It's been less than two weeks since I joined the reincarnation game, and I've just gotten over the confusion. I roughly understand the rules of the game and know that players are more dangerous than in dungeons, and twice as dangerous in reality.
"And the person I trust and am closest to the most is a player? She's still in contact with other players? And secretly confirming my identity?"
It would have been fine if it was just a player, but when a third party was involved, she felt a shameful betrayal, and countless images flashed through her mind.
There was Hayasaka Ai standing in front of his bed with a weapon in hand, and there was also a maid with a group of players coming to the door, pointing her finger:
She is the daughter of the Shinomiya family and is very rich.
This is not the worst. If Hayasaka has any connection with the Shinomiya family, that would be really bad.
Kaguya has discovered that her father's illness is the result of the interference of supernatural powers, and concluded that there is a force within the Shinomiya Group. As an ordinary person, she can still be ignored, but as a player, it is different.
The life-and-death struggle in the copy will extend to reality. You either obey obediently or die.
"Is this a case of the lower class rebelling against the upper class? Or is it related to Huang Guang? This person has been giving me a bad feeling lately."
"Is Hayasaka the spy he planted? I told you that when she came back last time, she was hesitant, as if she had something to say."
"But betrayal is not allowed."
Kaguya stopped still, her eyes lost their luster, and her whole body exuded a coldness that kept people at a distance, which discouraged several people who wanted to come up and chat with her.
The girl turned into an ice sculpture and began to think of countermeasures based on the worst-case scenario, but at this moment, a familiar voice rudely squeezed in.
"Hey, Moonbow."
"Who?" Kaguya answered subconsciously. Just as she turned her head halfway, her whole body stiffened, like a real ice sculpture, and even her blood stopped flowing.
I...actually answered?
This was an unacceptable mistake, but while he was lost in thought, someone suddenly called his code name, their mouth moving faster than their brain.
The words were out of her mouth, and there was no taking them back. She slowly raised her head and saw a pair of red eyes similar to her own. She blinked and was stunned for a moment.
Hey, why is it him?
Chapter 5: Don't Persecute My Master! (K)
Li Dan.
The player who left the deepest impression on me was unquestionable in his professionalism and his strength was far superior to mine. Thanks to him, I also received a very high mission evaluation.
But the two sides did not have much personal relationship, and Kaguya was not used to the other party's strong attitude, even though a strong person should have this attitude.
After the beating in the reincarnation game, Kaguya's mentality has improved a lot. Her knowledge, identity, and property are nothing in the game, but there are some things in her heart that she can't let go of. It's like her reason tells her that she should distance herself from Hayasaka Ai as a player, but she can't accept it no matter what.
So when she saw Yuki, she was a little at a loss. Even with a wig, she had no confidence that she could deceive this player who focused on details. The helmet was right next to her, but would it feel like she was trying to cover up her crime if she put it on?
It’s you, Kaguya Shinomiya.
The girl was wearing a wig and sunglasses, but her face was finally revealed, and her subconscious reaction just now also confirmed her identity.
Yuki's mentality was completely different, a mixture of calmness and joy, just like reading a wonderful novel, and when he turned back, he found that a character was so familiar.
There was no need to be happy, because he had not given the other party any special care throughout the entire copy. He could only say that he made the best use of her. Kaguya Shinomiya might as well thank the Reincarnation Game for allowing her to draw the identity of "undercover".
There was no need to worry, Yuuki thought he hadn't crossed the line, his face couldn't be seen, so he wasn't that hungry.
So he was very calm. If anyone was panicking, it should be Kaguya. He just needed to appreciate the young lady's helplessness.
Seeing her quickly take a half step back, Yuki stood still and said sarcastically: "Are you sure this broken motorcycle is faster than me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Kaguya stopped moving. She had seen how fast this man was. Just a few meters was enough to kill her ten times.
What to do? I can’t escape, and I can’t fight back. I’m being held captive.
Kaguya felt her heartbeat reach 160 beats per minute, but she remained calm and took out a small pistol from her pocket.
"The population base here is huge, so there must be a lot of players. As soon as I shoot, they will come."
She had been prepared for this and had more than a dozen ways to deal with it.
Looking at Kaguya, she is full of negative energy, as if it would be disadvantageous for the player if he recognized her identity, and he would have to play the role of Kaguya-sama Muzan.
Yuki understood her very well. He was just as cautious as he was during his first two returns, and always imagined the worst possible outcome for his peers.
