[5000-word chapter] Chapter 131 Where are the crows and find Dongluo
"I object!"
The person who objected was Takeji Nishiyama, the head of the Hokkai Police Headquarters.
Nishiyama Takeji thought it was ridiculous. When the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department requested the support of special investigation divisions from various places, it never thought of having territorial responsibility.
Of course, it's hard to say this openly. Although we are all local police agencies, the Dongdu Metropolitan Police Department is one level higher than the Beihai Police Headquarters after all... Moreover, the Nishiyama Wusi is not so small.
Therefore, the reason for Nishiyama Takeshi’s objection is:
"Everyone, we should start from the overall situation. Contact and cooperation with [alien] are by no means a matter of one city or one place, or even one country. It is related to the future and destiny of all mankind. It is better to be coordinated and directed by the National Police Agency.
…”
Entering the game stage, Yeying wisely exited the conference room.
After leaving the door, I walked straight to the elevator, and saw my immediate boss, Fukaya, the head of the Special Investigation Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, in the walking corridor next to the elevator. He was said to have gone to the bathroom.
At this moment, Shen Gu was leaning on the railing of the stairs, holding a half-burned cigarette in his hand, not smoking, looking at the gap between the upper and lower stairs, wondering what he was thinking.
Ye Ying can understand the pain of Shengu being flanked by superior supervisory agencies and the direct leaders of this department. However, his biggest worry now should be that the duck that reached his mouth flew away... By the way, this kind of duck is not just a weird duck in the east.
The Investigation Department can eat it.
"Shh-"
Shen Gu raised his head and saw Ye Ying passing by. He quickly put his fingers between his lips and hissed at her.
Yeying made an OK gesture and entered the elevator as if he said I understand you.
As a weird investigator who relies on his own skills, Ye Ying is not interested at all in the games played by high-level police officers, but he knows a little bit about the inner workings - between the Dongdu Metropolitan Police Department and the National Police Agency, as well as other police headquarters in various places.
The conflict between them has been around for a long time.
It is said that the National Police Agency is the central administrative agency and hub of the country's police system. It is in charge of the country's overall police administrative affairs and has supervisory responsibilities for local police agencies.
However, this kind of supervisory responsibility is the least effective in Toto City, where the administrative building is located... The director of the Toto Metropolitan Police Department next door, Police Chief Kimiyama Hirai, is the highest-ranking official in the country's police circles, and the Chief of the Police Department, Masaki Yagi, does not even have a police rank...
...No wonder the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department always wants to highlight its independence.
As for the other police headquarters in various places, the Dongdu Metropolitan Police Department has never taken it seriously. They always rely on their higher rank and often go directly to the other party's jurisdiction to handle cases and arrest people for some cross-border cases without even saying hello.
…
When encountering bizarre incidents that occur locally and involve other areas, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department will even directly request the investigators from the local headquarters to go to Dongdu to cooperate with the investigation...
Previously, [Lidu Giant Finger] appeared in Lidu City. The Dongdu Police Department directly arranged for an investigator named Leng He to lead a group of staff to build a temporary building in the core area of Lidu Central Park.
The laboratory conducts research.
During this period, I just said hello to the Lidu Police Headquarters, and there was no intention to discuss it at all. You know, when the National Police Agency sent people to Lidu to investigate [Lidu Giant Finger], they also first arranged for special personnel to go to Lidu Police.
The headquarters made contact and then went to the scene.
Yeying is not optimistic that the Dongdu Metropolitan Police Department can take responsibility for the [Friends of Humanity] operation. After all, it is a game with higher authorities, and it is a major event involving the whole country, and even all mankind. The Dongdu Metropolitan Police Department will not
Being strong only means that he is very authoritative within the scope of Dongdu. Outside Dongdu, there are not many people who want to confront the Dongdu Police.
In any case, if that [Alien] can really give humans the ability to tolerate weirdness as Obayashi Hitoko said, then maybe the hopeless situation of investigators like them who have been unable to cope with weirdness can really be improved.
