"*loading...loading..."
The background of the copy is that the city of Yokohama is temporarily in a period of chaos in its order system.
Players smelled a faint smell of burning gunpowder in the air.
Players are no strangers to this smell.
This can often be felt in the Black Organization's crimes, or in Hayato Gokudera's attitude towards the player in the early stages.
It seemed to hint vaguely at something that had happened in this area not long ago.
On the streets of Yokohama, the player who only needed a pair of sunglasses to perfectly blend in with the local mafia did not find the task bar on his personal panel.
Player: Watch...
Naturally, the NPC will not have a conspicuous exclamation mark above its head, asking players to approach and talk to it.
The player couldn't help but glance a few more times in the direction of a group of mafia who were reorganizing themselves not far away.
Walking in front of the team, the other mafia members, led by him, stopped and turned their heads as if they sensed something. Their clear and sharp eyes accurately caught the source of their gaze.
Ah, look here.
The other party obviously noticed the player's presence and took the initiative to approach her.
As the distance gets closer, players can see more memorable features of each other.
His graying hair was neatly combed back, he wore a monocle, and a black windbreaker that made it easy to tell which side he was in.
If one had not felt the solemnity and murderous aura he carried face to face and up close, one might have associated him with occupations that were more in line with one's temperament, such as butler or deacon.
As the player saw the other person's face clearly, Guangjin Liulang stopped approaching and turned to examine the player.
The player could sense the other person's gaze pausing on her face, as if to confirm something: "...the children nearby?"
The player blinked. "Is there anything I can do to help?"
Guangjin Liulang frowned slightly.
"Master Guangjin, is there anything wrong?"
The player guessed that the other party was not a serious and rigid person when interacting with his subordinates. While Guangjin Liulang was pondering, the mafia behind him also came over one after another, and while asking questions, their eyes swept over the player.
"Eh..." As if seeing a strange phenomenon, he unconsciously made a short rising sound.
Um?
Fushimi Kyoji followed the other person's gaze, looked down at his windbreaker, and then looked at the dark mass of mafia in front of him.
Uh-huh! ?
If you look closely, you can find that there are still subtle differences in the shape of the windbreaker.
"Could it be some kid who idolizes our Port Mafia?" the Mafia members behind Guangjin Liulang whispered to each other. "From a distance, we thought they were from another department."
"Did Lord Guangjin suddenly walk over and mistake him for someone from our port mafia?"
The whispers from the other side suddenly became quieter, just loud enough to make it clear someone was deliberately lowering their voice out of guilt, but not loud enough to prevent others from hearing the content clearly.
"I said that wearing only one pair of prescription glasses would affect your eyesight..."
Guangjin Liulang didn't say anything, and the player noticed that he still hadn't looked away.
So she repeated it again, asking if there was anything she needed to do.
Player: Mission, mission, mission...
“…”
Guangjin Liulang was silent for a while, when the player thought that he had misunderstood the way to accept the task and that the dialogue would not be triggered again.
"You're not going to school anymore at this age?" He said this, but he didn't delve into it or show any strange reaction.
"Please go buy me a pack of cigarettes over there." He handed the cash to the player.
Guangjin Liulang nodded slightly: "The remaining money will be considered as payment for your trouble."
Guangjin Liulang pinched his fingers, took off his gloves and put them away carefully, then reached into his pocket, paused, pushed back the corner he touched, and took out only an old-fashioned copper lighter.
Um……
There is no reminder to accept the task. In what form will the reward for completing the task be distributed?
Players are curious about the changes that are currently being shown.
This is how Ango Sakaguchi encountered the player face to face without any preparation.
"Is there anything I can help with?" The player leaned forward and tried again to accept the task from the NPC in the same way he had done to Guangjin Liulang.
The lenses well concealed Sakaguchi Ango's expression. He quickly scanned the players with his eyes and replied cautiously, "No, I'm not in trouble."
He raised his hand to adjust his glasses, and after completing the subconscious action, he calmly asked, "Did I do something that could cause misunderstanding?"
Fushimi Kyoki said nothing and pointed at Sakaguchi Ango.
——To be precise, it was Ango Sakaguchi’s glasses.
Being pointed at rudely with an index finger, Sakaguchi Ango subconsciously raised his hand and pushed the frame of his glasses.
At Sakaguchi Ango's action, the lens flashed a momentary light.
"That's it."
Fushimi Kyoji gestured in the direction she was coming from: "I saw the reflection of glasses in the distance..."
I thought it was a hint or something...
A fleeting look of surprise crossed Sakaguchi Ango's face. He took off his glasses and agreed in a very light voice, "Sometimes it does cause some inconvenience."
He smiled amiably again. "But my work is usually clerical, and glasses are an essential item in my life."
"For example?"
After the player asked the question, he exclaimed, "Ah!" and then suddenly answered, "I see. It's not convenient to eat sukiyaki with glasses."
Moisture will accumulate on the lenses.
"...As you can see, I don't think I need any help. Is there anything else I can help you with?" Sakaguchi Ango asked calmly.
The player blinked, subtly sensing the other party's reluctance to talk further. "Hey, one more question."
"Where can I buy Marlboro cigarettes?"
Entering the new copy save file, only a pitifully small area is lit up on the map, and the rest needs to be explored slowly by the player.
According to the intelligence level of the characters that can be conquered in the game, the player chose a more direct and simple approach.
Sakaguchi Ango: Who is helping whom now...
"Just follow the direction I told you, and you'll see the store." Sakaguchi Ango let out a controlled breath, his eyes once again glancing over the eye-catching windbreaker as he casually asked, "No offense, but, you want to buy cigarettes...?"
"Judging from his appearance, he's probably not old enough to smoke," Sakaguchi Ango said. Then, as if realizing belatedly, he smiled. "...But maybe that doesn't apply to the Port Mafia."
"Could it be that the Port Mafia has a monopoly on Yokohama's trench coats?" the player asked quietly.
This is the second person who thinks the player is part of the Port Mafia.
"As for the cigarettes, Mr. Guangjin from the Port Mafia asked me to buy them." The player showed him the money in his hand.
Sakaguchi Ango's eyes flickered slightly behind his glasses, but he didn't reply with the rest of the sentence. "It might have something to do with the impression the Port Mafia leaves on people. When I'm choosing clothes, I subconsciously avoid styles that give off a strong sense of déjà vu."
"Will we get into trouble?" the player was curious.
The people I met, such as Guangjin Liulang, were quite friendly.
Sakaguchi Ango analyzed the facts: "In general, wearing it will reduce more troubles than it will cause."
"That's alright." The player waved at him, "Thank you, and bye."
The figure turned away without any regret and disappeared at the end of the corner through the microcosm of the lenses. He adjusted the frame of his glasses, and the reflection flashed quickly from the round-frame glasses.
…
I closed the beginner's guide, but it still exists, right?
Just in a less conspicuous way.
Holding the cigarettes he bought, Fushimi Kyoji thought silently in his heart.
The store where you can buy cigarettes is just a few hundred meters away.
"Is there anything else I can do?" The player asked eagerly after handing the cigarette to Guangjin Liulang.
Guangjin Liulang's gaze fell calmly on the face of the person in front of him, as if he was observing the role that the player could play.
"Then please go back and tell the doctor at the black clinic that everything went well and the planned surgery can be canceled." Guangjin Liulang pondered, "He will give you the prepared items."
"What's the doctor's name?" the player asked curiously.
"Mori Ougai."
