Chapter 4: You Can’t Just Bring Someone Home (Revised)

In fact, three years have passed since Akiyama Sou pushed open the door of her boss's house and truly became Akiyama Sou.

The introduction of Akiyama Kanade in [Character Generator] is very simple.

An orphan who grew up in the organization, an experimental subject of the organization, and an artificial weapon produced by the organization.

The background is very interesting. Akiyama Souji went to report to his boss excitedly, and then he was thrown into the research institute.

Real life is different from the few short lines of introduction in the [Character Generator]. When he comes back to life as Akiyama Kanade, those fictional past events become real.

Every day, he is surrounded by a group of people in white coats, sealed in a bedroom with glass windows like a showcase, and receives regular drug injections. Occasionally, he is taken out for a walk to test the effects of the drugs.

The organization has a very important experimental project - to completely transform the human body, and physical strength is a very important part of it. For this purpose, the organization is trying to research physical strength enhancement drugs.

The best experimental subjects for drugs are orphans like Akiyama Kanade who grew up in the organization.

There is no past, no future, no ties connecting him.

You can fall into dust at any time.

Akiyama Kanade didn't care what experiments those people in white coats were doing on him. He was originally a dead man, and as long as he didn't remove the [artificial heartbeat sticker], his vital signs would remain.

The white coats will never get real data on him. No matter how many drugs he is injected with, it will be useless.

The only thing that surprised Akiyama Sou was that as an artificial weapon of the organization, he had to undergo a lot of physical training, combat training and firearms training every day.

Akiyama Kanade, who was originally worried that his image would collapse before he could even accomplish his goal, found himself like a fish in water when he picked up the gun and was able to beat people with ease.

Back in the glass room, Akiyama Kanade buried his head in the quilt and felt depressed for a long time.

He tried hard to recall what he had done in his life and whether he had done anything illegal or criminal.

It’s strange that his memories of life have become blurred not long after his death.

However, Akiyama Kanade still firmly believed that he was an ordinary male high school student, because he clearly remembered that he was staying up late to memorize and prepare for the entrance examination to Toudou University before his death.

With such ambition, there is no way he could be a reserve member of a criminal gang.

Later, because the life of an experimental subject was too boring, Akiyama Kanade left behind a "spare body", created a new pseudonym and went out to hang out.

【Backup Warehouse】

Everyone has times when they feel that their body is not enough. The Spare Body Warehouse is dedicated to serving you. The spare bodies produced by this warehouse can achieve the same effect as the main body in appearance. The main body can always feel the status of the spare body and control the actions of the spare body.

ps: Our company is still improving the technology, the language and demeanor of the backup body are slightly stiffer than the main body. There was a sea king who was discovered because of this and was chased by someone, so users must be careful.

By the time Akiyama Kanade built his third vest, the experimental subject Cherry Brandy was finally released from the research institute.

The organization sent him to the United States, where internal unrest was raging. He was like a domesticated vicious dog, and he went wherever the organization told him to.

His notoriety spread far and wide.

However, no one knew that the vicious dog that caused the trouble was just a backup body of Akiyama Kanade. No one in the organization really cared about him, so no one noticed that the backup body was slightly stiffer than the real person.

But it was normal that no one noticed. Akiyama Kanade himself couldn't tell the difference between the backup body and himself.

This technology is already mature.

When Akiyama Kanade used the third vest wave, Cherry Brandy's position in the organization was also rising. The organization was so afraid of traitors, but they were very confident in Cherry Brandy because he became dependent on a certain drug of the organization when he was a test subject.

Like drugs, he has to take medicine regularly to survive.

This is the conclusion drawn by those white coats. Akiyama Kanade doesn't understand the principle behind it, but he admires it very much. Thanks to this, he has a golden ticket to immortality in the organization, and no one will suspect that he is an undercover or a traitor.

Holding a life in the hands of a vicious dog really makes people feel at ease. Moreover, this vicious dog has the characteristic of being immortal, which makes it more useful than any weapon.

The idea of ​​being invincible is a misunderstanding.

Because strictly speaking, Akiyama Kanade is already dead, the fact that he still breathes and has a heartbeat is just the effect of the [artificial heartbeat sticker]. The wounds on his body will only last for a short time, no matter how serious the wound is, it will heal quickly, and he can't feel any pain at all.

He was still trying to come up with an excuse, but he didn't expect that everyone regarded his recovery ability as the result of an experiment and accepted it very smoothly.

