How many character cards do you have?

Nakahara also raised his head from the pile of documents and walked to Shi Chuanze: "Did you find it?"

Shi Chuanze moved the position to Zhongye.

Because these materials were fabricated by Tokikawasawa when he created the character card, and Mori Ogai found out them on purpose later, the clues are quite complete.

The point is, it's too complete.

The keyword that Mori Ogai searched for was the hands and feet that Kawasawa had touched on the character card before.

Intensive whistle, suddenly rolled up the storm, 'God' or 'Warcraft'.

The character card can't interfere too much with the history of this world for the time being, but he knows that the traces left by 'God' and 'Warcraft' are actually the singularity of supernatural powers, the storm is a natural disaster, and the whistle can be completely explained as the party's auditory hallucinations or the sound of the wind , but when these clues are combined, it becomes confusing.

Obviously, Mori Ogai didn't think it was a coincidence, so he compiled these clues into the confidential file, and Nakahara didn't think it was a coincidence either, and frowned.

"That monster... Flying Hydra was active near Yokohama a long time ago."

"It's possible, let's combine this series of clues to see the timeline."

Shi Chuanze's fingers almost turned into afterimages on the keyboard, and the originally complicated clues on the computer screen were recombined into vertical rows.

"First of all, the description of the monster that appeared first with the strange sound of the wind appeared in the local myths and legends of Aomori Prefecture. The local residents were unable to sail due to the storm. The men who went out would be swallowed by the storm on the sea until there was One day, a sharp spear fell from the sky to quell the storm and killed the evil monsters on the sea, so the people here enshrined it and called it Dou Jian Huang Ba Tu."

Shi Chuanze read the information on the screen, but did not notice the change in Nakahara Chuya's expression.

"Since then, there have been no rumors of any strong winds in the vicinity. Until the Edo period, there were three cases in the Meiji period, and two of them were reported in the local newspapers. Look."

Zhongyuan Zhong also frowned and took it to look at it. On the old black and white newspaper, there was a big headline written in black letters "Monsters Appeared in the Storm on the Bank of Yokohama"

In the black-and-white photo above, there is indeed a black dot in the middle of the tornado by the sea, and it is impossible to see what it is, but according to the reports inside, many locals claim to have heard strange movements before the storm swept through.

"The tornadoes of this year are really unreasonable. Let alone the years when there was no weather survey, the storms of this year obviously did not have any signs before, and the time of the tornadoes this year was January, which was not a high incidence of typhoons. season."

"Are you saying that the storm this year might have been caused by the flying polyps?"

"I'm just saying it's possible."

Shi Chuanze repeated, and continued: "This year, there were frequent storms. Some reporters interviewed local residents. Many said that they saw monsters, which once became a local legend... But since this year, Yokohama has never seen a monster again. A record for a tornado."

"At the same time, this year Yokohama began to build a military laboratory, which mainly studies..."

"Huangba vomits plans." Chuya Zhongya said hoarsely.

Shi Chuanze slowly turned his head to look at him, Nakahara Chuya was holding the document in his hand, which was given to him by Mori Ou after he became a cadre, including his identity and experimental plan.

"But Huang Ba spit is just a singularity of supernatural power... No, it doesn't even have to be 'Huang Ba spit'."

Yes, Huangbatu is not a god, at least in this world, all the ancient 'gods' or 'warcraft' events are actually caused by supernatural singularities. Ability, he exerted his ability on the same object, and the singularity was triggered because of the contradictions. The person with the ability was torn apart by this huge energy, leaving only the ability that lost the container and lost control in place. This phenomenon Worshiped as a god by the ignorant people at that time, this is the truth of the legend of the "god" in this world.

To put it simply, there are no gods in this world. The so-called gods are actually singularities of supernatural powers, and the so-called "Huangbatu" project was actually launched by the country to manipulate the huge energy of singularities of supernatural powers. They just Randomly chose a 'god' as the code name of the experiment.

It wasn't Huangbatu, it could also be Amaterasu, Yuedu, etc. In short, it had nothing to do with the true god in the mythology, it was just a name, symbolizing the code name of this experiment.

