Chapter 143 My Favorite Detective. It's Ranpo
Looking up, Lucy saw a strange boy waving vigorously on the street not far away.
But it's not right to say that, that boy is actually not unfamiliar to Lu Xi.
Lu Xi recognized the other party at a glance, not only because of his iconic dress, but also because that boy is an extremely special existence even in a world.
Edogawa Ranpo in Bungo Stray Dogs - a human boy who has no supernatural powers but is far superior to supernatural beings.
The possibility of a person without special ability defeating a person with ability is not zero. This is simply the best interpretation of his philosophy in the previous world.
"Extraordinary ability" super reasoning, this is the ability to see through the truth, but what impresses Lucy the most is that Edogawa Ranpo is a person without abilities. In this world where most of the best people are people with abilities, As an ordinary person, he did what was thought to be possible only with supernatural powers.
Genius is no longer enough to describe this young man, he is a genius.
Although it is unbelievable, Ranpo who can see the truth at a glance grew up as an "ordinary person", all because he has an equally excellent parent who convinced him that this is the world.
It is conceivable what a terrifying character would appear in the world if he grew up among his parents who were also gifted.
But it is a pity that before Luanbu grew up enough to accept all this, the "powerful" parents passed away.
However, Ranpo also met another leader, the president of the Armed Detective Agency, Fukuzawa Yukichi, and the current Armed Detective Agency came into being.
As a former assassin, the "Silver Wolf" who killed for the country was rescued by Ranpo, and he also founded an armed detective agency to protect Ranpo.Later, he formally met Natsume Soseki, whom he respectfully called a teacher, because he needed a license to operate a supernatural power.
All of this fits the gears of time as if the established destiny.
This is what Lucy knows about the boy in front of him.
There is no doubt that Edogawa Ranpo was Lucy's favorite detective when he was still a human being, bar none.
Brown hat and brown suit, this supposed to be a stable color, looked a bit playful and cute on the boy, just like a child who secretly put on an adult's detective suit.Black messy hair, squinted eyes when smiling, and exaggerated and enthusiastic greetings made people around think that the two should be acquainted friends.
Among them was Kunitaki who brought Ranpo out to buy snacks.
But in fact, this is the first time the two have met, but it seems that they have known each other for a long time, and they are very familiar with each other.
Whether Madoka's matter was exposed, whether Odasaku's sudden appearance was seen, these are not that important to Lucy at this time, he just smiled and held Kaito's hand and pulled the suitcase to the direction of Ranbu Walk, the pace is calm.
They are just temporary visitors to this world, and even if something is exposed, it is only to improve the reason for their coming here, and their identities become indifferent.
Instead, what's in his suitcase is the gift that really affects them.
"Dad, are you an acquaintance?" Kaito looked at Ranpo not far away, who was wearing a detective suit that looked a bit like Sherlock Holmes, with some doubts.
"It's my favorite detective." Lucy returned with a smile, eyes full of love.
"Eh? That big brother?" Hearing what his father said, Kaito scanned Edogawa Ranpo again with his eyes, trying to find some special places, but no matter how he looked, he was just a child.
And he doesn't remember that dad likes detectives?I usually pay more attention to some strange thieves.
Detective is a very famous profession in their world, and there are many excellent detectives... Is this big brother very powerful?Than those detectives?
"It's really rude, give it to me, you didn't bring it?" Luanbu frowned when he noticed Kaito's gaze, and when the few people approached, he stretched out his hand expectantly to Lucy and turned his head away from being childish He didn't even look at Kaidou.
Lu Xi was taken aback when he heard Luanbu's words, then smiled knowingly, and was about to bend down to take out the small bag in the middle of the suitcase.
But this bending perfectly revealed Oda Sakunosuke behind him.
With messy brown-red hair, a black shirt with the top button unbuttoned, an off-white windbreaker jacket, and those lazy eyes that seem to have not woken up, he is the good man in Yokohama, Odasaku.
Just like how he was dressed that day.
On a rainy day, the sky was dark, and he was holding a black umbrella in disorder. The raindrops fell on Odasaku's brown hair, and beneath that was a blue-gray eye that seemed to be frozen.
