【Warm Past】

The Edogawa family gathered around the dining table, everyone put their right hands on the table, and held their breath.

The atmosphere is stagnant and full of mystery.

"Hey, Ranpo, have you gained weight recently? You can't even run. How are you going to be a policeman in the future?" The father rolled his eyes and pointed the finger at Ranpo.

"I'll go exercise after winter is over." The eleven-year-old Ranpo sneered, "Dad, you've been neglecting your fitness recently, and mom won't even get close to you."

"Mom won't dislike me." Dad looked at his mother who was trying not to laugh, "Honey, tell these two ignorant kids that the love between you and me is unbreakable~"

“Puchichi—hahahaha,” Mom waved her left hand and said apologetically, “Dad, I’m not laughing at you. But it’s really funny to see you holding the bowl on your head, hahaha—”

She has curved eyebrows and is gentle and lovely.

Ring ring ring——

The set alarm sounds.

While his father was staring at his mother, Edogawa Satoru quickly grabbed the glass of water in the middle of the table and poured it directly at his father.

The father, with the bowl on his head, instantly became soaked and shivered in the cold winter.

"Okay - Dad, you're out." The host of the game, Mom clapped her hands and announced that Dad Edogawa was out.

The game between two children and adults was inherently unfair. In order to take care of the two brothers, Edogawa's father, who was a criminal policeman, had to hold a bowl of water on his head and compete with the Edogawa brothers for the water cup.

Then I was unfortunately eliminated in the first set.

In the second game, Edogawa Ranpo vs. Edogawa Satoru.

Rookie Edogawa's father set the alarm: "Three, two, one, start."

Ranpo and Satoru simultaneously pressed down on the table with their right hands.

The rules of this game are that the right hand cannot move before the bell rings, the left hand can move but cannot interfere with the opponent. You can talk and twist your body to divert the opponent's attention. The person who picks up the water cup and pours it out first when the bell rings wins.

"Brother," Wu asked quietly, "didn't you say in the summer that you would go exercise after the summer was over?"

Ranpo raised his left hand and tried to pat Wu's head out of habit, but pulled it back when it was stuck at one centimeter: "Really? You remembered it wrong."

"Being a police officer requires running..." Ranpo slumped his shoulders. "I don't want to run. Is there a way to be a police officer without exercising?"

Wu looked up at the sky, a subconscious action he did when thinking.

Be a police officer but don't exercise?

Ringing——

He suddenly lowered his head and saw that his brother had already picked up the water cup and was looking at him with a smile.

Edogawa Satoru accepted defeat, turned his head, closed his eyes, and prepared to accept the punishment of water.

Dad was hugging Mom, lovingly and affectionately, when suddenly he was splashed with water again.

It was Ranpo who splashed the water at Dad's feet, and the splashing water hit Dad.

The mother winked at Ranpo and pulled the confused father to change his clothes.

The voices of the couple came:
"Your child hates you showing off your affection next to him."
"Isn't it your child too?!"
"You have the nerve to show affection in front of your children."
"My wife, what's there to be embarrassed about?"

Satoru: “I don’t think he’ll be back so soon.”

Ranpo: "Be more confident, our parents won't bother us tonight."

Edogawa Ranpo randomly set a time and asked Xiaowu: "Are you still going?"

Now it's Wu winning one game and Ranpo winning one game, making it a tie at one to one.

"Come."

They positioned themselves and waited for the bell to ring.

Perhaps the ringing seemed to have been set for too long this time, and Edogawa Satoru saw Ranpo yawning.

It is now 10:27 at night. Their family played from day to night. They went to the amusement park during the day and went shopping after dinner at night. After shopping, they played games for a long time. With the normal physical strength of my brother and I, we should be tired.

He raised his hand and picked up the glass of water.

"No, Wu-chan, this is against the rules." Ranpo said angrily.

Edogawa Satoru drank the water in his glass in one gulp: "Then I lose."

Ranpo snorted, took the blanket from Wu's hand, filled half a cup of water and drank it: "We are tied."

He put his arm around Xiao Wu's shoulders and rested his head on them: "I'm so sleepy! Xiao Wu~ Xiao Wu~ I don't want to walk."

"Brother, you are an independent person and you have to walk on your own."

"No!" Ranpo squinted his eyes, not knowing whether he was sleepy or not. He lay on the floor and refused to move. "Hmph!" He glanced at Xiao Wu and confirmed that there was only confusion in Edogawa Satoru's eyes.

"Come and comfort Lord Ranpo!"

Wu tilted his head:?

Edogawa Satoru didn't understand what you were saying.

The atmosphere of the New Year is very strong in the countryside. Beautiful fireworks streak across the window from time to time, embellishing the night sky with a momentary miracle.

Wu squatted down and held Ranpo's hand: "Brother, Happy New Year. I wish you this day every year, every year, every day, every day."

What a silly blessing.

So stupid.

Ranpo suppressed the curled corners of his mouth and put his arms around Edogawa Satoru: "You too."

The same goes for you, my dear brother.

【Chaotic scene】

Senior Panda was lying on the ground, and everyone tucked their lower bodies under his fur, enveloped in warmth.

"It's a very hot day today." Fushiguro Megumi adjusted the air conditioner temperature to 16 degrees.

