The slender and sharp black beast lost its violent appearance under the use of its master, and gently wrapped around Yosano's waist like a soft rope.

The black beast continued to extend, slowly wrapping around Yosano's neck, and then, as if testing, it crawled towards Jie Shuyi's palm little by little.

Xie Shuyi frowned slightly and subconsciously loosened his hand. Without support, Yosano fell backwards instantly, but was protected by another black beast in the next second.

Yosano, wrapped by two black beasts, was slowly suspended in the air, and then was brought into Akutagawa's arms by tentacles.

The familiar supernatural power in front of him has already revealed the identity of the visitor.

Xie Shuyi looked up and his eyes met Akutagawa's in the air. He frowned slightly and looked away calmly.

actually...

Xie Shuyi was not surprised by the latter's appearance.

On every sleepless night, Jie Shuyi read "Death Note" countless times.

The names of millions of people were firmly engraved in his mind, but from beginning to end, Xie Shuyi never found Akutagawa's name.

He also wondered if he had missed something.

But from now on, all thoughts are gone.

Akutagawa...has always been alive.

He's not dead.

Always live well.

Realizing this, Xie Shuyi should have felt relieved, fortunate, and happy.

But Jie Shuyi tried hard to pull the corners of his mouth, but when he spoke, his tone was frighteningly cold.

"It seems that... it was the Armed Detective Agency who took you away."

Akutagawa held Yosano in one hand, and he easily protected the person in his arms with just his forearm.

He walked down, his heavy footsteps colliding with the iron stairs with a dull sound. Until he reached the front of everyone, Akutagawa returned the person in his arms to Kunikida.

The movements were smooth and flowing. Akutagawa did not waste time on other people. Instead, he turned around after finishing the task with a smile in his eyes.

"You're back." He looked at Jie Shuyi steadily.

The footsteps on the stairs did not stop. Atsushi had been following behind Akutagawa, but he was a few minutes slower. As soon as he came downstairs, he saw what the two were doing.

My feet felt like they were nailed to the stairs as if they were filled with lead, and my palms gripping the handrail tightened unconsciously.

Dun stared at Jie Shuyi with his eyes fixed, the feeling of suffocation in his heart became stronger and stronger, that inexplicable anger continued to burn in his chest.

Before bringing Akutagawa, Atsushi took Lucy's body to the crematorium alone.

In the current chaotic Yokohama, leaving the body intact might even risk being destroyed, so Atsushi had no choice but to send Lucy away like that.

The joyful girl left this world quietly and alone.

The two people at the bottom of the stairs were still immersed in their own world.

Akutagawa stared at Jie Shuyi's eyes closely, and only after confirming again and again that there was no more horrible scarlet in the depths of those eyes did he feel inexplicably relieved.

He raised his hand to smooth down the messy hair on Jie Shuyi's forehead, but the latter subconsciously took half a step back.

Xie Shuyi pursed his lips tightly, as if he realized that his action was inappropriate, and hesitated whether to step forward, but after a while he still stood still and raised his hand to pull the brim of his hat forward.

Akutagawa was not angry, and his tone remained calm as he described his recent situation.

"After waking up, I returned to the port. The Mafia has been busy dealing with internal chaos these days. So I did not participate in the Armed Detective Agency's operations, and I didn't have time to find you."

Akutagawa put his hand behind his back and looked at Jie Shuyi with a smile, "It's great to see you free from the control of the curse."

Akutagawa looks cold, but he can always say the most tender words in the calmest tone.

Xie Shuyi's eyelashes trembled slightly when he heard this. No matter how cold-blooded or numb he was, when he heard Akutagawa's words, he couldn't help but think of everything that happened on that rainy night.

Witnessing a close friend die right before my eyes...

It's really uncomfortable.

Facts really prove that...anyone who follows him will not have a good ending.

Xie Shuyi closed his eyes and forced himself to calm his restless heart. He took another step back. Although he did not speak, he had already made his attitude clear.

Whoever it is...

Anyone who can influence him to complete the plot.

Xie Shuyi will never be merciful.

The hanging hand trembled unconsciously, but powerful supernatural power was still gathered in the palm.

But before Jie Shuyi could take action, a clear female voice sounded behind him.

Yosano had recovered at some point. She raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ears. Now she was squatting in front of Miyazawa Kenji, patting the boy's cheek gently with her palm.

"Oh my, it seems that I don't care about you enough. Why are you really hoping for my death?"

When Miyazawa Kenji heard the voice, he looked up blankly. The tears on his face had not yet dried, and his face full of tear marks looked so pitiful.

The moment he saw Yosano, his tears showed no signs of stopping and instead became more and more violent, his tender little face wrinkled.

The next moment, Miyazawa Kenji threw himself into Yosano's arms.

The half-grown man almost knocked Yosano to the ground.

"Wow!! Dr. Yosano! I thought you, I thought you..." Kenji cried out of breath, but his hands were tightly holding Yosano's neck.

Yosano just laughed out loud. She supported herself on the ground with one hand and patted Miyazawa Kenji's back with the other hand, comforting him as if she was coaxing a child.

She raised her head and met Jie Shuyi's gaze.

