Rose Estate.

As the name suggests, it is a manor full of roses.

It is located in the middle of nowhere, almost isolated from the rest of the world.

And there is only one path that can enter, and the two sides of the manor have spent a huge amount of money to build a cliff more than 20 meters high.

But when Kashima Akira came to the inside of the manor, he found that there were almost all kinds of roses in the world, because there was a sign at the door that listed the main categories of more than 200 kinds of roses.

Other than that, almost all the decoration here is based on roses.

It can be seen that every grass and tree here is carefully cared for by the owner here, or delicate, or bewitching and dazzling, or pink and flawless, at this time it is August, and it is also the last month of rose blooming, and the petals are crowded one after another, and the layers are as bright as various colors of jade agate.

Akira Kashima suddenly remembered a sentence:

"Only roses can bloom like roses."

When he came to the gate of the manor, there was no one to greet him, and looking at the signs dotted with roses on both sides, Kashima Akira went all the way to the only two-story banquet hall in the rose manor.

At this time, there were already three people in the banquet hall talking to each other.

But to be precise, one of them should be talking to the other two, because this active person is not pretending to be in any way.

Dressed in a valuable white straight suit, with a trimmed red rose on his chest, and a valuable Patek Philippe 5146R-001 on his fair wrist.

Of course, this kind of dress is not eye-catching in Kashima's eyes.

A watch on his body is worth more than 4 million, and he is still sitting here and taking the initiative to talk to people, this kind of behavior is either really stupid or really smart.

Kashima Akira looked at the dresses of the other two, and he could understand why the rich second generation of this sassy bag would take the initiative to communicate with him.

Sitting across from the young man were a man and a woman, but judging from the distance and details of the two people's seats, the two of them did not know each other.

The man wrapped himself very tightly, with a black loose hooded sweatshirt on his upper body, he couldn't see what his figure was, the wide brim of the sweatshirt directly covered his forehead, and he also wore a white mask on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes.

This shape is placed in general film and television dramas, and it is generally the final boss.

And the woman next to him was dressed a little revealingly, revealing a beautiful figure, but what attracted Kashima Akira more was the other party's strong muscles.

It's the kind of loli face that you can often see on the Internet before.,But the arms and legs muscles are abnormally developed.。

The woman's face is only symbolically wearing a masquerade mask, but Kashima Akira doesn't recognize who the other party is yet.

Anyway, both of them look very weird.

These people have their own characteristics, Kashima Akira looks a little ordinary at this time, he is completely dressed as a student, and his face is just wearing the mask of a circus clown, that's all.

"There's a new guy here, my name is Takashi Tsunada, this mysterious gentleman is called Q, and this beautiful and sexy lady is called Rose, although it's a pity, these are code names, but it doesn't matter, does it? Okay, newcomer, your name...... Or what is the code name? Takashi Tsuneta asked with interest.

Kashima thought for a moment, and then said in a different voice that he had always wanted to try in his mind.

"Joker."

"Wow! Clown! You can't be the criminal clown wanted on the Internet, right? Tsuneta Takashi's expression was suddenly a little exaggerated, although the content of the words was surprise, but the expression in his eyes was completely indifferent.

The same is true when the other party was talking just now.

Perhaps in Takashi Tsunada's mind, this transaction is completely just a transaction.

The corners of Kashima Akira's mouth hidden under the mask pulled up a trace of curvature, he knew the name Takashi Tsunada, how could he not know.

When he was in Mile before, after he obtained the information of Cheng Xiangxiong, he included this name.

Ken Tonata's son.

A standard second-generation rich person to outsiders, but he is not as simple as he seems on the surface, and often helps his father with some affairs.

"Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Rich Second Generation, I'm sorry you answered wrong, there's more than a clown in this world, he's him, I'm me, if there's a chance...... Well...... I'd love to meet him. "Akira Kashima's acting skills have also reached the intermediate level, so there will be almost no omissions in acting, at least these people can't see it.

