Has the Chaos Walker set collapsed today?

...Here is the ward?

Izumi Hoshino slowly opened his eyes, and saw the white ceiling on top.The tip of his nose smelled of disinfectant. He was lying on a hospital bed, with a familiar suitcase standing upright against the wall on the left side.

I remembered, after getting off the plane, a murder occurred at the rear when approaching the exit, and then...

"Mr. Edogawa?!" Hoshino Izumi sat up suddenly, looked around but found that he was the only one around.

Could it be that he was sent to the hospital?Too bad, because he mistakenly thought that the little boy was Mr. Edogawa, he was hit hard. Later, he saw the real Mr. Edogawa's extremely handsome side. After being shocked and pleasantly surprised, he passed out directly.

He covered his face with his hands in embarrassment, and there was a strong urge to want Tsurumaru to dig a hole for him and bury him in embarrassment.No way, I lost a lot of face when we met for the first time. I am not worthy of such a handsome Mr. Edogawa, I will definitely be dumped!

It's already obvious, he was thrown alone in the hospital ward...

"Ah~ Are you awake already?"

A capable girl came, Izumi Hoshino looked up and saw a woman in a white coat with short hair coming in from outside the door.With a smile in her eyes, she said kindly, "Is there any discomfort in your body? I can help you with a more detailed examination~"

For some reason, looking at her smile, Hoshino Izumi's face of his own Yaoken appeared in his mind, and bursts of dull pain appeared in his body like hallucinations.He made a move that would make him extremely rejoicing in the future, shaking his head vigorously from side to side, and said dryly: "No, no need, I think it's still... okay?"

Izumi Hoshino lowered his head and saw that his original clothes had been changed into a dark green kimono. No wonder the sense of bondage that followed him disappeared, and he thought it was an illusion.

"This is?"

"It's our president's clothes. Mr. Ranpo said that you are used to wearing it like this, so you asked the president for a spare kimono."

"... Mr. Ranpo?" This is Mr. Edogawa's name, and Hoshino Izumi still knows it.As for the president... "Excuse me, where is it?"

"This is the infirmary of the Armed Detective Agency. I am the doctor and Akiko Yosano of the Detective Agency."

"Miss Yosano... Wait, this is where Mr. Edogawa works!" Izumi Hoshino hurriedly got up and wanted to get out of bed. Under the bed were not only the leather shoes he wore before, but also a pair of wooden clogs.

He put on the wooden clogs and stood up following the choice of his heart.Seeing his uncomfortable look, Xie Ye chuckled. "If you want to find Mr. Ranpo, go straight from the exit and turn right and the second door is the office. He is the pillar of our detective agency, and he is so busy now that he doesn't touch the ground."

"So that's how it is." Izumi Hoshino couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth.

His lips were born with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and now his smile adds a bit of kindness and tenderness. After thanking Xie Ye and Xie Ye, he went to the bathroom attached to the infirmary to tidy up his appearance, and then went to the office in a nervous mood. direction to go.

As long as he knew that he was not abandoned in the hospital alone, the reason why he didn't wake up to see Mr. Edogawa was because he was working.So, isn't today actually his rest day?Did Mr. Edogawa absent from work to pick up the plane?

As an adult, absenteeism is not a mature thing, but thinking that he was put in a more important position than work, he actually felt a little sweet childishly.

After arriving at the door that Xie Ye had mentioned, before he opened it, he heard a slight sound coming from inside. For some reason, Izumi Hoshino just opened a small crack lightly, and it was very easy. I saw the front of the door, a desk that was different from other workstations, and Mr. Edogawa, who was thinking about it, was sitting on the office chair.

There were two stacks of documents on the table. Mr. Edogawa, who was wearing glasses, quickly picked up the one on the left as if he was working on an assembly line. The person said: "The prisoner is Zhoukou, and the location where he is currently hiding is the original site of the Xibianyuan City Gymnasium."

In front of him was a boy with blond hair and dressed like a farmer. He took the document handed over with great vigor, and said loudly: "Yes~ grab it now~"

"The gem was not lost, it was hidden in an old suitcase under the bed in the bedroom by his housekeeper."

"Yes, Mr. Ranpo. I will notify the client now." The woman in professional attire who stood in the front instead of the blond boy bowed slightly to him, and took the next document respectfully.

In front of Mr. Edogawa, some people lined up in a long line, like soldiers obeying an officer's order, they took the documents handed over by the other party without questioning, and started to work on the next step after getting them, and the content of their work , is the follow-up work instructed by Mr. Edogawa.

The two stacks of files disappeared at a flying speed. Izumi Hoshino was shocked by this efficiency.

Is it not just a good elite, or an attribute of a workaholic? !

Finally, when the desk was so clean that there was only one landline left, Mr. Edogawa stood up and walked slowly towards the door where he was.

