Chapter 9: Partial Confession

When Misato comes home in the evening, she sees Shinji spitting clouds and smoke in the living room, smoking her cigarette, of course, and holding an open can of beer in her hand. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"You kid actually learned to smoke and drink!" Misato snatched the cigarette butt from his hand and extinguished it.

was about to continue the lesson, but when he saw Shinji suffering with a tear-stained face, he said in a muffled voice, "In this life, only knowledge and talent cannot be disappointed, and the rest is dispensable." ”

"It's not like that's something you sigh at your age. The corners of Misato's mouth twitched, and she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to make a sound. It's obviously a child, but he looks like an adult who has been hurt by his feelings.

"Women are really incomprehensible beings. Shinji continued to sigh.

"What, what hit you got at school today? It has something to do with Rei-chan?" Misato asked with concern.

"With a face that looks so much like my mother, but so fierce, I don't want to pay attention to her anymore. Shinji rubbed his face, "I've grown so big, this is the second time I've been beaten." ”

"What? Rei-chan hit you? What the hell did you do?" Misato looked curious.

Shinji told me about today's events, and Misato rolled on the floor laughing after hearing this, "Haha, I really didn't expect you to use this way...... Rei-chan is such a quiet person who can make you angry...... Hahaha laughed at me...... By the way, you just said that you were beaten for the second time, so who was the first time you were beaten?"

"You. ”

Misato: "......"

"The smoke is so choking, the beer is so unpleasant, I don't understand how you like these, have you been hurt too, Sister Misato?" Shinji went straight back to his room and continued to lick his wounds.

Today's insurance company finally sent the experimental equipment and the main unit, and Shinji was tinkering around the room, dispelling his attention well.

When Misato was cleaning up the garbage, she found the discarded "Understanding Women" and "The Secret Technique of Dating Boys and Girls", as well as a painted pencil portrait with only the upper half of the face, light blue hair, and crystal red eyes...... "It seems that Shinji has been hurt deeply, and adolescent boys have a strong self-esteem." "Misato doesn't know how to comfort Shinji, after all, Rei Ayanami is also a problem girl, and she doesn't know what to do.

I was about to cheer him up, but I found that Shinji had already put on a virtual reality headset and played the game, and had a lot of fun. Playing games with the MAGI system is such a luxury, but this month's electricity bill will make Misato some cry.

After a while, Shinji was tired of playing and was going to take a shower, "What game are you playing?" Misato asked, sipping beer.

"Shooting versus game. ”

"Boys really like it. By the way, the big refrigerator-like guy in your room is a biological computer mainframe? There are other devices that look like electronic labs. Misato continued to inquire for information, as she seemed to have seen military equipment that was not being sold to the civilian sector.

"Yes, I worked hard for years to save up money to buy these devices for programming and games. "The personality came out to deal with it, so as not to be smeared with any sensitive information.

"Oh, so where do you get that much money? A kid can't make that much money developing software. "Misato has investigated Shinji's bank account and found that the source of the funds is unknown, and there are funds with numerous accounts around the world.

"Of course, it's gray income, just a list of collecting information. "To put it bluntly, it's an illegal invasion, and Shinji's eyes suddenly change from a little sheep to a big bad wolf.

"It's illegal. And how did you get that atomic probe scanner, it's military equipment. "Misato was surprised that Shinji was so cooperative.

"Of course, it's a single under D-NET, as long as you have money, you can get N2 mines. ”

"You still know about the system?" Misato's expression is serious, Shinji is by no means as simple as it seems, and the people who can trade on D-NET are all old drivers who are proficient in technology and people's hearts, how can he be a stupid and sweet autistic boy.

"What more do you want to know? Miss Misato. Shinji walked over to the table and met Misato's scrutinizing gaze, and the frustration and loss on his face were swept away. Instead, there is self-confidence and an inexplicable aura.

"I've given you a lot of material for your report today, how would you describe me in it? Shinji simply made it clear, after all, it was a matter of time.

"Shinji, you ......" Misato was very surprised, Shinji at this time seemed to be a different person, and he was estranged from her, and he felt a little guilty and empty-hearted.

"That's right, I've seen every analysis report you submitted about me, but it's something I expected, and I find it strange that you don't do it. ”

"This is the true face of Shinji, right, did he pretend to be crazy and stupid before?" Misato's mind began to get confused.

"Please advise me when we meet for the first time, Miss Misato. "Li Personality intends to confess appropriately and gain part of the right to speak with the advantage of a prophet, otherwise no one cares about the words of the second commodity of the personality.

"Introduce yourself, I'm Shinji's second personality, and you can think of me as a product of his escapism. Shinji's eyes became sharp and aggressive, much to Misato's shock.

"What? Shinji...... Stop making jokes. Of course Misato is skeptical, who can accept this as a normal person.

"Otherwise, with the Shinji you know, can you really make so much money through your own talents? Shinji continued, "And you also know that once you reveal your real identity in D-NET, it can lead to death, how can a child bypass all kinds of traps and deceptions and successfully carry out various transactions?"

Misato couldn't refute it for a while, because according to the results of the previous investigation, Shinji had not been out of his original city for ten years, and his usual life trajectory was monotonous and regular, and there was no evidence of his participation in other criminal organizations.

"You guy, this is your true face, you're usually acting!" Misato is angry, if this is the case, she is the deceived party, and she still wants to take care of Shinji and go into his heart.

"I'm sorry, I also want to stay online for a long time, and Shinji will call me out when he encounters a problem that he can't solve, but it can only appear for a few dozen minutes at a time, no more than an hour at most. Of course, Shinji didn't confess it all.

"What kind of existence are you to Shinji?"

"I am the ideal personality he has created to use to avoid and solve problems for him. I am him, he is me, we are essentially one, but we have separate memories and personalities. ”

"The psychological test arranged by Ritsuko, did you do it?" Misato asked.

"That's right, Shinji doesn't like people prying inside him. Seeing that Misato was somewhat receptive, Shinji continued to fool.

"But it's his true intention to get close to Rei Ayaba, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

"The main purpose of my appearance today is not to talk about this, but to reveal to you information about the apostles. ”

"Oh, what do you know?" Misato is very interested, and at the moment Misato only knows that SEELE is the parent organization and financier of NERV, which was established to fight the Apostles, save humanity, and prevent the third shock.
