Chapter 25



Nakahara Chuuya muttered, "No way... I just took a sip of wine and I'm hallucinating? I actually saw that guy from Ryoumiya. Should I go to the shrine tomorrow to purify the evil spirits?"

"No, that's not right. You are not him. You look much younger than him, like an underage kid." Nakahara Chuuya denied his answer the next second and breathed a sigh of relief, "I was wondering how I could -"

The very familiar boy reached out and took the notebook, saying unhappily, "You are not! I am Suzumiya Kazuki."

He was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly responded: "Eh? Who are you? Why is my notebook here with you? You even know my name."

This skill of turning the tables is similar to what someone else did.

Nakahara Chuuya looked at this familiar face and almost couldn't resist the urge to slap him. He said angrily, "Why should I ask who you are? Why did you suddenly come to my house?"

"You picked up my notebook, didn't you? What do you mean by touching someone else's things?" The boy pretended to be in deep thought, and suddenly realized, "Oh - taking something without asking, that's stealing, tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to be a person you can't judge by appearance."

"You idiot, I spent so much money on this--"

"Well, these are just small things. I forgive you." The young man said to himself. His look of not taking others seriously almost made Nakahara Chuuya's veins bulge.

"Who on earth are you——"

"I am Suzumiya Kazuki." Suzumiya Kazuki, who looks like a high school student, said seriously, "But if you want me to prove it, I can't remember why I'm called this name, but anyway, this is my name."

"Wait."

Nakahara Chuuya stood up, holding his chin with his hand and carefully looking at the strange guy in front of him.

The slanting, cool moonlight shone in through the window, shining on the two of them and also on the beige sheets.

The notebook in the boy's hand left a rectangular black shadow on the bed, and the person who should have been more conspicuous was like a mirage in the desert, leaving only a clean area.

"Hiss - I seem to have discovered something incredible." Nakahara Chuuya murmured, "Could it be that the guy went out as an undercover agent and got screwed?"

"You're such a weird person." Suzumiya Kazuki said with emotion, "I don't know you, but I want to say - dwarf?"

"You newbie, sparrow dumpling!" Nakahara Chuuya got furious and punched him subconsciously.

There was a loud "bang" and a hole appeared on the originally clean and flat bed board.

The boy, who had only moved the notebook and not moved at all, yawned slightly and said innocently, "The bed is broken. It seems I need to buy a new one. It's really not frugal to waste money like this."

Can I still be immune to physical attacks after becoming a ghost?

Nakahara Chuuya took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down. He said, "Hey, Suzumiya, what happened?"

"Ah, you mistook me for someone else." Suzumiya Kazuki said bluntly, "But it doesn't matter what I tell you. I just want you to help me find someone."

So, is this the colleague who was killed while undercover or is he really just a stranger?

What are you trying to do with him?

Zhongyuan Zhongye made a somewhat anxious "tsk" sound, but still said patiently: "You tell me first."

"What is this place called?"

"Ah, xx Street xx Apartment."

"Are you an idiot? Who asked you that?" the boy complained, "This city."

Nakahara Chuuya felt his blood pressure once again return to the time when he was with Dazai Osamu, he gritted his teeth and said: "Since you are not that guy, why do you still sound like you deserve a beating - this is Yokohama!"

"Oh, I haven't heard of it." Suzumiya Kazuki said, "I used to live in Tokyo. I went to Hisayama Junior High School in junior high school, and then..."

"Later?"

"I don't remember." Ryoumiya Kazuki said bluntly, "Okay, I'm done, you should help me find someone." Nakahara Chuuya:? ? "When did I promise you?"

"We need to find the owner of this notebook. His name is Kagome Ken." Suzumiya Kazuki said to himself, "Only if we find him and return it to him, I can..."

He sighed and didn't finish his words, but it was obvious that he had suddenly become like a wilted cabbage, losing all his energy and strength.

"Well," Nakahara Chuuya subconsciously wanted to pull his hat, but then he realized that he had just washed his hair. He said in a vicious tone, "It's not impossible... but you must know some clues, right?"

Anyway, his mission is to find this person, so he should make good use of this opportunity that has come to his door.

"Okay." Suzumiya Kazuki clapped his hands. "I've tried to find clues myself, but the people there are so crazy that it's really hard to deal with them. It's great that you can help me now."

"You need to go to Tokyo and find a school called Tokyo Metropolitan Jutsu High School. Then go there and find a white-haired guy wearing an eye patch who may or may not be able to see the light. He says he knows."

Zhongyuan Zhongye couldn't help but ask: "Since you know it so clearly, why don't you go by yourself?"