Izumi Hoshino: "...!!!"

It was already too late, the other party opened the door first, and looked at him deeply with eyes that were as clear and pure as the finest emerald gemstones. "Since you're here, why don't you just come in, Ah Quan."

When Hoshino Izumi heard him call out his name with such a clear and magnetic voice, not only the ears, but also his face felt like it was burning.

"That... is it bothering you, Mr. Edogawa...?"

"You? Mr. Edogawa?"

The boy who was called so frowned slightly, and everyone could feel his displeasure at the moment. "I thought that based on my relationship with you, there was no need to use honorifics."

Indeed, after all, I am called 'Aquan'... It's the first time I've heard someone call me that when I grow up so old.Should it be said to be casual, or not to be particular about it... But behind the casualness is also a kind of intimacy.

Compared with respectful titles such as 'Hoshino-sama', 'Izumi-sama', and 'Your Excellency', he prefers being called by his name casually like this.

Hoshino Izumi glanced at the other party cautiously, and saw that the other party's brows were getting deeper and deeper. Instead of feeling scared, he asked with some hope, "Then... can I call you, Mr. Ranbu?"

"Ranpo-kun?" Edogawa Ranpo raised his eyebrows slightly, as if a little surprised.

"Because..." Izumi Hoshino had been bending his back so that he could get close to the crack of the door until he stood up straight, only then did he realize that Ranpo Edogawa was half a head shorter than himself.

It feels... cuter.

Not daring to speak his mind, he gently scratched his cheek with his fingers, avoiding looking at the other person's eyes. "It's just... other people call you Mr. Ranpo... for the sake of distinction, Mr. Ranpo... can't you?"

But thinking that the other party was a full six years older than him, Izumi Hoshino was ready to be reprimanded and refuted.Unexpectedly, Ranpo nodded in agreement very readily.

"Call it that way if you want. I can do it."

Izumi Hoshino: "..."

So handsome!

Out of a little selfishness, he tentatively called out the other person's name in such an intimate tone. What a magnanimous person, he agreed without blinking an eye.

Izumi Hoshino felt as if his brain was short of oxygen, looking at the things in front of him were wandering around.When he came back to his senses, he was already standing in the office, Mr. Ranbu was introducing him to his colleagues.

"This is Izumi Hoshino, my boyfriend. Just call him Mr. Hoshino."

"Hey, can't I be called Hoshino? She looks younger than me."

The person who said this was a tall, black-haired youth, wearing a long brown coat, with thick bandages wrapped around his arms and neck.If it wasn't for the smell of blood from his body, he would have thought he was seriously injured.

He raised one hand in a friendly manner. His right ear is still connected to a headset, and the ear wire is connected to the interface of the mobile phone. He can hear the subtle sound of music from the other headset hanging on his chest.

When Mr. Ranbu was working, everyone here lined up neatly to wait for his instructions. Only this young man sat on the sofa and listened to the music with his eyes closed, his body dancing to the rhythm of the music.

I thought it was a customer of the detective agency, but now the other party was standing behind a desk at a desk, and he should also be an employee of the detective agency.

Hoshino Izumi had a good temper, and said with a smile, "I can do it."

Among Ranpo-kun's colleagues, several of them looked like teenagers, but because Ranpo-kun's appearance did not match his real age, Izumi Hoshino thought they were younger too.

In this world... Those who can come out to work are usually adults. He has just come of age, so he might be the youngest one here.

No, there is also a little girl in a kimono who looks to be in her early teens.Is this also an employee of the detective agency?Maybe family members?

"Dazai." Edogawa Ranpo tilted his head slightly, his eyes under the lens were shining with coldness. "Judging people by their appearance is not a good habit, Ah Quan, tell him how old you are."

Hoshino Izumi was not embarrassed by Ranpo's faintly commanding tone, but also felt a sense of happiness that was completely accepted by his lover and completely invisible.So he cooperated and said, "20 years old."

"Have you heard, Ah Quan is twenty...how old this year?"

Ranbu's face froze, and he slowly turned his head to look at Izumi Hoshino.

Although Hoshino Izumi wondered why Ranpo was so shocked, he still said honestly, "Twenty...well, although I'm a little younger than Ranpo-kun...but I'm already an adult. I'm really an adult!"

"That's it..." Luanbu nodded stiffly, and said to him, "The president just asked me to go to his office, you stay here for a while. Haruno, to entertain guests, I will use the tea I brought yesterday That black tea."

Izumi Hoshino didn't understand, so he watched Luanbu walk past him, stepped on his leather shoes and walked to a closed door inside, opened it and closed it to isolate the sound from outside.

After a while, I don't know if it was an illusion, as if I heard someone crying and scolding idiots and idiots.

That voice...is a bit like Ranpo-kun's voice, is it an illusion?
