Shut up and let me be Precure

"That might disappoint you." Alberto shook his head. "Have you ever seen Sherlock Holmes? It's different from the great detective Holmes in the novel. I've told you before. In a sense, I This kind of detective does the same kind of work as your kind of housekeeper."

In his opinion, it is very common for Narumi Shokichi to yearn for the profession of detective. The Japanese in this era really like this kind of low-key but flamboyant style.

Most people like pretentious things, which is a natural thing.

The well-known "Detective Conan" and "Kindaichi Case Book" are both detective works that appeared in the late 90s.Before that, such as the late 70s, the Japanese recognized the profession of "detective" mainly through Conan Doyle's "Sherlock Holmes" by Conan Doyle, who promoted early detective literature, and the golden age of detective novels during World War I and World War II. Authors of the era, such as Agatha Christie's "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Tragedy on the Nile" are widely circulated works.

Although the founder of western detective novels is generally recognized as the American writer Edgar Allan Poe in the 19th century.

Maybe it's because there are very few people who can talk to him about this kind of topic. Narumi Shokichi also became interested, and his tone became a little more intimate, "I have read "Sherlock Holmes", but I don't really like this kind of puzzle solving. Works like that. Has Mr. Ai seen Chandler's "The Long Sleep"?"

"I think a detective like 'Philip Marlowe' deserves more respect than a detective like Sherlock Holmes who is sought after by the upper class."

"Philip Marlowe..." Albert Luan suddenly said, and there was a slight change in the eyes of the young man in front of him, "I know this, so you like the 'tough guy detective', which is really impressive. Refreshing."

No wonder he thought so, the full name of Chandler mentioned by Shoyoshi Narumi is "Raymond Chandler". The master of detective novels in the history of literature and one of the greatest names in the history of American novels. He is called "the poet laureate of crime novels" by the western literary circle. He has improved the literary quality of detective novels with the style of "tough guy school". It is highly praised by writers such as Haruki, Eliot, and Camus.

After the First World War, the world-wide economic depression hit the United States deeply. Countless workers were unemployed, living in poverty, corrupt officials, and social unrest.

Against this social background, some excellent detective novel writers tried to reflect this social reality, and most of their works were written with a spiritual core of criticizing current events and black satire, which quickly gained considerable response.Raymond Chandler is the most influential of these writers, and his works have been put on the screen many times and spread overseas.

In the Showa period, post-war Japan was greatly influenced by the United States. In this environment, the Japanese quickly came into contact with this unique "anti-traditional detective novel" detective novel.

Different from ordinary detective novels, which focus on intellectual contests between readers and authors and solving puzzles in a maze, this kind of works called "tough guy detective novels" mainly describe difficult environments and fighting scenes. The unique narrative method and character description method, to a certain extent, pay more attention to reflecting the social reality, and at the same time, it also has American-style individual heroism, and has enough elements to be loved...

What Alberto didn't expect was that this seemingly calm young man was actually a lover of tough guys in his heart. At first, he thought Narumi Shokichi was wearing a normal skirt, and he thought he would be more serious. I like Sherlock Holmes a little, he is really a real person.

"Look carefully, this Narumi-san from Master House is quite strong, it seems that he doesn't have much exercise..."

Thinking of this, Alberto laughed playfully, and joked, "Then, Mr. Tough Guy Detective, if you can stay here this time, maybe you will need your help in the future, please give me your advice."

"Mr. Ai is serious." Narumi Shokichi shook his head, seeing the place in front of him getting familiar, he stopped talking, and pointed to a building with a nameplate of "Putian" in front of them, which looked pretty good It is a Japanese-style house from some years ago. "The house in front is the house that I told you before. Now the mother-in-law of Putian should not have a rest. Please wait a moment. Let me call the mother-in-law and tell her what the two of you want to rent. ..."

"Wait! Look there!"

Albertlut, who noticed something, suddenly interrupted Narumi Shokichi, and pointed to a corner of the yard ahead. The frowning Narumi Shokichi looked in the direction he pointed, but saw the low wall of the small courtyard ahead. There was a black figure carrying something like a bag on his back and jumped down nimbly.

