Dice In The Darkness: Cthulhu Calls

Chapter 183: The Gender-Changed Yasaka Mashiro

At this moment, another person walked out of the room, Yasaka Mashiro.

"I've already arranged for Mian Gu Lu to go to sleep, and Otonashi Takuya is taking a shower now. By the way, dealing with this long hair is really troublesome. I wonder how long it will take to dry," Yasaka Mashiro complained while drying her hair with a towel.

Yin En chuckled, teasing Yasaka Mashiro, "Yasaka Mashiro, isn't that the name of the male protagonist in that Island Nation anime? Are you planning to add Nyaruko to your harem?"

As mentioned before, Nyarlathotep had numerous incarnations, and in various fan creations, there were many additional forms. In a particular Island Nation anime, Nyarlathotep was transformed into Nyaruko, and the male protagonist of that anime was named Yasaka Mashiro.

"Oh, I knew Yasaka Mashiro sounded familiar, but I couldn't recall where," Watanabe Jiang exclaimed, slapping his forehead in a somewhat exaggerated manner.

Yasaka Mashiro sighed helplessly and said, "It's all because of this mod. My character card's original name was Maeda En, a security company instructor. Unexpectedly, the mod changed it to this, and the worst part is, I was originally a male character card. How did I end up being changed to a female character card!"

As Yasaka Mashiro became more agitated, Liu Xing hurriedly approached and covered her mouth with his hand to prevent her from waking up the neighbors with her loud voice, risking an early end to their Private Room time.

Soon, Yasaka Mashiro calmed down and said with resignation, "Well, I'm pretty desperate now. Suddenly becoming a girl, I still can't fully accept it mentally and physically. After all, I'm not some cross-dressing expert, and this pseudo-girl transformation is making me extremely uncomfortable."

"But you just took a shower with Mian Gu Lu, which is a big advantage. Although Mian Gu Lu is a bit clueless, the app should rate her above 80, making her a beauty pageant champion in real life. Of course, excluding those mysterious beauty contests in Hong Kong and the cosmic nations," Watanabe Jiang interrupted Yasaka Mashiro, wearing a sly smile.

Blushing, Yasaka Mashiro nodded and said, "Uh, that's true. Taking a shower with a girl openly is not bad. I now understand why there are so many gender-bending stories in novels lately."

Jokes aside, having both male and female players in the group was the best configuration. After all, certain locations and characters required specific genders to gather information, such as female bathhouses, and so on.

"Alright, let's not waste time. I've discovered an issue. The area where Chen Wenbin's house is located is south of the sewer region. Since the sewer's location is specifically marked, there must be something mysterious about that sewer area. When we talk about sewers, what comes to your minds?" Watanabe Jiang pointed at the map, speaking solemnly.

"Ghouls, the Ghoul's lair is in the southwest direction in the Rose Graveyard. But according to the information from Shiro Hana, there have been traces of Ghoul activity in many parks in Ziwu City. This indicates that Ghouls are using the sewer system for movement, as they can't just walk openly on the streets with their appearance," Liu Xing affirmed.

Watanabe Jiang nodded and said with a smile, "Exactly, Ghouls almost certainly use the sewers for movement. However, besides that, I suspect that this sewer area might be related to the Dark Willow Gang. In my character card's background, I have a friend who is a member of the Dark Willow Gang's underlings. I've asked him about it when we were at the hotel. After some indirect questioning, he mentioned that although the Dark Willow Gang's company is in the central business district, their headquarters and underground activities have always been in the southeast area of Ziwu City, which is where we are now."

Everyone exchanged glances, realizing that they unwittingly became neighbors with the Dark Willow Gang.

But Yin En was indifferent, saying, "As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. We are now hiding right under the Dark Willow Gang's nose, and they might not suspect us. If Dark Willow Gang really wants to find us, we won't be able to escape anyway, as it's already a Plot Encounter."

Yin En's words received nods from everyone. As the largest gang in Ziwu City, collaborating with the newly elected mayor, Dark Willow Gang could easily track them down if they wished, and there was no need for any checks; it would be an automatic success.

"So, should we take some time to explore the sewer area?" Yoh Asakura asked.

Liu Xing shook his head, answering, "We can't go to the sewers for now. We don't have a reason to go there yet. We can't just say we have a clogged toilet and need to check the sewers. Besides, entering the sewers might lead to a battle. Whether it's against Ghouls or Dark Willow Gang members, our chances of winning are currently low. Moreover, it could attract unwanted attention. We might shift from being proactive to being reactive."

"But if we can't go to the sewers, we still have many places to explore. Aside from the Rose Graveyard and the shrine, we can also go to the education district. When Yin En went to Ziwu City High School last time, there were three different choices, indicating three important NPCs in Ziwu City High School that we need to encounter."

"Next is Ziwu City Television. The urban legends about Killer Demon and Ghoul are escalating. I believe those reporters, for the sake of ratings, will investigate Killer Demon and Ghoul. We should be able to gather some information, maybe even expose some scandals about the newly elected mayor of Ziwu City, and use that to access the mayor's storyline."

"Following that is Yin En's exclusive Sawada Family storyline. Although Yin En doesn't want to admit the marriage to Ze Tian Yinyin, you can visit Sawada Family's company, meet Ze Tian Yinyin's father, and maybe get a lot of information and assistance from him. After all, the Sawada Family is influential, and they should know everything about Ziwu City."

"In addition, I think we can dig deeper into the clues at Ziwu City Library, especially the curator Kuroba Naoki. Since he has such a deep understanding of King Tindalos, he's not an ordinary NPC." Watanabe Jiang continued, pointing at the map for analysis.

However, when Ziwu City Library was mentioned, Liu Xing thought of that oil painting.