"If you go, you will die."
"I know."
This was supposed to be the last meeting between the two... Because Oda Sakunosuke still went, so he died, and Ranpo believed his own reasoning.
Edogawa Ranpo suddenly opened his pupils wide, took out the glasses in his arms, and his eyes gradually became calm as if the seal had been released.
"You're still dead." Luanbu said suddenly, which puzzled the few people who didn't know the inside story. "Hmm." Oda Sakunosuke showed a grateful smile when he recognized the boy who had reminded him in the rain.
Ranpo used to not understand why this person knew he was going to die but still went, and now he doesn't quite understand, but he might have understood something when he saw Dazai who joined the detective agency.
"I see, it's really interesting, you guys are going to the detective agency, come with me." Even though it is definitely not him who is leading the way, but Kunitaki beside him,
"Ranbu-san, aren't you going to buy some snacks?" Kunitaki on the side was a little puzzled, did he just go back?When I was in the club, because Luanbu kept acting like a baby and making noise, the president ordered Kunitaki to bring Luanbu out to prevent the other party from getting lost.
"Snacks, isn't it here?" Ranbu looked back at Kunitaki in confusion, as if saying that it's so obvious that you don't understand, isn't it right here.
Ranbu took the small bag in Lucy's hand straight away and threw it to Odasaku as a humanoid shelf, then took out a bag of snacks and ate it.
Lucy didn't stop it because this was originally a gift he brought to Ranpo, a special product from another world, and seeing Ranpo's attitude towards Odasaku, he probably already discovered it, one of their goals.
The detective agency is on the fourth floor of the building, and the atmosphere fell into silence except for the sound of eating snacks in disorder along the way.
In the detective agency, Lucy is sitting on the sofa, next to him are Oda Saku and Kaito who is sitting in a strange place.
Sitting on the opposite side were Ranbu in a very casual lying position and Kunitagi in a serious manner. There was still an empty seat in the middle, obviously waiting for someone.
Not long after, a silver-haired middle-aged man wearing teacher haori, Fukuzawa Yukichi from the Armed Detective Agency also came to this room and sat in the vacant seat like a dusty sword.
It must be a very special commission for the president to appear in person, Kunitaki thought.
"Speaking of which, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Kuroba Luxi, and this is my son Kuroba Kaito. Oda-kun must be familiar with Edogawa-kun, President Fukuzawa, and Dazai-kun of your company. I came here with a special commission, and I want to trouble your company." Lu Xi was polite at this time, as if he was an elite good at negotiating, which opened Kaito's eyes.
In the office, Lucy finally revealed the purpose of his trip.
"Call Dazai, he is the only one who can do this job." After Ranpo finished speaking, he sat on the sofa and did not intend to leave. It was inconsistent with his usual style but enough to express his interest in this "case".
"There are two reasons for coming here. One is to meet Mr. Nakahara Nakaya through Dazai-kun, and my friend wants to join your company." Lucy's eyes turned to Odasaku who felt that there was no sense of existence, and Odasaku complied Lucy nodded.
President Fukuzawa and Oda Sakunosuke, who had been reunited for a long time, looked at each other, and the two got up at the same time and walked to the side cubicle, presumably to discuss some topics that are inconvenient for others to know.
For example, Odasaku's past as a killer and the port mafia and the relationship with the curry rice, but Lu Xi didn't have the slightest worry about it. Now there is no doubt that Odasaku is a gentle and good person. In addition, Ranpo's attitude of treating Oda Saku as his own clearly shows that he has seen the end of Oda Saku joining the detective agency.
"Dazai is here." Shortly after the two left, Kunitaki suddenly said, why is Kunitaki so sure?Because his eyes were pitch black at this moment, this was the stress alarm generated by his body in the face of Dazai after being "tortured" by Dazai countless times
When Dazai arrived, the door of the compartment was also closed, and the sounds of opening and closing coincided with each other.
"Huh? Want to see Zhongye?"
"If you want to see that slug, you can go directly to Ganghei, I don't take the initiative to meet that sticky slug." Dazai waved his hands disapprovingly.
