Chapter 112: Scotland's Black Moon Distillery Achieves Greatness...



Chapter 112: Scotland's Black Moon Distillery Achieves Greatness...

[Anti-fraud expert #148: Hmm, you know about this, it's a characteristic of the organization. To trace its origins, we have to go back to the love-hate relationship of your Whiskey undercover trio...]

Stop! Stop! Stop!

There's really no need to remind me of that glorious past! Just tell me how the Miyano sisters are doing now.

[Anti-fraud expert #205: In the organization's eyes, one is dead and the other missing, but in reality, neither is harmed.]

That's good.

Hearing that everyone was alright, Morobuchi Kagemitsu was finally relieved and began to pay attention to those posts that were clearly from gossip forums.

Judging from this description, five years have passed, and the cultural literacy of these posters seems to have improved considerably; they even know how to use poetry now. Well, although the usage is rather strange, it's still much better than sensationalist writing.

[Anti-fraud expert #205: Really? This involves not only Sulli, but also you.]

Me? Haven't I been dead for five years? What does that have to do with me?

[Anti-fraud expert #66: According to gossip posts, Gin mentioned you when he executed "Miyano Akemi." His exact words were, "What you said to me, in every way, echoes that of that Scottish traitor," "Even his eyes are so similar," "Familiar methods"...]

Based on this description, it's somewhat like I disguised myself as Akemi Miyano and went to make a deal with Gin.

[Anti-fraud expert #198: I think so too. After all, we had already planned to meet Gin if time was okay the next day.]

[Anti-fraud expert #11: Come on, let's appreciate the poster's divergent thinking. He seems to harbor quite a grudge against you, constantly saying things like you're haunting him.]

Zhu Fujingguang looked at the few replies from the original poster that had been selected by the anti-fraud team.

Well, even if he changed his ID, he could still tell it was vodka.

[Anti-Fraud Guru #214: That's not all! Do you want to hear more?]

...

The important thing is to find the Miyano sisters and maintain a safe and trustworthy relationship with them.

Morofushi Kagemitsu tried to steer the conversation back on track; he didn't really want to deal with these annoying things right now, especially with his neck still stiff.

[Anti-fraud expert #205: Don't worry, we've already checked all of this. The "F-MA" and "F-MS" notes in your phone are it. Although the communications were deleted as a precaution, the lack of any special markings or messages indicates that they are both safe.]

He checked the creation date of the contact information and the messages on the Black Guest backend, which made him feel a little more at ease.

Fortunately, he thought that fate would take advantage of this strange vacuum period to do something to interfere with him, but thankfully things didn't turn out badly.

[Anti-Fraud Guru #26: Making the future timeline bizarre is already an excessive interference; look at the kind of lives everyone's living!]

[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: To be honest, I'm starting to think there's something fishy going on... But let's talk about that after we figure it out. However, the fact that the body can be "managed" even with timeline jumps is a rather surprising discovery; otherwise, I'd be worried that our missions would only be completed within a single day from now on.]

"Managed".

I think I understand what you mean by that word, but who controls this body that belongs to the future timeline?

[Anti-fraud expert #198: #234. To be precise, it should be "you" who still retains a sliver of consciousness in the future timeline.]

...Then you can rest assured.

He was well aware of his own ability to take action.

But now that the mission is complete and we've gathered a lot of intelligence, why are we still stuck in the future?

[Anti-Fraud Guru #66: We're not too sure about that either. Maybe there will be new missions, or perhaps some hidden completion conditions?]

[Anti-Fraud Guru #19: For now, all we can do is wait. Jing, as long as you don't reveal your identity, you can communicate with the people here and check on the whereabouts of those you care about.]

A slight ripple stirred within Morofushi Kagemitsu. His fingers slid back and forth across the smooth screen of his phone as he silently asked himself:

Did the appearance of number 234 alarm Zero?

[Anti-Fraud Guru #148: Oh, you finally dare to ask?]

[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: He doesn't know about this yet. Yesterday, when you were organizing the intelligence, you read through the other documents several times before going to get the pile of files on your brother and the Public Security Zero Team. It was just showing concern for a good friend and family member; did you have to be so awkward?]

[Anti-fraud expert #66: I understand, the closer you get to home, the more timid you become.]

[Anti-fraud expert #26: Yes, if you died like that, you would definitely feel guilty towards your childhood friend who was suddenly abandoned.]

[Anti-fraud expert #19: Your childhood friend must be heartbroken too, after all, that's someone who's been with you for so many years. Who can let go so easily?]

[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: ...You guys suddenly seem really inhumane.]

...

The anti-fraud team, with their back-and-forth banter, popped the worries that had been weighing on Morobuchi Kagemitsu's mind all day, like popping a pink bubble.

