Boss, do you have a card?

The next day, Armed Detective Agency.

"...that's how it is."

Sakunosuke Oda, who spent 10 minutes talking about his experience last night, finished his speech. The whole process was very calm, no different from the usual meeting report.

Others can't be so calm.

Yosano Akiko's expression developed from casual at first to thoughtful, her eyes flicked back and forth over Oda Sakunosuke, her words were a bit out of date: "Kyoka, what do you think?"

Izumi Kyouka also looked at Sakunosuke Oda: "The image doesn't quite fit, but on the other hand it is very advantageous."

The male compatriots at the scene looked bewildered.

Kunikida Doppo: "?"

Kunikida Doppo: "What are you talking about?"

I thought the situation was complicated, but when the two of them had a conversation, I couldn't understand it anymore.

Yosano Akiko: "We are calculating the success rate if we let Oda use beauty tricks on Yukino, which is the so-called seduction tactic."

Atsushi Nakajima: "Huh?!"

Quan Jinghua: "The winning rate is very high."

The former Mafia girl killer raised her head and said to Sakunosuke Oda seriously: "I have undergone relevant training, and I can help if necessary."

Oda Sakunosuke was silent for a while, and then politely refused: "Thank you, I don't think it is necessary to do this."

Kunikida Dobubu: "..."

It's all and nothing.

Kunikida Doppo vetoed this proposal with mixed feelings: "Oda definitely can't do such a thing as deceiving other people's feelings..."

Wait, doesn't it seem that he subconsciously agrees with Xie Ye's thoughts!

He quickly changed his words: "Well, what I mean is that the most important thing now is the information given by Xue Nu."

Kunikida Doppo was a little more serious: "Assuming what she said is true, a card corresponds to a target, and the target brought by the "Book of Seals" is dead, then..."

"Then what will happen to the card with the target?" Yosano Akiko took over the conversation, "Will it become a blank card?"

Kunikida Doppo: "What Yukino said is implying our matter, right?"

Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help interjecting: "And she said that ordinary people can also use it..."

"The premise is to know the correct method of use." Kunikida Doppo corrected, and then asked Oda Sakunosuke, "Oda, did she reveal the method to you?"

Oda Sakunosuke said "no".

That's right, it's impossible to tell others about this kind of thing easily.

Kunikida Doppo thought for a while, then turned to the phone placed in the middle of the conference table, it was showing that the call was in progress.

"Mr. Ranpo, what do you think?"

The famous detective of the detective agency has been borrowed by the Supernatural Secret Service as a foreign aid recently, and it is the same today. He is cooperating with Junichiro Tanizaki who has the ability of illusion.

Edogawa Ranbu, with one ear plugged into earphones, was sitting on the table with his legs crossed, resting his chin on one hand, and lazily gesturing to the staff around him with the other. Multitasking did not affect his simultaneous conference calls.

"There's no need to deliberately make up such a lie." Edogawa dragged his tone at a leisurely pace, "And isn't her purpose obvious? Only the truth can achieve the desired effect."

"Mr. Ranpo, what do you mean...Yuki wants us to turn our attention to that card?"

Kunikida thought deeply, and suddenly Fuling thought of the answer, "No, she wants us to help her find that card, right?"

Edogawa Ranpo: "Hmph."

The fact that "ordinary people can use cards" will increase the sense of urgency of the detective agency. No matter what, they must allocate their manpower and energy to find the blank card that does not know where it is.

A card corresponds to a target.

So can a blank card choose a new target?

It's fine if the blank card is in the hands of ordinary people, but if it falls into the hands of the enemy...it will be very disadvantageous to Miss Ming.

But in other words, if they get that blank card, the advantage will naturally shift to them.

But why did Xue Nu tell them this information?The person she is working with can be said to be one of the best intelligence businessmen in the world. He can win easily, so why ask for trouble?

Everyone once again stared at Sakunosuke Oda collectively.

Could it be that...?

Facing everyone's doubts, Oda Sakunosuke straightforwardly relayed the idea that Dazai told him.

