Organize calls?
Qin Zhibo looked around, walked to the corner of the police station parking lot, and then answered the phone.
"Hey?"
"Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"
On the other side of the phone, came Gin Jiu's cold questioning voice.
"There were people nearby just now, and they found a quiet place." Qin Zhibo's tone was neither humble nor overbearing.
"Humph—" Gin Jiu snorted coldly, and said, "Tomorrow at 11 o'clock in the evening, the alley on the east side of the Ginza store near Kanqiao Station."
"understood."
beep-
As soon as Qin Zhibo agreed, Qin Jiu immediately hung up the phone, as if he was afraid of being traced back to the calling address.
It is also Gin's consistent style not to explain the task content on the phone, and to use the most concise language.
Qin Zhibo silently turned on the navigator in his heart, looking for the place Qin Jiu said.
On the huge electronic map, Kanbashi Station is also located in Tokyo, just along the Toto Metro Line, four stations away from Mihua Station.
It's just that on the electronic map, the text display of the place name of Kanqiao Station is semi-transparent.
This means that the public place is under construction and may not be accessible normally.
A station under construction?
Isn't Gin trying to launch a terrorist attack?
In Qin Zhibo's impression, many international terrorist organizations like to blow up some construction sites, which can spread terrorism without angering the countries involved.
But when you think about it carefully, this doesn't quite match the low-key style of the black organization.
The goal pursued by the black organization seems to be an older and more primitive kind of terror.
Gunma County, deep in the mountains.
A yellow Beetle dressed in silver was driving tremblingly on the mountain road.
Dr. Ali and Conan, the old and the young, sat in the main and co-pilot seats, with worried expressions on their faces.
In order for this "transaction" to proceed smoothly, the first thing to ensure is that the other party does not know the news of Itakura Taku's murder.
Otherwise, as long as the other party knows the news of Itakura Zhuo's murder, he will naturally not be so stupid as to make a deal with a "ghost".
Fortunately, Itakura Zhuo's case happened in the evening. According to the practice of the Metropolitan Police Department, this information will not be announced until tomorrow morning at least.
But just in case, Conan still has a portable radio on his ear and monitors the radio all the time.
The real-time news that is currently the most popular broadcast is a jewel thief who robbed a jewelry store. The two are currently on the run in Gunma County.
Jewel Thief?
The first time he heard this word, Conan's eyes changed, and he thought it was that old opponent—Kaitou Kidd again.
But when they heard that the other party was two people, they were instantly discouraged like a football shot out of a football belt.
Ordinary gem thieves can't arouse Conan's interest too much.
Besides, now is the critical moment for the confrontation with the suspected black organization. Although the jewel thief is escaping in Gunma County, there is no need to be a vigilante at this time.
Conan crossed his arms and discussed with a serious face.
"Actually, what I care most about is the last sentence in the diary. We can not only be gods, but also demons, because we want to reverse the torrent of time and bring the dead back to life."
"Doctor, are you talking about the medicine made by Huiyuan?"
Upon hearing this, Dr. A Li, who has never believed in pseudoscience, gave a slight sideways glance, and denied, "How is this possible? You are not zombies."
Conan: "."
In fact, it reminded Conan of the drug A developed by Haibara Ai when he was working for the organization, and it was also because Haibara Ai had said similar things.
Shortly after Huiyuan abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, there was a football field hijacking incident.
In that incident, Haibara Ai once said meaningfully, "There is no way for a person to defy the torrent of time. If you insist on distorting time, you will be punished."
What does it mean to defy the torrent of time?
What kind of punishment was it?
The old riddler Hui Yuanai didn't say anything about the above.
In fact, not only that, Haibara Ai did not reveal many secrets about the black organization, which made Conan, who was eager to grow bigger, anxious and helpless.
Sometimes, Conan really wants to shout aloud.
Riddler get out of Rice Flower!
But if you think carefully about the words of Hui Yuanai and the woman, you can also feel that there are differences between the words of the two.
In the mouth of the mysterious woman talking to Itakura Zhuo, the most important thing is the last "resurrection of the dead."
Literally understood, what women and the forces behind them want to do seems to be a taboo recognized by scientists all over the world.
