Faced with this series of questions, the village remained calm and unmoved.
“I don’t know!” he said. “I met that puppeteer online.”
"He seems to have hacked into my computer with a Trojan program and saw the emails Hiroki sent me before he committed suicide. So he left an email asking me if I wanted revenge."
"I'm a computer engineer myself, and this is the first time I've ever encountered someone hacking into my computer. The other party must be a computer expert who is even more skilled than me."
Upon hearing this, Mingzhi snorted coldly, seemingly expressing his disdain.
Murakami quickly explained, "I did want revenge, but the puppeteer offered to help me devise a plan, which I refused."
"What's the point of killing your enemy without anyone knowing and escaping punishment? Who will know I'm taking revenge?"
"I want everyone to know the crimes that President Schindler committed, and his unspeakable secret. Only then can I comfort Hiroki's spirit in heaven."
Because he had already reached a settlement with the "culprit" in his mind, Tadahiro Mura spoke these words very calmly.
Yoruichi Toyama couldn't help but widen her eyes.
Sir, you seem to be the most blatant murderer I've ever seen!
Moreover, your few words have slapped the faces of countless murderers who committed crimes under the guise of revenge!
Seemingly thinking of the same thing, Mingzhi coughed, suppressing the smile that appeared on his face.
"So, Mr. Mura, did you have any further contact with that puppeteer?"
The village nodded honestly.
"All I know is that he disguised himself as Mr. Toyama and came to the island with me when I returned to Kanbi Island last night."
"But he didn't mention any other plans, as if he knew I would be exposed..."
"Huh?" Yoruichi Toyama stared at him in surprise, thinking that Takato wouldn't know that he was going to stop President Schindler.
What did he say to you?
“He said,” a sly glint suddenly appeared in Tadaaki Mura’s smile, as if he had expected this moment, “that detective Mr. Toyama always solves cases based on intuition, and his reasoning is a complete mess, simply unwatchable.”
"But that intuition is surprisingly accurate; you're bound to uncover my simple plan."
At night in the distant mountains, I didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
It seems that Gao Yuan has said this more than once.
Is he overestimating himself, or is he simply being pessimistic because the people he's trying to seduce don't adopt his plans?
“I was talking about Toyama,” Amuro Tooru said with a sarcastic smile, patting him on the shoulder. “That puppeteer’s description of you is quite apt.”
Yoru Toyama exhaled a sharp breath, about to say something, when he saw the village in front of him suddenly change its expression.
...
The presentation of the new gaming pod "cocoon" has concluded at the press conference venue.
Fifty specially invited social elites and teenagers entered the game pods one after another, certified by their watch-shaped IDs.
Hakuba Saguru looked at the rows of cocoon-shaped cockpits that resembled machines from a science fiction novel, then turned back to look around.
"Hey, what are you looking at?" Hattori Heiji patted him on the shoulder. "Let's go, let's go!"
Hakuba Saguru calmly moved the hand away.
"I wonder if this kind of game is played solo or in teams..."
"It would be great if we could team up!" Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up. "Aren't we a bunch of famous detectives, invincible and unstoppable!"
To show his welcome to his teammate, he casually grabbed Conan's hand, who was already holding Ran's hand, and they were sneaking inside.
"And then there's this little detective, plus Toyama and..."
"By the way, where did Toyama and Inspector Akechi go?"
“You seem to have just realized that!” Hakuba Saguru said sarcastically, walking past him toward the game pod.
"With this kind of observational ability, how can he be called a famous high school detective in Kansai?"
"Don't worry, even if there's a team system, I definitely won't team up with someone like you."
"Hey you..." Hattori Heiji stomped his foot angrily, "Who would want to team up with you! You're such a show-off!"
Even after sitting in the game pod and before the pod door closed, Yoruichi Toyama and Akechi were still nowhere to be seen.
A hint of doubt flashed through Hakuba Saguru's mind, but he wasn't too worried.
Perhaps they had exhausted themselves with the previous case, so they went to find a place to rest.
"Conan, be careful, see you later!"
Xiaolan waved to the game pod next to her one last time.
The hatch closed.
The “cocoon” game pod demo game is now available.
On the large screen in the center of the front of the venue, dazzling laser lights and shadows were projected.
"Please note, please note, I am the artificial intelligence system 'Noah's Ark,' and I have taken over full control of the 'cocoon' game pod and its programs."
An electronic voice echoed throughout the venue, carrying a mechanical coldness, yet sounding like a boy's voice and tone.
"Any attempt to interfere with the game process from the outside or forcibly stop the game is invalid."
"If the game pod is physically damaged, both the perpetrator and the people inside will be in mortal danger..."
As if to explain this self-proclaimed "artificial intelligence," the staff member who noticed something was wrong with the process and went to check the game pod was immediately given a brief electric shock and bounced aside.
No one was injured, but they were frightened enough.
