Randomly pick a stand-in every day

"No matter how you say it, it's not good to contact him forcibly at the police station. There's no other way. But this guy probably won't leave as easily as you guys, and he's probably going to stay here for a while. If someone releases him on bail, I'll get the news. It’s better to find another target.”

Jotaro explained in this way that although he always believed that those who use double powers to do evil would be difficult to be punished by law, so he used doubles to punish them; but now that Adan has been imprisoned, Ah Qiang also He didn't intend to beat him himself at the risk of conflicting with Tiao Zi.

"Besides, it's already very late. It's time for us to think about tonight's accommodation arrangements in advance. Guys, I've worked hard for you today. It's time to eat something serious and take a good rest."

Indeed, the local time of this meeting is already after ten o'clock. Everyone was interrupted by an unexpected incident while eating twice in a row. The agreed replenishment status has not been successfully carried out until now. The parameters of several people are indeed It's not very healthy anymore.

So, everyone left the police station smoothly and returned to the car. Jotaro retrieved the "Balazo" he had hidden just now, threw him back in the car and set off with him.

Ah, that's right, this guy is still in a strange state of being dizzy (stopping) when he was hit by a shovel. Anyway, he hid this guy before these police officers found him, otherwise it's really hard to explain... …

A group of people drove away, the first day of this mission is coming to an end, and I don't know if there will be another incident in the last time, or what will happen tomorrow?

--------

"... something unexpected happened."

"Female Pope" Mithra's expression changed slightly, she raised her head to look into the distance, and retracted her substitute.

Like the "Empress", she basically has no relationship with the "female" at all. Although she is the type that can only be used at close range, she can run a long distance regardless of power, so she can give people who are listening to the distance. information.

"According to Dan, 'Angel' was defeated. "

"Hey! That guy... really didn't stop him..." The people present suddenly became annoyed.

Of course, they don't care about that arrogant newcomer at all, but that guy is a rare candidate for a stand-in who is related to "Angel"!

If he just collapsed like this, where would he go to find a replacement for "Angel"!This particular connotation is really hard...

"Don't panic, have you forgotten? The few battle scenes that were filmed before, among them... isn't there a perfect substitute?"

"?"

Everyone didn't know why, but the boy who spoke turned over his drawing board and showed the picture bank on it:

"Here, isn't there an angel?"

"...you said...the one that relied on her?"

"The meaning of an angel is a messenger who conveys God's will. Lord Dio must want his most loyal servant to take on this task. That newcomer who is arrogant, to be honest, no matter how you look at it, it is not such an evaluation, it is just a helpless compromise. .”

"So, let's include that woman as a candidate. Compared with the newcomer, this pretty woman may be more in line with the meaning of an angel as a facade."

"...It seems that instead we have to keep her safe for the next two days, and make sure that she can be present during the 'ceremony'. "

"Comparatively speaking, it's not too difficult. Alright, I've figured out a solution for this "crying and wounding way", so hurry up and find the next one.With the addition of "Giotto" still in Darby's hands, the progress will not be slow..."

…………

Among the crowd, no one noticed that little Darby was uncharacteristically quiet today.

Chapter 557 The Returning Gambler Darby

Finally, without any strange interruptions, the members of the Dio Remnant Clan in San Francisco had a safe and peaceful dinner.

Due to its historical characteristics, the United States should not have any "traditional food" in principle. Instead, it is easy to find common food from all over the world and food styles from different countries in this immigrant country.

The collision of food cultures has resulted in many wonderful fusions. Although it is true that there are many strange foods that are unimaginable to those who know the original appearance of those foods, there are naturally some successful cases. This may be American specialties.

"As long as the seasoning is right, the lower limit of the food will not be too bad. After all, it is still very difficult to achieve the degree of obvious difference in the pursuit of taste and heat."

Mitu Xiaorui commented, and the evaluation of this dinner is not bad.