Maybe they heard Albert's shout, they just turned around and glanced at their place, then ran towards the path behind the small courtyard.

Probably because he was too young, Narumi Shokichi's originally calm expression suddenly changed, "Okay, there is a thief! Putian mother-in-law!"

It's just that he was about to rush towards the direction of the small courtyard when Alberto stopped him with his hand.Narumi Shokichi's anxious eyes met Albert Lut's still quite calm eyes, but he said quickly, "Phyllis is a doctor, let's go to the yard to see if Grandma Putian is injured, you go Chase that little thief, leave it to us."

Hearing this, Narumi Shokichi immediately calmed down.

"Then Mr. Albert, I'll leave it to you and Miss Phyllis here."

He nodded vigorously towards Albert, and without further delay, he immediately opened his legs and chased in the direction where the thief disappeared like the wind.

……

……

pS: The name of Philip in W was named after "Philip Marlowe" by Shoyoshi Narumi.

In Japan during this period, except for some old-fashioned buildings, you can refer to the house of Nobita in Doraemon for the appearance of the house.

Chapter 5 Detective Stories of Fengdu ([-])

Looking at the figure of the young man running away, Albert pushed the brim of the white jazz hat on his head, his eyes were quite appreciative, "He is kind-hearted, full of responsibility, calm but passionate, and has high mobility. Mr. Hai is really good... People who like tough guy detectives, will they work hard in that direction?"

But now it seems that he is not mature enough.

"Well...he is indeed a good boy."

Phyllis, who had been eating and eating and didn't say much along the way, wiped her hands, stuffed half of a dorayaki that she took out from somewhere back into her portable space, and stretched, "The old lady inside didn't Injured, just a little frightened, let me go and have a look."

"Go, go." Albert took out a handkerchief and wiped the girl's mouth, put the handkerchief back into the pocket of the suit, pinched the top of the hat and adjusted the position of the hat, "I'll go and see the situation over there, He's still a little too impulsive, it's rare to meet someone who suits his taste, and it's hard for me to see him get hurt or something."

Phyllis ruthlessly pointed out someone's deepest thoughts, and complained, "Actually, you want to see how he dealt with that thief, right?"

"Isn't this very good? It can also be regarded as a way to deepen our understanding of Mr. Wanshiwu, who we may still have contacts with in the future."

There are no mobile phones these days, and the only ones that can be used to call the police are landline phones in residents' homes and phone booths on the street.The mobile phone Phyllis took out to check the time before made a special camouflage, but even without camouflage, it is difficult for people in this era to recognize this high-tech product with too many futuristic colors. Playing stand-alone mobile games and checking the time are basically useless.

Alberto shook his head, and walked slowly, "When you get to that Putian mother-in-law's house, use her phone to call the police, I'll go first."

Walking to the yard and pushing open the unlocked door, Phyllis waved her hand, "Go, go. Keep an eye on our client. It will be very troublesome to find such a pleasing local to lead the way. Be careful."

"Received~" Alberto gestured, and walked slowly towards the place where Narumi Shokichi disappeared.

the other side.

With his heart beating violently, Shoyoshi Narumi straddled his long legs tightly behind the thief who fled with a burden on his back.With a height of 1.8 meters, his legs are long enough. Even though he has not received professional training, he usually exercises a lot and his sports performance is also very good in school. Although he was a step slower at the beginning, he did not lose sight of this thief.

And the thief probably had a burden on his back, even though he was looking desperately at the small alleys and other places to flee, the distance between him and Narumi Shokichi not only did not expand, but kept shrinking.Soon, the young man in black blocked the thief who had stolen in the alley between the two houses with a serious expression. In front of him was a pile of trash cans, but the thief ran away in a hurry. In a dead end.

Seeing that he was blocked from the rear, the thief dressed in black, with his face still imitating the gangsters of the Edo period who covered half of his face with a turban, simply gritted his teeth and put down the big man behind him. burden.Turning around, Narumi Shokichi also stopped in a timely manner, frowning, "Who are you? How is the situation of Putian mother-in-law?"

