"Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Thor."

"You're welcome."

Thor's smile seemed to be twitching, as if it were something he had barely managed to force out.

Chapter 250 Miyamoto Rei's Father

Miyamoto Tadashi is the police chief. He is a diligent worker with a happy family. His daughter, Miyamoto Rei, is also a good student, and everyone who meets her praises her.

To outsiders, Miyamoto Masashi's life seems incredibly fulfilling, a level many would envy—but only Miyamoto Masashi knows that his recent situation is far from optimistic.

Because he was previously ordered to investigate bribery allegations against Congressman Zifang, he incurred the latter's wrath, and now that guy is making things difficult for him in various ways.

She even used her power to force Miyamoto Rei, whose grades were quite good, to repeat a grade because one of the councilors' sons happened to be a teacher at the high school Miyamoto Rei attended.

Although Miyamoto Rei always acted nonchalantly at home, Miyamoto Masashi knew he couldn't continue like this; he had to find a way to get rid of the threat from Representative Fujiwara.

Miyamoto climbed to this position step by step on his own merits. Among his relatives, the highest-ranking one is the police chief, so it is unlikely that he would ask relatives for help.

His only way out is to seek refuge with another power, and it must be a power that makes Councilor Zifang hesitant to act... But where would he find the opportunity to meet such a person?

But as the saying goes, every cloud has a silver lining. One day, Miyamoto learned some very special news from a detained thug.

The Kiryu Group, a yakuza organization in Shimokitazawa, seems to have intricate connections with the Shinomiya family!

The other officers just thought the thug was talking nonsense, but for Miyamoto Masashi, this was the only lifeline he could grasp.

If... if I could get in touch with the Shinomiya family, one of Japan's four major conglomerates, even local councilors wouldn't dare to make things difficult for me anymore!

……

"I see. So that's why you came to join the Kiryu Group."

After listening to Miyamoto's story, Kiryu finally understood why Miyamoto had come to join the Kiryu Group.

"But you're just a police chief, you're not worth anything, so please leave."

After these past few days of development, with the support of the Shinomiya family, the Kiryu Group's influence is expanding rapidly, and the police chief and the like are no longer of interest to them.

He wanted to develop the Kiryu Group into the largest underground organization in Japan for Qin Chuan, and with the Shinomiya family's power in the open, Qin Chuan would become the true controller behind Japan.

Although Qin Chuan never said he had such a goal, Kiryu made this decision for Qin Chuan on his own initiative, and it was even approved by the Shinomiya family.

Under normal circumstances, if the Shinomiya family, along with an obscure little organization, claimed to be able to conquer both the legitimate and underworld circles of Japan, they would definitely be ridiculed.

But now, the Kiryu Group has more than a dozen Stand users, all of whom were awakened by Qin Chuan's "Blackbird Black Sabbath" using "arrows".

Of course, they also have "Blackbird Lovers" hidden inside their bodies to ensure they don't do anything rebellious.

In a society where ordinary people have no contact with any unusual events, the existence of Stand users can accomplish many things, whether it's assassination or intelligence gathering, making the Kiryu Group and the Shinomiya family invincible.

Conquering Japan is not a problem at all. Without Qin Chuan even having to say a word, they will put him in the position they think he should be in.

Miyamoto Masashi was unaware of the Kiryu Group and the Shinomiya family's goals, but upon hearing Kiryu's rejection, he was not disappointed; instead, he became even more excited.

Because Kiryu did not deny his connection with the Shinomiya family!

If they can gain the support of the Shinomiya family through the Kiryu Group, they can get rid of the threat from Representative Fujito, and Miyamoto Rei won't have to worry about being held back again.

Thinking of this, Miyamoto gritted his teeth and said to Kiryu:

"In fact, I brought with me a piece of information when I came to join the Kiryu Group—I heard that the Kiryu Group is collecting information about 'viruses' or 'vaccines' being researched by certain research institutes?"

"Oh? You have such information?"

Kiryu was taken aback by what he heard, then showed an expression of interest.

He had people collect research intelligence on "viruses" and "vaccines," something Qin Chuan had asked Kiryu to pay close attention to shortly after he took over the Kiryu Group.

Because he had already met Saeko Busujima at that time, he naturally began to wonder if the world would experience a zombie crisis or something similar.

