I can't lose to my ex today

Chapter64

"Charles Dickens, Britain's top supernatural power user, is also the most out-of-control British supernatural power user. He has committed crimes in many European countries, including the United Kingdom, and is a key wanted by the British government."

Edgar Allan Poe handed another document to Wujo Satoru, which recorded the few information so far about this mysterious and crazy person with supernatural powers.

"His supernatural ability is called 'Twin Cities', and its function is to bring out the evil side of human nature and devour the normal personality. Not long ago, the British government entrusted Mr. Doyle to track him down. During the confrontation, Mr. Doyle accidentally caught his supernatural ability, and his personality has been affected by this supernatural ability... You know, human nature always contains both good and evil. Perfect, even Mr. Doyle."

Gojo Satoru nodded in agreement with this:

"That's right, that English short is certainly not perfect."

Edgar Allan Poe: "...", I always feel that this person's understanding of the key points is off.

"So, when he almost hit me with his car, even though he braked in time, he activated his supernatural ability to paralyze my brain and indirectly caused me to have a concussion. It was also because of the 'evil' side of his nature at that moment. Being infinitely magnified?" Analyzing the situation that day in detail, Gojo Gojo shook his head puzzled, "Why does he have trouble with me, I seem to be a friendly passer-by at all!"

"...It's obviously the kind of existence that makes people want to drive to create the past after seeing it." Ellen Poe couldn't help complaining, and when he realized what he said, he immediately coughed twice and changed the topic away.

Ahem, I accidentally spoke my mind.

Gojo Satoru: "...", even the American Maine Coon cat is going to be bullied to him!

"In short, because of the influence of Charles Dickens' supernatural power, Mr. Doyle seems to have two personalities in his body who are constantly fighting and fighting each other. It seems that sometimes he becomes Sherlock Holmes, and sometimes he becomes Sherlock Holmes. Moriarty. Although he is working hard to defeat himself, the evil of human nature that has been led out and infinitely magnified still makes him lose control of his abilities repeatedly, and thus do many "evil things" that violate his principles. Although it is also possible Find a special ability person who can nullify the ability to relieve this pain temporarily, but it is not a long-term solution after all. Charles Dickens is always elusive, and seems to be eyeing Mr. Doyle, wanting to see Mr. Doyle immersed in it for a long time In this pain. Therefore, the way to completely eradicate is to capture Charles Dickens, and for this...Mr. Doyle is ready to die with him."

At the same time, this is also Charles Dickens' final challenge to Conan Doyle. After learning that he was invited to Yokohama, Japan to participate in the World Reasoning Writers Forum, he wanted to have a final duel with him here.

Gojo Satoru suddenly thought of the sentence that the English short said when he was leaving that day in the hospital [See you next time, Ms. Edogawa, at the agreed place]...The two of them were already in love at that time. Is there a consensus?When did they exchange codes, and it was still in front of him!

What to do, just thinking about it makes me feel even angrier.

"It's almost time." Poe glanced at the time, and it was time for the next step of the battle plan, "According to the arrangement of Chaos, it's time for you to go out to finish the work, and we will be responsible for transporting you into the hotel of."

The hotel is surrounded by a sensor system set up by Charles Dickens. Once any living body enters from the outside and is sensed, it will detonate the bomb installed in the building.But "The Black Cat of the Rue Morgue" is essentially a space-related supernatural ability. It is good to throw the non-living body's supernatural power into it first, and then the person who is teleported can come out of the novel.

Gojo Satoru: "Hmph, in the end, don't you still want me to deal with the enemies?"

Edgar Allan Poe: "No, Luanbu said that you are also included, just in case of double insurance, which is the so-called backup plan."

Gojo Satoru: "...", I understand, it's time to catch the cat and clean it up.

……

Suzuki Hotel Penthouse Suite——

"You deliberately arranged this 'game' in your mouth so that only ten people can pass the level, and set the rule that even if you fail to reach the top floor, if there are only ten survivors left after an hour, then these ten people It can also be seen as the winner taking a helicopter to leave... In this way, someone will be induced by you to use unscrupulous methods to become the winner."

Unhurriedly, Edogawa explained the intention of the rules of the game set by Charles Dickens.

