Chapter 22

The information Edogawa Ranpo provided to Miyako Eri was very simple. Combining the information about the port mafia and the information they collected not long ago about the bounty on Nakajima Atsushi himself, they came to the conclusion that Nakajima It is very likely that Atsushi has been arranged to be smuggled to the location of the organization that issued the reward, and by that time it will be difficult to control whether Nakajima Atsushi is dead or alive.

Yokohama is a port city, and the method of transporting Nakashima Atsushi is very simple, which is to depart from the port terminal and go to the distant shore via sea ferry.

If Miyako Eri and Gojo Satoru rushed to the pier now, it would be too late. Judging from this time, the ferry carrying Nakajima Atsushi had already departed.

"Even so, are you still going to find the newcomer?"

Edogawa Ranpo simply deduced Nakajima Atsushi's current location, pushed the hat on his head, and opened a pair of green eyes to look at it seriously. Looking at Miyako Eri, she seemed to be judging something.

"Not necessarily."

Miyako Eri's answer did not surprise him. "Maybe we will open a new map accordingly."

She smiled brightly, "In the end, it still depends on Atsushi's intention."

"He He is my guide, and I tend to follow his own wishes."

"Well, it's up to you."

"The detective doesn't care about that

," Edogawa looked back without interest and turned to the newspaper. , also ignoring the people from the Armed Detective Agency who were still arguing.

He was opposed to whether the Armed Detective Agency should rescue Nakajima Atsushi. Miyako Eri was in charge of Nakajima Atsushi's life and death, so why should their Armed Detective Agency intervene?

Maybe Atsushi Nakajima himself wants to leave this city and travel to a foreign country?

"Let's go."

Miyako Eri waved to Gojo Satoru, her eyes met Dazai Osamu who was watching the argument with a smile. The young man with black curly hair leaned on the bed and nodded towards her with a smile, as if he knew very well. their plans.

"Then, Mr. Gojo and I will go out first. You guys can have a good time here."

Miyako Eri reached out and patted Kunikida Doppo's arm, smiling and making a shooting gesture towards him.

"A bunch of little idiots."

"...Huh? Oh...No, wait, what's going on with you?!"

Kunikida Doppo, who was still debating whether to push away his current tricky job for a newcomer Atsushi Nakajima, Seeing Miyako Eri saying goodbye to him, he didn't react yet. He just responded naturally. Then he heard Miyako Eri's words and realized that something seemed wrong.

Is Miyako Eri's character... so lively?

"Do you think they will take action in the end?"

Gojo Satoru looked much quieter than usual. He asked in a subtle tone after following Miyako Eri out of the Armed Detective Agency.

"Yes."

Miyako Eri did not hesitate at all, "After all, Atsushi-kun is a newcomer who has signed a contract. Whether it is out of companionship or obligation, the Armed Detective Agency has the responsibility to act, and... although Edogawa Jun seems to dislike extra work, but the importance of Atsushi Nakajima should be clear, and together with Dazai-kun...the two of them working together are enough to suppress all objections."

"Well...although. There is nothing wrong with Eri-chan's reasoning, but have you missed the most crucial person?"

Gojo Satoru raised his index finger and pointed behind him with a smile, "After all, there is still a soul figure in the Armed Detective Agency who can make the final decision~"

"Ah, what you are saying is...I really forgot."

Miyako Eri did not deliberately ignore the existence of President Fukuzawa Yukichi, but she was not so kind either when she lost her memory or when she recovered her memory. I had gotten along with this president, so I naturally forgot about his existence.

Even if the opponent has a coercive aura coupled with the sword energy accumulated from years of practicing swordsmanship, it is easy to scare children to tears.

But she is not a child after all, so she will not be scared.

"After you get to the pier, you won't be able to catch up with the ferry that has already departed. Are you going to let the teacher take you to swim to another continent?"

"Rent a speedboat. According to Edogawa-kun's calculations, the speed of the ferry will not be very fast. , if the speedboat is running at full speed, it should be able to catch up with the opponent soon."

Miyako Eri obviously had the answer.

"Eri-chan... although the teacher seems to be quite capable, the teacher doesn't know

how to drive a speedboat yet." "I don't mean to force the teacher to learn new skills, I will drive it."

She said this His expression was quite natural when he spoke, and he never thought of relying on Gojo Satoru.

"..."

Miyako Eri didn't turn her head, so she had no idea how surprised Gojo Satoru next to her was when she heard these natural words.

Gojo Satoru looked at Miyako Eri's back and couldn't help opening his mouth and laughing silently.

Yes, he almost forgot that before Miyako Eri came to this world, she rarely relied on them to act.

He did not forget that Miyako Eri's arm was suddenly broken when she came to the Magic High School for one month. There were no wounds on Inumagi and Panda, but it was Miyako Eri who was so seriously injured.

Obviously, she should be the only one dealing with "bugs" at that time.

"Eri-chan, it's okay to rely on the teacher."

Gojo Satoru followed Miyako Eri with a smile, earning a slightly surprised response from the girl.

"Of course I will not hesitate to squeeze the teacher wherever I can rely on him. After all, the time I will be paired with the teacher will not be very long."

"I will not be stupid enough to bear everything by myself."

Then she won't be exhausted? !

Didn't you also find a few helpers when you went to the Conjuring College?

It's a pity that those helpers are not so reliable for various reasons, but does this mean that she is a workaholic?

