Edogawa Satoru who wanted to be a detective is not a good sorcerer

Think again.

Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid.

Recalling everything that happened at that time.

Qi Huiyuan exhaled slowly.

Her uncle is Yokohama Mayor Huihara Ye. After graduating from the police academy, she became the mayor's security guard and also worked part-time as a clerk, but did not interfere in police affairs.

Huiyuan Ye was a good friend of Edogawa Ranpo's father and often asked Edogawa's father to help him solve cases. After Edogawa's father died, the commission fell on Edogawa Ranpo.

Compared with his attitude towards Edogawa's father, the mayor does not seem to respect Edogawa Ranpo.
"A baby who plays with his talent" is how Huihara Ye described Ranpo.

She didn’t know if it was Qi Huihara’s illusion, but she felt that her uncle Huihara Ye seemed a little afraid of Edogawa Ranpo.

She was just an ordinary employee, but because the original messenger was sick and on leave that day, the secret mission was assigned to Edogawa Ranpo and the task fell on her.

That day was her first meeting with the detective.

On March 3, Huiyuan Qi and Edogawa Ranpo arrived in Tokyo. When they arrived at the villa where the senior official was killed, she was entangled by the official's family and had no time to go down to the basement.

Edogawa Ranpo entered the crime scene alone and came out quickly. She saw him casually say something to the family members, who sobbed and shook their heads and stopped pursuing the case.

The family did not pursue the matter, so the detective shrugged and did not take any further action.

Think hard.
Qi Huihara knocked her head, then pressed her temples hard, her veins bulging, but she didn't even remember the lip shape of Edogawa Ranpo when he spoke to his family members.

And... the more I recall, the more vague it becomes.

What happened next?
Edogawa Ranpo solved the case. He hummed a tune, waved goodbye to the crying family members of the deceased, and walked towards her happily. His black hair swayed slightly in the light, and his squinting eyes seemed to crack open, flashing with great interest.

Youth is like sunshine.

She asked at the time: "Has the case been solved?"

"Yeah, of course. There's no case that a famous detective can't solve." The young man said cheerfully.

She also asked at the time: "Who is the murderer?"

Huiyuan Qi trembled!
Yes, it is to solve the mystery, not to solve it. Who is the murderer? Why is it not in the diary? Why did she realize this only today?
The boy turned around and ran a few steps, walked in front of Huihara Qi, then turned to Huihara Qi and said loudly: "You are so stupid! Solving the case is solving the case, it's over, how can you not see it?"

Qi Huihara in and outside of the memories laughed together.

Young detectives are supposed to be very cute.

She said: "I am like most people, I can't see the truth. Can you please tell me the truth and the criminal, Detective? Please, please, please."

The detective thought.

Edogawa Ranpo said, "It's kou kou kou."

...was muted.

She carefully recalled Edogawa Ranpo's lip movements.

However, an extremely severe headache came.

Water poured into her ears and nose, adding all kinds of expired and sour seasonings, crackling in her mind. Gurgling, she spit out the only bubble in the water, and the bubble decomposed and split in the strange-smelling water, turning into countless bizarre shapes, hitting her fragile cell membranes, hitting the electrical signals connecting her memory synapses, and hitting the surging cerebrospinal fluid.

Qi Huihara twitched in her chair and fell to the ground involuntarily. She covered her head and her memories shattered bit by bit, but she did not give up. She had a premonition that if she didn't figure it out, she might never have another chance.

She struggled to pick up the pen, and all the sweet and salty water that had entered her head came out, from her eyes, nose, and ears. Her mouth just moved in accordance with the shape of Edogawa Ranpo's mouth in her memory, dripping the strange-tasting water as it moved.

As she followed Ranpo and slowly spelled out the word, the sound of a bell interrupted her agony.

It seemed as if the illusion dissipated like the tide.

She picked up the phone.

"How have you been recently? Are you still troubled by nightmares?" the other end asked with a smile.

"uncle……"
She had to leave her security position because she suffered a mental breakdown after witnessing the death of Edogawa Ranpo and no longer had the energy to continue the protection work. Why did her uncle say it was a "nightmare"?
"Uncle, it's not very good. Because of Edogawa Ranpo, I have more pain and nightmares."

