Chapter 71: Did I give you a gift money? Spit it out!

Everything was ready, and just before Hayana Takanashi stepped onto the windowsill and jumped down, a clear and pleasant voice came from behind her.

"Where are you going?"

It was Edogawa Ranpo's voice.

Hayana Takanashi looked back and saw Ranpo Edogawa standing by the door, holding a cake in his hand but with a more serious expression than ever before.

Possessing an extremely high IQ and unmatched reasoning ability, Edogawa Ranpo is rarely seen in a cute and willful manner at this time, but is almost serious.

"Don't go." He said.

He was very strong in his attitude to stop his sister who was about to step into the darkness.

Without retracting her foot from the windowsill, Hayana Kotori calmly said to him, "Iron Head just asked you to resign, and you refused."

"So you're rejecting me? Rejecting your own family?" Edogawa Ranpo, feeling wronged, said bluntly, "A storm against the Armed Detective Agency is about to hit, and I will do my best to stop it."

"But if I can't stop it, I'll fall into the trap too."

"Don't get involved, Xiao Nai. Just let me feel a little more at ease."

"That's not fair at all." said Hayana Takanashi.

Edogawa Ranpo tightened his grip on the plate.

"You're obviously not as good at fighting as I am. You'll be out of breath after running two laps, you'll get lost on your own, and you have a childlike personality. You'll cry and make a fuss if I don't buy you snacks... and now you want me to stay home."

"Enough! This is simply too much!" Edogawa Ranpo jumped up and down, smoke billowing from his head. "I'm a famous detective! I have so many qualities that the younger generation should learn from and admire!"

"I want to go." Hayana Kotori said directly: "Dazai is just like you, he has an extremely smart mind, but brains alone will not work without force."

Just like the "Double Black" combination of Dazai and Chuuya, with powerful minds and military strength comparable to that of an army, they can be invincible.

But now Dazai is fighting alone.

Neither Chuuya nor she was by his side.

With one step on the windowsill, she jumped down cleanly and neatly, and fell to the ground silently.

Since he is a person with super powers with such dark deeds, the prison where he is imprisoned is definitely not Japan. She wants to go to the Super Power Special Agent Department to find out where Dazai is imprisoned.

"Aren't you going to stop it?" Edogawa Ranpo asked Suehiro Tetsuji who was standing at the window.

This person just asked him to resign without giving any reason to refuse, but he didn't say a word to Xiaonai.

Suehiro Tetsugu nodded: "She is as stubborn as you, but she fights better than you."

Edogawa Ranpo: “…”

So just bully him because he can’t fight!

The detective was furious and snatched all the desserts belonging to Suehiro Tetsuji and ate them.

While driving to the Special Ability Department, Hayana Takanashi was attacked.

A burst of gravity hit the roof of the car like a meteorite, causing the entire roof to cave in and deform, and then a bomb was thrown in!

The special ability [barrier] covered the bomb, and Hayato Kotori kicked open the car door and rolled out quickly!

As she steadied herself and looked towards the car with one hand on the ground, a red light flashed. The exploding bomb did not cause any damage. The sharp steel bars that rushed down from the space directly above the roof were also cut into countless pieces in a straight line and fell all over the roof with a crackling sound.

A white-haired man wearing a magician's costume, a white top hat, and his right eye covered by a diamond playing card fell from the sky. With a flick of his cloak, a telephone pole rushed out from it and hit the black-haired woman opposite!

With a light jump, she dodged the attack and squatted on the telephone pole, staring unkindly at the tall man opposite her who was pulling his cloak with an exaggerated expression, marveling at her sharp reaction.

She asked coldly, "Who are you?"

"Oh? You forgot to introduce yourself? That's a really bad etiquette mistake!"

