Xie Shuyi nodded when he heard this. He glanced at a corner of a white paper sticking out from Po's arms. He took a small step back with his right leg, leaned his body back slightly, and his forearm easily reached Po's coat.

After making eye contact with the raccoon on Poe's body, Jie Shuyi gave a professional fake smile and then pulled the paper out of Poe's arms.

When he opened the crumpled white paper, he saw a wanted poster on it.

Thinking of the information just revealed in Ranpo's words, and looking down at the body that has been completely disfigured, it is really hard not to doubt the murderer's purpose in doing this.

He shook the paper in his hand, "Ranpo, is this the face you saw when you fell?"

Ranpo nodded.

Poe expressed his suspicion, "Since the murderer has done so much, it means that the deceased must not be the destroyer himself."

Xie Shuyi readily took over the conversation, "So, what you saw was a fake face connected to a fishing line."

"That should be it." Ranpo said, "The murderer destroyed the face of the dead body beforehand, and covered it with a fake face used for filming. Then he hooked the fishing line on the fake face and adjusted its length so that it would hook onto the face when the dead body fell."

Xie Shuyi held his chin up and looked at the body indifferently, "After all, after the body falls to the ground, no one will find that the deceased's face was disfigured beforehand."

More and more people gathered around. Xie Shuyi raised his head and scanned the crowd, his black eyes passing across every ordinary face.

The phone in my pocket vibrated twice. The special alert tone was obviously a message from someone important.

Ranpo lazily supported his waist, rummaging through his windbreaker as he spoke, "It was the exterminator who pushed him down the stairs in order to disguise himself."

He took out a pair of ordinary black-framed glasses and held them in his hand with a guilty look on his face. "In that case, as long as we use this to find the murderer, everything will be over."

Xie Shuyi took out his cell phone, glanced at the message sent by the uncle, raised his head again, and his eyes fell on the crowd. He quickly locked onto the back of the figure walking against the crowd.

Do you want to chase?

Anyway, Ranpo can find the truth, and blindly going forward to arrest him might only cause trouble.

Xie Shuyi turned off his phone, turned sideways, and stood quietly behind Ranpo, blocking the outside view while waiting quietly for Ranpo to give an answer.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly.

What an amazing little Ranpo.

Po, the only extreme fan present, was already blushing with excitement, "Okay, it's finally here! It's time for the [Super Reasoning] where we can see through the truth in an instant!"

Jie Shuyi glanced over coldly, but the latter seemed unaware and was still immersed in the cheerful atmosphere.

Xie Shuyi's mouth twitched, "Pervert."

Looking back, Ranpo has already completed the [Super Reasoning] at this moment, but unlike his usual cheerful appearance of giving the murderer's information in time and then laughing up to the sky, he lowered his head slightly, and the reflective mirror made it impossible to see his expression.

"I don't know."

Jie Shuyi was closest to him, so he naturally heard Ranpo's whisper.

Walking to Ranpo's side, Xie Shuyi asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Ranpo did not respond immediately, but sat blankly on the stairs at the side, with his head down and his chin supported by his hands, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Xie Shuyi obviously didn't understand what was going on. With such a simple crime process and crime scene, it would be too easy for Ranpo to find the truth.

He glanced at the crowd again. More and more people were joining in the fun, but the figure he had seen earlier had disappeared.

Is the murderer going to escape?

His eyes fell on Ranpo again. Xie Shuyi didn't ask anything. He just sat beside Ranpo and took out some strawberry-flavored candy from his pocket.

Just as he was about to hand it out, he thought about it and stuffed the strawberry flavored candy into his mouth and handed the cantaloupe flavored one out.

The cantaloupe flavor is better. I think Ranpo will like it.

Regardless of whether his special ability has failed or for some other insignificant reason, to others, Ranpo is a special ability user with the ability of [super reasoning], but to Jie Shuyi, Ranpo is just Ranpo.

Even if the sky falls, Ranbu is just Ranbu.

Xie Shuyi considered his tone for a moment, and before he could open his mouth to comfort her, "Ranpo..."

