Chapter 2 (Catching Bugs)
"But they are indeed very hospitable." Kurokawa Akishige sneered and said sarcastically.
Just a little too enthusiastic.
She was making promises to him one second, and the next second a murder occurred on his only remaining roller coaster. How could it be so difficult that no one survived?
[……]
The promise he just made was slapped in the face, which was very embarrassing for him as a system.
The system was silent for a few seconds before proposing a remedy.
[A police assistant detective mod has been added to the game. Players only need to cooperate with the police investigation to successfully resolve this incident without damaging the amusement park's rating. Also, as compensation for this bomb incident, we will give players three free ten-draw card draws and occasional sponsorship drops to help players get back on track as quickly as possible.]
Unlike other card-based games, Beika Town Land Simulator's card draw requirements are extremely demanding, with even cash being of no use. However, the items drawn can be very useful for early game development, ranging from free labor to unlocking game areas.
You have to know how important free and hardworking labor is for a game that starts with an initial capital of only 300,000 yen and a hell difficulty level.
In particular, the employees in this game are very difficult to serve and will protest, go on strike, and resign at any time.
According to the system, he should not be able to go back. Although he was a little tempted, how could he be bribed with only thirty draws?
"Fifty draws." Kurokawa Akishige raised his eyelids and looked through the blinds at a corner of the amusement park. "And one more free construction team."
The extent of damage to the facilities can be roughly seen from the park map. The attractive rides have basically been blocked. If you take over the park and can only operate it with the low-stimulation facilities in the center of the park, it will be difficult to achieve quick profits.
There used to be a roller coaster to attract tourists, but now it’s even a question whether it can be used after the murder.
The construction team can build the facilities as quickly as possible, which can save him a lot of time.
[Can. ]
The system agreed quickly, as if it was afraid that Kurokawa Akifumi would make other requests, and it hastily decided the matter.
Kurokawa Akifumi tapped the table with his fingers, feeling that the speed at which the system responded was a little abnormal. Just as he was about to open his mouth to test the waters, he heard a knock on the door.
"Knock-knock—"
When the amusement park was first built, funds were scarce. For an office, which would not bring in any income but was essential, Kurokawa Akiho decisively chose the cheapest furniture for all the items, so that he could now clearly hear the conversation outside the door.
"Hey, Xiao Zhenping, you're not going to pry the door open directly, are you?"
A male voice came into Kurokawa Akishige's ears through the cheap office door.
The man called Xiao Zhenping scoffed and knocked on the simple door lock with his finger bones: "Do we need to pry this door open?"
Kenji Hagiwara looked over and saw that the simple door handle and door lock were a bit horrible.
It felt like the door was about to collapse without anyone prying it open.
"But after all this has happened, our elusive director is really sitting still," said Matsuda Jinpei. "If we don't get out soon, the amusement park will be blown up. But it's just in time for us to resign and get out of this weird place."
Resign?
The sensitive words made Kurokawa Akishige squint his eyes and open the employee management interface.
The employee interface had just been updated not long ago, and many employees had the word "resignation" written behind them. After he simply refreshed the interface, a series of red resignation dots on the employee interface were eliminated, leaving only a few employees in service.
He found the information of employees whose names contained the word "Zhen Ping" from the address just now. Just when he was about to express his admiration for their unwavering commitment to the park, he clicked on it and found that these remaining employees were selected by him through drawing cards. They had signed long-term employment contracts and, unlike those hired from outside, had no chance of running away.
He clicked on Jinpei Matsuda's employee information, took a quick look, and his eyes stopped at the position he used to hold.
Former member of the Metropolitan Police Department's Security Department's Mobile Group's □□ Processing Team.
□□Processing class.
So how did his Ferris wheel explode with former members of the bomb squad around?
Is the auxiliary police detective mod mentioned by the system really useful?
The slight excitement that had just ignited in my heart was half extinguished by this message.
The feeling of being on a pirate ship is getting stronger and stronger.
Kurokawa Akishige clicked on the information of the remaining three employees one by one without any hope.
Kenji Hagiwara, formerly a member of the □□ Processing Squad of the First Mobile Squad of the Security Department of the Metropolitan Police Department.
Date Ko, formerly of the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division 1, Second Division of the Assault and Murder Investigation Unit 3.
Zhu Fushiki Kagemitsu, formerly of the Public Security Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department.
Looking down, Kurokawa Akiho couldn't help but ask, "Is this the auxiliary police mod you were talking about?"
[Please rest assured, players, after the bomb incident, we will update and integrate the effective resources in the park. Re-editing the basic information of bound employees is one of the measures we will take to help players rebuild the park to the greatest extent possible.]
Does that mean the staff adjustments were made after the bomb incident?
The system's explanation made the black-haired young man feel a little relieved.
He originally wanted to continue bargaining with the system, but if he didn't open the door, the guys outside would start loudly plotting to break in.
Repairing doors is also expensive.
He is so poor now that he has to spend his money wisely.

Zhu Fujingguang looked puzzled: "Have you never met the director?"
He had just entered the amusement park and was still confused by everything he saw. This amusement park was full of strangeness and incongruity.
Zhu Fujingguang clearly remembered the feeling of pulling the trigger and the bullet piercing his heart. When he opened his eyes again, he saw his colleagues who had died in the line of duty.
Jinpei Matsuda took out a long, thin lock-picking tool and prepared to force open the door in front of him. After hearing the question from Keimitsu Morofushi, his face darkened and he quickened his movements.
