45. Have a Nice Weekend, Mr. Gunter

"What a difficult little devil."

"Well..."

"Never mind, this is more interesting."

"In the end, the prey caught in the spider web will eventually be eaten up."

8:21, Ekoda Museum

The police from the Criminal Investigation Division 2 have not yet lifted the blockade of the museum, and the media outside the venue are still excitedly interviewing the police about the details of their failed operation.

The high school detective Hakuba Saguru who participated in the operation was also caught up in the action by the reporters.

Just as both sides were surrounded by the media and asked various questions, Spider, dressed in black, walked out from the darkness.

He was wearing a black hooded windbreaker to cover his blond hair, and a mask with three lenses emitting a strange red light, which covered his entire body and the upper half of his face.

He turned away from the Ekoda Museum and gave a playful smile.

He has already fought against Kaito Kid.

Although it was a sneak attack, Kaito Kid was indeed completely unable to resist after being hit by his illusion. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Hakuba Saguru to disrupt the situation, Kaito Kid would have already turned into a corpse.

After confirming that he was just that good, the Spider was not in a hurry to kill him tonight.

He was ready to leave.

But at the moment when the time reached 8:36, the Spider paused, and then walked away quickly as if nothing had happened.

————

The night is still and silent.

The silver E-W210 was parked at the entrance of a remote alley.

When Spider arrived here, he walked straight to the silver car, opened the passenger door and got in.

As soon as he sat down, he began to speak:

"The truth behind the illusion is the imaging device I'm wearing, which assistsed by the hypnosis with an odorless gas."

"When illuminated by the red light emitted by this device, people will fall into a momentary trance and let go of their subconscious mind."

"It takes advanced hypnosis skills to create an illusion."

"Hypnotic gases will amplify these senses and perceptions."

"And the reason why I can move in the air is actually because I use invisible drones with the spider web silk I modulate to achieve the purpose of restraining the target invisibly or pulling myself away from the original place."

I see.

A pure technological killer.

Hayashi Yoshiki sat in the driver's seat, listening quietly to Spider's self-explanation.

"I have a gas release device hidden under my clothes."

"Whether it's gas or spider webs, they were all made with materials I personally obtained."

"The main formula of the gas is the venom of a specific spider. The characteristic of the venom is that the person bitten will become dazed and then have hallucinations. Other chemical ingredients are needed to prepare this venom into a colorless and odorless gas..."

"Also, this ring on my left hand is my trump card. It contains a large amount of hypnotic gas and a one-time light wave irradiation."

"It is more powerful than the normal illusion."

"But it can only be used once."

The Spider revealed all the secrets of his illusion like pouring beans.

What's important is the red visible light and the hypnotic gas.

Perhaps it was because of his rich imagination, Hayashi Yoshiki suddenly remembered that in some hypnosis anime, the hypnosis pen also emitted red light.

*TL Note: If you know, you know...

But this world is indeed wonderful...

Everyone is still using big-headed computers, but Spider has already used invisible drones, and his props are as scientific as Prof. Agasa's magical inventions.

Thinking about these things, Hayashi Yoshiki said with a smile:

"Thank you very much for letting me know, Mr. Gunter."

"But regarding the method of making the hypnotic gas you mentioned, can you write down more detailed steps in this book?"

"The techniques and methods of extraction, including the channels through which the materials were obtained."

"Thank you for all the trouble."

Hayashi Yoshiki handed him a notebook.

The Spider replied "OK" and started taking notes.

After five or six minutes, the Spider stopped writing.

He is a very methodical man.

Hayashi Yoshiki took it and looked at it, and found that based on the content recorded above, what he wanted to do was not difficult.

The relevant materials and equipment are not difficult to obtain. As for the techniques, although he has never practiced them, Hayashi Yoshiki does not mind learning.

If worst comes to worst, he can still use the organization's channels.

After thinking carefully and confirming that he couldn't think of anything else that needed to be answered, Hayashi Yoshiki said:

"Okay, I have no more questions."

"You can leave now and have a nice weekend, Mr. Gunter."

The Spider got out and left.

Before leaving, he took off all his killer equipment and left them on the passenger seat. Hayashi Yoshiki took a look and drove away.

"Gunter von Elli"

"At 20:36 on the evening of April 27, he went to the alley at No. 16 Street near the Ekoda City Library and got into the passenger seat of a silver sedan with the license plate number "Shinjuku 414-10-02."

"After sitting down, he began to reveal all the secrets of his illusion abilities."

"During this time, he answered all the questions asked by the man in the driver's seat."

"After answering the questions of the man in the driver's seat, he left behind the tools needed for the illusion and left."

"After that, a large number of related props will be ordered or made, and will be deposited in the No. 47 safe of the Beika Hotel after 15 days. The key will be handed over to the front desk for safekeeping and the code word "Spider" will be left."

"He immediately felt he has lost interest in everything, and went to the United States to live a normal life."

"Twenty-two days after the name was written on the note, at 03:55 local time, write the word "Rum" on the wall of his room with blood."

"Then commit suicide."

This is all about Spider's death in the Death Note.

Hayashi Yoshiki planned to control someone to take out the things stored in the hotel safe later.

As for why the word "Rum" was left in the name, it was purely to cause trouble for the organization - the suicide of a world-class illusionist would definitely cause a sensation.

As for whether his identity as a killer has been discovered by organizations like the FBI, Hayashi Yoshiki guessed that it had been discovered, after all, even a high school student like Hakuba Saguru could discover it.

It just so happens that Rum's code name is also conspicuous, which easily makes people think of the organization.

It would be best if the Mysterious Organization and the Black Organization could get into a fight over this, but Spider is not part of the Mysterious Organization after all, so this is not realistic.

"I need to find an opportunity to test my new abilities. Besides..."

I have to build a good relationship with Akako Koizumi...

While driving on the empty road, Hayashi Yoshiki was thinking in his heart.

Also, according to what the Spider said, he also need to learn some related hypnosis techniques.
