Chapter 162 Conspiracy

The commotion of supernatural powers was completely quelled before dawn.

This incident was a farce caused by the absurd interests of all parties.

As the secret weapon of Japan's Special Forces Department and the one most likely to become Japan's first transcendent, Shibusawa Ryuhiko has always been in secret contact with the Rat of the Dead House.

Fyodor prepared for his next move by casually throwing down some bait. Fish swarmed in and local fish also actively tried to grab a bite of nutrients. The whole Yokohama was like a school of predatory goldfish. The calm atmosphere was like the water surface shattered by gravel, rippling with complicated and chaotic waves.

Perhaps such an environment can be called a natural disaster, but this is the playground that Fyodor carefully designed for Ryuhiko Shibusawa. If the government wants to solve this problem, it will not be able to resist.

So, with the government's permission, Ryuhiko Shibusawa used his supernatural powers unscrupulously, plundering the supernatural power crystals he wanted as if he were at home. His special ability automatically cleansed all the special ability users in Yokohama, and he hired a large number of special ability users to protect himself and resist the attack of the Special Ability Special Agent Department who noticed something was wrong.

But putting aside the tricks and traps of Shibusawa Ryuhiko and the Special Powers Division, Shibusawa Ryuhiko's indiscriminate attacks would definitely harm local people with special powers. The concentration of people with special powers in Yokohama is extremely high, and under his unscrupulous devouring, the strength of Yokohama itself has been greatly weakened. So the third party began to resist.

Among them, the Port Mafia, which has already established itself as the leader of the Yokohama Mafia, will definitely not sit idly by. Mori Ogai is a smart guy. He only needs to think about it to know who is behind this trick. He not only has to show that he is actively fighting against the Yokohama disaster, but also has to earn more nutrients from this disaster to support his own development.

The question is that they don’t know, they try their best.

So, under Dazai Osamu's advance warning, the Port Mafia made preparations including mobilizing an airplane to urgently recall Chuuya Nakahara. In Mori Ogai's enthusiastic plan, Dazai and Chuuya were ordered to capture Shibusawa Ryuhiko alive in exchange for a supernatural business license from the Supernatural Special Agent Division, which was eager to erase their own decision-making mistakes.

It should be noted that this time point was exactly on the eve of Oda Sakunosuke's death. At this time, Dazai Osamu was 18 years old, Oda Sakunosuke had resigned and stayed at home with the secret help of Dazai Osamu, and Sakaguchi Ango had not yet revealed his true colors.

However, Dazai Osamu also thought about whether to tell Mori Ogai about this.

Once he told Mori Ogai, he would definitely formulate such a plan to exchange the supernatural power business licenses. When the plan to suppress Shibusawa Ryuhiko was changed from his plan to the plan to exchange the supernatural power business licenses, it became the organization's plan and the only plan under the nose of the organization's boss, and there was less he could do.

But if he doesn't tell Mori Ogai, the plan will become very troublesome. He can go there alone (or trick Chuuya into coming back and make him work like a slave), but in that case, Shibusawa Ryuhiko will be worthless except for his death, and if the time is delayed too long, it may cause undesirable effects.

All of this resulted in Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya's plan to resolve the incident with lightning speed, thereby shortening Sengenmaku's thinking time.

But the sooner this matter is resolved, the better.

Under the dense network planned by all parties, in the early morning, Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya, who were in the eye of the storm, arrested Shibusawa Ryuhiko and formally confronted the members of the peripheral supernatural special agent department. At the same time, the riot was completely quelled.

Qian Jianmu didn't care how many people died in this incident.

He has more important things to do.

Zero is tracing back to the sender of the email, step by step.

This was not the first time he had looked up information about the Rat in the Dead House. It was useful for this tracing, but not very useful.

Although the Rat of the Dead House is well-known for his hacking skills, Qian Jianmu's technology is destined to be superior to this era. He has maxed out the technology of the old world, and because he found that humans cannot truly create "artificial intelligence", he turned to "pseudo-intelligence". He even lit up the "Creation God" revolution stage in the technology tree based on the technology of "pseudo-intelligence". In short, both he and Zero treat the technology of this world in a crushing manner.

During these two years, there were some frictions between Qian Jianmu and Feodor, and they exchanged offense and defense several times in small-scale confrontations. Fyodor's style is very distinctive, dark, with undercurrents surging beneath the surface and carefully orchestrated organizational conflicts. To be honest, if you are lucky enough to participate, it will be a bit inexplicably romantic and cruel, and Qian Jianmu can clearly judge who is causing the trouble.

It was for this reason that Yukiya cooperated with Fyodor this time. Apart from being a little headache, he did not take it seriously at first. After all, it was not the first time.

Most of the temptations between the two came from Fyodor's own temptations and the temptations from domestic and foreign forces instigated by Fyodor. Qian Jianmu responded so smoothly that he was too lazy to even talk about it. However, the styles of these forces varied. There was even an incident where they broke into the shrine with machine guns, forcing him to call on the shrine's internal armed forces for defense.

