Maki felt a buzzing in his head.

She reacted for a few seconds before realizing that the system was trying to make her hear what it was saying.

[Don't trust him. 】

The system simply and forcefully said, [He is lying to you. 】

"Why did he lie to me?"

[Why do people eat, why do celebrities want to be famous? 】The system said, 【Where are there so many why? The conclusion is that he is lying to you. 】

Maki also recovered from a moment of stupefaction.

She sensed that everyone around her was looking at her, or rather, at her and Lifa.

Lifa's hand was still pinching her collar.

Maki noticed that the hand was slender, slender and pale, with rounded nails and obvious blue veins on the back of the hand.Because of anger, now those blue veins are slightly arched, and the upper veins are constricted.

She took a step back, and with a little effort, she broke free from Lifa's hand.

Lifa's body host is obviously not as good as hers, and he doesn't have much strength in his hands, so she broke free easily, and he doesn't look very unwilling. The anger just now is like the Titanic that suddenly broke through the iceberg. The bow of the ship appeared briefly, and then was hidden behind layers of ice again.

He took a few breaths heavily, and continued to stare at Maki with slightly red eyes.

Maki didn't fully believe what he said.

But not completely disbelieving.

The system sensed her attitude, but it didn't say much - it knew better than anyone else what Maki looked like when she was really stubborn.

...as it is now.

"Why do you say that?"

Maki looked at Lifa seriously: "Do you know what my ability is?"

The word Lefa uses is "capability" and does not mention systems.

Maki didn't think that in the state just now, he could still change his words. That word must have come out of his mouth, that is to say, maybe Rifa didn't know the existence of the system at all.

So, why did he say that Maki's ability was snatched?

Maki frowned deeply.

Lifa's thin lips were trembling uncontrollably.

He seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't speak because of something.

He took a deep breath, and Maki could almost see the air quivering.

Maki asked again: "Is it because I 'robbed' your ability, so you can't destroy the world?"

Lifa trembled, as if he had been poked in some sore spot, and looked very shaken.

For some reason, Maki couldn't get angry with this person—although what he did was indeed too much, if it were Maki under normal circumstances, now Lifa should be lying there with the slightest wrist bleeding.

But now Maki is very calm.

She could even ask such a question in a serious manner, which made her feel that Lifa's words were more credible, because apart from guilt, Maki couldn't find any more reasons to prove why she was not angry.

However, this did not affect her poisonous tongue.

Maki: "No matter what the truth is, I just know it's definitely not my fault, in short, you are too weak."

Lifa, like herself, is not strong enough, this is the fact that Maki suddenly realized.Because he wasn't strong enough, he followed the crowd like now, and couldn't even do what he wanted to do.

Maki thought that Lifa would be angry and would continue to hit her.

But surprisingly, he didn't.

Even the angry look from before had disappeared from his face.Lifa pursed her lips and said, "You're right."

Maki blinked.

Lifa: "It's true that I'm not strong enough, but little girl, I'm a smart lunatic."

He smiled briefly.

Then, stepping on the mess on the ground, he quickly left Café Poirot.

He probably hasn't paid yet, so the waitress in the cafe looked hesitant, but due to his previous aggressive behavior, he finally did nothing.

Toru Amuro shook his head at the waitress, and said, "I'll put his things on the mat, and you can serve another cup of coffee to that lady."

Zhen Ji interrupted him: "No, I'll go right away."

Toru Amuro looked a little worried.

Logically speaking, a member of the Karasuma Group would not have such worries. For example, if Gin was here, he would probably just look at Maki coldly, and at most add a mocking sentence like "serve it".

Maki thought that although Toru Amuro is a member of the Karasuma Group, maybe he is still a good person.

At this time, the guest who just came in finally made a sound.

The voice was still a little familiar: "Sister Maki?"

Maki turned his head slowly, and saw the child standing by the door, a little boy with black-rimmed glasses——Edogawa Conan.

He looked full of doubts, probably wondering why Maki would stand here with makeup that looked like a different person, and overstayed his stay with a masked weirdo.

Maki paused.

Only then did she realize that she was wearing makeup - logically speaking, few people should be able to connect her with "Dazai Maki".Besides, she noticed that Edogawa might call her "Sister Maki", and when he saw this child before, he always called her "Sister Dazai".

The reasons for this are well considered.

"Dazai" is not such a common surname, but "Maki" is a very common name.

In other words, even in such a short period of time, the child deduced that Maki did not want others to know her identity.

Maki stared at him for a few seconds, and then smiled: "My name is Maria, kid, you probably mistook the person."

Then she took out a [-] yen ticket from her pocket and put it on the part of the table that was not wet: "The extra is used as compensation for the tip and the cup, sorry to have surprised you."

