On the third day after Mizuo Sosuke's death, Tanaka Publishing announced the global release of the second volume of "Twilight".
In the beginning, many people criticized the publishing house for its greedy behavior. However, outside the Tokyo Tower, Mizuo Sosuke's blood was still hot, and they couldn't wait to come out and make money.
But despite all the cursing, everyone still bought the books honestly. After receiving the books, everyone fell silent and no one cursed the publishing house anymore.
The second volume of "Dusk" decrypts all the foreshadowings in the first and second volumes. The biggest secret hidden is that the detective and the policeman are actually brothers. It turns out that the detective did not die and survived the massacre.
His goal is to take revenge on the three people who killed his family: a director of a large conglomerate, a top politician, and a descendant of Shinto.
Because the elder brother, a policeman, was too capable and touched the cake of three people, the tragedy happened.
In the second volume, the elder brother revealed all the masks with blood and died of a ruptured abdomen. The younger brother's ending was not written because Mizuo Sosuke was already dead. The publisher wrote at the end of the book, "The ending of this book was not completed due to the death of Mr. Mizuo. We are very sorry."
The information revealed during the live broadcast has made it clear to readers that "Twilight" is a novel adapted from real events, and the prototypes are probably Takuma Amei and Sosuke Mizuo.
The elder brother in the book chose the same way to die as Takuma Amai. Although the younger brother's ending could not be written down, it seemed unnecessary to write it down on paper, because the younger brother in reality had already made his choice, and ultimately died for justice like his brother.
"I can't accept that the tragedy of Mr. Shuiwei's family was caused by that person, but why doesn't he come out to apologize and admit his guilt? Aren't people's lives important?"
"Haha, don't pretend you didn't hear it. The Karasuma Group, the tragedy of Mr. Mizuo and Mr. Amai was caused by you. What are the police doing? Why don't they arrest them?"
"Please don't let taxpayers down and support the police in arresting the relevant personnel! How many times will Japan lose face around the world?!"
Related comments have emerged one after another, calling for punishment of the relevant personnel.
The Cabinet had to issue a statement, saying that after investigation, the incident between Takuma Aoi and Mizuo Sosuke's family was planned by Shindo Daigo, and had nothing to do with the current highest official in the Cabinet and the descendants of Shinto. Please do not believe the rumors, after all, Shindo Daigo had been liquidated in the Takuma Aoi incident.
But the government's credibility was greatly damaged in these two incidents, not to mention that they were not innocent, so even though they were telling the truth, the people did not believe a word of it.
The cabinet tried many tricks to divert the attention of the immigrants, including pouring dirty water on Mizuo Sosuke. They had used this trick many times when Amei Takuma died, but it had little effect on Mizuo Sosuke.
Mizuo Sosuke is different from Amaai Takuma. Most of Amaai Takuma's appearances are interviews, and to the public, he is more like a symbol of a hero that the Metropolitan Police Department has erected for the outside world.
Mizuo Sosuke is much more real. People can feel his thoughts from his books. The number and quality of his fans are not comparable to Takuma Amai, and this time he died because of saving people.
Lies written in ink cannot cover up facts written in blood*. No one believed the brainwashing packages released by senior officials, so they had to use their last resort and list "Dusk" as a banned book and block it completely.
These actions stirred up a hornet's nest. Not to mention that this action confirmed their guilty conscience, what is the most popular book in history? It is a banned book! Even some people who don't read mystery novels have been curious about it.
Although Japan banned the book, other countries did not. Tanaka Shoyo cleverly sold the Japanese version in neighboring countries at the same time, saying that it was to make it easier for Japanese citizens to buy it. For a time, the already popular "Twilight" became even more difficult to find.
But the turmoil brought about by "Twilight" goes far beyond this. Mizuo Sosuke is a world-renowned writer, and his fans are spread all over the world. The highest quality fans among them are those who have been saved by him. Therefore, after returning to their own countries, these fans all took action and began to avenge Mizuo Sosuke.
Just as Mizuo Sosuke and Rum said, the Black Organization's influence around the world has suffered a severe blow, and Karasuma Renya was sent to the intensive care unit due to anger.
Neon’s two top leaders were not having an easy time either. Under pressure from both home and abroad, one of them stepped down voluntarily and the other announced his abdication to his son a month after the release of “Dusk”.
Mizuo Sosuke seemed to have really done what he said at the beginning. What Amei Takuma couldn't do even at the cost of his life, he accomplished with just the touch of a pen.
......
