It is human nature to watch the excitement, and the place where the crowd gathers most densely is the scene of the incident.

I saw a group of people coming out of the room gathered in front of the elevator door. A woman in waitress clothes was squatting in front of her. It seemed that her scream just now broke the tranquility of the night. At this moment, her face was covered with tears of fear.

You follow the direction of her gaze.

The elevator door was open. A male body was lying on the ground, face up with a big hole in his head. Red and white liquid was flowing out and spreading to the ground.

"!"

Because he was half outside the elevator and half inside, the elevator door could not be closed and continued to make a beeping reminder sound.

You cast your gaze upon the man's face, and for a moment you feel that he looks familiar, and then you realize that he is the man that Matsuda asked you to check on before - an old member of the Tenneng Cult!

The person who died was actually him... Was this a coincidence?

Your mind races, and you let out a slow breath, just as the sound of sirens from downstairs pours in through the open window.

Now, there is no peace in this night.

The police arrived quickly, the scene was sealed off, and the relevant personnel began to work busily and silently. The passengers on this floor were arranged to move to the two floors below, and you took your packed luggage to your new room.

However, not long after, someone knocked on your door. A young man in police uniform stood outside. Seeing your surprised face, he shook his head and said, "I heard from Detective Maori that you have good computer skills. Can you help me?"

...I think Conan probably mentioned that. You complained in your heart, and a faint smile appeared on your face: "It's my honor to be able to provide some help. I'm happy to help."

Following the young police officer to the office in the lobby, you are not surprised to see familiar faces when you push the door open - Uncle Mori and Conan. What is a little surprising is to see Matsuda standing on the side and Igarashi leaning against the wall and yawning.

"Brother Watanabe is really amazing—" Conan praised you when he met you, and said, "It will be no problem!"

Matsuda Jinpei also turned to you: "Sorry for the trouble." He smiled, "I didn't expect Watanabe-san to be a computer expert."

You maintained a mask of smile: "I'm not an expert. In fact, I only know a little bit... I'll try my best."

The strange thing is... if the comics are followed, this man named Igarashi should also be an amazing technician.

——Then why not let him, a policeman, do the job directly, but instead ask you, an outsider, to do it?

With thoughts swirling in your mind, you focus on the task at hand.

Sitting at your computer desk, the screen shows a surveillance video recording - this has been tampered with by you, so it is naturally an overwritten version. What you need to do now is to restore it.

This is not difficult for you, after all, you programmed the code, and every string of data is clearly imprinted in your mind. The trouble is to restore it in an excerpt-to skip the part that exposes Beichuan's whereabouts, and try to only show the video related to the person who died in tonight's case.

...This requires some tips.

Except for Igarashi, who you learned about from the comics, there is probably no one present who knows how to use computers.

So you pretended to be casual and adjusted the position of the bench, blocking Igarashi's sight with most of your body, then lowered your head and started to operate.

You zoomed the screen so that only you could see it clearly, and then you selectively restored the surveillance video. Your nimble fingers tapped on the keyboard, and the people on the other side were also busy discussing and analyzing the case.

“——Done.” You stopped typing and looked back with a smile.

"Ah! That's great!" The young police officer jumped forward with a look of joy on his face, "This way we can find the murderer right away."

I'm afraid it's not that easy, Conan hasn't appeared yet. You glanced at Conan and then said, "I just fast-forwarded and watched it again while I was recovering... At the time and place where the crime was likely committed, a total of three people walked through the corridor."

It appears, choose one of the three classics!

"There are no surveillance cameras around or inside the elevator, so we can't lock it down based on that."

“Well, indeed, there were surveillance cameras originally… but they were removed last month.” The hotel manager whispered.

"Huh? Why do we need to tear it down?" Uncle Maori, who thought everything was over, jumped up and said, "These two places should still be monitored."

"It's because several customers have complained... saying they don't want to be photographed in the elevator when they return to their room from the swimming pool..."

"Hey, what kind of excuse is that? Who would change clothes in the elevator?"

"Ah, maybe... But, there are so many comments. We are a business hotel, so we still have to listen to our customers."

"…" There might be some inside information in this matter. You thought to yourself, and saw Matsuda with slightly curly hair also deep in thought.

If it was murder, then the evil intentions of this former member of the Tenneng Sect must have been planned a month ago or even earlier.

Seeing that Uncle Maori was about to continue arguing with the management about this issue, Conan hurried forward and said, "Hey, uncle, should we go to the relevant floor to take a look at the scene now?" Conan smiled and looked up, "Then find the three suspects and interrogate them."

"Hmph! I don't need you to remind me, little brat." Uncle Maori snorted, "Let's go! We'll set off now!"

You watched them interacting as usual with a confused look in your mind, and when you came back to your senses, you found that Igarashi was already standing in front of the computer desk.

"Eh...? These little boxes are too small, aren't they? Can't they be enlarged?" He looked curious, and his hands seemed to accidentally press a few buttons on the keyboard -

"!"

