Has Mr. Shenshang submitted the manuscript today?

......

"Hello, may I ask..." Yosano Akiko heard the knock on the door, and hurried to the door and opened it. The moment she got up, Edogawa, who was lying on the table chewing rough snacks, Luanbu sat up with a "snap" and hurriedly piled up the mountain of immature snacks in front of him.

He hastily adjusted the brim of his hat, and carefully looked out the door. There were still a few pale pink sleep marks on his fair and tender face, just like the long and thin whiskers on a cat's face, curled up and down as he breathed. of.

"Hello." As soon as he opened the door, Maupassant gave a lady's salute to Yosano Akiko Yingying. The lively look on his face made the short-haired doctor slightly startled, and looked inquiringly at Kamisaka Saku who was following behind.The latter touched his nose in embarrassment and nodded at her shyly.

What's going on here?Yosano Akiko had a question mark in her heart, but out of trust in the group favorite, she still made way for this woman who didn't seem to be an ordinary character.

The doubtful female doctor thought about it, then lightly poked Shenshang Shuo with her elbow from behind, pointed in the direction of Maupassant, and gestured silently, "Who is this?"

She believed that if she lent their little cutie ten guts, he wouldn't dare to have an affair, so this girl holding his little hand couldn't possibly be a little lover.But what is strange is that these two people look so familiar, and their eyebrows and eyes are also somewhat similar.

Shenshang Shuo moved his lips, and slowly squeezed out a few weak syllables, so light that they seemed to be dissipated in the air, and finally said, "Mom."

His voice was too low, Yosano Akiko who was walking in front couldn't hear a word, only heard a few weak noises.She flicked her hair casually, turned her head and replied, "God? What did you just say?"

"She said, I'm his mother." Maupassant still had a decent smile on his face, looked past Yosano Akiko, and looked at Kamisaku Saku with implied encouragement.She sat dignifiedly on the chair that Kunikida had pulled out, with her hands folded on her knees, "As you can see, I was lucky enough to find my little baby today, and I had a very pleasant afternoon tea with him."

"Please don't be nervous, I just came to see where this kid works." She smiled again, looked at Edogawa Ranpo accurately, and tapped the handle of the umbrella with her left hand, "Do you understand A mother's wish, isn't it?"

"Hiss——" Yosano Akiko couldn't hold it back, and took a breath. She hurriedly pulled Shenshang Shuo to the corner, away from the central area where the magnetic field was "sizzling", and said in shock, "When did you get so many?" mother?"

She took another look at Maupassant, who was walking back and forth with Edogawa, "She is truly a beauty...how did you and her know each other? When did you meet? How did we meet?" do not know anything."

Speaking of this, the short-haired doctor suddenly said, no wonder Mr. Luanbu has been listlessly flipping through comics on the desk since he went out, like a black cat whose nape was lifted by the president.

It turned out that the reason was here. At the time, she was thinking that the two of them had become too gluey and quarreled.

"We just met today, in that dessert shop we often go to..." Shen Shangshuo and Xie Ye explained in a low voice.

Yosano Akiko: "You guys just met?"

"No..." She frowned, looked at Maupassant who was smiling and Yanyan again with a scrutiny, and said further, "It's not that I poured cold water... Do you have any evidence? Said Really, I am afraid that you will be deceived."

Especially in such a special period.

"I..." Shenshang Shuo was at a loss for words for a moment, he really didn't have such strong evidence as DNA proof, he couldn't just say that there was a blood connection between the two mother and child, could he?

Seeing Shenshang Shuo's tangled expression, the female doctor understood, and the mist of doubt in her heart almost condensed into substance.She squinted her eyes fiercely in the direction of the French woman, determined that someone shamelessly lured their poor little family with something like affection.

The white-haired boy saw it and was anxious. Just as he was about to explain a few more words, he heard the two people who had been fighting stop and looked at their small corner neatly.

The woman gave him a comforting smile, and motioned him to leave this to her to deal with.She looked gently at Yosano Akiko who was sneering, and took a sip of tea without nervousness, "Dear miss, I think we should talk."

