Justice's Backstab
"First the Assassin's Robe, then the hidden blade, my luck is terrible..."
Fujino looked at the hidden blade in his hand, examined it for a moment, and then sighed softly, "Could it be that they'll introduce an assassin class or some kind of assassination order in the future?"
He is currently unsure what career path he will be able to pursue in the future.
Bodyguards, chefs, fighters, swordsmen... and just now there seemed to be a CEO and a pianist.
The pattern is completely unpredictable.
If he keeps drawing, one day he might actually draw the Assassin class.
If the assassin class exists, then shouldn't there be a gunslinger class as well?
Their professional skills are probably directly derived from American Iaijutsu.
However, if the assassin profession really exists, to be honest, Fujino is still a little conflicted.
After all, most of the tasks assigned by the system are related to a specific profession.
The assassin profession is definitely about missions involving killing.
To be honest, Fujino, whose mind had not yet been completely corrupted, did not want to easily engage in murderous acts.
He's a normal person, even though he has a system and has seen dead people.
But if it were really up to him to kill someone who had absolutely no connection to his interests, he really wouldn't want to do it.
Of course, not killing is simply because they don't want to kill and dislike the idea of dirtying their hands.
If there were any deep-seated hatred, or even if his life was threatened, or if it caused him any unavoidable trouble, he would still be happy to personally kill one or two people and get his hands dirty to resolve the problem.
If it involves interests...
In short, you'll have to pay extra.
When it comes to paying more money, you also need to figure out who the other party is...
But thinking about it so much now is actually pointless.
He hasn't unlocked the Assassin class yet.
It seems that the Alcohol Company has also given up on assassinating him.
The murder is temporarily none of his business.
Putting his thoughts aside, Fujino began to play with the hidden blade in his hand.
He raised his hand and swung his sword.
As if it were innate, the hidden blade extends from its sheath with the kinetic energy of the arm's swing.
There were no special effects or sounds.
It was as if the sword had never been swung at all.
Only the blade, gleaming with a somber silver light under the moonlight, could attest to the fact that the strike had indeed been made.
All I can say is that it truly lives up to its reputation as a hidden blade used by assassins.
"Yes, it is indeed one meter long."
Fujino examined the hidden blade in his hand and nodded.
As the system states, this hidden blade can indeed extend and retract freely.
There seems to be some mechanical structure inside that can understand his thoughts; as soon as he has a thought, the hidden blade will retract.
One stretch, one contraction.
I grew longer, and then I grew shorter again.
It's quite fun.
"Ahem."
Fujino coughed lightly and silently sheathed his hidden sword.
Then, turn your attention to the item's description screen.
"The extended skill effect should be that it can be extended or retracted at will. According to the system description, the Indestructible Sleeve Sword should be similar to the Okamoto Wooden Sword..."
Fujino examined the introduction interface and rubbed his chin. "However, the Life and Death Authority and the Sleeve Sword Legacy are a bit outrageous... We still need to test them on some unlucky person to see the truth."
Turning her gaze away, Fujino looked at the item she had just drawn, which was still in the system's inventory:
[Flame Medal: When worn, increases the host's constitution by 5%, mental resistance by 10%, and mental recovery ability by 10%]
[Laptop: A Xiaomi brand laptop, equipped with a 4090 graphics card and Windows 11 (although I don't know what kind of strange collaboration it is, the laptop's outer packaging features a wedding dress)]
[Suit: A simple, unpretentious suit, sourced from a tailor shop favored by a British secret agent. Made of a special material, it can withstand light weapon attacks from a certain distance. It also increases the host's charm by 10 points (what young, beautiful girl wouldn't like a well-mannered British gentleman?). Note: Although it can withstand light weapon attacks, please do not attempt to throw grenades at it.]
[Electric Shock Ring: Capable of releasing high voltage electricity instantly, causing a person to quickly lose consciousness. From a British special agent. (Although the Electric Shock Ring has no real lethality, please refrain from using it to shock strange body parts.)]
[Batman's Grappling Hook: Equipment developed by Wayne Enterprises, exclusively for Bruce Willis. The grappling hook can withstand a large amount of pulling force and has an extremely long range. The pulling force during retrieval is enough to lift a normal adult male into the air. The tip of the grappling hook is equipped with strange technology that can grab almost any material and any shape.]
"This time, they pulled out a lot of good stuff..."
Fujino gazed at the series of system items, a slight smile playing on his lips.
What attracted his attention most were the suit and the grappling hook.
As for the suit, judging from the system description, it should be a Type B Life-Saving Windbreaker. The effect is not weakened much; it's just that the characteristics have been compensated for.
