My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

"The rest of the investigation is up to you, Yokota," Hiroyuki Imaizumi said to Yokota.

"Yes, leave it to me. I will definitely find them," Yokota said.

"Even now, I find it hard to believe that there is such a thing as manipulating human thoughts," veteran detective Taishi Onuma remarked.

“Yes! Before, I didn’t believe that there were people who could manipulate people’s memories and emotions at will,” intelligence analyst Akihara Akira echoed.

"No, manipulating human behavior has existed since ancient times, and modern psychology has even organized it into a discipline. Hypnosis and induction are all practical applications based on this. However, the abilities of 'pets' are clearly not the hypnosis we are familiar with; they have crossed the limits and exceeded common sense," said psychologist Rentaro Yamauchi.

“Professor Yamauchi is right, but fortunately their abilities are not insurmountable. Their previous failure to manipulate Fujiki led the higher-ups to discover something amiss, which is why they formed our department,” said Hiroyuki Imaizumi.

"No matter what they are, we must bring them to justice. Monsters should stay in the laboratory," said Keigo Yokota, a psychopath, filled with resentment.

"The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans can think! Now, human thoughts can be edited and rewritten like a program. This is a much bigger change than the Industrial Revolution. If we can master the manipulation of human thought through PET, there will be no war, hatred, or wealth gap in this world, and the world will be at peace forever," neuroscientist Tomoki Ishimoto excitedly stated.

Under investigation...

“It wasn’t him,” Yokota said.

“It wasn’t him either,” Yokota said.

···

“None of these 68 people are among them,” Agent Yamakawa Yuki said.

"Could it be one of the remaining hundred or so people?" Detective Daishi Onuma asked.

“Yes. It’s possible. We can’t give up any opportunity,” Jin Quanbo said.

……

After the investigation was completed.

Hiroyuki Imaizumi said dejectedly, "Neither of those. So... this case has nothing to do with the puppeteer."

"Could it be that Yokota's abilities are not working properly?" hacker Akihara Akira asked.

"What do you mean?" Yokota asked.

“No, we also checked everyone’s identity files, and there were no signs of forgery. According to Katsuragi’s confession, all the puppeteers’ identity files were forged because they were adopted by the organization from a young age and had no identity information or life experience at all,” said Hiroyuki Imaizumi.

"Sigh, all that work for nothing!" sighed veteran detective Daishi Onuma.

"Of course it won't be that easy. They are beings who can manipulate human memories at will," said Section Chief Hiroyuki Imaizumi.

···

The time has come to tonight:

"Section Chief, come and take a look at the case that happened tonight!" Akihara Akira suddenly noticed something and said.

Hiroyuki Kaneki saw a case that happened at a Tokyo hotel tonight. It was called a case, but it was actually an accident, because there were not only many onlookers, but also surveillance cameras that captured the whole process.

However, this case is too similar to the methods Katsuragi confessed his pets used to kill: various 'accidents' and 'coincidences'.

***********End of dividing line*************

“We have authorization from His Excellency the Director and instructions from the National Security Bureau. This case will be handled entirely by our National Special Bureau,” Secretary Matsuzawa Saku said to Oda, showing him a document.

···

After learning about the cause and effect of the case from the criminal police, the Special Operations Unit...

Hiroyuki Kaneki asked Akihiko Yasuda, "Was there anything different about the deceased Eiji Yasuda before the banquet?"

“Nothing is different,” said Akihiko Yasuda.

"Has he had any contact with strangers before?" Hiroyuki Imaizumi asked again.

Yasuda Akihiko's expression changed for a moment, then he immediately replied firmly, "Stranger? No!"

Akihiko Yasuda thought of a pet.

'Could they have killed my children? No, that's impossible. They were just obedient dogs, and each pet was closely monitored, with other control measures assisting them. They couldn't possibly rebel against their owner.'

That would be an accident. However, the National Security Bureau's lackeys wouldn't think that way. If they were allowed to continue investigating, they might discover something. If they did discover something, it would be equivalent to the entire upper echelons of Japan knowing. After all, any department that controls the country's armed forces, such as the military or intelligence agencies, is infiltrated more thoroughly than a sieve by Japan's conglomerates.

The only difference is that the larger the conglomerate, the higher the position it holds.

We need to get the 'company' completely underground soon.

Although Japan is not large, it is not small either. The Yasuda Zaibatsu cannot control everything. If it is just a small matter like "sacrificing tens of thousands of civilians to fill the pits of the Fukushima nuclear power plant", everyone will turn a blind eye and just make a show for the outside world.

However, if they incur public wrath, individuals with psychic abilities like Pet are practically nuclear weapons in political and business struggles.

The fact that the Yasuda Zaibatsu holds such power alone will cause panic among all other Zaibatsu. The final result will either be that they unite to sacrifice 10 years of Japan's economic development to destroy the Yasuda Zaibatsu, or that the two sides 'reconcile' and share the spoils with everyone.

Both of these outcomes are what Akihiko Yasuda wanted.

Jin Quanbo then asked, "So, before the incident, who had the deceased come into contact with?"

“We didn’t notice that. But the entire hotel should have surveillance cameras; you can check them out,” said Akihiko Yasuda.

