Accidental Death

After class, Ayatsuji went to the principal's office.

When we met before, All Might mentioned that Principal Nezu had information about the enemy alliance. Although looking at All Might's appearance at the time, this information may not be very important, but it is better than nothing.

"Ayatsuji-kun, I'm sorry to bother you about Bakugo Katsuki." Seeing him walk in, the principal Nezu said, "The deputy director of the police also asked me to thank you, otherwise they wouldn't be able to respond so quickly."

Ayatsuji pedestrians were noncommittal: "Instead of saying thank you, it would be better if they don't make this mistake next time."

Nezu was not surprised by his attitude.

Speaking of which, when Ayatsuji Xingren was in Xiongying's school, he could often hear rumors about him.

There is no other reason, this student is really too good.

At the beginning, the news that he passed the examination of the Imperial Household Agency as a pedestrian in Ayatsuji surprised the whole school.

Thinking of this, Genjin couldn't help shaking his head.

At that time, he met Ayatsuji pedestrian a few times. After the other party became a professional hero in the third grade, Nezu even regretted that Ayatsuji pedestrian was a personalityless person. He felt that if he could have a personality, he would definitely achieve higher achievements.

But think about it now.For Ayatsuji pedestrians, perhaps it would be better to have no abilities.

"All Might should have mentioned to you that a firm affiliated to the Professional Heroes Association has discovered traces of the enemy alliance." Genjin said, pulling out a printed monitoring record and some written materials from his desk .

The gray and white photo showed a man wearing a mask whose face was hard to discern.

"The day before yesterday, the investigators of this firm found traces of suspected members of the enemy alliance in the west of Tokyo. After their investigation, they found that people who claimed to be the enemy alliance had recently been operating there."

"The people of the enemy alliance are very vigilant. After discovering the investigation by the Hero Office, they hid quickly. The area was not very stable, and there were still many gangsters from the old era, so it was very difficult to track down their tracks. In the end, only a few suspected members of the enemy alliance were found in the surveillance video."

Genjin continued: "According to the information obtained from the investigation, the enemy alliance seems to have been developing its own power through various channels recently. So far, many small criminal organizations have been annexed by them. And they are suspected to be related to the underground black arms. There is contact with the merchant, as if buying firearms through this channel."

Ayatsuji pedestrian nodded: "If the people behind the enemy alliance are AFO, then it is very reasonable for them to act like this."

The previous act of sending him a letter can be said to be a provocation, or a declaration of war.

Next, the enemy alliance may have even bigger moves.

Genzu thought it was right, he responded, then frowned and said: "But there is one more strange thing."

Ayatsuji pedestrians looked at him.

"From the intelligence point of view, there seem to be an unusually large number of personality holders within the enemy alliance."

"AFO's personality?" Ayatsuji pedestrian asked.

After all, they all know that AFO's ability can take or give personality to others.

"That's exactly what I'm worried about," Nezu said. "I talked to All Might about it, and All Might said that AFO can indeed give people personality, but it has to be paid for. As far as he knows, the AFO five years ago couldn't give so many personalities in a short period of time."

"..."

Ayatsuji pedestrians sneered: "So that guy became stronger after returning from hell? It's really an unpleasant statement."

"It might just be our illusion." Genjin said. "The current intelligence is still too little to make an accurate judgment."

"Hmm." The detective put down the teacup in his hand and crossed his fingers.

"I'll let you know what's going on in the future."

The detective stood up, but suddenly said before leaving: "Mr. Nezu, it is better to investigate the inside of Xiongying than the outside."

Genzu was stunned: "Inside? Did you find anything?!"

Ayatsuji pedestrians didn't explain much: "It's just a simple suggestion. With AFO's behavior, it is very likely that he will point the finger at Xiongying High School after his 'resurrection'."

……

a few days later.

The 420 incident and the twenty-face incident have subsided one after another.

However, the investigation of the enemy alliance by the police and the Professional Heroes Association has still not made any progress.

A murder occurred in a villa near the port of Yokohama.

Inside the Armed Detective Agency.

"The thing is like this. It seems that an important member of the military and police was killed in the villa under his name. The time of the incident was about last night. The address... seems to be near the port area."

Holding the documents faxed by the police, Atsushi Nakajima said happily, "The police hope that Mr. Ranpo can go over and help solve the case."

When he first joined the detective agency, he had grasped Edogawa Ranpo's unparalleled reasoning ability.Every time I see Edogawa Ranpo easily see through the truth of the incident, I will be very excited-if I have to say, this is more exciting than a detective novel.

"Minato-ku." Edogawa Ranpo was reading a manga serialized in the newspaper, and said unconsciously after hearing Nakajima Atsushi's words.

"What happened to the port area?" Atsushi Nakajima wondered.

Osamu Dazai, who was lying on the sofa, smiled: "The port area is the territory of the port mafia, and the industries there are generally related to the port mafia."

He spread his hands: "It means that this military and police officer may have something to do with the port mafia."

"……I see."

After reading the manga, Edogawa Ranpo threw the newspaper back on the table, then stood up: "Then, let me, the world's number one detective, help those mortals investigate the truth!"

"Mr. Ranpo, do you want me to go with you?" Oda Sakunosuke, who was helping Kunikida Doppo organize the files, turned around and asked.

——As we all know, the world's number one detective is a road idiot.

If you don't follow him, maybe he can get lost to the next city.

Atsushi Nakajima glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and then said: "I'll go this time, isn't Mr. Oda going to take care of the adopted children?"

Edogawa Ranpo didn't have any opinion on this: "It's up to you."

It took a lot of time to get from the armed detective agency to the port area. When Nakajima Atsushi and Edogawa Ranpo arrived at the scene, the police had already drawn up a yellow and black cordon around the villa to isolate the scene.

Atsushi Nakajima flipped through the materials in his hand while walking, and read some information to Ranpo Edogawa—even though the other party repeatedly emphasized that he, who possesses the supernatural ability "super reasoning", does not need to investigate.

"what."

And when he turned to the last page, Atsushi Nakajima suddenly discovered that there was a line of notes behind.

He said unexpectedly: "Mr. Ranpo, it said that there seems to be another detective from the Imperial Household Agency involved in this incident."
