Chapter 811 Commission

When D arrived at the desk, she saw the recording button on the phone on the desk was flashing, so she pressed it with one hand, and then a voice sounded.

"It's me. I need your help with something. I'll go to your place later."

"Dotte? What's his trouble again?"

This voice was not unfamiliar to D. He was a policeman in the city where D was currently located. The two sides had cooperated several times. Generally speaking, Dotte was a policeman with a strong sense of justice, and the two sides got along well. He also entrusted D to help investigate and solve several cases of electronic demons.

This call was probably also for this matter.

Due to the Doomsday, satellites all over the world were basically blown up, and base stations used to transmit signals were even more destroyed. For safety reasons, humans have now returned to the era of landlines and public telephones. After all, no matter what, this thing is not afraid of being invaded and destroyed by electronic networks.

D didn't care about this, and there was also a kind of retro beauty. Of course, for modern people who are used to using mobile phones, it might be more troublesome.

"Dong Dong Dong."

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and D sat on the chair and changed his posture.

"Come in."

As D spoke, the door opened, and then a man in a police uniform walked in.

"Hey, good morning, Duanmu."

"Good morning, Duote."

D also greeted the man in front of him. Now that he was hiding his real name, he naturally couldn't use the name D. After all, in the current education textbooks, D was included in the textbooks as a person who influenced human history. Using this name again would be too dangerous.

So...D decided to change his name.

That's right, the one in front of you now is the 17-year-old youthful and invincible cute beautiful girl idol, Duanmu Ai! (<ゝω·)~KIRA☆

Ahem, okay, enough joking.

"Do you have a case for me?"

"Yes, this case is a bit strange."

Duanmu Huai - no, Duanmu Ai and Duote had dealt with each other a lot, and they were familiar with each other. Duote also knew that this girl didn't like to be polite, so he got straight to the point. He took out a file and placed it in front of Duanmu Ai.

"Not long ago, we received a report that a teacher in a school bullied students."

"Hmm......"

Duanmu Ai was not surprised by this. After all, no matter what era or place, human beings will be divided into different levels, and fighting between each other is inevitable. Not to mention schools, even in units, companies, enterprises and even families, bullying also exists.

It's just that the bullied people in enterprises or units can just smash the keyboard on the other party's face and shout "I quit", but unfortunately students don't have this ability.

"I accepted this case and investigated it. I found that the physical education teacher in that school was very suspicious. According to the secret investigation, he is likely to abuse and bully students in the name of training."

"So you don't want me to pretend to be a student and break into the school and investigate this matter."

"You are half right."

Hearing Duanmu Ai's question, Dut laughed.

"In fact, the case has been closed."

"……………Are you kidding me?"

Duanmu Ai stared at Dutte. If the latter said something wrong, she would smash the pearwood desk directly on his face.

"Listen to me first."

Seeing that Duanmu Ai's expression was wrong, Dutte also waved his hand hurriedly.

"It is indeed difficult to investigate this kind of bullying case, but we are not without progress, because during our investigation, a female student tried to jump off the building to commit suicide because she couldn't stand the bullying of the teacher. Fortunately, she was rescued. According to the results of our police examination, she has a lot of old bruises on her body. From a medical point of view, it is obviously beyond the scope of ordinary exercise. So we thought about questioning her after she wakes up. If the female student is willing to assist the police, then we can take down the scum in one fell swoop!"

"But?"

"But... before the girl woke up, the teacher took the initiative to surrender."

"……………………Huh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Ai opened her eyes in surprise, and Lumiel standing next to her also showed an unexpected expression.

"Yes, he turned himself in, and confessed his criminal experience to us with great pain. He has been imprisoned and is awaiting trial."

"Isn't that good? What's the problem?"

In Duanmu Ai's opinion, there didn't seem to be anything particularly strange about this case.

"Indeed, most people would react in this way when they heard it."

Duo Te nodded.

"But this case is a little unusual. At least from my investigation, the teacher doesn't seem to be the kind of person who would repent."

"Maybe he got scared because someone died? Some people are like this. They are complacent on weekdays, but once someone dies, they get scared..."

"One day later, he tried to expel the students who resisted him. How could such an unrepentant guy regret it? Moreover, before he turned himself in, such a thing happened in his school."

As he spoke, Duo Te took out a piece of paper and handed it to Duanmu Ai, who took the letter and glanced at it.

"Lustful shameless bastard——Teacher [XXXX], you impose twisted desires on students who cannot resist. We know very well how outrageous your actions are, so we decided to steal your twisted desires and let you confess your crimes. We will deal with you tomorrow, so be ready————The Phantom Thieves of Heart."

