[Congratulations on defeating [Kaito Chicken] in Shame! ]
[Congratulations on obtaining the bronze achievement [Cold-blooded Pigeon Killer]! ]
[Reward: Mind-reading Card*3...]
"Jide is so fragile that he was tortured." Hojo Natsuki thought calmly, "Zero Cat didn't even break through when he played Frogman, and he endured being ridiculed by his peers offline. He is still too young."
As expected, the undercover employees have the best psychological quality. The overall level of the undercover employees is high. Except for not being frogs, everything is good.
After torturing Ji De, he waved his hand and let the dazed little pigeon go home.
Then follow Kurosawa Jin out of the park, get on the Porsche, and stop wearing the [Sad Frog Headgear].
It is currently March in the game, and there are still nearly two months before the new offline store opens. There is no rush to let new employees take up their posts. In a few days, let Ji De deliver two express deliveries for the toy factory to practice.
"Your headgear." Kurosawa Jin drove the car without looking around and asked suddenly, "Is there any special use for it?"
So sharp!
Obviously, the headgear had no effect on the Chicken Coffin Team and Kurosawa, but he still saw through the special feature of the headgear at a glance.
"Yes." Hojo Natsuki admitted openly, "It is a powerful prop. It can blur my features. Most people cannot associate the image of me with and without the hood. You are an exception."
Kurosawa Jin responded calmly.
He drove all the way back to his residence, got out of the car, pushed the door open with one hand, and took out a dazzling emerald from his pocket.
With a flick of his fingertips, the precious gem spun twice in the air and landed in Xia Shu's panicked palm.
"… This is 50 billion!" Hojo Natsuki immediately accused.
Kurosawa Jin: “Oh.”
Obviously, the other party didn't care about these material possessions, and walked upstairs with long legs. Hojo Natsuki only verbally condemned, but in fact, he treated the 50 billion yen very casually and put it in his pocket.
As soon as the door opened, Kurosawa Jin sat down at the desk again, acting like an emotionless home office machine.
And Hojo Natsuki also lay down on the sofa that was always occupied by him, feeling a little uncomfortable, physically uncomfortable.
I just drank red wine, and while waiting for the vodka to bring up the Kaito Chicken, it tasted sweet in my mouth, and I sipped it one sip after another unconsciously. I was very restrained, but I actually drank a lot.
He is allergic to alcohol, but he can drink a little due to social needs. However, when the intake exceeds the limit, he will be very painful and the symptoms will be severe.
Alcohol always takes a while to take effect. After being stuck in the car all the way, a subtle feeling of drunkenness is slowly fermenting.
The skin does not itch, but there is a swollen feeling in the throat.
Hojo Natsuki looked around without any hope, but found that there was no allergy medicine, so there was no need to ask Kurosawa.
He hesitated for a second between "going downstairs to buy medicine" and "exiting the game to get medicine", and decisively chose the latter. It only takes less than half a minute to enter and exit the game, but it takes 15 minutes to get to the nearest pharmacy.
Select [Exit Game].
Despite feeling extremely dizzy, he quickly found the allergy medicine in the medicine box. It was neatly arranged in a row and well stocked.
Hojo Natsuki took the medicine with warm water and returned to the game cabin.
The other world was turning from winter to spring, and Yokohama was about to enter summer. He was wearing thin clothes and soon found that there seemed to be something heavy in his pocket. He took it out casually and took a look.
—It’s the frog heart worth 50 billion.
Hojo Natsuki instantly became alert, and the dizziness was thrown away by him.
Before this, of course, he had tried to carry things to travel between the two worlds, but he failed every time, so he gave up. Every time he went there, he had to change into a set of clothes that suited the season in the game, which was very troublesome.
But this time, he actually brought a gem with him!
There was no notification on the phone, and Hojo Natsuki immediately went upstairs, rummaged through the drawers, found a blue gem, and put a box of allergy medicine in his pocket... He put a bunch of odds and ends on his body, put on a holographic helmet, and tried to take these things over.
[Do you want to enter the game? [Y/N
]
[YES]
The moment he regained consciousness, Hojo Natsuki reached for the sundries in his pocket, full of hope, but his hope was instantly dashed.
But no, nothing, except the cool emerald.
