My name is Klein, and I am an ordinary Backlund private detective.
My daily routine is: drink sweet iced tea, eat Dishi pie, read the newspaper, occasionally help the lady find the cat, help the businessman check the accounts, and work hard to save money to pay off the mortgage.
Until that day, a lunatic wearing a monocle knocked on my door and claimed to be my "assistant".
I recognize him, he is Amon, the legendary "Angel of Time", the god of fraud, the top boss of the thieves, famous for treating the whole world as a playground and everyone as a toy.
Now, this big boss said that he wants to team up with me to solve the case.
My heart collapsed at the time: "Wait a minute, did I get the wrong script? Shouldn't we meet on an epic occasion that concerns the survival of the world, and then fight to the death? Why did the painting style change to 221B Baker Street?!"
Amon's reason is very "sufficient": Backlund has been too bored recently and needs some "games"; and checking some "little troubles" with me, an "interesting being", can not only kill time, but also be a perfect disguise.
I believe him.
But the problem is, I can't seem to beat him or get rid of him.
As a result, the style of my detective career suddenly changed:
When investigating the case of the faceless corpse, my assistant commented: "The technique is rough and lacks artistry."
Asking occult enthusiasts, my assistant was looking through ancient books: "Tsk, there are so many mistakes and it's misleading."
Being followed by the official Beyonders, my assistant waved to the pigeons in the sky: "Fly slower, come and take a rest when you are tired?"
He also made a bet with me that he could make the murderer surrender before three o'clock in the afternoon.
The bet is my secret.
…Is it too late for me to resign and go back to Tingen?
In short, this is a former Nighthawks detective who is forced to team up with the God of Deception. In the fog, smoke and conspiracy of Backlund, while trying to solve the case and keep his vest, he is complaining madly in his heart and trying to figure out what "interesting" script his "teammates" are planning - a not-so-serious detective story.
(Klein: Where's the mystery, horror, and epic feeling you promised?! Amon: Don't worry about those details, my dear detective, the game has just begun~)
Purpose: Praise the trust between people and the pursuit of truth
