me, the protagonist

Yamabuki Sakura doesn't know the inside story.

Yamabuki Sakura is working hard to distribute leaflets.

After a week of high-intensity street exposure, there will no longer be any fan congestion affecting road conditions.Except for some entertainment journalists and fans who waited all day long to take pictures in the distance, passers-by basically took the leaflets and thanked them politely and then left.

"Mr. Kunikida, let me come."

"That's troublesome." When changing shifts, Kunikida took off the doll's headgear, and when passing it over, he glanced at a hidden place at the intersection: "It's still there, thanks to them being able to persist."

"Yu Ji is like this," Masako, a clerk who followed him out of the field, handed him a bottle of water, and said in a low voice, "And recently, Sakura Sauce has attracted a lot of attention."

Kunikida was taken aback: "Because of street activities?"

"It's about the movie, the movie," Masako looked at him in surprise, "I heard that Teacher Yeliu personally invited Sakura-chan to play Lilith, but Sakura-chan rejected it."

Kunikida: "Wait, wait, what movie? Who is Lilith? Who is Noroku-sensei?"

"It's Teacher BEAST666 who wrote "Lilith of Despair," Masako explained, "This book is very popular now, and a manga adaptation is about to be made recently, and many people are competing for the leading role. Doesn't Mr. Kunikida know?"

Kunikida: "No, I'm more curious about how you know so clearly..."

"This is common sense among young women. It doesn't matter if you don't know it." Masako replied with a witty remark, and went to deliver water to others.

Writer BEAST666, author of two series of novels "Unfortunate Atali" and "Desperate Lilith", as well as several short stories.

His age, gender, and real name are not known, and the outside world calls him "Yelix Teacher".

Guess it was a fan of 19th century British occultist Aleister Crowley.

Whether it is "BEAST666", which is taken from Aleister's magical name, or using the name of Aleister's daughter Lilith as the title, it can well prove this point.

Even a popular idol who is developing rapidly will inevitably attract criticism after rejecting this tempting proposal.

Kunikida looked it up on the Internet, and it was probably the above content.

Because of this, he understood those paparazzi, and probably came here with the attitude of watching a joke.After rejecting such a good opportunity, where can there be better development?

Out of curiosity, Kunikida clicked on these two books on the Internet and looked at them, but unexpectedly plunged into them.

Although these two books are adventure light novels with girls as the main characters, they are wonderfully written and exciting.Not only is the literary talent excellent, but you can also feel the author's profound occult attainments.

The story is cruel with a touch of fragrance, which is very fascinating.It was not until the end of the event that the scene was about to be cleaned up that Kunikida ended the reading with unsatisfactory intentions.

But in addition to lamenting the exquisiteness of the story, he also felt weird.

The author seems to be...too clear about some things.

Do ordinary people know the direction of the ritual and the exact position of the caster to stand when pouring angelic power into the cross used for worship?

Moreover, those beautiful young protagonists whose lives have been ups and downs seem to give people a sense of déjà vu...

Who is BEAST666?What's the relationship with Yamabuki?Why would you go out of your way to invite a girl idol who has just become famous?

He subconsciously looked for Sakura Yamabuki—maybe there was no need to look for it deliberately, as long as she was present, no one could ignore her existence.

Yamabuki Sakura is helping the staff to roll up banners.She did it very carefully, carefully smoothing out the wrinkles and rolling them up carefully.Only those who have been paying attention to her will find that her eyes seem to drift to another place from time to time——

The young man with reddish-brown short hair put the remaining leaflets into a paper bag, and keenly noticed the hidden sight beside him, and his sharp eyes found the source in an instant.

"...?" It was the unexpected object of Oda Sakunosuke, and now he subconsciously looked down at himself, could it be that there is something wrong with his clothes?

The shirt was well buttoned and the blazer had no visible stains.So he took the initiative to ask Yamabuki Sakura: "Are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?"

The girl shook her head, she said something softly, and Oda Sakunosuke stopped and took the rolled banner in her hand.

At that moment, I don't know if it was a problem with the angle or the light, but the young man's outstretched hand turned transparent.Like nothing under the cuffs of a shirt, pierced by the dazzling orange afterglow of the setting sun.

Kunikida's eyes widened suddenly.

When he went to look again, Oda Sakunosuke had already taken the things smoothly, and walked towards him with Yamabuki Sakura.

"Is... an illusion?"

It is also possible to have hallucinations after being exposed to direct sunlight for too long, Kunikida comforted himself.

But this incident still left a thorn in his heart, and when he went to work for a few days, he couldn't help but go to see Oda.

The sudden transparency that day never happened again, but he stared at him frequently, causing Oda himself to ask him if he was okay after get off work one day.

"Uh, no, it's just," Kunikida struggled for a long time before he could tell the real reason, "It's because you have good taste in dressing, and I want to learn it!"

"Thank you. But," Oda Sakunosuke paused:

"Don't I wear the same outfit every day?" And so do you.

Kunikida said, "That's right. After all, I have been here for a long time. Recently, I am considering whether to change to a more stable image."

