I'm domineering in Yokohama

call--

A sudden gust of cool wind blew the hair and robes of the person sitting on the veranda drinking tea, and the pages of a book placed by his hand also rattled.

The wind is unnatural.

It was more like a wind driven by something suddenly approaching.

At the same time there are people approaching.

He clearly heard two unmasked breathing sounds from above.

Someone is attacking from above.

Fukuzawa Yukichi subconsciously touched the side of his body and found nothing, and then remembered that the sword was not there.When he looked up, he not only took off his guard and counterattack posture, but also hurriedly jumped off the verandah to the courtyard and stretched out his hand.

It happened to catch the man in the air.

"Random!"

With a bit of reprimand in his tone, he put the boy who jumped down from the sky and put him on the ground.Then he raised his eyes to see the paper butterfly that brought the wind to blow just now, and the cub sitting on the butterfly.

The butterfly circled him twice.

"Brother Luanbu."

"He is a good man."

A smile appeared on Edogawa Ranpo's face.

"Of course!" He stepped forward and reached out to hug the cub off the butterfly, repeating and affirming again: "Uncle is a good man."

Fukuzawa Yukichi, who was suddenly issued two consecutive cards: "..."

He froze for a while.

Don't tell the good from the bad.

He looked at the cub in his own child's arms, and asked suspiciously, "Ranbu, who is this child?"

"younger sister."

Edogawa Ranpo answered, "She will live here from now on."

Fukuzawa Yukichi was stunned.

Then he took a closer look at the cub.

Wearing a pink and white kimono with embroidered or open or budding jasmine patterns, her fair skin has a suet-like texture under the light of the courtyard lights, and her facial features are exquisite like a doll.

A word suddenly came to mind.

Powder carved jade.

It really looks like a doll carefully carved with jade.

The cub's eyes are ignorant and extremely pure and clear. Such a cute child must have been loved and raised by his family in every possible way, and he will definitely be anxious if he loses it.

Fukuzawa Yukichi knows that Ranpo is willful.

No.

It's very very very capricious.

It is not impossible to see a good-looking cub brought home and say that he wants to raise it. Fukuzawa Yukichi has cultivated the mentality of an old father for so many years even if he is not married.

"Random steps."

He considered the words in his mind first.

replaced by someone else.

Fukuzawa Yukichi doesn't need to speak, just glances over his eyes. Just his solemn face and his condensed demeanor like a living hell can make ordinary people behave (cowardly) obediently (such as) listen to (quail) words (quail).

Edogawa Ranpo is unusual.

Except for his brilliant mind, don't look at him as 18 years old.To be honest, his mind is probably not much different from the three or four-year-old cub in his arms.

There is an extreme lack of sophistication and common sense social experience.

And feel that these are useless knowledge.

Refuse to study.

Behavior in its own way, all based on interest.

The motto is: If it suits me, everything is fine.

But he also has a mind that is so terrifying that it can shake the foundation of society. Every time Fukuzawa Yukichi has to think about it in his heart before he speaks.

If it was too serious, he was afraid of provoking him and wanted to do something irreversible.

Light and useless.

"Ranbu, she..."

Edogawa Luanbu knew what he wanted to say when he opened his mouth, and interrupted directly: "My sister and I met seven years ago. She has no home now, and will live with us in the future."

After speaking, he carried the cub directly into the inner room.

Think about a speech.

Fukuzawa Yukichi, who was holding back again, said, "..."

OK.

are used to it.

The baby Fukuzawa Yukichi raised for seven years was neither bald nor exhausted and died of anger, thanks to his tough and strong heart.

and many more.

We have known each other for seven years.

No matter how you look at it, the cub is only three or four years old, and it is five years old at the top.

Fukuzawa Yukichi looked after him again, and suddenly found that the lines on the wide sleeves driven by the cub's waving arms changed slightly in an instant, and one of the budding flowers actually bloomed.

There seems to be a scent of jasmine.

wrong!

It does have a floral scent.

Fukuzawa Yukichi followed into the room and sniffed his nose.It wasn't his illusion, but the room was indeed filled with a faint fragrance of jasmine in an instant.

"It smells good? It smells like jasmine cake."

Edogawa Ranpo also smelled it.

Hearing that Jasmine slid down from his arms, she stretched out her arms and twirled around to show off, "The clothes Brother Si made for me look pretty."

She waved her sleeves.

This time, both of them could see clearly that the lines that were originally just buds were now blooming like real flowers.And the petals will move with the shaking and the wind, as if they are really alive.

"Jasmine on the clothes..."

Edogawa Ranpo looked at it and said directly: "It's true."

"Yes."

Jasmine nodded.

He said with a little excitement: "I remembered that my real name is Jasmine." Turning around again, "I am the little fairy Jasmine. Brother Si sealed a lot of jasmine flowers inside the clothes, which looks pretty."

She moves.

The fragrance inside is stronger.

But it's not choking, but it feels refreshing.

There were two other people present.

Edogawa Ranpo has seen strange monsters, and Fukuzawa Yukichi himself is a supernatural being.The core members of the armed detective agency established with Ranpo's reasoning ability as the core are also supernatural beings.

Anomalies are routine to them.