…
As for the price of the transaction... Compared to the disappointment and despair again and again, and compared to the lives lost due to weirdness, eternal loss of happiness is really nothing.
After walking out of the police station building, Yeying got into a black car, with Answer sitting in the driver's seat.
"Why did you come out early?"
The answer is holding a notebook in his hand and writing something quickly with a pen, "This meeting should be held until at least tomorrow morning, right?"
"What do you think..."
Yeying leaned over and looked at the contents of the notebook. In addition to the gray eye, he also drew various monsters described by Dalin Tongzi, as well as very detailed meeting minutes...
"You really eavesdropped..."
"Do they always argue like this?"
There was a rare hint of speechlessness in the answer's voice, "It's better to let Tongzi Dalin tell her own experience seriously."
"Didn't I already tell you?"
"It's far from enough. There are still many details missing."
"for example?"
"What does [Alien] sound like? What is its tone? Its image is an eye in a circle, right? It has a bit of pity in its eyes. Can you draw it? Does he have any mantra? What are the signs before he appears...
In addition, I have been thinking about a question -
Why, [heterogeneous] can’t be a human being?”
"You are really a weird question...why is the nickname the answer..."
Ye Ying said, half-buttoned the sun hat on his face, closed his eyes and rested.
The meeting at the National Police Agency lasted until ten o'clock the next morning...
The fierce quarrel never stopped until——
"Alien!"
Dalin Tongzi, who was lying on the table to catch up on his sleep, suddenly woke up, "There is news from the alien..."
The venue immediately fell silent, and everyone stared at Dalin Tongzi.
However, Dalin Tongzi seemed to be empty where he was.
After a long time, her expression returned to clarity.
"What did he say?"
The person who asked the question on behalf of the police bigwigs whose curiosity was at its peak was Hitomi Obayashi's direct supervisor, Kurokawa, the head of the Bizarre Investigation Section of the Hokkai Headquarters.
"Dongluo..."
Dalin Tongzi said: "He asked me to find Dongluo."
"Dongluo?"
"Who is Dongluo?"
[Do you really want Dalin Tongzi to take in that sex-changing weirdo? 】
"kindness."
Shibuya apartment, Gu Xing's new home.
On the sofa in the living room, Zaoe sat aside, looking at her with love in her eyes.
Gu Xing opened the "Pawn Shop No. 8" in his hand to the second volume. The volume is called Pupils and Gray Eyes.
"I said that I would turn Saburo Uragawa into a woman and send him to hell, right? Since I said it, I must do it. And his accomplice named Kubo Shoichi must not be let go. All of them must be done.
To become a woman.”
[Don’t forget, there are also parents who covered up the truth and destroyed the evidence for Saburo Uragashi’s murder]
[His parents must be running around and jumping up and down to rescue Uragisaburo right now, right?]
[When the time comes, the knife must be more severe]
"Yes, I will."
If Gu Xing wanted to deal with Uragusaburo's parents now, there wouldn't be too many ways. The Dark Crow could directly take away the souls of the two people.
Fujino can come to collect debts.
Nobuhiko Kumada can just go up and swallow his head.
In addition to the passively triggered killing rules, Zaohui also has a proactive rule, which Gu Xing can also borrow.
The [Gray Eye] that Dalin Tongzi just took in can also be borrowed.
Even Kita Eijiro can take action——
Because the scope of ingratitude in the concept of Kita Eijiro's rules is too broad, a little favor is considered a favor, and a benefactor who has a little resentment towards the benefactor is considered a candidate for triggering Eijiro's rule of taking away.
And Gu Xing can advance the order of taking away any of the candidates... According to this logic, probably all human beings are within the rules of Kita Eijiro's taking away, but the order of taking away depends on the degree of resentment of the benefactor.
It’s just different every time.
But Gu Xing always felt unwilling to simply take away these sinful guys.
"Don't worry...we'll take care of it together when the time comes."
Gu Xing then lowered his head to read the book. The preface of the second volume was: Gray eyes are the devil that sucks the lover dry.
