I don't want to be an elf!

"But what benefits will this bring you? You obviously have a legion of clones and the ability to easily crush the Armed Detective Agency, so why do you have to do such a troublesome thing?"

"..."

"So, Miss Nightmare, the reason why you let us take in that girl is not to cooperate with her to destroy the detective agency, right?"

Looking at the silent Tokisaki Kurumi, Atsushi Nakajima's self-confidence increased a little, and he imitated the appearance of several seniors in the detective agency and reasoned: "Even if you really want us to take in that girl, the purpose Nor will it be collaborating with her to disintegrate the detective agency."

"Oh? If that's the case, what guess do you have?"

"My guess?"

Atsushi Nakajima was stunned, and after some serious thinking, he said, "My guess is that you want to mislead us into treating that child as a spy, and then get rid of her with the help of the Armed Detective Agency."

"A logical reasoning." Tokisaki Kurumi nodded lightly, "That's right, you have seen through my second-level plan, and you are indeed the person that Mr. Dazai is looking for."

"Ha...thank you for the compliment..."

Although praised by the enemy, Atsushi Nakajima did not look happy at all.

Truth, really?

Looking at Kurumi Tokisaki, who looked calm and didn't look like his conspiracy had been exposed at all, Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.

Could it be that he missed any important clues?

Recalling the information about Bandage III and Tokisaki Kurumi, and recalling the knowledge and experience taught to him by the seniors of the Armed Detective Agency, a storm of thoughts was brewing in Atsushi Nakajima's mind.

Something is not right.

Nightmare must have another purpose.

The reason for getting rid of Bandage Three with the help of the Armed Detective Agency seems impeccable, but is it really the case?

After all, it is impossible for the armed detective agency to kill people, let alone kill the people they saved.

Could it be that Nightmare doesn't know this?

Does she really...don't know?

No!She must know!

She knows we can't kill people!But still sent that girl over!

Her purpose was not to let that child die at all!

With the appearance of a breakthrough, a corner of the truth shrouded in fog seems to be revealed.

"Your purpose is not to kill the girl with the help of the Armed Detective Agency, because you know we don't kill people, even bad guys."

Feeling closer and closer to the truth, Atsushi Nakajima became more and more excited, and his tone was a little fluttering: "What's more, she is just your clone. Compared with the troublesome method of killing people with a knife, it would be easier for you to deal with her directly." Quick! Your purpose is not to kill her, but..."

"Rather?"

Nakajima Atsushi who was talking about the excitement suddenly stopped.

As if something was blocking his throat, his expression became confused, as if confused by his own reasoning.

"Your purpose is not to let her die, but...to protect her?"

As soon as the words fell, he was amused by himself.

Just because I think my reasoning is too absurd.

Nightmare, one of the most dangerous people in the port mafia, a natural villain who was equal to that Akutagawa Ryunosuke on the first day of joining the organization, not only had no intention of killing the betrayal clone, but even sent it to the safe place?

How can this be?

At this moment, Bandage Three's face appeared in Atsushi Nakajima's mind again.

The bandage three represents the kindness of Tokisaki Kurumi, but does the nightmare necessarily represent the evil of Tokisaki Kurumi?

Even if it is...does it have to be pure evil?

"Your avatar betrayed you because of different ideas, but you still have good intentions in your heart. In the name of execution, you actually drove her to the armed detective agency, and let that noisy and innocent girl be supervised by the armed detective agency." .”

Atsushi Nakajima spoke out his final reasoning, and looked at Tokisaki Kurumi in disbelief: "Are you really a good..."

However, before the last word was uttered, seeing the smile on Tokisaki Kurumi's face became more and more dangerous, Atsushi Nakajima, who felt the approach of death, swallowed the last word wisely.

"Have you said enough, detective?"

Kurumi Tokisaki smiled, but his voice was softer than ever before: "If you don't want to die of thirst, just say less and save your saliva. There is no drinking water for you here."

"Yes......"

Atsushi Nakajima shrank his neck in fear.

Why are you angry?

Just now she clearly said that she is a good person, but why can't it be said by him?

It can't be that Nightmare is really a good person, right?

This guess is so absurd, even if it was Atsushi Nakajima himself who deduced it, he didn't believe it.

But looking at the appearance of the nightmare, it doesn't seem to be fake...

There seemed to be an ant crawling in Atsushi Nakajima's heart, as long as he didn't find out the truth, his heart would always itch and make people uncomfortable.

After a long time, when Tokisaki Kurumi's 'kind' smile gradually disappeared, he tentatively asked: "Miss Nightmare, are you really a good person?"

In an instant, the killing intent that had disappeared burst out again.

Feeling the killing intent overflowing in the air, Atsushi Nakajima's face instantly turned pale.

Tokisaki Kurumi, who was approaching step by step, was reflected in the frantically shaking pupils.

"Am I a nice guy? Interesting question."

Tokisaki Kurumi stood in front of Atsushi Nakajima, the shadow under his feet merged into the darkness of the cabin, turning every inch of shadow into her domain.

