In Yokohama, I used a vest to make up the Saviors

Atsushi Nakajima was arrested the day before.

An invitation letter trimmed in black and gold was stuffed into the mailbox of the Armed Detective Agency, with a line written on it and an address.

【Mr. Edogawa Ranpo, Ms. Funagawa Asaka/Welcome to the detective game】

That's why Funagawa Asaka and Edogawa Ranpo came to this building.

"Long time no see, Ranbu-kun, the puzzle pasted on the door is already..."

Edgar Allan Poe was just ready to face the old opponent Edogawa Ranpo and the rookie Funagawa Asaka, when he was startled by a group of people who pushed the door and walked in. The raccoon on his shoulder couldn't stand still. It slammed down on the table.

"Why are there so many people?" Poe put down the pen in his hand and said sullenly, "I only invited two detectives."

"Miss Yosano is Ranpo's assistant, and Weikang is my assistant. Is it hard to understand?" Funagawa Asaka stepped forward after entering the door, put her hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and the bulky black The framed glasses couldn't hide the eagerness in the eyes: "You are the guy who wants to challenge us?"

Edgar Allan Poe was forced to lean back by the detective girl, his gloomy appearance was completely ruined by the blush on his face: "Yes, we...we were defeated by Mr. Ranbu six years ago, this time It is a shame to come here."

Edogawa Ranpo raised a question mark on his head: "Who are you?"

Edgar Allan Poe was hit by this sentence: "Don't you remember... It's a waste of my life to participate in the expedition of the group just for you..."

Funagawa Asaka didn't care so much, she directly picked up a cowhide bag on the table, and said under Edgar Allan Poe's astonished gaze: "The internal structure of the white whale, take this as a bet, right? We accept this challenge." Now, you can activate your abilities now."

"Okay...no." Edgar Allan Poe looked confused, he hadn't had time to explain why the plot seemed to be fast-forwarded?

In order to maintain his own face, Edgar Allan Poe's whole atmosphere turned into a gloomy villain again: "Do you see that this is a trap? You really deserve to be a detective recognized by Mr. Ranbu, but it's too late .”

The little raccoon, who was thrown all over the table and managed to get up, let out a cry, and snatched the leather bag from Funagawa Asaka.

Yosano Akiko frowned: "A trap?"

Oda Sakunosuke saw it, and five seconds later, a golden light flashed across the room, and all of them were sucked into the future in a book.

He wanted to tell everyone to run, but when he saw Ranpo Edogawa and Asaka Funagawa looking forward to it, he seemed to have planned it, and even Ranpo Edogawa stepped forward to take the supernatural novel in Edgar Allan Poe's hand. I snatched it over and read it, then silently swallowed the words back.

"The trap is too obvious." Edogawa Ranpo said contemptuously. He turned the first page of the book, a little impatiently: "Detective novels, what's so interesting about such things that you can know the ending from the beginning."

"His ability is to pull people into the world of novels, which is a real-life detective game." Funagawa Asaka waved her hand, and asked Yosano Akiko and the others to come over: "It just so happens that the real case is not interesting, and Ranpo Going to compete in supernatural novels is a way to pass the time."

Edgar Allan Poe, who was inexplicably used as a doctrine and robbed of his words, was stunned for two seconds, and then continued to speak according to the words of the previous rehearsal: "Since you all know, then I will speak directly."

"The story of this book is that several tourists were trapped in a foreign mansion by a snowstorm and could only stay overnight. As the protagonist of the private detective, he woke up because of a strange sound coming from outside the room."

The book that Edogawa Ranpo was holding was emitting a golden light.

Everyone's eyes went dark, and then from the center, they opened a gleaming golden door, revealing the pure white space behind the door, occupying their sight.

"Welcome to the House of Tragedy."

Poe's voice was still telling the background of the detective story.

"The hero opened the door with the key he kept, and then he saw, the victim."

The sound ends.

Funagawa Asaka found herself standing in front of a door, her clothes had been changed into elegant dresses, a yellow bow tie was hung on her chest, she was dressed like a noble lady.

Have you changed your clothes yet?

She touched her single twist and looked around.

