"Who are you?" Ranbu said unceremoniously, "Don't stand in front of us."

Bakugo Katsuki clicked his tongue and moved his wrist: "You have to ask the person standing over there."

Araki Ryosuke, who was suddenly named, sighed helplessly, but the words in his mouth were not polite: "...you are annoying, you know? I don't have time to fight with you now."

Bakugo Katsuki pursed his lips, he stood on the spot with his hands in his pockets, he didn't come over to challenge him involuntarily like Araki Ryosuke thought, or some other stress reaction, instead he stood not far away Take it a step further: "I know your name."

Ryo Araki's interface did not change color: "Yes, Osamu Dazai."

Luanbu glanced at him, but didn't say anything other than making a gasp.

Of course, although Ranpo is always like a child, it doesn't mean that he will do his own thing regardless of the occasion, he will do it just because he doesn't care, and at this moment, standing beside Ryosuke Araki, he chose He only hovered his eyes between the two, and did nothing.

"In this competition, I will definitely defeat you with my own hands." Bakugo Katsuki said, he stared at Ryosuke Araki, but his scarlet eyes had settled down at this moment, he squeezed the fingers hanging on the edge of his trousers, Gritting his teeth, he said in a deep voice, "Just wait and see, the victory belongs to me."

Ryosuke Araki: "..."

After saying this, Bakugo Katsuki took a deep look at him, pulled up the schoolbag on the ground, carried it with one hand and walked away without looking back, this was a bit unexpected, Ryosuke Araki thought that The other party would violently ask him for a fight or something, but unexpectedly, he just issued a challenge letter to him, treating him as an imaginary enemy.

This guy, it seems that what Izuku Midoriya said is correct, but his temper is a little grumpy, and he is not a very unreasonable person.

Beside him, Ranbu casually said: "You used Osamu Dazai's name."

"That's right," Ryosuke Araki admitted bluntly, turned around and pinched Ranbu's face, and said maliciously, "Who made him always ruin my reputation?"

"Okay, Ranpo-sama also thinks it's great." Because his face was pulled, Ranpo said vaguely, "Then! It's decided, next time I'll call you Dazai."

"..." Araki Ryosuke, "That's not necessary."

They quickly left Bakugo Katsuki behind, and took Ryosuke Araki's hand in disorderly steps. The two walked into the alley, and the shadow of the building cast over them, like a dark cloud moving towards them. In the depths of the alley, a person stood with his back to them, and beside him were two other people—no, they shouldn't be called people either.

These are the two Heroic Spirits brought to the present world by the power of the Holy Grail.

"I noticed your breath just now."

Holmes said, wearing a small British shawl. He still held an unlit pipe in his hand, and leaned against the wall with his arms folded.On the opposite side of him, the Cave King was half sitting on the ground, and the pipes here were still dripping water, forming a puddle of wetness, while the Cave King just stretched out his hand to catch the small water droplets, with a very indifferent expression.

"But based on this kid's request, I can't meet you in person, Ryosuke."

"No need." Araki Ryosuke said.

These two people who were asked by Ryosuke Araki to protect Ranpo were beside Edgar Allan Poe. It seemed that what Ranpo said to them made them change their minds—Ryosuke Araki didn't think they were the kind who would easily People who change their ways because of other people's words can only show that Ranpo and them have a common secret.

And he has no interest in exploring it for the time being.

"Holmes," Araki Ryosuke said, "Also, Earl, do you get along well?"

The Cave King glanced at him coldly, snorted, and immediately disappeared from everyone's sight, as if he was already very impatient, and didn't even bother to cover it up.

Holmes smiled helplessly at Ryosuke Araki: "Are you referring to me and this earl?"

"Actually, he hasn't said a word to me so far." Holmes spread his hands and mused, "I think he hates me a bit. I probably left a bad impression on him in the Holy Grail War last time. I don't like reasoning games."

