I can't lose to my ex today

Chapter65

"Did you see? Although human nature is indeed bad, but at this moment of survival, when the mind can no longer function carefully, there are indeed few people who are still willing to choose 'good' by virtue of their nature, but it is definitely not impossible. "

When Edogawa Ranpo said these words, he calmly watched the man in front of him turn off the monitoring screen, and the room fell silent instantly.

And Edogawa Ranpo didn't intend to give the opponent a chance to digest and breathe, and continued to press on the opponent's touched nerves step by step.

"So, are you happy or unhappy with this reversal of the 'survival game' you've planned, and is this what you hope to see or fear?"

"But either way, you're not a winner."

"Moreover, the person who has been suffering the most from the 'evil' of human nature...in fact, is yourself. Before you are swallowed by your own supernatural powers, before you are completely occupied by your pure evil personality, you I also want to see something different in my heart.”

When the words fell, Charles Dickens, who had been silent all the time, sneered, his voice carried a hint of madness, but there was indescribable joy and excitement in the madness.

"Yeah... that's great..."

Charles Dickens murmured, and then slowly raised his head, his blood-diamond-like bright red eyes were like black holes at the moment, as if they had been completely occupied by the pure and evil side of his personality.

The hand holding the detonator was raised little by little, and said regretfully:

"I'm so happy to see such a scene at the end, then...let me take that rare beauty away...in this chaos..."

The finger pressed the detonator that can instantly detonate all the bombs placed in the building!

"Bomb—!"

However, there was no explosion sound as expected, and there was only Edogawa Luanbu imitating the sound of the explosion in the room in a funny way:

"Okay~ It's over!"

The completely unexpected situation made Charles Dickens stunned, and then he pressed the detonator several times, but there was no response.

He has carefully checked the bomb before installing it, and there is absolutely no problem, so the only possibility is...

……

At the fire exit on a certain floor inside the hotel——

"Huh...fortunately I caught up."

After dismantling the last bomb, Rei Fuguni let out a sigh of relief. Just now he raced against time to dismantle the bombs in the whole building, using the fastest speed so far in his life.

"Thank you, Officer Jianggu."

Behind him, Osamu Dazai also took the hand off Furutani Rei's shoulder.Just now he has been closely following Jiang Gu Ling step by step to prevent the superpowers of Charles Dickens and Conan Doyle, the two top psychic superpowers, from acting on Jiang Gu Ling, thus affecting the bomb disposal.

Although the biggest crisis was resolved without any risk, Fuguya Rei still had lingering fears. Through these several cooperations in Yokohama, he could see the behavior of the Armed Detective Agency, especially when Osamu Dazai and Edogawa When colluding indiscriminately:

"I'm talking about you... next time something like this happens, can you inform the police in advance so that we can prepare for it, it's just too messy!"

Osamu Dazai laughed and laughed:

"Well, well, this is also to confuse the enemy and not be noticed by the enemy. The more people who know about things in advance, the bigger the mistakes will be. Don't worry, Miss Ranpo and I have already drawn up a plan before we act. There are hundreds of alternatives, and plan B can be activated at any time. And... I feel that Police Officer Jianggu should not be the kind of policeman who follows the rules, and he has done random things~"

"Tsk..." Jiang Gu Ling curled his lips, and took the topic away from his past "hot-blooded" career, "What should we do next, the incident created by Charles Dickens this time has already involved diplomatic issues It's a problem."

"Yeah...Let's leave the aftermath to the Ability Special Affairs Section. The management officer should be here soon. After that, it's their turn to work overtime. We can take a good rest."

Osamu Dazai stretched his waist while talking, thinking that his friend who has been promoted to the senior management officer of the Supernatural Secret Service Division will have to work overtime again... I feel a little excited~ I will send Ango a treat when we meet next time A bottle of hair tonic, the higher the official promotion, the less hair is left.

"Miss Luanbu, are we going to meet her now?"

"Well... how should I put it, this case is over, but Miss Ranpo's matter is not over~"

Osamu Dazai said it meaningfully, and at the same time suppressed the desire to go to the front row to watch... Sigh, I really want to see what kind of expression Gojo-kun will have when he receives that big surprise.

……

Penthouse Suite -

"So that's it. Has the bomb been dismantled?"

After understanding what was going on, Charles Dickens also threw the useless detonator aside.

"Who made you focus all your attention on Doyle? You only pay attention to his movements." Edogawa said calmly, "Of course, I also kept talking to you , disturbing your concentration~"

"Hmph, so today, is Conan Doyle actually a bait? The real action is carried out by other people." Charles Dickens shook his head and smiled, not knowing whether he was praising his opponent or mocking himself for underestimating the enemy, "But, In the end... don't I still have you as a hostage?"

