Another World Bookstore in Yokohama

Chapter 81

Time back to noon.

"I'm really tired~" Edogawa stretched his waist randomly.

Now he is in a sushi restaurant. He has just finished work and is preparing to eat. Before the meal is served, the boy is lying on the table exhausted after stretching.

A mobile phone was placed by the ear.He is on the phone.

A cold male voice came from the mobile phone: "Obviously there is no incident and there are a lot of miscellaneous things. You have to think about why these things came to you."

"Because I often pick up these." Edogawa Ranpo muttered, "But those all need the help of Ranpo-sama, without the help of Ranpo-sama..." The voice became smaller and smaller.

"You and your guardian made them dependent, or more seriously, made them lazy." The person over there suddenly laughed, "Then do you want to give yourself a few days off? Come to me How many days have you spent at the office?"

"The 'Little Ayatsuji Office'?" Ranpo Edogawa sat up straight, leaning on the back of the chair with all his heart.

"Ah."

"It sounds okay..." Edogawa Ranpo muttered softly, and then thought of a serious topic, "But how do I get there, I don't know where."

"It's definitely a problem, but don't worry about it."

"Do you have a solution?"

"Of course, when I mail you something, when you get it, wet it with water and think about sending it to me, and then it will be fine."

"Really?" Edogawa Ranpo was surprised.

Ayatsuji pedestrians responded, "Well, this is a gift from the boss before leaving."

"Sent by the boss? I remember he was not very generous."

"He said that he didn't need this kind of thing at all and returned a lot of it, so he threw it at me."

"Oh oh..." is still somewhat believable.

There was a yelling sound coming from the side, Edogawa Ranpo subconsciously stepped aside, looked up, there was a waiter carrying a plate, he was pretty good-looking.

The boy looked away after taking a look, and put a few dinner plates in front of him.

A plate of mixed sashimi sushi, a plate of various caviar sushi, and a plate of jade sushi.

The plates are small and there are four of each.But these are enough to eat.

"I'm going to start!"

Ayatsuji was quiet for a while.

"—Ah" stuffed a piece of Tamago nigiri sushi into his mouth, Edogawa Ranpo showed a satisfied smile, "It's delicious!"

Chew, chew, swallow,

"Hey, Ayatsuji, let me tell you," Edogawa Ranpo put the phone to his ear and whispered, as if to pass a secret message, "I just saw a person,"

"Cutaro Oguri." Ayatsuji pedestrian said on the phone.

"..."

"Sorry to interrupt your thinking."

"What do you mean?" The boy's brows twitched: "Master Luanbu also saw it right away, okay, but he spoke slowly."

"Uh-huh."

"It's so perfunctory—but Master Ranpo forgives you!"

"That's really grateful." Ayatsuji pedestrian smiled.

"By the way," Edogawa Ranpo changed the subject, "Why is that guy here?"

"The waiter just now?" Knowing that it was Koguri Chongtaro, Ayatsuji pedestrian said some news he knew: "I know that he went to work in a restaurant recently, but I didn't expect you to run into it."

"News from the Ability Secret Service Division?"

"It's my private information."

"Hey--"

.....

..

"Okay then, send it to me."

"Will do."

Edogawa Ranpo didn't go back to the Armed Detective Agency after lunch, but went to guard the gate of the Port Mafia.

His intuition told him that something very interesting would happen here today.

And just as he expected.

And just in time for the hot ones, before finding the place to do the hot ones, I saw the scene he wanted to see—Ichiyo Higuchi and Gin walking out of the Ganghei Building.

But to be precise, it should be Higuchi Ichiyo chasing Gin.The woman barked her teeth and claws, as if she wanted to express her thoughts with body language, but the girl didn't quite understand.

——"Mr. Higuchi, I don't quite understand." Silver frowned, "What are you talking about?"

"It's Mr. Akutagawa, I heard that he," Higuchi Ichiyo made an upward gesture, exaggerated, "This, is that so?"

silver:"???"

"I, I don't quite understand." The girl's eyes were blank.

Higuchi Ichiyo sighed deeply, "Do you have to say it directly..."

Silver blinked, listening to the woman continue to say:

"Just ask, Mr. Akutagawa, is he going to be a cadre—" The last few words were almost pasted next to Tremella.

The girl nodded.

Then he watched the woman beside him clenched her fist and screamed silently for a while.

"Ahem, I thought I was delusional when I got the department information, so I came to ask." Higuchi Kazuyo explained with his fist on his lips, "You don't mind, do you?"

Silver shook his head, "I don't mind."

And just when Higuchi Ichiyo was preparing to get close to him so that he could go to Akutagawa's house together, a person fell to the ground.

It hit Higuchi Ichiyo's feet.

The woman turned around stiffly, her eyes cast aside.

I saw that the man was smashed almost to the ground, the uniform of the port mafia, a male with short black hair.