So he took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "I bet you don't dare to shoot, or you can't shoot."
The finger on the trigger exerted force, but Kaguya couldn't press it down. She knew how terrifying this monster was. She had seen with her own eyes the powerful giant wolf priest being beheaded, and then he killed hundreds of fanatics with an expressionless face.
No matter how reluctant she was, she had to admit that she was really a little afraid of this monster.
"He won't take the threat. If I shoot him, he'll definitely die. That's why I'm so sure I don't dare shoot."
Kaguya didn't like the feeling of waiting to die. Her lifeless eyes were gloomy and she asked, "What value do I have that you need to come all the way to find me?"
"When did I say I came specifically to see you? Can't we just take a walk and meet by chance?"
"Please don't insult our intelligence. To be honest, I have some resources, but I definitely can't give you what you want, and it will only get you into trouble."
The girl gave him a heartfelt warning, and Yuki immediately understood where the negative energy came from:
She attached too much importance to the word "Four Palaces", as if finding her would mean finding a ticket to compete for the Four Palaces Consortium.
My associative ability is quite rich, which can be regarded as a recognition of my strength.
Yuuki shook his head and was about to continue applying pressure when the maid's voice came through the headphones.
"Ahem, you're almost there. I'd feel ashamed too if my master were so embarrassed." Hayasaka Ai was listening and had covered her face, making the sound of a kettle boiling.
"Hey, you're the one who threw the problem at me."
"The key is to make the young lady trust me, not to satisfy your evil taste. If you do it well, I will reward you, right?"
That's more or less.
Yuki was waiting for this sentence. He looked at the almost desperate girl in the distance. His stern expression relaxed a little, which made Kaguya Shinomiya even more nervous.
She was suspicious by nature, and Yuuki's well-intentioned expression was even more dangerous.
Damn, this woman is so troublesome.
Yuuki adjusted his micro-expressions once again, his tone becoming slightly more relaxed: "I'm not interested in intrigue, nor do I want to get involved in the struggles of the consortium."
"Then why did you come to see me?" Kaguya was full of questions, thinking that this guy was really crazy, why did his attitude keep changing.
Yuki raised his hand to tell her to hold her still and continued, "You've heard of 'Daytime', right?"
"Well, the Phantom Thief once told you about the organization those two players belonged to." Kaguya was still a little confused. What did the things in this copy have to do with her? Could it be that the people in that organization wanted to take revenge? Let this man protect me.
How is that possible? He doesn't even have basic gentlemanly manners, let alone chivalry.
"Zhu is also my enemy. This is a cross-consortium player organization that has recruited a group of talented players with generous real-world resources. Well, from your expression, I understand that the Shinomiya family is part of this organization."
Before Yuuki could finish his words, he saw Kaguya's red eyes narrow slightly. She knew that there were players in the Shinomiya Group, but she didn't expect it to be so big.
"I've only been in the game for a fortnight, and most of my energy has been spent battling Hayasaka Ai. It's normal that I'm lacking in intelligence. But it's precisely because you're in direct conflict with Hiruzen's men and still know nothing about them that I'm willing to help you."
The test was finally completed and Yuki could rest assured. Seeing Kaguya's skeptical look, he was too lazy to talk nonsense.
"You can verify it. Shinomiya Huangguang should be in Tokyo. Just go and ask him."
Kaguya raised her head with an expression that said 'are you kidding me', unable to bring herself to talk about what was going on at home.
They were said to be siblings, but in reality, they had no feelings for each other. A qualified family member would only use her to death, not to mention that she had just participated in the attack on 'Zhu'. How should she compensate for the loss?
"It seems that every family has its own problems." Yuki already knew what that weird family was like. It was impossible for a brother to take his sister flying.
If you can only be cannon fodder, then you can't even be cannon fodder, because the threat of your existence is greater than your usefulness.
It took Kaguya a long time to come back to her senses, and she hesitated and said, "Are you and Hiruzen enemies?"
"Otherwise, your player status should be worth an extraordinary item."
Only at the Extraordinary level? That's right, I really don't have the ability to resist.
Kaguya smiled bitterly, then turned curious: "Why would you make an enemy of them? With your strength, you can get very generous treatment."
Because they make the best use of everything, the Shinomiya family still values talents.
"It's a long story. I guess it's just that I have an irreconcilable conflict with them."
This answer made Kaguya even more curious. She made many guesses at once, then blinked again, and the man appeared in front of her like a ghost.