After Miyazaki Ren woke up again, he was much calmer and no longer insisted on making apple pies as promised. He seemed to have accepted the death of Mizuo Sosuke. The rapid change made Furuya Rei more and more worried.
"Don't worry about me, Zero. I know what I have to do. I have things I need to do. They are still strong and I have to take care of them!"
The amber eyes were filled with the flame of revenge, which seemed to burn away all the filth in the world.
"Miyazaki, this is not just your business. You still have me, Hiro, Matsuda and Hagiwara, the squad leader, and thousands of police officers. We will always be your backers. All you need to do is take care of your health. Believe me, I will destroy that organization."
Furuya Rei pressed Miyazaki Ren's shoulder and said, "You guys, please trust us. After all, I was the chief in the police academy, and you were just an assistant. You just need to assist me."
"Then can Officer Furuya promise his assistant one thing?" Miyazaki Ren seemed to be in a better mood and spoke with a slight smile.
"What is it?"
"Please keep it a secret for me. Don't tell anyone about my physical condition, not even Hiro or Matsuda."
"Tsk." Fūya Rei smacked his lips in annoyance. "You really know how to give me difficult questions, Miyazaki."
"Then do you agree?"
"Okay, I'll agree." Furuya Ling tugged at the collar of his shirt, "Then you have to promise me one thing too."
"Um?"
"You must take good care of yourself and don't leave too early. We have agreed to go to the fireworks show together this year."
"Okay, I promise you." Miyazaki Ren stretched out her little bent finger, "Come and pull the hook. If I break the promise, you will punish me by making me eat a bowl of spicy curry."
"Are you still a kid, Miyazaki?" Although he said so, Furuya Rei still hooked Miyazaki Ren's little finger. "But a bowl of spicy curry is no problem for you, right? This punishment is too cunning."
"Then punish me if I don't abide by the agreement and just ignore me. I value my friendship with you all very much." Miyazaki Ren suddenly hit the nail on the head.
Furugaya Rei's face turned red, "Forget it, let's just eat spicy curry."
"There are a few more things I need to ask of you, Zero."
"Um."
"The first thing is to bring Sosuke back for me. My current identity does not allow me to show up. The second thing is to place Sosuke next to Takuma-san. I'm also troubled by the reconstruction of Ringo Town. Sosuke left a lot of money for the reconstruction of Ringo Town. Remember to find Yotaro at the convenience store for me and show off to him on behalf of Sosuke."
"Well, anything else?"
"Well, Karasuma Renya might look for me in the next few days. Don't contact me for the time being. I'm afraid that you will be exposed. I remember that Conan guy seemed to be at the scene. Sosuke likes him very much. Remember to help me keep an eye on him and don't let him have any psychological problems." Miyazaki Ren said carefully.
"good."
Miyazaki Ren jumped off the bed and put on her clothes and shoes. "I have to go back. Staying here will increase the risk of exposure. I'll leave the rest to you, Zero."
Ignoring the worried look from Fūya Rei, he put one hand in his pocket and waved, "Goodbye, Rei."
......
It’s time to get off work. It’s time to get off work.
It feels so good to only have to open one pseudonym! Miyazaki Ren was so moved that he almost shed tears. Although he felt sorry for those who were really sad for him, it felt so good to get off work. He no longer had to open three pseudonyms to get off work hard. It would be so nice to be a salted fish!
[Wuwuwu, congratulations to the host! Wuwuwu.]
[System, why are you crying? Is it because of Mizuo Sosuke?]
[Yes, oooo, so touching, so tragic, so tearful, oooo.]
Miyazaki Ren frowned. Others may not know, but the system does. It's all fake. He was so happy to get off work, but the system cried so hard. But crying is fine, but can you please stop playing sad music in his mind?
But he certainly couldn't be so blunt. Considering the system's delicate and sensitive mind, Miyazaki Ren decided to find something for him to do.
[System, you are awesome! You have made so much progress, thumbs up!]
The system's crying voice choked for a moment. Even though his emotional modules were becoming increasingly rich, he still couldn't understand why he was suddenly praised. [Hickey, host, why are you suddenly praising me?]
[Because your emotions are becoming richer and richer, you have made great progress, so your empathy is so strong.]
The CPU temperature of the praised system has increased by several degrees. [Is that so? Thank you, host, for teaching me how to create. Only then can the emotion module be upgraded so quickly.]
[If that's the case, then why don't you stock up more? Take advantage of this relationship and create more. Once the comics are out, you can publish them together.]
The system, which has become much smarter, feels a little strange. Is the host really worried about him? Why does he look like a capitalist? No, no, no, I can't think of the host like that. After all, the host has taught me so much, and the upgrade of the emotion module is also thanks to the host. I can't think like that.
