After resting for a while, Ah Xun took Quan Jinghua to bid farewell to Sang Dao Ci Wulang, and promised him to send the little girl back at night.

Secretly complaining about having a new apprentice and an old apprentice falling out of favor, she took a ride with two bags of peaches and Jinghua to the Red Brick Square. After getting off the car, the two walked into the wagashi shop in the alley together.

The boss hasn't shown his face for several days, and the customers who come to eat sweets are all in high spirits.It's impolite to take pictures with a mobile phone at will, but no one does it, but the eyes are getting bigger and bigger.

Nishikori happened to be in the store too, and brought a regular customer who bought tea to choose the wagashi to match.

"Xiao Jin!" She opened the door and came in. She was very happy when she saw her. She took the bag and went to the counter, found some peaches, put them in a bag in the store, and gave a bag to Jinzhi, and another bag to her guest. .

After receiving the gift, Nishikori introduced to the guests: "This is Kaoru, her husband's surname is Fukuzawa, and he and I are good friends."

Her guest was an elegant lady, she bowed slightly and exchanged greetings for a while, then took her presents and purchased tea supplies and left.

At this moment, Ah Xun picked two extra-plump peaches, washed them, cut them into small pieces, and put them on a plate to serve her: "Is it enough to ask your disciples to come over and ask me a question? I even made a special trip."

Last week, Jinzhi accidentally twisted his foot while going up and down the stairs, and it swelled up at that time. Yin, who stayed in the shop here, helped send him to the hospital and took medicine, but it still hasn't recovered quickly.She sat on a chair and ate peaches slowly with a stick, and took out a box from her sleeve pocket: "I received this, and I dare not repair it casually, so I will show you first."

Kaoru took out the disposable gloves from the drawer, put them on, took the box and opened it. It was an ancient lapel fan. Some of the fan bones were almost deformed. You can imagine what's going on inside without unfolding it.

"Where did you get it?" Such an old fan can't be used for daily use even if it is repaired. It's hard to understand how Nishikori's simple character would buy such a thing.

She smiled mysteriously: "Guess?"

"I can't guess." Ah Xun smiled and took out the fan and turned it over to check, and found a small family crest on the wooden handle at the bottom: "Huh? Something from Saito's family?"

"Yeah, yesterday a customer brought this to me to pay off the debt. He went bankrupt. Naturally, he had to find a way. I didn't expect to meet your old stuff."

Originally, she didn't want to agree, but after discovering this family crest, she added other things to settle the account. She also used the reason of the customer's purchase to drop by to give the fan: "Other old

I am afraid that all the relics have entered the museum and it will be difficult to get them back. Only those that have been handed down during the war still have some hope. "

"Thank you." Kaoru slowly unfolded the fan, and the color of Sakura Fubuki had almost faded.But it doesn't matter, just fill it up a little bit.She put away the fan and took out her bank card: "How many accounts have been offset?"

"I sent it here just to make you happy, so where do I need money from you? Am I short of that money?" Nishikori was full of confidence, and Kaoru poked her forehead with a smile like decades ago: " Come to me if you have anything difficult to draw.”

"Okay~"

While the customers were whispering "orange flavor", Mr. Fukuzawa led Edogawa to walk in randomly. Regular customers hugged the melons in their hands, buried their heads and ears and waited to see the king's duel.

Sure enough, when Jin Zhi saw that it was him coming, he snorted strangely and said, "It's Master Fuze? I have to go, lest the country people make the young master look unhappy."

Fukuzawa Yukichi was silent.

He and Ms. Nishikori, like Kaoru and Ranpo, don't want to see each other on weekdays.

Nishikori was angry that Kaoru would jump into the river in order not to hurt his reputation. After so many years, it has long become a habit to hate this person, and if one day she speaks in a normal tone, Mr. Fukuzawa will not be able to bear it.

Knowing that she was venting her anger for what happened back then, Kaoru patted her hand and shouted to send her back to the tea shop. She picked out a few peaches, washed them, cut them, and placed them on the seats specially reserved for them. Ranpo: "What kind of wagashi do you want to eat?"

Mr. Fukuzawa should have communicated with Ranbu on the way, and the childish young man stroked his chin: "Pikachu."

