Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

"Don't you realize how dangerous that criminal is!? According to the Osaka Prefectural Police's report, besides the sniper rifle used in the crime, not a single trace was left at the scene. No fingerprints, hair, skin tissue, nothing that can be traced. Such a vicious and audacious criminal, we must…"

"Commander Yagami, you've probably misunderstood."

L raised his head and glanced at Soichiro Yagami, yawned, and said lazily.

"Assassination with a sniper rifle? I'm not interested in such boring cases at all. The only criminal I'm interested in is 'Kira'."

"You…"

After this period of contact, Soichiro Yagami had more or less figured it out.

What kind of famous detective, what kind of trump card of the Metropolitan Police Department…

This L's motivation for investigating "Kira" is not out of any form of justice, but simply because he finds it interesting, so he does it.

Does Soichiro Yagami agree with "Kira's" ideas and practices?

He doesn't agree.

But similarly, he doesn't agree with L's approach either.

This guy is like he's possessed.

The serial poisoning murders in Tokyo, and some other difficult-to-solve cases, L doesn't pay attention to them at all.

He's like he's bewitched, with only "Kira" in his eyes.

This is by no means justice, let alone something correct like "Mask," even though it violates the rules.

"Whatever."

Soichiro Yagami was silent for a few seconds, then said with a serious face.

"But as the head of the special investigation team, I will invest all the existing police force, that is, this group of the most outstanding criminal police officers in Sakura Province, into supporting the Osaka Prefectural Police's case. If you want to continue investigating 'Kira,' then go investigate alone, otherwise, provide us with assistance and solve the case in Osaka as soon as possible."

After saying that, Soichiro Yagami flicked his sleeves and left the war room directly.

Listening to the sound of him slamming the door, L's eyes revealed a thoughtful look, and he said softly to Watari, who was standing beside him and had been silent all the time.

"I… am losing this game bit by bit."

Watari slowly opened his mouth and replied.

"Then why don't you consider helping the Metropolitan Police Department's investigation? Perhaps the case in Osaka is also related to 'Kira' in some way."

L nodded slightly, expressionless.

"Perhaps, that's the only way."

Helping the Metropolitan Police Department investigate the case in Osaka, L doesn't actually feel resistant.

In normal times, this kind of case where a high-ranking official of the Metropolitan Police Department is assassinated in public, and no traces are found except for a sniper rifle, the murder weapon, would be enough to arouse the interest of him, the world's number one detective.

It's just that L has a vague feeling.

If he does this…

He is acting according to "Kira's" expectations. Although he doesn't know why the other party wants to draw his attention to Osaka, but doing so…

He has lost a step.

On the other side, inside the high school that Light Yagami attends.

"Was everything completed successfully?"

"Completed."

Hearing Yozora's affirmative answer from the other side of the phone, Light Yagami couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile.

"There are no related news reports, it seems that the mastermind behind the scenes hasn't taken any action on this. However, since it's just the beginning of your school's field trip, it's best to be careful in the next few days."

Yozora replied in a relaxed tone.

"Of course, do you have any progress on your side?"

"Yes, I'll be able to catch that guy soon. After all, some things can't be observed by ordinary people, but they are very clear in the eyes of people like you and me."

"That's good."

After hanging up the phone, Light Yagami, leaning on the railing of the teaching building's rooftop, revealed a hint of scarlet in his brown eyes, and muttered to himself.

"So now, facing the joint pursuit of 'Mask,' 'Kira,' and the world's number one detective L, how will you respond?"

Chapter 315: A Date with Saki Kawasaki, the Deduction of the Strongest Detective

On the other side, Yozora is enjoying a rare school trip.

In order to quell public opinion, the Osaka Prefectural Police certainly couldn't do things like imposing martial law, actions that would be like a guilty person protesting their innocence too much. If they really blockaded the entire city and didn't inform the specific reason, that would be the most troublesome.

People's imagination is infinite.

Rumors such as zombies, biochemical viruses, Cthulhu evil gods escaping the seal, and mysterious terrorist organizations infiltrating Osaka would spread within half a day.

By that time, even if the Osaka Prefectural Police explained the truth, probably no one would believe it.

Because of this, the Osaka Prefectural Police took a wise choice, which was to increase the police force and inspection efforts at various traffic arteries, striving not to let any suspicious person leave, but that was all.

Yozora didn't have the idea of launching an investigation in this city.

As the saying goes, specialization in a field is key.

In terms of criminal investigation, L is the undisputed number one in the world. The reason why he hasn't caught Light Yagami's trail after spending so much time is only because the soul manifestation ability is much more powerful than the Death Note in the original plot, and it's also much more convenient.

In other words.

L is still that L, but Light Yagami is firm in will, hasn't lost his mind, maintains rational thinking, and doesn't use tools like the Death Note, but is the ultimate strengthened version where great power belongs to oneself.

If he could be caught, that would be a ghost.

It can only be said that this version of Light Yagami is too fierce, not L's type.

L's incredibly intelligent mind, coupled with the support of the entire Sakura Province Metropolitan Police Department, as long as he enters the game as Light Yagami expects, then catching the so-called Izanami God's main body is only a matter of time.

The things one is good at should be left to the people who are good at them.

And what the God of Harem is good at is…

"Saki, are you still angry?"

