Chapter 363: Encountering Jingzi, the players posted this...
This careless chase ended with the player accidentally bumping into a green dot NPC.
"Sorry, are you okay...eh?" The player who had helped her up and was about to ask about her condition said in surprise after seeing the expression on her face, "It's Jingzi? Why are you here?"
The short-haired girl named Akiko straightened the slightly crooked butterfly hair accessory on her hair, got up from the ground nimbly, and prepared to give this blind guy a good eye treatment.
But after seeing who had caused him so much trouble, his anger subsided at a visible speed until it disappeared.
"It's Chiyo." Yosano Akiko raised an eyebrow at the black-haired girl who often came to the Armed Detective Agency. "It feels like I haven't seen you for a long time. You look a little strange now."
It was no secret within the Armed Detective Agency that this mysterious yet renowned Port Mafia leader frequently visited. According to Mr. Ranpo, this young Port Mafia leader sought to recruit all the members of the Armed Detective Agency into her service, and so he made himself known there.
However, despite what Mr. Ranpo said, every time Kamigami Chiyo came to "visit", Yosano Akiko could see Mr. Ranpo and her getting along happily. In addition, the president's attitude in this regard was also very strange. Over time, Yosano Akiko did not take this matter to heart. Instead, as they got along better and better, they became good female friends.
Meeting Chiyo on this road is quite a rare thing.
"Hey, did you miss me~~" The player's eyes curved, and he moved decisively closer to Yosano Akiko, getting close to her. "I miss Akiko so much, too. I'm going to visit the Armed Detective Agency tomorrow!"
"Ranpo must miss me too!" said the player very confidently.
"Well, I can't answer your question for Mr. Ranpo." Yosano Akiko resisted the enthusiastic black-haired girl. While repacking the scattered medicine on the ground, she chatted idly with Kamikami Chiyo. "So, why did you suddenly appear here, and you looked so hurried?"
"Ah, this..." The player's face froze. Oh no, he forgot that he was now avoiding Reborn's pursuit.
But he hasn't taken any action yet, so he must have agreed.
The player, feeling at ease again at the thought, subconsciously straightened his back. "I'm here to guide the friends who are visiting Yokohama for the first time. Where's Akiko?"
"You look very formal today."
Although she was still wearing a white shirt and a black long skirt, she had added a white coat and a mask with signs of use hanging around her ears. Even the manicure she had done on a whim had long since been removed.
"Well... this is all thanks to you, Chiyo." Yosano Akiko tied up her hair at the temples, and a bold and confident smile appeared at the corner of her lips, looking completely calm.
"Me?" The player pointed at himself in confusion.
"Of course." Yosano Akiko gestured to the black-haired girl to look at the medical kit in her hand. "As for my clothes today...it's because I was just doing a free clinic nearby, so it's more convenient to wear this."
With the help of Edogawa Ranpo, she joined the relevant organization set up by Kamikami Chiyo in Leibo Street under a fake identity. However, she looked too young, so she had to modify her appearance to make herself look like an adult.
There are people pursuing violence in Leibo Street, and there are also people struggling to survive... Although she was a little confused at the beginning, she was of great use without using her special abilities.
Unexpectedly, the painful past brought by that old man Mori Ogai actually provided her with a lot of help...
Thinking of the man with the venomous eyes again, Yosano Akiko sneered and tightened her grip on the suitcase handle. She was no longer the same person she used to be. If that Mori Ogai guy dared to appear before her again, she would cut him open with a saw! Cut him into pieces a hundred times!
"So you're going to the free clinic? Jingzi is amazing!" The player, who possessed only a limited medical skill, looked at the NPC wearing a butterfly hair accessory with sparkling eyes. "Studying medicine sounds tiring, but Jingzi has mastered it so quickly?!"
This is so powerful!
“I’m still trying to learn the theory, but I’ve already practiced it many times.”
"Well, this is all thanks to a man who became bald at a young age." Not knowing what she was thinking about, Yosano Akiko's face became gloomy, and a raging fire appeared behind her that seemed to be able to burn the players.
The player tilted his head, feeling that Yosano Akiko's gritted teeth look was somewhat familiar.
