It's rare to see the system panicked, Zhe Nai felt a little strange, and the tension was diluted instead.

"Don't be in such a hurry... Akashi-kun should be fine."

"Even if it's the male lead, he will die if he gets caught by a shark." The system reminded hastily.

"Sudden accidents are not in any main and branch plots, so they can only be caused by too many coincidences in the player's exploration process.

"Any consequence caused ... the game will not take remedial measures."

The system thinks that this is enough to show the seriousness of the matter.

However, Zenai didn't seem to heed the warning. When he turned around, he was stung by the neon signboard that had just lit up across the street.

"Did the murderer really show up?"

She watched the vehicles passing through the road, and her mind gradually calmed down.

If Akashi was attacked by criminals here, it would be impossible for him to be dragged away quietly without making a sound—even considering the difference in force value, the sky was not completely dark at this time, and although there was no opposite side on the sidewalk Bustling, but just across a fence from the driveway, someone's sure to see it.

"Since no passers-by noticed, Akashi-kun should have left on his own initiative." Zenai made a judgment.

system:"!"

"Maybe it's because I left in a hurry, so I didn't have time to tell me, but I haven't found a chance until now... What is so urgent?" She continued while thinking.

If something happened to their family, someone would definitely be sent to pick up Akashi. He would always be free to leave her a text message while sitting in the car, right?

Without means of transportation...

She thought of a possibility: "He saw the murderer."

Even if it wasn't the murderer, it should be someone related to the case, at least, Akashi suspected.

As for what exactly he saw that caused him to have such doubts, leaving other things aside... She still can't figure it out for the time being.

The murderer will not put a label on the head, even in the game.

If he follows up... the impromptu tracking is full of various uncertainties, and if he accidentally catches the attention of the target, all previous efforts will be wasted.In this case, it may be difficult for him to find an opportunity to contact himself.

"What did you see?" Zenai returned her thoughtful eyes to the nearest alley behind her.

……can you?She looked at the double shadow cast by the tree shade and the wall, undecided.

She glanced at the phone, but there was no movement in the mailbox, and finally took a slow step forward.

The fences on both sides are very high, and there are discarded cardboard boxes and furniture scattered here and there. It is usually a place where wild cats gather. The smell of sewage and garbage is mixed, accompanied by one or two meows.But right now it is quiet, there is no shadow, and there is no wind.

It is like a barrier of the world separated from the bustling market outside.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the atmosphere is surprisingly weird.

Zhe Nai unconsciously clenched the phone, and after moving two steps, not wanting to bear the overly oppressive atmosphere, she tapped the screen with her index finger and lifted it up to illuminate it.

The dim light blurred the ground, and further highlighted the dark shadows behind the stacked cardboard boxes.She walked towards the corner step by step, raised the angle of the phone, and let the light of the flashlight follow the trend to explore the corner.

...illuminated a mass of blackness that flowed from the wall to the floor.

Zenai: "...wow."

The sound of the system in the brain is comparable to a fire alarm: "Ahhhhhh—"

She stared at the bloodstains on the ground for a while, then slowly raised her eyes, staying on the face of the corpse for a second, two seconds.

Zhe Nai's suspended heart fell back: "I said that Akashi-kun would not be so unlucky."

Although there are many male protagonists to choose from in the game, someone like Seijuro Akashi must be the chosen one in this world.

"...Is this the time to joke?"

The level of calmness of the players makes the system amazing.

But she knew that this was just the surface, and she stood there for a while before walking back slowly.Although she had some psychological preparations, the shocking blood at the scene still made her a little weak.

Soon, the warm-toned sunset glow fell in front of the field of vision again, adding a little blood to the girl's cheeks, but unfortunately there was not much warmth.

Zhe Nai accidentally sprained, and before he fell down, the hand stretched out from behind firmly held his arm and helped him up.

"Be careful."

The gentle and elegant voice sounded familiar. She came back to her senses, looked back, and raised her eyelashes following the residual warmth in the palm of her arm.

