Chapter 1: First Mission (Revised)
◎At the beginning, someone held a knife to his neck◎
"Ding... The system is starting up." A mechanical voice suddenly rang out in the dark silence.
The sound was ethereal, echoing from far to near.
"Congratulations, you have been successfully selected to be the first experimenter of this system and to experience a different journey. The system wishes you all the best." As the voice ended, a strong glare of light shot directly into An Jiaxi's eyes.
The next moment, there was a lot of noise in her ears. For a moment, a lot of chaotic and noisy sounds flooded into Mu An Jiaxi's ears like a tide. The sudden loud noise made her frown subconsciously.
"Don't be impulsive, release the hostages quickly."
"Put the knife down quickly. We can discuss everything. Don't hurt her."
"I'm telling you, you can't escape. Stop struggling in vain. Your companions have all escaped, and you're struggling alone. If you hurt her, it will only increase your sentence."
The voices around her gradually became clearer, but the content of their conversations puzzled Mu An Jiaxi, who hadn't figured out the situation. Before she could think about it, a male voice came from above her, shouting excitedly, "Stop talking nonsense! Tell everyone to retreat and get me a car, or I'll kill her."
As the noise grew louder, Mu'an Jiaxi slowly opened her eyes, only to be greeted by a bustling scene. A large crowd of onlookers, three layers deep and three layers deep, surrounded her, watching the excitement. Inside, a large group of police officers formed a cordon in front of the crowd, watching her warily.
Mu Anjiaxi was clearly still confused: What the hell is going on? There are so many police officers with guns. How did I wake up as a wanted criminal? Did I wake up in the wrong way?
She didn't notice that the other person was speaking Japanese, but she could still understand it.
While her mind was still completely confused, a fat man wearing a khaki windbreaker and a top hat standing opposite her spoke again.
"Put the knife down first and don't hurt anyone. We will give you everything you said. Put the knife down first and ensure people's safety." Behind him were two young people, a man and a woman. They also had serious expressions and stared at her without blinking, with anger and worry in their eyes.
"Stop talking nonsense and get my car ready quickly. I will let her go when we get to a safe place." The voice came from above his head. Because of his excitement, the hand holding the knife rubbed Mu'an Jiaxi's neck uncontrollably. The blade was pressed against his neck, sometimes far and sometimes near, and blood slowly flowed out.
A sharp pain suddenly hit her, and Mu An Jiaxi frowned in pain. Her mind suddenly cleared up. She was being kidnapped!
Damn, that hurts!
The policeman opposite was frightened by his actions and did not dare to provoke him anymore. He could only do as he said.
While Mu'an Jiaxi was cursing in her heart, she began to think of ways to save herself. After all, the knife was on her neck. If the kidnapper's hand shook again, she would really die.
At this moment, the system's voice rang out in her mind again: "Welcome to the world of comics. The tasker has successfully bound to the peripheral undercover system and will start accepting tasks from now on."
Mu Anjiaxi was angry and yelled at him in his heart: When did I bind my system to yours? You bastard, and you made it compulsory.
But no matter how he shouted, the system continued to speak as if it didn't hear him. Mu An Jiaxi finally understood that this was mandatory!
"The mission rules are that the missioner must conceal their identity and secretly provide the Black Organization's intelligence to the Red Team. They must help the Red Team stop the Black Organization's mission and overthrow the Black Team. Only then can they return to the real world."
"The Black Organization." Mu'an Jiaxi couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
Before she could continue thinking, the system interrupted her thoughts: "The Black Organization will be trading gold with someone in the garage of Beika-cho subway station at 3:00 PM this afternoon. Please pass the information to the Red Team in a timely manner and disrupt their transaction. If the mission fails, the tasker will be punished."
Following this mission, Mu'an Jiaxi finally remembered why the four words "Black Organization" seemed so familiar.
Oh my goodness! She came to the Conan world, the Detective Conan animation where it is commonly known as a place with a high incidence of crimes and one person dies every day.
She asked why the fat man looked so familiar.
Thinking of the system's task, Mu'an Jiaxi still felt that the kidnapper should just kill her directly. Her future was hopeless and dark, and there was no hope for her.
What a joke! Why not let her go to heaven instead of bringing down the Black Organization? Mu An Jiaxi suddenly felt that there was no hope of returning home. After all, this cartoon has been serialized for more than 20 years, and in the end no one knew who the big boss of this organization was. Asking her to bring down the organization was really giving her too much credit.
At the same time, the original owner's memories also came back. Mu An Jiaxi then realized that she was a soul traveler and also knew the cause and effect of the original owner's kidnapping.
The original owner had to go out for something today, but as he passed by a gold shop, he had the bad luck to run into a group of gold robbers who were fleeing in panic after the police arrived. There were three of them, and the other two were about to flee. The last one, unable to escape in time, panicked and grabbed a random unlucky person in the crowd to hold him hostage in a vain attempt to save himself.
