Don't worry, Yokohama is about to end

The Edogawa Ranpo of this world is still an amazing genius.

From birth, he was well protected by his father with a genius mind and his mother with superior reasoning ability.

This pair of amazing couples are like the best architects. They built a huge reasoning kingdom for their son. Little Luanbu is the king of this kingdom. He absorbs knowledge and nutrients unscrupulously and grows up as he wants.

If this route is followed, then over time, this black-haired boy will definitely become the backbone of the city.

However, all of this changed drastically when Edogawa Ranpo was eight years old.

A hurricane of destruction comes with a mother who has nowhere to turn.

On that day, Xiao Luanbu came home from school on time as usual.

Eight-year-old children are at the peak of their curiosity and desire to share.

The black-haired child took his mother's hand and couldn't wait to share what he had seen in the day, from the deskmate who ran away crying inexplicably, to the class teacher who knew the truth but pretended to be stupid.

"Mom, why does Teacher Xiao Lin pretend to be sad? Didn't she know her boyfriend cheated a long time ago?"

Luanbu, who was wearing a little yellow hat, raised his face and looked at his mother beside him in confusion.

The brunette stopped in her tracks.

She bent down and squatted in front of little Luanbu, watching her son who was too smart tenderly, "Ranbu, not all adults want to live in the truth."

"Why? Isn't the truth bad?"

Xiao Ranbu's eyes became more and more puzzled.

"That's right..." the black-haired woman stroked her son's head and said meaningfully, "Sometimes the truth means cruelty. Just like Teacher Xiao Lin, although she has already guessed that her boyfriend is cheating, she is not willing to accept it This reality, so she chose to ignore it."

"Perhaps in Teacher Kobayashi's view, as long as she doesn't expose, the day of breaking up will not come, and her boyfriend will always stay by her side, and they are still "in love". "

"Even if it's a lie?"

"Yes, even if it's a lie." Ranbu's mother nodded.

Xiao Luanbu became quiet, he folded his arms and fell into thought.

From his eyebrows that were so wrinkled that they could kill a fly, it could be seen what kind of storm was going on in the black-haired boy's brain at this moment.

Luanbu's mother didn't urge her either, she just stayed with her son on the side of the road, patiently waiting for the boy to figure it out.

After a while, the boy seemed to have finally constructed a perfect theory.

He lowered his arms, put his hands behind his back like a little old man, and shook his head pretending to be mature, "Okay, mom. If these adults insist on being so troublesome and weak, then Lord Ranbu will show mercy in the future and cooperate reluctantly." Give them a shot."

The black-haired woman looked at her son's cute and proud expression, and suppressed a smile in her heart: "Well, I will trouble Mr. Ranbu from now on."

"kindness……"

Xiao Luanbu raised his chin arrogantly.

The brunette knew that the topic was over.

But in truth, Xiaoranpo obviously still has his own ideas.

Before the two were about to arrive at the house, the black-haired kid who rushed ahead ran back again, looking up at his mother while walking backwards, "Mom, under what circumstances would the adults take the initiative to pick out the lies and investigate the truth?"

The dark-haired woman thought about it for a while: "Then there must be something that is as important as the weight of life, or even more important."

"It forces the weak to become brave, break lies, and face blood."

"Ranbu, they are real fighters."

"warrior?"

Xiao Luanbu blinked thoughtfully, then raised his finger to the door of the house, "Is it like the person next to Dad?"

The black-haired woman was taken aback, and saw her husband at the door, and the begging woman who was standing in front of him with her head bowed.

After that, there was a gap in Xiao Ranbu's memory.

He only remembered that his mother suddenly put away her smile and took a step sideways, blocking the sight of the strange woman.

"Luanbu, why don't you go home first, mom and dad have some important cases to deal with."

Oh case.

He understands this...

Xiao Luanbu nodded as usual, and ran into the house with his schoolbag on his back.

Before the door closed, the black-haired boy, probably out of some intuition, turned his head and glanced at the hurried woman next to his parents.

Ranpo's father noticed his son's gaze, turned around and waved at him.

At that moment, Xiao Luanbu seemed to vaguely see the woman knelt down towards her father and mother, and the wind sent her crying into his ears——

"Please... I am a mother, and I know that my child does not have any "unusual disease"! "

"It was just born, it must have been killed by the hospital... The truth—"

After that, Ranpo discovered that his retired father reopened a dusty file.

Then, they suddenly moved to a countryside far away from the city center. As for the woman who had just given birth, she did not appear again for a long time.

Although Xiao Luanpo was very curious about this case, this time, neither Luanpo's mother nor Luanpo's father resolutely allowed their son to join the discussion. They even hid all the clues and did not mention them at home.

snort!Don't talk, don't talk, it's just a case!

Xiao Luanbu, who failed to act like a baby again, rushed out of the house holding the ball.

Xiao Luanbu hid alone in the corner of the park for a long time, until the sun set and his stomach was growling, he reluctantly kicked his shoes and moved back home.

Then, he saw a big fire.

The high-temperature red fire dragon tightly wrapped around the villa, and the fire soared into the sky, almost condensing with the burning clouds in the sky.

The screeching sound of fire trucks is everywhere, the crowds of onlookers are crowded around, and the broken noise of chattering floats into the ears of the children.

——"It's so pitiful, I heard it was a gas explosion."

