what's wrong with my vest

Edogawa Ranpo said that on purpose.

Don't get me wrong, Edogawa Ranpo certainly didn't mean to accuse Sakurai Hato... maybe, but it wasn't because Sakurai Hato approached them with a purpose, but because the other party knew that they were awkward and unwilling to let it go let's talk.

What Edogawa Ranpo just said is true, but this inference has a time limit.

——That was the period when "Edogawa Ranpo" first came into contact with the Armed Detective Agency.

Edogawa Ranpo is not a god, all his conclusions are deduced from the clues, so at the beginning, because Sakurai himself was really at a stage of being confused and trying to complete the task, Sakurai acted The intention behind it induced Edogawa Ranpo to a certain extent to deduce a wrong result.

Sakurai's mission is related to gaining approval from others, so Edogawa Ranpo thought that "Edogawa Ranpo" wanted to find the feeling of the past from his own armed detective agency.

However, with the improvement of the synchronization rate of Sakurai, some of his subconscious small movements are more and more in line with the real setting of "Contractor Ranpo", vaguely conveying to the outside world that he first came to this world the goal of.

It was also because of this that Edogawa Ranpo realized that something was wrong.

Edogawa Ranpo didn't express anything special on the surface, and secretly bypassed Atsushi Nakajima and others who were easy to reveal their secrets, and simply communicated with Osamu Dazai and Yukichi Fukuzawa.

Fukuzawa Yukichi pondered for a moment and finally decided to observe for a while. Edogawa Ranpo had no objection to this, but Dazai Osamu secretly put a bug on Sakurai Makoto without telling them.

In order not to leak any flaws, Osamu Dazai never fiddled with the monitoring equipment in front of Sakurai or other members of the Armed Detective Agency, and checked regularly every night.

For quite a period of time, Sakurai's performance was normal, and just when Osamu Dazai thought the bug had been released for nothing, Sakurai ran away.

After getting the news, Osamu Dazai immediately went to check the recorded content of the bug. When he heard Dostoevsky's voice, his face sank and he frowned subconsciously.

Sakurai and Dostoevsky did not talk a lot, but the amount of information revealed was quite large. Although it would not directly overthrow Edogawa Ranpo's previous reasoning, the flesh and blood filled on this skeleton Not quite right.

The topic over there was still going on, and Osamu Dazai didn't care about anything else. He immediately took the monitoring equipment and came to the Armed Detective Agency, skipping a series of complicated antecedents, and directly broadcasting the useful information to the public.

This is why Dazai Osamu and Edogawa Ranpo reasoned to the correct conclusion when some key information that Yoshi Sakurai should have disclosed to Dostoevsky was missing.

Based on the conversation between Dostoyevsky and Sakurai, as well as information known to Edogawa Ranpo himself, the Armed Detective Agency tried to restore the "real" "Edogawa Ranpo".

——"Edogawa Ranpo" came with the purpose of snatching their world from the beginning, and he also hid his aggressive purpose very well during the process of meeting for the first time.

With the opponent's acting skills and Edogawa Ranpo's observation ability, this was an impossible task, but no one thought that "Edogawa Ranpo" would not hesitate to forcefully open his past wounds and insist on his own. plan.

Under the impact of the sudden information brought by the other party, the attention of Osamu Dazai and Ranpo Edogawa was smoothly diverted to other places. In this way, "Ranpo Edogawa" successfully concealed his real goal and set a new goal for himself. Explanation for occasional oddities that may occur.

——After all, it is normal for a person who has experienced such a cruel experience to have a little incomprehensible small movements, right?

He arranged everything very securely, but he still missed one point after all - "Edogawa Ranpo" is not as ruthless as he imagined.

Under the concern of everyone in the Armed Detective Agency, his attitude was softened and his determination was bit by bit swallowed.

Just like "Edogawa Ranpo" and Dostoevsky once said, the people in the Armed Detective Agency are different from what he remembered, and they can be said to be "the most familiar strangers".

The original plan of "Edogawa Ranpo" needed to "kill" everyone in the Armed Detective Agency, which was decided from the very beginning.

But when things came to an end, he couldn't do anything.

"Edogawa Ranpo" doesn't want this group of members of the armed detective agency who sincerely feel sorry for themselves and accept the worst of themselves to disappear.

But at the same time, "Edogawa Ranpo" can't forget the family members who have really gone through many difficulties with him.

The two cannot coexist, which is an unsolvable proposition.

Looking at Sakurai who was silent and silent, Edogawa stomped his feet in disorder: "Aren't you going to explain?"

"I have nothing to explain." Sakurai shook his head, his voice unwavering, "Things are just as you imagined. I originally came to this world to replace you, and now I was discovered, that's all."

Edogawa Ranpo became even angrier after hearing this: "Is this enough?"

When Edogawa Ranpo exposed Sakurai's old background in front of everyone, he didn't want him to admit it, but wanted to give him a chance to explain.