"Oh?" Xie Ye almost laughed angrily, and said sarcastically, "What are you talking about? Are you talking about cheating him? Or are you going to talk about abducting this child?"

"Oh no, how could I deceive him, my Monamour? No one can replace him." Maupassant laughed aloud, "But I'm very glad that he has a lovely colleague like you, at least more reliable and mature."

She pointedly looked at Edogawa Ranpo, who looked at Sakumo Kamigami with a sullen expression on his face full of accusations, his small eyes were so wronged that his lover's heart almost melted.

Your mother doesn't like me!She actually doesn't like Mr. Ranbu!What do you want me to do?

"Also, in fact, there is no need for evidence..." Maupassant added calmly, "Leaving aside the part of my blood in Monamour's body, the key good thing is his blood. A rib."

"That's the bone of my bones, the flesh of my flesh, my only Estelle, ah no, now it's Ah Shuo."

She pursed her lips lightly, as if she wanted to taste these two intimate words on the tip of her tongue, and repeated obsessively, "Ah Shuo..."

"Mom?!" Without being shy, Shenshang Shuo touched his ribs in panic, "What's going on..."

"That's a longer story, Monamour. Just now, I have the time to tell you."

"I'm Maupassant from [Mysterious Island], with superpowers—"Strong as Death"."

She smiled and looked towards the half-hidden stairs, "Can I continue now, Lord 'Silver Wolf'?"

......

"You should already know that Ah Shuo is an experimental subject, right?"

"Standardly speaking, I am the mother of this child." The beautiful woman threw down a thunderbolt lightly and skillfully. She was determined to expose those dirty memories to the sun.

Facing the shocked and frozen gazes, she smiled bleakly, and slowly put away her fake smile, "Let's start from the very beginning, when I met Monamour, I was not very old, twelve or three years old. Looks like a year old."

"At that time, Ah Shuo was just a small one, with a soft voice, lying on the steps and smiling at me." Maupassant seemed to recall some soft and sweet memory, his eyes blurred, "I was thinking , It’s really unbelievable that a human child can grow up to look like an angel.”

"At that time, the lunatic Dickens was next to me. Seeing that I really liked him, he asked me, 'Has your Highness decided?'" Her eyes turned cold in vain, as if she saw some wriggling moth, "I You should have understood then..."

"It was a complete scam." Unfortunately, by the time she realized it, she had irretrievably lost her most important treasure.

Fukuzawa Yukichi thought for a moment, as if thinking about the authenticity of this confession, and he asked, "Why did he ask for your opinion? As far as we know, Dickens is the leader of the 'Resurrection' experiment, Even as the saint of the mysterious island, he doesn't need to ask for your opinion."

"After all, isn't [Mysterious Island] Dickens's one-word speech?"

"You are right in saying that." Maupassant readily accepted this offensive statement, "It's just that the situation at that time was quite special."

"My supernatural ability - [Strong as Death], the effect of the ability is simply to extend life, and it can be activated for a short time, but if you want to have a long-term effect, you need a part of the holder.... She explained slowly, "You should know the danger of time travel..."

"So almost every experimental subject at that time had a part of my blood in their body."

She squeezed the space between her brows, gratefully took a sip of the hot tea that Shenshang Shuo handed over, slightly dispelled the chill on her body, and said with a wry smile, "But this level is obviously not enough, those children who traveled through the shuttle died without exception. in the process of transmission."

"I can just imagine Dickens going into a rage, so he came up with the worst idea."

Fukuzawa Yukichi glanced vaguely at the stunned Kamijou, and asked, "The idea... is to transplant one of your bones into Kamijou?"

"Yes." With the bloody scars of the past torn open, Maupassant closed his eyes in pain, "That day, this devil brought a group of children, just like picking a kitten or puppy to let them go. I'll pick one that fits my eye."

"I picked Ah Shuo right away, and I don't know if it's luck or misfortune for both of us..." She trembled like a slight convulsion, her white teeth lightly touched her lips, and then fell into the mouth. A warm embrace.