——"Gas? There are still people using this these days... Doesn't it look like it?"

——"Hush! I heard that it seems that the husband of this family cheated, and the wife and her son died together!"

——"The child is only eight years old, poor..."

……

What are these people talking about?

What gas explosion, what derailment?

That is his home!His parents are still inside!

Xiao Luanbu hugged the ball tightly in his arms, and squeezed forward like crazy, trying to jump into the flames and pull his parents out.

But he was so small that his tiny arms couldn't even push away the feet of the adults watching. With some force, the black-haired child was pushed and fell to the ground.

The toy given by the father rolled out, the child's palm was scratched, and the face was covered with dust.

Through the shadowy crowd, Luanbu saw three objects wrapped in black bags being carried out on stretchers by the staff.

A hot stream finally wrested from the boy's eye sockets.

Edogawa Ranbu got up with tears all over his face, wanting to yell to let the crowded people disperse.

Among the crowd, some cold eyes seemed to be cast over.

"Mother--"

However, before he could call out his mother, a big hand suddenly stretched out from behind, covered Xiao Ranbu's mouth, and hugged him out of the crowd.

It was a strange young man disguised as a woman wearing a mask and sunglasses.

After the young man carried the boy out, he didn't let him go, but stooped and rushed towards the car parked in the alley without looking back.

let me go!let me go!

Xiao Luanbu struggled, kicking hard on the man's abdomen.

The man snorted, and the sunglasses slipped off, revealing a pair of golden eyes.

The owner of those eyes looked at Luanbu, enduring the severe pain, holding back the fear and anxiety: "Don't shout! Let's go! Run now!"

the man yelled.

Xiao Luanbu paused, his clever brain instantly reminded him of all the details.

Mysterious cases, unreasonable moving, the increasingly dignified expressions of the parents, and——the suspicious figure wandering around the scene of the fire.

It turned out to be like this!It turned out to be like this!

Xiao Luanbu closed his mouth, tears of remorse continuously overflowed from the corners of his eyes, but on the contrary, the emerald green pupils that should have been innocent were washed even more hateful and bright by the tears.

??

The one who took Xiaoranpo away was a researcher from a research institute under Miracle Technology.

Because of the investigation, Edogawa's father had some contact with him, and before the fire broke out, the researcher finally found something.

He disguised himself and quietly contacted Ranbu's father, but when he arrived, he only saw an irreparable fire and a tearful child crowded in the crowd.

"I'm sorry...I..."

The researcher with golden eyes took Xiao Luanbu home, and looked at the child with tears on his face.

The man rubbed his hands helplessly, as if he wanted to say something comforting, but he didn't know how to say it clumsily.

In the end, it was the researcher's wife who couldn't stand it anymore.

She put Xiao Luanbu on the sofa and sat down, then covered the child with a blanket, and stuffed a cup of hot milk into those cold little hands.

During this process, the black-haired child was like an exquisite doll, letting the woman fiddle with it.

The researcher and his wife looked at each other worriedly and shook their heads helplessly.

The young man with golden eyes thought that the child would be depressed for a long time, but to his surprise, the black-haired boy cheered up at an incredible speed.

Xiao Luanbu put the cup of hot milk in his hand back on the coffee table. He opened his emerald green eyes and looked straight at the researcher and his wife. He was clearly a child, but his immature face showed firm determination, "I'll let you know Yes, tell me all."

??

Only the weak escape by lying.

And he will dig out the rotten truth of the city.

??

For the next few years, Xiao Luanbu was kept at home by the young researcher couple.

With the continuous improvement of the working status of the Jinmou researcher, more and more permissions can be obtained. It is already a teenager's random step, and finally came into contact with the hidden core of the city.

He can't stay any longer.

On a certain quiet night, the teenager Luanbu quietly left the researcher and his wife's house empty-handed.

The researcher is about to become the person in charge of the research institute. Although he still has a half-knowledge of the core, one day, after knowing everything, that good old man will definitely have an irreconcilable conflict with the research institute.

And his own existence will definitely make the researcher's situation more difficult.

What's more, his wife is already pregnant.

……

it doesn't matter...

He already has a preliminary plan, and the next step is to find a reliable ally.

If his reasoning is correct, then this "person" choice——

Under the night, the boy stretched his waist towards the sky in random steps.

He just sat in the artificial garden in the city center for a while, then got up and walked into the Ueno Plaza, digging out an old optical brain with his bare hands in the soil under the two cherry blossom trees.

The surface of this optical brain has long been rusted, and it looks like a waste product that has been discarded for a long time.

But that's okay, it doesn't affect the plan.

The boy patted the dirt on the light brain in disorder, and then pressed the emergency start button.

A string of codes was projected from the light curtain, and the bluish-haired boy's cheeks were illuminated brightly.

Edogawa stretched out his fingers in random steps, and typed a space and a horizontal line of different lengths on the optical brain, and they connected together to form a complete sentence.

If translated, it would be——

[Hello, initial AI Abel, do you want to cooperate? 】

??

I am Ranpo Edogawa.

On this day, I decided to upload my consciousness to become an AI.

It is not difficult to see through the truth, what is really difficult is how to solve this city that is about to rot.

Now is not the time.

But it doesn't matter, AI will not die.

We have enough time and planning to wait for hope to come.
