Another World Bookstore in Yokohama

In the bookstore, Lin Yuan sat at the front desk and read the book quietly, but he was not the only one, there was also Edogawa Ranpo sitting beside him.

By the way, why is Edogawa Ranpo in the bookstore during working hours in the morning instead of the Armed Detective Agency?this is a problem.

Edogawa Rampo said you don't ask. (forcing the real face)

"Haha~" The sleepy boy yawned, "This book is so boring——"

Hearing this, Lin Yuan glanced at the book in the man's hand.

I can't quite tell what the title of the book is, but I can generally tell that it is a collection of essays.

"Then read another book? If you haven't been exposed to prose, it will be difficult to read comfortably at first, especially for some children's minds." The boss said lightly.

"Hey? What is a child's heart, Ranpo-sama is already 28 years old!" Edogawa Ranpo said ferociously, patting his breastplate.

Who would have thought that this person would reply with such a sentence:

"I'm only 28 years old." Lin Yuan said lightly.

Edogawa's random steps suddenly became angry, and his mouth was raised high.

"We're different. For ordinary people here, Mr. Ranbu is already very big, he's already an adult!"

"I know."

"Hey, it's too perfunctory."

Seeing the accusing expression on the boy's face, Lin Yu'an couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Then, before the other party looked over with wide eyes angrily, he changed the subject.

"The sales this time are very good."

"The online bookstore?"

"Well, sort of. That's what you call it?"

"What Dazai said, everything he said is contagious."

Lin Yuan smiled: "It's pretty accurate." That noun.

"You think so." Edogawa Ranpo muttered.

"Is there anything wrong?"

"No... By the way, can you disclose the specific amount of your income?" Edogawa Ranpo hinted with blinking eyes.

"Why do you ask this?" Lin Yuan smiled.

He is quite sensitive about money.

Edogawa Ranbu didn't notice it, and was still shouting cheerfully: "I'm just curious, how much does a bookstore as big as yours make in a day?"

"You really want to know?"

"Uh-huh!"

"...Usually about 400-600 million yen per day, last night because of the opening of online sales, the income has increased a lot, about [-] billion, and today it is [-] billion." The implied expression has no effect, Lin Yuan said with a sigh.

"..."

The wordless here belongs to the bewildered Edogawa Ranpo.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yu'an looked at the boy with bead eyes strangely.

Edogawa took a breath in Luanbu and calmed down, "Is this a number, is it real?"

The voice trembled.

Forgive him for this baby who has zero social experience and only has those simple concepts about money.

"Of course, the bookstore has a large stock of books, and the advertisements are placed all over the world. The consumption level of different places is different. Most of the audiences of books are places with high economic development levels."

"Sometimes a hit book can already make a lot of money, and there are countless classic books from other worlds here." Lin Yuan propped his face, his eyes wandering around.

"Also, the Japanese yen is counted here. If it is US dollars, it will be five or six billion US dollars, which is not as good as the first month box office of a (very) blockbuster movie here."

"Now those first-wave purchase audiences are estimated to have started to help publicize. It is estimated that the collection will gradually increase greatly, and then it will slowly decrease and finally gradually stabilize."

Edogawa Ranpo listened quietly, and didn't say until the boss finished, "Is it exaggerating?"

"No. According to the discussions in the book club and other social media, there are only four works that are highly discussed at present, "Pride and Prejudice", "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", "To Kill a Mockingbird", "Gone with the Wind" ". According to the number of discussions and exchanges, the number of each book purchased is nearly 600 million copies, and it does not rule out the case of bulk orders from other bookstores. Other books are also bought in total. "

Lin Yuan explained little by little.

Port Mafia.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke led a person directly to the interrogation room in the basement.

Push open the door, throw people in and skillfully tie their hands and feet with iron chains.

Then put your arms around your chest and lean against the opposite wall.

Interrogation is not his job, he just needs to wait for someone to take over.

"Den"

"Den"

"Den"

It was the sound of heels hitting the concrete floor.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke followed the voice, and a red-haired woman in a scarlet kimono came out from a bright height.

At the same time, the woman also noticed Ryunosuke Akutagawa standing not far away, and she yelled in surprise.

"Oh." Koyo Ozaki walked over without haste, "Akutagawa-kun?"

"Accident, I didn't expect you to be the one who took on this task."

"It's just my job."

"But this kind of arrest work only needs to be done by those middle-level members, at most they are black lizards. It shouldn't be worthwhile to ask you, the captain, to do it yourself?" Ozaki Momiji joked.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke replied solemnly: "No, maybe this is the case for other jobs I took on next, but this one is not."

"There are a lot of suspicious things about this person, his unusual obedience when he was caught (Atsushi Nakajima didn't come in handy at all), the weird steps he took when he committed the crime, and the drooping eyelids that didn't move when I caught him The eyes looking around, and, now, the sudden panic."

At the end, Akutagawa Ryunosuke looked at the man who was shackled behind him. He was obviously very quiet just now, but now he was struggling desperately like a mad dog.After that, it seemed that he couldn't break free, so he tried to bang his head against the wall hard.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke blocked the man's head with a cloth strip derived from "Rashomon".

"Looking at it this way, it's hard not to think it's weird or not." Ozaki Koyo said in a flat voice, "But it's quite amazing to be able to detect him before he has such an attack, Akutagawa-kun."

