Chapter 245

During the time when Xingchuan and Ming were locked in the lounge, unexpected changes occurred in the outside world.

Since Conan received repeated warnings from Hoshikawa Kazuaki and Amuro Toru, he did not act as active as before at the crime scene. He finally suppressed his strong desire to explore and followed Mao Lilan like an ordinary child. Mao Lilan looked over frequently, thinking that this child suddenly stopped being naughty because he was scared.

But since he found the first crime scene where the victim was killed, Conan frowned in worry. He found that not only was Hoshikawa and Akira, the first suspect, not there, but even Amuro Toru, who had just protected him from the eyes of the organization members, was nowhere to be seen.

Could it be that something happened to Xingchuan and Ming?

Conan was startled, and the thought that he had suppressed before came to his mind again. Could it be that the organization really planned to take action against Hoshikawa and Akira today? So this case was indeed done by the organization again! But why did Mr. Amuro appear here?

Could it be that... he was the one who attacked Hoshikawa and Akira? Wait, this is too bad! Once Hoshikawa and Akira successfully save themselves, or Mr. Amuro takes the opportunity to let them go, then Mr. Amuro's undercover identity will be exposed, right? Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation, Mr. Amuro will definitely do his best.

Is the situation that Xingchuan and Ming are facing this time such a terrible one?

Conan's forehead was sweating. He took out his phone again and checked it. There was still no reply from Mr. Akai. He didn't know who Mr. Akai had left to save, and when he would come back. But the situation of Hoshikawa and Akira was really urgent. If no one could break the situation, wouldn't it be the end of Hoshikawa and Akira?

No! I can't stay here any longer! I have to do something to divert the organization's attention.

Conan made up his mind, and determination flashed in his blue eyes. He took a few steps back silently while Mouri Ran was not paying attention, then turned around and ran away without a trace.

Nishizono Tadahiko was forced to flee by Gin's pursuit. His car's fuel tank exploded during his escape, but he was alert enough to roll out of the cab just before the explosion, and luckily fell from the overpass into a large truck passing by on the lane below. Then, before Gin found him, he mixed into the crowd under the cover of cargo, and finally hid in a nearby abandoned processing plant that had temporarily stopped working.

I thought that after this chase, Gin would give up chasing him because he lost his target. Nishizono Tadahiko hid behind an unknown machine in the processing plant to take a breath and rest, but he didn't expect Kagano Satoshi's warning to come the next second.

"Ahhh, Officer Nishihara, be careful! Gin has already found the place where you got off the two trucks, and is starting to search everywhere! I have already notified Akai Shuichi to bring a sniper rifle to support you, but before the support arrives, Officer Nishihara, you must be careful and hold on!"

Nishizono Tadahiko's heart tightened, and he suddenly felt that his aching muscles began to hurt more. He had to force himself to get up and erase all traces of his entry into the factory, and then find a corner that was secluded enough to hide himself.

Everything that can be done has been done. Whether I can survive today depends on who of Akai Shuichi and Gin can arrive first.

Outside the server room of the hotel building, Morobu Jingguang carefully and quickly pried open the locked door, making no sound. He looked inside through the narrow glass window on the door and saw that the researcher had already taken out the laptop he brought with him and was leisurely looking for a suitable port on the server to connect his computer.

No matter how good his mental state was, Zhu Fu Jingguang couldn't help but feel anxious at this moment. He exerted force with his hand, and with a "click", the door lock opened.

"Hmm? What's that sound?"

After all, the researcher worked in an organization where he could face danger at any time. Even if he was just a powerless technician, he still had some basic alertness and awareness of danger. He turned his head alertly the moment he heard the movement, but his hands sped up a bit as a conditioned reflex.

At this point, Morobushi Kagemitsu no longer needed to hide. His first priority was to control the researcher and prevent him from activating the artificial intelligence. Morobushi Kagemitsu first used an invisible headset to quickly instruct Kagano Satoshi to change the computer room surveillance during this period, then he rushed out from behind a row of computer mainframes by the door and controlled the researcher.

The researcher was pressed on the dusty table and yelled angrily: "Where did you come from, maintenance worker? Do you know that I am a VIP guest of the hotel? If you offend me, you will be complained!"

However, Morobushi Jingguang quickly took out a pair of handcuffs from his waist and handcuffed his hands behind his back. Then he ignored him and immediately went to the laptop and plugged in the connection cable that had been prepared.

Satoshi Kagino once said that if he had access to the researcher's notebook, he could crawl through the network, use the AI ​​activation program in the notebook, find the core data of the AI ​​developed by the organization and block it. Even if he couldn't completely destroy the AI, at least he could prevent the organization from using AI for evil for a period of time.

And it was precisely because of this that Morobushi Kagemitsu allowed Kagamino Satoshi to control his mobile phone during this operation, and as soon as he found the laptop, he connected the phone to the computer, so that Kagamino Satoshi could immediately start blocking the artificial intelligence.

The iconic cheers of Satoshi Kagino rang out from the invisible earphones: "Great! I found it after all. I knew Mr. Morobushi was the best! How could a little researcher escape Mr. Morobushi's clutches?"

The corners of Morobushi Kagemitsu's mouth twitched, and he ignored Kagano Satoshi's inappropriate words and reminded him, "Quickly check to see if the startup program has been activated."

"Okay! Let me check it out. The speed is really slow. Wait... what's going on? Why is there a virus hidden in it? The server was instantly infected? Oh no, the startup program has been activated!"

Zhu Fu Jingguang's expression suddenly changed.

The next moment, the entire computer room fell into a weird chaos. The lights above began to flicker uncontrollably, the rows of computer cases on the mainframe racks began to emit continuous alarm sounds, the indicator lights kept flashing, and finally a series of electric sparks even burst out from the connection points of the lines!

At the same time, the entire hotel building fell into darkness at the same time. The flashing neon lights on the hotel sign lost their color, and then the lights and billboards of nearby buildings, as well as all the machines and equipment that relied on electricity to operate, also stopped working at the same time.

People went from being surprised to being anxious, and began to panic about this change. However, the scope of the impact was still expanding. As people screamed, hospitals and schools, shopping malls and residential areas, and even signal towers stopped working. Even the abandoned processing plant where Tadahiko Nishizono was hiding was plunged into darkness in an instant.

Morofushi Jingguang stood in the spark-filled computer room, at a loss as to what to do. The researcher who was handcuffed and thrown aside muttered in a trance, "The program has been activated, and the artificial intelligence will be activated soon!"

Only Kagino Satoshi was still shouting in Morobushi Keimitsu's invisible earphone: "Go! I will never be defeated by an artificial intelligence!"

The author has something to say:

I wish you all a happy new year and all your wishes come true.

All the articles I follow are not bad (laughs)