For example, Life-Saving Windbreaker can only withstand one fatal injury.
A gunshot wound is probably a fatal injury.
After being injured, it will enter a recovery state.
This suit, however, is not.
Something that can stop bullets is indeed a good thing.
Even if it can only block attacks from light weapons, why not have an extra trump card to save your life?
And a proper gentleman's suit is very handsome, isn't it?
After thinking for a moment, Fujino took out the suit and changed into it.
Standing in front of the mirror, Fujino looked at himself in his suit and rubbed his chin.
The suit was black, and the fabric was so thin that it felt like wearing nothing at all, which did not match the advertised bulletproof features.
Fujino touched the fabric.
Even someone as unfamiliar with the so-called suit culture as him could tell that this suit was custom-made by a private individual.
As for the fabric used to make the suit, it is made of the finest materials.
How could a bulletproof fabric be bad?
After stretching his body, Fujino looked at himself in the mirror again and inexplicably felt that he looked much more handsome.
It should be the skill effect of the suit increasing charm by ten points.
However, speaking of which, it seems that the system introduction mentioned that this is a tailor shop used by a certain special agent.
"Ace XX?"
Fujino suddenly recalled a spy movie from his past life.
Putting his thoughts aside, Fujino took out his Assassin's Robe, put it on, and quietly headed to the underground parking garage.
He gained quite a lot this time.
The effects of some products still require human testing.
For example, the hidden blade Life and Death Authority.
He, Teng, wasn't foolish enough to commit seppuku himself.
Such potentially dangerous human experiments should only be used on the most vicious criminals...
They underwent human experiments Beika Batman.
This can be seen as a reflection on his crimes and a contribution to society.
Mihua, situated within the circle of activity and stillness, was in the quiet of the night.
In the dimly lit alley, several pairs of eyes hidden in the shadows scanned the passersby, their gazes revealing a predatory intent.
Shops that are usually closed in secluded corners during the day are all open to customers at this time.
This is Beika, a crime capital with a frighteningly high mortality rate and soaring crime rate, known by word of mouth as "the United States has Gotham, Japan has Beika City," or you could call it Beika Town.
Long ago, everyone thought it was just a joke.
However, this joke recently came true.
Just like Batman in Gotham, Miwa also has its own Beika Batman, a vigilante nicknamed Miwa Batman, who walks the shadows of the city fighting crime.
For a time, the crime rate in Beika Town decreased remarkably.
However, the threat of Beika Batman couldn't stop those thugs from taking action. Even at the risk of being beaten up and hospitalized, and then spending several years in jail, they wanted to make a name for themselves in Miwa.
Soon, the figures in the alley found a prey that fit their target.
A fair-skinned, beautiful blonde girl wearing a JK skirt, carrying a shoulder bag.
After his accomplice, who was scouting the area, confirmed that there were no pedestrians around, he...
Several figures in the alley began to move.
One person went up and covered the girl's mouth, while the other two worked together to drag her into the alley.
The division of labor is very clear.
Looks like they're an experienced player.
However, it's unclear what these four people were after when they robbed a high school girl.
Could it be...?
On the rooftop next to the alley, Fujino watched this scene with some doubt in his heart.
However, his clever mind, which had read many strange and unusual books in his previous life, quickly came up with an idea.
Oh~ which way or how many.
The reason he was here was because he had just stepped out when he encountered this group of suspicious-looking guys.
Based on the principle that these sneaky people who appeared in groups in the alleys couldn't be good people, Fujino quietly began his fishing... stalking.
Then, they discovered these beasts who dared to kidnap a blonde beauty in broad daylight.
"What a beast!"
Fujino surveyed the scene in the alley and couldn't help but feel a sense of moral condemnation.
The girl's mouth was wrapped in bandages by the four men, and she could only make whimpering sounds.
The leader, a man dressed in a baseball uniform, pulled out a butterfly knife from his pocket and threatened him.
The intimidation effect was quite obvious.
Under the intimidation of the four men, the girl dared not make a sound.
Moreover, this alley is very deep.
It was also very noisy around.
Even if it makes a sound, it won't be easily noticed by others.
"Slurp!"
"Thump!"
Just as everyone's attention was focused on the high school girl, a noise suddenly came from behind.
Fujino grabbed the Grappling Gun and jumped off the roof.
As the Grappling Gun approached the ground, Fujino gripped the trigger tightly, and the descent speed rapidly decreased.
With a smooth landing, Fujino stood up and with a wave of his hand, the hidden blade on his arm quickly extended.
The white knife was a full meter long.
Accept the betrayal of justice!
Before the others could even react, Fujino rushed forward, thrusting his hidden blade forward, aiming straight for one of the men's backs.