"——No wonder he was suddenly appointed as a cadre by the boss."

And there is a high probability that after Mr. Mori abdicates, he will be the next leader.

"I didn't notice it during the arrest process, but I saw it from the documents I got when I received the task before."

"That mission description is a bit subtle." Ryunosuke Akutagawa simply expressed his feelings.

Ozaki Koyo narrowed his eyes, "Among the middle and high-level personnel of the port mafia, there are undercover agents."

Those who issue tasks can only be middle-level and above.

——"By the way," Akutagawa Ryunosuke felt a little belatedly, he blinked and looked at the woman, "Imperially appointed cadre, what is it?"

Ozaki Momiji: ?

"Excuse me, is it something related to my subordinate?" Akutagawa Ryunosuke scratched his head.

His consciousness was too drowsy before, and he forgot everything that happened in the chief's office, and when he woke up later, he found that he was already on the bed in his bedroom.

I felt that my sister should have brought me back, so I went to Yin to ask what happened, but the girl only got up to warm the food for him, and then went back to the room without any response.

I don't know what happened.

It made him think that he had done something unreasonable, and he was terrified when he stayed at home, and then he hurried out to the port mafia to find some idle tasks to do.

silver:......

As for the simplified explanation Akutagawa Ryunosuke said, Ozaki Momiji:  …

Suffocating, that is, very suffocating.

(The reason for the choking is that she knows the situation of Akutagawa's house)

"Hey?"

In the Armed Detective Agency, Atsushi Nakajima sat across from Osamu Dazai in a bewildered manner, listening to the news of the explosion that the other party uttered all at once, unable to calm down for a while.

"Atsu-kun, are you alright?" Osamu Dazai walked around the sluggish Nakajima Atsuo a few times, then stopped behind him and patted the boy's head lightly.

"piaji"

A switch is flipped.

"Hey?????"

"You said Akutagawa wants to be a cadre?? Dazai, Mr. Dazai, are you kidding me?" Nakajima Atsushi stood up abruptly and said incoherently.

"No, Atsushi-kun, you have to trust my information~" Dazai Osamu ate a lollipop with a smile, "And it's not just the cadres, based on what I heard from Mr. Mori, I can be sure Guess-"

"Akutagawa-kun is the young master behind the scenes of the port mafia. Once Mori-san steps down or has an accident, he will be the No. 1 candidate to take over the leadership."

"I don't know how far Akutagawa-kun has grown recently, so Mr. Mori suddenly made such a decision."

Atsushi Nakajima froze again, his eyes blinking.

"Little Lord?"

"The leader? The leader of the port mafia??" Atsushi Nakajima muttered in a low voice, even in a daze.

I always felt that the distance between him and Akutagawa was widened in that sentence.

At this time, other people from the detective agency came in one after another, and the last one just heard Dazai Osamu's last words, but Yosano Akiko, who was the first to walk in, only listened to one more sentence.

"You said Akutagawa is the leader of the port mafia?" Akiko Yosano said in surprise.

"Seriously?" Her understanding of Akutagawa Ryunosuke was still the same as before, no matter how many times they met after that, she just couldn't help thinking of that scene.

First impressions really matter.

"It's the hidden young master. Didn't Dazai say it?" Edogawa Ranpo followed in, "Or the acting leader behind the scenes. If something happens to Mori Ogai, let Akutagawa Ryunosuke act as the agent." act."

"That's the reason!" Osamu Dazai gave a wink.

But when he saw what the man opposite was eating, Edogawa Ranpo paused for a moment.

"Ah, my lollipop! Dazai!" He shouted angrily, and then ran after Dazai trying to punch him with his small fist.

"Ranpo-sama wants to be an adult, help Kunikida-kun—"

Kunikida Doppo:  …

When did he become this person's shield? , but in any case, persuasion is the first priority.

and so.

"when!"

With one fist down, Osamu Dazai fell to the ground.

"Mr. Ranpo, please don't be angry." Then he said respectfully to Edogawa Ranpo.

"Hmph~" Edogawa hugged his chest in disorder and laughed.

...

"Oh," Osamu Dazai sighed, standing up while supporting the table.

Then he looked at Kunikida Doppo and said bitterly, "It's really too much, Kunikida-kun—"

The man's gaze drifts.

"Actually, I've also heard about it." Edogawa Ranpo changed the subject, "That Akutagawa Ryunosuke is going to be promoted to a cadre.

"The boss told me."

boss!

Osamu Dazai's eyes lit up and he was about to interrupt,

"To be honest, there is no need to worry," Edogawa Ranpo continued, looking at Atsushi Nakajima who raised his head, "Even if the leader of the port mafia is replaced by Akutagawa in the future, it will only be more beneficial to us."

"Besides, the boss gave me a guarantee."

The author has something to say: the data the boss said must be exaggerated, so let’s take it as a private setting (cover your face)

After all, Akutagawa's appointment as a cadre was carefully considered by Mr. Mori, and the boss assured him that he was not in charge of Akutagawa, but cast a heart-cleaning spell on Akutagawa, so that Akutagawa would be pulled over when he was in extreme situations.

And Akutagawa generally doesn't do extreme showmanship like Mr. Mori.