"Don't worry, I will definitely make good use of the teacher."

"I will never give the teacher a chance to be lazy. It's better for the teacher to learn less from Dazai-kun."

"Huh?"

I don't know what it is about me that makes Gong Gojo Satoru, who Koeri thought she might hang out with Dazai Osamu, expressed that she was wronged.

No one he hangs out with would go with that self-shark maniac. If he has that time, he might as well go with Edogawa Ranpo to find out what delicious dessert shops are nearby.

After Miyako Eri and Gojo Satoru arrived at the port, they "borrowed" a speedboat from the port mafia in a very polite way. Miyako Eriki lived up to expectations and grabbed the key and drove the speedboat filled with fuel. Rushing out of the port suddenly, there was no time for the port mafia to react.

The big man in black who had been "borrowed" the speedboat was lying on the ground, trying hard to take out his mobile phone from his pocket to contact his boss.

"This is Ino... report, report, just now, the magician and his companions robbed a yacht in the port mafia and went to sea..."

"Stealed the speedboat and went to sea?"

The superiors who heard the report were a little confused. No, according to the relationship between the magician and the port mafia, as long as he opens his mouth, it is difficult for the port mafia to refuse such a request that is not embarrassing...

What are they doing in such a hurry to grab the speedboat? What?

Although I didn't know why the other party was so eager, the superior still reported the news very dutifully.

"...The young man in my family is really too impatient..."

The matter quickly reached Mori Ogai's ears. The middle-aged man with purple eyes quickly understood the ins and outs. There was a bit of surprise in his expression, but he didn't. Thinking that Gojo Satoru and the others would pay so much attention to Nakajima Atsushi...

Could it be that the secrets of the human-tiger boy worth 7 billion are also related to Gojo Satoru and the others?

"Nakaya-kun, I would like to trouble you to bring back our impatient young man first."

"Understood, so about the bounty on the human tiger..."

Nakahara Chuuya knew that Mori Ogai did not have much intention to cooperate with overseas organizations. Yes, after all, if we can grasp the secrets of a boy worth 7 billion, it might be of greater benefit to Port Mafia.

"...Compared to that...it is more important to save the life of our young man. After all, I am also very curious about the secret of the human-tiger boy."

He didn't care about the purpose of overseas organizations that much, but now Since he had such an opportunity, of course he hoped to get the answer from Gojo Satoru.

He had no doubt that his own Akutagawa Ryunosuke would fall into the hands of Gojo Satoru.

The fact is that before Gojo Satoru could take action, Ryunosuke Akutagawa fell to Atsushi Nakajima and Kyoka Izumi who jumped.

Although the girl named "Izumi Kyoka" is a newly trained shark hand by the port mafia, she is not a shark maniac who has been brainwashed and trained since childhood.

She was just a poor girl who lost her parents and was forced to inherit an uncontrollable superpower.

"Yaksha Shirayuki" was originally her mother's superpower, but it was transferred to her after her parents were killed. However, because it is not her own superpower, she cannot control it freely. "Yaksha Shirayuki" will only obey the instructions of her mobile phone. So Ryunosuke Akutagawa took advantage of this and carried out a lot of dark shark activities.

As for Izumi Kyoka herself, no matter how unwilling she is... her talent as a Dark Shark seems to be fully utilized.

She has always picked up training in this area very quickly, so she already has a full record of success in less than half a year since her debut.

Even if she is just a girl who likes cute stuffed animals, desserts, and people she likes just like ordinary people.

She doesn't want Sharkman anymore.

Nakajima Atsushi gave her the courage and opportunity to leave the port mafia.

If it were the famous armed detective agency, she might have a chance to escape from the port mafia.

She didn't want to be a shark anymore.

"Hey, Atsushi, are you okay?"

The ferry that Atsushi Nakajima is on is easy to identify. For example, the ferry that was sending out billowing black smoke was not moving forward, but stayed in the middle of the sea, and there was a vague fire somewhere. ferry.

On the ferry, Atsushi Nakajima’s figure is also quite easy to recognize.

Miyako Eri was sailing the boat, so the one shouting to the ferry was Gojo Satoru, who was sitting on the speedboat doing nothing.

His height determines that his field of vision is wider than Miyako Eri, so he is the one to talk to Nakajima Atsushi.

"Mr. Gojo, and Eri-chan?"

After hearing Gojo Satoru's voice, Nakajima Atsushi propped his head out on the boat pole, and quickly saw the two conspicuous white hairs.

"Coming to pick you up, Eri-chan asked you, do you want to go back, or simply go directly to a foreign country to eliminate the roots?"

Gojo Satoru put his hands on both sides of his mouth to act as a speaker, and asked Atsushi Nakajima, who was confused.

"Eh? Go directly to a foreign country to eliminate the roots?"

He didn't even know who wanted to arrest him and why. Why did Miyako Eri and Gojo Satoru act like they knew better than him? !

"Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. It's very dangerous there. Why don't you get on the boat first?"

Miyako Eri didn't give Nakajima Atsushi time to hesitate and asked him to get on the boat directly.

"I have to stay away from this ferry, otherwise it will probably drag us down the moment it sinks."

"I understand!"

Atsushi Nakajima turned his head and stretched out his hand towards the blue-haired girl.

"Kyoka-chan, get ready, we are leaving-"
