Chapter 13 Shota's Wish

"Ring ring ring ring!!!"

Ji Yi and Xie Jiayi exchanged a glance.

Hesitated for two seconds.

Ji Yi picked up the receiver: "Moshi moshi? What are your orders, Misaki Sama? Should we eat first, or take a bath first?"

"Help"

Misaki Maeda's voice came through the receiver.

"Okay, shall I help you with your meal, or help you with your bath?"

Xie Jiayi gave Ji Yi a strange look.

"Help me avenge him by killing him."

"Kill whom? Sato Shigeru?"

“Kill him.”

"No problem, but who exactly are we going to kill?"

Toot toot.
The phone hangs up.

A riddle maker?

"This Jiba child"

[Main Quest Accepted: Misaki's Wish]

Misaki's wish: to avenge her, find the real killer in the serial disappearances of young girls years ago, and kill him.

Instantly, all surviving players saw the new message at the same time.

Side quests are now unlocked.

[Side quest completed so far: 3]

【The Widow's Hope】Completed, completed by: Tang Hulu LV.12.

【Shadows at the Card Table】Completed, completed by: Ji Yi LV.7.

[Tragic Novelist] Completed, completed by: Chicken Leg Immortal Venerable LV.9.

Side quest rewards will be awarded separately after clearing the dungeon.

Hsieh Chia-yi gleaned key information from a series of pop-up windows:

"The serial killer who dismembered the body is someone else. It's no wonder this is a nightmare-level difficulty game. The truth of the past is indeed not so simple."

Ji Yi looked at her: "Is this your first time entering the Nightmare Book?"

"No, I cleared the Nightmare dungeon once before. But that dungeon didn't have any elements to unlock the world's lore, and the character panel wasn't locked. It mainly relied on strategy and combat skills."

"So you're a PVE pro, my apologies."

Ji Yi cupped his hands in a fist salute.

Miss Cat didn't respond:
"Have you ever thought about how to kill an enemy that even Maeda Misaki couldn't handle?"

Ji Yi was also taken aback when she heard this.

Yes.

Misaki Maeda is a very strong player in card games.

To say she can't beat anyone.
"The Hundred-Eyed Demon King, is that it?"

"What did you say?" Miss Cat asked.

"It's alright. I might have a clue about the mission objective, but I'm not sure. Let's gather more clues, okay?"

"what happened?"

Ji Yi frowned and placed the receiver in front of Miss Cat.

[Name: A Destroyed Telephone Handle]

[Type: Other]

[Quality: Deteriorated]

[Effect: None]

Can it be taken out of the instance: No

[Note: Part of the red telephone booth has completely lost its supernatural power and can no longer make calls.]

The two exchanged a glance and immediately slipped into the red telephone booth.

All players' dial pad buttons turned gray.

"What's going on?" Ji Yi frowned. "Could it be that the mission has entered a critical stage, and something has happened to Misaki's condition?"

Miss Cat shook her head: "I don't know."

The situation is becoming increasingly bizarre.

After discussing it, the two decided to go to Sakurayama Elementary School again to look for clues about the main quest.

"If the murderer isn't Shigeru Sato, then who is it?"

On the way, Ji Yi seemed to be asking herself a question.

“It’s definitely human,” Miss Cat replied.

".nonsense."

After thinking for a while, Ji Yi finally took out the paranormal photos.

Miss Cat tilted her head: "Didn't you say to use it only in crucial moments?"

“He must have intelligence on him, which is definitely more useful than being a henchman.” After saying that, he tore the photo apart.

A wisp of black smoke seeped out from the tear and condensed into a little boy with mushroom-shaped hair.

The boy looked no different from any other living child, except that his overall appearance seemed to have been dimmed by several shades, including his clothes.

"Shota Suzuki? Can you speak?"

"Yes." The child nodded in response, proving that he could indeed obey commands.

"How did you die?" Ji Yi asked.

"Hmm," he tilted his head back and thought for a while, "I don't know, I only remember that it was one night, and I was hiding behind a broken street lamp as usual, trying to scare people. But I didn't see anyone, and then I don't know anything else."

"Tsk."

The Dark Ghosts could provide less information than one might expect.

"Give me back my shadow first. I'll ask you any more questions later."

"Ok."

Dark Ghost responded, and then a tall, well-proportioned male shadow emerged from beneath his feet.

Xie Jiayi secretly sized him up until his shadow fell at Ji Yi's feet and gradually became the shadow of the otaku.

"Judging by his figure alone, he's not bad."

That's what she thought.

Ji Yi didn't notice any of this and asked the Dark Ghost another question:

Why are you afraid of Misaki?

"She's so amazing, who wouldn't be afraid of her?"

Dark Ghost whispered.

"Do you know who the real killer of Misaki is?"

"I don't know," Dark Ghost shook his head.

"Fine, let me ask you this: who in this area is better than Misaki?"

Dark Demon didn't think too much: "No, Misaki-nee is the most powerful person I've ever met."

Ji Yi frowned: "Have you ever heard of the Hundred-Eyed Demon King?"

Dark Ghost shook his head.

Let’s do it.

This is just a nobody; he knows nothing when asked.

Ji Yi had given up hope and could only try to squeeze the last bit of value out of the Dark Ghost to see if she could get another side quest reward.

"Do you have any wishes? Why don't you become a Buddha after you die?"

The dark ghost raised its head: "I want to drink raw cola. I won't become a Buddha until I drink it."

"The kind that makes you glow after drinking Pennsylvania liquor?"

"I don't know, it's a newly launched product. My mom brought me a can when she came back from out of town that day, but I died before I could drink it. I feel so regretful, I really wanted to drink it once."

What? Children's wishes are so simple.

At this moment, Miss Cat interjected, "I think I saw a vending machine in the direction of the school."

Ji Yi nodded: "That's perfect, let's go take a look."

The two people and the ghost walked side by side.

The ghost was very honest; it was unclear whether it was the effect of the ghostly photograph or because he had an obsession with raw cola.

"arrive."

At the street corner, Miss Cat pointed to the vending machine.

【Name: Vending Machine】

[Type: props]

[Quality: Ordinary]

[Effect: Possesses all the functions of a vending machine]

Can it be taken out of the instance: No

[Note: This vending machine also has a strange legend associated with it. Hey, don't be surprised, Japan is a land of outstanding people and beautiful scenery.]

Ji Yi watched for a while.

They actually have raw Coke inside, 100 yen a bottle.

Then, a whooshing sound came from beside her ear, and a small knife appeared out of Miss Cat's hand with a "whoosh".

"I'll try to pry it open, if not..."

She was about to say that she also had a chainsaw when Ji Yi stopped her:
"How can you steal in front of a child like that? You're setting a bad example for him. What if he grows up to be a criminal? Children are the flowers of our country, the pillars of the future!"

Miss Cat: "."

Shota: "Brother, maybe I'll never grow up."

Ji Yi ignored it, and a flash of light appeared in her palm.

A 500-yuan coin with green fuzz suddenly appeared in his hand.

"Let me treat you to a drink."
