Tokyo people don't talk about Wude

Chapter 364: Cooperation, Poker Divination, Unexpected Runaway
"I've heard you mention the Gensokyo Project." Silis asked impatiently, "What on earth is this?"

"To put it simply~" Kajiya Otono deliberately dragged out the words, sounding a little angry: "It is to sacrifice 70% of the people of Wano Country overnight through a special ceremony, in order to collect enough soul energy to start a war."

"Sacrifice." Silis almost bit her tongue. "Let me confirm what you mean by sacrifice."

"Kill him." Gou Ye Yinwu used his hand as a knife and wiped his neck.

"Ahh." Hillis's face turned pale and she almost shouted out loud: "Madman. No, it's simply a devil! A devil!"

"But in other words, as long as we can stop this ritual, we can stop this absurd war and destroy their overall plan." Bonny said calmly:

"This is a shaky plan. I can stop it myself, so there is no need for any foreign organization to intervene."

"But no matter what, it's too difficult to fight such a huge conspiracy with one person's strength!" Shiris tried hard to digest this information and persuaded: "If we let the FBI or even the United Nations and the international coalition help, the chances of winning will be greater!"

"You're right." Kagome Otonashi nodded with a smile, and then asked, "But what happens after that?"

"After that." Shiris thought of something and fell silent.

"After this farce is over, the secrets of [Soul Science] will be taken as spoils and spread to countries around the world. Then, each country will use this to start a new technological competition and arms race, which will only create more victims." Bonfire Otonashi said:
"My goal is not only to stop this ridiculous war, but also to make [Soul Science] disappear from the world forever without leaving any trace. This kind of inhumane technology should not exist. People in the past must have learned a painful lesson and buried this secret forever."

"That's true." Shiris was speechless.

"And there's one more thing~" Kagome Otonashi asked again: "Have you ever thought about what the outcome of Wano Country would be if foreign forces intervened in this matter?"

"The defeated nation" Hillis answered immediately.

"That's right, Wano Country will become a defeated country. Or should I say, a defeated country again." Bonye Otonashi said: "Do you know why I refused the invitation of the United Country after graduation and insisted on returning to my motherland?"

"Is it because of patriotism?" asked Hillis.

"Correct~ I have been a Yamato all my life, and I will never give up this identity." Sadness was revealed in Otonashi's eyes at Bonnet Night:

"I joined the research of [Soul Science] with great enthusiasm, imagining that our achievements would definitely benefit this country. Until I found out that these studies were intended to provoke war and tie this country to the war machine again, and an experimental accident deprived me of most of my body, I realized what kind of horrible taboo power we were touching and what kind of greedy things we were doing."

"I realized I was wrong, terribly wrong."

"So, I have to make amends. I have to stop them and save this country even if it costs me everything! But I don't want it to become a defeated country again."

"Since its defeat in World War II, Wano Country has been deprived of many of the rights it should have as a sovereign state, and has even had to become a puppet of the victorious country, allowing them to plunder, manipulate, and humiliate them. The tragedy of the bubble economy is a microcosm of this."

"I love this country, so I will not let it become a defeated country again. The problems of Wano Country should be solved by the people of Wano Country themselves. There is no need for outsiders to generously donate. This is my position, please understand."

Silis sighed a few times and retorted in a deep voice: "But have you considered the consequences of failure?"

"I have considered it ~ because I am also gambling." Bonnet Otonashi answered cheerfully: "If I fail, then in the end, I am willing to hand over all the information and the chance to save Wano Country to others. I will stop this disaster at all costs."

"But this is a last resort. I won't resort to it unless I have no other options."

Hillis said angrily: "You are crazy too."

"Thank you for the compliment~?" Bonny smiled calmly, not taking this as an insult or ridicule at all:

"Then Miss Hillis, please allow me to ask again: I need an assistant now, are you willing to cooperate with me?"

"I need a reason." Hillis shook her head, still with an expression of disbelief on her face: "You need to tell me why I have to cooperate with a crazy woman like you."

"Then I will simply list three reasons~" Kagami Otonashi held up three fingers and said slowly:

"First, if you don't cooperate with me, you will die here. I am sure that you have no chance of escaping from here with your own strength. I can rescue you, and I can naturally send you back. You will continue to undergo cruel human experiments, and once a person dies, it's all over. You should understand this."

