Chapter 253: The organization lost information again?
Conan's eyes lit up, and he accurately grasped his favorite keyword: "Puzzle?"
Compared to him, Jiang Xia's reaction was much more reserved. Well, it was mainly because he was calm, and it had nothing to do with having read the script beforehand.
Dr. Agasa was very pleased with the younger generation's support: "In that forum, everyone communicated with each other using virtual IDs. So when they arrived at the scene, no one knew each other. The organizer would take the opportunity to blend in with the participants and sometimes dress up as the 'Night Baron' to create a series of events.
"Solving the mystery means finding the host who is hiding among us during these three days and two nights."
When Haibara Ai heard the word "Dark Night Baron", she remembered something and paused slightly.
Conan also responded to "Dark Night Baron": "Isn't this a character in my father's novel... So the organizer is actually a mystery novel lover, and this is a gathering for mystery lovers?"
Dr. Agasa shook his head: "My old friend said that the first person to expose the identity of the organizer will not only be able to travel for free, but more importantly, will be able to get a virus called 'Night Baron' as a prize."
When Haibara Ai heard about this virus, her face changed completely.
In her impression, "Dark Night Baron" was developed by the organization to encrypt data. If the data is opened in a computer outside the organization, the virus will destroy all the data in the computer. If the computer is connected to the Internet at the time, the virus will also send the location of the computer to the organization.
I heard that a few years ago, when Dark Night Baron was first developed, a group of programmers from the Ministry of Information released this virus in order to test it and make some research funds, allowing it to continuously invade the computers of major companies.
The test results are quite promising, and all businesses are helpless against this virus.
It was then put into official use.
The testing experience that year also became a legend - this virus was elusive and unstoppable, so people gave it a villain name, called "Dark Night Baron".
The programmers in the organization thought the name sounded good, so the virus was officially named "Dark Night Baron".
This powerful virus is very useful whether it is used for profit or research. So there must be people who covet it in this "Mysterious Journey to Izu".
In addition, Haibara Ai felt that there might be members of the organization who rushed here after hearing the news - after all, if the organizer really had the "Dark Night Baron" in his hands, then rounding it off, this could also be considered as the organization's lost information, and the organization would most likely come to check.
...Unless there is no one in the organization who visits the forum, that post will not be seen.
Anyway, for this reason, when the professor happily said that he would give the "Izu Mysterious Journey" quota to Jiang Xia and Conan, Huiyuan Ai subconsciously retorted: "No!"
The two people who were about to agree were stunned and looked at her in confusion.
Haibara Ai met their gaze, paused for a moment, and temporarily swallowed back what she wanted to say.
You can tell Jiang Xia and Conan about the organization's affairs.
But you can't say it in front of both of them at the same time.
Haibara Ai remembered that in the eyes of Conan and Dr. Agasa, Jiang Xia not only had nothing to do with the organization, he didn't even know that there was such a mysterious organization.
Moreover, Conan is still trying to prevent Jiang Xia from knowing about the organization, fearing that Jiang Xia will follow in his footsteps, or feel powerless and desperate because of the existence of such a huge dark organization around him.
Every time Huiyuan Ai thought of this, her eyes couldn't help but twitch: Oh, stupid outdated detective, Jiang Xia wouldn't be as impulsive as him. And Jiang Xia didn't care about the organization's shady actions at all, it was good enough that he didn't help...
So Haibara Ai didn't say it directly.
Instead, he waited until after dinner before finding an opportunity to explain the reason to both of them separately.
In fact, she didn't want to tell Conan, but Conan's thirst for knowledge was too strong. Haibara Ai was really afraid that if she didn't say anything, Conan would rush directly to the scene of the Izu Mysterious Journey, and then he would be unlucky enough to meet the members of the organization and be captured, and then implicate Dr. Agasa, her, and Jiang Xia next door...
However, after saying this, the two high school detectives still decided to go.
This was not the result that Haibara Ai expected, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was not unexpected - Jiang Xia did not have much sense of belonging to the organization, but he did not seem to be afraid of the organization. If he just wanted to travel and solve puzzles, he would not avoid the place just because there were people from the organization there.
...Not to mention Conan, this guy usually likes to stare at anyone with a fierce face and wearing black clothes when he sees them on the street. Now that he has the opportunity to contact the real members of the organization, he will definitely not let it go.
…
The next day, when Jiang Xia set out, as soon as he went out, he found someone walking towards him from next door.
——Haibara Ai seemed to have been waiting at the door for a long time. At this time, she followed him silently with a mini travel bag on her back.
The reason is that I am worried.
Jiang Xia was speechless for a moment, and suddenly remembered that in the original world line, Haibara Ai seemed to always say "Don't contact the organization" like this, but she always followed them with concern... This is the nature of human beings.
So Jiang Xia had a little tail behind him.
After passing through the Maori Detective Agency, there was one more thing.
Conan is here too.
Mao Lilan has a karate competition today and tomorrow, so she can't go out. She was worried about letting Conan and Jiang Xia go out alone, but Conan was really eager to see the men in black, so he lied to her and said that Dr. Agasa would also go. Dr. Agasa helped him cover up, and he successfully got permission to go out.
Jiang Xia had no pressure at all to take the two children out. After all, they were actually fake children. Not only did they not cry, but they could also help lure away ghosts.
Moreover, although Haibara Ai said that this matter was related to the organization, in Jiang Xia's impression, in the original world line, the organization did not interfere with this matter, so there shouldn't be any trouble.
It's not a big problem.
…
Three and a half hours later.
Jiang Xia was standing at the entrance of Izu Princess Hotel carrying his luggage, looking at a familiar blond figure standing in front of the counter from afar, lost in thought.
...Flags are something that can’t be set up casually.
It seems that the script is not omnipotent. This world where people always change the script without permission is really tiring.
Fortunately, although someone from the organization did come, that person was Toru Amuro...
In this scientific universe, undercover agents are not particularly vicious creatures and can even be classified as "good guys." If something goes wrong, it won't be too serious.
Of course, some avoidable troubles should be avoided in advance.
Thinking of this, while Toru Amuro was processing procedures at the counter with his back to the door, Jiang Xia quickly stepped forward and carried Haibara Ai, who was looking around vigilantly, into the corridor next to her.