Without answering his question, the thief punched Narumi Shokichi in the chest amidst the heavy landing of the heavy baggage.The young man dodged nimbly, avoiding the thief's uppercut, without even thinking about it, he raised his left foot and kicked the guy in the stomach!

The thief's body suddenly seemed to have been severely injured, and he flew upside down, and fell on the large black plastic bags piled up in the trash can, whimpering in pain.

Narumi Shoyoshi walked forward without changing his expression. He didn't feel that there was any problem because he had just beaten someone. The thief was found stealing and was beaten when he resisted. Is there a problem?Not at all-people in the Showa era were always so aggressive, and the police would not stand on the side of the thief, so what he did was completely in line with the background of the times and taken for granted.

Covering his abdomen with one hand, the thief, who never expected that the power gap between himself and the opponent was so large, showed half of his face full of pain, begging for mercy to the young man who kicked him over in front of him, "I'm sorry , please forgive me, I will return all the stolen things... I didn't touch the old woman, she was just scared when she saw me go through the cabinet, as long as I returned all the things, I didn't do anything Bad thing, isn't it?!"

"Save this kind of thing and talk to the police."

Narumi Shokichi was completely unmoved, seeing the thief lying in the garbage dump and struggling to stand up, he was sure that he could block this guy here, and all that was left was to wait for the police to come and handcuff him away.He walked to the front of the bag left by the thief, checked the contents inside, and found that it was full of crumpled banknotes, and some silver bracelets and the like, all of which looked quite old.

"What's the wrong thing to do, to steal the money of an old man like Putian Granny who is not a good family..."

Frowning became even more severe, Narumi Shokichi who was talking to himself turned around and looked in the direction of the thief, the words in his mouth suddenly froze.Not far away from him, the thief who was kicked to the ground by his kick, lying like a dead shrimp clutching his stomach and unable to stand up did not know when he took out a small knife from behind, showing an extremely vicious twist expression, slammed into his face!

"I was careless! Was it the knife that I took out from the hand hidden behind me after being kicked down by me? It was blocked by a garbage bag, so I didn't notice it..."

Shocked, Narumi Shokichi stepped back subconsciously, and at the same time stretched out his arms to protect the front with his fastest speed, but this movement was still a bit slower, and the appearance of the throwing knife in his eyes became more and more clear , it seems that it will be inserted into his eyes in the next moment——

A white shadow that was slightly familiar to him suddenly entered his line of sight.

The white jazz hat swirled and flew out obliquely from behind, and hit the flying knife flying towards him with great precision. When it was pierced, it also took the flying knife out of the original track, and happened to land on the flying knife towards him. Taking a step back, he fell down on top of Narumi Shokichi, who fell to the ground.

The coolness of the blade was transmitted to the brain along the scalp, Narumi Shokichi, who survived the catastrophe, had no time to take off the hat on his head, turned his head to look, and the figure of Albert who walked into the alley with a smile caught his eyes.

"Mr. Narumi, you are really suitable for wearing this kind of hat."

"It's that tough guy feeling."

For no reason, seeing Aberut's appearance, Narumi Shokichi let out a big stone in his heart, heaved a long sigh of relief, and felt extremely relaxed.

Taking off the white hat with a big hole pierced by the knife, the young man in a black skirt covered in dust shook his head and stood up, pulled out the knife and squeezed it vigorously in the palm of his hand, while the other hand held the hood of the jazz hat. With the top of the hat, a wry smile appeared on his rigid face.

Chapter 6 Detective Stories of Fengdu ([-])

"Aisan, I showed you a joke."

Looking at the sharp knife piercing the brim of the white jazz hat in his hand, Narumi Shokichi sighed and threw the knife on the ground, "Don't make fun of me... Thank you for saving my life this time, I don't know how to thank you You are fine."

While speaking, he had already walked in front of the thief who had just thrown a knife at him, pulled off the kerchief on his head, grabbed his collar and pulled him up from the garbage bag with a knee Collide.

