cat blues

There has been a very strange case of missing girls in Kyoto recently. In just one week, five girls under the age of 25 have disappeared.

And their disappearance has no trace at all. One of them disappeared suddenly when commuting to get off work or school, and one even disappeared suddenly on the way home with his classmates.

When the first reporter’s parents went to report the case, the police station in Kyoto didn’t take it too seriously. After all, the first missing person was a 23-year-old office worker, although he had been missing for more than 24 hours , but because there are many other possibilities—such as drinking too much and not contacting, staying at the boyfriend’s house and so on—so the police didn’t pay much attention to it, and said that the pair said their daughter Absolutely no problems, and no boyfriend's parents sent him off.

But then came one after another and parents came to report that their daughter was missing, and most of the missing were students under the age of 18, and there was even a girl who just turned 14 this year, the situation immediately changed. .

The Kyoto Police Department immediately formed a task force, but even so, a young girl disappeared for unknown reasons that day.

No matter how you look at this situation, it is not right, so the very experienced Kyoto Police Agency is trying to find a way, and at the same time reported the case to the headquarters of the Police Agency, the Supernatural Secret Service Division, and the Imperial Tower. Many people are really not sure whether it is an ordinary criminal with a high IQ, a person with supernatural powers, or someone who is not a person at all.

Although Kyoto is a thousand-year-old capital, theoretically speaking, there are onmyojis responsible for guarding Kyoto. However, the family of Onmyojis guarding Kyoto, the Hanakaiin family, has become entangled with ordinary people since the Meiji Restoration. A split occurred.

The same is to protect ordinary people. The Guochang Lu family of Onmyoji chose to enter the world, so Huakaiyuan chose to be born, and their reasons for being born are also very good and powerful. They think that they are not in the same world as ordinary people. Simply put, they look down on ordinary people.

In fact, many powerful people have this kind of thinking, but Huakaiyuan family seems to be particularly serious, and they are determined not to change.

If the special thing about this world is that there are demons and ghosts and onmyojis, the arrogance of the Huakai family can be understood, but since more than two centuries ago, there have been shadows of people with supernatural abilities. It is not even an urban legend anymore, there are even a bunch of kings in Japan.

For this reason, it seems a little strange and out of place for the Huakai family to maintain such an inexplicable and unreasonable arrogance.

It's just because the Huakai Academy's family has been diligently subjugating demons and demons, so although they have less and less communication with ordinary people, they have not been expelled from the Yinyang Dao.

But that's all. For decades, Huakaiyuan's family didn't even have any contact with the police, so after the Kyoto police discovered that something was wrong, they didn't contact the Onmyoji family in Kyoto as soon as possible. Instead, they reported the matter. up.

Then the case file was transferred to the Armed Detective Agency. It was sent just this morning, and it was also received from the Police Department and the Supernatural Secret Service Division.

Edogawa Ranpo accompanied Yukichi Tomomi to attend the entrance ceremony of Akutagawa Gin and the others. Osamu Dazai took it out to have a look, and then he judged in an instant that this was not done by humans, but by monsters. Even if capable people can catch people, they won't catch them so arrogantly and frequently.

That's right, the biggest evidence that convinced Osamu Dazai that the person who committed the crime was not a person is that this guy arrests people too frequently and has no intention of restraining himself.

He has a clear direction for his attack target, strikes frequently and does not take the surroundings into account at all. This is not like what humans can do, but more like a hungry monster looking for food.

This point became even more certain after Edogawa Ranpo also read the case file.

This is definitely the work of monsters.

Edogawa Ranpo immediately became unhappy. He wanted to go to Kyoto with Dazai Osamu and the others to investigate the monster case, and he didn't want to fly to Hokkaido alone with a boring gourd Oda! What is there to see in Hokkaido in April, to see the bare lavender fields?If you want to enjoy cherry blossoms, you don't want to watch it at home, do you have to travel so far?

But if you are not happy, you are not happy. The commission from Hokkaido has been agreed a long time ago. If you really want to reject it, you may damage the reputation of the Armed Detective Agency. Fukuzawa Yukichi may not care, but Edogawa Ranpo cares very much!He just said what he was told, since it was a group of goldfish anyway, he would not be afraid of being spit bubbles by goldfish, but if they spit bubbles to a detective agency, Ranpo Edogawa said he couldn't stand it.

To be honest, he wanted to go to Kyoto not only because youkai were rare and wanted to see them, but also because the girl who was captured by youkai might be in danger now.Although it is impossible for them to overthrow all the monsters, at least if they go with him, it will be faster to follow the clues, right?

At that time, will there be fewer dead people?

