"The Judgment Hall, is it also the legendary Hall of Ten Kings?" Zhongyuan Zhong couldn't help asking curiously as there was still some way to fly from the tunnel to the kingdom of heaven.

"Yes, the Hall of Ten Kings will conduct a systematic review of the life of the deceased, and according to the actual situation, will conduct multiple retrials seven days, 49 days, a hundred days, and one year after the death to ensure that everyone All the dead will get a fair trial." Ghost Lamp said calmly.

"It's so complicated. Wouldn't the deceased have to stay in the court for a whole year?" Oda Sakunosuke was a little curious, and took out his notebook and pen to start recording. At the same time, he regretted that Kunikida Doppo hadn't Officially joined the detective agency, such a wonderful picture can not be seen.

"At present, most of the deceased are in the first five halls, that is, when they arrive at the Yan Mo Hall, it is already confirmed that the trial has been completed and the judgment has been made. It is too complicated, so that after the first five courts have completed the trial, it is still impossible to make a judgment, and only this part of the people will re-trial again and again." The ghost lamp turned to them and explained, "In the past, everyone would have to go through ten The trial of the court, but now the population is exploding, if everyone has to go through the trial of ten courts, it will be too slow, and the procedure can be regarded as simplified."

"However, even if the procedures are simplified, the judgment in the court will still never go wrong." Ghost Lantern saw that several writers took out pens and paper and started to record, so he simply said a few more words to them, "After many rounds of trials, the dead will get three results, going to heaven, going to reincarnation, and going to hell. In terms of proportion, taking 1 dead as an example, the number of people who go to heaven after the trial may be only one or two people. , directly entering reincarnation accounted for one-tenth of the remaining."

"The rest will go to hell?" This ratio is a bit scary, and Zhong Yuanzhong couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Theoretically yes, but considering that among the remaining 80.00 out of [-] people, more than [-]% of them committed minor crimes during their lifetime, and the sentence in hell is not long. In addition, there are offerings from relatives, so more than half of them will go through the simple hell and go to reincarnation after pulling out their tongues." Ghost Lamp said soothingly.

"No, it's a big problem, okay? What does it mean to pull out your tongue? It sounds so painful!" Osamu Dazai subconsciously covered his mouth after speaking.

"What's the problem?" Gui Deng said righteously, "I had to serve nearly a hundred years in prison, but now I can re-enter reincarnation just by pulling out my tongue. Such a good thing, if it wasn't for the population explosion in the past hundred years, I wouldn't even think about it. Think about it!" Ghost Lantern said, looking at him seriously with surprise.

"Mr. Ghost Lamp, what you said just now is that their sentence is not long, right?" Atsushi Nakajima asked weakly, raising his hand.

"Well, those within a hundred years are of course small problems, not long at all." Ghost Lamp said naturally.

A hundred years is actually a short period of time. What kind of horrible place is hell?What kind of ghost is this person? !

For a moment, this thought flashed through everyone's mind.

"Then, are the remaining people just..." Zhong Yuan continued to ask the previous question in a low voice.

"Yes..." Ghost Lantern nodded very neatly, "After all, no matter what era it is, it is always easier to commit crimes than to accumulate merit, especially in the current information age, many people wear a mask on the Internet. All my negative emotions are vented on other people, there are more and more such things, and there are even people in hell who are considering whether to divide such crimes into finer things, and we are also very troubled."

"In addition to some practical problems that arise with the development of society, such as the chastity problem that arises due to factors such as sexual openness, and how to convict technical errors that occur due to technological innovation, and for example, in the current situation of material abundance, what This level of waste should be condemned." Ghost Lantern's face was also very serious, "Hell is also facing various problems."

"Ah, I forgot to add, no matter what, derailment and explicit extravagance will definitely be sent to hell." Ghost Lantern said seriously.

"I don't think we need to worry about these issues." Dazai Osamu said suddenly, "After all, the people in our agency look more like single dogs who are single."

"Shut up, if you want to be a single dog, you can do it yourself." Zhong Yuan Zhong also subconsciously complained, and suddenly felt wrong, "Wait a minute, I remember that you seem to be very popular in school, right? The young girl handed you a love letter."

After finishing speaking, he quickly asked Ghost Lantern: "Mr. Ghost Lantern, do you want to be punished to go to hell if you date several people at the same time?"

"This is the problem we are currently having a headache with." Ghost Lantern touched his chin and said, which immediately surprised Osamu Dazai, and quickly said: "I didn't agree to their request for dating, and I refused them in a very gentlemanly way!"

"What Dazai said is true." Oda Sakunosuke, who went to Tokyo University to pick up Dazai Osamu several times, said that what the other party said was true. Every time he went to pick up people, he could see Dazai Osamu politely rejecting girls.

"Okay, the kingdom of heaven is here." Seeing the light not far away, Ghost Lantern decisively ended the topic, "Welcome to Gaotianyuan."

