Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 190 Repaying a debt of gratitude? Of course, it's about feeding the ghost with one's own body.

"Gaining freedom?"

Upon hearing this, Shirley paused for a moment, then quickly asked, "Is it ready already?"

Gastly said last time that it could free her, but she would have to wait for a while and develop version 3.0 of APTX-4869.

But unexpectedly, the waiting time was so short. Can she really gain true freedom now?

Shirley felt a little uneasy.

“Of course.” Kitahara Natsuyu chuckled. “If you want to leave here now, I can get you out of here, and I can let you walk out of here openly and legitimately.”

He is not the same person he was a while ago.

Using superpowers to alter memories is an easy thing for him, and the same goes for Gin.

Last time, Gin used a bullet to forcefully counter his hypnosis, but this time it won't work.

Because it has been upgraded and strengthened.

However, the members here are only a part of the black organization. He has no way to tamper with those members who are not here, and he is also at risk of being discovered.

But it's not a big problem. At most, we just need to add some more material to Gin's memories. He has faith in Gin's abilities.

“I want to,” Shirley said eagerly, “I want to leave here, I want to leave this cage that has imprisoned me for eighteen years.”

"Gastly Lord, please take me away from here."

If she had a choice, she would rather live a poor life in a tiny apartment of less than ten square meters with her sister and parents than stay in a place where she had no worries about food and drink but needed to research murderous drugs.

"Get ready!" Kitahara Natsuyu said. "Pack your things, and then I can take you out."

However, while Sherry was packing her things, he first had to deal with the members of the organization, including Gin.

He had just scanned the organization's interior; including Gin and Sherry, there were twelve people in total.

Apart from Gin and Sherry, the rest of the people were security personnel here. Vodka, Vermouth, and Tequila also took five security personnel with them on the mission.

Adding Chianti and Cohen, who are not here, the organization has a total of twenty-two people on its side.

In other words, he needs to modify the memories of twenty people, but not only those twenty, but also the memories of others.

For example, Kenzo Masuyama.

He remembered that in the original story, when Conan and Sherry stormed into the Beika Hotel, it was Masuyama Kenzo, also known as Pisco, who discovered that Ai Haibara was actually Shiho Miyano, and then kidnapped her and took her to a wine cellar.

Fortunately, Ai had a bad cold that day and later developed a fever. In addition, there was some baijiu in the wine cellar, which helped her escape a disaster with Conan's help.

Even so, her body was covered in wounds, all inflicted by Gin with a pistol.

Because of this incident, Gin slapped his own arm to counteract the anesthetic effect of the injection.

Therefore, Piske's memory must be erased.

As for the memories of other people in the organization, there is currently no way to erase or modify them, because they are not in Japan.

"Yes, Lord Gastly!"

Sherry did not refute Gastly's words. After Gastly caused Gin and his group a great loss in Tokyo Bay and did not dare to retaliate, it had already proven its strength.

So she does whatever Gastly tells her to do, without any hesitation.

When the sky falls, the tall ones hold it up, and Gastly is one of those tall ones!
"Okay." Gastly nodded: "You pack your things first, I'm going to go chat with Gin, catch up, and help you get rid of any future troubles."

"Yes."

Sherry nodded, and then she saw Gastly's figure gradually vaporize and disappear into her office.

Immediately afterwards, she returned to her room, began packing her clothes, and had a big smile on her face.

"Sister, I'll be free soon. Then I can go see you and live a normal life."

Gastly's appearance was a ray of light in her despair, and she was willing to believe whatever Gastly said.

Moreover, Gastly certainly has the credentials to convince her of everything it says.

In an office.

Gin was sitting at his desk, processing the documents on it.

There are approval fees, workers' compensation, and annual leave applications.
Despite being a terrorist organization at its core, they operate as a legitimate company with top-tier benefits and perks even in Tokyo.

So as long as you don't betray the organization and survive the mission, you can enjoy these benefits, including a pension.

Pisco, on the other hand, was caught by Conan just as he was about to retire, and was eventually killed by Gin to silence him.

He's the unlucky one.

He's almost retired, yet he's still risking his life for the organization, even capturing Ai Haibara and provoking the Grim Reaper.

If you don't fail, who will?

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew the documents on the table, and Gin felt a chill on his body, and even the temperature in the room seemed to drop. Without saying a word, he grabbed the black pistol next to him, raised his hand, and pointed it at his front.

He wasn't alarmed at all when he saw the creature in front of him clearly.

They've been rivals for a long time; last time, I even stole a considerable amount of gold from his vault.

Since Gastly can do it once, it can do it a second time, or even a third time.

So Gin was already mentally prepared and wasn't panicked.

The most important reason why he wasn't panicked was that this guy really wasn't going to kill anyone; he was only after money, which calmed him down a bit.