A luxuriously decorated Western-style hotel with no obvious traces of modernity. Is the background of the story in the Middle Ages... No, it is retro, just like a theme hotel.

【Luxury curtains using bronzing process】

It is by no means a fine product that can be produced without the development of modern technology.

The technology of this mansion surrounded by wind and snow is definitely more developed than it looks.

Funagawa Asaka's birthplace was outside the door of a room, and it looked like she had just come back from the outside. At this moment, several people hurried past her, one of them was Akiko Yosano, and Funagawa Asaka also followed. .

When she arrived at the destination, Funagawa Asaka swept around.

[Student] Reita, [Magazine Reporter] Tsuki, [Resident Doctor] and Yosano Akiko, [Hooligan] Oda Sakunosuke, [Private Detective] Edogawa Ranpo, the [manager] who fell in a pool of blood 】.

Without the hindrance of glasses, everyone's identity information is reflected in Funagawa Asaka's eyes like a holographic online game.

[The window is closed, because there is no snow and the dust is very thick, so it has not been opened recently, it is a secret room]

[There are no fingerprints on the murder weapon, no suspicious blood on the side, and the whole scene is only the footprints left by the private detective when he opened the door]

Very typical impossible crime.

The murderer can only be.

Funagawa Asaka's eyes fixed on the "murderer" above Ranpo Edogawa's head.

The first person to find the body.

She pursed her lips a little bored, this is not as interesting as the real case, murder in a secret room in a blizzard, everyone and clues crowded into a small place.

However, the idea is very good, a completely closed secret room, the only private detective with the key to solve this impossible crime, the detective trusted by everyone is the murderer, if it is not for her ability, even Luanbu would have to Think about it for a long time.

Funagawa Asaka just wanted to tell the truth with pride, but was startled by Edogawa Ranpo's expression at the moment.

She had never seen such Edogawa Ranpo.

Hesitant, frightened, overwhelmed.

The usual lively detective outfit was replaced by a more stable and low-key black kimono, and the boy seemed to have become an adult, losing the innocence and romance he always hung around, and becoming dignified and panicked.

He's afraid of... what?

Before Funagawa Asaka had time to ask, she saw Edogawa Ranpo ran out from the corpse with his head down, plunged into his room, and closed the door with a slam.

Funagawa Asaka was a little puzzled.

Isn't it just that there is no ability?Even without supernatural powers, Edogawa Ranpo is still superior to thousands of people.

She followed.

Edogawa was curled up on the sofa in disorder, his soft black hair covered his bright green eyes, this was a very insecure posture.

"Random steps." The little girl called him a little confused: "What's wrong with you?"

"My glasses are gone." Edogawa Ranpo closed his eyes a little bit listlessly, like a little black cat that has been drenched in a torrential rain: "The detective's ability can only be activated with glasses... I will leave this case to you, Qianxiangjiang."

But you don't have supernatural powers at all?

As soon as they met, Funagawa Asaka saw the label of "Genius without supernatural power" on Edogawa Ranpo's head, and the system also told her that Edogawa Ranpo was an ordinary person.

system......?

Can't contact the system.

Outside the arena, Otonashi String Music was full of question marks. He tried to input too much consciousness into Funagawa Asaka, but the result was still that he couldn't contact the system.

[Poe's ability [The Black Cat of the Rue Morgue] is an independent subspace, the world consciousness is himself, and the system cannot enter without his knowledge]

Otonashi String Music felt something was wrong: "Asaka Funagawa?"

【Just what you think】

Yosano Akiko and Oda Sakunosuke, who were left outside the venue, finished their on-site investigation at this moment, opened the door and walked in.

Yosano Akiko is wearing a white coat, wearing glasses, and the clothes assigned by Oda Sakunosuke as a "thug" are a bit sloppy. A coarse gray coat hangs loosely on the body, revealing a large piece of lean chest .

"This scene is really too real." Yosano Akiko was in charge of closing the door, she complained: "Blood, corpses, and my ability [Please Don't Die] can't be activated..."

After closing the door, she turned around and was startled when she saw the scene inside the room: "Mr. Ranpo, Miss Qianxiang, who are you?"