Even if they can't reach the finish line, then it's enough to keep others from surviving... Fighting each other internally may be easier than relying on wisdom and luck to reach the finish line safely to grab these ten places.

"Hmph, that's right, under the influence of Mr. Doyle's supernatural ability, those people abandon thinking and act according to instinct, revealing the essence of human nature..." Charles Dickens said grimly, his eyes slanted Leaning at the screen on the wall, "Here, look, it's already started."

On the live monitoring screen, I saw that when Conan Doyle said the sentence "There are more than ten people here now", after everyone present was silent, finally, someone took the lead in making a move on the people around him!

And as one person takes the lead, the people around them also completely lose their rationality and restraint, fighting for their own "survival", and the indiscriminate chaos is about to begin.

Watching this scene, Charles Dickens sneered and clapped his hands.

Edogawa Ranpo said with a bored face:

"What's so funny about that, isn't it normal?"

The smile on Charles Dickens' face stopped, he turned his head to look at the girl who surprised him repeatedly, and asked with great interest:

"Don't you think it's ugly?"

"So what, the pursuit of survival is the instinct of human nature, and not depriving others of the right to survive in exchange for their own survival is the bottom line that many people can abide by under normal circumstances, but this is not applicable when facing life and death decisions... "

"Yeah, yeah, that's why I said...!"

"So..." Edogawa Ranbu interrupted the other party's words, and when he turned his head to look at the screen, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "So, at this time, we can still keep the bottom line, even if the mind can't think, it will still People who use their instincts to choose 'good' are even more commendable. There are not many such people, but there will definitely be none, otherwise... this world would be really too bad."

on the screen--

When a person with limited mobility was about to be hit by a falling heavy object, a pair of boys and girls suddenly came here from another passage. Seeing the scene in front of them, the girl did not hesitate and kicked In the past, kick the falling weight away.

"Lan, are you okay!"

Kudo Shinichi, who followed behind, hurried to his girlfriend's side, Mao Lilan shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

After being forced to participate in this "survival game", the two have been choosing their own route to move forward. The goal is very clear-to subdue the terrorist and end this ridiculous game of taking human life for fun.This is the most genuine choice between the two of them without any careful thinking.

But at this moment, when they walked into this room, they saw such a scene of people fighting each other.

At this moment, a man in the crowd wielding a long dagger he found somewhere, saw two more people "competing for living resources" getting in the way, and waved the dagger involuntarily Stab at the two of them.

Seeing this, Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan hurriedly dodged away, but the man wielding the dagger was about to step down the stairs and fall straight because he rushed forward too hard and failed to brake the car under his feet. go down!

At the critical moment, Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan stepped forward at the same time as if obeying their physical instincts, and grabbed the "survival quota contender" who was about to fall.

In the mutual killing of the audience, the two became the only saviors.

Even the rescued man looked at the two young men in disbelief.

After rescuing the man, when the surrounding people stopped fighting because of this amazing scene, Kudo Shinichi woke everyone up loudly:

"We competed with each other to compete for the 'survival quota', which was wrong from the very beginning! Our common enemy should be the man who called himself Jefferson! The rules of survival should never have been formulated like this !"

If you want to survive, you don't need to deprive others of their survival, but you should defeat the person who is trying to deprive everyone of their right to survive!

Conan Doyle watched this scene silently, watching the young man guide everyone present to regain the sense and kindness they should have as a human being, even though at this moment he was affected by the negative personality because of Charles Dickens' supernatural power , but still brought a smile.

I remember that last year, after a large transnational criminal organization was brought to justice, MI6 specially invited him, a psychopath, to participate in the interrogation due to the troubles encountered in interrogating the prisoners.And what he was interrogating at that time was a big star who was popular all over the world in the past. Who would have thought that the famous big star would have such an identity.

And that big star was finally arrested for saving a seven-year-old boy. The reason why he did this was because——

[Because, a young oriental Sherlock Holmes once told me, 'I don't know what reason is needed to kill someone, but there is no reason to save someone'. 】

Indeed...

So, look, Charles, psychics like us are not able to manipulate others at will.

And it is the human nature that you despise the most to crack such supernatural powers.