In an instant, the sound of driving engines on the street and the conversation of pedestrians on the zebra crossing at the intersection filled her ears again, and she was pulled back into the normal game world again.

"Senior Ice Room..."

The older young man smiled slightly, and the moles at the corners of his eyes seemed to be shining brightly under the sun: "Why did you suddenly appear here... I was shocked. I heard from Dun that your sense of existence is a little thin. Where?"

No, maybe because in the game this is where the two scenes meet.

Zhe Nai's lips moved slightly, and he was hesitating how to explain, when he heard a voice from behind:

"Kuroko!"

The two looked together, and Himuro quickly stood up straight and nodded to the other side.

Across the road, Vulcan waved at them, holding a paper bag marked M in his other arm, which was full and wobbly against his chest.

When the red light passed, Zhenai also felt much better, and nodded towards the ice room.Iceburo withdrew her questioning gaze, and naturally let go of her arm, took a step back, and opened a safe distance again.

"Tatsuya, you...know each other?" Vulcan asked hastily while stuffing the hamburger that was about to fall out of the paper bag.

"Well, it's a friend of the younger generation." Himuro replied with a smile, "Why, so you also..."

"Ah yes, what a coincidence, she and I—" Vulcan nodded, looked at Zenai, and was about to explain to him, but she stretched out her hand seriously, grabbed his sleeve, and pulled the The words are cut off.

"Vulcan Lord, you came just in time."

Vulcan was taken aback, and found that the other party's fingers seemed to be very cold, and a pair of thick eyebrows frowned: "What's wrong? You just—"

Zhe Nai regained his composure, loosened his clothes, and pointed behind him.

"The missing victim has been found, he..."

Before they finished speaking, the two had already guessed the following from the girl's stiff expression, and their expressions changed in an instant.

She swallowed hard, but said it anyway.

"He is dead."

It was completely dark when they came out of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Zhe Nai didn't expect to experience this in a love game, rubbed his forehead, and was a little dazed.

The first person to discover the body is always the most likely to be suspected, and the police are even more reluctant to let go of a clue for this kind of serial murder.If it weren't for that murderer who always liked to stab people with scissors, and left the scene bloody, leaving wounds running through the corpses, making it hard for everyone to believe that a weak woman can do this, she might have to be interrogated even more Long.

However, she is not the first to stumble across the "death scene".

The system's nervousness toward Akashi was a little strange, and Zenai was also worried that something had happened to him, so he told several police officers about his guess.When they heard that it was the young son of the Akashi family, they also attached great importance to it, sent someone to contact his father, and comforted her: "If it is Master Seijuro, you should be able to deal with the murderer for a while..."

It seems that his reputation has spread to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Do these policemen trust Akashi so much?

Zhe Nai pretended to sigh solemnly: "I thought so too, but just now I had some conflicts with Akashi-kun... How should I put it, he may be affected by a little emotion..."

Of course it's impossible, just to scare them.

Sure enough, everyone was shocked when they heard it, and they all looked sideways: So after the young master quarreled with his girlfriend, he bumped into the murderer again!

Too bad, Akashi-kun!Frustrated in love, I lost my face to the Metropolitan Police Department!

system:……

"Are you relying on Akashi's high favorability, are you not afraid that he will deduct points from you?" It asked suspiciously.

Zenai: "Anyway, he doesn't know."

In short, with the police going to track down Akashi's whereabouts, she can finally feel relieved.

Ice Room calmly raised his arm and poked Vulcan.

Vulcan just came back to his senses, followed his gaze to look at Zhe Nai, but didn't see much emotion, but immediately noticed that her lips were a little pale.

In fact, unlike what they imagined, Zhenai knew the possible identity of the murderer better than everyone else.Because of this, she was even more confused.

The current case is not consistent with the content given by the player "Cheng" in the guide. In addition to the "scene" I saw with my own eyes just now, there are many details that do not match.

