Unsolved Case 2
After realizing the effect of Crime Point, Sirone and the others asked the sky.
“What is the point now?”
-Currently, your crime point is 91P.
Nade said.
“What we ate was 9P. Knowing this is helpful, but you also need to collect Crime Points. “If the eating problem is not solved, nothing can be done.”
Eden said.
“Let’s take a look at the village first. Because if it goes in orbit, it might come back. “Let’s figure out everything we can before clearing the mission.”
Sirone, who was wandering the streets and examining the village, could not make eye contact with passers-by.
‘We have to kill three people.’
Dorian was a small town and all the information could be gathered in just 30 minutes.
Arriving at the village entrance again, the group sat under a tree and exchanged opinions.
Eden opened her mouth.
“He seems like a real person.”
Iruki said.
“But not a real person. No, I think you’re missing the point, but the important thing is that they are resurrected.”
Nade agreed.
“okay. Is there any need to hesitate when the consequences of an action are reset? If you don’t solve the mission, your points will continue to drop. “You’re going to go to jail.”
Iruki looked back at Shirone.
“You decide, we are helping you anyway. “Whatever decision you make, I will follow it.”
“Melkidu will be a world where hidden codes apply. “You could say it’s a kind of simulation.”
The group listened.
“High Gear was similar. “At that time, players were even killing each other.”
Sirone shrugged his shoulders.
“But this time it feels different. “You keep killing defenseless civilians.”
Iruki said.
“Because it’s the killer’s rule. “It is definitely a system created with malicious intent.”
Nade stepped forward.
“is it? I’m interested. So, it’s not that I like killing people or anything like that in real life, but I played war games when I was young, right? If you cut it with a wooden stick, it will fall over in a big way. Actually, this place is a bit real. But who cares? “We also fought a world war.”
They had experienced the cruel situation to the point where they were sick of it.
“Let’s just do it. I don’t have time for this. Or I can go and grab someone and kill them now…
Two girls were giggling in the alley that Nade pointed to.
Nade watched the scene for a moment, then slowly lowered his hands and brought his legs together.
Iruki looked at me pitifully and said,
“If killing civilians isn’t your thing, how about catching a villain? It’s a place for murderers, but murderers don’t necessarily seek pleasure. There are also blind madmen who hate timid, cowardly, mercenary, and evil people. “If their perspectives were added to this world, wouldn’t there be a way to play for us?”
“Oh, that’s right!”
Nade suddenly raised his head.
“Mr. Curtis said the same thing. At first, he said he raised his points by catching villains. “They said it was less efficient, but now we’re in no position to decide.”
Sirone seemed uncomfortable.
“If a villain harms someone, I will risk my life and fight. But isn’t it a bit strange to go around looking for villains to kill someone?”
Nade argued.
“Hey, if you think that far, how do you clear the mission?”
Eden said.
“I also agree with Sirone’s thoughts. It is necessary to distinguish between the intention and the result of an action. What Sirone wants to say is that you shouldn’t take this for granted. yes?”
“huh. I know it’s best to kill the villain. However, the moment we rationalize, we too fall prey to Melkidu’s system. Then it doesn’t matter who you kill.”
Just like Curtis did.
“What should I do, Seina? I need to get it quickly. “Seina is a real human being.”
Sirone confessed his inner feelings.
“Actually… liberation can still be done now.”
Iruki asked.
“Like Andre’s Labyrinth?”
“huh. We will completely open the Immortal Function and restore the laws of this world. Those who reach the level of enlightenment can return to reality. It’s not even a criminal act. Then Melkidu will also be absorbed into the real world.”
Eden asked.
“Why can’t I do it?”
“If you want to return with the Immortal Function unlocked, you have to keep this world in your mind. The system for murderers, the demons in Mel Kidou, and…
Shirone’s eyes filled with power.
“Gyorgido.”
It meant that the demon of Yahweh that had been cut off for the sake of mankind must be accepted again.
“No one knows Giyorgi better than I do. Perhaps this is the core strategy of Yahweh’s assassination. Planting yam for me. Seina will be safe. “Because without her, there is no reason for me to liberate this world.”
Iruki stood up.
“good. Now that the decision has been made, shall we begin? “Let’s ask the villagers who the best villain is.”
1 hour later.
“Nonsense! “Did you really do that?”
“That’s right! That’s why I shouted like this! hey! “You just pooped your pants!”
“Kkkkal! “It’s so funny!”
The three remaining people watched from afar as Nade chatted with the girls.
“I’m really going to turn around.”
I talked to over 20 people, but far from being villains, they were all kind people.
“So I caught the thief… Sirone shouted.
“hey! Nade!”
Nade came to his senses and ran to his friends, waving to the girls.
He grabbed his head.
“It’s a big deal. I don’t feel like killing myself. “Isn’t this a great town to live in?”
Iruki said,
“It’s a small community. It is difficult for even minor incidents to occur in a place like this.
“The culprit will be identified immediately.”
Sirone rested his chin.
“Even so, Mr. Curtis wouldn’t have said something that broke trust from the beginning. I said it wasn’t efficient, but I didn’t say it was impossible. “Isn’t the reason I didn’t go into more detail because there are various inefficient patterns?”