It can be said that one third of the source of the crazy work in the past two years came from Fyodor’s tireless temptation and harassment.

Probably because of Yukiya, when Chigenmaku used Zero to trace Fyodor's intelligence, Fyodor, who had anticipated this, deleted the information in a shattered manner in advance. Therefore, Fyodor always keeps a wary eye on him online.

But as long as he came to Yokohama and showed his face, he would no longer be able to escape from Chigenmaku's network in Yokohama.

Yokohama is his kingdom.

Every organization, every person with special abilities, and every suspicious movement here all converge into the overall trend changes of Yokohama. All of them are summarized and reported by the people with special abilities under him and directly embedded into the database in his mind, forming a model that encompasses the entire Yokohama.

Finding someone isn't that difficult.

Killing intent slightly overflowed, he took a deep breath, suppressed the violent emotion, leaving only a gaze as cold and deep as an ancient well.

……calm.

The phone vibrated for a moment.

The look in his eyes, which had just calmed down, suddenly became terrifying.

Ordinary people reappeared in the city of Yokohama as their supernatural powers faded. The great changes in the city caused Yokohama residents to pour out of their houses and the streets began to become crowded.

The street started to become noisy, but he turned a deaf ear to it, just lowered his eyes and touched his forehead with the back of his hand.

Because of his request, in addition to analyzing the location of the sender, Zero is also trying to hack into Yokohama's surveillance and Yokohama's signal station, and even trying to lurk into all mobile phones in Yokohama that are connected to the Internet. He added a million energy points to complete the huge workload, and the result was a sudden increase in body temperature.

An invisible screen appeared before his eyes, and a black triangle logo appeared on the Yokohama map. In addition, different symbols were lit up all over Yokohama. Zero is using limited technology to search inch by inch where Fyodor might be.

After confirming that the program was running, Qian Jianmu turned on his mobile phone. He cast a gloomy look on the screen and gritted his teeth.

…It’s a video.

The video was not short. In it, we could see a slender young man in detective uniform swiftly moving in the alley, and then a masked young man appeared in front of him.

Dress, white cape, top hat.

Then he raised his gun and launched an attack.

This was obviously a user with space-related psychic abilities, who almost trapped Ranpo to death in this space. Ranpo slightly dodged the direction of the bullets, and calmly judged the changes in the environment. However, the next moment, the cloak fell from the sky, and Ranpo's face changed. He lowered his head, and blood was faintly flowing from his arm.

Because he was facing the camera and no longer moving, Chigenmaku was finally able to see Ranpo's lip movements clearly.

Open and close, open and close.

"I see. Even if I can find out the truth, I can't dodge the speed of the bullet. You are quite afraid of my ability." Ranpo raised his lips, his emerald eyes sparkling in the darkness: "Poison...ah, it's poison, the ability of a psychic? A common poison for two people, one must die before the other can live? I see."

The noise around him suddenly stopped, and Qian Jianmu heard the young man's voice:

"Ah, it was you who didn't hide, wasn't it?"

"I already know everything." The usually gentle detective once again showed a determined smile on his face: "Hiding alone will not solve the problem."

"Oh?" The young man in the top hat stretched out his voice, "You're quite interesting... I can let you live, okay? It doesn't matter if I kill that person, I can let you do it, do you want to try it? It's much freer than being a detective!"

The poison took effect, and the detective trembled slightly for a moment. His breathing became rapid, but his eyes became more determined:

"Killing means death."

"...No, it's a freshman!" the young man retorted seriously.

"Yes... All seven attacks failed. We couldn't defeat them head-on, so we had to resort to this method..."

The hat fell to the ground. The detective breathed rapidly, his voice strangely hoarse. He said intermittently:

"But... for people with special abilities, death is equivalent to rebirth. I completely agree with this."

"…What are you talking about? I don't understand!"

However, as if the pain had reached its extreme, the detective fell to the ground, curled up and gasped, like a branch broken by a rainstorm. 】

The picture ends here.

Ranpo has revealed all the information he could.

Chijianmu turned off the video, lowered his head, and quickly switched the screen to provide additional information to Nakai Hideo and Dazai Osamu.

Just hiding won't solve the problem.

Poison, only one can survive out of two people, it is the poison of the person with special abilities.

Killing means death.

But the killing of people with special abilities is rebirth.

Since it is impossible to force it directly, we can only use means.

Ah, so that’s it. It turned out to be such a simple plan, a naked conspiracy.

He walked down the stone bridge and sat down, putting his windbreaker beside him, using the cool breeze of the early morning to take away the heat from his body, and staring at the map in the air.

The phone vibrated again.

"Sir, we found Mr. Ranpo."

"Um."

"He is not in danger of death, but he has fainted for unknown reasons... Doctor Yosano's ability is ineffective."

"Um."

"Dr. Yosano and I will come to you right away. Please send us the latest location if you have it."

"Um."

The phone was hung up.