"Don't talk about me. Didn't you say you were a tour guide? What about the members of your tour group?" Yosano Akiko raised an eyebrow and reminded, "Although this place has been cleaned up, there are still many thugs. Be careful."
"Ah, I accidentally got rid of them just now, but they should catch up soon." The player straightened his messy hair and was not very worried about their safety.
After all, like Princess Xiaoye, they are capable of maximizing destructive power against buildings - not to mention against people.
Once the plan is complete and the player wants to demolish Leibo Street, he just needs to invite these guys to visit Yokohama again.
The player touched his chin thoughtfully, thinking that this was a good idea that would save time and effort.
**
"Aurora—"
The shouts from behind attracted the player's attention. The player turned around and saw that it was Tsunayoshi Sawada and others who were left far behind by the player and Reborn.
Reborn, who had disappeared behind the player at some point, was flying in the aircraft that Len had transformed into, looking particularly comfortable among a group of anxious teenagers.
"Here, here!" The player waved his hand. Seeing them stop sweating profusely, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. "What's wrong with you? You look so tired."
"You... you still have the nerve to ask!" Gokudera Hayato panted, straightened up, and said unhappily, "You said you would be our tour guide, and now you've disappeared again!"
"Damn it! If you make the Tendaime worry again, I'll..."
"Huh? Aren't you worried about me?" the player asked casually. "After all, we formed a deep friendship because of bone skin soup!"
"What deep friendship? Who would worry about a woman like you?" Gokudera Hayato was like a cat encountering something incredible, his fur instantly exploded. "But at least tell me where you're going!"
"Yes, Aurora." Sawada Tsunayoshi nodded, his big honey-colored eyes full of worry, "Reborn said this place is very dangerous, so it's better to be careful."
"...Tsunayoshi-kun, is it possible that Reborn chased me this far?" The player silently pointed at the culprit, his eyes narrowed, and he grumbled, "And then, while running, I lost my way and happened to run into a good friend I hadn't seen in a while, so we chatted for a while."
Player: "Really? Can't you be a little nicer to people who have trouble finding their way?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "It's rare to find someone as directionally challenged as you, Aurora!"
Player: "No one's perfect... Tsunayoshi-kun used to be afraid of Chihuahuas! How can you say that about me!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "What? How did you know that?!"
Hayato Gokudera: "The Tenth Generation is not arguing with a puppy. Aurora, you don't understand the Tenth Generation's greatness at all!"
Yamamoto Takeshi: "Oh, so you guys are playing the merit game? It sounds interesting."
Ryohei Kawahara: "Join in as much as you can!"
It seems that Hayato Gokudera is trying to save face for Tsunayoshi Sawada, but in fact, he has given strong verification to what the player said... Tsunayoshi Sawada covered his face in shame.
…
…
In the end, it was Reborn who stopped the meaningless quarrel.
"Alright, you two are the same," Reborn snorted coldly. After putting Len away, he stepped firmly on Yamamoto Takeshi's shoulder and landed smoothly. "You can't even correct this little problem of getting lost. You really need to improve. Aurora, and stupid Tsuna, you are still afraid of Chihuahuas even now. You have no excuse."
Player: “…”
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "..."
The player and Sawada Tsunayoshi subconsciously glanced at Reborn, then turned their heads abruptly under his emotionless gaze and patted their chests simultaneously.
"Reborn, come on, why did you say this in front of so many people..." Sawada Tsunayoshi grabbed his soft hair in pain.
Eh——, it really is the terrifying demon king!
"Damn it, I feel inexplicably afraid of being caught by the teacher." A player who shared the same opinion muttered to himself and subconsciously grabbed Yosano Akiko's arm.
"These are your friends. They look lively." Yosano Akiko looked thoughtfully at the group of distinctive young men before her. The knowledge she gained on the battlefield made her keenly aware of the smell of gunpowder. "But why haven't I heard you mention them before?"
"Because they weren't in Yokohama before, this time they came here as a group to play, and I happened to have time, so I came to be their tour guide."
