Chapter 2815 2827 [Intelligence Savior] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
"Sure enough, from the 10th day after the Kansai black-clad man came, Itakura Taku started writing this kind of hidden diary."
Conan couldn't hide his excitement as he looked at the newly emerged content:
[March 16
The pen on the table moved another 5 cm.
As expected, someone sneaked into my office...]
[April 15
I called the police and reported the room being broken into, but after asking about the situation, the police said that since nothing was stolen and there were no signs of intrusion on the doors and windows, they could not accept the case.]
[June 11
I changed the door locks and installed surveillance cameras. But it didn't work. It didn't work at all.
[July 6
Who is it? Come out!!]
[December 19
...I'm tired. If this continues, I'm probably going to be killed by them soon.]
[January 6
To get rid of this terrible day, I put a note in the drawer, asking the person who always sneaked into my house what he wanted.]
[January 8
I didn't expect to get a response so soon. The intruder took my paper and left a note with the word "OK" written in red and a suspicious phone number.
They said they would kill me if I told anyone about this.]
[January 23
I hesitated for a long time, but ultimately decided not to call the police and dial the phone number.
Unexpectedly, the person who answered the phone was a woman. Her tone and attitude were filled with an indescribable arrogance, like a queen.
I asked her what she wanted, and she told me to continue developing the half-finished software. If I could finish it within a year, she would buy it for a high price.
Sure enough, she was in the same group as the man in black who spoke with a Kansai accent and came to the office to see me before, and they made exactly the same demands.]
[February 13
We no longer talk on the phone, we only communicate via email.
After some negotiation, they said they could transfer the deposit to my account and promised that they would not continue to appear in my life while I was developing the software.]
"This organization's patience is terrifying. They torture people by sneaking into houses and deliberately changing some furnishings, day after day, like a guillotine hanging over their heads, forcing Itakura Taku to surrender and contact them." As a fellow scientist, Dr. Agasa felt scared: "If they do this to me, uh..."
He imagined that things in his house were moved a little bit every day, and then he realized... he didn't seem to have any reaction at all, because his tools were always thrown away after use, and were often blown to pieces by explosions from failed experiments.
Perhaps until one day, the man in black, whose patience has run out, points a gun at his head irritably and says, "We've given you many chances!" and then shoots him, he will not be able to realize what the other party is thinking.
"...I guess I have to place my tools carefully next time." Dr. Agasa was sweating. "Really? Can't we just say what we want to say? What if the person being threatened doesn't understand our hint?"
Conan looked at this eccentric guy speechlessly and continued to read the diary he had finally got back.
The next hidden diary entry was written almost a year later.
[December 22
No, I can't do it. I can't make this software.
In fact, the reason why I gave up developing it was not only because my eyesight was rapidly deteriorating, but also because it was related to the future of all mankind.]
"The future of all mankind?" Dr. Agasa couldn't help but ask again, "What kind of software is this? It's so important?"
"Don't make noise." Conan held his breath, "It's almost time for the diary of the last few days."
He flipped through the pages and finally found something that happened most recently.
[February 9
The transaction time agreed upon at the beginning is coming soon.
I hid the unfinished software and the deposit check they had given me next to the computer in the villa.
Now that things have come to this, all I can do is to flee overseas and live my secluded life before they see the contents of the software.]
Conan: “…” This guy is really experienced in “running away before the delivery date”. The only difference from the past is that he didn’t dare to collect a deposit this time.
"By the way, he can detect the slightest movement of things in his house, and when he heard the front desk say that something in his room was broken, he could immediately think that someone was looking for him based on that video... Itakura Taku's anti-reconnaissance and escape abilities are really good." Conan shook his head and sighed:
"If they hadn't focused all their attention on the Black Organization and ignored those three unremarkable clients, he wouldn't have died so easily. If he were still alive, we could have gotten more important information."
However, the dead cannot be resurrected. Conan felt regretful, but he could only sigh and continue to study Itakura Taku's diary.
[At midnight 5 days later, the organization will send me the time and location of the transaction by email. Before this time, I must successfully escape abroad.]
Conan: "..." Rest in peace, although you failed to escape, your diary has made a significant contribution to our cause of combating the Black Organization.
He mourned for Itakura Taku for a second, and then quickly thought about what he could do with this information: "The date of this diary entry is 4 days ago, and there are still three hours before the email is sent. What a coincidence."
Dr. Agasa was still not satisfied when he read the scientist's adventure story. He suddenly discovered something: "There seems to be some more words below."
"Hmm?" Conan immediately picked up the mouse and continued to select down. Sure enough, another line of words appeared.
He whispered:
[February 10
What on earth do they want to do with this software?
In fact, I couldn't help asking that question when I first spoke to that woman, and I still remember her mysterious and wonderful answer.
She chuckled and said in English, "We can be both of God and the Devil. Since we're trying to raise the dead against the stream of time."]
At the door of the study.
A few minutes ago.
Haibara Ai was worried all day because of Jiang Xia's encounter with Akai Shuichi, and she had no mood to take a leisurely bath. She finished her bath quickly and came out.
She was about to tell Dr. Agasa that the bathroom was empty and he could go take a shower, but when she walked to the table, she found that there was no one outside.
"Strange, you're not home at this time?"
Huibara Ai was a little confused. At this time, when she listened carefully, she suddenly found some movement in the study.
She walked over curiously and found that Conan had actually come. At this moment, the old man and the young boy were looking at the computer screen, muttering some strange words.
"It has a date, and it's written in the first person..." Huihara Ai muttered to herself, "Why does it sound so much like a diary?"
