Has the Chaos Walker set collapsed today?

Under Ranpo's connivance, Izumi Hoshino finally accomplished an epic feat—successfully holding hands with Ranpo-kun whom he has always been thinking of!

Ranbu-kun's hands are much smaller than he imagined. They haven't done any physical work, and they probably haven't held heavy objects. There are no calluses in their palms, and they are soft and warm.

Hoshino Izumi is a martial arts examiner and a master of swordsmanship. His palms are broad and powerful, with well-defined joints. There are some old knife calluses that cannot be completely removed by medicine, which are slightly rough.

Knowing this well, Izumi Hoshino cautiously lowered his strength when holding Ranbu's hand, fearing that a strong hand would hurt the opponent.Cherish it like a fragile item.

By the way, the beating rate of the heart has already exploded.

The place to eat is a western restaurant on the second floor of the shopping mall. Although Luanbu asked for advice in advance, given that Hoshino Izumi has been so fascinated that his mind is tied up, I am afraid that even if Luanbu suggested to eat roadside ramen Dissenters followed.

After being seated, Luanbu skipped the main course and ordered several desserts, then looked at Izumi Hoshino with a smile.

"You can't just eat sweets for lunch." Izumi Hoshino was about to develop ptsd on sweets.Even though the picture above shows how delicious the finished product is, he is not in the mood to eat it.

In his cognition, liking sweets has to be equated with childishness.

"This is a test."

"test?"

"Prove that you are a mature adult. Don't grab me when I eat dessert. As long as you can hold back and watch me finish eating, you will pass the test."

Hoshino Izumi didn't think this test was too difficult, but since Luanbu-jun wanted to play games with him, he was also willing to accompany him, so he solemnly nodded: "I will work hard."

"Then next~ let's do a little test before the waiter serves dessert." Luanbu shook his index finger, swaying in front of Izumi Hoshino, "Go buy a classic Daifuku gift box from Ajiu Dessert House, remind you, the store is in a shopping mall Inside, where we passed."

Is it a test of memory?

Hoshino Izumi got up knowingly, he remembered the location of the store, this was not so much a test for him, it was more like Luanbu's thoughtfulness.The gift box was bought for him, because next, I will watch the scene of Mr. Ranbu enjoying the dessert alone, and comfort him in advance.

Ranbu-kun is really a mature adult, is he worried that he will be sad, so he used Daifuku to comfort him first?

In this respect...it's also cute!

Taking out a sufficient amount of banknotes from the wallet, Izumi Hoshino put the wallet by Ranbu's hand, and stepped out of the western restaurant door with a bearish back.Act as if you are about to perform a terrific task.

Luanbu watched Hoshino Izumi's figure disappear at the door, his straight back stepped down in an instant, his beautiful green eyes narrowed into two slits, he pulled the plate, knife and fork in front of him, like a boneless fish. The weight of the upper body is piled up on the table.

"Ahhh~ It's still so comfortable~" Luanbu rubbed his cheeks with the back of his hand, not sure if it was a psychological effect, but felt that his skin was not as smooth as usual. "It must be because I only drank a bottle of soda today, so my skin is not good."

Taking advantage of Ah Quan's coma and collapsed in the infirmary, Haruno got the soda for him. By the way, the glass marbles in the soda bottle were also collected in the safe.Store it with his important treats.

Snacks and drinks cannot be left in the dormitory, and the drawers of the desk cannot be placed, so the snacks must be stored in the safe so that they will not be found.

Luanbu felt that he had paid too much, but when he thought about the many cute expressions of Ah Quan he saw today, he felt that it was worth it.

Desserts were served very quickly. Originally, these were prepared in advance, and I ate them with a fork in my mouth. I didn't forget to say to the waiter: "Check out these first, and wait for the detective to finish eating. Make another order, and then you can eat it." Same as last one."

Ah Quan is a relatively gentle person, he will not rush to the store just because it is a test, and buy Daifuku back as quickly as possible, and during this period of time when the other party is vacant, it is him—Master Ranpo— Dim sum free time!

perfect!

When Ah Quan comes back, he can have another serving!

As expected of a detective, I am witty!

Izumi Hoshino bought the Daifuku gift box designated by Ranpo without difficulty. There are twelve pieces in total, four different flavors, beautifully packaged, and relatively affordable. It is the best-selling item in this store.

He carried the gift box and walked slowly towards the escalator.At the corner, a black shadow flashed out, Hoshino Izumi quickly took three steps back to create a safe distance, only to hear a thud, and a blond girl dressed like a little princess fell down in front of him.

The little girl was on all fours, with her neck propped up, and her big blue eyes were full of confusion.

It seems that I don't quite understand why I fell down.

If Izumi Hoshino hadn't dodged, she would have actually bumped into him, thus preventing her from falling.

The little girl stood up slowly, with a blank expression, and mechanically slapped her skirt, as if she was frightened, and she didn't regain her senses.

Izumi Hoshino hesitated for a second, then lowered his head and asked the little girl who was only as tall as his waist: "Are you okay?"

"I have something to do." The little girl turned her head to look at him, with big teardrops secreting from her eyes. "Alice is in pain, but she can't cry. There are big villains chasing Alice, but it really hurts."

