Chapter 44

"Becoming a Fool" Miyako Eri did not participate in this battle between Port Mafia and the Armed Detective Agency. Even though Atsushi Nakajima had thought about asking her and Gojo Satoru for help, he was disrupted by Edogawa. Bu stopped.

"Don't bring in irrelevant people, newcomers."

The world's number one detective pushed up his glasses, his expression so serious that his usual childishness could not be seen.

"This is a war between the Port Mafia and the Armed Detective Agency. Any way to bring other forces into the game will be considered cheating. By then, it won't just be the Port Mafia that greets us."

The other party disrupted it first. With all the information, Edogawa Ranpo's forehead was covered with cold sweat. The opponent calculated with intention and without intention. It would be very troublesome to break the situation now, but it was not completely impossible.

As long as one of the leaders of both sides dies, the war will end early.

But it's impossible, the knot is here.

It is impossible for the Armed Detective Agency to let Fukuzawa Yukichi die, and the same is true for Port Mafia.

But the time given to both parties is only 48 hours. Within these 48 hours, they have to find the person with supernatural powers who cursed them. This time is simply not enough.

The intelligence of the port mafia is also likely to be disrupted, and what is ultimately found is nothing more than a cover-up.

Leaders on both sides are equally aware of this.

When Miyako Eri was sitting in the coffee shop, she happened to see a young man with red hair and a black suit passing by outside the window. Following him, there were many big men also wearing black suits with serious expressions on their faces.

Those eyes that were clearer than the sky looked at him for a second, and then quickly looked away.

"Tsk."

Nakahara Chuya didn't miss the gaze of the red-eyed girl in the cafe.

Having experienced the battle at the "Polluted Source", he probably knew Miyako Eri's abilities.

Originally, I was a little worried about whether the other party would come in and intervene in this battle, but depending on the situation, the other party probably wouldn't come in.

Although there is a sense of security, there is also an inexplicable unpleasantness.

It was probably because the blond man sitting next to her had such an obvious look on his face that he was having fun.

Their port mafia was watched as a monkey show.

Nakahara Chuya spat, placing this hatred on Dazai Osamu who was not even present.

Osamu Dazai, who was lying on the hospital bed and began to calm down as a weak and sick beauty, had no idea that he had taken a blame that did not belong to him, and he still reluctantly reached out to touch his mobile phone in the hope of taking control of the situation.

But it was too painful to do it, so he had to smile and ask the beautiful and gentle nurse for help.

"Hello, Atsushi-kun, how is the situation now?"

It was really not easy for Nakajima Atsushi to receive a call from Dazai Osamu at this time.

He responded breathlessly, "Has Mr. Dazai completed the operation? Ah, no, we are discussing the plan to attack Port Mafia..."

"About this, I have a little suggestion..."

Miyako Eri did not After being idle for a long time, she soon received a call from Atsushi Nakajima. Listening to the nervous and dry voice of the little tiger on the other end of the phone, she looked surprised.

"...Atsushi, are you sure?"

"...Although I don't know if it will work or not, this is the method Mr. Dazai told me. As of now, I can only try it." Nakajima Atsushi on the other end of the phone Licking his lips, his voice was filled with unconfidence.

"Mr. Dazai's plan...should work."

"..."

I really don't know how you were brainwashed by Dazai Osamu.

Miyako Eri rolled her eyes, agreed to Nakajima Atsushi's request, hung up the phone, pondered for a few seconds, and took the initiative to call Gojo Satoru.

The other end picked up in seconds.

"Hello~ Eri-chan, have you changed your mind?"

"Do you want to enjoy the delicate taste of edamame in Sendai with your teacher~"

Gojo Satoru's voice sounded very happy, and he was a little too happy to think about it.

"Can you come back?"

Miyako Eri did not answer and conveyed Atsushi Nakajima's request.

"Well... although the store owner is quite enthusiastic, since it is Eri-chan's request, the teacher will still endure the pain~"

Gojo Satoru paused on the other end of the phone, and then readily agreed to Miyako Eri's request. ask.

"Is it troublesome?" Miyako Eri didn't miss Gojo Satoru's pause, "If it's troublesome, forget it."

"How should I put it..."