Hearing Ye Xing's relaxed tone, tinged with laughter, Saki Kawasaki, dressed in casual clothes, turned her face away, deliberately avoiding looking at him, and softly harrumphed, her voice revealing obvious dissatisfaction.

“You… you’re such a frustrating guy. We’ve been together for so long, and this is the first time you’ve asked me out alone. Hmph, I thought you’d forgotten about me.”

“Eh, don’t go throwing accusations around.”

Ye Xing frowned slightly, switching to an offensive stance.

“Last time, I did ask you to go to the comic convention with me, but you were the one who insisted on inviting Kitagawa-san. You can’t blame me for that, can you?”

Hearing this, Saki Kawasaki was momentarily stunned, a hint of guilt and helplessness appearing on her face. Suddenly, she realized something was off, and she almost laughed out of anger.

“You… you’re trying to twist the truth here, aren’t you? You were the one who invited Marin, and then Marin invited me. Do you think I’m an old lady with amnesia?”

“Oh, my bad.”

Ye Xing's attitude changed swiftly, sincerely.

“I thought I could get away with it. I underestimated you.”

“You…”

Saki Kawasaki gently bit her pearly teeth, her fair cheeks flushed with anger. She harrumphed coldly and walked forward on her own. Of course, Ye Xing still followed beside her, walking along with her.

After strolling along the street for a while, Saki Kawasaki suddenly stopped, a hint of dimness and disappointment in her eyes. She lowered her head, abandoning her previous angry attitude, and instead said in a somewhat sorrowful voice.

“Is it because I… don’t have abilities like Miko and the others…? So when you say you like me… is it just a casual, perfunctory thing?”

The God of Harems once again faced a test.

Generally speaking, there are two answers to this question.

The first is to directly say, “That’s right, that’s how it is.”

Generally speaking, this option is always there to lead directly to a BADEND, unlocking a CG image, and then re-selecting. No normal person would choose this option.

The second is to explain.

However, this isn’t a single-route dating sim, but a true harem.

When Saki Kawasaki mentioned Miko and the others, the second option was already unviable. The more he said, the more likely she would feel disappointed, believing that she, who hadn't awakened any spiritual powers, was inferior to Miko and the others, just like Yui Yuigahama back then.

Fortunately, this wasn't a fixed-route galgame, and Ye Xing wasn't an ordinary protagonist either.

At this moment, he gave a perfect answer that exceeded the passing grade.

“No, it’s precisely because you don’t have abilities like Miko and the others that I still fell in love with you. That proves the value of this feeling.”

Hearing this, Saki Kawasaki was stunned for a moment. She raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes, and raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, timidly saying.

“Really? You’re not just哄骗 me, are you?”

Saki Kawasaki originally had a cold and aloof appearance, with an aggressive edge that made people hesitant to approach, like an ice-cold beauty. Coupled with her tall model figure of around 1.75 meters, she appeared very mature. But now, making such a teary-eyed, aggrieved expression…

It actually had a strange, contrasting cuteness?

Ye Xing nodded very seriously.

“Of course, it’s true.”

“I don’t believe you unless you kiss me.”

Looking at Saki Kawasaki's cute, spoiled appearance, Ye Xing leaned in and gently kissed her soft lips, chuckling.

“Are you satisfied now?”

“Yeah, satisfied.”

Saki Kawasaki smiled through her tears, affectionately linking her arm with Ye Xing's.

If she was angry, she was indeed genuinely angry.

However, based on Saki Kawasaki’s understanding of Ye Xing, would he pretend to like her for reasons like maintaining harmony within the club, even if he didn't actually like her?

Absolutely impossible.

This president of the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Research Society had already openly declared his harem intentions. The words "pretend" and "force" were completely unrelated to him.

Just as Ye Xing said, compared to the other members of the Super-Dimensional Society, Saki Kawasaki didn't have anything special besides her appearance.

Even so, Ye Xing still said he liked her…

Wasn't that a testament to its value?

Furthermore, although Saki Kawasaki could be a little willful, she wasn't an unreasonable person. She knew that Ye Xing had been very busy lately.

“Then today, you don’t have anything else to do, right?”

Seeing Saki Kawasaki’s cautious appearance, tinged with a hint of hope, Ye Xing replied without hesitation.

“Of course. I’m dedicating today to you.”

Saki Kawasaki couldn’t help but reveal a smile at first, but then, as if feeling that her expression was too shy, she muttered softly.

“Don’t go back on your word, or I’ll really get angry.”

… …

Later that evening, while Ye Xing was taking a rare break, going on a date with Saki Kawasaki, a video conference was taking place in police headquarters operation rooms all over Sakura Province.

“The situation is as I just explained. Only a sniper rifle was left at the scene. Other than that, there are no traceable clues.”

“A sniper rifle, huh…”

Soichiro Yagami looked at the black heavy sniper rifle in the evidence bag on the screen from the Osaka Police Department, his brow furrowing slightly. Just as he was about to say something, the door behind him was suddenly pushed open.

He turned his head and saw L yawning, looking listless, slowly walking in from the doorway.

After entering the operations room, L didn't say much. Instead, he immediately squatted on the chair, looking at the black sniper rifle on the screen, and slowly opened his mouth.

“There were no clues left at the scene, yet the most important flaw, the murder weapon used, was left behind. This is very illogical.”