"So that's how it is." After thinking for a while, Oda Sakunosuke accepted the reason and gave a thumbs up: "It's really you."

Seeing Kunikida Doppo's expression that was a bit indescribable, Oda Saku raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a soothing expression, and turned around to continue tidying up the desk.

Kunikida belatedly realized he was joking, and he took it seriously.I couldn't help laughing, the pressure and doubts accumulated over the past few days were all vented in this little trick.

Sure enough, I have read too many fantasy novels in the past two days, how is it possible that people around me disappear or something.

Kunikida finally felt relieved, smiled and reached out to pat Sakunosuke Oda.

The sides are empty.

A drop of water dripped from the loose tap and smashed into pieces in the sink.

On the entire floor, Kunikida was the only one left.

……

"What happened?"

When Oda Sakunosuke turned around, he found that his colleague's face became extremely ugly in just a few seconds.

This kind of thing happened repeatedly in the remaining days, and each time it lasted longer and longer, from a few seconds, a dozen seconds, to the last few minutes.

The detective agency has tried various solutions, but this is neither supernatural power nor some strange poison.Oda Sakunosuke simply disappeared, as if such a person did not exist in the world.

This happened without warning, even Edogawa Ranpo had no clue,

It was in this situation that the detective agency received a call from Rei Furutani who had already returned to the team.

"Do you know where Sakura is? Is there anyone who can contact her?"

Furutani Rei's anxiety can be felt through the earpiece.He did encounter something urgent.

The same thing happened to Matsuda and Hagiwara.And because of the police station's recent intensive combat meeting, Jiang Gu Ling happened to observe a horrifying fact:

When they became transparent, their positions, name tags, and the names of the two people on the layout plan either disappeared together with the owner, or were replaced by others.

It's like being erased from existence.

Rei Fuguya almost immediately thought of what the main god said, Hagiwara and the others should have died.But Sakura Yamabuki disappeared at this time.

The chat group didn't know when it was disbanded, and the mobile phone couldn't reach anyone. Even if they called Morisha, the other party just said that Sakura Yamabuki had gone on vacation, and the specific situation was unknown.

Unless invited, Yamabuki Sakura's apartment is impossible to find from the outside.The whole person seemed to have evaporated from the world.

"Why did Mr. Jiang Gu's friends disappear? Could it be that someone deliberately targeted the attack?"

Atsushi Nakajima was emotional, but Oda, who was the person involved, was very calm. He answered the phone and asked:

"Does this have anything to do with her?"

Why did you rush to contact Sakura Yamabuki when something like this happened?

There was silence on the other end of the phone, but he still expressed his guess: "I guess, Mr. Oda might also be the one who was going to die."

Jiang Gu Ling works full-time in information and intelligence. He has long noticed that the way the main god controls the world is very similar to computer programs (maybe in turn, the computer imitates the world to run the program).

But even a supercomputer has limited computing power.

As long as everyone is alive, they will occupy part of the computing resources.The operating logic will naturally control the number of deaths and births, ensuring that the computing resources of the supercomputer "world" can support the existence of everyone.

Outsiders interfere with this logic.

Originally, the integration of multiple worlds has already caused a shortage of resources, and the underworld has saved too many people who were scheduled to die, which directly led to too many monks and too little food.

The world cannot support the "existence" of so many people, so the logic runs automatically, and some people begin to be "eliminated" artificially.People like Matsuda who should have died bear the brunt of it.

After speaking a long list, Jiang Gu Ling's voice lowered: "Sorry, I'm also at a loss right now, so I can only call you here..."

He never speaks in this tone, which is enough to see that this incident has exhausted him a bit.

The detective agency feels the same way.They seem to be stuck in a game with a BUG, ​​but they can't contact the maintainers everywhere to fix the BUG, ​​and they can only helplessly watch the situation evolve.

"Why are you frowning? Aren't there just a few solutions?"

Probably because he extracted even more information from the massive amount of information, Ranpo Edogawa sat back on his desk at some point and unwrapped a delicious stick.

Luanbu hasn't eaten much snacks for the past few days. Seeing how he is sitting and eating now, everyone felt a little calmer in their hearts, and heard him say:

"First, kill."

"Second, find the androgynous prisoner and restore the original world."

No matter which one of these two items is feasible, the feasibility is not very high.Edogawa Ranpo then shook his legs.Said the last method:

"Look for an agent, the "God" you are talking about, there should be other clients in the world, right?Besides Sakura? "

"But," Atsushi Nakajima muttered, "Why did Ms. Sakura suddenly disappear?"

When they finally found the surrogate god in Shinobi County, Saiki Kusuo replied:

[I'm sorting out my mood. 】

[If you suddenly find that your father has turned into a delicate and beautiful girl who was still young, you will also feel very complicated. 】

Osamu Dazai let out a "huh" on the spot.

The author says:

Saiki: Can this be said?

cherry:……

*Aleister has more than one billion possibilities sealed in his body, including men, women, old people, and children.The silver-haired girl Aleister was one of the many possibilities.It is characterized by beautiful silver hair and unhealthy white skin.
