A Genuine Criminal Isn't a Beautiful Tragic Hero

*Paragraph comments are now unrestricted. Come check out my new stories! “Niou-kun Wants to Become the Tennis World’s Great Demon King” updates daily, and “The Righteous Light of Beika Town Makes a Grand Entrance” is building up its backlog. Arisugawa Tsuki is a novelist and a part-time member of the Black Organization. He used to be an executive of the Port Mafia. It wasn’t until his book upgraded into a forum that he learned his world was a detective manga, the elementary school kid who often came over to the neighbor’s house to play games was the protagonist of the world, the pink-haired guy next door was an FBI ace, and the liquor company where he worked part-time was the manga’s big boss. As for its members, they were either watered down or spoiled... Arisugawa Tsuki: ...This organization is doomed. If no one knows how to be the boss, then let me do it! After plenty of thought and careful planning, Arisugawa Tsuki decided to slack off on missions to trip up the organization and poach its people, while feeding information to the protagonist’s group. He would carry on the will of the Mafia boss and make sure the previous boss’s death wasn’t in vain! Just as he expected, at the final showdown, the boss, betrayed by undercover agents at every turn and left with his foundations torn out, lost utterly. The “Organization” was completely wiped out, and the manga reached its perfect ending. Meanwhile, the only winner, the new boss, Arisugawa Tsuki, was ready to take the Organization and his second-in-command, Gin, and disappear into the distance... Except they couldn’t get away?? The heroes: Mr. Arisugawa, in gratitude for your outstanding contributions in our fight against the Organization, we’ve arranged a special witness protection program for you. From now on, you can live in the sunlight! * In the forum’s eyes, Arisugawa Tsuki had struggled through blood and mud since childhood, endured inhuman torment without ever giving up hope, and never let his convictions waver, even with his memories gone. Though surrounded by darkness, his heart faced the light. In the undercover agents’ eyes, Arisugawa Tsuki’s unshakable convictions were a lighthouse guiding them through the darkness, so they wouldn’t lose hope for the future. In the eyes of some Organization members, Arisugawa Tsuki was an outsider who didn’t fit in, a light they longed for but didn’t dare reach toward. Arisugawa Tsuki: I don’t know how to explain it. I really didn’t do anything... Also known as “Three Sentences That Made Both the Red and Black Sides Fall Head Over Heels for Me” and “I’m Obviously a Big Bad, So Why Do They All Think I’m Bearing the Weight of Sin as I Struggle Forward? What Did I Do Wrong?”... Reader’s Guide: 1. CP: Gin. It isn’t in the blurb, but it’s really sweet! 2. The Academy Police Group rescue has been completed.