"What are you going to do?" Kaguya took a half step back and was about to raise her gun when she saw something thrown at her. She subconsciously took it and it turned out to be a motorcycle helmet.
Yuuki got on the motorcycle and beckoned to Kaguya: "Come on."
"Who are you taking me to meet?" The girl suddenly felt a sense of anticipation, and then her head was gently tapped.
"Idiot, you've been targeted, why don't you run away."
That's impossible. I set up a lot of fake targets.
Kaguya didn't believe it, but when she saw Yuki's eyes, she subconsciously got on the motorcycle.
She had seen this kind of look many times in the "Those in the know are confused" and had never made a mistake.
......
A few kilometers away, Red Lips Restaurant.
The top floor of this luxurious restaurant has been completely booked. Wine and delicacies are placed on the round tables, and the room is filled with melodious symphonies from vinyl records.
Sigong Hong was wearing a neat grey suit, squinting his eyes, leaning comfortably on the sofa, his fingers gently swaying to the music, as if he was conducting a grand concert.
He occasionally opened his mouth to taste the wine brought to him by the girl next to him, but he pricked up his ears to listen to the communicator on the table.
"The first team arrived at the designated location and confirmed it was a false target."
"Second search completed, no target found."
"The third team has spotted a suspected target. They appear to be alert and are tracking them. Preliminary assessment: there are two of them."
A feeling of being in control of the situation came over me, and the wine in my mouth became even more refreshing.
Hong Zheng really likes this feeling. Although there are not many people, each group can be pulled out to deal with an army. It costs a huge price to make the players obey orders, and even makes the Sigong Group shaky.
But it is worth it. The resources spent can be doubled back from the branch family. It seems a bit of a waste to use the supernatural power on those rats.
"Once Big Brother exceeds his limit, it will be my turn to take charge of the daytime. At that time, we must continue to expand the scale and recruit more powerful players."
Hong was planning for the future and didn't take the current task seriously. His "dear" sister had already exposed her identity when she set up a false target, and in reality, Neon couldn't escape even if he had wings.
Let’s first see how strong Kaguya is. We brothers and sisters know each other too well. If she is too weak, there is no need to spend time and effort to train her. Her identity can be used in many ways.
For example, giving such a precious gift to that madman should bring the two parties closer together.
While he was thinking, footsteps came closer and a waiter came to his side and whispered a report in Hongzheng's ear, which made the young man sit up straight instantly.
"Huh? Kaguya returned to the mansion ten minutes ago?"
I had thought so much just now, and now it felt like a boomerang slapping me in the face. I looked at the electronic map with some suspicion.
Isn't it a false target? Then who are we chasing?
"Are you sure it's her?"
"The bodyguards checked. Her movements, mannerisms, and tone are all normal. There's nothing wrong with her." The waiter paused for a moment, then added, "Kaguya-san said she went to school. We have video footage and eyewitness evidence."
That's strange. Could it be that the scope defined by the 'prophet' is wrong?
That's true. Even if it is upgraded to LV4, the accuracy of the prediction feature will not exceed %, so of course there may be errors.
Hong Zheng's plan was simple and crude, which was to relax the surveillance in the mansion, lure Kaguya out boldly, then use prophecy to define the approximate range where she would appear, and then send people to wait for her.
"Shuchiin and Shinjuku are quite far apart. Unless she can teleport and possesses some intuition, she can detect my plan."
The probability is even lower. Kaguya Shinomiya's abnormal condition only lasted for a week or two, and it would not be that fast to upgrade by rocket.
"So we ran into other players. No wonder there were two of them."
"Should we report this to Master Huang Guang?"
"Brother's business is more important, don't disturb him." Hong Zheng was very depressed. He couldn't even do such a simple task as playing house, so he was bound to be scolded.
In the past, playing house games would be enough for a child born to a mistress, but in the current situation, it was not worth wasting too much time. However, he did not want to go to Kaguya in person to test it, as that would be too cheap.
"Keep an eye on the mansion. Let's change the plan a little bit and find these two suspected targets. In case they are players, it won't be a waste of half a day." Hong Zheng said unwillingly, thinking that taking two heads was not a waste of time.
"You mean the connection with the prophecy? These two people might be related to Miss Kaguya?" The waiter showed an expression of inferiority.
Huh? Is there still such a saying?
Hong Zheng was stunned for a moment before he remembered that it seemed that prophecy skills had this characteristic, and even if they were not accurate, there would be a connection.
