The scenario was based on the 'famous detective' in Comic Shuwa, so if there was a similarity, it was not a coincidence.
…
After chatting for a few minutes, they decided to do a normal team dungeon together as a warm-up.
Then, Xiao Tan transferred the party leader's authority to Brother Jue and went to the storage room to prepare for the scenario.
Feng Bujue used this time to put the Echo Armor into the storage before returning to the log-in lobby.
After they were ready, Brother Jue clicked on the touch screen and joined the queue.
"Feng Bujue, Level 49
"Wang Tanzhi, Level 46
"Please select the game mode that your team will join.
"You have selected Team Survival Mode (Normal), please confirm.
"Confirmed. The number of team members has been randomized: Two.
"Your team has joined the queue.
"Matching complete. Coordinating nerve connection. Generating scenario …
"Downloading, please wait a moment."
At that point, Brother Jue and Xiao Tan lost control of their bodies and entered a first-person perspective.
"Welcome to Thriller Paradise, huff huff huff …" Two seconds later, a wretched male voice said, and after that, he chuckled three times like he was acting cute.
[Download complete. You are currently in Team Survival Mode (Normal).]
"A scenario introduction is provided in this mode, and there is a chance of triggering hidden side quests and special world-building.
"Reward for clearing the scenario: Randomly draw a learnable skill card.
"Playing the scenario introduction soon. The game will start immediately after that."
"Hmm … This looks like a normal scenario," Feng Bujue said. "It all depends on the reward for clearing the scenario."
The scenario had just started, and he was already considering what he would get after clearing the scenario. Obviously, for Brother Jue, clearing a normal team dungeon … was a piece of cake.
"There is a demon living in the courtyard.
"All the companions that I can rely on are dead."
"Hey … What's going on …" Before the opening cinematic came out, two lines of lyrics sung in Japanese sounded in his ears. Moreover, the melody and content of the song seemed familiar. This gave Feng Bujue an ominous feeling.
[Dedicating my youth to volleyball.]
[But!]
[Everyone looks like they're dead!]
"I think I know what song this is …" Feng Bujue said, "Isn't this the OP of the first season of Riwa (Funny Manga Riwa is a manga published by Yukinosuke Sasada in Shueisha's Monthly Shōnen Jump in January 2000. It's famous for its nonsensical plot and fast paced) …"
[You and I …]
[Not friends.]
[My friend. He's your friend.]
[That's the general idea ~]
[So, don't get carried away!]
"They even changed the last line …" Brother Jue mumbled. "Hmm … Of course, that's not the main point. The main point is … what kind of joke is this?"
Before he could recover from the song, the opening cinematic officially began to play.
And the style of this CG … reminded him of another script (or sandbox) that he had passed before.
"Compared to South Park … this is a different kind of novelty, isn't it?" Feng Bujue looked at the out-of-shape drawing and commented coldly. "Compared to the original One Punch Man … this is about as good as it is …"
"A famous detective?" A question that came out of nowhere opened the introduction.
[Hi ~] In the next second, a pink, anthropomorphic rabbit appeared on the screen (it had hands, feet, and clothes, but its palms and head still retained the characteristics of an animal). Wearing a green sleeveless top, a hot pink skirt and yellow shoes, she stood on a light green lawn and waved to the camera. Behind her was a background that looked like a child's graffiti — houses, trees, mountains that were obviously disproportionate to the scale of the character … and the blue sky and white clouds that looked like a picture.
[Bunny Mei-chan from Zoological Elementary School's Fourth Grade Class 1 (The "Chan" here is a nickname added after a female's name in Japanese. When addressing a male, she would usually use "Ku" or "San". It may be used many times in this script, so it's noted here) is a famous detective. Once something happens, he will show off his skills with his proud reasoning. As long as he encounters a crime … whether it's true or not, he will report it to the police. He's a cold-hearted guy.]
"It's here … It's here …" Feng Bujue's soul of ridicule was instantly awakened. "When I heard the theme song, I was wondering what kind of setting it would be … So, it's an animal elementary school … I can already foresee the level of pain in the balls in this scenario. Perhaps it's the legendary 'egg-cracking' level …"
The narration continued, leaving aside the question of what 'egg-cracking' level Feng Bujue was talking about.
"Today is the first day of the new semester.
"The first thing Mr. Panda announced after he walked up to the podium was that there would be a transfer student moving to Year 4 Class 1."
Following the announcement, the cinematic cut to the classroom. It was a normal elementary school classroom, and it was filled with anthropomorphic animals like cats, dogs, pigs, and elephants. It did not look out of place …
"Ah … The transfer student is Aiko The Penguin from South Pole Elementary School, right?" Feng Bujue looked at the screen and said.
Based on his memory of the animation, Brother Jue came up with the plot.
But … he had miscalculated.
"There are two transfer students this time."
"Huh?" Feng Bujue was startled. "Two? Wait a minute … Could it be … "
"They are Mao Tarō and Jin Izumi Sun Tarō."
"God …" Feng Bujue did not believe in God, so he used the name of God as an interjection.
At this point, an anthropomorphic cat and an anthropomorphic falcon walked into the classroom one after another.
"Students, these are Mao Tarō and Sun Tarō who transferred from South Pole Elementary School. Please get along well from now on," Mr. Panda said.
"Why is it that before the scenario has even started … I already want to f * cking quit …" Due to too many complaints, Feng Bujue's balls started to hurt. Even though he had not regained control of his body, so he could not feel any pain at all.
"I am Mao Tarō. My specialty is deduction. I was known as the famous detective at my previous school."
"I am Sun Tarō, a member of the Detective Club. I am Mao Tarō's partner."
"The two transfer students made a very bold self-introduction, and the whole class turned to look at them curiously."
"However, at that moment, from the last row of the classroom, a sharp gaze was trained on them, and the owner of that gaze was Tu Mei."
"They … they said they are the detectives! This is not good! Tu Mei Chan! " Xiong Ji, who sat to Tu Mei's right, widened his eyes. He whispered to Tu Mei, "A strong opponent has arrived! And there are two of them this time! This is even worse than when Aiko The Penguin transferred here! "
"What the … Are you still in school?" When the camera moved to Xiong Ji, even Feng Bujue was shocked. "The law in your universe is a bit too lax … You were arrested so many times, but you were still able to get out …"
(Note: In the related stories of 'Detective Tu Mei', all the criminals involved were Xiong Ji. Xiong Ji's crimes were very obvious, and he confessed every time without being pressed. The ending of every story was the arrest of Xiong Ji.)
"This is very interesting." Tu Mei smiled. "I wish to see their deduction ability."
At this point, the introductory cinematic stopped. Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi regained their mobility in one second. However, the characters that they controlled were not Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi but Mao Tarō and Sun Tarō.
"Main quest has been triggered."
This time, the main quest was straightforward. It refreshed right after the introductory cinematic. Brother Bujue immediately opened the quest tab to take a look, and then … he was completely shocked.
"Complete the scenario with thirty-three chapters."
"F … ck … f * ck?" This was Feng Bujue's first reaction.
At that moment, the system's voice rang in his and Xiao Tan's ears again.
"The pressure of full attendance, the exhaustion of the manuscripts.
The twist of life, the twist of inspiration.
On this day, the legendary detective sealed in the darkness has awakened once more …
He and his assistant will write a brand new legend.]
