul."

"Borrow his supernatural power?" Atsushi Nakajima asked.

"Well, the other party also has the ability of time and space, and then it is estimated that it will produce a corresponding singularity. In this way, there is a clue, but," Kunikida Doppo pursed his lips, "I don't know if the other party is willing."

The man took out his phone and opened the map.

"Now they are in the hospital, not far away, and they will arrive soon."

----

"Ask my wishes?"

In the hospital, Paul, who was sitting on the bed next to Quan Jinghua, smiled arrogantly.

"I just said, you will definitely ask me~" Looking at the tense look of the blond man opposite, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will help, after all, he is the person I am looking for."

"That..."

"Just watch it~"

Paul closed his eyes.

Layers of white light spots appeared around him.

1 minute later.

"All right!"

The man opened his eyes and looked at the expectant crowd.

Kunikida Doppo asked hesitantly, "? Is this the end?"

"Well, although I have done some things here, it will not be effective immediately. It will probably not be seen until four o'clock in the afternoon."

"I did not mean that."

"Ok?"

"According to you, there is no need for us to search hard at all."

After so much effort to find it, the result is not as good as this person's effort with a little bit of supernatural power.It really makes people feel inexplicable, and, shouldn't they come to make trouble, and now Quan Jinghua is still injured.

Also, it was suspicious from the start.

What is the motive?

"Well, you should know the singularity between different abilities, right? There is also priority." The abilities of the two of them are the same, so when they are used together, singularities will appear.And in terms of the priority of abilities, the opponent is stronger than him, so if he doesn't know the opponent's focus, if the two abilities face each other, his own abilities will definitely be annihilated.

It's still a matter of saying that the supernatural ability is useless, but the serious thing is that his mental power will be severely damaged.

It will take a lot of work to recover by then.

"You mean—" Kunikida Doppo suddenly realized.

"Well, that's what it means." Paul laughed.

Atsushi Nakajima looked puzzled.

what? What?What singularity?what priority?What does this mean? ?

What do you understand! ?

He looked at the girl lying on the bed, and got an equally puzzled look.

Hmm... instantly relieved.

Let's ask Kunikida-san when the time comes.

"Then the time now," Paul looked down at his watch, "it's already eleven twenty, and I'm going to eat."

"Really never delay the time for eating, Mr. Paul."

"Of course, I've been eating ramen recently. Japanese ramen is really delicious, and there are so many styles, I can't get enough of it~"

Atsushi Nakajima's eyes lit up, and he looked at Doppo Kunikida: "Mr. Kunikida, let's go eat ramen at noon today!"

"Of course you can. Hey, kid, you're too greedy."

"Hee hee~~"

***

In Koyayatsuji's office.

"Xudu!" Edogawa jumped out in random steps, and jumped onto the body of Ayatsuji Xingren, laying his whole body on top of the man.

Ayatsuji pedestrian: ...

"Edogawa Ranpo," stretched out his hand to pull off the man who was lying on top of him and couldn't get off, Ayatsuji pedestrian turned around and narrowed his eyes: "Did you cast the wrong spell?"

"Huh?" Edogawa Ranpo blinked his eyes, not ashamed of what he did just now, "Isn't [I'm going to Ayatsuji pedestrian]?"

Of course, there's really nothing to be ashamed of.should.

"It's [around], not [there]. In this way, the ghost knows what the mechanism will recognize. But fortunately, you are here safely now."

"What would it be like to be unsafe?"

"This is Xiaoyan Tsuji's office. There are many guards guarding the corridor, and there is a woman squatting at the door."

"Woman?" Edogawa Ranpo showed sharp eyes.

"Tsujimura Fukatsuki, don't you know? The supervisor assigned to me by the Supernatural Secret Service Division."

"Ah, so to speak, you're not having much fun here." Edogawa Ranpo frowned.

So many people are watching.

"Don't think so," Ayatsuji pedestrian smiled, "I just said that there are these restrictions, but it doesn't mean that I don't have a way to break through these restrictions."

Just use a little skill.....

"It means unimpeded?"

"You can understand it this way." Ayatsuji pedestrian said.

"However, you still need to report for ordinary things, such as the purchase of some food and entertainment."

"!"

The man crossed his chest and sat on the side of the loveseat sofa, "That's right, anything you think can come true."

"!!! Really?? All kinds of snacks, movies, games, are there any of these?"

"Ah."

"Ah, is this heaven!?" Edogawa screamed in a suppressed low voice.