"Igarashi! Don't move!" The young police officer shouted immediately after seeing what was happening from a distance. He quickly stepped forward and said, "These videos are important evidence—"

Igarashi raised his hand: "Oh, sorry, I'm just a little curious." His hand, which was supported behind his back, seemed to press on the keyboard unconsciously.

"Ah, you happened to me again--!" The young police officer was so scared that his heart almost flew out of his chest. He was worried that the other party had accidentally deleted the video.

"Ah, okay... I'll stay away from you then." Igarashi took a few steps forward this time and completely left the computer desk. A new scene appeared on the screen.

"Huh? What is this... a hidden surveillance video?

Your pupils dilate slightly, your heart beats like a drum in your chest, and your adrenaline surges.

The other person's misty blue eyes, mixed with a hint of smile and confusion, seemed to glance at you unintentionally. He walked slowly past you, his grayish semi-long hair passing by your sight.

“……” You try to calm yourself down and focus your attention on the new scene on the screen.

The figure of Kitagawa Maaki is briefly seen above.

The buttons the opponent just pressed were definitely not pressed randomly! The opponent's superb skills allowed him to break through the already lax cover in a few steps.

...But fortunately, in this video, he was just passing by and did nothing at the moment.

This makes you feel a little relieved.

"I actually found the hidden file. What? You guys are as lucky as ever." The young police officer said jokingly, "Next time I don't need to go to the temple to worship you. I'll come to worship you directly."

Igarashi yawned exaggeratedly: "No, it's so annoying..."

"I was just joking. How could I really worship you?"

"But even if you are lucky, you must not touch these physical evidences next time!" The young police officer looked at the indifferent expression on the face of the person in front of him and waved his hand, "Hey, hey... I'm telling you, are you listening?"

"Hey, I'm listening."

Matsuda waved his hands aside and said, "Okay, let's watch the new video first."

You watch the interaction between the people in front of you, and you realize that this Igarashi's ability seems to be unknown to others. He is hiding his ability, and no one except those close to him knows that he is a computer expert.

Why... You narrowed your eyes.

Seeing everyone rushing over to watch the new video, you quickly explained with an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I'm still limited in my ability and haven't recovered completely."

"It's okay. This matter has nothing to do with you. I'm grateful that you are willing to help." Matsuda Jinpei comforted you.

"It's okay!" The young police officer quickly reviewed the video. "There's nothing important in this video... It has nothing to do with this murder case. Let's go find the three suspects first—"

"Wait a minute." Matsuda said in a deep voice. He held the mouse with his bony hands and dragged the progress bar back a little bit until Kitagawa Makabe's face appeared in the video. The enlarged screen could see his sharp shark teeth faintly exposed.

“……” Your lowered fingers curled slightly.

"What's wrong?" The young police officer leaned over again and looked at the video. "Do you know this guy?"

Matsuda's expression showed no sign of change. He just stared at the screen: "...I've seen it before. Once."

Before the young police officer could speak, he had already stood up and left the table: "But according to the time period and location, he should have nothing to do with this murder case - let's go and handle this case first and listen to the explanations of the three suspects separately."

"..." Although on the surface you still have the same gentle smile as usual, only you know that the cold sweat on your back has soaked your inner shirt.

...It's too dangerous. Fortunately, Kitagawa Makoto hasn't done anything yet.

If you were discovered... you knew that nothing good would happen to you - whether it was the police or the organization that dealt with you.

Next time... you must not let your guard down. You now fully understand the dangerous situation you are in. All coding must be done with rigor and not be simplistic.

As for that Igarashi...he...

You put on a smile and walked out of the room with the others.

The author has something to say:

I was blown up by thunder, the little cuties are too enthusiastic~ I tried hard to squeeze out the time and coded it out_(:з)∠)_The next door is still three days a week, and it will be updated at 6 pm~

Below is the character design of Igarashi ww

【Igarashi Bunsen】

He has hazy blue eyes, greyish semi-long hair, and is very handsome. He has a widow's peak, and every time girls look forward to him flirting with Liu Haier.

A computer expert, he appears to be an ordinary police social animal, but in fact he is a senior police officer responsible for maintaining the safety line of undercover agents. He looks like an office clerk but in fact he has high martial arts skills.

He said that he became a policeman not for a sense of justice, but simply because this profession makes it more likely that he will meet an opponent who is interested in him.

He usually looks lazy, but becomes particularly energetic when he encounters a difficult problem or an evenly matched opponent. He is lively, steady, and happy. He looks lazy, but he is actually very reliable (people who know him well know that he is very reliable, while people who don’t know him well think that he is lucky).

In the eyes of ordinary people, he is a lazy policeman who always relies on luck to solve cases. In fact, he is a real boss.

All the excitement points are added to the calculator. Because it is boring to have no opponents at ordinary times, if you encounter a potential stock in the seedling stage, you will pay more attention to it, and secretly let it go at the critical moment (after weighing the opponent in your mind, you are still under control)

He never knew who his father was. He thought that if he could decipher the program code left by his mother before she died, he might be able to know the truth.

"I have no feelings for the man who never showed up. I just want to know who he is and then laugh at him at his grave."