For a moment, Edogawa Ranpo felt his own growth.

"If you are in Kyoto, it will be fine." Before the plane took off, Oda Sakunosuke comforted him, "Dazai and the others are all there, and the president also took Yosano over there, and Mr. Yukichi is there. It'll be fine."

"I know." Edogawa Ranpo nodded, presumably that's why he and Sakunosuke Oda went on a business trip together. The situation in Kyoto is much more serious than that in Hokkaido, and they are dealing with monsters, indeed. One Osamu Dazai and one Chuya Nakahara can be configured, the rest and Yosano Akiko are to save people, while the president is dispatched to carry out personnel dispatching and command coordination, and Mr. Yukichi is the biggest logistics Guarantee, but the more important thing is that Yuji Big Cat will definitely not let them all go out, right?

"In short, let's finish our business trip in Hokkaido quickly, and then come over to deal with things in Kyoto!" Edogawa Ranpo encouraged himself.

For this reason, Oda Sakunosuke specially rewarded him with a candy.

"Damn it, Ranpo-sama is no longer a child." Looking at the candy being handed over, Edogawa Ranpo said angrily.

"Do you want to eat?" Oda Sakunosuke asked.

"Yes!" The detective swallowed the candy in one gulp.

On the other hand, Osamu Dazai, who said he was going to go fishing to enforce the law, didn’t just say it out of his mouth. He took out new information on the Shinkansen, “I have asked Hanako to check it. In fact, the recent missing persons It’s not just the ones reported in Kyoto, there are cases of missing girls in the surrounding areas of Kyoto, including Osaka, Nara and Hyogo prefectures.”

Osamu Dazai's expression was also very serious, "Not only in the Kansai area, but also in the Kanto area, there are reports of young girls being abducted, and even in Yokohama."

"Native to Yokohama?" Nakaya raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"The clue came from PortMafia." Osamu Dazai explained casually, "PortMafia just accepted a small organization, but it was later found out that the real business content of that small organization was actually human trafficking, so this The small organization was wiped out by the black lizard people, but all the people who should be sold have been sold to Kyoto. According to the list of personnel found recently, almost all of them are women, only a few men, men All of them are children. As for the source of the population, I don’t need to talk about it, do I?”

"Radium Bowl Street..." Nakahara Chuya said, frowning.

"But now is not the time to complain about this cancerous tumor in Yokohama." Osamu Dazai waved his hand, convinced that those who came to Yokohama to serve as the mayor of the job, but turn a blind eye to this big pit, will go to hell, saying Maybe he can set his future life goals, such as filling in that hole?This seems pretty good, at least better than committing suicide and then being dragged away by a ghost lamp to serve your sentence?Osamu Dazai was distracted for a moment, but he quickly brought his thoughts back, "Well, in short, there is definitely something wrong with Kyoto now. There may be some big monster resurrection over there, but there are no corresponding rumors on the Internet. The information channels I found didn’t match up with that aspect. It’s really a headache, there is only this level of news.”

"Thank you, Dazai." Fukuzawa Yukichi nodded.

"But why are most of the missing persons female?" Yosano Akiko was a little puzzled.

"This seems to be because of why "women are more pure when they are children"?In short, I thought it was superstition in the past, but now it seems that it may not be completely superstition. "Osamu Dazai explained.

"Is there such a saying?" Zhong also showed surprise.

"Chuya, you don't really need to repair your brain any more." Dazai Osamu showed a very obvious dislike, "I have seen cunning ghosts and been to hell, and you don't know that you need to learn to master it a little bit. Do you have any knowledge of that?"

"You guy..." Zhongyuan Zhong also only felt that his fist was hardened. He knew that what the other party said made sense, but couldn't this guy speak well?Don't be so weird!

The big cat Yuji sat on the other side of them. There are still relatively few people going to Kyoto at this time, and the train compartment is not full of people. At this time, the cat Yuji came over curiously and purred a few times. They looked at the cat language translator in the middle of the table together, "Then what happened to Dazai talking about changing women's clothes?"

"Isn't this guy trying to spoof me?" Zhong Yuanzhong couldn't help complaining.

"That's not true." Dazai Osamu showed a helpless look, "That's why I said, Chuya, you need to learn to use your brain, so it really is a slug, a soft-bodied creature without a brain?"

"Dazai..." Fukuzawa Yukichi lightly tapped the table, indicating that this kind of teasing can almost stop, and then he took the initiative to explain, "Chuya, we can't see monsters under normal conditions."

Zhong Yuanzhong was also stunned for a moment, and then realized this super critical thing.