Ryosuke Araki let out an "uh". Although the figure of the Cave King disappeared, he was sure that the other party must be around him, so it was not easy to say his evaluation, so he just smiled. Fortunately, Holmes obviously didn't want to Asked for his answer, his figure disappeared into the alley immediately.

Edgar Allan Poe turned around. The American detective with dark green ribbons and brown hair was holding his little raccoon Carl in his arms. A new notebook with a cover, probably a new novel.

"Poe—here I come!" Ranbu suddenly let go of Araki Ryosuke and said, he walked over, slapped Poe on the back, and pushed the American detective several steps forward , "Hey, Poe, how is the new story I mentioned? Have you written well these days?!"

Luanbu crossed his hips, looking like he was oppressing Edgar Allan Poe for granted.

Ryosuke Araki: "..."

He was a little worried that the group would file a multinational lawsuit because their consultant was bullied.

"We..." Poe whispered something, "We haven't..."

Luanbu put his hands around his mouth and ordered him like a trumpet: "Speak up——!"

Edgar Allan Poe immediately shuddered, and he hugged the little raccoon Carl in his arms suddenly, as if he could gain strength in this way, Ryosuke Araki could see that his whole body became tense because of this, as if A balloon device that is suddenly stuffed with air, and it will explode when poked again: "Okay, okay!"

This picture is almost invisible.

"I haven't written the story of Ranbu Junyao yet." He said, his voice finally became indistinguishable from a normal person's volume this time, "Because I... I have never written a fairy tale..."

Hearing this, even Ryosuke Araki showed a sympathetic expression, asking a detective novelist to write fairy tales, isn't this deliberately embarrassing others.

"You can write." Luanbu said, "Because Poe can write, and Poe can definitely write well."

Surprisingly, after the words of Ranpo fell, Edgar Allan Poe, who was originally very depressed, suddenly became happy, and he said: "... I know! I will ask Mr. Ranpo before next week The content of the story is written!"

Luanpo reluctantly nodded to Edgar Allan Poe like a leader meeting his subordinates: "Hurry up and finish it, Master Luanpo wants to use it."

Araki Ryosuke: "..." What happened, these two people will become what they are now.

And Ellen Poe seemed to see through what Ryosuke Araki was thinking, and he looked at Ranpo with admiring eyes: "Ranpo-kun's reasoning ability is really amazing! I didn't even get into the plot of the book, I knew that I probably What kind of story is going to be written——it really deserves to be [Super Reasoning]!"

Luanbu raised the corner of his mouth: "That can be done casually."

"No, you are indeed very strong, and I admire you so much!"

"..."

The two detectives began to flatter. Poe has obviously become a fan of Ranpo, and Ryosuke Araki has never seen him like this before, and he seems to be quite fond of Poe. Intrigued, it looks like the two detectives have become friends in just a few hours.

Speaking of detective reasoning, Ryosuke Araki couldn't help but look at Poe: "Have you seen Mr. Yayatsuji?"

Poe didn't dare to look him in the eyes, he didn't seem used to meeting people's eyes: "Not yet...but I recognize his ability, I saw the news of AFO's accidental death, he must have done it."

The expression of Luanbu, who was originally very happy, suddenly changed, and then he said suspiciously: "Hey, Poe, what's going on with that expression of yours that dare not look at each other?!"

Edgar Allan Poe was stunned: "Huh?"

Ryosuke Araki was ashamed to look at him. He explained: "...Ranbu's nerves are a little sensitive recently, it's okay, just talk to me normally."

"What is nerve sensitivity! I heard it!" Luanbu yelled, he was very dissatisfied, "Master Luanbu heard everything, don't say such things behind my back!"

Edgar Allan Poe was sweating, and hugged the little raccoon Carl tremblingly: "Well, my nerves are sensitive, I feel it..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Luanbu inserted between the two of them, spread his hands and pushed them to the sides of his body, and opened the distance. Then he retracted his hands in satisfaction, hugged them, and made a contemplative expression .

"You guys, keep your distance." Luan Budao said, "It's you, Poe."

