Chapter 3 Causality Skills
Kirigiri Shimizu walked out from the other end of the alley, the black long coat on her body was buttoned up, covering the inner side of her thighs and the pubic area of her pants.
Two men in suits stood guard at the intersection. When they saw Kirigiri Shimizu coming out, they quickly approached and bowed: "Captain!"
"No witnesses, retrieve the target ghoul's body," Kirigiri Shimizu felt a chill under her coat, but her expression did not change. After giving orders to her subordinates, she walked straight into a black car parked by the roadside.
It was only when the car started and left that the two men in suits cautiously lifted their heads.
"The first time I've seen the captain button up her coat," one man in a suit said. "No matter how she dresses, she always looks cool."
"Maybe she got splattered with ghoul blood," the other man in a suit said. "After all, the captain is also a woman, and she occasionally pays attention to her appearance."
"I almost forgot that the captain is also a woman. Although from a human aesthetic perspective, the captain is indeed beautiful, it's still difficult to appreciate her according to female standards. Just standing in front of the captain makes my male genes go on alert."
"Cough, lower your voice."
Now, inside the speeding black car.
Kirigiri Shimizu sat upright in the back seat, her brows furrowed as she stared straight ahead.
Komachi Akane sat in the front seat, her body tense, her hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly they were turning pale. She was just a rookie police officer, and when she found out she was being transferred to work alongside Kirigiri Shimizu, she was so happy she couldn't sleep all night.
Her boss was a cool and cold beauty, a plotline she often encountered in some strange manga.
During the quiet hours of the night, Komachi Akane would imagine some strange scenes to help herself, like being pinned down on the office desk by her cool boss.
But after witnessing her boss's battle, Komachi Akane had already considered giving up this hard-earned job as a civil servant.
She would never forget Kirigiri Shimizu sitting on a pile of corpses, emotionless as she wiped the black and red bloodstains from the blade with a white cloth.
The shattered limbs on the ground made her vomit on the spot, and for a week, she would vomit at the sight of flesh. It was only through the care of a psychologist that she eventually recovered.
But today's captain seemed even more terrifying, like a bloodthirsty beast searching for its prey.
"Please don't eat me..." Komachi Akane's eyes welled up with tears as she tried hard not to cry out of fear.
Of course, she didn't know that in reality, Kirigiri Shimizu was just communicating with something that suddenly appeared in her mind.
Faced with this incomprehensible thing, she still tended to consider it as some kind of enemy's means. She never believed in unreasonable things but couldn't find a countermeasure, so she could only go along with it for now.
Following the guidance in her mind, she selected the mainline mission.
"Main Mission confirmed."
"Mission: Mother's Love Flows Like Water."
"Synopsis: Within one month, make Li Xia believe that you are his long-lost biological mother."
"Newbie gift pack randomly generating."
"Generation successful: Random skill gift pack."
"Skill gift pack?" Kirigiri Shimizu frowned. The literal understanding of a skill gift pack is to gain skills, but this obviously goes beyond common knowledge.
Komachi Akane, sitting in the front row, saw Kirigiri Shimizu suddenly frowning, became even more nervous, and tears involuntarily flowed. It seems she should indeed submit a resignation application; the captain is too frightening.
Kirigiri Shimizu's brain prompts continued:
"Randomly generate three rewards, choose one."
"1. Skill Enhancement. Note: Randomly upgrade an existing skill from the system rewards."
"2. Passive Skill. Note: Randomly acquire a passive skill."
"3. Causality Skill. Note: Randomly acquire a causality skill."
"Causality Skill?" Kirigiri Shimizu skipped the first two options directly. The first option, enhancing existing skills, was immediately excluded as it did not offer any system rewards.
The second option, a passive skill, was also tempting, but in comparison, the third option, the Causality Skill, caught her attention more.
Clicking on the third option, there were further explanations below.
"Causality Skill: Possesses the power of causal reversal, determining the established result first, then deducing the cause. The result cannot be changed and will definitely be achieved."