Then throw more dangerous and life-threatening tasks at him.

Akiyama Kanade occasionally showed up to report, but most of the time he let the reserve do the work. He was a good vest, but he did nothing serious and just worked for the organization.

Just when Akiyama Kanade wanted to give up this pseudonym, things took a turn for the better.

This all starts with an item called the Soul Purity Tester.

【Soul Purity Tester】

Open this product to detect the purity of the soul.

After his death, Akiyama Kanade became a supermarket salesperson. He had to sell enough goods to be resurrected and go home.

He once thought that no matter who it was, as long as it was sold, it would be counted as sales, so he went to the streets to promote it, and even "visited" the Metropolitan Police Department several times because of his swagger. Until he found out that not everyone's soul can be used for shopping.

The product description clearly states: This store only accepts valid souls as general equivalents.

At first, Akiyama Kanade didn't realize the meaning of these words until he found a [Soul Purity Tester] in the warehouse, and then he discovered that the soul purity between people was so different.

If a person's soul purity is too low, they will not be able to pay enough to purchase goods.

He must find specific people with high enough soul purity and make them willing to buy in order to complete the sales mission.

This is also the fundamental reason why Akiyama Kanade chose to create a vest and create his own demand.

Instead of looking for customers with a high enough soul purity who happen to be willing to buy, it is better to find people with a high enough soul purity and then force them to generate demand and become customers.

Because Cherry Brandy was trapped in the research institute, Akiyama Kanade had to open a new vest to look for a suitable candidate.

There are currently three items for sale on the shelf: [Resurrection Water], [Miracle Medicine for All Diseases], and [Kill the Twins].

He has already found suitable customers for the latter two, but the first one has yet to be found.

Until he met Bourbon.

The third alias he created was Gin's twin brother. He was the younger brother and Gin was the older brother. While diligently looking for trouble for his brother, Akiyama Kanade paid attention to Bourbon, a member of the organization who was not very popular with Gin.

According to the test of the [Soul Purity Tester], the soul purity of Bourbon is higher than that of Gin.

When considering whether to target Bourbon, Akiyama Kanade tracked and investigated the opponent for a while, but Bourbon was very vigilant and he did not get much information in the end.

But it was not all bad.

During one of his stalking, Toru Amuro saved a little girl who was nearly hit by a car. The situation was extremely critical. Toru Amuro fell to the side of the road holding the little girl. Even if he was 0.1 second late, both of them would have been hit and thrown away.

When he stood up, Toru Amuro smiled and touched the little girl's head soothingly.

Because of this incident, he finally added Bourbon to his customer list.

Although the soul is pure, if he is a person without any conscience, there is no need to waste time on him.

Because the first item that Akiyama Sou wants to sell is [Revitalizing Water], this thing can only be used by others. People who don't have a spirit of sacrifice will certainly not be willing to buy this thing, so Akiyama Sou naturally doesn't need to bother with such people.

Bourbon, a mixed-race young man who lives in darkness but still retains a bit of kindness, is simply the perfect customer.

However, considering that the other party is a member of the organization after all, and still has a ruthless nature, Akiyama Sou thought about it and decided that it would be most appropriate to approach him in the identity of Cherry Brandy.

His plan to sell the [Resurrection Water] was very simple. First, he used this alias to become close friends with Toru Amuro. Second, he made Toru Amuro believe in the existence of the Resurrection Water. Finally, he let the alias die in front of him, and then he transformed himself into a god to promote the [Resurrection Water].

It's a bit immoral, but there's nothing we can do about it. It's business.

Coincidentally, the organization's vicious dog was recalled to the country, so Cherry Brandy and Bourbon had their first official meeting.

Although Akiyama Kanade had known him for a long time before they met.

And I have been looking forward to meeting him for a long time.

But Bourbon seemed to be more defensive than he thought.

Although she had made dinner for him out of kindness, when Akiyama Kanade wanted to take a bath with Bourbon in a yukata, she ruthlessly kicked him out of the bathroom, glared at him, and asked coldly, "What are you doing?"

The brown-haired young man blinked innocently, his red eyes misty, "Let's take a shower together. I heard that good friends always take a shower together."

Although they are not good friends yet, maybe they will become so after a while.

Bourbon responded by closing the bathroom door and locking it in disbelief.

Akiyama Kanade sighed quietly outside the door, aggrieved, "...Isn't it possible that I'm considered a pervert?"
