Live Kexue in Kexue World

=========================

Suzuki Foundation Imperial Hotel Tokyo.

This is the most luxurious hotel under the Suzuki Consortium. It is not so much a hotel as it is a large-scale comprehensive luxury entertainment city established by the Suzuki Group in Tokyo, where every inch of land is expensive.

You can see independent art exhibitions here, and the upper floor of the exhibition full of humanistic atmosphere may be a magnificent banquet hall. The palace where art and inspiration meet is adjacent to the Vanity Fair dotted with gold coins and martinis. It is difficult for any place to have both. everything.

The location of the charity dinner was set on the top floor of the Suzuki Foundation Imperial Hotel in Tokyo.

Due to the notice of the strange thief Kidd, the police quickly deployed defenses and restricted the entry and exit of personnel to the greatest extent. Now those who are present are either really here for the exhibits, or they have invited letters to witness the style of the strange thief.

The building was crowded with reporters, abruptly turning the abnormal charity dinner into some kind of press conference.

High-end cars parked at the door one after another, and the chaebol who walked out were wearing Savile Row tailor-made suits or luxurious mink evening dresses. Even if they were not the protagonists of this spotlight event, they still showed the aura of a metropolis.

Among the celebrities, Wakabayashi Chunliang in a white shirt and black trousers seemed particularly out of place.

There is no way, he has no extra money to buy clothes.

The money in the suitcase had been exchanged for auction chips in advance by him.This outfit was already the outfit he managed to cobble together after calling Hattori Heiji and asking him to predict the final payment of the potion in advance.

By the way, Hattori Heiji was bitter about his failure to confess his love to Toyama and Ye, and asked Wakabayashi Haruyo how long the shelf life of this bottle of potion would be, and would it lose its efficacy if left for too long? Not enough for him to wait until the next confession.

Heiji and Hakuma Tan can only be persuaded that they are like two extremes, one explains metaphysics with scientific thinking, and the other explains science with metaphysical thinking.

In the end, he could only say that he couldn't guarantee whether it would be effective after leaving it for too long, but he could contact and place an order if there was such a need.

What made Ruobayashi Haruliang a little embarrassed was not only the dress requirements brought about by the size of the charity dinner, but also the time it was held.

Dinner Dinner, as the name suggests, is held in the evening.

And as long as it is night, even if it is because it is not time to fall asleep, Schrödinger's sanity check is not required, the effect of the thing lodged on him will be enhanced.

This also led to Ruo Lin Chunliang hiding in the corner of the hall alone before the banquet officially started, trying to avoid contact with others.

Otherwise, if you encounter a crazy one, all the participants will be indescribable before the auction starts, that would be bad.

"But didn't Kaitou Kidd say that he would steal all the gems at the scene? You can actually squat outside the banquet and shake hands with him friendly after he comes out. When people go crazy, let alone colorless gems, that pile of gems It's all yours."

The black cat's speech was still simple and rude. The cat got a red bow tie from somewhere and wore it around its neck. Even though no one else could see it, it still put on a proud posture and stood beside him. .

Ruolin Chunliang has been able to skillfully ignore its outrageous proposal, declined the waiter who wanted to come forward to help, and waited quietly with the small remote control for bidding and the booklet he received before entering the hall.

Finally, the charity dinner began.The hanging ornate ceiling lights were slowly extinguished, and two clusters of staggered follow-up lights hit the front of the big screen, and a beautiful lady in a tight-fitting little black dress came onto the stage.

"Dear guests, welcome to the Suzuki Consortium Imperial Hotel Charity Auction. I am the auctioneer for tonight. All items for tonight's auction are registered in the book, and you can check them yourself. The proceeds of this auction will be fully paid Donate to charity and thank you for your participation.”

The auctioneer paused for a moment, then showed a bright smile,

"Then, without further ado, I announce that the auction is officially over—!"

As soon as the voice fell, the follow spot lights went out.

Finally started... wait, what did she just say?

The auction is officially over?

There was an uproar at the scene, and the people holding the goblet whispered to each other, as if they were surprised that the Suzuki consortium had invited an unprofessional auctioneer, but soon, their surprise changed.

In the darkness, someone shouted, "It's Kidd—!"

"Kidd? Phantom Thief Kidd?"

"Where is he?"

"Auctioneer! That auctioneer!"

"But isn't that a beautiful woman!"

"..."

There was commotion at the scene, the door was pushed open with a bang, and the police who were guarding the scene finally arrived late.The chandelier was lit up again, and the people present looked at each other in blank dismay, and the auctioneer on the stage had disappeared.

"Damn it!" The head of the police department cursed twice, and quickly issued an order on the pager, "Security to all exits, and the rooftops must be watched, and Kidd must not be allowed to escape!"

All this happened too fast, Ruolin Chunliang in the corner was still holding the remote control, looking at the jewels in the booklet in a daze.

"The strange thief...isn't it stealing? Why do I think his behavior...is a bit too artistic?"

The black cat is no better than him, but he has a firm grasp on the key point: "Aren't you going to chase him?"

"It's not that anxious, is it?"

"Look at the task panel?" The black cat felt a little strange instead.

The task panel that had been left in the corner was updated at some point, and Ruobin Chunliang brought it out.