Chijianmu stared at the river for a while, then raised his phone again. This time it was Dazai Osamu.

"I can't understand it, Baku-kun." Dazai Osamu whispered, "To be able to do such a thing... is a lowly method."

"Xing is also the one who understands this world the most."

"Huh, what are you thinking about?"

"I wonder what would happen if I killed Fyodor, as they wished."

In the end, there was only one dot left on the map in front of him, which was on the rooftop of an office building. It was very close to him but far away from residential areas. It was a suitable place for fighting.

Dazai Osamu's last words were not directed at him, but said extremely coldly:

"Sure enough, the mimic is at the doorstep of Oda Sakunosuke's house. Give me ten minutes."

"I wish you good luck in martial arts."

Qian Jianmu hung up the phone and checked his equipment as he walked.

As luck would have it, he had just returned from the world of sorcery and was still carrying the pistol he was more used to when he was in the organization. It was still full of bullets, so he checked the gun.

He sorted out the current information to Zero:

“There are only three possible outcomes for this matter:

If I kill Fyodor and Ranpo lives, I might live, or something might go wrong.

No one killed Fyodor, the poison exploded, Fyodor and Ranpo died together, and Fyodor's ability took effect on the psychic of the poison, and that psychic had obviously been hidden.

Also, if I let anyone kill Fyodor, and let that person bear Fyodor's special ability, Ranpo can survive, the plan will collapse, and I won't have to kill him. ”

He paused, then smiled inexplicably:

"But Ranpo is a detective. He has people dying for him. What should he do? He said he doesn't want to run away."

Someone died for Ranpo, this kind of thing... let's not have it.

I don't know what Xingye said, maybe he used the computer in his brain or the changes in his pupils to support it. In short, to an outsider, it seemed as if his body and supernatural powers were bound together. They had been playing against each other for so long, testing each other layer by layer, just to prove the relationship between his special abilities and his body. It was really hard to guard against.

The fact that Dazai Osamu's No Longer Human has no effect on the Thousand Makumaku can also be tested.

But Chigenmaku couldn't refute it. His eyes had indeed changed, and Dazai Osamu had no way to stop his special abilities. And he had been preparing to stand in the open in Yokohama in the past two years. If a professional of Fedor's level were to observe this kind of thing carefully, it would basically be obvious.

He could even understand Fyodor.

If Fyodor's ability is to [take away the body of another person due to being 'killed']. Then, under the reality that supernatural powers are bound to the soul in this world, he can only use his supernatural powers to fight again and again, and to die and be resurrected again and again. His supernatural powers have almost no functionality (except that it is difficult for him to die). This supernatural power is his bondage, his shackles, and his only weapon.

But if it is Sengenmaku's body, he will have special abilities bound to his body and will even be immune to Dazai's disqualification from being human.

This is so tempting.

It turns out that the thick fog and unknown peeping of the White Kylin, in addition to clamping down on the three forces, also serve as the final check before the conspiracy begins.

Unfortunately, his eyes had changed, and Lilith's abnormality was obvious to all, which directly confirmed the relationship between the body and supernatural powers.

Fyodor was suspicious and cunning, and he was able to push this matter to this point, which was certainly due to Yukiya's instigation. Chijianmaku even suspected that Yukiya had done something to Fyodor's mind.

It's not a doubt, it's certainty, Xingye must have done something to Fyodor.

Poor Russian, fortunately he has returned to the maximum level and started cheating, who can beat him?

But to be honest, with such a rigorous plan, it's not surprising that such a decision was made.

The port mafia's special agent department was tied up, the detective of the Armed Detective Agency fell into a coma and was mostly paralyzed, the thick fog of the White Kylin made all the special-ability people panic, and the residents went out for refuge in a panic. Ryuhiko Shibusawa easily controlled the powerful forces in Yokohama by himself and cleared the obstacles for him.

Then mimic suddenly attacked at the door of Oda Sakunosuke at this moment. Dazai Osamu could not ignore their fight, and the only hidden danger, Dazai Osamu, was also kicked out.

After thinking about this plan over and over again, I realized that there was nothing unusual except that it was strange that a calm man like Fyodor could do such a thing.

...So, his best friend turned out to be Fyodor? But he doesn't know what he looks like yet.

Both of them were forced into a situation with no way out, and the only instigator was still hiding behind the scenes. He was so amazed.

Dazai Osamu...

Thoughts flowed through his mind in a chaotic yet orderly manner. Qian Jianmu pushed open the balcony door, and the moonlight suddenly poured into the dark corridor.

As he wished, he saw the face of Fyodor, whom he had never seen before due to various coincidences.

The man standing on the edge of the balcony slowly turned his head, his back slightly hunched, his soft black hair a little messy pressed by the thick hat. In the darkness, he seemed to be smiling obscurely, only his purple eyes were particularly dazzling.

"Good evening, Maku-kun."

For some reason, even though the person was a stranger, Qian Jianmu suddenly shuddered.

Eerily familiar.
