Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

Including his clothes, my cousin was wearing a branded sportswear and the pair of sneakers on his feet cost at least a thousand yuan, and the clothes and shoes he wore were hot-selling items on Pinduoduo.

It seems that Baijiu's original family was quite poor before he traveled through time...

As soon as this thought came into Rabbit's mind, a strong and suppressed emotion hit his heart in the next second.

"?!!"

The three-headed demon switched signs: [This is emotional synchronization, or empathy. You can feel the other person's true emotions when they face these events. ]

...Isn't this a BUG?!

The rabbit wanted to shout like this, but he couldn't say a word. At this moment, he seemed to have become a white dove, and his feelings became his own feelings.

——When his mother twisted his thigh under the table to save some money, and he saw his aunt and uncle opposite him laughing, he wished the shame would disappear immediately.

...and the resentment of wanting to work hard to climb up and trample all those who look down on him today under his feet one day in the future.

Finally, this scene disappeared, and at the same time, all the negative emotions in my heart disappeared.

Just as the rabbit was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a new scene slowly appeared before his eyes...

……

What appeared this time was a movie theater.

Baijiu waited next to the ticket machine and looked at the escalator not far away, as if he was waiting for someone and talking to someone on the phone.

The rabbit went closer to listen and found out that he was talking to his roommate.

During their conversation, Rabbit learned that Baijiu had a girlfriend in college.

His family was not well off. His mother worked as a cleaner in a company and earned only 3,000 yuan a month. She gave him 1,000 yuan a month for living expenses, sometimes even less.

His girlfriend can make several times the money she spends on mobile games, anime and chasing stars every month. She can buy five or six orders of 648 yuan and front-row tickets for concerts without blinking an eye. If it’s not enough, she can just ask her parents for it.

Because of their different consumption concepts, they often quarreled, and she often ordered him to do this and that, in order to show off how good her boyfriend was to her in front of her roommates.

If he disobeyed, she would threaten to break up with him. Every time, he would give in first, apologize to her and admit his mistakes.

Rabbit has never been in a relationship, but he doesn't think this is a normal relationship. No matter whether it is family, friendship or love, both parties should give to each other, so that it can be maintained for a long time - there is a saying that goes, a dog who licks his love will not die well.

However, just when Rabbit thought this was a story about a conceited princess and the dog who licked her mindlessly, Baijiu's next words made him wake up.

"...Brothers usually try to reconcile rather than break up, but the one you're dating is too extreme." The person on the other end of the phone was also helpless, "Listen to my advice, break up quickly, isn't it better to find someone who loves and respects you?"

Bai Jiu seemed to have a good relationship with the other party: "The next condition may not be so good, and..." He paused, trying to save face: "She is willing to spend money on me."

The rabbit then realized that his clothes and cell phone had been changed to nice brands.

Where does so much love come from? Where do so many idiots who are truly willing to be bootlickers come from? The reality is so simple - if you break up with this one, the next one may be more gentle than her, but the conditions will not be better than her.

The other party asked directly, "Did you spend as much as she did on her celebrity brother? I remember you said that the autographed photo she bought cost more than 8,000 or 18,000?"

"..."

Baijiu stopped talking.

After the call ended, his girlfriend still didn't come. Rabbit saw him pick up his phone and open some photo album.

——Inside, there are pictures full of male celebrities’ heads photoshopped onto cockroaches, flies, turtles, and abused animals.

"........."

This time, Rabbit was speechless. His hunch was right. Baijiu was a very violent and mean person. Because he couldn't resist his girlfriend who liked these stars, he vented his anger in this way.

The power of empathy made the rabbit feel twistedly happy. He didn't like the happiness gained in this way at all. He turned his head to look at the movie poster on the wall.

One of them caught his attention - "Halloween Bride".

He saw the familiar little boy Conan on it, and based on the description of his appearance given to him by his former classmates, he recognized Toru Amuro/Bourbon Whiskey/Furutani Rei among them.

Are the unfamiliar people behind Toru Amuro his colleagues? Is another undercover public security agent also among them?

Rabbit noted down the features of those people, two of whom were bomb disposal police officers who appeared in the 1200 million hostages episode, and he planned to tell Aoyagi Akiko when he got out. At this moment, the picture began to distort again.

……

This time it was a bus stop.

Bai Jiu was wearing the same clothes as the ones he had just seen, and there was a beautifully dressed girl beside him, who might be his girlfriend.

The car came quickly, and Rabbit followed them into the car.They chose a two-person seat and sat down. Rabbit did not sit down and held the armrest beside them.

"This time, "Halloween Bride" is the best theater version in recent years!"

Did he just finish watching a movie? Rabbit felt a little regretful. If he could watch it along, he might be able to determine the identity of the other undercover agent...

Baijiu heard his girlfriend's voice and subconsciously thought she was talking to him. Just as he was about to agree, he found out that the other party was talking on WeChat and she was chatting with someone via voice.

"..."

Bai Jiu withdrew his gaze in disappointment and started playing with his phone. He opened the short video APP and started watching it casually.