In the shadows, pairs of golden and red eyes opened, peeping at him from all directions like a predator, making him feel like he was in a cage.

"Since you're so smart, you'll definitely get the answer to this question soon...well, soon."

Chapter 79 The Eve of the End of the Stage

North America, New York, combined headquarters.

In an office covered with a luxurious red carpet, a man in a white suit sat on a chair at his desk, staring at the photo in his hand.

In the photo is a young but haggard woman sitting on a hospital bed.

"My love, please give me a little more time."

The man's clear blue eyes revealed a bit of sadness. He gently stroked the face of the woman in the photo with his right hand, and said in a low voice, "Soon, soon our daughter will return to us."

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald.

It's a man's name.

As the leader of the group, the leader of a well-known supernatural organization in North America, the man standing at the top of the pyramid of the capital world, his world had no communication with orphans like Atsushi Nakajima who came out of the orphanage.

It wasn't until one day that the leader of the underground intelligence organization [Rat in the Dead House] contacted him, claiming that there was a way to resurrect his daughter, that the worlds of Fitzgerald and Atsushi Nakajima finally intersected.

At first, Fitzgerald thought it was another trick by the mice, and didn't pay attention.

His daughter died in an accident when she was young, and his wife suffered a mental breakdown as a result.

It's no secret.

He once even harbored hope to find people with supernatural powers who could treat mental illness all over the world, but it cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and the recruits were either liars or traitors.

And a second-rate organization like the Rat of the Dead House said they had a way to resurrect humans?

Even if he hadn't worked in the financial world, it was impossible for him to believe such outrageous things.

What really changed his mind, however, was a conversation with another organization.

He was shocked when the mystical supernatural organization [Clocktower Attendant], who was far away in England, contacted him for the first time and told him that the rat in the house of death was not lying.

Although he is the leader of the combination, the combination is more like a money-making machine than an academic and combat-type supernatural organization.

He doesn't have a deep understanding of the supernatural world, and in this regard, the clock tower servant is an expert.

So, the leaders of the three organizations held a meeting.

During this meeting, Fitzgerald learned a secret kept from the world.

【Book】

So the bell-tower attendant called it.

There is a book in this world, a book that can change reality.

As long as you write a logical request or wish in the book, the book can turn this fantasy possibility into reality.

Naturally, Fitzgerald didn't believe in such a thing...until the leader of the Rats of the House of Death put a page of the book in front of him.

He was shocked.

Immediately afterwards, his body and mind were occupied by ecstasy.

As long as he gets this book, no, even if he only gets one page of it, he can summon the possibility that 'the daughter didn't die because of the accident' from the book, distort the reality, and fundamentally heal his wife's spirit trauma.

If it weren't for the page of the leader of the House of Dead Rats, it was still almost full, and he even wanted to snatch it.

Then, the leader of the Dead House Rats tells him that he knows the clues to the book.

And this clue is related to Atsushi Nakajima.

The Clocktower Attendant is the official supernatural organization of the United Kingdom, and they cannot come forward directly. The Rat of the House of Death is hidden in the shadows, and it is inconvenient to move. They need to form such an internationally influential supernatural organization to come forward for them Dun got it.

Fitzgerald agreed without hesitation.

It has been nearly two months since the bounty was launched, and when he could hardly sit still and wanted to do it himself, the port mafia finally sent good news.

Atsushi Nakajima was caught.

Although the news came at night due to jet lag, he was not only not annoyed by being interrupted, but was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

After confirming the target with the Bell Tower Attendant and the Mouse of the Dead House, Fitzgerald handed over half of the bounty.

As a qualified businessman, paying in advance before receiving the goods is something he avoids as much as possible.

However, the other party was the port mafia, an unreasonable black and evil force. If they did not pay, they would not let him go, so Fitzgerald could only pay in advance.

In anxiety, he looked forward to watching the satellite image uploaded from the computer, watching the ocean-going freighters getting closer and closer to North America, and only hoped that time would pass faster.

Faster.

The future of his daughter's resurrection and his wife's recovery is close at hand, making this tens of billions-dollar billionaire look forward to the future like a young man just entering the workplace.

Just then, the bell rang.

"what's up?"

"Boss, good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"Let's hear the bad news first."

"Atsushi Nakajima was kidnapped."

"..."

The strong psychological quality prevented Fitzgerald from losing control of his emotions in the first place. Instead, he calmed down and asked calmly, "What happened? Do those guys from the port mafia want to get two bounties?"

"No, the person who intercepted the cargo was not the port mafia, but the armed detective agency."

"Why do people from the Armed Detective Agency know the route and ship I arranged?"

"I don't know about it. It may have been leaked by the port mafia, or it may have been inferred by them. It is said that they are a very evil detective agency."

"It really won't go so smoothly..."

Fitzgerald sighed. "So what's the good news? It'd better be really good news."

"[Moby Whale]'s pass order has been issued, and the craftsmen and apprentices in the organization are all ready and ready to go at any time."

"Yes, this is the best news I heard today."

Fitzgerald's frown gradually faded away, and he smiled sincerely.

"Notify everyone and leave immediately."