That's right, they couldn't see monsters, and no one in their group could see monsters at all except Yuji Big Cat!

This is very embarrassing.

"Actually, slugs should still be able to see them if they want to, but it's probably because he subconsciously feels that as an ordinary human being, he can't see those things, so he can't see them now." Osamu Dazai took a picture of Nakahara Nakahara Ye's shoulder, showing a pitiful smile, "It's really useless, Chuya."

"Calm down, both of you." Yosano Akiko tapped the table with her fingers, "So Dazai, you planned to find Nakaya and pretend to be a girl as bait?"

"That's right, after all, if you are looking for someone based on the degree of purity, Zhongye will definitely be ouch." He was halfway through, but Zhongyuan Zhongya couldn't bear to pinch the flesh on the back of his hand.

"It hurts, hurts..." Osamu Dazai reprimanded Chuya Nakahara for his barbaric behavior, shaking his hands, "Chuya, you are too much!"

"Shut up..." Zhong Yuanzhong also said bitterly, because at this moment, he found that he was a little bit convinced!

This is too scary!

As for why not let the real girl go with Yosano Akiko, please, she is a nanny, although she can breathe and heal, but there is no reason to let the nanny go when the main force is still there?

Yosano Akiko was stunned for a moment and said, "But your height..." One is 1, and the other is 170. It doesn't look like the type who can pretend to be a girl, does it?

Osamu Dazai blew on the back of his hand, "You can pretend to be a foreigner, you know, I saw news about foreign tourists disappearing for no reason in Osaka."

"Wow, now it has risen to the level of diplomatic affairs." Yosano Akiko read.

"In short, if you want to solve it as soon as possible, the most convenient way is to sneak into the monster's lair from Nakaya." Osamu Dazai finally stopped making trouble, and said seriously: "But now I feel that I really need to go there together."

"Why are you following?" Zhong Yuan frowned, "I won't be able to take you out then."

"There's no need for that, I'm sure I can escape." Osamu Dazai wasn't worried about escaping at all, "The most important thing is, if you're only allowed to go in by yourself, you might just make a fuss." field?"

"I see." Zhong Yuanzhong also took a deep breath and stopped talking.

"Let's go, let's go change clothes!" As soon as he arrived in Kyoto, Osamu Dazai took Nakahara Nakaya to the hotel room to change clothes, and the clothes he wanted to change were brought by the big cat Yukichi.

"What? Mr. Yukichi, you...!?" Nakahara Nakaya looked at Yukichi the big cat, feeling like he was looking at a traitor.

Yukichi Maomao shook his head hastily, it really didn't expect that the women's kimono that Osamu Dazai asked him to prepare was actually for the two of them to wear, and these two sets were failures made when he first came into contact with tailoring. , because I was not good at tailoring at that time, although it was a lady's kimono with beautiful patterns, it was too big, and later I put it away because I was distressed by the fabric. You must know that this is Yuzen cloth. Really come in handy?

But Zhongyuan Zhong didn't want this kind of "use" at all. He almost struggled to refuse, but he had to admit that under the current situation, it seemed that the two of them really got the news the fastest when they went fishing as bait.

"But can the two of us really catch fish when we go out?" Nakahara Nakaya held a corner of the cloth with one hand, and looked at the corner of his eyes twitchingly. The kimono with the pattern of chrysanthemums on a black background, and even took out two wigs from the bag he was carrying.

"It's ok. Before we set off, the Kyoto government has already issued a message to tell the girls to minimize outdoor activities. Once school and work are over, they should try to go back together when there are many people, and try not to be alone." Osamu Dazai thought a bit. I wanted to change the hairstyle of the long wig in my hand, but Yuji the big cat held it down because of the disturbance, so I had to continue to be a puppet honestly, "But we are foreign tourists, so it's only natural that we don't know. "

"But..." Zhong Yuanzhong still hesitated.

"Don't worry, Chuya, I've already chosen the time and place, so." Osamu Dazai, who had already changed into a kimono, looked at Yukichi cat walking towards Chuya Nakahara with a smile, "Don't struggle, dwarf."

"Shut up, I'm not short!" Zhong Yuan, who was finally annoyed, looked at the big cat Yuji who was eagerly coming over, and endured it.

But there are some things that I really can't bear, "You didn't say you need to put on makeup!"

Nakahara, who was wearing a peony pattern with a red base, almost didn't jump up when he saw Yukichi the big cat turned out the cosmetic bag from the bag.

"Chuya, are you stupid? Even if you pretend to be a foreigner, you can tell that we are men just by looking at our faces, right?" Osamu Dazai looked at him with the expression of looking at a fool, "Sit down and don't move around, Mr. Yukichi will put on makeup for us .”

