Chapter 053 Councillor Mori

Chidori did not explain in detail how he convinced Fukuzawa Yukichi.

But according to his account, they achieved a real long-term cooperation. Fukuzawa Yukichi had two paths he wanted to take, so naturally he did not set up an armed detective agency.

However, he still met Ranpo Edogawa, a smart, confused and unique boy.

The only difference is that they didn't make a fuss, and Chidori seemed to hide the existence of Yosano Akiko. She just simply narrated the cause and process.

In short, the final outcome is that Mori Ogai becomes the councillor who can control and grasp the real power in Japan, and Fukuzawa Yukichi becomes the manager of the Special Powers Division.

After hearing this, Fukuzawa Yukichi had a complicated expression. He never thought that one day this position would be related to him.

It's a bit magical, but after knowing that this is the real world, I also feel that the future created by people's different experiences is indeed uncertain.

He looked at Ranpo Edogawa, suppressed his hand that was about to take the sixth piece of cake, and waited for Ranpo's decision.

Edogawa Ranpo curled his lips and patted the president's hand like a cat. He opened his eyes that had been narrowed all the time and stared at Chidori with his emerald green eyes that were filled with wisdom.

Chidori openly spread out her hands for him to see, as if there was nothing shameful about it. Alice next to her also looked at them with a smile, just like her senior Ranpo Edogawa.

"In your world, there is no detective agency or Hong Kong/Underworld, right?" Edogawa Ranpo asked finally, with a confident smile on his face.

After receiving the other party's affirmative answer, his smile did not change, because he knew that his judgment would not be wrong.

Just like eating and drinking, it was a daily routine for them, and Edogawa Ranpo saw through everything.

He narrowed his eyes again, sipped his sugary black tea, jumped off his chair, and said to Fukuzawa Yukichi, "No problem, President, let's go. We have reached a cooperation agreement."

Fukuzawa Yukichi didn't ask why, of course he believed the other party 100%.

Only after leaving did Edogawa Ranpo talk about his own judgment: "That guy is terrible." As he described it, he raised his head and looked at Fukuzawa Yukichi, his voice was rare and serious.

"He carries at least the life of an island on his back," he then dropped another bombshell, "but his love for Neon and Yokohama, which he sacrificed everything for, is real. If we don't agree, his next goal will be to destroy us."

This Mori Ogai was obviously more radical than the one he knew, but he was also better at hiding things. He knew that if he kept it secret it would only make Edogawa Ranbu suspicious, so he did not hide it at all.

So what if he is bad, so what if he has killed people, even if he has done a lot of evil in another world, but here, he has done nothing.

They were not qualified to judge each other's sins, because the other party was very clear about this, and also very clear that Edogawa Ranpo could see his true heart.

The ability to give everything for one's ideals, to sacrifice everything to achieve the best solution, the love for this country and this city that transcends everything.

For this reason alone, Edogawa Ranpo would cooperate with him, because Fukuzawa Yukichi's love for Yokohama is exactly the same as his.

Finally, Edogawa Ranpo smacked his lips, which still tasted sweet from the cake, and said, "It's very difficult to fight against a madman, especially when the other party is a sober and intelligent madman."

————————

Chidori listened to what Alice said, sighed exaggeratedly, and murmured, "I'm not that bad."

Alice rolled her eyes inelegantly, cursed Chidori in her heart, and then got down to business: "We found out that the people who tested us are from the military, police, and senior government officials, as well as from abroad."

He is now at the center of the storm, launching missions that seem impossible to accomplish. The entire Neon, or the forces that are concerned about Yokohama, have noticed his existence.

"Do you feel disappointed, Alice-chan? This is a plan that everyone thinks is impossible, but all the forces are now watching me, and I have more information than them."

Chidori smiled happily. After bringing the Armed Detective Agency into the picture, he realized that the probability of his plan succeeding increased significantly.

After all, from the beginning, he did not blindly believe that he could succeed, and he did not think that it was impossible like others.

But now... Chidori stroked her red scarf with some excitement. If this was possible, then it wouldn't be impossible for him to be bolder.

But the next second, Alice slapped him.

The supernatural body has reduced its strength to a level that does not cause harm but can still make people sober.

The excitement that had just risen up was instantly extinguished. He blinked his eyes, and his eyes became calm and enthusiastic again.

"Rintaro, remember what happened when you gave me this order." Alice said in a cold voice. At this moment, there was no expression of a girl on her face. She was scanning Chidori like a machine.

This was the order he had given Alice. Once his emotions exceeded his own limits, he would let Alice open his scars again and again to remind him to be rational.

