However, the influence of these events continues to spread. Once the whole world knows about the existence of the mutants and Sesshomaru's 'heroic deeds,' the resulting spacetime energy will gradually be absorbed by Somoko.

However, according to Sophon's calculations, this kind of effect, which is not instantaneous, will not involve much spacetime energy.

Now, through the actions of the bandaged man, Gendagawa has a new way to obtain spacetime energy, which is to change those cases!

Of course, change doesn't mean making those damned guys stop dying, but rather finding a different way to make them disappear.

For example, in the case of the bandaged man, Chikako Ikeda killed an innocent genius girl because of her own selfish desires. One can imagine that with the talent of this Miss Atsuko, she would have achieved great things if she hadn't died.

There are also many other utterly despicable guys, such as the three drug dealers on Moonshadow Island: Hideo Kawashima, Tatsuji Kuroiwa, and Masato Shimizu, as well as Ken Nishimoto.

They were all heinous drug traffickers who used Keiji Aso's identity as a pianist to smuggle drugs. When the other party refused to continue their collusion, they were killed to silence them, and the entire family was burned alive!

There's also the wolf from Beika who stalks women all day and tries to kill them if they don't comply, and the man from Torakura Daisuke who dresses up as a vampire all day and causes the destruction of families in order to get the woman he likes.

These guys deserve to die!

However, killing them when one's abilities are limited would turn kind people who could have lived good lives into people stained with blood, making it difficult for them to escape punishment and ultimately costing them their lives.

At this moment, Genda River finally understood that this was his chance!

I will kill those they cannot kill, and I will handle those cases they cannot solve. I will execute first and report later, with the special permission of the emperor!

No, it is I who will punish these damned people on behalf of Heaven!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel excited, and immediately told Tomoko his idea, though of course, he phrased it differently...

Tomoko quickly understood Genda River's meaning.

"Host, you mean that as long as we find people who have a good reason to kill, and help them get rid of their enemies, we can obtain objective spacetime energy, right?"

Genda confirmed, "That's right. Just like that guy from earlier, he clearly intended to kill someone. He came here today to scout the place, but our actions just now unexpectedly shook his resolve and made him abandon his plan to kill."

"So I had this idea. We can find such people through some methods, and then replace them to get rid of those damned people, such as that woman named Chikako Ikeda. This way, we can not only eradicate evildoers, but also obtain a considerable amount of spacetime energy!"

Zhizi immediately became excited: "If this method works, then the efficiency of acquiring spacetime energy can be increased again!"

This is the most important thing to her.

She didn't care about killing people, nor did she care who she killed. In this world, the only person Tomoko cared about was Genda River; she didn't care about anyone else.

"Then let's put it into action when we leave tomorrow."

................................................

In a high-end apartment in Dongdu.

"Who are you? How do you know these things?" Chikako Ikeda, dressed smartly, looked at the mysterious person in front of her with fear in her eyes.

The mysterious man smiled faintly: "Who I am is not important, but if you don't write a confession and repent for your sins, then I will let you see your brains spilling onto Earth 2.5. That would be quite a sight."

Chikako Ikeda trembled all over, but despite her fear of death, she finished writing the confession and held it in her hands:

"I have confessed my sins. I haven't slept well for years. I'm trembling all over. I've paid the price. Please don't tell anyone, or I'm finished!"

The mysterious man sighed, extended his gloved hand, and accepted the letter of confession.

"Hehe, taking advantage of a good friend's trust to steal someone else's work, what a fine writer he is!"

A wave of shame mixed with fear washed over Chikako Ikeda, nearly driving her insane.

"I've already written a letter of repentance, shouldn't you let me go?"

The mysterious man chuckled softly, then suddenly slapped her, causing all the muscles in her body to spasm and convulse, rendering her unable to move.

Then the mysterious man grabbed her arms and controlled her body from behind, leading her step by step toward the balcony...

Chapter 201 Soothing the Soul

"Ding Ding Ding-"

A sudden ringing of the bell woke Takahashi Ryoichi from his nightmare, his face covered in sweat. He looked like a beaten-up stray dog, disheveled and pitiful.

"Whoohoo-"

Ever since Dunzi died, he has had this kind of nightmare frequently, and yesterday's nightmare was much more elaborate, especially the fist that pierced through the tree, which haunted him like a nightmare.

Just like Stephen Chow and Uncle Da, who were hiding outside the wall and watching Master Duan Shuiliu punch through the wall, they were filled with intense fear and helplessness.

"Hey--"

He took a deep breath, walked to the table, opened the small medicine box, took out a few pills, put them in his mouth, took a sip of water, and swallowed the pills.

The day before yesterday, he was splashed with water and felt nervous and scared, which completely broke his madness and plunged him into the shadow of fear and dread.

Having shed his fear, he is now nothing more than a pathetic creature, trapped in hatred and terror, a spineless mollusk whose life has lost its direction.

"Dunzi, I still want to avenge you, and I still want to kill that bitch, but my heart seems to be trapped in endless anxiety and fear. I feel like I can no longer carry out the plan. I'm such a useless piece of trash!"