"So is there such a possibility?" Shi Chuanze guessed, "The place where the Flying Hydra inhabited was actually in Aomori Prefecture, but it was attacked by the people with supernatural abilities at that time, and the people with supernatural abilities used the power to break through the boundaries, which triggered a strange phenomenon. The power singularity, the flying hydra retreated, and moved from Aomori Prefecture to Yokohama, so there was a storm here. The reason why there were no tornadoes in the past few years was because the military base here conducted experiments on the power singularity, which led to energy leakage. , let them think that foreign enemies are coming, so they have been obediently staying underground and dare not come out."

"And the reason they're here now is because that power hasn't been there for a long time."

Zhong Yuanzhong also frowned and did not speak.

"Hey, something's wrong. The Huangba vomiting experiment should have been terminated more than 20 years ago, but why did they just pop up recently..."

No, the time is right.

Zhong Yuanzhong also thought in a complicated mood, because that bastard defected from Hong Kong gangsters, and the filthy form has not appeared for a long time.

The investigation went very smoothly, thanks to this, Zhong also knew what to do, but it was too smooth, as if the materials were prepared here from the beginning, waiting for them to come and get them, and Zhong Ye had the cadres in his hand Permissions are like a big hand controlling everything invisible, which makes people feel calculated.

Zhong Yuan also fell into silence, Shi Chuanze pushed his glasses expressionlessly, glanced at the unattractive expression on his face, and understood that this was a hole dug for him by Mori Ogai on purpose.

Really, I don't want to suffer at all, Mr. Sen.

The perspective changes to the outside of the Ganghei Building, on the edge of a certain river.

"Yeah, Dazai-kun."

Dazai was enjoying this moment of entering the water tonight, but was suddenly interrupted, looked up, and a face that often appeared in nightmares was greeting him with a smile.

"Mr. Mori." Dazai's face pulled his hips.

"Come up and talk first, the water is very cold." Mori Ogai stretched out his hand towards Dazai.

"Ah, I suddenly remembered that I still have an agreement with Miss Mermaid at the bottom of Yokohama tonight, so I'm leaving first..." Before Dazai finished speaking, he saw a group of men in black holding fishing nets ready to move.

Dazai: ...

In the end, he was fished up, and at night in Yokohama, facing the cold wind by the sea, he sat shivering on the chair handed over by others.

Mori Ogai sat opposite him, a glass table was placed between the two, and someone next to him promptly brought a bowl of ginger tea.

"Huh~ why don't we go to the store?" Dazai complained while drinking ginger tea.

"Seeing so many of us, the store owner will be scared."

"Then the two of us."

"You'll run away."

"I won't."

Mori Ogai just smiled, apparently not believing it.

Dazai shrugged, stared at Mori Ogai for a while, and sneered: "What dangerous thing has been released and needs my help, Chuya, or Q?"

"Dazai-kun is still as sharp as ever."

"Okay, I don't have to go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, let alone you come in person." Dazai narrowed his eyes and quickly analyzed something.

"It's not Q. Q has gradually been able to control his own abilities recently, and maybe it won't be too long before it will become a brand new power in my hands."

"Oh, that's really congratulations." Dazai's voice was calm, and his brain was analyzing quickly.

Not Q, then Zhongye?What situation would make him take the risk of driving dirty?No, before that, it was strange that Mr. Mori would appear here.

Dazai looked at what Mori Ogai was wearing. It wasn't the white coat that he usually wore when he went out, but the leader's outfit in a black suit and red scarf. Then he looked at the Hong Kong Hei Building, where the brightly lit buildings in the past were all blacked out.

Dazai was thoughtful, since it wasn't Q, then it was probably Chuya, otherwise Mori Ogai would not have come to him in person.

Enemies that need to be dealt with by killing filth...

Dazai looked at Mori Ogai's clothes again, and saw that his clothes were neat, without obvious wrinkles and dust, and his attitude was calm, which meant that the situation was not in a hurry, or that things hadn't happened/would not necessarily happen.

Even so, I still came to find him in advance. There must be a danger that Mr. Mori would not be able to understand.

