Tsurumaru and Mr. Ranpo had a quarrel.

Yoseno Akiko noticed this early in the morning - to be more precise, Ranpo-san had no intention of hiding it at all, it was too obvious.

From the moment she entered the office, Mr. Ranpo sat cross-legged on the sofa, with his hands crossed in front of his chest, his mouth pouting, and an expression that said, "I'm angry, and I can't be appeased!"

Normally, at this time, no matter who provokes Mr. Ranpo, Tsurumaru will be able to comfort Mr. Ranpo with ease. But this time it was obviously different. The white figure seemed to have not seen Mr. Ranpo sitting there sulking, and his face was still smiling.

Yosano Akiko poked Shibai with her arm and asked curiously, "What happened between you two?"

Edogawa Ranpo has a very pure childish mentality. If she likes something, she likes it. If she dislikes something, she dislikes it. So it's not surprising that something happened that led to her acting like this. The problem is that this incident seems to be related to Tsuru, who has always shown high emotional intelligence, which makes people curious.

Thinking about this guy's usual habit of playing pranks, he joked with Akiko Yono without any malice, "You didn't replace Mr. Ranpo's snacks, did you?"

I looked over helplessly, "Is this the image of me in your mind?"

"That's right. If it was Ranpo-san, he wouldn't have fallen for your trap—" Yosano Akiko pinched her chin and judged. She has always been a straightforward woman, so she didn't think deeply about it. She shook her hands and said to Shibai: "Since you are the one who did it, remember to coax him back."

Having said that, I thought it was just a small matter with Xie Ye Akiko, but I found that after several days, the relationship between the two people has not recovered. Because I don't know what happened, Xie Ye Akiko can't get involved, so I can only look at Shi Bai with a questioning look.

Shibai probably wanted to say something, but the cell phone that was originally in his sleeve rang at this moment. Shibai did not choose any weird or strange ringtone, but instead chose a surprisingly conventional one - to use his own words to explain, that is, it is precisely because you would not think of this that you would be surprised when you heard it. Isn't it interesting?

Just when Shibai was thinking about answering the call, Ranpo Edogawa, who was sitting on the sofa, got furious. He suddenly spoke in a tone that Yosano Akiko had never heard before: "Don't answer the call!"

Shi Bai paused and looked over. There seemed to be nothing in the golden pupils.

Yosano Akiko was a little confused about this inexplicable request, but she still subconsciously chose to believe in Edogawa Ranpo's order. After all, Mr. Ranpo would never harm them. Most importantly, she had a bad premonition at this moment, so she also said to Shibai: "Tsurumaru, listen to Mr. Ranpo."

Shi Bai just shook his head at the words of the two men. When he made this reaction, the room fell into silence, except for the cell phone in Shi Bai's hand, which was still ringing. The crisp ringtone made the room even more strangely quiet.

The temperature around Edogawa Ranpo seemed to drop suddenly at this moment. He gave Shibai one last piece of advice, "If you step out of the detective agency today, Ranpo-sama will never talk to you again!"

"Tsurumaru...what on earth happened?" Yoseno Akiko frowned and stared at Shibai's expression.

"Dr. Yoseno! Stop this guy! Don't let him go out today!" Ranpo Edogawa suddenly gave this order.

"Ranpo." However, before he could start a fight with Yoseno Akiko, a stern voice stopped him. Fukuzawa Yukichi had opened the door of his room and appeared in the office. He said nothing, but just called out Edogawa Ranpo's name. The famous self-centered detective then averted his gaze and stopped saying words that troubled Shiba.

"Tsurumaru Kuninaga, have you made up your mind?" Fukuzawa Yukichi looked at Shibai with the same gaze as when they first met. That kind of calm aura gave people a very reliable feeling.

Shibai raised his head and looked into Fukuzawa Yukichi's eyes, then nodded very seriously, "Yes, Mr. Fukuzawa."

Fukuzawa Yukichi closed his eyes and sighed, "On the day you came to the detective agency, I told you that you could leave anytime once your injuries were healed."

"In that case, I won't stop you."

Edogawa Ranpo subconsciously retorted: "But——"

Finally realizing that his efforts could not change anything, Edogawa Ranpo gave up even his favorite snack and left angrily, "It's rare for Ranpo-sama to be kind, so just forget it if you don't want to accept it! Don't even think that Ranpo-sama will pay attention to you in the future!"

"Mr. Ranpo?!" She and Yosano Akiko were the only ones who didn't know what happened, but compared to the two usually reliable swordsmen, Edogawa Ranpo's condition was more worrying, so she didn't hesitate for long and followed.