"Dad, aren't we going to find Sensei Nakahara? What does it have to do with the Mafia? Could it be that Master Nakahara was kidnapped by the Mafia?!" Kaito was nervous when he thought of this, but Dazai revealed it when he heard it Eating ○ expression.
"I don't want to directly conflict with Hong Kong gangsters, so I want to get in touch with Mr. Dazai, the former partner of Mr. Zhongyuan, who used to be gangsters. I believe my friend, Dr. Mori, will also be interested." Lucy said in Dazai His disgusted expression fully explained his reason.
"Oh? What is it?" This made him a little interested.
"For some reason, my currency cannot be used here, so the reward I can offer is 〖Book〗." What Lucy simply put in the suitcase is the reward he offered - 〖Book〗.
How should I put it? The existence of [Book] is a bit special to the supernatural beings in this world, just like a certain holy grail in a certain moon world.
"Is it a clue to the book?" The hearts of those who knew the legend about the book suddenly thumped. The only book that can be used as a reward is probably that one.
Kunitaki subconsciously looked at Edogawa Ranpo who brought him here, and Ranpo happily began to answer.
"It's a book. Although it's not the one you're thinking about, it has a lot to do with you, so it's better to accept it." Ranbu didn't know when he opened his eyes that had been smiling all the time. He took off his glasses, his expression condensed.
The other members of the Armed Detective Agency naturally trust their detective Luanpo unconditionally. This seemingly childish man Ye is indeed the core of the Armed Detective Agency.
"Why do you want to see Nakahara Chuya?" Osamu Dazai suddenly thought of something and asked Kaito with a smile, looking very harmless.
Yes, yes, who would take a child to meet a Hong Kong black cadre, the normal person Kunitaki thought.
"Because he is my favorite poet!" Kaito Kuroba smiled innocently, regardless of how many jaws were shocked by his words.
"Poet?! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha." Shocking laughter erupted from the sofa, and even a little of it could be heard in the soundproofed cubicle.I saw Osamu Dazai lying on the sofa almost laughing and messing up his windbreaker.Suddenly he thought of something, straightened his coat and left quickly, believing that he would not be alone when he came back soon.
While waiting, the childish Ranpo and Kaito who was a child did not know when they reconciled and muttered to each other.
I don't know that when it comes to Kaito, he even contributed his small wallet. Ranpo looked at Japan's largest [-]-yuan banknote with great interest.
At this time, the president came back with Oda Sakunosuke, apparently agreeing to the other party's joining the club, which was not beyond everyone's expectations.
"The money is really different, who is printed on it?"
"Fukuzawa Yukichi." The naive Kaito stepped into the trap of the Ranpo Belt?
I noticed that there was also a chaotic synchronous expression that you didn't know about.
"..." The president who was called by his name suddenly stopped in his tracks.
The author has something to say: In the next chapter, Dazai and Odasaku will probably meet each other. Although the CP they eat is very mixed, I love Shuanghei the most. Unfortunately, I can’t find the feeling and it’s hard to write.
Bungou Stray Dogs is so difficult to write, the deep meaning is so complicated, but I don’t want to be too shallow.
I love Ranpo very much. I recently read Bungo’s Stray Dog novel 3. The part where the detective agency is established is the part where the president meets Ranpo. I love him even more. This feeling even surpassed that of Shuanghei.
I have read a lot of light novels recently and wonder if the style of writing has been affected.
I believe that many little angels have guessed the part about the book, it is a routine.
Bungo Stray Dogs I wrote, I hope you like it.
In addition, just like Mao Zedong on our banknotes, Heguo's [-] yuan paper is printed with a writer with the same name as the president.
By the way, I almost forgot again. I forgot to mention in the last chapter about why Kaito’s favorite writer is Chuya Nakahara.
Personally, I think he should really like to read poems [The writing style of the teaser letter hahaha], and when it comes to the poets of the He Kingdom, he is definitely on the list.
所以就定了快斗是中也迷弟。感谢在2020-03-1819:02:39~2020-03-2316:39:55期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