With this swipe, he suddenly sat up straight with his eyes wide open; the rabbit noticed his large movements and watched the video with him.

It was a news story about a man who violently broke into a checkpoint and dragged a police officer to death.

When Rabbit saw Baijiu gritting his teeth, his feelings at the moment were also transmitted back to his body at the same time - it was a strong feeling of sadness and anger.

Baijiu scrolled down the comments, and most people strongly condemned this behavior. Occasionally, there were one or two comments that raised people's blood pressure, and a lot of people were cursing. After seeing this, Baijiu quickly joined the cursing camp, spitting foul language.

He was typing, and because he was so excited, the sound of typing heavily on the screen attracted the attention of his girlfriend next to him: "Who are you talking to?"

"We're not chatting, we're commenting. It's a piece of news that's on the hot search list. Someone violently broke through the checkpoint and dragged a policeman. The policeman died in the line of duty... What a beast, he was so anxious to get such a short time. My father was killed in the same way. He was less than 30 years old at the time..."

Baijiu sounded excited. Rabbit was stunned when he heard his words and understood why he became a single-parent family.

At the same time, I also understand his current excitement. When you are dissatisfied with something, you always hope that the people around you will scold and condemn it together. Having a common "enemy" is a way to enhance feelings.

"Really? I haven't paid attention to this."

My girlfriend didn’t even raise her head.

After dealing with her boyfriend, she continued chatting with her friends. Because they were using voice, Rabbit and White Dove both heard what she said.

"Qingshan is so heartless. They were all such excellent police officers, but he let them die so young... Hey, please listen to this song. It suits them so well. I almost cried when I heard it..."

This tone made the rabbit stunned.

Why does her tone... sound a bit like Hojo Toika?

However, this time, before Rabbit could feel Baijiu's inner emotions, the scene in front of him began to distort for the third time...

----

It's basically the plot before the time travel, which is very boring (I feel like I'm going to give up again), but it's very important and must be written...

Chapter 26: The Sin of Jealousy (Part )

The rabbit tried hard to calm his ups and downs.

Empathy has its pros and cons. The pros are that it allows people to empathize and truly understand the pain of others. The cons are that if one’s heart is not firm enough, one will also be affected by that negative emotion…

This time the image was distorted for a longer time than before. Rabbit took advantage of this gap to take a few deep breaths and felt his manic heart gradually calm down.

He did not forget the original purpose of his visit and began to organize the existing clues.

Of the two players, Bai Jiu comes from a poor family, which causes him to have a strong self-esteem. He cares a lot about being looked down upon by others, is narrow-minded, has a strong desire for revenge, and is good at superficial disguise and endurance.

As for the other Hojo Tobiko...

Thinking of her smug expression when others fell into her trap out of kindness, the rabbit felt a chill in his heart.

Judging from their personalities, these two people are not easy to mess with.

The rabbit sighed, not thinking about the future for the time being, focusing on the present. He didn't know what he would see next.

In fact, what he wanted to see most was what happened when Baijiu traveled through time. The system said that they were chosen as players because their lives were in danger in reality. He wanted to know what the danger was... When he saw Baijiu, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Unfortunately, the next scene disappointed the rabbit.

——What appeared before him was the Metropolitan Police Academy.

……

Bai Jiu appeared in front of him again, wearing a blue police academy uniform, holding a revolver, and pulling the trigger at a target in the distance.

"boom!"

"Boom!"

He fired quickly, and several bullets hit the 8-10 rings in turn. After shooting, he put down the gun, turned to his colleague beside him, and stared at the opponent's target.

Rabbit recognized that the person standing next to him was Toru Amuro - or Rei Furuya. His blond hair from being a mixed-blood stood out among the crowd of black hair.

He was calm and composed, aiming at the target and shooting with a steadier posture and faster speed.

"Bang bang bang!"

All hit in 10 rings.

“As expected of you, Furuya!”

The instructor came over and patted Furuya Rei's shoulder, then looked at Bai Jiu, "Bai Jiu is not bad either. It's just that you are too impatient. If you can be more calm, you can achieve better results."

Baijiu said nothing.

The rabbit felt that he was unhappy at this moment.

There's nothing they can do about it. Before they traveled through time, they were ordinary people in a country with a strict gun ban, and they were not shooting athletes. It's normal that they are not as good as the geniuses in the original book. He thinks Baijiu is already very good now.

Unfortunately, Baijiu didn’t think so, and his unhappy mood continued until the end of the shooting training.

The young boys from the police academy who had finished their training walked out of the training ground one after another. At the same time, the girls also completed their training and walked out of another training ground next door.

They were chatting and laughing, and some of them waved and greeted the boys of the same class.

"Hey, Hagiwara! Do you want to have lunch together later?"

"You can ask Matsuda to come along!"

A boy with medium-length hair stopped and Rabbit recognized him as another bomb disposal policeman who was killed in the opening scene of the 1200 million hostages episode.

"Sorry, we have to go out for lunch. Maybe next time!"
