The False Protagonist and the True Demon King[Comprehensive]

The time on the weekend is always very happy, of course it is quite difficult for the adults who have to go to work on the weekend, Shen Xi is standing at the door of the store holding a lot of balloons, a child will jump on his lap in a few minutes Jump up and try to grab them.

Taking out one of the balloons in his hand and handing it to the child, Shen Xi sighed.

"Mr. Ranpo, why do I have to stay here with you." Shen Xi looked at the teddy bear next to him, "And it's about blowing out balloons."

"Ahahaha, that's because Dazai couldn't take care of you, so he entrusted you to me!" Edogawa Ranpo patted Shen Xi's shoulder with his bear's paw, "Since I was entrusted, of course a detective will do it." OK!"

"What did he pay you for?"

Edogawa waved his bear arms in disorder, "It's a coupon for desserts for ten days! That store is super delicious, but it's limited, and sometimes you can't even get it in line!"

Sighing, Shen Xi pulled off one of the balloons and handed it to the little girl who was lying on his lap trying to stand on tiptoe to get the balloon, "I see."

"By the way, there is one more thing. A detective is looking for someone, and I will ask you to help catch him when he is found."

Shen Xi looked at Da Xiong next to him, "Reward."

"Well, how about I give you half of the coupon that Dazai gave me?"

"No, those should belong to me originally, I want a new reward." Shen Xi's face remained unchanged, his eyes were extremely calm, "Mr. Luanbu, what do you think?"

Edogawa Ranpo nodded, "You're right, how about I give Dazai a month off?"

"Do you have the right to give Dazai a holiday?"

"It doesn't matter! I can tell the president, of course, after the matter is completely over!" Edogawa said with his hands on his hips, "A famous detective can do anything, that's it!"

Shen Xi stretched out his hand and patted Edogawa Ranbu's bear paw, "deal!"

"Balloon balloon, big brother, I want a balloon~"

Shen Xi hurriedly lowered his head and continued blowing out balloons. It was the first time for him to do such a job. Compared with the teacher... it was much harder.

Just as Shen Xi was blowing out the balloon, Edogawa Ranpo walked over as if he saw someone, and knocked a person out with his 'strong' body in an instant.

"Ah! Pain, pain, who is it? Disorderly... Disorderly steps?"

Shen Xi walked over to look at the person on the ground. This person looked a little strange, with black hair covering his eyes, and a coat on his body, and a little raccoon lying on his shoulder.

"Are you okay?" Shen Xi stretched out his hand towards him, "Come on, I'll pull you."

Edgar stretched out his hand cautiously and was pulled up by Shen Xi, "That... I, thank you."

"It's really Paul, what a coincidence!" Edogawa Ranpo took off the hood at this time, "What are you doing here?"

"Oh, so I was waiting for someone."

Edgar sighed, "I am indeed waiting for someone, but what are you doing here, Luanbo? And you are still dressed like this, and who is he?"

Edogawa Luanbu turned his head and glanced at Shen Xi who was still blowing out balloons, "Well, Paul, what kind of person do you think he is?"

"Huh? Good guy." Edgar said, "He seems very gentle."

"Yeah, he's really a good guy." Edogawa Luanbu nodded, "Speaking of which, you came just in time, so come and do me a favor!"

When Shen Xi turned his head, he saw Edogawa Ranbu put the hood on the head of the man who was knocked down just now, and dragged him forward, Shen Xi quickly followed, obviously he knew Mr. Ranpo, Let's just leave it alone.

"Mr. Ranpo, where are we going?"

"Find the person I've been looking for!"

The person being dragged miserably called Luanbu's name, "Luanbu, where are you taking me? Karl bit me inside! It hurts!"

Standing on the observatory, Shen Xi looked at the scenery outside the window. Mr. Luanbu was chatting with the person he miserably dragged away, but he seemed to be chatting happily. It turned out that this was Mr. Luanpo's friend.

Suddenly, Shen Xi noticed a file bag appeared on the window of the observatory. Shen Xi walked over to pick up the file bag. Behind the bag was a red arrow pointing upwards.

Shen Xi looked up, but saw nothing...

He directly took the file bag and walked to the side of the two, "Mr. Ranpo, the thing next to the window."

At the same time, Edgar just said: "The other party said that his characteristic is that he is holding a red envelope."

Edogawa Ranpo looked at Shen Xi who was holding a red envelope, "Shen Xi, are you the one who agreed to meet Paul?"

Shen Xi shook her head, "Here, the thing by the window."

"Eh? A window?"

Edogawa Ranpo and Edgar looked at the window at the same time. At this moment, a person fell from the sky and hit the ground in an instant, making a clear sound of hitting the ground.

