The man in the suit crossed his arms over his chest and snorted coldly.
"I forgot to tell you, I'm in the newbie copy..."
"But it received a high-level B+ clearance evaluation."
027 The Fateful Trio
When Yuuki Asuna heard the B+ evaluation for completing the game, she was indeed shocked. However, she was shocked that someone could be so confident with just a B+ evaluation for completing the game?
She thought so, but she did not show it. After all, if she revealed a flaw, the other party might guess that she had a higher clearance rating in the novice copy. Although players at this stage did not seem to know that they could seize equipment or props by killing, it was always better to be cautious.
But what Yuuki Asuna didn't expect was that after hearing the words of the young man in the suit, Asagiri instantly showed an expression of shock, even his black eyes were trembling, and four big concrete words appeared on his handsome face.
incredible.
"Is this true?! B+!? No way, I can actually meet such a powerful player?"
Seeing Asagiri's shocked expression, Yuuki Asuna felt awe in her heart.
What is a veteran actor?
This is the real veteran actor.
You achieved the highest level S+ rating in the rookie dungeon, yet you are amazed at the mere B+ here?
Yuuki Asuna already had a premonition that Asagiri was about to start fishing.
As expected, after hearing Asagiri's exclamation, the young man in the suit relaxed his brows, looking obviously very proud, yet trying to pretend to be calm and act like a master.
"Hmph, with my brain, getting a mere B+ clearance rating isn't anything to be surprised about."
"I see. So strong, so strong that it's terrifying. He's truly a high-level player."
Asagiri nodded in agreement at first, but before the man in the suit could feel proud, he changed the subject.
"Well, since you're so capable, why don't you take your teammates and explore this hotel?"
The man in the suit was stunned when he heard this: "Huh? We're going to explore the hotel? What are you doing then?"
"Of course I just sat and waited."
Asagiri spoke in a matter-of-fact tone.
"As the saying goes, 'When God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first toil and starve him.' Don't you like to pretend? Didn't you get a B+ clearance? Then go find the clues to pass the dungeon."
The man in the suit's originally arrogant expression turned a little ugly when he heard this.
"No... We're all players. It's too much to just let my teammates and I explore without the rest of you doing anything..."
"Isn't that okay?"
Asagiri interrupted the man in the suit and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.
"We're all players, what are you pretending to be? And I'm supposed to follow your orders? Why should I spoil you? I'm your father? Huh?"
The man in the suit looked even uglier when he heard such blunt words. He was silent for a long time before he spoke.
"Then... let me put it another way. Let's discuss how to pass the level together, and no one will give orders to anyone else. Is that okay?"
"Wouldn't it be better if you had realized this earlier?"
Asagiri took two steps forward, reached out and patted the man in the suit on the shoulder, looking serious and sighing slightly.
"Really? You have to come up to me and ask for a scolding. Why do you do that? But I'm not some morally corrupt devil. There's no need to kill you outright. That would be a waste. Even if you die at the hands of the evil spirit after leaving this room, your corpse might provide valuable information."
Although Yuuki Asuna seemed to remain calm, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips when she saw the ugly expression on the man in the suit.
Why did you have to pick on him when you could pick on anyone else? And even give him orders?
Do you know that this guy...
But he even criticized the bloody-faced nurse in the Giant Mountain Mental Hospital, who looked so scary that most people couldn't bear to look directly at him. Moreover, in the rookie copy, he led a player through the level first, and then killed the other party to find out the hidden rule. He was the ultimate devil?
...........
After being scolded by Asagi, the self-righteous and arrogant man in a suit was very angry, but he dared not say anything. After all, Asagi was only about 1.8 meters tall and looked young, but if a real conflict broke out, he was not sure of winning. Moreover, this was a copy after all, and the man in the suit would not ignore the most important thing of passing the level just for the sake of momentary pleasure.
However, after experiencing such a shameful thing, he did not intend to act with Asagiri and Yuuki Asuna, so he proposed the idea of exploring in groups.
He himself, of course, was in the same group with the heavily made-up woman, while Asagiri and Yuuki Asuna were definitely in the same group.