Hagiwara Kenji gave a wry smile. "No. Ever since I arrived here, all daily instructions have been sent from that communication device. Even if I ask other employees, no one knows where the director is. There's only this director's office."
"But I've observed that no one comes in or out here."
He was the first person to enter the amusement park. He could only move around during specified time periods each day, and there was a communication device to plan his daily tasks. The employees in the park had strange expressions, as if they were under control. They followed the routine every day like a written program, without any unnecessary communication.
With tasks and instructions that follow schedules and offices that no one has ever entered or left, the entire amusement park reveals its weirdness without any concealment.
Kenji Hagiwara tried to escape from here, but as soon as he walked out of the park, he seemed to lose consciousness. When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the staff dormitory until Jinpei Matsuda arrived. Then there was an explosion in the park, and Keimitsu Morofushi and Kou Date arrived in sequence.
The originally mechanized life has changed. After the explosion, the entire amusement park seems to have become an ordinary amusement park. The good news is that the employees have resigned one after another, giving them hope of leaving here. The bad news is that they cannot resign and still cannot leave the park.
Kurokawa Akiwa, who was the subject of other people's discussion, listened calmly, gained a brief understanding and filled in the information gap.
Before the system could help but issue a reminder, Kurokawa Akishige opened the office door.
The sunlight then shone into the office, casting a golden glow on the ground, and the discussions stopped abruptly.
The sudden intensification of the halo made Kurokawa Akishige's eyes blurry. His blue cat eyes narrowed slightly, and it took him a while to relax and adapt.
The azure sky was reflected in his eyes, and the peaceful wind blew the hair beside the boy's ears. A man with curly black hair was squatting in front of him, and two young men were standing behind him.
However, what caught Kurokawa Akishige's attention most was a series of strange characters floating in the air.
Where the dream begins
【This little broken website is awesome! 】
[Everyone stand!]
[This collaboration is awesome! ! ]
【Thanks to Pilipil Unlimited Minerals Company! 】
Kurokawa Akishige's eyelids jumped when he saw the familiar name of the barrage platform. As a game geek, he naturally hung out on various sites and had a lot of exposure to second-dimensional culture. The answer in his heart was about to come out.
Something that looks like a barrage of comments floats at the top of the line of sight, not blocking the view, but making it difficult to ignore.
【Dreamlike linkage ahhh! 】
【Historical Witness】
[The front row contractor is the headmaster! ! ]
【Why are you just standing there while taking screenshots?】
【Finally, the little headmaster has arrived. 】
[Mazda was caught on the spot hahahaha]
[Why does it seem like the young principal is in a bad mood?]
Let me explain. The young director had probably just been kidnapped and taken to work at the amusement park. Judging from the timeline revealed by the old thief, the young director was probably in the late stages of Chuunibyou. It's normal to be upset when you find out you've been kidnapped, hahahaha.
When Kurokawa Akiwa's eyes fell on the red-marked barrage, his face darkened.
Who is in the late stage of Chuunibyou?!
Kurokawa Akiho, who was originally a little skeptical, was completely certain that these things were barrages. As a ten-year-old dlidli user, how could he not recognize them?
The black-haired young man frowned. Once you accept that what was in the air was a barrage of bullets, it was not difficult to guess his current situation.
The previous conjecture was temporarily overturned. The amusement park might be a passage to another world, and he was the chosen one?
Kurokawa Akiho has a high tolerance for reality. Who hasn't fantasized about being the protagonist and killing everyone in their middle school years? But when that possibility actually materializes, it changes into a completely different mood.
But judging from the comments, he seems to be the protagonist?
Even if he is not the protagonist, he should still be a very popular character.
He calmly suppressed the urge to continue his investigation and returned his attention to the person before him. His turquoise cat-like eyes slowly scanned the three people in front of the door, finally settling on Matsuda Jinpei, who was squatting on the ground, lock picking tools in hand.
Having found the main person who instigated the resignation, Kurokawa Akifumi raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a calm voice, "What are you doing here if you're not going to work?"
The air froze for a moment.
Morofushi Kagemitsu and Hagiwara Kenji looked at each other and gained a hint of inquiry from each other's eyes.
Matsuda Jinpei paused, put away the lock-picking tools in his hand, stood up, and looked calmly at the black-haired young man who walked out of the principal's office.
"Who are you?" Matsuda Jinpei asked directly.
The children in front of them, who looked like high school students with barely grown hair and tender faces, were clearly not what their principal had expected.
In Matsuda Jinpei's guess, the director should be a Mediterranean-looking man with a big belly, or at least a middle-aged man. After all, the management model of this amusement park is not something that a high school student can operate.
Kurokawa Akiwa was a little unhappy about being treated like a child. He replied bluntly, "Kurokawa Akiwa, the director of this amusement park."
Too young.
Kenji Hagiwara thought of many possible images of a kindergarten principal, but judging from the amusement park's bizarre and exploitative business model, no one could connect these with the high school students in front of him.
"Hey, little brat." Jinpei Matsuda said.
[Accurately stepping on mines hahahahaha]
【As expected of Mazda. 】
The principal really hates being treated like a child. Whenever he hears that, he gets angry like a cat. Hahaha.
Kurokawa Akishige's nerves jumped. He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "Please call me the principal."
Who are you calling a little devil?!