Shen Xi only turned his head at this time, when there were already miserable screams outside.

Walking to the side of the bed and looking at the corpse on the ground, Shen Xi said, "I miss this falling posture."

"Please don't talk about your suicide experience, the famous detective will be dispatched soon." Edogawa Ranbu opened the document in his hand, "But that person, that face just now..."

"It's the Destroyer that Chaos is looking for!"

Shen Xi squatted next to the corpse, her pitch-black eyes were too calm, she didn't seem to feel anything terrible about the corpse, as if it was just a broken watermelon.

"Shen Xi." Edogawa called out to him in disorder, "Then please help me, go to the top to see if there are any traces."

Shen Xi nodded, "I see."

Seeing Shen Xi return to the exhibition hall, Edgar asked Ranbu in a low voice, "Who is Ranbu? He doesn't look like a member of your detective agency."

"He belongs to Dazai." Ranbu said confidently, "I'll borrow him to help!"

"So that's the case." Edgar nodded, "I always feel that he seems very strange. Although he looks very gentle, I think he is not simple."

Edogawa nodded in disorder, "But compared to him, let's look at the corpse first!"

Shen Xi climbed to the highest floor step by step. He stood on the top and looked downstairs. The chaotic steps and corpses became a very small point, which was about the same height as the observation tower he and Dazai jumped over last time.

Randomly, that person fell to his death just now, could he also fall to his death?

It has been a long time since he came to Yokohama, but it seems that he has never committed suicide seriously once, so should he try?Right here, following in the footsteps of the predecessors, I fell down.

Shen Xi was evaluating the probability of falling to his death.

Escaping the phone from his pocket, Shen Xi directly took a picture of looking down and sent it to Osamu Dazai, and told him his desire to jump.

Osamu Dazai only replied with one sentence.

"Don't trouble Mr. Ranpo, or he will ask me for more reward!"

Tsk, this man...

Putting the phone back into his pocket in a dispirited manner, Shen Xi looked at the ground, he frowned slightly, just now he left alone from the crowd, he looked like an ordinary passerby, standing in the crowd of onlookers, but...wrong.

What is that on him?

Groups of fog-like and flame-like things wrapped around him, but after being separated, they turned into ghost-like existences one by one. Is this...a supernatural power?

Before catching the thing that floated out, Shen Xi saw Edogawa chaotically leaving the spot and chasing after him, but it didn't look like he was chasing this guy specifically, but he seemed to be walking casually.

As expected of Mr. Ranpo, have you noticed something is wrong?

As if he had discovered something, the man raised his head, one was on the top of the building and the other was downstairs, they looked at each other perfectly.

In the next second, the man looked away, and continued to leave as if nothing had happened, his eyes were flat, at least Shen Xi didn't notice anything wrong on the top of the observatory, which was quite far away from him.

But in fact, Koguri Chongtaro was extremely nervous, the moment he saw the man on the top of the tower, he even felt that his breathing was about to stop.

Why is there a person on it?When did he go up?Why didn't I find out?

And... did he see anything.

"No, it's impossible."

Koguri Chongtaro laughed, but this smile made his face quite ugly.

"My ability is [Perfect Crime]! Now all the evidence is gone, it doesn't matter even if someone saw it, not to mention, he must not have seen it! If someone is behind me, I will definitely be able to detect it!"

Reassuring himself in this way, Koguri Chongtaro breathed a sigh of relief, "That's it, and then wait for the car he arranged to pick me up and leave."

Shen Xi sat on a high place and dangled his legs. He looked at the crowd downstairs who were still watching and the miserable corpse and sighed. Mr. Luanbu left, so let's follow up first.

After all, he promised that Mr. Ranpo would help him find someone.

Koguri Chongtaro waited in the alley, with a little anxiety on his face, but he was quite confident that his ability could not be seen through, and in his heart, this matter was over.

"Hello."

A voice sounded behind him, Koguri Futaro gasped, he turned his head suddenly, Edogawa was standing behind him in disorder, no!When did he come over!

In fact, it's not just Mr. Ranpo.

Shen Xi stood on the wall not far away and looked at them.

Mr. Ranpo was negotiating with him, their voices could not be heard from where Shen Xi was, and his expression was blurred, but he could still feel that the person was quite panicked by Mr. Ranpo's arrival.

What made it all end was the black car driving by the side of the road. When he saw this car, the man breathed a sigh of relief and said that he was going to leave. Unfortunately, Mr. Ranpo did not give up, but followed directly car.

To let Mr. Ranpo follow like this, ah, is this the person Mr. Ranpo is looking for?

