Is there anyone who really wants to be a partner of justice?

"what?"

"died?"

"It shouldn't be."

For a moment, everyone was surprised. Kojima Masaka was actually dead? Then who was the Kojima Masaka who visited the bishop in the mental hospital?

Facing everyone's surprise, Sawada nodded and said, "Everyone seems a little surprised, but Miss Kojima did pass away ten years ago, and the reason why Mr. Kojima joined the Samsara Society was because he was deceived by the woman who claimed to be an immortal.

Mr. and Mrs. Kojima loved their daughter very much, so much so that after the death of their daughter, Mrs. Kojima became mentally disturbed, and Mr. Kojima became paranoid under these blows. I guess it was because that woman said that she could revive Miss Kojima that Mr. Kojima chose to join the Samsara Society. "

In this way, the reason why the bishop joined the Samsara Society became clear, but it also brought more doubts. Masaka Kojima, who was supposed to have passed away, actually visited the bishop in the mental hospital not long ago.

What is this? Resurrection of the dead?

Mai confirmed again: "That... is Kojima Masaka really dead? Because, during our investigation, we found that... after Mr. Kojima was transferred to the mental hospital, a woman named Kojima Masaka visited him as his daughter..."

This surprised Sawada a little, but he soon calmed down and explained, "It's not that the young lady has been resurrected, but someone is using Miss Kojima's identity. And the person using Miss Kojima's identity is the former leader of the Samsara Society."

"What!?"

"Well, it's a long story..."

As Sawada continued to narrate the story, the whole story finally began to become clear.

At the beginning, the relationship between the Kojima family and the Samsara Society was not close, they just had a little connection, but all this changed after the accidental death of Kojima Masaka.

On the second day after Kojima Masaka's death, the bishop of the Samsara Society came to meet with Kojima uninvited. Facing Kojima who had lost his beloved daughter, the bishop revealed his secret as an immortal, and offered to resurrect Kojima Masaka as the price to make her the new bishop of the Samsara Society.

Although Kojima Masaka died, her social identity was not labeled as dead. Instead, she was used by the former person in power who removed from the position of bishop to become his new identity as an immortal.

The fake identity of a young girl is enough for this immortal who always stays young to use for a long time. As for how to change the identity...

"This is what I commissioned the Kitaoka family head to do. At that time, the Kitaoka family head was still running his family's underworld business, and this illegal business was still their main business."

"Tsk...that old man always causes me some unclear troubles..." Kitaoka couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and once again expressed his dissatisfaction with his father.

Gao Ye rubbed his head and said, "This way... it all connects... everything controlled by the Samsara Club. Then, the next step is to find where this person with the name of Kojima Masaka is."

“So we still have to find…”

"Jingle Bell……"

Just when Kitaoka was getting a little impatient with looking for someone everywhere, her cell phone suddenly rang.

She picked up the phone impatiently and asked, "Hello? What's the matter? I'm busy now."

"Chairman, didn't you say you were looking for someone named Masaka Kojima? We found her information."

"Ha, that's too slow. I've almost asked all the questions here."

"Ah? Chairman, you already know that she changed her name? I'm so sorry! Sorry to bother you..."

"Wait! What did you say? Change your name!?"

Chapter 120 Quan Youxia's Code

In the coffee shop, Youxia tidied up the sundries on the counter, and seeing that the peak period had passed and no one was visiting the store, she grinned and stretched, slightly straightening her chest and stretching her waist, revealing her graceful and enviable curves.

Even though she was wearing a cumbersome and heavy maid outfit, it was still difficult to conceal Youxia's proud figure.

As the last customer left the store, Quan Youxia seemed to be liberated. She changed the record, transforming the previous gentle and calm music into a rather cheerful and playful disco song.

As the tune rose, Youxia began to sway to the rhythm, and the entire coffee shop seemed to have become a stage for this girl alone.

The girl's dancing posture cannot be considered beautiful. After all, she is not a professional dancer. However, with her excellent body coordination and good figure, the girl can still dance a pleasing dance. It's a pity that no one comes to appreciate this pleasing dance, and in the end it is just the girl's self-admiration.

However, the girl didn't seem to mind that there were no spectators. She was in a happy and comfortable mood. She lifted the skirt of her maid outfit and danced as she wished in the coffee shop. She was playful, lively and full of energy.

While dancing, the girl was singing with her own voice: "In this world,

worldwide,

It's just us,

Just you and me,

You know it's not the same as it was,

You know that everything is not the same as before.

In this world,

worldwide,

It's just us,

Just you and me,

You know it's not the same as it was,

You know that reality has already been rewritten..."

Just as Quan Youxia was singing and dancing in ecstasy, the door of the coffee shop suddenly opened. The sudden arrival of the customer made Youxia quickly stop her dance and turn around to show a professional smile.

“Welcome~”

"Clap clap clap..."