I turned on the TV, and the morning news was playing.

The once desolate room now seemed to come alive.

Many people turn on the TV not because they enjoy watching it, but because they need to create some noise in the room to make themselves feel less lonely.

I went into the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. Looking at my chubby face in the mirror, I felt utterly defeated, with bloodshot eyes, as if I had aged several years in an instant.

He took a big gulp of water and started rinsing his mouth. Suddenly, he heard something, and his whole body froze. He dropped the cup and threw it on the ground, rushing into the living room without caramelizing his face.

"Up-and-coming young writer Chikako Ikeda died last night after jumping from her home. Preliminary police investigation has ruled out homicide. Furthermore, a letter of repentance was found in Ikeda's apartment, detailing how she plagiarized a university classmate's work, leading to her suicide. Police have launched an investigation into this letter..."

Ryoichi Takahashi's lips moved, his face showing an incredulous expression.

How could such a thing happen? That despicable woman actually committed suicide out of remorse?

How could that be? That woman is selfish and only cares about herself. She would never write a confession, and she would never commit suicide!

But now, this has indeed happened; the woman fell from a high-rise building and was disfigured beyond recognition.

The scene in the video, with its bloody and mangled flesh, was blurred, but you could still feel the brutality and the sheer pleasure in it!

At this moment, Ryoichi Takahashi's shock quickly turned into joy, and he even burst into laughter, choking on the toothpaste foam and coughing, but he still laughed until tears streamed down his face.

"Hahaha, Chikako Ikeda, you bitch, you're finally dead, finally dead! That's great, that's really great! Atsuko, you can finally rest in peace!"

He was 100% certain that the woman had not committed suicide.

Suicide is not in her nature. Such a selfish person would never commit suicide. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, she would never choose death. But now she is dead. There is only one possibility: she had to die!

"Although I don't know what happened, who it was, or what methods they used, it doesn't matter. As long as that bitch is dead, that's enough!"

More importantly, this matter had absolutely nothing to do with him. He neither planned nor carried it out. He didn't have to pay any price for it and yet he fulfilled his long-cherished wish. It was truly a blessing that came too suddenly.

Half an hour later, a phone call came in. It was his classmate Hiroki Kakutani calling, who was shocked to hear the news of Chikako Ikeda's death. Ryoichi Takahashi also pretended to be very shocked.

The two talked for a while, but came to no avail.

Within half a day, two other former members of the film research club, Ayako Suzuki and Masaru Ota, called.

In the following days, the police also came to inquire about the situation. So-called friends of Chikako Ikeda were all subjects of the investigation. After all, it was a death case, and even if it was temporarily determined to be suicide, the investigation would continue for some time.

He passed without incident, because it was simple: he had absolutely no time to commit the crime and had plenty of alibis proving that he was not at the scene when the crime occurred.

Therefore, this case could only be treated as a suicide in the end.

In the room of Genda River in Beika Town, Genda River, who was practicing breathing techniques while sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes.

Just now, a considerable amount of spacetime energy was successfully received by the Sophon.

The system repair progress of Zhizi is now close to 14%, and it is getting closer to the critical 20% mark!

For the entire system, every 10% recovery is a major milestone, resulting in a significant boost to the system's computing power, scanning range, and inference capabilities.

More importantly, he found a great way to level up and gain experience: watching DVDs—or rather, helping those damn guys get ahead of him!

With his extraordinary strength, he would never leave any trace when dealing with ordinary people.

There's no need to go through access control to enter, so there's no risk of being photographed. Even if you are photographed, it doesn't matter; Tomoko will take care of it.

Moreover, he also possesses the art of disguise, allowing him to completely disguise himself as someone entirely unrelated to the others.

Moreover, killing someone is no more difficult for him than crushing a chicken. With his powerful 623 strength, he can give these damned people some unique ways to die.

Just like this time when they killed Chikako Ikeda.

First, the opponent's muscles were instantly relaxed, as if their whole body was cramping, completely losing their ability to resist. Then, like a shadow puppet, the opponent was controlled to walk onto the high platform and then jumped off in a normal jumping posture.

After all, if someone throws someone down, the manner of death will be different from suicide.

Moreover, he also found no signs of struggle on the other person's body, no second person's footprints in the room, and no strange noises.

Everything was in perfect harmony, everything was logical and natural.

So even though the police had some suspicions, the only explanation in the end was suicide.

In fact, not only the police, but also Kogoro Mouri and Conan were 'accidentally' involved in this matter. Speaking of which, Inspector Megure has to roll his eyes again. It seems like the two of them are at every crime scene. They're practically grim reapers!

Then look at Genda, he's a very hard-working guy, but he never has this problem.

And this time, even with the two Grim Reapers joining forces, the final result was still the same. Although Conan was full of doubts and felt that Chikako Ikeda definitely did not commit suicide.

However, the suspects had no time or opportunity to commit the murder, which plunged him into deep self-doubt.
