[DN Doujin] Professional Reaper

—Human World·Japan—

"Du, what kind of existence do you think this so-called KILLER is?" L asked while staring at the various materials scrolling on the computer.

"If I could know, maybe the police around the world wouldn't be so distressed." The negotiator dressed as a butler put the milk coffee with enough sugar in L's hand, and then replied calmly.

"I just want some more guesswork, which will make my brain cells more active." L glanced at the coffee that had been filled, and then took some sugar cubes from the sugar bowl on the other side , continue to throw it in.

"In this case..." Du thought for a while, and then said, "I think it should be a very large secret organization that can commit crimes in various parts of the world at the same time."

"Is it a huge organization?" After adding several pieces of candy, L took a sip in satisfaction, and then replied, "This is the only answer that most people can think of! But I always feel that things are not that simple , Judging from the data of these cases, I have to say that even with my IQ, it is impossible to complete such a perfect murder technique. There are no witnesses, no traces, everything is silent..."

"In this case, I recall a popular saying on the Internet." Du went on to say, "There are some fanatics who seem to call KILLER the god of the new world. Of course, the more common saying is that KILLER has Human beings with powerful superpowers can control the life and death of human beings at will."

"The one who can control the life and death of human beings at will should not be human beings, but more like a god of death!" L said with raised eyebrows.

"L, I remember that you never believed in the god of death before. But since the last family murder case was solved, you seem to be particularly keen on finding all kinds of information about the god of death." Regarding the abnormal situation of your partner , Du was obviously a little worried.

"That's because the god of death may really exist." L said seriously, "maybe standing behind you right now!"

"Is this a new joke?" As an ordinary human being keen on scientific research and invention, Du obviously did not believe in the existence of the so-called god of death.

"Yeah, it's just an ordinary joke." L smiled, then turned off the computer, and stood up from the chair, as if to indicate that the working hours ended early, "Du, can you prepare some supper for me?"

"Of course. Do you still want enough desserts?" As a negotiator, housekeeper, guardian and partner, Mr. Du, even though he is busy with several jobs, still indulges L's sweet tooth.

"Thank you!" L thanked, and then watched his partner turn and leave the room.

"I don't seem to have introduced myself before, why do you know that I am Death?" After the door was closed again, another male voice suddenly came from the empty room.Although the deep magnetic voice makes people think that the other party is very reliable, but L has already deeply realized that the other party is not so reliable, especially for the fact that he just wants to resurrect others casually.

"Well... I'm a famous detective, aren't I?" L, who was purely speculating about everything, had a serious face, and successfully fooled Guy, who was not deeply involved in the world.

"Detective is really a powerful profession. Could it be that everything in the world can't be hidden from your eyes?" Guy asked curiously.

"Maybe..." L's answer was ambiguous, and then he began to look at Guy with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to say something.

"You seem to have something to ask me?" Perhaps because L's eyes were too intense, even Guy, who was a little dull, could sense the other party's thoughts.

"Maybe..." L didn't know when he could only say these three words, "But I feel a little confused now, and I don't know how to express it."

"Coincidentally, I just happened to pass by, and I don't know what happened here." Guy found a soft sofa that looked particularly comfortable, and then sat down. "My intuition tells me that I can listen to stories here!" When he was in Soul Continent, Guy liked to watch the aborigines (NPCs) tell stories to adventurers over and over again.

"Maybe I should know your name first." L shrugged and said, "I don't like to tell a story to a strange... person... who doesn't know the name. And I seem to have told you my name, right?"

"My name?" Guy pointed at himself suspiciously, "Didn't I mention it? My name is Guy, and my profession is Death."

"..."

"Didn't you already know? Why do you still look so surprised?" Guy looked at L, who was silent but stunned, and asked suspiciously.

"Yeah...the god of death... actually exists! As a human being, if you are not surprised, you would be very strange." L took a sip of coffee, and responded after gathering his composure.

"But in my opinion, it is already very strange to be able to see a living person who is dead."

"Forget it, let's get to the point right away." L touched his nose, then changed the subject and said, "I really want to know, is Death keen on killing criminals?"

"Criminals?" Guy tilted his head and thought for a while, then said with a look of sudden understanding, "You mean those guys with red names?"

"..." After hearing Guy's words, L was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Let me start from the beginning."

The frequent deaths of criminals, the same cause of death from heart paralysis, the death incidents all over the world, the rapid decline of crime rate... L told Guy the recent events in a serious tone.Although Du once came in to deliver supper and desserts during the period, he was accustomed to L's state of talking to himself. After all, in the process of L solving the case, it is normal for this weird genius to do any strange behavior, such as It is not unheard of to exaggerate dozens of times to myself...

While Guy was narrating the case while sorting out his thoughts, Guy unconsciously took the delicious dessert on the table for himself!Facts have proved that although NPCs have no sense of taste and do not need to eat, Guy's desire for food has apparently awakened himself unconsciously!

"Anyway, I will definitely find out the culprit in this incident!" L had just finished speaking when he saw Guy stuff the last piece of butter biscuit into his mouth.

"Why?" After quickly wiping the biscuits from his mouth, Guy asked while wiping the biscuit crumbs from the corner of his mouth, "According to what you just said, that murderer or murderous organization named KILLER successfully made that what The crime rate has decreased, hasn’t it? Didn’t you also say that many humans support that guy?”

"Whether it is an ordinary person or a criminal, life is life, and it is absolutely not allowed to trample on human life at will!" L said, looking at Guy again, "Especially since the last time I experienced death. , I discovered that life is really the most precious thing in this world!"

"Life?" Guy thought for a long time, but he still didn't know how valuable this thing that can be resurrected infinitely would be. "Ryuzaki, if I can help you in this case? Can you teach me how to deal with human beings in this world?" view of life?"

"Is this kind of thing really teachable?" L scratched his hair and said distressedly, "Even if you sort out the so-called theories, it's useless. Unless you have experienced it yourself, otherwise, even if it is Humans in this world can't really understand the horror of death!"

"By the way." After being silent for a while, L said again, "Guy, are we friends? Although we are of different races and I don't have much experience in making friends, we can indeed be called a strange combination of friends." Right? Humans and Shinigami or something..."

"In the words of an adventurer, you should be eligible to appear in my friend list." Guy considered the words for a while, trying to make L understand more clearly, but in the end he still couldn't get rid of the taste of the game.

"Ahh... that's really a good thing! If we had a deeper friendship..." L walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel and said while looking at the scenery outside the window, "When I was killed by KILLER , maybe you can understand something about death."

"Why did that guy kill you? Are you a criminal too?"

"No." L shook his head before explaining, "Tomorrow I want to conduct an experiment here, which is a detective's official challenge to KILLER."

Guy raised his head and looked at L's back, most of his face was exposed from the hood, he pursed his lips and said, "Although I don't know why, I think it's better for you to be alive, Ryuzaki. If you died so easily, wouldn't you be able to eat these delicious things? Besides, if you die, I will be unhappy, and then..."

"Then? Take revenge for me?" L said half-jokingly.

Compared with L's joking tone, Guy was more serious this time. He shook his head solemnly, and said, "Then I will bring you back to life."

"..." Recalling the "occupation" and special skills of his new friend, Ryuzaki was stunned, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth, "Dead and live, dead and alive, I seem to be very hard as the person involved Well... But, this is another good thing I heard today! What a happy day!"
