Zongman: Hong Kong's black ceiling but autistic, what should I do?

"Ah~ I'm finally home. The amount of exercise I have to walk back from the detective agency every day is really too much for a famous detective who is engaged in mental activities~"

Edogawa Ranpo brought Fukuzawa Sakura back home, lay down on the sofa, turned on the TV, ate snacks, and ignored Fukuzawa Sakura.

Fukuzawa Sakura stood at the door and looked at the clock on the wall.

"It's only been ten minutes since I left the detective agency. It seems that this famous detective's physical fitness is not very high."

"Ying, don't say in your mind that I have a weak physique! I'm a brain person!"

"...OK."

After answering Edogawa Ranpo's "order", Fukuzawa Sakura stood at the door until Edogawa Ranpo started yawning while watching TV.

"Ha~ Sakura, help me prepare pajamas and hot water!"

"OK..."

"Ah, Ying, the house is a little messy. Remember to clean it up later. In the future, you must clean up the house in time when it is messy, otherwise the president will scold me!"

"OK..."

"Ying, you have to take good care of me~ I'm the detective agency's most important treasure!"

"OK..."

Edogawa Ranpo watched Fukuzawa Sakura obediently obey his orders and boasted with satisfaction in his heart.

“Hehe, it’s worth the effort I put into bringing him back. It really feels good not to have to do it myself~ You are worthy of being Ranpo-sama!”

That's right, Edogawa Ranpo suddenly changed his attitude and "generously" forgave Fukuzawa Sakura just to trick Fukuzawa Sakura back home so that she could take care of him and free his hands, and he wouldn't have to worry about being discovered by the president for being lazy and not doing housework and being scolded.

In this way, Fukuzawa Sakura went from being a homeless person to Edogawa Ranpo's home-based nanny.

"Ying, Ramune~"

"Ok."

"Ying, we've finished eating the potato chips, bring a new bag~"

"Ok."

"Ah, strawberry-flavored potato chips taste terrible. Ying, let me show you how to try it~"

"!!!"

"You unexpectedly like this flavor? Then I'll leave these strawberry, green pepper and mango flavored potato chips to Ying~"

"Ok."

"Sakura, Dagashi~"

"Ok."

"Ying, the TV is broken! The repair instructions are on the bookshelf~"

"Bang bang——"

"All right."

"Ying, I want to eat curry, the cookbook is on the table~"

"Ok."

"Ying, I've finished reading the new comics. I'll show them to you~"

"Ok."

Originally, apart from those experimental materials, Fukuzawa Sakura had only read popular science books and fairy tales. Thanks to Edogawa Ranpo, Fukuzawa Sakura read a lot of books while invisible and unlocked many skills.

Of course, in addition to skill points, under the promotion of Edogawa Ranpo, Fukuzawa Sakura's language system has also been updated——

"The latest comic is so bad! Sakura! What do you think the next plot will be?"

"defeat..."

"Don't just keep saying words! Don't you know grammar? No matter how clumsy your speech is, you have to speak complete sentences to make progress! I don't want to spend energy every day helping you expand your sentences. Even though it only takes as much energy as dust, it's still tiring~"

"I...think...the hero will...beat...the...heroine."

"Yeah, I think so too. This plot is too cliché. Sakura, help me change it~"

"The news lately is so boring. I thought this '368's Horrifying Encounter: The Cute Little Girl Who Was Just Talking Disappeared' was not good when I saw the commission, but it actually made the headlines!"

"This...number...looks so familiar..."

...

Under the supervision of Edogawa Ranpo, Fukuzawa Sakura's language skills improved rapidly.

Congratulations, congratulations.

As for the so-called "teaching Fukuzawa Sakura to make her own decisions"?

This is too simple~

After enjoying Fukuzawa Sakura's VIP "service" for a month, Edogawa Ranpo invited Fukuzawa Sakura, who had just finished washing the dishes, to sit opposite him.

"Sakura, come here."