"I've been there." Suzumiya Kazuki said, "But the school spirit there is a bit - it's hard to describe. Not long after I entered, they wanted me to enroll and didn't even ask me for tuition. I suspect they might be doing something extraordinary."

Nakahara Chuuya uttered an "ah" and said seriously: "Indeed, if they are engaging in human trafficking, it is better to call the police in advance."

"Well, after I finish the work at hand, I will go and meet them in person," he said, "Before that, I will collect more information about them and try to hit them with one shot."

Ryoumiya Kazuki clapped his hands in agreement: "You are such a nice person." He said sincerely: "It's great that you are willing to help."

Being praised by someone who looked similar to Suzumiya Kazuki and even had the same name as him, Nakahara Chuuya felt a chill in his spine. He said in a daze, "Can you speak more normally?"

Suzumiya Kazuki's expression changed in an instant: "Ah, you really have a lot of requests."

"You bastard..." Nakahara Chuuya's hands trembled, almost making the bed, which had already suffered an unexpected disaster, even worse.

Suzumiya Kazuki: "Okay, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going back to sleep."

He pulled the book up and threw it upwards, and his figure gradually faded.

"Actually, I don't want to be called this name..."

Nakahara Chuuya only heard this brief sentence before he was almost hit on the head by the falling book. He used gravity to move the notebook to the table, and his heart was filled with great doubts.

——What is this all about?

A person who claims to be Suzumiya Kazuki but firmly denies that he is not the Suzumiya Kazuki he knows, and also says that he actually doesn't want to be called Suzumiya Kazuki.

But the Jujutsu High School in Tokyo...

After all, Nakahara Chuuya had been a cadre in the Yokohama Port Mafia for such a long time and had been to Tokyo several times on business trips, so it was natural that he could not be unfamiliar with another kind of extraordinary ability.

However, the cursed spirits in Yokohama are usually exorcised by the Special Powers Division and the sorcerers, and ordinary people and special power users basically do not interfere.

It was common knowledge that Tokyo and Kyoto were the only two colleges that trained sorcerers.

He just pretended to be ignorant in front of Liang Gong and Shu. One purpose was to test his identity, and the other was to test his purpose.

After all, Ryomiya Kazuki had been a cadre of the Port Mafia for several years. Even if he was an ordinary person, he knew the system of these special abilities very well. It was impossible for him not to know that he didn't know about the sorcerer.

Now it seems that this soul, or the "Suzumiya Kazuki" in the cursed spirit state is really not the one he knows, but there may be some connection between them in some places.

After realizing this, Nakahara Chuuya breathed a sigh of relief. Even if his friend was killed, they were still partners he had worked with. He didn't want Suzumiya and Shu to die inexplicably in an organization full of ordinary people.

As for the purpose... what was the purpose of leading him to Tokyo to see the sorcerer, and what was the relationship between the so-called "Kaguya Kazuki" and "Suzumiya Kazuki"? These could not be sorted out at once.

But he is very strong and there is no way he can lose, so let's just take it one step at a time.

There were too few clues, and meaningless thinking would only add to his troubles. Thinking about having to get up early for work tomorrow, Nakahara Chuuya simply covered himself with the quilt and fell asleep on the spot.

In the consciousness space, the entire system was stunned when seeing the host trying to drag the main characters of Wen Ye to the Curse Return studio.

"Host, are you trying to ruin the party?" the system said, "You want to let the only conscience of the port mafia report Gojo Satoru, the strongest in the world of curses, for human trafficking? Are you really——"

It's too weird to describe.

Ryoumiya Kazuki stretched out on the sofa and said lazily, "Aren't you trying to separate these two identities completely? Otherwise, I can't afford to lose face if I reveal that I'm just one person after I've already created the vests."

"Chuuya only looks stupid on the surface, but he's actually very smart. I'm pretending to be stupid, so he'll definitely predict what I'm going to do. I've already predicted his prediction, and I'm going to Tokyo to find Gojo Satoru."

"As for my vest, that will be determined by Nakahara Chuuya, and we will separate openly and honestly."

Suzumiya Kazuki is very satisfied with his mille-feuille-like acting skills. Even though he hasn't played a villain for a long time, he can't forget his acting style.

This smells really good.

The system couldn't help but complain inwardly, if I had opened the vest at that time, I wouldn't have been forced to do so many things. Now when the world line ends, I might have to face it and monologue to myself.

"Don't overthink it." Suzumiya Kazuki raised his eyebrows. "Trust me, I've been a villain for over a hundred years. This plot is absolutely sound. There's no way it's going to fail. It's not going to fail in my lifetime."