Edgar Allan Poe: "...well, well."

Ryosuke Araki: "..."

"Okay, let's get down to business." Ranbu raised his voice, "Poe, you are the team leader of the American high school, right?"

Hearing this, Poe nodded, and he showed a cute smile. If it can be visualized, there will definitely be special effects: "That's right, this is what I used to come to Japan to meet you this time, and now I am bringing the American Students, go back after this competition is over."

Originally, according to his age, he shouldn't have appeared here, but Poe ran to find the leader of the group, Fitzgerald, and the other party easily accepted his consultant's request and used his privileges. It seems that Edgar Allan Poe is not too old, so it is normal to want to go out and play.

Before leaving, Fitzgerald specifically asked: "Poe, you go to Japan without any acquaintances, won't you be too scared to go out? How about I ask a member of the group to accompany you."

But Edgar Allan Poe bravely refused the leader's care, which was a big improvement for him!Is the ideal power of detective career!

How could he shrink back because he didn't want to go out, and even wanted to be accompanied? !He is not a child anymore.

After listening, Araki Ryosuke had a complex expression, and said sharply: "Poe, although I really don't want to say it, but the students in the United States are actually taking you. I saw a group of people who dared not move at the gate of Xiongying School before, and they were anxious. I went to the teacher and said that an important member was lost... so the missing team leader is you?"

Edgar Allan Poe, whose truth was exposed, was messed up in the wind.

It's true...it's true...

"I've said it all, don't worry about me..." He whispered again, hesitating for a moment when he heard Araki Ryosuke's words, showing guilt, and staring at him with that kind of probing eyes, "They are really... ...Are you waiting for me at the school gate?"

Before answering, Araki Ryosuke thought for a while, he first took a look at Ranpo, and saw something in the other party's line of sight...

Oh... do you do that?

can.

So, Araki Ryosuke said: "That's right. When Luanbu and I were walking, they also said that if they couldn't find the leader, they would wait there for you to go back, lest you can't find your way."

Although Edgar Allan Poe has no feelings for these students, he is still a responsible detective—how can a detective not have the sense of responsibility to save others!So Araki Ryosuke's words made his originally calm heart anxious. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Then my... I will leave first, and see you in the game tomorrow."

He pursed his lips, lifted his boots and took a step, trying to walk past Araki Ryosuke, but failed.

Because Ryosuke Araki stood aside like a black and evil force, blocking his route, Poe blinked suspiciously, and the little raccoon Carl in his arms also barked, as confused as his master.

Ranbu showed a sly smile, he glanced at Ryosuke Araki, satisfied that he understood what he meant: "Don't go, I have something to ask you."

"Ah, ah? What is it?" Poe's eyes widened. His gray eyes looked innocent, and he still didn't realize it. "Just ask Luanbu."

Although Edgar Allan Poe was an unprecedented genius in reasoning, he couldn't help being stunned under the current situation.

Araki Ryosuke began to feel his conscience ache, but he still took a step forward without hesitation. Poe didn't expect him to do this, so he took a step back subconsciously, and finally leaned his back against the wall, Araki Ryosuke actually has a wall to beat someone else's day.

And Luanbu was like a big devil, he walked over and said unceremoniously: "Poe, form a team with us."

"..." Poe was stunned, and the little raccoon Carl in his arms took the opportunity to break free and climbed to the top of his head. He came back to his senses, "Ranbu means, let me agree to the combination of American High School and Yokohama High School? ... ...but we have always been associated with the British Clock Tower..."

"Is there something wrong?" Ranpo said naturally, "Of course you have to join forces with the strongest person? Because we will eliminate the clock tower in the first match."

Edgar Allan Poe froze for a moment: "Do you know what the first game is?"

"It's natural, who can't see it." Luanbu didn't care, "We met on the rooftop of Xiongying High School before, where you can see the woods. As a school, it is obviously too vast Well, it's an extension—there's no other possibility except for competition."

"That may not be the first time." Poe showed a pensive expression, "Is there any detail that I have missed?"