See this vision.

Just curious, not surprised.

Fukuzawa Yukichi remained silent.

Ok.

He was not a talkative person.

Therefore, Luanbu leaned over to observe carefully, and exclaimed with interest: "The idea of ​​planting flowers on clothes is very interesting." He also asked curiously: "Do you need watering?"

"No need to water it."

"Will it wither?"

Jasmine lifted her clothes and pointed to the dark lines embroidered with the same color silk inside the inner garment: "This is a formation, Huahua will absorb my spiritual power to maintain life, and will not wither."

Spiritual power.

It's not a supernatural power.

Fukuzawa Yukichi, who was listening to the conversation between the two, caught the key word.

But he didn't ask.

His curiosity is not so strong.

Even if the other party is a cub who doesn't know much about the world, he may be able to say anything when asked, but Fukuzawa Yukichi has no idea of ​​taking the opportunity to talk.It is impolite to ask directly about other people's private matters.

Nor is it lofty and old-fashioned.

In a way, Fukuzawa Yukichi's character is more like a real warrior in ancient times. Whether in public or in private, he strictly abides by certain rules and bottom lines.

"Only spiritual power can bloom?"

"Yes."

There are prerequisites.

Edogawa Ranpo gave up getting himself a flower-like dress like this.

"I can't bloom, forget it."

Jasmine opened the Maomao satchel, took out a handkerchief embroidered with blooming jasmine flowers from it, and handed it over: "This is blooming."Looking back, seeing Fukuzawa Yukichi who had been silent all this time, he took out another one and said, "Give it to Uncle too."

Brother Luanbu also lives in his house.

I will rely on him to support me in the future.

Strategic currying is still needed.

The appearance is just an ordinary handkerchief with a few jasmine flowers simply embroidered on it.

Fukuzawa Yukichi thought that the handkerchief should be of the same style as the clothes, and looked at the little fawning look in the cub's eyes.He hesitated for a while, but finally accepted it.

Don't covet this thing.

Just for the peace of mind of the cub.

It's rare for Luanbu to be so close to anyone, even if everyone comes, he can't be driven away.Besides, cubs with supernatural powers cannot be handed over to ordinary orphanages casually. Anyway, raising one is raising two.

Fukuzawa Yukichi was also fluctuated in his heart.

The decision is made.

I just hope that this is a well-behaved and cute child, but don't be another random step.

Otherwise he would really be bald.

"Tomorrow, I will take her to go through the guardianship procedures."

Fukuzawa Yukichi said in a cool voice.

I just heard the chat between the two and knew that the cub is now a black household.Now that you have decided to raise a baby, you still need to go through the relevant procedures for the convenience of life.

The owner of this house said so.

That is, consent to adoption.

"Thank you, uncle." Edogawa Ranpo stood up and bowed.

Rare sincere thanks and attention to etiquette.

Although he knew that he insisted that Fukuzawa Yukichi would 100% compromise to raise another cub, but he still wanted to ask for his formal consent.

This is justifiable.

the next day.

It was rare for Edogawa Ranpo to wake up early in the morning.

He didn't eat breakfast and was stuck in the working hours of the relevant units, so he urged Fukuzawa Yukichi to take the cub to go through the formalities.

Wait for Jasmine to wake up.

She is already in the car.

When he got to the place, he got out of the car and was carried into a room in a daze.

Fukuzawa Yukichi, because of some previous events and his deep political contacts in starting a detective agency, greeted the relevant units and directly gave the green light, and the procedures were handled very quickly.

"what is her name?"

Luanbu rushed to answer: "Jasmine, Jasmine's Jasmine."

"full name?"

"It's Jasmine."

Luanbu didn't want unrelated outsiders to know the cub's special 'full name', and even if the form was reported, there wasn't enough space.

He is no longer common sense.

I also know that the full name is just a joke for others.

The recorder didn't ask any more questions, all citizens need a surname.He glanced at the guardian's name, and directly filled in [Fuzawa Jasmine] in the name column.

Cover the official seal with a snap.

Hand over the materials that belong to them: "Okay, next one."

There are queues behind.

When I went out, I saw that the surname filled in the name column was [Fukuzawa]. Edogawa Ranpo immediately wanted to go back and ask the staff to change it to [Edogawa].

However, he himself is a minor supervised by a guardian.

got rejected.

Luanbu was a little bored, and then he was relieved: "It's okay if it's an uncle." Apart from his parents, the person he respects the most is this person who will endure and tolerate his waywardness.

Fukuzawa Yukichi looked at Fukuzawa Jasmine in the name column.

Mood fluctuates slightly.

It wasn't because of the surname either, when he adopted Luanbu, he was 14 years old, and it was a novelty to raise such a small cub that was not as tall as his legs.

"Uncle, I'm hungry."

In informal occasions, Luanbu always calls uncle.

Being dragged here without breakfast, Fukuzawa Yukichi put away the file bag, with an undetectable arc raised on his lips: "Go to eat."

Heard rice.

The confused Jasmine woke up instantly: "Eat."

The three got in the car and left.

Across the street, a young man with purple eyes fell into deep thought, and murmured in an unbelievable tone: "You changed your control over a young girl?"