Before the thief could utter any harsh words, the youthful face that the thief showed was twisted into one piece due to the severe pain in his abdomen.Immediately afterwards, Narumi Shokichi cut his arms backwards, crushed him to the ground, and tied his hands tightly with the face towel that was pulled from his face, making up for his previous carelessness.

It's just that his movements are quite proficient. It seems that he either has proven hands-on experience, or he has rehearsed the specific links countless times in his mind.

After finishing all this, Narumi Shokichi finally relaxed completely, wiped the sweat from his brow with his dusty sleeve, walked to Albert Lut's side, bowed vigorously, "Anyway, thank you very much."

Bowing is a very common etiquette in Japan, but this close to ninety-degree bow can also show the sincerity of the young people's hearts.Alberto accepted his gratitude lightly, just looked at the hat with a hole in his hand, and sighed slightly, "My luck has never been very good, and I always get into trouble easily. This time, it might be because of this reason that this kind of thing happened...and the hat is also broken."

Counting the hat given to Morishima Hodaka before, if he gets a new one, it will have to be the No. [-] hat.

Narumi Shokichi who straightened up also felt a little embarrassed. He was not very familiar with him just now, but he broke his own things in order to save him. This made Narumi Shokichi, who is not good at owed favors, feel quite embarrassed... But there is really no good way.

Albert Lut is not a person who sticks to small details, he glanced at the thief lying on the ground in the posture of dog eating shit, and actively changed the subject to help him ease the embarrassment, "My Phyllis should have already called the police, continue to waste time here It's meaningless, take this guy to Putian mother-in-law's house, and save some time."

After all, he happily picked up the thief from the ground, imitating the policeman's posture of catching the thief he learned when he was watching anime, and pressed the opponent's shoulders to prevent him from getting away, as if he had found a toy. The other party bent over...and it fell into his hands. The thief had no hope of escaping.

"Yeah." Narumi Shokichi responded, patted the dust off his body, bent down to pick up the knife that was left on the ground and put it into the thief's bag, holding the whole bag in his hand, looking at the The thief's eyes were filled with disgust, "This guy is such a scum, he actually stole from Putian Granny."

Pressing down on the thief and returning the same way in the direction the two came from, Alberto asked curiously, "Narumi, are you familiar with the Putian mother-in-law you plan to bring us to meet? Didn't you say that you are not a local?"

The thief who was firmly pressed forward staggered forward while yelling and cursing like a broken can, "You better let me go! Otherwise, you have to be careful when I come out!"

"Yeah Kamasi (very annoying)!"

Seeing that he was disgusting, Albert, who was so annoying, simply stretched out his hand and removed his chin very skillfully, which made Narumi Shokichi stunned for a long time.Just as Albert was surprised at why he was so proficient in beating and kidnapping people, he was also surprised at the "professional means" of this "guest" whom he had known not long ago... Is this a detective?

Do I want to learn two-handed grasping in the future?

When he came back to his senses, Narumi Shokichi shook his head to suppress the messy thoughts in his heart, and replied, "Grandma Putian is an acquaintance of my father, and she took care of me when I was young. I used to live here for a while , Later, I went back to my hometown for other reasons, and I went to school there until now. I can’t say that I don’t know anything about this place, but after so many years, the situation here is different from when I knew it. little change..."

He also just graduated from university, so he doesn't have much experience in dealing with others.After his parents divorced, he moved back to his hometown with his mother to live together. He had a good life in his hometown, but he didn't expect to receive the news of his father's death and the will that he left his master house to himself. .

After discussing with his mother, he decided to stay here in Fengdu and continue to run the Wanshiwu left by his father.It just so happens that he has a childhood sweetheart friend here. After a little calculation, life will not be difficult... And he also thinks that a man of his age should start a career on his own, even if it is a job in the house of everything. It's also a work that he himself is worth paying for.

Albert Lut was his first guest.

"Putian mother-in-law has been living alone since her husband passed away, and now she plans to rent out the old house because her son who lives elsewhere needs money to get married. The mother-in-law is very nice and the house is kept very clean. It's very convenient for you and Miss Phyllis to live together, Aisan, and your mother-in-law won't make things difficult for you on the rent issue, if there is any trouble in this regard, I will coordinate with her."