[Survival mission: The night covered my eyes, but I used it to find light]

[Mission Difficulty: Very Difficult]

[Task Requirement 1: Get the Colorless Gem Auctioned in Tokyo]

[Task Requirement 2: Propagating the Great Mysticism to the audience]

[Mission description: You have always wanted to solve your physical problems. Finally, Professor Haruyo Wakabayashi from Miskatonic University gave you a suggestion to get the colorless gem, otherwise there will be one less genius wizard and one more victim in the world. ■■■A lunatic who violates. 】

[Task Reward: "Dante Chen" who restores sanity x1, new character card x1]

[Mission countdown: 38 hours and [-] minutes]

After seeing that change, Ruolin Chunliang was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood.

His expression became serious.

This was the first time he encountered a situation where the task was refreshed midway, and the task time changed from the previous question mark to the exact time.But there are traces to follow, and the only thing that can limit the time for him to complete the task is his own situation.

The thing lodged in his body has grown stronger and stronger. If he doesn't want to be turned into a walking dead with zero sanity, he must complete the task within a certain period of time!

Obviously, this certain period of time refers to four hours and 38 minutes.

The black cat was a little surprised that he hadn't noticed this, and there wasn't any reminder from the VIP audience.

Ruolin Chunliang quickly calmed down.

Since the time is limited, the things to be considered in the future must be determined in advance-so far, he has not been able to remember what kind of existence ■■■ is, can he curb its lodging as long as he gets the colorless gemstone?

Or what kind of procedures do you need to go through?

"Of course there must be a certain way to use it, but the task only requires you to get the gems." Black Cat said, "As long as you change the card immediately after completing the task, the knowledgeable professor of mysticism will naturally know what to do."

"That also requires the 'object of operation'. After I switch the character card, isn't there only 'Wakabayashi Haruyo' left?"

"It's different this time," the black cat tutted, "I wanted to explain it after you got the gem, well, it doesn't matter if you tell Dante Chen now - after you get the gem, you still need to go back to the occult affairs So, switch the character card there and let Wakabayashi Haruliang complete the follow-up ceremony. Only in the Mystic Studies Office are multiple character cards allowed to exist at the same time, at least for now."

"I hope you can make this kind of thing clear from the beginning," Ruolin Chunliang was sure that it must be intentional.

It is not the first time that it has done these things that caught him off guard, and he is sure that his voice has carried an obvious warning, "I don't need a little system assistant who can't do its duty, you should know that this The function can be turned off."

The black cat immediately balked, and meowed twice in a flattering way, "Okay, Naia knows~!"

Then, it said: "So, there are less than five hours left, and it may take a few hours to get to Mihua Town from here. Trainee wizard Dan Techen, what are you going to do now?"

If Lin Chunliang looked up at the messy scene, the police department angrily ordered the police officers to investigate, the unlucky police officers ran around, and finally got a "Forget it, you useless guy, you should go to the gate." Keep it up" conclusion.

There was no good information coming from the pager, and the strange thief pretending to be an auctioneer had already blatantly disappeared from their sight.

Relying on the police is not realistic.

He took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and said, "I want to use the "divination" skill to locate Kidd in real time. "

The black cat smiled slyly, and confirmed to him as if he had been waiting for a long time: "After using this skill, the sanity value in the range of 1-5 will be deducted. The clearer the problem, the higher the deducted value. Are you sure you want to use "Divination"? "

Ruolin Chunliang: "Confirm."

"Then, trainee wizard Dan Techen, your basic skills as a wizard are very solid. Even though you haven't performed "divination" for a long time, you still carried out your actions proficiently.

"But due to the impact of ■■■ on the body, when communicating with the world, you feel several distinct lines of sight, beyond time, space, and all latitudes, those great beings are watching you without any malice. Under such a gaze, you feel an irresistible trance.

"This kind of trance makes you almost forget your existence as a human being, and you can only follow your instincts, and you are about to cross the border and step into another unknown area shrouded in shadows. But fortunately, your remaining human circle restrains your soul, When you come to your senses, the divination is over.

"A level-A divination allows you to get the action route of Kaitou Kidd as you wish."

Dan Techen's information was immediately refreshed on the panel——

【Divination A is used successfully】

[Updated data... sanity: 25/30]

At the same time, a conspicuous red dot appeared on the newly pop-up three-dimensional map, and the target marked as KID was moving outward rapidly.

Enduring strong discomfort, Ruobayashi Chunliang carefully distinguished the three-dimensional map composed of grids. Except for the red KID, other conspicuous reference objects were also marked with blue notes.

He finally saw where Kidd was—it was in the hotel, and he was descending rapidly.

He's in the elevator!

But the hotel is full of police officers conducting investigations. If they encounter people who try to leave immediately, they will definitely stop them for questioning.

Then, Ruo Lin Chunliang suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly remembered something, and the words in his heart were one step faster than his thoughts: "Unless he is..."

[Good-hearted Russian: Unless he is the police officer who was scolded by the police department 2 minutes ago and asked him to go to the gate immediately to guard. 】

Throwing aside all the remote control and brochures in his hand, Ruolin Chunliang unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, and rolled up the cuffs of his shirt.

The rare formal attire made him look much more energetic than usual. After combing his hair to the sides, his entire fair face was revealed, except for his black eyes that were still opaque.

He walked out quickly, and showed a shy and apologetic smile when he met the police officer who stopped him for questioning, "I'm sorry, it's just such a contact, it shouldn't be a big problem."

The police officer looked puzzled, but the young man didn't explain much.He tapped the other person's shoulder without hesitation, and then walked around the trembling police officer who couldn't move.

The wind brought his soft voice—

"Just pretend that you just encountered a disgusting nightmare."
