Conan: I'm really not the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 170 Grain Whiskey

grunt.

Gumbling.

He kept sinking in the icy water.

The feeling of not being able to breathe is despairing, and the whole world is dark. He struggled desperately and tried to reach up, but his body was entangled with something and he couldn't move at all.

At the same time, someone's voice sounded next to him.

"【】ah!"

One of the words was blurred.

"If you feel like it, just [ ] come down! We are all waiting to see!!"

"[]![]![]!"

"Don't you dare! Hahahaha——"

More voices sounded, laughing. Even the slightest movement will become deafening after being stacked up countless times.

He suddenly felt a greater pain.

Then he woke up with a start.

There was no water around him, and there were no shouts in his ears. There was only a natural straw nest and a translucent pop-up window.

A line of words was displayed coldly on the pop-up window——

[It has been detected that your willpower is 11. Do you want to exit the game? 】

……

Tokyo, rice flower town.

In a seemingly ordinary pharmaceutical company, a young girl with slightly curly brown short hair took off her white coat, paused, and turned to look at the pet nest beside the table.

Hearing the noise coming from inside, she quickly went over and took out the animal huddled inside, held it in her arms and stroked its back.

At this moment, the door of the laboratory opened automatically, and a young man with black hair walked in.

"What's wrong?" He noticed her behavior.

"It seems to be having a nightmare again. I heard it scream just now... Rabbits only do this when they are in extreme pain..."

The girl - Shiho Miyano, whose organization code is Shirley, is holding the pet rabbit that she and her colleagues have raised for nearly a year.

She touched the rabbit's back again until its body stopped shaking, then put it back into the nest and squatted beside it to look at it worriedly.

She didn't see that the young man behind her frowned and reached out to touch the necklace around his neck. A pop-up window similar to a game system appeared in front of her eyes. He moved his fingers slightly to type out a sentence.

[Greedy: How do you feel now? 】

The rabbit huddled in the grass nest, with a silver ring on its furry paws, and its paws moved slightly.

[Lust: It’s okay. 】

[Lust: I just had a nightmare...]

……

The rabbit lay in the nest bought for him by Miyano Shiho, thinking about what happened this year.

A year has passed since he left Qingliu Binguang.

That day he left the forest and walked towards Yokohama Chinatown, which the students had talked about. Unable to return to his hometown, he could only look for Chinatown to see if he could meet any reliable compatriots.

After a series of "hitchhiking" he finally reaches his destination, and then he meets Glenn.

She is another red player with the ID [Greedy]. Her in-game identity is a member of the Black Organization, codenamed Grain Whiskey.

As a member of the organization but on the red side, and anyone who knew Conan knew the code name of the whiskey with the alcohol content, he soon realized that she was an undercover agent.

Akai Shuichi and Mizuno Reina belong to the United States, and the British MI6 appeared in the theatrical version. Plus her - Congratulations Organization, they have already provoked the third of the five good people.   Rabbit has not changed his alignment, he is still the Black player. After leaving that day, he blocked his teammates so that they could not find him based on the positioning function in the group chat, and formed a temporary group chat with Glenn.

But the two of them were not aligned.

Players from different camps can form an alliance, but it is very troublesome for red and black players with opposite positions to form an alliance. They need to make an oath with a red line (representing must) or a black line (representing no), and both parties must abide by it. The souls of those who violate it will lose their freedom forever.

Glenn didn't make a vow with him and never mentioned it at all, and Rabbit could tell that she was wary of him.

It's been a year since they met, and he still doesn't know her skills or what her real name is.

He didn't understand why she had to wear long black clothes like Gin in the summer, and he didn't understand why she had to appear in front of the organization as a man - it's not like the organization prohibited women from joining.

Considering the special nature of her undercover status and her experience of being tricked by Arrogance, he understood her vigilance and didn't ask any more questions.

Rabbit originally wanted to tell Glenn the news about Aoyagi Binguang, but he found that he could not provide anything.

After living together for two months, he still knew nothing about him.

What is Aoyagi Binguang's real name? What is the game mission? What's his wine codename? How long have you been a member of the organization? What have you done since joining? where are you now? What do you plan to do in the future?

He didn't know any of this important information.

He could only escape from one police undercover agent being exposed, another undercover agent Bourbon "accidentally died" in Moscow (Glenn said he returned to the police), and arrogance and jealousy left the game one after another. He judged that Aoyagi Binguang was cruel and evil and was not easy to deal with. people.

He didn't offer anything, Glenn didn't force it, and he didn't let him go back and deal with his teammates. After discovering that he lacked willpower but didn't want to quit the game, she brought him to Shirley in the hope that he would cheer up.

This happened for nearly a year, and they usually raised him together. After Miyano Shiho got off work, Glenn would take him home and feed him normal human food. He would not leave him in the laboratory or go back with Shirley.

Miyano Shiho made sure that the rabbit was no longer shivering. He stood up and said to Glenn: "Can you please send me to the Rice Krispies Department Store? My sister and I have made an appointment to meet there."

She paused, then tentatively added: "We want to have lunch together today, maybe come back later...is that okay?"

Glenn did not nod immediately and looked at the rabbit and the pop-up window again.

[Lust: I'm fine, you can go out and play. 】

Glenn looked away and said to Miyano Shiho: "Of course. Let's go."

Miyano Shiho went to get his coat, and Glenn took out a bag of bread from his pocket, tore open the package and put it in the innermost part of the rabbit hutch.

"I don't know what time I will be back. If you are hungry, just eat some bread to fill your stomach first." Glenn reminded in a low voice.

Rabbit nodded and watched her get up as if nothing had happened and leave with Miyano Shiho who put on his coat.

The door to the laboratory opened and quickly closed again.

The rabbit is safe here. Only a few people have the authority to open this door. Moreover, on the first day he gave him to Shirley, Glenn informed the people in the laboratory that he was a "pet" and could not be used as experimental equipment. .

Organizational researchers often use mice, rabbits and other animals to conduct drug experiments, and sometimes conduct human trials.

The rabbit had been kept in Miyano Shiho's office and had not been exposed to the darkness, and Glenn had never told him.

She tried to find him, but didn't dare ask too much for fear of raising suspicion. There has been no progress.

The rabbit huddled himself in a safe and small nest, and couldn't help but think of the nightmare in his mind.

After dying from drowning once, he had been having that dream for a year. In addition to water, there was also inaudible and extremely uncomfortable laughter in the dream.

But he couldn't remember when he'd heard those sounds.

[It has been detected that your willpower is 11. Do you want to exit the game? 】

The system pop-up window pops up again. After the player's willpower drops below 20, the system will pop up asking questions like this from time to time.

Rabbit ignored it, closed it and opened another panel.

After he left a year ago, his game mission was finally generated.

[Mission: usurp the throne. 】

[Details: Renye Karasuma is old, and the current organization is like a pool of stagnant water in the dark. As a young rookie, why should he be below him? Please work hard yourself or help others ascend to the BOSS position to re-energize the organization. 】

This is Black's mission.