The corners of Yosano's lips curled up slightly, and he even raised his hand and waved at Jie Shuyi, greeting him in a good mood.

Her face was full of life, but there was no trace of anger.

It was clear that she had been killed by Jie Shuyi just a few minutes ago.

But at this moment, he seems like nothing happened.

Xie Shuyi took a quick glance and then looked away, almost forgetting about it.

Sister Yosano’s special ability is——Please don’t die.

Even if Yosano really died, he would use the Death Note to resurrect her in the future.

But at that moment, Xie Shuyi felt inexplicably relieved.

Yosano tucked her hair behind her ears, smiling happily, "You want to kill me just like this, Xiao Shuyi, you look down on me too much."

Xie Shuyi did not answer.

It's true that I wanted to kill Yosano just now, but it's also true that I underestimated my enemy.

Fighting alone for too long, Xie Shuyi forgot about the Armed Detective Agency...

They are the protagonists of this small world.

Everyone is a powerful superpower.

Behind the crowd, Ranpo walked out slowly.

In the fingertips of his right hand was a glass bead shining with colorful light. When he looked up, his eyes were sparkling, especially when he looked at Jie Shuyi, the light in his eyes was even brighter.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get down to business."

Not good.

This was the first thought that Xie Shuyi and Ranpo had after looking at each other.

After spending several years together, he already had a very good understanding of Ranpo's abilities.

Ranpo's strength has nothing to do with supernatural powers; his reasoning ability is entirely the result of his natural intelligence and insight.

An intelligent psychic is much more valuable than a brutal and aggressive psychic.

If it weren't for the fact that Xie Shuyi was planning something that involved world consciousness and gods, his actions towards Ranpo would definitely not be as simple as imprisonment.

Maybe from the beginning he would have...

But no matter how unbelievable the truth is, with Ranpo's ability, he can find out the truth as long as he is given enough clues and time.

Ranpo could definitely guess Jie Shuyi's intention.

This is definitely not what Xie Shuyi wants to see.

He grabbed Taguchi Rokuzo's wrist and tried to leave, but Atsushi was already waiting at the door.

As early as the moment Jie Shuyi pushed open the door of the underground base, he was already trapped in a jar and could not escape.

If you want to leave, the only way is to kill everyone here.

But if we kill them all now, who will be able to kill Jie Shuyi in the future?

Xie Shuyi looked up and looked at Dun.

For him, this...

It's a dead end.

"Whether it was killing Lucy, killing the store manager, or just attacking Dr. Yosano, all you wanted was to make us hate you. You wanted us to distrust you..."

Ranpo walked behind Shuyi, who understood him, and said, "These emotions were just given to you by Tanizaki, Jinghua, and Kenji."

Xie Shuyi turned his head sharply and asked, "Were you guys acting just now?"

wrong...

He glanced at the crowd. Except for the three people pointed out by Ranpo, neither Mr. Kunikida nor Atsushi, who arrived late, behaved in an extreme manner.

Under normal circumstances, the moment Jie Shuyi attacked Sister Xie Ye, these two people should have stepped forward to stop him.

Instead of hesitating and waiting until the situation develops before showing a painful look.

So there is only one possibility.

Except for the three children named by Ranpo, the rest of the people were aware of what happened tonight.

Xie Shuyi suddenly realized something and his eyes were filled with shock.

Ranpo even predicted that he would attack Yosano tonight.

No....

It's not that he will do something to Yosano, but that Yosano will let him do something to her.

From the very beginning, every word and every action of Yosano was to stimulate Jie Shuyi and force him to kill him.

......

"Please don't die"

It’s not because Yosano’s ability is to please don’t die that he was able to survive.

But because her special ability is to ask others not to die, she is the one who implements this plan.

Xie Shuyi fell silent, and suddenly felt that he was the lamb that had strayed into the wolf pack.

"you..."

Ranpo raised his eyes and smiled at Jie Shuyi, "You got 'anger' and 'hatred' from us, but I also got everything I wanted to know from your expression."

"You can't possibly know." Xie Shuyi retorted subconsciously, but his brows were already deeply furrowed.

"In fact, that day, after you left the Armed Detective Agency, we did not pursue your whereabouts with the police, but went upstairs to check." Ranbu said.

Xie Shuyi was stunned and subconsciously used force with both hands. Without him noticing, he even pinched Taguchi Rokuzo's wrist until it turned purple.

The latter looked up in confusion, but instantly realized why Jie Shuyi was so disturbed.

Ranpo paused, then continued, "The detective agency was kept spotless, and we also saw in the ward..."

"Enough." Jie Shuyi interrupted.

When he raised his head, his eyes, hidden by the brim of his hat, were already red. "I don't care what you guessed, that's your business. I can promise you that I won't take action against the Armed Detective Agency, won't take action against Yokohama, and won't disrupt the situation in the world."

His voice trembled, "You...all get out."

At this moment, perhaps it was not just the death of Odasaku that made Xie Shuyi lose his composure.

An inexplicable emotion arose in his heart.

--fear.

Xie Shuyi suddenly realized that Ranpo was just one step away from the truth.
