Transmigrated into Conan, his ability is Rhodes Island

Chapter 159 Abundant Harvest Every Year

Within ten seconds of Akihara's words, the system went silent as if it had crashed. The small ball of light that had been emitting a soft white glow gradually turned deathly pale, clearly looking terrified.

Just before it emitted a sharp, explosive sound, Akihara Kazumitsu calmly spoke up: "I was just kidding."

The system couldn't catch its breath and almost choked to death.

Okay, it's just a virtual pet, it won't choke to death.

"I was just stating the worst-case scenario, look how scared you are." Akihara leaned back, and a sofa appeared out of thin air in the white space to catch him. Judging from the logo, it was the Rhodes Island meeting room setup.

The system breathed a sigh of relief, muttering under its breath, "It's terrifying, okay? It's the worst story I've ever heard, even worse than 'Doubling the performance target, it must all be finished by the end of the month, this little bit of work is taking this long? Even a snail can't finish it faster than you guys'..."

Akihara paused subtly, probably questioning what kind of image their main god actually had.

"Ahem, do you want to hear any other guesses? For example, you're not the only system in this world. There are other transmigrators and systems competing with us, and the world is a giant battle royale game. They infiltrate this world in a more covert way, using some kind of technology beyond this world's, waiting to trick us here."

"Isn't this even more terrifying?!" The system instantly exploded, protesting on the verge of collapse, "I'm just a single-player socially awkward system, I have absolutely no desire to play PVP battle royale!"

Akihara Kazuhiro's lips curled into a slightly mischievous smile. "Or perhaps we're beings from a higher dimension. Maybe in 'their' eyes we were just a third-rate novel, and the real protagonist transmigrated into this novel, foresaw my actions, and altered the timeline and causality to stop my 'evil deeds.' It's like the character who was about to reveal a crucial clue, but died before he could take his last breath..."

System: "...That sounds familiar, but since this is already a time-travel story, wouldn't it be a bit like a nested doll if I had to go through it again?"

"Hmm, so I have 108 other guesses here, like whether you've heard of the Observer, or the 'Lumberjack'..."

Akihara's smile deepened. "Let me tell you a story."

……

As the system left, the entire sphere was in a daze, hitting countless physical walls, and muttering things like "lumberjack" and "amber".

Akihara seemed to be in a much better mood; it's better to be anxious together than alone. He stretched lazily with a cheerful expression, stood up from the sofa, and the previously white space disappeared as he stood up.

Just then, Amuro Tooru, who was standing next to him, twitched his eyelids and opened his eyes in a daze.

The mountains became bright and moist, the water rose, and the sun blushed.

His mind was now like a Russian stew, a jumble of memories and clues he'd gathered when he was lucid, like adding ingredients to a pot, and a jumble of random thoughts adding seasonings when he was confused, ultimately turning into a huge mess. Then, Qiu Yuanyi's saw handle flipped the pot over, leaving him completely bewildered, wondering who he was, where he was, and what he was doing.

"You're awake!" The first thing she saw was Su Dai's face. She leaned closer, her worry almost exaggerated. "The surgery was a success. You've become a girl..."

Congratulations! Amuro Tooru discovered that he could actually face Su Dai's punchable face with a calm and composed mind.

Seeing that he hadn't reacted for a long time and was a little too calm, Su Dai muttered, "Could it be that the child has been knocked silly?" As she spoke, she went over and touched his forehead.

"Hey, do you remember who I am? What number is this?"

Amuro Tooru shoved Su Dai's hand away from his face, his voice still hoarse from just waking up: "I... what happened? What's going on?"

Su Dai wiped away non-existent tears. "How was I supposed to know? You came to this remote mountain village on a paid vacation all by yourself, only to get scammed into a pyramid scheme. If it weren't for your Uncle Zhuxing and me coming all the way here to rescue you, you might have even had your kidneys cut off by now..."

Amuro Tooru's head hurt even more, he didn't know if it was from being disturbed or from being hit earlier.

"This pyramid scheme is not only a scam but also has some cult-like characteristics. They claim that the church is building a 'sacred charitable fund,' and that as long as believers invest money, they can not only gain wealth in this world but also ascend to heaven after death." Su Dai continued, heartbroken, "Bourbon, Bourbon, you can't just join a cult and get brainwashed because the church is giving out eggs!"

Amuro Tooru: It seems to subtly match up with my memories...

Su Dai was a little short of breath after speaking all that, and after catching her breath, she patted Amuro Tooru on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Don't believe the false promises of churches, donations and investments are all scams. What are you waiting for? Download the national anti-fraud app now!"

Aside from the person in the back seat who seemed to be a codenamed member of the organization, "Bourbon," I didn't hear a single useful word from Uncle Moroboshi, who had inexplicably been promoted in rank.

Shuichi Akai and Rei Furuya, these two arch-enemies, should have had a fateful encounter, but Su Dai turned it into a hilarious comedy filming set.

"I am such a sinful man," Akihara Kazumitsu confessed in his heart.

Their encounter must have been on a dark and stormy night. One was wearing a trench coat, the other a shirt and suit—both dressed in complete darkness. They brushed past each other in a narrow alley, and just as their eyes met, an invisible spark filled the air. Accompanied by the background music of "Nemesis is indeed nemesis," a bomb exploded not far away, instantly illuminating the two of them in broad daylight, illuminating their profiles, and so on...

Just then, a deep, loud bang came from the direction they had just left, like a muffled thunderclap from the horizon.

Qiu Yuan thought to himself in surprise, "Wow, you even know how to add background music to my imagination."

system:……

"What are you talking about?! A mushroom cloud is rising from the direction of the church!"

Shuichi Akai slammed on the brakes, but the action didn't seem abrupt, and other vehicles driving normally on the road also stopped.

Amuro looked out the car window and saw a mushroom cloud slowly rising against the gray sky on the distant horizon. The flames from the explosion flickered in the thick smoke, and although it was far away, Amuro seemed to be able to clearly feel the eerie heat emanating from it.

My head started to hurt again.

Akihara was not surprised by this outcome; the organization never disappointed when it came to bombings, silencing witnesses, and killing its own people. Hearing the system report that all the children from the nearby orphanage had reached safety, Akihara felt more relaxed than anyone else present.

After a brief moment of shock, the other two people in the car turned their gazes to Su Dai, who smiled.

"There is an old saying that goes, 'Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish.' Perhaps the Yatagarasu finally couldn't stand the pyramid schemes using His name to swindle and deceive, and cast the wrath of the fat little boy acting as His representative."

“Boom—” Akihara’s lips curled up in a playful smile. He made an explosion gesture, “And so all the evil vanished.”