For example, the murderer Cheng caught was only interested in cute-looking boys, not so much an act of revenge or hatred against a certain group, but more like a strong perverted interest.

This also makes sense, after all, it is a plot line opened by different players, and the game system may have adjusted the data and changed the specific plot.In addition, it is not ruled out that someone used the name of "super high school-level murderer" to commit the murder.

Zhe Nai was lost in thought, his eyebrows were unconsciously knit together, and suddenly a warm weight fell from his shoulders.She was startled, and looked up to see Vulcan's serious face.

He put the coat he had just taken off on her and coughed softly.

"Well, your friend... Akashita, he should be fine." Kagami was not skilled in comforting people, and was struggling with what to say, Zena nodded calmly and gave him a shallow smile.

"I'm not that worried about Akashi-kun. Even if he faces the murderer head-on, with his ability, he won't be caught without a fight. It's uncertain who will win."

She waved the "Hello" system in her mind to the corner, and said solemnly: "I was just wondering...whether we will be preempted."

Vulcan: "Huh?"

"Catch the murderer." She reminded, holding her chin worriedly, "Isn't this our previous goal?"

——If Akashi solves it first, what about her reward?

The club selection and assessment in a week's time is imminent!There is no time left for her to slowly build up her stamina!

system:"……"

The point is completely wrong, right? !

Ice Room was slightly surprised, and looked between the two of them, a little funny: "So you were discussing this kind of thing? Is this too dangerous? Even if I am a preparatory student now..."

"There's no way around it." Vulcan said bravely, "Whoever asked my teammate was that Aomine, he insisted on a fight with me to see who catches the murderer first—— But the challenge of blocking a man's dignity, I can't admit defeat to him, right?"

"Get along well with your classmates, big me." Himuro sighed.

That being said, the two have known each other for so long, and they already know each other's temper very well.

To do the same thing, Ice Room himself would not take the initiative to admit defeat.He didn't object anymore, but just moved his eyes away and looked at Zenai softly.

"Forget about the matter between you, at least don't involve the cute girl?"

Vulcan didn't speak, and his expression turned serious.

He secretly glanced at his eldest brother, a little confused.No way, this feeling...is exactly the same as when Chen also flirted with girls intentionally or unintentionally!

Vulcan pondered for a long time, then approached Zenai in a jiffy, and whispered to her while walking in the ice room on the other side, "I'm sorry, Kuroko, your relationship with Akashi is... not what we imagined, is it?"

Zhe Nai glanced at him calmly: "What is Vulcan Lord thinking?"

"Uh, it's—"

"I feel a little dirty thinking."

Vulcan: "No!"

"Well, I have nothing to do with him." Zenai said, sighing deeply, "If it's Vulcan-kun, it's fine to tell you. Actually, Akashi-kun—"

"Huh?" Vulcan said solemnly.

"He insisted that I look a lot like his ex-girlfriend Bai Yueguang, and wanted to—"

Vulcan: "!!"

Vulcan Master, I suddenly remembered the best-selling romance novel in bookstores recently: "After the white moonlight who crossed over to become a domineering president, I became the richest man in the world by relying on the support contract"... something.

His expression became subtle.

Zhe Nai's expression was more subtle, and he looked sideways: "I didn't expect Lord Vulcan to read this kind of novels, what a girly heart I didn't expect."

"Isn't this the latest book by the famous 'Super High School Level Literary Girl'?" Vulcan scratched his head, "I just returned to China, and I'm not familiar with many of them, so I just want to adapt to Japanese culture..."

"Ah, such a thing, Vulcan-kun really doesn't understand Japanese culture."

"Then what do you say you should watch?"

"Well……"

Don't ask, just ask "No Longer Human".

The author has something to say :(.

Note: The author of Disqualification in the World is Osamu Dazai. I saw it in a certain book of Literary Girls many years ago, and I am still deeply impressed. It feels full of the depressive style of Japanese classics...