After reading the letter, Duanmu Ai raised his head in confusion.

"What is this?"

"This appeared on the school bulletin board one day after the girl jumped off the building, and then a few days later, the man turned himself in."

"So, do you think what is said above is true? Someone stole the man's sinful desires, so he felt guilty and turned himself in?"

Duanmu Ai shook the letter in his hand, and Dot nodded.

"Yes, we suspect that this is most likely the work of an electronic demon."

"Electronic demons... Electronic demons can indeed affect other people's minds to a certain extent, but I think you should have tested that man a long time ago."

Duanmu Ai didn't find the electronic demon's statement strange. After all, many electronic demons can impose states such as "confusion", "coma" and "charm" on human minds to a certain extent, but these states will be discovered once they are checked. Departments like Dot naturally have similar procedures.

"Yes, that's the problem. The inspection results show that he is innocent, and he himself said that he didn't know about the Phantom Thieves, but he suddenly thought about it. In other words, he was not affected by some kind of mental magic, but his personality suddenly changed 180 degrees. There must be something wrong with this, plus the previous letter - we suspect that someone must have interfered."

"So you came to me."

At this moment, Duanmu Ai finally understood.

"Yes, we hope that you can enter that school as a transfer student and conduct investigations there as a student. Maybe you can find those who distort and change other people's minds. You should understand how dangerous this kind of thing is."

"Of course."

Duanmu Ai nodded slightly. Although on the surface, the other party was doing good things. But in fact, this is a very dangerous behavior, because it means that anyone's thoughts can be changed at will. If this goes on, no one will dare to trust others. Once this matter is exposed, the impact on society will be not small.

"So, we announced the closure of the case on the surface, but the police station has begun to secretly investigate the case privately, so I found you and hope you can help."

"No problem, then if I find the Phantom Thieves, should I arrest them or kill them on the spot?"

"Uh... Anyway, don't be too violent."

Hearing Duanmu Ai's question, Dot silently wiped the cold sweat.

"We still want to ask them how they manipulate other people's hearts, and then..."

"Then you can control this power to manipulate other people, well, I'd better kill you right here."

"………………"

Faced with Duanmu Ai's ridicule, Dot had nothing to say and could only stand up.

"Anyway, this matter has attracted attention, and we must find a way to solve this case. Everything about this case is here, as for what to do next... you decide."

"Leave it to me."

After the conversation, Dot left the office, and at this time Lumiel also came over and picked up the case file.

"This is really a strange case."

"Indeed, Lumiel, what do you think? Is there any electronic demon that can do this?"

"As far as I know, it seems that no electronic demon can do this."

Lumiel thought about everything and shook his head.

"Most electronic demons have short-term mental control abilities and will fail. Nightmare is an expert in this area, we can ask them what they think."

"Then it's decided."

Hearing this, Duanmu Ai also stood up.

"Let's go ask the experts for their opinions first."

For Duanmu Ai, this was not a difficult task.

"Completely distort the human mind in a short period of time?"

The female nightmare sitting behind the bar, wearing a leather jacket and with a pair of bat wings on her back, looked at Duanmu Ai curiously.

"We don't have such ability, or rather, no electronic demon has such ability. Indeed, if it is a long-term mental invasion, we may be able to change other people's cognition step by step through suggestion and brainwashing. Of course, this requires a process, and it also depends on the other party's determination. But turning a person into another person in a short period of time? Impossible, absolutely impossible."

The female nightmare shook her head, then raised her chin to the side, and saw that under the dim light, a group of humans were lying on the bed. There were men and women among them. At this moment, they all closed their eyes and fell into a deep sleep. This reminded Duanmu Ai of the original Chaomeng in this world--well, the difference is that these people enjoy a higher level than Chaomeng.

"The human spirit is very fragile. Take me for example. I can indeed stimulate other people's spirits in a short period of time and cause their cognition to collapse, but the result will either turn humans into lunatics or slaves who obey orders. However, even the Nightmare Clan cannot completely distort their personality and turn them into another person."

"Does anyone among the electronic demons you know have the ability to do this?"

"Maybe you can ask Lady Lilith, but I don't think the answer will change. If we had this ability, we would have conquered humans long ago."

"That's right. If we had this ability, you would have died long ago."

Duanmu Ai was also sure that the electronic demons did not have this kind of power. There were quite a few people among the Ten Disasters who could do similar things, but that was just like what the female Nightmare said, simply turning the other party into a slave who obeyed orders, rather than completely changing their minds and becoming another person.

It seems that the only way to determine the situation is to investigate the school.