"Gu" Xi Lisi's face turned livid: "Heh, despicable."

"Secondly, I think you are capable of being my assistant." Kagome Otonashi ignored her and continued, "I have investigated your memory. Your grades during the agent training were excellent, almost full marks. You have strong reconnaissance, learning and judgment abilities. The only shortcoming is that your style of doing things is rather reckless, but in some cases it can be an advantage."

"Tsk, are you going to praise me next?" Hillis said unhappily.

"Third." Bonny Night Otono paused and stared at her: "I will help you realize your wish for revenge."

"My revenge. You even know this." Shiris swallowed.

"I have already investigated all your secrets." Kagome Otono tapped the keyboard lightly, and a photo of a young girl popped up on the screen.

She has fluffy curly short brown hair, a high nose bridge, a beautiful face with a very Western European style, and a striking heart-shaped hairpin on the side of her bangs.

If Jiuzhou Cheng was present, he might exclaim: "She looks a bit like Officer Qing Gong!"

"Freya E. Inrumand." Bonnet Otonashi said, "By the way, E is the name given by the church. The full name is Elizabeth."

"Freya" Shilis's eyes shook violently.

"I said, you are the second bravest female agent I have ever seen, and the first one is her~" Kagome Otono introduced:

"She is an outstanding and strong woman. She started FBI spy training at the age of twelve and was sent to Wano Country to investigate the KJ organization at the age of seventeen."

"The FBI had her enter the University of Tokyo as an international student, looking for an opportunity to get close to the young master of the Kiyomiyaji family, Kiyomiyaji Takikiyo, who was also studying at the university at the time."

"The Kiyomiyaji family is in collusion with the KJ organization, and the FBI hopes that she can use this clue to start an investigation. And she lived up to everyone's expectations, and really fascinated Kiyomiyaji Takikiyo. The two began to date, then lived together, and finally got married and had children. They became inseparable, and it seemed that they could extract important information from him."

"Unfortunately, Freya was eventually exposed and silenced by the KJ organization, who disguised it as a car accident." "As expected," Shiris frowned, looking extremely sad.

"Ms. Shilis, you and Freya were very good friends." Bonye Otonashi tilted his head slightly and smiled, "The reason you joined the FBI and took the initiative to come to Wano Country to carry out the mission was to investigate the cause of her death and the murderer who killed her~"

"You're right, Freya. She is my best friend and the most important friend besides my family." Silis clenched her fists tightly, sniffed, and wanted to say something else, but gave up.

"I cannot accept that she died in this country without any clear reason. Even her body was buried in a foreign country."

"Ah, her body should not have been properly buried. It was probably used for experiments~" Bonnet Otonashi thought for a moment and reminded: "Her husband must have hated her to the core and wished that she would suffer the worst desecration even after her death."

"F**K! These lunatics! Scum! Beasts!" Hillis finally became angry and her eyes were red. She stood up and cursed: "Son of a bitch! I'm going to kill them all! Kill them all and feed them to the pigs! I swear to God! F**K!!!"

Otonashi sat quietly at the camping night, waiting for her to vent her emotions before speaking again:
"I understand how you feel. So I will give you a chance to take revenge yourself. Is this enough to tempt you?"

Hillis sat down angrily, but having received psychological training as an agent, she quickly regained her composure and began to regret her previous loss of composure. Agents must never be emotional.

After a while, she adjusted her mood and asked, "Ms. Bonfire, I have another question. Why did you choose me? You should have rescued other agents, right?"

"I'm sorry, you're the first and only person I rescued." Bonny Night Otonashi immediately replied:
"Even for me, it's almost impossible to get someone out of their strict surveillance."

"Fortunately, the entire laboratory's attention has been focused on the newly recovered 'P01' these days, so I happened to seize a momentary regulatory loophole and rewrite your case file to rescue you."

"If you ask me, my meeting with you is a miracle made up of countless coincidences."

"." Shilis' heartbeat quickened a little, and she couldn't help but feel lucky for having survived the disaster.

"So let me ask you again, are you willing to cooperate?" Kagome Otonashi asked again with a smile.

