Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

Gu Qiao judged from the other party's "football" that it was more likely that the man was American. She also liked the movie "The Silence of the Lambs" very much. She heard that the other party's pronunciation was very similar to Dr. Hannibal.

"America..." Xing Zhen packed up other things skillfully, "Will it be someone from the 'office'?"

"It may also be from the 'company'. Now Chisong has gone to keep an eye on it personally."

Gushe said with a headache.

In theory and in practice, the CIA deals with foreign countries, and the FBI deals with internal affairs in the United States, but Japan...these two institutions seem to be qualified to intervene.

She had read the original work of Conan and determined that there were at least three undercover agents from the US intelligence agency - she was not sure whether Reina Mizuno's father had been exposed now, and with her current status, she was not qualified to inquire.

The other two, Reina Mizuno was only suspected by Gin after the plot began, and Shuichi Akai was exposed two years ago and one year after the plot... so it is impossible to determine which one it is in terms of time.

In the blink of an eye, Xingzhen packed up several of them and threw them aside: "I understand."

This signaled the end of the conversation, and Gushe hurriedly left, heading towards her single apartment.

It was dusk at this time.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines in front of Gushe's eyes, and there is a thick black shadow under her feet. She breathed a silent sigh of relief and walked forward unhurriedly.

Her left eye flashed slightly. In the sky that was about to fall into night, an eagle flew silently, conveying the more distant scenes to her one by one.

No stalkers…

After temporarily confirming that it was safe, Gu Sheo did not immediately go to the station and take the tram back to Bunkyo District. Instead, she turned at the intersection and walked towards a bookstore.

There are posters posted at the door of the bookstore, and one of them is particularly eye-catching.

——A suicide chamber using ice cubes, the amnesia girl's journey to find her memory, the second volume of "Detective Kyoko" is now on sale!

"..."

Cornsheath fell into silence.

——Such a high-profile and familiar killing method should be the work of a certain player.

……

Sheath is undercover.

She is an undercover agent in the organization. She seems to be loyal and comes here for money, but in fact she is a policeman who has infiltrated the organization with the goal of destroying the organization;

At the same time, she is also the "undercover" among the players.

When other people finish the game, they can wake up in the real world and return to their relatives and friends; but when she finishes the game, she will die completely.

Judging from the results, she is on the opposite side of their side - in order to keep herself alive, she has to sacrifice them and ruin their mission.

This is not difficult. She is not the only one who has the mission. The system has said that there are at least four players in the red and black camp and four different missions. As long as any one of them fails.

But every time this thought crosses her mind, she feels something heavy on her left chest.

…That’s where she once wore the siren she inherited from her father.

Gu Qiao quietly looked at the flamboyant poster in front of her.

Hesitation, self-loathing, unwillingness... and some emotions that she couldn't express or dared to admit were all accumulated in her chest, making her throat dry and unable to say anything.

At this moment, the system pop-up window suddenly popped up.

The ID of the sheath is [Greed], and the corresponding demon is a two-headed crow, one of which is alive and the other is dead.

——Almost reminding Gushen every moment of her ending in reality.

It was from another red side [Jealousy].

[Jealousy:...Do you have time this Saturday afternoon? 】

----

The heroine is pure red, but she is not a complete saint, she also struggles and hesitates.

Chapter 204 Red and Death (Part )

Hey.

This is another red player, whose name in the game is Baijiu months.

On Gushe's first day in the game, he took the initiative to come to her.

Before entering the game, the system said that Gu Jiao had special permissions and showed her the footage of the accident. However, through communication, she was surprised to find that the accident happened at the same time and in a very close location, but the other party entered the game several years in advance.

Baijiu is currently a criminal police officer in the Fourth Investigation Section of the Metropolitan Police Department. He is in the same group as Fangtani Rei, but they have a normal relationship. They can't be considered friends, they can only be considered acquaintances.

During the first exchange, they were both a little wary of each other. Players could not lie to their teammates, but they could remain silent.

However, no matter how careful they were, some basic information was still exchanged - such as names, real-life identities, and tasks on both sides.

[Jealousy: Destroy the organization... Are you an undercover agent? 】

After Baijiu learned of her mission, he immediately guessed her identity.

Gushe hesitated for a moment and did not deny it.

Although Bai Jiu is a college student who has just grown up in reality and is inexplicably reserved in his words and deeds, here he has been a policeman for four years.

Police officers and doctors are similar to some extent. They both need to work 24 hours a day. They are also professions that accept a lot of negative emotions, especially emergency departments, pediatricians and criminal police officers, which are particularly stressful.