The main part of this volume records the past stories of Hitomi, Hanaoka Yuki and Kumada Nobuhiko.
Gu Xing had read this story in Kumada Nobuhiko's book, but it was recorded from Kumada Nobuhiko's perspective. The same story, described from Obayashi Hitomi's perspective, gave a different feeling.
Probably, Kumada Nobuhiko will never know that Hitoko Obayashi has a completely pure friendship with him. Like Yuki, he has never had any thoughts about the relationship between men and women. This is an even sadder story.
Nobuhiko Kumada, who was staring blankly at the moon outside the window on the balcony of the apartment, seemed to have noticed something and appeared behind Gu Xing in an instant.
Gu Xing immediately closed the book.
Kumada Nobuhiko bared his teeth at Gu Xing and bit down on Gu Xing's head...
After Nobuhiko Kumada returned to the balcony and continued to be in a daze, Gu Xing opened "Pawn Shop No. 8" again and checked the information about [Grey Eyes].
【Grey Eyes】
E-class swallowing species, a grotesque host species, the rules can be supplemented and improved. It hides in the multi-eyed fog of the Absurd Swamp, and is inconspicuous among the mysterious eyes. It is now taken into custody by Obayashi Hitoko, a grotesque investigator from the BH City Police Headquarters.
[Rule 1]: The gray eye will parasitize the human being who sees it, and greatly increase the host's charm value, making other people who see the host have a favorable impression of the host (E).
[Rule 2]: If someone develops a liking for Gray Eyes' host, he will become Gray Eyes' new host.
The gray eyes will take up residence in the new host after devouring the flesh under the skin of the original host.
The new host will obtain all the memories of the original host and use the physical energy of the original host to enhance its own strength and speed. The improvement effects can be continuously stacked (E+).
[Rule 3]: The gray eye can actively devour everyone who sees it, leaving only an empty skin in the end (E-)
[Rule 4]: Gray eyes can open space tunnels and achieve long-distance transmission around the world (E-)
Gu Xing studied Rule 2 carefully and found a problem——
The ultimate beneficiary of this rule is Gray Eyes.
Because the original host will be devoured, the new host will also be devoured soon. In the end, only Gray Eyes completes the rules in the process of killing people.
Even Obayashi Tongzi, as the container rather than the host, cannot improve his strength and speed through this rule.
This set of rules may seem a bit complicated, but taking the death row inmate who was killed by Hitomi Obayashi using the rules at that meeting as an example, it becomes very clear——
When Hitoko Obayashi uses the third rule on a death row prisoner, the death row prisoner will directly turn into a ball of skin with his flesh sucked dry.
When Rule 1 and Rule 2 are used, the death row prisoner will become the host of Gray Eyes.
Next, Gray Eyes will start the same death cycle as at Nakano Station and become the biggest beneficiary.
Of course, as the holder of gray eyes, the rules of gray eyes have been completed or improved, and Dalin Tongzi can also be regarded as a beneficiary. In addition, Gu Xing, who can borrow gray eyes at any time... naturally also benefits.
For Gu Xing, the fourth rule is particularly useful.
This also means that from now on, as long as there are no rules above E-, Gu Xing can achieve instant teleportation at any time, which is simply awesome.
In fact, with the fourth rule in place, Gu Xing seemed to be able to find out Dong Luo's location by himself, teleport there instantly, and then find a way to subdue the weirdo. But Gu Xing took action himself, and the possibility of exposure was greatly increased.
.
According to Hu Xing's future plans, if he wants more eccentric investigators to trigger the eccentric traders' rules, he must contact as many eccentric investigators as possible.
It would be too obvious for him to come into contact with those weird investigators personally.
The best way is to rely on others and use the eyes of Dalin Tongzi, Crow, these investigators who have triggered the weird trader rules, to learn more about the investigators——
According to Xiaodong's explanation, Gu Xing can switch to the perspective of the triggerer at any time unless there are special circumstances. This is also the price difference that the weird trader gives to the middleman.
