Chapter 258 Three Villains
At this time, Akae Nayue was leaning on the back seat of the Porsche, with the black cat boss who had helped him destroy the small fish dry (locator) lying on his thigh. He seemed not to feel the dangerous atmosphere that was gradually solidifying in the car. Under Gin's gaze, he smoothed the black cat's fur.
Vodka, who was sitting in the driver's seat, could guarantee that he was sweating profusely under his hat. He couldn't help but admire Kaluuya for being able to provoke his big brother under such circumstances.
“…Drive.”
Gin's reaction was different from what Vodka expected. He was not angry, nor did he have any special expression. He just had the same impatient tone as when he first asked Kalua about the locator. Apart from that, he seemed not surprised at all that Kalua lost the locator.
Being stared at by his elder brother, Vodka quickly put away the random thoughts in his mind and started the car.
Chi Jiang Na Yue, who was sitting in the back, saw the performance of these two people. He easily suppressed the urge to laugh out loud and almost kindly explained to Vodka.
Gin knows this? Of course he does.
Akae Nazuki landed in this world in early April. It was already mid-August, and the summer technical competition of the police academy had ended. He and Gin had been partners for almost four months during the time when Vodka was transferred abroad.
Of course, that's Gin's perspective.
After leaving the previous world, Chi Jiang Na Yue originally wanted to return to the main world and be honest for a while, because he considered that Sharon and the others probably also dreamed that he voluntarily got locked up in the dungeon... Well, he is very self-conscious.
It was just that [Shu] told him with embarrassment that a little accident had happened. For some reason, the progress bar of the destruction of one of the worlds suddenly jumped forward like crazy as if it had been accelerated four times. In at most an hour, it would completely collapse.
The savior, who was forced to work overtime again, sighed and hurried over with the information. As a result, he found that not only was he not dropped to the anchor point next to Furuya Rei, but in front of him was Karasuma Renya, who looked like he had just died ten minutes ago.
Look, the body is still warm.
Whipping a corpse? ...Although he was really interested in this proposal, the situation in this world was much more important than Karasuma Renya's corpse, so Akae Nazuki regretfully gave up on torturing the old man to death and buried his head in reading the data to decide the script of this world before the world collapsed.
The situation is urgent. He must make at least three people acknowledge that he is 'Chijiang Nayue' within an hour, otherwise this world will really be over.
A few minutes later, after reading the relevant information about this world, Chijiang Nayue raised his head again in confusion. He roughly understood why this place was so fragile that it would be destroyed in an hour.
This world line has been restarted.
However, since everything will be erased after the world line is restarted, there is no information related to the restart in the data. Akajinazuki simply analyzed some details that did not match the numbers and came up with this intelligence.
The time he landed was exactly the first day of the police academy, which means that in this world, he suddenly went back to drop out of the police academy on the first day of the school year for some unknown reason. In the afternoon after dropping out, he returned to Karasuma Renya and killed her, and then chose to commit suicide standing at the place where he landed.
Yes, in this world he committed suicide.
Combined with the information from the previous restart, Akajinazuki suspected that he in this world probably had the memories before the restart, so he did things that seemed very abrupt compared to the original, such as suddenly dropping out of school and committing suicide immediately after revenge.
Let's just call him 'Little A' here. What Chijiang Nayue cares more about is what Little A experienced in the world before the restart, and another guess he has no evidence for now.
The savior sighed again: Anyway, let’s stabilize the world first, and we can worry about the other things later.
In order to ensure the achievement of the goal, Akajinazuki used her supernatural powers to arrange the scene while the old man's body was still stiff, pretending that the old man was still alive, and called Gin, Vermouth and Rum who were also on standby in the manor.
Then he fabricated the illusion that Karasuma Renya was planning to pass the throne to him, and with the confused but cooperative look of his mother Sharon, he successfully fooled Gin.
As for Rum, to be honest, Chijiang Nayue, who had just dealt with Rum in the last world, didn't want to play with Rum again for the time being, so this time he simply hypnotized and controlled Rum.
Who cares what Rum thinks? Once he is controlled, he will become his puppet.
Based on Xiao A's movements, Chi Jiang Na Yue judged that after this world line was restarted, he returned to the first day of school at the police academy, which was also the same day he landed in this world and Xiao A committed suicide.
Chi Jiang Na Yue knew very well that he had different meanings in each world, so it was impossible for him to return to the first day of school after the restart just by coincidence. It could only be because the restart of the world line was related to his group of nemesis friends.
So Akae Nayue calculated with his fingers and decided to let [Shu] put himself back to four months later, which was a week before he met Hagiwara Kenji and others. He judged that by then the police academy would have resolved Hiro's emotional knot, and their bond would have been strengthened to a sufficient level, making it convenient for him to implement the next plan.