"Do I have any other choice?" Hillis' face darkened. She finally made up her mind, stretched out her hand, and shook hands with the cold mechanical hand.

"Then welcome to join my team, Miss. Shiris~" Bonye Otono nodded slightly.

"You mean the team? It can't be just the two of us, right?" Shiris asked.

"There are only two at the moment, and I will recruit a few new members in the future." Bonfire Night Otono thought for a while, tapped the keyboard a few more times, and a new photo popped up on the screen.

Photos by Kyushu Makoto.

"P01, this is the third member in my plan." Kagome Otomu introduced, pointing at the photo.

"Him? Hasn't he been completely controlled and become a running dog of the KJ organization?" Hillis asked curiously.

"Don't forget, I'm a computer engineer, and I also contributed a little to the development of [Wedge]. I volunteered to be his close monitor in order to take the opportunity to rewrite the program of [Wedge] and secretly seize control of his body." Kagome Otono explained:

"As long as I want, I can invade his [Wedge] and seize control of his body at any time. He will become the most central figure in my plan."

"Although I still have to control him like a puppet, for him, being controlled by me to save the world is better than becoming a war tool of those lunatics~" Kagome Otomu pulled out a neat 5,000 yen bill from his chest, with a happy smile on his face:

"I actually like him very much, the child struggling in a miserable world. Although he is just deceiving himself, he always maintains his hope for a better life and never gives up his dignity as a human being. I promised him that I would provide corresponding services for the remuneration he paid."

"Well, I don't know what happened between you and him, but he is indeed a poor child." Hillis didn't quite understand, but she didn't plan to ask more: "Then according to your arrangement, what should I do next?"

"I will quietly send you off this island. Once you get ashore, immediately head to my secret base and lie in wait for further instructions." Bonny Night Otono ordered:

"Of course before you leave, I'm going to bury a remote-controlled bomb in your neck to prevent you from betraying me or leaking information to a [foreign organization] that you trust more. Do you understand?"

After her facial muscles twitched for a moment, Hillis had to relax her brows and compromised: "Well, without your help, I would have been dead a long time ago. I hope your plan is reliable enough."

"Very good, happy cooperation~" Kagome Otonashi smiled and shook hands with her: "Before we leave, let me do a divination for you, just as a gift from me to my partner."

"Divination. That's a lie, right?" Hillis sneered.

"Then you really underestimated me, Ms. Hillis." Bonny Night said with a mysterious smile: "After the experimental accident, although I lost most of my body, I also gained a little bit of [superpowers]. I can vaguely observe other people's souls with my naked eyes, and use this to see their fate."

"Unbelievable. Are you really not lying to me?" Hillis widened her eyes.

"Of course it's true~ But I can only 'vaguely' see a few abstract fragments of fate. It's almost impossible for me to express it accurately in words. Even I can't understand the meaning of it." Bonye Otonashi searched on the table, turned out a set of worn playing cards, and began to shuffle the cards quickly with both hands:
"But if we use the cards to interpret it, it might be a little easier to understand."

After shuffling the cards for a while, Zou Yeyinwu drew three cards and placed them on the table.

"Jack, King, Ace of Hearts." Bonye Otonashi stared at the three cards on the table, and suddenly placed the Ace of Hearts on top of the King, muttering mysteriously:
"The insane Ace of Hearts killed the King, but Jack still had to continue to fulfill her duties. This is the future reflected in your eyes."

"What do you mean?" Hillis was confused.

"Haha~ I can't understand it either." Bonye Yinwu smiled irresponsibly: "Anyway, you will know when it really happens."

"Forget it, let's not waste time." Hillis sighed and lifted the hair on the back of her neck: "If you want to plant the bomb, hurry up, before I regret it!"

Just as he finished speaking, an alarm suddenly sounded from Bonye Otonashi's computer, and a huge triangular warning sign popped up in the center of the screen.

"What? Am I exposed?!" Hillis was shocked and extremely panicked.

"Don't panic, it shouldn't have anything to do with you. They can't possibly find you so quickly." Bonye Otonari calmly operated the computer and found that he had received an emergency notice from the organization:

[P01 is going berserk, its [wedge] is out of control! All agents on Experimental Island No. 3 immediately return to the laboratory and carry out emergency operations to control and contain P01! Execute immediately! ! ]
