When Xie Shuyi was exposed, the smile on his face faded a little.

He slammed his hands heavily on both sides of the chair, and wanted to take the opportunity to scare Ranbu after being exposed, but the latter just held the soda and stared at Jie Shuyi with smiling eyes.

Xie Shuyi suddenly raised his body, snatched the soda from Ranbu's hand, tilted his head back and gulped down most of it himself, then burped.

He sat on the ground, the soda swirling in his hands.

"You always expose me mercilessly like this. I clearly acted very well this time."

Ranpo imitated his movements and sat cross-legged next to Jie Shuyi.

"I can't help it. Even if I didn't see the truth, I know you too well." Ranpo shrugged helplessly, "You still need to polish your acting skills."

Xie Shuyi nodded, "I'll try to conquer you with my acting skills next time."

Ranpo clapped in unison, "Look forward to it."

After the words were spoken, there was a brief silence.

Ranpo pursed his lips, the fragrance in his mouth had not yet dissipated, and it was so sweet that his heart trembled.

"Are you going to take me away?" he asked.

"Yes, only your disappearance can make the other members of the Armed Detective Agency firm in my crazy idea." Xie Shuyi took another sip of soda, and his posture made him look like he was drinking. "Only in this way can..."

Ranpo looked at him quietly, then stood up after a while and patted the non-existent dust on his trouser legs.

"Even I have only glimpsed part of the so-called truth. I know that you want to resurrect Odasaku and make up for those who died because of you, but when I want to know more, it's like I have touched the bottom line of the world. I can only guess vaguely but can't see it clearly." Ranpo lowered his head and looked at someone who was drinking happily.

"Jie Shuyi, I saw your dead end. It was caused by us."

Although it was a matter of life and death, Xie Shuyi's eyes actually lit up after he confirmed that he could die. His black pupils clearly reflected his owner's excitement.

"Yes, yes, yes, a dead end is the only correct solution."

Ranpo's brows furrowed deeply, "Jie Shuyi, no matter what it is, the price you have to pay is too high."

After hearing this, Xie Shuyi was stunned for a moment. He put the soda on the ground, gathered his robes and stood up. "Today...have you never thought about leaving with me?"

Ranpo said nothing.

Xie Shuyi looked at him, "You are here to persuade me..."

The moment he realized this, Xie Shuyi suddenly looked up and around. Sure enough, when he hadn't noticed, a small, light green barrier had already surrounded the two of them.

Jie Shuyi raised his hand and swung it violently. The barrier constructed by [Xixue] was instantly broken, and the figures hiding in it gradually appeared.

Fukuzawa Yukichi walked out, and the rest of the detective agency followed behind him, including Kunikida, Yosano, and Atsushi.

There was a flash of regret in Xie Shuyi's eyes.

He was so engrossed in the conversation with Ranpo just now that he didn't realize so many people had come, and he didn't even notice.

"It's not that you are not sensitive, but you are used to not being on guard against us." Ranpo stood beside Jie Shuyi.

"Jie Shuyi, I can't guess your motives and goals, but you can tell us." Fukuzawa Yukichi strode forward, "Even if the sky falls, we will never abandon any of our companions."