The dead cannot be resurrected.
Just as continuous linear time is irreversible.
But what about another way of thinking?
Conan suddenly thought of another English interpretation that Qin Zhibo had blurted out in the hotel room—the awakening of the long sleeper.
If it is impossible to revive the dead, then it is more reliable to revive the long-sleeper.
Conan remembered reading in a science magazine that an American scholar named "Robert Ettinger" had put forward a crazy hypothesis.
If the human body is sealed in a container filled with liquid nitrogen and frozen, then when the technology is developed in the future, it is very likely that the frozen person will be resurrected.
Robert Ettinger not only proposed such a hypothesis, but also established an organization to accept commissions for freezing human bodies.
It's just that because no one can be sure what the future technology will look like, this organization is currently only "freezing" and not "resurrecting".
Aiming at this technology, the academic community has also conducted extensive discussions on it, with both approval and opposition.
A Russian company believes that the operation of the brain is similar to the hard drive of a computer, and the contents inside can be frozen and stored.
In the future, scientists can read data from the frozen brain, connect it and implant it into a new carrier, which can be a human body or a computer.
If you think about it this way, the woman's words about "resurrection of the dead" and the software developed by Itakura Taku that she wants to obtain seem to be just connected.
Imagine, if this technology is really realized, it would be a very great technology.
Human beings' obsession with longevity can be traced back to the time of Qin Shihuang in ancient China.
At that time, Xu Fu traveled east to the current Sea of Japan to seek overseas elixir for longevity, and he took the route of immortality through medicine.
For quite a long time afterwards, Changsheng basically took the drug route, until the development of modern surgery, some other routes were added.
For example, in the early 19th century, there was a medical student at an American university who was conducting research on "drug + surgery" resurrection of the dead, which caused extremely bad social impact at the time.
Later, the medical student disappeared inexplicably. Some people said that he died of an experimental accident.
And his experience was also made into a B-level horror film decades later and put on the big screen.
However, it is said that more than 20 years ago, a couple of scientists resumed the research of the medical student decades ago, so they were exposed.
In today's formalized scientific world, such an approach is naturally unorthodox and unethical.
The couple were expelled from the scientific community because of this, and their names were not left behind.
But one of the couple is Japanese.
——The above are all Conan saw by chance in a certain interesting science magazine.
Fun-oriented content is mainly to attract readers, and it will be less rigorous.
For example, the last mentioned couple expelled by the scientific community, why must there be a Japanese among them?
Why not Americans and Germans?
How can there be such a coincidence in the world?
Conan thinks that the real situation should be that the editor of the magazine thinks that adding a Japanese at the end will increase the sense of substitution for readers in his country.
After reading it, readers will sigh "So that's the case" and "We Japanese are really amazing!"
But right now, these interesting contents have provided Conan with a lot of thinking.
As women say, they are both gods and devils, and the application of resurrection is also a double-edged sword.
The reason why human society can maintain a basic balance depends on the alternation of birth, old age, sickness and death, so as to achieve the purpose of constant shuffling and elimination.
Once this balancing mechanism is eliminated, the high-pressure society depicted in many science fiction novels is likely to form.
Wealth accumulates more and more, and it will never flow to other people.
Bad guys can always exist as long as they have wealth.
The resurrection of the dead is indeed a technology that can act as both a god and a devil.
If the woman's goal is really this kind of resurrection of the dead, then behind her is a large organization that saves lives and heals the wounded?
Conan shook his head, not sure.
If it is a formal institution, research should be conducted aboveboard, not in a criminal manner.
This unscrupulous behavior style made Conan more willing to believe that the supporter behind all these actions was a bad person.
Once the bad guys have this technology, the consequences will be disastrous.
So, what does Itakura Taku mean by "for the well-being of all mankind"?
While Conan was brainstorming, the turbulence of the Beetle gradually weakened until it stopped completely.
A villa stands tall in the wind and snow outside the car window, and a deadly and disturbing atmosphere wafts from the dark doors and windows.
Dr. Ali and Conan in the car waited and watched for a while, only to get out of the car when they found that there was no movement.