"That's how it is." Dazai leaned back slightly in the chair, and drank a cup of ginger tea leisurely.

The calm smile on Mori Ogai's face was almost unstoppable. He knew his disciple well, and knowing this expression meant that Dazai had already guessed all about it.

That's the trouble with dealing with smart people.

What's more troublesome is that due to the uniqueness of the disqualification in the world, he has no way to find a replacement.

Back in time, before the reincarnation began, Mori Ogai took the initiative to approach Shi Chuanzawa, and the superficial reason in person was still that the boss was considerate of his subordinates and invited him to drink tea.

He actually prepared afternoon tea. The long table was filled with various pastries. The sweet taste of the cakes mixed with the mellow aroma of black tea. On the long table were sitting opposite Mori Ogai and Tokikawa Ze, two or three meters apart. distance.

"Please take a seat, you're welcome."

Alice, who was wearing a red dress, had already picked up the cake and ate it unceremoniously. It seemed that she was here to enjoy afternoon tea.

Shi Chuanze's eyes lingered on Alice for a few minutes, until the little girl looked like she was about to explode before she looked away, picked up the teacup and took a shallow sip.

The mellow tea flavor spread from the tip of his tongue, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, Mori Ogai keenly caught his flashing look, and said with a smile: "Is there no such drink in the future?"

"This is, to inquire about information?"

"It doesn't count, after all, everyone is curious about the future," Mori Ogai elegantly cut a whole cake into small pieces that are easy to eat with a knife, and first put several pieces on Alice's plate , and then put the cake on a new plate and sent it to Tokikawa Ze, "Please."

Hearing this, Shi Chuanze poked the cake with a fork, as if he was somewhat interested in this kind of soft and sweet thing, he forked a piece and put it in his mouth: "Sweet."

"Of course the cake is sweet." Mori Ogai showed a gentle smile, "For us humans, sugar is the only energy source that the brain can ingest, and sweets can be ingested appropriately for people who use their brains."

"Inefficient energy utilization." Shi Chuanze said bluntly.

"Oh? It seems that there is no such saying in the future world?"

Shi Chuanze tilted his head and looked at Mori Ogai, as if he was amused by his oblique way of seeking information, and said generously: "No, we don't have this kind of food in the future world."

"Not even a cake, what a boring future." Alice curled her lips.

"Of course, there are no humans."

Mori Ogai: ...

Seeing Mori Ogai's expression getting serious, Tokikawasawa put down his teacup: "You are interested in this kind of information, right?"

"Let's announce it honestly, don't waste my time doing experiments," Shi Chuanze said, "What do you want, and what can you give?"

The leisurely afternoon tea suddenly turned into a negotiation venue.

Mori Ogai thought for a moment: "Remember what you said before, the magic contract?"

Surprise flashed in Shi Chuanze's eyes: "Do you want to sign?"

"If necessary..." Mori Ogai said lightly, but in fact, he was still hesitating in his heart.

Contact with unknown power, whether this decision is wise, whether the race in front of me can cooperate, all this is a mystery.

There is too little information, and it is impossible to analyze anything. At present, what Mori Ogai knows is revealed to him by the person in front of him. To put it bluntly, what Mori Ogai is worried about is the lack of information channels.

The monopoly of intelligence is a terrible thing, which means that the other party can throw out a misleading intelligence to deceive and maliciously guide them. When Ogai needs information, he always finds at least two or more intelligence houses, and then compares it with the information of his own intelligence department within Hong Kong and Black, and tries his best to confirm the authenticity of the information.

But regarding what happened in Yokohama these days, and the extremely secretive organization, Mori Ogai really had no way of doing it.

After that incident, he went to investigate the so-called Secret Keeper organization, but found nothing.

Let's say that all of this is fiction, but although he didn't find any secret keeper organization, the horrors about Shoggoth and various cults are all true, true and false, false and true, making it eerie Ougai has a very big head.

I also said before that if he can contact the keeper, he may be able to confirm the authenticity through their channels, but what he misses now is what he misses.