"But in the end, it's all because of the young lady's beautiful skills and powerful supernatural powers. These are the reasons that have captured my attention so much~"

The white-haired young man, narcissistically reciting a high-pitched speech, spoke in a theatrical style. He put his left hand behind his back and swung his right hand in a gentlemanly salute. His voice suddenly became deep and elegant, "I apologize for any impoliteness."

"My name is Gogol."

He raised his head slightly, and under the white moonlight, the pair of light blue cross eyes on his handsome face looked very strange.

Hayana Kotori said directly: "I don't know you. I haven't heard of your name."

The port mafia does not have a lot of information, but these people know the port mafia very well.

Gogol's supernatural attack just now... He was obviously very familiar with how to use her supernatural powers, as if he was a comrade-in-arms who had been with her for many years.

A, that idiot, caused the current passive situation.

When he is caught, she will definitely give him a good kick!

"Don't know him?" Gogol tilted his head in a childish puzzlement, and the pigtails on the back of his head moved with his movements.

Compared to his previous weird, exaggerated, mentally abnormal and sick appearance, his eyes and behavior are much more normal now.

The next second, an interesting arc appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Guessing time!"

"Excuse me! Why should I stop the lady here?"

She was very pressed for time and had no interest in guessing riddles with him, so Hayana Takanashi activated her special ability.

The barrier composed of straight lines completely enveloped the white-haired man and trapped him inside.

Looking at his adorable appearance with his mouth open and fingers bent and tapping curiously, she rushed to her destination as fast as she could.

A few seconds later, Gogol, who had come from behind, caught up with her and ran beside her, asking happily, "Is the next step a stretch? Since I'm a magician, I've always been good at this kind of physical activity."

"Let's compete?"

"Whoever loses gets to stay with the other person for the entire night. Plus: never leave their side."

"You're sick!" Kotori Hayato glared at him. "I'm not interested in crazy men like you. Stop getting in my way!"

"Being scolded?"

Even though he was being scolded, Gogol's handsome face that could make countless women blush and their hearts beat fast still had a happy smile on it, as if he was wearing a mask, and he said very good-temperedly -

"As long as you can give up the next move, it's totally fine with me not getting close to you."

Hayana Takanashi: "..."

Is the question whether it fits the body or not?

How did this guy grasp the key points?

Seeing that Hayato Kotori was just running forward and intending to completely ignore what he said to her, Gogol pinched the cloak with his fingers and swung it upwards. More than a dozen bombs passed through the black cloak and instantly reached Hayato Kotori's body.

But she didn't even look at it. After a muffled sound, all the bombs exploded within a certain space.

She said, "If it's just bombs, no matter how many you bring, it's useless. I advise you to give up."

Suddenly realizing something interesting, she stopped and looked at Gogol, who braked suddenly after her, leaned forward, and waved his arms like butterfly wings.

"When you said you were going to block me, you meant you weren't going to kill me."

"Who sent you?"

"It's not that I don't intend to kill you," Gogol calmed down, his expression surprisingly gentle. "With your special abilities, there are only a few people in the world who can kill you, and I just happen to not be one of them."

"There are very few people in the world with special abilities that you can't trap. Interestingly, I happen to be one of them."

"Do you feel frustrated?"

"A wonderful blend of helplessness, anger, confusion, and irritability?"

"Fyodor." Kotori Hayato confirmed, "You are Fyodor's companion."

Gogol was stunned by the sudden blow. He then put down the cloak he was pointing at and muttered in disbelief: "You're right. Looks like I'll have to stay with you all night."

"Go away!" she said.

After Gogol admitted that he was Fyodor's companion, Hayato decided not to go far away.

She was about to torture this man here and interrogate him to find out the prison where Dazai Osamu was.

If it was Fyodor's companion, he would definitely know what she wanted to know.

The result of the two people fighting fiercely was——

At dawn, Kotori Hayato was lying on the ground looking at the rising sun, exhausted.

And Gogol, he was lying on the other side, looking at the sky with doubt in his life.