Well, after all, two roughly spherical shapes are stacked together. Originally, wagashi also has some unconventional shapes, and Pikachu is Pikachu.

Pikachu is the mascot of Yokohama, and both adults and children like it, but no adults would make such a request... So Edogawa Ranpo is undoubtedly just a child.

Ah Xun nodded to the customers who raised their heads to eat melons, pulled out the yellow balls and skillfully kneaded two balls, one big and one small.Someone helped to find the three-dimensional picture of Pikachu. She glanced at it and thanked her. She lowered her head and pinched twelve Pikachu in different poses in a short while.Put it in a box and put it on the seat, and called Jinghua to come and sit beside her.

Soon some customers asked Yinneng, who was in charge of the business, if he could order that kind of Pikachu and fruit, and the corner became quiet.

Luanbu pinched a Pikachu "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

: "Is that her? The girl you want to adopt."

"Yes." Ah Xun nodded: "Take her to the Supernatural Secret Service Section to surrender later."

"14 years old, you can get away with it soon." Leaving aside the legal practice that is stingy with imposing the death penalty, under normal circumstances, such a young girl would not be given a heavy sentence--a minor, being sentenced Coercion, and her background... He put on his glasses and looked at it: "So that's how it is." After finishing speaking, he bit off Pikachu's stomach with a "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and pushed the box in front of him towards the middle of the table: "It's hard to do it Let me share half of the famous detective's wagashi with you."

Ranbu was willing to share the snacks around his mouth. He must like this new sister very much. Ah Xun heaved a sigh of relief: "Let your colleagues come and bring what you want to eat."

Knowing that he didn't know the way, so he didn't say anything about coming to eat by himself, Luanbu really nodded: "Let A-Dun lead him, isn't he punished by sweeping the floor here with you?"

"Okay, just tell him what you want to eat." She didn't care about children.

Ranbu felt that it was almost done: "Yes."

"Let's go, I happen to have something to do, let's go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs together."

It was rare for him to take the initiative to send out a signal to get along well, and Kaoru followed suit: "Okay, I made an appointment with Sakaguchi in advance yesterday, and it's almost here soon."

……

Ango Sakaguchi looked at the "family of four" standing in a row in front of him, Edogawa Ranpo's arrogance was exactly the same as Saito Kaoru, and Izumi Kyoka's stern face was as similar as Fukuzawa Yukichi's—you guys How did it come together?

Do you even pick up children according to the other party's model?

He sighed, feeling a little dizzy.

Strictly speaking, this spring mirror flower should be the fault of the Supernatural Secret Service Division.

She did not protect herself at all during the assassination mission, her face had already been clearly exposed by surveillance cameras, and her identity was also found out—the orphan of the Quan family who was assassinated a few years ago.

It stands to reason that Jinghua's parents work for the Supernatural Secret Service, and their daughter should and should receive special care from the government after being assassinated by the enemy.However, Yokohama was still in chaos at that time. An orphaned and terrified little girl who neglected to rescue her went too late and hid in a slum like a mud cow into the sea without a trace. When she was discovered again, she became a serial murderer.

Everyone knows that she is only 14 years old, has no full capacity for action, and was kidnapped and coerced by PortMafia, which can be said to be extremely innocent.But, her existence slapped some people in the face again.It is precisely because they blame each other and react slowly that they will

Causing a series of sinister consequences.

Such people are often incapable of doing things, and they are the first to blame. They can't wait to describe Jinghua as a criminal who lacks empathy. She is either sentenced to death or life imprisonment/imprisonment, or at least put her in a mental hospital for enhanced monitoring.

Fortunately, there are honest people in the Supernatural Secret Service Division who oppose this hasty approach. Taneda Santou rejected the death penalty application for Izumi Kyoka, and while he was watching, his old friend Fukuzawa Yukichi proposed to adopt this orphan girl—— We are all old friends, and we all know what happened when we were young.Mrs. Fukuzawa is the orphan of the old Governor Saito. She was bullied to death in her early years. If it hadn't been for the fusion of other worlds, Fukuzawa might have been alone and lonely all her life.