The candy in his hand had been snatched away. Ranpo tore off the candy wrapper in a few seconds and stuffed it into his mouth happily.

He slapped Jie Shuyi's shoulders heavily with both hands, shocking the latter.

"Okay! Give up!"

Ranpo pulled Jie Shuyi up and waved to Po, "In that case, I'll go back to the detective agency first. I'll leave the rest to you."

Ranpo obviously had no intention of staying any longer, and he pulled Jie Shuyi to the other side.

He walked very fast. Xie Shuyi had a lollipop in his mouth. He opened his mouth several times to say that he had taken the wrong road, but he quickly shut his mouth because the lollipop almost fell.

Finally, after passing three intersections, Xie Shuyi finally took out the lollipop while waiting for the traffic light. Looking at the unfamiliar environment around him, he rubbed his nose in confusion.

"Ranpo-kun, are you going to sell me out?"

Ranpo's pace slowed down, "No."

“But I don’t recognize this place at all.”

Ranbu walked even slower, "I remember the detective agency was in..."

"There are no such ancient European buildings near the detective agency." Jie Shuyi interrupted him.

Ranpo kept his mouth shut and looked at the European-style buildings around him that were out of tune with the style of Yokohama. It was obvious that they had entered a new territory that had never been explored before.

"Ranpo, I'm not very valuable." Xie Shuyi looked at Ranpo with a worried look. He was really a little worried that he would be sold.

Ranpo quickly patted the back of his hand in a comforting manner, then pointed happily at the pedestrians in front of him, "It's okay, I'll go ask for directions."

After saying that, Ranpo hurriedly walked across the street.

Xie Shuyi held his forehead helplessly. He seemed to have a feeling of powerlessness as he was painlessly being a father and working hard to raise a child.

Is this how it felt when Uncle and Mr. Dazai took care of me?

No, no, no, it must be even more uncomfortable than I am feeling now.

Compared to himself, Ranpo is simply a little angel.

Xie Shuyi thought so as he walked slowly towards Ranpo's direction. When he saw the person standing in front of Ranpo, he couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.

I couldn't help but sigh, what a small world it is.

His right hand was behind his back, his fingertips slid to the cuffs, holding the hidden weapon in his hand, which made him feel safe. Jie Shuyi put on a smile and slowly approached the two of them.

As soon as he got closer, he heard Ranpo's obedient voice, "Can I bother you for a moment?"

The passerby who was asked the question was obviously startled, and took two steps back uncontrollably. He looked more panicked than surprised.

The smile on Xie Shuyi's lips widened. Judging from this man's alertness, he should be a psychic with non-offensive abilities.

That’s great. Ranpo won’t be hurt when catching people.

Oguri Mushitaro looked at Ranpo from the detective agency who suddenly appeared in front of him in disbelief. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Why was he here? Was he discovered? This is impossible... Wait, why?

Xie Shuyi stood beside Ranpo, and Oguri Mushitaro's hidden emotions surged out again. This is the killer who brought down the Joker organization? ! ! How could he be here? Oh, right. He is a member of the detective agency... Then why is he here! ! !

Ranpo raised his head slightly, "Do you know where the taxi stand is?"

Oguri Mushitaro didn't react at all and just repeated his words mechanically, "Huh? Taxi?"

Ranpo sighed in frustration, "This is what happened. I wanted to take a taxi back to the company. But because of a murder, the mainland was blocked. So I followed the path and came here, but you are the only one I can ask here."

Xie Shuyi looked at Xiaoli Chongtaro sincerely, "Yes, yes, the two of us can't go home, so we have to ask brother to help us."

Oguri Mushitaro has calmed down at this moment and is analyzing the current situation.

The two young men in front of him stood together obediently, looking up at him with extremely kind and sincere eyes.

Especially Xie Shuyi, who was known as a human-shaped killing weapon, even Oguri Mushitaro, with his sincere eyes, was embarrassed to look him in the eye.

As if to cover up, he couldn't help but cough twice.