While speaking, Charles Dickens took out another detonator from his pocket, and weighed it a few times in his palm like playing.

And seeing the girl in front of him still looking fearless, he didn't become angry from embarrassment, but with anticipation and curiosity:

"Are you still not afraid? You still have a bomb strapped to your body, but now you are facing this life-and-death situation alone. As long as I press the detonator in my hand, you will die in the next second." Will be blown to ashes, at least it's a normal person's fearful reaction?"

The other side talked endlessly, but Edogawa Ranpo turned a deaf ear to it, and instead started counting down inexplicably:

"Five...four...three...two..."

Just when the countdown reached "two"——

"Boom!" There was a loud bang, and a shadow rushed into the room at a speed invisible to the naked eye, almost seamlessly. Charles Dickens.

The whole room seemed to shake violently.

In the next second, Charles Dickens, who had suffered a violent blow, had passed out... in a posture embedded in the wall.

Edogawa Ranpo: "..."

Although this seems to be beyond the specification, but if this person is doing it... normal operation, normal operation.

Then, after seeing the bomb strapped to Edogawa Ranpo's body, Gojo Satoru couldn't help but immediately deal with it in the simplest and rudest way - tore off the bomb at the fastest speed, and slammed towards him. Throw it out the window!

Accompanied by the sound of "bang!", the window glass shattered, and the bomb that just came out of the window was completely shattered in the air by Gojo Satoru's next spell!

...Although there was no explosion sound, it was as simple as that, and the physical attributes were blasted to pieces.

Edogawa Ranpo finally had a chance to explain: "...Actually, you don't need to worry about the bomb, it's just a decoration."

Wujo Wu, who just thought he had completed a series of thrilling rescues, was still standing still and posing with a magnifying gesture: "...???"

Edogawa Ranpo: "This bomb was locked in a locker in the hotel by Charles Dickens before the forum officially started, but before Charles Dickens went to get the bomb, it was actually locked My co-worker switched bags and got a dud with exactly the same appearance."

Well, this work was done by Dazai in advance, there is no lock that Dazai cannot open.

Gojo Satoru turned around and looked at the little black cat who was tied on the sofa by Wuhuada and was still talking freely...so angry that he wanted to slap the little black cat's ass.

"You, what do you want to do..."

Sensing the "crisis" approaching him, Edogawa Ranpo, who was still tied up with a hemp rope and was unable to move, could only curl up on the sofa like a silkworm baby... This is the intuition from Maomao!

Sure enough, in the next second, Wujo Satoru stretched out his hands...but he still couldn't bear to greet the little black cat's ass.

In the end, he just pinched the white and tender cheeks, pulled them to the sides with a little force, and gritted his teeth word by word and said:

"I don't care how many sets of planABCD you have drawn up, or how many steps you have written your script... In short, in this case, your best choice should be to call me over immediately, and let me directly send this person down. Take it away, and everything will be solved!"

"If such a simple orangutan style can solve the problem, why does the famous detective need to spend so much trouble!"

Edogawa Rampo said that she is not an orangutan, and the simple and rude approach will always treat the symptoms but not the root cause:

"If you kill him directly, it will cause diplomatic problems with the United Kingdom at that time...A supernatural power user of his level, and he is also the most difficult spiritual power supernatural power user among supernatural power users, The British government will not let go of this value easily. His series of behaviors in the past were actually connived by the British government, just like the Japanese government connived at Tatsuhiko Shibusawa back then... So, if you don’t fundamentally touch If he thinks about it himself, then he won’t change when he is under the protection of the British government... By the way, you didn’t really kill him just now, did you?”

Gojo Satoru turned his head to look at the person embedded in the wall, and estimated the strength of his shot just now:

"Should... still have breath."

"Alright, it's also convenient for Jingzi to heal. Okay, okay, help me untie the rope on my body!"

"Untie?" Gojo Satoru looked back at the little black cat tied up on the sofa again. He was already extremely tall, but now he was looking down from a high position, with a sense of oppression, "I haven't settled the score with you yet. I'm very tall now. Angry."

But this time, Edogawa Ranpo did not flinch anymore, but counterattacked forcefully:

"Huh? If you want to settle accounts, I should ask you to settle accounts!"

"Look at me? Did I do something wrong!"

Edogawa Ranpo stared at the man in front of him with his opal-like eyeballs, and said with a half-smile:

"How long are you going to pretend to have amnesia? You don't really think you can fool the famous detective, do you?"