“It could be so. Anyway, there are close to 200 people who act individually. Any variables may arise. The problem is we don’t know when.”
Eden said.
“We have no choice but to wait and see. Let’s change the order and get the weapon first. “You can’t do it with your bare hands, right?”
Even if it was a villain, I didn’t want to strangle him.
“Material.”
Iruki looked back at Shirone.
“How about making it with that ability? I think I can save some points. “Can you use a knife?”
“Of course it is possible…
but Sirone tried activating the material.
-There are not enough Crime Points needed to commit a crime. The current crime point is 91P.
“Not enough points. “I guess making a crime tool is also a crime.”
“…I’m annoyed, but I admit it. In the end, is there no choice but to buy or steal?”
Nade stepped forward.
“I’ll do it. wait here.”
He crossed the street looking left and right and entered the weapon shop across from him.
“We’ll have to bring something that’s easy to kill.”
After a while, the door opened and Nade came out holding a knife identical to the one the killer had used.
Shouting broke out in the store.
“You bastard! How dare you steal my things? You’re a thief! thief…!” Without even looking back, Nade pushed the bottom of the door hard with the sole of his foot and closed it.
bang!
As his friends watched, Nade crossed the street again and threw the knife.
“Have you seen Daedo’s skills?”
Iruki grabbed the handle of the spinning knife and looked at the blade.
“Is it best?”
“This is the only thing that’s short. “There was a strange glow, but that wasn’t enough.”
“So how much is it? “What’s the point now?” -Your current crime point is 76P.
“15P. It’s cheap too. If you played normally, you would kill 3 people by stabbing them 15 times. “It’s an appropriate level of difficulty under the title of murderer.”
Equipped with the tools to commit the crime, they entered the alley and waited for something to happen.
“This makes me look like a real criminal.” There was no mood for a joke, and Sirone bit his lip out of nervousness.
‘There’s a good chance. But it’s really inefficient. If there is no change within a day, I will have to reconsider this strategy.’ An hour later, as the sun was slowly setting, the bell at the entrance shook.
“attack! “It’s an attack!”
As Sirone and his group ran out of the alley, three thieves were holding swords.
‘This is it.’
The leader of the bandits shouted.
“This village is ours today! Bring three women and the most expensive alcohol! Then no one will die.”
A system voice was heard.
-A gang of thieves has joined the village.
“Those bastards…
While the residents were pale and exhausted, Sirone and his group were very flushed.
“Let’s go now.”
Just as I was about to take my steps, I heard a voice behind me.
“Wait a minute. “We come first.”
Sirone and the others turned around.
He was holding a knife identical to the one Nade stole, and there were a total of three people.
‘player. Are these people also accomplices?’
Judging by the fact that they were not detected when investigating the village, they were well-trained.
The tall man looked back at Shirone.
“You guys are players too, right? But we’ve been waiting for three days already. “Even if you’re a non-player, you can’t kill innocent civilians.”
I understood.
“Of course I know you guys thought the same thing. So I’m sorry. We’re chasing a felon. He’s a crazy guy who murdered 7 women. “Can’t you make a concession?”
There were three thieves, so only one team could clear the mission.
The man lowered his sleeve, revealing a tattoo of a hawk engraved in a circle.
‘Hawkeye.’
He was a civilian investigator active in the Kingdom of Stang.
“You know. Yes, we are an unofficial police force that takes care of matters that the kingdom cannot solve. Coincidentally, the person I’m chasing now is a powerful nobleman.”
He touched Sirone’s shoulder.
“Honestly, I didn’t know you guys would find the hidden event so quickly. Information about the bandits can only be found at the village chief’s house late at night. “It took us two full days to find out.”
Meeting Curtis was definitely a blessing, but what moved Sirone’s heart was something else.
‘If only I had waited three days.’ Even though he knew the system of this world, he did not choose the easy murder and persevered.
“yes. “We will yield.”
When Sirone stepped back with no strength, Nade comforted him by patting his back.
“It can’t be helped.”
O Ah
…huh.
The three investigators bowed their heads to Shiro and the others as if to express their gratitude and moved forward.
“Each person is in charge of one person.”
“It’s good.”
They were all holding daggers, and after a brief snowball fight, they kicked off the ground.
“die! “You thieves!” At the same time as the investigator rushed, the bandits bent their upper bodies and grabbed their long swords.
“Kkkkkk!”
Six people collided almost simultaneously, and immediately three investigators were hit with knives and fell to the ground.
“Aaaah!”
The eyes of the group watching widened.
“It’s so strong!”
Sirone was also surprised.
‘It’s definitely strong. But the investigators aren’t fighting properly either. Because of Crime Point…
The leader of the bandits shouted.
“Fuhahaha! “Things that don’t matter are being talked about!”
“Ugh!”
The security guard with his side cut retreated and the leader raised his long sword high.
“Where was the heart?”
“Tsk! Give it to me!”
Nade, who snatched Iruki’s dagger, jumped into the battlefield without any time to stop him.