Walking to the main entrance of the villa, Conan deduced where the key was hidden based on the memory of reading the diary during the day, and successfully found it.
Pushing open the door of the villa, a slightly decayed atmosphere permeates the wooden structure of the villa.
Conan was not a fool of Di Dan, he didn't choose to turn on the light, but walked to the computer desk in the living room in the dark, and saw the envelope and software CD on the table in a straight line.
Open the envelope, and inside is a large check.
According to Itakura Takuo's diary, the check and the unfinished software must be handed over to the other party together. This is also because he does not want the other party to jump the wall in a hurry and track him down to go abroad.
That is
"It seems that this is the system software that group of people are trying to get, but they probably wouldn't have imagined that this thing is placed in this place generously."
Conan put the software and the check aside first, turned around and sat on the chair, and turned on the computer.
It will be twelve o'clock at midnight, according to Itakura Zhuo's diary, this is the time when they will meet next time.
Time passed by, and the page of the e-mail suddenly changed at a certain moment.
A progress bar with a 10-second countdown pops up with an empty box to enter the password.
Seeing this, both Conan and Dr. Ali were taken aback.
The nervous little hand holding the mouse was at a loss for a moment and could only slide.
After reacting, 10 seconds have passed, and the e-mail just sent is automatically deleted.
"hateful!"
"They have already set the setting that if you don't open the email immediately, it will be automatically deleted!"
Only then did Conan understand why even the email contact method had to be agreed in advance.
Conan was shocked, and hurriedly discussed with Dr. Ali whether there is a technical solution to this situation.
But Dr. Ali is not very knowledgeable in computer technology, and he also said that he is powerless.
"It would be great if there was Noah's Ark at this time."
Although Noah's Ark is an artificial intelligence, thanks to its deep learning algorithm mechanism, it can do many things that only hackers can do.
Just when Conan was thinking nervously about how to deal with the next email, the landline behind him rang.
The sound of jingling bells was like a conjuring song in the silent room, urging the old and the young to cast their terrified gazes.
"Sorry, the master is out now, if"
The landline's automatic answer ended, and a familiar voice came from the phone.
"Hello? What's wrong?"
Just this questioning tone made Conan's pupils dilate instantly.
Can't go wrong!This is the sound of vodka!
It really is a black organization that connects with Itakura Zhuo!
At such a severe moment, the corner of Conan's mouth raised, showing an unyielding smile in the face of challenges.
The vodka on the other side of the phone is still urging.
"You're supposed to be right there?"
"Don't hide in there without making a sound, I know you're at home!"
Vodka's tone suddenly became sharp, and the displeasure tone already revealed a trace of murderous intent.
There was a drop of cold sweat on Conan's forehead, and then he took out the bowknot voice changer in his collar, relying on the memory of Taku Itakura's voice in the video during the day, coupled with absolute pitch, he quickly adjusted the dial on it.
After adjusting, he immediately picked up the phone receiver.
"Sorry, it's too dark here, I couldn't find where the phone was for a while."
"I think the circuit of the villa was probably broken by the wind and snow outside, so I didn't open the email you sent just now."
Itakura Zhuo's voice came out through the bow, and Conan's nonchalant tone actually fooled the vodka.
"Who told you to be in that kind of mountain where the birds don't shit?" Vodka suddenly said, "No, since the power has been cut off, why did you switch to the phone recording just now?"
Conan didn't pause at all, and explained skillfully again: "There are often power outages here when it snows, so I always use the kind of phones with batteries."
"So that's how it is." Vodka accepted the explanation with a naive face.
The next step is to decide where to trade.
Since Conan had just mentioned the power outage and was unable to receive emails, Vodka could only tell the transaction address by phone.
"I'll just say it once, you heard me clearly."
"You should know the Kanbashi Station that is under construction, right? It's now merged with the Toto Subway, and it's even more impressive."
"Tomorrow at twelve o'clock in the morning, you will wait for me in front of No. 0032 of the coin-operated iron cabinet on the bottom floor."
"When the time comes, don't forget to bring that important software with you."
On the rooftop, Vodka whimpered and announced the location of the transaction.
Would be very disappointed if gin was on the side.
This little brother, Bai has followed him for so long.