Gojo Satoru was holding the phone at the moment and looking at the person sitting next to him with a bright smile. The Miyagi Prefectural Police officer who was staring at him eagerly in front of him did not sound nervous at all. "There was just a little misunderstanding with the police gentlemen here."

That's good, because the carelessness was calculated.

After hearing this, Miyako Eri didn't ask any more questions, "Then let's solve the teacher's own problems first."

He hung up the phone.

She was not surprised that Gojo Satoru was plotted. Considering that the plan to pit the Port Mafia and the Armed Detective Agency against each other went smoothly, Gojo Satoru must be excluded as a variable, even if the other party knew that Gojo Satoru was temporarily leaving Yokohama. He will definitely try his best to keep Gojo Satoru there for a while and not be able to come back.

Miyako Eri just confirmed how urgent and rough Fyodor's plan was, and... how big his help was.

It was not easy to create such a misunderstanding in a short period of time that caused Gojo Satoru to be detained by the local prefectural police. It was not without a few brushes that Fyodor was able to stir things up in Neon.

"I can only rely on myself now."

She hung up the phone, looked at Gilgamesh looming next to her, and sighed.

"Hey, I said I would go there early..."

Gojo Satoru listened to the busy tone in his ears, and the relatively relaxed expression on his face soon fell silent. He murmured softly, and then raised his head to look at Miyagi in front of him. The county police became very cold.

"It's rare for Eri-chan to make a request to me,"

"It would make me very unhappy if this opportunity is wasted."

- Yokohama -

Edogawa Ranpo originally wanted to let Miyako Eri avoid Although Dazai Osamu's suggestion was not too problematic,

he frowned and reviewed Dazai Osamu's plan, but he didn't find many flaws.

"It's not impossible if you can avoid that man's eyeliner, but are you sure?"

Edogawa Ranpo, who was wearing glasses, looked much more serious, a bit more mature for his age.

"If Eri-chan enters the scene as a third party, it will make the situation even more confusing."

"Well, Eri-chan will make the situation unbalanced no matter if she sides with either side. In this case, let her enter as a third party." , Wouldn't it be better to muddy the situation so that the other party would not dare to act rashly?" Dazai Osamu covered his wound and walked out of the hospital step by step, with cold sweat on his forehead.

He put his hand on Miyako Eri's shoulder naturally, and still had the energy to flirt with the nurse taking care of him.

"You are still very vital today~"

"That's true, but I want to ask, why do I have to enter?"

Miyako Eri's natural attitude is towards the Armed Detective Agency because of Atsushi Nakajima, but this time It doesn't mean that she will be willing to intervene in the battle between human forces for Nakajima Atsushi.

Previously, the "combination" forces got involved because of a visitor from the outside world. There was no reason for the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia to need her to participate in the exhibition.

"But isn't Eri-chan going to settle a score with the 'Majin'?"

Dazai Osamu chuckled, "I didn't say that Eri-chan would be involved in the war between us and Port Mafia, but Fyodor is the culprit. Isn't it Eri-chan's goal?"

"While the other party is watching the state of both of us, it is time to find the hiding place of the devil. This is Eri-chan's mission."

He smiled and tapped Miyako E. inside the shoulders.

"The president wants to save, Mr. Mori wants the shark, but the devil will never let him go."

"When our two forces are fighting, in order to get first-hand information, Fyodor will not leave here for too long. Far away, he needs a stable hiding place. This is the right time for Eri-chan to look for mice. "

"Also, I tried to use everything I can,"

whether it's the special agent department or the military. Osamu Dazai mobilized all his relations with the police without any reservations.

He even planned to use it directly on Gilgamesh.

Miyako Eri rejected this request before him,

"If Gil doesn't participate, I'll be enough on my own."

The white-haired girl didn't regard Gilgamesh as a usable fighting force at all.

After knocking her head, Miyako Eri looked at Atsushi Nakajima, her expression complicated for a moment.

"I'll deal with that little mouse, you owe me a favor."

The bright red eyes turned to Osamu Dazai, the girl's eyes were stern.

"...I understand."

Dazai Osamu's pupils shrank, the smile at the corners of his mouth stiffened, and he answered in a low voice.

