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

Chapter 80 The Player Named Jealousy

8 a.m., Chiyoda Ward.

Misaki Town is the least populated area in Chiyoda District, Tokyo, with less than 800 people living in it, but there is a large villa area, and the people who live here are either rich or noble.

The Baijiu family is one of them.

They used to run the slightly famous Shiroji Pharmaceutical Company, which was annexed by another large consortium, the Karasuma Group, more than ten years ago.The president bought this villa after selling all his shares and lived in it with his wife.

This morning, Mr. Baijiu looked through today's newspapers, cut out some important news, and pasted them in his scrapbook. This is one of his hobbies.

He finished pasting the newspaper and flipped it forward.At this time, his wife brought him coffee, and he said to her: "Seeing that they are still defending their rights, I am glad that I sold the company at that time."

"Yes, if something like this happens, it will definitely be more difficult to approve drugs and launch new drugs in the future..."

Mrs. Baijiu sighed and stopped mentioning these things. She looked up at the second floor and said, "Have you not gotten up for several months?"

Da da da……

While she was speaking, the sound of footsteps happened to be heard.

Baijiu walked down the stairs quickly. His hair was a little messy, his briefcase was tucked under his arm, and he was tying his tie as he walked.

"Dad, Mom, good morning."

He said hello to his parents who got up early, ignored the breakfast on the table, turned around and walked out. He overslept today and would be late if he stayed later.

"Wait a minute, months!"

Mrs. Baijiu's shout made Baijiu pause.

He turned around and saw Mrs. Baijiu walking over with her eyebrows furrowed.She was a little shorter than him, so she had to raise her head to look him in the eye, but she was confident enough to teach him a lesson.

She raised her hand to help him straighten his tie, then checked to see if his clothes were zipped up, and then handed him the breakfast and lunch boxes that had been packed long ago.

"You, don't leave in such a hurry, you almost forgot something. Eat well. Not eating is bad for your health. Be careful to develop stomach problems..."

Amid her verbosity, Baijiu took the thing.

"Be careful on the road, and even more careful at work." Mrs. Baijiu continued to care, "If you have to work overtime again today, call home and tell me. Your dad and I will prepare supper and wait for you to come back."

Baijiu smiled: "I know, Mom, I will call in advance if there are any changes."

He changed his shoes at the entrance, opened the door, walked through the carefully tended front garden, and walked to the station.

Facing the bright sunshine, he touched the ring with his thumb.

A whale with strange scales appeared next to him. It carried a translucent pop-up window on its back, which displayed some information that only he could see.

Name: Baijiu months

Game ID: Jealousy

Plot modification restrictions: not lifted
Occupation: Police Department, Criminal Investigation Section [-], Metropolitan Police Department
Alignment: red
Willpower: 80
Seeing that his willpower was the same as before, he felt relieved and closed the pop-up window.

……

Baijiu started playing the game a few months ago and has been living in this world for four years.

From resisting at the beginning, he now accepts and gradually gets used to it.

If it weren't for system pop-ups and someone's presence constantly reminding him, he might have forgotten that this was a game.

This game seems to have a high degree of freedom. You can decide your daily life and behavior by yourself, but in fact it has great restrictions.

They cannot choose their family of origin and cannot leave the country where the plot takes place. At the same time, players in the red and black camps cannot even choose their own profession.

Whatever job is selected by the system, they must continue to do it and cannot resign.Only the passerby camp has the right to choose freely.

Unlike her ally in the passerby camp, Tojo Hojo, who is satisfied with her job ("drawing on" Conan) and dissatisfied with her family, he is completely the opposite. He is dissatisfied with the troublesome job of a police officer, but he likes his current family very much.

His parents in the game, Mr. and Mrs. Baijiu, live in a mansion. They are not only rich, but also behave more elegantly and decently. They will not do anything to embarrass him in front of others.

——The complete opposite of his mother in reality.

The Metropolitan Police Department where Shiroji works is also in Chiyoda District, less than 5 kilometers away from his home. He commutes to get off work by bus every day.

He never thought about driving. Even when his father wanted to buy him a car when he graduated from the police academy, he refused.

After entering the game, Baijiu suddenly felt an inexplicable fear of cars.He can take a bus or a tram, but he will feel intense panic whenever he gets in a small car, whether he drives it or takes a ride.

He didn't know why this fear came about, and he suspected it had something to do with his opportunity to enter the game.

——Neither he nor Tojo Hojo remember what happened before the time travel.

Baijiu guessed that it was the human body's self-protection mechanism that made them forget. The system said that they were selected to participate in the game because their lives were in danger. People are afraid of death and are on the verge of death when encountering danger. It cannot be a good memory.

He didn't tell too many people about his fear of cars. Only his parents knew about it. He only told his colleagues that he couldn't drive and would endure the discomfort when they drove him to the scene. He didn't want to be looked down upon.

There were many people on the bus at this time, and Baijiu was squeezed into the crowd.There was a lot of noise around him, and many of the sounds were not coming from his mouth, but they all came to his mind clearly.

[It’s so crowded, where on earth are there so many people...a group of old men are annoying to death, a group of old immortals, like blood-sucking insects...]

Here was a young man who was sitting, and he politely asked an old lady if she wanted him to give up his seat.

【What's so great...I'll let you lick the soles of my shoes sooner or later! ! 】

This is a middle-aged man with a slightly bald head. He is subconsciously smiling humbly at his mobile phone.

[How can a crazy horse drive? ! 】

This is the driver after braking suddenly. He waved his hands indifferently to the driver of the car beside him who accidentally pinned him.

