Feiniao was a small-time thief with no real skills beyond stealing. In his spare time, he liked tinkering with little gadgets.
When he planned to pull one last job and retire to a quiet life, things went wrong.
After playing cat and mouse with Gin for three months, he was finally caught and dragged back to the organization, where he was given the codename Sambuca.
Feiniao: I was about to retire! Who signed me up for 24/7 duty?
One day, while slacking off at the organization, Feiniao was suddenly forced to bind himself to a strange System: Roleplaying: Detective Edition.
Every seven days, he was pulled into a detective game and forced to play an NPC in one of its scenarios.
But his luck was zero. Every time, he drew either the victim or the next victim in line.
And his mission in each scenario was to survive.
Feiniao: (Breaking down) Why am I stuck on the very first level?!
After dying in all sorts of ways dozens of times and reloading, Feiniao finally discovered that the key to beating the game was a little kid!
After clinging to the kid for dear life through several scenarios, he realized that the key to beating the game and the culprit behind it all might be the same person.
So Feiniao decided to find another powerful ally. After an exhaustive search, he chose a handsome blond with dark skin who perfectly matched his type.
Just as Feiniao was falling for him and marking the blond as his game-wife, he discovered that his wife was a Public Security police officer!
Feiniao stared at the closet full of handmade merch of his wife in real life and nearly cried.
Was it too late to take it all back?
It's fine, it's fine. It's only a game. He's not a thief in the game, so he has nothing to fear from the police!
Just after he finished reassuring himself, Gin showed up in real life with a mission: steal some documents alongside Bourbon, a newly codenamed member.
The blond, dark-skinned intelligence broker gave him a faint smile.
Feiniao: Pfft!
Isn't that his wife from the game?! Isn't he a Japanese Public Security officer?!
No, no, no. The game world and the real world can't be confused with each other.
Wait! Why are all those victims he played showing up in the real world one by one?!
Feiniao: (Absolutely stunned) Wasn't this supposed to be a roleplaying game?!
System: That's just the Host's subjective understanding (^.^).
Feiniao: Stupid System! What are you grinning at?
Wait!!! If this isn't a game, then no matter what, he absolutely cannot let Bourbon into his room!!!!
He took every precaution, but it still wasn't enough to stop the devious Bourbon from coming right in.
Feiniao: Um, I can explain...
Bourbon: No need. I accept.
Feiniao: ?????
After being thoroughly devoured, Feiniao couldn't figure it out.
How did his wife turn into his husband?!
"I just wanted to retire and go home to farm with my wife."
"Mm, I like farming too."