Faced with Yosano Akiko's soul-searching questioning, the player remained calm and composed, getting through it with a cute smile, "After all, they are still students—"
"What do you mean by after all... Aurora, aren't you also a student of Namimori Junior High School?" Sawada Tsunayoshi complained with his half-moon eyes wide open. "Last time, Senior Hibari came to ask where you were going."
God knows how terrified he looked when he saw Senior Yun Que at his bedroom window!
"Huh? I've been absent from class for so long, and I haven't been expelled yet?"
"Hibari-senpai said that in Namimori, his words are the rules..."
"So domineering—then just tell him that I've inherited a 100 billion yuan inheritance and am planning to drop out of school to expand the family business!"
"Don't ask me to talk about this kind of thing! I'll definitely get beaten up if I do!"
"whee."
"...You really are kidding me, Aurora!"
"So you're still in school, Chiyo." Yosano Akiko was silent for a long time, then said in an incredulous tone, "Do you really have enough time?"
"Time is something you can squeeze into it," the player said, tossing his hair nonchalantly and making a startling statement. "I usually go to bed at two and wake up at six, which gives me twenty hours a day to use."
Besides, before the game merged the worlds, players didn't have to take care of both the Port Mafia and the Fantasy Family like they do now; they had to run around Yokohama and Tokyo, while also paying attention to the situation in Namimori; they had to pay attention to the market in East Asia, but couldn't ignore the development in Italy; they had to cultivate relationships with people here, but couldn't favor one over the other and ignore the other side... Should we be glad that only one copy world was merged?
"But I seem to be really busy." The player thought for a moment and sighed.
"She has only just come to this realization now?" Everyone was shocked.
————————
Once again acting as an introducer, the player has become very skilled. After knowing that the other party is a doctor, Sawada Tsunayoshi developed an inexplicable respect for him, and Yosano Akiko also realized the extraordinary identities of these young people from their introductions.
But if it's Aurora's friend, there shouldn't be any big problems.
so……
Yosano Akiko looked at the shy purple-haired girl in front of her, her mind full of thoughts, and she was reluctant to let go of her hand.
Yosano Akiko touched her wrist hesitantly, pausing deliberately at certain places. Although her pulse was very stable, she always felt that something was wrong.
"You... are weird..."
Chrom blinked, and under the short-haired girl's gaze, he carefully tried to pull his hand away, but to no avail. He was also annoyed because the other party was Aurora's good friend, so he didn't want to use illusion, so he had to remain in this stalemate.
It was a long time until Hayato Gokudera became a little impatient and wanted to pull them apart, then Yosano Akiko let go.
"I'm Yosano Akiko, a good friend of Chiyo's. Hello." Yosano Akiko stroked the butterfly hair accessory on her head, put down the mobile phone she had been holding in her hand, took out a business card from her bag and handed it to her.
"I'm Chrom Skull, a good friend of... Miss Aurora. Hello." Chrom glanced at Tsunayoshi Sawada, and with the other's encouraging gaze, he took the business card handed to him by Akiko Yosano, and handed over a business card of the same type except for the name and address.
"Chrom Skull... quite an interesting name." Yosano Akiko chuckled. "I don't know your true identity, but since you're a good friend of Chiyo's, I'm willing to take action on your behalf."
"If you need anything, come find me at this address."
Even if she was thanking the current Port Mafia leader for helping her, who was completely different from her predecessors, even though she was a member of the mafia, but she had always been moving Yokohama towards a better future, even if she was unaware of it, her actions were undoubtedly...
I hope my choice is not wrong, but why would Mr. Ranpo send such a message?
Yosano Akiko walked away with a puzzled look on her face, leaving the player alone to be interrogated by Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others.
"What does that woman mean?!"
"I totally don't understand!"
"Miss Aurora..."
"Aurora..."
The player, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the noise, rubbed his head. Finding himself caught in a dilemma, he couldn't help but sigh. "Although Jingzi must have tacitly agreed to this, but... you're surrounding me like this, do you want me to tell you why in front of everyone?!"
"This is a secret that requires an oath before I can reveal it to you! You can't do that so casually!"
"In that case..."
"Without further delay, let's return to the Port Mafia now." Reborn made the final decision.
