Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

Pointless?

Aoyagi Binguang smiled and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.

He said lightly: "I never do anything meaningless."

----

In the tower apartment building in the port area.

Rabbit, who had just finished dinner and washed the dishes and was lying on the sofa browsing the forum, suddenly sat up.

When Qing Liu Bingguang looked over, he quickly showed him the screen of his mobile phone and quickly sent a message in the group chat.

[Something happened to Hojo Toika! Some people said that the novels she wrote taught how to kill people, and many people on the Internet scolded her! ]

Qing Liu Bingguang looked at the insulting comments on the phone screen, raised an eyebrow and said, "The insults are really fierce."

The rabbit has mixed feelings.

He didn't like Hojo Toika, but when he saw her being cyber-bullied, he didn't gloat over her misfortune.

[…After being cyberbullied like this, her willpower will drop, right?] Rabbit suddenly thought of that value, [If it drops to 20, will she quit the game early?]

"not necessarily."

Aoyagi Binkou took out an apple he bought in the afternoon from the fruit basket next to him and took a bite. Unlike the rabbit, he was not panicked or surprised at all.

"She is [arrogant], not weak."

"Arrogant people may be afraid when facing accusations, but they will not feel that they are wrong, let alone reflect or change. Even if they apologize temporarily, it is only because they have to bow their heads due to reality, not because they really feel sorry."

The player with the ID "Raging" was eating an apple and commenting on it. He looked at the rabbit and said, "This time I bought a very sweet one. Do you want one?"

The rabbit shook his body to show that he didn't need it. He was in no mood to eat.

[…Even if she wasn’t devastated, after this incident, she wouldn’t be able to write about those cases anymore, right?]

Is "Detective Kyoko" going to be a failure?

"She can't write about the case anymore, so she can write about the main plot."

Qingliu Binguang finished eating the apple in just a few bites and threw it into the trash can next to him.

"Her fans have been looking forward to her writing about what organization Kyoko was harmed by, or to make a derivative story and write some extra chapters about popular characters."

As Rabbit listened to his words, he suddenly remembered what he heard when he was watching Baijiu's memory, about how Hojo Toika was chasing stars.

She has liked very controversial stars, and even if they were cursed by many people, she still stood firm. She hopes that idols will not care about the "crazy people" outside and pay more attention to the support of their loyal fans.

Now that the positions are reversed and she is standing in the shoes of the “cursed idol”, how will she deal with the wishes of her loyal readers?

"Or..."

Qingliu Binguang picked up another apple and tossed it around for a while.

"In the comments just now, someone questioned that she was teaching people to commit crimes, which was causing trouble for the police. I hope this book will be banned as soon as possible..." He said softly.

"Then she can create some excellent and positive police characters to show her support for the current Japanese police."

Chapter 62 New Mission in the Organization

Aoyagi Binkou's words made the rabbit fall silent.

He was taken to school in the past two weeks. Sometimes he would attend Aoyagi Akiko's class, but more often he would stay in an empty office, continuing to read the online serial version of Detective Kyoko on his mobile phone.

Although many of the characters have different names, he was able to quickly find out their prototypes in Conan based on the descriptions, and almost all of them have theirs.

If she really wants to create more outstanding (important) police characters, she will still use the original Conan characters as prototypes, right?

For example, Jinpei Matsuda, his friend Kenji Hagiwara who was killed in the bombing, and...

Toru Amuro who went undercover and his childhood friend.

Rabbit still doesn't know what the other undercover police officer is called.

——In Baijiu’s memory of that time, Rabbit only saw that he had short black hair and slightly upturned blue eyes. He didn’t hear anyone calling his name, and he didn’t know his code name in the organization.

Matsuda and Hagiwara are fine, they are just ordinary explosive ordnance disposal police officers, so it is not a big problem for them to be used as prototypes. Maybe the Metropolitan Police Department will be happy to see it, but the other two are undercover agents...

Rabbit remembered a joke he had seen online before entering the game, when Hojo Toika liked a certain male celebrity and then suddenly revealed his feelings.

Fans: Even if the whole world is against you, we will protect you!

Star: Why should I be against the world?

Fans: I’ll help you!

In this world, he remembered that Hojo Toika seemed to like Bourbon and the others, right? Could it be transformed into...

Fans: Even if you are exposed, I will save you!

Undercover: ...Why was I exposed?

Fan: Let me help you!

"..."

The rabbit felt an inexplicable chill suddenly running up his back.

Even though it was clearly not going to happen, he had a very bad feeling.

……No way?

The teammates were just saying it casually. Hojo Toika might not do this. She likes them so much that she wouldn't be so brainless.

Even if she wanted to do it, Bai Jiu was by her side.