Kugisaki said disdainfully: "I can tell from the first glance that you don't know how to enjoy life. Eating hot pot in the hot summer and ice cream in the cold winter is the ultimate happiness in the world!"

"Pickled fish roe!"

"Right, right, Senior Inugami agrees with me." Kugisaki said to Fushiguro Megumi with a heavy face, "Don't be so rigid. You are so good at cooking, but it's a pity——"

Edogawa Satoru: "What a pity?" Kugisaki mouthed to him, but it was senior Maki who was smiling.

"Pufferfish." Senior Inujuan had just finished saying this when Yoshino Junpei, who was sitting next to him, also chuckled.

"..."

"Stop teasing Fukuro-kun." Edogawa Satoru tried to smooth things over.

Fushiguro Megumi sighed. His benevolent image had been completely destroyed by Edogawa Satoru. He cursed in his heart, "As expected of Gojo Satoru," and handed the Coke to Gojo. "You were the one who started that bet, weren't you?"

Ah... discovered.

Edogawa Satoru winked at Fushiguro shyly.

Fushiguro Megumi resisted the urge to roll her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttered like butterflies, and she glared, "Don't learn from Gojo Satoru."

Nobara Kugisaki gave Fushiguro a gentle elbow: "Don't talk like me."

Halfway through the hotpot, Kugisaki accidentally soiled her skirt and got up to change into spare clothes.

Megumi Fushiguro went to prepare new ingredients.

"what!!!"

A sharp cry scared Fushiguro Megumi. He put down his food plate and walked out of the public kitchen.

There are six people outside.

Senior Panda, Senior Inujuki, Senior Maki, Nobara Kugisaki, new classmate Junpei Yoshino, and Satoru Edogawa.

Yoshino Junpei covered his face and couldn't bear to watch.

Surrounded by seniors, Edogawa Satoru stood in the middle, his eyes still as clear and innocent, and he was holding up his skirt in his hands.

Kugisaki has already raised his hammer.

Kugisaki threw a little kid at him and finally rushed in front of Edogawa Satoru, who was already wearing pants and a skirt. "Damn it! Don't you know that girls' skirts are not to be touched?!"

"Do you want to die?" Kugisaki was so angry that he was about to burst out.

Satoru quickly shook his head: "The skirt belongs to Maki-senpai, Gojumaki-senpai asked me to do this, and Panda-senpai did the translation."

Without any hesitation, Edogawa Satoru directly passed the blame.

The senior students, referring to the two seniors, involuntarily took a step back.

"Oh?"
Kugisaki held up the hammer and took out a nail from his pocket.

"Then where is my skirt?"

The scene became chaotic, with Kugisaki chasing after the seniors, the seniors chasing after the traitor Edogawa Satoru, and Satoru asking for Kugisaki's protection.

Megumi Fushiguro sat down and ate silently, watching the group of people walking around in circles: As expected, the only one worthy of respect was Otsutsuki-senpai.

Haqiu——

Gojo Satoru, who passed by and brought a gift to Yuji, sneezed.

【Future Memory】

Is this really a BBQ buffet?
Edogawa Satoru looked at everyone grilling meat in a frying pan with confusion.

After Gojo Satoru had the people from the Gojo family set up the venue, he took the microphone and sang non-stop.

Although I don't want to admit it, Gojo Satoru sings really well.

Everyone naturally treated Gojo Satoru as a music player in random mode in the background.

"What a nice mouth, but it's a pity that there is a person in it." Everyone present sighed.

"Ah, open your mouth." Kugisaki passed the meat to Edogawa Satoru, "I wonder how it's fried."

Wu took a bite of the steak, but couldn't chew it, so he held it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

Yoshino saw this and brought a bowl to Edogawa Satoru.

In the distance, Yuji was having a water fight with his seniors. When Mizuki Kura fired a powerful column of water, the sunlight took shape.

"Gojo Satoru's family is so rich that they can even rent this entire beach just for your graduation celebration." said the person behind him.

Edogawa Satoru also echoed: "After all, he is the head of the family. It would be terrible if he had no money."

Someone patted him.

Looking back, it was Edogawa Ranpo.

Ranpo was wearing a detective outfit, with glasses hanging on his nose and a hat holding down his messy hair, looking fresh and handsome.

"Brother!" Wu's eyes curved with smile.

Ranpo was not so happy: "You are about to be kidnapped by him, right?"

"No."

Humph. Ranpo turned and walked to the sweets section, Xiaowu followed him happily, following closely.

Ranpo got angry quickly and calmed down quickly. He tried not to show his pride in front of Edogawa Satoru's admiring gaze and pretended to be a reliable adult.

He recounted the things that happened to him in Yokohama, all of which were strange, exciting, thrilling and moving. Although his eloquence and ability made the story less interesting, the very supportive Edogawa Satoru still listened with great interest.

Before they knew it, everyone except Edogawa Satoru had gathered around to listen.

Seagulls landed on the dining table next to the beach and left wondering how easy it was to get food.

Edogawa Satoru felt a little jealous.

But he didn't say it.

He didn't say anything, but Ranpo noticed it, and it had always been like this. Ranpo whispered in his ear, "Don't worry, I have a story that I've only told you."

……

He woke up slowly.

Endless darkness enveloped him.

What a sweet dream, he thought.
