Shi Wu did not expect that the "future" in the "Edogawa Ranpo" pseudonym file would come so quickly.
He could tell the difference between files and memories. The memories of Morobushi Kagemitsu that he exchanged before gave him an immersive feeling. He could understand why Morobushi Kagemitsu chose to commit suicide, and he could understand the friendship between him and his good friend named Furuya Rei.
Shi Wu could also understand his admiration for his brother. There was a big age gap between Morobushi Kagemitsu and his brother, and because of an accident, they were separated. One grew up in Nagano and the other in Tokyo, and they only saw each other a few times a year.
But that brother has always been an indicator of maturity and stability. Even if they don't see each other often, the love and respect for his brother that comes from the heart cannot be faked.
Perhaps it's because the amount of energy used for redemption is different, or perhaps the ability to redeem is fundamentally different. Compared to the emotional changes at the turning point in Morobushi Kagemitsu's memories at the time - the file gives people the feeling of a cold sentence in the database.
Just like the lives of those great men in history, most of them are summarized in just a few lines. Even the lives of countless people are just the concept of a number in a certain event in history.
There is only one sentence about the combination in the file, [During the Three Society War, he stayed in the base Wanxiang Hall as a member of the defense team. He deduced the purpose of the port mafia and made the president decide to rescue the clerk. ] *
If it was just Tokiwa who was here, he could also extract a lot of information, but that was only superficial and could not go deeper. Because he is not good at this kind of thing. He always agrees that whoever can do the job will do it, and everyone has their own characteristics in division of labor and cooperation.
It's not that he can't think, but he doesn't need to think, because there will always be someone to take over the job of this top plan, and all he needs is execution.
However, after putting on the vest, Shi Wu is not just Shi Wu. Even his own personality and characteristics, thoughts and obsessions still exist. But most of the time, he will voluntarily be covered by the strong self of the vest itself.
Who makes his own acting skills worse and unable to completely play another person?
And in the process of logging into the vest, this text reveals too much information.
The three clubs in the words, in conjunction with the following text, represent the group, the Armed Detective Agency, and the Port Mafia. The three organizations restrain and use each other. The Armed Detective Agency was initially at a disadvantage because they did not know the purpose of both parties and had ordinary members who could be used.
The person that Edogawa Ranpo cares about most is the president Fukuzawa Yukichi. He will work hard for Fukuzawa Yukichi and naturally protect everyone in the detective agency.
With the ability of Mr. Detective, he can find all the loopholes before being designed, or quickly make up for the problem after discovering it.
So the question is, what is the purpose of the group coming to Yokohama, and why should they oppose the Armed Detective Agency? Their purpose must be the same thing that exists in both the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia - otherwise the group will first think that the Port Mafia will also spy on that "thing", based on the characteristics of the two organizations.
As for why they chose to deal with the detective agency, it was just the lesser of two evils, and the armed detective agency was easier to succeed. But at the same time, the Port Mafia is also an enemy of both sides.
So, what do they want? With
the arrival of the group, Edogawa Ranpo could definitely see their purpose, and he also understood the attitude of his own president, so he didn't care about it at all. This attitude is very obvious.
But when he was not wearing glasses, Edogawa Ranpo thought he was just an ordinary person, so even if he knew, he would subconsciously pretend not to know, and then say the answer when he put on glasses.
This is also the reason why Shi Wu did not ask Edogawa Ranpo directly. He did not want to expose this-the white lie created by the entire detective agency for the individual Edogawa Ranpo.
The lie will be exposed sooner or later, but in the process, Edogawa Ranpo will grow into an adult who can accept this.
No, Ranpo knew it a long time ago - it was not that he realized the answer subjectively. It's just like wearing glasses when reasoning, this action has become a kind of self-suggestion.
He just never actively and deliberately thinks about this.
He understood the answer subconsciously, but he was still like a child, just acting coquettishly to Fukuzawa Yukichi.
- Because the president said it, I will never doubt the truth of this matter.
- You said I have superpowers, so I must have superpowers.
This feeling of being protected... Tokiwa felt a little sigh, but not envious.
Because he felt that he seemed to have been taken care of in this way before.
...Although this is indeed related to age, after all, he was only about fourteen years old when he died, so he was still considered a child... right?
Shi Wu accidentally let his thoughts go astray again.
In short, it was because Edogawa Ranpo did not think about this aspect that he did not realize the danger of the group at the first time, which also led to the involvement of ordinary members - no, Ranpo must have chosen to protect the members at the first time, but more complicated things happened in the middle.