However, more than a week had passed since then, and Qin Chuan had almost forgotten about the casual remark he made back then, but Kiryu still remembered it clearly.

I haven't received any useful intelligence lately, but if it's Chief of Police Miyamoto... maybe he can bring some surprises?

"Hmm... we do collect this kind of information, but intelligence alone isn't enough to warrant our protection..."

Kiryu pondered for a moment, then, as if he had thought of something, suddenly turned his head and respectfully spoke to the empty corner beside him.

"Then, I'd like to ask you to check this person's 'qualifications'."

"Ok?"

Miyamoto was taken aback. He followed Kiryu's gaze to the corner of the room, but saw nothing.

Of course he couldn't see it, because standing in the corner of the room was none other than Qin Chuan's double, "Blackbird Black Sabbath".

Although it wasn't Qin Chuan himself, Kiryu still dared not be disrespectful when facing Qin Chuan's stand-in.

"Blackbird Black Sabbath" is a clone that separated from "Blackbird" before its evolution, so it still retains the appearance of "Blackbird" instead of Requiem.

He walked up to Miyamoto Masashi and, without Miyamoto Masashi being able to see him at all, slowly extended the "arrow" shrouded in shadow from his body.

The arrow swayed slightly as it was extended, clearly reacting to Miyamoto Masashi in front of it.

"very good."

Kiryu smiled slightly.

In this way, not only did they obtain the intelligence brought by Miyamoto, but they also gained a substitute who could not betray Qin Chuan (3.5), thus winning.

……

"Dad, are you back?"

Rei Miyamoto, who was doing her homework in her room, heard the door open outside and ran out to see Tadashi Miyamoto, who looked exhausted as he returned home.

Miyamoto returned much later than usual today; it was already completely dark.

"Ah... I'm back. I've been busy with some things, but it's been very rewarding."

Miyamoto forced a smile and said to Miyamoto Rei.

"By the way, Li, have you ever thought about transferring schools?"

"Transferring schools?"

Rei Miyamoto was taken aback, not expecting to be asked such a question by Masashi Miyamoto.

Although she was deliberately made difficult by Koichi Fujito at school and was forced to repeat a year, she had never really thought about transferring schools at first.

"Transferring schools...where can I transfer to?"

Chapter 251 Blackbird Requiem Saves Time

That night, Qin Chuan, who was sitting in front of his computer, received a call from Kiryu.

Kiryu is a very sensible person. He would never call Qin Chuan for no reason, and he wouldn't even report to Qin Chuan when a new Stand user appeared in the organization.

It wasn't that Kiryu wanted to hide it from Qin Chuan, but rather that he knew there was no need to—Qin Chuan's "Blackbird Black Sabbath" was in charge of awakening Stands, and each awakened Stand user would also have "Blackbird Lover" implanted in them.

The Kiryu Group has awakened several Stand users; how could Qin Chuan not know? Calling Qin Chuan to report this would only bother him.

So if Kiryu is going to make a phone call, it must be because something very important has happened, such as the matter of the Shinomiya family contacting him last time.

Qin Chuan's hands were still on the keyboard, and his game character on the screen was still fighting in the dungeon, so he couldn't free his hands.

So Qin Chuan summoned "Blackbird Requiem," made him pick up his phone, answer the call, and put the phone to his ear:

"Kiryu, is there something you need calling me so late?"

"Lord Qin Chuan, there has been progress in the intelligence about the 'virus' that you asked us to collect on the 29th. It comes from a police chief."

Kiryu's voice came from the phone, but the content made Qin Chuan pause for a moment before he remembered that he had indeed given this instruction before.

That was something he gave the order to after meeting Saeko Busujima at the kendo dojo. After all, he didn't want a zombie crisis to break out in the world and kill off the vast majority of people at once.

He quite liked the everyday atmosphere of this world. In the mission world, he was either training or using force to fight people, but the everyday world allowed him to temporarily put aside his violent emotions.

If one is constantly dominated by violent emotions, one will become strange, so he will not allow this ordinary world to become a zombie apocalypse.

However, after a week, Qin Chuan had almost forgotten about this matter.

