"That's because you're also there as my helper." Matsuda Jinpei also didn't like writing reports and clicked his tongue irritably.
"Uuh, this is your responsibility! You can't just let me be the one to write everything."
"We're doing half each, alright?"
Takagi looked at the two people bickering about the report and said enviously, "They have such a good relationship."
He glanced at Sato Miwako on the side and sighed in his heart.
"...Why do I have to be here?" No. 2, Kayama Ichiro looked at the report in front of him speechlessly.
"I have the same question." No. 9 raised her hand helplessly.
"We would like to see if you can recognize Three Rote. Inspector Megure is taking the pictures," Miwako explained patiently.
Kayama Ichiro let out a dry laugh. He didn't know how no. 3 appearance looked like right now. But if it's the fat drug dealer from before….
He might need to admit it.
No. 9 was calmer than Kayama Ichiro. Her experience of three years on the Black Side but had to side with the Red Side had tempered her psychological pressure endurance.
This allowed her to stay calm even when being interrogated.
Moreover, there were so many shootings she had to face as the FBI back then.
It was annoying if she had to say.
She didn't like working there and only preserved for the sake of the skill points.
Perhaps, many others were also thinking the same.
'I had to be thankful to whoever killed me back then. Otherwise, I'll have to arrange a death script, which would be extremely annoying.'
Inspector Megure came in with a stack of documents.
"Here it is. Do you recognize him?" Inspector Megure asked as he put down the information on the table.
The two people looked at the pictures and fell into silence.
How do they say this…
No. 3 looked like a fat wretched uncle…
Is this really an internationally wanted criminal?
Perhaps their doubts were too obvious, so Inspector Megure quickly explained, "This is the only picture of his face that can be seen clearly. And Three Rote is a famous shooter, not a close combat fighter. He'll stay far away, which is why people have difficulty catching him."
Shooter?
The two of them instinctively thought about no. 8 and no. 1. Although they didn't know what made the two of them so irritable and kept on fighting against each other, it was undeniable that their skills were basically unmatched.
…
[Megumi Aiko [4]: no. 3, do you have excellent sniping skills or something? Three Rote is said to have great shooting skills.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: Ahaha… the skills are at 85 after I got this identity. Shooting is 90 points… so I should say it's pretty good?
Undercover Agent from Metropolitan Public Security [7]: … Why am I suddenly feeling jealous?
Doctor [9]: It seems another method to get high skill points is to die repeatedly.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: … I'm sorry!
Artist [11]: Don't think about it. I don't want to die and just want to enjoy my life as an artist. If I have to participate in the main storyline, I think it'll be better for me to stay far away.
Journalist [12]: Uhh, I don't want to die either!
University Student [6]: I don't mind changing identity once again. Anyway, I just want to be around the handsome guys and if you really want to make those skills truly yours, you still need to practice, so I won't bother with it.
Megumi Aiko [4]: … Don't make us jealous, no. 3.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: I'm not!!! QAQ it's not my fault… it's the system settings.
Undercover Agent from Metropolitan Public Security [7]: But you still had the advantage.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: QAQ I'm sorry!
Doctor [9]: Anyway, should I recognize you, no. 3?
High School Student [2]: That's the question I want to ask too!
Public Security Officer [5]: No. 2, let them know that you have seen someone similar in the previous case. Your identity is connected to your three previous identities, no. 3.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: Huh? Really?
Public Security Officer [5]: Yes, they're all blood relatives.
Doctor [9]: So my conjecture is correct. When you die in a death script, you'll basically receive an identity that's connected to our previous identity. This will be a bit complicated.
Artist [11]: Seriously? I can't believe I'm still connected to that CIA agent… How does it work with both of us living in a completely different country and have different nationalities too?
Journalist [12]: … Great, my previous identity is from the Black Side. I won't be sanctioned, would I?
Public Security Officer [5]: It's not that simple and I'm waiting for no. 10 to get a new identity to confirm my conjecture. I'll tell you the result when I'm sure.
High School Student [2]: Alright. I'll just say that I feel he looks familiar.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: Haha, I wouldn't kill you unless you receive a death script, no. 2
High School Student [2]: Can you really kill someone? The previous time is No. 1 setting up the scene and the second time you're hiding behind your subordinates.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: …I'll figure out something.
Public Security Officer [5]: no. 9, have you ever treated any of these people? I'll send the list to your private message. If you do, then say that he looks familiar. Otherwise, just say that you don't recognize him.
Doctor [9]: … I met no. 3 in my previous identity, no. 5. I mean, his current appearance, the Three Rote. Because he used to be active in the US and I was involved in the case against him. But since that person is supposed to be my sister, I can't possibly admit it.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: Damn! I can't see the memories of my previous identity nor the current one aside from the system log. I don't know about this, no. 9.
Doctor [9]: And even though my sister is an FBI, I shouldn't have known of her existence…
Corrupted FBI [8]: I can set the drama if necessary. You look very similar to her and I have met her, so if no. 3 had to target you again, we can make a play.
High School Student [2]: Wow, it's rare to see you talk so much, no. 8!
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: That'll be a good idea. This time, let them focus on my previous identity that faced Conan.
Public Security Officer [5]: Ok. No. 2, no. 9, you two have fun.
High School Student [2]: Thank you, Vice Leader.
Doctor [9]: Thank you, no. 5]
…
"I don't recognize him." No. 9 shook her head first. Her role would be over right now and she didn't really want to be involved in more cases.
There were only troubles coming if she got too close to Conan.
No. 9 didn't like such trouble.
"I don't think I have seen him before, but he does look familiar," No. 2 replied while tilting his head slightly.
"Where?" Megumi Aiko looked like she was excited at finding clues.
Kayama Ichiro looked at Megumi Aiko speechlessly in his mind. Her acting is too exaggerated. With her usual lazy personality, it would be difficult for her to explain why she was so excited like this.
He didn't bother to remind her, though.
"I don't know, it's just a feeling." Kayama Ichiro shrugged.
"In that case, Student Kayama, have you been going to some specific places recently?"
"...How about buying game consoles?" Kayama Ichiro asked with some hesitation.
In order to shape his character, he had to follow several games and had a full understanding of those games. To be honest, he almost wanted to vomit whenever he thought about it.
But no. 5 told him to establish a personality outside that was convenient for their operation. For the sake of fulfilling the game progress, he could only endure it and accepted the arrangement.
Anyway, as an information dealer, he often had to set up different personas in order to bluff his enemies before.
In this life, he's only a high school student on the surface.
But he was secretly building his own power.
So, just liking games seemed to be quite normal.
"...I don't think it's that one."
But no matter what they asked, Kayama Ichiro would not admit going to some shady places. After all, he did sell information and earned a lot of other information from it.
Of course, he also made a lot of money.
'Ahhh… I won't be able to get more money for the next period of time.' Kayama Ichiro felt sad when he thought about this matter.
He was an orphan and it was difficult for him to do various things without money. But at the same time, he didn't have to worry about bothering others too.
It was just…
He didn't really want not being able to do his work.
But for now, it's indeed better to stay low.
