The meaning of existence



The meaning of existence

During the Yokohama Rebellion, amidst the chaos and turmoil, Jouno Caiju received a message asking for help.

The Special Ability Agent Department is seeking support, hoping that the Hound can send members to help stabilize the current situation.

But the captain of the hounds, Fukuchi Yingchi, ordered them to stay where they were. This was a very abrupt order, and the person who gave the order lost contact shortly afterwards.

Under normal circumstances, they would have intervened long ago. They should have gone to investigate when the treasure was widely publicized in Yokohama.

But after all, it was the captain's order, and they had no intention of disobeying it.

After the third hour of sitting in the empty house, the tightly closed door was finally pushed open. Fukuzawa, the new member of the hounds, returned with Tachihara Michizo and stayed with them on standby.

The silver-haired man who looks exactly like the president of the Armed Detective Agency is very strong, which is why everyone guessed that he was pretending to join the Hounds, but did not stop him.

However, the deputy captain Okura Yezi seemed to have some opinions about him, but after the fight, she found that the man had also undergone surgical transformation.

This makes the expressionless face look more friendly.

Fukuzawa held a man wrapped in a cloak, and after settling him down, he said, "I'll be gone for a while."

And Liyuan Daozo controlled the metal and bound a white-haired figure. They couldn't see clearly what the face looked like because it was tightly wrapped with iron sheets.

However, although they didn't see it clearly, they still guessed the man's identity through their intelligence network.

Silence returned to the huge mansion. After making sure that Fukuzawa would not be back for a while, the instigated Suehiro Tetsuji tore off his tightly wrapped cloak with an expressionless face.

He is the famous detective of the detective agency, but like Fukuzawa, he is probably also a product of that experiment.

Tiao Ye Cai Ju began to doubt. He keenly guessed that Okura Ye Zi knew something because her face looked very ugly from the beginning.

After eavesdropping on her conversation with Fukuzawa, I could roughly guess that they seemed to have made some kind of deal. And one of the deals is also guarding the "cat" that is locked in a cage.

Is it a cat? Probably not, Fukuzawa was very wary of it.

After the cage containing the cat was carried into the living room, the person who was in a deep sleep on the sofa opened his eyes.

The face was slightly red, a sign of catching a cold and about to have a fever. Looking at Ranpo who was woken up, Tiaoye Caiju sat down with a faint smile on her face, without any guilty feeling at all.

Ranpo sat up, staring at a place in front of him with unfocused eyes, and then locked onto the cage under urging.

Okura Yezi snorted and then jumped down. She kicked the iron cage, as if signaling the things inside to be quiet.

But 005 did not make any sound. He never needed to speak when talking to Shika Ninja.

A lot of words poured into my ears, giving me a headache. Lu Ninja heard it more clearly. 005's tone was very aggrieved and sad, with a hint of anger.

Is it because Edogawa Ranpo saw through him that he was angry and anxious? He sighed softly and stood up with difficulty. As they got closer to the cage, Shika Ninja could see 005's pitiful posture.

〖You reap what you sow. 〗

"Wow..." 005 choked for a moment, and then argued, "It was indeed my fault before. I shouldn't have erased your memory, and I shouldn't have just left it alone. 〗

After witnessing the oppressive power of Edogawa Ranpo and Fukuzawa, 005 missed Shika Ninja very much. Now it seems that Shika Ninja's threats are just tough words with a soft heart.

He almost died at the hands of those two men. One of them was smart and the other had high martial arts skills. Although they couldn't really kill him, as Edogawa Ranpo threatened, they had many ways to make his life a living hell.

005 missed Shika Shinobi very much. In just a few days, he thought of Shika Shinobi's kindness and felt very guilty.

He recalled that a long time ago, when the deer ninja, who was only five or six years old at that time, would open his eyes wide with curiosity and ask him some childish questions.

How cute and caring Shika-nin was back then. But because of my own mistakes, there is no going back. 005 just felt regretful. He shouldn't have listened to 001's system rules.

005 said a lot of nonsense, and Lu Ninja felt tired, so he knelt down.

He learned a lot from those scattered and illogical words. I don’t know if it was because of guilt or because he was stimulated, but 005 spoke without holding back.

The green eyes slowly widened, seeming to be filled with disbelief.

〖You said that in order for me to complete the task, so...so I must experience suffering? 〗

005 was stunned for a moment when he heard the question, but then he quickly reacted: "No, that's not the case, I..."

He suddenly became speechless because he couldn't explain. 001 once suggested to him that he should look for a host with aspirations or ulterior motives, so that the chances of completing the mission would be higher.