Amuro Toru and Conan stood together, watching Maki leave.

The waitress had gone to clear Maki's table, there was no one else around them.

Amuro said in a voice only the two of them could hear: "You know who she is."

Affirmative.

But Conan just shook his head.

Although Toru Amuro's true identity is the police officer who is undercover in the Karasuma Group, Conan can't guarantee that he and Maki really have no conflict of interest-and he himself doesn't know who Maki is.

However, Conan thought, it was because she saved him and Mao Lilan before.

He showed a smile that was so innocent that it was a bit fake: "I recognized the wrong person."

*****

Maki isn't sure if someone from the Karasuma Group is still watching her.

So she circled the tram for a day, and then, under the repeated guarantee of the system, she took off her makeup in a station bathroom, changed her clothes, and returned to Yokohama.

Along the way, Maki was thinking about Lifa's last words.

"He said he was a smart madman."

The system reminded her: [Maybe he was just talking harshly, you understand. 】

Maki pondered for a while.

In fact, she didn't think so. Although she and Lifa were basically strangers, she had an inexplicable "I know this guy very well" feeling towards him.

She always felt that something bad was going to happen.

So as soon as Maki came home, he liquidated all his remaining savings.

After upgrading to LV.7, she can already recharge remotely.

She sat down on the sofa and poured herself a glass of milk. Because Mr. Zhongya was not at home, the villa was a bit deserted, but this was not a bad thing for Maki—after all, she had just failed in her confession before, and Zhongya It was also awkward to meet.

Maki is now very curious about Edogawa Conan.

He doesn't look like a child at all. It's not that Maki has never seen a so-called young genius, but that kind of child is usually superior in a certain field. Superior.

She searched in her card library, but couldn't find the face of Edogawa Conan at all.

It stands to reason that this should not be true. All the special people around Maki are in her card library.

She frowned.

Then it suddenly occurred to her that the system had told her before that there were still a few SSRs in her card pool that she hadn't drawn yet.

Although it is definitely difficult to draw the desired card with his African luck, but anyway, he needs to prepare in advance, so Maki simply started drawing cards like this.

She thought for a while: "One million first."

System: [You are rich and powerful, host. 】

Maki shrugged.

Now Beidou's income has been very good, and she is also starting to open a branch, so naturally she will not be as tight as before.

But even though Maki is rich now, the loading of the system is still so slow.

Makiben wanted to get himself something to eat during the loading process, but the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

She turns on the phone.

It's Hitomi Mishima's phone number.

As soon as the connection was made, Hitomi Mishima's trembling voice came over indistinctly: "Look at the news!"

Maki frowned: "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Hitomi Mishima gasped, "Anyway, read the news quickly, something big happened!"

With some doubts, Maki took the remote control from the side, turned on the TV, and tuned to the NHK news channel.

When seeing the screen displayed after the channel jump, Maki instantly understood why Hitomi Mishima's voice sounded so flustered.

The mobile phone in his hand fell to the sofa with a "clack".

On the screen, behind the Miss anchor, was a clear photo.

The photos are well taken, as if they were made by some artist.

At the top is a huge red dragon, most of which are hidden in the thick mist, looking terribly permeable.

In the lower right corner of the picture, there is a girl with twin ponytails wearing a school uniform skirt—she stretched out her hand to the dragon with a dignified expression, as if she was trying to do something to the dragon.

This is not the most fatal.

The most terrible thing is that some of the characteristics of Maki's ability were spoken out from the mouth of the anchor lady——

"We have received testimony from relevant personnel that Dazai Maki's other personality is the ability to remotely amplify others. Combined with this photo, what she is doing is intriguing—"

People with normal IQ can hear what the anchor lady is implying.

Maki opened Twitter with trembling fingers.

Sure enough, the matter was trending upwards on Twitter, and it looked like it would reach the top in no time.

The silence spread for a long time before the system cautiously spoke:

【...Host, are you okay? 】

Maki shook his head, then said bitterly:

"I see now why Lifa said he was a smart lunatic - what a trick."

Obviously, this matter has been paved the way for a long time - only Dostoevsky can take photos from this angle. , they will still cooperate temporarily, like now.

Maki sat silently for a long time.

Just when the system thought she was about to go down like this, she suddenly sat up straight.

System: [Host? 】

Maki stood up.

She glanced outside, it was the sunset, the sunset was as red as blood, hanging half naked in the air.

She stared at the sunset for a long time.

"But he'd be naive if he thought I was going to get knocked down like that."

Lifa may not know that she still has the vest of "BaguaのLista".

This is nothing more than a public opinion war that is actually related to her future.

After Maki came to this world, she has fought countless public opinion wars.