But he couldn't possibly entrust his life entirely to a ghost; that would be irresponsible of him.

However, he had people researching some things specifically targeting ghosts, and those things are still under development.

After all, ghosts are legendary creatures, and it's impossible to target them just like that.

Before developing the weapon, he also went to temples and shrines to ask for some amulets and blessings for protection and safety, hoping they would be useful.

Of course, he didn't believe in these things before, but he started to believe after encountering Gastly, though only to a limited extent; he believed if it was useful, and otherwise...
They robbed them of all their money for sesame oil.

Why do you want me to pay for something that doesn't even work?
Don't even think about it!
Of course, Kitahara Natsuhiro was unaware of this, and even if he had, he wouldn't have cared.

Gastly isn't a ghost in the traditional sense, so it's completely useless.

So Gin's money was wasted.

"Yo, Sashiburidara, Mr. Gin." Kitahara Natsumi floated in front of Gin and greeted him earnestly.

Although he wasn't particularly flustered inside, Mr. Gin's face was still very unpleasant as he coldly said, "Hmph."

"I don't want to see you. What do you want from me?"

"Rob my vault? Or are you planning to continue toying with us?!"

After his encounter with Gastly, he realized that Gastly was teasing and playing tricks on them, manipulating them at will.

Just like Jerry teasing Tom.

Comparing Jerry to Gastly isn't quite appropriate, but the meaning is the same.

"Hehehe, I was a bit bored today, so I came to catch up with you."

"What? Aren't you going to welcome an old friend?"

Kitahara Natsuyu burst into laughter, and began to spin around with the magic of love, circling around Gin.

But after spinning around a few times, Gin couldn't take it anymore and felt dizzy, so he quickly covered his mouth and nose.

This time, Kitahara Natsuhiro did not tighten the gas on his body.

Gin isn't Sherry, nor is he a great beauty, so there's no need for him to show her any mercy.

"If you have something to say, then say it. If not, then please leave!" Gin said in a muffled voice, covering his mouth and nose.

He even added a "please" to his words, becoming much more polite. After all, Gin is just arrogant, not stupid.

Even if the gun that claims equality for all is ineffective, he will still choose his methods based on the situation.

Gastly is at the top of the food chain; it's not something you can mess with, at least not for now.

But once he finds a way, he will definitely make a good mess of Gastly.

Kitahara Natsuyu glanced at Gin and said with a grin, "I'm here today just to take something that belongs to me."

"I don't think you'll mind!"

"Your stuff?" Gin paused, a smile appearing on his face. "There's no gold in the vault that you're looking for."

He'd learned his lesson; he wouldn't be foolish enough to leave the gold in the base again—what if it got stolen again?

So after Gastly stole the gold last time, he stopped storing it here and hid it somewhere else to make sure Gastly wouldn't find out.

"Gold?" Kitahara Natsuyu tilted his head, a strange smile on his face. "No, what I want isn't gold. There's something far more valuable than gold here."

He can get a lot of gold with just one trip to the bank; it's not particularly valuable. Besides, robbing Gin is much more interesting.

As for something even more valuable, it's Sherry, of course.

Sherry was his personal property, and today he was going to take his personal property away. Moreover, the Black Organization had taken his personal property for so many years, so he had to collect some interest.

"Not gold?!"

Upon hearing this, Gin's expression changed, as if he had thought of something. He immediately stood up, his face icy cold: "Sherry cannot be taken away by you!"

He could let Gastly take anything else, but not Sherry. She was an important asset to the organization, and he couldn't give the organization an explanation if Gastly took her away like that.

Kitahara Natsuyu sneered, "Sherry is not your property. She is mine now."

"Besides, do you think you have the ability to stop me?"

How dare a mere Gin player stop him?
This is truly like a mantis trying to stop a chariot; it's utterly overestimating their own strength!
"Or are you planning to detonate the bombs buried in the base and take us both down with you?" Kitahara Natsuyu laughed loudly.

He knew very well that there were many explosives buried beneath the base. Gin had buried them as a precaution, with the purpose of killing any intruders or detonating them during a base relocation, burning the entire base to the ground and leaving no trace.

This bomb, which is highly effective for ordinary people, is of little use to Kitahara Natsuhiro.

And since Gin himself is still here, he would never detonate the explosives buried beneath this base.

He's a man who values ​​his life highly, so he wouldn't take his own life with him.

Hearing this, Gin's expression darkened even further.

This is indeed one of his trump cards, but it's useless against Gastly. They tried it with grenades in Tokyo Bay last time, and it had no effect at all. Gastly is still alive and well.

Kitahara Natsuhiro's smile deepened as he looked at Gin's expression.

Hey, if you're unhappy, I'm happy; if you can't kill me, then I'm even happier.