After hearing this, Ms. Shimada turned around and went to check the surveillance footage.

after awhile.

Ms. Shimada returned from outside the hall and said to Hiroyuki Imaizumi: "In the surveillance footage, Eiji Yasuda only had contact with another deceased person, Kana Kujo, for more than a minute before he died."

Furthermore, the monitoring room was filled with experienced colleagues, some even more capable than me. They found nothing suspicious about the 1746 guests, 2474 support staff, and 465 security guards tonight, nor did they discover any suspicious individuals who had infiltrated the area.

Hiroyuki Imaizumi noticed that Akihiko Yasuda seemed to be hiding something, but even with the backing of the National Security Bureau, he couldn't force the head of the Yasuda family without concrete evidence.

The Special Operations Section then left the scene empty-handed.

On the way back:

"Section Chief, is this case really an accident?" Akihara Akira asked.

"I don't know," Hiroyuki Imaizumi finally said after a long pause.

Chapter 24 First visit to Aomori City

Aomori City is located northeast of Tokyo, at the confluence of the Mito River and the sea. Surrounded by mountains, Aomori City is relatively unknown.

But this place is near the sea, and the climate is pleasant in all four seasons.

Hui's family, who set off from Tokyo early in the morning, had been in the car for more than an hour.

Soft music was playing inside the car.

ほら足元を见てごらん

これがあなたの歩む道

······

We have a breaking news update: The investigation into the Tokyo hotel accident that killed three people last night has been completed. The cause of the accident was determined to be dilapidated railings and a gale-force wind (level 7) at high altitude last night…

At this moment, Hui was lying weakly in the back seat of the car.

"Hui, Hui! Do you want some water?" Meisha asked with concern.

"No need—" Hui replied weakly.

Hui felt like a "weak woman"! She often felt tired, weak, and sleepy.

"I need to exercise more from now on!" Hui secretly decided.

Thinking about exercising, Hui's gaze fell on her chest again; those two mounds were already as big as an A cup.

"How did you grow so fast? Even though Misa's mom has E-cups, am I going to grow in that direction too?" Hui thought to herself. Teenage girls really grow fast, because Hui had recently noticed that her breasts had gotten bigger and firmer, and sometimes she would feel a fullness and a stinging sensation. It seemed like she was heading towards a B-cup.

"Want some cookies? These are very sweet and crunchy," Misa said, handing over an opened bag of cookies.

"I have no appetite, I won't eat."

"Hui, what's wrong? Didn't you sleep well last night?" Wazumi Kusahiro asked.

"Maybe, perhaps!" Hui said uncertainly.

"I feel a little carsick, I think," Hui added.

"Hang in there, we'll be there soon. Get some rest in your new home then!" Sotoku added.

"Ok!"

"Oh, right, Dad, I want a laptop," Hui suddenly suggested.

"Hmm, why did you suddenly think of that?" Soto asked.

"Because I want to write a few novels and earn enough money to last me a lifetime," Huigang said wearily.

This wasn't just something Hui said casually. In fact, after being in this world for over a month, Hui discovered that the history of this world was similar to that of her previous life, with all the famous historical events present. However, the names of the people involved were completely different.

In the field of literature, famous works, such as "Snow Country," "Thousand Cranes," and "The Old Capital" in Japan, exist under different names.

However, some best-selling light novels, such as the previous "A Certain Magical Index" and "Monogatari", did not appear, while "Sword Art Online" has a similar title, "Sword World", but "Accel World" was not included.

This greatly inspired Hui, meaning that as long as she finds a novel that doesn't exist in this world or a similar one, she can definitely make money by writing it.

Why did Hui need money? Because this move cost Soto lost his job, and with medical expenses, buying a house in Aomori City, moving, and other expenses, the family's savings had been used up.

Hui's tuition fees and living expenses will require money, so Hui's family is in a tight financial situation!

To alleviate her family's financial burden, Hui decided to write novels.

As for why he doesn't use his own abilities to directly obtain the money, it's because: the source of the funds is unexplainable! From the surrounding neighbors to the police and government. If you have no source of income but are so wealthy, even a fool would know there's something fishy going on.

Of course, Hui hasn't thought of a good way to improve her psychological manipulation skills yet, since she needs too many souls. Perhaps she can only try to find some bargains in war-torn regions when she has the chance in the future. For now, she should focus on living her high school life well.

Of course, Hui hadn't read that many novels in her previous life, so even if she could recall any details of what happened in her mind now, she couldn't fabricate them out of thin air.

However, Hui can use all her memories from her past life to piece together the general plots of almost all popular light novels, and then fill in the rest of the novels herself based on these plots.

Of course, neither Hui in her previous life nor the original owner of this body had the skill of writing.

However, don't forget that Hui is now a Level 4 esper. Putting aside her abilities, just considering her ability to calculate tens of millions of thoughts per second, she is practically a humanoid AI.

In that month, Hui absorbed 50 books into her mind, possessing a truly photographic memory. She had mastered all sorts of writing techniques by heart. For Hui, knowing the plot to fill in the blanks in a book was just a fill-in-the-blank question, and she filled them in better than the original author.