Originally, everyone was still thinking about which hotel they would stay in normally in the end, or find some other strange method, but the past experience seemed to make Ah Qiang come up with a more expensive method:

Buy a villa here in advance, so that when they come here, it is equivalent to owning a local private property.

The real food is the raw materials and semi-finished products prepared in advance. It is cooked by yourself, and the communication with ordinary people is minimized in the whole process, which can not only keep secrets, but also protect the safety of those people.

Of course, this trick can only be described by money ability... It is said that this idea was solved by the famous Mr. Joseph. When he set off, Ah Qiang could just bring the key and come here to live.

"Okay, let's take a rest here, I will go shopping and confirm the situation of this house again. We'd better have some backup means in case of emergencies."

After leaving such words, Nagjo Taro drove away, leaving space for the players.Basically, it is still smooth, but there is also a sense of violation to some extent. It can be seen that this should be the system temporarily arranging Jotaro to leave in order to give the players some time for reasonable communication.

...According to the perspective of ordinary players, it is probably true to think so.

But Raleigh knew that the system had never done this kind of thing before. It didn't have such thoughtful and detailed arrangements, or it had no intention of doing so at all.

Any of the previous dungeons, no matter what the situation was at the time, required communication between the players, and they would not deliberately let all the "NPCs" find a reason to go away, they would just continue to do nothing, causing the players In the end, he could only become a riddle person in the eyes of others, saying a lot of things that he couldn't understand at all.

Besides, does that "system" really have the ability to control the development of events and personnel actions in the dungeon?does it have

No.

Raleigh can basically guarantee that the system is not absolute at all. First, the interference is very small, and second, it is not impossible to bypass it...

Long story short, Raleigh decided that Jotaro's sudden departure was unreasonable, because to be honest, is there anything that needs to be specially purchased in this situation?It can't be said that he is buying tomorrow's meal.

So after chatting with the players for a while, Raleigh directly raised this point of view, thinking that Jotaro's reaction was somewhat strange:

"Although Ah Qiang always appears too calm most of the time, it is difficult to judge his emotions, but it is not completely untraceable."

Raleigh said: "For example, do you still remember that when he heard the news of the kidnapping of children, he reacted very excitedly; but after the little commotion just now, the Jotaro who met again didn't mention these things again. , and didn't seem anxious."

"So you think... Jotaro discovered something when we were in the game?"

Tomato understood and began to think.

"At that time...doctor, you should not have been arrested at the police station. At that time, Jotaro acted with you, right? Did you find anything?"

"Hmm... not sure, Captain. It's a little embarrassing to say it, but... that gentleman is too tall."

Hearing Raleigh's question, the little doctor recalled the situation in a somewhat delicate mood: "He seemed to be paying attention to protecting me, so my view was completely blocked by his body, and it was basically difficult to see what he was doing. What... but, I remember him stopping to look at something before getting in the car?"

"Uh……"

Well, it is true that if Jotaro's head stood there, it felt like the two little doctors could be blocked out of sight, and there was no way.

[Thinking is deadlocked, where did Jotaro go, and whether he found something that is inconvenient to explain to his companions, a new fog is gradually rising, Mitu knows, he should not continue to watch at this time]

The narration sounded in his ears, Mitu decisively took out his spinning top, and those strange lights lit up again in his eyes:

"Instead of thinking about it, why don't you let me verify it directly?"

………………

At this moment, Jotaro had already driven some distance away, and he really didn't do any shopping as he said, and there were very few shops that were still open after ten o'clock.

He drove all the way to a relatively remote area, and came to a bar that was open but not lit. After checking, he walked into the building:

"...Here I am, Darby. Alone, as you requested, and now it's your turn to show up as promised."

"Heh heh heh, as expected of Jotaro."

There was a sound of clapping hands, and the fire in the room lit up. The elder brother of the Darby brothers sat on the other side of the gambling table, his white hair like hay seemed to have lost any vitality, just like the time he had spent

Didn't see anyone else...

"Don't worry, I'm alone, I didn't make an ambush, and I didn't prepare any other helpers in advance."

