Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

"Brother, the contents of the car are correct; they could add up to 20 billion yen."

Vodka opened the light car door and smiled at Gin.

Gin nodded and took out his phone to send a text message to Qi Ming.

Akemi Miyano is dead.

【Okay, I'll be right there】

……

A few minutes later, Qi Ming arrived in his Porsche.

He looked at Akemi Miyano's corpse on the ground and forced a few tears to fall.

Perhaps it can't be called forced.

After all, the bodies of those who died there belonged to them.

"My silly little sister, you're so pitiful! You died just like that, before we even leveled up our intimacy level!"

"A parent outliving their child, how could you be so pitiful, my silly sister!"

Qi Ming approached the corpse with a mournful expression. After collecting the glowing, fallen items that only he could see into his spatial storage, his expression instantly calmed down, and his mournful cries abruptly ceased.

Qi Ming stopped paying attention to the corpse and threw a recording pen at Gin.

Gin caught it precisely. "What is this?"

"Hehe, good stuff."

Qi Ming's expression returned to normal, and he grinned at Gin as if he were the same person who had been looking miserable earlier.

Gin pressed the recorder, and after a brief period of static, he heard different people speaking.

After listening to the contents, Gin remained silent for a moment, then a cold smile appeared on his face.

“Excellent, the organization just needs these things right now.”

The recording pen contained nothing but the accounts of officials' glorious deeds, which Qi Ming had recorded in the casino.

[A recording of the corrupt official has been submitted; organization reputation +1000]

Upon hearing the system's feedback, Qi Ming's smile widened.

Although this game is a single-player game, it does have a ranking system. To improve your rank, you must increase your reputation.

Peripheral members – code name members – cadres – regional leaders – third-in-command – second-in-command – boss.

Organization reputation can be gained by completing tasks, but in most cases a single task doesn't give much.

However, if you complete multiple tasks within a day, your reputation will increase accordingly.

Another way to gain prestige is to take initiative and do things that benefit the organization, in addition to completing tasks.

The prestige gained in this way is far greater than simply accepting organizational assignments.

Qi Ming didn't linger. After shielding the bloodstains from "his" corpse, he placed it in the passenger seat of the Porsche.

"Old Qin, I'll take [Miyano Akemi's] body with me to my final resting place."

Gin was about to nod in response, but then, remembering Miyano Akemi's behavior earlier, he went to Qi Ming's car and said, "How did you turn Miyano Akemi into this?"

Qi Ming raised an eyebrow and smiled mysteriously at Gin.

"Hmm? You also want to discuss the philosophy of games with me?"

Gin's eyes narrowed slightly, and a rare hint of rejection flickered in his mind.

He glanced to the side, giving up on asking Qi Ming for methods of brainwashing.

If he could understand Madeira's thoughts, he'd probably be close to going insane himself.

"Hmph, whatever. I'll let you know if I catch a mouse in the future."

"You come here to squeeze every last drop of value from them."

[I have received a long-term mission: to brainwash traitors and squeeze the last drop of value from them.]

Task rewards: will be distributed randomly based on actual circumstances.

"Got it!"

With everything settled, Qi Ming drove away with the corpse, planning to find a deserted mountain and detonate a few C4 bombs.

……

Research Lab at Base 1.

Shiho Miyano seemed somewhat distracted.

Especially after hearing what Qi Ming said to me on the way back from our last outing.

It's not meant as a derogatory term; in Shiho Miyano's impression, Qi Ming was not a respectable person.

When such an unserious person spoke seriously, Shiho Miyano felt something was off, as if something big was about to happen.

Perhaps she had already noticed some signs, such as her inability to contact her sister for the past two days.

"Last time, my sister said she would take on the mission Gin gave us so that we could leave the organization. Did she really take it?"

"That Madera guy is really something, why doesn't he answer my calls... Is he on some kind of mission?"

Shiho Miyano absentmindedly tapped the glass on the table, a feeling that made her very uncomfortable.

"Lord Gin, Lord Vodka, you're back?"

"Ah."

Hearing the sounds coming from outside, even though Shiho Miyano was afraid of Gin, she still got up and left the room.

"Gin, did my sister ask you to take on a mission?"

Shiho Miyano stood in front of Gin, took a deep breath, and asked seriously.

Gin gave Shiho Miyano a cold look. "What do you think?"

"She's dead, and she died a quick death."

Shiho Miyano's pupils dilated, and she involuntarily took two steps back. "You, what did you say? Why? She posed no threat at all. Why kill her!"

Gin let out a cold laugh. "No comment."

Shiho Miyano's mind went blank for a moment, then she remembered something and said to Gin, "Madeira, where's Madeira? I want to see him!"

Gin walked past Shiho Miyano and said in a cold voice:

"Madera, you're collecting your sister's body."

"..."

Shiho Miyano stood there blankly, her mind a complete blank.

After a long pause, she took a deep breath, turned around, looked directly into Gin's eyes, and said in a low voice:

"I will no longer work for you."

"Absolutely not."

……

In a certain solitary confinement cell.

Shiho Miyano slumped on the cold ground, staring at the moon through the iron-barred window, feeling utterly lost.

After saying she refused to work, she naturally knew what awaited her.

He was locked in solitary confinement, waiting for her to change her mind and agree to continue the drug research.

Or perhaps the organization found a replacement for her and executed her after a certain period...

Is it possible for him to change his mind?

She already loathed this organization, and now they've even taken away her last remaining family members. How could she possibly have the heart to stay here?

Shiho Miyano kept her head down, a cold smile on her face.

My sister still accepted the mission, determined to help them escape the organization, despite Madeira's advice.

Madera must have known that his sister had taken on the mission, so why didn't he tell me?

Besides, Madeira should have been able to save his sister with his abilities, but he...

Thinking of this, Shiho Miyano shook her head.

Ultimately, you can't rely on others for your own path, nor can you ask God for your own destiny.

Madeira owes them nothing; on the contrary, they probably owe him a lot.

Even if Qi Ming treats them well, he is still a member of the organization, so how could he possibly go against the organization's decision?

Shiho Miyano shook the iron chain, a complex expression on her face.

If I keep refusing to go back to him, will he come to see me? Or will he feel bad?

If he were to be executed, would he feel sad?

Shiho Miyano's thoughts were in disarray when she suddenly remembered what Madeira had told her when she returned that day.

Only by living is there anything possible; once you're dead, you have nothing left.

While that makes sense, can she really force herself to stay here?

Just as Shiho Miyano was struggling with her decision, she heard the voices of two members talking outside the door.

"Dude, still keeping watch here? Want to grab a smoke?"

"I'm not going. I have to keep an eye on Sherry. This is what Boss Gin told me to do."

"Oh, it's nothing. I just passed by the conference room and heard Gin and Vodka talking about how Lord Madeira has arranged everything, so there's no need to worry."

"Oh, is that so? Then I'll just take a small puff?"

"Then let's go!"