Why is it the only one that can be taken away
Is it that things can only be brought from this world to Yokohama? Or is there another influencing factor
Features of this gemstone…
1. It was a valuable item that he bought with his own money.
2. Mass less than 1kg
3. Small size
4. Targeted by Kaito Jid
When it comes to testing, Hojo Natsuki is a rigorous person, but there are obviously no treasures like gems in Kurosawa Jin's residence, so he can only find some lightweight items that meet standard 23 to try.
Every time he logged in and out of the game, it was like riding a roller coaster. It was like Hojo Natsuki had ridden three roller coasters in a row in the past three minutes. He hadn't recovered from the trance yet, and with the influence of alcohol, even walking steadily was extremely difficult.
Driven by curiosity, he walked around the house with light steps, looking for something.
A bullet.
A pink hairband in front of the bathroom mirror.
The silver lighter on the bedside table will pop out a clover when you open it.
what else
Hojo Natsuki, feeling extremely dizzy, searched for his target in the room, and then locked onto Kurosawa Jin who was sitting at the table. He walked slowly and lightly to his side, thought for a moment, and then turned sideways to touch the matchbox in his coat pocket.
The silver-haired man finally paid him some attention.
The other person had a cigarette between his lips and was about to take the matchbox, but Xia Shu took it away first.
Kurosawa Jin didn't say anything either. He bit the cigarette, turned half sideways, and looked down at him touching his hair.
His expression was free and easy, but the facial lines were clear and sharp.
Hojo Natsuki ran his fingers through his long hair from top to bottom, and after doing this several times, he finally smoothed down a few strands of silver hair.
"What are you doing?" Kurosawa asked.
"I just went back." Hojo Natsuki explained casually, "I think I can bring something back. I'm not sure what it is, but I just brought back the emerald."
He held those strands of silver hair, looking a little embarrassed, not knowing where to put them.
After a few seconds, he came up with an idea and chose to wrap them around his fingers, tying a knot every few turns. Kurosawa's hair was really long, and a few strands were tangled into light silver rings, falling on the base of Hojo Natsuki's fingers, a shallow circle that was barely visible.
"Like a ring." He turned his palm and smiled for no reason.
Kurosawa Jin turned sideways, put his arm around his waist, and let him sit on his lap.
The other party grabbed Xia Shu's right hand with the 'ring' on it, and inserted his sharply defined fingers into his fingers, slowly and irresistibly, like a silent invasion.
He stared at Hojo Natsuki's face for a while, and a low laugh with unclear meaning escaped from his throat: "You're drunk already."
It carries the same irony as always, but its low tone makes it seem inexplicably charming.
"I'm not drunk." Hojo Natsuki tried to argue, "It's just that my face gets red easily. It's like this when I drink a little."
"Yeah." Kurosawa Jin responded without comment.
His other hand rested on Xia Shu's shoulder blade and slowly slid down along the slightly raised spine.
Hojo Natsuki shuddered uncomfortably: "…Itchy."
The emerald in the shallow pocket fell out and hit the ground with a very light crisp sound. It rolled twice on the ground and stopped helplessly.
Kurosawa saw the gem and looked away.
"I can bring something back." He repeated what he had just said.
Kurosawa Jin's eyes swept over the things Natsuki put on the table. They were all small pieces, bullets, hair ties, lighters... and the silver hair wrapped around his fingers. He raised his eyebrows slightly, turned Hojo Natsuki's chin, and asked, "Why are you taking these junk?"
Rubbish?"
"It's not garbage. I'm testing what conditions the items need to meet." Xia Shu was dissatisfied and explained his testing ideas, "Maybe in terms of the value of the goods and the quality of the items..."
He explained in a serious tone, but saw Kurosawa Jin with his eyes downcast, staring at him leisurely, his brows unrestrained and his expression indifferent.
Hojo Natsuki read something from this expression and suddenly stopped talking.
"Bring something", "garbage".
meaning is…
After a moment, he asked tentatively: "...Take you there?"
Kurosawa Jin remained noncommittal.
He nodded: "Then give it a try."
Hojo Natsuki put all the "garbage" that Kurosawa called into his pocket, put his arm around his shoulders, and rested his chin on his neck.
This tight hug allowed him to more clearly feel the other person's muscular outlines beneath his clothes.