Only his voice has changed very little, and it still feels the same as before.

"...Really? I remember that you don't seem to be such an honest guy, [it's not cheating if you don't get caught], that's what you believe in, right?"

Jotaro still remembers the difference between the gambler Darby and his younger brother, the younger Darby relies more on his stand-in ability, while the older Darby is confident in his deception.

"Heh, there's no need to lie to you about this, because what needs to be cheated has already been arranged in other aspects—it's better to say that I want to gamble with you, which is the biggest cheat, because you can beat me directly, right?"

Big Darby shrugged helplessly, and pointed to the chair next to him, where an unconscious boy lay there without any reaction.

"It's okay, Jotaro. You're a good guy, which made up for the huge disparity in strength between us. I only figured it out after the fact. You don't even need to be anyone involved. I just need to have any hostage. You will choose to bet with me, right?"

Straightening the boy's body, Darby looked at Jotaro and smiled meaningfully:

"Has it been 13 years... Then, let's hear that sentence again, Jotaro, you should remember the rules, right?"

"...ah, 'I bet my soul', so what are you going to bet with me? "

Chapter 558 The Returning Gambler Darby

Let me introduce, Danny D. Darby, whose stand-in name is "Osiris God", has the ability to draw out the soul of the opponent when he wins the game, and by the way, he has the effect of twisting the soul into coins.

It is no exaggeration to say that this stand-in ability is a complete inferior replacement of his brother, which is actually quite rare in JOJO.

Besides, even if you don't mention the problem of low allocation, although Darby's ability is very strong in a certain sense, the conditions for using it are too awkward-even if he can beat anyone in a gambling fight, how can he guarantee that others will fight against him? What about betting?

Obviously he doesn't have any coercive power to ensure that the bet happens, which also makes him a non-combatant. If he doesn't rely on deception or negotiation to drag people to the gambling table, he basically can't do anything in combat.

Of course, Darby himself knows this matter better than anyone else. Fortunately, he has a fairly clear understanding of Jotaro's thinking, and he is able to use hostages to achieve his goals:

Giotto, or any irrelevant person other than this child is actually fine. Under Jotaro's violent and arrogant character, there is a kind of good-natured mind. Even if he has never met someone, he will definitely choose to save it.

Yes, so just like back then——

The rare and useful thing about Darby's stand-in is that his ability activation will not disappear when he falls down.If one tried to eliminate him directly by means other than gambling instead of fighting with him, those souls that were sucked away would not return to their original place, but would return to the west with Darby.

It is worth mentioning that this one-sided statement is completely Darby, no one knows the truth, but Jotaro will not bet on this anyway, he chose to sit at the gambling table again.

"I accept your challenge, Darby."

Bearing the bad behavior of the other party involving children, Jotaro sat down across the gambling table. At this moment, he looked around in the dim light, and suddenly realized something:

'The arrangement of this room!It seems... exactly the same as back then? '

As time has passed, the specific situation has become less clear.But Jotaro remembered the last time he fought with Darby, the scene was actually in the open air, and now that kind of layout is mechanically copied into a closed room, it seems somewhat weird.

Dust shelters unique to desert regions, Egyptian-style decorations, and even dry sand?Has even the floating soil on the ground been restored...

"Sure enough... then you will take it. Then make an agreement here Jotaro: If you win, you can take this brat away safely, and I will raise the bet, and I will tell you about this time Everything I know about it. And you, bet your soul on it!"

"...Ah, I bet my soul. Let's go Darby, what do you want to compete?"

"Hmph... poker."

Looking at Jotaro's poker face that was no different from that of the past, Darby, who had changed too much, smiled nostalgicly, and took out a pair of playing cards with a red case on the reverse.

"We use poker to decide the outcome, just like 13 years ago, and the rules are the same as that time."

Have you done this? Now that this is the case, Jotaro can clearly see Darby's meaning: restore the scene as much as possible, the same style of cards, the same game rules...