Although he was [jealous], jealousy would make people wish to see others suffer misfortune... but his mission was to save several people of the same generation, so he shouldn't just watch her do that...

"Click."

Aoyagi Binguang bit the apple, making a crisp sound.

A leg cuff was fastened tightly around his ankle, covering a snake tattoo on it.

----

The Porsche smelled of cigarette smoke.

Aoyagi Binkou is not averse to smoking. He smokes a cigarette when he wants to relax or is in a good mood, but he doesn't like other people's secondhand smoke.

So he opened the car window next to him, and the night wind rushed in instantly, blowing up his loose brown-gray hair. This time he only moved the electronic handcuffs and did not move the hair tie over.

"Detective Kyoko", this is the biggest intersection between him and Hojo Toika besides games.

He wanted to prevent Hojo Toika from writing any more cases so that she could write the main storyline and see if she would write about other undercover agents.

It doesn't matter even if he doesn't write it. This time he pushed Eri Kisaki to take over the case as a lawyer for another purpose.

——He wanted to confirm whether wearing glasses was a preliminary method of defending against Hojo Toika's skills.

For this kind of ability that requires eye contact to activate, most people would consider whether eye decorations can provide defense. Aoyagi Akimitsu is no exception. The first thing he thought of was glasses.

Rabbit mentioned that Hojo Iris met a pregnant woman wearing glasses, and they had an argument over a pet dog on the road.

Hojo Toika can modify Hakubato's will at will, which shows that she is a person who abuses her ability. So why doesn't she just use her skills to solve the problem when she encounters trouble? Is it because she is too late? Or is she unable to do it?

Combined with what I heard today at the Metropolitan Police Department - the policeman with glasses thought that Baijiu was carrying a lion, while others thought it was a cat. It is not possible that the police could not even distinguish between a cat and a lion. It is very likely that their will has been modified.

Eri Kisaki wears glasses, and in the victim's family, the gambler is also a nearsighted person who wears glasses.

After finally finding someone to take advantage of, the victim's family who are in debt will inevitably demand high compensation, and Hojo Toika will not willingly be a sucker and will find ways to make them give up or lose the case.

Player skills can be effective on original characters. Gin can see Aoyagi Binkou's clone, and Rabbit's black mist can attack Tequila - although it failed to kill her.

If Hojo Toika fails to change the will of the plaintiff's lawyer Kisaki Eri, it will prove that glasses are a method of defense.

Alternatively, Hojo Tobiko could directly change the judge's will, and then Kisaki Eri would lose the case.

Rabbit swore that she was the heroine's mother and had never failed in the workplace. Now that she has failed in the lawsuit, does this count as an indirect change to the plot?

In just a few seconds, Aoyagi Binguang thought a lot, with a faint smile on his face.

Gin looked at him coldly through the rearview mirror in the car, and that cold look brought Aoyagi Binkou back to his senses.

"That kind of treatment is just the beginning. That girl is actually very interesting. If possible, I would like to control her actions..."

Aoyagi Binguang leaned his elbows on the car window, his tone helpless.

"Unfortunately, I'm not good at controlling others. I'm better at sending them straight to hell."

He is just a normal person, he doesn't know any powerful PUA methods, it's a piece of cake for him to destroy someone's family, and it's a piece of cake for him to do mental manipulation...

...Forget it, one should know one's own limitations and save one's energy.

Gin didn't comment on his words, and asked, "How was your game with Bourbon's teacher?"

"When I was suspected by the police yesterday, he was the only one who stood up to speak for me. He seemed really kind and friendly - I can finally get closer to him 'naturally'." When mentioning this, Aoyagi Binguang became happy.

Gin sneered and said coldly, "If you always use yourself as bait like this, be careful."

"This is my habit. Who made me used to be..."

As Qing Liu Bingguang said this, his eyes fell on the street outside. He saw a bank that was closed at this time. After driving a distance, a bar appeared in front of him.

He recognized it as one of the organization's bases in Beihu, where members sometimes met.

This time, it was Gin who took the initiative to propose the meeting.

The last time they met, he gave him two tasks other than finding undercover agents. The first one was just a small matter in the eyes of the organization, and the second one involved officials. Gin would not throw all of them to him and would conduct multiple confirmations.

Besides that, Gin also wanted him to do a small favor.

"That low-level member hid a large amount of counterfeit money in the vault of the bank we just mentioned, about 10 billion."

"Can't you just arrange for someone to rob the bank?"

Qingliu Binguang was puzzled. Why did he need help with such a small matter?

"This is a small mission. Try to avoid alerting the police."

Gin said this, and suddenly remembered the boldness of this guy beside him, and added: "Or, they won't notice that there are a lot of counterfeit money in the bank."