"That's a pity."

During the conversation, Kashima's eyes under the mask were also watching the micro-movements of several people.

And he basically guessed the occupations of several people.

Tsuneta Takashi naturally didn't need to say much, the other party didn't think about hiding himself at all.

And the man who looked a bit like the boss behind the scenes was disguised again, but some micro-movements still revealed his identity.

I like to stare at other people's details, such as fingers, eyes, shoulders, sitting posture...... It shows that he has a strong ability to investigate, at least he has been in the system, or has engaged in a profession similar to that of a detective, but that should only be history.

The woman...... Although he has a great physique, he is muscular, and he is very defensive and aggressive, and he sits forward with some forwards, indicating that he is not just a female muscle enthusiast, but at least has been associated with martial arts such as karate or boxing, which require both skill and strength.

Immediately after that, the three of them were tentatively chatting with each other, but among them, the ones who wanted to hide themselves the most were Akira Kashima and another masked man.

As he spoke, the others also arrived one after another.

To Kashima's surprise, there are still a few people he is familiar with.

Hasegawa, Yume Lily and announcer.

The appearance of two knight members did not surprise Akira Kashima, anyway, this is also a game set by the knight organization.

The lupine lily is easy to recognize, and the sound is known as soon as you hear it.

As for the announcer, Akira Kashima found the identity information of the other party on the Internet after the clown said some clues about the other party.

Although the announcer also hid his face and disguised his voice, this could not escape Akira Kashima's intermediate voice change.

The most surprising thing for Kashima Akira was Hasegawa, he didn't know what other secrets Hasegawa had been held by the Knight Organization, but the appearance of this detective made Kashima Akira feel that this trade was gradually starting to be fun.

In the end, all the members arrived, a total of ten people.

After introducing themselves to each other, Kashima Akira also had a rough idea of the identities of several people.

Takashi Tsunada, undisguised, is the only son of a Udd-party leader and is currently an officer of the Uygmin-Party.

Ichiro Hasegawa, the detective, wore a wig, a metal mask, wore a hip-hop costume that was a little out of place with him, had a shaved beard, did not identify himself, and called himself a fox.

Muscular woman, slightly covering the face above half of the nose, should be a sanda or boxing coach, the kind with a certain reputation, someone should be exposed in the future, and currently calls herself a rose.

The man in the sweatshirt, suspected of being a criminal investigator or detective, is relatively tightly covered, and he can only see these at present, calling himself Q.

Yuri, a member of the knights, code name is currently unknown, a student, dressed in a kimono and a pure white mask, calling herself Yuriko.

Sakai two-seater, a member of the knights, a code name announcer, painted with heavy makeup, and the rest of the normal clothes, using a false voice, others still can't see anything, claiming to be a voice actor.

In addition, there is also a person wearing a pumpkin head mask, also wearing a black robe, but you can see that the other party's fingers are slender, the bones are distinct, male, but there is an obvious callus on the left side of the first section of the middle finger of the left hand, it should be engaged in literature-related work, but it should be full-time, claiming to be a writer.

There is also a woman, a simple paper bag on her head, wearing professional clothes, sharp eyes, fast speech but clear rhythm and clear order, with a certain sense of superiority, should be a reporter, self-proclaimed reporter.

The ninth person is strong, the stock price is lenient, the speed of speech is slow, giving people a sense of peace, the body is very clean, and there should be a wig on his head, according to Kashima Akira's observation, the other party should be a monk, but the other party calls himself Fahai, which makes Kashima Akira feel very confused.

Finally, there is Akira Kashima, a student dressed up with a clown mask on his face.

After a while, no one came back, and Kashima guessed that everyone should have arrived.

Takashi Tsunata, Hasegawa (detective), Yuriri, announcer, former criminal investigator, sanda or boxing coach, writer, journalist, monk (Hokai), Akira Kashima (clown).