"Uncle, what is the 'Curse Master'? What is the secret of Yokohama?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time before a voice came through: "Don't worry about this matter. I know Edogawa Ranpo very well. He would never hurt Edogawa Satoru. And he...you don't understand what kind of talent he has."

"Dududu-"

The phone hangs up.

Why……

Her thoughts were in a mess. Thanks to the sudden ringing of the bell, her mind was now empty.

Qi Huiyuan slowly got up from the ground, and the dirty and bizarre hallucinations disappeared as she woke up. She stumbled into the bathroom, feeling that her hands were covered with black and sticky stuff that had to be rubbed hard to get rid of.

When she looked up, she was shocked to see blood all over her face.

What are you doing!

As she was washing, she thought: The paint splattered really badly just now, wasn't it?

In the weeks that followed, nothing was discovered and the case faded into obscurity.

Until now, only she and Inspector Hanamiya are still investigating the case.

Although Huiyuan Qi no longer has nightmares, she did not choose to transfer back to the Yokohama government. She subconsciously felt that she should not give up just like that.

It was not until July 7 that Hanamiya said to Huihara, "Edogawa Satoru showed up at a store in Tokyo." He frowned and looked gloomy, "We have to catch this murderer."

Huiyuan's head hurt even more: "Murderer? Who?"

"Edogawa Satoru."

what?
Huiyuan Qi raised her head sharply: "Ah?!"

She didn't understand what was happening.

At this moment, she was like a player who kept clicking to skip the dialogue in a game, and then suddenly a battle broke out but didn't know how to control the character.

At night, Edogawa Satoru had to follow Gojo Satoru back to the Gojo family's home.

Don't ask. The only thing you need to know is that he didn't bring his luggage to school and he had no quilt to sleep under at night. The only thing you need to know is that Gojo Satoru forced him to do something against his will and just took him away.

After a day trip to the technical high school, Edogawa Satoru didn't gain much.

He was already tired and even wanted to run away. When he was about to run, he was grabbed by Gojo Satoru and thrown into the room from last night.

Edogawa Satoru protested: "I still have my phone in the classroom. How can I pass the time without it?"

Gojo Satoru didn't care: "I'll get it for you later."

Wu’s body stiffened.

His mobile browsing history!

Gojo Satoru also noticed the moment when Edogawa Satoru lost his composure: "What's wrong?"

Wu didn't know what to say for a moment. He lowered his head and played with his fingers, and said shyly: "Can you bring it back quickly?"

"Why, is there something you can't show to others?"

Edogawa Satoru sighed, "I feel like you're going to look through my phone. Can you please not look through my browser history?"

Gojo Satoru sneered, turned around and teleported to the classroom to get Satoru's things. His phone was in his backpack, with a sticker from the game "Big Devil" on the cover.

He said I would look through his phone, so wouldn't it be disappointing to him if I didn't?
Gojo Satoru curled the corner of his mouth, opened his phone, and under the financial offensive of the Gojo family, asked the person who repaired the phone to unlock the screen.

After opening the lock screen, he clicked into the browser without any hesitation.

"Would you like my brother even if he was wearing a white-haired cat-ear maid costume?" (Volume 5)
Be a Useful Person (Part 2)
"Reading novels at Haitang Bookstore. Large collection"
What to do if my brother kicks me out of the house after eating too much free food
"White Cat Brother Happiness (Volume 4)"
"What kind of people are suitable for eating soft rice, the most complete collection of soft rice"

Gojo Satoru frowned at first, then said “Wow~”

The door was pushed open, and Edogawa Satoru's eyes left the book. He jumped up to catch the schoolbag thrown by Gojo Satoru, but he did not find the cell phone inside.

"White-haired cat-ear maid costume." Gojo Satoru held up the phone in his hand. "If you dress like this, I'll return your phone to you."

"I refuse." Edogawa Satoru's expression was very firm.

Gojo Satoru then said, "I'll go with you."

Edogawa Satoru looked at his phone and hesitated.

"Find a professional photographer to take pictures and capture them from the cutest angles." Gojo Satoru said again.

Edogawa Satoru was tempted: "Give me a copy after you take the photos." Maybe it will be the same as what is written in the novel, and his brother will like it.

Gojo Satoru gave a thumbs up: "OK."

Wouldn't it be natural for Edogawa Satoru to put his cell phone in his hands?