The system said "Oh" and asked: "So what do you want to do next..."

"Isn't it easy to go and watch the battle between Gojo Satoru? What if they really fight?" Suzumiya Kazuki said as a matter of course, "I've long wanted to see who has a higher fighting ability, Fumino or Jukai.

"No, I take it back. Chuuya's gravity... needs to be in contact to work," Ryomiya Kazuki said cheerfully, "So if he doesn't use the dirty trick, he'll probably get beaten up anyway."

The system couldn't help but sigh: "This wave is a contest between the black hole and the universe."

"Gojo Satoru is definitely stronger, but in order to prevent him from getting too aggressive, we have to see if we can get Dazai over there." Suzumiya Kazuki stroked his chin, "If Dazai runs into that guy, it will be fun."

System: "...You really are not afraid of making trouble when things get exciting."

However, the next day, when Suzumiya Kazuki just woke up, he heard the stupid system in front of him say in an euphemistic tone: "Yamato-no-kami Yasunari sent you a letter."

Suzumiya Kazuki suddenly had a bad feeling and asked cautiously, "What did he do again?"

"Nothing much." The system said, "You just need to go to the main castle and take a look."

Suzumiya Kazuki: "...Can he change his name to the unstable one?"

It is impossible to change the name, but we have to say that like master, like knife, and each of them is more capable of causing trouble than the other.

Each swordsman who is de-polarized will send three letters back to the lord, telling about their experiences and personal feelings in that time and space, and also confessing their love for the current lord.

After three days, the colorfully dressed gods will come back and transform into a sword man who has great potential but is currently extremely weak.

Yamato-kami Yasusada was no exception, but unlike usual practice, he did not go to see his former lord Okita Souji, but instead went to the Honmaru, which once had an owner and had not been abandoned.

He once told Ryoumiya Kazuki that there were many swordsmen in his Honmaru who relied on Ryoumiya Kazuki's transformation, but in fact, this transformation was not the original transformation, but a restart after the spiritual power was exhausted and turned into the original body. Similarly, being ownerless now does not mean that it was ownerless before.

Their Honmaru is actually an abandoned Honmaru...

It's just that Yamato-no-kami was lucky. During his slumber, he drifted into the space-time rift and happened to run into the system that wove the fate line of "Suzumiya Kazuki". He was very fortunate to find the next owner and regained some consciousness.

To the world consciousness at that time, both Yamato-no-mori Yasutani and Suzumiya Kazuki were invaders from the outside world. With the tacit consent of "common origin", Yamato-no-mori Yasutani was able to establish a connection with the original Honmaru based on Suzumiya Kazuki's sufficient spiritual power, thus forming a strange balance.

However, Ryoumiya Kazuki himself, who let the system create his own identity, was unaware of this.

"So, as soon as Andei entered, he revealed that he was the ultimate swordsman who came back from the future. How much of his foundation was revealed? Did he lose all his foundation?" Suzumiya Kazuki had a complicated mood, "His acting skills are not very good."

The system couldn't bear to look directly at it and said: "No matter who lands on the battlefield, it's impossible for them to do nothing."

Thinking about his former colleagues who were seriously wounded and sent to the battlefield without even sword equipment by the scumbag judges, it would be strange if Yamato-kami Yasunari could resist drawing his sword, not to mention that Kashuu Kiyomitsu was also among them.

Ryoumiya Heshu was speechless for a while, then said, "Just tell me the result."

The system said crisply: "Your existence was discovered in advance by the world consciousness of that time and space. Now you have two choices. One is to use the sword dance technique to become a judge and return to the past time and space to directly reverse the ending of Honmaru. Because Honmaru is independent of the world, it does not count as changing history."

"The second is that Yamato-mori Yasunari was discovered ahead of time and was intercepted by the consciousness of that world. Mizukami Tetsuya's first two years will be blank, and you have to go back to the Conan world to study for two more years."

Ryomiya Kazuki took a deep breath, picked up the system of the water slime that had swelled up at some point, and pulled it out with force: "Hold it here and give me a choice."

"Is it reasonable to ask me to go back to the Second Division of the Metropolitan Police Department to work for two more years and give me a useful tool knife?"

Suzumiya Kazuki claims to be a corporate slave who cares a lot about efficiency. Everything he does has the meaning of achieving his goal. Although he may spend a little more time having fun along the way, it will never affect his plan.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have come up with such an absurd plan as mixing the protagonists from other studios together and then letting Conan, the protagonist of this world, ignite the energy and run away.