Because Gogol's space-based abilities were not afraid of being trapped in the barrier, the line that Hayato Kotori cast at him to attack his body was also transmitted through the space on his cloak.

As for Gogol, his spatial ability could not break through Hayato Kotori's defense, and all his means of attack were broken.

At this point, neither of them could catch the other.

"Too strong, miss." Gogol murmured, "I really want to kill you."

"You're the second person who made me feel constrained."

Angrily kicking the young man's calf, Hayana Takanashi said weakly: "Who's the first one?"

Gogol did not hesitate to express his thoughts on that man, with a fervent hope in his eyes: "It is Fyodor. I regard him as a close friend from the bottom of my heart. He is a bondage to my soul. If I want complete freedom, I need to kill him."

"And now, there's another person with superpowers restraining me."

"Yokohama is truly a city that makes me both happy and distressed. It's so distressing that I'm even questioning whether I'll have the energy to carry out my next plan."

"Forget about that bullshit mission," Kotori Hayato began to incite rebellion. "Since you're so desperate to get rid of Fyodor's constraints on you, ignoring him and deliberately contradicting him to make him angry is a perfect way to do it."

"Gogol, let's cooperate."

She looked at the young man and invited him, "I'm going to find Dazai Osamu, and you're going to kill Fyodor. Let's go together. The look on his face when he sees you contradicting him will surely be quite something."

The playing card used to cover his right eye fell during the fight, and the two different-colored eyes, one blue and one blue, made Gogol look more exotic. He seemed to have never thought of doing this, and he blinked blankly.

Then——

"reject."

He showed that he valued friendship very much: "Fyodor is my best friend. I can't do something like turning my elbow outward."

"I really didn't realize you were such a sentimental person." After mocking him sharply, Hayana Takanashi stood up. Although exhausted, she moved forward with her strong willpower.

Gradually she drifted further and further away from Gogol.

She took a nap leaning against the wall of the alley. After regaining some strength, she walked out of the alley and continued on her way.

What made her want to curse was that she met two people whom she really didn't want to meet at that moment.

Standing next to him was Tetsuji Suehiro, who was wearing an iron-red military uniform. He had curved eyebrows and the ends of his white hair were dyed red. He was also a young man in a military uniform.

When they met Hayana Takanashi, both of them were obviously stunned.

Then, Jyouya Caiju remembered the heartbeat when Suehiro Tetsuji showed him the family photo, which was exactly the same as his heartbeat at this moment.

And from the heartbeat and smell of the woman opposite, he concluded that she was a member of the port mafia.

Jouya Caiju said with a mischievous smile, "Oh? Time for housework next?"

"But I never expected that the family you firmly believed in would be facing a marriage crisis after only four years of marriage, simply because the other party was a heinous port mafia member."

He looked at his partner, who looked calm, and said kindly, "If you're really sad, I can lend you my shoulder. Don't worry, I won't laugh at you for being deceived."

Having said that, he was actually about to laugh uncontrollably.

However, after hearing this, Hayana Kotori felt that the other party was out of his mind: "What are you talking about?!"

Drawing his sword from its sheath, he thrust the tip of the blade downwards into the sole of Joya Caiju's foot, and Suehiro Tetsujiro explained earnestly, "We're family."

"I know!" Tiao Ye Cai Ju jumped in pain and landed on one foot, her face painful. "Didn't you show me the family photo? We all congratulated you on your long and lasting relationship back then! Although you said things like 'what's so great' before..."

"That's why I said you were deceived by the mafia. You idiot, just go die sometime!"

"We're family." Suehiro Tetsuji reacted slowly, "But she's my sister."

Tiao Ye Cai Ju: "..."

Tiao Ye Cai Ju: "Huh?"

The next second, this terrifying existence, Tiao Ye Cai Ju, who was famous among the [Hounds], was able to handle things with ease, did things without any method, was extremely dark and had certain attributes, exploded in silence.

"You idiot! Didn't I give you the gift money? Spit it out!"
