Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

As an undercover agent with other goals, Aoyagi Binguang did not keep his identity secret for fear of being known by others. Instead, he would lift a corner from time to time, then quickly cover it up, and then look at those people with a subtle and expectant attitude.

I'm a bad guy, can you find me?

I am the enemy, can you catch me?

[…That’s why my father always says that you are a little naughty.]

When Anatoly said this, Artemis at that time and Aoyagi Akimitsu now both shrugged their lips.

【…】

[…Sorry, are you angry? As expected, whenever you mention your father, you can’t control your temper.]

The sound in my memory is as soft as a sigh.

[This won’t work, Artemis... If you want to take revenge on him, you must first learn to control your anger towards him. You can’t show this anger openly... You must not...]

"........."

In reality, Aoyagi Akimitsu closed his eyes.

In fact, before he became "Aoyagi Akimitsu", when he was just Artemis and "Aniseite", he had always been a person who could not control his temper.

When he encounters something he is not good at, he thinks too much, looks ahead and behind, and is too cautious, but misses the initiative, so he always loses when playing chess.

He corrected this.

When he was offended, he always wanted to retaliate immediately, without planning before taking action, which easily led to him backfiring on the spot. That was why he was burned by a cigarette and had a second snake branded on his body.

He corrected this as well.

When faced with something he hates, he will reveal malice and anger, and can't even pretend to be calm on the surface.

He tried to correct this, but couldn't.

Not only can I not change it, but even when I see something similar or related, anger will burst out from the bottom of my heart from time to time.

As a result, he is prejudiced against all "fathers". When he had to choose a suitable target to lead the Public Security Bureau out a year ago, he directly picked Kuroki, a single father who betrayed himself to join the organization for his daughter;

This is also true of the case involving President Kawai.

Pisco... or to be more precise, the organization, helped President Kawai back then for two reasons. One was that they valued his talent, and the other was that they wanted to make the company bigger and stronger as the leader in Japanese software development so as to attract more talents to join.

Since President Kawai was a straightforward person, even though Pisco had done him a favor, he did not win him over directly at that time, but guided him slowly and step by step.

Until a kidnapping happened.

President Kawai did not abandon his wife after he became rich, and after her early death, he treated her son as his dearest child. His competitors knew this, so they kidnapped the young Kawai Koichi.

This kidnapping has nothing to do with the organization, but after learning about it, they thought it was a good opportunity, so Pisco completely extended an olive branch - do you want to call the police and wait for the police to rescue you slowly; or hand it over to a larger underworld force to resolve it as quickly as possible?

President Kawai, who was worried about his son, agreed to the latter and completely joined the organization.

President Kawai does not need to carry out assassinations like Pisco did, he only needs to provide funds and software talents. He has done well in recent years, and both BOSS and Rum are optimistic about him. His company is getting stronger and stronger. This is a mutually beneficial cooperation that is very comfortable for both parties.

Members of such an organization should have been able to live in peace until death, but something happened not long ago that made the boss want to get rid of him.

——President Kawai does not want his son to join the organization, and he is worried that he will be retaliated against for the many sins he has committed over the years, so he wants to quit the organization.

The task of eradication was naturally given to Gin, and Gin knew his recent schedule and knew that he would happen to visit a wealthy American who lived on the same floor as the president. When he asked that day, he was given the task.

When Aoyagi Akimichi first received the task, he was still thinking about what to do. It was not until the next day when [Gluttony] was accidentally hospitalized that he finally had an inspiration.

Koichi Kawai was targeted by a nearby burglar and murderer, and because his father had not dared to contact the police in the past (to avoid misunderstandings from the organization), and he also did not like to find the police, so he did not call the police at all.

At first, Aoyagi Akimichi wanted to wait for the murderer to kill Kawai Koichi. He would film the process at close range to stimulate the president who was hospitalized due to heart problems, causing him to die of natural causes.

But after seeing how the father and son got along that day, and the real reason why President Kawai wanted to rebel against the organization, Aoyagi Akimitsu changed his mind.

——He wanted to train this son into a tool for him to accomplish his mission. He wanted to see a son who was once carefully protected by his father kill his father with his own hands.

Qingliu Binguang hated them. He himself didn't know where such malice came from, and why the anger burned so intensely that it made him give up the convenient method and go through such a big detour.

He thought so and did so. This was his willfulness.

only……

Thinking of this, Aoyagi Binguang sighed softly.

He made another mistake.

He thought it would be troublesome, and that creating financial pressure (making the landlord short of money and anxious to collect rent + the high-end restaurant taking away all the remaining savings), and sowing discord between the restaurant and the bar twice (the large inheritance might change the owner), was simply not enough...but the next day, he received news of the president's death.

It’s a pity that it wasn’t Kawai Koichi who killed him personally. Instead, he instigated the robber who wanted to silence him.

[People are the most difficult to treat as chess pieces. They have emotions and intelligence... not necessarily wisdom, but they definitely have their own selfish desires. If you want to control them, you must be prepared to fail at any time.]

The result was correct, but the process was totally different from what was expected... Anatoly was right.

Qing Liu Bingguang quickly deleted all the information about the two people and completely destroyed them. He sat there for a while, still unable to figure it out.

He couldn't wait to eliminate someone after being picked twice... Although this was his goal, he still wanted to ask, isn't this too hasty?