He selected the [Exit Game] button floating in the air, and after a second or two, he appeared in the holographic cabin at home again.
He was still wearing his real-life clothes, and in the pocket of his thin coat was a tablet of medicine and a sapphire... the things he had been planning to take with him, but didn't.
It failed, the gem fell to the ground, and this time nothing was brought back.
Even the silver hair wrapped around his fingers was gone.
As expected.
But still a little disappointed.
Hojo Natsuki closed his eyes and entered the game again.
These two "roller coasters" with an interval of only a dozen seconds shook his brain into a paste. He could not see anything clearly, objects were overlapped with double images, and everything he saw was covered with a snowy TV-like filter.
“… Failed.” He hooked his arm around Kurosawa Jin’s shoulder, sighing and complaining in a daze.
The other person hummed, raised his hand and stroked a small piece of skin on the back of his neck, not surprised.
"… Well."
Hojo Natsuki leaned on his shoulder and sighed, subtly depressed.
In the blink of an eye, he suddenly caught a flash of inspiration and forced himself to think, "Could it be... Kaito Kidd?"
He suddenly stood up and walked towards the sofa in the living room, placing his cell phone on the coffee table.
I felt dizzy and could hardly stand. Like a spinning top, I walked to the sofa in a daze and lay down, unable to get up.
Pick up your phone and open the game.
Ji De agreed to work for him, the contract was established, and he became [Joined] and automatically joined the organization's employee list. Its various values were exceptionally outstanding, and the salary column clearly showed 0. It was another free high-quality labor force, which made the capitalist boss who was not a human being very satisfied.
As the boss, Hojo Natsuki can send messages to any member of the organization. The messages sent will be presented to the other party in the form of emails or text messages.
[N]：.
[Jide]: Who are you
[N]：Boss
[Jide]: ...Is the express delivery going to be delivered today
[N]: I have a task for you.
Hojo Natsuki tried to organize his words. He guessed that the target targeted by Kaito Jide could be brought back to Yokohama by him.
[N]: Would you steal someone
[Jide]：
[Jide]: I am a Phantom Thief! Not Mr. XX next door! !
[N]: That’s not what I meant.
He was just about to type an explanation to Ji De who had the wrong idea, but when he looked up, he saw Kurosawa Jin standing in front of him, his arms folded, watching him playing with his phone with interest.
"Who are you chatting with?" the other party asked calmly.
But this is a complete illusion, and answering it wrong is very dangerous.
"It's not a chat." Hojo Natsuki said, "It's a game. I give instructions to the members of the organization through the game. I was just giving a task to Kaito Kidd."
Kurosawa Jin nodded, stretched out his hand, and said in a calm and casual tone: "Give it here."
Hojo Natsuki: “…”
Can not be done.
It's not that he can't see the chat content, but the avatar in Jide's avatar frame is really a pigeon, and the background is still the list of members of the Frog Organization, one by one.
All the avatars are little frogs.
With the other party's keen sense, he will definitely find out that he is... Qinwa.
Without any buffer, I suddenly learned that I was a mobile pet, and a coffin-faced little frog with a soft belly.
Kurosawa formation.
I will definitely be very angry.
As for the consequences... I can't imagine what will happen. But it must be something he doesn't want to see.
Thinking of this possibility, a chill suddenly crept up his spine. Hojo Natsuki was very embarrassed and did not answer.
But when he raised his head, he was met with the other person's increasingly cold gaze, and those green eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.
Hojo Natsuki decided to cheat: "I can't show you this."
Kurosawa looked him down carefully and replied without any emotion: "...Is that so."
The short syllables and indifferent tone were chilling. His cold and low ending tone instantly dragged Hojo Natsuki back to the day when he was playing with roses in the car.
It seemed that another rainstorm was coming.
A bad feeling.
The other party had not yet withdrawn his hand, but under some kind of intuitive sense of crisis, Hojo Natsuki took a step ahead of him, leaned forward, raised his chin slightly, and rested his chin on Kurosawa Jin's palm.
He looked up, raised his eyes and stared at the other person with a serious expression.
"Really." Hojo Natsuki rubbed his palm with his chin and sent him a soft and sincere puppy dog look, "I didn't mean to hide it from you."