The knight should already know his identity, and he also knows that he has a certain amount of makeup and voice changing abilities, and he also has the identity information of everyone here, so it is easy to tell which one is him.

Maybe they also know that they can guess the identities of Hasegawa and Yudou Lily.

But that's where the fuss goes.

The knight thought that he was on the third floor, and Kashima Akira was on the second floor, but he didn't know that Kashima Akira was already standing on the sixth floor.

After the personnel arrived, it could be seen that the reporter wanted to speak, but Tonata Zhigui still spoke first: "There shouldn't be anyone coming, right, what about the organizer?" Why didn't the organizers come out? Do you want us to trade directly here? ”

"That's right! And there is no signal here, and mobile phones are not available, what exactly are the organizers trying to do? The reporter hurriedly rushed in to express his suspicions.

The others didn't speak for the time being, obviously watching and seeing, after all, if you say too much, you will lose.

But at this moment, there was a loud noise outside the manor, and then the dust and smoke that were visible to the naked eye rose.

That direction!

That's where they came from.

The road is broken!

This means that the only way they have to go outside no longer exists.

And there is no signal here, there is no contact with the outside world.

And when the outside world comes here, it will take at least one to two days.

Although the second text message said that someone had leaked the information, Kashima was still skeptical that someone would be able to come to the rescue in a short period of time.

At the same time, negative news about two people began to appear all over the Internet in the outside world, and once these news were verified, it was enough to cause a devastating blow to the main owner of the news.

And the real clown also began his crime again.

After seeing these news, combined with the news they had seen on the Internet before, and confirming the problem at Rose Manor, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department was going to send someone there.

But before the order was issued, their call to the police was almost blown up.

Hundreds of people called themselves clowns and threatened to blow up a building or kill someone.

Dozens of people also marched directly on the streets with banners, accusing the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department of failing to handle the case some time ago.

Finally, some people called the police to say where they found the dead and where they had been robbed.

There are also those who report that someone is XD, who reports the red light district, who reports officials, who report their bosses, and who report spies.

Varied.

With so many cases, the entire Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department was directly thrown into a hurry, and various departments were touched, the manpower of the criminal division and the public security department was directly emptied, and other departments were instantly overwhelmed.

In the end, the Tokyo police director had no choice, so after asking the cyber security department to investigate, he found out the seriousness of the matter and directly asked the surrounding cities to come and help.

So naturally, no one will come to disturb the Rose Manor.

Compared with the chaotic state of the outside world, the Rose Manor was much more peaceful except for the explosion just now, which caused them some panic.

At the very least, they can sit quietly and ask who initiated the deal.

However, just after they had discussed to no avail, a synthesized sound suddenly occurred in the banquet hall on the first floor where they were.

"Welcome to the Rose Manor, everyone here has their own secrets that they absolutely want to hide, this is also a trade fair, I, as the organizer, will hide among you, but I will not reveal my identity, so from now on, you can trade with the people around you, the content of the transaction can be your secret, it can be the most precious thing you think you are, of course, it can also be someone else's secret but has a certain value.

The fair lasts for 48 hours, and there is enough food in the kitchen and a cosy room upstairs.

But your every move will be exposed to my surveillance, and of course that's my right as the organizer, and I'll keep a count every hour, and if someone doesn't make a deal, or doesn't show enough sincerity, I'm going to kill that person......

Moreover, I think it is necessary to remind everyone that each of you is carrying at least one human life, and at most there are dozens.

Finally, welcome.

Come to Rose Manor. ”

When the voice fell, everyone immediately became wary of each other.

They had no doubt about the veracity of what the voice was saying, for they had come for their own secrets.

Akira Kashima listened to this rule, and suddenly felt a little familiar.

So he subconsciously looked at the wall of the doorway, where there was a wooden board that he had been ignoring before, and on it seemed to be a nursery rhyme.