Araki Ryosuke kept an embarrassed but polite smile. There was no need for him to intervene in this kind of conversation - and there was no chance, anyway, he couldn't see anything, he was very honest.

Luanpo gave him a few seconds to think, and Edgar Allan Poe was also very strong. He quickly followed Luanpo's thinking, and did not keep the two people present waiting for a long time.

"I know." He said, "Is there any reason to convince me?"

Edgar Allan Poe still has to be responsible for his team, even if it is——

Ranbu pointed at Ryosuke Araki, and said bluntly: "Did you see this man? His name is Ryosuke Araki. He wants to win, and I want him to win too."

Poe blinked and asked, "...so?"

"So——" Ranpo glanced at him, his green eyes were clear and bright, and he said loudly, "So he will win. No matter which game it is, Yokohama High School will win. Master Ranpo never speaks big words, that is It's something that a disgusting adult would do, if he wants to win the Holy Grail, then Ranpo-sama will let him get it."

His voice echoed in the narrow alley, startling the white pigeons parked on the top edge.

Obviously, Poe was shocked, he blinked slowly: "Is this your reason?"

"Yes."

Either lose with the British Clock Tower in the first round, or become teammates with them, Ranbu gave two options, and placed Poe at both ends of the balance.

"..."

After a brief silence, Edgar Allan Poe suddenly laughed in the shadows. He raised his head and said, "Mr. Luanbu is really confident, much better than us."

Ranpo didn't answer his words, but shook his head, looked at Ryosuke Araki, and waited for his response.

"Your answer is?"

"——My generation agreed." Ellen Poe said, "Later, we will come to find Ranbu to discuss countermeasures."

Araki Ryosuke stepped aside.

——A joint team between Yokohama High School and the United States?

Unprecedented, you will be shocked if you want to come to the clock tower in England.

No matter what disputes there are among the top students in the United States, since Poe agrees, there will be no problems.Although Edgar Allan Poe looks shy and shy, he is not as harmless as he looks on the surface. They, a group of people immersed in darkness, should naturally have this intuition of knowing people.

When Edgar Allan Poe was about to reach the entrance of the alley, he suddenly stopped and turned around. Surprisingly, he did not look at Ranbu, but instead looked at Ryosuke Araki, with those gray eyes Staring at his figure: "Oh...Actually, I have been mistaken all this time, Mr. Ranbu is not leading, he was asking for your permission before, and you are the one who has the right to speak."

Before talking randomly, he did take a look at Ryosuke Araki before he started to say such words.

Araki Ryosuke did not answer directly, but said lightly: "Ranpo likes detective games."

So the time for reasoning is left to Ranpo, he can say whatever he wants, there is no need for Araki Ryosuke to interrupt him, whether it is to intimidate the prisoner, or to show wisdom, he can play if he wants to have fun, because in the detective He had the sole privilege of shooting the prisoner behind him, and he alone.

"...Is that so?" Ellen Ramp said, staring at him, "I understand."

"Go, Poe, and wait for your news."

"May I ask a question?" Poe didn't move his footsteps, and he asked without waiting for Ryosuke Araki's answer, "What was the original plan?"

Araki Ryosuke let out an "oh", and he said, "It's not impossible to say, because the situation won't change if you know it."

Edgar Allan Poe: "You are too confident."

He looked back at Edgar Allan Poe: "Probably. I plan to form a team with two other teams, Russia and Heroic. Then, three against two, I will kick you out."

Hearing this, Poe felt a burst of electricity rushing through his body, because Ryosuke Araki's words were so firm without any hesitation.

"How can you be sure that Russia and Xiongying will team up with you?"

Poe does not feel that this issue has crossed the line, because if the alliance is to be temporarily stable, some information sharing is necessary-and it can also serve as a warning.If Ryosuke Araki was smart enough, he should have answered Edgar Allan Poe's question at this time.