[Okay host, I will go produce the materials now.]
Miyazaki Ren touched her chin. Why did she feel that the tone of the system was a little off? Forget it, as long as she could do her job, [Keep it up~]
....
Karasuma Renya was sent to the emergency room due to the release of the second volume of "Twilight". In order to cope with the continuous pressure, all code members took action. Miyazaki Ren had to ask for leave from the Metropolitan Police Department. Fortunately, he had worked hard before and worked overtime enough, so the leave was approved quickly.
Because of Rum's first request, the police destroyed the laboratory in the suburbs. And because Miyazaki Ren informed the organization in advance, all the data was destroyed. But time was urgent, so only the experimenters were evacuated, and the experimental subjects were still imprisoned in the dungeon.
When the police arrived, they were stunned to see the hundreds of experimental subjects that looked like zombies. Also arriving were many reporters who wanted to make a big news story.
The inside story of the laboratory was revealed, and public opinion against Karasuma Renya and the two top leaders grew. The people were angry and afraid, and they were afraid that one day they would become one of the experimental subjects.
The Metropolitan Police Department's phone was also bombarded with calls for the arrest of the murderer behind the scenes, Karasuma Renya. The police officers in charge of the Black Organization smiled bitterly, saying, "Is it because we don't want to catch him? It's impossible to catch him!"
On the other side, Karasuma Renya woke up and quickly brought Vermode back to her side.
Wearing an oxygen mask, Karasuma Renya was half lying on the bed, listening to his secretary report what happened during his coma.
"...That's about it, and Brandy sent a lot of emails, trying to communicate with you on the phone." The dull secretary narrated everything that happened in a very boring way. At the end, he mentioned Brandy, who Karasuma Renya was more concerned about before she fainted.
Karasuma Renya's chest rose and fell violently. His body would not allow him to be too emotional. After a while, he calmed down and said, "Contact Brandy. I want to talk to him."
"Yes." The secretary walked to the computer and started editing the email. His every move seemed to have been measured with a ruler, both regular and rigid.
"Buzz——" The phone vibrated. It was Brandy calling.
"Sir! I'm Brandy."
Hearing Brandy's slightly anxious voice, Karasuma Renya asked calmly, "Do you have something to report to me?" His voice was a little cold. This time the incident was so serious, and one of the culprits had a close relationship with Brandy, which made him begin to doubt Brandy's position.
"Sir, if the laboratory is destroyed, my examination and treatment next month..."
Brandy didn't finish his words, but Karasuma Renya understood what he had left unsaid.
Yes, Brandy's life is still in his own hands. Mizuo Sosuke also has a feud with him because of his parents. Moreover, the reason why the laboratory suffered less losses this time is because Brandy has been keeping an eye on Rum and reported the news in time. With so many handles and realities, Brandy can be trusted.
"Don't worry, as long as the experimenters are still here, you will have plenty of examinations and treatments." Although Karasuma Renya had ruled out Brandy as a suspect, she still tried to probe, "Brandy, you know your mistake. Why didn't you report Rum's matter to the organization in time?"
"I'm sorry, sir, this is all due to my mistake." Brandy admitted his mistake quickly, although it actually had little to do with him. After all, the encirclement and suppression plan was ordered by Karasuma Renya, and Brandy was only responsible for providing intelligence.
"I misjudged Rum's ability to endure. I originally thought that he could hold on for a few more days. When he couldn't hold on any longer, he would choose the most important laboratory as revenge. Then we could set a trap in the laboratory and arrest him. I didn't expect that his psychological endurance was so weak."
Karasuma Renya nodded with relief. No boss would dislike a subordinate who dared to take the blame for his leader. "The laboratory is the most important part of the organization. I allow you to make amends for your crime and build the new laboratory as soon as possible."
"Yes, I will follow your instructions, sir."
Having successfully gotten away with it and feeling that he was still as wise and powerful as ever, Karasuma Renya hung up the phone in a better mood.
Miyazaki Ren, who found out that he had been cleared of suspicion, was in a good mood.
After a few busy days, with the financial support of Karasuma Renya and the power of the two top leaders, the new laboratory was quickly set up, new experimental subjects were sent in continuously, and Miyazaki Ren could finally rest.
It's the day when comics are updated again. Miyazaki Ren is reading comics while eating watermelon.
As expected, the update this time is about the card tearing incident, and the end of the story is when Mizuo Sosuke and Rum jumped down from the Tokyo Tower.
