I fell into the world of cyberpunk games

daughter-

“Hey, I’m a little late today.”

“Yeah, that was the case.”

As I entered the bar front door with the chime, Tony greeted me, drooping over the front table as usual.

Apparently, he is wearing green clothes, and his sobbing appearance today is more reminiscent of dried seaweed.

“By the way, what’s that guy behind you? It’s not open time yet. Why did you bring people you don’t want to see in the morning?”

“I don’t like you that much either, magician.”

Behind me, the self-proclaimed uncle Sherlock Holmes, with a voluptuous body, walked up to me.

Even though I was wearing a large umbrella, my whole body looked wet. That’s why friendship is good.

It seems like it has a lot of water as it is bulky. The truth is, the water drops dripping from every part of the detective’s body, I shouted in awe.

“Stay there. Don’t come in! I’ll put something on it.”

If I go inside as it is, I have to remove all those water thunderbolts. no it will be said

I quickly went to the warehouse and brought a large moisture-absorbing and anti-slip mat and laid it out in front of the front door.

A large screen over two meters in length and width is placed at the entrance, and it is only then that I feel at ease.

“Come in now. Be sure to wipe off any moisture on the mat. If you don’t clean up properly and you just come in and then pollute the store, you will be kicked out.”

“Okay, okay. It’s not like I know anyone as a 10-year-old who can’t tell. The author Antonio and Watson and you are all under low pressure.”

“Because the weather is actually low pressure.”

replied sarcastically.

The air affected by the low pressure has a synergistic action, and in the process, water vapor condenses to become water droplets, and water droplets gather to form dark clouds… And it’s raining.

There is no need to explain such basic scientific common sense.

“Ha, what a witty answer. But, have you ever wondered about that? How does atmospheric pressure work in Dusk City, which is a closed dome, disconnected from the outside world?

You’ve probably heard of a rumor or two about the dusk eNvirOnmental science and AtmospHeric administration (NOAH), which is shrouded in secrecy.”

This is a start again.

Just like the last time we talked about Milicia, it seems like he especially likes these kinds of topics.

The dark side of the city, the dirty corners of Megacorp, and such dangerous and provocative materials.

I’m afraid someone isn’t a detective cosplayer.

“It’s done. I don’t accept conspiracy theories. Once you’ve wiped off all the water, please come in as soon as possible.”

“Not a conspiracy theory, really… .”

“It’s noisy. Do you remember what you said to me last time?”

“… What did I say to you last time?”

At this point, I wonder if I should go to a medical center instead of a bar.

He spoke to the detective who was suspected of being a dementia patient.

“On Monday, you told me there was going to be some interesting news, and I told you to keep an eye on the news, so I checked it out and found nothing.”

Today is Sunday, so 6 days have already passed.

As the self-proclaimed Holmes said, if something had happened about Milicia, it should have been posted right away even if it was in the news.

It should have been published because it was very special.

To say that there is still no good news is just nonsense. You form a lot and say it as if there is something.

I was so deceived by it that I felt pathetic as I looked through the pages of various net newspapers every day.

“Oh yeah. it. Is that still not published?”

“Yes. It hasn’t happened yet, and probably won’t in the future. Just be quiet and sit down.”

“Looks like the press embargo is longer than I expected. It seems that Milicia is putting a lot of pressure on the media to quietly close the case.

Still, it can’t be stopped forever. It’s time to explode Maybe today the article will be… 100 million!”

“Yes, yes. Okay, so please sit down.”

Also, after pushing a detective who was writing his own novel and sending him to the front table, I took off my raincoat and robbed him.

Okay, if I put it in the dryer like this, it will be dry by the time I get home from work.

Tony said to me, who was moving busily to the warehouse again.

“Then why did you bring him? What are the scars on your face? blood is flowing Did it happen yesterday?”

Oh, this hasn’t stopped bleeding yet. It should have been cut by something quite sharp… .

I answered, wiping the drops of blood from my cheeks with the hem of my clothes.

“no. I told you there was a situation earlier, because of that. I mean, it’s long… I ran into a robber on the road and was a little hurt, and Mr. Holmes over there was passing by and helped me.”

“It’s long, so to speak, not at all.”

At Tony’s words, I went into the warehouse and laid down a raincoat.

“Iknow, right. I guess I have a knack for shortening long stories.”

The jukebox is turned off, and there are no customers, so it’s so quiet that it’s almost impossible to communicate even if you’re talking from a distance.