Acton's words before his death created an invisible crisis and pressure on Mori Ogai, and in order to maintain the peace and stability of the city he loves, he must know more information so as not to be in a big crisis. When it came, I was really at a loss.

The appearance of the Yisi people is a turning point.

At least for Mori Ogai, he is keenly aware of the opportunities hidden behind this crisis.

The question now is whether to take the risk for this opportunity.

Mori Ogai's expression caught Shi Chuanze's eyes, and his expression changed.

[Apply for Psychology. 】

Psychology: Ordinary Success

[You notice that the other party seems to be struggling with an important decision. 】

Ah.

Shi Chuanze rubbed his teacup, and said slowly: "I see, we can make a magic contract, and I will provide you with a certain amount of technological products. In exchange, I need you to provide confidential identities and corresponding activity funds. As I said before, if you don't worry, I can add conditions that won't affect your spirit."

"No, what I hope is not this kind of cooperation," Mori Ogai folded his hands and put his chin on the back of his hands. "What I hope to exchange is not technology, but intelligence."

"From, future intelligence."

How clever.

Shi Chuanze laughed in his heart, completely capturing what is the most valuable thing held by Yisi people.

Not technology, not knowledge, but... intelligence.

But it's a pity.

Shi Chuanze pushed the glasses: "You can't afford it, so let's change the condition."

"Don't be so anxious, let's take a look at the conditions given by us first." Mori Ogai pressed a button, and a minute later, someone knocked on the door of the office and handed over a bunch of documents.

Shi Chuanze took a look, and raised his eyebrows pretending to be surprised.

These are the few vague clues he wrote on the character card when he was preparing this module before, the legend about how Huangba spit out and defeated the monster in the storm, that is, when Kawasawa and Nakahara were also in the database later. found those.

Mori Ogai has found all of them, which is certainly not difficult for Hong Kong gangsters who have a well-developed intelligence network.

Before coming to negotiate with Tokikawa, Ogai Mori made a lot of preparations, including analyzing a series of activities that Tokikawa has carried out since he came to this era, trying to find out the logic behind it and his main purpose.

Although I don't know if the Yisi people can use human methods to analyze, but the experts he found really analyzed something.

After Tokikawasawa's "coming" to this era, there is only one thing that he does most often, and undisguisedly.

That is learning.

And according to the characteristics of the Yisi people he disclosed on his own initiative, it is obvious that he has a thirst for 'knowledge', but this kind of analysis, unfortunately, contradicts the 'purpose' of coming that Shi Chuanze said before.

He concealed his real purpose.

"What we can provide is the information Huangba spits out."

When Shi Chuanze was about to take the document, he paused and looked up at him deeply.

Mori Ogai smiled slyly: "Is this price enough?"

Bad-hearted human beings.

After negotiating with Mori Ogai, Shi Chuanze deeply thought so.

It was Karasawa Taki's choice to spit out Huangba, the purpose of the Yisians coming to this era.

As I said before, the debuff that comes with the Yisi card, they will not make special efforts to do anything, will not specially develop technology, or prepare weapons, unless it involves life and death.

But on the other hand, I also said before that their bodies are nothing more than their 'clothes', not to mention that according to the setting of Yisi's body in the future, everything that happens here is like a vr game to them, a fundamental threat Less than life.

In short, you can't cheer up a salty fish.

Unless it involves the third article, which is the 'purpose' of the Yithians, what they yearn for.

But obviously, Shi Chuanze didn't want Mori Ogai to succeed, so they didn't sign the contract right away, but first cooperated in the name of trying.

That is, the flying hydra subjugation battle.

This is the truth that the Hong Kong and Black Building emptied out everyone. Mori Ogai wanted to use this to see through what Shi Chuanze really needed, and to gain an advantage in the next second negotiation.

The information left by Mori Ogai "intimately" in the information database of the Hong Kong and Black Building is actually a kind of temptation.

Not only that, there are bugs and monitors left by him everywhere in the Hong Kong and Hei Building. Shi Chuanze knew this through the abnormal san value of his income, but he didn't have any intention to stop him, even in the middle of the war with Zhongyuan. He was also not stingy with information in getting along with each other, as if he didn't know that he was being watched, and exposed a lot of things.