"Looks like he's dead long ago," Silver said.

"But this kind of thing, we'd better stay away, Akutagawa-san!"

Suddenly in front of them, Akutagawa Ryunosuke jumped over with the help of Rashomon.

Finally, it landed in front of the man who hit the ground.

"Higuchi?" Hearing the voice, Akutagawa Ryunosuke cast his gaze over.

She looked at Ichiyo Higuchi, and Gin standing behind her.

"you,"

"Mr. Akutagawa, I was chatting with Yin just now about poetry, poetry, romance, and the years of life. It was very pleasant!"

Yin behind was dumbfounded, "Mr. Higuchi..." She murmured softly.

"I didn't ask about this either," Akutagawa twitched his lips, "you should leave now, this person was suddenly taken from the infirmary of the port mafia by a person in the confinement room to the roof and thrown down, and now that person has been arrested I have to go back, but I still need to bring this to the grassroots area so that they can settle it down."

"Oh... Mr. Akutagawa, leave this matter to me! Guaranteed to complete the task smoothly!"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke frowned, "It's just using [Rashomon] to lead someone, I can still do it, and you are still a woman, carrying such a strong man on your back."

"This is not the kind of work you have to do, don't lower your value, Higuchi."

Hearing this, Yin behind was a little stunned for a moment, and couldn't help biting his teeth lightly.

And Akutagawa Ryunosuke left after saying that, and used [Rashomon] to lift the man into the air and take him with him.

"Obviously I am like that." Yin said lightly, her voice was so small that it was indistinct and unpleasant.

Anyway, Higuchi Ichiyo didn't hear it, she was still immersed in the warning given to her by Akutagawa Ryunosuke.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (screaming madly inside!)

***

A dilapidated factory.

Kunikida walked alone in the front, next to Paul who was still giggling, and Dazai Osamu fell far behind, as if he was thinking about something with his head down.

"Still haven't found it yet." Paul sighed.

"Well, looking for someone is usually like looking for a needle in a haystack, and you only know this little information, so it's very slow." Kunikida Doppo said.

"Understand understand~ I'm not in a hurry."

Kunikida Doppo frowned and glanced at the man beside him.

This person has a strange mentality, and I don't know if it's luck or misfortune for that friend to share with this person.

"If Mr. Ranpo was here, this case should have been solved by now." The man said with emotion.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him.

"Believe in yourself, Kunikida-kun!" Dazai Osamu came running from behind, and slapped Kunikida Doppo's slightly bent back with a slap.

"Dazai," Kunikida Doppo came back to his senses, but he didn't preach to the man who slapped someone on the back, just a little strange, "Why are you smiling like that?"

This smile is really weird, Kunikida Doppo wonders if this man is imitating some evil spirit to scare children again, but there are no children here for him to scare.

What's the matter?

"What are you laughing?" Osamu Dazai turned his face in surprise, as if he was surprised by Kunikida Doppo's words, "I'm not smiling~"

It's even weirder.

There is absolutely something going on.

At this time, suddenly a message came from the phone.

Kunikida Doppo took out his phone and opened it.

"..."

He looked up at Osamu Dazai, who blinked solemnly, "What's wrong?"

Kunikida Doppo shook his head.

Putting the phone back in his pocket, he turned and ran to Paul who had been waiting in front of him.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

"It's okay, I don't care, is your companion okay?"

"It's just a daily illness," the man shrugged. "Let's just keep walking."

"The combination in your detective agency is really interesting."

"Combination?" Kunikida Doppo blinked, mentally tense, he thought in his heart that he was conducting some kind of hidden inquiry.

There were two messages sent to his mobile phone just now, one was from Dazai Osamu, asking him to delay and be cautious about this person.One was a letter from a stranger, saying in a teasing tone that he was given a time-limited mission to find a dark place of glass and stone in Yokohama, Japan, and the last signature was 'Verlaine'.

The two messages were received within seconds.

What was suspicious was that he was the only one who received the latter message, and the other two looked unclear.

He wanted to explain it to Osamu Dazai right now, but he felt that there was a completely suspicious outsider beside him. Kunikida Doppo couldn't guarantee whether this person and that friend named Verlaine were in the same group as this "confusing" armed detective. behavior of the society.

So it really doesn't work well.

"Well, my friend said it," Paul said frankly, "he seems to know a lot, a lot of information about you here, and the relationship between individual characters."

"That's why I think it's unbelievable and weird that he disappeared and didn't even contact me. For this reason, I specially asked you from the detective agency to help."

"Then thank you for your trust." Kunikida Doppo said.

Paul smiled.

The author has something to say: Do you want the perspective of God or follow Kunikida to find the answer in confusion?

It's fun to discover such a detective case!I look forward to writing snacks and Kyogoku Natsuhiko’s episode~
