“Clue Twelve?
There are that many?”
Seeing Arataki Itto casually identify an object and obtain a clue, Ningguang carefully thought back.
Ever since they entered this space, every time they made an identification, they either obtained a clue or triggered a trap.
There had never been an empty result.
She had reason to believe that every object in this space contained something inside it.
Either a trap or a clue.
That was why she had even risked triggering a trap and made an identification herself.
As it turned out, she had been right.
She really had obtained a clue.
But Clue Twelve was a little troublesome.
With so many clues, how were the few of them supposed to piece everything together?
They might as well look at this clue first.
[His horns are exceptionally sharp.
They must not be touched carelessly!]
“Damn it!”
Ningguang couldn’t remain calm anymore.
They had obtained two clues.
One said he had no edges or corners.
The other said his horns were extremely sharp.
Are you messing with me?
So even the clues weren’t necessarily true!
Keqing also saw the clue.
She exchanged a glance with Ningguang, then turned around and pointed.
“I identify this as Fang Yue!”
She had pointed at a shield hanging on the wall, with two swords crossed behind it.
If they were talking about something sharp, then those two swords were undoubtedly the sharpest objects nearby.
[Identification incorrect.
Obtained Clue Seven.]
Seeing that it was another clue, Keqing breathed a sigh of relief.
She was still very afraid of identifying something that would trigger a trap.
[Throw him out, and he can roll a long way.]
This piece of information immediately brought everyone’s attention back to Clue Three.
“So he really is something round?”
Something that could roll a long way was naturally round.
The group swept their eyes across the room.
And immediately, their expressions turned strange.
Beneath a group of potted plants was a large pile of pebbles.
Arataki Itto had also noticed them by now.
Seeing everyone looking in that direction, he grinned.
“Hahaha!
I know where you’re hiding!”
As he spoke, he ran a hand through his hair and stylishly pointed at the potted plant.
“I identify this potted plant!”
Everyone rolled their eyes.
They had already noticed that Arataki Itto was watching what they were doing.
They hadn’t expected him to be this reckless.
We’re looking at the pebbles inside it, not the potted plant!
[Identification incorrect.
Trap activated.]
Finally!
It was a trap.
Upon hearing that it was a trap, Arataki Itto wasn’t afraid at all.
He took out a comb and ran it through his white hair before proudly declaring,
“Come on!
No matter what kind of trap it is, this great Itto will take it all!”
Inside the Intelligence Room.
[Fang Yue: Brave warrior, rest well.
The people will remember you.]
[Thoma: Is this what they call a reckless fool?]
[Yae Miko: @Kuki Shinobu, why don’t you come work as a shrine maiden at the shrine instead?
It’s a bit unfair for you to have a boss like that.]
[Kuki Shinobu: I’ll think about it!]
[Thoma: My goodness.
If the Arataki Gang loses Kuki Shinobu, wouldn’t they end up behind bars for the rest of their lives once they get inside?]
[Lisa: Video recording has been activated.
Please begin your performance.]
[Jean: Lisa, when did you become like this?]
[Lisa: What’s wrong with me?
Don’t think I didn’t notice that the video recording button on your screen is green.]
[Barbara: No way, Sis…
Has even Acting Grand Master Jean been infected?!]
[Thoma: Actually, my lady has video recording turned on too!]
[Kamisato Ayaka: Thoma, don’t make things up!
When did I?!]
Kamisato Ayaka glared at Thoma and hurriedly turned off the video recording button.
What was wrong with me just now?
Why had she gotten so excited the moment she saw someone trigger a trap?
While everyone was laughing at Arataki Itto’s misfortune, the system finally announced the trap.
[Basic Personality Reversal Trap: The player’s personality will be reversed for 10 minutes.]
The potted plant exploded, sending pebbles rolling all over the floor.
A cloud of white mist rushed directly into Arataki Itto’s body as he stood there with his chest puffed out.
“Personality reversal?”
Amber was confused.
“Can a person’s personality really be reversed?”
At that moment, the Arataki Itto who had just been fearless suddenly shuddered.
He nervously looked around.
Seeing Ningguang and the others staring at him without blinking, Arataki Itto jumped again.
He wrapped both arms around his chest and timidly said,
“What…
what are you…
trying to do?
Why are you…
looking at me like that?
It’s…
scary.”
He stammered so badly that he could barely speak properly.
“He seems to have become really timid.”
“Looks like it.
How about we scare him a little?”
The girls exchanged glances and simultaneously advanced toward him with threatening expressions.
Seeing them approach, Arataki Itto’s heart nearly jumped into his throat.
“What do you want…
I…
I’m the boss of the…
Arataki…
Arataki Gang…
I have…
lots of…
subordinates!”
The corners of Keqing’s mouth curled upward.
She suddenly drew her sword and stabbed it into the ground right beside Arataki Itto’s foot.
“Ah!!!
Murder!
Murder!
Someone help!
They’re going to kill me!”
He screamed hysterically, his voice even higher-pitched than a woman’s.
Amber grabbed him and pulled him over.
“Tell us!
What bad things did you actually do in Inazuma?
Why do you keep ending up in jail?”
“I…
I didn’t…
I just won some…
candy from…
children…”
“You took things from children and you still think you’re in the right?”
“I…
I didn’t take anything…
I won…
won them in a game.”
It seemed that although Arataki Itto was a bit of a troublemaker, he wasn’t actually a bad person.
He was simply rather childish.
Seeing that he wasn’t truly a bad person, the girls decided not to bully him anymore.
Just as they were about to leave, Ningguang suddenly thought of something.
She turned around and asked,
“Why do you always target Kujou Sara?”
“I don’t!”
At the mention of this, Arataki Itto suddenly became embarrassed.
The moment Ningguang saw his expression, she knew there was something going on.
She sternly shouted,
“Speak up!”
Arataki Itto shuddered again.
“I just…
thought she looked a lot like a little boy I knew when I was young.
I…
I…
I wanted to…
be…
be friends with her!”
“Oh~~~~~~~!”
The girls immediately revealed meaningful smiles.
