I'm surviving in a love game

Luanbu fiddled with the glass bead in his hand for a while, then put it on the table again feeling bored, and let it spin around in a pile of puzzle pieces and model parts.

"It's so boring." He lay back in the seat, looked up at the ceiling, touched the corner of the table with his toes, and the seat shook slightly.

Hoshimiya Shiori, who has just sorted out all the relevant documents of recent cases, has not seen the report of the last mind control case, so it should not be resolved, so why is Ranpo sitting here so leisurely now... and When the documents were just handed in, the president didn't seem to be worried.

Eliminate all impossibilities, and the only thing left is——

"Mr. Ranpo, just got the latest news from the military and police, saying that they found traces of rioters."

Kunikida pushed the door open, with a hasty expression on his face, what he was holding should be what he said was "the latest news from the military and police", he walked towards Ranpo and Hoshimiya Shiori while straightening the The spectacle frame that was running and slid down, had completely calmed down its unsteady breathing when it walked in front of Chaos Bu.

"The efficiency of the military police is still very high." The document in Kunikida's hand aroused Ranpo's interest. He took the document and scanned it from top to bottom. The smile on the corner of his mouth showed a tendency to expand, " It's still fun."

Xinggong Shizhi asked suspiciously: "Riot. A person with supernatural powers? Is this a new case?"

Ranpo rushed ahead of Kunikida to answer Hoshimiya Shiori's confusion, he put the document aside casually, "It's another case that was drawn from the last case, just like following a vine and you will find a Fruit after fruit."

"So, the last case of the psychic user was the cause, but the current riot is the result?"

"No, there is no necessary causal relationship between the two, or it should be said that the two are carried out side by side."

"It's very likely that it was done by different people." Said Xinggong Shizhi, thinking secretly in her heart who planned this series of cases, "But the previous cases have been ignored?"

Ranpo shrugged, "This detective has been paying attention to the specific circumstances of the case." She always felt that Ranpo was ambiguous, or Kunikida's words were concise and clear, "As for the last case, I heard that Detective Ayatsuji has taken full responsibility."

what……

It's no wonder that Ranpo would be evasive when asked, Xinggong Shiori didn't say anything, but Ranpo protested: "It's the military and police's mistake for not choosing this detective!"

"Yeah, this is indeed their mistake. If you use Ranpo Detective, you can easily solve the case." Hoshimiya Shiori smoothed the hair very skillfully, and Ranpo said it was very useful to her. After every pause of her They all nodded in agreement, and raised their chins when she finished speaking, "Of course."

Hoshimiya Shiori's eyes shifted from the little expression of smugness to the document in his hand. In a densely packed page of text, a certain extremely conspicuous word directly pierced her sight.

——"Tiger-shaped supernatural powers."

Her smile froze.

Lying—trough—

Why even the human-tiger incident was brought forward? !

According to the current timeline, Atsushi Nakajima should stay in the orphanage well, right?

Perhaps Xinggong Shiori's heart fluctuated so much that the system asked in a low voice what's wrong.

【"What's wrong with you, Shiori?"】

"I thought it was the beginning of hell, I shouldn't have returned to this game in the first place."

Xinggong Shizhi reluctantly pursed her lips to ease the stiffness on her face, and found another excuse to go back to her desk.

"Now that Atsushi Nakajima has also appeared, the world is really messed up."

【"Ah, ah, ah, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge."] "Well...that's true, but I feel like I've heard it somewhere before." Shiori Xinggong hid her whole body in the high pile Behind the pile of documents, his face was clouded with sadness.

"Meow--?"

The cat who woke up jumped onto the table nimbly, leaned close to her arm, rubbed her arm with its furry head, looked at Shiori Hoshinomiya with moist eyes as if asking what happened to her, Hoshiya Gong Shizhi sighed, "It's nothing."

Since some things have already happened, it can only be faced head-on.

Hoshimiya Shiori straightened her upper body, her amber almond eyes shone with determination.

"Go with me?" Ranbu, with a strawberry-flavored lollipop in his mouth, was still a little lisp.

Hoshimiya Shiori nodded; "Well, because no matter what I say, I am Ranpo's assistant. As an assistant, it is normal to go with the detective to investigate the case."

"That's true, but..." Luanbu bit the hard candy into pieces, and a strong strawberry sweetness filled their entwined breaths, "I still have to tell the president about this matter."

If this is indeed the case according to the normal process, but judging from Fuze's previous instructions, she must not want her to intervene in this case.

Before Shiori Hoshimiya could come up with a reason to persuade Fukuzawa, she threw the lollipop stick into the trash can and rushed to the president's office.

"Ah, wait--!"

"Squeak-"

Hoshimiya Shiori's voice overlapped with Ranpo's door opening.

Hearing her voice, Luanbu even looked back at her.

Seeing him disappear behind the door, Shiori Xinggong felt that her chance was wasted this time.

【"There will be a way in the future."】The system comforted dryly.

"If there is really no other way, then I will have to find out by myself." Shiori Xinggong lowered her head, seemingly depressed, but she was actually thinking of a backup plan in her heart.

Suddenly, a corner of clothes jumped into her vision.

"What are you waiting for? Let's go out with Detective Ben."

"Ah? Then the president...agreed?"

"Well, of course I agreed."

Seeing Ranbu's calm appearance, Shiori Xinggong began to wonder if she had overreacted just now.

Following Ranpo out of the detective agency, she always felt something strange when she got off the elevator, so she confided her inner guess to Ranpo, "Ranbu...you probably didn't tell the president that we were going to investigate the case, did you? "

"Detective and eating snacks are equally important to this detective, so it doesn't matter which one you say."

As the elevator descended slowly, the sound of chaotic walking in the confined space was exceptionally clear.

Well, she knew he would be like this.

"That's it."

The elevator room was silent again, so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly. When she reached the ground floor, the elevator's notification sounded, and at the same time she seemed to hear a mobile phone notification.

When she got out of the elevator, she glanced at her mobile phone. It was strange that there was no news.

That should be the news of chaos.