Destroyer.

Shen Xi didn't know exactly what happened to the detective agency, but since Mr. Ranpo still wanted to find that guy, it meant that this person was really important.

……

There was soothing music playing in the bar, Liao Liao and several guests were discussing in a low voice, the scene was warm and comfortable, Osamu Dazai was sitting on the bar counter shaking the wine glass in his hand, the ice cubes collided with the glass and made a crisp sound.

"It's still the same." Dazai Osamu sighed: "It's really nostalgic, don't you think so, Ango."

Ango Sakaguchi sat next to Osamu Dazai, "Boss, please give me a glass of water."

"You are still the same." Osamu Dazai took a sip of his wine, "Ah, drinking this kind of wine in this weather is really a test, and I feel like my whole body is going to freeze after one sip."

Ango Sakaguchi rolled his eyes, "Then Dazai, what are you looking for me for?"

"Can't we catch up on the past? I came out to see you behind Shen Xi's back, and I didn't let him know." Osamu Dazai sneaked a look around as if he was behind his wife's back to see Xiaosan, "Ango, don't be so cold."

"I didn't expect you to forgive me." Ango Sakaguchi said in a low voice, "So Dazai, what are you calling me for?"

Osamu Dazai looked at him, and the enthusiasm in his eyes disappeared in an instant, "Since Ango has said so, I would like to ask if there is any information about Shen Xi in the Supernatural Secret Service Division."

"It really is for him."

Ango Sakaguchi sighed, "Dazai, don't you think you pay too much attention to him?"

Hearing that Osamu Dazai just smiled, he took another sip of his wine, "This is my private matter, Ango shouldn't be stupid to meddle in my private affairs, right?"

"I see." Ango Sakaguchi looked at the water glass in his hand, "About Shen Xi, the only information that can be found by the Supernatural Secret Service Division is after he came to Neon at the age of 15."

Osamu Dazai put the wine glass on the table, "Ango, haven't you consulted with Huaguo from the Secret Service? I don't believe it."

"Even so, my authority is not enough to know such a secret." Ango Sakaguchi gripped the cup tightly, "I'm sorry Dazai, I can't help you with this matter."

Osamu Dazai narrowed his eyes slightly, and his fingers tapped on the table, making a crackling sound. After a while, Osamu Dazai laughed, as if nothing had happened.

Lie down on the table and knocked on the wall of the cup, Osamu Dazai whispered:

"Anwu, since you don't want to tell me this, then I really want to know why a person with supernatural powers of Shen Xi's level is allowed to come to Neon. I remember that Huaguo is single."

"No." Sakaguchi Ango said, "Shen Xi's nationality is still Hua."

Osamu Dazai was stunned for a moment, "What did you say? Shen Xi's nationality has not changed?"

Ango Sakaguchi shook his head, "Dazai, I really can't say much about this issue, I can only tell you that your companion is not simple, even in Huaguo his information is top secret, our communication with Huaguo on this issue Quite difficult."

"What do you mean?"

"Some people in the Supernatural Secret Service Division think that a powerful superhuman who is not their own is very dangerous in Neon, so they want to send Shen Xi back, and some people think that they need to contact the other party first, but...the other party refuses to answer. "

Osamu Dazai was a little surprised, "Ango, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

"Of course I won't lie to you." Ango Sakaguchi lowered his head and looked at the table, "At least for now, what I said is true, if you really want to know about him, don't ask the Ability Secret Service Section, I suggest you take him back to China."

After speaking, Ango Sakaguchi put down the water glass and left. Osamu Dazai didn't even turn his head. He just shook the glass and looked at the amber liquid in the glass. Osamu Dazai laughed slowly.

"Anyway, it seems that the person I like is a very special guy, who can make Hua Guo directly refuse to answer..."

Compared with Neon, Huaguo on the opposite side is the most dreaded country. This mysterious oriental country is next door to Neon, but they have never been in contact with it. It is said that there are quite terrifying supernatural beings here, and the number of numerous.

The most important thing is that the information of these supernatural beings is quite strictly protected. Even the rats in the house of death have no news about the supernatural beings in China at all.

"Is the nationality still the country of Hua? If so, it's not bad."

After finishing the drink in the glass, Osamu Dazai walked out of the bar after paying the bill. He walked all the way to an unfamiliar land and finally stopped on a hill.

It was a hill with a panoramic view of Yokohama, and there were quite a few tombstones all over it. Most of the tombstones were blank. Osamu Dazai walked to one of the blank tombstones with a faint smile on his face.

"Odasaku, I'm here to see you."

The wind blew his sand-colored windbreaker with a rustling sound, Osamu Dazai closed his eyes and his face was calm.