After such an incident, the distance between the two of them became much closer, and Narumi Shokichi also felt that Alberto had made him feel closer.Owing to this favor and reciprocating, he couldn't treat Albert with the overly polite manner at the beginning, and his words showed a little more sincerity.

Having said that, he remembered that Albert Lute's hat was still in his hand, and his expression became awkward again, "Oh, sorry, this hat..."

Alberto blinked and sighed, "It should have been thrown away in the trash can before. I still have a black one. If this one breaks, it will break."

Narumi Shokichi's expression became a little hesitant. After a while, he suddenly said, "Aisan, can I buy this hat from you?"

"what?"

Alberto stopped in his tracks and let out an "ah", and said in surprise, "You want this hat? Isn't it broken?"

"It saved my life. I think this hat might become my amulet in the future, so I want to buy it from you." The young man's expression was quite sincere, "Please."

"Let's just sell it." Alberto refused, and before Narumi Shokichi showed disappointment, he said:

"However, I can give it to you."

Chapter 7 Detective Story of Fengdu (End)

"Shokichi Narumi, what an interesting person."

Human beings who have an unwavering and unwavering heart and cherish every emotion they have are worth looking at differently no matter what world they are in.Watching the joys and sorrows, watching the passion, watching the flashing moments of heroes and human nature in the darkest hour is the greatest joy of Albertlut's life now, so he will naturally treat anyone who makes him feel "has the potential to become a hero" "People pay attention.

This young man who seriously wanted to buy the hat in his hand had only been in touch for a short time, so it was naturally impossible for him to draw a conclusion as if he had read a script.There are many people in this world who have shining points, but "heroes" are very rare. Today's Narumi Shokichi is only to the extent that Alberto finds it "interesting".

However, this does not prevent Alberto from being friends with him. No matter what time it is, making friends is a kind of good thing.

The collision between will and will will produce the most beautiful fireworks in the world. It is good to be friends fighting side by side, even if you have to kill each other because of conflicting wills, that is even more wonderful. In short... Alberto doesn’t care It is "no loss" in any case, and more often it can "earn blood", so why not do it?

"I'll give it to you if you like it." Albertlut said with a smile, and stopped observing the young man's expression, pressed the hapless thief in his hand and continued to move forward, leaving Narumi Shokichi who had a slightly surprised expression on the ground. behind.However, based on his understanding of human beings, after such an emergency, if it is placed in the game, there should be some hints of changes in favorability such as [Shokichi Narumi's favorability +15].

What happens next depends on how "The Choice of Steins;Gate" will be.

His expression changed several times, and finally turned into a young man with a somewhat helpless smile hanging on his lips, yearning for a "tough guy detective". He shook his head and looked at the white man who was pierced by the brim of the hat in his hand, and the tear almost cut off the brim of the hat. Jazz hat, thinking:

"This Mister Albert is really an interesting person."

The thought that was almost the same as Albert Lut's evaluation of him came to the bottom of his heart, and Narumi Shokichi still didn't put the hat that had just completed the transfer of ownership on his head.There is no other reason, but it is because his dirty skirt and white top hat don't match well.

In terms of matching, this kind of hat still looks good with a suit or coat like Albert.

He thought, maybe he should learn to wear a white suit in the future.

Narumi Shokichi, who had slowed down unknowingly while carrying the bag of stolen goods, suddenly came back to his senses, seeing Alberto pressing the thief further and further away, he quickly shook his head to calm his mind down.Today, he was almost headshot by a throwing knife by accident. For him, this kind of exciting experience is extremely rare, and he probably wouldn't be thinking like this in normal times.

The young man whose expression had returned to his former calmness and stability put his burden behind his back, and trotted forward to catch up.

……

……

The siren gradually faded away, bringing the captured thief along.

In the house of Grandma Putian, a group of people sat in the living room. The old lady poured everyone a cup of green tea very enthusiastically. She was very energetic. At a glance, she knew that it was Phyllis who helped her heal when she was treating her. I got rid of some old problems in my body, and now I am in a very good state.
