"There are too many things to deal with."

  Everyone got busy at the same time.

  "Cut~ okay." Ranbu had no choice but to find someone else, "Is anyone outside?"

  Dun: "Mr. Dazai seems to have gone out this afternoon?"

  "Dazai?" Ranbu frowned and thought for a while, "Well! Even Dazai can't refuse a detective's request!"

  "Hello? Dazai, can you help me to the dessert shop when you come back..."

  "Da—baa!" Dazai guessed his request before Ranpo finished speaking, and denied it: "I am assisting the police in handling the case, and the snack shops will be closed when I get off work~"

  "A case?"

  "That's right, it's "The Case of a Woman Falling from a Building" that has been on the news recently——"

  A woman fell from a building in the middle of the night and her body was found in the early morning. Inferences about whether the woman committed suicide, accident or homicide have been aroused on the Internet.


  "What? Does such a simple case take so long?" Luanbu pouted.

  Dazai on the other end of the phone didn't say a word.

  "..." After receiving Dazai's silent hint, Luanbu compromised, "Okay, let me, a famous detective, find out who the murderer is!"

  "If you catch the murderer, remember to buy me some snacks when you come back, Dazai."

  "I will handle it!"

  "Then, 【Super Reasoning】—Activate!"

  "Eh? Sudden activation of [Super Reasoning]!?" Dun exclaimed.

  "Mr. Kunikida, get ready!"

  "coming!"

  On the other side of the phone, there was a flutter of chickens and dogs jumping——

  Whenever Edogawa Ranpo activates "supernatural powers", in order to satisfy Ranpo's children's psychology, everyone in the detective agency goes all out to create artificial "special effects", including but not limited to: turning Ranpo's hat, Tearing up the cloak of Luanbu, and the people next to him frantically fanning Luanbu... In short, it is necessary to create a cool scene where the ability is activated.

  Ten seconds later, the excited voice of Luanbu mixed with the gasps of artificial special effects sounded: "I know! The murderer is—"

  “Kawashima Minai!”

  Dazai turned sideways silently.

  "Sir, do you have any other questions?" The girl with "Kawashima Mina" printed on the nameplate on her chest smiled sweetly at him.

  "Hey, hey! Dazai! Desserts! Don't forget to bring me something thick on the way back..."

  "Well, hang up first." Dazai hung up the phone.
