Conan was in high spirits, just as he was about to use Mouri Kogoro's voice to call the remaining two clients who went to the office today to inquire about the location of Itakura Taku's villa.
Behind him, Dr. Ali looked at the computer screen and suddenly said:
"Huh? There seems to be hidden text underneath the last diary entry."
Am I too impatient, and my insight is actually worse than that of a doctor... Conan was shocked, and he reflected deeply for two seconds, then dragged the mouse to select the white text:
[December 10, I wonder what those people want this software to do? Recently, I always think of the incredible words used by that woman on the phone. At that time, I suppressed my emotions for too long and couldn't control my emotions, so I couldn't help but ask her, "What do you want to do?" That woman He actually smiled and answered me in English...
We can be both of God and the we're trying to raise the dead, against the stream of time...]
"No, that's right..." Dr. A Li was shocked.
The heavy atmosphere created by the words made Conan read silently three or four times before he couldn't help but murmur:
"We are both gods and demons because..."
"We have to go against the flow of time..." Haihara Ai wiped his wet hair with a towel and suddenly appeared behind the two of them.
Conan and Dr. A Li turned back in surprise, and then looked away from her, looking at Ye Gengyi who appeared at the door without knowing when he was holding coffee.
"Resurrection of the dead..."
Listening to that calm voice reaching my ears.
Hui Yuan Ai was also shocked.
However, due to the lack of relevant information about Itakura Zhuo and the black organization, she was not frightened by the text on the computer screen, but purely by Ye Gengyi's elusiveness.
"Go to the kitchen to make coffee. If you hear a noise here, come and take a look..."
Facing the gazes of the three people, Ye Gengyi explained casually, then his eyes returned to the screen: "Is that a manuscript for a certain game?"
"It looks like a magical content with a magic user appearing." Haihara Ai commented.
"Ah, yes...yes..."
Dr. A Li was a little nervous and guilty, and subconsciously covered the screen with his body: "Because I recently wanted to make a game like this, I searched for similar ones on the Internet..."
"That's right," Conan immediately agreed, "I received a call from the doctor and came over to help provide some reference advice."
"That's it..."
Haibara Ai didn't think too much, and as the only hub of identity for both parties in the family, it was inconvenient for her to say anything in this situation.
Ye Geng took a sip of his coffee and did not comment further on the text on the screen.
From the moment the camera installed on the roof spotted the young detective approaching, he thought that a certain loli who was angry with him and came out of the basement might actually see Itakura Taku's diary by chance.
Therefore, it is true that he came out to make coffee, and it is true that he also caused trouble and interfered with the information sharing between Conan and Haiyuan.
It's rare that Gin can't come back from abroad. It would be bad if this girl notices something unusual and stops Conan's death-seeking behavior.
After all, without this good old man interfering from time to time, that woman from Belmode might not necessarily have too many scruples...
Thinking about it, Ye Gengyi yawned, turned around and walked towards the basement without saying anything else.
Haibara Ai was also not interested in game software. Because she was still suffering from a cold, she said she was going to bed and left Dr. Ali's room.
Watching the two people's backs.
Conan and Dr. Ali acted in unison, first taking a long breath, and then raising their hands to wipe away the cold sweat on their temples.
9pm.
After calling Naito Dinghei and asking about the location of Itakura Taku's villa, Dr. Agas drove Conan to Gunma Prefecture.
Along the way, Dr. Ali was still worried whether news of Itakura Taku's death would suddenly appear in the news or on the radio, causing their plan to fall short.
On the other hand, Conan, who was listening to the news about the jewel robbers being broadcast on the radio, said in relief:
"Don't worry, thanks to Brother Sarada's suggestion, the Megure Police Department seems to be planning to reshape the image of the police after the bombing. If nothing else, the news about Itakura Taku will not be available until tomorrow morning at the earliest. Play…”
Say so.
But the shocking words "against the flow of time, bringing the dead back to life" still made him unable to calm down for a long time.
The car drove for 3 hours.
Looking at the villa in front of him, Conan got rid of distracting thoughts and stopped thinking wildly.
The key to the door was hidden under the flowerpot next to the stairs, and the software and checks were casually placed in the drawer next to the computer, just like what was written in the diary.
The waiting time was difficult.
Especially when faced with the email that arrived at 0 o'clock on time and required a password to open, otherwise it would be deleted within 10 seconds, Conan and Dr. A Li panicked.
Ring ring ring! Ring ring ring!
The clear and sweet sound of the phone echoed in the room, breaking the deathly silence.
Neither of them answered.
Ten seconds later.
Vodka's deep voice came from the answering machine: "Hey, what's the matter? Are you there? Itakura! Answer the phone for me quickly!"
Conan instantly realized that the email not only had a self-destruct function, but might even send their recipient address when they chose to receive it.
In other words, the other party is likely to already know that they are in this villa!
Wait, maybe the people from that organization are hiding near this villa and secretly monitoring the place... Conan panicked.
"Hey, talk! I know you are in the villa, answer the phone for me quickly! Itakura, you guy..."
On the answering machine, the voice calling for vodka became more and more impatient.
However, it was these "Itakura" sounds that gave Conan a hint of a turning point.
No, if they were nearby, even if they couldn't see clearly that it was an old man and a child who entered the villa because of the darkness, it shouldn't have been so long and no one had come to check on the situation, unless...
As soon as the idea came to mind, Conan directly adjusted the bow-tie voice changer to the voice of Taku Itakura that he heard in the video, and then answered the phone:
"Ah, I'm so sorry. It's really hard to find the phone in the dark. It seems there's a power outage here due to the snowstorm. Oh, by the way, the email just now couldn't be opened because of this."
Hey, hey... Dr. A Li was startled, and his brain almost went blank.
After Conan used his movements to signal him to calm down, he wrote the words "Turn on the lights" on the paper while using his fairly excellent acting skills to show off Taku Itakura's cautious character.
The routine goes out behind the eyes and there is no organization nearby.
Conan immediately said: "There is no way, I can't use the computer here, why don't you just tell me the time and place to hand over the software to you."
Vodka was not suspicious and sneered: "Humph, listen up, I will only say it once..."