In this game, turning famous is very demanding, but turning black is relatively easy - if you are a fun-loving player who treats the world as a complete game and does not treat the people around you as living beings, you can achieve this goal in minutes.

Bai Jiu has been a detective for four years and is still on the red side, and their backgrounds are somewhat similar... so his first impression on Gu Shea is relatively reliable.

So when he saw the words from his teammate, Gu Sheo replied directly:

[Greedy: What's the matter? 】

[Jealousy: ...it’s not me, it’s a player I know from the passerby camp who’s been in trouble lately. 】

[Jealousy: She wrote the original plot of Conan into a novel, and published it just by changing the protagonist to a girl, the child to amnesia, and the child to a boy. A book was just published recently, you should be able to see it in bookstores. 】

Seeing this sentence, Gushe's eyes moved from the mobile phone screen to the poster in front of her, and the slogan came into view again.

[Greed: I did see it. 】

[Jealousy: This novel may have caused trouble. She said she saw strange men in black wandering around her house recently, and one day she was followed on her way back from the publishing house...]

[Jealousy: You know, the original story is a real case here. Some of the things she copied are actually the dark history of certain people, such as the Moonlight Sonata incident... It is possible that she was targeted for this. 】

Gushe's mood was extremely complicated at this time.

...It turned out to be really written by a player.

No, that's not the point now, the point is...

When Chisong met the day before yesterday, he mentioned something to Gushe - some people began to pay attention to the truth of the massacre on Yueying Island, so the organization sent people to clean up those members whose identities were about to be exposed, and killed those who had a grudge against these people. , a Tokyo doctor named Makoto Asai.

Moon Shadow Island is a very important chapter in the original work, and Conan has grown since then. However, it is still three years before the plot begins. The murderers and prisoners in this case are all dead, and they were all killed by the organization.

——The undercover agent whose real name is Shuichi Akai even used rye whiskey.

At that time, Gushe realized that there was a player influence, and even guessed whether it was the Black player.

As a result, her teammates now told her that it was influenced by a passerby player. That player became a copywriter and published a modified version of Conan's novel...

That fake doctor died so unjustly...Does the player know about this?

[Greedy: Did she call the police? 】

[Jealousy: It’s useless to report it. In this case, no case will be filed. I also checked near her house and found no suspicious person...]

[Jealous: ...I'd better ask her to create a temporary group for you. You two can talk directly in there. I might misrepresent what I'm saying...]

Gushe noticed his hesitation.

But she still accepted his proposal.

While the other party was pulling people in, Gushe did not enter the bookstore, but walked to a nearby bench and sat down. She opened a web search and quickly found more information.

When she saw the hairstyle that was very similar to Hui Hui's in real life, Gu Sheo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The temporary group was established and she clicked in.

There were only two of them in the group, [Jealousy] was not among them.

She saw the player's ID - Arrogance.

[Arrogance: Hello sister! My name in the game is Toi Ka Hojo, just call me Toi Ka! 】

[Arrogance: I heard from Baijiu that you are already working, so I should call you sister. Is that okay? 】

[Greedy: This is fine... How did you say you met the strange man in black? 】

Gushe was shocked when she first heard the news about Moon Shadow Island, and it was difficult to ask more questions. It was not until Chisong said that Rai would continue to clean up the relevant personnel that she ended the topic.

So it should be the organization that is eyeing Tojo Hojo now... But the problem is that with Akai's level, who he wants to track and monitor, how can he be discovered? It was most likely that Tojo Hojo was an ordinary student before?

[Arrogance: I don’t know either. When I looked carefully, he disappeared. 】

[Arrogance: Sister, I have a book signing on Saturday afternoon. I'm worried that he will continue to stare at me. I'm so scared... Sister, can you protect me? Baijiu said you are a policeman or an undercover agent, you must be very powerful! 】

[Greedy: You want me to protect you personally? 】

[Arrogance: No need to stick close to me, as long as you are nearby...]

Tojo Hojo kept begging.

As for Gushe, faced with the coquettishness of a girl who was somewhat similar to a real acquaintance, her doubts at the beginning gradually turned into hesitation.

Finally, she agreed.

The police are vigilant.

They will be wary of criminals' traps and will not fall into them easily.

But what if the other party is not a criminal, but just a passerby, a... being who should be protected behind them?

If a passerby says he is in danger and wants help, should the police lend a helping hand? ...If you go to help, will you be as vigilant as you are when facing criminals?

The answer is no.

This is the rule set at the beginning of the game: the red side restrains the black side, and at the same time, the passers-by restrain the red side.

The sheath just stepped into the trap.