The visitor seemed to have been watching Youxia dancing for a while, and he clapped his hands at Youxia with a hint of joking. However, the joking at the corner of his mouth could not hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

After looking up at the newcomer carefully, Youxia couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and then she showed a smile that she had expected, and said: "Well, it's not surprising. Welcome, Mr. Asakura~ or... Mr. Wangshe~"

Wangshe sneered, took out the card box from his pocket, knocked lightly on the door frame, and said: "...Your expression seems to have known that I would come back to find you, Quan Youxia, or you can use the name you used before... Kojima Masaka."

Quan Youxia spread her hands with some regret and said: "Ha~ Mr. Asakura, you are still one step ahead of others. I was hoping that Shinichi and the others could be one step ahead, but it seems that you, Mr. Asakura, are more proactive."

"Who told you to choose that successor? You're so talkative! In order to save your life, you chose to reveal your identity. In order to show your loyalty, you even told him about your immortality. You even promised him to resurrect his daughter?

But unfortunately, he couldn't wait for that day, and his daughter couldn't be resurrected, because I would kill you now. However, I am kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see him suffer without seeing his daughter, so I have sent him to reunite with his daughter~"

Facing Asakura's threat, Youxia was not panicked, but just shrugged and said: "It doesn't matter, I never expected him to hide my identity. It is never safe to give your secrets to others for safekeeping, but it is impossible to really not tell anyone. It's just that I hope that the person who decrypts it is the one I want~"

"Haha, it's me who's here. I really disappoint you."

"No, I'm not that disappointed. After all, it's quite interesting that you can come here." Quan Youxia smiled, stretched out her finger and shook it, saying, "So, Mr. Asakura, knowing that I'm the mastermind behind the Samsara Society, do you want to beat me to death? Or beat me to death? Or beat me to death~"

Asakura looked at Izumi Tomoka's calm and composed look that made people feel like she deserved a beating. Veins popped up on his brows and he said viciously, "Do you still need to ask? Of course, I will torture you until you wail and die!"

"Oh, then, come on?"

As she spoke, Izumi Youxia smiled slightly and took out a card box from her arms to deal with Asakura's hostility.

Asakura saw the card box in Izumi Tomoka's hand and asked, "I'm very curious. You are the one behind the scenes. Why did you choose to become a knight and end up fighting with us knights? You can live forever without doing anything."

Quan Youxia curled her lips and said, "Ah~ That's true, but... isn't it boring? Watching others play games but not being able to participate in them, this feeling is very boring~"

"...Boring? Boring? Playing games?" Asakura snorted coldly, the murderous intent in his eyes became stronger: "But you should know that even in a game, there is the possibility of death. Since you choose to participate in this game... are you ready to die?"

"Of course~ I'm always ready~" As she said that, Izumi Youxia raised the card box in her hand, ready to transform.

"Very good... then you die now!" Asakura's eyes flashed with ferocity, and his mouth grinned. He reached behind him and took out a simple gun made of tape and steel pipe from his waist, and pointed it at Izumi Tomoka.

"!?"

"Xinei!"

"Bang!!!"

……

"Why is it Youxia? This shouldn't be..." Sitting in the car driving back to the coffee shop, Mai couldn't digest for a while that the female senior who had been working with her in the coffee shop, who was cheerful, playful and full of energy, was actually a big boss behind the scenes who was decades old and running a cult!

Kitaoka stroked his hair and said calmly, "You can't tell a person's heart from his face. I've seen too many such cases. People who appear to be good people are actually always ready to stab their superiors in the back..."

Gao Ye touched his chin and analyzed: "Although it is indeed a bit surprising, it can explain a lot of things. For example, Quan Youxia said that she came to Tokyo two months ago...

Ah! Speaking of this, it seems that Quan Youxia has already hinted at the newcomer. Mai, Shi, do you remember what Youxia said about her time of employment? "

Shinichi stroked his chin and recalled, "It seems to be what he said yesterday... two months and five days... counting the one day that passed, it's two months and six days."

"Two months and six days is exactly 77 days. So, do you remember how many days are left before the -day Knight War?"

"33 days." Akiyama Li replied.

"This..." Mai was shocked by the news. She muttered uncertainly, "Is there a possibility... it's just a coincidence... Youxia is so cute, how can she not be the kind of person who would do something like developing a cult..."

"One coincidence could be just a coincidence, but if there are too many coincidences, it may not be the case. Think about it, all of us here are related to the Samsara Society, and Quan Youxia is the only knight with an unclear past.

Moreover, she has been staying away from the Knight War, not participating in it, and not enthusiastic about fulfilling her wish... Ah, remember that wish? She said her wish was to see someone. If that's true, is it possible that she was talking about the bishop? According to the time, it happened to be during that period that she visited the bishop in the mental hospital..."

"...Speaking of this, I also have something to add." After thinking for a while, Shinichi added to Takano: "That is, although Quan Youxia did not participate in the Knight War, she knew the identity and relationship of each knight very well...

I guessed in the hospital that it was Wang She pretending to be a policeman because I learned from her that Wang She killed the policeman with a sharp knife. So the question is, even Takano didn't know about this matter, how did Youxia know it?"

Gao Ye nodded and snapped his fingers, saying, "Youxia has the identity information of every knight. This is the only explanation..."