Although everyone in the detective agency knows the difficulty of "Edogawa Ranpo", the other party really owes them an explanation... The people in the armed detective agency may not care too much, but the perpetrator explained himself and the victim voluntarily tolerated it. The meaning is different.

Of course Edogawa Ranpo knew that Yoshi Sakurai had changed a long time ago.

When Osamu Dazai said what Yoshi Sakurai said when he and Dostoyevsky got along, Yoshi Sakurai didn't even blink his eyes, and didn't even have the will to reach out and check the bug on his body.

This is what happened when Yo Sakurai said he hated Osamu Dazai.

This still doesn't prove that Yoshi Sakurai trusts and even relies on the Armed Detective Agency, what else can prove it?

really. The purpose of "Edogawa Ranpo" was not pure at the beginning, but he has already regretted it.

Whether it is Edogawa Ranpo himself or other people in the Armed Detective Agency, they will be willing to give him a chance to reform.

But there is a prerequisite for this, that is, the opponent needs to take that crucial step forward.

Facing Edogawa Ranpo's "accusation", Sakurai Yo was a little aggrieved, but he knew that Edogawa Ranpo was telling the truth, so he didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that the atmosphere on Edogawa Ranpo's side was still tense, Dazai Osamu thought for a while, and intervened, trying to ease the tense atmosphere a little:

"We don't need you to help us clear the way, but you can face the difficulties with us."

Dazai Osamu here is almost a rare frankness, and Edogawa Ranpo on the other side became more and more angry, and then said: "Do you want to carry everything on your shoulders alone? Master Ranpo doesn't remember I am that kind of person.”

Indeed, Edogawa Ranpo's motto is "As long as I'm fine, everything is fine."

People with this kind of motto should not become the type who will fight everything for others.

Sakurai Yao lowered his head and murmured softly, "...Isn't it because you all did this before."

Deduction is technology, not magic, just like it is impossible to deduce whether an ordinary passer-by stepped out with his left leg or right leg first when he went out this morning. If there are some details that are not supplemented by Sakurai, the people of the Armed Detective Agency Never know.

Sakurai himself has the desire to confide, and he doesn't mind revealing details that can supplement the background of the story, but the vest of "Edogawa Ranpo" is vaguely making an appointment to stop Sakurai Yao from telling everything—because he feels that he Everything has been arranged, and there is no need to share the unhappiness I have encountered with others.

Just as Sakurai was at war between heaven and man, Atsushi Nakajima at the side caught something from his muttering.

Atsushi Nakajima is not an expert in psychology, but as a child who grew up in an orphanage and was kicked out after leaving the orphanage not long ago, he has an unexpectedly delicate mind, a very strong ability to observe words and emotions, empathize with others, and simulate situations The ability is not weak.

It may be worse in other scenarios, but the almost retaliatory compensation behavior of "Edogawa Ranpo" gave Atsushi Nakajima a very subtle empathy.

Edogawa Ranpo was still angry, Osamu Dazai lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, there was no way, Atsushi Nakajima could only organize his words a little bit, and spoke slowly:

""Mr. Ranpo" used to be well protected...but maybe too much protection. Even in the most critical time, everyone in the detective agency still protected "Mr. Ranpo" behind him, and then something happened thing, so you have a bit of a grudge about it... right? "

Kunikida Doppo pushed his glasses: "But although Mr. Ranpo has always been behind the scenes, he has always been the center of our detective agency. It is impossible to keep him secret when there is a crisis?"

"If it's an ordinary Mr. Ranpo, of course not." Atsushi Nakajima tried to imitate, "But what if it's "Mr. Ranpo" who has lost part of his senses due to his ability? "

During the first encounter at the dessert shop, Mr. Ranpo deduced that "Edogawa Ranpo" had been pretending for a while, even when paying the price, he consciously chose some parts that would not affect the communication with others as much as possible— —Although it was discovered in the end.

Atsushi Nakajima imagined that if Mr. Ranpo on his side also possesses a powerful ability that needs to be paid for, then he will definitely want to hide it from the other party when encountering difficulties.

After all, what if "Edogawa Ranpo" used his ability again and hurt himself?

The price paid for the ability of "Edogawa Ranpo" has something to do with cause and effect, even with Akiko Yosano... In this case, the members of the Armed Detective Agency will of course avoid "Mr. Ranpo" tonight. ” to any situation that requires the use of the ability.

"Is that so?" Atsushi Nakajima asked Sakurai Yo for confirmation.

"Yes..." After a long silence, Sakurai Yao spoke slowly.

"You... they left me in a safe place. They never came back for me after that."

"You're right," Yoshi Sakurai turned his head and looked at Ranpo Edogawa, repeating the conversation from the first meeting.

"I did get dumped."

The author has something to say:

Since it was changed to 9 o'clock, I have approved it once.

Why don't you think that I update at ten o'clock, I don't believe I can be late at ten o'clock.