But he still thinks it will work.

This time it was as it should be, there was no choice. After all, spending two years doing the same job over and over again was worse than just killing him.

Suzumiya Kazuki asked calmly, "When is the latest?"

"One week." The system said simply, "It can be as long as the second letter arrives."

"Is that so..." Suzumiya Kazuki smiled a crazy smile, "Then let me randomly pick a lucky audience member to come with me to save those weak and helpless knives."

The system blurts out: "You want to take away the protagonist of the world"

"Is it not possible?" Ryomiya Kazuki tilted his head. "Just think of it as going to gain energy. After all, there are so many protagonists in this world, and it won't collapse if one is missing. It won't take several days."

The system didn't know what to say for a moment. He still underestimated the big devil's ability to cause trouble.

Ryoumiya Kazuki closed his eyes and adjusted his state, intending to deal with the matter at hand first.

Today's rice flowers are covered with white snow, and the fluttering snowflakes mixed with the cold wind are very suitable for catching a cold.

However, before he could figure out whether he could go to work today, a call from Jinpei Matsuda came to his house.

——The person who answered the phone was Morobushi Kagemitsu.

It is not known whether Jinpei Matsuda recognized the voice of his former companion, but when he saw that Morobushi Kagemitsu did not behave in any unusual way, he knew that he had not recovered all his memories under the stimulation of Amuro Toru.

"Officer Mizukami, today's class is off. Officer Matsuda and his team have invited you to go to a hot spring hotel in Tokyo to soak in the hot springs." Morobushi Kagemitsu said gently, "He said there are a few officers you know who are accompanying them, and he hopes you can go with them to relax."

"Going to Tokyo" Mizukami Che, who was wearing thin pajamas and had the same pale face as usual, was also a little surprised.

Seeing him not noticing the change in temperature outside, Zhu Fu Jingguang couldn't help but sigh. The water police officer didn't know how to take care of himself. Did someone take care of him in the past?

Then why doesn't he even want to decorate such a big room?

Even though he wanted to blame his boss for not taking responsibility for his own health, Morobushi Jingguang said gently, "Yes, it's on a mountain in Tokyo that is famous for its hot springs. The police officer across the street also invited me to go with him."

Although he didn't recognize his companion, he still showed anticipation in his subconscious.

Thinking of the many things that had yet to be dealt with, Ryomiya Kazuki reluctantly said, "Let's prepare some necessities first and drive over at noon."

Work and rest are combined, but you can't really be blinded by the work in front of you!

Suzumiya Kazuki told himself in his heart.

As if he was really looking forward to this unknown journey, Morobushi Jingguang quickly prepared the items needed by the two of them, including scarves, non-slip boots, bath towels, toiletries, and even two sets of ski equipment.

Zhufu Jingguang smiled and said, "I checked online. In addition to the hot springs, the skiing business at that tourist attraction is also very good. By the way, Shuishang police officer, where are your medicines? I'll pack them in the box for you."

He actually had a reasonable suspicion that Shui Shang Che was vague about taking medicine, and would not take it unless he was sick. At least after spending a few days with him, he had never seen Shui Shang Che take medicine on time, as if he took it when he remembered and forgot when he forgot.

Morofushi Kagemitsu actually secretly looked up information based on Mizukami Tetsuya's symptoms, trying to deduce what disease he was suffering from, but the symptoms he saw were so varied and complicated that it was really confusing.

Shui Shang Che also slowly ate the steamed custard buns prepared by Zhu Fu Jing Guang and said, "I will prepare the medicine myself, you don't have to worry too much."

Zhu Fu Jingguang hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "Sui Shang police officer, what is wrong with your body? Our detective agency has a doctor with excellent medical skills who can help you take a look."

Shui Shang Che's relaxed brows wrinkled up: "It's not a big deal, it's just a congenital deficiency."

"You can go to Yokohama if you have the chance. I was seriously injured at that time, and it was with her help that I recovered." Morobushi Kagemitsu advised, "Although the treatment method was a little unexpected, it's really-"

"It's with Dr. Xie Ye." Shui Shangche also wiped his mouth with a tissue after using it, "She is indeed a good doctor."

Zhu Fu Jingguang was a little surprised: "You know her?"

Shui Shang Che also nodded slightly: "I went to see her for treatment a few years ago, but my body was a little complicated, and that method of treatment was not effective for me."

Facing Zhu Fu Jing Guang's surprised face, Shui Shang Che rarely showed a sly smile. He teased, "In fact, except for you, I basically know all the other members of the Armed Detective Agency."