At the same time, in order to ensure that this world would not shatter when he pulled the time bar, Akajinazuki diligently released the puppet classmate.
Yes, that's right, the one who has been a real partner with Gin for four months is actually Akae Nazuki's puppet!
Akae Nazuki was not very clear about the differences between his personality in this world and his own, so for the sake of safety, he set a behavioral logic for the puppet, such as "not to be found by anyone during non-mission period".
Now seeing that Gin has become accustomed to the puppets' coming and going without a trace, Akae Nayue can probably guess what kind of character she is in Gin's eyes now.
The future successor of the BOSS, a partner with strong abilities but a bad and cold personality, and most importantly, he is gone.
When Akae was released four months later, among the communications left behind pretending that the BOSS was still alive, there was an email address that received an application from Gin. Coincidentally, the content of Gin's application to the BOSS was to [install a locator on Kalua].
The reason Gin gave was that Kalua had been missing for a whole week, but he was worried about letting Kalua, who had power second only to the boss in the organization, run around in Tokyo.
After receiving the application, Akae Nazuki looked at the mobile phone screen deeply for a while, then happily agreed to Gin's request in the identity of Karasuma Renya.
There is no conflict between the boss agreeing to Gin putting a locator on Kalua and Kalua trying to destroy the locators.
Nazuki Akae was sitting in the black vintage car, looking out the window. She had been feeling heavy-hearted the entire day since she deduced the truth from Kenji Hagiwara's dream last night, but now she was feeling surprisingly good.
There are only two months left until graduation, everyone.
He reached out and drew a small smiley face on the car window glass without paying any attention to anyone.

In the middle of the night, the crisp sound of a mouse clicking could be heard from inside the slightly ajar door of the data room.
Fūya Rei was sitting in front of a computer with the screen on, flipping through the database attentively.
He didn't know why, but after he came back, his desire to explore the strange boy he met today became stronger and stronger. He instinctively and urgently wanted to know more about the other party, and he always had a feeling that "time was running out".
It was for this reason that he sneaked out after turning off the lights, intending to look up relevant intelligence and information in the database.
As police academy students, they are actually half police officers, so even if they have only the lowest level of permissions in the police database, they are at a level that can access most of the information.
However, after flipping through the pages for half an hour, Furuya Rei had to admit the reality: nothing, nothing at all.
It would be better to say that there is actually information related to A, but those all require high-level permissions to view. He does not have the authority and does not even know A's real name.
Fūya Rei let out a depressed breath and tapped the table twice with his fingertips.
However, at least he could tell that A's identity was not as simple as it seemed. How could someone who dropped out of school on the first day leave such highly confidential information in the police database?
My thoughts stopped here.
He rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache from his own speculation.
Recently, Furuya Rei was in contact with the public security, and the other side had hinted him something, so when faced with A's special situation, Furuya Rei subconsciously associated it with that side.
What a coincidence...A's identity is kept secret at the level of a public security undercover agent.
Furiya Ling couldn't help but think in that direction again: If he was an undercover agent, then dropping out of school right after entering school seems to be an explanation? After all, judging from the face of A Si, if he really went undercover, he would need to create a sign to separate himself from the police, and dropping out of school is the easiest way.
But it was obvious that these were all speculations by Rei Furuya. Apart from the hidden data, he could not find any evidence at all. He could only reluctantly turn off the computer in the data room with a lot of questions in his mind.
After all, I still need to know A's real name the next time I meet him, so that I can go to the instructor to get more information, right? Furuya Rei thought.
Well, he was probably overthinking about the undercover agent. A didn't even try to hide his encounter with them and even hung around the police academy. Whose undercover agent is so arrogant?
Finally, Furutani Rei yawned and left the data room, but when he was about to go back to the dormitory to sleep, he noticed that there seemed to be someone sitting on a bench next to the cherry tree under the dormitory building, enjoying the breeze.
The other person was leaning back in the chair without moving. The moonlight could not illuminate his back, causing the dark scene to look a bit like the set of a horror movie, which scared Rei Furutani.
...the patrol teacher? Or a classmate who stays up late at night like him?
Fūya Rei looked up at the sky in confusion and confirmed that although there were no clouds tonight, there were no stars to be seen.
Is this the moon?
He frowned and chose to walk closer to take a look, but the other party seemed not to hear him approaching and continued to sit there blankly. It was not until Furiya Rei walked around to the front of the man that he could see the face clearly.
"Squad leader?!" Fūya Reicho called out the other party's identity in a low voice in surprise.
The person sitting on the bench was actually the squad leader Ida Kou, who was usually very well-behaved and would not lead any nighttime activities. He looked very depressed and distraught.
Furuya Rei thought about it, and somehow added in his mind: It's exactly the same as Hagiwara Kenji this morning.