Chidori chuckled. He took Alice's hand, as if he was afraid that she would be hurt. His voice was gentle: "Thank you, Alice-chan. Okay, we should move on to the next step."

Can people really stay rational? He doesn't know the answer, but he knows that he must always be rational and sober in order to take every step towards the correct optimal solution.

"Chuuya, thank you for your hard work on this business trip. You did a great job."

After reading the report submitted by Nakahara Chuuya, Mori Ogai said with satisfaction.

The young man in front of him was not tall, but he was dressed exquisitely, with a top hat and a black cape. His handsome baby face did not look weak at all, but instead was made more powerful by his domineering and powerful aura.

The black-gloved hand took the report and was about to say something when Mori Ogai continued, "Let's take a break for a while. It's like a holiday."

Zhongyuan Zhongye was a little confused. Originally, he was supposed to have a mission to go abroad, but since the leader said so.

He bowed his head slightly and said respectfully, "Yes, Boss."

When he was about to turn around and leave, Mori Ogai called him again. He looked easy-going, his purple-red eyes fell on him, and he said softly: "Dazai seems to be looking for someone recently. If possible, Chuuya, please help him."

"Looking for someone?" Nakahara Chuuya repeated doubtfully. He adjusted his hat and said disdainfully, "Then there's someone that Mackerel can't find either. We need your help, Boss."

Mori Ogai continued with a smile, "Does Chuuya know? Some time ago, a newly elected council member introduced a bill, one part of which was to fill up the Raibo Street."

After he finished speaking, Nakahara Chuuya's face became serious. Although the aura of a gravity user was intimidating, he still restrained himself in front of the leader.

As a test subject from Rabo Street, he considered that place to be his first home, and of course he didn't want anyone with ulterior motives to get close to it.

"I understand." Zhongyuan Zhong was not a fool, and of course he knew what the other party meant. He said seriously, "I will work with Dazai's guy to find the person."

Mori Oo waved his hand, his attitude did not change, as if he was just saying it casually. He reminded: "It's just to give Chuuya a holiday, that person is not important."

It was not known whether Zhongyuan Zhongye heard it or not, and he left with a heavy look on his face.

Sen Ou opened the window of the leader's office, and the sunlight coming in was just bright enough to make him squint uncomfortably.

"Click, click." The sound of little leather shoes walking was heard, and Alice came behind him.

The blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl took Mori Ogai's hand and laughed, "Even if Rintaro doesn't believe it, the identity of that person has already been confirmed."

Mori Ogai patted her head and said pitifully, "Yeah, I really can't believe it, but Alice-chan, this is my Yokohama, and the other party obviously doesn't think so."

"So should we kill him?" Alice tilted her head and said innocently, in a tender tone, "He's in contact with the detective agency and the wealthy man from abroad."

The intelligence department of Hong Kong/Heilongjiang is no pushover, and with the presence of Dazai Osamu, they will certainly be able to find out something.

"Oh, of course not." Mori Ogai took Alice's hand and walked to the window, where they could have a clear view of Yokohama. "She can be even more beautiful. Since someone is doing it for me, why not do it?"

He could already imagine his city getting better and better, and it didn't matter who changed Him.

But they both need to make a balance. The other side doesn't need Yokohama's extra power, and he doesn't need help from someone who stretches his hand too far.

So Mori Ou sent out the [Double Black], the strongest combination of Hong Kong/Black, and he believed that they could definitely check and balance that person.

After all, even though there is an information gap, the other party is now in everyone's sight, and his every move is being closely watched.

After knowing the existence of the other party, the silent war naturally began. They have common interests and an uncompromising bottom line. As for who will be the final winner?

"...Of course it's my Yokohama." Mori Ogai murmured to himself, his hand unconsciously touching the glass, as if he was touching the city to which he had devoted everything.

However, his future plans need to be slightly modified. Mimic's arrival cannot be changed, but he needs to rethink what to do next.

"It's really some sweet troubles, don't you think, Alice-chan?" Mori Ogai reached out and wanted to touch Alice's head again, but the girl dodged him.

She put her hands on her hips and said arrogantly, "It's up to you. Anyway, the perverted Lintaro's ability license is gone. There's nothing you can do about it!"

Mori Ou said nothing, he still kept smiling, there was nothing he could do? How could there be nothing he could do?

He looked out the window at Yokohama again. What would this city look like in the end? No matter what, he knew he would not lose.

…

Chidori raised her eyes. The towering black building in the middle of Yokohama was too out of place in this city.

It's really an eyesore. What will this city be like in the future? It will definitely be more dazzling, but there won't be these buildings anymore.

He knew he would not lose.