The girl who entered the dungeon alone, wearing a long dress, holding a cane and a masquerade mask, took the initiative to ask to act with Asagiri and Yuuki Asuna.
The exploration time is set at one hour. After one hour, we will come back here and share and discuss the clues and information we have obtained.
After leaving the hotel suite and coming to the corridor outside, after separating from the man in a suit and the heavily made-up woman, Yuuki Asuna bent one knee, reached out and gently stroked the carpet in the corridor. Based on the soft touch from her fingertips, she turned her head to look at Asagiri and gave her own analysis.
"The carpet is pure wool, which is expensive and difficult to clean, but the sound insulation is very good. It seems that this hotel we are in must be a very high-end one."
While saying this, Yuuki Asuna was still looking at the girl wearing a mask and a white dress. A hint of vigilance appeared in her eyes. After all, it was really strange that the other party took the initiative to say that she wanted to act with her and Asagiri.
Are you trying to curry favor with someone?
No, if you want to curry favor with someone, you should go find the man in a suit who starts bragging and asking for command as soon as he enters the dungeon.
"Violet."
When Asuna Yuuki heard Asagiri suddenly calling out her code name, she was stunned for a moment, wondering why someone suddenly called out her code name?
Could it be that...
"Ready to take action."
"Shall we do it? Right now, here?"
Asuna Yuuki immediately stood up and stared at the masked face of the girl in a Western dress. Her right hand had already stretched out to the side, with her five fingers slightly spread out, making a gesture of loosely grasping the hilt of a sword.
Although she didn't know why, since Asagiri, as the leader, had given the order, she had to carry it out.
"Hey, I just separated from those two people, and you're planning to attack me?"
Even though she noticed the tense atmosphere in the air, the girl in the dress still had a smile in her voice, as if she was not nervous at all. She even stared at Asagiri with interest and asked.
"Why are you attacking me?"
"Because you're suspicious."
Asagiri returned the smile and spoke softly.
"You've taken the initiative to ask to team up with me. This counterintuitive behavior makes me suspect that you're a disguised evil spirit, planning to take advantage of our separation and target our two weakest players first."
But what the girl in the Western dress said next was beyond Yuuki Asuna's expectations.
"Are you still acting? You're obviously the strongest of the five players this time, right? That idiot in the suit can't see that, but he's stupid. I'm not stupid at all."
The girl in the Western dress not only did not retreat, but took two steps forward, raised her head and stared at Asagiri's face with a smile in her eyes.
"That guy completely failed to realize that ordinary players wouldn't sign up for a dungeon at this time. The one-month deadline isn't even up yet anyway. Anyone who actively signs up for a dungeon at this time is likely someone who's confident they can complete it and has earned good reviews in the rookie dungeon."
"Based on this premise, the disbelief you displayed when you heard him say he received a B+ was clearly a deliberate act. Furthermore, most importantly, when you faced him just now, you didn't show any fear at all. Instead, you acted condescendingly, like a strong person looking down on the weak."
Having said that, the girl in the dress paused, looked directly at Asagiri's face, and said softly with a smile.
"But... since I'm assuming you're the strongest player in this dungeon, then you couldn't possibly have failed to think of this. The only reasonable explanation is... you were deliberately fishing, and I was the fish that took the bait, right?"
028 The girl named Iwanaga Kotoko
After hearing the words of the girl in Western dress, Asagiri's expression did not change at all, she just kept smiling.
"Since you can think of this, then you should understand why I suspect you are an evil spirit in disguise."
"Yes, I am indeed the most suspicious one."
The girl in the Western dress was not angry because Asagiri doubted her. Instead, she said with a smile.
"You and the player next to you should have added each other as friends. The man in the suit and the woman in makeup also claim to be teammates. Assuming there really are evil spirits disguised as players, two of the five players are evil spirits, which is a bit too difficult. Moreover, a player like me, who has no teammates and is alone, still dares to actively sign up for the dungeon. If there are no evil spirits pretending to be players, then there are only two possibilities."
"The first type is me being stupid, but thinking I'm smart, just like that man in a suit. I think I can easily clear the level and get the dungeon rewards. The second type..."