Fyodor and Shelley are not a purely cooperative relationship, they are a plastic agreement, and in the end it is uncertain who will backstab whom.

Kunikida Doppo understood. He said that he would arrange a plan to find cards later, but the detective agency alone would definitely not be able to do it. The efficiency of finding a needle in a haystack is too low. If possible, he would find a way to ask the police to help.

"Mr. Ranpo, do you think this is okay?"

Kunikida seeks advice from a famous detective.

Edogawa Ranpo took the time to glance at the report handed in front of him, and replied uninterestedly: "It's about the same. In fact, Xie Ye's method is quite good, and it's okay to try."

With Yosano's method?

……

Kunikida Doppo who reacted was helpless: "Mr. Ranpo..."

Probably because the overtime hours of the Secret Service Section were too long (in fact, there was no off work there), Mr. Ranpo, who was forced to work overtime together for the past two days, has been in a bad mood. Already on strike.

There was a cautious voice on the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Ranpo...over there..."

"and also……"

"Mr. Ranpo...please..."

Edogawa Ranpo seemed to have endured it to the limit, and threw the documents in his hand on the table: "Ahh! I don't care! Ranpo-sama is going on vacation! Vacation——!"

beep...

The phone is hung up.

Everyone: "..."

Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help feeling sympathetic: "It's hard work, did the Secret Service say when it will end?"

"It should be... soon." Kunikida Doppo said uncertainly.

He also has a very headache. After all, without Mr. Ranpo in charge, the work in the agency is much more difficult, but there is no way, not only because of the commission by the Chief Farmer himself, but also because the Ability Secret Service Division belongs to the government department. If it is allowed to fail, The whole of Yokohama will be thrown into huge chaos.

From the current point of view, all the detective agency can do is to assist the supernatural agent class to resume as soon as possible.

"Let's not talk about this for now." Kunikida took back his phone and brought the topic back on track. He looked at Oda Sakunosuke, "Oda, do you still maintain your original thinking about Yuki?"

Oda Sakunosuke: "Yes, if my idea is wrong, I will take corresponding responsibility."

"That's it." Kunikida Doppo thought for a while, and replied, "I see, then I trust your judgment."

Oda Sakunosuke was taken aback.

"Don't mention Dazai, Mr. Ranpo actually means to support you, and think about it carefully, Miss Curator's letter didn't mention Yukino's evil deeds, nor did she say that she must be eliminated. " Kunikida Doppo said, "Since this is the case, there is no problem, but you can't relax because of this, safety issues are still very important, speaking of this—"

Kunikida Doppo frowned: "Where did Dazai go again! At first, he patted his chest and said that he would keep you safe, but in the end he just let you and Yukino get along alone without any preparations! What if something happens? manage!?"

No, there are actually some behind-the-scenes words.

Before leaving the bar, Dazai deliberately plugged a bug into him. As for whether Shelley found out, he was not sure, but since he didn't expose it, it probably acquiesced.

Oda Sakunosuke originally wanted to defend Dazai in this way, but he hesitated and chose not to say it. After all, "let him talk to Yukino alone" and "bug him and eavesdrop on him talking with Yukino alone"...the two are the same It seems that the latter sounds more scumbag in comparison.

Kunikida Doppo became more and more angry, and turned around to call Osamu Dazai who was absent from work.

So the person who talked to Sakunosuke Oda was replaced by Akiko Yosano.

"What surprise are you going to give her?" She asked with interest.

"I haven't figured it out yet." Oda Sakunosuke said honestly, "Actually, I have no idea at all."

Yosano Akiko raised his eyebrows: "Want to help? Or ask Dazai? He should be very good at this."

Oda Sakunosuke shook his head: "No need, I'll think about it myself first."

Otherwise, it would not be called a surprise for Shelley.

Although I don't understand why Shelley suddenly made such a request, but since I agreed... I must keep my promise.

But if you really can't figure it out, asking Dazai for reference shouldn't count as cheating.

Hearing what Oda Sakunosuke said, Yosano Akiko shrugged and stopped asking.