Is the mentality really so unhealthy? Could it be that Kawai Koichi or the robber was stimulated by other factors?

As Aoyagi Binkou thought about it, he looked at the date and found that several days had passed since he booked the third flight to Japan. He picked up his phone and sent an email to Gin again.

Then he looked at the computer again, clicked on the document to call up a new file - a signed house rental agreement, confirmed the address, and opened the system's teammate group chat.

[Rage: If you leave the hotel, you can go here. I have already rented a house.]

----

The main character's biggest weakness is his [Rage]

Revenge on someone of higher status should be kept low-key and tolerant, so as not to be discovered and eliminated first... In the end, everyone can see that he is his father's avenger.

Chapter 270 The Fifth Night of the Famous Writer's Gluttony of Rice Krispies

"The serial home robbery and murder cases at Beihua 10-chome have been solved. The suspect was arrested the evening before yesterday. According to detective Maori Kogoro's reasoning, the family of the victim in the sixth case is suspected of instigation..."

"An explosion occurred at Nanyang University. A professor was killed. The rest of the injured have been sent to..."

"The first 'Twilight of Dynasties' art exhibition will open at the Suzuki Museum of Art, featuring exotic treasures from the last dynasties of various countries, and the governor of Osaka Prefecture will attend the opening ceremony..."

On the first floor of the Shinmika Hotel, Kazuya Miwa walked out of the hotel with his hands in his pockets, listening to the familiar sound of TV news reports.

It was already dark outside.

He turned and walked towards Rice Flower Commercial Street, avoiding the alley where he had the accident before, entered a fast food restaurant opposite the shopping mall, ordered a spicy hamburger meal with chicken wings, and sat by the window.

The view outside the window was peaceful, with pedestrians hurrying to and fro on the streets, and billboards and large screens outside shopping malls casting a layer of light and shadow on them.

Sanlun Kazuya bit his teeth and sipped Coke through a straw. The soda in this fast food restaurant did not have enough carbonation, so drinking it just satisfied his craving, which was better than nothing.

As he was about to open the burger box, his phone vibrated slightly.

[Rage: If you leave the hotel, you can go here. I have already rented a house.]

Above are the words sent by teammates, and the pictures are attached below.

Miwa Kazuya looked at the document above, paying special attention to the date and signature on the document.

The date was a year ago, and the signature was not his current pseudonym, but more like a female name - Lu Renyue Yumei.

【Gluttony: Who is this? 】

[Angry: Your grandmother. According to the setting, she was widowed at an early age, and her son settled in the United States and married another Japanese woman and had children. She moved to Tokyo from the countryside not long ago, and her grandson happened to have nowhere to stay in Japan, so she took him in. ]

【Gluttony: …】

[Gluttony: Excuse me, is this Yue Yumei Grandma... real? ]

Miwa Kazuya knew very well that Aoyagi Akiko was sometimes quite lazy and it was impossible for him to go out of his way to make his teammates' personalities more complete.

【Rage: It was my clone pretending to be me.】

"........."

Out of a strong survival instinct, Miwa Kazuya's words "Are you a cross-dresser like Kaito?" were stuck in his throat.

【Angry: Don't worry, I won't have much contact with you normally, my clone has other work. 】

Miwa Kazuya frowned.

In the public's perception, children, pregnant women and the elderly are vulnerable groups who need help and protection, so it is easier for people to let down their guard.

What was Aoyagi Akiko planning to do by disguising himself as a widowed old lady with grandchildren instead of being a normal adult male?

Sanlun Heya had a bad feeling and didn't know how to reply for a moment. He put down his phone for a moment and looked out the window.

The screen outside the shopping mall opposite was also broadcasting recent crime news, which was not the same channel as the one on the first floor of the hotel. The host was introducing the burglary.

Miwa Kazuya saw a photo of President Kawai, whom he had met a few times. The news anchor introduced his life and then talked about his tragedy.

"His only son admitted that he deliberately revealed his father's whereabouts to the prisoner... Mr. Pingdong, will such an act be brought to justice?"

The middle-aged man with curly hair and a goatee next to the anchor clasped his hands and supported his chin, and a ray of white light reflected on the round lenses.

"It's very difficult." The criminologist said sarcastically, "If it were someone else, with relatives willing to appeal again and again, plus public opinion fueling the flames, there might still be hope... But this time it happened to be his only relative who did it."

"No one in the world can help him get justice."

After seeing the subtitles clearly, Miwa Kazuya fell silent.

He slowly lowered his head, looked at the hamburger packaging, and remembered the rainy day when he ordered takeout.

……

"Good afternoon, have you had lunch?"

Some foreigners complained that flower growers always like to ask if someone has eaten when greeting them. Sanlun and Ye traveled through time together, and this habit is still engraved in their bones.

President Kawai was stunned by this greeting, shook his head and said, "I just came back from a walk and haven't eaten yet. How are you?"

"I ordered takeout and was just about to go downstairs to get it." replied Kazuya Miwa.

Upon hearing this, President Kawai hurried out of the elevator. Miwa Kazuya walked in, and when he pressed the down button, the other party suddenly spoke:

"Excuse me, Mr. Lu Ren, could you please come to my ward later?"

The president, who was about the same age as his father, hesitated and asked, "I have something to ask of you."

Miwa Kazuya was puzzled, but he still nodded: "Okay."