"However, there are prerequisites. The tasks assigned by them need to be completed at special times." Ayatsuji pedestrians showed a subtle smile.

Edogawa blinked in disorder, "What is it?"

That expression always feels a little wrong.

"confidential."

Edogawa Ranpo:  …

Talk to death.

-

"What are you looking at?" After a while, finding another topic, Edogawa asked indiscriminately.

"A little puzzle provided by a client."

"let me see!"

Ayatsuji pedestrians laughed.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the man like this, Edogawa blinked in confusion.

"Do you want to try it out?"

Seeing the eagerness of the boy on the opposite side, Ayatsuji pedestrian continued: "Let's see who is faster, in seconds."

Saying that, put the piece of paper on the table between the two of them.

Edogawa Ranpo immediately took a closer look.

And about half a minute later, when he was opening up one of the key points in his mind, the pedestrian Ayatsuji next to him suddenly said, "I'm fine."

"How is it possible!" Edogawa turned his head suddenly in disorder, with a look of shock on his face.

He's only halfway there.

Then he saw the blond man next to him with a smile and raised his index finger and shook it, "Huanbu, you forgot. Our starting point is different." He saw it earlier.

Only then did he realize something, Edogawa Ranpo puffed up his cheeks angrily, like a hamster.

"you you you!"

(Ranbu Maomao exploded!)

"Hahahaha, don't be angry, don't be angry. Come on, open your mouth—"

"Thinking that this will make Ranpo-sama forgive you, ah, good!"

"Delicious! What is this?!"

"Specially provided toffee by the supernatural agent, there are only ten pieces~" Ayatsuji pedestrian said with a smile.

Edogawa Ranpo was surprised, "Are there only ten! All over the world?"

"Well, it's a special product. It takes a lot of time and effort to make it with the superpowers of a few people."

"Wow, then I really enjoyed my meal~" Edogawa Ranpo rolled his eyes.

Ayatsuji pedestrians also smiled.

Just helpless smile.

It's so easy to dismiss, really, it's worrying.

However, these toffees are indeed time-consuming and labor-intensive to make.

***

Inside a jewelry store in Yokohama.

Zhong Yuanzhong also stood in a corner of the house, carefully observing the characters in it.

Red hair, blue eyes.Well, there is another hat, which should be easy to find.

Why would he come here to find someone?

Of course it was because Verlaine had not visited here for the first time, nor was it their first battle.At that time, this person liked to play this game of hide and seek. Last time they found that person in this jewelry store.

According to Osamu Dazai's observation and speculation.

But it wasn't because of concealment or anything. Osamu Dazai said at that time that there was something unspeakable hidden, and he didn't disclose the specifics.

But now he really has no clue, so he came here to try his luck.

result,

People, people, where are people!

There is no red-haired person in this place where you can see the head at a glance.

No, there was, a man with a bowler hat and red shawl and long hair just walked out the door.But Zhong Yuanzhong didn't care, after all, the person he was looking for was a man.

Well, he thought the person just now was a woman.

Verlaine: ...

Hehe, you deserve it because you can't find it.

-

Zhong Yuan also walked out of the jewelry store and let out a sigh.

The result is still not found.

It's really annoying.

"Forget it," the man rubbed his shoulder, "Go back to sleep first."

After talking to himself, Zhong Yuanzhong turned around and walked to the side of the road.

I took a taxi and went to my own house.

Dazai Osamu who has been following:...

Followed a lonely.

"Boom-"

Suddenly there was a gunshot, Osamu Dazai's scalp tightened, and he subconsciously hid to the side.

Unexpectedly, the bullet suddenly deviated a little in the air, and hit his shoulder directly.

"!"

Because of the pain, the man couldn't help bending his knees slightly, and he looked in the direction of the bullet.

— Verlaine.

The man was standing not far from Dazai Osamu, his handsome face was even more chic because of the wanton smile.In his hand is Nakahara Chuya's black hat.

And when Osamu Dazai thought that the other party was about to come, the man turned around, turned around a corner and left.

"I see.

Before he finished speaking, the man rolled his eyes and suddenly fell to the ground.

I really didn't expect there to be such a potent anesthetic.

After Osamu Dazai fell, the scene suddenly became chaotic.After all, although the law and order in Yokohama is not very good, shootings on such a direct road are still rare.

Not to mention this kind of sudden fall.

And the passers-by who thought the gunshots were hallucinations just now are holding their chests in fear.

After a while, the ambulance arrived in a hurry.

The author has something to say: Dazai will be alive again in the next chapter!

Osamu Dazai: This injury is nothing~