As more information was added, Izumi Tomoka's doubts were resolved one by one as her identity was exposed. Now, even Mai could not continue to escape and could only accept that the colleague who had worked with her for a long time and brought her happiness was the mastermind behind this knight war.

"But... I personally think that Quan Youxia may not be really unforgivable." Shinichi once again put forward his own opinion and said: "Because, haven't you noticed? The reason why we can understand the current situation is that Quan Youxia is actually giving us the key to decipher it.

First, it was Youxia who told me the news about King Snake and Blade. She didn't need to tell me that King Snake killed Blade, but she told me anyway. Also, the direction of my and Takano's investigation was also provided by Youxia. It was she who helped us find Mai.

In fact, Youxia indirectly informed us of the 100-day news in advance, but we didn't pay attention to it at that time. Now we see that she has been guiding us from the beginning to explore the truth of the Knight War.

We were even talking about Kojima Masaka this morning. If Quan Youxia was worried about her information being exposed, she could have used fake news to confuse us, or even joined us to disrupt our investigation. But she didn't do that. Instead, she chose to withdraw, allowing us to continue to follow the correct path to investigate..."

After hearing this, Mai said excitedly: "So! Youxia is actually a good person, right!"

Kitaoka on the side poured cold water on her, saying, "Haha, naive! Even if this guy blew himself up on his own initiative, it still can't cover up her role as Odin's accomplice. Don't forget, she experienced the Third Knight War, and at least thirteen lives were killed indirectly or even directly by her.

What's more, she is running a cult. Who can tell what dirty things this cult has done over the years? She may regret what she has done and want to stop this knight war, but... can this cover up what she has done in the past? "

Kitaoka's questioning made Mai feel a little guilty, and she had to shrink back.

For a moment, the entire carriage fell into silence again. The exposure of Quan Youxia's identity made most people feel uncomfortable.

Among them, Shinichi noticed that Akiyama Li's expression was the most special, she seemed a little... surprised.

Shinichi was quite curious. You've restarted so many times, yet you're still surprised?

"What's wrong? You've restarted the game so many times, but you still don't know Quan Youxia's identity?"

"...I don't know...I really don't know..." Akiyama Li frowned and replied: "After so many times, this is the first time I know the true identity of Quan Youxia, because...in the previous knight war...she died very early. I have no way to connect her with the bishop behind the scenes of the Samsara Society..."

"Huh? Are you sure?"

"I'm sure... She has always been one of the few who died the fastest in the Knight Wars. When she was unlucky, she was even killed by the Mirror Beast..."

The knights who died the fastest? They were also killed by mirror beasts? That shouldn't be the case. As a behind-the-scenes boss, how could he be so weak?

Weird... so weird...

For a moment, the clues that had just become clear in Shinichi's mind seemed to be covered with a thick fog again...

Chapter 121: The Knight is Strong, but the User is Not

"Didi beep beep beep..."

When Shinichi and others got off Kitaoka's limousine, they found that the outside of the coffee shop was already full of onlookers. In the middle of the crowd, an ambulance with flashing red and blue lights was constantly honking its siren.

"What's going on? Ambulance?"

"What happened?!"

Just as several people were puzzled, Mai had already rushed into the crowd to investigate the situation. When she got to the innermost part, what she saw was Izumi Tomoka, who had been put on a respirator and was carried on a stretcher and was unconscious.

"This..." Mai was at a loss for a moment in the face of this situation. Finally, it was the store manager, who saw Mai and pulled her forward to explain the whole story.

In the eyes of the store manager, she was just cleaning up things in the kitchen, but suddenly she heard several gunshots. She was startled at first, and then timidly came out of the kitchen. What she saw was Asakura who had just walked a short distance outside the door, and Izumi Tomoka who had fallen unconscious and covered in blood in the coffee shop.

In a panic, the store manager called the police and dialed 120. To be honest, the store manager was so panicked that he didn't know what to do and had no time to think about checking on Youxia or helping to stop the bleeding.

And even if the manager could react, she wouldn't be able to do it. In the end, under such circumstances, Quan Youxia was still able to hold her breath when the ambulance arrived.

"The sound of gunfire... That should be Wangshe. He is the only one who has the ability to make his own guns... But I am still a little surprised that Wangshe did not choose to fight Youxia in the form of a knight, but instead used a gun..."

After hearing the whole story, Takano was somewhat surprised that Wangshe chose such an efficient method to assassinate Quan Youxia.

Kitaoka thought it was quite normal: "After all, no matter how powerful a knight is, the user can only kill him with a single volley of bullets. I even suspect that he killed the Blade and the Antelope King in the same way."

After hearing this, Gao Ye could only sigh and said, "Then, maybe it's not appropriate for us to contact King Snake now. This person has a gun in his hand, and he will do anything to achieve his goal. He also has the ability to make his own guns. For us, it's too dangerous."

Shinichi muttered in a somewhat strange tone, "Well, come to think of it, aren't you all surprised? Why... King Snake, armed with a homemade gun, didn't kill Quan Youxia?"