Thanks to this, Mori Ogai has achieved the results he wanted.

The purpose of the Yisi people is indeed - to bully and spit.

……

"You're making a bad idea, Mr. Mori." Dazai hung up the phone, looked up at the smile on Mori Ogai's mouth and said.

"This is really wronging me, Dazai-kun," Mori Ogai shrugged, "I promise, this time is a good thing to benefit others and yourself."

"Why do I feel so uncomfortable when you say this from your mouth?" Dazai touched his chin, "Have you thought about it, Mr. Mori?"

"—The conditions to impress me."

Mori Ogai restrained his smile and looked at himself, the defected disciple.

If there is any unpredictable factor in Mori Ogai's entire plan, it is undoubtedly Dazai.

Now that it has been determined that Huang Ba's vomiting is the real "purpose" that Shi Chuanze concealed, then according to the current trend, there is no doubt that Zhongya Kai's dirty state is the key to solving this matter, but he can't really just sit back and watch Hong Kong. The black building is blown into the sky, and Chuya's filthy state will continue to run wild until the death of Nakahara Chuya as the container. If you don't want to lose this subordinate, only Dazai's human disqualification.

But relatively, Dazai's difficulty is also the most troublesome.

Mori Ogai looked at Osamu Dazai, who was drinking tea leisurely, and seemed not in a hurry at all, and felt even more headache in an instant.

Don't even think about it, if you want Dazai to make a move, it is impossible not to give him information.

After giving the information, what he will do is also unknown.

"Shi Chuanze."

Mori Ogai suddenly said a name that made Dazai feel unfamiliar: "The key to this incident is this person."

"Dazai, do you still remember the incident caused by Dan Acton last time? I suspect it will be similar this time." Mori Ogai simply told Dazai the news that Tokikawasawa was suspected to have changed, "They call themselves a great race , the technology is far more advanced than ours, and the purpose of possessing humans is to learn our culture, although it is unbelievable, but it is very likely to be true after testing it out."

Dazai immediately understood what Mori Ogai meant: "Do they have a tradition of collecting knowledge from other civilizations?"

Mori Ogai immediately showed an ambiguous smile: "You need to confirm this. Didn't you leave the contact information of Detective Meguro? If what this Tokikawa-kun said is true, they should have been contacted a long time ago. intersect with humans."

Dazai immediately understood Mori Ogai's intentions: "That Tokikawa-kun is now in Chuya, that is, the Hong Kong and Hei Building."

"Yes, and according to what they said, once possessed by a human being, the power they can use is about the same as that of a normal person."

In other words, if Chuya goes berserk, this guy might die there.

The influence brought by Acton before is still vivid in my mind. The coming of the evil god is not good at all. They still need more information and cannot blindly rely on that unknown secret keeper organization. Now a new information breakthrough has appeared, that is Shi Chuanze who was suspected of being possessed.

Dazai quickly analyzed the information revealed by Mori Ogai, and quickly understood the guy's purpose.

If the detective agency wants to obtain the source of information, it must save Shi Chuanze, that is to say, stop Chuya Chuya's runaway.

Dazai smiled lightly: "You're really cunning, Mr. Mori."

"This is my line, Dazai-kun."

If it was Dazai before, Mori Ogai could give the order as a matter of course, and if it was Dazai before he joined Gang Hei, he could use death as bait to push him.

But facing the current Dazai, even Mori Ogai would feel a headache.

This man buried everything in Gang Hei, his darkness, his past and all his weaknesses, good guys tend to have more weaknesses than bad guys, but Dazai's weaknesses are hard to pinpoint, because those people in the detective agency are also not to be underestimated If people with supernatural powers who are underestimated, if they are involved without authorization, the relationship of trust established between the two organizations will be buried in an instant.

So Mori Ogai had no choice but to present the subsequent results as a condition. He believed that the information Dazai found after the investigation would not be much more than what he found.

This is a reasonable exchange of interests.

"I refuse." Osamu Dazai smiled.