Sure enough, Ryosuke Araki said without hesitation: "The Russian team leader Fyodor is very interested in me. He wants me to join a club. If I say that I want to join forces, he will most likely agree, even if he knows I might be lying, but this is a great opportunity."

Not to mention, Sigma seemed a little guilty of him?Although I don't know where this guilt comes from, but it can be used, and he will speak for him.

And Gogol, the clown with five decays—this is a person who longs for freedom. He has stated that he is an extremely normal person, but he only longs for freedom like a bird. Therefore, he is a libertarian criminal. Nakahara also made him angry when he mentioned that he might be Fyodor's subordinate.

If Fyodor is not willing to accept his alliance, Ryosuke Araki will find Gogol and ask him to agree to the alliance-he will definitely do this, but Fyodor will not allow him to do so, he will realize that I am being dominated by the other party, in order to gain freedom, then internal strife is fine.

"Xiongying High School..." Araki Ryosuke smiled, "Don't tell me, Poe, you didn't realize that they are too simple."

They don't need to spend a lot of energy at all. To put it bluntly, if they hook their hands together, Xiongying High School will agree to join forces, especially with Midoriya Izuku and Hong Jiaodong in the middle. They seem to be the core members of Class A?Also, have a crush on him, so that will be a boost.

For him who used to be the young master of Hong Kong gangsters, what he is busy with every day in Hong Kong gangsters is dealing with major organizations, and doing these things is really familiar.

Looking at him, Ellen said: "These are all hypotheses. The students of the British Clock Tower are all magicians, and some of them have a history of summoning heroic spirits to fight."

This sentence made Araki Ryosuke think about something that he hadn't figured out before, that is, how did Poe not panic when Holmes appeared, and even be able to directly call out the wording of Heroic Spirit, and at the same time mention When it comes to proper nouns like the Hall of Valor, it seems that it can be explained.

It turns out that the clock tower here...is it really the magician's clock tower in the Xingyue worldview he thought?

Then the concept of the Holy Grail may be closer to what he thought.

Under Edgar Allan Poe's gaze, Ryosuke Araki laughed, with a look of contempt on his face: "Are you kidding Poe, am I afraid of Heroic Spirits?"

"..." Poe.

What he said was true, there were not a few heroic spirits around him, and if a fight was really going to happen, Ryosuke Araki was obviously not the one to be afraid of.

The little raccoon Carl, who was lying on top of Poe's head, called out and called back his owner's attention. He messed up Poe's fluffy brown hair and covered his sharp gray eyes. Covering it up, Edgar Allan Poe's sharp expression just now disappeared immediately, and he turned back into that shy detective again.

"My brother, then I look forward to fighting with you!" Ellen ramped, his voice sounded a little delicate, "Nice to meet you, Ryosuke Araki."

"I'm also very happy to be able to join forces with you." Araki Ryosuke joked, "But... this is the first time you call me by my full name."

"Because there was no need to remember everything before." Ellen Poe said, he was a little embarrassed, but the words he said showed his built-in cold character, "But... I will remember it now."

He smiled at him shyly, and stared at Ryosuke Araki with the gaze of looking at something wonderful, until Luanbu's body moved and stood in front of Ryosuke Araki. After a while, Edgar Allan Poe Then he turned and walked out of the alley.

After his figure left completely, Ranpo, who had been watching from the sidelines, took Araki Ryosuke's hand and said, "So, Ranpo-sama really gave you enlightenment, right?"

"I just learned that Poe is your friend." Ryosuke Araki said, "Don't worry, the alliance is stable for the time being."

"...Hmph." Luanbu folded his arms and said, "You really like to pretend to be stupid."

Araki Ryosuke: "Is there?"

"There is!"

what!Obviously, he is saving Liangjie's humanity. If he is allowed to use it all over again, when Liangjie wakes up, he will definitely regret it in the future!After all, he is such a character.

Luanbu looked at his side face and puffed up his cheeks.

——Well, anyway, Ranpo-sama's boyfriend really makes Ranpo-sama worry too much!