The place in front of you is an endless beautiful scenery. There are clouds of various colors floating in the blue sky, grasslands full of wonderful flowers, lush trees make crisp sounds when they are blown by the wind, and occasionally animals pass by between the grass and trees. Can bring a gust of wind.

"It's so beautiful!" Yosano Akiko couldn't help but sigh with emotion while pulling Akutagawa Yin.

"This is a sightseeing area." The ghost lantern didn't let them stay for too long, and flew directly to the edge of a mountain with clouds, "Further ahead is the border area between China and Japan, which is also an important part of this trip. The tourist site is Taoyuan Township, but now we will visit the Gaotianyuan tourist area first."

The sightseeing area of ​​Gaotianyuan is a small town. The town is built on the mountain, and is divided into two by the gurgling stream in the middle. There are small boats in the stream. The end of the street can be seen at a glance, and all kinds of flowers are blooming on both sides of the road. Although there are many street vendors on the side of the road, there are no guards inside. Only a few restaurants and tea houses can be seen full of customers, and there are still long queues at the bottom of the road.

"You guys are very lucky. Today there is a lottery in the shopping street in the tourist area. You can get a lottery ticket if you buy anything here. You can go there to try your luck. If you use the money, you can use the current Japanese yen. It's ok." Ghost Lantern explained, "However, the rewards in the kingdom of heaven are always strange, so don't expect too much."

When the ghost lamp was being introduced here, Edogawa Ranpo on the side was stiff. Yukichi the big cat was the first to notice his strangeness, and quickly poked Fukuzawa Yukichi on the side.

Fukuzawa Yukichi, who came back to his senses, quickly looked at Edogawa Ranpo, "Ranpo?"

Yukichi Maomao looked left and right, and finally pointed at the two people on the side of the road who kept waving to them. Fukuzawa Yukichi turned his head to look over, and then saw the man and woman. They were wearing beautiful kimonos from the kingdom of heaven. The ribbons on the women's kimonos are still floating automatically.

The unusually similar faces of those two people and Edogawa Ranpo already explained a lot of things, Fukuzawa Yukichi walked down from the clouds first, and walked over there with Edogawa Ranpo.

Yukichi Maomao looked at the situation over there with a little curiosity, and when he was hesitating whether to follow, Fukuzawa Yukichi had already taken it along with him.

Yuji Maomao immediately followed happily, and then saw the men and women over there walking towards Edogawa at a random pace.The female among them rushed over happily, hugged Ranbu's head, and rubbed it vigorously.

The man on the side also came over with a smile and hugged his son into his arms.

"Father, mother..." Edogawa Ranpo couldn't help but also hugged them with his backhand, and couldn't help crying loudly.

"Okay, okay, don't cry." Edogawa's father watched his son's crying face with a smile for a while, and then said aloud, "Your companions have all gone shopping in the commercial street, but there are still people there. There's always someone waiting for you."

"Woo, woo, president, the president won't laugh at me..." Edogawa cried out of breath in Ranbu.

"Thank you so much all these years." Edogawa's mother let go of her son and bowed to Fukuzawa Yukichi and Yukichi the big cat over there.

"I also helped out!" Edogawa Ranpo retorted loudly with red eyes.

"Ranbu, children don't interrupt when adults are talking." Edogawa's mother smiled kindly, but succeeded in making Edogawa Ranbu shut up quickly.

"And, do you think we haven't seen it?" Edogawa's father couldn't help stretching out his hands to grab his son's cheeks, "We also came back at night during the Obon Festival, and then I saw how you were in your dream Rely on Mr. Fukuzawa, and how he was raised by that big cat Mr. Cat."

Edogawa Ranbo froze immediately, but the next second his mother patted his head, "You have worked so hard all these years, Ranbu, you did a good job."

"Hmm..." Edogawa Ranpo hugged his mother again and cried loudly.

Letting his son hold his wife and cry, Edogawa's father walked towards Fukuzawa Yukichi and Yukichi Maomao with a smile, "It's really thanks to you for taking care of this child Ranpo all these years."

"No, Ranpo really helped me a lot." Fukuzawa Yukichi shook his head, "It's up to me to thank you for bringing this child into the world."

Yukichi Maomao also bowed slightly to Edogawa's father in front of him.

Mother Edogawa patted her son on the back and said loudly with a smile: "Okay, don't waste time, let us take you on a tour of this place. Things in heaven are still very interesting, especially Don’t you want to try the dim sum here, Ranbu?”

As soon as he heard the sweets from Heaven, Ranpo Edogawa raised his head curiously, his eyes sparkling.

"Let's go!" Edogawa's father smiled and led them into the dim sum shop on the side. The dim sum shop was divided into two parts wonderfully. Most of the cabinets were filled with common dim sum, and the other In the specially placed low cabinet were snacks that Edogawa Ranpo and Fukuzawa Yukichi had never seen before, and there was also a "for animals" sign on the cabinet.

"Not only heaven, but also hell. There are special cabinets for animals, isn't it interesting?" Edogawa's father said with a smile.