Only Shibai and Fukuzawa Yukichi were left in the room. Shibai was silent for a while, then bowed deeply to Fukuzawa Yukichi, "Thank you very much for your time, Mr. Fukuzawa."

After saying this, Shi Bai turned around and left the detective agency where he had worked for some time, without any regrets.

On the other hand, when Akiko Yono and Edogawa Ranpo found Edogawa Ranpo, in fact, Edogawa Ranpo had not run far at all. It was as if he got lost as soon as he walked out of the door, and then squatted there waiting for someone to pick him up.

"It's with Dr. Yosano." Ranpo Edogawa looked quite calm, completely different from when he was in the room just now.

Ranpo Edogawa feels that his current mood is the same as the time before he met the president - the whole world is something he cannot understand, all of which are things he hates and make him feel uncomfortable.

At that time, he didn't know that he was the special one, and that what he saw was different from what ordinary people saw. In the cognition of 14-year-old Edogawa Ranpo, he was no different from ordinary people, and what he could see at a glance, those adults could also see.

I just don't know why those adults pretended that they didn't know. They even blamed him for saying "something that everyone knew". Obviously everyone knew it, didn't they?

It was not until the appearance of Fukuzawa Yukichi that Edogawa Ranpo's cognition was broken and he told him that all this was just because Edogawa Ranpo possessed a powerful supernatural power called super reasoning, which not everyone could see. Other humans in the world were just young children who did not know how to observe things.

At this moment, Edogawa Ranpo suddenly realized that no one had any ill will towards him, and all the pain and confusion he had experienced was just because this world was stupid.

And now, Edogawa Ranpo once again felt that something he couldn't understand had happened. He looked at Yosano Akiko and asked, "Why do you have to do something that is not necessary when you know you will die?"

Ranpo Edogawa's question was quite abrupt and strange, but Yosano Akiko understood the meaning of Ranpo Edogawa's words in an instant. Her expression was sad for a moment, but she quickly restrained herself.

"Is that so..." Yoseno Akiko sighed and said to Edogawa Ranpo, "Perhaps it's because, in his mind, this is something that must be done."

"I can't understand it." Edogawa Ranpo thought about this sentence with his brain which was far superior to ordinary people and even more genius than a genius - he could easily understand the literal meaning and the deeper meaning, but he still couldn't understand why those people would do such a meaningless thing.

Edogawa Ranpo's thinking is quite rational, as straightforward and pure as a child. If one day he learns to control emotions, he will probably become quite terrifying, and maybe even be able to use his ability to control and erode people's hearts.

Fortunately, the person he met when he was young was Fukuzawa Yukichi, otherwise, someone would have taken advantage of his abilities and the consequences would have been disastrous.

Ranpo Edogawa could sense from Shibai's emotions that he was not very loyal to the so-called leader, nor did he have any "must do" emotions. But it was as if something was chasing after him, forcing him to hurry up and enter the road of death.

Edogawa Ranpo does not have enough clues to know the existence of another world or parallel world, so he will not think in this direction. Because of the lack of this clue, Edogawa Ranpo will never understand why he should do this.

...What is the reason why we have to do this?

This sword, this sword god, his existence is too contradictory.

Edogawa lowered his hat in annoyance and said, "With Dr. Xie Ye, let's go back to the detective agency."

At this moment, they all understood that from today on, the white crane that loved to make noise and bring joy to the Armed Detective Agency would never come back.

"Moshi Moshi?"

[What were you doing just now? I called you so many times but no one answered!] Nakahara Chuuya's energetic voice came from the phone, and Shiba smiled and replied, "Because the phone happened to be away~"

[Tsk, forget it.] Nakahara Chuuya's voice dropped back to his normal tone, [Didn't we agree before that I'll tell you once I find relevant information. The address is...]

Zhongyuan Zhong also reported a place name to Shibai, "Are you free now? If it's not convenient, forget it. 】

Shibaku put the sword on his waist and replied with a smile: "No, I have plenty of time now. See you then, Chuuya."

"See you then." Nakahara Chuuya put down his phone, frowned and looked at Dazai Osamu who was not prepared at all, and said in a rather aggressive tone, "You bastard, didn't you say you would make a bet with me about who would find the mastermind first? But you just followed me around and did nothing. Do you want to just give in?"

"——Because there is no need at all." Dazai Osamu said with a smile: "Anyway, the most important information is with you, the dwarf."

Facing Dazai Osamu's expression that made people want to punch him, Nakahara Chuuya narrowed his eyes slightly, "You really do know..."

The author has something to say: It seems that many people are looking forward to "darkness", but looking at the title, he has it in quotation marks - the so-called forced "darkness" of the protagonist is just the style of being misunderstood as evil, you can tell from the copy! Suddenly I feel like I picked the wrong title, thinking.