Maupassant blinked in surprise, looked at the silent God Shangshuo, and hugged him tightly.She laughed again, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and nodded to the complex-looking members of the Armed Detective Agency, "I made everyone laugh. I almost carried Monamour, so I couldn't hold back for a while..."

Yosano Akiko sighed, patted the noble and pathetic Canary on the shoulder sympathetically, and comforted, "I see, sorry, I misunderstood. Please rest assured, this is not your fault either. "

Her tone was sharp and mean, she seemed really angry, she gritted her teeth and added, "Such a villain will always commit many injustices and kill himself."

"Thank you for your understanding and consideration, but I am very clear-headed." Maupassant looked back at her tenderly, his fingers slowly stroking Shenshangshuo's soft hair, "I am also guilty, I am just an accomplice who drifts with the crowd, and I am not worth it." your forgiveness."

She cleared her throat, "As an atonement, please listen carefully to my next words."

"The rib in Ah Shuo's body is actually a half-finished product. At that time, Dickens didn't let me fully activate it in order to control Monamour."

Maupassant smiled contemptuously, "After all, Monamour's ability is so beautiful and powerful."

Is the point about looking good?my dear mother?Shenshang Shuo raised his head dumbfounded, paused, and chose to enjoy the warmth of this moment without making a sound.

"So I want to choose a time to fully activate this rib. I am very worried about the safety of my baby." She kissed the top of the white-haired boy's hair, and smiled under Edogawa's eyes that dared not speak out. , "With it, no matter how badly wounds Monamour receives, it won't let me lose him."

"There is another very important point, which is also what I am most worried about. When Dickens's ability is used, short-distance teleportation will not cause any harm. Based on what I know about this villain, he must be planning something sinister. As for the horror of the spatial ability..."

Sensing the dignified stares of everyone in the Armed Detective Agency, she nodded with satisfaction, "So I hope you can sound the alarm."

"In the next period of time, we may be separated for a while, Monamour."

"Believe me," Maupassant looked tenderly at the restless child, who she wanted to protect with all her strength, "I will always be with you."

Under the twilight, the soft cherry blossoms gently landed in the first snow in early winter, no longer distinguishing each other.

......

after dinner.

Atsushi Nakajima looked nervously at Ranpo Edogawa, who stayed behind, hiding behind the sofa, only showing a pair of beeping cat eyes, "Mr. Enkidu, why didn't Mr. Edogawa leave today... ...No, I mean he's staying over tonight?"

Come on, won't you beat him out?The little tiger looked expectantly at the grass-green long-haired young man, rubbing his hands secretly.

"It looks like this." Divine Weapon squinted its eyes threateningly at first, looked at the two sweet mouths that were shaking for some reason, and said with a smile, "It seems that the Master needs his more now. look."

"Let's take a look for the time being." He made a final decision, turned his head and saw Atsushi Nakajima's aggrieved expression, and couldn't help asking, "What's the matter? Did Atsushi have a bad stomach? His expression is ugly."

"No, no. I'm fine...Mr. Enkidu." The little tiger didn't know, and the little tiger felt bitter.

With Mr. Edogawa here, it is absolutely impossible for him to sleep with Mr. Kagami tonight!God knows, the body is cold, and the Mr. with a small frame is so comfortable to hold in the summer!And before going to bed, the husband will gently touch his hair and tell him a bedtime story...

Now it's all gone!

Atsushi Nakajima, who had a hot fur, became more and more withdrawn as he thought about it, so he threw himself on the mat and stopped talking.

"Mr. Ranpo..." Kamisami called out his lover's name in a low voice. The two of them were lying on the same bed, and they could feel the lover's sweet breath on their faces from the side profile.

He hugged his husband tightly from behind, with his white head resting against his neck, rubbing against him seemingly, as if absorbing nourishment.

Kamisami Saku's mind is very chaotic right now, he can't control it, he thinks about the worst over and over again, about the secrets of more than ten years ago, about the helpless mother... and also about Edogawa Ranpo.

Everything he never wants to let go of.