According to the plan, the Armed Detective Agency broke into the building of Port Mafia head-on and snatched the leader of the other party for the sake of its own president.

Miyako Eri tied up her long hair and hid it under a peaked cap, then put on Gojo Satoru's same style sunglasses and disappeared into the crowd.

The petite girl began to cover her tracks, and the person who was following and monitoring her immediately discovered her.

But when they planned to report the news of Miyako Eri's disappearance to the "Majin", they suddenly found that the other party suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Please be quiet!"

the girl whispered, deeply inserting the anesthesia needle provided by Yosano Akiko into the other person's body.

"Don't cause trouble at this time."

She was being stared at all the time, and she felt quite annoyed.

Fyodor soon discovered that the informant monitoring Miyako Eri had lost contact.

Although he was not surprised, he was still a little disappointed.

Of course he expected Miyako Eri to enter, but he didn't expect Dazai Osamu to be so impatient and plan to cheat so soon.

"The result is still so boring...it still doesn't surprise me..."

He was a little disappointed.

Gojo Satoru was trapped in Sendai, and even flying over would take a certain amount of time. Even if Miyako Eri acted alone, he would not be able to make any big waves.

If his guess is not wrong...Miyako Eri's special ability should only work on visitors from outside the world.

Putting down his headphones and closing the newspaper, Fyodor stood up and planned to find a temporary base.

It would be too naive to think of finding him through the military police or the Special Agents Division.

He might be able to turn the two sides into a roundabout intelligence house, the "Rat of the Dead House."

"...Oh?!"

But before he walked out of the coffee shop, he saw a familiar person standing at the door.

Although he only met her once through the crowd when he assassinated Mori Ogai, Fyodor had already deeply imprinted Miyako Eri's appearance on his mind.

The conspicuous white hair was suppressed under the black peaked cap, and the bright red eyes were hidden behind sunglasses, but Fyodor could still feel the other person's gaze.

Just like when we first met.

His eyes were still so calm, steady, and without any emotion.

Even if she comes to settle a score with him.

"If I hadn't known that your eyes were very special, I might have thought you were blind."

Now that he had been found, Fyodor was not nervous. He was even in the mood to complain to Miyako Eri.

"Ah, you're not the first person to say that about me."

Miyako Eri took the initiative to open the door and walked into the coffee shop.

"I'm really sorry for my paralyzed face."

"...Can I ask how you found me?"

Fyodor has always been very confident in his hiding skills, so he doesn't know where the flaw will be revealed and he will be captured by the palace. Furi caught it.

"I can only say... this world doesn't like you very much."

Miyako Eri answered very idealistically. Unlike Osamu Dazai, who tried his best to use technological capabilities, she relied on metaphysics to find people.

He just held a map of Yokohama and asked Nakajima Atsushi to intuitively click on a place on the map with his eyes closed, and Miyako Eri followed it.

"Your color is very special and eye-catching."

Nakajima Atsushi only gave a rough range. Miyako Eri really "saw" Fyodor's eyes that could see through everything.

After meeting the "Majin" at the assassination site of Mori Ogai, Miyako Eri memorized his appearance.

"It's special in your eyes. I don't know if it's a compliment or a curse."

Hearing Miyako Eri's answer, Fyodor smiled bitterly.

He didn't want to become special in Miyako Eri's eyes at all.

That meant some reason he didn't want to know.

"I can only say that... you are not very lucky?"

Miyako Eri stretched out her hand to her side, and the golden spirit flowed, forming a gate.

She reached out and took out a short sword from behind the door.

"Uh...huh?"

Seeing that what she took out from Gilgamesh's "King's Treasure House" was the armed dagger she and the wise king and others used during their adventures, Miyako Eri's mouth twitched, and she glanced at the covered dagger. Gilgamesh looked at him with a snickering face and made up his mind to settle the score later.

"Since I met you first, are you ready to wake up?"

She certainly didn't pay lip service to her revenge on Fyodor, nor did she plan to capture him and hand him over to the police.

"Instigating Shibusawa Tatsuhiko to awaken a dangerous person who could almost destroy the world, are you ready to be retaliated by the world?"

As the agent, Miyako Eri certainly has the right to execute the "devil".