And that unlucky person is her now.
Suddenly, a sharp, stabbing pain interrupted Mu'an Jiaxi's thoughts. He heard an uncontrolled roar from above his head: "I don't want a driver. Drive over here and tell everyone to get out of the way."
Mu'an Jiaxi's facial features were distorted with pain, and she was speechless for a while. She felt that if he hit her a few more times, she would really be dead.
It turned out that the police car was ready, but the police sent a driver to drive for him. The kidnapper got excited when he saw the driver, shouting that he didn't want a driver and asked everyone to stay away.
For the sake of his own life, Mu'an Jiaxi decided to speak up: "Brother, don't get excited. Don't forget that you have another person under you. Don't hit my neck when you get excited. If you hit me harder, I will really die. If I die, you will have no hostage. Can you please try to hold the knife farther away?"
When the man heard this, he immediately shouted impatiently, "Shut up." But the knife in his hand moved slightly away.
The cold and stinging sensation disappeared, and Mu'an Jiaxi breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her words had worked a little.
Following the order from the leading Inspector Megure, the group of police officers who were originally standing in the inner circle and forming a cordon to isolate the onlookers separated the onlookers from both sides, leaving a path in the middle.
"Walk."
Suddenly, Mu'an Jiaxi was pushed hard from behind, and her feet took a step forward involuntarily. Her neck almost hit the blade. "No, could you be more careful? I almost hit it."
As soon as the robber showed his knife, the cowardly Mu An Jiaxi instantly became obedient and said with a smile, "No, big brother, I just want to remind you to be careful. After all, swords have no eyes. If you are not careful, you will have no hostages to help you escape from the police."
"Behave yourself, stop talking nonsense and go." As he said that, Dao retreated a few centimeters and continued to walk forward, facing An Jiaxi.
Mu'an Jiaxi was forced to walk to a parking lot beside the road at the threat of a knife. She followed the kidnapper's instructions, opened the driver's seat, and got in. The kidnapper also got in the back seat, with the knife against her neck, and ordered, "Drive."
The moment he got into the car, Mu'an Jiaxi saw through the glass the two very familiar people in the crowd in front of him.
One looked like an elementary school student, wearing glasses. The other had short blond hair and tanned skin, standing out from the crowd. They stood side by side, one tall, the other short, their expressions identical, both staring at them with furrowed brows.
The two were Toru Amuro and Conan. Seeing them, Muan Jiaxi was also mixed with joy and sorrow. She had been a fan of Toru Amuro a long time ago, but being a fan was one thing, and she really didn't look forward to meeting her idol at all. After all, this was a place with a high incidence of crimes. How many days could she survive here?
But, I didn't expect that she would really come. This damn fate really can't be stopped.
Hearing the kidnapper asking her to drive, Mu An Jiaxi rolled her eyes and advised: "Brother, why don't you call a driver? I can't drive."
In fact, this is not entirely an excuse. She just got her driver's license and has never driven this kind of car except for the training car.
Mu Anjiaxi felt the scrutiny from behind, and then heard the kidnapper's distrustful question: "You're such a grown man, but you can't even drive a car. Do you think I'll believe you? Stop playing tricks. Hurry up, or I'll kill you."
The kidnappers decided that this was an excuse for Mu'an Jiaxi to delay time.
Now that things have come to this, if he doesn't believe it, there's nothing Mu An Jiaxi can do. She can only turn the key and start the car.
He operated the car like a tiger, and finally stepped on the brake instead of the accelerator. The car didn't move for a long time. Mu An Jiaxi muttered, "Why isn't the car moving?" Then he turned around and said seriously, "The car seems to be broken."
The kidnapper's forehead was twitching, and now he finally believed her words that she couldn't drive. He angrily asked Mu'an Jiaxi to come to the back and asked the police to find a driver, but it couldn't be a police officer, and he had to designate someone himself.
Hearing the kidnapper's request, Inspector Megure quickly placed people in the crowd, but the kidnapper did not choose anyone. "You, come here." Instead, he chose a dark-skinned detective who was standing in the first row as a bystander.
When Mu'an Jiaxi saw the person, two words immediately popped up in his mind: beautiful.
If the occasion wasn't inappropriate, I would have wanted to applaud. With such luck, it would be a shame if I didn't buy a lottery ticket.
After Amuro Toru got into the car, the kidnapper directly ordered: "Drive, drive faster, and get rid of those policemen."
Upon hearing this, Toru Amuro started the car and accelerated as instructed. Although the car seemed to be driving very fast, the police car behind him was always following him vaguely. It seemed that he had gotten rid of it, but he hadn't.
