Chapter 111: It’s okay to figure out the title with just a few fingers.
"Hello, your name."
Behind a desk, an office worker in a suit kept writing something on a form with the title "Gene Competition Registration Form", lowered his head and asked the person in front of him.
"Ah? Didn't you recognize me?" The suspicious-looking Huang Mao standing in front of this desk raised his eyebrows and pointed at himself with his thumb, "The legendary duelist, the undead who controls the black dragon.
, Conqueror of Destiny, No. 1 on the list of the most troublesome teachers at Doshino High School, Katsuya Jonouchi, this is me!"
However, Jonouchi's passionate self-introduction could not make the office worker's mood fluctuate at all. He raised his head and looked at Jonouchi and said: "There are not so many names to fill in the form, and we can only sign up for one person at a time."
"Ah, no, no, just fill in the name Katsuya Castle, 'Katsuya Castle', um." Jonouchi quickly explained, watching the office worker fill in his name.
"Then what is the date, month and day of birth?"
"January 25, 1984."
After writing office worker on the form, he quickly calculated that Jonouchi's current age was exactly 17. At the same time, he also realized that the other party was almost stuck because of his age and could not participate. However, there was still no big emotion on his face.
Instead, he operated a device the size of a rice cooker next to him with eyes as calm as a dead fish.
With a "click" sound, a crack opened on the edge of the strange device, revealing a small slot. The size was just enough to put a deck of cards in it, and the office worker also stretched out his hand to signal Jonouchi to put his deck in.
Put it in there.
At the same time, as if he had memorized it many times, the office worker explained to Jonouchi skillfully: "Considering that after the gene competition is held, both the youth group and the adult group will become new blood in the field of duel monsters in the future. After consultation, it was decided that Kaiba Entertainment
The group and International Illusion Society will obtain permission from the Tongshiye City Government and will make registration preparations for each contestant after registration."
"However, after the deck is bound to the contestant, it does not mean that the contestant can only use the cards in the deck to duel or exchange cards with others in the gene competition. This measure is only to prevent any illegal activities.
Elements sneaked into Tongshiye City to carry out sabotage activities to prevent card hunters like the former international criminal organization Gurus from hunting rare cards from happening again."
"After all, the leader of the international criminal organization Gurus - a vicious criminal named 'Malik' has still not been caught to this day."
"Ah sneeze!" Behind the castle, someone suddenly sneezed.
"Ah, thank you for your explanation, uh, Mr. Aoki." Jonouchi glanced at the office worker in front of him with a slightly higher hairline and black hair with a few strands of white hair that seemed to have appeared early due to overwork. On his chest
On the nameplate of the office, the word "Aoki" is written next to the lg of International Illusion Society, which is probably the other party's name.
After putting the card group into the slot, it seemed that the device used for registration closed automatically, and the countdown and red light lit up like a rice cooker. However, in just a few seconds, the countdown returned to zero and the red light also changed to
With the green light, the device was turned on again, allowing Jonouchi to retrieve the deck.
Aoki, an ordinary office worker, also pulled out a magnetic card from the other end of the device, put away the registration form, handed the magnetic card to Jonouchi and said: "The registration for the gene competition has been completed, please keep your magnetic card.
It is an important item used to prove your identity and qualifications after the competition starts. The gene competition will officially start in Tongshino City one month later on February 10th. Please participate on time. I wish you can achieve excellent results in the competition.
Results."
Although the words were quite thoughtful, Jonouchi could tell that it seemed to be a fixed set of words, but he still thanked Aoki, took the magnetic card and moved away, while the person behind him rubbed it
Rub your nose and take a step forward.
"Hello, your name."
"Malik Yinshudar is my uncle!"
"Well, then the date of birth." Even after hearing the name "Malik", the leader of the criminal organization Gurus just mentioned, Aoki still filled in calmly with a calm expression that had nothing to do with him.
Looking at the form, I don’t know whether he is facially paralyzed or because the complicated and boring work has left him with no extra energy to care about other things.
"My registration has been successful!" Jounouchi happily came to his friends who were waiting for him in the registration line. Jonouchi showed the magnetic card in his hand to Honda and the others, "Hahaha, my registration is successful.
, doesn’t it basically mean that the candidate for the championship has been decided!”
"You are really confident. Aren't you worried that you will encounter some difficult guy?" Honda pointed at the front of the registration team not far away, who was still going through the formalities in front of the office worker named Aoki.
