Chapter 10 - Troublemaker (3)

Inside the training ground, Furuya Rei was looking at the teacher and asked, "Teacher, is such an emergency mission so common?"

"Normally no," the teacher replied and then he looked at Furuya Rei earnestly. "But you have to know that sometimes, plans can't keep up with the changes. I don't know who she is, but since she could show such acting, she might have been fighting on the frontline for a long time."

"Is it obvious?" Furuya Rei asked with a frown.

"There are differences between people who have killed someone and people who haven't… You will understand Furuya."

Furuya Rei nodded.

He's still a newcomer at this time, but he will learn.

Aikawa Saki didn't know what kind of image she had in front of Furuya Rei, but she felt a bit embarrassed. She was actually not good at communicating, so she didn't speak more than necessary.

After rubbing her face, she went to prepare for everything.

Once it was ready, Aikawa Saki departed to the destination and looked at the eye catching Porsche car outside the building.

'Hmm, the rooftop?'

Aikawa Saki walked upstairs calmly and saw Gin was staying there with a sniper rifle ready. She herself also carried a sniper rifle on her back inside a guitar case. 

"You're here." Gin sneered.

"Since you called me, how could I not come?" Aikawa Saki asked back calmly and then walked straight to the edge. She thought about the names of the few criminals and their itinerary that she forced herself to memorize. "You want to kill Hanayoshi?"

Because that person was located 700 yards away from here inside a hotel.

"Heh, he has been targeted by the police," Gin said indifferently. "See who's faster."

Aikawa Saki's fingers clenched before she relaxed it and nodded calmly. She set up the sniper rifle while looking at the target in the distance and her brain was working fast.

Heart but not quite…

'Commander, I hope you're ready.'

The two people set up their sniper rifle and before long, the sound could be heard.

Bang!

The person fell down and his partner, who was making out with him, screamed on top of her lungs. The guards immediately came forward to check, but found that he was bleeding on his heart, which scared them to no end.

"You're fast…"

Swish!

Facing the sudden attack from Gin, Aikawa Saki swiftly raised her hand to block and nearly cursed out loud.

So heavy!

Her combat power has been raised to 6, but it was definitely far from enough to face Gin directly.

Swish!

Aikawa Saki didn't hesitate and took out the hand grenade that she had prepared.

Bang!

She grabbed her sniper rifle and escaped to the side while Gin had avoided the explosion. 

"Interesting." Gin let out a faint laugh as he looked at the woman who was staring in his direction warily. "Join us."

"Will you pay me?" Aikawa Saki asked, her tone was cold.

This was her personality that she agreed on with the director. Make her a money loving person, so that there would be a good reason for the killing that she had done and the bounty that she took.

"Of course."

"Then I'll be delighted."

After her first mission that made Aikawa Saki want to vomit, she directly used the time dungeon fast forwarding feature.

Even though she had prepared herself mentally…

It was still sickening when she had to kill the other party personally. Not to mention, she might also have to torture other people in the future.

It's better to skip the time…

Uhm, let's jump to October year XXXX, a month before Matsuda Jinpei's death.

Aikawa Saki closed her eyes and as time passed, memories like movies played in her mind. It could still be changed through props of the game, but changing the past wouldn't be easy as it costs 2 million reputation points for each change. And this change was basically only one small thing. If they wanted to travel to the past, the cost was 10 times as much. 

Perhaps, the greatest bug is the time dungeon.

But if they were not careful enough, it was still possible for them to die.

Tsuki operated in Japan for half a year before receiving the codename and was sent abroad. Over here, she worked well and secretly delivered the information, sabotaging the organization's operation from time to time.

Yet, her status in the organization remained stable and even increased with the passage of time. 

Now, Aikawa Saki was on her way back to Japan for a 'vacation' on the surface while actually doing a mission. Gin was being called to the US not long ago, so the Boss wanted someone to replace him temporarily.

Because of her performance, she was selected. 

When Aikawa Saki opened her eyes again, she was already on the plane back to Japan. Looking at her phone, it was now October 31 and there's still a week's time before Matsuda Jinpei's death. 

'Hmm, let me see if there's any new barrage.'

Aikawa Saki thought that since someone purposely saved Hagiwara Kenji, though the scene was a bit hard for the eyes to see, there might be others who were going to save Matsuda Jinpei through the same method.

…If someone else used that kind of method to save Morofushi Hiromitsu, she would question their intelligence, though.

'So when Furuya Rei and Morofushi Hiromitsu start to make their names, I don't even have any chance to even show my face…' Aikawa Saki sighed deeply.

She looked at the barrage quietly. 

Anyway, she would be staying on this damn plane for a few more hours. 

[Ai is really cute!]

[Too bad that Akemi couldn't be saved…. But everything seems to be going normal now.]

[Hey, did you see Ran's flashback not long ago? There are more FBI agents around Akai Shuichi. Will we get to see more interesting FBI agents?]

[I'm more interested in the new students in Teitan High School. He appeared even earlier than Eisuke Hondo and Masumi Sera. Whose brother or sister is this?]

[Oh, oh, oh, Ai reacted to that male student?]

[For real? What's his name?]

[Himori Karuta… pfft, his name sounds like Karuta cards. Are you sure it's not a pseudonym?]

[Hahaha.]

[Himori is following Conan.]

[Danger! Conan, danger!]

[Is he black party?]

[I bet he's black! There are already too many people from the red party that it's not interesting anymore]

[Upstairs, you just want to see Conan being persecuted, aren't you?]

[Ai is scared and Conan is wary~]

[Now I'm interested in this Himori Karuta.]

[Handsome brother, tell us more about you!]

Aikawa Saki looked at the barrage and sighed. 

She could guess that Himori Karuta should be another player and his current identity is a high school student.

Aikawa Saki: "..." Why do I suddenly feel envious?

Then again, being a student doesn't mean that he will be safe. 

Who knows when Conan's death halo will strike?

And before she landed, she watched as the barrage started from liking Himori Karuta to hate him to death.

But in this controversy, it was obvious that many people hated him. Seeing so many things happening in such a short period of time made Aikawa Saki's expression turn solemn.

It seemed that she shouldn't spend too much time in the time dungeon. 

If she missed too many things, she might not have enough time to gather enough popularity points.

'Another method to earn popularity points would be to use the character's death and change it… But I can't possibly appear directly and expose my identity.'

If it's confirmed that she's a red party from the beginning…

She was sure that her popularity wouldn't be high.

Swaying between black and red~.

Aikawa Saki's eyes flickered.

It seemed that she had a more complete plan to deal with her popularity points. 

But for now, she still reads the barrage.