She was very resentful towards Xue Nu at the beginning. The frozen scene that day was too terrifying. The whole building, with so many people, could not hear any sound or feel any temperature. Standing there, it was as if she Hearts were frozen together.

But in the end, no one died.

Of course, this was on the premise that she rushed to the scene immediately.

Not seeing the dead, the resentment faded a lot, mixed with more confusion, until Luanbu woke her up.

However, even if it can be confirmed that Yuki is not a person who does anything to achieve her goals, she is not a gentle and kind person, which makes her attitude towards Oda very suspicious.

Her previous suggestion was not casual, after all, this extraordinary attention is too easy to lead people to think in that direction.

"You just have to figure it out."

Finally, Yosano Akiko said this to Oda Sakunosuke.

Oda Sakunosuke nodded: "Well, thank you for your concern."

Next to him, Kunikida Doppo, who called Dazai more than ten times in a row but couldn't get through, was very angry.

"I've been on the phone all the time! What is this guy doing nonsense again!"

……

"Ah!"

The person who was scolded by Kunikida Doppo sneezed hard.

Osamu Dazai sniffed in a daze.

what happened?Could it be that he caught a cold after staying up all night in the rain?

The person on the other end of the phone sneered ruthlessly: "You have become weaker and weaker these years."

Osamu Dazai smirked immediately: "I understand, after all, idiots don't catch colds, and Chuya, you are the type who never catches colds all your life, right?"

"Let's keep your mouth shut." Zhongyuan Zhong also snorted coldly, "Let me tell you first, I won't act according to your plan completely, I don't know how you told the leader, but don't try to put on airs in front of me and play tricks .”

"But my plan is always the best, isn't it?"

Osamu Dazai leaned against the wall, and his whole body was hidden in the shadows. He raised a hand and put the photo he had just obtained not long before his eyes for a closer look.

It was a candid photo of a group of men and women. The background was in an amusement park in a foreign country. The man was Fyodor in low-key casual clothes, while the woman was a very lively and cheerful girl who looked less than 20 years old and wore linen With gray shoulder-length hair, he was talking to Fyodor with a smile on his face.

Osamu Dazai put away the photos, smiled and said to the phone: "Anyway, it's going to be hard for you to go to Italy, Chuya~"

Would Fyodor inadvertently let someone take a successful candid photo, and even let the photo go on the black market?

That must not be possible.

But it doesn't matter, the system's 360-degree video recording without dead angle is very stable, and the data transmission between the systems is very stable, ensuring that the photos are high-definition, code-free, and natural.

In September, the White House watched the whole process of the system: firstly, they pretended to be new intelligence dealers on the black market and sold the photos they “accidentally” obtained to another intelligence dealer①, and at the same time used another vest [information intermediary] to guide the intelligence dealer① and Japan. The intelligence dealer ② got on the line, and then guided the intelligence agents of the port Mafia to "accidentally" contact the intelligence dealer ②—then it was a natural result that Osamu Dazai would take the initiative to contact the intelligence dealer ② through the port Mafia's intelligence network.

Among them, I didn’t even recognize them, and I avoided all the information points placed by Fyodor. Anyway, I will never let people trace back to the source of the photos.

This is not a one-night process, but a dark line that the system gradually spreads out after the tester determines the script.

And this dark line to find [Aiina] finally played a role at this time.

During September, the White House is not just eating, drinking, playing (Shelley) in a daze (Ming), when [Shelley] is shopping in Yokohama, and when [Ming] is filling the roof of Yokohama Station, the system is always He is trying to scan the energy wave of the Aina card all the time.

Yet nothing was gained at all.

This only shows that [Aiina] is not in Yokohama.

In September, the White House initially speculated that [Aiina] was hidden by Fyodor, but she was not found near Fyodor, and now she is not found in Yokohama... However, through various details, the system judged that Fyodor was absolutely Know the existence of the [Aiina] card.

In this case, we can only go to the place where [Aiyina] "died" to investigate.

So, Dazai-kun, I will work hard on you from now on!