Upon seeing this explanation, even someone as composed as Kirigiri Shimizu experienced a momentary emotional fluctuation. If what the explanation said was true, then this so-called Causality Skill clearly went beyond the rules.
With each swing of her sword, before even striking, she had already determined that it would pierce through the opponent's heart, rendering any armor or evasion useless.
In this moment, Kirigiri Shimizu hoped that this system truly existed.
At this moment, she closed her eyes and mentally filtered through everything that had happened today before speaking: "Option three."
"Ding! Option three, the Causality Skill, has been chosen. Skill generation in progress."
"Generation complete: Causality Skill, Level 1 Divine Throw."
"Skill Description: When you fall, if there is a woman within a radius of half a meter, you will definitely trip her, while simultaneously grabbing her private parts with your right hand."
"Cooldown: 24 hours"
"Upgrade Effects: Reduce cooldown time, increase skill range, and allow for a deeper reach with your right hand."
Kirigiri Shimizu: "?!?!?"
Rubbing her own nose with her hand, she opened her eyes again and carefully read the skill description word by word, confirming that her eyes were not playing tricks on her.
The causality skill looks amazing from every angle, but it is slightly different from what she had imagined.
The mechanical prompt sounded once again:
"Newbie task rewards have been distributed, main quest selected, and the Wonderful Life System is officially activated."
"Task description: Family is the most important part of a wonderful life. As the role of a mother, please make him believe in your identity."
"Note: Random events will be triggered during the game. Upon completing three random events, you will receive a special reward from the Wonderful Life System."
"Failure in each random event will result in a random punishment from the system."
"Do not reveal the existence of the system to anyone. Once the system determines a violation, it will directly cause the host's brain to die."
"Wishing you a pleasant time in the Wonderful Life game~"
After the beep, Kirigiri Shimizu whispered to the system in her mind, but received no response. However, the constant chill on the inner side of her thigh reminded her that all of this was indeed happening.
"Li Xia..." Kirigiri Shimizu murmured this name. The existence of the system was completely beyond her understanding, and the feeling of someone controlling life and death was not pleasant.
But at the same time, this unknown existence could also give her a power beyond comprehension, which was exactly what she needed.
"Mother, huh? Such a strange word."
Kirigiri Shimizu closed her eyes, recalling memories associated with this term in her mind. After she closed her eyes, Komachi Akane finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like she had come back to life. She pulled out a tissue to wipe away her tears.
Perhaps she should resign after all; she was just a small police officer.
After a while, their black sedan stopped in front of a high-end apartment building.
"Captain, we've arrived," Komachi Akane cautiously spoke, "Is there anything else you need me to do?"
Kirigiri Shimizu opened her eyes, glanced outside the window, and said, "Come to my room; I have some questions for you."
After saying that, she pushed open the door and got out of the car.
"Huh?" Komachi Akane was taken aback. She had just casually mentioned it, never expecting to be asked to work overtime. In an instant, she wanted to slap herself.
As the car was parked in the lot, she followed behind Kirigiri Shimizu and entered the elevator.
Kirigiri Shimizu pressed the button for the 12th floor, then stood still, quietly waiting for the elevator to ascend.
Standing behind her, she felt an intense, oppressive atmosphere, yet she dared not speak, only able to steal glances at her superior from the corner of her eye.
Her silver-white hair cascaded casually over her shoulders, her countenance appearing as if meticulously chiseled by the god of craftsmen from legend.
However, due to her usual attire of a black men's suit and a black trench coat, one could hardly perceive her as a woman, especially with the constant emanation of her icy aura and subtle, yet unmistakable, air of danger.
The elevator emitted a soft "ding," pulling her back from her thoughts.
Kirigiri Shimizu exited the elevator, and she cautiously followed behind.
At that moment, Kirigiri Shimizu's body suddenly lurched forward.
"Be careful!" Komachi Akane inexplicably shouted, not even considering why her formidable captain would experience such instability, hastily taking a step forward.
