Chapter 50 Hagi You Backstab Me

The hands of time quietly passed half past seven.

The sun was extinguished, and the whole world fell into silence and darkness.

There was no wind tonight, so even the air was still. A huge dark sky loomed over everyone's head.

The lights in the room were too bright, making people's faces look pale and transparent.

No……

It's not illuminated by lights.

It's really pale!

Kenji Hagiwara lowered his head, looking at his "corpse" which had died in a miserable state, and fell into an unprecedented state of contemplation.

He pinched himself, then turned around and pinched Miyakawa Ryo.

Miyakawa Ling: “…”

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt. You can try pinching yourself again." Miyakawa Ling smiled.

"It looks like it hurts." Hagiwara Kenji turned his head and pointed at the body: "Did you see it?"

"Um."

"Did you really see it?"

"Um."

Kenji Hagiwara tried to kick his own "corpse" but missed.

Miyakawa Ling: "You can't touch it..."

"Why don't you give it a try?"

"..."Miyagawa Ling.

There is no need to use the word "kick"!

Miyagawa Ling squatted down and poked "Hagiwara Kenji" in the face.

“Through…through?” Hagiwara Kenji widened his eyes.

"Because it's an illusion, only people who see it, besides me, can experience it." Miyakawa Ling raised his head: "Didn't you understand the rules just now?"

"That's right... I roughly understand the agreement..." Hagiwara Kenji said in a gloomy tone: "As expected, I'm still not awake!"

"..."Miyagawa Ling.

"You went to bed pretty early then."

"You have a good speaking style, Komiyagawa."

Kenji Hagiwara walked around the corpse, looking left and right, his whole body filled with curiosity and shock.

After a while, he stopped and squatted beside the corpse, sighing: "So this is the kind of 'death' that won't hurt me at all... Just now, when Komiyagawa looked at me like that, I thought I was really going to die."

"I thought I managed my facial expressions very well," said Miyagawa Ryo.

"No, you should be more relaxed and playful next time. After all, I'm the one who's scared."

"It's better not to do it next time."

"Yeah." Hagiwara Kenji smiled. He raised his head, his face showing genuine relief and happiness, his eyes sparkling with crystal light: "Komiyagawa, this is the truth, it's great."

Everything he guessed was wrong.

But never was he so pleased when his reasoning was completely wrong.

The joy of his friend was genuine and contagious, and Miyakawa Ling couldn't help but curl his eyes, "Yeah."

Although... things haven't developed to this point yet, he is not happy with them.

However, shouldn't he be grateful for having developed to this point?

This was unexpected, but it was not the worst. Instead, it was the best outcome unexpectedly.

The anxiety hidden deep in my heart slowly dissipated under this smile.

Miyakawa Ling sighed: "Kenji, you are really amazing."

He is very good at seeing through other people's inner feelings and knows how to comfort them.

Sometimes, using your own emotions to motivate others is much more effective than direct verbal comfort.

Hagiwara Kenji: "From now on, I, who is so amazing, will hang out with Komiyagawa! Please give me your guidance!"

Miyakawa Ling burst out laughing and promised, "No problem! I will use the money I steal from the organization to support you and give you three times the salary!"

Hagiwara Kenji stroked his chin and said, "Five times is not enough?"

"Then ten times!" Miyagawa Ling was very easy to talk to.

Hagiwara Kenji nodded and praised, "Boss Miyagawa is very generous!"

In a corner where no one cares, the winery's salary has another unknown destination.

After talking about the matter, the two squatted beside the body and began to discuss how to deal with the follow-up of this matter.

"I will hint to Matsuda that you are still alive." said Miyagawa Ryo.

"Yeah." Hagiwara Kenji said naturally, "He will believe you."

"But...I'm really a little sorry for Xiao Zhenping."

After all… although Xiao Zhenping would believe Komiyagawa, but… his “corpse” is right here. Even Xiao Zhenping, facing this fact, can’t help but hesitate and be angry!

"Will Matsuda believe it?" Miyagawa Ling tilted his head, somewhat surprised by the matter-of-fact tone in Hagihara Kenji's voice.

"Well, he believes you."

Miyagawa Ling's eyes were complicated: "Matsuda he..."

"He believes in your deep affection for Kofuku." Hagiwara Kenji continued.

"..." Miyakawa Ling: "What is it?"

What affection?

What do you believe in?

What happened to him with Zero?

"Xiao Zhenping firmly believes that you will not do anything bad for Xiao Furuya." Hagiwara Kenji said with a smile.

“…”

"That's why, even though he, like me, misunderstood that Miss Zuogu was dead that night, he still said something so cool like 'I can put all my trust in Miyakawa Ryo without reservation.'"

"..."Miyagawa Ling.

He is in a very delicate mood now.

If Hagiwara Kenji valued the relationship between him and Ling so much and said such things, he could accept it.

But... that was Jinpei Matsuda, who disliked Zero at the beginning!

How could he joke like this!

Is Matsuda really okay?

"... No matter what, as long as he believes it, that's fine." Then Miyagawa Ling could rest assured: "But for the sake of safety, Hagi, can you teach me how to talk to Matsuda so that he will believe it more?"