Hey, it's all about having fun and making a fuss!
"Alright, it's getting late. Let's end this chat here. I have more important things to do."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kitahara Natsuyu's eyes widened, and pale blue light emanated from his eye sockets, filling the entire room.

Upon hearing this, Gin's expression changed. He pressed his pistol against his arm, preparing to use the pain of self-harm to suppress Gastly's hypnosis, just like he had done in Tokyo Bay last time.

However, Gin did not expect that the Gastly that appeared this time was an upgraded Gastly, with its strength reaching a new level.

This hypnosis was much stronger than the last one, so Gin was not given any time to react.

The moment he came into contact with the hypnotic light waves, his eyes became vacant, his arms drooped involuntarily, and his consciousness sank. Finally, he was locked in a small dark room, and he lay back like a dead dog, slumped in a chair, and fell into a deep sleep.

"Come on, let me modify your memories, and let me see where you put the gold!" Kitahara Natsuyu rubbed his hands together, beginning to manipulate Gin's memories.

However, he wasn't particularly curious about Gin's memories; he was only curious about where the gold was hidden.

As for the other memories in his mind, he had no intention of prying into them.

Because it's unnecessary, and he has another event to attend!

Subsequently, Kitahara Natsuyu forcefully inserted his mental power into Gin's mind and began to alter his memories of Sherry and Miyano Akemi.

Since it's a modification, let's also modify Gin's memories of Miyano Akemi!
Since we've already done it, one more Miyano Akemi won't make a difference.

He planned to blur Gin's memories of Sherry and Akemi Miyano and replace them with two other women who had already died, so that Sherry and Akemi Miyano could live in this world with their current appearances.

All you need to do is change the name.

He quite likes the name Ai Haibara, so let's use that!
However, this little sorrow is a great sorrow!
As for Akemi Miyano, she can continue to use the name Masami Hirota. Akemi Miyano is Akemi Miyano, and Masami Hirota is Masami Hirota; there is no conflict.

Then, another story is created in Gin's memory, in which Sherry and Akemi Miyano have already died.

Moreover, they were blown up and their bodies were never found.

He also gave Gin an order: to use his authority to modify the information about Sherry and Akemi Miyano in the organization's database.

Although many people in the organization know what Sherry and Miyano Akemi looked like from childhood to adulthood, and have even seen what the two sisters looked like when they were young.

But Sherry is already eighteen years old, and Akemi Miyano is already in her twenties. People's memories also become blurred over time, and when they really need them, they feel that the memories in their minds are not accurate enough, and they need to retrieve information from the database.

When they retrieved the data, the Sherry and Akemi Miyano in the database were no longer the real them, but two other unrelated women.

Besides, since Gin has already confirmed that the woman is dead, the organization probably wouldn't waste its resources investigating her again!
After all, Gin is the confidant of the Black Organization's boss!

Only five minutes had passed after Kitahara Natsuhiro meticulously crafted this incident.

After receiving the command, Gin opened his eyes, his hands unconsciously resting on the keyboard. He accessed the organization's database from the computer in his office and began modifying the information about Sherry and Akemi Miyano, revising all their records from childhood to adulthood.

It has to be said that Gin is truly a genius; he can do everything, from flying planes and making bombs to even hacking.

No wonder she turned her long blonde hair white; it was just too curly.

While Gin was modifying the data, Kitahara Natsuhiro used the phone in Gin's room to call Sherry's room.

"Gin, what's the matter?"

Sherry's voice was somewhat cold, a stark contrast to her demeanor when she spoke with Kitahara Natsuhiro.

“It’s me, Sherry,” Kitahara Natsuhiro said.

Hearing that familiar voice, Sherry was overjoyed: "Gastance-sama?!"

"It's me. I've already taken care of Gin. How's it going on your end?"

Kitahara Natsuyu glanced at the progress bar on the computer; it was already 20%. Soon, all the modifications would be completed without anyone noticing.

"Gastly Lord, I've finished cleaning up."

Shirley looked at the rows and rows of designer handbags and said softly.

Compared to these designer bags, she still values ​​freedom more, and she prefers to earn money with her own hands before buying these bags.

“In that case, come directly to Gin’s office and bring all your belongings!” Kitahara Natsuhiro said.

"Yes!"

Sherry nodded, hung up the phone, and then dragged her suitcase to Gin's room without looking back.

When she arrived at Gin's room, she saw the busy Gin typing on the keyboard. Curious, she went closer and was shocked when she saw the program on the computer.

"These are my and my sister's files?!"

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu said, "That's right. I controlled Gin and made him modify the information about you in the organization's database. Once the modification is complete, you can live in the sunlight."

Upon hearing this, Shirley burst into tears and immediately knelt down on one knee.

"I will repay Lord Gastly's kindness in the future, I will do anything you ask!" Sherry said firmly.

"Don't worry, you'll pay for it someday," Kitahara Natsumi said with a smile.