[What do you think about the National Police Agency’s “Friends of Humanity” action plan?]
"very good,"
Gu Xing said: "So far, it's very good.
As long as they are willing to cooperate, of course I am willing to let more investigators, like Crow and Tongzi Dalin, master the power of weird rules - this is a win-win situation. As for what the future will bring, just take it one step at a time."
Anyway, Gu Xing has great power to deal with every trigger, and can even make the trigger's weird rules disappear for a long time.
If an evil presence appears among the trigger persons, it will be easy for Gu Xing to deal with him.
[A win-win situation is okay...]
"Speaking of which...where's the crow? No news for a long time. Why can't I switch to her perspective?"
Gu Xing turned the book to the volume "The Crow and the Dusky Crow". After accommodating the Dusk Crow, the crow returned to Lidu City and soon disappeared without a trace, and the content in the book became blank.
"Also, didn't you say that all the stories that happened to trigger persons will be described in this book? Why is there not even a word in Crow's subsequent story books?"
[Hmm... I thought about it, and there is only one reason for this situation - the crow's situation is isolated by a weird rule of the same level as the weird trader, or a higher level]
"..."
Gu Xing was speechless, "Is there anything more terrifying than the weird traders in this world?"
【certainly】
[It’s just that this world is too comfortable, and “they” have fallen into a deep sleep]
Comfortable... comfortable?
[In addition, there are those high-level weirdos who like to travel in various time and space, various worlds, and various dimensions. You can't imagine how terrifying their rules are. If some weirdos blink, half of the people in this universe will be missing...
…The other half will all go crazy]
Isn't the current situation of the crow very bad...
[This is not something you can interfere with]
[By the way, does Gu Xingjun miss Sister Crow a little bit?]
【Why do you keep asking about her lately?】
"Oh, every time I watch Tongzi's live broadcast, I get curious why I can't watch Crow's live broadcast."
【Really don't miss her?】
"No."
[Humph, it’s better not to have one]
Gu Xing continued to turn back and read the book seriously——
[Getting on the special bus to Caoshan Hot Spring on the outskirts of Dongdu City, Hitomi Obayashi, who had not had a good rest for a long time, felt tired]
[After taking in "Grey Eyes", Dalin Tongzi could have teleported to Caoshan Hot Spring where Dongluo was investigating the case. But she planned to take a good rest during the car ride]
[In addition, although currently, there is no need to pay any price for using weird rules. But Hitomi Obayashi always feels that it is better not to use them too frequently. No one knows what will happen in the future]
[She looked at the rearview mirror on the passenger side, and a rather familiar black car followed her from a distance]
"Didn't you say that before?"
The person in charge of driving is Ye Ying. She tries to control the distance between the car, not too close and not too far. It is already very close to Caoshan Hot Spring, and Ye Ying does not want to expose herself at this time.
"After the weird incident at Nakano Station is over, do you plan to go to Lito City to check on the guy who pretended to be you?"
"Obviously,"
The answer is sitting in the co-pilot, reading a white paper. The book is full of cold jokes. "[Aliens] have a higher priority. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... I will go to Lidu. But first, I have to
Find the answer with [Alien] and Dalin Tongzi."
"No need to explain," Ye Ying's lips curled up, "Men are always erratic."
"You asked first."
"[Alien] has said that only Dalin Tongzi is allowed to go to Dongluo alone,"
Ye Ying looked at Hitomi Obayashi's special car in front of her. Further ahead, she could already see the distant shadow of Caoshan Hot Spring. She cleared her throat and said, "Well, the National Police Agency didn't even send anyone, so you can't restrain your curiosity.
Well."
"No one was sent... This joke is really cold,"
I turned a page of the book and continued to read the answer, "Monitors, real-time monitoring, nothing missing."
"Cough, cough..."
etc……
"Your voice,"
The answer suddenly put down the joke book and looked at Ye Ying, "Why did it become thicker?"
Ye Ying also looked at the answer, and "his" face was full of surprise...