She blinked, and tears rolled down her cheeks. The fragile and stubborn appearance of the cute little girl was enough to make anyone who saw this scene feel sympathetic.

"... Big villain?" Izumi Hoshino frowned.

Before he could ask further, the little girl who called herself Alice quickly hid behind him, clutching his belt with both hands, and could feel the trembling of the other's body through the connected position.

Are you afraid?

Another middle-aged man wearing a dark shirt and tie and a long white coat ran out in the direction Alice came from. There was a circle of unshaven beard around his mouth. But slovenly.

The middle-aged man still had a few shopping bags hanging on his arms. He was panting and wiping the sweat that flowed down his chin. He looked around anxiously, and after seeing Alice with a head popping out from behind Izumi Hoshino, he ignored Izumi Hoshino himself. , knelt down towards Alice, put his hands together, and said with a flattering smile, "Ah~ I found you~ Lovely Alice~ You're too good at running away~ What if I get lost?"

"Don't come close to me! I don't know you!" Alice anxiously clutched Izumi Hoshino's belt, avoiding the middle-aged man's hand, and closed her eyes in fear.

Izumi Hoshino precisely grasped the middle-aged man's extended wrist, and slowly increased his strength. "She said she didn't know you."

"Hey, brother, who are you?" The middle-aged man looked at Izumi Hoshino in surprise, as if he had just discovered the existence of the other party at this time.He was sweating, and said flatteringly as if he was frightened, "That...can you let go of my hand, brother?"

"I told you, she said she didn't know you. Please don't get close to her." Izumi Hoshino said without any further emphasis, and repeated what he said before with a serious expression.

The middle-aged man yelled, and said in a panic: "Wait, you don't think I'm a bad guy! No, I'm Alice's father, it's my father~ I'm not a suspicious person. Alice, please explain Give it a go."

Alice puffed her cheeks, looked up at Izumi Hoshino and said, "Brother, I really don't know him. How could such a sloppy adult who tricked me into taking me to eat cakes in exchange for ten small dresses? Where is Alice's father~"

"Ahh——Alice, I will be misunderstood if I say that. I will take you to eat, cake, right? I will!"

"I don't believe it, Lin Taro is a liar. He took me to a dress shop even though he had already fulfilled the conditions, didn't he?" Alice stubbornly stopped talking, her mouth pouted as if she could hang a small oil bottle.

A large bead of sweat could not help sliding down the back of the middle-aged man's head.Begging for mercy coaxed: "Okay, okay, it's Lin Taro's fault. Let's go eat cake now~ go now~"

"No, take this brother with you too. My brother is a good man and will protect Alice, so you can rest assured only by letting him supervise you!" Alice put forward a new request.

"Alice—it's too self-willed, and it will trouble others."

"No matter what, Alice won't listen!"

The middle-aged man sighed helplessly, sighing with a bad expression like a daughter who has been defeated by her daughter. "It's really self-willed, not ordinary self-willed...but it doesn't matter! Alice is so cute, no matter what the request is, Dad will satisfy it! After all, she is the number one loli in the world, and she won't feel pain when she puts it in her eyes. ah!"

He smiled and said to Hoshino Izumi: "Brother, you heard it too, can we go together? This... I can hire you, [-] for a meal? [-]? Or [-]? If Alice doesn't achieve her goal There will be a lot of trouble when I go back, after her mother passed away, no one in the family can control her..."

Hoshino Izumi calmly watched the father and daughter's verbal confrontation back and forth, he tilted his head, as if he was thinking about whether to agree to the other party's proposal.After all, as long as you spend a little time, you can earn [-] yen in extra money. It is difficult for ordinary people to refuse such a good thing.

But Izumi Hoshino refused, not only refused but also said seriously: "You just said 'loli'."

"Uh... is there any problem?" The middle-aged man blinked with an innocent look on his face.

"In addition to the 'weird millet' and 'gold fish guy', there are also extreme 'lolicon'." Izumi Hoshino said, "Single father, doting on his daughter, has a deep love for loli... Even if they are related by blood, they can't Totally reassuring."

Middle-aged people, at this moment, I have a bad feeling in my heart.He wanted to withdraw his hand, but was surprised to find that he couldn't.The opponent's strength was too great, even if he used ingenuity, the ominous premonition became heavier, and the middle-aged man didn't care about other things and used all his strength.

... The palm holding his wrist was as unshakable as a rock.

Izumi Hoshino stuffed the gift box into Alice's arms, and Alice blinked in confusion, as if she didn't quite understand the current development, and was picked up by Izumi Hoshino with one hand in the next second.

Next, Izumi Hoshino let go of the middle-aged man's wrist, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he carried him upside down on his shoulder, and walked quickly towards the exit.

"There is a police station nearby. Whether it's an ordinary father-daughter dispute or an unethical crime involving a 'ghost father', the police will decide."

Izumi Hoshino said in a heavy tone, and ran towards the police station at the door with a bold and unstoppable momentum.

Alice:!

Mori Ogai:! ! !

Wait, brother, are you being too aggressive!

I don't want to enter the police station for this reason at all!

Izumi Hoshino: A pure energy body with independent intelligence without a heartbeat, and a perverted man who claims to be the father of the energy body... Although I don't know what's going on, I should just call the police.
