The Great Detective of Gensokyo, but surrounded by Shura Field!

"Why don't we have a boy and a girl? That way the house will be more lively."

"……what?"

"……Eh?"

The two fell into silence at the same time.

Looking at Chu Bai's confused expression, Alice finally woke up from her dream.

Her face immediately turned red, and she hurriedly changed the subject:

"No, nothing... just my own monologue..."

"By the way, Xiaobai, what's the matter with you asking me out today?"

We are finally getting to the point.

Chu Bai put down the teacup, his eyes flashing with excitement:

"This time, I'd like to ask for your help to discuss the relevant matters of setting up a detective agency."

"Detective Agency?"

Alice immediately understood:

"You mean..."

"That's right!"

Chu Bai said happily:

"After 114 chapters of preparation, I finally saved enough money to start my own detective agency!"

Chapter 116: Spreading dog food in public! Rumors of a haunted house!

"congratulations!"

Alice clapped in agreement.

Detective and reasoning seem to have always been Chu Bai's interests.

Being able to turn your hobby into a job and earn a steady income is indeed something to be happy about.

"By the way, have you thought of a name for your detective agency?"

Alice reminded:

"It seems that only a name that stands out can attract business?"

Chu Bai immediately patted his chest:

"Don't worry, I've already thought about this."

"The name of the new store is Yiben Wanli Detective Agency. It's easy to pronounce and understand..."

“This is too commonplace!”

Alice nearly choked on her tea:

"This name is definitely inappropriate, reject it!"

"Eh……"

Chu Bai made another suggestion:

"Then it's called...Gazing Into the Abyss Detective Agency?"

"This one is quite good, but its meaning is quite unclear. Rejected!"

"So...Hot Hot Hot Detective Agency?"

"Is this some kind of barbecue restaurant? Dismiss!"

"Holy Light Detective Agency?"

"Too much of a middle school student, rejected!"

"Little Bird Turn Turn Detective Agency?"

“…This is not as good as the divine light just now.”

"........."

Many proposals were rejected in succession.

Alice said helplessly:

"Don't bring a two-dimensional name into reality. You should choose a more normal name."

Chu Bai pondered for a long time, his head turning rapidly.

Finally, an idea struck him and he clapped his hands:

"How about this, we can just take one character from each of our names and use that as the name of the new store."

"Eh? Okay."

Of course Alice wouldn't refuse, and she was even a little happy.

Then I heard Chu Bai say:

"Then let's take the "Xiao" from Xiao Ai and the "Bai" from Chu Bai, and put them together to call it "Xiao Bai Detective Agency"!"

"...?"

Alice twitched the corners of her mouth and subconsciously wanted to say something.

But in the end, he suppressed the urge to complain and sighed softly:

"Forget it, just be happy."

"And compared to the previous names, this one is at least normal..."

Thus, the name of Xiaobai Detective Agency was decided.

……

……

Then it’s time to buy a house.

The location of the new house is of course still Renjianzhili. After all, this place will be used as the base of the detective agency, so it must be a place with a lot of traffic.

So the two of them walked together towards the shop where the house was for sale.

It was morning and there were still many people on the street.

The scene of Chu Bai and Alice walking side by side, talking and laughing, immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Suddenly, many bachelors were completely heartbroken.

After all, with Alice's appearance, there are quite a lot of people who have a crush on her.

But she, who had always been aloof, was now chatting and laughing with a man, and her behavior seemed quite intimate.

It's obvious that she has fallen in love with him, and they might even be a real couple!

The male villagers all cried and hung their heads in tears.

Chu Bai raised his eyebrows in confusion:

"What's wrong with them? Why do these people cry wherever we go?"

Alice shook her head slightly:

"I don't know, maybe we bumped into them accidentally?"

"Then let's get closer and not block others from crossing the road."

Chu Bai took the initiative to reach out and pull Alice towards him.

Alice immediately moved closer obediently, a happy smile on her face.

Suddenly the villagers around me cried even louder...

Damn, this is clearly a show of affection!

Could you please take care of the single guys and not show affection in public?

……

……

Ignore the inexplicable passers-by.

Chu Bai and Alice came to the house sales office.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw someone they knew.

"Hey, Rinnosuke? Why are you here again?"

Chu Bai said in surprise:

"Aren't you working as a financial officer at the Hieda family? Why are you working here again?"

"...I've already said I'm short of money lately."

Rinnosuke sighed helplessly:

"According to the old custom, if you're short on money, you can just go to the Scarlet Devil Mansion and steal some gems."

"But then some idiot took advantage of the situation and stole from the Scarlet Devil Mansion several times. As a result, the head maid has completely tightened security, and now there's absolutely no chance of getting in."

"There's no other way. I can only work a few more jobs to supplement the family income."

Hearing him say this, Chu Bai immediately looked away with a guilty conscience:

"I-I see... Then work harder."

Lin Zhizhu didn't notice anything unusual, he just looked at Alice beside Chu Bai:

"Hey, isn't this the puppeteer from the forest?"

"Are you two together? Are you on a date now?"

"No."

Before Alice could react, Chu Bai immediately clarified the relationship:

"Xiao Ai and I have a pure friendship. Don't look at me with those yellow glasses."

Lin Zhisuke: "..."

Looking at Chu Bai's decisive reply.

Then he looked at Alice's helpless and regretful eyes.

Lin Zhizhu immediately pulled Chu Bai aside and looked at him fiercely:

"Hey, did you do this on purpose?"

"Alice is obviously in love with you, are you trying to keep her hanging and be a scumbag?"

Chu Bai shook his head firmly:

"Impossible, this must be just one of the three great illusions of men."

"Alice is such a beautiful girl with such a good personality, how could she fall in love with me so easily?"

After making sure Alice wasn't looking over here, Chu Bai quietly said to Lin Zhizhu:

"To be honest, I'm actually a little tempted by Alice. After all, I'm not an old monk who can remain calm even if a woman makes a move on me."

"But this kind of thing needs to be done gradually. Even if I really plan to pursue her in the future, I need to take my time and not be too hasty and scare her away."

Lin Zhizhu looked at Chu Bai with empty eyes.

After a long time, he sighed helplessly:

"Okay, I won't get involved in your affairs. Let your love develop however you want."

"Getting back to the point, are you here to buy a house?"

Finally, we get down to business.