When the girl in the dress was halfway through her speech, Asagiri interrupted her and said what she was going to say next.
"You received an extremely high clearance rating in the rookie dungeon, as well as generous rewards including this cane and the mask you're wearing. This gives you confidence that you can complete the dungeon even if you participate alone."
"Your guess is absolutely correct."
Hearing that the girl in the Western dress was still talking to Asagiri with a smile on her face until this moment, and considering her strange behavior of actively asking to team up with Asagiri before, Yuuki Asuna suddenly felt a little unhappy. She took two steps forward, stood in front of Asagiri, looked directly into the eyes of the girl in the Western dress, and said in a cold tone.
"So, even though you have the ability to clear the level on your own, you still took the initiative to ask to act with the two of us and do such a suspicious thing. You really have evil intentions, right?"
"you misunderstood."
The girl in the dress shook her head, and then said something that surprised Yuuki Asuna.
"I didn't know you two were teammates. I have no interest in you. The only person I'm interested in is him. It has nothing to do with you."
"You guy..."
Yuuki Asuna bit her teeth lightly, forcibly restraining herself from wanting to summon the rapier and pierce the Western-dressed girl with it, and turned to look at Asagiri.
"This guy really has a conspiracy. I suggest that you just abandon her."
Hearing this, the girl in the Western dress took off her mask without any hurry, revealing a face with fair and tender skin, delicate and lovely, as beautiful as an angel, which made people feel favorable towards her. Then a pitiful and pitiful expression appeared on her face, like a wounded deer asking for help, staring at Asagiri with her violet eyes, and her soft voice trembled slightly.
"I believe you wouldn't be willing to leave a lovely girl like me alone in this hotel haunted by evil spirits, right? If I were to encounter an evil spirit..."
What the girl in Western clothes didn't expect was that Asagiri interrupted her before she could finish.
"I don't care. I'm not interested. If you die, then die. What does it have to do with me? Goodbye."
Then, in the slightly surprised eyes of the girl in the Western dress, Asagiri spoke directly to Yuuki Asuna.
"gone."
"Oh well."
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, the girl in the dress couldn't help but stamp her feet and muttered to herself angrily.
"What? You're really going to leave me and go away like this? This is really... No, that's not right."
Halfway through her monologue, the girl in the dress changed her mind. Instead of getting angry, she nodded as if she was very satisfied.
"Faced with a request from a lovely girl like me, he didn't hesitate at all and simply turned and left. It seems he's not some indecisive saint, but a very good player... Hmm... Let's think of a way to demonstrate my value as a player in this dungeon, and then go find him to team up."
...........
On the other side, Yuuki Asuna, who was walking with Asagiri through the fire escape, which was the stairwell, towards the bottom of the hotel, suddenly stopped, pursed her lips, and worry appeared in her eyes.
"We... leave her there alone, is that really okay? I really don't like her very much, but after all, she hasn't done anything hostile to us, and she even took the initiative to take off her mask. In the face of the possibility of encountering evil spirits at any time, can she really return to the room alive to gather..."
"You are just hard on the outside but soft on the inside."
Asagiri said this first, and before Yuuki Asuna could refute, she asked back.
"Don't you know her?"
"Huh? I don't know him. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
"Let me give you a hint. Her right eye is a prosthetic eye and her left leg is a prosthetic limb."
"Right eye...left leg..."
Yuuki Asuna muttered to herself, and suddenly her pupils dilated in shock as if she had thought of something.
"That girl...could she be that young lady?"
"Yeah, that's right."
Yuuki Asuna has already remembered.
Five years ago, there was a suspected kidnapping case that attracted widespread attention from the society. The protagonist was the eleven-year-old eldest daughter of the Iwanaga family, Kotoko Iwanaga.
Iwanaga Kotoko's family is very wealthy. Even in the private Shuchiin Academy, it is one of the most prestigious aristocratic families.
When Kotoko Iwanaga was eleven years old, she suddenly disappeared from her home. Her parents immediately called the police. However, even though the Metropolitan Police Department tried their best, they could not find any clues. Just when the Metropolitan Police Department was at a loss and didn't know what to do, Kotoko Iwanaga suddenly appeared on a bench in a park.
