Chapter 478: Careless
Chapter 478: Careless
"December 22nd. I can't go on any longer! In fact, the reason I gave up, besides because of my deteriorating eyesight, was for the benefit of all mankind."
"On February 9, the deadline they gave me was approaching. I hid the unfinished software and the check they gave me in advance in my villa and planned to live a secluded life abroad. I knew very well that they would confirm the time and place of delivery in a few days."
"But that will be midnight five days from now. I must escape abroad before then!"
Five days later!
Conan was shocked. He finally found the key clue to track down those people!
He raised his hand and looked at his watch. February 9th was four days ago, and five days later would be between today and tomorrow's midnight!
If it was this time, the people in that organization should not know that Mr. Itakura Taku was dead, so Kudo Shinichi could do it...
A gleam of confidence flashed in Conan's eyes. This time he must rely on himself to find more things!
"Hey, Shinichi, it seems like the last part can also be highlighted."
Dr. Agasa looked at the screen and reminded.
"Ok?"
Conan was slightly stunned, then looked at the last blank space and skillfully highlighted it with the mouse.
Soon, another paragraph appeared on the civilians:
"February 10th. I wonder what those people want to do with this software? Recently, I keep thinking about the weird language used by the woman in my first phone call."
"At that time, I couldn't stand the woman's arrogant tone, so I immediately asked her: What exactly do you want to do?!"
"Who would have thought that she would actually answer me in English with a smile: We can be both of God and the devil. Since we're trying to raise the dead against the stream of time."
How could this be possible...
When Conan and Dr. Agasa saw this line of words, they both widened their eyes in disbelief.
This sentence translates to the most famous line in the organization in Detective Conan: We are both God and the devil. Because we want to reverse the flow of time and bring the dead back to life.
This sentence in Itakura Taku's diary, combined with the fact that Conan was getting smaller, instantly made Dr. Agasa and Conan think of a scary word - immortality.
That organization, what they are pursuing... is actually eternal life?
The Doctor and Conan couldn't imagine it.
Conan had thought a lot about the organization and considered many scenarios of confronting the organization.
However, they have never thought about what the organization's goal is, because they have always thought about this issue very simply, such as making money, gaining power...
However, they never thought that the purpose of this organization was eternal life!
Eternal life, immortality, decaying like the sun and the moon, these words are so frightening that people dare not look at them directly.
In ancient times, there were so many great emperors who, when they had the power of a country, all of them were willing to do the same.
Perhaps, many people have thought about what they would do if they were immortal.
However, in fact, no one has ever thought that they can really live forever, because that is impossible.
Now, there is an organization whose goal is immortality.
Conan looked at the words in front of him, and a chill rose in his heart.
The goals of a powerful organization must not be completely illusory, at least they believe they are qualified to pursue such goals.
It is unknown how long this organization has existed. They have recruited a large number of software engineers and have top scientists like Shiho Miyano. How strong are they? To what extent can their economy and military power reach?
What's more, what is even more terrifying is what happened to him and Haibara Ai. This medicine is said to be a poison, but is its purpose really to make poison?
If it is for the sake of eternal life, can it be said that the organization has achieved its goal?
Also, how much does the country know about the organization's purpose? How much does Bai Ma Song, who is also closely involved with the organization, know? How much do other countries in the world know?
Conan didn't dare to think about it any further.
There is no point in thinking too much. He just needs to know that he is Kudo Shinichi and he will go back to the time when he was Kudo Shinichi.
"Doctor, let's set off now."
"Where?"
"To Gunma Prefecture."
..........................................
Metropolitan Police Department
Bai Masong and Feng Jianyuya sat together in two adjacent seats in the conference room, looking carefully at a laptop in front of them.
Although it is winter in February in the island nation of Tokyo, the Metropolitan Police Department is still equipped with central air conditioning to ensure the warmth of its staff.
However, Yuya Kazami could not feel any warmth at this moment.
The air conditioning around me is too strong!
Yuya Kazami cried out helplessly in his heart. He didn't know why, but when he just drove back to the Metropolitan Police Department, Officer Hakuba, who seemed to be in a good mood, suddenly turned pale.
Moreover, the coldness on my body became more and more severe, and he pulled me and said coldly that he wanted to check the contents of the tape immediately.
Yuya Kazami, who had originally wanted to make a cup of coffee and take a break, could only accompany the bad-tempered Officer Hakuba with trepidation and obediently went to the conference room to check Taku Itakura's diary disk.
As for why Bai Ma Song is in a bad mood...
This has to do with some bad kid who got his hands on the disk.
Originally, Bai Masong felt that he had at least stopped Conan's action once again, which was a complete success.
As a result, when he was halfway there, he suddenly thought of a problem, that is, the travel bag was open at that time, and Conan arrived earlier than him, and he came here for the organization's business.
In other words, Conan will definitely notice this thing no matter what.
And because he arrived earlier, he must have already made some small arrangements, the most likely thing being to make a copy.
No wonder he felt something was a little wrong at the time. Although Conan was quite resistant, he was still cooperative overall, which was not in line with his previous image of fighting to the end.
Ugh!
After all, I was a little careless. I am usually ahead, but today I didn't get here first, so I can't tell the difference.
But it was okay, it didn't waste too much time.