"Is there something that both the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia have?" Shi Wu asked the yawning Edogawa Ranpo.
"Are you talking about the "Supernatural Business License"? "Ranpo Edogawa fell on the chair, his voice was lazy, obviously he was not awake yet.
When the group arrived, Ranpo Edogawa was awakened by the roar of their helicopter, then he covered his ears with dissatisfaction and changed his posture, but after being awakened, it was difficult for him to fall asleep again for a short time.
-Ah, as for why we can infer that the group has arrived even though they haven't gone out yet, isn't this a matter of course? Because Nakajima Atsushi mentioned that he was wanted before, which included the wealthy organization of the group.
Compared with the other two organizations, who can appear in Yokohama in such a high-profile manner, in front of the detective agency, and with the blessing of the file, who else can it be but the group?
"Oh, so they came for this. "The detective who said that he was just an ordinary person without glasses rubbed his eyes and gave the answer before Fukuzawa Yukichi told him, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
In front of Tokiwa, Edogawa Ranpo was more direct. He glanced out the window at the groups of people who left because of rejection, "Well, it feels like things are getting troublesome."
The effect of vision in the process of reasoning ultimately accounts for the majority, and super reasoning has never been an unreasonable ability. From such a distance, Tokiwa didn't even know how many people there were, let alone analyze more things.
"Trouble?"
"Because, that guy, his wife was in trouble! So he wanted to come to Yokohama to find a solution-is he an idiot?" Edogawa Ranpo complained.
He recognized who that person was. Even if he didn't recognize him, Edogawa Ranpo could still analyze the other person's location by the other person's clothing and appearance, and thus determine this point.
But regardless of whether he recognized him or not, with Ranpo's personality, it's like recognizing the road. He won't remember things that he doesn't care about, but if he really has to recognize the road and recognize the person, he can actually remember them.
"What does Yokohama have that can cure his wife?" Tokiwa was a little confused, "Doctor Yosano's ability can't cure diseases."
No, that's not right, their goal is the "Supernatural Business License." Before today, Tokiwa didn't know about this certificate - just by hearing the name, you know what the concept of this certificate is.
This also made Tokiwa suddenly realize that the existence of the detective agency can be put in the open, and it is not just tacitly recognized by the government and treated as non-existent.
After all, to the ordinary residents of this city, people with special abilities are more like urban legends, and most people have no concept of special abilities. Tokiwa thought that the Armed Detective Agency was an unofficial organization, unknown to ordinary people, and even the government deliberately concealed it. It's
really strange, why would he subconsciously have such an idea?
Tokiwa didn't think much about this point, but continued with the previous question. If they want a "special ability business license", it means that they need to stay in Yokohama in an open way. What is there that only Yokohama has and can unconditionally heal a person?
What was the reason why Nakajima Atsushi was wanted before?
"It must be the "book". "Ranpo Edogawa once again gave the answer casually, "That guy was used by someone, and he knew it, but he still came here."
"Because he has tried all the methods he can, but still hasn't found the props to restore his wife."
Maybe there is, but the boss of the group has not reached that level yet, and can't contact big shots of that level.
The detective stretched his back, and there was no surprise in his tone: "That's why he insisted on grasping that faint possibility, and because this city is to him-he thinks he can get it."
"As long as he gets the city, he can look for the "book" wantonly. "
After saying this, Edogawa Ranpo smiled again, turned around and was about to say something to Tokiwu, but when he saw Tokiwu's expression, he was stunned.
The moment Edogawa Ranpo said the word "book", Tokiwu's brain froze like a stuck gear.
According to his analysis, isn't the "book" something that only two people in a world can know...ah, he remembered that the world was an if world, a fragile world that could be easily destroyed.
That's why the leader Dazai protected that world in that way.
And this world is the most important "main world". The system told him this at the beginning.
"Is it a "book"? I see. "Shi Wu nodded expressionlessly.
He didn't know how he should react. The last world wasn't that special. It was just the first world he started to pay attention to.
It was only at this moment that he felt a subtle imbalance - not for himself, but for the leader whom he had never met.
The things that needed to be carefully guarded in the if world were "secrets" that everyone could know in this world. It
was a little too unfair. The
author has something to say: Shi Wu: I have a random brain, but I don't use most of it. This is probably the case that those who are thirsty will die of drought, and those who are thirsty will die of thirst.