"It's just that other than Dr. Xie Ye, no one else has heard of me."

"Are you also——"

This was so unexpected that Zhu Fu Jingguang's slanted eyes widened.

"No, I'm not. I'm just an ordinary person." Shui Shang Che also said with some regret, "No matter what the beginning and the result are, the Shui Shang family will always be ordinary people. This is fate."

"But you don't have to worry. No matter how sick I am, I won't die." Shui Shang Che also said lightly, his face full of indifference to his own body.

For a moment, Zhu Fu Jingguang felt that the person sitting opposite him was not a police officer in his prime, but an old man who was in his twilight years, as if his soul had sunk into the years - just based on the atmosphere.

This statement is very meaningful.

It seems that the Mizukami family is more than just a wealthy, reclusive family.

Morofushi Kagemitsu integrated the information in his mind, used his supernatural powers to wrap around his cell phone, and sent it to the Armed Detective Agency, providing them with clues to find Suzumiya Kazuki.

On the other hand, the armed detective society received the message from Morobu Jingguang.

Kunikida Dopo compiled the information, printed it out, and handed it to Edogawa Ranpo, and asked casually: "Doctor Yosano, have you seen Mizukami Tetsuya?"

Yoseno Akiko threw the empty bottle aside and said lazily, "Hmm, I don't have any impression..."

"Wait, it's Mizukami Cheye," she read out the words word by word, "Just forget what I said just now, I have some impression of that guy."

"Do you remember that I was away for a day three years ago and came back with quite a lot of money?" she said, "Actually, it was the Mizukami family who asked me to treat their eldest son."

"It looks like it hasn't been cured." Dazai Osamu said weakly while lying on the table.

Edogawa Ranpo narrowed his eyes, flipped through the information in his hand, and hummed from time to time: "Kagemitsu's intelligence gathering ability is not bad, it's all quite accurate, but looking for information from Mizukami Cheye will probably be fruitless, we still have to go to Tokyo."

"Tokyo, Tokyo—" Dazai Osamu yelled in boredom, "It doesn't feel very fun."

"Tsk, I didn't ask you to go play." Kunikida Dopo said with a broom in his hand, "But this is just a job of finding someone, so you can send Atsushi to try."

"Where's Dun?" he asked belatedly.

"I think he went to buy something for Dazai." Edogawa Ranpo pushed the documents aside and said childishly, "I just asked him to bring some snacks for me."

He turned to look at Dazai and said with a stern face, "Why don't you go with Atsushi on this mission?"

"Ah - okay, okay." Dazai Osamu muttered, "We need to allocate more funds this time. It's still very tiring to find people. I heard that hot springs are very popular now. I can take Atsushi with me to have a look. I haven't tried to enter the hot spring water yet..."

A vein popped out on Kunikida Dopo's forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I heard everything!"

"Just work hard for me!"

"Hey~ Let's go to Tokyo to soak in hot springs."

When Nakajima Atsushi opened the door carrying a bunch of groceries, he saw Kunikida Doppo holding a broom and yelling at Dazai Osamu.

That's great, he thought to himself.

The author has something to say: When Chuuya and Gojo fight, the six-eyed man will definitely win, after all, one has unlimited endurance and the other has a short burst (not really). But it's quite fun to see one repel the other contact.

But there is no need to think about it, there are other people on this hot spring trip -

After all, in Tokyo (dog head)

Finally, I recommend a book written by a friend of mine, "How I Got Rich as a Life Player". Her writing is so funny! Go read it!

I'm Chisato Natsukawa, an ordinary high school girl, a pseudo-loyal fan of RPG games, a peace-loving person who doesn't play PVE or PVP and only plays life games.

It can be roughly understood as the existence of the home system in the game. It is an auxiliary ability that can use the collected items in life to create props with different attributes.

Relying on my special abilities, I got a lot of good things and embarked on the road to become rich.

Hot-selling products are as follows:

[The Ring of Burning Faith and Fire] imported in large quantities by a certain fishery family

A certain king was frantically hoarding the [Causality Distortion Reversion Potion]

A high-quality gemstone blind box that is regularly auctioned by a jewelry exhibition enthusiast

Various products with monthly sales of 999+ include [drink a sip of mana-restoring potion that makes you energetic and never tired], [drink a sip of potion that makes your health bar grow thicker and thicker], [magic bandages for styling that will never cause skin color difference], [black eye masks that look all black but don't hinder your vision]...

Chisato Natsukawa: I am the legendary money-making genius.

Chisato Natsukawa: I finally have money to play card games. Damn it!