"Uh..." At this time, Kenji Hagiwara was strangely silent.

He looked away: "Actually... I think the reason Xiao Zhenping still believed you when facing my corpse is because... I told him that you have a dual personality."

“???” What???

Dual personality?!

Several big question marks popped up in Miyakawa Ling's mind. Why couldn't he understand how things were developing?

What did he miss?

"As long as you use your 'main personality' to explain things to him, he will believe you even if the things are outrageous, because the bad things are done by your second personality, and it is normal for you to secretly save me."

"Wait a minute..."

Miyagawa Rei interrupted Hagiwara Kenji and pointed at himself: "Although I don't know when I started to have dual personalities, I can still figure it out... But, Hagi, do you mean - let me admit to Matsuda that I have a second personality? All the bad things are caused by the second personality?"

Hagiwara Kenji nodded seriously: "You can't tell Xiao Zhenping about the system. Dual personality is the most convincing explanation."

“……”Is it convincing?

A second-year graduate student actually thinks that the sudden emergence of a dual personality is convincing?

What have I become in their hearts?

"…What if Zero finds out?"

Hagiwara Kenji exclaimed: "You really have Kofuku all over your mind! Kojinpei's logic makes so much sense!"

“…”

Miyagawa Ling was helpless: "Let's talk business... I don't want to be misunderstood by Zero."

Hagiwara Kenji was a little embarrassed: "But I have already told him about the hypothesis of dual personality."

"?hagi you backstabbed me?!"

Hagiwara Kenji clasped his hands together and said, "I'm sorry."

Miyagawa collapsed on the sofa in despair.

"But... Komiyagawa, have you ever thought about this? You can't tell anyone about the existence of the system, but everyone already knows about you. With a dual personality, it will be easier for you to explain and gain everyone's trust."

Although it is a very wrong idea to speculate that he has dual personality.

But Hagiwara Kenji is really thinking about Miyagawa Rei now: "If you don't know the system, what will Kofuku think if he sees you 'killing someone'? Although dual personality is not much better... But in the end, I think that this way, as the main personality, you can still get 100% trust from everyone."

Miyagawa Ling couldn't help but imagine that scene.

If Zero didn't know about the system and his second personality, then seeing him kill someone...

Zero must think that this is his nature, right?

Because I spent so many years in the underworld, I am cold, cruel, and would kill without blinking an eye...

Zero would think that he has been pretending all these years...!!

"Actually, having dual personalities is pretty good." Miyagawa Ryo: "Kenji, you're a genius!"

Hagiwara Kenji was silent. He would be really embarrassed by this compliment.

Who would have known that there was a bizarre person like Vermouth in the organization who could change his face and voice!

It's totally unscientific!

Even more ridiculous than the second personality!

"Well, I'll go explain to Matsuda that I have... a second personality." Before coming here, Miyagawa Ryo had thought of many ways to explain to Matsuda Jinpei, but he never expected... such an outrageous explanation as having a dual personality!

Just imagine, from now on, he will have two personalities in everyone's eyes...feeling inexplicably ashamed and somewhat at a loss as to what to do.

Miyagawa Ryo took a photo of the body and sent it to Vermouth, and then waited for Matsuda Jinpei's arrival.

He received a text message from the second-year graduate student and will definitely come to his house.

Wait here and I'll explain it to you right away.

By the way, Miyagawa Ling did not forget to send a message to Miyano Akemi, so as not to make her worry: [It has been resolved. ]

Unexpectedly, Miyano Akemi responded immediately: [That's good! Are you not hurt? ]

【no.】

[Are you coming over tonight? Zhu Xingda is still waiting for you here. If you don't come, I'll let him leave. Lingjun, there's no need to rush to test me. If you're too tired or have other plans, don't come over tonight.]

Miyakawa Ling didn't expect that at this point, Morohoshida was still waiting for him.

He had no plans to go to Miyano Akemi's house tonight. Firstly, he had to wait for Matsuda, and secondly, after the meeting, he wanted to talk to Kenji about Zero's recent situation.

However... the point of Zhuxingda is still there...

Miyagawa Ryo felt that he needed to eliminate the hidden danger for Miyano Akemi.

He called Miyano Akemi.

"Ling-jun?" Miyano Akemi was a little surprised.

"Ms. Mingmei, please give the phone to Zhuxingda. I will talk to him."

After a moment of shock, Miyano Akemi understood his intention and smiled gently, "Okay."

"Zhu Xingjun." She turned around and met the man's eager eyes: "Lingjun has something to say to you, please answer the phone."

"Um."

Miyakawa Ling heard a deep male voice. He was inexplicably dazed for a moment, but didn't think much about it.

"Hello, are you the Star Lord?" He spoke with a smile, but it was not a friendly tone. Instead, he used the same dagger-hiding tone that he used when he was in disguise as Magno.

Miyakawa Ling had no intention of making the other party feel that he was easy to get along with. What he wanted was for the other party to know that he was not someone to be trifled with.

"It's me." The voice on the other side was a little hoarse, but every word was spoken slowly and clearly: "I'm Zhu Xingda, who are you?"