It just so happened that his [Superior Man Doesn't Create] could control and restrain the abnormal state of [Yasha Baixue], so Zhong Tian went all out to agree to his application.

Fukuzawa Yuyoshimoto is a very self-disciplined and respected person, and he is very famous in the circle. It is not difficult to keep a girl.Once things return to the scope of the normal legal system, Jinghua only needs to receive regular psychological counseling. If she no longer breaks the law and has no record of vicious injury within a limited period of time, even the psychological counseling will be terminated.

Of course, there is no need for Kaoru to know about the operations and games behind this, as she is not good at this.

She understands the truth, so the operation is... forget it.

That's why Izumi Kyouka could appear in front of Ango Sakaguchi with all her tail, instead of being detained by the guards and taken away as soon as she entered the office hall of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"This is for you." He took out a document bag and handed it to Jinghua. "I-75-81A" was printed on the kraft paper: "Your application for crime reduction, and the [Yasha Baixue] incident investigation report. Fu Mr. Ze and Mrs. Fukuzawa have provided great help, and we must cherish this hard-won second chance."

The girl looked up at Kaoru first, then at Fukuzawa Yukichi, and then at Edogawa Ranpo. The young man stepped forward to take the file bag for her and slapped her: "It's rare that you are so smart~ha !"

He flicked the file bag up and down, and poked Jinghua's long and stubborn hair with the bag with a smile: "If you come to the detective agency to play with me, I will take you to eat snacks, and I will give you some soda water." you."

"Oh!" In the past, she was an only child and had no playmates. Later, she wandered the streets and had no time to take care of it. After entering PortMafia, she didn't even think about it. She hadn't seen much of the "magic objects" described by famous detectives.

Although he didn't understand, his attitude was very serious, a bit too serious, which made Luanbu extremely satisfied.

"Do you know the stirring stick? Gacha, and

Is there that kind of candy that can be used for mobile phone cards?I have so... so much, it will be very delicious if you hide in the cabinet and eat~"

He enthusiastically chatted to the little girl about the snacks and toys he owned, and nodded vigorously every time he described a kind of mirror flower, "Mmm! Mmmm! Huh..."

It always feels like something is going wrong.

After finishing this matter, Mr. Fukuzawa and Ranpo went to other departments, while Kaoru led Jinghua and sat in the municipal garden outside the gate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to look through the materials.

——[Yasha Baixue] is the special ability of Kyoka's mother.Mrs. Quan, who was controlled to swing the knife at Jinghua because of the enemy's assassination method, hastily transferred it to her daughter before she died, in order to let it protect her only child.

The supernatural ability faithfully fulfilled the master's order, even if the order required it to strike back and kill the old master last second.

This kind of mental stimulation was too intense. A few years later, Quan Jinghua subconsciously revised the memory, which made Kaoru who reviewed the scene feel that something was wrong anyway.

"Yasha Baixue is a relic left to you by your mother. When the phone is damaged, Yasha can always be with you and get along well with her." She touched the top of the little girl's head and sighed, "Fate makes people."

"We will fight for the old residence left by your parents for you. When you grow up, you can choose whether you want to live back or not. But now, you have to follow me."

Quan Jinghua sat quietly and listened to her narration, and there was a soft light in her eyes unconsciously.

After reading the materials, they waited for a while, and Fukuzawa Yukichi and Edogawa ran out after finishing their work. The two teams reunited and took the tram to the Armed Detective Agency.

The main reason is that Ranbu couldn't wait to show off his rich collection of snacks. In order to satisfy his wish, Kaoru decided to go to the detective agency first, and then send Jinghua back to the forest in the western suburbs.

It just happened to be able to let her know Atsushi Nakajima who was picked up.

So they took a few stops on the tram and walked for 10 minutes. They happened to meet a white-haired boy downstairs who ran away all the way.

Kaoru: "..."

You are too focused on running, don't you even look at the road?

"This is the Armed Detective Agency~" Hopping around in front of him, he pressed the elevator button, and the other three who preferred to take the stairs accompanied him to the fourth floor.

"The detective is back, how are you?"

Mr. Fukuzawa entered the office with the materials and handed over the introduction of Quan Jinghua to Ranpo.It is rare for this child to be so happy, and they will surely get along well in the future.