Li Ke, "Not to mention anything else, that guy Malik also plans to sign up for the competition."
"Huh? It's just Malik, nothing to worry about." Jonouchi said arrogantly, "When we competed in the city, he was only among the top eight, but I am the top four. The advantage is mine."
"That's because your opponents are completely different in strength. We can clearly see how strong the relationship is between you and Miss Mai, and Malik's opponent at that time was just playing a game." Kyoko said mercilessly.
The truth came out, but Jonouchi didn't care too much, he still looked confident.
Putting the magnetic card away, Jonouchi looked around Honda and Kyoko again, but saw no one else: "Speaking of which, why are you two the only ones left here? Where did Yugi, Hayato, and Tairio go?
Why didn’t I see them? Weren’t they all there when they came?”
"When you were queuing up to sign up, Keihei came over after knowing we were here. He seemed to have something to do to find a game. He also called Tapiliang over. I don't know what he wanted to do." Honda spread his hands.
, "Hayato said that he seemed to have seen someone just now and suddenly left."
"Before he left, he seemed to have said, 'I'm sorry, everyone, please go back first. I will catch up with you soon, so I'll leave first' or something like that."
"It sounds like he is going to track down some black organization, and then he is drugged and becomes smaller." Malik, who had completed the registration, came closer and heard Honda's words. He also complained and shook the magnetic card in his hand.
, "The ambitions of the Haima Group are really obvious."
"Ambition? What do you mean?" Jonouchi looked at the gene contest participant qualification card in Malik's hand in confusion, "Isn't this just an ordinary magnetic card?"
"You're not good at discerning, Jonouchi, is this the level of the top four in Duel City?" It could be heard that Malik heard clearly that the conversation between Honda and Jonouchi was longer than expected, "You can't just look at something at its surface.
Think carefully about the meaning behind what this card represents."
"If you are just to qualify for the competition, there is no need to use magnetic cards that can be used multiple times, right? Where do you usually see magnetic cards? And the so-called reason to prevent rare card hunters is simply ridiculous.
Seto Kaiba obviously knows that I am in Doshino City, and he is simply using the Gurus that once existed but has been disbanded long ago as an excuse."
After hearing Malik's words, Honda also followed his train of thought and murmured: "The place where you see more magnetic cards is probably in the factory. Workers need to punch in every day when they go to work. Every magnetic card
All correspond to the identity of each worker."
"Wait a minute, I remember-" As if thinking of something, Honda turned on his mobile phone and looked up information on the Internet.
It has to be said that with the existence of search engines, the difficulty for humans to obtain knowledge and intelligence was greatly reduced in that moment. In just a few moments, Honda relied on several key factors such as "Doshinoichi", "Haima Group" and "Government Cooperation"
Ci found a piece of news that he had seen a few days ago.
Looking at the photos posted in the news, Honda also came to the same guess as Malik, and raised his eyebrows: "It's really what you thought Malik, Seto Kaiba's ambition is really not small.
Ah. Is this already a conspiracy?"
Jonouchi moved closer to Honda and saw that the news he was actually scrolling through on his phone was from last week. The time was probably when they were still in Egypt and Kaiba had returned to Doshino City with Keppei. The title of this news is "Tongshiye City Government and Haima Entertainment Group have reached a cooperation to vigorously develop people's livelihood. The content is probably that Haima Group will undertake a large number of infrastructure projects in Tongshiye City and carry out a large-scale and huge development of Tongshiye City."
There has been extensive renovation and construction, and the photo posted as an example shows a gate-like device on a tram stop.
"Although it has not been announced yet, it is easy to come up with an answer by combining the magnetic card issued by the gene competition with the gate with the card swiping device that appeared in the news." Malik played with the card in his hand.
Magnetic card track,
"Once the construction of the gates built at the main entrance of Doshino City is completed, it is likely that entrants will begin to be screened. Those who are not qualified as duelists will most likely be expelled directly from the city.
Get out?"
"With Seto Kaiba's character, it would not be an exaggeration to install surveillance equipment in every corner of this city. As a large amount of infrastructure is gradually completed, this city will change little by little.
It will become a city that belongs to the duelists and the Kaiba Group. And Seto Kaiba, who is in charge of the Kaiba Group, will also become the ruler of this city."
When Kyoko heard Malik's words, she was a little surprised and said: "Is it that exaggerated? Seto Kaiba wants to rule Doshino City?"