Edogawa was lying on the sofa in disorder, with a look of disillusionment, Funagawa Asaka sat on the other side, with an expression that had been overturned.

Asked by Akiko Yosano, Funagawa Asaka reacted, and the little girl raised her head: "Ah, I just learned some wonderful things."

"How wonderful?"

"For example, after you have lived for more than [-] years, it is so wonderful to suddenly realize that you are a man." Funagawa Asaka compared.

She just realized that the Edogawa Ranpo she carried out was a series of reasoning of the 'murderer'---yes, it was reasoning, and there was a problem.

The cheating contestant Funagawa Asaka, who always directly sees whether there is a 'murderer' logo on the murderer's head, is reasoning.

This is what a third-rate detective would do.

Her logo turned out not to be a supernatural power, but an integration made by the system based on the information she could see?

Your family is integrated, so you can see through other people's abilities at a glance?Can you see the murderer written on the murderer's head?

Off-site, the system's innocent explanation of the image and sound without strings: [This is just a little micro-processing for your convenience in manipulating the vest]

"So, is Ms. Funagawa male?" Oda Sakunosuke was a little strange: "It doesn't look like it."

"Oda." Yosano Akiko stopped the destructive atmosphere of Oda Sakunosuke: "So, what happened, Miss Asaka?"

She looked at Edogawa Ranpo who wanted to sleep again: "And Mr. Ranpo?"

Shouldn't we quickly solve the case and leave here, and then take the information on the white whale in the leather bag?

Why did the two heavyweight players on their side all wither?

"I don't have glasses! Those are the important power-activating props given to me by the president."

"My reasoning turned out not to be a supernatural power."

The voices of the two overlapped.

Funagawa Asaka was shocked.

Edogawa Ranbu snorted softly and turned his head away.

Yosano Akiko couldn't hold back, she laughed out loud, and when Edogawa Ranpo looked over, she covered her mouth: "Mr. Ranpo, don't be compared to Ms. Asaka at this time."

Edogawa went crazy: "Who is to be compared? Since she has seen the truth, let her say that the famous detective is in a bad mood and doesn't want to solve this case!"

"There's no supernatural power, you're lying." Edogawa turned over and buried his head in the sofa cushion: "Asaka's prophecy is so obvious, how could it be that there is no supernatural power?"

Aren't the members of that organization all dual abilities?Funagawa Asaka's prophecy does not conflict with reasoning.

Yosano Akiko wanted to say that, but was stopped by Funagawa Asaka who reacted, she waved her hand to tell Yosano Akiko not to say it.

Then he said in a suddenly enlightened voice: "Ranbu is right, I have a supernatural power, and I can't use the supernatural powers of Ms. Xie Ye and Oda, but I can."

Hearing the words, Edogawa turned around and said in a provocative voice, "You said just now that you have no special abilities."

"Because I told Ms. Yosano that I can't use my abilities, so I preconceived." Asaka Funagawa stuck out her tongue: "It may be because this is the space of abilities, my reasoning will be hindered to some extent, but the prophecy is not true. meeting."

Edogawa Ranbu snorted coldly, and sat up from the sofa: "How can the ability be hindered, don't blurt out a lie, Qianxiangjiang."

He gritted his teeth, with a resigned expression on his face: "You have seen the truth a long time ago, and you have accepted the reality so freely, a detective is still like this as an adult man..."

He is 11 years older than Funagawa Asaka.

She blinked with Akiko Yosano.

Therefore, Mr. Ranpo was angry not because he found out that he had no powers, but because Ms. Asaka was so slow that she didn't notice the strangeness in herself. She was the first to see the truth, and she remained calm after knowing that she had no powers?

Funagawa Asaka burst out laughing, threw herself in front of Edogawa Ranpo, put her hands beside his legs, her green eyes that were not covered by black-rimmed glasses shone like stars: "I'm not making up nonsense, I am an anomaly in this world, different from you."

The little girl was dressed in a red dress, with a bright yellow bow tie on her chest, which was playful and smart: "I predicted that next----"

"The famous detective Luanpo will show his power, solve the case in a flash, and take us out of here."