"..." Nakahara Nakahara opened his mouth wide, really looked like a fool watching Yukichi the big cat quickly transformed Dazai Osamu from a handsome and extraordinary man into a beautiful girl through a pass of make-up, and what's more terrible Yes, Dazai Osamu brought his own bandage, and Nakahara Chu also brought his own Choker. Doesn’t this cover the Adam’s apple?No wonder Dazai insisted on changing to a wider one when he was going out.

After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but muttered: "Mr. Yuji knows how to make up? I didn't mean the kind for the president..."

"Oh, I saw Mr. Yukichi transformed Xie Ye, and then it seemed that because Xie Ye was so successful in makeup, many people wanted to strike up a conversation with Xie Ye that day, but she beat them back." Dazai Zhizhi said without changing his face that Nakahara Chuya seemed incredible at first, but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't feel that it was inconsistent at all.

When Chuya came back to his senses, the person standing in front of him could already be regarded as a super beauty at the level of a goddess. Dazai was originally thin and his frame was relatively slender. Although he had muscles, they were not obvious. At this time, wearing them completely concealed his figure. Kimono, meticulous make-up, and a wig to make a demure look, this fucking can make his heart flutter, okay?

If it weren't for the fact that he was too tall, the person in front of him really wouldn't be able to tell that he was a man before! ! ! !

Zhongyuan Zhong also looked at Mr. Yuji who was walking towards him with satisfaction, and couldn't help swallowing, he had already done this, so what are you afraid of?In the end, he had no choice but to close his eyes and let the big cat Yuji do what he wanted.

Yuji Maomao would not be polite to him, and took out various tools to paint the handsome boy's facial features more beautifully in minutes.

When Nakahara heard Yukichi the big cat grunting, he opened his eyes a little uneasy, and then saw Osamu Dazai frantically taking pictures of him, "Go to hell, bastard!"

Nakahara Chuya immediately wanted to punch him. At this moment, Yuji the big cat took out a mirror from the side and put it in front of him. He knew before that his face was considered beautiful, but he didn't expect that after makeup, this, this, this...

"Mr. Yukichi is amazing. This is the modern oiran makeup, right? It perfectly complements this little guy." Dazai Osamu kept talking on the sidelines, and the angry Nakahara was also furious.

"Okay, stop messing around, it's time to go get down to business." Osamu Dazai suddenly retracted his originally irritating attitude, and said with a serious face, "Chuya, try not to open your mouth later, let me talk if you want to talk." .”

He had already changed his falsetto during his speech, and it sounded very similar to a woman, "If you know, just follow."

"Tsk, I see." After Nakaya finished speaking, he also put on another wig like him, and then walked out with Osamu Dazai.

"I lost..." Yosano Akiko blurted out these two words as she saw the two people in kimonos walking over in sandals.

"Huh? Miss Xie Ye, what did you just say?" Zhong Yuanzhong also asked with some doubts.

"Nothing." Yosano Akiko shook her head resolutely, and she also regained her serious expression and asked, "Dazai, are you sure you are going here? This is Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. Going to such a place is really possible." Did you catch any fish?"

"Yo Xiano, haven't you noticed? Where did the girls who haven't seen recently disappeared?" Dazai suddenly smiled at her and said.

"Tsk..." Yosano Akiko turned her head away in displeasure, if she could keep up with Osamu Dazai's brain circuit, she wouldn't be slipped away by him to report often.

Fukuzawa Yukichi also saw the appearance of the two of them now, but the president of the Armed Detective Agency is the president after all. He was not moved at all, but calmly said: "Although saving people and obtaining information are important, I am more important." Concerned about your safety, please make sure to put your own safety first."

"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine for the little dwarf to fight head-on, and the rest is on me." Osamu Dazai changed back to his unruly appearance, and said to the president with a smile.

"Let's go." Zhong Yuanzhong also kicked him a little bit unhappily.

"Chuya, I told you to dress like this, at least be gentle." Osamu Dazai said helplessly, "Also, don't talk outside."

Seeing them leave, Fukuzawa Yukichi also took Yosano Akiko to the police station in Kyoto. The Yukichi big cat wanted to follow, but it couldn't help when it went to the police station. It would probably be the same as Akiko Sit on the bench?At the very least, Akiko can become a god-level big tit, so can she only be a back-up chef?

Yuji Maomao is a little melancholy, this monster in Kyoto is too much, although it has seen good things, but it is wrong to eat people, and they have to go all the way here on a business trip, whispering in their hearts Mi curse that guy for a second!