Actually, it's not that Qin Chuan is forgetful. Although to outsiders it only seems like a week has passed for Qin Chuan, he has actually been cultivating in the Spiritual Time Chamber for several months.

It's normal to forget some things after a few months, isn't it?

"Interesting... Tell me the details."

Qin Chuan's fingers continued to tap on the keyboard as he listened to Kiryu's report while skillfully maneuvering his game character to evade the dungeon boss's mechanics.

With Qin Chuan's current reaction speed, even if he has to pay a lot of attention to Kiryu's report, he can easily control the game character to avoid things that test reaction speed.

……

As the game instance ended, Kiryu's report also came to a close.

"I see. So a pharmaceutical company developed something that looks like a 'vaccine' but is actually a 'virus'."

Qin Chuan typed "Going to the toilet" on the computer and then personally took the phone from "Blackbird Requiem".

"In clinical trials, this substance caused a patient who had recently died to have an instinctive reaction, as if he had been resurrected."

"Yes, but this matter has been suppressed, and apart from a very few people, no one else knows anything about it."

Kiryu's voice continued.

"I heard that the pharmaceutical company was planning to further develop this 'virus,' and the police chief named Miyamoto Tadashi found out about it by chance while investigating the pharmaceutical company's tax evasion."

"What's the name of the pharmaceutical company?"

While chatting with Kiryu, Qin Chuan also opened a webpage for "Blackbird Requiem" and typed on the keyboard, searching for recent news related to pharmaceutical companies.

However, these are all trivial matters, nothing more than which pharmaceutical company's stock price has risen or fallen, or which pharmaceutical company has released a new product.

Come to think of it, how could something related to such an experiment be released, especially a technology like "resurrection of the dead" that sounds so controversial?

Although there is no more specific investigation, Qin Chuan estimates that this "virus" should be the same thing that caused the zombie apocalypse in that work.

Even this information was provided by Miyamoto Masashi—if Qin Chuan remembered correctly, this guy should be the father of Miyamoto Rei, one of the heroines in the original work.

In a sense, it's also a kind of fate. Having obtained a Stand from the JOJO world, Qin Chuan has begun to believe in the existence of fate to some extent.

However, he is an outsider, and the fate of the people in this world is none of his concern.

"It's Blackjack Pharmaceuticals. I heard that the founder was saved by a black market doctor named Blackjack decades ago, so that's why it was named that."

Kiryu recounted the information he had heard from Miyamoto.

"However, this company recently underwent a major personnel change, and it's unclear where the people who were in charge of researching that virus have been transferred. The Shinomiya family might need to help."

Although this pharmaceutical company has created a rather heavyweight virus, it is still easy for the Shinomiya family to find clues if they want to.

"There's no need for that, I'll handle it."

Qin Chuan declined calmly. Although he was willing to ask the Shinomiya family for help, the Shinomiya family was, after all, just a conglomerate of ordinary people. He didn't know how long it would take to get them to find clues.

If it were Qin Chuan yesterday, he might have accepted Kiryu's suggestion to have the Shinomiya family help find the target, and then go to 293 to eliminate him himself.

After all, although he had acquired considerable abilities at the time, if he couldn't find his target, even the strongest abilities would be useless.

But things are different now; Qin Chuan has directly activated the "Blackbird Requiem" ability.

—The “outcome” was set that “Blackjack Pharmaceuticals’ ‘virus’ along with all data was destroyed!”

A strange fluctuation spread out from Blackbird Requiem's ​​body, unnoticed by anyone except Qin Chuan, who felt that a portion of the "qi" in his body had disappeared.

Although this loss is negligible in terms of the total amount of Qin Chuan's "qi", if all of this "qi" were converted into Kamehameha, the destructive power would not be underestimated.

Logically speaking, destroying a virus research site shouldn't require so much "energy," but Qin Chuan didn't know the location of the site, so this "energy" was probably used for searching.

"Tomorrow, keep an eye out for any news about sudden explosions at Blackjack Pharmaceuticals' research sites... or even research institutes that aren't under Blackjack Pharmaceuticals."

Although the power of "Blackbird Requiem" had clearly taken effect, Qin Chuan didn't feel anything special.

If all goes well, we should hear the relevant news tomorrow, he instructed Kiryu on the other end of the phone, and then ended the call.