Behind him was the brilliant Gemini meteor shower, his long black hair was blown by the whistling cold wind, Rum had a grim expression, and tears were running down Mizuo Sosuke's pale face, showing fear, sadness, reluctance and some relief.
73 does not use text to explain Mizuo Sosuke's final inner thoughts before his death, but instead uses a single frame painting.
The painting still shows the yard of the Miyazaki residence in Ringo Town. Everyone in the yard still looks like a child. Miyazaki Ayano and Miyazaki Narumi are grilling meat, and Miyazaki Ren and Mizuo Sosuke are standing on the left and right of Tenkai Takuma.
Mizuo Sosuke was standing with his hands on his hips, proudly showing off something to his friends. In front of him was an angry kid leading a big yellow dog. Miyazaki Ren and Amagi Takuma were looking at him with smiles on their faces.
The midsummer sunshine cast a light golden glow on them. Behind them were lush green apple trees with cicadas chirping on them. Everything was so full of life and beautiful.
[Gin, You Are My God: Ahhhhhh, am I a chopping block? Why does the old thief 73 keep stabbing me with his knife? ]
[Zawarudo: Am I seeing things? Sosuke is so smart, how could he die? Does Rum deserve it? He doesn't deserve it! Wuwuwu, why did he let Sosuke die, wuwuwu. 】
[The bucket on the big red head: Ahhhhh, you are so mean to my stars!!! You old thief, you have no heart, give me back my meanness! ]
[Jiao Jiao Lian: Wuwu, my Sosuke is so afraid of pain. In the last painting, he still has fear on his face. You old thief actually chose such a tragic way for Sosuke to die. You are so heartless! ]
[Golden Kagura Umbrella: Sosuke and Takuma's last memories are of their childhood. Woohoo, those were probably the happiest days of their lives. Damn Black Organization, damn Rum, damn high officials, I will spit on you forever!]
[Jingguang, my wife: I was so annoyed. When I saw the apple pie, I had a bad feeling in my heart. Sure enough, I didn’t get to eat it in the end. Ugh]
[Sailor Moon Buying Food: You are so heartless, old thief. A new life is about to begin. Sosuke should have gone to America! Why don't you let him have apple pie? Ren has practiced making apple pie so many times. How can your 37-degree hand draw such a cold knife that pierces my heart!]
[Tsujiko: Apple pie, lemon-flavored candy, all regrets before death. Even if you die, at least let Sosuke be satisfied. He was obviously looking forward to it. You old thief, you have no intention! Damn it, I will place an order to send you razor blades now!]
[Tears and Wine: Why did the only time in the life of the cowardly kid be brave end up like this! I am so upset, you old thief, you dare to give lunch to Sosuke, do you dare to come out? I will never kill you, at most you will be crippled! ]
【Big Cat: Wuwuwuwuwu... Wuwuwuwuwu...】
[I want to eat a bowl of pork trotter noodles: I really thought that Sosuke would always be proud, and after the Black Organization was over, he would return to Ringo Town with Ren to visit his brother, his parents, and the people he missed the most, Uncle Naruhi and Aunt Ayano, but how could the ending be like this? I can't accept it! ]
【Allen Walker: Rum, if you have the guts, go get the Black Organization, go get Karasuma Renya, why are you looking for Sosuke! Burst into tears.jpg】
[Lingluo: Sosuke has always been called a star, the brightest star in the literary world, the most dazzling star in the mystery world. So when the Geminid meteor shower came, he also fell. The brightest star in Japan fell...]
[Qi Yinliny: It's really hard to accept. I thought after saving the police academy team, the if chapter would have a happy ending, but first it was Takuma, then Vodka, and now it's Sosuke. I never thought Sosuke would die. After all, he has never been close to the main plot. At most, he just took Mingmei in. Wuwuwuwuwuwu]
[Fei Xiaobai: The timid Sosuke, who had always been protected, finally became a hero like his brother. But what about Ren? The survivors are the most miserable. Ren has lost his last relative. Wuwuwu, how could these three brothers be so miserable.]
[A pile of dirt: Don't mention Lian upstairs, I have a bad feeling. Based on the old thief's personality, these three brothers might all be dead. Wuwu, I don't want that!]
【Miaoshimiao: Don't be afraid. The old thief likes to kill one of his childhood friends and injure the other the most, such as Jingguang and Rei in the original work, and Vodka and Gin here. Now that Sosuke is dead, Ren, who was his childhood friend, will definitely survive! No matter what, I just want him to survive. I'll do something. I hope nothing happens to him!】