"I found a new companion. Actually, I've always wanted to come and talk to you, but I just haven't had the time. Just like you think, he's a nice person."

Osamu Dazai whispered, "Next time, bring him to see you."

……

Shen Xi kept following the car, the car was not going fast, it could even be said to be very slow, which gave him time to look into the window, Mr. Luanbu and that person seemed to be talking all the time, the expression of that person looked Not sure, but it shouldn't look very good.

Mr. Ranpo's character is more like a child than an adult, but he is a pillar of the detective agency, and if he is serious, he will be in a terrifying state.

He will point out all the loopholes of a person without mercy, and then block his retreat little by little.

Soon, Shen Xi saw a group of armed policemen stop the car, Mr. Ranpo stepped out of the car, and Koguri Chongtaro stood in front of Ranpo, with panic on his face that he didn't know what to say.

In fact, Shen Xi still doesn't quite understand, because according to this guy's ability, there is no evidence.

Destroyer means that there is no evidence to confirm his guilt, so how did Mr. Ranpo make him surrender...

Or... worrying.

This makes sense, after all Dazai often makes a person do what he wants when he can't refuse.

Sure enough, Mr. Ranpo is really powerful.

Seeing the man being taken away by the police, Edogawa Ranpo heaved a sigh of relief, and finally caught him.

But... where did Shen Xi go?

Shen Xi didn't help, hahaha, the agreed reward can be exempted.

At this time, Shen Xi was still staring at the car. The man named Koguri Chongtaro looked quite nervous. He seemed to have noticed something. After getting in the car, he became very anxious. Although he felt that it had nothing to do with him, But Shen Xi is boring.

Along the way, Shen Xi saw unusual people. The blasted vehicle emitted billowing smoke. The police stopped the vehicle and looked ahead. The road was tightly blocked by bustling people.

At this time, a man in police uniform walked out from the crowd, and at that moment Shen Xi remembered the devil he had seen.

He was also wearing a police uniform, and then directly stabbed Mori Ogai.

There was a bang, before Shen Xi could react, blood splashed instantly.

"its not right."

Shen Xi looked ahead, with slight hesitation in his dark eyes, "Do you want to take care of it? But this person seems to be the enemy of the detective agency, so it shouldn't matter if he dies."

Just when Shen Xi was hesitating, that person had already completed his disguise, and he was no longer the policeman just now. He is now a guy in a clown suit and a magic hat, with an uncomfortable smile on his face .

It's weird, no, it should be pretty weird.

No, maybe this is what Mr. Ranpo said after everything is over, because the whole incident has just begun.

"Hahaha, ask me here, who am I?"

"What? You said my name is Gogol? That's right!"

"The next question, what am I here for? The hint is to clean up the mess, ah, I accidentally said it."

Koguri Chongtaro's eyes widened suddenly, "Clean up the mess?"

"That's right, that is to say... huh?"

Gogol let out a little surprise, and then he jumped back instantly, and the roof of the car slammed, as if someone stepped on it.

Shen Xi raised his head, he looked at the guy who still had a strange smile in front of him, "Are you with the devil?"

"Devil?" Gogol tilted his head, "Oh, you are the strange person he said, hahahaha, great, I have always wanted to see you."

This is an indirect acknowledgment.

Shen Xi directly took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed Edogawa Ranpo.

"Mr. Ranpo, I want to double the reward."

"What?" Edogawa Ranpo stood there in a daze for a moment.

"Because I found the devil's accomplice."

Koguri Fusutaro finally came to his senses at this moment, "Could it be that you are the same as Dostoevsky..."

"That's right, we are the Five Decays of Heaven and Man."

Shen Xi didn't know what the five evils were, but he felt that if he couldn't catch this guy, Mr. Ranpo wouldn't pay him double, so the top priority was to keep this guy.

"So, here's the question, how do you think I know you from him?"

Gogol jumped to the side of Shen Xi, and his joyful voice rang in his ears, "The hints are supernatural powers and monsters."

"Oh." Shen Xi replied coldly, "So?"

"Ah? Ah? Don't you care?" Gogol jumped out of the car, "Hahaha, it's so interesting."

Shen Xi jumped out of the car without saying a word, just stood in front of the car and looked at him, Koguri Chongtaro opened the door forcefully, "So what exactly do you want to do?"

"Huh? Didn't I tell you everything? I'm cleaning up the mess. My job is to erase the people who know our next plan, hahaha, but something went wrong, are we going to erase two people now? "

Gogol said with a smile, "So ask again, how will I kill you? This time there is no hint!"

"If you guess right, you can die in the way you like."