He shrugged as he walked back down the hallway.

“So, in return for the help, he said that if he didn’t get a free cocktail, he would die of thirst right away, so I brought him here. I’m going to give you a quick drink and finish it.”

“It’s just that kind of manly thing. I just told you to die of thirst.”

“It’s not hard. If you curse me like that, I’ll live a long life and keep going to this bar until you retire!”

“Did you hear me? This is the worst news I have heard this year.”

Two men chatting with each other while sitting diagonally at a bar table.

Watching the growling figure, he ignited the fire.

“You two don’t seem to get along very well?”

“Let me just say that I am not a pleasant guest to meet.”

“It’s so fun to hear something like that from a bartender with an unpleasant brewing ability!”

Hey, this is almost unfamiliar. If you bring popcorn, it would be just right.

“Last time, they didn’t seem to care much about each other.”

When referring to the last time the truth detective came to the bar, Tony shook his head.

“Because you don’t have to worry about it. You can’t just pay attention.”

“I have a much better senior bartender, so why do I have to be distracted by such a low-ranking bartender?”

“Tell the customer that you are not the lowest, but the second. Ah, the store hasn’t opened yet, so I can’t be considered a customer.”

I know Tony is close to an egg, and that detective is by far the eldest of all the people here.

Is this the guy’s conversation right? my heart is enlarged It was quite childish.

The detective guy said that he and Tony didn’t get along, but I didn’t expect it to be this much.

Come to think of it, I think Tony even encouraged me to have a conversation with that truth detective last time.

When I said that, Tony replied sullenly.

“That’s it, aside from what I don’t like, I was advised not to avoid it and mix things up because I have to go through a group of dogs like that to get used to.”

“It is. That one thoughtless piece of advice meant I had to hold on to hearing some useless conspiracy theories about Megacorp.”

“Because it’s not a conspiracy theory! Watson, are you going to keep doing this? When the article comes out soon, I’ll leave it there. You will regret what I said now!”

The figure of a detective poking an umbrella in his hand as if he was poised and pointed in the air.

When I saw that, something suddenly came to my mind, and he held out his hand and said.

“Oh right. I almost forgot Give me all your weapons. No weapons. You know?”

“… Wasn’t it open yet? I don’t think it’s necessary to follow the rules so thoroughly.”

“Then will you come back after the bar is open? Originally, that was correct. For now, I’m just going to take care of you for a while.”

“Yeah, take it. Take it all.”

In the end, the truth detective raised a white flag and laid out the weapons inside the cloak coat again on the even-water table.

Then he looked at me hoping that I would get my weapons, but I stood still and didn’t move.

“… And why? Didn’t you give me everything you wanted What else are you looking at me to take away?”

“You’re not serious, are you?”

I think I can see how Sei was able to distinguish all kinds of secret weapons like ghosts so well.

As we go through this kind of situation every day, our ability to discriminate is bound to increase.

I sighed and held out my hand again.

“umbrella. Give it to me.”

I was almost deceived by the barrel holding the umbrella in my arms so proudly, but it’s not too late.

“… This is just an ordinary umbrella!”

“Yes. It’s probably an umbrella with a built-in firearm function using a compressed air valve. I used it right in front of my eyes a few minutes ago, and I’m sure you didn’t think it would work.”

Saying that, he mercilessly took the umbrella as well. Leaving behind the bewildered detective and Tony laughing at the detective, the weapons are moved to the safe box.

Then he came back and brought up an interesting topic again.

“So why are you on a bad relationship? First of all, it seems that Mr. Holmes quarreled first. Right?”

“Sibirani, it was a legitimate protest as a customer.”

“Justification is bullshit. Orange peel is the standard for this cocktail, but why add lemon peel, why not use the original recipe and use a simplified recipe, isn’t this too cheap synthetic wine… .

I’ve been messing around with all sorts of things. In other words, it hurts my mouth.”

Tony’s snoring smile made me nod my head involuntarily. A deep sense of unity was felt.

Not being able to give my habit to others, I almost would have suffered the same. Even from the first day of work.

“Yeah, yes. honestly admit it That was my fault. But you, the magician, wouldn’t be in a very proud position, would you?”

When my intentions, which had been given the role of the referee for a while, seemed to shift to one side, the truth detective hurriedly took the counterattack.

It seems that he also had a story to tell.
