Chapter 2817 2829 [FBI Summoner]
Dr. Agasa didn't think that being discovered by Jiang Xia was a big problem. In his opinion, compared to the neighbor kid he had held in his arms when he was a child, the danger obviously came from the other side of the darkness.
Dr. Agasa looked at the snow-covered road ahead and realized belatedly that something was wrong: "Shinichi, are we just going to go straight in like this? If they can make that organization patient and use both soft and hard tactics for a year or two, they should value that software very much."
"That's right!" Conan missed the point. "Based on my understanding of the Black Organization, if it was just an ordinary program, they would have pointed a gun at the unfortunate programmer and forced him to develop it. If he didn't agree, they would have killed him and replaced him with another one.
"But when facing Itakura Taku, they not only made careful arrangements based on his personality and patiently planned for nearly a year, but also honestly paid the expensive deposit and even agreed to Itakura Taku's request and never appeared around him.
"This series of actions can be described as cautious. To allow them to take such a stance, the software must be very important. It may be related to their most fundamental plan and conspiracy!"
"..." Dr. Agasa looked at the excited neighbor kid and sighed, "I mean, since the software is so important, what should we do if those men in black are lying in ambush near Itakura Taku's villa?"
"Don't worry." Conan laughed, "Didn't Mr. Itakura write in his diary that he had an agreement with the Black Organization, telling them not to monitor him, let alone to spy around him.
"He is a neurotic person who can immediately notice if something on the table is a few centimeters off. His personality is not good either. Since the deal has been reached, there is no need for the Black Organization to risk angering the other party and wait near his villa."
"That's true." Dr. Agasa felt that what this clever junior said made sense, but suddenly, he thought of another risk, "By the way, isn't Itakura Taku already dead? And it was you and Jiang Xia who solved the case. If this news is on the news... the people from that organization will definitely break into his residence immediately and take away all the information!"
Conan was listening to the real-time broadcast of the case with headphones on, and was flipping through the news in his hands: "Don't worry, we're lucky. From what I've observed, there has been no relevant news until now - the hotel where Itakura Taku works has a manager who is very good at public relations. When I passed by before, I heard him discussing with his employees that they would try to delay the exposure of the murder.
"And what a coincidence! After the case of Itakura Taku was resolved, Jiang Xia encountered another murder case. All the reporters who rushed to the vicinity of the hotel went to report on this incident. Look, the relevant news has been refreshed on the front page.
"Also, there's been a big case recently - the group of jewel thieves that caused a lot of trouble a while ago are still at large. Someone happened to witness them yesterday, so all the bigger radio stations are reporting on this incident now."
In short, Conan is confident that he can get the mysterious unfinished software before Itakura Taku's death makes the news.
"Compared to this..." Conan continued to listen to the news with headphones on, muttering to Dr. Agasa, "I care more about the last paragraph of the diary, 'We are God and devil, because we want to reverse the flow of time and resurrect the dead.'"
Dr. Agasa raised the scientist's question: "It's so mysterious, and I don't know what it means - how can time be reversed? How can the dead be resurrected?"
Conan touched his chin: "I was wondering if this purpose is related to the medicine made by Huiyuan."
Dr. Agasa waved his hands repeatedly: "Ai can't make that kind of zombie medicine, you think too much."
Conan tried hard to imagine, but failed, so he could only sigh: "I really want to find their boss right away and ask him about it... But we have to eat one bite at a time, so we should rush to Gunma County and get the software from Itakura Taku."
…
When Conan was struggling to find the truth.
The other side.
Haibara Ai dyed her hair black using the temporary hair dye developed by Dr. Agasa, put on her coat again, and stood on tiptoe by the window to look out.
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, staring at the snowflakes falling from the sky, suddenly, through the misty window, Haibara Ai saw a car with good performance squeak and stop in front of Dr. Agasa's house.
Huihara Ai looked at it in confusion, and suddenly saw the passenger window lowered. Jiang Xia was sitting in the car, waving at her.
"!" Huibara Ai understood and hurried out, jogging all the way over and climbed into the back seat.
As soon as she got in the car, she felt something was wrong. When she closed the door habitually, she saw the light-colored hair on the driver's side that was higher than the back of the seat. She was shocked: Okiya Subaru? Why is this graduate student with the aura of the organization here?
While wondering, she tried to pretend to be a primary school student, took out a pair of plain glasses from her pocket, and handed them to Jiang Xia: "Brother Jiang Xia, this is what you forgot to bring just now."
Jiang Xia lowered his head and fiddled with it, and a signal dot soon appeared on the glasses - this pair of glasses is a backup tracking mirror made by Dr. Agasa. In addition to tracking the transmitter, it can also be used to track Conan's glasses.
In other words, this signal point is where Conan is now.
"They went in the direction of Gunma Prefecture." Jiang Xia turned to look at Okiya Subaru and opened the door while speaking, "Mr. Okiya, can you take us to the station..."
"There are no buses going to Gunma Prefecture at this time." Okiya Subaru kept smiling, "I have nothing to do anyway, so I'll take you there."
Haibara Ai looked at the rearview mirror: “…” This guy is really enthusiastic, but I don’t know why his expression seems a little distorted... Well, it must be an illusion caused by the darkness.
Jiang Xia did not refuse the graduate student's kindness, so soon, a car started again and drove to the suburbs.
…
As they walked, Subaru Okiya couldn't help but sigh quietly.
Recently, there have been kidnappings, explosions, kidnappings and explosions on buses... This made him finally unable to resist using a car after taking the bus for a while - although there is a possibility that some outlaws may install bombs, as long as it is equipped with a surveillance camera, the safety will be greatly improved.
Anyway, today was the same. Subaru Okiya drove to school to meet his teacher, and was dragged by his teacher to a family reunion, where he ate a meal with his classmates and teachers with trepidation.
The good news is that until the end of the dinner, no one suddenly fell to the ground holding their throat and wailing, and everyone returned alive.
And the bad news is... on the way back, he looked up inadvertently and saw Jiang Xia running hurriedly on the street in the heavy snow.
Okiya Subaru: "..."
