At this point, Yoruichi Toyama letting her figure out the answer herself, instead of saying definitively, "Believe me, he's lying to you," already speaks volumes.
Compared to King Sisa's daily solemn vows before himself and the other four "saints," forcefully instilling the theory of "judgment" into them, the attitude of this person before him was far too peaceful and too tolerant.
It even makes people wonder who the real god is.
Of course, gods do not exist, at least not in a way that we can understand.
This was the final conclusion Wuqin reached.
King Sisa's behavior and logic were too much like that of a human being, and not even a noble one.
"Why...why did he lie to me..." This was the last question the girl asked after breaking free from brainwashing.
"What good would it do a child like me to be deceived?"
She didn't get an immediate answer, but instead felt a warm touch on her head.
"You're no ordinary child, Wuqin!"
"At your age, being able to hack into the Lanze Group's meticulously crafted management system via the internet is something many adults can't do."
"It's probably because you have this ability that you've attracted attention."
"Didn't you say that there were only 5 servants of God personally selected by the 'King of Sissa'?"
Hearing these words that she had proudly uttered before, Wuqin, who was filled with confusion and sorrow, couldn't help but laugh.
"You have a really nice way of speaking!"
...
At 7:23 a.m., when the hotel guests who were used to getting up early had finished washing up and the breakfast restaurant was gradually becoming lively, the Okinawa Prefectural Police, who had been waiting in the vicinity, received a message from Akechi on Konhei Island.
The two guests in this hotel, who were also attending the launch event for the Aizawa Group's ocean park, Yuichi Shindo and Kenya Miyagaki, were accomplices of the terrorists.
Recalling the two figures mentioned by Yoruichi Toyama when she called the police, the prefectural police had no doubt about this conclusion and immediately took action to make arrests.
Both of them were caught off guard and cornered in the room, forced to surrender.
The identities of these two individuals are insignificant.
Yuichi Shindo is a mid-level manager at a large company. He accidentally gets the chance to attend a press conference through a lottery held by the Aizawa Group for members of the public.
Kenya Miyagaki is his companion, a security guard who was recently fired from his company because of his violent tendencies.
Faced with the police who seemed to have fallen from the sky, Shindo still seemed to want to deny it, but Miyagaki Kenya had already shouted out their extreme slogan, just like the three people who were arrested.
At this point, all five so-called "holy men" personally chosen by the King of Sisa have been captured.
As for King Sisa himself, and the many followers of the "Neom Kingdom" he created online, their fate will have to be dealt with later.
In any case, the current crisis has been resolved.
The high-ranking police officers stationed at the hotel, or perhaps the political figures behind them, all breathed a sigh of relief.
It is certain that the next two press conferences can be held as scheduled.
...
"This is not over yet."
Mingzhi, still at the Deep Blue Hotel on Konpaku Island, made this declaration to his colleagues and assistants.
Inspector Shiratori, who had just received verbal praise from the Metropolitan Police Department's leaders over the phone, was taken aback upon hearing this.
"However, Shuicheng and the others have already admitted that the five of them were the ones who participated in this operation."
That's not wrong.
Knowing the plot in detail, Yoruichi Toyama received the same answer from Wuqin.
The instructions given to them by "King Xisa" were to have Kenya Miyagaki and Yuichi Shindo secretly transport the poison gas bombs they had acquired to Azure Island and place them in the yet-to-open Deep Blue Hotel.
Wuqin was responsible for hacking into the hotel's management system, creating backdoors for them, and erasing surveillance videos.
Mizuki Ryujin, who has a background in the former Japanese military, led his men to storm the hotel during the opening ceremony, kidnapped all the senior executives of the Lanze Group, and planted a detonation device for a poison gas bomb to confront the police.
Ryuichi Mizushiro, the grandson of Ryu no Shin, serves as his assistant.
"However, they did not say that they would use hostage-taking to force the police or the Japanese government to agree to any conditions."
Yoruichi Toyama said.
At the same time, I was thinking that the seemingly crude plan of the "King of Xisa" actually had some ingenuity.
Because words like "poison gas bomb" and "hostage takeover" are so eye-catching, people tend to forget his motives.
The real purpose was hidden beneath this meticulously crafted absurd drama.
"So, they're still targeting the Lanze Group, aren't they?" Hakuba Saguru guessed.
"Perhaps it's a business competitor trying to cripple Lanze Group with such a scandal."
Considering that the stage for this event is Ganbi Island, a project that Lanze Group is about to open, this speculation is not without merit.
“The mastermind might not be on-site,” Hattori Heiji added. “Can’t he direct those people’s actions via the internet?”
The two high school detectives, who were usually invincible, played almost no role in this case; they simply took a nap, and everything was resolved.
When the two of them woke up in the morning, they were both kicking themselves, as if they had missed out on a fortune.
Therefore, at this time, we should double our efforts to make our presence felt.
“However,” Mingzhi continued with that pesky “however” after giving a polite nod, “According to the computer records of that country’s witch zither, the last time she contacted ‘King Xisa,’ the IP address of the other party was local, specifically located at the Deep Blue Hotel.”