This is Baijiu's passive skill [Original Pure Bright Heart], he can randomly hear other people's thoughts.

After four years, he has long been accustomed to the duplicity of people around him.Some words can only be cursed in the mind. Even if you are dissatisfied, you must endure it and maintain peace on the surface. You cannot and dare not say it directly. ——He himself is such a person.

The bus arrived at the station soon. Baijiu and several other passengers got off the bus and walked towards the Metropolitan Police Department.

……

As the police agency of Japan's largest city, the Metropolitan Police Department has people on duty 365 hours a day, 24 days a year. As long as someone calls the police, the police can be dispatched as soon as possible.

As soon as Baijiu entered the office, a person's voice came into his mind.

[Those guys seem to be still staring at me. Do you want to ask her...have the higher-ups noticed me? ...What case is this investigation investigating?Did they discover that the accident was...]

This voice comes from his section chief, Katsutoshi Teraoka.

Baijiu knew what the boss in front of him was worried about.

There was a gas explosion in Tokyo two weeks ago. In fact, it was not a real accident. It was done by Teraoka Katsutoshi, the gangster who bribed him before silencing him. However, in the process, he accidentally killed three other innocent residents.

When Baijiu was just transferred to the fourth class, he learned about Teraoka Katsutoshi's bribery and betrayal of internal police information through the passive skill of eavesdropping.But he didn't report him at that time.

Because Section Chief Teraoka is very optimistic about him and knows that he wants to be promoted, he always takes him to get in touch with important tasks.

Bai Jiu is not so heartless as to hurt a boss who is so good to him for a trivial matter that will not affect him.

Only this time, Baijiu got into trouble.

In addition to that damn gangster, three ordinary residents died this time. It was a major criminal case, and even in Japan, where criminal laws are lax, the death penalty may be imposed.

Moreover, the person who bribed him this time may be...

Perhaps because he stared for too long, Teraoka Katsutoshi raised his head and looked at Baijiu.Even though he was in a mess inside, it was completely invisible on the outside.

"Good morning, Baijiu." He greeted with a smile.

"Good morning, you came very early today."

Baijiu, who came back to his senses, responded quickly.

Teraoka Katsutoshi smiled and said: "You work so hard every day, how can I, as your boss, be lazy?"

At this time, a colleague walked in. He didn't take his bag. He might have been here a long time ago, but he just went out temporarily. He greeted Baijiu: "Good morning."

[I'm flattering again, trying to please you every day, but I haven't gotten a promotion yet. 】

Baijiu's expression suddenly froze - he had long accepted games, but he thought he would never get used to certain things.

Another colleague walked up to them and asked the person who had just come in: "What case did Class [-] receive? I saw them leaving in a hurry early in the morning."

The person who just came in answered: "The corpse of a red-haired female was found in Shibuya District. She died miserably. The body was dismembered and thrown into several places. Someone saw the corpse and called the police."

They usually come into contact with too many corpses with horrific looks, and another person asked out of curiosity: "Who discovered that?"

"A man who was doing morning exercises. The head was stuffed in the bushes for at least one night. No one found it last night. It is said that when it was found, the eyes and nose were covered with ants, which frightened the man half to death."

Many people who heard this showed disgusted expressions. Only Bai Jiu looked away without interest.

This case had nothing to do with him, but when he heard the word redhead, he still took out his mobile phone and sent an email to his current girlfriend to remind her to pay attention to safety.

She is of mixed race, her father is Japanese and her mother is Irish, and she has naturally bright red hair.

They met when he was in the police academy. In that incident, he died for the first time in the game. But it was a blessing in disguise that she often visited him after he was hospitalized. The two gradually became familiar with each other and became boyfriend and girlfriend.

Her parents run a Western restaurant in Mihua, and their family background is not as good as her current one, but her flaws are not concealed. She is beautiful, has a well-behaved and obedient personality, loves him very much, and will never do anything for others, let alone look down on herself.

She is the most satisfying existence in this game besides his parents.

----

Miwacho, Colombo restaurant.

"Look, he sent me an email again! He heard about the case in Shibuya District and was very worried about me, so he immediately..."

"Sister, I understand, you have been talking about it since morning..."

"Just let me talk about it again. You are so busy as a reporter that it is rare for me to meet you."

"It's a rare meeting and you still talk about your boyfriend?"

A pair of striking sisters sat at a table for two against the wall.

They have bright red hair and look exactly the same, as if they are looking in a mirror, the only difference is their hairstyle and eye color.

The one with short hair raised her phone, her cheeks dyed pink from the sweetness of love, while the girl with long hair opposite her rolled her half-moon eyes, her brown eyes full of helplessness.

After complaining about her sister, she put down her tea cup and looked at the other customers in the store.

It's after school time now, and there are many students in the store. For example, they are sitting at the next table.He looked like a middle school student, talking enthusiastically to the person opposite.

"Poirot's case is indeed very classic..."

Hearing Poirot, the girl with long red hair looked at him.

This restaurant was opened by their parents who loved reasoning, and the name was taken from the American TV series "Detective Columbo". Under the influence of her ears, she was familiar with various detective novels, and naturally knew the famous Poirot.

The speaker was a young foreign man.

He has wheat-colored skin and is quite handsome. His long black hair has an inconspicuous curvature and is tied into a ball behind his head. An emerald flashes in the black.

As if aware of her scrutiny, he suddenly looked towards her.

- She noticed that he also had brown eyes.
