Chapter eight hundred and twentieth behind the scenes
Kudo Shinichi was in a bad mood at the moment.
Very bad.
He stood in this room that was obviously a classroom, looking at the neatly arranged tables and chairs, his face a little livid.
Why are there classrooms in this building?
Labs, lounges without separate bathrooms, classrooms...
I don't know how high this building is, but there are 36 doors on the first floor, and there are more rooms behind the doors.
This is more like a gathering place than a company.
Kudo Shinichi rummaged through the surrounding classrooms with a sullen face and only found some books.
They are all books that are incomprehensible.
Fortunately, there is a system to help with translation.
[Student Rules]
[Future career options]
[Education Direction]
[Attitude towards experimental subjects]
One after another, books that had nothing to do with knowledge and looked like brainwashing books were read out by Kudo Shinichi.
The student code of conduct contains rules and what students should do.
Students who fail will be kicked out of the building.
In terms of future career choices, everyone is constantly encouraged to choose to become scientific researchers. It is said to be a choice, but in fact there is no second choice at all.
There is nothing good to say about the content recorded in the education direction. The content is all about how dangerous it is outside, how happy it is inside, and how lucky you are to be able to study. If you don't cherish it, you will be driven away.
It seems that everything is full of choices and freedom, but in fact it is not.
Kudo Shinichi felt like he had touched something, but it was still a little short of the mark.
All the adults here are brainwashing the little kids who haven't become researchers yet.
but……
Why do this?
The book says that the building is safe inside but dangerous outside the building. So what's going on?
Were there already monsters out there at that time?
Or maybe after the monster appeared, there were still survivors living in this building?
Kudo Shinichi silently entered the ventilation duct and continued to the next location to find the target.
At this moment, Hattori Heiji found the public restroom and bathhouse.
There are shower heads in compartments one after another, and silver-white cabinets are arranged one after another.
One cabinet is divided into at least hundreds of grids.
And this bathhouse also has hundreds of cubicles.
The cabinets are not locked and can be opened at will.
Hattori Heiji opened one and found that the cabinet contained a basin, towels, toothpaste, toothbrush, and soap.
Then he opened the second one, the third one...
I opened several of them in a row, and the things inside were all exactly the same, placed in the same position, and didn't even have different colors.
Hattori Heiji's body couldn't help but tremble.
He didn't think it was very rigorous, he just felt inexplicably depressed.
Everyone's life is like a stretched straight ruler, which will break sooner or later.
At this moment, Detective Baima entered a special room.
What's so special? This room is special because it's different from other rooms.
Other rooms are cold and hard, as if they have no other use except for sleeping, and you can't even feel the atmosphere of human life.
This room is not like that.
Although there is no difference in general, some details can make people feel popular.
Maybe it's the plant specimens on the table, maybe it's the small lamp on the bedside table.
All reveal a subtle and warm atmosphere.
This made Detective Baima, who originally planned to leave, choose to stay and search carefully.
Sometimes, the more different the places, the more likely they are to hide clues.
Detective Bai Ma found a diary under the quilt.
The above notes are not immature, but very mature.
[I want to leave here, this is an isolated island.]
[There is no freedom and secrets here. I can only hide under the quilt and write a diary, otherwise everything will be seen by those people.]
[Just like those experimental subjects who are observed 24 hours a day, anyone can see them through the window, and the same is true for us.]
[Always full of disgusting looks.]
[I will be free with my companions.]
[We found an opportunity, they went crazy, and those people died.]
[Tomorrow we will go behind the scenes to observe the situation. If nothing else happens, I will be able to tell other people in the building that everyone is free when I come back.]
Bai Ma Tan looked at the contents of the diary and fell into thinking.
【Team Channel】
Hattori Heiji: Did you find anything? I found public restrooms and public bathhouses here. These people must be living a life of robots every day.
Kudo Shinichi: Sure enough, I guessed that there would be these places before, and I found the classroom here.
Detective Baima: I found a diary in a room with some strange contents.
Kudo Shinichi: Wait for me, let me take a look.
Hattori Heiji: Me too, I’ll be there soon.
Detective Bai Ma looked at the two small green dots on the team's position that were gradually approaching him, pulled out a chair next to him and sat down.
Not long after, there was movement from the ventilation duct overhead.
Then a figure jumped down.
It's Kudo Shinichi.
"Show me the diary." Kudo Shinichi stretched out his hand towards Hakuba.
Detective Baima handed the diary to the other party.
Another figure jumped down from the opening of the ventilation duct.
Hattori Heiji looked at Hakuba Tan and Kudo Shinichi. When he saw the diary in Kudo Shinichi's hand, he quickly leaned over to observe.
They flipped through the diary page by page, and no one spoke until they finished reading.
"What do you think?" Bai Ma Tan sat on a chair and observed the plant specimens for a while and asked casually.
"It feels a bit scary." Hattori Heiji said.
Are robots better off than this?
Is there anyone keeping an eye on it 24 hours a day?
"Have you noticed the behind-the-scenes mentioned in the diary?" Kudo Shinichi's fingers holding the notebook turned white.
"Indeed, this word... is very similar to the staff behind the scenes of stage performances and the like..." Hattori Heiji said thoughtfully, and then he seemed to realize something, with a surprised expression on his face.
"Don't you think...it won't happen...but it's very possible..." Hattori Heiji's words were a little confused.
"I think there's nothing wrong with your guess. It's very likely to be correct." He patted Kudo Shinichi's shoulder solemnly.
"But if that's the case, those people are obviously dead, why didn't the owner of the diary come back?" Hattori Heiji touched his chin and thought.
"The brave man who slayed the dragon eventually became the evil dragon, and the brave man who wanted to bring freedom to others finally became the new man behind the scenes..." Kudo Shinichi said in a low voice.
"We have been given hints from the beginning, about heroes and demon kings, but the former heroes have become new demon kings, and we players may be the new heroes." He said with a very deep look in his eyes.
"So, where is the Demon King?" White Horse Detective asked.
If the hero wants to defeat the devil, where is the devil?
"Well... the person behind the scenes is the Demon King. We still have no clues behind the scenes and don't know where those eyes are hidden." Kudo Shinichi scratched his head and said.