Mu'an Jiaxi looked at Amuro Toru in front of him, and saw him raise his head slightly to glance at the rearview mirror. Seeing that the kidnappers' attention was focused on the police car following behind, he immediately gave Mu'an Jiaxi a look.
As a result, the two of them had no tacit understanding. Mu An Jiaxi didn't understand at all. He tilted his head and replied with a confused look: What?
Amuro Toru sighed slightly and finally made a mouth shape.
Mu'an Jiaxi understood this time. He turned his head to look at the kidnapper beside him. While he was not paying attention, he carefully moved to the side to avoid the sharp knife in front of him. He held the door handle tightly with both hands, and tried to stick to the car door as much as possible, taking a protective posture.
The next second, the car body spun 180 degrees and then stopped. The sudden change of direction knocked the kidnapper, who was caught off guard, to the other side of the car door.
His head slammed heavily against the glass with a clang, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.
Although Mu'an Jiaxi was prepared, his head still hurt from the impact, and he couldn't help but marvel in his heart. He finally had the opportunity to experience Amuro Toru's driving skills, which was really comparable to riding a roller coaster.
Mu'an Jiaxi was dizzy for a few seconds, but soon recovered. He caught a glimpse of the kidnapper's dagger dropped on the ground, quickly stepped on it, and bent down to pick it up.
The kidnapper on the other side also recovered at the same time. Seeing this, he quickly tried to snatch the dagger, but was instantly restrained by Amuro Toru in the driver's seat. The difference in strength between the two was huge, and in just a moment, the kidnapper was unable to move.
An Jiaxi didn't have time to pay attention to the exciting scene here. He picked up the dagger, opened the car door and ran out. On the way out, his heel was tripped by the car door, and he stumbled and almost fell. He quickly steadied himself and immediately ran to a safe place. The whole process of rolling and crawling was witnessed by Amuro Toru.
What Mu'an Jiaxi didn't notice was that a piece of paper fell out of her shirt pocket and landed next to the car.
In a moment, all the policemen who followed behind surrounded her. The gold robber was also taken away. The dagger in Mu An Jiaxi's hand was also taken away by the police. The doctor also came and took her to the ambulance. Because it was just a flesh wound, she did not need to be sent to the hospital. The doctor only gave her a simple bandage, explained the precautions and let her go.
Mu'an Jiaxi got out of the ambulance and looked at the busy policemen on the street. She thought, she is fine now, so she can leave now.
After being tormented by the kidnappers, Mu'an Jiaxi had completely forgotten his mission.
At this moment, the system popped up in time: "There are 90 minutes left until the end of the mission."
Mu'an Jiaxi slapped his forehead in annoyance, and then he muttered softly, "Why did I forget the mission? Oh, it's all that robber's fault. Why did he rob for no reason..."
The voice stopped abruptly, and Mu An Jiaxi seemed to have thought of something, and a guess suddenly popped up in his mind: gold robber, the Black Organization also had a gold transaction in the afternoon, how could it be such a coincidence, could this robbery be related to the Black Organization?
At this time, a child ran past Muan Jiaxi and ran in front of Amuro Toru. The two were whispering something. Amuro Toru handed him a note. It was unknown what was written on it. Conan's face changed color instantly, his expression was solemn and slightly frightened. The next second, the two looked at Muan Jiaxi together.
Mu An Jiaxi, who was immersed in her own thoughts, suddenly felt two sharp gazes falling on her. She turned her head and met the gazes of two people, one tall and one short, in the distance.
The inquiring and interrogating gaze made An Jiaxi's scalp tingle. He felt as if he had been stripped naked and exposed to the sun, with all his secrets gone.
No! Can you please stop looking at it? It's creepy!
At this time, the system voice came out again: "Amuro Toru is suspicious. There are still 90 hidden degrees left before Amuro Toru discovers the identity of the tasker."
"There are 90 degrees of concealment left before Conan discovers the identity. From now on, every time the tasker reveals the vest, the tasker will be punished by the system."
Mu'an Jiaxi was stunned for a second, then a headache hit her. Points were deducted right from the start. What kind of evidence did she have? Should she give them this information? If she did, it would only increase suspicion, and her cover would probably fall even faster.
But what if she doesn't tell them? There are three robbers, two of them have escaped, and all the signs indicate that these three are very likely related to the Black Organization's transaction in the afternoon. Time is running out, and if she doesn't tell them, her mission will really fail.
But looking at the current situation, can she say that she is a little scared? She doesn't dare to go, fearing that if she goes and says something, she will lose another ten points.
Just as Mu'an Jiaxi was struggling in thought, two people in the distance made a move.
Looking at the two people gradually walking towards her, one in front and one behind, Mu An Jiaxi couldn't help but panic: Don't! Don't come over here!