This is also what is meant by, efficiency comes from motivation.

But after learning that he chose to create a "host" from scratch, 001 was surprised but kindly gave him advice.

"Then you have to be careful. If he is too happy in his original world, he won't be willing to destroy it all."

Yes, in order to help the host complete the task better, 005 did a lot of things as suggested.

People who are lonely and in distress will be moved by the sincerity of the protagonists after meeting them, and will be willing to sacrifice themselves to complete the task.

Everything should be like this...

005 didn't say it explicitly, but Lu Ninja still guessed what he was thinking. From those anxious words that were trying to cover up the truth, he felt a "buzz" and his brain went blank.

So all his sufferings and misfortunes were for the purpose of completing the mission?

His chest began to rise and fall violently, and his rapid breathing brought out a few coughs. His head, which was originally lowered, was raised high, and his wide eyes stared straight ahead.

005, who was very panicked, began to make up for his loss. His tone was a little puzzled, but also a matter of course: "I know you like them, so you can choose to stay in that world, just like the previous world, and then die of old age. What a joke!" 〗

〖Then in order not to affect the mission, erase those memories? 〗

005 swallowed his saliva, panicked and realized that he had said the wrong thing: "But this is also good for you..."

Rich emotions will only affect the completion of the task, so after staying in a world for too long, those memories will be erased.

〖Then what am I? Then what am I! 〗Lu Shinobi's voice was a little trembling,〖005! Am I just a tool to complete the mission? 〗

〖No, no! 〗

After the cough, the young man with short black hair widened his eyes in disbelief. No one else spoke, and no one intervened. But Tiaoye Caiju, who had a keen hearing, heard the sound of "sadness".

"Ranpo!"

Fukuzawa, who had arrived at some point, looked as if he was facing a formidable enemy. He stepped forward without hesitation and covered Ranpo's ears with his hands: "Don't listen. Don't be deceived."

I covered my ears with my warm, dry hands, but I could still hear every word of the apologetic voice clearly. Shika-nin just felt bored, he couldn't even refuse to listen to this annoying voice.

He has no right to choose, just as his existence is unable to choose.

〖That's what I thought before, but now I understand that it is not feasible to carry out a mission for the sake of the mission. I should respect you more, Deer Ninja. 〗

〖Just like Edogawa Ranpo said, he said you want freedom, I didn’t restrict your freedom! Lu Ninja...don't cry, I was wrong! 〗

Those green eyes were filled with crystal liquid, and tears flowed out unconsciously.

Those are not programs written to complete tasks, they are living people with souls and emotions.

〖An annoying guy. 〗Lu Ninja replied with disgust, "You make me feel sick. Do you really understand those emotions? It's just a string of written data, forcibly disguised as something that can understand people. 〗

He is not a prop that exists to complete the mission, nor is he the same data as 005. He is a real person.

Shika Ninja's eyes moved, and in his blurry vision, he saw the blue sky outside the open window.

But he has nothing. Family and friends can be taken away from him at will.

Fukuzawa looked at him with a worried look on his face, and his calloused fingers gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

But these are all "fake".

The emotions seem to have reached an extreme, just like people who are obsessed with a dead end often cannot realize it themselves. More and more crazy and negative thoughts popped up one after another, and 005, who had sensed something, spoke sharply.

〖No, Lu Shinobi, don’t do this! 〗

With a metallic "click" sound, the heavy metal used for restraints was broken. Tachihara Michizo looked surprised, but before he could control his supernatural powers again, the sharp claws of the "White Tiger" had broken through the shackles.

Nakajima, who was transformed into a vampire, was tied up tightly. Although it is not known how Mr. Fukuzawa did it, the man who was originally out of control calmed down.

Although the teeth and eyes still look like a vampire, the dull look makes it look non-aggressive. However, to be on the safe side, Tachihara Michizo still put heavy shackles on him.

But now the iron shackles were easily broken free, but after breaking free, the hands that had originally transformed into tigers returned to their original state.

Tachihara Michizo was very confused, but because the distance was very close, it was a little late when he wanted to stop it.

Nakajima still had his eyes wide open, looking dazed and unable to think. But his hand reached into his pocket as usual and took out a brightly colored candy from the pocket close to his chest.

After all that had happened, the candy had already broken into pieces, but Nakajima, unable to think, still handed the candy over eagerly.

Ranbu met the pair of dark white pupils and lost the ability to think, but this behavior seemed to be a subconscious action.

In just a moment, the sour feeling at the tip of his nose made him bend down. He choked up and let out a sob, and raised his trembling hand and placed it in Nakajima's palm.