"Actually, I have tried to keep it as small as possible. Although Seto Kaiba may not have the idea of becoming a ruler, his actions have brought the city under his control little by little." Malik said
Spreading his hands, "Just like the current gene competition, duelists from all over the world who want to become members of dueling academies will probably gather in this city."
"Under the guidance of the Kaiba Group, those troublesome visa issues were easily solved with a card issued by the Kaiba Group. Doshino City was completely controlled by the Kaiba Group as if it was independent from Japan. Even because of the previous duel
Due to the influence of the city, the citizens of Tongshino City who have experienced the benefits of the arrival of a large number of outsiders will not have any resistance to this gene competition."
Jonouchi wanted to say no, but even after thinking about it for a while, he actually came to the same answer as Honda and Malik. Kaiba seemed to really want to bring Doshinoichi under his rule, and the starting point was the current situation.
This gene competition.
"Speaking of Duel Cities, I remember we met that guy named Gosaburo Kaiba before. He said that Kaiba had the ability to rule the world. I thought he was trying to deceive people. But now it seems that Kaiba is
Haven’t we already taken the first step towards world domination?”
Honda said, looking at the airships floating in the sky in Tongshino City in the distance. The advertisement for the gene competition has been hanging below the airship to attract people's attention. The huge poster of Shanghai Horse Group's "kc" LG
It seems that it is patrolling its territory on behalf of the king Kaiba.
So, what is "King" Seto Kaiba doing now?
"Huh? I'm going to be the publicity ambassador for the gene competition?" Looking at Kaiba sitting in front of him, Tairiang looked as if he had just heard a hallucination, a little unbelievable, "But my game of Duel Monsters is basically
Don’t you know anything?”
"It doesn't matter. You don't need to fight in the duel anyway. You just need to sit on the stage and watch the battle with the commentator. It's a simple job, right?" Keppei, wearing a suit, persuaded Tapirang, but paused mid-sentence.
After a while, he sighed again, "You are much better than me. Brother, he came up with such a game in a flash. There is so much preparation work that I have to handle it all."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"You also told me that it was Hayato-nii who proposed this competition? Who would believe it?"
"Well, if there is no need for a duel, I think it's okay." Tapirang thought for a while, then looked at Yugi who was acting as his "agent" next to him and said, "What do you think, Yugi-kun?"
Yugi did not answer Tapirang immediately, but looked at the silent Kaiba and said, "Can you tell me why you thought of asking Tapirang to become the publicity ambassador of the gene competition, Kaiba-kun?"
"Hmph, are you questioning me, Yugi? Do you think your performance in that duel was enough for me to take a high look at you?"
'Although it seems to be true, I do admit that this guy is an excellent duelist', I thought to myself, but Kaiba still did a good job on the surface, folded his arms in front of his chest, and said coldly, "
The reason why I chose this guy to be my publicity ambassador is very simple, and you should know it."
Hearing Kaiba's words, Yugi suddenly remembered that Hayato had told him that the fish they wanted to "catch" had a lot to do with Zuo Ke Nerofa, also known as "Dark Tapiryo", who once lived in Tapiryo.
It's a holiday, and now that "Dark Tapirung" has died, the other party is likely to hate the house and find trouble with Tapirung who has nothing to do with it.
"Are you going to use him as bait, Kaiba? Such behavior is too bad. If that's the case, I won't let him be used by you——"
"Hmph, in your imagination, am I the kind of scum that does everything possible?" Kaiba snorted coldly, and said with some displeasure, "I'm talking about the ranking list in Tongshiye High School!"<
/p>
"Uh, what's the ranking list of 'most want to fall in love with him'?"
"Although this guy is ranked one place behind Hayato Kobayashi, in addition to that list, his name is also on the list of 'Most Want to Fall in Love with Her'. He is also ranked second, only in the list of Nosaka Miho.
After the woman, so letting him be the publicity ambassador is the most cost-effective”
Kaiba stopped mid-sentence, and his eyes met the strange looks Keihei, Tapira, and Yugi gave him, "What are those looks of yours?"
"No, I just didn't expect Kaiba-kun to care about the school's ranking list. I thought only Jonouchi and the others would pay attention."
"Oh my god, am I actually ranked on the girls' list? It's really embarrassing."
"Brother, you have finally grown up, which really makes me happy."
"Humph, it's boring, you guys take it for granted!" Hearing the ridicule from several people, Kaiba leaned his back in dissatisfaction.