Fukuzawa Sakura sat on the sofa opposite Edogawa Ranpo, and Edogawa Ranpo crossed his hands on his chest and said to Fukuzawa Sakura angrily:

"During this time, Lord Ranpo has been observing you. I found that, Sakura, you are really - a complete idiot!"

Fukuzawa Sakura did not react much when being scolded by Edogawa Ranpo. She just looked at Edogawa Ranpo quietly, waiting for what to come next.

"Hmph, don't think I won't scold you just because you look at me like that! Ranpo-sama is very strict!

Think about what you have done during this period of time besides obeying my orders?

Did nothing!!!

It wasn’t like this when you were in the lab!!!”

"!!!" Edogawa Ranpo's affirmative words surprised Fukuzawa Sakura.

"You can deduce everything that happens in the lab? You must be cheating!"

"..."

"Don't think I don't know just because you don't say anything. Nothing in the world can be hidden from Ranpo-sama! What's the name of your helper?"

"...Little Black"

"It's definitely a cheat. If Xiao Hei can figure it out, then it must be a cheat!"

"Humph, with so many people in the lab, you have the guts to ask Xiao Hei to do some tricks, but why don't you dare to do it when it's just you and me at home?! Also, don't scold me for cheating in your heart. I'm reasoning, not cheating!"

"It's bad, God of Hanging"

"You still said that!!!"

"...sorry."

In Fukuzawa Sakura's eleven years of life and six years of memory, she had never encountered a difficult person like Edogawa Ranpo.

He clearly had not told anyone about what was happening in the lab, and even Kobayashi didn't know that he had helpers or was doing something behind the scenes.

Even for myself, I have to rely on Xiao Hei's "real-time monitoring" to get other information.

But Edogawa Ranpo was able to tell me everything that happened before he knew me.

Moreover, just now I had no expression in front of Edogawa Ranpo, let alone speaking, but Edogawa Ranpo could actually see through my thoughts accurately.

"Humph!" After hearing Fukuzawa Sakura's honest apology, Edogawa Ranpo carefully observed and confirmed that Fukuzawa Sakura was no longer saying that she was cheating, and continued to educate Fukuzawa Sakura:

“I know because you don’t have any goals right now.

When you are in the laboratory, there may be various things that arouse your curiosity, so you will try your best to figure out the principles. But now at home, living a stable and comfortable life every day, nothing else can attract your attention.

So, as your mentor, I have a mission for you!"

Edogawa Ranpo opened his eyes, and his green pupils met Fukuzawa Sakura's eyes, which were of similar color to his own.

"Ying, do what you did secretly before openly. Don't listen to anyone's orders, just listen to your own heart - whether you want to observe, learn or imitate, or you don't have any thoughts or opinions in your heart, you don't need to pretend, your appearance just needs to show your true thoughts!

——Well, no matter how hard you try to hide, you can’t escape Ranpo-sama’s reasoning~”

Fukuzawa Sakura looked at Edogawa Ranpo with wide eyes, but Edogawa Ranpo's words kept appearing in her mind.

For a long time, people around her have always held the stereotype of Fukuzawa Sakura as "completely obeying orders and being well-behaved and obedient". Only Edogawa Ranpo saw through the "rebellious", curious and even somewhat mischievous side of Fukuzawa Sakura's heart.

"Instead of following orders, you follow your own heart...?"

Edogawa Ranpo did not give Fukuzawa Sakura time to accept the shock and asked her: "Until now, the tasks you have been carrying out should only be boring orders like 'live a normal human life'~"

Fukuzawa Sakura already regarded Edogawa Ranpo as a god in her heart, so she was not surprised that Edogawa Ranpo could tell her about his mission, and nodded.

“Does the task publisher set the priority of the task?”

"No..."

"Then this matter is even simpler! Ying, set my previous mission as the highest priority. No matter what missions and instructions you receive in the past or in the future, their priority must be lower than my mission. In other words -

No matter what tasks you have not completed yet, or any orders you will receive in the future, you should not obey them. The only thing you need to do is to follow your own heart!"