The complex emotions in his heart left him somewhat at a loss, so he lowered his eyes and tried to calm himself down by listening to their crosstalk as usual, but his gaze fell on the mobile forum that Anti-Fraud King had just opened.

Is that wicked man really going to pull this "love story between a human and a ghost" stunt? | Qin Su

[This ghost won't let you go (your heart), he's the eternal dark moonlight | Bosubo]

...!!

What... what is this thing?!

The stunning headline swept away all the worries in his heart.

Five years... Why won't this wave of rumors even spare a dead person? Is this how you terrorists operate? You have nothing better to do than hang out on forums, huh?!

Morofushi Kagemitsu put down his phone, feeling that the organization was beyond saving in every sense.

[Anti-Fraud Guru #214: Spending time on forums is better than going out and looting every day, isn't it? We're breaking the enemy's will; that's the highest level of infiltration!]

[Anti-Fraud King #26: Yeah, don't be fooled by these nonsensical titles; there's still a lot of information that can be gleaned from them. The "the organization urgently needs money" thing was pieced together from Vodka's recent rants about life, wasn't it? Otherwise, why do you think the intelligence team is still keeping this forum alive?]

[Anti-fraud expert #11: Come on, take a look at this post: 【On this day, Ai Moulan thought of the man she had clashed with several times!】. The post says that Ireland and Pisco are both in Tokyo now, and their relationship with Gin's faction is becoming increasingly strained, especially recently over the allocation of new members.】

[Anti-fraud expert #19: Also, there's this one, "My Hand Through Your Silver Hair," which mentions that Vermouth seems to have returned to Japan. She usually doesn't take sides, but recently her interactions with Mello and Gin have become more frequent.]

Morofushi Kagemitsu blankly skipped over 90% of the gossip, staring intently at these few news items, feeling as if a storm was brewing in Tokyo. This made him even more eager to do something.

Now that I have Shiho Miyano's contact information and the two kinds of medicine she produced are on me, why don't I contact her now and see if I can come up with a way to restore Shinichi Kudo to his original state?

[Anti-Fraud Guru #66: Hmm... Actually, I secretly checked Kudo's phone while we were chatting. Something terrible happened again...]

...Don't tell me it's some earth-shattering gossip again.

[Anti-Fraud Guru #148: No, this time it's serious business. Just look at this photo.]

Soon, a photo appeared in Morofushi Kagemitsu's phone album through some kind of supernatural means.

This is a seemingly ordinary group photo of elementary school students on an outing. Five children, plus a bald old man, look like a typical family outing with a grandfather and his children and grandchildren.

Thanks to his excellent memory, Morofushi Kagemitsu had some recollection of most of the people here.

Except for that little girl with brown hair who always stood at the back of the line...

Is she really not Shiho Miyano?! Don't tell me she shrunk too!

[Anti-fraud expert #198: It's her.]

[Anti-fraud expert #205: That's right, she shrunk too.]

[Anti-fraud expert #148: The original prophecy article also stated that she ingested APTX-4869 to commit suicide. However, who could have imagined that her body would exhibit the same reaction as Shinichi Kudo?]

[Anti-fraud expert #19: I originally wanted to tell you as soon as you woke up, but #66 sensed you might be a bit emo, so I decided to just tell you the result directly, and then set off something lighthearted.]

...You don't mean these persistent gossips when you say "easy things," do you?

[Anti-fraud expert #26: Ahem, anyway, this is the situation for Shiho Miyano now. Her older sister was arranged to be with Yukie by you under the guise of Black Guest. The two sisters can still catch a glimpse of each other across the street from time to time, which is pretty good.]

[Anti-Fraud Guru #214: Of course, she's also working hard to create an antidote, but the information is incomplete right now. Sending her the medicine at this time would be a good option.]

Delivering medicine... Oh right, I took a whole box of APTX-4869 and one unknown capsule.

[Anti-fraud expert #205: 4869 can be given away, but should we also give her that unknown capsule?]

If you don't give it to her, you have to take it back. I think Shiho Miyano's research abilities will be even stronger in five years. Besides, don't you guys think this sounds like a cure?

[Anti-Fraud Guru #198: That's precisely why we advised you to keep it. Do you think fate will allow her to obtain the antidote so quickly? The traces of fate binding them are very strong; untangling them would likely take a long time. Taking this into the future might even create a bug that can exploit it.]

Okay, let's keep the blue one.

[Anti-fraud expert #26: She's currently staying at Professor Agasa's house. I'll contact her right away.]

Morofushi Kagemitsu had no objection; he wanted to personally confirm Miyano Shiho's condition.

His condition...

Sister, I suspect that person number 234 was also subjected to the organization's psychotropic drug experiments.
